Chapter 50: The Replacement of Life and Death

Seeing that Lin Yi didn't move for a long time, Wang Lao urged: "There is an abandoned house over there, there should be farm tools in it, you take the hoe first, and I will talk to you later." ”

"Abandoned house?" Lin Yi looked around, and finally found traces of the farmhouse at the bottom of the cliff, but the beams and tiles collapsed, the walls collapsed, the doors were broken, and they were hidden in the weeds, so it was difficult to distinguish.

He hesitated and walked towards the cliff, while Wang Lao glanced at Gu Wanxi's body, his eyes were gloomy, as if he remembered something from the past.

Lin Yi hunched over and walked into the farmhouse, tiptoeing for fear of breaking the floor. When I scraped the wall, my nails were full of rotten wood chips, and it seemed that the house had been abandoned for a long time.

Black Hawk poked his head out of his arms and muttered, "That old man is really inexplicable." ”

"Shh......h Don't talk nonsense. Lin Yi pressed its head back again and warned, "You hide it obediently, don't offend Tianzun." ”

Lin Yi found the iron hoe, picked it up and weighed it a few times, and felt that it could still be used, but the hoe was slightly loose, and it was estimated that it was left here after the farmhouse collapsed.

Then he turned out of the house, paused with the hoe, struck the wedge, and returned to the peach tree. Wang Lao pointed to the ground to indicate the location, and then took a few steps back to let Lin Yi dig.

The black eagle's feathers changed color and hid his figure, but he couldn't hide Tianzun's perception, but he didn't say anything.

The soil gradually piled up, and seeing that it could accommodate one person, Lin Yi immediately stopped, rubbed his waist and said, "The disciple is short of breath and weak, and his back hurts before he does it twice, so I have to rest." ”

Regardless of Wang Lao's surprised face, he sat cross-legged and sat aside, looking at the distant sky in a daze.

Wang Lao blew his beard and scolded: "If you are less tired, do you want the old man to help you dig the soil?"

Lin Yi swallowed and spoke: "The kid just fought the demons, uh...... Now that I can't do it, please forgive me. ”

Wang Lao shook his head and sighed, and said helplessly: "Okay, this will tell you the reason, do you still remember Gui'e?"

"Of course I remember, can the mountain god save Miss Gu?" Lin Yiqi asked, wonderingly turning his eyes to thought.

"You're not stupid, think for yourself. Wang Lao twisted his beard and smiled slyly.

"Tianzun looks down on the boy. Lin Yi hurriedly defended with a humble attitude, "The kid is stupid by nature, although he is good at figuring out people's hearts, but it is only a few tricks, it is difficult to get into the hall of elegance, how can he not know the prophet." ”

"How clever are you on weekdays?" said Wang Lao sarcastically.

Lin Yi frowned and was stunned, staring at the peach tree in front of him, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, "Could it be that Miss Gu is becoming like Gui'e......"

"Hahaha, yes!" Wang Lao stroked his palms and was happy, and Ken Shou said: "That's right, this girl is dead, but a wisp of remnant soul still exists, if you can bury it under the fairy tree, let the rhizome absorb her flesh and blood, the soul will move into the peach tree." When the young branches sprout and the dead trees bloom in the next day, you can transform into a spirit and become a new mountain god. ”

"Thank you Tianzun!" Lin Yi jumped up in shock, wielding a hoe and digging hard, and his back injury and back pain immediately improved.

The remains were buried in the ground, covered by yellow mud, and Lin Yi stepped on the ground. Wang Lao pinched his fingers, and the thunderclouds in the sky suddenly surged, and after a while, a faint spiritual rain fell, watering the wet and dry earth. The peach tree stretched its roots and plunged into Gu Wanxi's bones, slowly absorbing nutrients.

Lin Yi stood in the rain and stared, and after a while, a young branch grew on the peach tree, like a dead tree in spring, rejuvenated.

Wang Lao sighed slowly: "You should remember - without death, there is no new life." ”

Tianzun said casually, but Lin Yi felt deafening, raised his head and bathed in the rain, recalled the past, and secretly thought: Back then, my mother exchanged her death for my new life, Miss Wanxi died to save me, and then Elder Yin sacrificed himself in exchange for my generation's livelihood, all of which are in line with the deep meaning of His Holiness's words.

He whispered: "Life is infinite from generation to generation, and Jiang Yue looks similar every year......

"Huh, the moonlit night of the Spring River?" Wang Lao raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then asked him expectantly, "What do you think?"

Lin Yi pondered for a few breaths, and then said: "Old and new, life and death alternate, generation to generation, this is the real reincarnation of the Great Dao." ”

Wang Lao stood beside him and smiled: "You have an epiphany." ”

Lin Yi was about to turn his head, suddenly feeling the aura in his body churning, and all rushed towards the dantian, and the thunder seed also followed. After only half a sound, the inner dan actually increased by a circle, and the appearance was as round as jade, and there was a faint thunder light.

He was puzzled, and asked blankly: "Ask Tianzun, what's wrong with the disciple?"

"You have ascended to the Great Dan Realm, and then you will be the Golden Dan. Wang Lao was relieved to speak, Tianyan withdrew from him, and said: "It's not in vain that the old man let you go down the mountain to practice, this trip to Yizhuang, will be a raccoon dog, kill evil cultivators, explore ancient tombs, fight demons, the journey is hard, and finally harvest a lot." ”

Elder Wang patted him on the shoulder and praised him slightly: "Your kid cultivates quickly, which is rare in the world. ”

Lin Yi was very grateful when he heard this, and thought that Tianzun had been paying attention to me, so he arched his hand and said, "Thank you Tianzun for your teachings, the disciple is deeply gracious." ”

"There is no need for vulgarity. Wang Lao turned sideways to avoid it, "When I report the results of the battle to the court, I will be rewarded for my merits and deeds in the dojo, and it will not be too late to thank you." ”

Then he said: "This cave is a little selfish for me, and it will definitely attract criticism from other spirit officials, and Lao Tzu will have a headache." ”

"Hehe, His Holiness is in charge of the Eight Peaks of the Book of Heaven, and he is a supreme minister, who dares to judge you?" Lin Yi was full of joy when he learned that the reward would come in the future, and he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot to prevent him from repenting, "And if the kid gets a generous gift, they will not dare to say that you will only attack me in groups, which is exactly what you are planning." This is called wanting to resist foreign enemies and first unite the hearts of the army, very wonderful ~ very wonderful ~"

"Hmph, don't be a sycophant, the old man's plan is so easy for you to guess. Wang Lao raised his foot and made a gesture to kick his ass, "You first defect to Beiyou for me, and then Lao Tzu will lead his troops to the north, and even the Immortal Sect will be bulldozed in one fell swoop, and by the way, you will be beheaded and beheaded, this is the righteous destruction of relatives, second pole ~ second pole ~"

With that, the two looked at each other and laughed.

Lin Yi immediately restrained his smile and said solemnly: "If one day, you want me to sneak into Beiyoudang, the kid is willing to go." ”

"It's a flawed idea. Wang Lao shook his head and vetoed, changed the topic and said: "The Immortal Sect is greedy for eternal life, pretentious and extraordinary, regards the common people as pigs and dogs, and uses soul refining to prolong life. ”

Lin Yi said respectfully: "The kid bowed his head and followed the Venerable, pointed his sword at the north, and swore to return peace to the world. ”

When the clouds and rain dissipated, Wang Lao was silent, thinking: When the day will no longer be needed for our monks, the world will really be peaceful.

Seeing that Wang Lao was about to retreat, Lin Yi hurriedly said, "Tianzun, how should I go down the mountain?"

"There's a wire over there, climb back on your own. Wang Lao said that he was about to escape the thunder light, and Lin Yi hurriedly said: "Tianzun stays, this time against the demon, its spiritual pressure is too strong, and it is so frightened that the kid falls to the ground, but there is a way to deal with it?"

Wang Lao paused for a moment and said indifferently: "Spiritual pressure is like a fierce beast to threaten, it can make ordinary people's limbs weak, their minds blank, and their bodies uncontrollable. You also need to study and practice qi arts, focus on breathing, calm your thoughts when you are in battle, and have no fear or fear, only by breathing endlessly, can you keep the spiritual platform clear. ”

When the words fell, he turned into thunder and fled, leaving Lin Yi there to reminisce.

......

The sunset shines at night, the mountains are dimly red, and the cranes soar through the clouds, obliquely through the haze. Between the flat ground of the cave mansion, Lin Yi gathered his strength, stood up, and walked to the edge of the floating island. In front of him, an iron cable was exposed, as thick as a human arm, as long as a hundred feet, directly connected to the peak of Tianshu, and appeared and disappeared in the fog.

Lin Yi swallowed his saliva, and climbed up in fear, how did he expect that there was a spiritual rain earlier, the iron rope was wet and slippery, he couldn't hold it with his palms, and he almost fell down.

He was busy running his true qi, and his fingers clasped the gap between the iron rings, and he was able to stabilize his body. Looking down at the soles of his feet, it was an abyss, and he would definitely die if he fell.

Lin Yi's heartbeat accelerated, his legs suddenly became weak, and he hurriedly breathed in to change his breath, suppressed his panic, calmed his mind, and felt a lot better.

He clung to the iron cable, constantly breathing in the fresh air, sweating all over his body, and moving forward little by little. In the end, it took nearly half an hour to climb to Tianshu Peak.

Lin Yi sat slumped on the grass, wiping his sweat, resting for a while, and then went to the workshop to visit Duan Ruyi. Unexpectedly, the organ master told him that Miss Duan had been transferred back to Yaoguang Peak, and Wan Xi passed away, and the deceased parted, leaving him lonely in his heart.

Turning to the mountainside, Lin Yi returned to his room, the furniture was dusty, and after cleaning it briefly, he sat on the chair and was stunned. The black hawk landed on his shoulder, also mournful.

A Dharma protector brought dinner and handed out an envelope, "Lord Lin, please eat, the letter is your fortune for the past few months." ”

Lin Yi caught it and pinched it, there was a thick pile inside, and asked unexpectedly: "I'll be away for three months, why are there so many?"

The Dharma Protector's face darkened, and he bowed his head and said, "Plus Gu Wanxi's pension, because I can't contact her family, I have to hand it over to you." ”

Lin Yi opened his mouth and was speechless for a long time, until the Dharma Protector left the door, and then slowly came back to his senses. Black Eagle sobbed and said, "Young Master Lin, that old man didn't lie to you, can Sister Gu still come back to life?"

Lin Yi smiled and comforted it: "Well, Wanxi will come to see us in another way." ”

Lin Yi boiled tea and rice, then boiled water for a bath, and finally remembered to tear open the envelope and count, which was stuffed with several large silver tickets, totaling one hundred and fifteen taels. When Black Hawk saw the money, he immediately burst into tears and laughed, and rushed over to grab the silver ticket.

Lin Yi waved his hand to drive it away, and said in his heart: Except for my three months' salary, the remaining one hundred taels is Miss Gu's pension, but her brother-in-law is wandering the world, where can I find it?

Let's wait for Wanxi to transform into a mountain god and reappear in the world, and then hand it over to her to dispose of.

Lin Yi blew out the lights and candles, fell asleep on the bed, and woke up to the dawn of the rooster outside the window. He got up and coughed, got a haircut and cleaned his face, hurriedly had breakfast, and then climbed to the top and climbed to the cave. In this way, you can exercise your courage and observe the growth of peach trees by the way.

The sun rises and the moon sets, the black flying rabbit walks, Lin Yi goes up the mountain to practice during the day, and goes back to the house to rest at night. In this reciprocating cycle, after half a month, the red-haired Tengyun descended into the miscellaneous courtyard, bringing new news: "The spies have reported that the whereabouts of the envoy of the Immortal Sect have been found, and Tianzun wants you to retrieve the magic weapon lost in the tomb." ”

Magic weapon?

Lin Yi was slightly confused, and then understood: Wu Sha Aya!!

He hurriedly asked, "Where is it?"

The red-haired man only said two words: "Huaijiang." ”
