Chapter 14: The Heart Knot

Qingyun Temple is located in Qingyun Mountain, sitting north and facing south, and the back mountain is divided into east and west sides, separated by an unknown seal in the middle. The east side is full of trees, birds and animals, and it is very lively. On the west side, looking through the air, there are strange rocks and a barren area. It is said that this seal has been around for a long time, and it is said that there is a group of monsters who eat people and drink blood on the west side of Qingyun Mountain, it is said that ~

A chubby young Taoist priest, standing on one leg on a plum blossom stake, his fat body was about to fall. His face was light, his thick lips opened and closed, and he told the legend of Qingyun Mountain to the more than ten new disciples sitting around on the ground.

"Legend has it that 300 years ago, Qingyun Temple was just built, and it was just a small Taoist temple with three huts. At that time, the viewer was an old Taoist priest who had traveled for many years, with profound Taoism, slaying demons and demons, luring ghosts to cross the gods, and having the ability to escape from heaven and earth. At that time, Qingyun Mountain, jade everywhere, waterfalls and fairy caves, rare and exotic fruits, all were treasures. It is said that there is a 10,000-year-old sacred tree planted on the west side of Qingyun Mountain, the fragrance is fragrant, mortals can fly to the fairy world as long as they eat one, how many cultivators come from thousands of miles away, but go and do not return. ”

The fat Taoist priest put away his exhalation, put a trace of true qi into the dantian, shook his robe, and sat down in the air, a palm away from the stake. Everyone at the bottom praised him in unison, and he was extremely convinced of what he said.

"Alas, later, in order to achieve immortality, a powerful person invited ten enlightened people from Penglai Immortal Island with a lot of money, and they all went to Qingyun. It is said that those ten people are about to achieve positive results, and Edgeworth can take the head of a person when he flies thousands of miles away. I thought that this time I would be able to see the grace of the sacred tree, but unexpectedly, ah"

The people who were listening attentively to the story were so frightened by a scream that they all shuddered, and when they looked at it, the calm fat Taoist priest on the plum blossom pile was crying to the ground at the moment.

"You fat third child, every time you are in addition to eating or blowing, how long have you been in the audience, you can only hold up a palm's distance, and you are embarrassed to show off here."

Everyone looked at each other, and saw a sturdy young man in a Taoist uniform, with a long body and a handsome appearance, standing up in unison, bowing his head and saluting, "Second senior brother, supreme longevity!" ”

This person is the chief disciple of the Guan Lord, and his name is Yu Qingyang. As for why he is called the second senior brother instead of the senior brother, it is because there is also a senior brother of Maoqing in this Qingyun Temple.

And the fat third man who fell to the ground, named Li Jiang, entered the audience two years later than Yu Qingyang. Yu Qingyang is a strict person, one board and one eye, and he is even more strict with his junior brothers, in Qingyun Guan, it is not the master who disciplines and restricts the disciples, but these two senior brothers.

Li Jiang saw the person coming clearly, his fat face was smiling, he got up and patted the dust on his buttocks and said with a smile, "Second Senior Brother, don't make fun of me, you also know that I don't force the path of cultivation, I was born in the world, and pleasure is the mainstay, how can I live up to this great time because of unpredictable things?" ”

Yu Qingyang snorted, raised his eyebrows and said, "Why don't you dare to say this to Senior Brother?" ”

When Li Jiang heard this, he looked behind Yu Qingyang in a panic, then wiped his forehead and said, "Second Senior Brother Hugh wants to scare me, I thought Senior Brother is back!" ”

"As you said, Senior Brother Yunyou is back!" Yu Qingyang rarely showed joy on his face.

"W-What?" Li Jiang was shocked, and regardless of the wolf bèi just now, he hurriedly flew to the plum blossom pile, tightened his abdomen and lifted his breath, and forced his fat body to rise by half a palm.

Yu Qingyang waited for him to stabilize his figure, and said lightly, "You don't have to pretend, senior brother accompanied the master to the back mountain, presumably he won't be able to come back for a while!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Li Jiang's true qi in his stomach was slightly relaxed, and he landed again. The onlookers couldn't help but cover their mouths and snicker, Li Jiang didn't think so, got up and patted his robe, pointed at everyone with a stern face and said, "If you laugh enough, go and meditate, if the senior brother comes back and sees you so lazy, be careful of peeling and cramping!" ”

Everyone saw that the second senior brother, who had always been gentle and casual, was so afraid of him, presumably that senior brother must be a blue-faced fanged and violent temperament. Hurriedly took the futon and put it on the practice ground, meditated and practiced in a regular manner, and did not dare to make a sound again.

Mao Qing walked to the back mountain, looking at the scenery of hell on one side of the world, slightly stunned. Suddenly, the true qi in his chest was surging around, his body staggered, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, staining his robes red. The old Taoist who followed behind him was thinking about how to report the recent progress of his cultivation to his senior brother. Hearing the voice, he looked up in surprise, and instantly frightened the seven souls and lost three souls, hurriedly held on, and asked quickly, "Why are you so strict this time?" ”

Mao Qing waved his hand slightly, his sleeves were lightly raised, and he saw a circular black hole protruding from the chaotic stones, gradually expanding, and finally forming a circular arch, followed by a stone path, extending alone, as if leading to the end of the world.

Haoqing was the first to step in, and Lao Dao hurriedly followed, and after the two entered, the arch disappeared, leaving only a pool of blood on the ground.

"Senior brother, it's not a way to go on like this, even if you are a half-immortal body, you can't survive the wear and tear twice a year! I'm worried that Ayin is fine, but in the end, your essence will be exhausted! Ji Shan's face was anxious, and he helped Haoqing to sit on a stone bench.

Mao Qing shook his head, his eyes looked at the boundless barrenness, his heart was sad, and he said lightly, "I promised her mother that she would be a human being for the rest of her life, and she would never be controlled by animal nature, nor bound by hatred!" Breaking one's word is never a gentleman, how can it be worthy of the morality in my heart! ”

Ji Shan's face was embarrassed, "Senior brother, after so many years, why can't you let it go!" Abandoning the mortal dust and ascending to the immortal realm, wouldn't it be at ease, why suffer from the mortal dust! ”

Mao Qing didn't speak, his slender fingers gently touched the rock beside him, and his eyes were cold and lonely. After a long time, he said slowly, "Senior brother, why did you ascend to the Immortal Realm?" ”

"Naturally, it is to break free from birth, old age, sickness and death, the troubles of the world, and get away with it for eternity!"

Mao Qing shook his head, "There is an obsession in my heart, even if it is eternal, how can I feel at ease?" ”

Ji Shan was dumbfounded, and when it came to cultivation, he sent this senior brother thousands of miles. Then he sat aside with some bitterness, pondered for a moment, and said, "The spirit fruit is a sacred relic of the wolf clan, and it is only ten of them every six months, and it is enshrined on the altar of the wolf clan, in order to suppress the demonic energy of the wolf clan and avoid the inspection of the heavenly court. Since the fox clan was wiped out, all races have been uneasy, although the surface is calm, but the inside is affected by the whole body. Spirit fruits are frequently lost, and I'm afraid that one day it will cause war! ”

Mao Qing sighed, "The spirit fruit is just to cover up the demonic nature for them, and I spent a lot of cultivation to set up a seal for it, and the effect of this spirit fruit is the same." I don't think there will be anything wrong cuò, Ayin is different, if there is no spirit fruit, I'm afraid~"

Ji Shan knew it, nodded and stopped persuading.

Mao Qing asked again, "Ayin has been a little irritable lately, what's the matter?" ”

Ji Shan was immediately alert, his eyes turned around, and he said, "Senior brother, you also know that although the spirit fruit can suppress the beast nature on Ayin's body, it always makes it infinitely powerful, and it seems that there is endless energy in the body. If I don't release it, I'm afraid that I will hurt myself, so I arranged some more chores for her to vent her body. ”

Hao Qing nodded, Ji Shan exhaled lightly, and before he could catch his breath, he heard the other party ask again, "Along the way, I heard that the elixir of resurrection has been refined in Guanzhong?" I don't know~"
