Chapter 226: Lake Bottom Cave Mansion
Zong Xiu didn't remember how he ended this topic in the end, but he remembered that when he came out of Master Nan Jian, he felt dizzy.
Before that, he had never thought of finding a Taoist partner, and he had not even had the slightest idea of anything related to it.
Although Zong Xiu occasionally reminisces about the love of fish and water with Yan Weiyu, he still prefers the current state, when the two are together, they are together, and when they are separated, they are separated, they don't have to worry about anything, and they have their own world unrestrained.
If he is allowed to be tired of being with his master like Shizun all day long, Zong Xiu feels that he will go crazy. In essence, he prefers to be alone, and there is an indescribable sense of ease.
Shizun and Shiniang's relentless pursuit of this problem made Zong Xiu tired of coping, and it can't be said that he only has desire for Yan Weiyu, and there is no so-called love, right?
In addition to Yan Weiyu, the other person mentioned by Shi Niang is Murong Rou. When talking about Yan Weiyu, Zong Xiu can still say some perfunctory words, but for Murong Rou, Zong Xiu can only choose to keep his mouth shut.
This second senior sister is now the actual controller of various affairs in the Blue Fire Cave, Zong Xiu feels that the relationship is very good now, and it is revealed, no matter whether Murong Rou has this idea or not, it will be embarrassing to ask her to do things in the future.
After some conversation, Zong Xiu kept talking about it left and right, saying some vague words, and finally pretended to be drunk and left.
The breeze in the mountains came slowly, Zong Xiu felt a lot clearer, and now that he thinks about it, he also feels funny, Shizun and Shiniang are like this, as if they are his biological parents.
Although this kind of verbosity made Zong Xiu not very annoying, at the same time, there was an inexplicable feeling that his parents died early, and he didn't know how long he hadn't experienced this feeling.
After Zong Xiu returned to the cave mansion, he inspected the items he was carrying, and found that there was nothing missing, plus because the master had just said that, he always felt a little strange in his heart, so he simply didn't go to Murong Rou the next day, and went directly out of the mountain gate for the first real experience.
It is said that it is an experience, but in fact, it is more accurate to travel, because there is no clear purpose at all, just to wander around like a tour.
According to Venerable Nan Jian, experience is not beneficial to the growth of cultivation, but if you don't go out for a walk and just practice behind closed doors, then once you encounter a bottleneck, you will easily get lost. However, if the practice is properly interspersed with experience, it will have unexpected effects.
What's more, when you go out to practice, you will always have a faint expectation of possible opportunities, although opportunities are hard to find, but you have been staying in the sect, there is not even a trace of possibility.
Although Zong Xiu didn't make a complete plan this time, he knew what to do first.
The ancient monk's cave where the body of the Stygian fell, he finally had time to explore, and he didn't know if there were any good things left.
The Ancient Monk's Cave Mansion was on the edge of the Demon Swamp, and Zong Xiu knew from the memories he had found that it should be at the bottom of a large lake.
Before leaving the sect, Zong Xiu marked all the possible big lakes near the Demon Swamp, and there were only seven or eight places that met the requirements, and he was ready to explore the past one by one.
It may take some time, but it's nothing, and it's much better than walking aimlessly.
"Wow!"
Zong Xiu jumped out of the water again, his luck in going out did not seem to be good, this was the seventh lake he had dived into, but he still did not find the ancient monk's cave.
There is one last one left.
Zong Xiu sat on the flying cloud shuttle and headed towards the lake marked at the end.
Although he can now fly away on his own, after the initial novelty has passed, he still feels comfortable riding the flying cloud shuttle. After all, the speed at which he is flying away now is not much faster than that of the Flying Cloud Shuttle, but the aura consumed is far greater than that of controlling the Flying Cloud Shuttle, so this kind of rush is still a reliable flying magic weapon.
The last lake, near the northeastern edge of the Lok Xia Mountains, is surrounded by verdant woods, and a large clear lake is quietly embedded in it, shimmering with golden waves in the sunset.
Zong Xiu retracted the flying cloud shuttle, and like the previous times, plunged into the lake.
The lake is very deep, but now that Zong Xiuyun has adopted the method of resting, even if he stays in the water for a few hours, it doesn't hurt. After diving for more than a quarter of an hour, he saw the swaying aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake, and Zong Xiu searched around along the bottom of the lake, and after about an hour, he found a hidden mud hole that was sinking down, bubbling and bubbling.
The mud cave is not big, and Zong Xiu doesn't know if the cave of the ancient monk is below, but since he has found it here, he naturally wants to give it a try.
Zong Xiu was about to use aura to shake the entrance of the cave a little open, but he didn't expect that just after using a little spiritual power, the mud hole collapsed and sank directly like soft tofu, revealing a big hole.
Zong Xiu looked at the collapsed mud hole, and wondered if this was originally a big hole, but it was covered with silt after a long time, and now he was shocked by his spiritual power, and revealed his true face again?
Zong Xiu summoned a ghost general, and then let it sneak into the cave first, and he followed from a distance, so that if there was danger below, it would be good to deal with it in time.
The cave looks deep, but it takes half an hour to reach the end. Without Zongxiu's order, the ghost general was floating quietly at the bottom.
Zong Xiu also reached the bottom, and was thinking about how there was nothing abnormal about this, when he suddenly saw a halo the size of a person on the side. Zong Xiu's face was happy, if it was as expected, this should be the formation of the water separation.
Zong Xiu also let the ghost general enter the halo first, and when he confirmed that there was no danger inside, he followed in.
Inside is a small cave, although it is at the bottom of the lake, it is still clean, although there is some dust, but there is no stagnant water leaking in, and there is no expected scene of cobwebs or full of silt.
In the middle of the cave was a stone platform on which sat a man, and beside him lay a man lying down.
At first glance, Zong Xiu was shocked when he saw someone, but even though he saw that these were already two dry bones, but the magic robes on his body had not yet rotted, so he looked a little like a living person.
Now that they have all turned into white bones, Zong Xiu has nothing to worry about. It's just a little strange in my heart, I don't know if these two people are the ancient monk and the underworld.
If it was really them, thousands of years later, although the corpse was corrupted, the skeleton was complete, and the magic robe on the body was still faintly light, which was enough to make people wonder.
But if you think about it carefully, the Immortal Cangzi is the Grandmaster of the Qilun Realm, and the ancient monk is even more powerful in the Divine Realm, the body bones have their own special features, and the magic clothes they wear are even more rare treasures, and it is not uncommon to be able to preserve them for thousands of years.
Zong Xiu saw that the storage bags around them were still there, and his face showed joy, this trip was not in vain.
I was about to pick it up when I suddenly stopped.
Everything was as usual in front of him, but Zong Xiu always felt uneasy, so he was about to let the ghost general on the side go up, and then changed his mind again, summoning a useless ghost pawn and asking it to go and get the storage bag.
