At this point, the old man stopped, and Lu Mu was trying to recall the old man's words, trying to find useful information as much as possible!

The room began to be quiet, and by the time Lu Mu came back to his senses, the old man had already stood up, holding his crutches with both hands, and walked back and forth around the table, and the crutches touched the ground, but did not make the slightest sound!

Lu Mu stood up and arched his hand to the old man and said, "What the old man said is very important to us, and what you said is also very detailed, but it's just..."

Lu Mu looked at the old man and turned his head to look at the middle-aged man, who happened to be looking at him as well, and the two met their eyes, and each other's hearts were shocked.

Lu Mu didn't continue, the old man seemed to understand his thoughts and said: "Young people don't have to have any troubles, as I said, everything has its own certainty, what I said today is just some facts in the past, it may not be a good thing to know everything, but everything has a cycle of cause and effect, what you should know will always let you know, you shouldn't know that forcing will not produce good results, everything is fate." It is fate to be here today, this is not the beginning, nature is not the end, and when we meet again, maybe everything will be different. ”

The old man said that he walked straight to the back without looking back!

The middle-aged man also got up suddenly, glanced at them and walked out!

When the two of them came out of the house, they found that the sky was about to darken, and the sun had gone to the westernmost side, and was about to set, and the whole west was covered with red clouds, reflecting half of the sky red.

Kunlun Mountain is a special taste under the reflection of the sunset: the mountain is yin and yang, towering between the clouds and mist, and the small temple in the middle of the mountain is emitting bursts of red light at this moment, which is very dazzling!

Yan Yan stretched his waist and said, "I didn't expect to sit here for an afternoon, I haven't sat like this for a long time." ”

After looking at Lu Mu, he still looked very serious with a thoughtful expression, and said with a smile: "I think you must have been deceived by that old man, he said so much, but he didn't give details about the key points, and said that it's not good to know too much, I think he is just playing tricks, and there is no difference from what we have already learned!"

After that, he pointed to the temple on the mountain and said, "This is the first time I have seen the Nuwa Niangniang Temple in the mortal world, and I don't know if it is different from ours, so I must go and see it." ”

Before Yu Mu could speak, he pulled Lu Mu and walked towards the mountain! After all, the two of them were not mortals, and the halfway up the mountain was not effortless, and they soon arrived at the place.

Now it is almost dark, there is no one in front of the temple, there is nothing special about the temple itself, it is still built according to the appearance of most temples in the world - a long courtyard wall, the temple door is painted light yellow, the temple door is wide open, and the door is about two meters long A plaque, on which is written three big characters "Niangniang Temple" that is not much smaller than the plaque.

There is a threshold about a foot high under the door, and as soon as you enter the door, you can see an incense burner in the courtyard, and there is unburned incense on it, and the incense burner is full of incense ashes, it seems that the incense should be very prosperous.

Facing the incense burner is the main hall, and the statue of Nuwa Niangniang is sitting in the center of the main hall, dressed in gold, full of kindness! There are two futons directly below the statue, which are for people to kneel and worship.

The two knelt down on the futon, folded their hands and kowtowed three times.

Yu Yan smiled at the statue and said: "Niangniang is eccentric, I haven't seen us a few times, and I can only kneel here to worship your statue, I don't know if you can hear it, and please bless us to complete the task as soon as possible, so that the world will not be ruined, it is our supreme merit!"

After that, he kowtowed three times in a row.

Lu Mu is no longer surprised by this situation, and only at this time can Yu Yan show a rare seriousness.

Although they came from different families, they had been together for almost everything since they could remember, reading and practicing calligraphy together, and practicing martial arts together.

They are all from the Rui tribe, the Rui tribe that the old man said was the one who went into seclusion with Nuwa, but many things began to change over time, and the people of the Rui tribe were no exception.

When he went into seclusion with Nuwa, everyone in the Rui clan practiced, and some of them also had very high cultivation, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were Da Luo Jin Immortals according to human standards.

However, some people's cultivation is not so smooth, they are always unable to break through some realms and stand still, although they can slow down the aging of their bodies, they can't avoid death in the end.

After all, the clansmen have already come into contact with the way of heaven and earth, and they also understand the laws of nature to some extent, and they have long looked down on life and death, and they have also accepted this arrangement. He simply took his energy out of his practice and began to enjoy life, experiencing the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of birth, old age, sickness, and death, which is almost no different from the current situation in the world.

It's just that the people of the Rui tribe are organic people in the end, and the environment they live in is transformed by the limbs of Pangu, although they can't make the body reach the point of immortality, but everyone can live a long life.

After an unknown number of years, many people have simply stopped practicing and enjoyed ordinary life wholeheartedly, and even some people who have cultivated high enough have even taken the initiative to give up their achievements and devote themselves to the world.

This once made Yu Mu very unaware, but Yu Yan disagreed, he said that this is nothing strange, people always know that it is not really great after having it, and only after losing it do they know how valuable it is.

Lu Mu naturally couldn't understand Yan Yan's thoughts, and at the same time, he also understood that Yan Yan only had such thoughts, which had a lot to do with his life.

Originally, they wanted Yan to grow up to live like them, to enjoy the joys and sorrows of life, to face life, to face life, old age, sickness and death, and then disappear after experiencing everything, they have been convinced that the cycle of life and death is the most perfect.

It's just that Nuwa appeared when Yan Yan was born, and although Yan Yan's parents did not practice, they still regarded Nuwa as their ancestors, and every family worshiped the idol of Nuwa, and never forgot to worship it every day.

This form is the same as that of the human world, where the worship is mostly for prayer, while the Rui people are completely respectful, and they think from the bottom of their hearts that Nuwa is their family, and without Nuwa there would be no them.

Nuwa appeared directly in the house of Yu Yan's parents, and naturally sat on the chair next to her, while Yu Yan's parents were in the back room, immersed in the joy of being a father. Nuwa didn't bother them, but was attracted by the aroma of the glass of water on the table, so she couldn't help but reach out and check it.

The color of the water in the cup is different from the general water, the general water is clear and tasteless, but the color of the water is much darker, and there are a few leaf-like things in it, Nuwa put it on the side of her nose and smelled it, a fragrance from the nostrils to the brain, and the spirit instantly sobered up a lot.

At this time, Lu Yan's parents came out of the back room, and Lu Yan's mother was still holding Lu Yan in her hands, and when the two saw Nuwa sitting in the house, they hurriedly knelt down and buckled their heads. Although Yan Yan's parents had not seen Nuwa herself, they were only pleasantly surprised.

Nuwa lowered the water cup and told them to get up. After Yu Yan's father got up, he bowed to Nuwa and said, "Nuwa Niangniang has not appeared in the world for a long time, I don't know what is going on here today?"

Nuwa motioned for him to bring Yu Yan over, and Lu Yan's mother hurriedly stepped forward, and Nuwa took Yu Yan from her hand and looked at him carefully for a while, then handed it to Yu Yan's mother and said softly: "I'm afraid that your child will borrow it from me, and I am afraid that there will be another catastrophe in the world in the near future, and I need this child's strength to stop this catastrophe."

The two didn't seem to understand what Nuwa meant, they looked at each other, and Nuwa continued: "Although you no longer practice, you should also understand the way of heaven, everything in the world complements each other, and this catastrophe in the world will definitely happen, and then the world will be ruined, and it is your son who can stop this catastrophe." ”

Yan Yan's parents naturally know the seriousness of this, although they are no longer in contact with the world, and those people in the world may not even know about their existence, but after all, they are born from the same root as the world, so naturally they can't ignore it, and there is also Nuwa's personal instructions, so they have to agree to it.

It's just that after all, they have just become parents, and they are still immersed in joy, and if they let their son leave at this time, they will definitely be reluctant to give up.

Although he felt a little sad in his heart, Yu Yan's father still asked: "I don't know what Niangniang's plan is, when will I take this child away!"

Nuwa understood what he meant and said, "Don't be in a hurry at the moment, someone will come to take this child when he is sensible, but don't worry, the child will come back from time to time during his cultivation." ”

The uneasy heart of Lu Yan's parents was put down, and Nuwa said that the child did not have a name yet, so they named him Yu Yan, and Lu Yan's parents were very happy and hurriedly thanked Nuwa.

When Nuwa was about to leave, she asked what was on the table, and Lu Yan's father replied that he didn't know the name of the leaves he had taken from a grass tree in the back mountain at that time, but when he soaked in the water, he would emit a burst of fragrance, and after drinking the soaked water, his brain would feel a lot more energetic.

Lu Mu is similar to Yu Yan's situation, and it is also the name given by Nuwa, saying that she wants to borrow his strength. The two have been practicing martial arts together since they were sensible, and this is the first time they have come to the world, naturally not to play, but to go to the world to practice.

It was their first task to go up to the hut to listen to the old man's story, and it was also what their master told them, saying that they would have a reward! When they finished worshipping Yan and got up to look around, the sun had completely set on the mountain at this moment, and the sky was rapidly darkening.

There was only one old man left in the main hall who was watching the temple, he should have been very old, wearing a shabby gray robe, hunched over, holding a half-half broom in his hand, and staggering to sweep the dust on the ground.

When he walked to the two of them, he could see more clearly that his hair was gray and his face was full of wrinkles, and when he had finished sweeping it, the old man went to fetch a stool, and put it on the side of the door and stood on it, lighting the lantern on the door.

His thin body seemed to be blown down by the mountain wind at any time, and when the lantern was on, there began to be a swaying shadow in the courtyard, and the old man closed the door after doing all this, walked to the statue of Nuwa, knelt down and bowed, and then walked straight to the back room. The old man naturally couldn't see the two of them when he was doing all this.

After the old man left, the two appeared. The hall was already very dark, only the two candles in front of the statue of Nuwa emitted a faint light, and this light contrasted the things behind the statue even darker, and it was completely invisible.

After making sure that the old man couldn't hear them, he said, "I think the master is lying to us, saying that if we find the old man, there will be some great gains, but that's it, we have been sitting there for most of the day, but in the end we only got things that have little to do with us, so it is better to go shopping and experience the fun of the world!"
