Xiao Zi was stunned. "Fairy!"

When the beautiful woman heard this, she let out a faint smile, which made the already dark Sage Gathering Manor seem like a paradise, "It's not even some fairy maiden, it's just a ghost that sucks blood from the countryside. Aren't you afraid?"

The woman's voice was like the voice of a fairy. Even the voice of the oriole or famous actress that Xiao Zi had heard before couldn't be compared to this woman's voice.

The Dao of Mount Shu was harder than the blue sky! The reason why the Dao of Shu was so difficult was not only because of its treacherous terrain, but also because of the many bandits that had been lying in ambush here. Over the years, countless heroes of the martial arts world had perished here.

Xiao Zi didn't understand why this big sister fairy had come here. He also didn't believe that such a beautiful person would become a bandit. "Big sister fairy." Xiao Zi broke the silence. The girl didn't return Xiao Zi, but raised her head to look at Shu Dao as she muttered to herself, "It's been a year. I've finally returned." Xiao Zi was naturally intelligent, so she knew that this big sister fairy must have met with some troubles outside before she could return here.

As she was thinking, Xiao Zi's stomach suddenly cried out in frustration. She immediately covered it with her hands and embarrassedly laughed dryly. She hadn't eaten dinner, so she was getting hungrier and hungrier. "I'm a bit hungry."

"Little Slick knows how to get hungry?"

"Hehe …" Xiao Zi scratched her head with a reddened face, and just as she wanted to say something more, she felt her big sister fairy grab her collar with one hand and leap three feet into the air with a single leap. The woman kicked her feet repeatedly as she flew along the foot of the mountain towards the mountainside, and in the blink of an eye, she had already landed on the ground. He was so scared that his face turned purple and his forehead began to drip with cold sweat. The speed just now had been too fast, so fast that he hadn't been able to clearly see the scenery around him, and he only felt a blurry and strong wind. When he landed on the ground, he was already high up the mountain. Xiao Zi coughed twice, and touched Little Black with lingering fear. Fortunately, Little Black was not thrown away at that time.

When the woman saw Xiao Zi's panicked appearance, she covered her mouth and laughed. "Slick, if you want to eat, then just follow me." Xiao Zi hurriedly turned around and followed behind her. The woman brought Xiao Zi to the mountainside and made a left and right turn. After walking for about an hour, they stopped at a mountain wall. The woman turned a stone in the bottom left corner of the cliff. There was a rumbling sound coming from inside the cliff, and then the cliff rose up like a gate, revealing a pitch-black cave. Xiao Zi was once again shocked, and seeing the woman walk in, she couldn't help but think for a moment before following her. As soon as Xiao Zi entered the cave, the mountain walls behind her closed with a rumbling sound. Everything suddenly became pitch black, and she couldn't even see her five fingers in front of her.

The girl took out a fire and lit it up. The dim light only illuminated the stairs under her feet. It was still pitch black in front of her. Xiao Zi followed the girl and carefully walked down the stairs. When she reached the end of the stairs, she slapped the wall and a bright light shone in front of her. At the end of the stairs, there was a hall, about a hundred square meters. There were tunnels on the left and right sides of the hall, but no one knew where it led. The woman put out the fire in her hand. "The Ghost Cave of the Dao of Shu, the number one cave in the world." Founded in the Han Dynasty, it has been over a hundred years since then. "He once stood at the very top of the Martial Forest. However, he became extremely weak later on. Now, I am the only one left in this line."

The woman's expression could not be described as lonely, causing Xiao Zi's heart to be in pain. "Big sister fairy maiden is so powerful, I believe this ghost hole of Shu is also very powerful. If anyone is more powerful than big sister fairy today, it would be the first time I don't believe it." The woman laughed playfully at Xiao Zi, "This ghost cave is passed down from our ancestors, this hall is called the Divine Path Hall, and the left passageway leads to the Enlightenment Hall, the Technique Hall, the An Xi hall, and the Enlightenment Hall not only has the martial arts techniques left behind by the Senior ghost cave, but also has all kinds of strange things, such as astronomical geography and mathematical formations. These were the Ghost Cave's most precious treasures. The Cultivation Hall was a place for the Ghost Cave disciples to practice martial arts. There were also many good weapons that had been collected by the Ghastly Cave disciples. As for the Serenity Hall, it was a place where ancestral tablets were stored, so disciples other than ghost cave disciples were not allowed to enter. The tunnel on the right is leading to the various disciples' residences, but I am the only one living in this large ghost cave. "

Xiao Zi was surprised in her heart. "I didn't expect this big sister fairy to be so lonely." Big Sister Fairy, then what do you usually do? Is it not boring to always stay here? "

"No need to call me big sister fairy. I'm called Zi Yan, there's nothing to be bored about. I just need to get used to it."

Xiao Zi rolled her eyes. "You have to call me Big Sister Fairy. Big Sister is like a fairy from the start, so that's the most appropriate way to address me."

The woman rolled her eyes at Xiao Zi, "Slick, you only know how to say nice words to deceive people. If I let you out in the future, all the girls in this world will suffer."

Without waiting for Xiao Zi to speak, the purple smoke walked into the hole on the right. Xiao Zi put Xiao Hei down and let it run away happily. Not long later, Zi Yan walked out with a bamboo basket filled with delicious fruits. "There are a lot of fruit trees in the cave. I usually eat these. You eat first, I don't know how to make delicious food." Finished. Zi Yan's face turned red. Xiao Zi was extremely hungry, so she didn't care about anything else. She picked up a piece of fruit and started to eat it big mouthfuls. As she ate, she muttered about how delicious it was. When Zi Yan saw Xiao Zi happily eating, she squatted to the side and watched. Xiao Zi was embarrassed from being stared at. She slowed down her pace. "Hehe, Big Sister Fairy, have you never eaten the delicacies outside?"

"Yes." Zi Yan nodded and replied.

"It's fine. When I become a hero and have money, I'll take Big Sister Fairy out to eat whatever she wants."

Zi Yan looked at the dirty Xiao Zi. She wasn't even able to eat, yet she made such a promise with such a serious expression. She actually didn't feel funny. Instead, she silently nodded and felt her heart warm.

Very quickly, Xiao Zi finished all the fruits in the bamboo basket and patted her full stomach. "Elder sister fairy, is there anything else?" I want to give some to Blacky to eat. " Zi Yan nodded, plucked a few more fruits, and fed them to Xiao Hei.

After Xiao Hei finished eating, Xiao Zi stood up and bowed to Zi Yan, "Thank you elder sister fairy. I'm leaving."

"Leave?" Zi Yan frowned. "Where are you going?"

Xiao Zi shook her head. "Where can I go? "Isn't it just begging everywhere? I might starve to death on the street in the near future."

Zi Yan saw Xiao Zi and sighed, "Since I've brought you here, you should stay here. Didn't you say that you want to take me out to eat all the delicacies in the world? What's the matter?"

"But right now, I'm just a beggar. I'm still far from becoming a hero." Zi Yan looked at Xiao Zi's ashamed face as she stood there. Her gentle eyes suddenly became firm. "Then why don't you stay for the time being. You can just bring me along when you become a hero."

The echo of these words continuously echoed, but Xiao Ziyan was ecstatic in her heart. Who didn't wish for a stable life? Who didn't wish to have a place to sleep and eat everyday? Who didn't wish to learn peerless martial arts and become a great hero of this generation? In the past, Xiao Zi had always thought that there was no hope in this life, but she didn't expect that the opportunity would be right in front of her today.

"Elder sister fairy, are you for real?"

Zi Yan smiled and nodded slightly. "Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, we'll pull the hook."

"There's no need to pull the hook. All of those useless things are just deceiving little kids. Thank you, big sister fairy!" Xiao Zi jumped with joy. She no longer had to be a beggar; she could finally become a hero. Xiao Zi pondered in her heart. Zi Yan was truly a fairy after all. She had brought her good luck on the first day she had met her.

"Don't be happy yet. If you don't listen to me, I will throw you down from the Dao of Shu."

"I'll listen, I'll listen. I'll do whatever big sister fairy tells me to." "Then go take a bath first, your body stinks like hell."

Xiao Zi had not bathed for many years and was already immune to the smell on her body. However, after hearing what Zi Yan said, she still obediently followed Zi Yan into the cave on the right. Zi Yan brought Xiao Zi to a door and stopped, "You can stay here from now on. At the end of the cave is the lake water. If you take a bath from there, I'll stay next to you." After speaking, Zi Yan walked into his room.

In the room, there was a bed, a table, and a chair. On the table were the , the , the "Classic of the Way of the Tao >, and the .

The lake was not very big, but there were a few red carp swimming in the lake. The lake was very clear, and it was possible to see the bottom of the lake, which was interconnected with the spring water outside the mountain. The lake water was not deep, and was only about one meter in depth. After about an hour, Xiao Zi caught two carp and washed herself clean. She swam ashore and put on her clothes. She went to the side of the tree and broke off a few branches. She took out a fire from her room and roasted the fish.

Xiao Zi took the grilled fish and ate one for herself. The taste wasn't bad, so she took the remaining fish to the Purple Smoke Sect's entrance and knocked on the door. "Big sister fairy, try the grilled fish I made." Zi Yan opened the door and was surprised to see the dirty little beggar. He was clearly someone from a noble family. He was about 170 years old, had a handsome face, and although his eyes were small, they were slender. Zi Yan frowned when she saw the grilled fish in Xiao Zi's hand. She picked it up and tasted it. "Who asked you to kill the fish in the lake?"

"This." I'm sorry elder sister fairy, I don't know. "

"Yes, but the taste is not bad." Seeing that he was scared, she quickly turned her face away. Hearing this, Xiao Zi rejoiced in her heart. After she finished eating, she threw away the fish bone. She was still indescribably excited in her heart. Zi Yan didn't allow him to enter the other room and told him to rest early, so she went back to her room to practice. Xiao Zi was afraid of angering Zi Yan, so she didn't run around blindly. Instead, she wandered around her room. It was not until late at night that he finally fell asleep, filled with excitement.
