Chapter 97: Mountain Gate Reunion

Chapter 97 - Mountain Gate Reunion

Lu Chen glanced at Yi Xin and said, "Why do you ask that?"

Yi Xin lowered her head silently, and after a long while, said in a low voice: "It's nothing, I just suddenly felt that what you think, Brother Lu, is so far away, so powerful."

"Do you regret asking me to help you?"

Yi Xin's body shook slightly, and quickly shook her head: "No, no, no, I didn't mean that. You helped me for my own good, I know that. I ...... I appreciate you from the bottom of my heart, I especially ......"

"You remember that you promised to do something for me before?" Lu Chen suddenly interrupted her.

Yi Xin was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Yes."

Lu Chen said indifferently, "That's good. After this incident, no matter what, the Hundred Herb Hall will look at you more highly, plus you were originally someone who was looked at by Dongfang Tao, and your natural talent is not bad, so your position here in the Hundred Herb Hall will be much better than now. This is good for you and me."

Yi Xin was dumbfounded, and for a moment did not know what to say, while Lu Chen stood up and said, "It's getting late, you should rest early, I'm leaving."

Yi Xin's heart moved, and said: "Brother Lu, I remember there are guards outside, how did you get in ......"

Standing in the darkness, Lu Chen smiled slightly, but didn't answer her words. He stepped back and quickly merged into the darkness. Yi Xin opened her eyes wide and looked into the darkness, only to see faint ripples suddenly appearing on the seemingly quiet water in the deep darkness, and when she looked carefully, there was no one there.

Silently shuttling through the darkness, the shadow like the moon was erratic, coming down from the stone pan mountain without anyone noticing. Lu Chen looked up at the night, and saw that it was already late at night, and when it was still past, it was already the curfew time in the Kunlun School.

Speaking of this curfew, it is a unique rule in the Kunlun sect, and there are generally few such restrictions in other cultivation sects. After all, the monks who practice immortality and Dao are all powerful and energetic, and it is often not a big deal even if they stay up all day and night. But in the Kunlun School, this rule of prohibiting disciples from going out after midnight has been around for a long time. It is said that it can even be traced back to the time when the Kunlun School was founded, which has a history of thousands of years.

In short, the Kunlun sect is a well-known sect with many rules, and the name that restrains the disciples from concentrating on their practice is actually not particularly strange, so they have persisted year after year.

But the so-called curfew, of course, cannot be completely deserted. If such a large mountain range and such a large site were not guarded and patrolled, wouldn't it be wiped out by countless thieves long ago? Therefore, in the dark night, although the nearby mountain road is quiet, occasionally a team of patrolling guards will pass by.

Lu Chen walked quietly on the mountain road. When there were guards, he would often hide in advance, and those guard disciples who were at least at the Foundation Establishment level seemed to have never found such a low-level handyman disciple like him. Still out and about at this late hour of the night.

The Stone Pan mountain is the place where the official disciples of Hundred Herb Hall live. The place where the handyman disciples live is still some distance away. As Lu Chen was walking, he passed a fork in the road after a while, and a stone step went up from the side of the mountain road. Extending away, Lu Chen's footsteps paused, and then he remembered that this was the mountain pavilion where Yi Xin met late at night a few days ago.

Thinking about what was said that night and Yi Xin's appearance at that time, and thinking about how things have turned upside down after only a few days. Lu Chen was also a little emotional, but he didn't mean to stop, and continued to step forward.

The sound of footsteps gradually receded, and Lu Chen's figure also disappeared into the darkness. However, after a while, when the cold night wind blew past in this silent mountain forest, he suddenly came from the dark pavilion on the mountainside. Inside, a vague figure stepped out.

The figure looked like a slim woman, because it was too dark to see her face. He only vaguely saw her standing on the edge of the mountain pavilion, gazing in the direction of the way of Lu Chen below. The night breeze blew, her clothes and hair floated slightly, a bright color swept through the night, a red feather shawl draped over her shoulders.

She stood silently in the dark, and after a while, she turned around and walked towards the top of the mountain.

Life in Kunlun Mountains calmed down again. The He brothers retreated in seclusion and leftthe mountain, and then this incident was quickly forgotten, and everyone began to live the same leisurely life as in the past, cultivating immortals and practicing Dao for competitions.

In the spiritual field under the stone pan mountain, those various kinds of spiritual plants also reached the time of ripening, the hundred herb hall familiarly sent people down to take the harvest, and then according to the rules, the surplus harvest of spiritual plants to the handyman disciples, and then the scene exchange, basically every harvest is exchanged for spiritual stones.

The number of spirit stones varies, but this is the first time that most of the handyman disciples have spare money on hand, so before starting the next batch of spirit field planting, they have half a month to live comfortably, and many of them are already thinking about what spiritual pills they should exchange to aid their cultivation, or to inquire if there are better cultivation techniques to buy here in the sect.

Lu Chen's harvest was also good. He got 30 spirit stones, which is quite a lot among the handyman disciples. But before the stones were warm in his arms, an unexpected guest found him.

"A treat, Brother Lu!" When Yi Xin found Lu Chen, he was smiling and seemed to even narrow his eyes.

Although Yi Xin looked a little distracted during the night before she was injured, as her injury improved, she still secretly looked at Lu Chen differently and secretly treated him as her most trustworthy friend, often sneaking in to talk to him.

On this day the spirit stone was issued, Yi Xin came to the door to play in the autumn wind.

Lu Chen gave the smiling girl an angry look, and said, "Your family is obviously rich, why do you always think about me, a poor man?"

Yi Xin laughed: "That's different, it smells especially good to eat your treats."

Lu Chen said, "...... you have learned bad ah."

Yi Xin pulled him away and said: "That's what I learned from you, stop talking nonsense, go quickly. Besides, I haven't seen Ah Tu for a long time. You always say that it is not easy to go up the mountain and you leave it in Kunwu city, it's so pitiful."

Lu Chen couldn't argue with her, so he had to go with her, but he hadn't gone down the mountain for a while, and he just wanted to find some free time to visit Lao Ma. The two of them walked all the way to the southern foot of the Kunlun School, and when they were about to pass under the towering and majestic archway of the mountain gate, they suddenly saw a burst of noise coming from below, and the Kunlun disciples who were walking in front suddenly moved away. A road came out, and then a group of people came up.

Lu Chen and Yi Xin didn't know why and had some doubts, but still went with the flow of the crowd and stood aside. Not long after, the group of people walked past them. The leader is an old man, crane-haired and immortal, the aura is really extraordinary, it seems to be a Daoist master; His aura was really extraordinary. Beside him, there was a little girl, about ten years old, with an airy temperament and a beautiful appearance, and the most surprising thing was that at such a young age, she seemed to have a cool and holy aura, like a white lotus on a snow peak, making people afraid to get close.

Lu Chen stood watching, suddenly frowned slightly, his gaze fell on the young girl's face, but found that this seems like the pride of heaven like a holy and incomparable little girl, he had seen before.
