Repeated, kept repeating, the same action, Chu Qiankun repeated it no less than eight times, plus the first one was nine times.

Incense, touch the tree, go around in circles, and look.

However, he was still confused, and he still had no clue.

On the contrary, the old men who were playing chess on the side stopped playing, and there was a lot of discussion about his pious movements.

"This kid, at a young age, worships God with such a heart, how many times has this been, and the divine tree will definitely bless him. ”

"I guess I encountered something difficult, otherwise I wouldn't have worshiped so hard. Anyway, the Divine Tree is still very spiritual, and it should be able to help him. ”

Again, the tenth time, and the last time Chu Qiankun can accept, if you can't observe and experience anything this time, then you can only give up.

can only prove that he has no relationship with what Gou Xiuquan left behind, or he has no chance for the time being.

Chu Qiankun was very unwilling in his heart, knowing that it might be useless work done in vain, but he still did it more carefully than any time, and his movements were deliberately slowed down a lot.

Walking slowly, touching slowly, turning slowly, looking up slowly.

Chu Qiankun took the army today, set off from the northern capital, went to Dongzhou for dinner, and entered Wuhai Village at about three o'clock in the afternoon, and then it was a repeated worship of the sacred tree.

The time had come to five o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was setting, and a soft orange light shone on the hill opposite the village, on a house halfway up the mountain.

At this moment, Chu Qiankun was fascinated, and after a long time, he smiled happily.

Then, he walked towards the chess master on the side: "Uncle, what kind of house is on that mountain?"

"Oh, that's the Heavenly Star View, the Three Qing Dao Ancestors enshrined in the View. However, young man, you listen to the uncle's advice, although the Heavenly Star View also has a history of hundreds of years, it really does not have the magic of these three divine trees. What difficulties are you encountering at home, don't worry, you are so pious today, the sacred tree will definitely bless you, you don't have to go to the Tianxingguan, few people in our village go to worship. ”

The old man is a very enthusiastic person, and as soon as he started talking about it, he almost couldn't stop, and he was talking about it from the heart.

Chu Qiankun was stunned, the number of worships just now was a bit much, and they were all looked at by these old people, and it was obvious that he had misunderstood him.

However, this misunderstanding is not bad, at least it can help him get through the strange behavior.

As soon as he spoke, Chu Qiankun said with a bitter look on his face: "Since this Taoist temple has been around for hundreds of years, why should I go and worship it." Can you tell me how to get up, uncle. ”

Chu Qiankun's insistence made the old man sigh for a while: "Hey, you walk back to the village entrance from here, along the side of the mountain, there is a stone step, you can go up from there." ”

"Thank you, uncle. Chu Qiankun said, bought a pack of the best cigarettes from the commissary, and handed it to the other party, which was not only a repeated thanks, but also a thank you for guiding the way.

After the figures of Chu Qiankun and Junzi disappeared into the corners of the houses and the end of the path, several other little old men surrounded them and began to divide their cigarettes.

Then they continued their great chess career, and of course, the verbal discussion of Chu Qiankun did not stop at all.

The stone steps are very narrow and steep, Chu Qiankun and Junzi are both people with excellent physique, and after climbing for about fifteen minutes, they arrived at the platform of the Taoist temple.

Looking back at the bottom of the mountain, the village has an unobstructed view, and the three large camphor trees are even more impressive, and the huge canopy of the trees does not seem to shrink much because of this distance.

If someone stood here and watched, Chu Qiankun's previous actions would also be fully included in his eyes.

The Taoist temple is very dilapidated, the outer wall is already mottled, and the incense is even more scarce, except for Chu Qiankun and the two, there is no third party in sight.

The area of the whole Taoist temple is not large, there are only one main and two auxiliary three houses, and the main hall of the main house, as the old man said, enshrines the three Qing Taoist ancestors.

It's just that this ancestor looks very desolate, his body is also dilapidated, and there are many potholes, and there are only three sandalwood sticks and a few wisps of green smoke in the incense burner, which is deserted.

Seeing such a scene, Chu Qiankun finally realized the sincerity and intentions of the old man's persuasion.

Indeed, judging from this aspect, the spiritual soul of this Dao Ancestor will definitely not come, and if the Dao Ancestor does not manifest his spirit, it will naturally not work.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the layman is here. ”

Chu Qiankun was still lamenting the misery of the Dao Ancestor statue, and a clear voice came from behind him.

An old Taoist wearing a purple yang scarf and gossip clothes, holding a dust, stood behind Chu Qiankun.

His face was ruddy, and a wisp of mountain wind blew, blowing his robe and long beard, which was quite elegant.

Chu Qiankun's eyes lit up, he couldn't imagine that there was such a Taoist priest with immortal wind and bones in this dilapidated Taoist temple, this contrast was really a bit big.

Chu Qiankun didn't understand the etiquette of Taoism, so he learned what he looked like on TV, and shouted with his hands: "Daoist." ”

"Come with me, layman. The old Taoist priest didn't care about Chu Qiankun's salute at all, greeted him, turned around and walked out directly.

Chu Qiankun glanced at Junzi in a daze, and saw that the back of the Taoist priest had disappeared, so he hurriedly chased him out.

Fortunately, the place is not big, and the old Taoist priest only entered a house next to it, and after entering the house, he found that this was the living room of the old Taoist priest.

Chu Qiankun and Junzi stood at the door, did not directly follow into the room, and maintained basic etiquette.

The old Taoist priest never looked back at the two of them, walked to a cabinet door by himself, and took out a silver-white lockbox after opening it.

Such a modern thing, appearing in such an antique room, is instantly abrupt.

The box seemed to be a little heavy, and the old Taoist priest's right shoulder carrying the box sank obviously, but the pace was still light.

After coming to the door, he did not hand over the box to Chu Qiankun, but stepped out of the threshold, came to the stone table under a pine tree, and put the box on it.

The old Taoist priest didn't speak, Chu Qiankun didn't speak, Chu Qiankun looked at the box, the old Taoist stared at Chu Qiankun, and the military stared at the old Taoist.

The air was suddenly quiet!

It wasn't until a wild bird that flew from nowhere suddenly flew over the heads of the three of them, bringing a gust of fresh wind, that the silence was broken.

Chu Qiankun retracted his eyes from the box, smiled at the old Taoist priest and said, "Daoist, I don't know what this means?"

"Didn't you come to pick up the box? ”

In addition to the box on the table, there was also a tea set, and after the old Taoist priest sat down, he poured himself a small cup.

As for the so-called greeting guests, pouring tea for guests, there is no such thing.

Chu Qiankun frowned: "Why do you say that I am here to pick up the box? ”

Entering the Taoist temple from the mountain, except for greeting, Chu Qiankun did not say a single extra word, let alone say that he was here to find something.

The old Taoist priest behaved like this, but in fact, he was also very confused, and he didn't know whether this box was left by Gou Xiuquan.

"Lao Dao is more than 70 years old this year, although he is old and dizzy, but there is no mistake. The old Taoist priest touched his beard, drank tea, and said lightly but surely.

"Dao Chang is seventy, I really can't see that you are in good health. ”

Walking out of the old road carrying the box lightly, Chu Qiankun felt that he was not simple, and he should have been practiced.

"The physique of the two is not bad, you must persevere, don't give up easily. Lao Dao glanced at Chu Qiankun and focused on Junzi for a while.

The eyes are also very vicious, and it can be seen at a glance that the physique of the two is good, and the strong muscles hidden under the clothes of the military son obviously did not escape his eyes.

"Is the Taoist temple alone?" Chu Qiankun asked curiously, for so long, he didn't see a second Taoist priest.

"Lao Dao is in good health, and he is not in a hurry to find an apprentice. The old Taoist priest replied to the question, and said lightly: "The thing has been given to you, open it yourself and take a look." ”

"Daoist, are you really sure this thing is mine? Remember correctly, this is the first time I've been here with you. Chu Qiankun asked rhetorically again.

It's not that he hesitates, it's not that he twists, it's that there are unavoidable difficulties.

"You're here for the first time, and I know you didn't put this thing here, but I'm sure it's yours. ”

The cultivation of the old Taoist priest is indeed good, Chu Qiankun is so twisted, and he has repeatedly questioned it, he is all a kind explanation.

"Okay, even if this box is mine, may I ask, do you know the password?" Chu Qiankun said helplessly.

If he knew the password, he would have left with the box, how could there be so much nonsense.

"Hehe, the layman doesn't have a password, how can Lao Dao have it?"

Lao Dao touched his beard, that smile was like a spring breeze, and he didn't have a password for Chu Qiankun, and he didn't care about it.

Chu Qiankun pulled the lockbox in front of him, and his hands felt very heavy: "Does the Dao Chief know what is in here?"

"I don't have a password, I can't open it, I've never seen it, I don't know. The old Taoist priest glanced at Chu Qiankun, who was randomly fiddling with the password there.

"Didn't the person who left it tell you what it was?"

Chu Qiankun said in his heart, he didn't know what it was, so he kept it like this, and the old man's heart was also big.

"Nope. The old Taoist priest shook his head: "Since you came to get the things back, it means that the bloody disaster of Gou Jushi has been fulfilled." ””

Chu Qiankun's eyes shrank, the old Taoist priest actually knew that Gou Xiuquan had a bloody disaster, and said that it had been fulfilled, is there such a god?

"Did the Dao Master calculate it? Did you teach him how to crack it?" Chu Qiankun retracted the shock in his eyes and asked pretendedly.

"There is a way to crack it, but he will definitely give up halfway. This bloody disaster was fate, and he couldn't escape. Moreover, if Lao Dao is not mistaken, the reason why that Gou Jushi wants you to come to get the box back is because he can't come himself. ”

The words of the old Taoist priest shocked Chu Qiankun again, although the words were vague, the meaning was very clear, Gou Xiuquan's bloodlight disaster was a death disaster.

"The Taoist chief's eyes are like torches, and if he is clear, the boy admires. Chu Qiankun sighed sincerely.

"Take the box, put it here in Lao Dao, for Lao Dao, it is also pressure. The old Taoist priest suddenly said with relief: "But before you go, the old Taoist has a word of advice." ”

"Chief, please speak, boy, listen to me. Chu Qiankun said respectfully, and there was even a parting message.

The old Taoist priest stood up and looked into the distance, which happened to be the direction of the three camphor trees: "Although the old Taoist doesn't know what is in the box, there is one thing in it, which is very ominous. It is better for the layman to deal with it as soon as possible, as for how to deal with it, with the wisdom of the layman, there should be a way. ”

"Thank you for the kind advice of the Taoist, the boy will definitely take it to heart. I took my leave. ”

After Chu Qiankun finished speaking, he picked up the box and prepared to leave, and it was a little heavier than he expected.

However, before he could get a good feel for the weight of the box, Junzi had already taken the box away.

Exception with ease!

Saying goodbye to the old Taoist priest again, the two of them walked out of the Taoist temple in a box.

PS: At the beginning of the month, as usual, all kinds of requests!
