Chapter 286: Xizhou Boundary Monument
The next day, Lu Xun and Ji Li got up early and prepared to set off.
[The Moon in the Well] is a little far from Qingling City and belongs to the Xizhou area, so it takes quite a while to get there.
By the way, if I remember correctly, Ye Sui'an is also known as the most handsome man in Xizhou.
Last night, Lu Xun directly raised his level to level 29, and kept reserve in case of emergency.
Ji Li was actually also suppressing her cultivation. She could break through to the second level at any time, but she was not in a hurry.
For practitioners, the initial stage and the first stage are like laying the foundation. The more solid the foundation is, the higher the building can be built.
Ji Li has just finished the second training of [Turtle's Longevity] and is still in the stage of gaining some insights.
It would be better to digest these insights carefully before making a breakthrough.
Therefore, Lu Xun's plan was to let her break through before going to [The Moon in the Well]. In this way, [The Moon in the Well] would be just the right place to practice after breaking through, and could be used to consolidate her realm.
Seeing that he had thought of everything for her , Ji Li was naturally willing to do it.
After finishing their breakfast, the two officially set off and flew towards Xizhou.
Inside Lai Fu Restaurant, the shopkeeper Wang Pan watched Lu Xun and Ji Li disappear from a distance, feeling lost.
He mustered up his courage again and again, wanting to have a few words with this big shot who had an extraordinary status in the Demon Sect and ask about Lin Chan's condition, but he didn't dare.
He was originally a waiter, and was promoted to shopkeeper in recent years. People in his line of work are usually perceptive and thoughtful.
He had thought about it several times and realized that it was useless to ask.
This gentleman is not an ordinary person in Qingling City, nor is he a teacher in a private school.
If he is really just a teacher, I can give him some gifts and do him a favor.
We are very different from each other. If I suddenly go and talk about Lin Chan's recent situation, and then ask him to take care of him like an old father, it will seem extremely ridiculous and may even make him unhappy.
It is not a good thing to overestimate your abilities.
"Forget it, forget it. Didn't Lord Mo and the lord who always brings spiritual wine tell you that Lin Chan is living well in the Demon Sect?" he said to himself.
With this thought in mind, he went to the backyard and started cleaning up himself.
Soon, he found an envelope on the stone table under the tree in the backyard.
The envelope read: From Manager Wang Pan.
If it weren't for these words on the envelope, Wang Pan would never have dared to open it.
He looked up at the sky, then looked around, hesitated for a few seconds, and then slowly opened the envelope.
Inside the envelope, there was only a small note.
There was only one sentence on the note.
"【Lin Chan is fine, no need to worry. ——Lu Xun of the Demon Sect.】"
Shopkeeper Wang Pan folded the note carefully and neatly with trembling hands, then put it into the envelope.
At this moment, he understood that the skinny little mute was really lucky . Her master was an approachable and gentle person.
He must keep this envelope carefully .
After doing all this, he looked up at the sky, in the direction where Lu Xun flew away.
Then, he held the envelope in both hands, slowly bowed, and did not stand up for a long time.
…
…
Paper cranes flew through the sky. A man and a woman alone could not remain silent, although for Ji Li, she could look at Lu Xun's face all day long.
Now, Lu Xun was flying a paper crane while telling Ji Li a story that all time travelers must tell—"What happened five hundred years later when I was banned after starting out so strong."
Well, it’s also called “Journey to the West”.
Lu Xun and Ji Li's destination this time happened to be in the west. As they were heading west, it was appropriate to tell this story.
Unexpectedly, after Lu Xun had finished telling part of the story, Ji Li asked, "Lu Xun, did you also hear this story from a storyteller in a restaurant?"
"What does it mean? Have you heard of it?" Lu Xun asked.
"Yes, I have listened to the storyteller several times when I was eating in a restaurant before." Ji Li said.
Lu Xun: “…”
Damn those stupid players, they made "Journey to the West" a household name so quickly?
It seems that the day when the heroes and practitioners kill the enemies happily while shouting "Kill one person every ten steps, and leave no trace in a thousand miles" is not far away.
He looked at Ji Li and asked, "Since you have heard a lot, why didn't you interrupt me when I was talking?"
"It's different. I want to hear you talk more!" Ji Li said.
Lu Xun: “…”
Okay, okay, since you have already heard most of "Journey to the West", I will change to another one, emm... let me tell you the story of "105 Men and 3 Fallen Women"!
In this way, time passed quickly, and a few days later, the two arrived in Xizhou.
Xizhou is worthy of being the territory of Yijian Mountain and Wanjian Mountain. Not to mention sword cultivators, even most mortal warriors would choose to practice sword.
Even some young men who are not good at martial arts would wear a long sword on their waist as a decoration.
Children's favorite toy is the wooden sword.
Here, swords are the trendiest thing!
This made Lu Xun doubt for a moment, wouldn't I, a swordsman, become the most fashionable man in Xizhou?
Let’s get back to the topic. For sword practitioners from all over the world, if they come to Xizhou, there is one attraction they must visit, and that is the boundary monument of Xizhou.
On the boundary marker of Xizhou, there are four large characters written:
——【Kendo Forever Prosperous】!
According to legend, these four characters were written by the founder of Jianshan sect himself. They have a long history and contain mysteries!
In fact, over the years, there have indeed been many talented sword practitioners who have gained some insights after observing the boundary monuments.
There were even mortals who learned cultivation methods and sword techniques after observing the boundary monument!
Therefore, this boundary monument is also known as one of the three great treasures of Xizhou, along with the [Divine Sword] of Yijian Mountain and the [Sword Jade] of Wanjian Mountain.
However, the latter two are controlled by the [Sword Wielder] of Yijian Mountain and the [Successor] of Wanjian Mountain, and ordinary people cannot even see them.
The boundary marker is just placed there, and everyone can watch it, whether you are from Xizhou or Jianshan.
Even if you are a mortal, you can do it.
No charge...
As for whether you can get opportunities and gain something from it, it depends on your ability.
Lu Xun admired such magnanimity and elegance.
Perhaps just as it is written on the boundary monument, the founder of Jianshan only wished for the sword to prosper forever!
Since Lu Xun has come to Xizhou, he naturally wants to take Ji Li to see the boundary marker.
When he flew nearby, he put away the paper crane and started walking.
This is an unwritten rule that flying in front of boundary markers and overlooking boundary markers are prohibited.
This is a rule that sword practitioners all over the world voluntarily follow to show respect.
If anyone dares to fly here, he will surely arouse public anger!
