The torrential rain was majestic, and countless water droplets hit the tiles, making a dense sound of dripping and clattering. Through the holes in the roof, water droplets continued to drip down in the ruined temple.

The ruined temple could not see its fingers, and the only moonlight it had was also hidden by the torrential rain. In addition to the sound of the rain, the discerning can hear birds jumping on the beams of houses sheltered from the rain, rats running in the corners, and insects gnawing on rotten wood......

Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside, and the crackling of stepping into puddles of water drowned out the sound of torrential rain. A short figure ran in the torrential rain, stumbled up the steps of the Taoist temple, and drilled into the Taoist temple in one go.

In doing so, he also broke into the sight of an unknown being.

It was a ten-year-old child, coarse and linen, wet all over, with a small, thin face full of fear. As soon as the child entered the door, he closed the door and pressed his body against the door, as if there was some flood beast outside.

A huge figure came out of the forest on a rainy night, and the strong smell of blood came from afar through the torrential rain.

The body of a pig-headed dog is huge, with black hair, hard thorns, and red eyes, dragging a huge belly. The belly seemed to be filled with water, and every step produced a violent shaking, and from time to time there were human marks on the belly.

Spirits swirled above the spears on their backs, letting out sharp and undeniable cries.

Devouring people into the belly, refining the resentment soul in the back sores, the filth of the land, and the resentment of the people, it is for the evil relics.

The emotions that have been mysteriously existed for many years have finally fluctuated a little, and it is a wonder why such a monster appeared.

There are many kinds of monsters, and they generally refer to animals with intelligence and cultivation. A long time ago, today's youkai were called spirit animals, and at that time there was no division between humans and demons, and humans were just one of many living beings. Later, due to various reasons, the division between demons began to appear, and the hostility and hatred between the two sides gradually deepened.

The real youkai is the one in front of you, an evil born of filth. Cruel and cruel without intelligence, seeing people killing, seeing demons killing demons.

The evil legacy is a kind of evil, and some people say that the evil legacy is out of chaos in the world.

A long, long time ago, when he had just stepped into the cultivation world, he thought it was a very powerful evil. Later, I figured out that the most powerful evil legacy was only the Jindan period, and it was said that the evil legacy was only because it needed troubled times to be born.

In a peaceful and prosperous era, few evil cults were born.

Evil relics, man-made disasters.

Why is there a bad legacy?

He wondered so much that it stands to reason that there should be a man who should be clear in heaven and earth. Maybe it's because when manpower is poor, there will always be places that you can't see.

As he pondered, the monster with the body of a pig-headed dog was already standing in front of the gate, and its black-haired claws suddenly fell, instantly shattering countless pieces of the already rotten wooden door.

The child's body flew upside down, and some sawdust stabbed into his face, falling heavily to the ground.

A huge pig's face poked in from the outside, and there was a hint of playfulness in its red eyes. Evil relics have no intelligence, but their nature is evil, so they have no way to torture and kill living beings.

Many people are swallowed by it and will not die in the first place. It usually takes about a minute for the nasal passages to be stuffed with foul-smelling viscous liquid, and eventually suffocated to death.

The child's pupils were filled with tears and fear, and he covered his mouth and nose tightly, trying his best not to make a sound.

The mysterious existence intends to make a move, this is not the first person he has met since he entered the Tao, nor is it the first person he has gradually found to see. But he was the first person in danger, and he was never stingy with his hands.

It's just that I'm a little sluggish, and I should have made a move just now.

"Close your eyes."

Suddenly, a hoarse voice came into his ears, the tone was a little strange, and the child could only barely hear what the other party meant.

This is the monk's accent, a language that has not changed for thousands of years. It is different from the language of mortals who speak one language ten miles apart, or whose accent changes after hundreds of years.

The child did not heed the voice, perhaps because he was afraid, or perhaps because he did not react. The unknown being could only protect his eyes, lest he be blinded by his own thunder light.

The darkness behind him bloomed with endless brilliance, accompanied by a thunderclap, and the thunder instantly drowned the monster in front of him. Rushing straight into the dark clouds in the sky, the torrential rain of thousands of miles was instantly washed away by thunder, revealing the white jade plate in the sky again.

The last few drops of rain fell, and a gentle breeze blew.

The fairy with moonlight like a slender woman walked into the Taoist temple unhurriedly, reflecting everything here.

A dilapidated Taoist temple, weeds grew in the cracks of the stone bricks on the ground, stools and chairs were gnawed into slag, and the right corner collapsed slightly.

A huge rock, perhaps as a result of a landslide, smashed into the house and became a new point of support.

In the midst of the collapsed ruins, a figure sat in it, the broken beams weighing on him, weeds and flowers coiling. None of the eyes were deep and bright, like the night sky in the sky.

The child was stunned for a moment, and then endured the pain, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Thank you immortals for saving your life, thank you immortals for saving your life." ”

In his simple worldview, those who can do what ordinary people can't are immortals.

"You...... Come here, and the poor road will treat your injuries. ”

When the child heard this, he quickly got up and walked towards the man sitting in the ruins, only to see that the other man stretched out a hand from the pile of rotten wood and dirt and lightly touched his forehead. The warmth spread to the center of the eyebrows, all the cold disappeared, and the broken bones healed in an instant.

Such a magical scene further confirmed the identity of the immortals.

"Child, what day is it tonight?"

"Jing, the adults in the village said."

"Jing?"

The man's face showed a little sigh, but he didn't expect that just one practice had changed the dynasty.

"There is no calendar in the mountains, and I don't know how the cold will be, so I don't know what happened to the old people at this time?"

The man came out of the rotten wood and dirt, dressed in a cyan robe, with a face that was unkempt and disheveled, and his face looked less than thirty. If it weren't for his deep eyes, whoever saw him would think he was a wild man.

He waved his hand lightly, and all the mud on his body turned into a breeze. This wind carried a little desolation, a little cold, and a little astringent, completely taking away his thousand years of cultivation.

That year, he went up the mountain to discuss with his friends, believing that true love is comparable to all the laws of the world. If a monk cultivates his mind and cultivates himself, if he is no match for external objects, how can he talk about cultivation? It's not that he has much power, but that he firmly believes that his Dao heart is invincible to the Heavenly Sword.

Li Changsheng ascended the Heavenly Sword Peak with great ambition and faced the supreme sword and the old man. Her face was no longer the same as before, only a cold sword and murderous aura remained. They collided with Dao hearts and intersected with their lives, and later Li Changsheng lost, and he lost very completely.

After the defeat, he was also affected by that sword intent and stepped into the Taishang forgetfulness. thought that this was the road to heaven, and this was the immortality he wanted.

It's a pity that it's not, and in the end, Taishang lost to himself.

My affection is better than the heavenly sword,

"After two thousand years of seeking the Tao, everything will eventually come to fruition."

Shaohua is white-headed, but in an instant, what is becoming an immortal, and what is detachment?

The mountain and wild Taoist named Li Changsheng woke up like a dream, or fear, or hesitation, or attachment to Hongchen, he escaped the Tao and jumped out of the Taishang forgetfulness.

"Is that really good?" The Taoist asks himself, one step shorter, he can join the Tao, be on par with the sky, and live with heaven and earth.

"That's great, I'm going to win this time."

With a slight smile on his face, he stepped out of the broken temple by himself, and at this moment the dark clouds dispersed and there were no clouds, the moon was like a silver plate, and the sky was like a hanging realm.

The child behind him hurriedly chased after him, knelt on the ground and prayed, "Ask the immortals to save their lives, my village will be flooded. The Dragon Lord wanted to build a palace in our place, so he flooded our village. My mom and dad are now swept away by the flood."

The child's speech was slurred and his expression was not clear, but Li Changsheng could still guess one or two.

If the flood washes away, you shouldn't be able to survive, but you can go and see it.

Li Changsheng asked, "Where is your home?" ”

"Ten miles over there, my house is at the entrance of the village... Ahhh

In the middle of the child's words, suddenly a white cloud lifted the two up, and he was so frightened that he screamed again and again. And Li Changsheng didn't pay attention to this, he could only think about one thing now, and he didn't have the spare energy to take into account a child's emotions.

His emotions were like a parched ocean, slowly and sluggishly recovering. But from the east of the hundred rivers to the sea, there will always be a day when it will be full.

The white clouds rose into the air and flew into the distance.

The earth retreated rapidly, and in an instant they were ten miles away, and there was no earth under their feet, let alone a village, only a rushing flood.

In the flood, the shrimp soldiers and crabs kept surging, and they held weapons with their teeth and claws. A demonic aura drove the flood rampant, threatening to turn the place into a lake. And the people who originally lived here have disappeared in the rushing water, perhaps becoming the water demon's meal, or perhaps being washed away into the distance.

"Daddy! Mother!!! ”

Seeing this, the child could not bear to collapse on his knees, poking his head out of the clouds and hissing and screaming. People know that it is irretrievable, but they still want to exchange important things through sound.

Li Changsheng's eyes were still calm, and it was difficult to generate a trace of anger. If it was the former self, it might be angry, but not now. He needs to be emotionally intense to cut off the forgetfulness of Taishang, and use altruistic trivial things to find the seven emotions and six desires.

"Immortals! Immortals! Please save my mom and dad, they're in the water, they're in the water! ”

The child turned his head and began to kowtow to Li Changsheng again, Li Changsheng lowered his head slightly and looked down at the child without saying any words of comfort, just coldly waking up the other party.

"Your father and mother are dead."

"No"

The child shook his head and wanted to deny it, but as soon as his head turned halfway, Li Changsheng said again: "I have calculated, there is no life in ten deaths, at least I don't have the ability to bring people back to life." The three souls and six spirits of mortals will be shattered in just a few seconds, and they will completely fall into Lethe after seven days. ”

"Maybe there is reincarnation in the world, but after reincarnation, it will no longer be your father."

Li Changsheng's words were as cold as his voice, extinguishing the illusions of this ten-year-old child, and leaving no room to show him that it was the truth. The child could only kneel on the ground, constantly wiping away tears, and the sadness of others could not make Li Changsheng empathize.

But Li Changsheng understood what to do now.

He put his hand on the child's head, slightly let the other party look up at him, and asked in a flat and cold tone: "Killing pays for life, can you forget your worries?" ”

The child Mu Ne nodded, not knowing if he understood Li Changsheng's words.

"Okay, wait for the poor road to kill all the demons in a river."

You have to make a promise, and the killing intent is strong.

Li Changsheng raised his head slightly, his sleeves waved, thousands of rivers and mountains were in his heart, and the avenue of heaven and earth was in his palm.

A green leaf fell into the fingertips and was thrown into the rushing flood. The green leaves seem to be falling, but in fact they are like meteors falling, and they fall into the flood in an instant.

The green leaves are tiny, but they can be powerful.

All the creatures in the river only felt their hearts sink, and before they could react to flee, the unparalleled coercion instantly crushed all the monsters to the bottom of the river. That is too forgetful and supreme sword intent, even if it doesn't need substantial coercion, it can scare many monsters.

Before dying, the black Jiao in the lake shouted: "Sword Immortal spare my life, I will never make trouble again!! ”

It's a pity that the people in the sky are not sword immortals, and even sword immortals will not stop the sword in their hands.

The white light flashed, the flood diverted, and the shrimp and crabs were wiped out.

Without the support of demonic power, the flood receded at a speed visible to the naked eye. The flooded village was bare, leaving not a trace of it.

Li Changsheng and the two fell from the clouds, and the 10-year-old child stopped crying when he saw this scene. I don't know if I cried dry my tears, or because I killed to pay for my life, I forgot my sorrow.

After half a salary, the child came back to his senses and knelt down to Li Changsheng again, first bowing three times and bowing nine times as a thank you gift. This was followed by three bows and nine bows, for the sake of apprenticeship

"Ask the immortals to take me as an apprentice, I want to subdue demons and eliminate demons."

"I don't accept disciples, but I can teach you the Dharma. This is Changchun Gong, you should practice it first. ”

Li Changsheng shook his head and refused, but he did not refuse completely. He never thought about accepting apprentices, firstly because he had no inheritance, and secondly, because he didn't have the leisure to manage his apprentices, let alone such a cause and effect.

In the spiritual world, the master-apprentice relationship is equivalent to the father-son relationship.

"Ask the immortals to take me as a disciple."

Even if the child obtained the immortal cultivation method, he still knelt on the ground and continued to plead, he didn't know if he could learn it, and at the same time, he wanted to find someone to rely on out of fear.

Li Changsheng refused again and again, and seeing that the other party was still unwilling to give up, he could only shake his head and say: "I can put you into the immortal gate, success or failure depends on you, and I am not your master." ”

"By the way, what's your name?"

"Le Xiaoqi."

"It seems that you are the seventh in the family, and you are still the youngest in the family."

Li Yi's casual words shocked Le Xiaoqi, he was indeed ranked seventh, and he was indeed the youngest in the family.

"How do the immortals know?" Le Xiaoqi asked, "Can you have a foresight?" ”

Li Changsheng shook his head and said: "It's just that I have lived for a long time, and ordinary peasant families have names, one surname, and the other is ranking." ”

"Immortals, do you know my birth date?"

"I don't want to know?"

"Do the immortals have a family, do they have children?.hh, will the immortals get married?"

"I had a wife and then died."

"Immortals."

"Shut up."
