Qi Wufu raised his eyes and looked at this [Passage Pavilion] and nodded.

The old man patted him lightly on the shoulder, and a flowing aura covered him, covering his body.

Heaven and earth are hidden, and all beings are hidden.

So the three souls converged in the mud palace, and the essence returned to chaos.

Even the gods of the heavenly realm will clairvoyance, and they will never see his traces; The divine beasts that surround the underworld can't hear the slightest sound.

The old man handed the dust in his hand to Qi Wufu again, and said with a smile: "The old man won't go in." ”

Qi Wufu made a salute and walked quietly into this [Passage View], there were many people coming and going, but no one could notice him, Qi Wufu saw that under the pine and cypress, there was a Taoist sitting on a three-foot high platform, with a ten unique crane cover on his head, with a long and mysterious breath, holding a jade Ruyi in his hand, and telling many mysterious and wonderful methods.

Qi Wufu thought about it, and didn't immediately reveal his figure and asked.

With both hands in front of him, the right hand is holding his left hand, just like when he is meditating, and the dust is in the crook of his arm, standing quietly beside everyone, listening to this senior brother talk about the Tao, which is really mysterious and profound.

The method of refining the essence of the essence and the innate Qi is explained very clearly.

But Qi was unconfused but vague, and seemed to be able to feel that what this Dao said should be based on the old man's self-development on the basis of some of the mantras taught by the old man, compared to it, it is far less profound and subtle than the old man's teachings, and the Taoist explained the Tao and solved the confusion for many disciples, and then left.

Many disciples stood up in unison, bowed, and said that the teacher would send them off.

Qi Wufu thought about it and followed behind him.

Looking back, some of these many disciples are young and handsome, and some are richly dressed, and they all look like dragons and phoenixes among people.

And his senior brother's steps are also very brisk.

The man walked back into the quiet room, and there was no luxury, he was still simple, just making himself tea.

The Taoist lowered his eyes and exhaled, listening to the endless calls of the teacher outside, a trace of a smile still appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Suddenly, he whispered freely:

"The immortals of the Purple Mansion chant at night, and the pine wind sits like a harp."

"The Ming Dynasty went to Qingcheng again, and laughed at Penglai as a guest star."

Suddenly, I heard a soft voice: "Senior brother is very interested." ”

The Taoist was shocked in his heart, with his own realm, he was deceived to such a distance, and he couldn't help but feel waves in his heart, but after all, he had rich experience, and his tone was still flat, and he said with a smile: "Where is the Taoist friend, come here to find me?" ”

Qi Wufu dispersed the law decision.

So the owner of the Passage Pavilion was ready to go, as long as he noticed a change in qi, he would kill it with one move, but suddenly saw that seven steps in front of him, the space rippled, and a young Taoist naturally walked out.

Dressed in a blue water cloud suit, with black hairpins, a five-color silk bundle around his waist, and no jade pendant.

Stick a turquoise branch diagonally on one side.

The right hand drags the dust, and the appearance is handsome and natural.

Just like the disciple of the high position of the Xuanmen, it is like the cyclamen of the red dust in the world.

The expression of the Taoist who opened up the passage hall changed slightly and he got up.

"Are you ?!!"

Qi Wufu looked at the Taoist in front of him, saw that he was still simple, and saw that he was just an ordinary Taoist robe, a wooden hairpin, without any extravagant enjoyment, but with a deep temperament and bright eyes, he bowed slightly, and said:

"Senior brother Xuanwei, I have seen senior brother."

"Xuanwei ......"

The man subconsciously turned around to look for it, but he couldn't find the figure of the old man, and subconsciously asked:

"Where's the teacher?"

Qi Wufu quieted down, and replied according to the teacher's instructions, "I'm the only one here today." ”

The man breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled:

"I don't know if my junior brother is here, and I won't say it in advance, my senior brother hasn't been able to prepare to entertain you yet."

"Come, sit down, have a cup of tea."

He took out the tea, Qi Wufu recognized that although this was not a very expensive type of tea, it was not an ordinary object, it should only grow on the cliffs of mountains and rivers, and even the water for making tea seemed to be melted by the glacier in the extremely cold place, he looked at the Taoist in front of him, without too many greetings, but said: "The teacher wants you to return to the master to practice, is it okay?" ”

Daodao: "Return to the master? What is it to do? ”

Qi Wufu replied: "Wander around, find teachers and friends, and cultivate your life and life." ”

The Taoist was silent, and subconsciously raised his eyes to look out the window, and he could see that the canopy was full and the pines and cypresses were evergreen.

Although he doesn't like luxury, many disciples respect him, respect himself, and come and go, all of them are high-ranking officials and nobles; Chatting and drinking, but also the beauty of the world, although do not interfere in the world, but the changes in the world are all related to me, every move, can make the situation of a country change, the emperor of the human race is the way of luck, and I am the one who helps the dragon court.

A drop in the red dust, but it can lead to thousands of circulation.

It's not lustful, but the beauties in the world are as I choose; Don't be greedy for money, but if you want to, you can bow down.

When I thought of this place, I suddenly felt a little complacent, rising from the deepest part of my Dao heart.

But after leaving, I'm afraid I have to travel all over the world, and I can't do it again.

The palm of his hand looked around the teacup, seemed to hesitate, and then said with a smile:

"Maybe, I can only disobey my teacher's orders."

Qi Wu said confusedly: "Why? ”

The Taoist replied: "I used to have great ambitions, to purify the disciples of the world, but now it is just beginning, today's emperor is also considered heroic, with my assistance, I can achieve great things, sweep away the demon kingdom in all directions; You can also gather many disciples to enter my Dao Gate and pass on my Dharma, but it has not yet been completed, so you can't leave with the teacher. ”

Qi Wufu looked at this Taoist deeply, did not agree to his retention, and got up to say goodbye.

"In that case, the teacher gave the Dao number and the jade slip to the senior brother back then."

"Please return it."

The man was silent, reached into his cuffs, and took out the jade slip, but the jade slip never left his body.

His fingers rubbed the jade slip, and finally handed the jade slip to Qi Wufu.

There is regret in my heart, but also a feeling of relief, and even some slight distractions, thinking that anyway, the exercises have been taught to me, and I have also walked out of my own path.

People, after all, they still have to have their own choices.

After he finished drinking the tea, his Dao heart did not change, he got up and said with a smile: "Senior brother, I will send you ......"

Qi Wufu shook his head and said, "Don't bother Daoyou. ”

The Heavenly Master who had the Dao name Yuyang had a complicated expression, sighed, and saw the young man push open the door, and the sunlight sprinkled into the room, somewhat dusty up and down, but in the sun, it seemed to emit a golden streamer, when Qi Wufu walked out, there were still some registered disciples here who looked at him in surprise, and the young man just nodded politely and walked out step by step.

Curiously asked, standing up, the Taoist with gray temples: "Teacher, who is this little Taoist?" ”

The Taoist who lost the Taoist name of Yuyang Zhenren looked at the young man walking in the light and shadow, dressed in a blue water cloud suit, with a sword box behind his back, and a straight back, recalling his appearance when he first entered the Dao, with three points of complexity, a little sigh, and suddenly seemed to have been relieved, shook his head with a smile and turned around, and said peacefully: "An old man." ”

"That's all......"

……………………

When Qi Wufu walked outside, he saw that the old man was looking up at the leaves falling, as if he was concentrating.

I didn't know why I was a little angry and sad, took out the jade plate in my hand, and said, "Teacher, what are you doing?" ”

The old man didn't look back, just raised his hand and pointed to this evergreen tree, there was a leaf moving slightly in the wind, it seemed to come down, but it seemed to be still on it, half withered and half green, quite mysterious, and said with a smile: "The teacher just looks at it, whether this leaf falls, or not, when will it fall, when will it wither?" ”

Then he said: "He didn't follow you out, he has already made a choice?" ”

Qi Wufu nodded.

The old man turned around and looked at this jade slip, which was the same texture as the one that Qi Wufu had, the jade yang on the front, and the name and surname of the person written on the back, the old man looked at Qi Wufu and said, "Go and take out the sword and smash this jade slip." ”

Qi Wufu had not yet reached the realm of innate Yiqi, so he just took out the sword from the sword box and then followed the old man's instructions.

With a sword split, the blade struck the jade slip, and the jade slip shattered.

The old man took out a sugar gourd and handed it to him, and said with a smile: "Good boy, this is for you." ”

The blue-shirted boy said, "I'm no longer a child, and the teacher doesn't have to treat me like this." ”

The old man smiled and said, "Eat?" ”

“…… Food. ”

Qi Wufu carried the sword box on his back, put the sword away, and then took the sugar gourd.

First, he carefully licked the tissue paper made of syrup on it, and then slowly ate it, and asked:

"Teacher, is it okay to smash the jade slip?"

The old man said gently, "Yes, that's enough. ”

"Don't take anything, don't take away his cultivation and merits."

"His foundation is still there, his cultivation is still there, but he doesn't have a relationship with me."

Qi Wufu still didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, and when he pondered, the jade slip that was thrown on the side of the road behind his back suddenly shattered, turned into light dust, and ceased to exist.

On the evergreen trees, a green leaf finally falls.

The old man smiled:

"It's just that, since then, he has [never] been my disciple."
