People who hide secrets will always be more cautious when doing things for others.

Chen Youniao has always been cautious. Although he agreed to Qingyun, he was clumsy and behaved in a perfunctory manner.

Three days passed quickly, and the order in the town was slightly chaotic, but it was not a major problem and was suppressed.

After receiving his share of the talisman money, Chen Youniao thanked him with a smile on his face and left the Taoist temple.

Although Taoist Master Qingyun felt a little sad, he thought that it would be a good relationship with the other party, so it didn't matter if he spent some money. The main thing is that the money can be reimbursed for work, so he doesn't have to pay out of his own pocket.

Back at the inn, Huamei had finished cleaning up and put on a bamboo hat. The two of them went to the house of Xiao Cheng and his wife.

Xiao Cheng had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw them arriving, he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and came forward to greet them.

In addition to Xiao Cheng and his wife, this team included Pan Daoren, Wu Zhi, and five or six others.

There were more adventurers who originally planned to leave Immortal Heritage Town together, but some of them changed their minds, and some others set off first.

Going home is a long journey, with high mountains and long roads, and wind and frost, so all kinds of preparations must be made. In addition to three sturdy carriages, everyone also has strong horses.

Xiao Cheng and his wife had one carriage, and the other two were used to carry various materials - for the adventurers, they had worked hard in Yunmeng for many years, and each of them had accumulated a large amount of furniture.

The bulky items were basically converted into silver and gold coins, but there were still many specialty items to take back.

All these things were placed in the carriage, packed to the brim.

In contrast, Chen Youniao only carried a sword on his back and a wine gourd around his waist, so he went into battle absolutely light.

The bookcase containing simple luggage and the four treasures of the study were placed together with Huamei in the carriage where Su Wan was.

The two girls belong to the family and it is convenient to stay together.

Xiao Cheng was in charge of driving the carriage, and Chen Youniao rode beside the carriage as a guard, forming the first carriage in the procession and setting off.

Pan Daoren and Wu Zhi were in the second car, followed by the third car...

As the carriage drove away from the streets of the town, Chen Youniao saw that the place was still in ruins, with collapsed archways, broken stones everywhere, and potholes everywhere...

That night Huamei broke the formation and the great demon Wuxuan escaped from the trap, which really took a lot of effort.

After leaving Xianyi Town, Wu Zhi and others were quite emotional and looked back frequently. Their emotions were complicated, including melancholy, reluctance, and farewell.

All because once you leave, you will never come back.

When people get older and their vigor wanes, people begin to yearn for stability and no longer want to live a life of licking blood. So they want to go home, start a family, marry a wife and have children. That is a happy destination.

Moreover, with the weakening of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, there is not much left in Yunmeng Daze that is worthy of nostalgia.

Xiao Cheng sat on the shaft of the cart, and the cart was pulled by a good horse, which did not need a whip and moved forward steadily. He did not hold a whip in his hand, but a wine bag, and poured a large gulp of wine into his mouth, his face slightly twitching.

Blushing: "Brother Chen, you have been here in Yunmeng not long ago, what do you think of this place?"

Chen Youniao replied: "It is a place outside the world, but it is definitely not a paradise."

Xiao Cheng sighed: "Yes, it's such a pity. If it were a paradise on earth, I wouldn't choose to leave."

Such a big thing happened in Xianyi Town, and a big demon appeared. Even if we don't know the cause and effect, we don't know how it will change in the future, but it is obvious that the town is no longer peaceful. If we stay for two or three more days, Xiao Cheng and others will have already

I was restless, afraid that something would happen at this moment, and I wouldn't be able to leave even if I wanted to.

Fortunately, we finally got through it safely.

Chen Youniao said: "Brother Xiao, after you go back, are you going back to Qingcheng?"

Xiao Cheng nodded and said: "Yes, my wife and I are both disciples of the Qingcheng Sword Sect. Although we belong to the outer sect, we are always relied on. Brother Chen, last time you said you wanted to go north to the capital Shou'an?"

Chen Youniao smiled and replied: "Not bad."

Xiao Cheng was a little puzzled. He found out that Izumo Temple was in Haidai County. It was so far away from the north and south, and it went all the way to Yunmeng Daze. This journey was really far. Could it be that Chen Youniao came here to practice?

This is the only explanation.

Chen Youniao added: "Actually, I went to the capital to take part in the examination?"

"Examination? Could it be the assessment of the Taoist court?"

Xiao Cheng asked.

"No, it's just the imperial examination."

"ah!"

Xiao Cheng was dumbfounded and couldn't accept it. Although he was a swordsman, he had heard about the imperial examination and knew what it was like.

What's going on with a Taoist temple leader who is also a civil servant?

It's really beyond the scope of understanding.

As the saying goes, it is not uncommon to be "both civil and military", but Chen Youniao practiced not only "martial arts", but also "Tao", and he practiced both to a high level.

I can only say that he is a genius.

No wonder he carries a book on his back and looks like a gentleman. As the master of the temple, he does not wear a Taoist robe, but looks like a scholar...

It turns out that I don’t “look like” a scholar at all, but I am really a scholar.

For a moment, Xiao Cheng didn't know what to say. After a while, he said: "Brother Chen, you really opened my eyes. I thought you were an outsider who has no regard for the worldly world."

Chen Youniao chuckled: "Although you can live in seclusion from the world, you can be pure, but there are always some things in your heart that are difficult to calm down. So after thinking about it, you have to join the world. The so-called world outside the world, you can never escape from this heart.

"

Xiao Cheng didn't understand what he heard, but it didn't stop his admiration from flowing out.

What is an expert?

This is.

What's even more wonderful is that he can actually walk side by side with the other person, and even call him "Brother Chen", which is very honorable.

Chen Youniao did not show off specifically, but regarded Xiao Cheng as a friend. Between friends, there is no need to hide some things.

He seemed to realize something, and suddenly raised his head and looked into the sky.

Xiao Cheng asked nervously: "What's wrong?"

"Someone is coming, please don't act rashly for a while."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a whistling sound in the air, and several rainbow lights flashed like stars galloping, causing great commotion.

When Xiao Cheng and others saw this, they were all as silent as a cicada, not even daring to breathe.

Whoosh!

One of the rainbow lights spotted their formation, swooped down and blocked the front.

This is a Taoist nun of unknown age, with cold eyes and a cold expression. She is holding a snow-white whisk in her hand, and the whisk is hanging down in long strands.

The Taoist nun's eyes seemed to be flashing with electric light, and she glanced down at the crowd.

Everyone suddenly seemed to have been exposed and had no clothes on, and the hairs all over their bodies stood on end.

Chilling, that's what it feels like.

At this moment, the Yin Shen in Chen Youniao Niwan Palace trembled and felt fear. It was not that the other party was hostile or murderous, but a simple state of suppression.

The Taoist nun is undoubtedly a real person.

This was not the first time that Chen Youniao had dealt with a real person, but it was the first time that he had encountered the eyes of a real person.

When facing the white-haired master before, the opponent's momentum was as strong as a mountain, but when he noticed the imperial dragon energy in Chen Youniao, he quickly withdrew and stopped being aggressive.

This time it was different. The Taoist nun showed off her strength without any disguise, looking at everyone present like a prisoner.
