are very familiar with each other, there is no need to be polite, but they are unfamiliar, what to say, this is the usual way for the two to get along.

"It seems that you are doing well here, I thought it would take a long time for you to grow up, but now it seems that you are doing better than I thought, and you can become an inspector in just a few months, worthy of being my apprentice. ”

Qingxuan Lao Dao stroked his beard, saw Ning Yan pouting, shook off the dust, and then said: "The inheritance ceremony is my last hand, I didn't plan to use it so quickly, no matter how bad the Taoist temple is, it's still okay to last for a year and a half, you appeared a little early." ”

One and a half years..... Ning Yan almost scolded, you took all the money away, and there were no pilgrims, it was difficult for the Taoist temple to last for a month in that situation at that time, "I can't eat, if there is no other way at that time, I already plan to sell the Taoist temple." ”

There is no special reason, it is that he is poor, and if there is no special change in the inheritance ceremony, he does have the idea of selling the Taoist temple.

However, as he said before, the Taoist Temple is his home, and he doesn't want to do it unless he has to, and the disappearance of Lao Dao for no reason also makes him angry.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Qingxuan Lao Dao's face changed, and he said with a smile, "If you really dare to sell the Taoist temple, you will kill your relatives as a teacher." ”

"Stop talking nonsense, I just want to know why this is. Ning Yan put down the tea and his expression became serious.

After being silent for a while, Qingxuan Lao Dao glanced at him and said, "What do you know?"

"Cause and effect knife, I seem to have a knife soul in my body, I can be fearless of those causes and effects, and because of these reasons, I can survive until now, otherwise you may have to collect my body. Ning Yan said sneeringly.

"Didn't I tell you, you came a little early, according to the original plan, you came here, I have returned, you will not be in danger at that time. Qing Xuan Lao Dao sighed.

Blame me for that..... Ning Yan said angrily: "Do you know what it means to be unhappy, you don't even leave me a little money, and you still want me to maintain the operation of the Taoist Temple according to your original plan, do you think it is possible." ”

"Oh, I seem to have heard someone say that the Taoist temple can definitely be carried forward and done better than me when it is handed over to him, and I am just giving him a chance. ”

This sounds familiar..... Ning Yan touched his nose and waved his hand, "At that time, Tong Yan was unscrupulous, how could he take it seriously." ”

This is indeed the cowhide that Ning Yan bragged about before, mainly because the money he got every time he went out to run errands, all of which fell into the hands of Lao Dao, obviously made a lot of money, but there was no change in his daily life.

Coarse tea and light rice are not enough to describe his life at that time, and in such a society with a developed network, the flowers are gradually becoming charming, and Ning Yan has a feeling of guarding a treasure mountain and having nowhere to start.

It is inevitable that he will be a little resentful, he has wanted to ask Lao Tao for money a few times, but in the end he was refused, the reason for the decision is that there is no money, and then he will take the Taoist temple as an example, Ning Yan was angry for a while, so he blew a cowhide.

Qing Xuan Lao Dao did not continue this topic, and bowed slightly: "Is that all?"

He wasn't surprised at all by the existence of the causal knife on Ning Yan's body, but he was a little surprised that he could know the name of the causal knife, but he didn't show it.

"The causal knife seems to be a former holy soldier in the immortal cultivation realm, it can restrain the darkness, I wonder why this thing appeared on me. This was the biggest doubt in his mind.

It can be said that the reason why he was able to step into the immortal cultivation world had a lot to do with it.

"There are so many whys, I just collected some materials and did an experiment, but now I see that you can still be alive and kicking, which proves that this experiment has finally succeeded, and my plan is not wrong. ”

Qing Xuan Lao Dao said slowly, and finally sighed, but there was obviously some smugness in his eyes.

"Finally?" Ning Yan always felt that something was wrong when he heard another meaning in these words.

"Did I say it just now?" Qing Xuan Lao Dao's expression stiffened slightly, and she regretted it when she said it for a while, seeing Ning Yan's burning eyes, he laughed, "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that similar experiments have been done before." ”

Similar experiments, is it like him? Ning Yan's face darkened, and he stared at Qing Xuan Lao Dao with unkind eyes: "So, there were people who were tested by you before?"

"yes. Seeing that he couldn't hide, Qing Xuan Lao Dao sighed, and had to explain: "This is a great experiment, and it is also the original intention of the establishment of the dreamless view, and the masters of the dreamless view have been conducting this great experiment for generations, oh, don't worry, since you are still alive now, it means that the experiment has been successful and there is no danger." ”

Wait a minute..... Ning Yan keenly caught several meanings in the old man's words, he pursed his lips, intending to clarify this matter, "I remember you told me at the beginning that the purpose of dreamless view is perseverance and craftsmanship, when did you change your original intention?"

Qing Xuan Lao Dao nodded, and said thoughtfully: "That's right, this experiment is a craft, I have no dreams, and the ancestors of the past generations have never given up, and have always insisted on this road." ”

So does the opening sentence mean that..... Ning Yan took a deep breath, resisted the urge to pounce and hit people, and asked, "What about the people who experimented before? ”

He felt like he was getting closer to the truth.

"They, alas, they are all your senior brothers, in fact, we are not dreamless and should also be full of talents, but they are all dedicated to this great experiment, they are brave, and every time they think of it, they are saddened. ”

Ning Yan's face was strange, "So what about them?"

"Sacrificed, sacrificed for the experiment, they didn't survive in the last hurdle, this is a big regret for the teacher's life, fortunately with you, you didn't disappoint me, you are stronger than your senior brother, you were really right to choose you in the first place. Qingxuan said with emotion.

"Then why have I never heard you say it, no, this experiment will kill people?!" Ning Yan finally came back to his senses, what kind of experiment, so many people died, and he had goosebumps inexplicably.

Qingxuan Lao Dao coughed dryly, with a straight face: "Of course there will be dead people, the reason why I haven't told you about this is not because I'm worried that you will think too much, as for you haven't seen them, it's because they died long before you were born, oh, they are buried in the mass grave in the back mountain, where there are their clothes and graves." ”

Back Mountain.... Mass grave ..... Ning Yan's eyes widened, and for some reason, he suddenly had a creepy feeling and realized something: "So, I am also one of the targets of the experiment? And what kind of inheritance ritual is actually the last level of the experiment, right? Does it mean that if I didn't succeed at that time, that would also be my burial place?"

No wonder in his memory, there was obviously no one buried in Houshan, but there was a mass grave, no wonder the inheritance ceremony was to be carried out there, isn't this just to find a good cemetery in advance?

After learning part of the truth, Ning Yan was shocked and angry, if it weren't for his scruples, he might not be able to beat Qingxuan Lao Dao, and he would definitely show his sword at this moment.

"You are still as smart as ever, worthy of being a carefully selected disciple for the teacher, you don't have to look at me like that, the people I accept apprentices are all orphans, and I also gave you the opportunity to choose the final inheritance ceremony, and I didn't force it, although the means are a little cruel, but compared to the feat after success, everything is worth it. ”

At this moment, Ning Yan had a feeling that someone had been woollen, and this person was actually his master!

"This experiment doesn't stop there, what's going on with this sword soul?" Ning Yan resisted the urge to turn his face, and there was one more thing that he hadn't figured out.

Qing Xuan's old Dao's eyes sparkled, and he smiled, "So far, I can really tell you something." ”
