Chapter 21 Farewell (Part )

Time flies, and it has been more than a month.

There were not so many twists and turns on the way to send Bai Ping back to the mountain gate. They quickly arrived at Yangchun County, bought a good horse, and ran over.

The horses in this world are not very fuel-efficient. It is said that they can travel 400 miles a day, and 800 miles day and night.

Gao Jian was shocked when he heard this. This horse only cost more than 2,000 yuan, which was affordable for an ordinary person with half a year or a year's income.

The cost of raising a horse is a bit high. It needs to be mixed with spiritual herbs and some fine grains. Even if the horse doesn't run much in a year, it will cost one or two thousand coins, which is not cheap.

It is said that this is just an ordinary horse. There are also more advanced monster-beast hybrids that can easily make rapid progress in a day.

Afterwards, the two of them rode on one horse and rushed all the way back to the mountain gate without stopping.

They rushed back to the mountain gate of Zhenjing Taoist Palace, and traveled a distance of 15,000 miles in just one month!

We have to travel hundreds of miles every day.

Even though he fed the horse a lot of spiritual herbs and medicinal materials along the way, and high-quality spiritual rice that ordinary people couldn't afford, and even when they were in the wild, Gao Jian found a way to get a few magic bird eggs for him as a snack, the horse was still tired and thin.

When the horse arrived at the mountain gate, it looked like a skeleton covered with a layer of horse skin, which was a bit scary.

How to put it, Gao Jian always felt that the way this horse looked at him was a bit resentful.

But Gao Jian could only shrug his shoulders.

He had no choice. In fact, he had lost a lot of weight and became darker. The horse couldn't bear to travel like this, and not even he could bear it. Gao Jian felt like he was about to die.

Ma spent all of Bai Ping's money, and later Gao Jian and he could only rely on hunting and picking fruits for food.

However, under such circumstances, Bai Ping is still fair and tender, without any change. It is said that the health-preserving effect of his martial arts makes Gao Jian very envious.

Practice the Dharma, practice the Dharma.

However, after all this suffering, it’s finally... here.

Along the way, Bai Ping also told Gao Jian a lot of knowledge about this world.

For example, the Qiyun Divine Dynasty has a total of ten states with countless populations.

There are also the effects of practicing the three gates and nine acupoints and each acupoint.

For example, many local customs and practices, common sense of spiritual practice, various methods of identifying demons and evil spirits, etc.

Gao Jian was very eager about this and kept it in mind.

Moreover, perhaps it was a coincidence, or perhaps the Shangshu knew about this, the gate of the Zhenjing Taoist Palace was in Cangzhou, about two thousand miles away from the capital of Cangzhou.

Two thousand miles is actually not far at all. It only takes a few days to travel on horseback.

"Huh, we're here." Gao Jian relaxed after Bai Ping said this.

The horse under his feet seemed to understand and collapsed directly, lying on the ground, unwilling to move at all.

Takami looked around.

There were green mountains all around, and there didn't seem to be anything magical about the place they were in.

But Bai Ping had a brilliant idea. He forcibly led the horse to the foot of the mountain and performed some magic.

In just a moment, the clouds cleared and the sun came out!
The originally ordinary mountain turned out to be just an illusion.

After making a gesture, the illusions around him disappeared.

The pavilions are exquisite and the clouds rise up, while the mountains appear in the void.

You can see that there are many floating islands in the sky, like "sacred peaks".

These spiritual peaks were suspended in their own midair, slowly moving, and according to fixed rules, they faintly revealed a "formation". Gao Jian didn't know what the formation should look like, but he felt that way.

In addition to these, there are numerous hanging talismans, one layer after another. You can see many flying magic weapons in the sky, some are birds, some are ships, some are gourds, and some are long swords.

Of course, more people used the light body technique to float up and ride the wind, but Gao Jian could also see that these people were probably people who could not afford a magical means of transportation.

Fairy mountain pavilions, jade palace and Yaochi.

The blue sky and purple air are so colorful that they look like a painting.

Green waves and ethereal birds

The red light shines through the white clouds, and the trees look colorful.

The sky is blue and the silver palace is shining with spiritual light.

Looking at everything in front of him, Bai Ping smiled and said, "Brother, this is the mountain gate. I am so grateful to you for your help along the way. Otherwise, I would have died in Ningtai County if not in the hands of the mountain god. Thank you for saving my life."

"No, the Taoist priest not only saved me several times, but also taught me a lot of knowledge. I don't know how to repay him." Gao Jian immediately shook his head.

"Okay, let's not dwell on these things, little brother. You and I are of the same mind, and this is not a farewell forever. Why are you sad? We can talk about our friendship again when we meet in the future."

"Okay! It's a deal!" Gao Jian reached out and held Bai Ping's remaining hand.

"It's a deal. By the way, although I can't let you go up to the mountain gate, please wait here for a while. I have something to give you." Bai Ping said.

"What?" Gao Jian was puzzled.

"It's not something expensive, just some money for the journey. You have no money now, how can you travel? Just wait a moment or two." After Bai Ping finished speaking, he made a hand gesture and flew into the sky.

There seems to be some kind of breeze always surrounding this place. As long as you have the art of light body, you can fly to the floating island in the sky.

Unfortunately, Gao Jian has no knowledge of magic, so he naturally cannot get up.

He waited down there for a while.

About an hour later, Bai Ping fell down again.

Holding a package in his hand.

"Here are ten gold coins, worth one hundred thousand coins, and a letter with a map and address. You can go here first to buy some things you need on the road. This is the trading place for people in the mountains, and you can buy many things that cannot be bought in the mountains."

"In addition, I went to the Sutra Library to ask, and the book demons inside didn't know what was wrong with your knife. I'm afraid I can't help you with that. But they said that there is a country called Wu Gu (Intestineless Country) overseas, where the people have no intestines, and food doesn't stay in the stomach after being eaten. There is also a country called Jing Ren (Jingren), where the people are less than a foot tall, and children are only four inches tall. There is also a country called Liangmian (Two-Faced Country), where the people have two faces."

"These strange races all exist, and a long knife on the chest is not uncommon. Maybe you will know it in the future. There is no need to keep it in mind."

Bai Ping handed the thing to Gao Jian.

"Thank you." Gao Jian did not refuse, but nodded heavily.

Bai Ping let go of the skinny horse's reins and patted its butt: "Go, this is a blessed place with magical herbs all over the mountain. Eat until you're full. I'll take you up the mountain. You'll have a chance to become an immortal!"

I don't know if the horse understood or not, but after being patted, it ran out and went towards the mountains.

Then, Bai Ping saluted with one hand: "Take care, little brother, see you later."

"See you later." Gao Jian returned the greeting.

The two parted ways, and Gao Jian turned away without even looking back.

The breeze blows behind me, and the fallen leaves fly, seeing my friend off.

All I could see were green mountains in the distance, clear water in the distance, clouds obscuring the scenery, mist and smoke accumulating, and all the sacred peaks were hidden in the clouds and mist, and could not be seen.

Since we met by chance, separation is inevitable. I just hope that when we meet again in the future, the situation will be completely different!
(Thanks to the leader of Purgatory 233!)
