Chapter 1 Bankruptcy of the Sect
"Apprentice, I have good news for you."
"What's the good news, master?"
"Our Xuanyun Temple has gone out of business."
“……”
Qingyun Mountain, on the stone steps of Xuanyun Temple, an old Taoist priest with a rickety back, and a handsome young man stared at each other.
Long.
Jiang Tian came back to his senses, his expression was wooden, incredible, and his voice trembled: "Master, are you kidding, our Xuanyun Guan family has a great cause, how can it go out of business?" Didn't an old man named Hanako come yesterday and asked for food and gave us fifty yuan? ”
"Stinky boy, what can you do with fifty dollars? And you don't know when you're an old man? Did you secretly take the money down the mountain to buy pig's trotters to eat last night? ”
As soon as he said this, the old Taoist priest immediately blew his beard and glared, if the fifty yuan was still there, their Taoist temple would last for two days.
"Master, I'm sorry, I'm going to hunt, I'll ......"
Jiang Tian smiled awkwardly, scratched his head, and turned around to leave as he spoke.
"Stop!"
However, the old Taoist priest stopped him, looked at him with a straight face and said, "Tian'er, tell the master, do you yearn for the bottom of the mountain?" ”
Jiang Tian saw the old man's serious expression, and his heart suddenly struck, isn't it, this old man can see what he thinks in his heart?
Indeed, he had long been eager to go down the mountain.
Jiang Tian has been on this mountain for ten years, except for the old man, he is accompanied by snakes, rats, insects and ants every day, and he can't see a living person for a year and a half, let alone the opposite sex.
"This, master, what do you say, the apprentice will wait for you for a lifetime and give you a pension to the end."
Jiang Tian scratched his head and said.
Hearing this, the old Taoist priest said indifferently: "You go down the mountain." ”
"You went up the mountain at the age of eighteen, and now that a full decade has passed, it's time to go out and have a look."
Ten years ago, Jiang Tian was inexplicably taken up the mountain by an old Taoist priest on the way to school, and he said that he was born with a Taoist body and a good seedling of natural cultivation.
For the next ten years, the old man trained him in almost all kinds of inhumane ways.
Every day, I got up before dawn to practice, fetched water and firewood, planted and dug medicine, and learned some messy things, and I couldn't rest until midnight.
It is said to be resting, but in fact, it is also cultivating, meditating, exhaling and absorbing qi.
Day after day, year after year.
In the past few years, he tried to escape countless times, but each time he was caught and beaten by the old man, and even almost lost his life several times, and since then he has not dared to mention the matter of descending the mountain.
But who knows, this time the old man actually took the initiative to call himself down the mountain.
"Master, you ...... Are you serious? ”
Jiang Tian thought he had misheard, and plucked out his ears in disbelief.
"I'm not joking with you, the sect has closed down, why don't you go down the mountain? Do you still have to wait for the old man to support you? ”
The old Taoist priest raised his eyebrows and blew his beard.
Jiang Tian saw that he was not joking, and he was immediately ecstatic, did the day he was looking forward to finally come?
"Master, can I really go down the mountain?"
He confirmed again.
The old Taoist priest ignored him, but just sighed faintly.
"I know you hate me, I have been nesting on this mountain for more than ten years, getting up earlier than chickens and going to bed later than dogs every day, but I am doing this for your good."
"You are born with a Dao body, and you started late, I can't watch a good seedling be destroyed......"
Jiang Tian's expression froze, to be honest, his feelings for his master were very complicated, if it weren't for him, he would probably have graduated from college, found a job, and started a family, right?
But it was indeed him who taught himself this skill.
"Tian'er, I can't bear you for the teacher......"
The old Taoist priest suddenly spoke again, looking at Jiang Tian with ruddy eyes.
Jiang Tian was stunned, this was the first time he had seen the old man's expression.
"Master, needless to say, it's all over."
Jiang Tian shook his head.
"Let's go, there's nothing to bring on the mountain, just some elixir and a broken sword, if you don't dislike it, bring it with you." Get out of your own life, don't embarrass the old man, you know? ”
The old man handed him a packet of things.
Jiang Tian stretched out his hand to take it, knelt heavily on the ground and kowtowed to the old Taoist priest a few times: "Master, cherish!" ”
After saying that, he turned around and walked down the mountain.
The old Taoist priest looked at Jiang Tian's back as he left, but he smiled with relief, and then slowly closed his eyes.
"Go, go."
I heard the old Taoist priest whispering.
Jiang Tianqiang held back tears and walked a few steps, and suddenly he suddenly turned around and said, "Master, you wait, wait for me to ......"
However, before he finished speaking, he found that the old Taoist priest had closed his eyes and was sitting there motionless.
He was startled, and quickly stepped forward and shook the old Taoist priest and said, "Master, old man, what's wrong with you?" Go to sleep, go back to sleep, don't catch a cold here! ”
Can......
Let Jiang Tian say anything.
The old Taoist priest didn't react at all.
He reached out and sniffed out, and found that the old Taoist priest was no longer breathing.
A gust of autumn wind blew, and the old Taoist priest fell straight on the stone steps, but there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth.
It was as if he was really just asleep.
Jiang Tian looked at the body of the old Taoist priest, didn't say a word, and buried him silently.
After a long, long time in front of the grave, he finally got up and said:
"Old man, I used to hate you, but now I can't ......"
After saying this, he took out the long sword left by the old Taoist priest, and directly turned his whole person into a sword light and disappeared into the sky.
If there were cultivators here at this moment, they would be surprised that there were people who could fly with swords in this era of the end of the law......
…………
Daxia, on the outskirts of Yunzhou City, in front of an unremarkable house.
This is the hometown that Jiang Tian has never forgotten for ten years, and the place where he has remembered since he was a child.
At this time, although the bungalow in front of me looked dilapidated, it was very clean, and there should be people living in it.
"It's back, it's finally back."
Jiang Tian stood outside the door, looking at the familiar scene in front of him, even he who hadn't cried for a long time, his eyes began to moisten.
He didn't know how many times he fantasized about this scene in front of him, and every time he recalled his life here, it was his belief and motivation to persist on the mountain.
"Mom and Dad, sister, are you okay?"
Jiang Tianqiang suppressed the excitement in his heart and pushed open the mottled door.
I stepped through the door and walked in, and everything was the same as when I left.
Familiar yard.
Familiar old wells.
and the familiar porch.
"Nothing has changed, nothing has changed......"
Jiang Tian let out a long breath of turbid air to stabilize his mind.
Just as he was about to happily go in and surprise his family.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a frightened shout from inside the bungalow:
"Cripple Yang, get out, don't touch me, get out!"
"Jiang Wan'er, you just follow me, don't you still want to go to college? Just give it to me once, as long as you give it once, I'll give you 10,000 yuan as tuition, how about it? ”
"You bastard, don't touch me, woo woo, take your dirty hands away!"
"Smack!"
"Stinky bitch, you dare to hit me, shame on me, you forced me!"
…………
Hearing the voice, Jiang Tian's body stiffened.
The voice......
Is my sister being bullied?
In an instant, Jiang Tian was furious, the monstrous killing intent broke out of his body, and his body appeared outside the door as if he was teleporting, and he directly kicked open the door and roared:
"Dare to bully my sister, look for death!!"
