Chapter 39 Riding a Crane
In the afternoon, the sun is warm and the years in Qihuang Valley are quiet.
Zuo Lingquan finished the task of transporting medicinal materials in the alchemy room, returned to the small courtyard under the waterfall, and continued to try to refine Qi in the house.
The room was neatly tidy, with the sword and the talisman clip given by Jiang Yi placed beside him, and there was a small wooden box next to the talisman clip.
The day before yesterday, Zuo Lingquan asked Wu Qingwan, and then he realized that it was the "worry-free talisman" and was extremely precious. Jiang Yi only had a few pictures, and since childhood, he was reluctant to use that kind.
Because there is no true energy, Wuyou Talisman can only be stimulated by white jade zhu, and Jiang Yi also gave him three white jade zhu. Zuo Lingquan naturally remembered this feeling in his heart, and at the same time he felt that the rouge he gave along the way was a bit too casual and he had to prepare something decent.
However, Zuo Lingquan's family is rich and cannot be richer than Jiang Yi. Pearl and jade are too merciless; he is poor and has nothing to do with his cultivation.
Zuo Lingquan thought about it for a long time, and finally carved a pendant by himself. Although it was not very valuable, it could at least represent some of his feelings.
The spring day outside the window was quiet, and Zuo Lingquan was sitting cross-legged, and suddenly there was a chirping sound outside:
"Have you heard it..."
"Really..."
Zuo Lingquan was a little confused. He walked out of the room and took a look, but saw his senior sister in the bamboo forest gathering together and whispering.
"Why just be a man? This is too unfair!"
"yes……"
Zuo Lingquan was about to ask, but saw a crane flying over from a distance. He thought it was a small crane raised in Qihuang Valley, but when he flew over the bamboo forest, the strong wind brought by his wings bent into green bamboos. He was shocked to realize how big the crane was - his wings were nearly three meters wide, and his legs stood straight, probably taller than the house, and his neck was the same as a giraffe.
Zuo Lingquan knew that there was a beast circle in the living room, raising various rare beasts, but he had never been there, and this was the first time he had seen this big crane. However, he had also heard that this was the mount of the national teacher Yue Pingyang.
The white crane landed steadily in front of Zuo Lingquan's courtyard, looking quite gentle, and stood quietly without any other moves.
Zuo Lingquan was a little confused. It was not until Bai He poked a head out of his back that he found someone on it.
Wu Qingwan was wearing a gorgeous cloud-white long skirt, almost integrated with the white crane. She sat on the back of the white crane, looked at Zuo Lingquan below, and hooked her hand:
"Lingquan, come up and go to Donghua City with me."
"Okay."
Zuo Lingquan saw Wu Qingwan wearing the skirt he bought, curled up the corner of his mouth and smiled, turned around and took the items he took, walked quickly to the front, and jumped up steadily, and then prepared to land on the white crane's back.
But what Zuo Lingquan never expected was that the white crane, who was still motionless just now, moved its long legs and moved away one step to the side.
Zuo Lingquan's jumping power is amazing, but he can't fly after all, and he has nowhere to leverage his strength when he soars into the air. He fell down on the spot with just one foot.
Wu Qingwan knew that this would happen. She quickly leaned over, grabbed Zuo Lingquan's shoulder with one hand, and carried him to Baihe's back, saying a little funny:
"What are you jumping? Baihe must be hiding with such great strength."
"I was reckless."
Zuo Lingquan landed on Baihe's broad back. Before he could sit firmly, Baihe spread his wings, swelled up a few lightly, and came to the high altitude of Qihuang Valley.
Zuo Lingquan once dreamed of traveling for nine days one day, but he didn't expect that this day would come so suddenly. He was not mentally prepared, and the fluff on the white crane's back was very smooth. Without a seat belt, he subconsciously hugged the only thing next to him and looked carefully at the valley below.
Wu Qingwan was a little excited and completely forgot about Zuo Lingquan's first riding position. She suddenly was hugged and fell into Zuo Lingquan's arms. She remembered it.
"oh……"
Although he was hugged, Wu Qingwan didn't show any strangeness on her mature and beautiful cheeks. She immediately came back to her senses. She moved Zuo Lingquan's arm away like a caring elder, and then held his back:
"It's okay, if it falls, it will keep you there."
Zuo Lingquan realized that the movement just now was inappropriate. Seeing that Wu Qingwan understood, he smiled:
"The first time I sat down, it was a bit scary."
They were so close to each other that Zuo Lingquan glanced at Wu Qingwan's skirt. The white long skirt was tightly slit on Wu Qingwan's body, and there was no wrinkle on her body. The original curves of her body were outlined to the fullest. The cloud patterns embellished with silver threads added a bit of a sense of being out of the world, especially now sitting on the back of a white crane, walking in the wind, three thousand black hairs danced in the wind. If there were fairies in the world, they would probably look like this.
Wu Qingwan noticed Zuo Lingquan's eyes, and did not squinox to avoid them, but just smiled indifferently:
"It fits well, you have a good attitude."
"It's good if Senior Wu is satisfied."
Zuo Lingquan's target did not stop for too long, but instead placed it on the countryside where grass was growing and birds were flying, asking:
"Why are you suddenly so anxious to go to Donghua City? Seeing that the senior sisters are very excited, is there anything good?"
"There is a good thing. In the morning, Jingtao sent a letter saying that the nine sects in the south recruited disciples and gave us three places in the Great Dan Dynasty. This is an unprecedented great thing."
Zuo Lingquan was stunned. He yearned for practice since childhood. He was very interested in this, so he turned his head back:
"Is that so? Everyone has a chance to fight for it?"
Speaking of this, Wu Qingwan also showed some loss in her eyes and shook her head:
"I originally thought everyone could fight for it. I dreamed of going to the Nine Sects. I had a relative who went there more than 20 years ago. Unfortunately, the person I wanted this time must be a man, under the age of thirty, and his cultivation is above the eighth level of Qi Refining."
"ah?"
The joy on Zuo Lingquan's face suddenly dissipated: "There are still requirements for gender and cultivation?"
"Yes, I don't understand why as long as you men are, you men take advantage of all the advantages in the secular world. When you practice, you still take advantage of it. The promised balance of yin and yang will female cultivators be able to reach half of the sky?"
?
Zuo Lingquan had no choice but to spread his hands: "I can't go even if I'm a man, it's all the same."
Wu Qingwan smiled with a pursed lips: "You still want to marry Jiang Yi, how can you run out? If you want to run, you have to take Jiang Yi with you. You can't be a heartless person."
"That's natural. I just want to go to heaven to see it. My parents' grace is greater than that of heaven, and my brothers and sisters are more important than that of the earth. How can I abandon them openly because of the saying "The Supreme Being Forgets Love"?"
Wu Qingwan thought so, but the teachers did not teach this way. She was afraid that a casual compliment would become an insurmountable knot on Zuo Lingquan's future practice. After hesitating for a long time, she only showed a gentle smile in response.
The two of them rode a crane and crossed the beautiful mountains and rivers under their feet.
Zuo Lingquan looked at the earth from a bird's eye and imagined the day he would travel in the sky with himself. However, as he thought about it, the faint fragrance of wind blew his nose and lured his thoughts back from thousands of miles away.
The back of the white crane was not big, and Wu Qingwan sat in front, only a short distance from Zuo Lingquan. As the white crane galloped, the breeze blew on his face, and the faint fragrance of orchids on Wu Qingwan's body naturally reached the tip of Zuo Lingquan's nose.
