"We can't go deeper. Why?"
Jiang Xiaofan was curious.
Ye Qingrou said, "I'm not sure. Grandpa said not to go deeper. It's dangerous."
"Oh."
Jiang Xiaofan nodded.
He didn't ask anything and followed the girl into the mountain.
The mountain wasn't very vast. There were many strange flowers and plants. Jiang Xiaofan followed the girl. Soon, the girl stopped in a more open area.
"This is the place?"
Jiang Xiaofan looked ahead.
"En."
Ye Qingrou nodded.
She squatted down and rolled up her white dress to look for herbs.
"Yiya!"
Huang Huang jumped down from Jiang Xiaofan's head and followed behind Ye Qingrou.
Jiang Xiaofan looked around and couldn't help but be a little surprised. This place really did have a lot of mysterious things. Some of the medicinal herbs had even reached the level of Ancient Medicine King, and there were a lot of them.
"This …"
He was surprised.
Although the Ancient Medicine King wasn't too precious, it couldn't be so common either. He casually scanned the area and found at least 100 immortal herbs that were comparable to the Ancient Medicine King within a radius of 10,000 feet.
This mountain was not ordinary!
"Jiang Xiaofan, medicine basket."
Ye Qingrou's voice came from the front.
Jiang Xiaofan came back to his senses. He took the medicine basket from his back and gave it to Ye Qingrou.
"You probably don't know these things. Rest on the side."
Ye Qingrou said.
Picking herbs wasn't just about finding a target and pulling it out. There was a special method to pick herbs. This method didn't destroy the characteristics of the herbs. It wasn't a simple task.
She felt that Jiang Xiaofan shouldn't know how to pick herbs.
Looking at the girl, Jiang Xiaofan couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was a Heavenly Dao. Although his strength was gone, how could he not know how to pick herbs?
"No problem, I know a little."
He said.
He walked to the side and found a strange flower at the root of an old tree. Its petals were three different colors and its stamen was exposed. It emitted a faint fragrance.
"Three Leaf Grass, Ancient Medicine King. It can slow down aging."
Jiang Xiaofan said to himself.
He made a few simple movements. He didn't even touch the soil below the Three Leaf Grass. The Three Leaf Grass was picked by him. Ye Qingrou kept looking at Jiang Xiaofan. At this moment, she was surprised. Jiang Xiaofan's movements were too skillful. Clearly, he was very proficient in this.
"Expert.
She smiled.
Her smile was very peaceful, just like a fairy.
"Just a little.
Jiang Xiaofan said.
Ye Qingrou didn't correct Jiang Xiaofan's "a little" and continued to pick herbs.
Jiang Xiaofan also put the Three Leaf Clover into the medicine basket. He squatted in the forest and pushed aside some ordinary grass, picking up some valuable herbs one by one. A moment later, he silently picked all the precious Ancient Medicine King level herbs within a radius of a thousand feet, filling the area with a fragrant aroma.
"Too much."
Ye Qingrou smiled bitterly.
Huanghuang jumped from Ye Qingrou's side and lay next to the medicine basket. Her eyes were watery as she stared at the thousand year old Fire Spirit Mushroom in the medicine basket.
"Yiya."
The little guy looked at Jiang Xiaofan and called out in a flattering manner.
Jiang Xiaofan smiled and took out the Fire Spirit Mushroom from the medicine basket and handed it to the little guy.
"Yiya!"
The little guy hugged the Fire Spirit Mushroom that was taller than him and showed an intoxicated expression.
This Fire Spirit Mushroom was already at the peak of the Ancient Medicine King level. It only needed a little bit more to evolve into a divine medicine. One had to admit that this world was truly extraordinary. Jiang Xiaofan was astonished because the spirit energy here was too dense.
Ye Qingrou arranged the herbs on the side. Jiang Xiaofan had nothing to do and sat down.
He looked at the blue sky and clenched his right hand. He couldn't feel any divine power flowing in his body. Only his powerful physique remained.
"Now, what should I do? Cultivate again? "
He muttered in his mind.
He was not in a hurry after losing his power. He used the Reincarnation Art to seal this universe. Even if Qiu Tian and the others worked together, they wouldn't be able to find it. Moreover, if Huang Tian and the others wanted to come out, they would have to reach the peak of the Heavenly Dao. He believed that they wouldn't be able to reach this height so quickly.
Thus, he had enough time to find his own power.
For the time being, he didn't want to leave this place. The small village only had the four living old men, the elegant Ye Qingrou, and the cute little guy Huang Huang. It was not a bad choice for him to stay here.
He wanted to recover his power here.
Cultivate again?
Jiang Xiaofan shook his head. He didn't know how long it would take to cultivate again and reach the peak of the Heavenly Dao from here. It would take at least ten thousand years. He couldn't afford to waste so much time.
"What are you thinking about?"
A gentle voice came.
Jiang Xiaofan raised his head. He didn't know when Ye Qingrou was standing in front of him. He didn't even notice her. He couldn't help but bitterly smile and secretly shake his head. Was he so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't even notice an ordinary girl standing next to him?
He raised his head and saw Ye Qingrou bending down to look at him. He saw an extremely delicate face, as if it was the most perfect masterpiece of the heavens. A strand of black hair fluttered down. Ye Qingrou blinked her eyes. She looked very lovely.
Jiang Xiaofan was startled.
Ye Qingrou noticed Jiang Xiaofan's strange behavior and quietly took a step back.
"Sorry."
Jiang Xiaofan was a bit embarrassed.
Ye Qingrou still had a faint smile on her face. She said to Jiang Xiaofan: "I've already picked a lot today. Compared to before, with your help this time, the results are much better. We can go back now."
Saying that, she carried the medicine basket and walked back.
"I'll do it."
Jiang Xiaofan said.
He took the medicine basket from Ye Qingrou's hand and carried it on his back. He followed behind the girl.
"Yiya!"
Huang Huang jumped on top of Jiang Xiaofan's head. It had already eaten two-thirds of the Fire Lingzhi.
"Greedy little guy."
Jiang Xiaofan laughed.
He followed behind Ye Qingrou and walked out of the forest.
Dong!
At this time, a strange vibration came from the depths of the immortal mountain. Jiang Xiaofan's footsteps suddenly stopped. He looked towards the depths of the immortal mountain.
The depths of the immortal mountain were shrouded in clouds and mist. He couldn't see clearly and didn't know where it was. Jiang Xiaofan's eyes flickered. Just now, he clearly felt a special aura. That aura seemed very familiar.
"What's wrong?"
Ye Qingrou tilted her head.
Jiang Xiaofan retracted his gaze and shook his head: "Nothing, let's go."
He stayed in the village for a day. Whether it was old man Ye or Ye Qingrou, he didn't feel the slightest bit of energy from them. They were just not ordinary mortals. So, he didn't tell Ye Qingrou about the strangeness of the immortal mountain. He didn't want to break their understanding of the world.
Ye Qingrou was in front and Jiang Xiaofan was behind her. Huang Huang would squeak from time to time.
"Qingrou, did your grandfather tell you why the depths of the immortal mountain are dangerous?"
Jiang Xiaofan asked.
Ye Qingrou's footsteps paused. She turned her head and looked at Jiang Xiaofan.
She secretly thought that calling her "Qingrou" was a bit too intimate.
"Is it inconvenient to say?"
Jiang Xiaofan was a bit slow on this point. He thought that this question involved the taboo of the village.
Although the time they spent together wasn't long, Jiang Xiaofan also knew that the village regarded this mountain as the immortal mountain. Under normal circumstances, if he talked about the immortal mountain, it might touch on some taboo of the village.
"It's nothing." Ye Qingrou calmed down quickly. She turned and continued walking towards the village. As she walked, she said: "I don't know what exactly the danger is. But grandfather said that ordinary people shouldn't go there."
"That's it?"
"That's it."
Jiang Xiaofan replied with an "oh" and then fell silent.
Ye Qingrou stopped and looked at Jiang Xiaofan: "Why are you asking so much? Do you want to go in?"
Jiang Xiaofan didn't know what to say.
This girl was too smart.
"Let's go."
Ye Qingrou opened her mouth and didn't say anything else. She quietly walked forward.
Soon, the village appeared. Jiang Xiaofan followed Ye Qingrou into the village. The four old men were still drinking tea at the stone table in the center of the village. They seemed very satisfied.
Seeing the two of them return, the four old men all raised their heads.
"Old Man Ye, your granddaughter and grandson-in-law are back."
The old man said.
Ye Qingrou didn't change her pace. She glanced at the old man and said: "Jiang Xiaofan, put down the medicine basket and come help in the kitchen. Only cook for five people, it'll be faster. "
Hearing this, the old man's face instantly turned sour.
There were only five people in the village. Now, with Jiang Xiaofan, there were six people. Usually, Ye Qingrou was the one cooking. Now that she said she would only cook for five people, it was obvious that she left his share behind.
"…"
Jiang Xiaofan followed behind Ye Qingrou. He couldn't help but blush with shame. This side of Ye Qingrou was really cute, especially when compared to her quiet temperament. It was even cuter.
After dinner, the night quickly turned dark. Jiang Xiaofan lay alone in the small house. He looked up at the roof of the house. After a while, he stood up.
He carefully walked out of the house and looked at the village. Then, he walked out of the village.
He wanted to go to a place.
In the depths of the immortal mountain.
His cultivation was no longer there, but his tyrannical body was still there. Normal dangers couldn't do anything to him. The most important thing was that he felt a familiar fluctuation in the immortal mountain. It was as if there was some kind of aura calling out to him.
The immortal mountain was regarded as a sacred mountain by the village. Jiang Xiaofan originally didn't want to disturb it, but that aura was really hard to forget. Taking advantage of the night when everyone was asleep, he thought that he should be able to return in a few hours.
Walking out of the village, his speed gradually increased. One step was several hundred meters, and he quickly disappeared.
What he didn't know was that during this process, on top of a house in the village, a graceful figure was watching him. Her watery eyes were very beautiful. Under the moonlight, they emitted a faint holy light.
