Chapter 111: Changbai Asks (I)

It's not that Master has changed anything, but Master has returned to his former demeanor, and I can't get used to it for a while. During this time, I have been playing the role of a good apprentice who takes care of Master, but in the end, Master recovered, healed, and my Taoism went to the next level, and I became Master's good apprentice again, silently following behind Master.

Even the speed of our march was more than many times faster, all the way to the hinterland of Changbai Mountain, the master barely even took a breath of air, and it was even more immortal. It's that I'm so tired that I'm panting all the way, drinking water for a while and looking for something to eat, looking at Master's realm from afar, it really makes me breathtaking, I don't know what year and month, I can reach the point where Master swallows the sun!

The so-called swallowing qi is a term on the way of cultivation, and it is not difficult to understand from the literal meaning, that is, you only need to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, swallow the light of the nine clouds, that is, refer to the qi of the Dao, and you can stop the five grains and walk on the path of immortality. This is a beautiful metaphor and envy for the immortals. The so-called essence does not think about desire, qi is full and does not think about food, and the spirit is not sleepy, refining essence and can turn into qi, refining qi and can nourish the spirit, and the spirit and spirit are full, then it will naturally arise and be in harmony with the avenue.

Every cultivator will experience the subtle feeling of being full of spirit and energy, being one with heaven and earth, being in harmony with the Great Dao, and wandering in the void and at ease. The ancients used things to travel with their hearts, and they communicated with the spirit of heaven and earth. That is to say, this mysterious realm. And Master's current realm, I estimate that this is the case, but when I see Master, every time I look at him, I feel that I can't see through it no matter what, Master's realm at this moment seems to be a void, bottomless, and boundless.

It makes people look forward to, it makes people awe, and it makes people dependent. Perhaps most of the masters hidden between heaven and earth were created in this way.

At the foot of the peak of Yuxue Peak in Changbai Mountain, Master suddenly turned his head to me and asked, "Ergou, what are you thinking about grinding there?" But it's so distracted! Hearing Master's words, I suddenly turned my head and grinned, Master glared at me angrily, and then said, "Ergou, from here to Tianchi in Changbai Mountain, and then from Tianchi to find the whereabouts of your senior brother Chu Qi, and then inquire about the movements of the Xianzong and the Demon Dao Xuan Demon Old Dao Master and Apprentice, and then, we will make another plan!" ”

In the past, Master said that at first, Senior Brother Seven, he didn't want to say too much, but now, Master and I are finally about to meet Senior Brother Chuqi. Master, are you letting go? Or is it because of Master's diligent Taoism that he has attained a higher level of Taoism? I can't figure it out, but I don't want to bother thinking about it, as long as the master can meet the seventh senior brother again, and our master and apprentice can get together, I think it will be the happiest moment for me Li Ergou.

Now, my only goal is to see Senior Brother Junior Seven immediately, to know how extraordinary Senior Brother Junior Seven is, and to know what Senior Brother Junior Seven has gone through since they were separated from Master for so long. Speaking of which, I haven't been separated from Master for too long, and when I think of Senior Brother Chuqi, I can actually be separated from Master and take on the important task of finding the Eight Treasures of Zhenshan of the Maoshan Sect alone, this courage and courage alone are all examples for me to learn!

I looked at Changbai with emotion, Changbai Mountain, which is said to be the birthplace of the Manchus, and there are many myths and stories related to the Manchus. Of course, that is only the history of Aixinjue Luo, to really trace the origin of Changbai Mountain, in fact, the original name of Changbai Mountain is not Changbai Mountain. According to the records of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Great Wilderness and the Northern Classic, Changbai Mountain was originally named Buxian Mountain, and in the Han Dynasty, it was recorded in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty and the Biography of Dongyi: "...... In the fifth year of Emperor Zhao, Lintun and Zhenfan were dismissed, and Lelang, Xuansu, Xuansu, and Xuansu resettled in Juli, from the east of Daling alone...... Among them, Daling alone refers to Changbai Mountain, which was renamed Gaima Mountain during the Wei Dynasty, and changed from Taishan Mountain during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and later changed to Changbai Mountain by Jin Shizong Wanyanyong. ”

Changbai Mountain is like a jade dragon, lying across the northeast frontier, it makes the world yearn for its beauty and richness, and attracts literati and artists from all over the world to stop and leave traces with its spectacular scenery. And the jade snow peak in front of you is one of the sixteen peaks of the Changbai Mountain Range, the peak of this peak, all the year round is snow-white, but the foot of the mountain is lush with vegetation, there is a saying, that the snow-white is not all snow, many are white pumice, such as jade-like crystal, a few of them have the snow that does not melt all year round!

Yuxue Peak, also known as the crown peak, is more than 2,000 meters above sea level, located in the south of Tianchi and faces Tianhuo Peak and Tianchi Waterfall. So if we want to rush to Tianchi and find clues from Tianchi for the seventh senior brother, we still have to go up the mountain first. However, I don't quite understand why Master has to start the search from Tianchi. Maybe this is calculated by Master again, but I believe that there must be other reasons, otherwise Master would not be so sure.

Before I could ask, the master said to me, "Now I want to tell you all about the secret manifestation dispute and the purpose of our master and apprentice's visit. Because, there are very important things for teachers that need you to do, so at this moment, you should know and you should know! The dispute between the Maoshan faction and the secret sect has lasted for thousands of years, and most of the masters of the Xianzong and the tantric masters of various generations are at odds with each other, so that the Maoshan faction has been passed down to the present, and it is gradually declining, but there is no sign of great prosperity! When it comes to the generation of teachers, we can only try our best to find a way to unify the Maoshan faction, but it is also imperative for Hyunjong to do it, and no matter where we go, we always show a situation of fighting with Hyunzong. Speaking of which, our two major sects are both for the purpose of unifying the Maoshan faction and revitalizing and carrying forward the Xuanfeng of the Daomen! ”

"Master, then to unify the Maoshan faction, you only need to find the secret of the ancestor token heaven and earth, why did you get in touch with the seventh senior brother?" I asked, puzzled.

The master shook his head, and then explained: "The secret of heaven and earth is a token left by the ancestor of the Maoshan faction, and once this token comes out, the Maoshan faction will inevitably merge into one. However, this token is related to the foundation of the Maoshan faction, so it is not possible to casually look for the ancestor token unless it is absolutely necessary. At first, our Tantra and the Sutra reached an agreement, whoever first finds the eight treasures of the Maoshan sect that have been lost in the world and brings them back to the Maoshan sect can take this as a letter and order the Maoshan sect to obtain the great cause of unification! ”

I was silent and looked at Master quietly, and Master paused, and then said, "However, the Eight Treasures of Zhenshan are also being fought over by the Sutra and Tantra, and the original agreement seems to be impossible to complete. Because the two major sects each hold a few treasures of Zhenshan, and no one can obtain eight, therefore, while looking for the eight treasures of Zhenshan, the teacher accidentally met your senior brother Chuqi. Your senior brother's first seven lives are peculiar, born with bad luck, as a teacher, at first he was pitiful for him helpless, so he accepted him as an apprentice, but gradually found that he was not just a little special in life, but in his body, with something closely connected with Maoshan Daomen! ”

"Master, what is the seventh senior brother carrying in his body?" I asked anxiously.

The master settled down and pondered for a moment before he continued: "Your senior brother came with the Mandate of Heaven in the seventh month, and the so-called Mandate of Heaven is his previous life, which was originally related to the Tao, and in this life, he came to the world with a great responsibility. In his body, there is another treasure of the Maoshan faction, the secret compass! The secret compass is the basis for the merger and inheritance of the two secret sects, so whoever can get the secret compass has an absolute advantage and can unify the Maoshan faction! ”

I opened my eyes slightly, and then asked in a trembling voice, "Master, then why don't you take out the secret compass in the body of Senior Brother Chuqi?" Wouldn't our Tantra be able to unify the Maoshan sect in that way? ”

The master looked at me with a complicated expression, and seeing the confusion on my face, the master sighed deeply: "If you want to take out the secret compass, your senior brother will definitely die on the seventh day of the first month." Because the secret compass is connected to his lifeline, either he lives and the secret compass never sees the light of day, or he takes out the secret compass, but your senior brother will die on the seventh day of the first month! This, this is an ending without a choice......"

"Huh?"

I opened my mouth, no wonder now Master and Gu Tan are going all over the world to find the secret of the ancestor token heaven and earth, it turns out that the secret compass on the first seven years of the senior brother can't be taken out at all. Moreover, once the secret compass is taken out, the seventh senior brother will definitely die, how can the master bear to let the seventh senior brother die? Naturally, I don't want Senior Brother Chu Qi to die, if I really want to choose, I just don't take out the secret compass! I'd rather it always exist in the body of Senior Brother Junior Seven, and never endanger Senior Brother Junior Seven's life!

Master then told me that Tantra and Sutra are undoubtedly deadlocked, and on the way to find the Eight Treasures of Zhenshan, we have successively encountered the master of the Demon Dao Martingale Lingzhi, that is, the old Dao of the Xuan Demon who has not appeared for a long time. had no choice but to negotiate peace with Gu Tan in private, and made a fake death, not only to make your senior brother Chu Qi think that the teacher was dead, but even the Xuan Demon Lao Dao thought that he was completely in control of your senior brother Chu Qi, and the death of the teacher made the Xuan Demon Lao Dao unscrupulous.

But the more this is the case, the more he will be exposed to the light, and the teacher will turn to the secret observation. The old Dao of the Xuan Demon wants to lead your senior brother into the Demon Dao and become the successor of his mantle, and what he values is nothing more than the secret compass in your senior brother's body. Those who get this thing will inevitably glorify the Dao Sect, and they will be able to conquer the heavens and the earth! In order to control your senior brother's seventh year, the old way of the Xuan Demon has been plotting for more than ten years, and these are slowly learned after being a teacher, but now, your senior brother has gradually entered the path of the devil, so this time not only to prevent Gu Tan from competing for the "Shangqing Edict" in the hands of the old way of the demon, but also to prevent the old way of the demon from introducing your senior brother to the deep of the seventh day of the devil, in addition, we also have to deal with the old way of the demon, plus the disciple of the old way of the demon martingale, often hidden in the shadows, even as a teacher, there is no way to take him, everything is the purpose of our trip, It's complicated and hard!
