"Eight of us come to patrol the mountain. Follow Liangsheng and walk through the mountain and walk through this ridge... Don't come out, be careful to do it...ahhh..."

"Liangsheng, be careful, slow down."

The sun shines through the forests on the mountains, mottled through the gaps of trees, falling to the ground, swaying slightly in the wind, a group of eight strong men carried swords and sticks on their backs, humming loudly, protecting the scholar in the middle, and carefully crossing a stream.

There are few people here. The weeds are messy on the hillside. Walking among the eight great men, Lu Liangsheng lost his cultivation and could still feel the refreshing air in the mountains sucking into his body. No one had moved the magic circle here.

“It’s here.”

Lu Pan walked in front and stretched his neck, pointing to the direction not far away. The sound of the waterfall and the water pool became clearer with the birds singing around him in the morning.

Walking up a gentle slope, a crisp childish voice shouted: "Sir!"

A small figure jumped off an old tree on the gentle slope, with a circle of branches on his head. Seeing the scholar in front of him, he happily ran to grab Lu Liangsheng's arm and shook it, and looked around his little head, looking at the obscene Taoist who followed him.

"No need to see, I didn't come!" Lu Liangsheng probably understood what was going on in his heart. A young man just protected his mother's behavior, and then he touched his head.

"I want to meet your mother."

"Well, sir and Mingyue are here." The boy Mingyue nodded happily, took two steps, turned around and said crisply to the eight big men behind, "You are not allowed to come."

The eight people shrugged, and Lu Xi said, "If you don't come, you won't come, it's rare!" Then he snorted, and the seven people with Lu Pan dispersed around, found a shaded place, sat down to cool down and rest.

Lu Liangsheng followed the bright moon across this gentle slope. In the sunshine, a "silver belt" rushes down and falls to the pool below. The rippling water surface is surrounded by a layer of white mist. On a large rock on the shore, a red-haired fox crawling with its tail is sunbathing in the morning sun. Its kisses slightly, and a slight mist is spitting out a trace of mist and flies away from the white mist on the water surface, pulling it, slowly swimming back into its mouth.

Stepping on the fallen leaves, Rouge's long ears trembled, closed the long kiss, turned his head and saw his son wearing a circle of branches, jumping back from outside, and there was a familiar figure behind him. His limbs were supported and he jumped off the blue rock, and a burst of blue smoke was rolled up at the flat bottom, showing a beautiful woman in red and white dress, with her black hair tied high behind her head, and she shook her step by step, giving a blessing to the scholar who came over.

"Yuzhi, I've met my benefactor."

"You and I have been acquaintances for many years, so there is no need to be so much courtesy."

Lu Liangsheng reached out to help her, asked her to get up, called Mingyue to come together, sat down to the big stone beside the pool, waved a cuff, and let the mother and son sit down and talk.

"I came here to see what happened to the magic circle? Is there any signs of loosening?"

"Go back to my benefactor, that's not." Yanzhi held Mingyue in her arms, sat down on the side opposite the scholar, smiled and looked at the waterfall and the magic circle scroll behind her, and said with a smile: "I have been practicing with the spiritual energy flowing through the magic circle, which is more and more abundant day by day, without any sign of loosening."

Speaking of this, she looked at Lu Liangsheng on the opposite side carefully, and could not feel the other party's magic power. There were still fine beads of sweat on her handsome face, just like an ordinary person sitting in front of her. If it weren't for her behavior and conversation, she would have been the same as before. Yanzhi almost felt that other monsters turned into Lu Liangsheng's appearance to deceive him.

Could it be that my benefactor walked up without using his magic power?

Or is it that his benefactor has begun to secretly conform to the laws of heaven and return to nature?

After a moment of loss of mind, even though Lu Liangsheng had no cultivation, he could see some clues from Yanzhi's eyes. However, he had never wanted to hide it from her.

The scholar opened his mouth in the sound of water.

"Yanzhi, you and your son have been here for many years. In the past, they still have cultivation, but they can take care of them. Now I have no magical power and cultivation. If there is any, I am afraid I can't take care of them anymore."

Except for Mingyue Shang's little understanding, Yanzhi showed a look of surprise on her face, "My benefactor, how did you lose your cultivation?"

“This doesn’t matter anymore.”

When it comes to the matter of Master, Lu Liangsheng didn't need to talk to her and her son. He bent down and took the water from the pond and drank it, and breathed comfortably.

"In fact, I feel a little relieved if I lose my cultivation..."

His eyes fell on the mother and son.

"... Come here, I actually want to say that you don't have to be here anymore. If you want to leave, you can leave at any time. No need to worry about what I said I would take Mingyue in and let you protect the magic circle here."

He paused and a smile appeared on his face: "You are free."

Opposite, Yanzhi was silent for a while, gently pushed Mingyue away and stood up, folded her hands in front of her abdomen, and bowed from afar: "I and Mingyue were lucky to be taken in by my benefactor, so I have to survive until today. This kind of kindness cannot be repaid. My benefactor's power is lost, so I will take good care of Qixia Mountain for my benefactor."

"And me!"

Mingyue raised her hand, picked up the small gourd around her waist, and swayed the small stones inside. The betel was beaten a few times: "Sir, I can do it too, I am very familiar with the spirit gathering array."

Lu Liangsheng had taught this child how to control the magic circle before, but he didn't expect it to be useful today. He was also happy to see that the mother and son were willing to stay.

After saying something with the mother and son, he took Mingyue to Lu Pan and the eight others to go to the other two mountains where the magic array were arranged, and taught some tips for the spirit gathering array, how to cast spells quickly, how to make the illusion more realistic, how to drive the illusion to save mana, and other skills, it was already afternoon, and the group made do with some wild game in the mountains to make a tooth sacrifice, and then returned to the village.

Lu Liangsheng went to Qixia Mountain to the west alone. Even though his foundation in practicing Taoism was still there, he finally returned to the mortal body. After walking for a morning of the mountain road, he climbed Qixia Mountain to the west, and his clothes were as if soaked in water, and his whole body was wet.

He sat on the stone beside the road and took a breath. The scholar saw that the trees along the way were red ropes he tied to back then, and the wind and rain had faded.

Looking at the winding mountain path, the sea of ​​clouds surging among the distant mountains. In the eyes, Qixia Mountain stretches for dozens of miles and cannot see the end.

I couldn't help but sigh with some amusing sigh.

"I met my master here. I just wanted to learn to read, but I didn't expect that I had learned to practice Taoism. Now my cultivation has disappeared again. In a blink of an eye, I have actually left a great circle."

Lu Liangsheng smiled, stood up with his knees, and then walked up. In the sunshine, the old pine trees of Dufeng were still there. Under the swaying pine branches, the tomb of his mentor Shu Hua Gong was still there. The cottage not far away was without the constraints of magic, and the branches and leaves were growing everywhere, lushly stroking in the wind, and there was no room for doors and windows.

"Well? Didn't the Taoist say that Mu Qiyou is here? Why don't you see anyone?"

I walked to the small thatched cottage and fenced courtyard and looked around. Except for the traces of the magic circle left by refining the Yuelong Sword the previous year, there was still no difference.

The mountain breeze slowly blew the yellow leaves of the forest around it. In the quiet, the vines forming the fence moved and quietly grew along the ground. Dozens of them burst out instantly, wrapping the scholar's ankle and arms around him.

"Old demon!!"

Lu Liangsheng struggled a few times, suddenly heard the shout, turned around, and what was imprinted into his eyes was a figure rushing out of the cottage, pounced into his arms, rubbing hard against his warm chest.
