Chapter 20: The Mysterious Old Man
"The husband should be like this, if I can be like him, become famous in one fell swoop, even if I am willing to die!"
The storyteller slapped his hand in shock, and when he finished the last sentence, a big man below sighed majestically, and another person dressed as a Taoist priest on the side sneered: "Do you still want to be famous with your little effort?" I don't want to think about what kind of person the jade people are? I heard that he has been an old-timer who has been practicing for decades, and the reason why he looks young is because his cultivation is extremely mysterious. ”
"Is that rumor true? Can Changchun Gong really make people immortal? When the people on the side heard this, their attention was immediately attracted, and the Taoist priest waited until the people around him were all around, and Xiao Er also gave him good wine, and then said slowly: "Immortality is naturally impossible, but prolonging life is real." You don't want to think about it, how old does that Jade Dao person look? The appearance of being in his early twenties is to cultivate from his mother's womb and be able to do it for a few years, so his age must be more than he seems. And what do we do best? Health ......"
"Poof...... Yuan Qingwei sneered, shook his head, and was about to get up and leave, when he heard a person on the side laughing: "This Taoist doesn't seem to agree with the statement below, but what do you know?" ”
Turning his head to look, Yuan Qingwei saw a young man in a cotton robe, and he arched his hand at Yuan Qingwei and said: "Under Zhang Chang, it was my younger brother Zhang Ming who spoke just now, and he took the liberty of disturbing the Dao Chief, but we are really curious about the reason why the Dao Chang sneered just now." ”
"It's nothing, I just think what the people below say is really a bit outrageous, although the way of martial arts is mysterious, it also has a limit. What they say is almost a myth. ”
"That's not bad!" Zhang Chang nodded, and then said with a smile: "But what they said is not completely unreasonable, that Jade Dao person is not simple, maybe there is really a way to live forever." ”
"How is this possible?" Yuan Qing asked rhetorically with a smile.
"Doesn't the Taoist know about Qingwei Zhenren?" Zhang Ming said curiously when he heard this.
"Qingwei real person?" He is naturally very clear about his incarnation of Yuan Qingwei, but as a Taoist priest, this kind of Taoist master who has just been determined to be "immortal" should not be too clear, and said appropriately: "It is said that he is a new Taoist real person in the Zhenwu lineage, but the specific situation is not very clear." Why, the matter of the Jade Dao person is still related to this Qingwei real person? ”
"You don't know!" Zhang Ming pointed out: "That Qingwei Zhenren is the only person who has been proven to become an immortal in modern times. A few years ago, the famous Zhiming Zhenren was inherited by Qingwei Zhenren, so that he could become a first-class powerhouse in contemporary times at an age when he was not a weak crown. And this jade dao man also looks young, and his origin is more mysterious than the Zhiming Zhenren who can still find the inheritance lineage, so some people speculate that this jade Daoist may have obtained the inheritance of the Qingwei Zhenren, or encountered a situation similar to the Zhiming Zhenren, so there are many people looking for him now. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Ming lowered his voice and said, "And as far as we know, that Jade Dao person will appear in the vicinity for a generation recently. ”
Yuan Qingwei was shocked in his heart, and said in surprise: "He will appear here?" But according to the person below, shouldn't the Yudao people go down the river to the Lingnan generation? This place is very different from Lingnan! ”
"The Taoist doesn't know!" Zhang Chang smiled and said flatly: "The trip of the Jade Daoist seems to be down the river, but if you look closely at the places he passed after he appeared, you will find that several places where he stayed for a longer time have temples with flourishing incense, we suspect that he traveled all the way for the incense in those temples, and after Lingnan, it is the place of exile, and there are few temples." Therefore, when he reached the Lingnan border, he would not continue south, but would turn north. And this place is one of the few places with flourishing incense on the way north, and the probability of his appearance will not be too low. ”
"I see." Yuan Qingwei nodded, and asked instead, "However, what are you two telling me such important information for?" ”
"As a member of the Daomen, the Taoist must know something here. We brothers don't ask for much, we just want to exchange information with the Taoist master. As the elder brother, Zhang Chang stopped the younger brother who spoke first and responded with a smile.
"Is that true?" Yuan Qingwei glanced at Zhang Ming, although there was no problem on the face of this young man who looked a little silly and sweet, but Yuan Qingwei's spiritual sense cultivated by incense could still feel a trace of disdain and nervousness in the other party's heart.
'Interesting! Yuan Qingwei secretly laughed in his heart and sighed: "Although I really want to communicate with a few people, I'm sorry, I really don't know what the inside story is." ”
"Hey!" A sigh sounded, Yuan Qing turned his head slightly, and saw an old man with white hair standing not far away, Zhang Ming's face changed slightly when he saw this, and he was about to scold him, but when he and the old man looked at each other, he was standing there with his eyes blank.
At the same time, Zhang Chang was also confused, stupid and did not react, and even the surrounding noise was far away.
The old man looked at Yuan Qingwei, and he realized that there was something wrong with the old man's eyes, the color of his pupils was a little blue, and the moment he looked at each other, it gave people a wonderful feeling of looking up at the sky. Yuan Qing snorted coldly, broke the other party's spiritual influence technique, looked at the old man and said, "Who is Your Excellency?" ”
"Interesting! But forget it, I don't have the heart to pursue these ......" The old man smiled: "Little Taoist, you and I are both understanding people, and I don't bother to tell you those inconsequential things!" I'm here for one purpose, what are you seeking? Since four or five years ago, I have noticed a slight strange change between heaven and earth, and when I calculate the specific time, it is probably about the same as the time when the Ming and Qing Wei Daoists instructed the Ming Dynasty. And then your whereabouts are also very interesting, I can't even find out where you came from. ”
Between the words, the old man's aura constantly interacted with the surrounding environment, and finally formed a field-like existence, producing a strange coercion, distorting Yuan Qingwei's perception of the external vitality and spiritual machine: "My request is very simple, what are you looking for?" Or rather, what do you know? ”
"Who is Your Excellency?" Yuan Qing's micro mana operated, and at the same time as the second question, the golden wisp of the clothes was naturally exerted, and the pale golden brilliance flowed outside the body, but the old man's eyes lit up: "What is this?" ”
"Does this have anything to do with Your Excellency?" Yuan Qingwei asked rhetorically.
"The breath feels like a bit like the Vajra of Dalin Temple, but the way it works is completely different, closer to the Taoist Longming Iron Cloth Shirt. It's just that the Longming iron cloth shirt is a kind of physical reinforcement method that is gradually formed by the stimulation of muscles and the beating of external forces. And you are from the inside out, and there is a fundamental difference. The most important thing is that this way of operation is completely different from normal martial arts......" The old man muttered a few words to himself, stared at Yuan Qingwei and said with some enthusiasm: "What do you really have to do with Qingwei Daoist?" Have you received his legacy? ”
"Who the hell is Your Excellency?" Yuan Qingwei asked for the third time, and the old man finally responded.
