EBE Chapter 236 Butterfly Valley
Chapter 236 Butterfly Valley
Su Yanqing's joyful expression paused and he fell silent.
He looked at the sun, which was sinking low in the distance, and suddenly asked Jiang Liqian, "But if your thoughts, your body and mind are completely at odds with theirs, do you still have to compromise for the sake of your admiration?"
Jiang Liqian didn't expect him to ask that. After a moment's pause, she pointed in the direction of the wonton vendor: "Would you like a bowl of wontons? I'll treat you."
The complexity in Su Yanqing's eyes quickly faded. Adhering to the principle of not taking advantage of a good opportunity, he said "yes" twice and ran over quickly.
As soon as I sat down, I couldn't wait to shout to the lady at the wonton stall: "Auntie, Auntie, a bowl of wontons, no green onions, more soup, I'm hungry!"
When the lady at the wonton stall saw that it was the young man who had returned, she responded lovingly and went to cook wontons for Su Yanqing.
Jiang Liqian walked over and ordered a bowl of wontons as well.
She placed the spirit stone on the table but did not sit down. Su Yanqing was puzzled: "Why not sit down?"
Jiang Liqian said: "I saw an acquaintance. I'll go over and say hello. You eat first."
After saying that, he walked towards a restaurant.
Su Yanqing called from behind: "Hey, the wontons are here. If you haven't finished saying hello, I'll eat them for you. Don't thank me."
Jiang Liqian waved her hand without responding.
The man entered the restaurant and came out from another door of the restaurant. Without even stopping, he went straight to the teleportation array at the city gate.
When Su Yanqing finished Jiang Liqian's portion in big mouthfuls, he realized that the other party had left him and disappeared.
-
After easily getting rid of Su Yanqing's entanglement, Jiang Liqian came to Baidie Valley in the southern part of Zhongzhou as planned.
She only knew the place name because Yun Ruyi had mentioned it to her many times.
I heard that it is spring all year round in Baidie Valley, with flowers blooming everywhere and hundreds of different kinds of spirit butterflies living in the valley. Every morning when the first ray of dawn shines into the valley, thousands of spirit butterflies dance among the flowers, which is very spectacular.
And because of the existence of these spirit butterflies, the spiritual energy in the valley is as rich as if there is a spiritual vein buried underground.
Every year, many people go to Lingdie Valley to play, practice, or visit the alchemy master, Chengfeng Valley Master, who lives in the valley.
There was no other reason why Jiang Liqian chose this place as the first stop of her trip. She just heard Yun Ruyi talk about it so much that she became curious and wanted to come and see it.
Everyone entering the valley had to pay an entrance fee of three low-grade spirit stones, but strangely, there was no one guarding outside the valley, but everyone who wanted to enter the valley still obediently put the spirit stones into a space magic box at the entrance.
Faced with the magic box filled with spirit stones, no one actually thought of robbing it!
"Fellow Daoist, I advise you not to set your sights on the magic box." Perhaps Jiang Liqian had been staring at the space magic box at the entrance of the valley for too long, and a kind-hearted person nearby reminded her.
"Although there's no one guarding this place, everyone who enters the valley will be marked with a special mark. This mark can protect them to a certain extent and will disappear upon leaving. However, those who haven't paid their spirit stones will not have this mark. Once attacked by the ferocious monsters in the valley, they won't even have a chance to escape from the Hundred Butterfly Valley and will immediately return to the heavenly realm."
The man gave her a serious warning: "Just three low-grade spirit stones can save your life, but don't be greedy for small gains, or you'll end up losing your life."
The more Jiang Liqian listened, the more confused she became.
The most abundant thing in the Hundred Butterfly Valley is various kinds of spiritual butterflies. I have never heard of any high-level monsters in the valley.
Could it be that she is "ignorant"?
Thinking this way, she asked the kind-hearted person directly.
"Little girl, you are young and inexperienced, so it's normal that you don't know. The rules of the Hundred Butterfly Valley were changed hundreds of years ago. In the past, you didn't need to pay spirit stones when entering the Hundred Butterfly Valley. You only needed to pay a consultation fee when you went to see the master of Chengfeng Valley for treatment.
"Later, for some unknown reason, many powerful demons suddenly appeared in the valley and took up residence there. The Valley Master Chengfeng invited Master Zhongdao from the Qiankun Sect to set up a defensive formation. This ensures that anyone entering the valley can leave in time if attacked, avoiding loss of life. These three low-grade spirit stones are the cost of maintaining the formation."
Jiang Liqian hadn't expected this to happen, and couldn't help but ask, "Since Hundred Butterfly Valley has become so dangerous, why doesn't Master Chengfeng move his family out of the valley, or unite the forces of the various sects to eliminate the monsters entrenched here?"
Although the defensive formation can resist the attacks of monsters, it is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution, isn't it?
Only by removing the firewood from under the cauldron can we solve the problem once and for all.
The kindhearted person shook his head and sighed: "Little girl, do you think that if you can think of a method, these powerful gods can't think of it? There must be other reasons..."
"Hey, the people in front, are you going to hand over the spirit stones or leave? We are in a hurry to go into the valley to pick spirit herbs. Hurry up, hurry up!" An impatient urging voice sounded from behind, interrupting what the kind-hearted person wanted to say.
Jiang Liqian realized that her behavior was inappropriate, and hurriedly apologized to the person behind her. Then she put three low-grade spirit stones into the space magic box. When she looked up again, the kind-hearted person in front of her had disappeared.
After entering the valley, just as the man said, a butterfly-shaped mark appeared on the back of my left hand. When I covered it with my fingertips, I could feel a slight flow of spiritual energy.
It's like a butterfly fluttering its wings gently at your fingertips.
Jiang Liqian felt surprised. She didn't expect that her master's defensive formation was so realistic.
The Hundred Butterfly Valley is very large, with blooming flowers covering hundreds of miles. As soon as she stepped in, it was as if she had entered a vast sea of flowers with no end in sight.
These spiritual flowers sway in the wind, and no matter where you go, you can smell the faint fragrance of the flowers.
It's not pungent, but rather smells particularly good.
Even people's minds can relax unconsciously.
[Ding! The backlash value of the young master's inner demon has been reduced by 1%. The current backlash value is 53%.]
Jiang Liqian was stunned.
The spiritual flowers here can actually eliminate inner demons!
So is it beneficial to the cultivation of spiritual beasts?
Thinking of this, Jiang Liqian released the little golden peach from the spirit beast bag.
Little Golden Peach was sleeping soundly while holding the demon core, when she suddenly fell into a sea of flowers. Her little head was stunned for a moment, then her eyes widened, her tail wagging wildly, and she ran away in the sea of flowers.
It nudged here, bit there, and rolled around on the spiritual flowers on the ground from time to time. Its little head, body, and tail were all covered with fallen petals.
Jiang Liqian was in a rare state of relaxation. She leaned over and lay on the colorful flowers.
A colorful little flower landed on the tip of her nose. She half-closed her eyes, letting her mind flow and absorbing the rich spiritual energy here.
At this moment, a clear and pleasant girl's voice suddenly sounded in her ears.
