"Old friend, visit me?"

The old Taoist priest subconsciously wanted to take a sip of tea, but found that the teapot in his hand was empty, shook his head and smiled, met the eyes of the middle-aged Taoist priest, and asked: "Although there are few of my old friends left, they are all your elders, why don't you welcome them in?"

“......”

The middle-aged Taoist priest who was called by him as a teacher frowned, and said with an embarrassed face: "Master, I know all your old friends, but this Taoist outside...... I've never seen it, and it's ......"

"He doesn't look like your old friend, either. ”

"Huh?"

The old Taoist priest sighed lightly and asked, "Why not?"

"Although the man is dignified, look at his appearance...... He seems to be under forty years old. The middle-aged Taoist priest replied.

"Less than forty?"

The old Taoist priest put the empty teapot in his hand on the stone table beside him, and stared at the apprentice in front of him, Li Shixing, who was also the current master of the True Martial Arts Temple, revealing the same puzzled look as him.

He remembered very well that since he passed on the position of the master to his apprentice, in the past twenty years, most of the time he has stayed in the True Martial Arts, almost never going far away, and ......

He is now nearing his old age, and there are few old friends who know him well, and the rest of them are all about the same age as him.

Although he would guide them in the mountains a few years ago when there were many tourists on the mountain, he did not encounter any old friends because of this, so he ......

Now the Taoist outside the door, who has not yet reached the age of not being confused, but calls him his old friend, can't help but make him wonder.

"Master, that person is still waiting outside the door, am I welcome him in, or am I ......?"

Li Shixing saw the old Taoist priest slumped on the stone chair for a long time, and couldn't help but open his mouth to inquire.

“......”

The old Taoist priest came back to his senses, thought for a moment, and replied: "That Taoist may have something to look for me, and it is not easy for him to climb the mountain in the early morning, so you can go and bring him over." ”

"Hmm. ”

Li Shixing nodded lightly, and was about to turn around and go out, but at this moment......

"No need to welcome you, I'm already here. ”

Just as he was about to turn around, a loud voice full of energy suddenly came, and then a sound of footsteps was heard.

The master and apprentice looked sideways, and saw a high Daodao person walking into the door, this person was dressed in a azure robe, black hair like satin, with a three-inch short beard, a slight smile at the corner of his eyebrows, and a feeling like a spring breeze.

"Dao Chief, you ......"

Li Shixing saw that he didn't tell him, he looked a little displeased, and was about to ask out loud, but as soon as he blurted out, he heard the voice of the master next to him coming into his ears.

"Mentoring ......"

After closing his mouth, he looked sideways, only to see Master Jingyun, who had a white beard, got up and waved his hand at him, and said with a smile: "Since this Dao Master has already heard the noise, it also saves you the trouble of running again." ”

"It seems that this Taoist chief does have something to ask me about, so I'll talk to him first......"

As he was talking, the old Taoist Jingyun's eyes moved slightly, looked at the high Taoist priest, and said, "You go down first." ”

"Hmm. ”

Li Shixing didn't say much, just nodded lightly in response, and after one last glance at the short-bearded man, he turned around and walked out of the door, and when he went out, he easily covered the two red lacquered wooden doors again.

After he left, Jingyun Lao Dao carefully glanced up and down at the person standing in front of him, pointed to the empty seat on the side of the stone table, and smiled, "Please take a seat." ”

"Thank you ......"

Chen Ze stroked his short beard, nodded in greeting, and took a few steps forward to sit down.

"This fellow ......"

Seeing him sit down, Jingyun Lao Dao showed a kind smile on his face, and after raising his eyes to meet his gaze, he asked out loud: "I don't know if it is convenient to tell Lao Dao your name and number, where is the immortal residence?"

"The Pure Cloud Dao is very polite......"

The middle-aged Taoist transformed by Chen Ze smiled, waved his hand slightly, and replied: "My name is Gu Dao, and the place of cultivation is a nameless barren mountain, not a fairy dwelling. ”

"Gu Dao me, nameless barren mountain?"

When Jingyun Lao Dao heard this unfamiliar name and his simple answer, he couldn't help but wonder a little more in his heart.

After thinking about it for a while, he followed and asked with a smile: "Gu Daochang, it seems that Lao Dao has never met you in his life, let alone acquaintance, I don't know why you said to my apprentice that you were my old friend?"

"You and I have met once, I remember it clearly, but you ......"

After a pause, Chen Ze suddenly shook his head and chuckled: "Maybe I have forgotten it a long time ago, or maybe I ...... Never remembered. ”

"This ......"

Hearing this, Jingyun Lao Dao couldn't help but think of something, and asked, "Daoist Gu, are you a tourist who came to climb the mountain when Wudang had not closed the mountain a few years ago?"

“......”

Chen Ze smiled faintly, shook his head, and did not open his mouth to answer.

"Not a tourist from previous years, that's ......"

Seeing that Chen Ze didn't answer, Jingyun Lao Dao didn't immediately ask again, but when he saw his slightly intoxicating smile, he couldn't help but have some inexplicable weird feelings in his heart for a while.

After a while, he asked again: "Then Daoist Gu went up the mountain to visit Lao Dao early this morning, but what is there to discuss?"

"It's not a big deal......

Chen Ze shook his head, thinking about the words that had already been arranged in his heart, and replied, "I just came here this time to ask you something, and I just happened to take advantage of this...... Come back and look at this Wudang real martial arts view, but there is still the same scene I saw in the past. ”

As soon as he spoke, he suddenly got up and looked around at the courtyard and the surrounding palaces, and his eyes showed a look of nostalgia.

"That ......"

"Pure Cloud Road Long ......"

Seeing his expression, Jingyun Lao Dao just wanted to open his mouth to ask again, but he was quickly interrupted before he could speak.

He saw that the Taoist named Gu Dao in front of him stared at him, and there seemed to be a light in his eyes, and then he immediately lowered his head and stared at him.

"Pure Cloud Road Long ......"

Chen Ze waited for his lips to close, his face was stunned, he sat down on the stone bench again with his robe, and asked loudly: "I think you should have a deep understanding of the reappearance of the immortal dao in the land of China and the frequent occurrence of immortal fate, right?"

"Uh......"

After Jingyun Lao Dao came back to his senses, he glanced at Chen Ze again, thinking of what he felt just now and what he said now, he seemed to have vaguely guessed something, and said with a slight bow: "This is nature." ”

"In that case......

Chen Ze stared straight at him, his tone suddenly changed, and he said in a deep voice: "Then why do I see that only your apprentice can practice in this True Martial Arts?"

“......”

Hearing these words of accountability, Jingyun Old Dao couldn't help but condense, and a little dissatisfaction suddenly appeared in his heart, and said: "Daoist Gu, since you came to ask me about this, I think you should also be the cultivator who has obtained the immortal fate, but ......"

"I'm a little older than you, I don't know what you mean by this general accountability?"

"Dao Leader doesn't have to make a fuss, you'll understand later. ”

Chen Ze's mental power moved slightly, instantly soothed his emotions, and reached out and said, "Can you answer my question just now?"

"Hmmm......"

Jingyun Lao Dao only felt that the dissatisfaction in his heart disappeared inexplicably, and nodded: "Gu Daochang, you and I should be very clear that the inheritance of the Dao system and the succession of the torch have been the top priority of the palaces in all parts of this gate since ancient times, and now, it should be even more so when it coincides with the reappearance of the Huaxia Immortal Dao, but, alas, ......"

As he was talking, he suddenly let out a long sigh, shook his head, and said, "I don't know if it's really because I and the disciples of this True Martial Sect have a lack of opportunity and a shallow relationship, or what? ”

"When the fairy palace was born the year before last, Lao Dao I cheekily went out of the only two distant doors in the past 20 years, but in the end, I could only watch others meet the immortal fate and ...... Still nothing. ”

"It is said that the destiny of heaven can be known in life at fifty, and it is said that the court hears the truth, and it is okay to die at night......"

Jingyun Lao Dao suddenly raised his head to look at the clouds in the sky, his whole body trembled slightly, and his lips and teeth opened slightly, "However, Lao Dao has not known where he is in his life, and how can he talk about knowing the destiny of heaven and gaining immortality......

"A hundred years of life, when you are about to die, even if the old way is unwilling in every way, what is the use?"
