Chapter 10: The Mysterious Old Man

Su Ming cautiously walked into the cave, the ground was very dusty, and it seemed that no one had walked for a long time. The rock walls on both sides are of different shapes, and there are many protruding rock edges and corners that are as sharp as sharp knives. The cave twisted and turned, and after about a stick of incense, a hall the size of four or five side rooms appeared in front of Su Ming's eyes.

The hall is much higher than the cave, and above the left corner, there is a hole with the thickness of an adult's waist, and the mouth of the cave gushes out of the clear spring water, and there is a small pool in front of the hall, which is crystal clear, and on the right side of the pool there is an entrance to the water, from which the spring water flows.

In the middle of the pool, there was a protruding rock, which was a monolithic, rectangular in shape, brown, and the size of half a chamber. There are also oblique strips on the side of the rock, which is simple and elegant, and the rock protrudes more than a meter high above the water surface, abruptly in the middle of the pool, and it seems that someone deliberately placed it there.

Su Ming stripped off, threw his clothes on the opposite rock, jumped into the pool, the cold mountain spring stimulated every inch of Su Ming's skin, and Su Ming's teeth chattered in the cold, no way, Su Ming hadn't taken a bath for several days, and there was a smell on his body.

After scrubbing at random, Su Ming swam to the bottom of the rock, turned over and climbed up, and put on his clothes.

"Huh?"

There was a hole in the middle of the rock, the hole was concave downward, just enough for a person to pass through, Su Ming squatted down, leaned over and looked, there were stone steps in the cave, and went down, Su Ming thought about it, looked at the surrounding situation, did not think carefully, and entered the cave.

The stone steps are zigzag-shaped, just to the first corner. Thundered. Su Ming felt swaying, and the whole space was descending. If you look up, you can't!

I saw that the whole rock had descended to the bottom of the pool, but to Su Ming's surprise, the spring water did not flow into the cave, and the hole above seemed to have a layer of film to block the water. Su Ming went up and pushed it out, but the film didn't move.

It seems that there is only one way to go. Su Ming regretted that he had entered the cave rashly, but it was useless to say anything now.

The stone steps turn every twelve steps and continue down. Su Ming counted carefully, about seven or eight turns, and then thought about it, this distance had already reached the ground.

Ahead was a half-human-high, broken hole, and there was still some light in the cave. Su Ming was very surprised and a little frightened, but he still looked cautiously into the cave, a round hall, empty, except for a wooden Taishi chair in the middle of the place, what surprised Su Ming even more was that there was a human being in a black robe sitting on the chair, and the black hat covered the person's face, and he couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman, and a black robe was covered with dust.

Stepping over the gravel and entering the main hall, Su Ming carefully looked at this hall, to be precise, this hall is octagonal, walking along the wall of the main hall, the more Su Ming looked, the more shocked and surprised.

The hall is planned according to the direction of the gossip, and there is a gossip trigram in the corner of each side, Su Ming looked around, yes, Qian, Kun, Zhen, Di, Kan, Li, Gen, Dui, in front of each side of the ground, there are stone troughs of different lengths to correspond.

Su Ming was surprised beyond words, how could the gossip of Huaxia Taoism be here, and then think about it, no wonder there is a Taoist temple here, it may be related to this. I looked at the dusty Taishi chair again. Su Ming was a little puzzled, strange, it stands to reason that there should be a yin and yang pisces pattern in the middle, how could there be none.

Su Ming circled around the Taishi chair and circled around the periphery twice. Su Ming remembered that the yin and yang pisces represent two different states, and each fish has a dot in it, which is different from its color, representing that I have you, you have me, and it is inseparable.

An hour passed, and Su Ming almost touched almost all the walls in the hall, all of which were solid and had no exit.

In fact, Su Ming had an idea for a long time, but he didn't know if it was feasible, so it seemed that he could only give it a try now.

Su Ming measured the distance from the middle of the Taishi chair to the opposite right-angled wall with his feet, wrote down the number, and then began to walk in the direction of the wooden chair from the middle of the right-angled wall opposite.

The floor of the hall was paved with neat stones, and when Su Ming finished his last step, hum, hum, the whole hall trembled slightly. Su Ming was startled, his face changed greatly, it won't collapse, just remembered to leave with his feet, and found that his feet seemed to be sticky to something, and he couldn't lift them.

Airplanes!

A beautiful circle lit up around Su Ming, and the light of the circle came from the hard ground, and even the light was pale blue, enveloping the wooden chair and Su Ming in the circle.

Buzz, buzz. Two more crisp sounds sounded, this time it was the periphery of Su Ming's feet, and a light blue circle lit up from the ground, covering Su Ming in it. Su Ming looked up and saw that the Taishi chair was also covered in a light blue circle.

Sure enough, Su Ming guessed correctly, the position of himself and the Taishi chair was the two circle points in the Yin and Yang Pisces, so that the entire gossip map was complete.

Boom, the whole space trembled, and the hexagram lines in the eight corners of the wall suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and the bright Su Ming couldn't open his eyes, and after a while, the light dimmed, but the light was still as dazzling as the street lamps on the street.

"After waiting for nearly a thousand years, someone finally came, hey!"

The old man's voice frightened Su Ming half to death, his face turned white, his forehead and back were cold sweat, and he trembled: "Who, who is talking to me?"

The empty hall echoed with Su Ming's words, and suddenly, a white light lit up in front of the black-robed man sitting on the chair opposite, and after a few breaths, a virtual image of a black-robed old man appeared in front of Su Ming. He was still dressed in a black robe, only the three-inch-long white beard at his chin was visible, and the rest was not clear.

"Are you?" Su Ming calmed down his nervous mood, bowed down and clenched his fists respectfully: "Senior Su Ming, meet the senior." ”

First, you can win the favor of the other party, and second, how can you go out and count on the other party!

"Well, you can see through the gossip diagram to show that you have a relationship with me, the old man Li Xuanji, known as the old man Xuanji, boy, who is your master, who told you this gossip diagram?"

Although he couldn't see the expression of the mysterious old man, Su Ming still felt that he seemed to be being targeted by something, and he felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, and after three breaths, this feeling disappeared.

"Xuanji seniors, the younger generations don't have a master, and the younger generations of this gossip map have known since childhood. Su Ming didn't dare to say much, nor did he dare to lie, so he told the truth.

"Oh, you're not from this continent?" the old voice sounded again.

Su Ming pondered for a moment, and still talked about his life experience.

"What, are you saying that there was Taoism in your previous world, and this gossip map is familiar to almost everyone?"

"I see, I know where you came from, you came from the plane of my ancestors. Haha, what a surprise. The old man laughed.

"Your ancestors?" Su Ming didn't know why, and then seemed to think of something, his pupils shrank, and his face was full of incredible expressions, and he was shocked: "Lao Tzu Li Dan?"

"Not bad, haha. ”

Su Ming was short of breath, so it was so, no wonder it was said in the Chinese history books that Lao Tzu disappeared after sending a letter to Guguan, and it turned out that he came here.

Then Su Ming told some things about Lao Tzu in Huaxia. The old man told Su Ming that in the last era, the Taoist school founded by the ancestors, and its descendants entered the Taoism with Taoism, which was Taoism, at that time Taoism was called the first major religion in this continent, but unfortunately the ancestors went out after five hundred years and disappeared, and then as the ancestors said, the extremes of things must be reversed, less than a thousand years, Taoism was lonely, and it was divided into many schools. Speaking of this mystery, the old man sighed, full of endless sorrow.
