For the Imperial Technique, it is one of the most basic spells for cultivators, and it can be used as long as they are just getting started, but the Tracking Technique is a rare spell.

Lao Dao had never heard of the tracking technique, and Chen Dong was not surprised, so he said: "This is a relatively special spell, which can be traced to the location of the other party through the breath of other cultivators, of course, the premise is that there must be the breath left by the other party, otherwise there is no way to track it." ”

"I see, no wonder Taoist friends can find here, I didn't expect that there are such powerful spells in the world, it's the old Taoist I sat in the well and watched the sky."

After listening to Chen Dong's explanation, Lao Dao understood the truth of the tracking technique, but he didn't ask much, after all, every cultivator has his own spell, and it would be rude to ask too much.

Originally, Chen Dong wanted to find this old Taoist, ask for news about the cultivators on the earth, and want to see if there was such an alchemist, but after hearing the old Taoist say that those cultivators had long since disappeared, Chen Dong didn't ask again.

He thought of the couplet at the door, and asked curiously: "By the way, Daoyou, who wrote the couplet at the door?" ”

"Huh! Do you think that couplet is too arrogant? Hearing Chen Dong ask this, Lao Dao guessed Chen Dong's thoughts, so he asked with a smile.

Chen Dong nodded.

Lao Dao continued: "Actually, I don't know who left it, because when I lived in it a hundred years ago, there was already this couplet on it, and it was ...... before that."

Maybe it was only a hundred years before he met a colleague, and the old Tao talked endlessly to Chen Dong about the past.

Time passed slowly, and soon it was evening!

Lao Dao told Chen Dong a lot about his past, so Chen Dong also knew that Lao Dao was more than 140 years old.

He came to this Taoist temple, it has indeed been a hundred years, at that time this Taoist temple was already very dilapidated, and no one lived in it, the old Taoist felt that this place was relatively quiet, and the aura was okay, and then he renovated this Taoist temple and stayed here to cultivate.

And he also has a master, and his cultivation techniques were also taught to him by his master, but unfortunately, his master passed away a hundred years ago, so he came to this Taoist temple.

"What made you persist in retreating here for a hundred years?"

Chen Dong was a little puzzled, a hundred years is indeed long enough, I don't know how this old way can stay.

Lao Dao smiled and said, "It's because of the couplet at the door that I have persevered until now." ”

"Oh? It means that when you see the couplet at the door, you also think that there are immortals in the world, so you want to concentrate on cultivation and become immortals? Chen Dong raised his eyebrows.

Lao Dao nodded and said: "Yes, judging from the couplet at the door, the owner of this Taoist temple must have been a cultivator before, and I estimate that his cultivation should be very high, otherwise it would be impossible for him to leave such a magnificent couplet, so it can also be seen that he is not talking casually, maybe there is really an immortal." ”

"So, do you think that the original owner of this Taoist temple has already ascended to immortality, so you will stay here to cultivate, and you also want to become an immortal like the previous master?"

Hearing him say this, Chen Dong also guessed his thoughts.

Lao Dao did not deny it: "That's right, it's a pity that I thought too much, who knows that in the past hundred years, I have only cultivated to the late stage of foundation building, and I can't even reach the fusion period, what kind of immortal can I talk about?" Hehe, it's all just self-deception. ”

The old Taoist has been cultivating for a hundred years, and he can only cultivate to the late stage of foundation building, which really surprised Chen Dong.

However, considering that the aura of the earth is very poor, and it is estimated that there are no good exercises, and the comprehension of this old way should not be high, so it is not surprising that it took a hundred years to cultivate the late stage of foundation building.

"By the way, Daoyou, do you think there are really immortals in this world?" Suddenly, Lao Dao asked Chen Dong again.

Chen Dong didn't expect that he would ask himself this question, so he stood up, walked to the window next to him, and stared out the window quietly, it was almost dusk at this time, and the sky was already dark.

It's the end of summer, and there's a cool breeze in the evening.

Syllable!

Chen Dong snapped his fingers, and a leaf that was falling from the tree flew into his hand, and then he muttered to himself: "Once, I also asked the same question, dare to ask the heavens, is there an immortal?" But when I followed the footsteps of the avenue, I realized that it was so far away, or I would be like this fallen leaf, and I would not know this answer on the day I returned to the earth. ”

For some reason, when Lao Dao heard Chen Dong's low words, he felt that there was a little vicissitudes in Chen Dong's voice.

It's as if Chen Dong is an old man who is older than him, who has seen through the vicissitudes of the world and the path of cultivation.

But the person in front of him is obviously just a young man, how can he have such a vicissitudes of life?

Of course, he didn't know that in fact, in Chen Dong's previous life, he had lived for more than 500 years, and his cultivation had reached the late stage of transforming into a god.

And the same thing is that even if they were in the cultivation realm back then, those cultivators were the same, following the Great Dao, looking for the path of immortals, they also wanted to become immortals, but no one got the answer, how could it be that this old Taoist on the earth could understand?

"It seems that Daoyou has also experienced ups and downs in the world!" The old way said.

"Huh!"

Chen Dong just smiled back and didn't answer him, because he didn't know how to answer.

Then, he threw the short sword towards Lao Dao: "This sword is returned to its original owner and put it away." ”

Lao Dao took it and said, "Actually, this sword ...... When I came to the temple, there was nothing inside, but in the dark compartment of the wall, I found this sword, so I kept it. ”

"Oh? Is it this Taoist thing? Why did that fellow Daoist give it to your disciple again? ”

Hearing that this short sword was actually left in the Taoist temple, Chen Dong was stunned, although this is just an inferior magic weapon, but no matter how you say it, it can be regarded as a magic weapon, and it is still useful for cultivators, and Hou Gongxiao, the disciple of the old Tao, is just a mortal, and it is useless to give it to him.

Lao Dao explained: "I have never been out of this Taoist temple, and it is useless to stay, and I accepted disciples, originally I wanted to pass on his cultivation skills, but who knew that he did not have a little understanding, and he could not cultivate the Tao at all, so he could only pass on some of his self-defense skills, of course, this is also beneficial, although he can't cultivate, but at least he can occasionally send me some supplies." ”

"I see!"

After hearing this, Chen Dong understood that Lao Dao wanted to teach Hou Gongwei to cultivate, but who knew that Hou Gongwei had no understanding and couldn't cultivate, so Lao Dao simply taught him some kung fu and let him mix up outside.

In this way, someone will help him run errands, and send him some supplies from time to time, although the old Taoist concentrating on cultivation does not need a lot of materials, but the minimum living guarantee is still to be had.

And after Hou Gongwei went down the mountain, he was met by the people of the Bai family, and then asked him to guard the Bai family.

"Since you have a fate with Daoyou, this sword will be given to you!"

After Lao Dao finished speaking, he threw the short sword to Chen Dong again.

And Chen Dong was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he was not polite, after all, he really needed a magic weapon that was worthy of his hands now, and this short sword was just right, and it was not conspicuous when he was usually placed on his body, so it would not attract the attention of others.

"Then thank you Daoyou!" Chen Dong thanked him.

looked outside, the time was not early, and he said: "Then don't disturb the rest of the Taoist friends, if you have the opportunity, you will come to meet with the Taoist friends in the future." ”

"Okay, the Taoist temple is poor, so I won't leave Taoist friends here to spend the night, Taoist friends please!"

Seeing that Chen Dong was leaving, Lao Dao didn't leave him, so he got up to see him off.

When Chen Dong walked outside the Taoist temple, Lao Dao closed the door, and Chen Dong looked back at the couplet again, then shook his head with a smile.

muttered to himself: "The master of this Taoist temple, has he really become an immortal?" Or is he, like this old way, just a void in the end? ”

It's a pity that even Lao Dao doesn't know who the original owner of this Taoist temple is, and Chen Dong naturally doesn't know the answer.

Then he turned and walked down the mountain.

Soon, the sky was completely dark, and the whole Taoist temple fell into darkness, if you look down from above, you can find that this Taoist temple looks like a giant, standing in the night, it looks a little strange......
