199、I'll be there(1/2)
Although their cultivation level is not high now, they are not ordinary people anymore. It is not difficult for them to cross mountains and ridges, and they only need to consume a little spiritual power.
Not long after, they reached the hillside with lights on.
When you see from a distance, this bright place is very unique, with the star-like lights giving people a feeling of noisyness. But after that, the couple realized that it was a little different from what they imagined.
There are indeed many houses built like a village, and they are all made of stone, which makes it feel like a primitive stone tribe.
What surprised them the most was that it was not as lively as they thought.
Seeing that there are many houses, almost every house has light shining through the windows, but it is surprisingly quiet, so quiet that they even feel the sound of their own breathing is exaggerated.
"gully……"
"Don't be afraid, it's your husband." Yu Guhe hugged her shoulder with one hand and put his other hand on his side to prepare to hold the sword at any time.
"I'm not afraid." Ye Qianyuan looked up at his tense side face, feeling a little amused, "I just want to ask how you feel."
"It's weird here, and I can't tell how I feel." Yu Guhe looked down at her, his thin lips curled up lightly, "Are you going?"
"I've come here, of course it depends on the final analysis." Ye Qianyuan also smiled at him.
Yu Guhe hugged her and walked towards the nearest stone house.
Ye Qianyuan was responsible for knocking on the door.
Not long after, the door was opened by someone.
Half of the wrinkled face was revealed from it.
Perhaps because of the backlight, Ye Qianyuan was almost shocked. Fortunately, there was a man beating beside her, so she immediately stabilized her heartbeat and asked softly: "Can you stay here? We are tired from traveling and want to borrow a stay here." As if she was afraid that the other party would object, she continued, "Don't worry, we won't live in vain, we will pay you the spirit stone."
The person in the crack of the door opened the door.
"Come in."
As soon as the door opened, the door became much brighter. With the lights, they also saw clearly the person standing on the inside of the door.
He is an old woman with wrinkles on her face and looks very old.
Just a look...
Perhaps because of the lack of fire, her face was a little dark, and her expression was also very light. Her eyes were drooping to look at the ground. It was obvious that she was not enthusiastic, but she could open the door and showed that she was willing to stay here.
She looked at Yu Guhe, and after her eyes were exchanged, Yu Guhe led her into the door.
This stone house has no courtyard, just a square room, beds, tables and stools are all made of stones, and the dust in the house is a bit heavy. I don’t know if it is caused by the impermeability of the stone house.
"Mother-in-law, are you the only one living here?" Ye Qianyuan asked the old woman after observing the inside of the house.
"Yeah." The old woman stood quietly at the door, her voice so low that it was almost temperatureless, and she had the same expression, staring at the ground.
"Mother-in-law, you lend us your house to live, where will you live?" Ye Qianyuan asked again.
"I'll go live in another house."
"Then how many spirit stones should we give you?"
"casual."
Ye Qianyuan looked at Yu Guhe again, and saw him take out a storage bag from his sleeve, she took it, then walked towards the old woman and handed it to her.
I wanted to take this opportunity to carefully observe the old woman, but she was not polite, so she turned around and walked out after taking the storage bag.
"Mother-in-law." Ye Qianyuan called out anxiously.
"There is something else?" the old woman stopped and asked without looking back.
"There are lights around here, why is it not lively at all?"
"They are all practicing. If you are tired, take a break early. They don't like being disturbed." After the old woman said, she quickly disappeared outside the door.
Ye Qianyuan narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the darkness outside the door, and her eyes suddenly became more sharp.
Yu Guhe walked to her side, closed the door, and then hugged her and walked towards the stone bed.
Even the pillows on the stone bed are all stones, which can be said to be a real stone bed!
"Can this sleep?" Ye Qianyuan couldn't help but curl her lips. Those who didn't know thought it was in primitive society!
"What do you think?" Yu Guhe raised his eyebrows at him with a profound meaning.
Ye Qianyuan frowned.
It's more to say!
This is not something that people live in!
And the old woman just now didn’t look like a normal person!
But they don't look like puppets...
She had seen the puppet and had fought with the puppets. The aura on the puppets was dead and they didn't feel angry at all, just like a walking corpse.
But this old woman is popular with the men she has met in Lingbaoxing, and they can talk to people normally. Compared with the puppets sent by Luo Chun that are full of murderous aura, they are completely different.
"He, do we want to go out for a walk?" she asked in a low voice.
"Then go for a walk."
Yu Guhe hugged her and turned around and walked towards the door.
The dark night sky was not even a little starlight, like a huge black cloth covering the earth. Although there were groups of stone houses around, it was a bit terrifyingly quiet. Almost every stone house had light, but it gave people a silence and weird atmosphere.
However, when they walked past several stone houses like walking and saw the figure sitting in the house through the window, they couldn't help but screen the evil spirit. They were indeed sitting and practicing, and the spiritual energy in this area was indeed richer than other places. It seemed that it was not too much for everyone to keep quiet.
After walking around, no one came out. Even if they were deliberately making some noise, the people in the room were extremely focused.
They originally wanted to find some clues here, but they were so "neglected" here, and they were a little at a loss.
No, to be precise, I don’t know what to do next.
It is obviously not possible for people to be in silence and disturb them rashly. Regardless of whether they are normal or not, this is a taboo for practitioners.
There was no way, they walked around and had to go back to the stone house that the old woman temporarily lent them.
They will definitely not sleep when they sleep. No matter how hearted they are, they will never sleep in such a strange place.
Yu Guhe took out a elixir furnace and some herbs, and began to study alchemy techniques again.
Ye Qianyuan was quietly reading a book next to him. She couldn't help with elixirs, so it was okay to help with elixirs. Many of the elixirs refined by Yu Guhe were eaten like sugar pills by her.
This is his unique pampering, and it is also his extremely luxurious pampering.
"He, do we have all the materials for the Soul Pill?" She suddenly thought of Yu Wenze's situation, so she asked.
"There are still two rare herbs." Yu Guhe frowned slightly, with obvious disappointment in his eyes. "Although my grandfather gave him many kinds of medicinal materials, they are not complete. After all, some medicinal materials are rare in the world, and some people may not have heard of them in their lifetime. I also asked Master Yue, and he said that this kind of medicinal materials is hard to come by, and even the city lord may not be able to buy them."
Ye Qianyuan smiled at him with encouragement: "It's okay, let's look for it slowly. Anyway, I believe the fifth prince will wake up one day."
Yu Guhe's brows became more and more tighter and tighter: "It's okay for the soul pill to be born. At least it is described in my grandfather's book and there are also pill recipes, which shows that this pill has been refined. The most difficult thing is to reshape the body for Gong Wuhong. I checked all my grandfather's books, and not only did they not record them at all, but even the Lord Yue said that it was unheard of it. Unless you take over the body, it would be impossible to do it."
Ye Qianyuan looked puzzled: "But Gong Wuwang seemed to not take over the body and insisted on you help him with his body. Every time this guy spoke, he kept half of his words, and I don't know where he heard it."
"That's why it's embarrassing."
"There is nothing to make things difficult for you." She couldn't help but comfort him, "This kind of thing sounds very unparalleled. If you can just put your body into pieces casually, wouldn't this world be messed up? Besides, our ability is limited now and we have to force us to complete it. This is completely a problem forcing others to do. Although Gong Wuying became like this because of saving me, he should understand our difficulties. We are not ungrateful. If we have a way, we will definitely do it, but we can't do anything that we really can't do. Are you right?"
Save, she will definitely do her best to save it, but she doesn't want him to be under too much pressure.
Yu Guhe stretched out his eyebrows and suddenly smiled evilly: "Yuaner, don't you think this is a challenge? Since Gong Wuwang can say it, that's feasible. If I can really do it one day, I might be famous all over the world and add luster to you at that time."
Ye Qianyuan's mouth twitched, feeling a little amused and crying.
She didn't believe that the body could reshape something like this...
But she can't undermine his enthusiasm. If her own man can study so hard, she, as a wife, should support him. No matter whether she succeeds or not, she will stand beside him!
The next day—
After dawn, they packed up their things and prepared to go outside again.
If you can't observe the people here well at night, then the people here must come out during the day, right?
However, after walking around outside for a while, there was still no one to see!
Driven by curiosity, they peeked through the window again, but found that the whole village was sleeping at home!
There were still three or four people lying on the beds in some stone houses!
Ye Qianyuan was stunned.
"He, what do you think of them? Are there anyone who practices so hard?"
"I don't think we need to stay here." Yu Guhe said with a deep eyebrows.
"Ye Qianyuan understood what he meant. If there was a problem with the people here, they would definitely not be able to see through the tricks. Instead of doing this, it would be better to observe in secret.
The old woman didn't know where she went. They had been walking around twice since last night and now, but she didn't see her.
Since they couldn't find her, they couldn't say hello to her, so they left the village and went down the mountain.
As soon as they went down the mountain, Ye Qianyuan turned around and looked at the hillside, she suddenly became horrified!
"He, look at the spiritual energy here!"
