“...... He's dead? ”

"Dead."

"How did you die?"

"End of life...... Straight to bed. ”

“......”

The atmosphere was a little silent, Lu Hanjiang and Cai Wei both closed their mouths and did not speak, the Great Elder seemed to be reminiscing about the past, her gaze drifted away a little bit along the afterglow of the setting sun, until the evening breeze brought the coolness of early spring, she let out a long sigh, as if relieved, as if sad.

"What did your master say before he died?" The Great Elder asked softly, as if there was a hint of hope in his words.

Lu Hanjiang raised his eyebrows, lowered his head and said, "Well, Master asked me to say hello to the elders." ”

This is talking nonsense with his eyes open, he estimated that when Bei Mingzi died, he should have scolded the emperor for being despicable, but compared to such an embarrassing ugliness, the ending that Lu Hanjiang wrote for him was better.

After hearing this, the Great Elder was silent for a long time, and only after a long time did he say, "The old body understands, you can come with me." ”

After that, the Great Elder took the first step and walked towards the stairs behind the altar, but Cai Wei hesitated when he saw it: "Great Elder, isn't it stipulated in the clan that outsiders are not allowed to enter the New Year's Room......

"You come too," the Great Elder stopped, turned around and said, "Since you are an apprentice of the Northern Underworld, then you are not considered an outsider." ”

"This ......"

Lu Hanjiang shrugged his shoulders and followed the Great Elder with Cai Wei, and heard her ask on the way: "That old guy has gone, and now the Loose Sect should be in charge of you, right?" ”

"Sort of." Lu Hanjiang said with a smile, and before he could justify himself, he added: "After the first master left, the disciples scattered away, and now I am the only one left." ”

Hearing this, the Great Elder was not too surprised, and it seemed that she was also expecting it, she said: "Heaven's will is like this, since your master is obsessed with taking that path, there will be such an ending after all." ”

Lu Hanjiang asked pointedly: "The Ancestor has his own considerations, what does the Great Elder mean by this?" ”

"Boy, you don't have to hide anything from the old body, since your master has asked you to come here to look for me, I'm afraid you've already tried that method, right?"

The Great Elder sighed, and his tone was quiet: "Asking for immortals asked, in order to seek longevity, I am afraid that I will die unrestlessly." ”

From the halfway point, Cai Wei didn't understand at all, what immortality, what immortal, she stared at the big eyes for unknown reasons, it seemed that it was the first time she heard the great elder say such a thing.

Lu Hanjiang was better, he just secretly observed and imitated the expression of the Great Elder, and said softly: "The Great Elder guessed well, the Ancestor has tried that method, but it was unsuccessful. ”

"That's natural."

Several people followed the spiral staircase to the bottom of the altar, and the further they went, the darker the surroundings became, and the Great Elder's expression slowly disappeared into the shadows, making it impossible to see clearly, and a secret that was sealed in the past was slowly revealed by her-

"A thousand years ago, there was a sage who calculated the jade in the world, and your master finally got the jade, so naturally he would not let it go in vain, but it is a pity that they can't decipher the secrets on it, which is a text inherited from ancient times, and now there are few people in the world who recognize it, that is, the old body, and they also know nothing."

As if remembering something, the Great Elder chuckled and said, "Back then, your master begged the old man to teach him this method of interpretation, and the old man was relieved, but in the end, he did something bad with good intentions, causing him to end up like this." ”

Listening to the words of the Great Elder talking to himself, Lu Hanjiang didn't comment on anything, he secretly thought about the meaning of his words, there are not so many coincidences in the world, I am afraid that the method of immortality sought by the two groups of people of the Loose Sect and the Hundred Poison Weng is the same.

The secret method of the Xiaoyao Sect comes from the records on the jade outside the sky, but according to the Great Elder, that kind of text is ancient and mysterious, and no one has been able to fully interpret it, that is to say, it is likely that the Xiaoyao Sect itself solved the mystery wrongly, so it studied the Seven Star Heavenly Destiny Technique that relies on sucking the blood of the closest relatives.

Thinking about it, a glimmer of light appeared in front of him, Lu Hanjiang raised his eyes and saw that many fluorescent flowers and plants appeared on both sides of the road, from sparse to dense, until the round platform at the end was covered by a sea of fluorescent.

The Great Elder led the two of them to this place known as the Sui Yin Room, where in the fluorescent package, there was a stone round platform in the center of the eyes, on which was a unique white jade statue.

The lower part of the statue is a clear spring like a waterhole, and the upper part is composed of the upper body of two women, the size of a real person, the woman on the left is dressed in cloudy silk, and the woman on the right is a set of star-colored robes, which are obviously made of white jade, but the eyes are very bright, and the spirit is flying, as if she is a living person.

The woman on the left has crooked eyebrows and eyes, looking forward to Shenfei, lively and cute with a bit of eccentric taste, and the woman on the right has half-open eyes, as if she is sad, and the uneven frowning eyebrows look sad and tactful, which is distressing.

For a moment, Lu Hanjiang felt that the two women seemed to be familiar, but after a flash, he no longer felt this way, it was just an illusion.

Then he took a closer look, there were a few special places on the two women's bodies, or the ornaments on their necks, or the jade on the top of their heads, but the most conspicuous place was that they each stretched out one hand with ten fingers interlocked, very intimate, and the other hand stretched out to the left and right ends respectively, the woman on the left held a lamp, but the woman on the right was empty.

At first glance, he only felt that this statue was exquisite and abnormal, but it seemed that something was missing, Lu Hanjiang stared at the empty palm of the woman on the right, thoughtful.

Cai Wei sensed what his gaze was pointing at, so she explained to him in a low voice: "Before the Holy Spirit Gu Worm was stolen by the Xuehua Palace, it was stored here. ”

"I see." A hint of realization flashed in Lu Hanjiang's eyes.

The Great Elder came to the statue, turned to look at Lu Hanjiang and said: "Back then, the old man taught your master the way to interpret the ancient texts, but let him end up like that, this method of immortality is a harmful thing, the old body was unwilling to continue to pass on this secret, but you still came, it can be seen that the will of heaven is so." ”

In the past, with a long sigh being put down, the Great Elder's gaze gradually became clear, she quietly looked at Lu Hanjiang, and said, "You answer the old body, do you believe that there is a way to live forever in this world?" ”

"I don't believe it." Lu Hanjiang's answer had never changed, and the mockery in his eyes became even worse as the Great Elder's words came out.

The Great Elder stared at his face for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "It's a good boy." ”

So she asked, "Then do you want to know what the method of immortality passed down by our ancestors is?" ”

"Of course."

Lu Hanjiang did not hesitate in this answer, he said calmly: "If I say immortality, I naturally don't believe it, but since so many people are willing to believe it, it must be an extremely interesting thing, and I naturally don't want to miss it." ”

"Well, after all, it is your master's dying request."

The Great Elder turned to look at the statue and spoke slowly: "A thousand years ago, the sage calculated the time when something beyond the heavens would come into the world, and predicted that after a thousand years, the opportunity for immortality would appear, so he followed the way of heaven and handed over the seven treasures needed for immortality to the seven bloodlines to pass it down......
