"Huh?"
There was a change in the field. Liang Yan's heart moved and he stopped killing the insects. He took all four sword lights back to him and only used them for defense.
Hongyun, Gui Wuqi, and Qiu Tianmo also restrained their spells. The four of them gathered together and watched the changes.
The melodious sound of the flute comes from afar, across valleys and streams, and deep into the dense forest, reaching everyone's ears clearly.
The faces of the peak masters of the Thirty-Six Peaks changed drastically at this moment. They all looked at each other and gave orders in unison:
"Stop!"
The next moment, whether it was golden thread silkworms, core borers, moonlight bugs, or mountain moving bugs, almost all the insects stopped moving forward and lay dumbly on the spot.
Not long after, a white cloud floated down from the mountainside, and in a blink of an eye, it entered the dense forest and flew towards the crowd.
The peak master of Thirty-six Peaks saw it from a distance, immediately knelt down on his knees, and paid homage in the direction of the white cloud with an almost pious attitude.
“See the Holy Messenger!”
"Holy envoy?" Liang Yan thought, exchanged glances with Gui Wuqi and others, and finally looked at Mo.
“Don’t look at me.” Mo Ye was helpless and smiled bitterly: “I am not an insect-control monk, and my understanding of them is only superficial, but I have never heard of them before. For the position of 'Holy Envoy', we only know that they have the Peak Master of the 128th Peak and the seven elders of Qingcang Mountain."
While they were talking, the white cloud had arrived on the battlefield.
As the clouds and fog gradually dissipated, the appearance of the person was revealed. She was actually a graceful woman in green clothes.
This woman has a delicate face, eyebrows like distant mountains, and eyes like autumn water. Her long hair is coiled behind her head and fixed with a jade hairpin, making her look fresh and refined.
Behind her were two girls, one holding a flower basket and the other holding a jade vase. They had bright eyes, white teeth, and delicate bells. Although they were also short in stature, they were completely different from ordinary insect-controlling monks.
“I didn’t know that the holy envoy was here, but we were disappointed in our welcome. Please forgive me!” The red-nosed old man was the first to speak, with a very humble tone.
The woman in green glanced at him and laughed softly: "Master Hongyue Peak, there is no need to be polite. I am just here to convey a message to the Holy Master."
The red-nosed old man listened. Finally, his face changed and he raised his head He buried himself even lower and said respectfully: "I wonder what the Holy Master's Queen's orders are?"
"The Queen has said that we have distinguished guests coming from Qingcang Mountain, and we ask everyone not to be embarrassed and let the distinguished guests go to the Holy Palace."
As soon as these words came out, the peak masters of the thirty-sixth peak were stunned for a moment.
Soon, the red-nosed old man came to his senses and said in surprise: "The Holy Envoy is not mistaken, is he? The four of them are outsiders and are mortal enemies of us. Now they have invaded the Insect King Conference without permission. How can we let them go to the Holy Palace?"
"Yes, they were killing people here just now, and the insects in our hands were not killed or injured. No matter what, this revenge must be avenged!"
"Lord Holy Envoy, the Wu clan came to attack us not long ago. Although we were forced to retreat by the clan leader, we still lost a lot of people in this group of Nanxuan monks. When this time comes, it is obvious that he wants to take advantage of the situation, and he is uneasy!"
"The Holy Envoy should think twice!"
The peak masters of the Thirty-Six Peaks all spoke at this moment. They persuaded the woman in green not to let Liang Yan leave.
The woman listened silently for a while, and her face gradually turned cold.
“That’s enough!”
She suddenly interrupted. Although her voice was not loud, the peak masters of the Thirty-Six Peaks were actually frightened and they all shut up.
After a moment of silence, the woman in green took out a token from her sleeve and held it high.
Liang Yan looked at it intently and saw a flower carved on the front of the token. It was so delicate and beautiful!
"You all recognize this, right?" the woman in green said in a deep voice.
"I recognize it, I recognize it." The peak master of the Thirty-Six Peaks nodded hurriedly.
"Since you recognize the token, you should know that what I mean is what the Holy Master Empress meant. The Empress said she would take this person up the mountain, let him go or not? You can decide for yourself!"
< br>"this"
The peak masters of the thirty-sixth peak were all kneeling on the ground, with their heads lowered. You looked at me, I looked at you, but no one dared to stand up and speak at this time.
After a long time, the red-nosed old man coughed and said with a smile: "The Holy Envoy is just joking. Since it is the order of the empress, how dare we disobey it? But I have a question. Does the patriarch know about the fact that monk Nanxuan went up the mountain? "
The woman in green sneered: "What if the patriarch knows? Can he still disobey the queen? I don’t have time to talk nonsense with you now. If you insist on not letting me go, I will go back and report to the queen.”
“No, no!”
The red-nosed old man was in a hurry. Waving his hands, he said with a smile: "The Holy Envoy is joking, the Queen's will is greater than the sky! We and other tribesmen respect the Queen's decree. Since she wants Nanxuan monks to go up the mountain, how dare we disobey?"
"Hmph! I'm sorry you don't dare to disobey."
The woman in green snorted coldly, then activated the escape light and landed lightly in front of Liang Yan.
She bowed to Liang Yan Yingying, changed her previous indifferent attitude, and laughed softly: "The little girl is Su Xiaoqian, the messenger of the Holy Palace. The distinguished guest is here, and I am not welcome at a distance. Please don't blame me, Commander. "
Seeing her gentle attitude, Liang Yan couldn't help but secretly marveled in his heart.
“Fellow Daoist Su is too polite. It was Liang who came uninvited and disturbed your people’s Insect King Conference. I should be the one to apologize.”
"It doesn't matter, the Insect King Conference is not in a hurry."
Su Xiaoqian smiled slightly, and her voice was clear and sweet: "The thirty-six peak masters such as Hong Yue and Tian Qian did not intend to target the commander. It's just that our clan was attacked by the Witch Clan not long ago. Although they were repelled under the leadership of the Holy Master, the losses were not small. Therefore, they were all frightened and feared that you were also here to attack. This is a surprise. "There's a misunderstanding."
After hearing this, Liang Yan laughed and said, "Liang said there was a misunderstanding a long time ago, but they didn't believe it. Now that I have met fellow Taoist, I know there is a reason." "
"The handsome man's magnanimity is indeed extraordinary."
Su Xiaoqian smiled sweetly, raised her hand and made a spell, which fell into the flower basket held by the girl behind her. .
As she silently recited a spell, the flower basket flew out from the girl's hand, instantly enlarging hundreds of times, turning into a boat, suspended in mid-air.
"Commander, please."
Su Xiaoqian leaned over and made a "please" gesture.
Liang Yan did not leave immediately, but carefully examined the "painted boat" in front of him.
This is actually not a real painting boat, but a combination of countless bugs the size of fingernails. These insects are colorful and emit floral fragrance, making the "painting boat" overflowing with fragrance. Su Xiaoqian saw the doubts in his heart and said with a smile: "This is our clan's 'swimming river insect'. It can fly in the Black Mountain Territory. There are a total of 23.86 million here. It can greatly shorten our journey on the road." Time spent.”
After hearing this, Liang Yan's eyes flashed.
“There are such alien insects!”
You must know that there is no way to fly in the Black Mountain Territory. Even the ancestors with advanced cultivation can only be hundreds of feet above the ground. Unexpectedly, there is such an insect that can fly freely in the Black Mountain Domain.
After pondering for a moment, Liang Yan did not hesitate anymore and returned a salute to Su Xiaoqian with a fist, and then stepped onto the boat.
Hong Yun, Gui Wuqi, and Qiu Tianmo, all led by him, didn't say much when they saw this, and silently followed Liang Yan on the "boat".
Su Xiaoqian smiled slightly and landed on the bow of the boat.
Before leaving, he glanced down again and saw that the peak masters of the thirty-six peaks, including Hongyue and Tianqiu, were still kneeling on the ground and did not dare to get up. So he smiled and said: "Every peak master should go his own way. As we perform our duties, the Black Mountain Territory is currently in turmoil, foreign enemies are invading, and the eight tribes are in civil strife. You must not take it lightly."
"Don't worry, Holy Envoy, we have the duty to protect the Holy Palace," Hongyue and others said in unison. road.
“Okay.”
Su Xiaoqian nodded with great satisfaction, then waved her sleeves, and thirty-six purple-red pills flew out from the sleeves, landing accurately in the hands of each peak master.
"These are this month's 'Holy Pills', you all take them."
"Holy Pills!"
At this moment, Thirty-Six Peaks' The peak masters all showed surprise.
Especially the red-nosed old man, whose hands holding the elixir trembled slightly, as if he had seen a life-saving straw, and his face was filled with excitement.
Without any hesitation, the thirty-six peak masters swallowed the elixir into their bellies at the same time. They didn't even have time to refine it with their spiritual power. They immediately prostrated on the ground and respectfully said in a humble voice: "Thank you, the empress, for the elixir!"
"You can take care of yourself."
Su Xiaoqian dropped these words, He no longer looked at the people at Thirty-Six Peaks, raised his hand to cast a spell, and the "painting boat" under his feet slowly rose into the air, and finally turned into a stream of light, flying towards the direction of Qingcang Mountain
"Youjiang Chong" Sure enough, it was a strange insect. It was not affected by the Black Mountain Domain and led Liang Yan and others to fly into the sky at extremely fast speeds.
The territory of the Zerg Control Tribe is somewhat special. There are 128 peaks on the periphery, surrounding the holy mountain in the middle, presenting a landscape like stars and moons.
In about half an hour, everyone had crossed the surrounding peaks.
Liang Yan sat in the "painted boat" and looked around, only to see a vast forest in front of him, with a black mountain peak rising from the ground in the middle of the forest.
This mountain is towering into the clouds, magnificent and majestic. It is different from the previous 128 peaks. It seems like an ancient stone pillar, mysterious and vicissitudes of life.
“Ahead is the Holy Mountain of our clan.”
Su Xiaoqian suddenly said: “The annual sacrificial activities and the finals of the Insect King Conference are all held on the Holy Mountain. As for the Holy Mountain, At the top of the mountain is the dojo where the Holy Master empress practices.”
When Liang Yan heard her take the initiative to speak, her heart moved and she asked with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Su, I have something unclear. How did your Holy Master know that Liang would come?"
After hearing this, Su Xiaoqian chuckled and said : "The Holy Master is omniscient and omnipotent, what's the point? How strange? Even when the Witch Clan came for a sneak attack, the Queen discovered it in advance and led us to set up a secret ambush, causing them a big loss!"
"So, your Holy Master Queen can predict things before they happen! "Really?" Liang Yan said in a surprised tone.
“Don’t believe it, it’s the fact. The Witch Clan has ushered in the ‘Witch God’, and they think they are getting something, but they don’t know that our Zerg Clan has already welcomed the ‘Holy Lord Empress’. Under our leadership, the other seven tribes are no match for us."
A trace of arrogance flashed in Su Xiaoqian's eyes, and then she thought of something, glanced at Liang Yan, and said with a faint smile:
"My Majesty is so beautiful that there are few men who cannot be moved by her, but these men usually don't end up well. So I kindly advise you, don't have any wrong thoughts after you see your face. ”
After hearing this, Liang Yan laughed, haha He smiled and said: "I am the coach of Nanxuan. I am here for negotiation. How can I be obsessed with beauty? The girl is looking down on me."
"It's best."
Su Xiaoqian was noncommittal. , turned around and concentrated on controlling the flight of the "Riverworm".
After a while, the boat approached the holy mountain and slowly landed on the mountainside.
There is a simple and elegant villa here. From a distance, it looks like blue bricks and black tiles, shrouded in mist, and you can faintly see the attics in the villa. There are towering ancient trees, birds singing, flowers fragrant, and countless rockeries and rocks.
Liang Yan's consciousness was sharp, and through the mist, he saw a plaque hanging high on the gate of the villa, with the three characters "Guiyunju" written on it.
“This is the place where our Zerg Controller tribe entertains distinguished guests. Fellow Taoists, you can sit here and enjoy our tribe’s specialty ‘spitting tea’.” Su Xiaoqian introduced to the four of them with a smile.
"Thank you very much."
Everyone thanked them, followed Su Xiaoqian into the villa, and sat down in an elegant guest room.
Not long after, four female nuns walked into the room one after another, each holding a tray with a cup of spiritual tea on it.
This tea is very special. There is constantly spraying mist from the tea cup, as if someone is puffing away the mist.
The mist condenses over the tea cup, and different scenes appear faintly, some are bamboo forests, some are peach forests, and some are apricot forests. As the clouds and mist roll, these woods are also looming, like a paradise in a secret realm, which is intoxicating.
“It’s really magical!” Liang Yan exclaimed in admiration.
Su Xiaoqian smiled slightly and said: "The main raw material of this mist-spitting tea is spitted by the 'cloud-mist insect'. This insect has a very short lifespan, but it can absorb the aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, and run the Seven Seven Four in the body. Nineteen days later, it turns into clouds and spits out, and then disappears between heaven and earth. To make a cup of spitting tea, it takes 9999 "cloud insects", so it is extremely precious and is only used to entertain distinguished guests. ”
"There are such strange insects between heaven and earth?" Gui Wuqi clicked his tongue in surprise, his eyes rolling on the tea cup in front of him.
Su Xiaoqian added: "Tummy tea can enhance the monk's affinity for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It can also improve the meridians and increase the power of qi and blood. However, the longer it is stored, the worse the effect will be. You can take advantage of it as soon as possible. Enjoy the tea."
"In that case, it would be disrespectful."
Liang Yan had already checked it with his spiritual sense and confirmed that there was no manipulation in the tea cup, so he drank with confidence. Down.
After taking the spirit tea, there was indeed a warm breath flowing through the meridians, which slightly improved the power of his qi and blood. However, Liang Yan's Qi and blood were already very strong, so this level of improvement could only be regarded as dispensable.
Gui Wuqi and others were hesitant at first, but seeing Liang Yan drinking it so readily, they all followed suit.
Soon, the faces of these people showed surprise. Although Tuwu Tea had little effect on Liang Yan, it was a big opportunity for them!
