On the same day, Pei Zi Yun and Shen Zhen left the county and entered Slow River County. As it was getting late, they found a spacious inn to stay in.
After throwing a tael of silver, the innkeeper brought the servants to feed the horses and served them dinner. They also boiled some hot water. Pei Zi Yun finished his meal and washed his feet. Seeing that it was still early, he went out to take a look. The rooms were very small, and there were twenty of them in total.
After strolling around for a while, he saw that all the houses had lit their oil lamps and that the crowds outside had lessened. Gradually, it became quiet. Only then did he return to his room and sit cross-legged on his bed. Taking out a jade bottle, he took out a spirit pill and swallowed it.
As soon as he swallowed the spiritual pill, it transformed into a warm feeling that flowed through his internal organs. He felt full of vitality. This time, it was different from the last time he took the pill. Spiritual energy rushed up to his head, and he felt a cooling sensation spread throughout his body. He felt his brain becoming clearer and clearer, as he reached his limit. His entire brain was clear and bright, and a divine light flashed through it.
Under the illumination of the divine light, there was not a single part of his body that was obstructed. Everything was clear.
'Tenth level of completion, I've consumed the fifth spiritual pill. At this stage, although there are benefits to consuming it, it won't be of much use. I might as well keep it.' Pei Zi Yun stood up and paced around, 'Ye Su' er is extremely talented, and is already at the seventh level. This spiritual pill won't be of much use to her. '
'If it wasn't for the fact that I can't wait to become the Honorary Disciple, I wouldn't want to use it either.'
'But spiritual pills are really miraculous. There are only five tenth level completion pills. No wonder Daoist Li from the Yellow Monastery wanted to refine them.'
Many years ago, Shen Zhen was in a similar situation. After obtaining the spiritual pill, he broke through to the gates of heaven.
'The most economical and effective way is to give it to those who have lost their vitality. This is a chance to make up for it, and not to add flowers to a brocade.'
Just as he was thinking, there was a knock on the door. Pei Zi Yun opened it and saw a young beggar standing outside. He frowned.
"Young Master, someone just handed you a letter." The young beggar took out a piece of paper and handed it to Pei Zi Yun. Pei Zi Yun took the paper and the beggar ran away.
Pei Zi Yun opened the paper and saw a few words written on it, "Song Zhi wants to harm Ye Su 'er."
Seeing this, Pei Zi Yun's face fell, and his expression darkened.
Who had arranged for the beggar to deliver the letter to him? Why would Song Zhi suddenly want to harm Ye Su'er? His mind was filled with questions.
Furthermore, Ye Su'er was by her aunt's side. No matter how powerful Song Zhi was, how could he fight against an Earth Immortal?
Although the Earth Immortals only had extraordinary powers within the boundaries of the Blessed Land, once they left the Blessed Land, they would still be the top Yin Master!
As he thought about this, he rolled up his sleeves and took out the bracelet of talismans that Ye Su'er had given him. He stretched out his finger and touched the jade beads. With a flash of light, the talisman began to vibrate.
Snail village
Ye Su'er alighted from the ox-cart. It was raining, and she held an umbrella as she walked in. She looked at the familiar village in front of her, and the familiar smell. Her memories seemed to have returned to two years ago, when the bandits had surrounded the village. She was at the end of her road, and the villagers had offered her up in the face of a life and death crisis.
For her sake, Pei Zi Yun had gone out in the middle of the night to kill the bandits.
Ye Su'er entered the village, and the villagers who were guarding the door felt that she looked familiar. They wanted to approach her, but did not dare to ask who she was. Could she be from the Pei family?
Ye Su'er ignored them, and walked straight towards the old mansion, which was located at the corner of the village.
The villagers did not recognize Ye Su'er, and assumed that she was a young lady from a wealthy family, or that she was here to look for the Pei family. The Pei family was the Star of Literature, and it was only natural that a young lady would come looking for them.
In the old mansion, Ye Su'er's house was still there, and was still relatively intact. Ye Su'er pushed open the door, and saw that the three rooms were very small, and seemed very cramped. Every room was separated by a curtain.
The innermost room was the lady's room. Although it was a lady's room, other than a bed, a rice urn, and an old cabinet, there was nothing else. On the table, there was paper, scissors, paste, and a pair of paper shoes. She felt like she had returned to two years ago. Two years ago, she had relied on making shoes to earn a living. Her hands were full of needle marks.
"The room is very clean, and there is no dust. Did you send someone to clean it?"
Ye Su'er mumbled to herself as she walked around the room. Those days were still fresh in her mind. Who knew how much pain she had accumulated in her heart?
After a long time, Ye Su'er walked out of the room. Her house had not changed, but the Pei family had changed. It was no longer a few mud huts, but a huge mansion with a tall Top Scorer Memorial Arch. Above the main door hung a golden plaque. Although the door was closed, one could see the Top Scorer Memorial Arch soaring into the night sky, as if it was about to soar into the sky.
"Brother Pei, you've struck it rich. It's just that the mud huts have changed, and the laughter and laughter of the past have disappeared."
"Su'er, I want to study." At that time, Pei Zi Yun was only nine years old. He was reading a book, and Ye Su'er was covering his eyes as she played games with him.
"Su'er, let's go to the mountains to pick some fruits. Now is the best time for chestnuts to grow." Pei Zi Yun came looking for her with a cloth bag in his hand.
Ye Su'er looked in front of her, and saw a small hill in front of her. She remembered that the two of them liked to sit there and watch the sunset, and talk.
"Su'er, I secretly gave you an egg, you have to eat it!" As he spoke, he was still swallowing his saliva. Actually, she knew that the Pei family was poor at that time, and that the egg was left behind by his mother to nourish his body.
"Eat it, don't be afraid. When I grow up, I want to become an Elementary Scholar, and marry you. You will never have to starve again!" Pei Zi Yun said.
"But brother Pei, have you ever thought about it? I have nothing. I have no parents, no dowry. Once you become an Elementary Scholar, how am I going to marry you?"
"That's why aunt told me to leave with her. I don't want you and your mother to look down on me."
"Do you know that when I heard that the villagers wanted to give me to the bandits, I was in despair. At that time, I was still thinking of giving my body to you, and died with a scissors."
"After I left with aunt, I thought of you every day. Are you well? The weather is getting cold, did anyone help you with your clothes? Did you ever smile at the ladies?"
"Have you ever forgotten the little girl who followed behind you, always holding onto your sleeves and looking at you?"
"You wrote a poem for the Grand Princess, and read that line, 'Looking back, that person is only at the end of the sunset'. Do you know that my tears flowed down. That night, I couldn't sleep, and cried for half the night."
"Actually aunt knew, and that's why she made things difficult for you."
"I waited and waited, and finally you came looking for me."
Ye Su'er held onto her umbrella, and looked at the drizzling rain from afar. She was in a daze, and tears flowed down her cheeks, but her lips curled into a smile.
At this point, she heard a voice, "Is this True Element Sect's junior sister Ye Su'er? I am Free Cloud Sect's Song Zhi. Greetings junior sister."
A man appeared, it was Song Zhi. He looked at Ye Su'er with a fiery gaze. Ye Su'er was in a daze, as her memories were interrupted. She raised her head unhappily and looked at Song Zhi coldly, "I don't know you, and I don't wish to speak to you."
Hearing this, Song Zhi's face changed. His face turned pale, then red. Seeing that Song Zhi had not left, Ye Su'er walked past him and headed back to the house. This man had come looking for her out of the blue, and was acting like this. Ye Su'er did not wish to stay with him. At this point, she felt the jade bead on her arm warm up.
Brother Pei was looking for her. Ye Su'er was overjoyed, but had some questions. She used her finger to touch the jade bead, and a figure appeared in front of her.
"Su'er, where are you now?" Pei Zi Yun asked as soon as he saw the figure appear.
"Brother Pei, I'm at Snail Village!" Ye Su'er called out happily. Song Zhi, who was standing at the side, glared at her fiercely, and his eyes turned red.
Pei Zi Yun looked through the talisman and saw Song Zhi standing behind Ye Su'er. His face changed as he shouted, "Su'er, be careful of Song Zhi. He's going to harm you. Get out of his way."
"What?" Ye Su'er was shocked, and turned around to look. Song Zhi's face was ashen, and his eyes were bloodshot. He smiled malevolently and rushed forward, "Pei Zi Yun, you want to steal my position as the Honorary Disciple, and steal my Free Cloud Sect. Today, I shall steal your woman."
Hearing this, Ye Su'er's face was filled with anger. She grabbed her sword by her side. Pei Zi Yun looked at Song Zhi and was enraged, "Song Zhi, you're courting death!"
Just as Pei Zi Yun shouted out, the jade bead on his talisman vibrated, and Song Zhi's face appeared in front of him. With a "pa" sound, the jade bead broke apart, and the image disappeared.
Peach Blossom Origins Monastery
At the same time, the Sect Leader was holding a teacup in her hands, sipping slowly. Suddenly, she frowned and stood up.
"What's wrong?" The Monastery Leader asked.
The Sect Leader remained silent as she pointed her finger in the air. Suddenly, her face changed, "Not good, something has happened to Ye Su'er. Quick, let's go."
"She must have gone to Snail Village. You're familiar with the route, let's go."
Back in the inn, Pei Zi Yun's face turned ashen. Ye Su'er and Song Zhi must have gotten into a fight, and the situation was extremely dangerous. He grabbed his sword and ran out, shouting for Shen Zhen.
"Young Master Pei, what's wrong?" Shen Zhen rushed out of the room and asked. Pei Zi Yun replied coldly, "Shen Zhen, follow me to Snail Village. They've made a move on my lover."
"What?" Shen Zhen's face changed as well, "Young Master, we're only fifteen kilometers away from Snail Village. We can reach there in fifteen minutes."
The two of them leapt onto their horses as the inn owner shouted from behind. Pei Zi Yun casually took out five taels of silver from his robes and threw it on the ground.
The two of them looked at each other before leaping out of the inn. They were only fifteen kilometers away from Snail Village, and the two of them galloped on their horses.
"Ye Su'er, you must hold on."
"Song Zhi, how dare you do this. Even if I have to fail the Plum Blossom mission, I will kill you."
"It's not fast enough!" Pei Zi Yun's heart was burning with anxiety. He turned his body and pointed at Shen Zhen's horse, then pointed at his own horse. The two horses neighed loudly as they sped up and galloped away.
