Chapter 2

Taomi lived on Lingxu Mountain. She originally had limited qualifications. Even if she lived hundreds of years, it was only because of the maintenance of medicine. But unexpectedly, after falling into the water, she actually got through.

After clearing the meridians, you can practice some magic techniques.

For this reason, Taoyao was very happy and found a very beautiful long sword to give to Taomi. From then on, it became Taomi's weapon. The first thing Taomi learned with that sword was sword flying.

At the beginning, Taoyao was still afraid that Taomi would have a psychological shadow because of the last time she fell into the water, so she was trembling. But after seeing Taomi able to fly with a sword independently, she finally put her mind at ease.

A year has passed in the blink of an eye. During this year, Taomi has made great progress. Not only did she learn to fly with a sword, but she also learned many spells.

"Mi'er, my sister is really happy for you that you can achieve what you have now."

"Thank you, sister." Taomi sat under the tree, wiping her sword.

"Then if there is anything you want, sister can go find it for you?"

"I don't have anything I want, I'm fine just like this." Taomi replied, quite a bit happy-go-lucky.

Seeing that she was so Buddhist, Tao Yao sighed again in her heart. She has been out practicing for so long, why is her sister still so ignorant of worldly affairs?

Is it because of amnesia?

Then she sat next to Taomi and said, "I heard that the new generation of disciples is going out for training. Do you want to follow? You have been coming to Lingxu Mountain for many years. Although you have gone out a few times, you always come and go in a hurry.

Yes, how about you go out to practice this time too?"

Taomi raised her head, "Experience? With the new disciples?"

"Yes, I heard the elders and master discussed this time that Senior Brother Ling Mu took the disciples there. You should go out with him. I can rest assured that he will take care of you. You don't have to worry about going out with him to train the new disciples.

What do they say about you? If they dare to say something about you, how about my sister helping you deal with them when you come back?"

"oh."

"Oh?" Taoyao was slightly startled, "Then are you going or not?"

"Go." She also wanted to go out and see what the outside world was like.

After receiving the affirmative answer, Tao Yao immediately beamed with joy, "That's good, I'll go talk to Master now, and you should follow."

After saying that, Taoyao stood up and left in a hurry. Taomi looked down at the long sword in her hand, threw the handkerchief that was originally wiping the sword into the air, swung the sword over, and saw that the handkerchief instantly broke into several pieces and fell on the grass.

.

Looking at the broken pieces on the ground, Taomi smiled, but the smile was fleeting and no one saw it. When she raised her head again, she was still the cold Taomi.

Lingxu Mountain is a thousand-year fairy mountain. It recruits disciples every ten years. After a year of recruiting disciples, they go out to practice. After returning, they are divided into two parts, but the disciples of both parts have to stay on Lingxu Mountain for ten years. One part

The students became disciples who entered the house, and some chose to become ordinary disciples. Ten years later, the ordinary disciples returned home and had nothing to do with Lingxu Mountain from then on. The disciples who entered the house had to stay on the mountain forever, and their life spans were very comparable to those of ordinary people.

This is true year after year, year after year.

Taomi also went down the mountain. Lingmu also took good care of Taomi along the way. He didn't let her live with the new disciples. It was also for her sake. He only said that she came out to lead the team with him, and did not say anything.

She also came out to practice together.

Just after leaving the boundary of Lingxu Mountain, they came to a place called Yunxi Mansion. Because it was close to Lingxu Mountain, there were many people coming and going. They were all wearing similar clothes and holding a handful in their hands.

The sword is still very eye-catching.

But the people who live on Lingxu Mountain are not unknown people. They have seen the market to some extent. When they saw this scene, they just took a glance and didn't look at it more.

At noon, everyone had lunch in an inn. A large group of people occupied most of the tables and chairs in the inn.

After the meal, Senior Brother Ling Mu said with a smile: "I know you were not the kind of people who ran around just for a meal before, but after a year on Lingxu Mountain, you must have missed the food at the bottom of the mountain. That meal just now

The food is just to let you know how it tastes outside, and from now on we will have to camp out in the wild and hunt by ourselves."

Everyone was wailing, Ling Mu didn't care about them, everyone has this stage, now these are just trivial matters, come out to practice, if you eat well and sleep well, is it still called practice?

After lunch, the group continued walking forward.

"Senior Sister Taomi, how long have you been here at Lingxu Mountain?" asked a cuter little girl next to Taomi.

Taomi remembers her. Before training, all disciples must have a ranking. She is number one, and her name is Long Yan. "I have been here for hundreds of years."

"It's been hundreds of years. Let me tell you, how come your cultivation is so unfathomable? Senior sister, you are still so powerful." Long Yan said with some envy: "I just celebrated my 100th birthday. I am our family member."

I'm the youngest, senior sister, you have to take more care of me from now on."

"OK."

Long Yan beamed when she got the answer she wanted, "Sister, you are so kind. Those people don't want to play with me. Can I go out to play with you when I return to Lingxu Mountain in the future?"

"sure."

Long Yan smiled even more happily, thinking that Taomi was a good person. Although those people didn't know the daughter of Long Ming, the head of the Mingxin Sect, but because her cultivation was the best among this generation of disciples, all the disciples were at odds with each other.

Not only were they very unfriendly to her when they were playing with her, but they also ganged up to bully her. Fortunately, she was powerful, otherwise those people would have been wasted.

Now that the senior sister is willing to play with her, the senior sister is a good person.

Taomi, who was given the good guy card for no reason, didn't realize it at all. She just held the sword in her hand and walked forward without saying a word. Her cultivation was not unfathomable as Long Yan said, but it was not there at all.

Although I have been practicing hard for a year, I am only a little better than these disciples.

In the evening, Ling Mu led his disciples to camp in the wild. Basically, everyone selected by Lingxu Mountain was someone with some level of cultivation. As long as they had some level of cultivation, they could easily use the portable space. Before setting off,

Lingxu Mountain gave each of them a portable space with tents and clothes, but no money.

As the team leader, Lingmu can easily see what is in these people's spaces, so he is not afraid of them doing something lazy because of the space.

Frogs croaked and cicadas chirped. Such sounds could be heard all around. As Taomi lay in the tent, she could still hear the irritable sounds of people in the tent next to her because they couldn't sleep.

Closing her eyes, Taomi also fell into sleep.

She has been in this world for a year, and she has always lived a very simple life. When she sleeps, she sleeps. But this night, she had a dream for some reason.

In the dream, she was in darkness, surrounded by crows and bats flying by, and black feathers fell from time to time. There was only a crescent moon above her head, and there was nothing else. There was such a thing in the darkness.

The little bit of moonlight made it look even more eerie.

Taomi couldn't help but shiver and looked around, wondering where this was, what the hell was this place?

After taking two steps forward, there was scorched earth everywhere and the smell of blood.

"You are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

A small voice came to her ears, and Taomi held the sword warily, "Who?"

"It's me, have you forgotten me?"

Taomi only saw a thick fog in front of her, slowly turning into a human form. It was a man in black clothes. When the man saw Taomi frowning, his eyebrows also twisted up. After a moment, he realized, "Look,

Me, I haven’t seen you for so long that I forgot that you don’t like the environment here, you always think it’s too dark here.”

The man came over, took Tao Mi's hand, and waved his other hand. The surrounding environment changed instantly. It was no longer dim, but instead there were birds singing and flowers fragrant. From time to time, small butterflies landed on Tao Mi's body, and the green grass

The smell of flowers spreads between the nostrils.

"Who are you? Where are you?"

The man turned back and looked at Taomi strangely, "Don't you? You don't even remember your own brother? Have you really lost your memory?"

As he spoke, the man wanted to put his hand on Taomi's head to see what was wrong with her. Taomi dodged and the man was stunned, "Mi'er, what are you doing? We haven't seen each other for a few years. If you do it again,

If this happens, my brother will be angry."

"Taoyao said she was my sister, but she didn't say I had an older brother. We were adopted by Master when we were young. I don't know what older brother I have."

Taomi's words made the man a little embarrassed, "Did she really say that to you?"

Taomi nodded, but the man was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "Well, since she won't tell you about me, I won't force you. I'll send you back first. Let's talk about the rest later."

But as I said in advance, you are not allowed to forget me, otherwise you will see how I deal with you."

The next second, Taomi lost consciousness. When she woke up again, it was already bright. She walked out of the tent and rubbed her head. Suddenly, the murder weapon was the dream last night. Who was that man?

"Junior sister, you're awake. You're so naughty that you actually slept in. You don't know how to set an example for these new disciples." Ling Mu joked after seeing her get up.

Taomi smiled and said nothing. Except for the dream, her body was still very comfortable now. "Senior sister, what is this on you?"

At this time, Long Yan came over, took a feather from her body and said strangely: "Isn't this a crow's feather? Why is it on your body, senior sister? There don't seem to be crows around here?"

Taomi took the feathers, the black feathers, the crow's feathers. Could it be that everything she encountered last night was not just a dream?

"I don't know why?"

Taomi said so and Long Yan didn't say anything. Taomi looked at the completely black feather in her hand and had many questions in her heart, but there was no one here to ask or answer her.

While having breakfast, Ling Mu called Taomi, but when she didn't respond, he came over and said, "What are you looking at? It's time to eat."

"Senior brother, do you know what happened before my sister and I came to Lingxu Mountain?"

Ling Mu was confused by Taomi's question, but he still said truthfully: "What happened before you came to Lingxu Mountain? You were still a baby when you came, and Taoyao was only five years old. I remember that the master still found someone at the bottom of the mountain.

Aunt Liu who lives here can give you milk, otherwise you would probably have starved to death. As for what happened before you came, I heard from Master that it was because of the plague. He passed by and saw that you two were not infected, so I thought

I wanted to find a family to adopt you, but later I found out that you had good qualifications, so I left you in Lingxu Mountain."

"Senior brother, do you know if I have any other relatives?" Taomi continued to ask.

"Other relatives?" Ling Mu thought for a moment, "Probably not. Master said there is a plague in your place. If there are other relatives, he will probably rescue them together, and he won't think of finding someone else for you.
To be continued...
