Under One Person, Mountain and Sea Painting Demon

At this moment……

"Um……"

Youfang, who had been guarding all night, stood up and stretched his body. He had finally completed the seventh day of guarding the old man.

Then, he walked to the spirit tablet, lit three more incense sticks, closed his eyes, silently recited a few words respectfully, and then inserted the incense into the incense burner.

When keeping vigil, the incense must not be cut off. If the incense is cut off, the thoughts will be cut off, which will make the deceased heartbroken.

However, the first seven days have passed, so there is no need to dwell on it any longer. Therefore, the last three sticks of incense have another meaning...

Youfang is about to leave...

According to his last wishes, the old man's ashes must be taken with him.

Please don't blame the deceased.

After lighting the incense, You Fang began to pack up his things. Just as the old man said, he had long wanted to go out and see the world, and now he could finally set off.

In his previous life, he was a painter who loved to travel around. His favorite thing was to go to various places to see the beautiful scenery and then paint it...

Now that we have come to such a magical world, how can we not go out and experience it!

First of all, put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, as these are the "necessities of life" and must be brought with you no matter what.

Then you need to buy tents, sleeping bags, picnic tools, and spare clothes in advance. When traveling outdoors, you will inevitably have to sleep outdoors, so you naturally have to prepare in advance.

Of course, he couldn't forget his wallet and bank card. The check transfer had already arrived. He was now worth tens of millions, so he didn't have to worry about money anymore.

In addition to these, there are many rolled-up paintings, which were all painted based on his observations of the mountains and rivers of the mountain city over the years and his inner feelings. They are also his means of survival.

In this way, they collected all kinds of things and piled them together like a small mountain. There were really a lot of things, and it didn't look like they could all be taken away.

If it were in the past, Youfang would never bring so many things. After all, the most important thing when traveling is to be light and to "unload the burden". But now it is different...

He has his own way and can do it easily.

I saw...

wow——

Youfang took out a brand new blank scroll from the side, unfolded it, then cut his finger, dipped it in ink, and drew a circular ink circle directly on the scroll.

Immediately afterwards...

Gudu Gudu!

The ink that formed the ink circle suddenly began to move, and the ink halo began to spread toward the inside of the circle. In a short while, a dark ink hole was formed, like a black hole.

This cave is named "Dongtian".

Youfang gained the enlightenment when he climbed up Mount Nanshan alone at the age of twelve. He was inspired by a hidden stone cave he saw on the mountainside.

This cave can change its size, store objects, take in spiritual energy, and even hide living beings inside, which is a very convenient method.

"receive!"

After a while, when the cave was completely formed, Youfang smiled slightly and tapped his finger lightly. The cave floated out by itself and expanded instantly, covering all the luggage that was inconvenient to carry.

Afterwards, after "swallowing" these luggage, the cave slowly shrank again, then returned, and floated slowly back to the scroll.

In this way, the luggage problem was solved. Youfang gently rolled up the scroll, tied the rope, and threw it into the backpack.

Apart from the things in the scroll, the rest were things that could be taken at any time. There were not many things, so he put them away one by one.

After packing up most of the things, Youfang's eyes fell on an atlas, which was prepared for him by the old man. It contained the approximate distribution and introduction of the major sects and forces, and could be regarded as a map guide.

The old man had thought it through very carefully. Since Youfang was an extraordinary person, he would inevitably visit and disturb these extraordinary forces when he was traveling. Therefore, this album also marked the rules and preferences of various sects that he knew. As long as the etiquette was followed, generally speaking, there was no mountain gate that could not be knocked open.

"Old man, you have already seen what I am thinking..."

Looking at the picture album, You Fang murmured softly, and had to admit that this was indeed what his heart desired.

His plan was simple - that is to take advantage of the opportunity to send the old man back to his roots to travel around the whole of China. While traveling through the mountains and rivers, he would also like to experience the wonders of the various strange sects.

If possible, he even wants to have a competition with her!

As for the reason, besides being really curious, there is another point, which is his "painting monster".

Today, he has already reached a bottleneck. The scenery of the surrounding mountain city can hardly bring him new inspiration. He hopes to use the opportunity of exchange and discussion to take his "painting demon" to a higher level and gain new insights!

This is not only a reflection of an extraordinary person's pursuit of strength, but also a reflection of his desire to seek the truth. It is a natural change in mentality.

When a person has insight into some of the truths of this world, he wants to see more. This is the desire for knowledge and the source of wisdom.

"Thank you, old man..."

Youfang smiled slightly and put the atlas away. He had already decided on his next destination.

Sichuan!

Neighboring Chongqing, it was the ancient Shu area and a blessed land of mountains and rivers!

At the same time, the two more famous alien forces, the Huode Sect and the Tang Sect, are also there!

"call……"

After a while, after packing up his things, Youfang stood up and breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he began to clean up the old man's spirit tablet, putting away everything except the incense burner and the portrait.

Finally, he gently picked up the portrait and the sandalwood urn, then put the portrait back in its place and took out the brocade for wrapping.

He carefully placed the urn on the brocade, wrapped it up carefully, and then packed the bundle into a style suitable for carrying, and held it in his hand.

"Old man, it's too stuffy in the cave, why don't you stay outside? You can still talk to me, okay?"

Looking at the bundle in his hand, You Fang whispered to himself, his eyelids drooping unconsciously.

"Leave the matter of returning to the roots to me, but before that you have to accompany me on a tour. This is what you promised me, so you can't break your promise!"

After saying that, Youfang smiled again. He then took a deep breath and turned off the water, electricity and gas in the house.

"Old man, let's go!"

Then he shouted and opened the door directly...

Step out...

This is the home I have lived in for twenty years!

Chapter 5 Little Fire God Hong Bin

2023-10-23

Five days later.

Sichuan.

In the mountains and forests more than 100 kilometers away from the outskirts of CD.

Youfang sat on the tallest tree on the top of the mountain, with his back against the thick trunk, resting and gazing into the distance.

In at most one more day, he would be able to reach Chengdu. This was the first stop he chose and it could be considered a starting point.

As the capital of Sichuan and one of the most livable cities in China, he also wanted to see if this place would be different from the memories of his previous life.

Speaking of which, in fact, in his previous life, You Fang had traveled almost all over the country.

At that time, he only relied on a car and a set of painting supplies. He drove himself and worked part-time to earn money. He was free and happy.

Therefore, after careful consideration, he decided to change his travel method this time. He gave up the option of driving and chose to hike.

He remembered someone saying:

As times change and vehicles change, people have gained convenience and efficiency, but have also lost the scenery along the way.

So this time, he wanted to measure this land with his own feet and feel it...

This is a view that I have missed before.

"call……"

"The weather is nice today, so let's not rush and take a nap."

After a moment, You Fang withdrew his gaze and lay back comfortably.

It was noon and he had just finished lunch. He felt warm and full, and then he felt sleepy.

In addition, today's sun is really good, the wind is just right, the temperature is neither hot nor cold, and the air is fresh, which is perfect for enjoying it.

however……

As soon as Youfang lay down, he heard:

Xixisuosuo Xiuxixuosuo!

There was a sudden sound of branches rubbing against each other in the bushes below, and it was approaching this side, as if...

somebody is coming?

"what?"

Then, a rough voice appeared under the tree, with a puzzled tone, and then muttered to himself:

"Is there anyone else in this place?"

Since his backpack and the old man's ashes were placed under the tree, You Fang turned it up as soon as he heard the sound, and then looked down.

I saw a burly young man with hedgehog-red hair and a backpack on his back. He was standing under the tree with his hands on his hips, looking around.

"Ok?"

"what!"

The next second, the man raised his head and his eyes met Youfang on the tree. His expression froze, as if he was a little surprised.

But he soon reacted, grinned, and shouted:

"Hello, are you a villager from around here?"

"No, I'm traveling."

Boom!

Seeing this, Youfang jumped off the tree while answering, then put on his backpack and took the urn in his hand.

Suddenly meeting such a person in this desolate mountain and wilderness made him inevitably wary. Although this guy didn't look like a bad person, who could really say for sure about such things?

"Ah? Traveling? You alone? In this mountain!"

Hearing this, the man was surprised and then shouted.

I have to say that he is really full of energy. Whenever he opens his mouth, his voice is as loud as a bell. And you can see that the Yang Fire in his body is very strong. His whole body unconsciously radiates a burning feeling, just like a big furnace.

"Well, I'm from Chongqing and I want to go to Chengdu. I think taking a bus is boring, so I want to walk around."

After taking the things, Youfang smiled slightly and replied softly.

"Oh, you are from Chongqing! That's amazing! It's rare to see people like you these days!"

The man nodded and also showed an honest smile.

then……

"that……"

The man's expression suddenly changed, and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.

"Since you are traveling, you should have a cell phone with you, right? Can you let me see the map? I..."

“I seem to be lost!”

"Uh……"

"get lost?"

Hearing this, You Fang was surprised. He thought this guy was from nearby.

Then he looked the guy up and down and found that he didn't seem to have anything else except the backpack on his back, so he nodded and took out his cell phone.

"Here..."

He opened the map, handed the phone to the man, and Youfang also moved over.
