Tracing the Origins of the Past Chapter 22

Twenty-second

The emperor lived up to his wishes, and finally, after many pains and sufferings, Tang Dangyang and Li Lu met unexpectedly at the other end of the street.

I saw Tang Dangyang seeing Jieyin begging along the street, picked him up, a few tears shone brightly, and said in a low voice: "It's you, yes, it's you." You are the apprentice of Jie Zitui Daxia! Can you still remember your uncle? The first time we met, it was in that broken inn in Yongcheng, Qin State. ”

Jieyin was stunned, and then nodded inexplicably.

The female beggar on the side didn't know whether the man and the woman were friends or foes, so she squatted down, looked at Jieyin and asked carefully: "Little ghost, do you really know them? ”

After some explanations from both sides, the matter was finally clarified, and Tang Dangyang also truthfully reported (stated) the information that Jie Zitui had passed away.

From this moment on, the name "Obsessive Life" seemed to have become the object of resentment for all of them. In Jieyin's heart, there is already a desire to take revenge for his mentor Jie Zitui's grandfather. Tang Dangyang and Li Lu also hated and sneered at their infatuation.

From then on, the female beggar also joined their camp, and since she was not a person from the cultivation realm, she was just an ordinary mortal, so she acted as a nanny to take care of the children, laundry and cooking. Although the female beggar is a servant-like servant, Tang Dangyang has never treated her like this, but regards her as his own eldest sister, and his respect and love for her is a sense of dignity that she has never experienced in her life.

A few days later, Tang Dangyang and his entourage finally came to Xintian, the capital of the Jin Kingdom, and successfully met with Yin Taibai and Yin Yueyue, and the large army embarked on a journey to the "Tianyi Pagoda" of the Tianyi faction to steal Xuanjing ore.

Tang Dangyang always felt that this trip was an unrighteous act, a treasure to take away others, just to seek the immortality of his companions, which seemed a little inauthentic. However, if you don't even have the opportunity to live forever, what is the point of years of hard work in cultivating immortals?

About half a month later, they finally came to the vicinity of the Tianyi faction, set up camp in ambush, and prepared to wait for the opportunity to sneak into it in an attempt to steal the treasure.

It was early in the morning, and the white dew was frosty. Yin Taibai, who was always restless in his heart, restless, restless, and ready to move, ignored the opposition of his sister and Tang Dangyang, and performed the flying technique alone, leaping to the roof of an attic of the Tianyi faction, listening to the sound from the martial arts arena not far below the house.

On this day, all the divisions of the Tianyi faction gathered in the martial arts arena within the walls of the sect to discuss the issue of the candidate number of the sect's heir.

On the sidelines of the martial arts arena, an old Taoist leader wearing a heavy robe with wide sleeves and long sleeves stood in front of all the disciples with a smile on his face, and said amiably: "As the master is about to retreat and practice the highest martial art of this sect's Taoism, 'Qi Body Source Flow', it may take months or even years to sprint to the entrance with peace of mind. Therefore, I have decided to choose a person to temporarily take the position of head of my faction, so as to share the worries and solve the difficulties for the teacher. You have come one by one, and you have done some righteous deeds to eliminate demons and defend the path recently, and you will truthfully admit to me. ”

"Master, disciple Yellow Boots report to the Holy Hearing. Previously, Master ordered me to go to Yongcheng in Qin State to find out the whereabouts of the 'Secret of Longevity', but the disciple was incompetent and failed to find the guy with the 'Treasure Map', so I asked Master to punish him. However, on the way back to the Tianyi faction, the disciple happened to see a group of extremely ferocious male beggars chasing and killing a pair of orphans and widows. This is a matter within the disciple's responsibility, and the disciple does not dare to take credit. Yellow Boots clenched his hands into fists and bent over to report.

On the surface, he knelt down and begged the master for punishment, and did not covet any meritorious achievements, but in fact, what he wanted was the master's approval, and give him a reward or meritorious service, even if it was a satisfactory compliment.

Who would have thought that the head of the Tianyi faction, "Tianyizi", was not moved or appreciative in the slightest, but instead scolded: "Bastard! You actually committed such a serious murder! A group of ordinary people, is it worth your action to kill them? Even if they are full of evil and evil, and they are in the way of you, aren't you nosy with a mouse and worrying about it? This is also called a righteous act? Hmph, it simply tarnishes the reputation of my righteous sect people!"

After hearing this, Yellow Boots was shocked, and the whole person was stunned on the spot, and then put down his hands, straightened his waist, and stared at the master with a strange gaze, "popping" between his teeth, and he couldn't believe his ears.

"Master Qiqi, disciple...... I didn't do anything, and for several days, I have been meditating and practicing in front of the statue of the Taoist ancestor under the pagoda, and I have never left the master for half a step. The second apprentice reported tremblingly.

"Good job, second brother, although you don't have the credit, I saw the hard work. Compared to your brother, you're doing fantastic. At least he didn't make a mistake and didn't insult the reputation of the teacher's righteous path. The head of the house, "Tianyizi", nodded in approval one after another.

"Back to Master, a while ago, I went to the Bashu area to investigate, and I heard a big secret of the rivers and lakes. I don't know if this counts as a righteous act?" the three apprentices shouted with joy, their eyes and expressions were so confident and arrogant.

"Oh, is it? The third one, these things that should be done by the spies' eyeliner, you also ran to muddy the waters? Yes, you can act as a clairvoyant of my faction! Tell the teacher, what big secrets have you discovered?" Compared with the eldest apprentice and the second apprentice, the demeanor and expression of the head of the third apprentice have changed significantly, and the attitude has been very different. The difference in treatment is simply one in the sky and one underground.

At that time, the apprentice galloped on horseback, rode his horse and galloped wildly, trekking all the way through mountains and rivers, tirelessly working hard, and unconsciously entered the area of Shushan Sword Pavilion. Suddenly, he heard someone talking in a nearby pavilion, so he approached them and hid under a stone pillar on the side of the pavilion. I heard from them that their sect has recently changed a new sect leader, and that new sect leader has a good and lofty spirit, and will lead the sect to kill out of Shu Mountain, and Chen Bing is outside, intending to dominate the world and cultivate the true realm. Later, after in-depth investigation by the disciples, they finally discovered that the sect they were referring to was the 'Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation', which had been unknown for many years! It is said that the 'Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation' specially housed some prisoners on death row, serious offenders, or outcasts and reckless figures from various sects in the cultivation realm, and after brainwashing them, they were guided to believe in the way of 'the destruction of all things', so as to win the hearts of the disciples and unite with the enemy. In vain, the ambition of their new sect leader is not small, our Tianyi faction leads the right path in the world, and we should bear the brunt and be responsible for such troubled heroes. The third apprentice said in detail and specifically.

"Tianyizi" raised his hand and grabbed the beard on his chin, touched it, turned his face sideways, and rolled his eyes a few times, before he whispered: "The secret discovered by the third child is really a big deal. The sect of the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilations has long coexisted with us in the world, but I didn't expect that over the years, they have been cultivating obscurity and secretly growing, and it is likely that they have gathered a large number of disciples and have a powerful system of exercises. The teacher is also quite unfamiliar with the exercises of this sect, and I don't know what path they are. However, as for the characterization of their evil sect and demonic path, it will never be wrong, the third child, as a teacher, I order you to contact the righteous people in the world as soon as possible, including but not limited to the Dishui Cave, Jingxia Villa and the like, choose a day, gather in my Tianyi faction, discuss how to prevent the attack of the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation and other related matters in advance, and work together to discuss a countermeasure. ”

"Yes, follow the teacher's orders. The three apprentices replied quickly.

"Okay, that's the end of today, if you and your disciples have done any righteous deeds or merits to eliminate evil and promote good, report them directly to the third child! During the retreat period for the teacher, all the affairs of the sect were handed over to the third child. That's it, let's disperse!" said the head solemnly.

Lying on the roof of the attic and listening to Yin Taibai for a long time, I felt that the opportunity had come, and after the old man of "Tianyizi" retreated, the Tianyi faction had no leader, and it was the best time to sneak into the "Tianyi Pagoda" to steal the Xuanjing ore.

So, Yin Taibai quickly flew away from the scene, returned to the temporary residence of Tang Dangyang and others, and told his partners such important information.

In the camp tent, Xiao Jieyin also heard this discussion on the side, and Tong Yan interjected and asked: "What kind of Ten Thousand Annihilation Temple did that Uncle Yin mentioned just now, what is it for?

"Eh, speak, you little kid is talking to something. Sister, please take this cub to play elsewhere. Yin Taibai was irritable and said unhappily. The female beggar beside him immediately hugged Jieyin away, glanced at Yin Taibai with hateful eyes, and then walked out of the tent, looking at Jieyin and coaxing, teaching Jieyin not to participate in the conversation between adults.

"The Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilations is a ball, that matter doesn't matter at all, I just want to say that our opportunity to capture the Crystallite Ore has arrived. The head of the Tianyi faction is in retreat, and the disciples have to deal with the 'Righteous Sect's deliberations'. At that time, my father may also come, so we have to get the Xuanjing ore before he comes. Yin Taibai said eloquently.

"Brother, will my father agree with us stealing the treasures of the Tianyi Sect?" Yin Yueyue, who was standing on the side, asked a little panicked.

"Are you stupid?, my father takes the 'Secret of Longevity' so seriously, if he knew that the Xuanjing ore was the key to opening the door of the desert labyrinth 'Shou and Tianqi', would he support it?" Yin Taibai retorted.

"The two of us don't have any opinions, and we are willing to listen to Brother Yin Xian's arrangement. Seeing that Jieyin was disliked and seemed to be preoccupied with Tang Dangyang, Dai Lilu responded to Yin Taibai's strategy together. As he spoke, his eyes meowed out of the curtain of the tent.

In this way, a well-planned "treasure hunting" trip is about to begin.
