The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 155 The fox pretends to be the tiger's power
The small cave was quite dark.

After a faint humming sound, the sound gradually faded away.

There seemed to be a wine-red on Yang Huan's cheeks, his black hair stuck to his forehead, his eyes were lifeless, only the spring in his brows was evident, he was breathing slightly, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Thirsty." After a while, Yang Huan spoke in a low voice. His tone sounded strange, without any of his usual drunkard demeanor.

Lin Bai didn't have the face to stop her from drinking, so he could only take out the gourd.

Yang Huan kept drinking, so Lin Bai went to provoke her.

"Is it more fragrant than wine?" She pushed Lin Bai's head away and stuffed the wine gourd into his mouth, "Drink this."

Lin Baicai refused to drink and pushed her over again. This sister Huanhuan's natal jade gourd, which is said to be able to hide, is actually a water gourd.

It may also be because of my love of drinking.

Lin Bai found it quite amusing, but Yang Huan became even more embarrassed.

After a few rounds of fighting, the two finally took a break.

"Does your family have anyone who practices the art of escape?"

Lin Bai has always been thick-skinned. Once he has served someone well, he will start to live off that person.

This is not shameful, Lin Bai had eaten Jiang Xiaomei's gigolo a lot, but that girl was too cunning, she kept giving away the gigolo bit by bit, and would not let Lin Bai eat enough.

Yang Huanxin was enjoying the new thing. He was very docile now and had no other thoughts in his mind. His shyness was slightly reduced.

"Do you want to learn how to escape?" Yang Huanhuan asked curiously, with her chin resting on Lin Bai's belly.

"Of course I want to learn." Lin Bai touched her head, "I saw Yue Xixia's escape technique that day, and I have been longing for it ever since."

Yang Huan thought for a while and shook his head, "It's difficult."

Seeing that Lin Bai was really interested, she began to explain without reservation.

The method of escape is a unique one, those who can learn this method are either those who are blessed by heaven and have innate supernatural powers, or those who have comprehended it on their own, but this requires extremely high talent and comprehension.

Such as the more common earth escape and water escape, which allow one to move through earth, rocks and water within a certain range.

There are also wood escape techniques, which allow one to escape from one tree to another within a certain range, and fire escape techniques, which work the same way.

This type of five-element escape technique uses the five elements as a medium to jump between the five elements. However, the distance of its spatial jump is quite limited, and it is very easy to be targeted.

In addition to the five elements, there are many other rare escape methods, such as Yue Xixia's cloud escape method and thunder escape.

According to Yang Huan, there are ancient records in the Qiaoshan School that record that there was once a person with an extremely strange fate. He mastered the magical power of blood escape and could shuttle between living things. He used the blood of others and his own blood as a carrier. Every time he jumped and escaped, there would be casualties. His methods were very strange.

"The ability to escape depends most on talent and destiny. Some people will never understand it in their entire lives, while some people can gain something just by relying on their destiny." Yang Huan's voice was very soft. "If you want to learn, I will find some books for you after I go back. Maybe you will be able to gain some insights. But the corresponding techniques are probably hard to find."

"Sister Huanhuan, you are so kind." Lin Bai was very touched.

Thinking about how Jiang Xiaobai even skimped on his money, he was even more moved. So he quickly stood up and served him carefully.

After a bit of noise, the two chatted again.

Women are such strange creatures of nature. Once you get to know each other well, and become familiar with each other, they will feel less and less ashamed.

Yang Huan was drunk at this moment. She fell on Lin Bai and slurped it all up.

Five days passed quickly. Seeing that Sister Huanhuan no longer played chess and only drank and chatted, and her play became more and more chaotic, Lin Bai decided to leave.

The deep mountains and dangerous places were not a place for long-term happiness. Moreover, this drunkard became more and more shameless, wanting to try everything, regardless of her injuries.

After Lin Bai coaxed her for a long time, she took out a wine gourd and shared most of the wine with her. Only then did she agree to leave the cave.

A small bird was carved on the stone pier where Xiao Huang had lived for a long time to indicate that a good friend had visited.

Leave the three storage rings and Liu Tianhe’s talismans behind.

"Xiao Huang is really my best friend. Both times I ate melons, I was in her territory. Next time I see you, you must call her Sister Xiao Huang."

Lin Bai muttered to himself and pulled Sister Huanhuan out.

There were many broken trees in the valley, but new branches grew again in just a few days. Although the Golden Crow was strong, it could not stop the spring breeze and rain, and all things fought for their lives.

After a few days of sinking, I finally saw the light of day.

Yang Huan looked up at the sky blankly, then looked at Lin Bai. Thinking about the absurd days in the cave, her cheeks turned red again.

She licked the corner of her mouth, remembering that she not only drank alcohol, but also ate a lot. Although it was voluntary, she felt inexplicably ashamed at this moment.

"You're so disgusting." Yang Huan glared at Lin Bai and walked forward.

Why am I disgusted? Lin Bai was speechless, but it wasn't the first time that he had a falling out after sleeping with her, so he was used to it.

They left the valley one after another and returned along the same route.

There was still a faint, fishy mist in the sky, and dark shadows flashed by from time to time.

The two were extremely careful, and when they were still a dozen miles out of the mountain, Yang Huan went back first. Lin Bai hesitated for another five days, and the time was staggered.

This time Yang Huan was injured, Lin Bai was fine, so going back would inevitably arouse suspicion. Moreover, Yang Huan had lost his vital energy, which others could not see, but his elders could always see something.

In order to prevent any trouble, the two agreed to go into the mountain at the same time, but they separated after getting drunk. Lin Bai went to look for Gu Feixue, but Yang Huan encountered a monster.

Anyway, Lin Bai is not afraid of being asked. Yang Huan is a Yuanying stage person, so no one dares to ask except her elders.

When we got out of the mountain, we saw the Qiaoshan Sect’s headquarters, and it felt like a different world.

Gu Fang had come forward early, "You must have suffered a lot in the mountains?" Seeing that Lin Bai's Taoist robe was torn and his face looked weathered, she spoke to comfort him.

"What are these hardships? It's a blessing to be able to come back safely." Lin Bai sighed.

"Thank you for your hard work. Come with me." Gu Fang patted Lin Bai's shoulder gently.

As he walked, Lin Bai looked around and felt that the Qiaoshan faction's garrison was unusually tidy. There were few people chatting, but occasionally there was a faint smell of blood, which must have meant that many people were injured.

"I don't know why the jackdaw went crazy last time, as if someone had provoked it, and it really caused the three sects to lose many heroes." After entering the tent, Gu Fang sat down and sighed quietly, "How are you this time? Did you see Feixue?"

"After I entered the mountain, I asked everyone I met, but no one had seen Senior Sister Gu." Lin Bai picked up the teacup and drank the fragrant tea he had given to Gu Fang. He said helplessly, "After half a month, I don't know why, the jackdaw kept crying, as if it was crazy, so I found a tree hole and hid there."

Gu Fang smiled and said, "Is the monkey wine full again?"

"It's just on the way." Lin Bai smiled bitterly and thought that judging from your appearance, Gu Feixue should still be alive.

Gu Fang didn't blame him. It was good enough that he was willing to go into the mountain. There was no need to blame him too much.

"How is Senior Sister Feixue?" Lin Bai asked casually.

"People from the Yunxia Sect have seen her before. She went deep into Mianlong Mountain." Gu Fang also smiled bitterly.

"What about Zhu Jianyang?" This is what Lin Bai is concerned about.

"Don't worry, he is safe and sound with Gu Yao." Gu Fang said.

Gu Yao is also the Gu family's golden elixir seedling, only slightly inferior to Gu Feixue.

After chatting for a few more words, Lin Bai returned the Yan Guiling and the letter, and then said goodbye.

As soon as I walked out of the tent, I saw Yang Shu waiting for me.

"Did you encounter flying snow?" Yang Shu asked anxiously.

Lin Bai shook his head and asked, "How is your sister?"

"She got hurt a bit, but she managed to escape death." Yang Shu smiled bitterly, "She got nothing from this trip into the mountains. She didn't say anything when asked, and just kept drinking." Yang Shu tapped his chest and whispered, "I'm afraid she's in a bad mood. You can go see her later."

Lin Bai didn't believe that Sister Huanhuan had any mental problems. She could obviously eat and drink.

"Let's wait until evening and have a good drink. I'll go to the Jiang family and Tianchi sect first." Lin Bai said.

The two chatted for a while and then parted ways. Lin Bai went to take a look at the Jiang family's residence.

The Jiang family lost a man in the mountains, and now his family no longer goes into the mountains.

When I went to Tianchi Sect again, Gai Qiuyan and Yao Qianchi had not returned yet.

At nightfall, the Yang siblings arrived.

Yang Huan was just drinking, while Yang Shu and Lin Bai were chatting.

"Why does this settlement seem a little different after I've been in the mountains for more than a month? Is there some important person here?" Seeing that Yang Shu was drunk and confused, Lin Bai started to inquire.

Yang Huan glanced at Lin Bai, curled his lips and said nothing.

"Big shot?" Yang Shu sneered and whispered, "Of course he is a big shot. Our leader is here."

"Master Yue? He is here instead of staying at the sect?" Lin Bai asked in surprise, "Why is Master Yue here?"

"What else could it be?" Yang Shu couldn't help laughing, and lowered his voice very low. "Our Master Yue has three disciples. Last time, Wang Ping was killed, and now his first disciple Yue Xixia has been killed. He is resentful."

"Is this true? Could it be the work of a jackdaw?" Lin Bai was shocked.

"Drink!" Yang Huan picked up the wine bowl. "Who knows? Anyway, he is in Longmenfang, pleading with the three Yuanying ancestors to go into the mountains to kill the jackdaw." Yang Shu held the wine bowl and laughed softly, "You didn't see that Master Yue rushed here in a hurry a few days ago and got very angry at us."

"This..." Lin Bai was stunned. He thought that Yue Fengshu was the leader of Qiaoshan Sect. Although he was only in charge of menial affairs, he was still an important figure after all. How could he be so petty?
If you are worried about the safety of your beloved disciple, then don't let him enter the mountain; but once he enters the mountain, don't worry about life or death.

I want to obtain the great fortune from Fairy Chen Yu, but I don't want to suffer any harm at all. How can such a good thing happen in the world?
As the head of the Qiaoshan sect's general affairs department and the direct descendant of a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, if he only has this much ambition, it will be difficult for him to advance to a higher level in the future.

"The leader wants to stop this matter, but the Yunxia Sect's Yuanying disagrees, and the person from Jiuyin Mountain has an ambiguous attitude." Yang Shu laughed.

Lin Bai immediately understood that there were many people entering the mountain this time, and many people from the three major sects had lost their lives in the mountain, and many had not returned yet. However, since the Yunxia Sect had the least number of people entering the mountain, they must be hoping that this would continue so that more good talents could be killed by the Qiaoshan Sect and Jiuyin Mountain.

None of these three factions are stupid.

After drinking until the moon was at its highest point in the sky, Yang Shu became drunk and murmured the words "Flying Snow".

"You go back first and let Yang Shu rest here with me." Lin Bai said.

"You, you...really?" Yang Huan glanced at Lin Bai, then lowered his head. His face turned redder and he didn't dare to look him in the eye.

What is Sister Huan Huan thinking? Your brother is still here, do you really think I dare to mess around?
"Really." Lin Bai held his forehead and nodded.

"If you had told me earlier I wouldn't have come..." She muttered and staggered away.

After resting for three days, Lin Bai went to say goodbye to Gu Fang.

As for that vixen, I no longer dare to think about her and should just go back to Xinyifang and live a peaceful life.

"Wait a little longer." Gu Fang didn't let him go.

"Sister Fang," Lin Bai sighed, "I am of no use here, so it is useless to stay any longer. Besides, I was born as a casual cultivator, and now I only make some money by refining pills. But I can't concentrate on refining pills here, so I will waste a lot of time and earn less spirit stones."

"This is five hundred medium-quality goods. I'll buy you a month's supply." Gu Fang threw over a purse.

"I'm not the kind of person who is greedy for money..." Lin Bai put away the spirit stone.

The two were chatting idly when suddenly a faint pressure from the Nascent Soul descended.

"The ancestor is here!" Gu Fang immediately came out of the tent happily.

Lin Bai hurriedly followed, thinking which ancestor of your family is this? One of the three Yuanyings in Longmenfang before was the new ancestor of the Gu family, whom Lin Bai had never seen before.

When he left the tent, everyone knelt down outside. The people who were practicing Jindan, Jianji, and Lianqi were all familiar faces, including the Yang siblings, the Jiang brothers, and the people from Tianchi Sect.

There was also a woman in green standing in front of the group, facing Mianlong Mountain with her back to everyone else, looking quite frail.

Beside the woman in green stood an old monk in brocade clothes, bending over and looking respectfully.

"Don't just stand there, kneel down quickly." Gu Fang quickly pulled Lin Bai to kneel down.

Lin Bai knelt down obediently, thinking, is this Gu Qingshui? The person next to him should be Yue Fengshu, the head of Qiaoshan Sect.

"Li Chenyu, we are old friends, please come out and have a chat." Gu Qingshui's voice was very mellow.

The voice was faint, as if it came from a very far away, yet as if it was right next to my ear.

As soon as he finished speaking, a tiger roared in Mianlong Mountain. Then there was the sound of rocks collapsing, the trees splitting apart, and a gust of wind blew in.

I saw a yellow and white striped tiger as big as a hill coming from the air with a rumbling momentum.

This tiger was clearly in the middle stage of the Golden Core, but it was extremely powerful. It fell to the ground, only ten feet away from Gu Qingshui, opened its bloody mouth, and roared wildly.

For a moment, the three factions' garrisons were all filled with a murderous aura. The foundation-building cultivators were fine, but many of the Qi-cultivating cultivators were so scared that they collapsed to the ground, their faces pale and their crotches wet.

At this moment, everyone felt a faint mist of water on their bodies. They did not feel frightened but felt comfortable instead.

The big tiger also lay down obediently, turned its head, and unexpectedly a small yellow bird flew out of its ear.

"Xiaoshui," the yellow bird spoke in human language as it flew towards Gu Qingshui. It was actually an old man's voice, "Do you have something to talk to me about?" The yellow bird flapped its wings and seemed to be yawning.

"Don't talk like my brother." Gu Qingshui waved his sleeves impatiently, "Yue Fengshu came to me and wanted to ask you for a favor."

After Gu Qingshui finished speaking, his figure moved, the mist dissipated, and the person disappeared.

The pressure from the Nascent Soul dissipated, and everyone felt relieved. Seeing Gu Fang standing up, Lin Bai also quickly stood up.

"Little Bean Sprout, what's the matter?" Huang Que spoke again, and this time it was Gu Qingshui's voice.

Yue Fengshu bowed and saluted, saying, "Fairy, two of my disciples died in the mountains. May I ask who did it?"

"How should I know?" Huang Que's voice changed again, it was an old and deep male voice, "I was sleeping the whole time."

"Please don't imitate my teacher's way of speaking, fairy." Yue Fengshu said while bending over.

"You are the leader, I will listen to you." Huang Que changed his tone again, still an old man's voice, but much higher.

Lin Bai glanced around and saw that Yang Jia Jindan's face was not looking good.

Okay, this time I’ll learn Yang family’s Nascent Soul!

"Fairy," Yue Fengshu's face was also ugly, but he could only endure it. He bowed and saluted, saying: "Junior wants to know, who harmed my beloved disciple? Can the Mist Shadow Jackdaw belong to the fairy?"

The little yellow bird fluttered and flew, landing on the head of a young foundation-building man, and said, "I don't know what you said, but you keep asking. Are you annoying?"

It was still an old male voice, and this time it was Cheng Jia Jindan who looked unhappy.

The little yellow bird flicked its tail feathers, leaving a loose ball on the man's head.

"You are too petty." Huang Que spoke in a lazy female voice, "Everyone's family has dead people, but you are the one who rushes to ask. Isn't it embarrassing for Qiaoshan Sect? Is Lao Xiang in seclusion? He would not do such a petty thing!"

"Why disturb my sweet dream!" Huang Que was very impatient, as if she was grouchy. "I didn't force you to come here. It was all voluntary. Why do you want to regret it?" She flew around them and reminded them, "Now that someone has found me, you need to do your best."

“In that case, now that the matter here is settled, there is no need to close the mountain anymore.” Yue Fengshu said hurriedly.

"What a pity," Huang Que sighed, "That little girl hasn't established her foundation yet, it's against the rules."

Lin Bai looked at the yellow bird and felt that it looked more and more familiar. After hearing these words, he thought, could this little bird be the one raised by Xiao Huang?

"This..." Yue Fengshu lowered his head and said nothing.

The little yellow bird landed on Yang Shu's hand and stared at it for a while. "Do you still have that kind of dream every day?"

“……” Yang Shu blushed and said nothing.

The little yellow bird looked at Yang Huan again, "Oh, being a sister is a promising thing."

Yang Huan quickly lowered his head and dared not say a word.

The little yellow bird jumped around and chatted with acquaintances, without saying a single nice word and without acting like an elder at all.

After making a lot of noise for a long time, no one dared to refute and just let the oriole do whatever it wanted.

"I'm so sleepy. I'm leaving now." The little yellow bird landed on Yang Huan's head, turned its little head over, and fell asleep.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, the little yellow bird turned over and stood up again, looking confused.

The yellow bird chirped, looked around, fluttered to Lin Bai's hand, pecked it a few times, and actually showed intention to get close to him.

This is the bird Huang Ruhua raised! Lin Bai is now really sure!
In this case, the person who found Fairy Chen Yu must be Huang Ruhua! But Huang Ruhua has not yet established her foundation, so she is afraid that she cannot swallow this blessing.

"Fairy Chenyu's messenger is close to you." Gu Fang said with a smile.

Lin Bai smiled and said, "Maybe it's because I've always been kind to others, never killed, and never done evil. Even when I'm walking on the road, I avoid ants and insects."

Yang Huan glanced at it and silently took a sip of wine.

Lin Bai took out a few more grains of rice, and the little yellow bird pecked at them one by one, jumping around happily.

"Why do you still carry spiritual grains with you?" Gu Fang asked curiously.

"I have a bad disciple. I taught her how to fish before and prepared some spiritual grains and rice to use as bait." Lin Bai explained with a smile.

Gu Jinzhen stroked his beard and smiled, saying: "I believe that your love and care for your disciple is just like that of Sect Master Yue." As he spoke, he looked at Yue Fengshu with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Yue Fengshu waved his sleeves and left.

Lin Bai had a headache and thought to himself, you guys are fighting among yourselves, why do you have to involve me?
"This..." Lin Bai quickly grabbed Gu Fang and whispered, "I am innocent. Don't let Sect Leader Yue hold a grudge against me."

"What are you afraid of?" Gu Jinzhen smiled, "Our leader is the most broad-minded."

If you were broad-minded, you wouldn't be begging Fairy Chen Yu! Lin Bai didn't say anything, but he had a headache.

At this moment, a tiger roared, as if urging them to do so.

Lin Bai then remembered that the bird was still in his hand.

He quickly stepped forward, holding the yellow bird in both hands, bowed and saluted, and said, "Please, Mr. Shan, send the fairy messenger back."

The tiger looked at Lin Bai with its eyes shining, then let out another wild roar. A sudden gust of wind blew up the little yellow bird and it fell into its ears.

He immediately flew up and walked into the depths of Mianlong Mountain.
