Volume 1 Entering the Immortal Cultivation Chapter 36 The Mysterious Old Man
Bai Chen and his entourage came to the gate of Tongyi City after three days, because it was now noon, there were many people who needed to queue up in and out of the city, and the crowds of people coming and going were constantly shuttling, and the guards at the entrance of the city respectfully greeted Ji Cai after seeing it, saving the trouble of queuing.
Entering the city, Bai Chen reminisced a little and sighed, but he didn't think that he would come back again.
"Ling Ke can't let you come for nothing, let you come to my house later. Ji Cai walked in front of everyone and said to them with a big grin, and the symmetry was also called by name, it seems that the friendship between the two second ancestors has improved a lot on the road.
When Ling Ke heard this, he just wanted to refuse, and thought that it would be good to wait for Xiang Ming to go back to the city directly after he finished buying things, and as soon as the honey arrived, he thought about the matter of Yangyan Dan, how could he still have the kung fu to go to the Ji family.
But just as he was about to say, there seemed to be a gust of wind in his ears, and he paused for a moment, and then changed his attitude and smiled: "Then you have to go and see, you can't be stingy when you go to your house, you want to invite me to eat something delicious." ”
"Of course, hahaha. Ji Cai patted his chest.
In fact, when Xiang Ming knew Ji Cai's identity on the road, he thought the same as Bai Chen, he could use Ji Cai to enter the Ji family openly, and Ling Ke was also an indispensable part, because Xiang Ming's identity was special, entering the Ji family was estimated to attract suspicion.
After all, how could the guards of the Ling family run to Tongyi City, and with Ling Ke here, there was no need to worry at all, they pretended to be guards and went to the Ji family with him, who would have thought that a second ancestor would have a different purpose when he came to their house.
The most important thing is that Ling Ke and Ji Cai met by chance, which can greatly reduce the vigilance of the Ji family, after all, the existence of the two guards is still very small, and others can completely ignore the appearance of protecting their young master at a glance.
Just when Ling Ke wanted to say no, Xiang Ming hurriedly sent a message and said the purpose of their trip, after all, it was better for the young master to be with them.
Ling Ke didn't expect that the two of them were actually here to carry out the mission, it turned out that buying things was just an excuse, and suddenly the heart of cooperation rose, and there was a change just now.
"Little friend old man looks at the essence of your bones and the five elements are peculiar, can you count a hexagram, the old man is proficient in the past and the future, and knows the two sides of heaven and earth, and is not allowed to charge no charge. ”
Just when Bai Chen and the others were all thoughtful, a faint voice suddenly came into his ears.
I saw an old man suddenly cross in front of him, the old man's fairy wind Dao bones showed a look in his eyes, wearing a white fortune teller robe, full of white hair, but the person is not very old, there is a feeling of being old and strong.
It would not be surprising if this kind of appearance was a monk, but the divine sense swept away the old man's body without the slightest aura, which made Bai Chen a little strange.
"You want to tell me a fortune?" Bai Chen looked at this old man a little curious, as if he was deliberately chosen, otherwise why did so many people only choose themselves, instead of Xiang Ming Besides, it seems that those two young masters are rich people, why don't you look for them?
"Can Xiao Xing see anything?" Bai Chen felt that the old man didn't seem to be so simple, and asked Xiao Xing to see what he could find.
But this time, Xiaoxing shook his head: "No matter how you look at it, you are a mortal, and you can't see anything special at all." ”
"Really?" Bai Chen's doubts dissipated most of his doubts when he heard this, since Xiao Xing said that there was no problem, he should be a mortal, it seemed that he was suspicious.
"The old man from there actually came here to tell us fortunes, do you know who we are?" Ji Cai, they walked in front and suddenly found that this old man was blocking Bai Chen's way, mortals want to tell us hexagrams, you just give ordinary people calculations, and even do the business to the monks, are we so fooled?
walked in front of him and wanted to teach a lesson, but Bai Chen crossed his hand before he snorted and retracted.
Ji Cai still admired Bai Chen very much in his heart, he meant to tell him not to do it, and Ji Cai was not easy to make trouble.
Xiang Ming frowned, he was almost at the Ji family, where did this old man come out?
Ling Ke didn't care about it, but he was still very curious, and leaned his face and stuck it.
"Can you count anything?" Although most of Bai Chen's doubts dissipated in his heart, he still felt that something was wrong with this old man, and he couldn't understand what was wrong, but he had an intuition in his heart.
"Absolutely. The old man smiled slightly, full of confidence.
As soon as Bai Chen heard it, "Then what do you think I'm wondering about?" he asked a rhetorical question, if this old man didn't know, what was it.
"It depends on what you are interested in, such as relatives or strength and then unknown things, you have doubts, but I can only count you as one and choose one. The old man did not hesitate to say in the face of his temptation.
Bai Chen gasped when he heard this, and concluded in his heart that this old man must not be an ordinary person, because the answers he said were all doubts in his heart.
Wondering who his biological parents are Isn't this a relative, wondering about the way to improve his strength and the location of the Star Sword fragment is the power that the old man said, and the unknown thing is the unknown terrifying creature that Xiao Xing said last time, and he doesn't know how to face it.
"Xiaoxing, you take a closer look, I'm sure this old man must not be so simple!" Bai Chen called Xiao Xing this time, but this time Xiao Xing did not respond, he muttered in his heart.
"What's going on?" When Bai Chen came to his senses, he found that the surroundings suddenly became quieter, it stands to reason that it should be noisy during the day now, why did it suddenly become silent.
He gradually noticed that the sky and the earth around him were covered with a yellowish feeling, and the colorful world in his eyes was replaced by a pale yellow, as if it had lost its color.
The air became calmer, time seemed to stop, and everything around it was frozen in one picture.
The frolicking children kept a cheerful smile, and the leaves in the sky did not fall in mid-air, Xiang Ming next to him frowned and did not move, Ling Ke instead put on a stride, and Ji Cai still had a bad complexion.
The only thing they have in common is that they are all motionless.
"Is this time stopped?" Bai Chen's face was shocked, and he kept calling Xiaoxing, but nothing came of it.
Seeing that the old man was still looking at himself with a smile, a lot of cold sweat flowed from Bai Chen's head, and now even a fool could see that all this was done by this old man.
Facing the stillness around him, Bai Chen's heart was very flustered, such a magical power was even more against the sky than the law of space, and he didn't know now that the whole city was still or this world was stationary.
As long as such a supernatural power is within a certain range, it will definitely be discovered, but there has been no movement so far, which can only mean that the monks in it have been affected no matter what kind of cultivation they are.
There are a lot of Yuanying monks of the Ji family, and there is a legend that there is also a feather overhaul, have they not found anything until now? Or are they all standing still in time like this group of people?
Thinking of this, Bai Chen's heart was extremely vigilant, not that he didn't see the reality of this old man, but that his cultivation was probably not what Bai Chen could think of now, at least it must be above the feathering, so even Xiaoxing didn't see it.
And he deliberately stopped the time in the city and he could still move now, which means that he was coming for himself, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while, and he didn't know what this old man was for.
"Little friend, don't panic, just say the answer you want!" the old man smiled faintly and didn't care about his surroundings.
"Can I only choose one?" Bai Chen eased in his heart, remembering the old man's words before, and suddenly thought about it.
It seems that this old man should not have any malicious intent, otherwise he would still talk to you like this with his cultivation.
Bai Chen was the first to have this answer in his heart, but after thinking about it for a while, he shook his head, although he wanted to know why his parents abandoned him in the first place, and whether he was still alive now, but he thought that even if he knew it now, he would not be able to do anything, and he was a little more sad.
Then ask Xiao Xing what is a living thing? Bai Chen thought of this question for the second time, but still shook his head, no matter what it was, it would be over when the time came, why do you know so much.
"I choose the question of strength. He finally decided to ask this question, now the current problem is still strength, if he has the same strength as the old man in front of him, it is estimated that the above questions are not a problem.
"Have you decided?" the old man's voice came out faintly.
Bai Chen nodded heavily.
"In fact, you know how to do this question yourself, for the sake of you and me, I will give this to you. The old man's hand shook and there was a box, the box was not too old, there were several mechanisms on it, and all the mechanisms could only be opened if they were lifted.
"This box has what you want in it"
Bai Chen had a sense of familiarity when he saw the box, but that feeling was not from this box, but from inside, and due to the particularity of the box, his divine sense could not sense it.
Subconsciously took the box, put it in the storage ring and looked at the old man: "Senior, you..."
Bai Chen was about to say something, but the old man waved his hand and interrupted: "Little friend, you don't need to say more, you and I will meet again if we are fated." ”
After speaking, the big sleeves disappeared, and the surrounding air appeared shiny, Bai Chen's eyes also regained color, as the pale yellow gradually disappeared, the lively crowd appeared in front of him again, they didn't seem to want what happened just now, for them as if it was just a moment without any reaction.
Looking at all this, Bai Chen's heart couldn't calm down for a long time like a huge wave, and he subconsciously looked at the storage ring, there was a box in it that was given by the old man, and he knew that this was not a dream, so he turned to the old man's place just now and stared at it for a long time, "What are you doing there, old Bai, let's go!" Xiang Ming's voice suddenly came from his ears.
"There was an old man here. Bai Chen pointed to the old man's place and wanted to say something.
"What an old man, let's go. Xiang Ming interrupted him directly, but he also wondered why he frowned just now, and he still didn't know what was going on after thinking about it.
Ji Cai and Ling Ke also nodded, but they also muttered in their hearts what the hell had they lost just now, didn't they keep moving forward, and they didn't have any impression of this at all.
Bai Chen didn't say much when he heard this, but his shock became more and more intense, and his memories were erased? The old man was indeed a great supernatural monk, and when he heard him say that he should meet again in the future, he was asking for clarification.
"This box. Although Bai Chen didn't know what was inside, he was sure that there must be something in it that he wanted, and it was a very important thing.
