Fairy, Please Let Me Explain - #598 - Chapter 566 Xifeng Mountain
The blue sky is thousands of miles away, and the only green car on the long and narrow road is moving slowly. The heavy wheels run over the ice and snow, splashing snow mist, and the years are quiet.
Xu Yuan stretched lazily, leaned on the soft bed, opened the car window, and looked at both sides of the official road.
The mountains in the distance are like ink, a Jingshui River divides the two banks, and the magnificent mountains and rivers of the Central Plains hills suddenly come into view.
The scenery was beautiful, but the look in Xu Yuan’s eyes was full of weariness.
It has been more than a month since I left Beijing, and no matter how beautiful the scenery is, I will always get tired of it if I continue to look at it for months.
The only thing that can comfort me is that the scenery outside has changed slightly over time.
When we first set off from Di’an, the mountains and rivers in late winter were all pure white. The falling snow throughout the winter almost dyed the entire world into a white waterfall. But today, the snow has all melted, and little bits of green gradually appeared. Within sight, it spread crazily at an extremely fast speed.
It’s another new year.
With the breeze of early spring blowing, while sipping the morning tea handed over by Xiao Bai, Xu Yuan glanced at the girl in ink sitting cross-legged on the futon opposite.
As his royal treasure hunter, Da Bingtuozi must be taken with him when he leaves Beijing on this trip. In order for her to travel with him, Xu Yuan even asked his father to come forward and go to Ran Jianli to lie to him.
But he still regrets it today.
He should let Ran Qingmo wait for him directly in the desert after a while, while he took Bai Muxi to the Feng family’s ancestral land alone to get the token of the Feng family’s treasure before meeting her there.
If this arrangement is made, January travel may pass by in a blink of an eye, instead of living like a year like now.
This was probably the first time in Xu Yuan’s life that he hated this long journey so much.
If you are looking for a novice to eat the marrow and learn about the taste, the cabin is too small and you can’t do it at all.
At the beginning of this trip, Xu Yuan occasionally took Bai Muxi for a walk in the mountains and forests, but gradually Ran Qingmo also became suspicious.
Because it took too long to go.
After careful consideration, Xu Yuan stopped acting like this.
A life of indulgence will continuously increase the threshold of desire and constantly pursue higher stimulation, while a life of abstinence will allow the next pleasure to reach its peak.
But the price of abstinence is boredom.
Xu Yuan can’t even find anyone to talk to now.
Da Bingtuozi’s scrolling disease, which he practices all the time, seems to have infected Biluochun. The two girls now stay in the carriage every day to practice each other’s scrolls, as if they want to see who can break through the origin first.
This is very painful for Xu Yuan.
These two girls can practice, but he can’t.
If Xu Yuan’s physique wants to practice, he must use the formation at home to extract the origins of ghosts and ghosts, and the fourth sister has not yet developed a portable formation.
As for concentrating on studying magic?
Xu Yuan wanted to do this, but didn’t dare.
Because researching magic will consume source energy.
Before leaving, Xu Xinyao only created more than ten alien crystals for him to replenish the black energy in his body. If you use one, you will lose one. If you waste it blindly, if you encounter danger and the energy in your body is exhausted, it will be terrible. Just wait for death.
After a month of journey, Xu Yuan already felt like there were ants crawling all over his body.
travel?
Go to jail!
Rubbing his eyebrows, Xu Yuan glanced at his side.
Sure enough, Bai Muxi, who had just made him morning tea, sat down on the futon next to Ran Qingmo without saying a word and continued to open the book.
One person was dressed in pure white, and the other was dressed in jet black. It was pleasing to the eye at a glance. However, after staring for a long time, Xu Yuan withdrew his gaze, and his narrow eyes that turned into dead fish eyes unconsciously glanced back and forth across the boundless blue sky.
really,
He should let Da Bingtuozi go directly to the West Desert to wait for him.
Thinking about these messy things, I don’t know how long it took until the sun was high in the sky. From the corner of Xu Yuan’s eye, he caught a glimpse of a small black shadow under the distant blue sky, rushing toward the man who sat down in the car.
Seeing this scene, Xu Yuanyou’s mind was shaken.
Finally a letter?
With a low murmur in his heart, Xu Yuan immediately sat up and stuck one hand out of the car window.
From time to time, the black spots on the sky turned into a sparrow with a purple tail, and it landed on Xu Yuan’s fingertips obediently. A rolled-up paper leaf was tied with a string on its small paws.
Purple Dragon Bird, a top-grade monster, is a bird used by the Black Scale Guard for short-distance communication.
It should be the message sent to him by the Black Scale Guard branch in Xifeng Mountain.
After removing the paper flap between the claws, Xu Yuan casually threw the bird out of the carriage. It flapped its wings twice and flew into the blue sky in an instant.
Opening the paper slowly, Xu Yuanzheng was browsing, and a clear and quiet female voice suddenly came over:
“Sir, is this a letter from the Black Scale Guard?”
In the past month, Xu Yuan had very few opportunities to talk to the two girls. The moment he heard these words, he immediately raised his eyes and smiled softly:
“Yes, you don’t practice anymore?”
Bai Muxi Zhen raised her hand slightly, and a wisp of five-color Dao Yun loomed. She tightened her hand, and the Dao Yun dissipated, and said softly:
“We have encountered a small bottleneck, and we probably won’t be able to improve any further in a short period of time.”
When she finished speaking, Bai Muxi keenly took in the ray of surprise in the young master’s eyes, feeling inexplicably happy.
She had indeed been practicing all this time, but she could clearly see the look on the young master’s face that went from boredom to hopelessness.
After that night, every time the young master came to look for her, his tricks that kept his body intact and were flashy gave her a little shock.
His thoughts inexplicably drifted to those nights, and Shengxue’s fair skin showed a subtle blush, but it was suppressed by Bai Muxi’s luck.
She knew very well that her intimacy with the young master was her advantage, but it was also her disadvantage. After all, only those who can’t get it will know how to cherish it.
Therefore, the “play” she played with the young master during the journey was all intentional on her part.
However, she has been careful to control this degree, because the young master is really smart, and he can see through most of her schemes at a glance.
The reason why we were able to succeed this time was mainly because cultivation was a serious matter, as well as the favor of the young master, and the protection of Mr. Ran.
When they were practicing, the young master would never disturb them no matter how bored he was, and would even deliberately lower his presence to avoid affecting them.
With her thoughts at this point, her heart softened slightly. Bai Muxi stood up from the futon gently, walked to sit next to Xu Yuan, tilted her head slightly to breathe close to the young master, and asked softly while looking at the paper:
“What’s the message from the Black Scale Guard?”
Xu Yuan smelled the fragrance of the woman’s hair, but he didn’t hide anything. He handed the paper to Xiao Bai and said:
“It’s all about the Feng family.”
Bai Muxi glanced briefly and asked softly:
“Is the Feng family in Xifeng Mountain a collateral branch?”
Feeling the woman’s exhalation like orchid at close range, Xu Yuan subconsciously stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around Xiaobai’s slender waist, but after taking a look at Da Bingtuozi, he temporarily endured it and said:
“The direct descendants of the Feng family are all in the Prime Minister’s Mansion, so naturally those here are collateral descendants.”
As she browsed, Bai Muxi’s delicate bright eyes suddenly widened for a moment:
“The director of the Black Scale Guards branch in Xifeng Mountain is no more than a grandmaster, but a branch of the Feng family actually has a peak powerhouse from the beginning?”
As she said that, she gave Xu Yuan a strange look.
His eyes seemed to be asking why the Prime Minister didn’t pay some attention to such a powerful person in the Feng family.
Xu Yuan thought for a while and replied in a low voice:
“A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The Feng family was one of the top three families in the world at that time. Isn’t it strange that there is no one at the peak of the origin of the family?”
Bai Muxi frowned and asked warily:
“But won’t this cause problems?”
“What’s wrong?”
Xu Yuanyan said with a smile: “Rebellion? Just a Peak Origin?”
Regarding power, Bai Muxi has a natural sensitivity:
“Sir, what I mean is that if this person breaks through the mortal world, will he follow the example of the Long family?”
Xiaobai was already regarded as Xu Yuan’s concubine. Although he was far from qualified to enter the inner court, Xu Yuan did not hide some confidential documents of the Prime Minister’s Mansion from him.
Just like the remnants of the Long family will gather around Long Po, if a person from the side family breaks through the mortal world, will they become the second Long Po?
Xu Yuan shook his head and said in a nonchalant tone:
“Mu Xi, you need to change your thinking. Great Yan is different from your underground palace. It is not a place where the capable can live, but where blood is supreme.”
“That person also has the blood of the Feng family.”
“But he is a collateral lineage. There is a natural gap between the collateral lineage and the direct lineage. They are born as ministers, and they will only be ministers until they die.”
“.” Bai Muxi.
Compared to the Prime Minister’s Mansion’s supervision of the Long family veterans, the Prime Minister’s Mansion’s supervision of the Feng family’s collateral branches is almost non-existent.
First, because they are their relatives after all, and policies that are too high-pressure will cause unnecessary trouble.
The second reason is because they are just collateral.
As long as the head of the family, Feng Jiuxuan, does not die, the Feng family will be firmly bound to the Prime Minister’s Mansion. Even if these side clans want to rebel, the veterans of the Feng family will not pay attention to them at all.
And even if Feng Jiuxuan dies, as long as one of him and Xu Changge changes his surname to Feng, or even if the fourth sister changes her surname to Feng, the inheritance rights of the Feng family will not fall into the hands of collateral families.
This is the rule and cohesion rooted in the blood of a thousand-year-old family.
Xu Yuan reached out and took the paper from her fingertips, flicked it with his fingers, and said with a low smile:
“Actually, instead of worrying about the half-dead old immortal from the side branch who has broken through and transformed into the mortal world, it is better to worry about the two geniuses that have emerged from the side branch of the Feng family in recent years. One is an eighteen-year-old breakthrough grandmaster, and the other is a fifteen-year-old Fusion seems to have understood Tao Yun. If they grow up in the future, they may be able to threaten me. “
Upon hearing this, Bai Muxi’s bright eyes instantly flashed with murderous intent.
Ran Qingmo over there suddenly dispersed his skills, opened his eyes, and stared at Xu Yuan without blinking.
Neither of the two women spoke, but they seemed to have spoken.
“.”
The atmosphere is a little weird.
After a moment of silence, Xu Yuan rolled his eyes speechlessly.
Xu Yuan had experienced the gangsterism of Little Green Tea before. He would directly kidnap Mu Zhiyun when he opened his mouth, but why did his Big Ice Tuozi become a bandit?
It must have been the green tea that spoiled his big ice cube.
Exhaling softly, Xu Yuan smiled and said:
“Don’t be so nervous. Most of the people on the side branch were purged by my grandfather. Although my father did marginalize the side branch of the Feng family due to various considerations, they are still members of the Feng family, and they are still on the same side. On our side, if the two collateral geniuses can really gain momentum, wouldn’t it be enough to give them some equal power?”
Only young people can be rebellious blindly, adults know how to compromise.
Because of Feng Jiuxuan and Feng Qian’er, the Feng family was naturally placed in the camp of the Prime Minister’s Office. As long as the senior officials of the Prime Minister’s Office were not pedantic and clung to power, who among the geniuses from the Feng family would be willing to risk being suspected? Take refuge elsewhere?
Hearing Xu Yuan’s words, Ran Qingmo silently closed her eyes and started her King Juan practice again.
Bai Muxi suggested in a low voice:
“Sir, during our trip to the Xifeng Mountains, do you want to test the virtues of those two geniuses?”
“.”
The corners of Xu Yuan’s eyes twitched slightly.
Why examine virtue?
For certainty of course.
Those who have talent will inquire deeply. Those who can be used by me will be kept, and those who cannot be will not be kept.
He found that this green tea yogurt was becoming more and more villainous.
But after thinking about it, Bai Muxi’s suggestion actually made some sense.
After all, the Feng family basically exists in name only. No one knows what kind of political propaganda the collateral branch is carrying out in private, and whether they have any resentment towards the prime minister’s house.
And calculating the time, the time when the Prime Minister’s Mansion collapsed in “Cang Yuan” seems to coincide with the timeline when those two geniuses may have grown up.
It’s always better to be careful.
Thinking of this, Xu Yuan thought for a moment and nodded:
“There is no need to deliberately contact them. Professional matters should be left to professional black scale guards. However, if you happen to encounter them, you might as well give it a try.”
After two days of driving, the wilderness scenery gradually faded away and was replaced by a majestic mountain range stretching for thousands of miles.
Xifeng Mountain, the ancestral land of the Feng family, has arrived.
This visit was not a formal visit, so before entering the mountain, Xu Yuan and the others hid the carriage in a mountain forest and activated the simple formation on it to hide it to prevent the monsters in the mountain from eating the horse. .
After making all preparations, the group of three people could hide their aura and sneak into the vast forest in front of them.
There are two ancestral temples of the Feng family.
One was newly built more than three hundred years ago in the gathering place of the Feng family, while the other is hidden in the Xifeng Mountains. Only the family heads of each generation know its location.
Of course, there was no need for Da Bingtuozi, the treasure hunter, to go out this time, because Xu Yuan was carrying a map he found from home. After all, he could be regarded as an out-and-out legitimate son of the Feng family.
Xifeng Mountain Range is a treasure place.
The red clouds linger all year round and are filled with fairy spirit. Whenever the sun sets, the afterglow of the setting sun falls on the forest. When it is draped on the red clouds, it is like a bright phoenix sinking in it, making waves and magnificent.
And after entering the night, the entire Xifeng Mountain Range will be shrouded in a layer of thick fog that hinders spiritual awareness, and the towering main peak is hidden in it, like a giant phoenix holding the sky and crawling on the ground.
Sunrise and sunset repeated themselves for three days.
The three of them, Xu Yuan, relied on the slightly rough map to approach the location of the Feng family’s ancestral temple.
The lit bonfire illuminated the surrounding white mist, and the surrounding towering dense forests were looming. Sitting in front of the bonfire with Bai Muxi, Xu Yuan fiddled with the condiment bottles in his hands skillfully, and his staple food was the delicacies and game he encountered during the day.
Coat it with sauce, put on iron thorns, and place it on the campfire, with the barbecue fat dripping.
While spinning the iron thorn in his hand, Xu Yuan asked Xiaobai softly:
“Ran Qingmo should be back soon, right?”
Bai Muxi sat cross-legged aside, glanced around, and replied softly:
“This thick fog hinders spiritual perception, and I have never sensed Mr. Ran.”
Xu Yuan smiled softly when he heard this:
“It’s so late that I haven’t come back yet. It seems like I got a big harvest today. Yesterday I found a broken source crystal and a low-level fire-based skill. I wonder what I can find today.”
Although there was no need to go to Dabing Tuozi to find the ancestral temple, there were obviously other good things left by the Feng family’s ancestors hidden in the Feng family’s ancestral land, so Xu Yuan asked the treasure hunter to go out and try her luck.
If it is found, it can be regarded as returning to its original owner.
Just as Xu Yuan was thinking in his mind, Bai Muxi suddenly raised his eyes and looked in a direction deep in the dense forest and said:
“Sir, someone seems to be coming over there.”
