As soon as it gets dark, the birds have already woken up.

The alternation between day and night is when the demon retreats.

Que'er got out of bed quietly and planned to leave quietly, never wanting to wake up the old woman living in the next room.

"Little girl...are you leaving?"

The old woman leaned against the door, looking at Queer's back and said.

Queer stopped when he heard this and nodded.

"Thank you, old lady, for letting me stay here last night."

After saying that, she didn't look back and planned to leave directly.

"There are two separate parts between immortals and mortals." As a cultivator of immortality, she has already understood how short the lifespan of mortals is.

Even she can't help the old woman who has run out of oil to increase her longevity.

She confirmed this last night.

As soon as the immortal power entered the old woman's body, it was like entering a bottle full of holes, and it immediately overflowed.

The old woman's oily body was unable to retain any bit of spiritual energy, let alone magical power that was purer than spiritual energy.

That's why she planned to wait for dawn to leave secretly, so that she wouldn't feel any sadness, even if it was just to deceive herself.

However, the old woman still called her to stop.

"Little girl, take this to eat on the road..."

The old woman tremblingly handed over a ball of crumpled papyrus.

Que'er hesitated for a moment, then turned her head and reached out to take it. She accidentally glanced at it and found that there were two eggs and a few white flour cakes wrapped in the papyrus.

This should be the best food in the old woman’s house.

Que'er's heart felt warm and she was about to say something, but she swallowed the words when they reached her lips.

Finally, she hugged the food wrapped in straw paper tightly in her arms, bowed to the old woman, and planned to leave directly.

The longer I live in the world of immortality, the more I understand how precious such simple feelings are.

To the old woman, Que'er is just a stranger, ragged and full of blood.

Such a suspicious passerby claimed that he was blocked by robbers and finally escaped death.

But far from feeling scared, the old woman even stayed with Queer for dinner, stayed here all night, and even gave her the best food in the house.

Que'er cannot repay this kindness.

Just after taking two steps forward, the old woman's voice came from behind again.

"Little girl, don't go to the back hill of the village. It's dangerous there. The peach blossom forest where Old Man Wang lives is about ten miles outside the village. You should be able to find it if you look carefully. If you can't find it... just use your listening device.

The sound of the wind."

"Hmm."

Although she didn't quite understand the meaning of the old woman's words, Que'er still nodded.

This time she really left.

The old woman stood in front of the door, watching Que'er's petite figure gradually go away until she disappeared.

Night and day alternate, and the sky gradually gets brighter.

…………

Que'er wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and put the food left by the old woman into her arms.

After leaving Qingshui Village, there is an empty wasteland outside.

It’s so desolate that one would think this place is isolated from the rest of the world.

However, Peach Blossom Temple, which is rumored to contain the Fountain of Youth, is hidden in this deserted land.

The distance of ten miles can be covered quickly by Que'er, but she doesn't know the specific location of Taohua Temple.

What the old woman said also made her very concerned. Not to mention the mountains behind Qingshui Village, it was naturally within ten miles outside the village.

But the old woman told her that it was very dangerous there, so Peach Blossom Temple must not be here.

In this case...

"What does it mean to listen to the sound of the wind?"

Que'er whispered.

Que'er thought about it for several times but still couldn't figure out the meaning of this sentence. She was not good at using her brain in the first place, let alone this sentence was like a riddle, how could she guess it?

"If I had known earlier, I would have asked clearly before leaving...forget it, I don't want to anymore."

Queer shook his head in despair and planned to fly to the sky to see the situation.

Although the injury still has some effects, after resting for a night, the immortal power has almost recovered, so it should not matter if you use some ordinary spells.

Arriving at an altitude of about ten feet above the ground, Que'er lowered his head and looked down, taking in an unobstructed view of the scenery on the ground.

The scattered dots in the distance are Qingshui Village, and she is now about four or five miles outside Qingshui Village.

The nearby ground is either woods or wasteland, with piles of haystacks and abandoned houses. I think it was a village before I came here.

However, I didn't see the rumored peach blossom forest. I went around in circles to look for it nearby, but it was probably the same situation.

There are many woods here, but they are not peach blossom forests, and there is no so-called peach blossom nunnery.

There are only patches of desolate scenery.

The sun gradually rose, and its dazzling light shone on Que'er, causing her to subconsciously squint her eyes.

At this time, the breeze blowing from a distance carried a melodious melody.

"This is...?"

Que'er opened her eyes wide and put her hands on her ears to listen carefully. She could indeed hear the intermittent and faint sound of playing the piano.

The sound of the piano is melodious and sounds a little sad.

Queer is very sure that this is the melody coming from five miles southeast.

But it is a wasteland there, and it is difficult to see even a weed.

Que'er believes in her eyes, but she also believes in her ears.

When there was a contrast between the information given by the two, she suddenly remembered what the old woman said before leaving.

"If you can't find it... just listen to the sound of the wind." Que'er murmured to himself, "So this is what the old lady meant."

Although she is not sure yet, Que'er's intuition tells her that the place where the sound of the piano comes from is where Peach Blossom Temple is.

Que'er lifted the air control technique and returned to the ground.

The technique of controlling the sky consumes a lot of immortal power and imposes a heavy burden on the soul. With her current injury, she won't be able to use it for long.

But this is enough, because she has found the target.

All you need to do next is get there and find a way to get the Fountain of Youth.

"In this way... the eldest lady can be saved."

As long as we complete the tasks assigned by our ancestors, the eldest lady will not be punished, and other clan members will not have any complaints.

This is the most perfect ending.

At the same time, she also believed that Uncle Liu could find the eldest lady and rescue her.

Both parties will divide the work and perform their respective duties, and they will be able to resolve the matter satisfactorily.

The bird murmured and soon walked to a place five miles southeast.

There is only a wasteland in front of you. The surface is dry and the weeds are dry. The land here has no aura at all.

The bird's nose told her so.

She couldn't smell any spiritual energy nearby, as if this place was completely isolated from the outside world.

"Will there really be a peach blossom forest here?"

Que'er touched the dry soil on the ground. Since there was no spiritual energy at all, the soil formed lumps and was crushed into pieces with a gentle press of her fingers.

This is why no plants grow nearby.

Without the nourishment of spiritual energy, not only will the earth dry up, but the plants will wither, and the entire land will be barren of grass.

This is what Que'er saw before his eyes.

She was sure that she had read it correctly, but the melody just now was also not a lie.
