Li Ximu was silent for a long time and didn't speak, obviously she didn't have the heart to recuperate now. Luo Dan was not in a hurry, just stood there and stared at her, and finally Li Ximu couldn't stand such oppression, and bowed his head and responded: "Everything is subject to Master's arrangement." ”

Seeing her agree, Luo Dan turned around and went out, closing the door by the way.

Ziyun Mountain is located in the southeast of Zizhu Country, the fog is shrouded in a fairy mountain style all the year round, there is a Ziyun Temple on Ziyun Mountain, the Luodan of Ziyun Mountain is also famous all over the country, there are not a few people who want to worship under her door, Ziyunguan is quite idle on weekdays, and it is full of people on the festival day, shoulder to shoulder.

When her mother saw the pear blossom on her shoulder, she knew in her heart that this daughter's life was destined to be extraordinary, and after her father abandoned their mother and daughter, her mother took her to Ziyun Mountain to count a hexagram, and she wanted to ask for a peace charm for her, but who knew that the Luodan Fairy Gu of Ziyun Mountain wanted to accept her as an apprentice. Of course, the mother was happy, and hurriedly agreed, thinking that she would be separated from her for a long time after that, but who knew that the master of Ziyun Mountain actually said empathetically that this apprentice did not need to stay on Ziyun Mountain all the time, just went up the mountain to live for a month every year, and if there was anything that needed to be taught on weekdays, she would naturally go down the mountain to find her.

Mother was naturally happy, and gave a big gift to Master Luodan, when she was young, she didn't know this, but later the master said that she could hear it.

Later, when she grew up and became more sensible, she knew that the master was an immortal of Ziyun Mountain, so she begged the master to teach her spells, but the master always shook her head and said that the time had not come, but the market told her some major events today, and she naturally didn't like to hear about them. But my mother was very happy, and when she saw that her mother was happy, she gradually became patient to learn.

Master didn't care about her. She was also happy, but as she grew older, what Master said most often was her appearance, which was natural, and she couldn't change it, so Master asked her to dress up as a man when she went out in the past, and she was a woman. Naturally, I also want to wear it glamorously, especially in front of the person I like.

Unexpectedly, she didn't listen to Master's words for a while. She got into such trouble, and as Master said, her appearance was a disaster.

When she was a child, she didn't understand most of them, but now she finally knows.

Ziyun Mountain is not very high. But it is surrounded by a thick layer of white fog all year round. It looks extraordinarily immortal, the Purple Cloud View is located at the top, if you don't go up the mountain, you can't see it at the foot of the mountain. There are very few disciples in Ziyunguan, Master Luodan took her with a total of four disciples, and on weekdays, the big and small things in Liguan are taken care of by the other three senior brothers and sisters, originally she was also willing to do this, but the master didn't know whether to pity her young age or what. Never let her do those things.

In the past, the other three senior brothers and sisters still had opinions on this, but the majesty of the master was there. No matter how dissatisfied they were, they wouldn't say anything, so in private, her relationship with the three brothers and sisters with the same name was not very good.

But over the years, in addition to her, the three senior brothers and sisters have already gone to the rivers and lakes by themselves, I heard that they are all doing well, and one of them even sat on the position of a national teacher, and I don't envy these Li Ximu's hearts, but I feel that I have been apprenticed for so many years, except for the knowledge obtained by those pens, I have not learned any other skills, and it is inevitable that I have some regrets.

Master Luo Dan knew her regrets, but never taught her anything else, what other skills she would naturally do in the future, these knowledge and her benefited a lot, Master said this, she could only listen to this silently, but then Master She was determined to travel the world, without Master's advice, she was even alienated from those knowledge.

The day passed like this, and on the second day, when the sun had just risen, Master stood outside the door and knocked lightly: "Pear, are you up?"

Li Ximu and Yi sat up, tidied up a little, got up and went to open the door: "What did the master call me?" ”

Luo Dan stood outside the door, still wearing a green shirt, with a layer of transparent gauze on the outside, his white hair was tied up high, with a trace of ethereal temperament, and when he saw Li Ximu coming out, he took the lead in turning around and leading the way in front: "You come with me." ”

Li Ximu was stunned for a moment, then quickly closed the door and walked in the direction of the master.

As a disciple of Luo Dande, Li Ximu has never lived in the Purple Cloud Temple for more than ten years, nor has he visited this place well, so this time he walked through most of the Purple Cloud Temple with the master, only to find that this place was so big.

Luo Dan knows that her temperament has always been the most well-behaved among the disciples, and her qualifications are extraordinary, if it weren't for her special identity, she actually intended to let her take over her mantle.

After passing through the corridors and bypassing a courtyard, Luo Dan did not stop at a water curtain cave behind the Ziyun Temple, Luo Dan directly raised his hand and waved, and the powerful aura directly opened the water curtain and went straight in. Seeing this, Li Ximu's face was full of differences, and he didn't ask yet, but he found that the master's figure had long disappeared around the corner, and Li Ximu hurriedly followed.

As soon as she stepped in, Li Ximu felt the aura rushing to her face, and at the moment she felt a screen in her heart, she never knew that Ziyunguan would have such a blessed place with a compelling aura, she had never heard the master mention these for so many years, why did she bring her here today?

"Pear, hurry up." Just as she was thinking about this, Master's voice came slowly, and Li Ximu hurriedly quickened her pace.

Only turn a corner and see a stone room, the stone room is very empty, only in the southwest position is a purple-gold stone seat, the appearance of the stone seat is really strange, it is located in a blue pool, faintly revealing dark light.

Luo Dan stood in the stone room, and when he saw her coming, he immediately beckoned her to come forward: "Pear." ”

Li Ximu stepped forward obediently, with these thousands of questions in her heart, but she opened her mouth and swallowed.

"Pear, do you see the stone seat there?" Luo Dan pointed to the stone seat and asked Li Ximu.

Li Ximu nodded when she heard this, looked at the master suspiciously, and waited for what she was going to say next.

"That's the Purple Cloud Immortal Seat, the treasure of our Purple Cloud Temple, which I accidentally obtained many years ago when I was a teacher and had not yet founded the Purple Cloud Temple." Luo Dan didn't say that this magic weapon was given by the gods: "Li'er, I have been teaching you any magic for so many years. It's because the teacher has a set of immortal methods here to pass on to you. ”

Li Ximu was puzzled, since she wanted to teach her the immortal method, why did she wait until today?

Luo Dan had long expected her incomprehension. directly took her hand and came to stand in front of the Purple Cloud Constellation, and explained: "This Purple Cloud Immortal Constellation has a magical skill, that is, it can enhance people's aura. To be a teacher to teach you the immortal method needs this kind of aura, but this aura is not available to everyone, the recipient must not have any mana and martial arts, and is a woman over the age of sixteen, I say this, do you understand? ”

Hearing this, Li Ximu curiously went to see the purple cloud immortal constellation. The faintly flowing luster seemed to have spirituality, and Li Ximu's heart was boiling.

"From this day on, you will be cultivating in this cave. Just sit on this constellation of purple mastonia. Luo Dan took out a yellowed old book from his sleeve and handed it to Li Ximu.

Li Ximu stretched out his hand to take it, flipped through it casually, and found that it was all some formulas and other things. Puzzled, he looked at Luo Dan: "Master." This is? ”

The expression on Luo Dan's face was solemn: "This is the mantra and recipe of this Purple Cloud Immortal, you have pondered it carefully during this time, and I hope you can achieve something after March." ”

"Three months? I'm going to be here for three months? Li Ximu suddenly became excited when he heard this, he escaped this time to find a way to save his mother, and the master now let himself practice in this cave for three months, what should he do about saving his mother!

Luo Dan knew what she was going to say, and directly dispelled her concerns: "You don't have to worry about your mother's affairs, everything is a promising teacher." After March, when you come out of the hole. For the teacher, I will bring your mother to you alive. ”

Master's words were said neatly, and Li Ximu respected Master very much, so she believed what Master said, so she nodded with peace of mind.

Seeing that she was obedient, Luo Dan also nodded and said "You cultivate well", and then walked out of the Water Curtain Cave.

***

The road at the foot of Echo Mountain is the most gloomy path in Chunyang Village, and every night falls, there will be gusts of wind on the path, and the turbid moonlight will fill down like a miasma, floating in the secluded bushes, and occasionally a black crow bird will fly over the bushes, and there will be a long-lasting sound from the depths of the woods.

The people of the village said that in the early years of this road, I don't know how many people died, and the ghosts of those people lost their way in the bushes and could not get out again, and would come out every night to chase after passers-by, and take pleasure in this until they were scared half to death.

Su Jin and Su Xiu, brother and sister, have been walking this road for three years, and every day after dark, they have to pass this road to Lin Bo's house at the foot of the mountain, where they copy books to earn money. After three years of walking, the brother and sister have never encountered any ghosts.

When she first walked this road, her sister Su Xiu was very scared, and every time she set foot on this dark road, Su Xiu had to firmly grasp her brother Su Jin's hand. Su Jin was born bold, and never believed the rumors about ghosts in the village, so he took his sister's hand and walked on the road, turned back to his sister and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here." ”

Su Xiu looked at her brother with wide eyes, nodded meekly, and said, "Brother, don't let go." ”

After a long time, Su Xiu herself was not afraid, and when Su Jin took her hand, she broke free first, and said: "I went by myself, and after walking for more than a year, there is nothing to be afraid of." ”

Su Jin knew that his sister was stubborn, smiled at Su Xiu, and said, "If you ask me to pull it in the future, I won't pull it." ”

Su Xiu understands that her brother is just scaring her for a while, since she was a child, her brother has always taken care of herself, and the meaning of this care is above all else, it can be said that Su Xiu is both an elder brother and a father. In the village, the friendship between Su Jin and Su Xiu, the two orphans, is unknown to anyone. If Su Xiu is a flowing river, then Su Jin is the riverbed of this river, carrying endless water and letting it flow happily.

In the past three years, Su Jin and Su Xiu have been walking this path to Lin Bo's house at the bottom of the mountain to copy books. Limber was the person with the largest collection of books in the village, and was withdrawn by nature, living alone when he was old, and rarely interacting with people. Su Jin and Su Xiu were both teenagers and wanted to learn something, Su Jin's first thought was Lin Bo, so he took his sister to Lin Bo's house and begged Lin Bo to give them some books.

That day, Limber sat in front of his bookcase, looked at the brother and sister, and said, "I have these books with me all my life, and if I don't die, these books can't leave me, and if you want to read books, you can come and help me copy them, and I can give you some money." ”

The brother and sister readily agreed to Limber, and this time, the gloomy path of the bush will take three years.

Three years later, on this day, Limber had an accident.

That night, Su Jin and Su Xiu came to Lin Bo's door, knocked on the door, and found that no one in the house responded, the two waited for a long time, Su Jin felt that something was wrong, and took his sister to knock open the door, and found that Lin Bo had fainted in the house, Su Jin shouted to his sister: "Quickly help Lin Bo up!" ”

When Su Xiu helped Lin Bo up, he saw a large piece of blue-black bruises winding on Lin Bo's arm, and he was so frightened that he shouted: "Brother, look, look here, what's wrong with Lin Bo?" ”

Su Jin's gaze fell on Lin Bo's arm, and he was also frightened, those bruises were very deep, like poisonous sores covering Lin Bo's skin. Su Jin had never seen such bruises, and hurriedly said to Su Xiu: "Let's take Lin Bo to Mr. Liang's house, he has excellent medical skills, and he will definitely be able to cure Lin Bo." ”

Su Xiu carried a paper lantern to look at the road in front, Su Jin carried Lin Bo on his back, and when the brother and sister took Lin Bo to Mr. Liang's house in the village, Mr. Liang was about to close the door, and when he saw Su Jin and Su Xiu carrying Lin Bo in, he immediately asked, "What's wrong with Lin Bo?" ”

Su Jin shook his head and glanced at Lin Bo's arm, "Look at his arm." ”

Mr. Liang walked over and took a closer look at Lin Bo's arm, and said to Su Jin and Su Xiu, the two siblings, "You help me carry Lin Bo into the house and let him lie on the bed." ”

Mr. Liang unbuttoned the clothes on Lin Bo's upper body, Su Jin and Su Xiu were shocked, and there was a big blue-black bruise on Lin Bo's chest. Su Jin asked, "How can this be?" Was it someone who injured you? ”

Mr. Liang frowned and said, "It's not an injury, it's more serious than a injury." ”

"What is that?" Su Xiu asked.

"It's corpse poison."

"What corpse poison?" Neither brother nor sister understood.

It is a strong poison produced by the corpse in the process of decay, and once it is infected, the consequences are unimaginable. ”

"How could Limber be infected with corpse poison?" Su Jin looked at Mr. Liang suspiciously.

Mr. Liang shook his head, "Generally speaking, only people who have been exposed to corpse poison will be infected, but there is also a second possibility, that is, infection, such as saliva, blood, and sometimes, being bitten by a person with corpse poison will also be infected with corpse poison."

In addition, corpse poison also shows a strong latent nature, depending on each person's physical condition, some such bruises appear in a day or two, and some take a month or two, so I can't tell when Limber was infected with corpse poison. (To be continued.) )
