The Wonderful Way

Chapter 9 A Long Journey

In a small waterfall pool on a cliff, stood a ten-year-old girl. The girl's skin was as creamy, shining brightly with water droplets in the sun.

The vermilion lips are pursed under the small upturned nose, the moth eyebrows are slightly furrowed, the big and lively peach blossom eyes have been staring at the swimming fish in the pool, standing quietly with restrained breath, as if waiting for the right time.

Just when the fish got used to the girl's existence and swam around her, a few sharp and unmarked water arrows shot straight into the fish's head, and they were dragged ashore by the charge of materialism. Wagging his tail and struggling.

This young girl is exactly Chu Miao who has been living in this forest for five years. She has grown up from a child to the young girl she is today. Chu Miao, who is alone, has suffered countless times.

At this time, she was catching fish in the small stall. In the past few years, Chu Miao had caught all the rabbits in the forest, and later she even became cautious when going out with rabbits.

And the small cave that could accommodate her at the beginning was no longer able to accommodate her, so Chu Miao had no choice but to go to a further place, and came to this small waterfall and opened up a small cave to live in.

Chu Miao was already a monk at the sixth level of Qi training, and had practiced all the five elements spells she had learned in her previous life when she was at the fifth level of Qi training.

Now even if wandering around in the forest, they are no longer completely powerless to protect themselves, and there are many more wild animals that can be caught.

Even shortly after the fifth level of Qi training, he went too deep into the forest and encountered a Gale Wolf in the middle of the first level, and was almost slapped to death with one claw, and finally exhausted all his spiritual power to kill it.

Chu Miao felt that the impurities in the meat of monster beasts were indeed less than those of ordinary beasts, so she went to that place a few times after practicing the sixth level of Qi, but she never found any traces of other monsters.

So I had no choice but to continue to look for wild fruits and catch fish in the water pool.

Chu Miao had already practiced several low-level five-element spells to the extreme. Since she was a Lei Lingen, she needed to transform her aura to learn five-element spells.

It was very difficult to practice for a while, but fortunately, the understanding of spells in the previous life was still there, so I finally managed to cast several spells instantly when I was practicing on the sixth level.

The five-element spell is to condense the spiritual power of the five attributes of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth into a physical entity to attack, so there is no specific form.

When Chu Miao first condensed the fire-type and gold-type spiritual power into a knife, she failed to control the thunder spirit power in her body, and chopped herself until the outside was scorched and the inside was tender, and her hair exploded.

After countless trials and practices, he was able to control Lei Lingli when he was not using it, and convert it into the spirit power he wanted.

While Chu Miao lit a fire and prepared to grill the fish, she thought that it was time to get out of the woods now.

……

Chu Miao wore the clothes she found in the boy's storage bag a few years ago, tied a bun on her head, inserted her mother's seemingly inconspicuous spirit hairpin on her head, and walked towards a place where there were few trees.

After walking for several days, Chu Miao finally found the way down the mountain at dusk. There was a small town at the foot of the mountain, so Chu Miao went straight to the town without further delay.

When she arrived in the small town, Chu Miao found that she didn't have the gold and silver treasures in the world, so she had to find a pawnshop and sell a spirit bead, which was exchanged for a lot of silver.

After finding a small inn to settle down, Chu Miao went to the tea shop to find out where it was.

After sitting in the tea shop for a while, I realized that this place is called Que Town, which belongs to the territory of Fen Kingdom, not far from Linyang City, the capital of Fen Kingdom.

Chu Miao remembered that her father had said before that she would take her to Linyang City, which was very close to UFO City, a smaller city of cultivating immortals, and most of the monks who came and went were low-level, so it was considered safe.

Hearing that this place was far away from Pei Kingdom, Chu Miao was in a trance for a while, it turned out that her father brought her to a place close to the Immortal Cultivation City while dragging her seriously injured body.

Thinking about it, if he hadn't really been unable to hold on, he would probably have desperately sent himself to Xiuxian City before leaving.

When I was feeling a little sad, I suddenly heard a crisp voice from the side, "Fellow Daoist? Are you going to Linyang? Can we be a companion?"

Chu Miao looked up, and saw a Qi training fifth-level monk who was also a woman disguised as a man standing in front of the table, with clear eyebrows and clear eyes, looking at her with a smile.

Seeing that Chu Miao looked at her silently, the 15-year-old girl pulled up a small stool and sat down, and said to Chu Miao familiarly, "My name is Mu Xiaodie, and I'm a casual cultivator. How about you?"

Seeing that the girl sat down by herself, Chu Miao couldn't help but say nothing, so she replied casually, "My name is Chu Miao, and I'm also a casual cultivator."

"Then you are going to Linyang? Let's go together, okay? I'm not a bad person. I came to Que Town to look for my brother, but I didn't find anyone. I planned to go to UFO City by the way. I saw that you were also a single woman." Men's clothes, I just want to ask."

Chu Miao's destination is also UFO City, as long as she goes on the road, she will meet her sooner or later, not to mention the girl doesn't look annoying, and the two of them are indeed much safer walking together, so she nodded and said:
"I'm going to UFO City, when will Fellow Daoist Mu plan to leave?"

Seeing that Chu Miao agreed, Mu Xiaodie was also very happy: "I can do it, how about Fellow Daoist Chu? If we go to Linyang by carriage, it will take at least six or seven days to stop and go. When we arrive in Linyang, we will walk on the mountain road for a few days. You can reach the outside of UFO City."

Chu Miao thought that the carriage was not fast in the first place, not to mention that she had to stop for a rest on the way, so she could go buy some food on the way today, and leave early tomorrow morning.

After telling Mu Xiaodie about her preparations, Mu Xiaodie volunteered to take Chu Miao to several shops and bought a lot of delicate and delicious snacks.

Chu Miao also wanted to buy some change of clothes. After all, the clothes on her body were worn by others, and she was still a little uncomfortable.

Mu Xiaodie took Chu Miao to a clothing store, and the two said goodbye to each other after buying a few sets of skirts, and agreed to meet at the carriage shop tomorrow morning.

After returning to the inn, Chu Miao took a hot bath happily. There was no equipment to boil water in the mountains and forests, so she could only bathe in cold water in spring, summer, autumn and winter.

After washing, I felt a lot more comfortable. I put on a bright yellow skirt, tied it with a braid and hung it on the side, and looked left and right in the condensed mirror. I was very satisfied.

Although most of the monks have good looks and shouldn't pay too much attention to their appearance, but as a female nun, there is no one who doesn't want to look good.

In the previous life, I was more like my father, he could only be regarded as handsome and heroic, although he was not ugly, he was inevitably a little regretful.

Who knows that this life has followed the advantages of her parents and is much better-looking than her previous life, Chu Miao couldn't help being happy.

In the early morning of the second day, Chu Miao and Mu Xiaodie, who also changed back into women's clothes, hired a carriage and headed towards Linyang City.

Mu Xiaodie kept talking along the way, and Chu Miao only occasionally replied a few words, and didn't talk too much about herself.

Only knowing that his parents died young, he picked up a book and a storage bag in the woods before starting to practice.

I also know that Mu Xiaodie's parents are Qi training monks, and they gave birth to two children, her and her younger brother, but only she has three spiritual roots, and her younger brother was sent to a common family to be raised.

Two years ago, Mu Xiaodie's parents went out to practice and fell, so she thought to come to find her younger brother when she reached the fifth level of Qi training.

When I came to Que Town, I found that the family that adopted my younger brother had already moved to Linyang, so I thought about going to Linyang to look for it, and then take a stroll in UFO City.

The carriage traveled during the day, and at dusk they found an open space to rest, and the two of them meditated and practiced in the carriage.

Following the swaying carriage and Mu Xiaodie's crisp voice, Chu Miao saw the majestic ancient city wall in the distance from the carriage window.

The word "Linyang" above the city gate also gradually became larger, and Chu Miao was finally one step closer to the world of cultivating immortals.
