The pungent smell of fish continued to pound her brain, and her whole body was like falling into an ice cave, and a wordless fear hit her heart.

Is this the world of cultivating immortals?

If you are not careful, you will die, even if you are as strong as Elder Wang, you can't escape a dry bone.

Although immortality is good, but this road of immortality is paved with corpses, if the person is gone, what is the meaning of cultivating immortals?

"Gu, Gu family's little baby!"

Suddenly, a slight call sounded, pulling Gu Nian's chaotic thoughts back.

Hearing the voice, Gu Nian seemed to have found the backbone of the main heart, and hurriedly ran towards Elder Wang.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

The old man's face was pale, his thin body sat upright, and his breath seemed to be absent, like a broken candle, as if it could be extinguished at any moment.

"The king... Master, I ......"

Seeing Elder Wang's appearance covered in blood and dying, Gu Nian finally couldn't hold back, she squatted in front of the old man, her eyes were red.

Maybe it's because she's too young, or maybe it's because she's shrouded in fear and too scared, and the teenage girl's snot bubbles are bubbling out.

Although he is a human being in two lives, understands countless people's feelings and sophistication, and knows how to judge the situation, what is the use of this.

In the face of life and death, but ashes.

Elder Wang's cloak was scattered, like a withered body with declining qi, and he had long lost the "master" demeanor when he came.

"Gu Xiaowa, don't be afraid of ......"

He endured the decline, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his thin fingers rubbed the girl's head.

"Good doll, I will respond to this sound of the ancestor, but it's a pity that the ancestor forcibly borrowed the aura and burned the essence and blood, and now the limit has come, I can't escort you, cough cough cough ......"

Elder Wang coughed up blood at the corner of his mouth, and he took out a bloody jade pendant from his arms and handed it to the girl.

"Take this and go all the way forward, and at the end of the road there is a tall mountain gate, and there is ...... It is Taiyue Gate. ”

"After entering the Taiyue Gate, remember to go to the Rejuvenation Valley and give this thing to the master of the valley, and he will take care of you for me."

He raised his finger and pointed to the mountains in the distance, with a little envy in his eyes, but finally lowered his arm and smiled bitterly.

"Remember, remember, the disciples and grandchildren have remembered, teacher, ancestor, don't speak......" Gu Nian begged.

"It's fine."

Elder Wang smiled indifferently, took out a palm-sized coarse cloth bag from his waist and handed it to the girl, looking at her kindly.

Instructed: "Gu Xiaowa, you have to remember that cultivating immortals can be expected to live forever, but the immortal road is vast, and this road is destined to be full of corpses, so don't trust others." ”

He wiped tears from the girl's cheeks.

"If you want to live in the world of cultivating immortals, tears can't solve any problems, if the means are not ruthless enough, they will eventually become a stepping stone on the road to becoming immortals."

Gu Nian looked at the old man blankly, let him wipe away his tears, and sobbed intermittently: "Disciple, disciple...... Remember! ”

"Good good ......"

Elder Wang said "yes" several times, as if he had let go of his regrets, and looked at the sky blankly.

"The fame is dust, and time is gold, but it's a pity that your father will never understand that the road to immortality ......"

Elder Wang lowered his head, his voice forever stopped at the phrase "Immortal Dao", and there was no more life.

Gu Nian opened his mouth, but didn't make a sound.

Elder Wang's words kept echoing in her mind, causing her to fall silent.

Cultivating immortals, for the sake of immortality?

Gu Nian was confused, she was really unwilling to be ordinary, if she really died like this, would she be willing?

Just like her father in this life, for the sake of the so-called family business and power, the quota that should have belonged to Gu Wu finally fell on her head.

Since ancient times, women seem to be the weaker side, and it is a man who has made meritorious achievements, and it is also a man who has been knighted.

Even if she returns to Qinghe County safely now, the best result is just a husband and a child, and she is dying.

People are going to die after all.

If there really is the legendary road of immortality, why can't you fight hard and take your own way.

Even if you lose in the end, you will die as you deserve!

After spending most of the day burying Elder Wang, Gu Nian got up, as if he had made up his mind, and walked towards the mountain without hesitation.

Gu Nian has never been a conformist person, she has more than 30 years of education in the new century, and benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith are even more profound in her heart, but now this is not the big country in the past, this is a world where people can die at any time.

She didn't want to die, and she didn't want to accept her fate!

……

In the middle of Mount Taiyue, on a towering high mountain, stands a huge stone gate.

The stone gate is old and magnolia, leaving traces of the erosion of the sun and the moon, and its top is engraved with three desolate characters of "Taiyue Gate".

Under the stone gate, two gray-robed disciples were leaning against the stone gate, drowsy.

"Harm! When is this day going to be the end? One of them was tall and thin, as thin as a bamboo pole, and he couldn't help but complain when he saw a long sigh.

The other person was a little bloated, smiled, and said, "Soon, I heard that there have been a lot of new disciples recruited in the sect recently, and when the time comes, someone will naturally take over the job of guarding the mountain gate." ”

"I think about it, the sect has been hidden for too long, and the old ones who have gone have left, and we are left with the high or low, and if we don't come to the new disciples, I'm afraid we will have to see the mountain gate for a lifetime."

"That's right."

The two sighed at the same time, and they couldn't help but feel a little depressed in their hearts, Taiyuemen had been deposited for too long, and it had already lived up to the prosperity of the year.

"I really don't know what the elders think...... Well? Wait, how can there be a little doll? ”

The tall and thin man was about to continue complaining, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure on the mountain road in the distance.

When I got closer, I saw that the other party was only a teenage girl, disheveled and unkempt, like a little beggar.

"Stop!"

The fat man also saw the person coming clearly, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop the female doll, and said sharply: "It's forbidden here, don't leave quickly!" ”

The person who came was Gu Nian.

Since she left that day, she has been walking non-stop towards the mountains, but she does not want to be lost in the mountains, and she has been hungry for a few days.

"The king, the king is ......"

She trembled and opened her mouth, wanting to tell her what happened on the road, but due to physical exhaustion, she fell directly to the ground, still holding the green and transparent jade pendant in her hand.

The fat man and the thin man looked at each other, as if asking what to do next, the two of them had been guarding the mountain gate for many days, and they had never encountered such a scene.

"It's ......"

When the tall and thin man saw the jade pendant in the girl's hand, he always felt that this jade pendant was somewhat familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"What's wrong?"

The fat man followed up and asked, he followed the thin man's gaze, his brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes glared.

"Isn't this Elder Wang's jade pendant!"

"Elder Wang?"

"Hmmm! I've seen it, and I can't be wrong! ”

The fat man hurriedly picked up the faint girl, and said to the tall and thin man: "Quick! Go and inform the master, I remember that Elder Wang went down the mountain not long ago, and I heard that he was going to pick up his disciples, but now he asked this female doll to bring the jade pendant back, I am afraid that something will happen! ”
