Ye Qin stared at the little girl in front of him, human beings are really very complex creatures.

Last time Hu Xiaocao begged him to save his mother, he took action to extend the life of a woman for a year, thinking that the time limit was approaching, and Hu Xiaocao would bring his mother again.

But I didn't expect it to be not, and I just came to say goodbye to him this time.

Human beings are afraid of death and rarely be able to greet it calmly, which makes Ye Qin a little surprised, looking at the past and present, few people can do this.

Often in contact with mysterious powers, there will always be greed for more.

After he was reborn as a snake, he didn't have much face-to-face contact with humans, and the only ones who had more contact were the mother and daughter.

Fortunately, it turned out that his vision was not wrong, the mother and daughter were not the kind of people who were insatiable, they worshipped their faith and asked for not much for themselves, but more gratitude.

His mother did not want to go up the mountain until she died, and Xiaocao couldn't bear to see her mother's 'passing' and didn't want to bother herself again, even if she came this time to say goodbye, and never took her mother up the mountain to ask for medicine.

Therefore, what is commendable is that sincerity, which is rare in the world nowadays, which is why Ye Qin was willing to take the initiative to show up after Hu Xiaocao indicated that he was leaving.

And Hu Xiaocao relieved himself for a long time, and looked at the mountain god in front of him with reverence, and now it was the first serious meeting between the two sides.

Tears gathered in his eyes, as if he couldn't believe that he had really seen the mountain god.

The mountain god was even more miraculous and powerful than she imagined, although she didn't speak, but the pair of beast eyes flashed with a wise light, which seemed to explain everything invisibly.

The big snake nodded at her, and then glanced at the ground, at first Hu Xiaocao didn't understand the meaning of this action.

Ye Qin didn't stay here for long, and soon disappeared into the grass next to him.

However, after he left, Hu Xiaocao found that there were a few books in the place where the big snake had stayed before, but they were blocked before, so he didn't see them.

She couldn't help but recall the gaze of the mountain god from earlier.

"What is this?"

Hu Xiaocao picked it up curiously, the cover was already yellowed, and many corners were a little missing, and it could be seen that the book was quite ancient, and she basically didn't know the words on it when she flipped through it.

"This is what Grandpa Mountain God gave me?"

Hu Xiaocao looked at the direction in which the mountain god left, as if he had made up some kind of determination.

"Grandpa Mountain God, don't worry, I won't live up to your expectations."

No matter what happens later, as the village chief said, only by studying can you practice better, first set a small goal for yourself, and try to memorize all the words on these books.

At a young age, Hu Xiaocao has already started planning for the future, and thinks that Grandpa Mountain God also supports him to study hard.

She solemnly put the scriptures and the snake together with the molt.

He was very smart at a young age, and it must be extremely important to know things related to the mountain gods, and he couldn't easily reveal them to people, so he hid them all in his clothes, and didn't show them to anyone.

Only when you are alone can you secretly watch and not be discovered by others.

When he came down from the mountain, Hu Xiaocao, who was originally a little low, swept away the haze of the past few days, regained his vitality, and was full of yearning for the future life.

Sitting in the car to the county seat, Hu Xiaocao looked at the endless green hills outside the car window, as the distance became farther and farther.

The distant mountains are hazy, as if shrouded in a light veil that seems to be nothing, and the mountains are undulating continuously, like a giant snake with its head high, looking into the distance, full of shadows, full of mystery in the misty clouds and smoke.

The village chief saw that Hu Xiaocao didn't speak, and thought that she was depressed and distressed, after all, she was studying alone, and her only relative was lying in a vegetative state in the hospital.

"Xiaocao, you have to take care of yourself outside and study hard."

Hu Xiaocao nodded heavily, "I know, don't worry, village chief grandpa, don't worry about me." ”

Looking at the green mountains that were getting farther and farther in the distance, she silently added in her heart, "Goodbye Grandpa Mountain God." ”

……

Fate arises, fate disappears.

Prosperity and decay are orderly, and gathering and dispersing are impermanent.

Ye Qin walked in the mountains and forests, and when he heard Hu Xiaocao say goodbye to him, he said that he wanted to practice, although he said that he was unscrupulous, but Ye Qin, as the only cultivator in the world, was also quite relieved and touched.

He also has nothing to give, and giving scriptures can be regarded as a complete love of incense.

Ye Qin knew that even if Hu Xiaocao succeeded in his studies in the future and understood the literal meaning, he would not be able to comprehend the mystery.

Since ancient times, there have been so many people seeking immortals and seeking the Tao, including ancient sages and saints, but no one has ever been able to succeed.

It's not a matter of talent, it's a matter of being shackled by the level of life.

Hu Xiaocao is not as blessed as herself, so naturally she will not be that exception.

Ye Qin knew very well that she would not succeed, but leaving the scriptures was just a thought for this child.

I hope that she can study diligently in the future, get out of the haze, and have hope, and her life will be bright.

At this point, the intersection of the two sides has also come to an end here, as for whether they will meet again in the future, and it depends on the creation arrangement of God.

Ye Qin couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that the innate Qi is even more magical than I thought." ”

He himself didn't expect that a woman's life was approaching, and he didn't have his own help to save her, but because of the innate Qi, she still retained that breath of anger, and became a vegetative state now.

As long as there is hope in life, people die like lights going out, at least for now, Hu Xiaocao still has a hope here.

"It seems that my pace of cultivation has accelerated."

Ye Qin has never stopped the pace of alchemy, and every time he finishes practicing the pill, he will return to the tomb to cultivate and absorb, and now Zuo Ci's tomb has become the second base camp.

After replacing the large vat with a tripod, although the volume is smaller than before, it is more convenient to use.

Ye Qin was able to control the spiritual power all over the Ding, wrapping the inside and outside tightly, I don't know if it was his illusion, even the speed and quality of alchemy have improved a lot.

Originally, it could only be refined into one, but in the end, it was able to successfully refine several pills at the same time.

It may be due to the fact that the material of the tripod is somewhat special, Ye Qin has studied, what kind of material is the tripod made of?

I didn't see any way to do it later, so I had to give up.

All in all, although this tripod is just a mortal thing, the material is indeed somewhat special, suitable for refining medicine.

The feng shui inside the tomb is good, and the magnetic field here is special, so every time Ye Qin takes the pill, he is in it, and strives to maximize the effect of the medicine.

Ye Qin's snake tail was flexibly wrapped around Dingzu's body, slowly dragging Ding's body forward, and went down to the tomb, although Ding's tail was not very big, but it was solid and very heavy.

But for Ye Qin's current size and strength, this weight is not a problem, even if there is another one, he can withstand it.

Now that he has thrown his tail down, the thick tree can break off at the waist, which is not the same as the little snake at the beginning.

The sun was shining outside, but inside the tomb was extremely dark, and the inside was dark.

There is no source of light, but it does not affect Ye Qin's vision, this cool aura makes him extremely fond of it, after all, snakes are yin-loving.

Ye Qin took the tripod to the most central position of the tomb, this direction is the best, the snake tail gently pushed, the tripod body tilted slightly, and several green pills rolled down from it.

It is indeed inconvenient to have no limbs, but after such a long time, Ye Qin has become completely familiar with the snake body, and the flexibility of the tail is no less than that of his hands.

The elixir melts in the mouth, leaving a little sweetness along the snake's cavity, moisturizing the entire five organs.

Soon, all the pills were swallowed by Ye Qin, and he felt a cool breath running in his body, swimming in his blood.

Near the heart, there are clouds of flocculent objects, which seem to have their own life, and there is an inexplicable rhythm between breaths.

But it does not affect the existence of other organs in the body, as if it is a world of its own.

A few wisps of gas slowly formed in the body, as if attracted by something, unconsciously submerged into it, and soon the cloud-like thing expanded a little.

This is the air mass in Ye Qin's body, when it was first formed, it was almost the size of a fingernail, and now it has formed into such a scale.

As the effect of the medicine spread, Ye Qin's whole body was extremely comfortable, and every scale expanded.

That feeling of comfort made his snake letter tremble more often, and he kept breathing in the Qi of heaven and earth.

In the dimly lit tomb, a faintly visible dark green light flashed, and two rays of light suddenly lit up, as if penetrating the darkness, exuding an inexplicable look like a lantern.

When I looked closely, it turned out to be the eyes of the two beasts.

Ye Qin's entire snake body was hidden in the darkness, only two pairs of eyes looked blazing, and at first glance, it looked like it was floating in mid-air.

The Qi of Heaven and Earth operated here, and soon filled the space, and even the body and the murals were affected.

With Ye Qin as the center, the invisible silk threads slowly connected them together, and even the surrounding magnetic field was affected, resulting in some kind of change.

It's just that this change is minimal, plus Ye Qin's cultivation has gradually improved, and he is affected by the surrounding environment, so he doesn't notice this change.

The origin also appeared, and I saw a little white light diffuse from the surroundings, and then condensed into white bones more than half a person high.

Bai Gu sits cross-legged, the middle finger and ring finger of his right hand are bent inward, the finger of the big finger is pressed against the fingertips of the middle finger and ring finger, and the right hand is holding a small and delicate Taoist temple.

Take a closer look, the Taoist temple is lifelike, those old traces, but for it to add a sense of historical weight, the plaque faintly visible the word "Shangqing".

"Hum—"

There was a sound in the void, like a bell, like some other sound, that had crossed the river of time and resounded in the tomb.

The Dao rhyme has a long history, and it is endless, even Ye Qin, who was originally cultivating, couldn't help but be attracted and looked at the source of the voice.

If I am not mistaken, there is indeed a bell in the original Shangqing Temple.

Could it be that the sound emanated from the Taoist temple on the white bone hand?!

Ye Qin was a little unsure, he looked at the Taoist temple on the white bone hand.

Since the last time he meditated, the ontology has not received substantial feedback power, but the Taoist contemplation exists in the body of the original visualization object in this form.

Through previous visualizations, it can be concluded that every time you visualize something, the original visualization will also change, and it will feed back into your own body.

The white bones at the beginning, the moon and thunder and lightning in the back are almost the same, but this time it seems to be different.

Ye Qin had studied it before, but this miniature version of the Taoist temple didn't seem to be anything special, it looked like an ornament.

But now Ye Qin faintly felt an extraordinary aura.

It was a feeling that I couldn't explain, as if something was changing.

The bell quickly dissipated, as if the movement just now was just Ye Qin's illusion, but he was sure that he had heard it correctly.

"The sudden ringing of the bell is really a bit strange, could it be that it really emanates from the Taoist temple."

That is the case, why is it suddenly ringing at this time?

When Ye Qin was unpredictable, the bell rang again, but this time the distance seemed to be a little closer, and it became clear and clear.

Just as he was about to explore, the bell stopped abruptly, and a hazy veil seemed to stop him.

I don't know when it started, a faint white mist rose around it, and between the mist, the originally dim cave seemed to extend infinitely.

The tunnels between the tombs became bottomless, as if they were connected to another world, and even the surrounding walls seemed to have life.

Ye Qin's previous cultivation would bring all kinds of visions, and that was because he was attracted by the aura of heaven and earth.

But now in it, he sensed a force that did not belong to him, which was obviously different from before.

It's a little unfamiliar, but it's also a little familiar, and it's really a bit intricate and I can't understand the mystery.

"What a strange energy fluctuation."

In its current form, this force is not harmful to him, as it has been said before, the feng shui of the tombs here is different, and the geographical location is wonderful.

"Could it be because of my cultivation that the terrain here has been triggered?"

If you think about it carefully, it seems that this is the only reason.

Ye Qin flickered out of the corner of his eyes, as if he had found something, and his gaze fell on the mural next to him.

As mentioned earlier, the story on the tomb painting is full of mythology, and on this mural, it is painted with a mist-shrouded green mountain, which looks fairy.

Although the frescoes have been blurred and damaged over time, they have added a bit of mystery.

The second half of the mural extended into the darkness, and Ye Qin was trying to get closer.

"Hum—"

Before Ye Qin could see clearly, the bell rang again, but this time it was so close that it seemed to be ringing in his ears, and even the sound of constant buzzing came from his head.

Ye Qin's heart was fluttering, and he was slightly distracted.

In the whirlwind, all the scenery became blurred, as if the soul had become much lighter, floating out of the body uncontrollably.

The sudden feeling of weightlessness made him fall into the abyss, and when he opened his eyes again, the surrounding scene had taken on a new look, some strange and some familiar.

Ye Qin looked at the surrounding environment and said with some uncertainty, "I'm ...... In Shangqingguan? ”

The scene of this Taoist temple is exactly the same as the layout of Shangqing Temple!

Except that there are no two Taoist priests.

There was silence inside the Taoist temple, as if there was no trace of human existence.

All this is really amazing, obviously they were still in the tomb before, and they came to the Taoist temple in the blink of an eye.

"Did I go to Shangqing Temple, or did I come to my visualization?"

Ye Qin was shocked, and found that the faces of the gods in the Taoist temple were blurred, and he couldn't see the specific outline clearly, and he had an unlikely conjecture in his heart.

Maybe the Taoist temple in front of you is not the Shangqing Temple in reality!

It's the one that the Bone Origin is holding in his hand!

It's just that why did it magnify for no reason, and why did it suddenly appear in the middle of it?

Ye Qin had many doubts in his heart, and tried to go out of the Taoist temple, wanting to explore the truth.

According to common sense, if you enter this Taoist temple and visualize the changes in the supernatural powers brought about by objects, you will not be able to get out.

But when he stood at the door of the Taoist temple and saw the scene outside clearly, Ye Qin was at a loss.

As far as the eye can see, the mountains are full of verdant, the majestic peaks stand in the clouds, and under the illumination of the sun, the sea of clouds is churning, and the cliffs are shining in an instant, and the strange peaks are fully revealed.

The mountains are nowhere to be seen, and a few birds occasionally pass under the clear blue sky, and the original ink painting scroll instantly becomes vivid, and the artistic conception is long.

This is not a mountain that Ye Qin is familiar with, or even a scene he has seen, everything in front of him is so unfamiliar.

"Did I cross over again?!"

Ye Qin complained, feeling unbelievable, he sensed the power in his body, but fortunately, his cultivation was still there.

So what's going on now?

But just now he was obviously in the tomb, how could he come here in the blink of an eye, and even the visualization was magnified several times, becoming the same existence as in reality.

Such a strange experience really made him unbelievable.

Ye Qin looked back, the Taoist temple stood in the deep mountains, at first glance it seemed to rise from the ground, surrounded by clouds and mist, among the mountains, full of wonder.

The golden sunlight sprinkled on the Taoist temple, plated with a faint layer of gold edges, looked so magical.

It seems to have always been here, and it has been here for a long time.

Rao is Ye Qin boasted that he had seen a lot of strong winds and waves, and he was also a little shocked at this time.

Fortunately, the cultivation and realm are still there, according to Ye Qin's current ability, there are very few people who can hurt him, unless he uses hot weapons, so with the confidence to settle down, Ye Qin is not flustered.

Since I can't see it through for a while, I just don't want to think about it, and I will find the answer sooner or later.

"Even if you really cross over, it's just a big deal to change places and continue to cultivate."

With the idea that what has come is safe, Ye Qin began to explore around.

And when he left for a moment, there was a rustling sound in the grass not far away.

I saw a young man, dark-skinned and emaciated, holding an axe and wearing a coarse cloth shirt, looking at the Taoist temple in front of him with shocked eyes.

The man, a nearby woodcutter, was chopping wood in the mountains as usual that day, but he saw a sudden appearance and shine in the sun.

The woodcutter couldn't help but rub his eyes, and at first he thought he was hallucinating, but he looked at it again.

The emerald green serpent crawled out of the Taoist temple, and each scale shone with a strange look, which really looked extraordinary.

He couldn't help but hold his breath until the big snake slowly crawled away, and then cautiously approached the Taoist temple.

The woodcutter had been to the mountain more than once, and was no stranger to it, having climbed it not long ago, and was sure that there were no buildings in the place at that time.

This Taoist temple seems to have appeared out of thin air, how can anyone build a Taoist temple in a few days? What's more, it is still built in this kind of deep mountain old forest.

The closer he got to the Taoist temple, the more he could feel the good aura coming from it, and that feeling he couldn't describe in words.

The appearance of the Taoist temple seems to be quite historical, and the sense of time is coming, but it has only appeared for a short time, how can it give people a sense of being through the vicissitudes of wind and frost.

The woodcutter boldly asked, "Is there anyone?" ”

There was no movement in the temple, and almost no one existed.

The woodcutter subconsciously clenched the axe in his hand, as if this would bring him a sense of security, and he walked in cautiously.

There is nothing unusual in the Taoist temple, just like the usual layout, but it doesn't look big.

The woodcutter walked towards the main hall with suspicion, and a shadow fell above his head, and he subconsciously raised his head.

A pair of beast eyes are not angry and self-imposing, staring at themselves fiercely, and their sinuous bodies are like endless green mountains, hovering over the main hall, full of indescribable majesty.

It makes people feel a sense of awe from the bottom of their hearts.

"Snake Fairy spare your life!"

Thinking of the big snake that he saw before coming out of the Taoist temple, the woodcutter's knees suddenly weakened, and with a muffled clang, even the axe fell to the ground.

He hurriedly knelt on the ground, kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, and for a while his heart was like a drum, as if he was about to jump out of his chest, and he regretted rashly stepping into this temple.

However, there was no movement overhead.

The woodcutter opened half of his eyes, and the shadow on the ground remained motionless, like a statue of a bottle.

He swallowed and raised his head boldly, and the serpent maintained its previous position without any change.

It turned out to be just a snake statue, but it was too lifelike, so it was fake.

The woodcutter wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, his back was already soaked with cold sweat at the moment, this snake statue was too real, especially the beast eyes.

It really feels like you're being watched, and it makes your scalp tingle.

The woodcutter looked away, only to notice that there was a female statue next to the serpent.

It's just that this woman is covered with tulle, and she can't see her true face clearly, but the temperament of her body is like white snow in spring, and like a snow lotus on a high mountain, she only feels that the ice is clear and jade, and it is sacred and extraordinary.

The woodcutter bowed solemnly to the statue of the snake and the statue of the fairy.

"The kid has no intention of offending, and I hope that Daxian will not blame him."

The woodcutter looked at the snake statue, and felt more and more that it was inexplicably similar to the big snake he had seen coming out of the Taoist temple before.

Could it be that the snake statue came to life and transformed into a big snake?!

"It's all here, I have to put incense on the immortal master."

When the woodcutter saw that there was incense on the table on the side, he hurriedly got up, stepped forward religiously, lit it with a fire in the middle of the ding, and then knelt down and bowed again, respectfully offering incense.

On the other side, Ye Qin was still exploring in this mountain, and he was already far away from the range where the Taoist temple was located.

I saw that the surrounding trees were flourishing, the green canopy spread wantonly into the distance, and the insects and birds were singing endlessly, and it was obvious that this was also a good place for Zhong Lingyuxiu.

The tender green leaves are verdant, and small insects are faintly visible, crawling slowly along the lines in the veins.

There was a faint fragrance in the air, and unknown flowers were clustered one after another, like stars dotting the meadows, attracting bees and butterflies.

Ye Qin thought it was an illusion at first, but what he saw and heard along the way was too real.

If it's an illusion, it's impossible not to be aware of it.

Moreover, Ye Qin's own spiritual power is strong, and he has mastered the magic power of illusion, so let's ask what kind of illusion can trap him.

Inevitably, one after another doubts surfaced in Ye Qin's mind.

"What the hell is this place?"

The mountains are covered with green feathers, like big birds perched here, and the lush trees and the vast blue sky complement each other, like a picture scroll in the hands of a famous artist.

Finally, Ye Qin crawled about a few dozen meters away, and vaguely heard movement in front of him.

Ye Qin was overjoyed and stepped forward.

I saw a pavilion not far away, and there was an old man under the pavilion, and his hair was white and drooping.

He was wearing a half-worn robe, and his face was kind and kind, looking like a fairy wind and bones.

There is also a medium-sized tripod next to it, and there is a fire under the tripod, and the old man throws medicinal herbs into the tripod from time to time, and it seems that he is cooking something.

Looking at the old man's unusual dress, as well as such a move, Ye Qin thought thoughtfully, "This dress, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like an ordinary person." ”

"Isn't this person capable of any magical powers?"

Suddenly appearing here, and meeting such a person again, it is difficult not to make Ye Qin think about it.

But Ye Qin didn't find any special energy in the old man, thinking that he guessed wrong, it was indeed an ordinary person, but the appearance of this fairy wind bone was quite bluffing.

Ye Qin was full of confusion about his sudden arrival in this strange place, wanting to figure out what was going on. Combined with the old man's dress, even if you can't solve the puzzle, maybe you can get some useful information.

"Hey, old man, who are you? Where is this? ”

Ye Qin blurted out subconsciously, but forgot that others couldn't understand what he said.

However, the old man suddenly raised his head and looked around in disbelief, but found that there was no one around, so he couldn't help but talk to himself, and muttered softly: "Strange, who made the noise just now?" ”

"Could it be that he is old and old, and even has auditory hallucinations?"

Ye Qin's five senses were keen, and he was blessed by cultivation, and he also heard the old man talking to himself, and his expression was slightly surprised.

"Will he be able to understand what I'm saying?"

Ye Qin is now in the realm, and he can't speak people, and the words he says are just chaotic hissing sounds to others. Just now, he just subconsciously spoke, but then he realized that something was wrong, but he didn't want this old man to understand?

In order to verify the conjecture in his heart, Ye Qin climbed towards the pavilion and spoke again: "Uncle, who is you?" Where is this? ”

The old man who was addicted to alchemy didn't notice the movement not far away.

It wasn't until the voice sounded again just now that he suddenly raised his head, but he was so frightened by the scene in front of him that he couldn't help but tremble, and his face was almost white.

A big snake came to him unconsciously, and he could even speak!
