Chapter 105: The Truth of the Year
His master Zhang Laodao was afraid that Li Qing would be hindered in this step, and he wasted decades and years before he used his innate vitality to empower and pass on his skills, and he did not hesitate to spend all his true qi to leave a wisp of breath for Li Qing. Fortunately, after Li Qing was improved by Jin Dan, his physique was different, and he retained seven inches of true qi.
It turned out that even those young masters of the true cultivator sect had taken more than ten or twenty years to complete this step, and even had to rely on pills and treasures to raise their cultivation to nine inches of true qi. "If this is the case, Master can cultivate 12 inches of True Qi at the age of forty-three without relying on external forces, relying on himself, and his talent is simply appalling. ”
Li Qing thought of the departing old man's back and sighed slightly. There were so many cultivators in the Tang Dynasty, but there were dozens of people gathered in this Luobei Tower, why didn't he meet the master? But ordinary cultivators know the difference between Qi cultivation, Kanli, Dragon and Tiger and other realms, why doesn't Master know anything?
Li Qing's doubts became heavier and heavier. At this time, I heard the sound of talking and laughing over there, and sometimes mentioned the word old Taoist. Li Qing looked at the ninth girl, revealing a puzzled look. The Nine Girls replied, "They are talking about an old Taoist priest who is looking for immortals. Li Qing's heart jumped suddenly.
The ninth girl didn't realize it, just frowned slightly, and said: "It is said that this old Taoist priest has been a true qi for decades, walking around in the Tang Dynasty, looking for immortals and visiting the Tao, and it didn't disappear until a few days ago. Strange to say, this old Taoist priest is always looking for immortals to visit the Tao, but he is followed by a cultivator, who has followed him for decades and has never left. ”
Li Qing was taken aback, and said in a lost voice: "Follow a cultivator?" "Yes, it is a cultivator. The Nine Girls glanced at him, a little strange, but they didn't pay attention to it, and said slowly: "The cultivator who followed him didn't seem to have any intention of harming him, but he didn't let him meet the rest of the cultivators. ”
"Whenever other monks took pity on the old Taoist priest's talent and wanted to instruct the old Taoist priest, they would be intimidated, threatened, and even killed by the person next to him. In the end, the cultivators in the Tang Dynasty no longer paid attention to it, and only let the old Taoist priest travel around, and the master who followed him followed him all the way for decades. ”
The ninth girl sighed and said, "This old Taoist priest is only staying in the realm of true qi release now. Because he doesn't know anything about cultivation, and he doesn't seem to know the division of the realm of cultivation, he doesn't know that at this step, the true qi should be built and condensed in order to go to the next step. Because of this, that old Dao has been in the Qi cultivation realm for decades. ”
Li Qing's hands and feet were cold, and he didn't realize that his back was wet with sweat. Master, he is indeed followed by a cultivator, and he is also a figure among the cultivators who can be called a senior master. Kan Li's character, or the dragon and tiger real person? is just such a profound cultivator, why should he follow the master and him for decades?
What is his purpose? Although he had known that this matter was strange, after the truth was really told by the nine girls, Li Qing only felt a chill all over his body. There was a layer of haze pressing on Li Qing's heart, and he secretly said in his heart: I have to cultivate into a dragon and tiger real person as soon as possible, so that I can be qualified to understand the truth and seek justice for my master!
Who is this person? Monk Kanli? Longhu Zhenren? What is his relationship with the master, and why has he followed him for decades? If there is a grudge, why not directly kill Zhang Laodao, who only cultivates qi? Such a senior master, instead, will waste his own decades of time
For a shadow that follows behind, never leaving an inch?
If there is no hatred or resentment, why should he be allowed to stop at the peak of Qi cultivation, and not let him come into contact with the cultivators, and not let him go to build a foundation and condense the evil? Si Tiantai separates the secular from the cultivators in order to enable the people of the world to have a stable world. And Master, like a worldly person, was isolated from the rest of the cultivators, what was the intention of the person who had followed him for decades?
Li Qing seemed calm on his face, but his heart was already turbulent. "It is said that the cultivation of the master next to the old Taoist priest is unfathomable, but in fact, how can he compare to his father?" "You know, when the old Taoist priest came to my Wenchang Pavilion that day, he was bumped into by me, and then I trapped him for nearly a month, almost trapped him to death, and I didn't see the other party rescue this old Taoist. ”
The sound of talking and laughing at the main table over there came into his ears, and Li Qing couldn't help but be shocked. It was the young master who spoke. Li Qing turned his head to look and saw him sitting on the main seat, chatting and laughing with other people. One person said with a smile: "Everyone has more or less heard about the young master who came to test the mysterious master that day, but they don't know the details. Why don't you come and tell you about it?"
This person is only twenty-three or four-year-old appearance, although he is also a cultivator, but he has not cultivated true qi, but he is quite temperamental, about the beginning of qi. There are quite a few people like him, but to be able to sit at the main table, this person is obviously not low. Tian Meng is a disciple of a big man in Si Tiantai.
The young master glanced at him, and immediately smiled: "Since Brother Tian Dao wants me to tell this story, then I will tell it." "You all know that the master beside the old Taoist priest has been following him for decades, and he has not been allowed to come into contact with cultivators above the Qi cultivation realm. ”
"Over the years, the cultivators of the Tang Dynasty have mostly stopped paying attention to the old Taoist priest who has traveled around, after all, they can't afford to make trouble with the profound Taoist beside him for the sake of such an old Taoist priest who cultivates qi. ”
The young master said slowly: "At that time, the old Taoist priest came to Wenchang Pavilion, and I was very curious about how profound the Taoist of the cultivator beside him was, so with the help of the strange things of this sect, he shifted the feng shui pattern, changed the great array of protectors, and trapped him in it. ”
Gu Xun was silent and did not speak. But another person smiled and said: "What is the result?" The young master smiled and said: "The other party didn't dare to offend me Wenchang Pavilion, so he just let me toss the old Taoist priest half to death and let him be trapped in the mountains." It's a pity that he was able to get away with it in the end. ”
There was a low snap. The wine glass in Li Qing's hand suddenly shattered and turned into a hand full of powder. The noise was not loud, and no one else noticed it in the laughter, but the ninth girl was at the same table with him, and naturally noticed the abnormal movement of the broken wine glass. She raised her eyebrows slightly, and when she looked at Li Qing again, she couldn't help but feel palpitations in her heart.
The scholar's face was slightly gloomy, and the cold light in his eyes was faint, like nothing, like stars, like night light. Such a gloomy look was completely different from the gentle scholar in the impression of the ninth girl, which made her slightly suspicious. It was only a moment before the scholar's face returned to the same indifferent appearance as before.
The Nine Girls looked at him deeply, but did not ask. Li Qingping calmed down and whispered: "It seems that the master next to that old Taoist is not very powerful, at least he is still afraid of the pavilion master of Wenchang Pavilion. "I've heard about it. ”
The ninth girl withdrew her gaze from his face, and then said lightly: "The young master came that day."
With the help of the strange things in the pavilion, the arrangement of the mountains, rocks and trees was changed, and the feng shui pattern was changed, so that the great array of protectors changed, and the old Taoist priest was trapped for nearly a month. But the master did not come to the rescue, and he was not necessarily afraid of Wenchang Pavilion, according to rumors, although the master had followed the old Taoist for decades, he did not care about the life or death of the old Taoist. ”
Li Qing said to herself: "Don't you take life and death to heart?" The Nine Girls said: "I heard that there were some cultivators who felt that this old Taoist priest was extremely talented and had excellent understanding, and he intended to give advice, but in the end they were stopped by the person next to him, and even killed. After the incident in Wenchang Pavilion, he sat down and confirmed one thing. Li Qing asked, "What's the matter?"
"This old Taoist priest is indeed extremely perceptive. The ninth girl said: "When the young master first came to trap him, he successively changed the feng shui pattern and other formations, so that he was lost and unable to leave, and even put in many fierce birds and beasts in the end, and transferred the water source, melons and fruits and other food, so that this old Taoist priest cut off the food and water source, and fought with those beasts for many days. Although he was very embarrassed in the end, he finally broke the formation. ”
Speaking of this, the nine girls were quite appreciative, nodded and said: "The dignified Wenchang Pavilion's guardian formation was broken by this old Taoist priest with qi cultivation, after this incident, it can be seen that this old Taoist priest is indeed extremely perceptive. The reason why that profound figure has been by his side for decades may also have something to do with this. ”
Master, he regarded the runes and formations as some kind of mysterious trajectory, analyzed from the root, and looked at from the essence. With his eyesight, he was able to break out of the formation, but it was still expected by Li Qing. But those fierce birds and beasts of prey......
Li Qing turned his head to look at the young master who was chatting and laughing at the banquet, and a murderous aura flashed in his eyes, and it disappeared in an instant. He knew that the master had cultivated immortals all his life, but he didn't know that those cultivators were beside him, but the master was like an ordinary worldly person, isolated from the outside.
He entered the mountain full of hope, but was tricked by the monks in the mountain. Trapped for twenty-eight days, he experienced life and death. Thinking of what happened to his master, Li Qing's eyes were full of coldness, and he almost wanted to draw his sword and kill someone. However, he glanced at the Nine Girls, and he finally suppressed this murderous aura temporarily.
He was invited by the Nine Girls to come to Luobei Building, and if he made a move here, it would inevitably make the Nine Girls very difficult. What's more, in Luoyang City, under Si Tiantai, it is not a place to do it, and Li Qing doesn't know if this young master of Wenchang Pavilion has any means hidden in him, or if there are people who secretly support him.
"Wenchang Pavilion. One day, I should go for it. Try the methods of the Pavilion Master of Wenchang Pavilion!" He remembered the note in his notes about this paragraph. It is rumored that there is a spirit in Nanyang County in the territory of Datang called Shitang Mountain, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the birds and beasts are psychic, and there are immortals living in seclusion. The poor road traveled thousands of miles to visit, but finally returned in vain, and Xu had no chance to meet the immortals.
Note: The poor road was lost in the mountains, and he walked for 29 days, and he had to get out after hardships. This mountain is only a radius of dozens of miles, and it can be poor for 29 days, and there is such a mysterious place, it must be the residence of immortals. Although he has experienced hardships, he is happy in his heart, and such strange things are not common sense and can be explained, so it can be seen that the things of the gods are not vain, and there will be a way forward above the release of true qi.
Everyone talked and laughed, but the food and wine had not yet arrived. It's just that everyone came to the banquet, mainly to make friends with the young master, and they have already tasted many jade plate delicacies. And because the status of the young master is extremely high, no one in the field showed displeasure.
