Chapter 71 Monk (36)

Time flies and it’s March again.

On Dongting Lake, the smoke is still vast and the clouds cover the fog.

No one dares to approach the deep waters, and no one dares to go deep.

But there are always exceptions.

Here, there is a lone boat floating on the lake.

It is said to be a lonely boat, but it has several feet of space and can accommodate dozens of people.

At this moment, there were three men and two women standing on the boat, traveling together in Dongting. It was so elegant.

There are three men, each wearing different clothes. One is dressed as a scholar and holds a folding fan, while the other two are dressed in black and white and carry swords on their backs, just like heroes.

The two women also have their own merits. One is wearing a white skirt and has a cold temperament, while the other is wearing a palace dress, elegant and luxurious, like a white lotus and peonies blooming on the small boat.

“I’ve heard for a long time that the mist in Dongting is very strange, and it’s true when I see it today.”

"This is still outside the lake. Going deeper and reaching the center of the lake will be even more foggy!"

"It's a pity that this wonderful scene is still in the mortal world, without any spiritual veins buried or spiritual energy condensed..."

"If there is spiritual energy, it may have been taken over by major sects or family cultivators. How can we be allowed to visit?"

"When many monks see the wonders of the Dongting, they will think that there must be something mysterious or even hidden in the cave, so they waste time and search the waters, but in the end they will come up empty-handed and find nothing."

"Now that we've had enough jokes, no one will come here to waste time. Only those young people who have just entered the world of cultivation and don't understand anything will be fooled by those profiteers and come here to find some kind of fairy fate."

"Haha, Brother Song, aren't you talking about us?"

"Of course not. We are here today just for sightseeing, not for the sake of immortality."

"That said, maybe we can run into something interesting."

"Yes, although this place has no spiritual energy and is not popular among cultivators like us, in the eyes of ordinary warriors, it is a strange and secret place. Many so-called martial arts masters will hide here to find immortality. .”

"I heard that some time ago, there was a man who called himself Diaosou and haunted this place to teach martial arts."

"Oh, a martial arts master, no matter how high the martial arts is, he is still a mortal. If he really has the qualifications, he would have been discovered by the immortal seekers from all over the world and sent to various major sects to practice. Who would still practice martial arts with mediocre power and limited future?"

"Girl Tie, you have extraordinary qualifications and are uniquely blessed by nature. You must not be obsessed with the so-called martial arts. Practicing Qi and cultivating the truth is the right way."

"You don't need to talk anymore, I heard that Miss Tie has collected a Qingyu Sect's Immortal Search Order. When the Qingyu Immortal Gate opens in September, you can enter the test. With Tie Girl's talent, you will definitely be able to join the Qingyu Sect. , become an entry-level disciple.”

"Qingyu Sect..."

"Speaking of Qingyu Sect, I have to mention Brother Zhang. I heard that Brother Zhang will be included in the Tianshu Sect soon. Is it true or false?"

"This is still false. Everyone knows that Brother Zhang is uniquely endowed with extraordinary fortunes. Not only is he highly cultivated, but his understanding is also extraordinary. He can be said to be the seed of a natural formation master. Tianshu Sect is a major sect of formations, so naturally he wants to recruit Brother Zhang. Get started."

"Where, where..."

The three of them were chatting and laughing, and the two men in well-dressed suits were flattering each other. The man in blue shirt dressed as a scholar was also very helpful. He showed off his wealth in a subtle way, and glanced at the woman beside him from the corner of his eye from time to time.

In this regard, the woman in white with a pure and clean temperament, like a lotus flower, did not express the slightest. She stared at the strange Dongting fog with clouds and waves. She didn't know what she was thinking. She didn't even say a word, which made the scholar a little confused.

Fortunately, the woman in palace clothes hid her face and smiled, and gave a step in time: "Three brothers, don't laugh like this. Sister Tie is here to hunt down the enemy, and she will definitely kill that young person here. , you three, please don’t just go sightseeing and run away from that guy!”

"Hey, Fairy Yang, you can rest assured. Although the two of us are not very capable, we can still handle a villain who is lucky enough to be immortal."

"That's right, Fairy Yang can't trust our brothers, so why can't she trust Brother Zhang?"

"If we don't talk about anything else, let's just talk about this black iron boat. It is a middle-grade magical weapon. When activated by Brother Zhang's late stage Qi training, it can destroy mountains. What kind of immortal fate did Xiao Xiao have to resist it?"

"This Black Iron Boat is also a defensive magic weapon. I heard that Brother Zhang also has a Geng Gold Sword, which is made from the body of a flying sword. It has become a top-grade magic weapon. If you activate it, even a foundation-building monk will Avoid its sharp edges."

"That's right, Na Xiaoxiao is no more than a mortal. He has no roots and no inheritance. Whatever fairy fate falls into his hands is just a secret investment from a bright pearl, and it will never be a success."

"Don't worry, Miss Tie. Brother Zhang will definitely capture you and avenge you."

The two began to flatter each other again.

When the scholar saw this, although he was happy, he still said modestly: "You two brothers are so ridiculous. My flying sword is nothing but a useless sword embryo. Although it has some power, it is far inferior to that of Shangzhu. Brother Ji, you have been with me for many years, and to this day, you have only killed one evil cultivator who was in the late stage of Qi training!"

"An evil cultivator in the late stage of Qi training?"

"Brother Zhang deserves to be Brother Zhang, we are ashamed!"

"It turns out that I underestimated Brother Zhang, I feel so ashamed."

Hearing this, the three flatterers quickly followed, making the scholar smile even more.

However, the woman in white still made no expression.

This made the scholar a little embarrassed, and the others had to change the topic.

"I heard that there were dragons in Dongting Lake some time ago?"

"Is this happening?"

"Yes, it is said that many fishermen saw it. That day in the thick fog in the lake, a dragon roared up and could be heard for hundreds of miles. Then there was thunder and it scared away. The shadow of the golden dragon appeared in the sky and appeared in the sea of ​​clouds. It writhed and played, lingering for a while before disappearing without a trace."

"this……"

Talking about the rumors from a few months ago, the three of them were a little surprised.

Only the scholar Zhang didn't take it seriously and shook his head and said: "Ignorant mortals are just spreading lies. How can a dragon or even a sacred beast appear in the mortal world?"

"Maybe it's a dragon?"

"Even if it's a dragon, it's comparable to the Golden Core Daxiu and even the Yuanying Ancestor. How could he end up in Dongting Lake where he doesn't even have spiritual veins?"

"In my opinion, it's just a temporary cloud, rain, rainbow vision, and thunder. The people don't know the cause and just spread rumors. It's not surprising."

"I see, Brother Zhang is still well-informed..."

As the few people spoke, the boat went deeper and deeper.

Deep in the cave, the fog shrouded the area, and the visibility was extremely low.

Zhang Guanghua shook his paper fan and said to the woman in white named "Tie Xin'er": "Miss Tie, does she know where Xiao Tie was hiding that night?"

Only then did Tie Xin'er look back: "The evil thief hit me in the palm. There is my blue and pink fragrance on the palm. It can't be separated by water. As long as I get close to him, I can find his whereabouts."

"good!"

Zhang Guanghua nodded: "My black iron boat can travel thousands of miles a day, and it can move freely in both directions. It can search the entire Dongting Lake in three days at most."

Seeing this, Tie Xinlan also felt guilty: "Thank you, Brother Zhang, for your help!"

"Hey, between you and me, we don't talk about this."

Zhang Guanghua smiled, activated the black iron boat, and started to explore in the fog.

Anyway, it is a mid-grade magical weapon with strong defense, so there is no need to worry about any hidden reefs.

After wandering like this for a while...

"Um?"

Zhang Guanghua frowned and stopped the Xuantie Boat.

"this……"

"Brother Zhang, what's wrong?"

Everyone cast doubtful glances.

Zhang Guanghua frowned and stared ahead: "That island... is weird!"

"eccentric?"

"What's weird?"

Everyone looked along and saw a deserted island, standing there alone, which seemed nothing strange.

Zhang Guanghua shook his head, said nothing, and only waved his fan to create a strong blast of wind.

"call!"

The essence of the strong wind swept past, and the illusory scene was like a mirror, a flower in the water, and the moon, causing ripples in an instant.

"this……"

"Array?"

Everyone was shocked and finally saw the trick.

"Illusion array?"

"Only one level?"

Zhang Guanghua tapped his folding fan on the palm of his hand, and after secretly guessing how powerful he was, he chuckled and said, "It seems that a Taoist friend has settled here!"

After saying that, he looked to the left and right: "Everyone, will you come with me to visit?"

"this……"

Everyone hesitated and couldn't decide.

"Don't worry, everyone, we are not that vicious Jie Cultivator. We are just here to have a look. If we are really of the same kind, then we will pay a visit. If it is an evildoer, we will kill the demon."

After saying that, Zhang Guanghua looked at Tie Xin'er again: "What do you think, Miss Tie?"

"What Brother Zhang said is true."

Tie Xin'er nodded and looked coldly at the island covered by the illusion: "Maybe my enemy is hiding here."

"Okay, let's go and have a look!"

Seeing Tie Xin'er nodding, Zhang Guanghua didn't bother to ask for other people's opinions and directly urged the Xuan Tie Zhou to hit the illusion.

Faced with the formation, one should not be so reckless.

But the other party's formation in this soulless land, in the mortal world, was still such a simple illusory formation, and it didn't look like someone with advanced cultivation.

So, no need to be too careful.

The black iron boat flew out, and instantly rushed through the mirror, flowers, water, moon, and mirage, and found a small lake island.

There is also a boat on the edge of the lake island, and it is obvious that someone lives here.

Zhang Guanghua's eyes were focused, and without saying a word, he flew into the sky in the black iron boat and went straight to the island.

The flying boat took off, and from a high position, we immediately had a glimpse of the entire island. Among them, a field with golden rice and abundant fruits was the most eye-catching.

"farmland?"

Zhang Guanghua's eyes were focused, and he drove the flying boat to the farmland. He then raised his hand and made a move, and an ear of rice immediately flew into it.

"This is... Lingmi?"

Zhang Guanghua looked at the white jade rice in his hand, and then at the rice fields below that were about to be harvested. His eyes were focused and his eyes were shining brightly.

"How can spiritual rice be grown in an ordinary place?"

“It’s not in line with reason, it’s not in line with reason!”

"Unless...immortal fate!"

"The rare treasure of immortality must be the rare treasure of immortality!"

His mind turned quickly and he came to a conclusion. Zhang Guanghua's eyes showed a burst of joy that could not be concealed.

Immortal fate, fairy fate, such a fairy fate!

To be able to cultivate and grow spiritual rice in this ordinary place without spiritual energy and reap a bumper harvest. Is this something that a mortal can do?

Not to mention ordinary people, ordinary cultivators cannot do this unless they are willing to break the spiritual stone into pieces and use the spiritual stone powder as fertilizer.

Zhang Guanghua didn't believe that someone could be so extravagant.

So he can be sure that behind this spiritual field that is about to have a good harvest, there is a fairy fate and a rare treasure.

An immortal treasure that will soon be his!

What, a cultivator?

Which immortal cultivator would shrink down to farm in the mortal world? Does he have some serious illness in his brain or something wrong with his body?

Only the immortals, those lucky and unlucky ones, can do such weird things.

so……

"Brother Zhang!"

"This must be the work of some immortal!"

"Brother Zhang deserves this opportunity!"

On the other side, the three of them also figured out the key and immediately congratulated Zhang Guanghua, who was looking bright and clear, indicating that they and others had no intention of competing.

"Haha, since it's an opportunity, let's share it."

Zhang Guanghua smiled and said seriously: "First search this place to see if the immortal is here, and then harvest the spiritual rice in the field. I see there is another place over there, which seems to be a medicine field. Please be careful while you wait, don't get hurt. Miraculous elixir.”

"yes!"

Seeing that Zhang Guanghua, a master in the late stage of Qi training, was willing to take a share of the pie, everyone was instantly motivated, even Tie Xin'er, who had a cold temperament, was eager to try.

Zhang Guanghua stopped talking nonsense and the black iron flying boat landed on the ground.

Several people stepped out of the flying boat. He folded his fan and swept it away. The flying boat, which was several feet long, shrunk to the size of a hand and was tucked into his sleeve with his backhand.

"Let's go!"

Zhang Guanghua put away the magic weapon and led everyone towards the wooden house in the center of the island.

At this moment...

"Bah!!!"

A cry penetrated the sky and stirred up the wind and clouds.
