A person,

Fifty years to live!

It's normal in this world. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

A person,

Seventy years to live!

It is already rare in this world.

A person,

Ninety years to live!

It may already be a legend in this world!

Life is for a person, and many people may think that the longer they live, the better!

Most people think like this, and people who don't think like that, unless they have some problems in their hearts, or they are people who are tired of life and have lost hope in life.

It is a pity that in this world, many people do not even live to be fifty years old, let alone seventy years old or longer.

People who live a short life, such people naturally have noble status, and there will also be some poor status. Life is very fair, but it seems to be very helpless, and it is difficult to change the vicissitudes of life.

In the face of this kind of helplessness in life, people will naturally try all kinds of ways to avoid it. So some people want to live a little longer, and they try everything they can.

There are thousands of ways to live long in this world, and there are very few people who really live long, because no one knows which method is good and which method is right. On the road of no return to immortality, everyone is experimenting with various methods.

Therefore, the first thing that comes to mind for people with special rights and privileged groups in the world is to monopolize this method and to pursue it tirelessly.

The most famous event in history of the pursuit of immortality is naturally the story of the First Emperor's pursuit of immortality, and there are thousands of versions of this event in the world, but they are all the same. But at the end of the story, the legendary master Xu Fu, after leading five hundred boys and girls on a boat in the East China Sea, he couldn't even find a shadow.

The First Emperor has become a joke for later generations, but the topic of immortality has never been erased, and it has also become a beautiful fairy tale on the road to immortality. Later generations of people pursued immortality, and they were the most prosperous and pious since the Qin and Han dynasties, and the latecomers have been in an endless stream since then.

The Taoist magic of immortality is often seen in the world, and the longevity of people in different eras have written books and lectures. There are also Taoist immortal figures and legends everywhere in the world, and Peng Zu lived for more than 800 years before the immortals, which is enough to make the world yearn for it.

For hundreds of years since the Han Dynasty, Taoism has given rise to many immortals in the world, satisfying the illusory ideals in the hearts of the majority of people. Since then, Taoism has become a place for the cultivation of immortals in people's minds, and it reached its peak in the Tang Dynasty.

Sun Simiao, Yuan Tiangang and others in the early Tang Dynasty were not only models for later generations to pursue immortality, but also the goal of their lives. Since the Middle Tang Dynasty, due to the greater prestige of the imperial court, the emperor and the general have promoted Taoism to the top, and countless miracles have emerged. For example, Zhang Guolao, who is a donkey in origami, Li Mi, the prime minister of cloth clothes, and others are enough to make those who pursue immortality crazy.

Since Xuanzong was the most prosperous, Suzong transitioned in turmoil, and although Daizong inherited the peace, it also contributed to the decline of the Tang Dynasty. For more than 100 years since Dezong, the society of the Tang Dynasty was in turmoil, the people in the world were not happy, many people had helplessness, and many illusory ideals were derived. People's theory of immortals and immortality has reached its peak.

It seems to be an unrelated thing, but it was an accident in a long worm. Immortality is unattainable for people, and it is almost impossible for livestock insects, but now in a long worm, it has been unexpectedly verified.

How long does a long worm live? It shouldn't be longer than a person's life!

Now there is a worm that is more than 100 years old! A hundred years is undoubtedly an outlier for people, and human beings, the spirits of all things, can only make a helpless long cry for the length of life.

A hundred years is nothing less than a myth for insects and beasts. In a hundred years, they can not only cultivate into refinement, but also uphold the aura of heaven and earth, which is the survival state of long insects as said by Taoists in the past dynasties!

In this era that has always been regarded as the coexistence of gods and ghosts, a hundred-year-old worm means and what it means, that is, the common people understand! Not to mention these people who have been pursuing immortality all their lives.

If you get this long worm, you will inevitably get its lifelong cultivation experience! Although human beings are different from birds and animals, there must be something in common when cultivating in the world. Therefore, getting this golden forty-eight verse will be what everyone thinks in their hearts.

Qin Zhuang's face became solemn, not that he was afraid that this legendary Golden Forty-Eight Festival would hurt people, the beast that had cultivated to perfection had never touched it, although it was also very dangerous, but presumably it could go through the thunder tribulation and cultivate, and it must be a great opening of wisdom.

Although the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism have different practices for practice, they will both explain the calamities of cultivation, and the less killings in a lifetime, the fewer the catastrophes will be when they finally become successful. This is the consensus in the hearts of almost all practitioners, so for this golden forty-eight festival with great spiritual awareness, it will definitely not hurt people easily.

Of course, for Qin Zhuang, he is not afraid of livestock and beasts hurting people, but is worried that these people around him are eyeing him.

Although he vaguely knew that Feng Biwei, the fairy of Yaochi, had something to do with his master and ghost mother, he had no relationship with her after all. The rule on the rivers and lakes is survival of the fittest, and even the ghost mother must do the same. Looking at the four people beside him, Qin Zhuang slightly motioned for them to step aside for the first time.

Dong Wei and Chen Liuxiang can be said to be outstanding disciples of the Hell Gate generation, although their master is quite scheming, but he is still dedicated and sincere to teach his disciples. The two of them not only received attention in the school, but also benefited a lot from the continuous learning with the elders in the door, and they also had the intention of being better than the blue.

and the Jiao brothers standing on the side, who are also rare masters in the rivers and lakes, as two people who became famous earlier than Dong Wei and Chen Liuxiang, they are both figures entrusted by the sect to Chudi.

They were very vigilant and paid attention to their surroundings, after all, the arrival of a few old antiques, although they did not put pressure on them publicly, they already clearly felt a different state. Seeing that Qin Zhuang had a hint, he immediately followed Qin Zhuang to the left outside the cave.

There is a huge bluestone more than one person high, like a door outside the cave, which looks like a barrier. It can not only prevent the sudden danger in the cave, but also save the safety brought by the people around you.

Because of the people who are not far behind them now, on one side is Feng Biwei, the fairy of Yaochi, who is standing on the stone; On one side is the calm Mr. Guiyuan. These two people can be said to be the least stressful and dangerous for several people in Qinzhuang at present. The best part is that you can also prevent people from behind, and you can also see Nan Fenghan and Lu Ni in the treetops opposite.

Not to mention Nan Fenghan and Vortex who have never shown too much malice, one is graceful and dashing like a fairy, and the other is bright and seductive, full of smiles. Even if Dong Wei and a few people don't have Qin Zhuang's cultivation, they can all see that they are tired, and these two people are not so good at it.

I have faintly heard of Nan Fenghan's name, not to mention how the two of them are now, being able to make Qin Zhuang so cautious naturally increases the pressure on Dong Biao and several people. Although there is not much wrong with the demeanor of Nan Fenghan and the two people, it is that their words and deeds seem to have a fascinating **.

If you are deceived by them, I am afraid that you will fall into a state of no return. This is something that Dong Wei and several people know very well, so standing behind Qin Zhuang became even quieter, and he had to keep a low profile.

As for Mr. Guiyuan, who has not said much, although he seems to be on the wrong road from Nan Fenghan, he stops there, and he feels light. Dong Wei knew that he was much stronger than his master, and several people followed Qin Zhuang to wait for him, so he naturally heard Qin Zhuang mention that there was a stealth peerless master by He Xiaoyao's side.

It was a bit confusing and wary for a few people, but it felt reasonable. What I thought was easy to catch is now a little impossible. If it is an ordinary person, it is inevitable that there will be unsatisfactory in their hearts, and Dong Wei and a few people have thought about it in their hearts and figured out the key to it.

There has always been an unwritten rule on the rivers and lakes that does not allow ranger swordsmen with unique skills to openly support the warlords on all sides. If someone violates this law, it will naturally cause a group to attack it!

Of course, this is only a superficial rule, but how many strange people have been hiding in the military camp since ancient times?

Everyone tacitly understands that they are naturally safe!

He Xiaoyao, as a general from Lingnan to Chu, if the Great Han State did not send someone to protect him, it seemed a little unreasonable. There are no ranger swordsmen with high martial arts, at least there are elite guards.

The Jiao brothers have always been in charge of the information of the Hell Gate stationed in the western part of Chudi, and they naturally need to know this Lingnan general who led the army to attack Chudi. When the Lingnan army broke through Daozhou City, they lurked into Daozhou. However, he was impressed by the strict guards around He Xiaoyao, because they could hardly get to know each other closely.

Later, He Xiaoyao led the army along Xiaoshui all the way north, and they followed all the way. Then, they found out that He Xiaoyao had an extra top master by his side. It's not that they discovered Mr. Guiyuan's whereabouts, but they were naturally keenly aware of danger.

They didn't interfere in the slightest, but reported the information one by one. As the holy gate known as the first in the world, the Hell Gate has always been not small. Although the current head of the ghost emperor, Qin Que, did not express the slightest idea of competing for dominance in the world, monitoring the dynamics of the world has always been what the hell gate is doing.

However, most people think that the Han Dynasty is separated by the five mountains, and will only try to protect itself and be safe. What's more, since the founding emperor Liu Yan, there are no big figures in the court who can take on it, so even the Chu side that is close at hand has never thought that Lingnan will take the initiative.

Since the Southern Tang Dynasty withdrew from Chu and the Southern Han Kingdom seized a place in Chenzhou, Liu Sheng, the lord of the Southern Han Dynasty, died, and now the young master is just a child who can only play in the eyes of Zhou Xingfeng. usually arranged his sworn brother Zhang Wenbiao to prevent the southward advance, and the focus of prevention was on the famous Han general Pan Chongche.

No one thought that the Southern Han Kingdom would attack like this, and it would be easy to kill Yongzhou City.

The Jiao brothers didn't know how the elders and Dharma protectors in the sect would react when they received their messages. When he saw Qin Zhuang coming to Yongzhou City, he knew that the gate did not take He Xiaoyao's invasion seriously, and just thought that the local warlords in Lingnan had sent troops privately.

But since seeing He Xiaoyao, Yongzhou City, an important town in the south of Chudi, was actually defeated with one blow, even Qinzhuang, who was breezy and calm, understood that Chu underestimated the strength of the Great Han, and the Holy Gate even looked down on the talents of Lingnan.

Qin Zhuang did not stop the Jiao brothers from reporting, but he was indifferent and did not want to participate in this kind of political affairs.

Although his elder brother Qin Que is now the speaker of the Holy Gate, Qin Zhuang understands the current situation of the Holy Gate, and he, the contemporary ghost emperor, is afraid that it will not be easy. The kings of all palaces have great self-determination, although they are respectful to Qin Que on the surface, in fact, no one takes Qin Que seriously.

His master and ghost mother originally had the most prestige in the Holy Gate, but they had not seen her for more than ten years, and her brothers and sisters were secretly attached to other Hades or elders, and they were bold enough to see that no one in the door came out, and they had the momentum to reappear in the rivers and lakes.

Although Qin Zhuang had never thought about this, and as a ghost judge, he had always paid close attention to the actions of the disciples in the sect, and he had the heavy responsibility of supervision, but he was also relaxed. seems to be careless, but naturally has a little more understanding of today's general trend that others don't know.

Knowing that the Lingnan army moved quickly this time, it was obvious that it had been premeditated and prepared. He couldn't help but be a little more curious about the wild Lingnan, and decided that this time his own affairs were over, and he would definitely go to Xingwangfu to see it in person.

I also knew in my heart that if Chu Di couldn't effectively stop He Xiaoyao this time, I was afraid that he would rely on Xiaoshui to drive straight into Chu Di's belly.

As a force that secretly supports He Xiaoyao, the weight of Mr. Guiyuan's header is no longer something that ordinary people can estimate. Qin Zhuang naturally didn't know why Mr. Guiyuan came out of the mountain, and he didn't think about it so much. But knowing that he is a reclusive master in the rivers and lakes, he is earlier than his eldest brother Qin Que became famous, and when he became famous, he was almost in hiding.

In the area south of the Yangtze River, the reputation of the five sons of Shangqing Dadong is great, and the disciples can be said to be innumerable. And the five sons of Dadong are only children in front of Mr. Guiyuan, and now he is actually standing in the Lingnan army, which can imagine the shock to Qin Zhuang.

The young emperor of Lingnan is not simple! Or that it is not simple to have someone around him.

I also know that although Mr. Guiyuan has been in seclusion for many years and has long ceased to care about the world, there are a few people in the rivers and lakes who can break away from the circle of the rivers and lakes. After decades of cultivation, I am afraid that my cultivation is even more profound, and I should have already broken away from the framework of moves.

Qin Zhuang knew that when he faced him, it was like facing a deep pool and an abyss. Not to mention the feeling of Dong Bian, for an old antique like Mr. Guiyuan, there is only Gao Shan Angzhi.

Strictly speaking, he is naturally a master of the righteous path, but now that he has this relationship with himself, although Qin Zhuang is not sure what Mr. Guiyuan thinks, he should not be too much of a threat to himself. After all, not only does he have this relationship, but he also has to take care of his own righteous identity.

What's more, Qin Zhuang also has his own bit of pride, not to mention his reputation in the rivers and lakes, even his brother is the master of the Hell Gate, and his master is the nine sons and ghost mothers who everyone on the rivers and lakes, which is enough to discourage many people. What's more, he was not timid in the face of the Halloween Fairy back then, so he branded his current injury.

There is also the Yuan Marquis on the other side, who looks calm and self-contained, although he is only the owner of Lianyun Village on the Xiangjiang River, and even this small water village force, Chu Di Zhou Xingfeng did not pay attention to it. Qin Zhuang wouldn't think so now, looking at the Yuan family marquis who was still calm in the face of so many masters, Qin Zhuang was a little more cautious in his heart.

Even if you just look at his appearance, he is also a rare innate realm master on the rivers and lakes, but Qin Zhuang knows that it is not just that.

There are many innate masters on the rivers and lakes, but there are not many who have a high realm, because everyone knows what kind of qualitative change the improvement of each realm means. Seeing the quiet Yuan Marquis, Qin Zhuang was sure that his cultivation would not be too much different from his own.

This is definitely a master with ideas, Qin Zhuang has seen the information collected about him by the Holy Gate, and it seems that there are only a few words. This Yuan Marquis is not as good as his subordinates, and Xia Ming, the main steel-clawed harrier of Yunzhai Erzhai, is in the limelight.

Qin Zhuang knew that this was the only thought in his heart after seeing him. This Yuan Shihou is definitely a character, a person who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger. Qin Zhuang was proud of himself, but even if he had any ideas, he had to worry that he would not be able to handle his own words, and he would suffer the crazy revenge from the Holy Gate, how could he dare to fight with his Holy Gate.

Presumably even if he came here, facing these big guys, Yuan Shihou was also a little apprehensive in his heart. Now I just want to see if there will be a chance, or I want to see the demeanor of the masters. Now that a few people are basically balanced, the Marquis of the Yuan clan does not dare to retreat, and even fears that he will be wiped out by these old antiques, Qin Zhuang has no doubt that some people will be ruthless.

Of course, this person could be any master in the field! Whether the Marquis of the Yuan family has the ability to retreat with his whole body, Qin Zhuang has a little measure in his heart.

Qin Que still has this bit of pride, and in the face of the survival of the fittest in the rivers and lakes, he naturally understands this rule. Presumably, people like Yuan Shihou who like to hide themselves will understand the trick.

Among these people, the most dangerous on the surface today are naturally the personable Nan Fenghan and the charming Yunni. If it was just a rare treasure, the two of them would naturally not be so enthusiastic, but now it is a treasure related to cultivation. Obviously, the practice of the Golden Forty-Eight Festival itself has made these old antiques excited.

Everyone knows that now it's coming out. The clouds are from the dragon and the wind from the tiger, at this moment, the people present obviously know to be calm, and the most excited is naturally Qin Zhuang who is guarding the edge of the cave.

"Good!" Feng Biwei actually landed lightly beside his white tiger, and his white and tender soft fingers caressed the top of his head, comforting the anxious white tiger. The white tiger couldn't stop roaring, and a pair of eyes were fixed on the cave.

Before the sound has been reached, strange things must have strange deeds!

The deep, narrow cave seemed to be the door of hell that suddenly opened, making people feel a sense of powerless loneliness and fear. The white tiger seems to have a natural instinct and is more likely to sense the approach of danger than humans, and it is obviously also born with a different species.

Under Feng Biwei's comfort, the white tiger seemed to be much calmer, a pair of tiger eyes were still angry, and his nervous expression made people even more frightened. Feng Biwei was fluttering, as if he didn't care, but his eyes looked at Qin Zhuang, full of encouragement and a hint of comfort, and he actually had some naughty looks.

Qin Zhuang felt a little bitterly smiling, this fairy with an outstanding figure was really a beauty that could not be speculated. Although standing there like a fairy, his body was uneven and clear, in Qin Zhuang's eyes, there was no seductive consciousness at all.

Although she is slightly younger than her master, she must also be a senior who has cultivated more than one jiazi. Looking at her shy little daughter's form, how can she have half of the consciousness of her predecessors.

Qin Zhuang heard the ghost mother say that the master aura of the innate realm has been synchronized with heaven and earth, and he can do it with the art of rejuvenating his face, and his appearance will stay in the time when he enters the innate realm. Presumably, Feng Biwei is just a profound cultivator, and he has already had a good experience.

But no matter what, Qin Zhuang believes that because of her and Mr. Guiyuan, it is a good thing for him.

"Isn't there too many idlers, wait for a certain family to clean up some of these los first! Save to scare away this foreign body! Nan Fenghan's eyes were cold, and he suddenly looked at the people in Yin Jiabao opposite. Although Qin Zhuang has already warned everyone, everyone knows the stakes, and no one will speak out. But in Nan Fenghan's eyes, cultivating too low is a burden.

Usually, although Nan Fenghan can't practice the mainstream Taoism of the Central Plains, he doesn't take action against these juniors and loses his own value. But when he came to Yongzhou City this time, one was to promise a junior to take action for the occupation of Yongzhou City by Lingnan, and the second was the news that he got unexpectedly.

Now it is obvious that this matter has been bigger than the Yongzhou City.

As a Taoist wizard who has practiced for more than a year, Nan Fenghan's eyesight is beyond the guess of ordinary people. Naturally, he knew the effect of this golden forty-eight festival on himself, and after he began to hear the news, his heart was naturally excited. The great feeling is God's hint to himself, and the heart is naturally bound to win.

Although he was invited to Yongzhou City for the first time, he naturally got some things from the other party for some interests. I didn't expect to get this good news unexpectedly, I thought it was easy to get it, but who knew that I couldn't scare Qin Zhuang when I saw it, and I also met Feng Biwei, the fairy of Yaochi, and even led Mr. Guiyuan out, so I wanted to kill the chicken and the monkey and attack the people of Yin Jiabao.

When he came to Yongzhou City, he saw that in an instant, Yongzhou City actually fell into the pocket of the Lingnan Han, and Nan Fenghan naturally found out the reason. Naturally, they also know a little about the small force of Yinjiabao, and they know something about their support for the Han Dynasty to capture Lingling City, and they robbed and looted everywhere.

Originally, Nan Fenghan was arrogant, and he didn't pay attention to this local snake force at all. The person who originally entrusted him with the request had a bit of courage and ideas. Naturally, someone was arranged to deal with them, but seeing that they were just at the right time, Nan Fenghan wanted to clean them up.

"Blissful Monster, you'd better stand there!" Mr. Guiyuan's eyelids twitched slightly, and he stood with his hands in his hands a little free, looking at Nan Fenghan's fluttering clothes, and couldn't help but spit slowly.

He followed He Xiaoyao into Yongzhou City, and naturally understood the cooperation between Yin Jiabao and the Han army. Although he is not ashamed of Yin Jiabao's methods, he also knows that what war cannot avoid is suffering. I can't help but know a little more about the courage of Yin Shangxun, the lord of Yinjiabao Fort, in my heart.

Indeed, Yin Jiabao's behavior in supporting the Han army was undoubtedly the reason for the success of this operation.

Looking at Nan Fenghan's somewhat cruel gaze, Mr. Guiyuan knew what he was thinking. However, it was not that he was afraid of his move, but more thoughts in his heart, that is, why he would return to the Central Plains again without hesitation this time.

"I haven't seen the stinky Taoist for decades, but I didn't expect that my cultivation would have grown a little!" Nan Fenghan smiled, as if he was talking to an old friend. Hiding the killing machine in his eyes, he looked at everyone with a smile.

In fact, when he looked at Mr. Guiyuan, countless thoughts flashed in his heart. Because in the face of Mr. Guiyuan, his qi was locked tightly on himself, and it was obvious that his primary target was himself. Nan Fenghan had a secret hatred in his heart, but there was not the slightest color on his face.

is also from the Daomen, and Mr. Guiyuan is considered to be the Great Dao, after all, he is the descendant of Shangqing Luqiu Fangyuan.

When it comes to the masters of this level, they have long ignored the importance of tricks. What Nan Fenghan attaches more importance to is how much advantage he will have if he makes a move. Seeing that Mr. Guiyuan seemed to be light-hearted, he knew that if he attacked Yin Jiabao's people, he would definitely attack him without hesitation.

couldn't help laughing: "It's just that the temper seems to be getting more and more stinky!" Isn't Taoism particular about quiet and inaction, you used to say that this great immortal is an evil crooked way, and now it seems that you have more thoughts in your heart, it's really ridiculous! Now I don't think so! ”

Although he didn't seem to care a little about Mr. Guiyuan, he also knew that Mr. Guiyuan was not a soft persimmon, and his cultivation would not be weaker than himself. Although he has not fought with Mr. Guiyuan, for a master of this level, the moves and routines have long been useless, and what he pursues is the perception in his heart and the momentum of the qi.

Naturally, the sensitivity to the opponent's qi is countless times stronger than that of ordinary masters.

This Taoist priest who also looks like he has a bit of immortal wind bones, but he has far exceeded his imagination!

There was a loud roar, as if something had been choked by the neck, and a huge fishy smell came.
