Chapter 55: Xiaozhu Peak

Li Yan stood on the flying magic weapon that looked like a scroll, looking at the huge mountain that was getting closer and closer. He felt a little expectation and confusion in his heart. He didn't know what kind of life was waiting for him here.

The mountain was getting closer and closer. The whole mountain was dark green and covered with bamboo. These bamboos were not the kind of lush green bamboo he had seen in Daqing Mountain before, but the color was close to black, and there were faint green light crystals on the bamboo body. These green light crystals were flowing slowly on the bamboo body, which made people feel heavy and peaceful, as well as a sense of fantasy.

Looking at the slowly flowing green light, he suddenly thought of something, "There won't be any poisonous insects in this bamboo, right?" His face couldn't help but be excited, and his heart was beating.

The eldest brother beside him seemed to know what he was thinking. He looked at him and said with a smile, "Are you thinking that there might be spiritual insects or poisonous insects in this bamboo body?"

Li Yan thought to himself, "Can you guess this?" ??

Before he could say it, the eldest brother continued.

"Haha, this is easy to guess. All the cultivators who have seen the three peaks will have this idea when they first come to Xiaozhu Peak. I, my senior brother, also thought so at the beginning. But this bamboo is just bamboo, and there are no spiritual insects living in it. This kind of bamboo is a spiritual plant and a very good material for practicing tools. I will tell you in detail when I have time." As they spoke, they had landed on a grassland halfway up the mountain.

Li Yan walked down from the book-like magic weapon and looked forward. The mountain stretched into the sea of ​​clouds in a dark mass. The inky mountain body went up like waves. There were green dots flashing and flowing in the black bamboo sea from time to time. It seemed as if they were in front of a dream palace. Starting from their feet, a small path stretched up into the bamboo sea and sank into the vast ocean of bamboo waves. The air was filled with spiritual energy, which entered Li Yan's body lively, making his pores seem to be jumping for joy.

Turning back to look down the mountain, there was no way down the mountain from where he was standing. All he could see were dark green bamboo leaves swaying and surging, appearing and disappearing in the mist. There was no mountain gate at the foot of the mountain like the other peaks. I guess people usually went in and out from the mountainside.

"Junior brother, let's go up the mountain." At this time, Li Wuyi had put away his magic weapon and walked towards the path. Li Yan got up and followed.

Li Yan walked on the path. The dark bamboos on his head and on both sides formed a dark passage, with green light crystals flowing and wandering on it, making him feel like he was walking in a strange world.

"Junior brother, after we go up, we will find a place for you to wash up briefly, then go to see the master, and finally arrange your residence, okay?" Li Wuyi walked in front, his long robe fluttering, and from time to time there were some green spots shining on his face and hair, which was actually a kind of enchanting beauty.

"I will obey my elder brother in everything." Li Yan certainly knew that it was not appropriate to go there in his current outfit.

"Well, not far ahead is the dormitory where the errand disciples live, and a little further back is the main hall of Xiaozhu Peak. Behind the main hall, halfway up the mountain is where we live and practice. The master should be in the main hall now. It would be inappropriate for us to go around the main hall to wash up in the back. Junior brother, please accommodate us and wash up in the errand disciples' place in front. How about that?" Li Wu looked at Li Yan with an apologetic look on his face.

Li Yan didn't care about these things.

He grew up in a mountain village. Although he had been with Master Ji for half a year, this point had not changed.

"Of course, Senior Brother." Li Yan replied calmly.

After walking for about half a cup of tea in this psychedelic passage with dark green dots, a fence and bamboo wall appeared in front of my eyes. There was a large open space inside the wall, and the outside of the wall was surrounded by a sea of ​​dark bamboo. There were more than a dozen houses built in the fence courtyard, which looked like the front yard of a mansion. A gravel passed through these houses and extended to the mountain. Compared with the pavilions, towers, fairy springs and birds on other peaks, it was simple and a bit shabby, but it was more peaceful and elegant.

Looking back at the mottled and brilliant passage path, it seemed like a dream journey.

Following Li Wuyi into the fence courtyard, there were about a dozen young men and women coming and going. They were all wearing yellow clothes. The men were wearing short and tight clothes, and the women were wearing light-browed long skirts and palace dresses. When they saw the two people coming in, they hurried over to salute and said "Hello, Master Uncle". Some of them also stole a few glances at Li Yan.

"This is your eighth uncle. Xiaoyi, take your eighth uncle to wash up simply." Li Wuyi smiled and introduced Li Yan to several people, and then pointed to a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old and said.

When the dozen young male and female disciples heard that this young man was the "Uncle Master", they were all curious. After all, some of them had been doing chores here earlier, and some came later. They knew that there had been no disciples here for a long time, so they couldn't help but look at Li Yan a few more times. Li Yan's ragged clothes were quite eye-catching, and the spiritual energy fluctuations on his body were weak, even worse than them. They couldn't help but look at each other for a few times, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

The young man named Xiaoyi stepped forward a few steps and came to Li Wuyi. This man had a handsome appearance. Li Wuyi stretched out his hand to Li Yanyi and said, "Give me the storage bag." Li Yan knew that this was to take out the clothes from it for him, and he was also curious to know how to take them out.

Li Wuyi took the storage bag, patted it lightly with one hand, and a colorful light flashed. A set of robes, a set of underwear and a pair of boots appeared in the air, just floating in the air.

Li Yan now saw the process of taking things out of the storage bag, and his eyes flashed with surprise. Then he shook his head gently. He lacked the basic knowledge of cultivating immortals, and even the most basic immortal arts here made him confused.

The young man named Xiaoyi stretched out his back to take the clothes in the air, and then bowed to Li Yan respectfully, "Please follow me, Eighth Uncle", and walked to a house next to him.

Li Yan is now fifteen years old, but his height is seven feet, which is not much different from that of an ordinary adult.

After half a cup of tea, looking at Li Yan in front of him wearing a dark green robe, Li Wuyi nodded. Although Li Yan looked ordinary, he also had a fresh feeling at this time. The boy exuded a youthful atmosphere, which was not something that people in their teens could imitate, although the cultivators looked young.

Li Yan felt very strange about this set of clothes. It was moderately tight and comfortable to wear, especially the pair of boots on his feet. With every step, he could glide forward lightly.

"Haha, let's go. This set of clothes is also a simple spiritual weapon. It can keep away the cold and heat. The boots can improve the speed of the body movement. They can resist the magic attack below the fourth level of the Condensation Qi Stage." Li Wuyi knew that Li Yan knew nothing about these. He said a few simple words and took him to walk back along the gravel path between several rows of houses.

The gravel road went up the mountain. Along the way, Li Wuyi occasionally pointed to the things on both sides and said a few words to Li Yan, and Li Yan asked a question from time to time. About half a meal later, a dark green bamboo house appeared in front of the gravel road, standing in a bamboo forest. The whole body was dark and glowing green, like the twinkling stars in the night. It was obviously built with bamboo from the mountain. Li Wuyi did not stop and walked straight to the bamboo house with Li Yan.

Li Yan followed behind with a calm face, and the same long robe fluttered and glided away. The two of them, one in front and one behind, were somewhat elegant. In this piece of stars, it was like a fairyland.

"Master, the eighth junior brother is here." Li Wuyi stopped in front of the house and bowed slightly.

"Come in," a young and gentle voice came from the house.

Li Yan frowned slightly when he heard the voice, but Li Wuyi did not notice it. He just tilted his head slightly and said, "Junior brother, let's go in." He led Li Yan into the bamboo house.

After entering the house, Li Yan first felt that the house was completely different from what he imagined. He saw that the house was built with those bamboos outside, so he thought that there must be many gaps in this house. At that time, he was still thinking, wouldn't it leak when it rains if this thing is used to build a house? But when he entered the house, he knew he was wrong. This house is about thirty feet in size, even wide, and the walls around it are all blue-white, the same color as the inner wall of ordinary green bamboo, but the four walls are like a whole, slightly emitting some light, and the white is tinged with green, making the whole lobby bright, clean and elegant. There are several large windows on the four walls, and from time to time there are a few bird calls coming in, which makes this place even more quiet and ethereal.

There were six people in the room at this time, four men and two women.

There were two people sitting at the top, a young man and woman. The man was a little fat, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, about 27 or 28 years old, wearing a dark green robe, with a gentle and neutral expression, and a leisurely look, smiling at Li Yan and the others who came in.

Next to the fat young man was a palace-dressed woman in her early twenties, with a curvy figure, fair skin, and a faint reflection of the flowing light in her smooth skin. She had an oval face, smiling phoenix eyes, and a delicate face. She was wearing a white palace dress, with her hair hanging down and a jade hairpin inserted diagonally, and she was smiling. There was no spiritual pressure fluctuation on these two people, and they sat there like two mortals, a rich young man and a young lady in the palace.

There were four people sitting in a row at the bottom, two men and two women. The one closest to the top was a middle-aged man who looked about 40 years old. He was stout, with thick eyebrows and a wide mouth. His height seemed to be almost the same as Li Yan standing upright at this moment. He looked even more majestic, but he was wearing the same dark green robe. His muscles filled the robe, making him look less elegant and graceful, and more heavy. He was staring at Li Yan with his leopard eyes.

Below him sat a young man of about 18 or 19 years old, also wearing a dark green robe, with a lean and capable figure, a long face and small eyes.

His skin was slightly darker, and he seemed to be slightly taller than Li Yan. What was particularly noticeable was that his arms looked very slender, somewhat disproportionate to his body. His small eyes were rolling back and forth, and he looked like a smart person.

Further down were two girls, one short and one tall. They were about the same age, about 20 years old, but one was wearing a goose yellow long skirt, and the other was wearing a dark green robe of the sect.

The woman in the goose yellow long skirt had a round face and big eyes. She was a little short, with black hair casually scattered on her shoulders. Her skin was fair and round. Her big eyes looked at Li Yan from time to time, or more precisely, at Li Wuyi. Her slender hands were white as jade, and she would lift her hair from time to time, and then whisper a few words to the woman next to her. Occasionally, there was a few blushes on her face, which made her look very pretty.

The last tall woman had bright eyes and white teeth, brown wheat skin, short hair, and a heroic face, but her temperament revealed a hint of coldness. The long robe did not feel wide on her body at all. Her chest supported the long robe high, but the clothes under it were abruptly drooped naturally and folded into several long strips, giving people a feeling of a flat and strong abdomen. Even if she was sitting there, she could feel the slender long legs under the hem of the robe. The big-eyed woman in the yellow skirt leaned over and said a few words to her from time to time. She only whispered occasionally.

Each of these people exuded a burst of spiritual pressure, which made Li Yan, who had just entered the main hall, feel a little breathless. At this time, these people were looking at Li Yan with curious or cold eyes, especially the long-armed young man, who turned his eyes and shook his body in the chair from time to time. I don’t know what he was thinking.

They were looking at Li Yan, and Li Yan was also observing them silently. His awe was not so strong at this time. It sounded nice to say that he was a newborn calf, but as he began to practice in the future, he realized that he was ignorant of life and death today. Fortunately, this is the master’s sect. The master has told the disciples below about his origins and knew that he was a wild person and didn’t understand that the cultivators were more particular about respect and inferiority. Otherwise, some people would die without knowing what happened.

When Li Yan saw the eyes of the young man at the top, he finally found the reason why he was uncomfortable just now. This look and the gentle voice just now reminded him of a person, the third-tier division.

"Junior brother, junior brother, quickly pay homage to the master and the master's wife" A voice sounded from his ear, interrupting Li Yan's thoughts.

Li Yan finally came to his senses, and couldn't help blushing for his loss of composure. He sighed in his heart. His first impression of this master was not good. This reminded him of the equally humble and gentle Master Ji, which brought back bad memories.

At the same time, he was also wondering why this master was so young. He looked only a few years older than Li Wuyi. Was he a Jindan master? But this was not the time to think too much, so he had to lift his robe and kneel down to kowtow.

"Disciple, Li Yan greets the master, oh, Master's wife", he only remembered what Li Wuyi said later. That person seemed to be Master's wife. Just now, his attention was focused on this fat master, and he almost forgot what Li Wuyi said.

"It seems that this little guy doesn't care much about my Master's wife?" The woman in white palace clothes at the top heard Li Yan's stuttering words and said to the fat young man with a smile.
