In the eyes of ordinary mortals in the world, Xinhua Peak may be just a strange mountain scenery, plus a famous Luoxia Academy, so it attracted literati and visitors to come here, and left countless popular poems between the mountains and tsunamis, or let many scholars who are eager to learn come here to study and govern the scriptures.

But they can only be like this, stopping halfway through this mountain and staying in the world.

And another staircase on Xinhua Peak that is invisible to mortals, has been quietly circling around Xinhua Peak for thousands of years, never disappeared, as long as you step on it, you can go up to the peak, even if you are a mortal, you will step into the threshold of cultivation and immortality with one foot.

There are not many cultivators in the world, and because the number of mortals in the world is extremely large, they are also limited by all parties, lest the source of the Tao fall into his hands. For example, there are only 100 places in Luoxia Continent every thousand years, and the five sects located on Luoxia Continent are given to the monks of each sect when they travel abroad, and from time to time they will bring the seeds of cultivation with their intentions, and then register them in the roster of Luoxia Academy on the top of Xinhua Peak, and then cross out the quota occupied by a sect, and then bring the seeds of cultivation back to their own sects, and finally include them in the genealogy of the Patriarch Hall, which is a shortcut for mortals in the world to enter these so-called orthodox sources of the world.

The other is the ladder, the ladder has existed in the world for 10,000 years, ten continents in the world, each continent has a peak, a ladder and a academy, which is determined by heaven. In the world for eternity, if no one is guided, only a very small number of people can get a glimpse of the true face, but if you step on it, you are destined to be a person in my way, and there must be a genus of the three thousand avenues, and it does not occupy the number of the hundred places stipulated in it.

At this moment, Lu Xiao on the ladder of Xinhua Peak had already sat up, his palm rubbing the vicissitudes of stone wall beside him full of knife and axe chisel marks, and from time to time there was a trace of mountain spirit faintly.

In an instant, before Lu Xiao got up, an afterimage passed by Lu Xiao in just a moment, and then disappeared, followed by a sound of rapid breaking through the sky from the sky. Lu Xiao still saw it at that glance, just now it was a cultivator in a plain white robe, taking a young child with a sword, sweeping towards the peak, this scene did not make Lu Xiao envious, Lu Xiao was more appreciative of the extremely chic style of sword cultivation just now.

After the sword cultivation, Lu Xiao immediately turned around and continued to walk up the ladder step by step.

At this moment, when it is close to evening, there are patches of purple glow in the sky that have begun to spread, and they are constantly coming towards the top of Xinhua Peak, as if this is their home. Luoxia Academy usually doesn't have anyone among them, but every time a sect monk wants to bring the cultivation seeds back, he will still come here according to the ancestral system and register everywhere for future inspection.

A roofless hall, in the center of the Juxia Ding has filled the bottom of the glow, it is very good-looking, but it is not yet the time to harvest, a woman next to the Ding is covered with tulle, only revealing a pair of eyes as crystal as water, the starlight is like that. I saw that she was picking up a wisp of Dingzhong Xia Cai in her hand to check the color, it seemed that the color was acceptable, the woman in a plain cloud water robe nodded lightly, and then her right hand gently patted Juxia Ding, and suddenly the rainbow color in Ding gradually rotated into a vortex, after the tea effort, Ding Zhong Xia Cai was visibly reduced by seven points, but the accuracy of the remaining Xia Cai in Ding was extremely gorgeous, Ambilight, shining in Ding.

The tulle woman turned around and walked down the steps of Juxiading, and a sturdy man with a short figure at the entrance of the main hall was looking out of the door, a pair of azure eyes seemed to be looking at a certain place.

"Do you think the kid can come up?" asked the veiled woman as she walked to the door.

The man replied affirmatively, "That's inevitable!"

"That's why you're waiting for him here, because you already know it in your heart! Why don't you just pick him up directly, wouldn't it be even closer?"

"You have to know that there are some things in this world that are too much!"

"And what did you agree with that man? I can't even say?"

"To each his own according to his needs, as between you and me! The blue-eyed man's eyes shone faintly at this time, and he smiled at the gauzy woman.

The tulle woman immediately stopped talking, and turned to look at Juxia Ding, at this time, there were already wisps of glow from the sky, like silk falling from the sky into Juxia Ding.

Lu Xiao was already a little tired at this time, although he was only walking on the ladder, but the oppressive force on the ladder was still a little unbearable for a mortal. At night, the moonlight hit the climbing ladder, showing coldness, and Lu Xiao's unyielding temperament began to show when the cold mountain wind came to cut the face. Even if his feet were unbearable, Lu Xiao used both hands and feet at the same time, like an ape taking steps, step by step, in short, gritting his teeth and not taking half a step back.

After climbing more than half of the ladders, Lu Xiao only felt that his hands and feet were almost useless, and his whole body seemed to have exhausted his strength, and he was about to fall to the ground at any time, and quietly a trace of Daoyun emerged from the mountain wall, lingering on Lu Xiaozhou's body, Lu Xiao's spirit was shocked in an instant, and his whole body was completely recovered in breathing, even better than before. Lu Xiao, who didn't know why, immediately took a step and rushed up quickly, as if this climbing ladder was just ordinary.

Crouching Tiger Mountain, Lu Cong just woke up, rubbed his eyes, and was still thinking back to the previous dream, dreaming that he was in a warm house, lying in a warm quilt, and there was a big face with a square face embedded in the beam, but he was frightened, and he hurriedly closed his eyes at that time, and then he didn't remember the dream later.

Lu Cong, who was about to sit up by the head of the bed, still wrapped his thin body in the quilt. On the side, who was originally holding his head and napping in the east direction, he saw Lu Cong suddenly sit up, and was about to sit next to Lu Cong with confused eyes.

Lu Cong, who was wrapped in the quilt and only showed his head, saw that this square-faced man was not the person in the dream? Why did he suddenly appear in front of him, so frightened that Lu Cong hurriedly wrapped the quilt more tightly and kept leaning back on the bed.

Dongxiang wiped his face and asked with a smile, "Child, are you better?"

Lu Cong's eyes flickered, and he nodded lightly with fear.

Dongfang saw that Lu Cong seemed to be afraid of himself, and scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, and couldn't think of how to continue with Lu Cong for a while.

Fortunately, the savior came at this time, Wu Niang Zhen didn't push the door and entered, looking at Lu Cong, who was scared, and Dongxiang, who was at a loss on the side, and immediately understood what was going on.

Zhen Bu walked to the side of the bed and beckoned to Lu Cong, who hesitated for a moment and leaned towards this young and beautiful woman with a martial arts spirit. Zhen Bu's fingertips showed a cyan light, lightly tapped Lu Cong's forehead, and then asked, "Do you remember this feeling?"

Lu Cong nodded quickly, this is the feeling, it is very comfortable! Let himself have a few good dreams, thinking of this, the frightened look on Lu Cong's face immediately subsided a lot.

Zhen Bu pointed to the east and said to Lu Cong: "He picked you up from the snow last night, you can survive now, don't be afraid, speaking of which, he is your savior!"

Dongxiang hurriedly tapped his fingers on his chest and smiled.

Lu Cong nodded lightly in the direction of the east at this moment, with an embarrassed smile on his face.

After Lu Cong relaxed, he chatted with Zhen Bu and Dongfang about his previous affairs, especially when he said what happened to his cousin Zhou Shu's family, the two green forest heroes were also indignant, and they couldn't wait to rush to Changshuxuan to give Lu Cong his anger.

Talking, talking, Lu Cong suddenly realized something, and hurriedly asked with some crying: "Two good people, you won't send me back, right?"

Zhen Bu glanced at each other in the east direction, and Zhen Bu replied softly: "Child, don't worry, we won't let you go back to that place of suffering!"

Lu Cong breathed a sigh of relief.

Dongfang asked again: "Then do you have any relatives, is your father and mother still there?"

Speaking of this, Lu Cong's voice was a little lower, and he said with some unstable emotions: "I have never seen my mother since I was born, my father said that when I was born, my mother died, and my father also died a few days ago... ”

Dongfang couldn't bear to ask again for a while, Zhen Bu pondered for a while and said softly: "Then do you have any brothers and sisters?"

Lu Cong pulled a smile on his face, paused and said: "I have an elder brother, his name is Lu Xiao, he is amazing! A few months ago, he said that he was going to study at Luoxia Academy, and there was no news. Speaking of the back, Lu Cong whimpered again.

Zhen didn't want to ask again, and said to the east:

"Hey!"

"What a poor boy. ”

"What then?"

"Now that the child is awake, let's wait for tomorrow! ”

The two then said some amusing words to Lu Cong, which made Lu Cong withdraw from his sadness a little, at least on the surface, Lu Cong was also a lot more relaxed.

Zhen Bu asked, "Kid, do you want something to eat?"

Before Lu Cong could answer, his stomach couldn't wait for a long roar, which made Lu Cong a little embarrassed.

Zhen Bu smiled and said, "Wait a while, Wu Niang will give you those delicious foods!"

After Wu Niang left, Dongxiang and Lu Cong fell into the dilemma of staring at each other again, Lu Cong's little head turned left and right, and then asked, "Good uncle, where am I now?"

Dongxiang smiled on his face and pretended to be mysterious: "You!

Lu Cong was stunned for a while after hearing this, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and hurriedly got into the quilt, this time without even showing his head.

The east direction was also a little confused, looking at the slightly trembling quilt mountain in front of him, thinking left and right, did I say the wrong thing again?

After a stick of incense, Wu Niang Zhen came back with some food, looked at the silent Dongfang and Lu Cong wrapped in the quilt, and asked, "What's wrong?" and then patted Lu Cong, Lu Cong was frightened and hurriedly hid by the wall, Zhen Bu said softly: "Child, I'll bring you food, look at it, it's all delicious!"

Lu Cong, who showed a gap in the quilt, asked hesitantly, "Are you the man-eating bandits that the town said?"

Hearing this, Zhen Bu glanced at the east direction, it would be a mess!

Dongxiang knew that he was wrong, so he had to get up from the side of the bed, go to the chair in the corner, sit down, and pour himself a cup of hot water.

Wu Niang Zhen didn't put the end plate in front of Lu Cong, and said softly: "We used to be refugees from other places, and at that time, no one took us in due to the flood, so in order not to starve to death, we had to go up the mountain and become bandits, but we didn't do anything bad, we just wanted to survive... ”

When Lu Cong was telling their story to Wu Niang, his little hand seemed to inadvertently slip out of the gap in the quilt, and then quickly retracted a piece of pastry into the quilt and began to eat it.

When Wu Niang talked about their elimination of evil households and relief to the victims, Lu Cong listened to it with relish, and asked, "Then what?"

The east direction of the corner smiled, watching Zhen Bu tell Lu Cong the story before going up the mountain, and he became sentimental again.

Ghost Domain, Yama Temple.

The big-headed king of Yama looked at the Jizo King Bodhisattva standing next to the table on the lotus seat, and said in a complaining tone: "Bodhisattva, do you know how I have lived these days, Xiao Wang, I am almost dying of exhaustion here." ”

King Jizo Bodhisattva pinched the Buddha's finger and smiled without answering.

Seeing that the King of Jizo had no intention of intervening to help, the king of Hades had no choice but to say tentatively: "Bodhisattva, that Zhurong is too much of a thing, for the sake of that Raushzi fire robe actually borrowed the hand of heaven to cause this serious sin, Bodhisattva, how can you sit idly by, at least go to Lingshan to talk to the Buddha!"

The Bodhisattva King of the Earth suddenly held a lotus flower in his hand, blooming nine petals, just like the nine shades, and said: "Fei Ye, if I hear it, Zhu Rong's plan is very big, and when there is nothing to do, I have nothing to do." After speaking, the figure of the Jizo King Bodhisattva flashed away.

Only the thoughtful Hades was left.

Heavenly Court Daluo Tian, Seven Treasures Xuantai, there is a banquet here. The wonderful appearance is solemn, the Supreme Emperor Haotian sits on the main seat, the side seat on the side is empty, and the two guests under the seat are drinking the Heavenly Spirit Fairy Dew, talking and laughing.

The restrained Fu Xi raised his glass to Emperor Haotian and asked, "I wonder why His Majesty invited me to wait this time?"

Emperor Haotian raised his glass and said with a smile: "It's good to say, it's good to say, it's really something to discuss with me when I invite the two of you to come this time, but it's not a bad thing." ”

The Suiren clan that loomed in the divine ring was silent, and his son was playing with Emperor Haotian haha.

This time, only the two fathers and sons of the Suiren clan and Fuxi came to the heavens, Nuwa has disappeared in the world since the heavens were mended, and no one can feel her breath, and the harvest and Jumang can't shirk it, so the Suiren clan went with them.

Emperor Haotian suddenly changed his words, and said to the Suiren clan: "There is a matter for me to invite the two of you to come. Now that the world is prosperous, I want to expand the number of people who cultivate the Tao seed in the world, so that the blessings of the Tao can be broadcast to the world. ”

Fu Xi stroked his palms and smiled, looked at Emperor Haotian, and said loudly: "Your Majesty can think like this, it is really a blessing in the world!"

The Suiren clan also smiled and nodded, and then asked, "I wonder how many places Your Majesty wants to expand for the human world?"

Emperor Haotian stretched his finger forward, revealing the number of a hand, and said, "The number of five thousand in a thousand years." ”

Fu Xi was stunned for a moment, glanced at the Suiren clan, and then suddenly smiled, and said to Emperor Haotian: "The number of five thousand in one continent, and fifty thousand in ten continents! Your Majesty is so courageous! I have thanked Your Majesty in advance for all living beings in the world."

Emperor Haotian glanced at Fu Xi deeply, and his face showed displeasure, but he knew that it was not easy to say it now, so he had to respond with a smile: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”

The Suiren clan raised his glass to Emperor Haotian and asked again, "Your Majesty really has nothing else to do?"

Emperor Haotian was sitting on the throne, the treasure was solemn, and he said in an unkind tone: "It's gone!

Fu Xi laughed and said, "Bei Shu and Ju Mang have traveled together in the world earlier, and when Your Majesty gives the order, I can't tell them." ”

"I see, I have also traveled to the world for 3,000 years, and now I think it is just a glimpse of the long years. Emperor Haotian laughed to himself.

After the banquet, when the Suiren clan and Fu Xi went down to earth, Fu Xi asked, "Father, why is Haotian so generous at this time?"

Suiren thought for a while and said: "With Haotian's character, it must not be without intentions, but as long as he gives it for nothing, we dare to take it, anyway, it is not a bad thing for the world." When I thought of the way he looked deflated just now, it was really a coke! 5,000 to 50,000 was really unexpected!"

Fu Xi also laughed: "Father, this time I just took a small advantage here in Haotian." For a long time, the heavenly court has been powerful, and it wants to act domineeringly, making it impossible to find it in the world. But Zhu Rong, Xuan Ming and others now have their own thoughts, Haotian naturally has to guard against them, then the best way is naturally to draw strength from the world, and then cultivate them into their own henchmen, Haotian is just killing two birds with one stone, and by the way, he also sold us a face. ”

The Suiren clan nodded, and as soon as Fu Xi said, he suddenly remembered something again, so he said to Fu Xi: "I still have to go to Lingshan, you go back first!"

Fu Xi nodded yes, and then the two parted ways.

Somewhere at the end of the mountains and seas, the purple-clothed Taoist and a black-robed man were silent in the air, the purple-clothed Taoist had a look of anger on his face, and disappeared directly after a wave of his sleeves, but the black-robed man was reluctant to leave for a long time, and finally could only sigh.

The night of Crouching Tiger Mountain is like water, Lu Cong listened to the story that Wu Niang Zhen didn't tell, and the quilt that was originally tightly grasped was unconsciously opened, Lu Cong looked down and saw that the pastries in front of him were almost eaten, and the square-faced man in the corner didn't look so terrible at the moment, and even looked a little cute, of course, the best thing was Wu Niang Zhen sitting in front of him.

Lu Cong whispered to Zhen Bu: "Wu Niang, I... Can I stay here?"

Zhen Bu touched Lu Cong's little head, and said softly: "Whether you can stay here or not depends on what everyone says tomorrow!"

Lu Cong's eyes immediately darkened, he lowered his head, picked his toes, and thought of Lu Xiao in his heart, and his nose was sour.

Lu Xiao is still walking like flying at the moment, and in two laps, he can reach the top and go to Luoxia Academy.

The ordinary man with a short figure showed a strange brilliance in his eyes, and said softly: "It is worthy of being the reincarnation, but how can you get the recognition of this mountain peak Daoyun? ”

The tulle woman also looked surprised, and said unconsciously in her mouth: "Can reincarnation still be blessed by heaven?"

The man next to him shook his head and smiled: "Heavenly Dao protection, Heavenly Dao will not protect anyone, Heavenly Dao will only maintain this world to move forward according to its trajectory, and then eliminate the people who destroy the trajectory." ”

The tulle woman asked again, "Then why is Zhu Rong not afraid of the way of heaven?"

The man's tone suddenly became heavier, and he said coldly: "Zhu Rong is bold, intending to consolidate himself with the power of the Heavenly Dao, and even wants to... In this way, the Tao is invisible. Ten thousand years ago, he had already fallen into the devil on this path, and if he continued like this, he would be eaten up sooner or later. ”

The tulle woman sneered: "No matter how bold Zhu Rong is, can he compare to Haotian stealing the throne?"

The man was silent, and glanced at Tiannan, as if there was a murderous aura.
