Chapter 391 Stop practicing Taoism and be an ordinary person
It was getting late when the two returned to Demon Wolf Ridge to meet up with the caravan.
The number of caravans was reduced by one-half.
The scene was messy, with bodies knocked to the ground everywhere.
The smell of blood filled the entire mountain forest.
Xu Yunxian just glanced at it indifferently, then ordered Zhao Zhiyuan to take people to pack things and continue on his way.
A group of more than thirty people continued to move forward under the cover of night.
Most of the caravan's personnel were killed or injured, and the atmosphere seemed particularly dull and depressing.
But for Tang Shi, who was already taciturn, he didn't care much.
She didn't even bother to say a word of self-comfort.
The glorious and tall city gate of Xueyin City appeared in front of them, and the caravan crowd cheered.
This represents the successful end of this business trip.
Each of the caravan guards received their own reward, some took the reward and left, while others stayed.
Tang poetry is one of the things that remains.
She followed Xu Yunxian's caravan to various cities and villages in Qizhou, year after year.
She is also the woman who has followed her the longest in this caravan.
Her cultivation has also risen from the early stage of foundation building to the perfect foundation building, but she has been unable to break through that layer of shackles.
Even though she worked hard and never slacked off, the qualifications of the Four Spiritual Roots still limited her.
If you can get a Spirit Gathering Pill, you might be able to help yourself.
However, Spirit Gathering Pill, something that all foundation-building monks need, is hard to come by. You need to find heavenly materials and earthly treasures to refine it yourself. It is not an easy thing to obtain!
Tang poetry looks at the moon and sighs.
"Sister Ji Huang."
Suddenly he heard someone calling him, and Tang Shi followed the sound.
Die'er, who is also a caravan guard, is standing not far away from him.
Seeing Tang Shi looking at her, she grinned: "Sister Ji Huang, I've thought about it, I won't practice Taoism anymore."
Tang Shi nodded slightly and didn't ask further: "Have you decided?"
Die'er nodded firmly, smiled bitterly, and said, "My understanding is average. With my qualifications of five spiritual roots, no matter how hard I practice, I may not be able to break through the foundation building."
Having said this, Die'er paused for a moment, and her expression became more and more depressed: "Sister Ji Huang, this world is wonderful, but unfortunately, we will never be able to participate with our resources, so I plan to give up."
"what ever."
Tang Shi didn't say anything more.
After all, everyone has their own choices.
"Sister Ji Huang, please stop practicing Taoism. Let's become mortals together, and then find a Taoist companion. We don't seek glory and wealth, but only a peaceful and happy life."
Die'er said longingly: "I have been fighting and killing all day long while practicing Taoism. The days of wandering around are really hard. Even if I put in so much effort, I still can't take the step of forming a pill. It's better to find a Taoist friend to become a partner." , be an ordinary couple, husband and wife, raising children..."
"The eagle strikes the sky and the whale dominates the sea. How can you know the dragon and the earthworm if you don't try? Although I can't form elixir now, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?" Tang Shi interrupted Die'er's words.
Die'er was startled.
Tang Shi continued: "If you want to be an ordinary person, just go as you wish, and I... have my own goals."
"Sister Ji Huang, why are you doing this..."
Die'er gave a bitter smile and advised: "Your talent is not high, why are you obsessed with that kind of path to immortality? That path is too difficult..."
"It's my business."
Tang Shi said calmly: "I want to pursue my own path. No matter how difficult it is, I will have no regrets. Even if I die on the path of my pursuit, I am willing to do so."
"Can......"
Die'er still wanted to persuade her, but Tang Shi was no longer willing to listen to her words.
"Okay, then I wish you, sister, that you get what you want." Die'er sighed and said helplessly.
Later, Die'er left the caravan.
Tang Shi's long eyelashes were drooped, and it was difficult to see the luster under her eyes.
......
Night falls and the bonfire burns.
Everyone in the caravan was sitting around the campfire.
They drank wine and ate meat, with bright smiles on their faces.
The caravan guards chatted more enthusiastically and drank wine.
Commander Zhao Zhiyuan cut off a plate of barbecue and prepared to send it to Xu Yunxian.
Tang Shi sat under the tree, leaning against the trunk and closing his eyes to rest.
Suddenly.
Zhao Zhiyuan's panicked voice came: "The young master is missing!"
Everyone was shocked: "What?!"
"Everyone searches separately, we must find the young master safely!"
Zhao Zhiyuan's face turned pale, he clenched his teeth and shouted: "If you make any mistake, Master, we will have no choice but to die to apologize!"
The caravan instantly exploded.
Several guards rushed around quickly, and the rest dispersed and searched separately.
Tang Shi suddenly opened her eyes.
With a flash of body, he joined the search team.
It was dark at this time, the view was blocked, and the manpower was limited.
At first, the search was carried out in groups of five or six, but gradually, the scope expanded, and we had to work separately in groups of two.
However, Tang Shi always walks alone, and this time is no exception.
She walked deeper into the mountains.
The further you go, the fewer people there are, the vegetation is messy, and occasionally you can see the feces of some monsters.
Tang Shi watched the surroundings vigilantly.
Suddenly, a beast roar resounded throughout the forest.
Immediately afterwards, a huge black tiger rushed out.
The black tiger was extremely fast and rushed to Tang Shi in the blink of an eye.
It opened its mouth and spit out a stream of smelly liquid.
Tang Shi quickly dodged away, his figure erratic, like a ghost.
The black tiger did not stop and charged forward again.
Tang poetry dare not be careless.
Her steps changed, her figure flashed, and she prepared to fight with her sword.
But she suddenly stepped on the ground and fell down.
He quickly reached out and grabbed a thick branch on the edge of the cliff to steady himself.
This is an abyss, and it is pitch black and bottomless.
Tang Shi couldn't help but secretly thought it was a fluke.
"Is that you Ji Huang?"
A male voice sounded from beside him.
Tang Shi raised his head.
I saw Xu Yunxian in a green robe covered in blood, lying on a rock protruding from the cliff. His face was as pale as paper, and there were bright red blood stains on the corners of his mouth.
"Sir?"
Tang Shi's eyes fell on his wound, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly: "Are you injured?"
Without giving the two a chance to chat, Black Tiger rushed forward again.
Every time it takes a step, the ground trembles.
Mud kept falling from above and splashed on Tang Shi's face.
Tang Shi spun around, flew to Xu Yunxian's side, hugged him in his arms, and fell towards the abyss.
I don’t know how long it took, or maybe it was just a moment.
The biting cold water of the cold pool submerged the two of them.
……
When Xu Yunxian was conscious, he felt sore all over, as if a boulder weighing tens of thousands of kilograms was pressing on his back, making him unable to breathe smoothly and almost suffocating.
When he opened his eyes in a daze, he saw dancing firelight.
By the fire.
She was still the same woman in that plain dress sitting there with her back to him.
The flames danced around her, making her cheeks white and crystal clear, as if they were transparent.
She stared at the bonfire quietly, seemingly unaware that she had woken up.
