Chapter 51: Descending the Mountain
-- I just saw that it is already the sixteenth, we have been steadily advancing, and the gap with the fifteenth is only a few dozen, thank you very much, continue to ask for support.
The white-faced long-bearded Taoist priest was a little sad: "If it weren't for the disappearance of the seventh generation patriarch with the fundamental method of this sect, the Serving Ghost ** and the White Bone Serving Soul Banner, the magic weapon of the town faction, how could my Serving Soul Sect fall to such a point!"
"Yes, I grew up in the sect since I was a child, at that time, there were many elders and disciples in the sect, all of them were strong in cultivation, every time the elders preached, the front of the Taoist platform was always full of people, if I didn't go earlier, I couldn't even enter the dojo at all, what White Bone Sect and Ghost Refining Sect flattered us like grandsons, and we could only accept some waste materials that the sect couldn't look down on as disciples. The black-faced Taoist priest stared at the oil lamp in front of him, and his face showed a longing for good memories.
"Senior brother in charge, junior brother, I still remember when I first entered the mountain gate, people who wanted to come to learn the Tao always knelt in the open space outside, and I was a little disciple who had just entered the sect, and when I walked through there, I received envious and jealous eyes, that feeling, I still remember. The white-faced Taoist priest also fell into the memories of the past.
"Why, why do I watch the sect fall, since the disappearance of the seventh generation of patriarchs, how many people have died in the door for the position of the head of the sect, how many senior elders, how many talented disciples, have all died, what is the use of them fighting for these, and there is no fundamental ** and town faction magic weapon when they become a god. The black-faced Taoist priest became emotional.
The white-faced Taoist priest seems to be accustomed to this: "Senior brother in charge, so I said, let's go down the mountain, this sect has long been finished, we can only practice the superficial exercises, if we don't know how to draw some talismans, we can't even compare with the ordinary masters in the rivers and lakes, what to strengthen the sect and restore the glory, don't even think about it, it's better to enjoy the glory and wealth." ”
The black-faced Taoist priest looked at the oil lamp and didn't speak for a long time, until the white-faced Taoist priest couldn't sit still and wanted to say something more, he spoke slowly: "Senior brother, how long have you been persuading me like this, a year or three years, my three apprentices must have been explained by you, right?"
Seeing that the white-faced Taoist priest was about to reply, the black-faced Taoist priest waved his hand: "Actually, I have figured it out a long time ago, but I can't let it go, I can't let it go, in the past month, I have traveled to every corner of the sect, and it seems that every corner has those good memories of my youth, but what if you can't let go, junior brother, you are right, while your body is still passable, go down the mountain for a walk, don't spend your whole life on this cold mountain, like the locust tree behind you slowly die." ”
The white-faced Taoist priest saw that the palm's qi was loose, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and said eagerly: "Senior brother in charge, it's great that you can figure it out, you have been holding on to the sect for half your life, don't leave the rest of your life here." ”
As if he had made up his mind, the black-faced master stood up abruptly and said to the white-faced Taoist priest: "Senior brother, go and wake up my three apprentices, pack up your things, and we will go down the mountain now!"
The white-faced Taoist priest was startled and muttered back: "Senior brother in charge, it's not too late to go down the mountain tomorrow morning in the middle of the night." ”
"Let's go, let's go now, I'm afraid I'll regret it again!" the black-faced Taoist priest insisted with a wry smile.
"Okay, okay, okay, I'll wake up my nephews, and you can clean up your brother. The white-faced Taoist priest finally persuaded the senior brother in charge, and naturally refused to let go of this opportunity.
After the white-faced Taoist priest left, the black-faced Taoist priest stood still for a while, and finally let out a long sigh, cleaned up in his room, and after a short time, he put away a package.
Shi Xuan took Chu Wan'er to look outside the window for so long, and he could already judge that this battle of the Ghost Sect was indeed defeated, and there was no news that Shi Xuan needed, and when he saw that others were about to leave, he naturally took the first step out of the Ghost Sect.
Chu Xuan'er was young and nothing, and Shi Xuan felt the faint sadness in the room at that time, but he couldn't return the "Serving Ghost**" to them, such a vicious cultivation method, Shi Xuan would have destroyed it a long time ago.
Tonight's task has not been completed, Shi Xuan pulled Chu Xuan'er, who was extremely excited after seeing the magic of the spell, and continued to walk towards the mountain, and before he went far up the mountain, the Servant Ghost Sect lit up with a sky-high fire.
Shi Xuan stood on a high place and looked from afar, and saw that the big building complex of the Servant Ghost Sect was burning with raging fires, and in the firelight, several figures went down the mountain, and some of them cried out desolately: "The Servant Ghost Sect is gone......!
"Master, look, there was a fire there just now!" Chu Wan'er shouted as she pointed to the Servant Ghost Sect.
"It's nothing, it's just that someone burned their past. Shi Xuan sighed. Chu Wan'er didn't seem to understand or didn't speak.
In the following time, Shi Xuan and Chu Wan'er traveled all over the places where the yin qi was the most prosperous in Bishan, but unfortunately there was still nothing to gain, and they visited those yin houses one by one, which made Chu Wan'er have several more bags of fruit in her arms, but she was so tired that she kept complaining.
Standing on the peak of Pishan Mountain, looking at the Shendu, although the sky is dark at this time, it is close to the busy hour when many people get up early, and the lights in several places in the city are gradually lit up, and the light of the stars looks very beautiful, and the fire that rises to the sky on the mountainside of Pishan Mountain contrasts with each other.
"It's beautiful. Chu Wan'er leaned on Shi Xuan's waist, looked at the vibrant lights of thousands of homes under the mountain, and sighed.
Back in Shendu, Shi Xuan stayed idle for a few days, mainly because Chu Xuan'er had just started to forge his body, and he needed to concentrate on consolidating it, so it was inconvenient to hurry, and on the other hand, his cultivation had encountered a bottleneck and he needed to ponder carefully.
Since Shi Xuan broke through to the out-of-body realm, his cultivation has increased with each other, and now he can swim more than 30 zhang. After visualizing the true form of the Five Directions Thunder God, with the enhancement of the soul's cultivation, the soul's perception of heaven and earth has increased, so the sense of the body and heart to heaven and earth has also increased a lot.
However, recently, Shi Xuan basically couldn't feel the growth of cultivation, and he always felt that he couldn't understand the relevant passes, thinking that Xu Laodao was the current situation, so he resolutely put down his family business and searched for immortal roads everywhere, but unfortunately he still found nothing. And if you can't understand the pass, you can slowly cultivate, I'm afraid that at Xu Laodao's age, your cultivation will not be much better than him.
When Chu Wan'er consolidated the foundation, Shi Xuan still didn't figure out the key, but he had to go on the road, and he could find the Dao Gate as soon as possible to solve his confusion.
First of all, he wanted to send Chu Wan'er home, and he also wanted to hear some news from the Demon Queen, and then went to Luojing Huilong to watch, if there was no trace of the Daomen, he could only sail out to sea.
Chu Xuan'er was young and couldn't tell where she lived, but she only knew that after taking the carriage out, the first stop was a small city near Luojing, so Shi Xuan took Chu Xuan'er and rushed here at night.
Although Luo Jing and Shen are not far away, but two consecutive days of hurrying made Chu Juan'er, a little girl, tired, the two rested in the small city for one night, and the second day was to follow Chu Juan'er's vague memory and grope to the village where she lived.
Chu Wan'er has a talent for road idiots, and pointed to this road for a while: "Master, master, this is the road that my mother took when she took Wan'er to the city to play." After a while, he pointed to another one: "Master, that one seems to be the one that Wan'er passed under the carriage, and Wan'er still remembers the crooked-necked tree." ”
Finally, he stood in the middle of the fork in the road, frowned for a long time, and finally said to Shi Xuan: "Master, people think that both are right." What to do?"
Shi Xuan was helpless: "Then let's go this one first, if not, we will take another one, I hope there will be no more forks in the middle, otherwise we will have to try every one." ”
Chu Wan'er stood beside Shi Xuan, looked at the road in front of her, learned from Shi Xuan's helpless appearance, and sighed in a crisp and childish voice: "Hey, Wan'er never remembered the road when she went out before." ”
Shi Xuan pulled Chu Xuan'er and walked on the left road first, and there were people on horseback who kept coming and going along the way, all of them were full of murderous aura, and there were a few top masters in the past.
What is the big deal in the rivers and lakes? Shi Xuan just turned his mind around, so he didn't continue to pay attention, the things in the rivers and lakes had nothing to do with him.
However, Shi Xuan, a young Taoist priest, was holding a demonic black banner in one hand and a little girl carved in pink and jade in the other, walking on the road was extremely eye-catching.
At this time, a master who rode Shi Xuan from the opposite side on a fast horse saw Chu Xuan'er, and he sighed lightly, and even slowed down his horse and turned his head to look at it intently. Seeing this, Shi Xuan thought to himself that this guy would not have seen the Demon Queen.
The master pulled the reins of the horse and walked over, dismounted in front of Shi Xuan and them, and saluted quite respectfully: "I don't know which master of the Holy Gate came to help, Your Excellency?"
Shi Xuan was slightly clear in his heart, and instead of answering his question, he asked, "Where is the Holy Queen?"
The northwestern man replied respectfully: "The Holy Queen and our gang leader are on the Xiaojue Ridge, and they are surrounding those young heroes and chivalrous women in the mountain temple, but they actually let them meet the Xuanyi Sanren there, and the two sides are in a stalemate. ”
"Oh, Poor Dao just sent Wan'er to the Holy Queen, I didn't expect this to coincide, I don't know why I had to kill those young heroes and chivalrous women?" Shi Xuan asked along the topic.
"That is, I have seen the saint before I went down, so I dared to come up and pay respects. The master replied respectfully, and Chu Wan'er bit her index finger and thought about it again and again before saying, "Why doesn't Wan'er remember to see you." ”
The master smiled flatteringly, and continued: "This matter was first caused by the white-clothed son Liu Suiyuntan who heard about a confidential matter between the gang and the Holy Gate, and stole a certain letter talisman, so he was chased and killed by us all the way, but I didn't expect that he actually met Du Yuhan, the iron sword prince, Meng Yuqiong, the Yuhua fairy, and several other masters, it seems that there are second-rate family members of the Xu family. They broke through the siege and fled to this small mountain, but our gang leader then rushed over and surrounded them again in the mountain temple. ”
When Shi Xuan heard Meng Yuqiong and the Xu family, he understood that most of Xu Jinyi's girl was also in the mountain temple, which had to be saved, so he had to continue to listen to more news: "You help the master besiege and not attack, but because the Xuanyi Sanren is also in the mountain temple?"
