Chapter 7: Old Things
"Oh?" Duoyu Lao Dao smiled and glanced at the apprentice he had just received at the foot of Huaguo Mountain, who had just been injured by his own casual blow, and his original boy Wuhua, and said to Duomengdao: "Haha...... Yes, senior brother, what my good disciple said is true, this water bead is your apprentice's nameless, hahahaha......"
"Really? I don't know when you accepted a little girl as a disciple, hehe...... Thinking about it, the Jade Palace Taoist Temple is also a place where dirt is hidden. Duomeng Dao said coldly, and glanced at Wuhua who was still sitting on the ground with his cloak exuding.
"You ......" Duoyu Lao Dao couldn't help but feel a little angry when he heard this: "More than ten years ago, on the way back to the city, I brought her who was abandoned from the gate of Haizhou City back to the Taoist temple, and I always asked her to dress up as a man, take her by her side to be a child, and raise her to such a big age." Do you think I'm as mean as you are? You took it away from here and kept the nameless one back then, just because of this water droplet, you just wanted to see if there was a chance to kill chickens and eggs, kill people and take pearls. I think that kid is still in the dark, thinking that every time you urge him to practice and sometimes try to pass on the merits, he is anxious that his cultivation progress is slow, and you are grateful to you, senior brother, and feel that you have failed to live up to your expectations. Hehehe...... How did he know that you were actually just looking inside him for this water-repellent orb? But fortunately, in the past sixteen years, you have not succeeded, otherwise he would have died a long time ago, in the barren mountains and mountains of Guigu Mountain. Hahahaha......"
"Master, what Uncle Shi said is true, but it's all true." Nameless had woken up at some point, but he was in pain and weak, as if he had been cramped, and he was trying to get up with his arms propped up, but he didn't succeed, and he lay limply on the spot.
"Nameless Senior Brother." Wuhua didn't know where to get the strength, and suddenly crawled to Nameless's side, picked up Nameless's upper body with great difficulty, sat on the ground, and leaned his head in his arms.
"Master, what Uncle Shi said is true?" Nameless leaned on the support of Wuhua, spit out a mouthful of blood, and there was a large bloodstain on the Taoist robe on his chest, and his eyes stared blankly at his master.
"Not bad." Daoist Duomeng was silent for a while, and the whole person seemed to be a little older, but he answered simply.
"I don't know, I don't know what Master is going to do next?"
"How? Hehe...... What is the purpose of so many years of penance in the deep mountains as a teacher? What are you trying to do with me, the so-called junior and younger brother, for so many years? Of course, it's for the path to immortality. With this water-sheltering pearl, I can carefully deduce that if I really still get nothing, with this pearl, where can I not go to the great rivers of this world and the boundless sea? The long road of cultivating immortals, since there is no way to go to heaven, I will go down to the sea to find it, I believe I will be able to find it, because the ghost valley ancestor has already given me a hint in a dream, otherwise how would I have come here sixteen years ago and saw this water-avoiding pearl. However, it's all you, it's all your fault, and by chance, you were recognized by this water-avoiding pearl, and you had to wait for another 16 years as a teacher. ”
"Hahaha...... Senior brother is really funny, this nameless was just a baby in swaddling clothes, but somehow he was injured by this wild monkey in the mountains, and the blood that flowed out happened to be contaminated with the water-proof beads that somehow appeared on his chest. Back then, an ignorant child was guilty in the eyes of his senior brother, hahaha...... Senior brother is really worthy of being a person who has seen the avenue. ”
"It's rainy, why don't you say much, what's the point of exposing each other's ugliness and ridiculing each other in front of these two juniors. You and I are both 170 or 80 years old this year, and we may not even have forgotten the specific age, and even our original names may be too vague to remember. But we have always used the many dreams and rains that you and I took when we were hiding from the pursuit and killing, even if we later succeeded in cultivating and put on this Taoist robe, when we walked in this world, the self-proclaimed Dao name still used these dreams and rain. The reason why there are these two names is because during that time I was seriously injured and always had nightmares, dreaming of being chased and killed, and it was rainy and rainy in the Guigu Mountain during that time, and it was you who carried me on my back in the vast deep mountains, walking with difficulty deep and shallow. Later, when you thought of giving yourself a pseudonym in case you needed it, you said, General, you have been dreaming a lot lately, so let's call it a dream; I said, you kid walked on this mountain road with me on his back, it was difficult to walk, but this god still refused to give you a good way to walk, and it rained all the time, so you can call it rainy. In the early years, we followed King Chuang, although at the beginning we all joined the army with the heart of asking for the people's life and fought hard for it, but later we burned, killed and looted, did we do less bad things? But now that I think about it, all of this is the best arrangement of fate. Back then, we were able to immortalize, and we inadvertently obtained those long-lost true cultivation methods and those immortal jade yuan stones, which God wanted us to attain the Great Dao of Enlightenment, which was extraordinary. If you don't take it, you will be blamed for it. So no one wants to stop me, whoever stands in my way to ascending to immortality will die and be wiped out. ”
"Hehe......" Rainy Old Dao chuckled sadly: "It's a shame that the general still remembers these old things." Over the years, sometimes I wake up at night and think to myself, it's better to be killed back then, the longer I live in this world, the more afraid I will be of death. Cultivating those Dao Methods, although my realm is far inferior to yours, this lifespan has indeed been truly extended. People, even if they have cultivated some immortal methods, but this heart has already been broken, what is the use? For the sake of this position of the Lord, I have worked hard and lonely, and I always look like a superior person in front of others, and only in the dead of night do I dare to think about the evil I have done. Senior brother, general, tell me, can people like you and me still become immortals? ”
"Since ancient times, the king has been defeated, killing one person is a thief, killing tens of millions of people is a hero, not to mention that you and I are going to fight for our lives."
"In this way, senior brother must get this water-repellent bead. You must know that this bead disappeared after recognizing your apprentice as the master, and over the years, although his cultivation is not high, there is a place in his body that we have repeatedly probed with our divine sense but have not found it, and it must have received some nourishment. If you want to get this bead now, you can either cast a spell to erase the mark of the original owner on it, or you will kill the original owner. I wonder how the senior brother will choose? ”
"Even if I don't kill him, if he doesn't die, he will be useless. This water-repellent bead should belong to the treasure of the immortal family, although he recognized him as the master back then, but now it seems that he has not been able to refine, and he has coexisted with it for so many years, and now he has lost it, there will always be some bad effects. You don't have to worry about this, for the sake of the year, you should take your female apprentice down the mountain first. Originally, a few of you here today were going to die, but now it's over. Heaven has the virtue of a good life, and after I took this water-repellent droplet, I will never appear in this worldly world again, and I am not afraid that you will reveal these secrets. ”
"Hehehe......" Duoyu Lao Dao smiled bitterly: "I want to thank my senior brother for not killing." Anyway, your cultivation is far better than mine, and I am far from being your opponent. Thinking about it, this is to be regarded as repaying me for saving you back then, and you may be passers-by or even mortal enemies when you meet in the future. Forget it, let's get by. If there is no flower, you can go down the mountain with the teacher. ”
"No, I don't, you, you are not my master, you killed the old master, the old master is such a good and kind person, you actually had the heart to kill him, and, and threw the body in the East China Sea, the old master, the poor old master must have no bones. I, I want to be with the nameless brother, he is so pitiful, as pitiful as me, he was abandoned by his father and mother since he was a child, and he met a master like you again. Hmph, hmph, hmph, woo......" Wuhua said and howled loudly at the end.
"You, you little girl...... Well, that's it, it's up to you. I went down the mountain for the teacher. The rainy road chief flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked slowly towards the cave. No one noticed that between the flicking of the sleeves of the robe and the closing of it, there was a burst of colorless and odorless mist gas quietly emitting.
