I didn't expect that I was the heartthrob.

Chapter 180 Sea Sacrifice

The main peak of Xuantian Sword Sect and the other peaks on the four sides are famous for their steepness.

In order to prevent the mountain gate from being disturbed by ordinary mortals, clouds and mist are shrouded from the halfway point all year round, especially in the middle of the mountain, which is covered by thick clouds. On the contrary, after the halfway point, the clouds and mist are thinner, covering it like a veil, and the green peaks are like a piece of mist-like veil, which can be compared to a fairyland.

Xu Guizhi continued to climb up the rolling mountainside, cursing.

At that pit, Zhou Saiguan originally wanted to take him up the mountain, but Xu Guizhi found a reason to refuse.

The reason was simple, it was because he could command thousands of swords to chop into the mountains of Xuantian Sword Sect, which made him feel a little strange.

According to Gu Lan and Yueyinggui's description, he was just a talented and skilled swordsman who joined the Thousand Machine Sect later. In fact, he was not really a Thousand Machine Sect disciple in essence.

It has nothing to do with Xuantian Sword Sect, so how can it drive the tens of thousands of immortal swords of Xuantian Sword Sect?

He was in a hurry at that time and an inspiration came to his mind, so he sang and recited casually. He never thought that it would attract a sky full of fairy swords, which really shocked him.

He then saw two figures from the Xuantian Sword Sect flying over and was so scared that he immediately shrank back into the cave.

So when Zhou Saiguan invited him to join them, he decisively refused.

If he went with Zhou Saiguan, in case there were still people in Xuantian Sword Sect who recognized him, seeing him would definitely cause unnecessary trouble. Xu Guizhi hated trouble and only wanted to find Gu Lan. He was too lazy to care about other people.

Just like that, when they arrived at the territory of Xuantian Sword Sect, Xu Guizhi bid farewell to Zhou Saiguan and his party, and wandered alone at the foot of the mountain for a few days. A few days later, under the guidance of the inn servant, he found his way up the mountain from a road opened up by mortals at the foot of the mountain.

According to Xu Guizhi's fragmentary memories, he could go up the mountain, ask the outer disciples for information about Gu Lan's residence, and ask someone to pass on the message, and he would be able to meet him smoothly. This way would not alarm anyone, which was exactly what he wanted.

But who knew that the mountain road was so rugged and steep. After finally climbing halfway up the mountain, his foot slipped and he got hung on an old tree root. He had no choice but to swing on the tree and stretch his legs to reach a protruding rock on the side.

But some wicked person brought up a gust of mountain wind while flying on the sword, which broke the old tree root and caused him to tumble down. His waist was dislocated and he had to use support to straighten himself up.

Fortunately, he is not a mortal being. If he were a mortal being, he would have collapsed to the ground and would not be able to get up.

Xu Guizhi struggled, holding his dislocated waist, and used his other hand to push aside the thatch and climb up with difficulty. After great effort, he finally climbed back to the position he was just now. He couldn't help but lean against the protruding rock to rest, but when he looked up, he saw that the disciple who had just flown with a sword had flown back again.

This time Gu Lan flew closer than before. When Xu Guizhi looked up, he saw an old acquaintance. It turned out that the disciple just now was Gu Lan. Xu Guizhi waved in surprise.

"Gu Lan! Hello, I'm here!"

It's true that you can't find anything even if you wear iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.

Xu Guizhi no longer cared about his waist, leaned against the rock, and stretched out his hands to greet.

Gu Lan pressed down the magic sword and fell to the ground violently.

This was the first time she had seen this person, so how could she know it was her from a distance?

"you are?"

Xu Guizhi had a clay figure, and this was the first time he appeared in front of Gu Lan. Seeing that Gu Lan didn't recognize him, he smiled and said, "I'm so sad that you've forgotten your old friend after just a few months of not seeing him."

After hearing this, Gu Lan's mind raced. She was a perceptive person to begin with. She felt familiar with him when she saw him just now during her sword ride. Now that he said this, it suddenly became clear to her.

"Xu Guizhi! Do you have a body?"

Xu Guizhi opened his sleeves, his posture twisted, but his expression was complacent, but he fell down crookedly the next second.

Gu Lan was quick to help him up and took off the ridiculous thatch on his head. Then he withdrew his hand and looked at Xu Guizhi carefully.

Xu Guizhi held his waist and made a bitter face, "Just now a gust of sword wind blew me and I fell down. Now my waist is dislocated and I can't stand up straight."

After listening to him, Gu Lan helped him to straighten himself, and Xu Guizhi finally stood up straight.

"I have to say, Du Ba is really powerful!" Gu Lan looked Xu Guizhi up and down. It was impossible to tell that Xu Guizhi was just a clay figure. This body looked like a real person, which was truly magical.

"They were famous all over the world back then, but now that they are not in the public eye, many younger disciples don't know them anymore."

"That's right. Even good wine needs a bush."

Xu Guizhi nodded.

At the foot of the mountain, Xu Guizhi heard that all the disciples who went to the Sword Tomb were injured. No one brought a letter to ask about Gu Lan's condition. Now that he saw that she was full of energy, he thought she was not seriously injured. He wondered if she had obtained the magic sword in the Sword Tomb.

So Xu Guizhi asked about this matter. Gu Lan shook her head and told Xu Guizhi everything about her life in the sword tomb. She also said that she was going to Feiyun Cave to seek help from Master Kurumu.

Xu Guizhi sighed, "How could such a thing happen? But speaking of Master Ku Mu, I know a little bit about her. She became famous at a young age and is good at refining magic weapons. She is a genius who can practice both sword and weapon. The Lingyun Four Heroes are her neighbors in Southern Xinjiang and often interact with each other. So I will go with you. If you cannot ask her for help, I may be able to say a few words to her."

Gu Lan was just waiting for this, so he quickly agreed, "We will set off tomorrow afternoon, and we will use the teleportation array then."

"But is it the Xuantian Posthouse at the foot of the mountain?"

"Exactly."

"Then you have to make a reservation first. I happen to be staying nearby these days, and there are many monks coming and going. There are queues of people waiting, so I'm afraid I may not be able to leave on time in the afternoon."

Gu Lan was stunned. She didn't expect Xuantian Station to be so busy.

"Then let's make a reservation." Gu Lan brought Xu Guizhi to Xuantian Station at the foot of the mountain. As expected, they saw a long queue and had no choice but to queue up behind.

After finally getting in line, Gu Lan paid spirit stones for reservation. Since there were quite a lot of spirit stones, Gu Lan also paid a deposit for Feiyun Cave and reserved a seat. So when they arrived tomorrow, they wouldn't have to wait in line. Only then did the two of them feel relieved.

Xu Guizhi still didn't want to go up the mountain, so Gu Lan followed him, said goodbye to Xu Guizhi and went up the mountain again.

We need to pack up tonight so that we can set off in time tomorrow.

On the second day, after Xu Fengxi finished his medicinal bath, Meng Xin and Xue Hao cleaned him up. Xu Fengxi was still unconscious, so Xue Hao took a bed sheet and tied Xu Fengxi behind him. The group met Feiyun Cave at the gate of the mountain and flew down the mountain together.

Yun Tiannan waved to several disciples from afar, and after seeing them off, he returned to the main peak. Things had not been settled yet, and he could not go to the Wanfo Sect until three to five days later. Yun Tiannan used a flying sword to send a message to Master Shanshui.

There is no need to mention these. Let's just say that Gu Lan and others used the teleportation array with Feiyun Cave to arrive at the Nanjiang Post Station and flew away on swords.

The Ten Thousand Mountains in southern Xinjiang are gentler than those in the Central Plains, but they are continuous and the scenery is pleasant, but the people have no intention of appreciating it and are focused on getting on with their journey. After walking for a while, they saw a beautiful mountain range emerging above the water in the distance.

The foot of the mountain, shrouded in clouds and mist, is connected to the endless sea. You can neither see the water nor the mountain clearly, as if the mountain there is a palace in the sky.

Gu Lan praised in his heart, what a misty fairy mountain, no wonder it is called Piao Miao Peak.

He slightly lowered the sword's tip and got closer, and saw that the shore was densely packed with people. The crowd knelt on the ground, holding incense sticks in their hands, and kowtowed repeatedly towards the misty fairy mountain. There were also hundreds of people beating gongs and drums on the shore, and dozens of people in strange costumes were dancing and dancing in front of the crowd.

Gu Lan didn't know what was going on. She turned to look at Qin Susu and saw that she also looked confused and at a loss.

"It's not even spring yet, why are we offering sacrifices to the sea now?"
