"What the Taoist said may be true?"

"Don't dare to deceive."

"Ridiculous! Who in heaven and earth would dare to do this? ”

"Why don't you dare?"

"The gods have no virtue, it is a thing that has existed throughout the ages, even if the heavens and the earth are changed, and a group of gods are changed, this process is inevitable, if the Taoist wants to start from the heavenly palace itself, and wants to start from the road to heaven, it is undoubtedly the root of the heavenly palace and Shinto, almost above the Shinto, and it is far more difficult to face more than the heavenly palace priests, and it is far more difficult than changing the heavens and the earth and changing the emperor."

The old man's eyes widened and he looked at the Taoist in disbelief: "Even if the Dao Master has the power of the ancients, it is too arrogant and reckless to want to do this kind of thing. ”

"Everything in the world starts here."

"Dao Leader really has such courage?"

"It's not that I have such courage below, it's just that the disease of the gods of the Heavenly Palace, as time goes by, it has become more and more deeply rooted in the bone marrow, and as the world changes greater, the conflict with the human world is getting bigger and bigger." Song You's tone was still sincere and calm, but what he said was enough to shock the gods and Buddhas, "It's not a god down there, it's just a human." ”

"With the skills of the Dao Master, if you embark on the Divine Dao, follow the example of the Fire Yang Divine Monarch, and be an ancient god standing behind the Heavenly Palace, what's so difficult?"

"That's not what I want."

"How sure is the Taoist Chief?"

"The matter is undecided, it's hard to say, it just depends on how much preparation you have, and how much strength you can borrow between heaven and earth." Song You said, "It's just that sentence, as time goes by, the decaying and old Heavenly Palace and the human world that should go all the way are no longer suitable for coexistence, I am the descendant of Fulongguan, and it is difficult to coexist with the Heavenly Palace, instead of continuing to delay and leave it to future generations, it is better to take advantage of the fact that I just have a little bit of heart, just good at this, and I just happened to meet ......."

Song You showed a smile: "What can be solved in my generation will not be left to future generations." ”

“……”

When the old man heard this, he was silent again.

The tone of the Taoist is really calm and indifferent, like a hermit in the mountains meeting another hermit, gossiping about the things of the world, but what he said is too earth-shattering, and his tone is sincere, and it does not make people feel that he is telling lies and big words, and even the indifferent and calm tone gives people a firmness that must be done and will be done.

Especially the smile of the Taoist, the smile was also very indifferent, but with the words after that, in the calm, it made the old man also feel a kind of grandeur that was rare in his life.

Since this kind of thing is destined to happen, why leave it to future generations to be embarrassed?

I should put myself first, even if I don't know if I can do it or not.

It's a real grandeur.

Looking at the present day, when the world looks back at the predecessors, there are often some inconceivable feats, some unimaginable difficulties, and I don't know how the predecessors conquered and how they won, but in fact, the biggest difficulty faced by the predecessors is that they don't know whether things can be done, and they don't know whether they can see the dawn of victory.

The old man seemed to be infected by it, and he couldn't help but fall into memories, thinking back to his own life, who was the last time he saw someone with such courage, and his face was still clear......

It was a moment before he withdrew his gaze.

The terraced fields are like glass mirrors, reflecting the blue of the heavenly palace, and the young Taoist is still sitting cross-legged, staring at him, waiting for his answer, and the morning sun hits the shadow of the tree on him.

A beautiful three-flowered cat next to him, squatting upright, didn't seem to understand the words of the Taoist, but also vaguely felt the solemnity of the atmosphere at this time, so he looked serious, and his tail didn't shake, so he sat next to the Taoist and stared at him with his head up.

There was also a swallow in the tree overhead.

The swallow is undoubtedly more knowledgeable about the world, and his eyes are full of shock at this time.

"What do you think?"

The young Taoist was still staring at the old man.

"It's a peach tree, isn't it?"

The old man looked at the dead tree beside the Taoist, and inexplicably felt that if the tree was full of flowers, the picture under the tree must be very beautiful.

"Mountain peach."

"It would be nice if it was spring......"

"It's already spring."

"Hehe, although the Taoist chief is practicing the Four Seasons Spiritual Method, he also knows that the four seasons are different in various places, the time of day is different, and spring is already early and late, but it cannot be generalized." The old man laughed.

"Then when do you think it's spring?"

Song You leaned forward slightly and made a gesture of asking for advice.

“……”

The old man shook his head and did not answer, but brought the topic back on track: "The Dao Leader is really good spirit, but what if the old man says that the Dao Chief is taking the life of the real dragon?" ”

"How?"

"There is indeed a real dragon under the cloud pool, and the 'true dragon in the world has disappeared' recorded by the Taoist Master is not wrong, the world is wonderful, and there are many coincidences."

"I want to hear about it."

"The true dragon in the cloud pool is probably the last true dragon in the world, I don't know how many years. It's just that the real dragon is dead, the dragon's heart is missing, fortunately it fell here, heaven and earth have created a spiritual rhyme, infinite vitality, relying on this side has infinite vitality spiritual rhyme, the true dragon has been able to survive to this day. The old man said slowly, "However, although the true dragon lives because of this, it is also trapped here, and it cannot be easily left, and it can only fly out of here at the beginning of spring every year, and when it sees this vast world, it takes a breath." ”

Song You closed his eyes and was silent for a moment.

"Can a dragon live without a heart?"

"Nature can live."

"But is it also called living?"

“……”

Just one sentence made the old man silent.

"I haven't seen the real dragon in the next, but I have also heard that the real dragon soars between heaven and earth, above the clouds, without restraint, infinite changes, it can be seen that it is free and easy, I take the name Fulong, meaning the hidden dragon, generation after generation is also walking the world, free and free, do what you want to do, and cultivate the method of cultivation." The Taoist opened his eyes and looked at the old man, "Living like this, will the real dragon get tired of it?" ”

"You're not a dragon, how do you know what a dragon thinks?"

"Offended under the offense."

Song You stopped talking, didn't say anything at all, just picked up the wine bowl and poured wine for him:

"Senior, please drink."

“……”

The old man picked up the wine bowl and looked up at him: "It seems that the Taoist is bound to win that Lingyun." ”

"Nature."

"But since this is the case, the Taoist has such a way, and the people have also arrived here, why don't you go down and get the spiritual rhyme yourself, and wait here?"

"I heard that there is a real dragon living below, I don't know if it's true or not, it's rude to disturb rashly, so I want to wait a little longer. Even if you have to do something rude, you have to wait until there is really no way to do it. ”

"The Taoist chief is really polite."

"As it should be."

"Hahahaha, fortunately, the Dao Chief didn't rush down to get the treasure!" The old man raised his head and smiled, "Over the years, there have been no other great monks who have come here, and there is no shortage of people who have traveled through the heavens, but as long as they come not around the beginning of spring, they will definitely not see the true dragon, even if it is before and after the beginning of spring, the real dragon does not want to come out, and they can't see it, the Taoist chief thinks, haven't they tried to go down?" ”

Song You lowered his eyelids and was silent.

He didn't know who the old man was talking about as a "great monk", but most of the "people who practiced the way to the sky" were their own ancestors.

"If the true dragon is not angry, it will go where it is, and if the real dragon is angry, there are few people who can get out of it." The old man's tone was also very calm, "This is the place where the true dragon is entrenched, and the ancient powers have no reason to enter other people's caves, let alone break into the dragon pool." ”

Song You heard something from his tone, so he put down the wine bowl and humbly asked for advice.

"So what do seniors think I should do?"

"Can you trust me?"

"My seniors can trust me, and I can trust my seniors."

"I didn't believe you."

"Then I'll trust my predecessors first."

"Haha, this person is really interesting, hahaha, it's been a long time since I've met someone as interesting as you."

The old man put down the bowl and stroked his palms and laughed.

The smile was a little frenzied.

Mountain hermits rarely have such a temperament.

"The old man has a plan!"

"Please give me advice."

"Get up, pack your bags, and go up this mountain." The old man stretched out a hand and pointed to the mountain in front of him, Bashu Village, "Go out five hundred steps, don't look back, the old man will go down first, see if you can tell the real dragon a little bit of your courage, persuade the real dragon to give up the last ten years of Gouyan, and give you the spiritual rhyme......"

The old man paused, then raised his head and laughed: "Hahahaha, as you said, I will lend you some strength between heaven and earth!" ”

Hearing this, the cat turned its head to look at the Taoist.

The swallow also looked down at the Taoist.

"Good!"

The Taoist did not hesitate and stood up.

Then he packed his bags, put them on horseback, did not doubt them at all, did not drag them at all, picked up the bamboo cane, and walked up the mountain.

The old man stood beside him, watching him.

A pair of cloudy eyes sparkled with brilliance.

A little smile gradually appeared on his face.

The figure of the Taoist figure is getting farther and farther away.

Horse bells rang out among the white clouds.

"Meow?"

The cat naturally followed the Taoist, but he couldn't help but turn his head to stare at him, and then looked behind him, frowning: "Could that old man lie to us?" ”

"Sanhua Niangniang, don't turn back."

"Sanhua Niangniang thinks he lied to us."

"Yes."

The Taoist nodded, but his footsteps did not stop.

also according to the agreement, and did not look back.

It's just that another figure came running on the mountain.

It's a middle-aged man surnamed Liu.

"Sir! Ay? ”

The middle-aged man surnamed Liu was sweating profusely and panting, running down the path from the mountain, almost stepping on the air several times, I don't know if he stepped on crooked or his legs had lost his strength, until he got close to Song You, he stopped and looked at him in surprise while panting: "Sir, are you waiting?" Going? ”

"It's hard to say."

"Sir! I have something to say to my husband! ”

"What's the matter?"

Song You stopped slightly and looked up at him.

"Don't be afraid, sir."

"Is it the old-timer?"

"How does the gentleman know?"

"Guess."

"That's the old gentleman! What Liu said before is true! The old gentleman really lives on Mao'er Mountain in the south, but just now Liu went to visit a friend, in the village, just met a hermit in the mountains who came to buy oil and salt, chatted with him, and talked about the old gentleman, I heard that the old gentleman had died two years ago! ”

"Meow?"

Song You hadn't spoken yet, but the cat was stunned, and instantly turned his head to look back.

There are only patches of terraced fields under the mountain, the clouds and mist are rising, and a mountain peach without a leaf is erected on the edge of the field, and the traces of their sleeping in the open can be faintly seen, but where is the figure of the old man?

The cat couldn't help but look at the Taoist again.

The middle-aged man surnamed Liu also looked at the Taoist.

“……”

The Taoist did not panic at all, neither looked back nor said much, only held his cane and continued to walk up.

Jujube Red Horse followed silently.

"Dingding......

There were also one or two hermits above, who did not leave.

It's just that compared to the previous days, it's very deserted.

Not yet five hundred steps -

Suddenly, I heard a long dragon chant behind me, which resounded through the mountains, with a violent wind, and the vibration of the earth and mountains instantly spread up from the bottom of the mountain.

“……”

Song You stopped and turned around instantly.

In front of the diagonal downward terraces, the end of the terraces is still a cliff, the white clouds below are deep, tumbling non-stop, the cloud pool surrounded by the mountains in the distance is no longer visible, can only see a huge cyan figure comparable to the mountains, soaring from the bottom of the cloud pool, straight into the sky.

It's hard to tell how big this figure is.

I only know that the width of its body is like this mountain, and the length is not known how long, I can only see the figure rushing up in front of it, huge scales from the eyes, almost unclear, the wind will bring up the weeds and wild trees on the cliff, even if the Taoist has walked a certain distance from the edge of the cloud pool, he is still almost blown by the wind to stand unsteadily, and take it to the sky.

The true dragon was still soaring, and its body had already penetrated deep into the blue sky, but half of its body was still submerged in the cloud pool.

Song You had seen a dragon in the southeast and overseas, and the dragon had a thousand-year-old Taoism, and he also called himself a real dragon, and he was also called the Sea Dragon King, but compared to the one in front of him, he was just a loach.

“……”

The true dragon finally fully rose and left the cloud pool.

Whether it was the middle-aged man surnamed Liu beside him, or the one or two hermits who were still waiting not far away, whether they had seen it before or not, they were already stunned.

In the village, I don't know how many villagers pushed the doors and opened the windows, looking at this side in surprise.

Many of the children were also seeing each other for the first time.

The diameter of this cloud pool is at least 100 miles, and it is completely a dwelling place for the true dragon, it rushes out of the cloud pool, soars into the sky, the end of the tail naturally hangs down, and it stays in the cloud pool, the body is winding, and the mountains and clouds are faintly touched below, and most of the body is spread out in the air, like the size of the mountains.

The true dragon held the orb, lowered his head, and looked at the incomparably small Taoist in the mountains.

The Taoist was holding a bamboo cane and looked at him.

The three-flowered cat beside him had already retreated to the Taoist's feet, close to his feet, to gain a faint sense of security.

The swallow was also shocked.

“……”

A green light slowly flew down.

It is a jewel in the mouth of a real dragon.

The Taoist respectfully stretched out his hand to take it.

When he raised his head to look at the real dragon again, the real dragon no longer looked at him, but just stretched his body in the air, as if he was feeling a rare sense of ease.

After a moment, he tilted his head back and inhaled.

“……”

Then he suddenly bowed his head and spit out—

The real dragon breathes, the mountains are green, and the earth is spring.
