"The Taoist ......"

At this time, the middle-aged man smiled and reminded: "Now that you have come to the village, you don't need to dress like this." ○Presumably the young and old in the village, I still hope to familiarize myself with the situation as soon as possible......"

"Huh?"

Qi Xiang lowered his head and understood: "Please wait." ”

"Good, good."

The middle-aged man hurriedly smiled and said, "You're busy, I'll sit for a while." ”

The middle-aged man was waiting on the first floor, and Qi Xiang turned around and went to the bedroom on the second floor. In the bedroom, his duffel bag, along with the green cloth bag, was on the table.

Qi Xiang opened the bag and took out a set of clean clothes inside. Unfold the clothes, and it is a set of unpretentious robes. He put on the robe, and it felt quite fit, not too big or small, very moderate.

Change into a robe, put on a crown hat, and then put on a pair of cloth shoes. Although there is no mirror, Qi Xiang feels good about himself. It's just empty-handed, a little uncomfortable.

He turned his gaze, and among the bits and pieces of baggage, he took a bracelet and a talisman.

One on each hand, and you're done.

Qi Xiang waved his hand, walked down slowly, came to the hall, and greeted: "Village chief, it's okay!" ”

The village chief looked up and his eyes lit up, and then quipped: "Dao chief, you are a monk...... It's a waste. ”

"Really?" Qi Xiang smiled: "I can return the vulgar ......"

"Uh...... Hehe, hehe. ”

At this moment, it was the turn of the village chief to laugh dryly, and then immediately changed the topic: "Dao Chief, are you used to it here?" If there's anything that needs to be replaced, just ask, don't be polite to us. ”

"I don't need it for the time being, but I need to talk about it when I need to."

The two chatted as they walked to the village.

At this time, piles of bonfires were placed on the open flat in the village. Some bonfires. It's just a simple illumination. Some bonfires are set up with large sticks and barbecue pieces of wild boar.

Hundreds of villagers, men and women, old and young, gathered together. Tables, chairs and benches were brought from home, and they sat together in twos and threes, chatting and chatting, which was very lively.

Qi Xiang wearing Taoist robes appeared, and the villagers were enthusiastic. Immediately rose by more than a dozen points.

A group of people gathered around, toasted again, and served barbecued pork.

The wine is rice wine brewed from mountain springs, and the degree is not very high, and it is even a little cloudy. But the taste is good, with a slight soft sweetness, and it has the effect of health preservation.

Actually, it's good to be a Taoist. Except for some special meats, which require fasting. Stuff in general. There is no need to avoid eating. Whether it's wine or meat, there's no need to be particularly shy about it.

Therefore, Qi Xiang naturally took the wine. And meat.

"Thank you all for your hospitality."

Qi Xiang raised his glass and said: "In the next few days, it is estimated that I will trouble everyone, please take care of me." ”

"I should ask the Taoist chief to take care of ......," the village chief said with a smile, "You are very happy to be here." Nothing more. It's all in the wine, cheers! ”

It's really a toast, and some even hold the bowl directly. Gulp down. The aroma of the wine is intense, and it spreads in the air, turning into a warm atmosphere.

Then, some people sang and danced, some people howled with joy and let loose the wreckage.

Qi Xiang is very restrained, or no one dares to embarrass him, a monk, for wine and meat, he does not refuse, but he also tastes it lightly.

When the feast was almost over, he gave the beaded amulets in his hand to the eldest old man and grandmother present, and then he retired.

"Dao Chief, we'll send you."

There are people who are enthusiastic and want to help guide the way.

"No need."

Qi Xiang waved his hand, his pace was very brisk, and he disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.

He went up the mountain to reach the Taoist temple. At the top of the mountain, the grass is deep. Standing in the middle of it, the lively sound under the mountain is immediately blocked outside, and the environment is quiet and quiet.

At this time, the moonlight was beautiful, and a round of clear light floated above the spire. Qi Xiang entered the Taoist temple, went up to the top three floors of the tower, looked up, only to see the bright moonlight sprinkled down, the sky was lonely, the wind blew the shadows of the trees, a little lonely and cool.

"Wait, something doesn't seem right."

After looking at it for a moment, Qi Xiang's eyes froze, his heart trembled, and he suddenly discovered a strange situation.

"Is there no shadow of this tower?"

Qi Xiang looked left and right, and was surprised to find that the entire tower seemed to have no tower shadow.

If the moonlight is now hanging in the middle of the sky, the shadow of the tower condenses into a point, and there is no shadow, so that's it. But now, the moon is shining obliquely, and the trees next to the tower, including the mountain peaks, are obliquely reflected.

But it's this tower, it's the shadow at all.

"No, it's definitely not."

Qi Xiang was shocked and suspicious, there was no one everywhere, and he immediately jumped down from the third floor. He stood by the tower and watched, and was even more surprised that the shadow of the tower was normal, and it was reflected with the trees next to it, facing the direction of the valley together.

"What's going on, I'm dazzled?"

Qi Xiang frowned, immediately jumped up, and took off to the third floor of the tower.

At this time, his heart was shocked again. He was really frightened, and in the valley from the top of the tower, there was no shadow of the tower at all.

“…… This tower seems to ...... It's strange. ”

Qi Xiang's face changed slightly, and then stabilized his mood, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "When I got up, it was a wise move to pretend to be a Taoist priest to come and stay temporarily." ”

If it weren't for his whim, I'm afraid he would have missed an opportunity.

That's right, it's chance.

Although he still doesn't know what the mystery of this tower is. But what you don't know is chance.

Of course, there are good and bad chances, or they are ordinary. However, for Qi Xiang, as long as it is a chance, it means the accumulation of experience, and there are only benefits, not harms.

All in all, not to be missed.

Qi Xiang was moved, but he didn't rush to study, but walked up and down the tower and walked around again before returning to the bedroom. He sat cross-legged in his bedroom, slowly meditating.

"Huh?"

At this moment, Qi Xiang opened his eyes with a stunned expression: "What's the matter, the soul can't go out of the body?" ”

Qi Xiang's expression was calm, and he found that when he was meditating and cultivating, he had indeed successfully entered a state of meditation and contemplation, but his soul did not move at all.

That feeling. It was as if he had lost the ability to go out of his body. Again, he's never had the ability to do this.

Qi Xiang was a little flustered, but quickly stabilized again: "Is it the role of the tower?" The problem is, don't you feel that there is a force to suppress it? ”

However, the invisible suppression is even more terrifying.

Suddenly, Qi Xiang also felt a little pressure, and when he groaned for a while, he took advantage of the dead of night to quietly leave the tower. Ducked among the nearby bushes.

Sitting still in the bushes for a moment, he easily lost his mind.

A faint phantus, floating and moving from the air, reflected in the moonlight, between the virtual and the real. Looking down in the air from the perspective of a divine soul is another feeling. It's easy to breed one, one emotion that is under control of all beings.

However, when Qi Xiang adjusts the perspective. While looking at the tower. His mind fluttered, and he almost dissolved. This is a situation that can only happen when the shock is extreme.

You must know that Qi Xiang is now experiencing a big wave of life. has repeatedly hovered between life and death, and his psychological quality is definitely not much worse than that of Lao Jianghu.

But this time, he really lost his temper. Because he was out of his body, he looked from the air. The whole hill was empty, and there were no towers at all.

"Empty, it's empty?"

The shock in Qi Xiang's heart. It's hard to put into words. If the hill is empty and there are no towers, then what is he, who lives?

After a long sound, Qi Xiang could be regarded as calming his mind, and then his soul moved, and he descended on the mountain.

He swept his senses, moving inch by inch, but saw that the top of the hill was a lawn, green grass, full of vitality, and even small crickets and grasshoppers.

But the ancient and mottled tower, the Taoist temple of Chunyang Palace, has mysteriously disappeared.

"Why is this happening?"

Qi Xiang was surprised and curious, and wandered around the mountain for a long time, but found nothing. He didn't give up, he went directly to the belly of the mountain and inspected the entire mountain, but he didn't gain the slightest.

"It's weird."

Qi Xiang was puzzled, and after the spirit returned to his body, he immediately opened his eyes, but under the bright moonlight, the tower towered on the top of the mountain, like a cold pine and a plum, and it did not move.

At this moment, Qi Xiang didn't know what his mood was, anyway, with a sense of curiosity to explore, he strolled back to the door of the tower, starting from the door, really squatting, groping with his hands, and feeling it.

Every brick and wood of the tower is so realistic, and the texture is very real.

"Tuk, tuk!"

Qi Xiang knocked, and the echo of the bricks and wood was also not abnormal.

The eyes, the voices, the touches, the ancient smell of the bricks and woods, everything indicates that the tower is real.

At the very least, what he saw, heard, and felt was real.

But why, the spirits?

Qi Xiang is confused, his soul can't get out of the body in the tower, and the scene where the soul is out of the body outside the tower, but there is nothing, what's going on?

"It's weird, it's so mysterious......"

Qi Xiang slowly walked into the tower, and his mood gradually changed from horror and curiosity to surprise. The more mysterious something is, the more valuable it is to study.

He returned to his bedroom, and since he couldn't cultivate, he simply lay down and rested. The coming day is long, even if you study the mystery of the tower, you don't have to rush for a while.

After running around for days, he was also tired. I slept soundly until dawn before waking up.

The next morning, Qi Xiang got up, and only then did he want to go down to wash, but he was caught up in a queue outside the tower door, dozens of people, extending from the door to the outside, twisting and turning like a long dragon.

"It's ...... What's the situation? ”

Qi Xiang was stunned for a moment, a little confused.

Fortunately, at this time, the village chief came out and said with a smile: "Dao Chief, everyone is here to offer incense...... Ahem, there are other people who are not feeling well and want to ...... by the way."

People in the field, release it regularly, ask for monthly pass support. (To be continued......)
