Back at the Tongfu Inn, Shopkeeper Wu was not waiting at the door tonight to collect the money, but Sister-in-law Niu was waiting for the two of them.

Qin Chuan asked with a smile: "Sister-in-law Niu, let's live for half a month first, and the money for this room may make a little ...... We were in Qingzhou City for a few days, but we never received the job of red and white ceremonies, so we were nervous, and asked Sister-in-law Niu to take a step back. ”

"It's not feasible. A little sister-in-law Niu is in charge of the kitchen, but at this moment, she sees her burly figure, but her head is shaking like a rattle: "Before, the shopkeeper Wu said before he went out, this room is not allowed to pay a penny, if you think that the price is too expensive, you can find another place, and never stop it." However, this Pingyang Fang, if you can find something cheaper than Tongfu Inn, then our inn doesn't need to open the door. ”

Sister-in-law Niu's voice was so loud that Qin Chuan's ears were buzzing.

Qin Chuan did ask some inns along the road before going to the Dongfu Dart Bureau, and sure enough, the room money after the autumn was more expensive than usual, and there were some shopkeepers who refused to disclose the room money, Qin Chuan knew that this kind of store must be a black store, and first deceived the guests to come over and then said, when the time comes, the price will be sky-high, if you don't give it, there must be a lot of trouble.

"What should I do, live here or live on the street?" Qin Chuan asked.

Lao Dao looked at Sister-in-law Niu and said with a smile: "It's cold weather, how can you sleep on the street?" It must be warm to sleep in the inn, not to mention that Sister-in-law Niu is here, if you are hungry in the middle of the night, you can also go to the back kitchen to play the side stove." ”

When Sister-in-law Niu heard Lao Dao's words, she was also secretly happy in her heart, and said to the two: "If you go to the side stove next time, I will send you a few dishes to try, after all, you and Guan Lang know each other, but you can't talk to others, otherwise I can't afford to send it." ”

Qin Chuan sighed and said to Lao Dao: "I bought those few catties of pork ribs on me, and I really don't have much money. This time you can only give. ”

"Okay, but you can't grab it from me after drinking. Lao Dao took out the silver money from the cloth bag and handed it to Sister-in-law Niu.

After receiving the money, Sister-in-law Niu smiled even more: "Two Taoist masters, you can go to the side stove tonight, fresh hand-cut mutton, how about I give you a plate?"

Qin Chuan was frightened by Li Canghai today, and he was already physically and mentally exhausted, so he discussed with Lao Daoyi, thanked Sister-in-law Niu for her kindness, and then the two returned to the Xuanzi room to rest as soon as possible.

After returning to the room, Qin Chuan lit the candle, took out the pot from the cloth bag, gave it to Lao Dao and said: "This is the pot made with freshly milled millet that day, when Mr. Tong Yu came to Qingzhou City, we ate a lot all the way, looking at the little left, we can eat it all tonight, and then we can only borrow Sister-in-law Niu's back kitchen to make a fire to cook." ”

Lao Dao grinned with yellow teeth, ate a few bites of the pot, took off the wine bag from his waist, threw it to Qin Chuan and said: "You have studied the "Taiping Manuscript" for a long time, and you can just take care of the food, don't worry about it." I told Li Canghai that we can condense Danhai and Empty Mountain in a month at most, and when the time comes, I will point you out one or two, and I will definitely be able to get that thing back. ”

Qin Chuan took out the "Taiping Manuscript" from his arms and spread it on the table, took a sip of wine, and ate a mouthful of pot: "What do you say is that thing?"

"Good stuff, you'll know when the time comes. It's not a problem to exchange him for a hundred altars of April green. Lao Dao put his hands in his cuffs, stared at the flickering candle flame, and after a while people began to nap.

"Baitan April Green, this is a lot of silver, it must be a valuable treasure. Qin Chuan knew that Lao Dao must have something to hide from him, after all, he was kind to a master of martial arts cultivation like Li Canghai, and that Lao Dao was definitely not just the master of the Wilderness Dao Temple. Moreover, Li Canghai said that he is a legendary person, and there are many martial arts practitioners in the world, but he does not have any empty mountains and Danhai, what is so strange about this, and when he heard what Li Canghai said, he must know something.

Qin Chuan made up his mind, since Lao Dao was unwilling to say it, then when the time came, he would go to the North Styx Mountain and ask Li Canghai.

Spread out the "Taiping Manuscript", Qin Chuan still couldn't read a word, and Qin Chuan was not in a hurry, just after drinking Sijiqing, Qin Chuan was sweating a little, so he put the robe on the chair.

At this moment, the moonlight came in through the window, and it happened to be reflected on the "Taiping Manuscript", Qin Chuan thought, since this "Taiping Manuscript" can't be understood, then I will silently recite the "Bodhicitta Sutra" a few times first, after all, I was poured into two spiritual qi by Li Canghai today, and my stomach is still a little uncomfortable.

So Qin Chuan sat on the chair, silently reciting the "Bodhicitta Sutra" in his heart, and suddenly a wind blew the "Taiping Manuscript", Qin Chuan did not notice it at first, and then the autumn wind was more urgent, and after blowing its yellowed homepage, the "Taiping Manuscript" turned faster and faster, and the sound became louder and louder, Qin Chuan silently recited the "Bodhicitta Sutra", but his eyes looked at the "Taiping Manuscript" for some reason.

It's strange to say, Qin Chuan didn't know if he was tired or drank too much, but he saw that the cursive script on the "Taiping Manuscript" began to move, and all of them floated in front of Qin Chuan and began to circle around it.

Qin Chuan was stunned for a moment, using his fingers as a pen, and began to copy the words on the cursive script, and then a warm current began to surge in his abdomen, presumably due to the effect of the two spiritual qi left by Li Canghai. It's just that for some reason, these two spiritual qi did not rampage in the abdomen, hurting Qin Chuan's internal organs.

The words on the "Taiping Manuscript" turned faster and faster, and the "Bodhicitta Sutra" that Qin Chuan silently recited became more and more urgent, and the warm current in his abdomen began to want to break out, Qin Chuan had a splitting headache, as if he was drunk, and his back began to get wet, just like when he was stubborn in the Taoist temple before.

Qin Chuan wanted to open his mouth and shout Lao Dao, but found that no matter how he opened his mouth, it was difficult to make a sound, and he could only hear the wind outside louder, blowing candlelight and swaying. At this moment, a bloated back seemed to appear in front of Qin Chuan's eyes, blurred, as if it was the Huaizhen monk.

As the figure gets closer and closer, you can see that his face is full of pathos at this moment, and he is walking barefoot through the mountains and rivers and the Gobi Desert. One step and ten miles, ten steps and one city. With each step, a lotus flower is born on the sole of your foot, and then the lotus flower disappears again.

At this moment, the picture suddenly changed, the monk Huaizhen stepped into the battlefield, only to see him reciting Buddhist words, and slowly walking through the warring ranks of the two countries with kind eyebrows, among the millions of people, they were forced to split a path, and everyone was affected by the Buddha's words, and they all laid down their weapons to stop fighting.

Monk Huaizhen's feet already had a trace of blood coming out, and the lotus flowers born on the soles of his feet also disappeared after being stained with blood. Monk Huaizhen closed his eyes and walked towards the east. After he left, the two countries began to fight again, and the battle was dark.

Monk Huaizhen walked through the swamp and crossed the mountains, his robe was already in tatters, his lips were chapped, but he refused to stop and drink, and the white bones of the forest could be seen in his bare feet, but he did not feel the slightest pain.

In front of a waterfall, after observing 3,000 flowing waters, he wrote down the word Nanwu, and then returned along the same road, and found that the place he had passed was already full of corpses.

Sighed and said the Buddha name, bowed with both hands, turned back to the temple to meditate and practice, feeling that someone was staring at him, Monk Huaizhen slowly opened his eyes and smiled at Qin Chuan.

However, when Qin Chuan saw Monk Huaizhen's gaze, he was weak at the moment, unable to move, and had no strength to close his eyes. The two spiritual qi from Li Canghai began to run around in his body, and Qin Chuan felt as if his ribs were all broken, and the pain was unbearable. After a while, my mouth was dry, my teeth were clenched, and in my daze, only the Bodhicitta Sutra sounded in my ears.

At this moment, Qingzhou City was originally the time of the full moon, but the wind and clouds changed, the aura of the four directions began to gather like water droplets, there were dark clouds in the distance covering the moonlight, and darkness suddenly shrouded Qingzhou City, and many martial arts cultivators' personal weapons were buzzing, wanting to get out of the master's control; some horses that had been quiet in the dart game began to be restless, neighing in the dark night; the autumn wind blew even more, and the wine flag outside the tavern was also rising in the wind.

Qin Chuan didn't know what was going on outside, at this moment he was in pain all over, and his seven orifices had begun to bleed, thinking that he was going to explain it today, and suddenly an old voice sounded in his ears: "It's not good, forget that today is the time to make a mistake." ”

Immediately, Lao Dao took out the talisman seal, and there were words in his mouth, and a large array of spiritual energy wrapped Qin Chuan inside.

As the old Taoist talisman surrounded Qin Chuan, the vision of heaven and earth outside began to gradually disappear, and some of the major sects thousands of miles away from Qingzhou City were also looking at this ephemeral vision at this moment, thinking that some heavenly and earthly treasure was born, and after a while, this vision disappeared, and everyone in the sect began to say: "It seems that this heavenly and earthly treasure will have to wait for the next reincarnation." ”

On top of a tall building in the capital, it was dark around at the moment, and there was a man standing in the railing looking at the starry sky, not too long, suddenly there was a hurried footsteps sound, it turned out to be a Huang Menlang next to him holding a chip and said: "The lord who just defended the city has sent news that someone has infiltrated my Long Kingdom, but don't worry, he has already left." ”

At this moment, the man found a random place to sit down, supported his forehead with his hand, thought for a while, and continued to ask: "What happened to the things you were asked to do before?"

Huang Menlang saluted and said, "Just now, the eyeliner came to report, Chen Zhenren of the Taixu Palace is still staying in the dojo, and it is Su Changxin who goes out this time." From this point of view, Chen Zhenren is still a little afraid of the adult who guards the city, otherwise the capital city would not be so peaceful. ”

"Well, what about the neighboring South Vietnam and the Northern Wilderness?

"South Vietnam has been in turmoil recently, and many cultivators have begun to gather there, and I heard that there have been visions in the surrounding 100,000 mountains recently, and even the Pavilion of No Return in the Northern Immortal Mountains has sent people, but in the end nothing has been found. The national teacher of the Northern Wilderness has not seen it for a long time, and I heard that it is Bigu cultivation, and he wants to explore that gate. As for the rest, no changes were found. Huang Menlang replied respectfully.

"Well, stand down. I'll report back when there's the latest news. The man couldn't see his expression clearly in the dark, got up and turned his back to Huang Menlang, still looking at the starry sky, and vaguely felt that he was not angry but mighty.

"The subordinates retired. Huang Menlang replied neatly, slowly retreating in the darkness.

"Li Canghai suddenly appeared in Longguo, there must be something strange about this matter, and from the stars, I saw that the star actually appeared again, and there was a vague tendency to rush, I had to guard against it. The man stared at the stars and muttered to himself.

Suddenly, there was a thick white gas rising between the heavens and the earth, and in the blink of an eye, there were no twinkling stars in the sky, and many passers-by said: "The weather in autumn can become really fast, it seems that the hoarfrost will condense tomorrow." ”

The man on top of the tall building took out the astrolabe, kept swiping his hands, and after a moment he sat down on the ground: "Could it be him? I have to find out the situation quickly, if it is really him, there is still a chance to take advantage of this pre-season. After that, the man disappeared into the tall building, leaving only the door plaque with the words "Star Picking Tower".

Chen Zhenren of the Taixu Palace, along with the two elders, also seemed to sense that there was something abnormal in the aura of this heaven and earth, but suddenly the vision disappeared.

Chen Zhenren looked at it for a while, shook his head and said, "It seems that the legend is true, that person is coming back again." But looking at it like this, he doesn't seem to be able to come back. ”

Elder You also pinched his fingers for a while, turned around and saluted Chen Zhenren and said: "For hundreds of years in the world, no one has reached that realm, and the legend is that the original national war broke the luck of martial arts cultivators, but now it seems that this calamity is also luck, if the senior brother gets this fate, it will not be a problem to step into that door." ”

"Yes, senior brother, Changxin is discussing the Dao Law in Lingxiao Palace at the moment, presumably he has also seen this vision, and has already rushed over there, if he has not yet awakened to get the fate, our Taixu Palace can be in charge of the martial arts rivers and lakes, and he will still ......be a saint when the time comes" Elder Xu didn't finish his words, and was interrupted by Chen Zhenren.

"Great rebellion!" Chen Zhenren's face was grim, and he scolded Elder Xu with righteous words: "Since the founding of our ancestor in Taixu Palace, we have not been dragged down by the name of martial arts rivers and lakes, but to solve problems for the saints, and protect the integrity of the Long Kingdom for the people, and for us martial arts cultivators, it doesn't hurt if we can't step on that door, but we can't lose our hearts." ”

Elder You and Elder Xu bowed and said, "Senior Brother has taught us that we should go back and copy the Bodhicitta Sutra a hundred times, but we can't mess up our hearts because of martial arts practice. ”

......

At this moment, the vision in Qingzhou City disappeared, and the moon also emerged from the clouds again, Lao Dao saw that the surroundings had returned to normal, removed the Fu Seal, and watched Qin Chuan lying motionless on the bed.

At this moment, Shopkeeper Wu came in out of nowhere and handed a pill to Lao Dao.

Seeing this, Lao Dao did not shirk it, and sent it into Qin Chuan's mouth, and without waiting for a while, Qin Chuan began to wake up from his confusion, but he still had a splitting headache, and he looked at the front a little blurry.

"You must have helped just now, right? Otherwise, this movement would have reached the capital. Lao Dao said to the shopkeeper Wu.

"This kind of vision, I'm afraid the people in the capital already know about it, right?"

"That's okay, I used the formation to suppress my breath before, they must not know where it is, it's just that you, not a person from the Long Kingdom, live here, aren't you afraid of chasing after you from the temple?"

Shopkeeper Wu found a chair and sat down, crossed Erlang's legs and said: "I'm afraid of death, so I'm hiding deeply, I'm the owner of an inn, and there are no aura fluctuations around, besides, I'm far away from the temple, how can anyone find out?"

"Then why don't you go back? Staying in Longguo is not your intention. Lao Dao continued to ask.

"The old country is dead, and everywhere you go is wandering. Qingzhou City is located in the middle of nowhere, and it is good for me to stay, and it is not impossible to treat it as a second hometown. I just saw a faint Buddha seal and Taoist mantra, you want this kid to condense these two things out of the empty mountain and Danhai, but you are in a hurry, and you almost let those people know. Shopkeeper Wu looked at Qin Chuan and seemed to be very sorry for his talents.

"Hehe, yes, there are only a handful of people in this world who can see my methods, and you are one of them. The old man readily admitted.

"I've been to the ghost market around Qingzhou City before, and there's something in it that can help you. If you find that thing, maybe you can condense the empty mountains and Danhai as soon as possible. Shopkeeper Wu said seriously.
