Chapter 16: Cause and Effect I
More than 30 years ago, Danhua Paiqi Star Valley. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It is only more than 20 miles northwest of the main peak of Danhua, but few people come.
There is no other reason. This is a cemetery.
Although it is a cemetery, the scenery is extremely beautiful.
Due to the low terrain, the mist in the surrounding mountains gathers here, and the refraction of the sun that is constantly deflecting reflects the ever-changing brilliance of the mi.
Just like the thin veil on the girl's face, it can't cover the glamorous cheeks behind it......
In a mesa on the edge of the valley floor, there is a hut.
Cao An, the elder of the inner door, was sitting on a straw mat in front of the house, pouring himself a drink.
Although the scenery in the eyes is good, there is little interest and full of melancholy.
It's been almost a year since I saw the mausoleum, why hasn't anyone come to take my place yet......
It's good that he is also an inner door elder...... I remember that a few decades ago, when I had just advanced to the middle stage of Jindan and was promoted from the outer gate to the elder of the inner gate, the sect master also met with him in person, and the entire Danhua faction greeted each other with a smile...... What a wonderful time it must have been.
Who would have thought that in the past few decades, it has been difficult to make progress. Xiu Wei has been stopping at the fourth floor of Jindan. Seeing that his potential was about to be exhausted, he was less and less valued by the sect, and a year ago, he was sent to guard the mausoleums of the previous sect masters of the Danhua faction......
said that it was entrusted with a heavy task, but in fact, it was a distribution!
Personal humiliation is still a small matter.
He is more than 100 years old, and he was too late when he stepped into the Jindan realm. Now if you don't step up your breakthrough to increase longevity, you won't have a few decades to live.
What do monks care about most?
It's destiny!
Fight against heaven for eternal life!
Recently, the wrinkles at the corners of my eyes have appeared, and I feel that my internal function is slowly deteriorating.
Now I am like the old ape in the forest.
Silently leave the monkeys and find your last secluded place...... Sleep.
Unwilling, unwilling......
After thinking about it, I drank it all with my neck up.
In Xiong, there was a bitter wine churning.
was in a gloomy mood, but a beam of blue light floated between the two mountains, and it fell in front of him in an instant. but one man.
When I looked up, I recognized it.
"Elder Zhao, why are you here? Could it be that the sect sent you to replace me?"
"Where, where...... I'm looking at Brother Cao, you are drinking yourself in loneliness here, and you have a companion to accompany the wine. I'm here to accompany you...... Isn't that welcome?"
"How dare you...... Brother Zhao laughed. ”
After saying that, Cao An hurriedly took out another cup and poured it up.
"I didn't expect Brother Zhao to be so beautiful now, and I don't forget my brother and I, a down-and-out person...... Only do it first!"
Seeing that Cao An had drunk it, Elder Zhao smiled slightly and drank it himself.
"The drinker is not busy beforehand. Brothers are here, and there is a matter to discuss. ”
"Oh?"
Cao An was a little surprised. Suddenly look up.
"I'm a lonely old man waiting for the dead, and I'm still worried about Brother Zhao...... If there is something, why not speak up. If the cheap body can be used, dare not do your best?"
Zhao Changlao nodded.
That being the case, I will be blunt. ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the deepest part of the mausoleum.
"Brother Cao, do you know who is buried there?"
"Hehe, Brother Zhao laughed. Although Cao is lonely and unheard, he also knows a thing or two. ”
"Oh, why don't you tell me about it?"
As Elder Zhao pointed out, Cao An's gaze became solemn, and there was a hint of admiration in his pupils.
"Speaking of which, our cemetery is very old, and more than ten generations of sect masters have been buried here, and I don't know how many tens of thousands of years. But the deepest part of this is not the one who is buried by the sect master of my sect......"
Saying that, Cao An actually stood up a little excitedly.
One hand caresses the front, and the other hand is tied back.
It seems that the painting of Chinese people, wandering in the eyes, thinking far away.
"This person's name and surname are no longer available. I only know that his realm is unfathomable, and he has reached the peak of Dandao...... Legend has it that in the past, he helped the first sect master of my Danhua faction to establish a mountain and establish a sect, and was even worshiped by my Danhua faction as a master of the Taoist fire inheritance...... Later, due to a catastrophe, he disappeared, leaving only the grave here......"
After all, the tone is full of regret. Turned his head and said, "Brother Zhao, is there anything wrong or missing?"
"That's right, that's right......"
Elder Zhao laughed, "I'm here for him. ”
"I don't know ......"
"Speaking of which, brother, my Jindan fifth-layer realm has been stuck for a few years, but there is no good solution...... Thinking for a long time, the inside is insufficient, and the external force should be found. If you go to that mysterious mausoleum, even if you only get the slightest benefit, won't you be able to ascend to the realm......"
"How dare you ......?"
Cao An was suddenly frightened, and his sword eyebrows were furrowed.
"Why should Brother Cao be excited......
Elder Zhao patted the other party on the shoulder.
"You and I are cultivators, and we are already practicing against the heavens...... Even the heavens have to rebel, don't you dare to rebel against this Danhua faction?"
The mood eased, Cao An still hesitated and shook his head.
"Maybe you're right...... But I can't obey my duty...... Even if Brother Zhao hadn't come, I hadn't heard anything. ”
"Don't be too busy saying no......"
Elder Zhao returned to his seat casually. With a slight wave of his hand, he motioned for Cao An to sit down again.
"What is your duty...... Speaking of your duties, I ask you, what is your duty?"
"Hmph, naturally, I am guarding the ancestral tombs of my previous sect masters. ”
"Wow......"
Elder Zhao smacked the straw mat proudly, as if he had picked up some leak.
"It's clearly about guarding the sect masters of the past dynasties...... But is he the sect master?"
Gritting his teeth and taking a breath, Cao An hesitated.
"Not really...... Can ......"
Elder Zhao interrupted him with a wave of his hand.
"No, it's good that there was his grave first. Even the cemetery of the sect leader of my Danhua sect was slowly built around his position, as a sign of respect...... Therefore, you don't need to guard him at all, and his relics back then were actually not Danhua faction. What does it matter if you and I take it to relieve my eyebrows?"
"This ......"
Cao An was speechless for a while.
Elder Zhao was talking to himself.
"You're really alone here. As long as you don't trigger the alarm, no one will know...... God knows that you know and I know, and God doesn't know ghosts......"
Seeing a hint of intention between Cao An's eyebrows, he hurriedly continued to add oil and vinegar.
"Brother Cao is actually more anxious than me...... Seeing that your old twilight has been revealed, brother, I am also uneasy to look at...... Once the days are over, it is useless to say anything. Once turned to dust, who remembers you...... In this way, this matter is you and me, and it does not enter the ears of others. Once you find something good in it, add two to five, but you pick first!"
Oh, yes.
Once the days are over, it is useless to say anything. Once turned to dust, who remembers themselves......
Gritting his teeth, Cao Anhuo got up.
"It's done!"
"Okay!
Elder Zhao also stood up suddenly and swore with Cao An in the air.
"Today, I share the blessings and misfortunes with Brother Cao, and advance and retreat together, just to take the things in the tomb...... After the deed is completed, it is divided equally, and it is not turned away or abandoned. If you break this oath......"
"Dan shattered!"
Cao An's eyes lit up and said heavily.
Elder Zhao hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"Okay, Dan is shattered!"
