Facing Wei Yuan's question, the goddess just turned her back to him and looked at the world that she had been away from for more than 1,700 years. It was not the ghostland that she was trapped in when she just revived. This was the world that she had always longed for, with the fragrance of flowers and plants, the wind blowing through the treetops, and the sun falling through the leaves.
She looked into the distance, and after a long time, she replied: "I want to see if my old friend is still there, listen to the song of the mountain ghost, and see if He Bo is still fishing. Finally, I have to go back to the mountain."
The mountain.
Wei Yuan has always been curious in his heart. He thought it was just the mountain in the ghostland before, but now it seems that it is not that simple. He smiled and asked: "The mountain you are talking about is..."
The goddess replied: "Kunlun Xu."
Kunlun...
Wei Yuan was speechless.
She looked back at Wei Yuan and said:
"Thank you for saving my life. You can call me Jue."
Wei Yuan wanted to ask the goddess what her surname was, but then he realized that the goddess of the Qin and Han dynasties was not a mortal. How could she have a surname? Most likely, she was called by a single character like the primitive clan. Since the other party didn't care, he was not a rigid person. He simply clasped his fists and smiled:
"Then, Jue, have a smooth journey. If you have time in the future, you can come to this world and find me."
The goddess nodded and said softly, "Goodbye."
After the voice fell, she turned around and stepped forward.
Wrapped in the wind, he was gone in a blink of an eye.
Wei Yuan stood on the mountain with a sword on his back, his left hand behind his back, and his right hand raised to pick up a fallen leaf swept up by the breeze. This trip to the ghost realm seemed like a dream. He recalled for a long time, smiled, let go of the fallen leaf in his hand, let it fall down, and turned to leave.
............
After leaving the mountain, Tiannv Jue walked along the river system.
But what she saw along the way was completely different from the past. In ancient times, the pre-Qin Warring States and even the Qin, Han, Wei and Jin dynasties were just dynasties, and the tone of the world did not change much. The cities of the pre-Qin Wei Kingdom may also be used by the later Wei, and the Great Wall of the King of Qin also became a barrier for the Han.
But the gap between the present and the past is no longer that simple.
Almost the foundation of the world has changed.
The steel jungle rose from the ground, and mortals moved at the speed of daily cultivation in the past. Like iron dragons, they pierced through mountains and crossed long rivers, running non-stop in different cities. The Tiannv, who had been sleeping for a thousand years, felt that the world had changed so much that it was almost unbelievable for a while.
I wanted to find someone to ask, but I didn't know how to start.
Although she had been moving very fast for the past few days, she had just woken up after all. She had to force herself to use large-scale magic skills, which made her cultivation like stagnant water. She could not improve much. However, she did not see the river god in the Yellow River and the mountain ghosts in the mountains. This made her feel that this world was more and more unfamiliar.
The moon was in the middle of the sky, and the moonlight on the ground was as cold as water.
The goddess walked on the top of a mountain, silently looking at the mortal world below the mountain with lights as bright as day, and was stunned.
Her eyes moved slightly, and suddenly her voice was cold, saying: "Come out."
There was a rustling sound.
The person who came did not hide his breath.
The goddess turned around and saw that it was a white-haired old man in a simple gray Taoist robe. It seemed that he was just an old man who could be seen everywhere. At most, he was a little more energetic, but it was naturally impossible for him to follow the goddess all the way here.
She sensed a familiar aura from the old man, and a look of surprise appeared on her face:
"Are you... the descendant of Zhang Daoling?"
The old man bowed slightly and smiled:
"I am Zhang Ruosu, a poor Taoist priest, and I am honored to meet the goddess."
The goddess looked at the old man, and thought of the Taoist true cultivator who was said to be rare in a thousand years. Her expression eased and she said, "You are waiting for me here specially. What's the matter?"
The old Taoist nodded and replied, "It's just that the hexagram has a sign, and I came here to stop the goddess from returning to Kunlun."
"At least you shouldn't go back at this time."
.........
The old Taoist flicked his sleeves, and the feng shui pattern of the ground changed wherever he stepped.
The breeze isolated all the sounds in this area to ensure that the words would not be leaked. He then slowly explained to the goddess that this was a secret conversation that no one except the two of them knew about. The girl was surprised at first, but finally nodded slowly in agreement. The old man smiled and said:
"In the past thousand years, the world has changed a lot. The goddess has a long life. Why don't you go around and take a look."
"If you need any help, the Tianshi Mansion will definitely help you."
.........
When the sun was high in the sky, Wei Yuan woke up slowly.
He stretched himself, did morning lessons, practiced the Crouching Tiger Technique, and took medicines exchanged from the Han Dynasty arsenal to regulate the internal organs damaged by the strong use of evil spirits. There was some noise outside the door. It had been more than half a month since he came back from the ghost land, but there was no change.
There were still not many customers except for this museum.
In other words, two more small shops could not continue to operate and closed down.
Then the site was bought by a new person and started to be renovated, which was a big deal.
After all, this place is the old city area, and the development core of Quan City is not in this area. Therefore, the flow of people in this place is really pitiful. Although it is quiet, it is not suitable for opening a store. In the end, it will probably become the memory of this city and slowly disappear.
Wei Yuan didn't care much.
Although his museum has no salary, it now has income.
When the museum signed the transfer contract, Zhang Hao was there, and he guessed that Wei Yuan seemed to be a little tight on money now. He used to have a salary, but now that the museum has become his own, he has no salary. This time, after killing the ghost king, he directly sent a bounty similar to the police bounty for suspects.
It relieved Wei Yuan's embarrassment.
And the yellow talisman obtained after killing the evil man, Wei Yuan also handed it directly to the special operations team.
With the information from the special operations team, we should be able to find some clues about the identity of the evildoer from this talisman. As for merits, Wei Yuan spent ten points of merits in exchange for the wound medicine in the Han arsenal to heal his injuries.
The remaining merits will be exchanged for what kind of magical power after the injury is healed.
It is indeed a rare day of leisure.
Wei Yuan drew out the eight-sided Han sword and stepped on the Yu step. In the narrow environment of the museum, he still used the Xuanyuan sword technique with ease. His swordsmanship was no longer as sharp and sharp as it was at the beginning. After experiencing a life-and-death battle, it was like a dull stone, round and calm.
After using this swordsmanship several times, Wei Yuan put away the sword and prepared to open the roller shutter door outside.
The museum still has to be open.
It was spring, and the sun was warm. As soon as I opened the door, I saw the special operations team's car outside. In the car were Zhang Hao and Shen Jifeng, who was obviously very excited. After seeing Wei Yuan, he first called Wei Pavilion Master and said hello, and then he couldn't help but be excited.
Wei Yuan was surprised and said, "Did you find the trace of the yellow talisman?"
Zhang Hao's face twitched.
Wei Yuan thought for a while, and then said, "There has been a new breakthrough in the research of spiritual energy."
Shen Jifeng lowered his head and adjusted his glasses.
Wei Yuan said with a smile: "It's not that we have found the details of that evil way, nor that there has been a breakthrough in the popularization of spiritual energy. What are you two so excited to come here for?"
Shen Jifeng then raised his head and said:
"We, we just came here to help, and then came to visit."
"It's a senior who has been in seclusion for a long time. He is going to come down to the world. We help him solve some mundane affairs."
"That senior is really good-looking..."
"So that's the case, why don't you come in and sit down?"
Wei Yuan welcomed the two people in, served them two cups of tea, and then saw a bouquet of flowers at the door. He was a little surprised and asked the paper dolls who would come here early every day. The two paper dolls hugged and swayed for a while, and Wei Yuan understood what they meant. They were sent by the people who opened a new shop opposite.
It was only at this time that Wei Yuan noticed that the two original shops opposite had been merged into a new shop.
It was a flower shop. The flowers bloomed in spring, and the rich fragrance of flowers was already coming with the wind.
"It's a neighbor."
Wei Yuan smiled, put the flowers in a vase, thought about it, and felt that it was reasonable to visit. He turned around and said something to the two people in the house. He walked across the slightly sloping asphalt road. The road surface was slightly warmed by the sun. Wei Yuan knocked on the door and said, "Hello, I'm from the museum opposite. Thank you for the flowers."
"Hello?"
Wei Yuan pushed the door open and the crisp bell rang softly.
Then he was stunned.
On the rattan lounge chair surrounded by flowers, the girl in a goose yellow long skirt and a light-colored knitted vest over a shirt raised her head. Her black hair was like a waterfall. She gently placed an ancient book on her knees and nodded:
"You're welcome, Crouching Tiger."
