Chapter 227

When looking at the map before, He Pingsheng felt that, being in the same Shangdang Commandery, under the condition of flying on a sword, it would take at most two days to go from Mount Shenjiang to Mount Li.

But as a result, he overestimated his own speed.

And underestimated the distance between these two places.

On the way, he swallowed the Golden Bee Sacred Nectar several times, and after spending about five days, He Pingsheng finally saw the so-called 【Mount Li】.

During these five days of flight, He Pingsheng was not idle either; at night, he secretly put the 【Jinlan Treasure Robe】 into the Treasure-Gathering Basin to strengthen it, but the result was that he strengthened it for nothing.

The level was too high, it couldn't be strengthened, and it couldn't be turned from one into two.

After arriving at Mount Li, He Pingsheng's face turned black.

Because too much time had passed.

Four days had also passed since the closing of Mount Shenjiang.

What exactly happened in these four days?

If that Long Yuan couldn't find the person with great fortune, what methods would he use?

He didn't know!

He had no idea at all.

What He Pingsheng worried about most was that he would use the power of the entire Qi State to surround and intercept him.

"Forget it..." Looking at the vast mountains before him, He Pingsheng slowed down the speed of his sword flight and began to search while looking at the surroundings: "Better to find Qiao Shijie Qiao and the other one first."

The agreement with Seeing Qiao Huizhu back then was near the highest peak of this Mount Li.

Then let's head to the highest peak first.

"Whoosh..." After flying around for the time it takes to burn two incense sticks, He Pingsheng finally determined the location of that highest peak.

He Pingsheng landed on the summit of the highest peak with a whoosh, and with a movement of magic power in his body, he restored his original appearance.

Then his spiritual sense boomed open simultaneously.

The mountains were layered, where was there even half a shadow of a person?

He Pingsheng couldn't help but become nervous; he flew into the void again and shouted loudly: "Qiao Shijie Qiao!"

This voice was supported by magic power, rippling back and forth in the desolate void and mountains, traveling very, very far.

Just when He Pingsheng was extremely nervous, worrying that Seeing Qiao Huizhu and the others hadn't been able to arrive in time, a sword light suddenly shot out from a deep valley behind him.

He Pingsheng turned his head abruptly to look, only to see that it was indeed Seeing Qiao Huizhu in that flowing light.

Only then did he take a deep breath and set his heart at ease.

"Whoosh..."

The two of them landed on the summit of the highest peak simultaneously, with a tacit understanding.

On the summit, there was a crooked old pine tree.

He Pingsheng sat on the old pine tree, looking at Seeing Qiao Huizhu with a silly smile.

Seeing Qiao Huizhu's complexion was very bad, even a bit haggard.

"What happened to you?" He Pingsheng asked.

Seeing Qiao Huizhu said: "These days I was always worried that you wouldn't be able to come, so I couldn't sleep well either, worried all day long!"

"Damn it, I've stayed in these desolate mountains for a month!"

"Sorry!" He Pingsheng said: "I should have come earlier, but I never found a chance to get away!"

"By the way, where is Qiao Xiaoqiao?"

"Not with you?"

The mountain wind blew, the old tree swayed, and the clouds in the distance and near gathered and dispersed, dispersed and gathered.

If it weren't for being a bit desolate, this place could be considered a sacred place with excellent scenery.

He Pingsheng leaned lazily against this old pine tree, unable to help but feel his body was exceptionally exhausted, wanting so much to lie here, just like this, looking at the beauty on one side and the clouds and mist on the other.

Seeing Qiao Huizhu walked over and leaned lightly on He Pingsheng's shoulder.

A faint fragrance drifted over, making his nose itch.

Seeing Qiao Huizhu said: "I think, if the three of us go to the Liang State together later, it will indeed be too eye-catching, so I let my younger sister head to the Liang land first twenty days ago; she goes first, and the two of us will go later..."

"Only by going one after the other like this will we not attract attention!"

"What do you think, husband?" Seeing Qiao Huizhu turned her head, her nose almost touching He Pingsheng's nose, her two large eyes, like jewels, looking at him.

He Pingsheng nodded and said: "Indeed, Qiao Shijie's arrangement is just right!"

"No time to lose, let's go now!"

He Pingsheng took out the Golden Bee Sacred Nectar and swallowed another drop.

Now he didn't know what the situation was.

"Buzz buzz buzz..." A golden light flashed on He Pingsheng's body, and his figure instantly transformed into a female cultivator.

"You..." Seeing Qiao Huizhu said in shock: "Junior Brother, you..."

"Don't worry!" He Pingsheng hurriedly spoke and said: "It's me, don't worry!"

"They are currently trying their best to capture me, so I have to change my image!"

"Like this, even if we encounter some inspections, we won't be afraid!"

"Hee hee hee..." Seeing Qiao Huizhu said: "This is good, I'll disguise myself too!"

Seeing Qiao Huizhu took out a Disguise Talisman and tidied up her appearance right in front of He Pingsheng.

In the time it takes to burn half an incense stick, she had changed her appearance.

It was still a female image, and it was seventy percent similar to this image of He Pingsheng.

"Look... this way, we don't have to worry about them finding us!" Seeing Qiao Huizhu said: "Let's go... let's go together!"

Thus, the two of them flew up on their swords and headed west all the way.

Not far to the west, it was the border between the Liang State and the Qi State.

Two hours later, the two of them arrived at the border!

Calling it a border, it was actually continuous mountains, and usually, no one managed this place at all.

However, after He Pingsheng and Seeing Qiao Huizhu arrived, the situation here became very complex.

Before the two of them reached the border, they were stopped by two Qi State guards wearing golden robes.

The cultivation bases of these two guards were not weak, both were Foundation Establishment Stage.

One was Foundation Establishment Stage eighth layer, one was Foundation Establishment Stage fourth layer.

"Two Senior Brothers!" He Pingsheng had turned into the appearance of a female cultivator, and his voice had also changed; he cupped his hands toward the Qi State guards and said: "My younger sister and I want to go to the Liang State, why stop us?"

That Foundation Establishment Stage eighth layer guard said: "Sorry, two Fairies, the border from our Qi State to the Liang State has already been blocked, and no disciples below the Golden Core Stage are allowed to go!"

"Please return!"

He Pingsheng's face turned black.

A light flashed in his eyes: if he slaughtered these two guys and forced his way through, what would happen?

As a result, Seeing Qiao Huizhu behind him pulled her and said: "Sister, since that's the case, let's go back!"

"Wait..." that guard shouted again: "You two, wait a moment!"

The two turned their heads.

The guard took out a jade slip, and with a bang of magic power, he blasted it into it, and instantly an image appeared in the void.

The image that appeared was of three people.

They were: He Pingsheng, Seeing Qiao Huizhu, and Qiao Xiaoqiao.

"Two of you!" that guard said: "Have you seen these three people?"

He Pingsheng's heart trembled, but his face remained as usual, and he said: "No... is the government blocking the Qi State border precisely because of these three people?"

That guard put away the jade slip, nodded and said: "Yes, these three are wanted criminals; if you encounter them, don't act rashly, tell us immediately; currently, in this Shangdang Commandery, our patrol people are everywhere!"

"If you perform a meritorious service, the imperial family will naturally have benefits for you!"

"Also!" that guard's eyes narrowed slightly, and he pointed left and right: "Don't think about looking for gaps along the border line, I can tell you, there are no gaps!"

"Every two or three li, there are two Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators guarding and patrolling!"

"Every distance, there is another Golden Core Stage!"

"Also don't think about forcing your way through!"

"Even if you can force your way through right now, a few breaths later, there will be a Golden Core Stage catching up to you!"

"At that time, I guarantee you will wish you were dead!"
