Chapter 44: The Wind in the Back Mountain
It turned out that the master also had such a gaffe, and he looked at the old man's mouth and finally shouted out two words that he had never shouted again in ten years: "Master!"
These two words not only stunned Mu Ziliang, but also stunned all the people in Nanshan Dao except for Ah Mo.
Master Guan Mo's master, isn't that the real Dao Master of Nanshan Dao, the Shiyin Master who disappeared ten years ago.
Who would have thought that the former Master of the World Hidden would come back again!
Everything in the world, like a reincarnation, and like a journey that is constantly repeated, when Guan Mo was amazing, even the master of Nanshan Dao, Shiyin, was moved by it, and accepted it as his first disciple, master and apprentice for thirty years.
Who would have thought that after ten years, Guan Mo had become a generation of masters, but many years later, Master Shiyin returned late from the red dust, but brought back a second disciple, that is, Mu Ziliang, who was only eight or nine years old.
So since Mu Ziliang entered Nanshan Road, he was accepted by Shiyin as his second disciple.
I never thought that a stinky child would become the descendant of the second generation of Nanshan Dao, and the little brother of the first generation of Guru Guan Mo!
Shiyin accepts disciples, this may be a big deal for Nanshan Dao, but it is insignificant for this world, Nanshan Dao because of the name of Guan Mo, in the years when Shiyin disappeared, it can be regarded as maintaining its status, although it is not as good as the real inheritance of the great secret method, but it is also a great door.
After all, the world is so big, and although there are many cultivators, there are very few who can cultivate as supreme masters, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is one in ten thousand.
Even so, after all, Mu Ziliang is just a child, and the days have passed so ordinarily.
Time flies like a white horse, and the time has come to the third year when Mu Ziliang entered the Nanshan Road, and the elderly Shiyin cultivated the pass, and no longer preached and taught, so Mu Ziliang followed Guan Mo.
Since then, Guan Mo has not only become his senior brother, but also half of his master.
In the past few days when he didn't see Master Shiyin again, Mu Ziliang quickly opened a new world in the Nanshan Dao, he was not a good seedling of cultivating and practicing the arts, and even the ordinary Nanshan disciples were slightly inferior to him, but he was the second-generation disciple of the Nanshan Dao, and he was on the same level as many of the elders in the sect, and even had a slightly higher status.
Because of these reasons, when I met those disciples in Tsing Yi on weekdays, I had to respectfully call him uncle, but because of this, except for Guan Mo over the years, he basically had no friends in Nanshan Dao.
Nanshan Dao is slightly different from other warlock sects, it pays more attention to the cultivation of the mind, and has been passed down for hundreds of years since the founder of Nanshan Dao, and in terms of its Taoism, it can be regarded as a place where it will last forever.
In Nanshan Road, there is a library building, on weekdays, in addition to following the senior brother Guan Mo academics, Mu Ziliang will often come here alone, although the library building is generally not open to disciples at will, but Mu Ziliang because he is a disciple of the master of the hidden Tao, his identity is special, so the elders who guard the building will not be embarrassed by him.
During the years of cultivating in Nanshan, Shiyin basically did not teach Mu Ziliang anything, and almost everything he knew came from Guan Mo.
And Guan Mo's cultivation master is very likely to be the next Dao Master, and being able to practice with him is a blessing that other Nanshan disciples can't ask for.
Since calling Guan Mo the first sentence of the senior brother, Guan Mo gave Mu Ziliang a scripture, the name is very special, called "Purple Cloud Sutra", the Purple Cloud Sutra is the Nanshan Road Handed down scriptures, the foundation of practice.
And most of the teachings of Guan Mo are also derived from this scripture.
When chanting the scriptures, Mu Ziliang often saw Senior Brother Guan Mo appear on the Nanshan Yuntai in the early morning, facing the clouds and mist.
Ke Guan Mo is a master, he is a kid who doesn't understand the art of purple clouds, so after so many years, he has not grown at all.
Not only that, but many disciples who practiced the "Purple Cloud Technique" derived from the "Purple Cloud Sutra" had already left him far away, and many people began to wonder, why did Shiyin Master Ancestor accept such a kid as an apprentice?
However, here in Mu Ziliang, he has always recognized Shiyin as his grandfather, and he has always thought so when he didn't come to Nanshan Dao before, so what is the lack of cultivation, he doesn't care anyway......
As usual, he saluted the elder who was guarding the building, pushed open the door of the library building, and Mu Ziliang entered the library building again.
There is a rule in this library, that is, the scriptures and books in it must not be taken out, even if Mu Ziliang is a disciple of the master of the world, so in order to come to the library, Mu Ziliang will walk a long way every day, from the disciple gatehouse of Nanshan Road to the mountain behind the road entrance.
When he came to the library, he quickly found a direction and walked quickly, and found an ancient book in the corner in the row of old bookshelves.
Before he came, this book was still covered with dust, and at a glance, he knew that the second book should not have been read for a long time, but Mu Ziliang was deeply attracted by him at the first sight of this book, and its name was "Strange Ambitions".
I don't know if it was the predecessor of Nanshan Dao or the teacher of which generation put together such a strange pile of books here, which recorded not a list of scriptures, nor historical truths, but a strange story that had nothing to do with each other.
Mu Ziliang, who was supposed to recite the Tao and practice, was deeply attracted when he read the first volume of this "Alien Record".
From the boy who encounters a tree spirit in the mountains, to the old man who listens to the beast song in the jungle, to the scholar who sleeps at night, this is a record of a strange world.
At a certain moment in the depths of reading, even Mu Ziliang already thought that there was another side to this world.
But back to reality, it's just some intermittent trivial stories, closing the ancient book, Mu Ziliang walked out of the library building, and saluted the dozing old man, and then left in a hurry.
Thinking that the day before, Senior Brother Guan Mo also instructed himself to go and listen to the lecture, and unconsciously stepped up his pace.
Seeing that the sky was already very dark, Mu Ziliang lowered his head and walked on the familiar path, because the library was located in a secluded place on Nanshan Road, and it didn't take long for there to be no one around.
At this time, Mu Ziliang's mind was still recalling the story in "Strange Chronicles".
After passing a mountain pass path, you can see that the Nanshan Pass can also return to your residence, but at this time, a cool breeze suddenly blew from nowhere, and there was a chill in it.
Mu Ziliang was wearing a blue dress similar to that of most of the disciples in the Nanshan Dao at this time, although he had practiced for some time since he entered the Nanshan Dao, and his body was still healthy at a young age.
But when the inadvertent night wind blew, he still couldn't help but shiver.
It seemed as if something was speeding past him.
"Who!"
Mu Ziliang turned his head suddenly, but saw that there was nothing behind him, his brows furrowed, and for some reason there was an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.
Thinking about it, in the dead of night, the disciples would never appear here, and I had been watching the "Alien Record" for a long time, and my mind was slightly in a trance.
Seeing that no one responded, Mu Ziliang shook his head again and turned around and prepared to continue walking, but as soon as he took two steps, another cold wind suddenly blew.
This time, Mu Ziliang was shocked, and turned around quickly, but found that there was still no one behind him, but it was strange that the outline of the grass and trees on the side of the road in the distance began to sway in the night.
"Who, come out!"
Mu Ziliang shouted again, and a picture suddenly flashed in his mind, which was recorded in "Strange Chronicles" about a teenager who dreamed of meeting Huaijing under the old locust tree after getting lost in the mountains late at night.
As soon as he thought of this, Mu Ziliang's heart was inexplicably a little panicked at this time, he tried to calm himself down, but the more this happened, it seemed that his heart would be more chaotic, he kept telling himself that this is Nanshan Dao, here is his senior brother Guan Mo, and his Shiyin master!
One step, two steps, Mu Ziliang, who forcibly calmed himself, turned around and began to rush forward, wanting to leave this place quickly.
Not far ahead was the Nanshan Road crossing, and he believed that once he got there, his heart would be completely calm.
"Hey, hey, hey......"
But just when Mu Ziliang's footsteps were getting faster and his heartbeat was getting faster and faster, suddenly the wind began to become more and more rapid, and there seemed to be a trace of weird laughter in it.
And when the wind behind him blew on his body, it seemed to turn into an invisible hand, gently roaming over his body.
