......

The breeze is clear, the autumn colors are thick, and the red and yellow mountains look very gorgeous.

The Daoist priest Niu who went down the mountain and the four Dao boys had already cleaned up back and forth twice, so it was not bad to go all the way to Zhongtianmen, and he didn't encounter any danger along the way.

Especially Wang Yuanze's practice of martial arts and meditation and qi practice for a month, his physical fitness has also improved significantly, and he does not feel tired when he walks down in one breath, but there is still a feeling of unfinished, and it seems that this steep and tortuous mountain road is not so perverted.

There were also several Taoist temples near Zhongtianmen, which were used to receive visiting guests, and disciples who traveled down the mountain could also use spells to leave from here.

But now these buildings have long collapsed and been flooded by the barren grass forest, which is more desolate than the mountain, leaving only two huge mountain gate stone pillars, standing on the ridge of the knife and axe, each with a diameter of more than two meters and more than ten zhang high, like a giant rafter piercing the sky, engraved with a couplet:

"Tao is born one, life is two, negative yin and yang, heaven and earth are not its masters. ”

"To the extreme, keep quiet, know that it is always clear, and all things return to their roots. ”

The lintel has collapsed and I don't know where to go, but this couplet is like clouds and water elegant, full of natural peace, every word has a zhang more than the size, reflecting the lofty mountains and blue sky and white clouds, there is a kind of momentum that the world is in the heart, which makes people fascinated.

"This is the real immortal atmosphere!"

Standing between the mountain gates, looking at the two giant pillars rushing into the sky, Wang Yuanze's heart was emotionally turbulent.

Back then, under this mountain gate, the people who shuttled back and forth were all immortal figures who cultivated true and practiced qi.

It's a pity that time has passed, and now the immortals don't know where they have gone, leaving only this ruins and broken walls to sigh.

The black bead in the purple mansion in Wang Yuanze's eyebrows also faintly throbbed, and it seemed that the remnant soul of the Boundless Son who was sleeping in it also had some resonance.

After the Zhongshan Gate, the way down the mountain is obviously much smoother, but the trees and vines are thicker and thicker, and there is hardly a trace of sky in sight.

Walking along the mountain road where it was almost impossible to settle down, Wang Yuanze finally saw the demon vines and plants that protected the mountain as mentioned by Daoist Niu.

There is a kind of red tree, which is continuous in patches, and the leaves are like semicircular blades, and whenever birds and beasts approach, these leaves will fly out to attack.

Wang Yuanze saw with his own eyes that a big bird was cut down by the blades like flying knives, leaving only feathers flying in the sky.

And between the trees, there are more kinds of thick ancient vines, hanging and climbing like dense pythons, and some will even occasionally squirm a few times, and where these ancient vines are entrenched, there will be many bones of wild beasts, which looks creepy.

In addition to these strange trees and ancient vines, there are many kinds of bright flowers and plants in the dense forest, and even some huge mushrooms, which look like small umbrellas, and will applaud like balloons when touched lightly, spraying green smoke like poisonous mist all around, once stained by this poisonous mist, small mushrooms will soon grow on the body, whether it is a person or a bird, beast, snake and insect, it will be corrupted into mud in three or five days, and even the bone residue will not be left.

In addition to the Flying Knife Tree, the Demon Snake Vine, the Poisonous Smoke Burst Mushroom, and the Rotting Blood Silkworm.

This silkworm looks very much like a mulberry silkworm, white and fat, fat, harmless to humans and animals, but it is dozens of times larger than ordinary silkworms, the thickness of the arms, the silk threads spit out are crystal clear, and the viscosity is super strong.

Although the road down the mountain was full of thorns, the four of them all took turns with swords in their hands to open the way, and Qisha had just walked down the mountain a few days ago, so it was not particularly difficult to walk, but what he saw along the way opened Wang Yuanze's eyes, and there was no memory of the prince of the world, so he finally saw for the first time these many strange mutated animals and plants born in this land of Shenzhou.

And the more he saw, the more cautious Wang Yuanze became.

Because just like the poisonous wild fruits on the mountain, most of these things were searched and brought back from outside by the predecessors of the Qinghe faction, and were used to alchemy or to protect the mountain gate, which was very dangerous for ordinary people, and even some flowers, grasses, insects and ants that looked ordinary might be fatal if they encountered them.

"The head of the sect may not know that our Qinghe faction is not only the mountain of Chaoyang Peak, but also the seven or eight mountains nearby, and there are Taoist temples on it, but the main hall of the mountain gate is placed here!"

Daoist Niu proudly pointed to the nearby mountains and explained loudly.

Wang Yuanze could only twitch a few times to indicate that he didn't hear it.

The bigger the Qinghe faction, the more he wants to revitalize the Qinghe faction.

I thought I had taken a big advantage, but I didn't expect this pit to get deeper and bigger, and I didn't know when and what month I could complete the goal of Wuyanzi.

Alas, it seems that he is a natural hard worker, he died of exhaustion in his previous life, and he still can't get rid of his life of working for others in this life.

After six or seven hours of walking, the four of them finally descended the mountain, and the sun was already in the west.

Not far from the foot of the hill is a densely populated town, with a large river meandering through it, which looks quite lively.

Listening to the introduction of Taoist Niu, Qinghe Town used to be very large, and when it was the most prosperous thousands of years ago, it had a population of forty or fifty thousand, and it was completely a medium-sized city, and at that time there were city walls, and there were even disciples of the Qinghe faction who guarded it all year round, in order to deter those wrongdoers and prevent beasts and monsters.

However, at present, Qinghe Town and the Taoist temples on the mountain are completely dilapidated.

The city wall has long collapsed and disappeared in the barren grass and dense forest, and the population is only a few thousand, not to mention that there are no people who cultivate the true qi, and there are very few people who even walk the rivers and lakes.

After entering Qinghe Town, the atmosphere is a little better, there are many shops, restaurants, inns and restaurants on both sides of the street, but those restaurants and hotels are too lazy to say hello when they see a few Taoist priests passing by.

"Hey, a few Taoist masters, do you want to come in and have a good time!"

The only person who greeted them was a woman from a brothel on the side of the road.

However, after seeing their figures and ages, Wang Yuanze instantly made a gesture, and silently thought with his eyes and nose, nose, mouth, mouth, and heart, Lao Tzu is not a casual person.

"The head of the family is really a person with determination, my generation of cultivators asked, don't indulge in women's lust and confuse the Dao heart, it's good!" Seeing Wang Yuanze leave the door of the brothel quickly without squinting, Daoist Niu nodded with a very relieved twist.

Wang Yuanze said in his heart what does it have to do with visiting the kiln and Taoism, Taoist priests get married and have children, and the Taoist heart will be unstable if there is no balance between yin and yang for a long time, and Lao Tzu runs fast just because they are too ugly.

However, the two little Taoist boys of Liuyun Guanhai were more interested in this Qinghe Town, and looked around as they walked, especially the few prostitutes who were greased and powdered in the brothel just now, and they looked back again and again.

"Don't look at it, those women are like tigers and wolves, you will definitely be eaten if you go in so young!" Wang Yuanze said with a smile.

"Cut, we don't believe it, I used to hear the fifth elder say that women is the most lively!" Liuyun pouted.

Wang Yuanze walked forward with black lines on his head and pulling Liuyun's ears.
