Tracing the Origins of the Past Chapter 45
Forty-fifth
Today's Tang Dangyang, although his hairstyle has not changed much, and his appearance is roughly the same, but there are a few more vicissitudes on his face, there are a few slag marks on his lips and chin, but his beard is not long.
"You...... You...... Are you?" Tang Dangyang's pupils suddenly contracted and suddenly expanded, and he asked in a trembling manner.
"I'm Yin'er, Uncle Tang. It's great to see that you're not dead!" Kai Yin's eyes moistened, too, and he responded.
Tang Dangyang looked at Jieyin's pointed lips and savored what Jieyin had just said, so he dared to be sure that the person in front of him was indeed Jieyin.
"Yin'er, is it really you? Over the years, Uncle Tang has been so hard to find you!" Tang Dangyang looked at Jie Yindao.
After that, Tang Dangyang immediately politely persuaded other guests who bought medicine: "Ladies and gentlemen, our store is not open today, no business, I hope you have a lot of Haihan, I can't help you, I'm sorry." β
"Heyββ! let's go. The crowd dispersed, empty-handed, and returned disappointed.
After sending away all the irrelevant and irrelevant guests, Tang Dangyang hugged Jieyin tightly, and the reunion of this sector was exactly what Tang Dangyang was looking forward to day and night. After looking forward to it for so many years, today, there is finally a brilliant ending.
"Yin'er, the emperor lives up to his wishes, and finally let me see you again in my lifetime. By the way, there is a big thing I want to tell you, which is related to the 'secret of longevity'. Come, go to the back room. It's a little bit of a clue that took me twelve years to find. After the guidance of the crystal ball of the head of the ethereal lake, I probably already know the approximate location of the desert labyrinth, and when I choose an auspicious day, I will take you, and then call the predecessor of the zero-hair, and we will go to the desert maze together to try to dig up the last treasure. By the way, child, where have you been all these years?" Tang Dangyang invited earnestly and sincerely.
"Uncle Tang, you are really persistent, you have been persisting in exploring that secret for so many years. If I hadn't heard you mention it, Yin'er would have forgotten what the 'secret of longevity' was. Back then, on the shore of the Ethereal Lake, I thought you had been killed or drowned underwater, so I wanted to rush back to Quexian Island to report to Aunt Li, who knows...... Later, Yin'er has been supported by the master called 'Burning Sun Rakshasa' all these years, and he forcibly taught me the flame magic skills, so I didn't have the opportunity to meet you a few years ago. In other words, Master Rakshasa is very good to me. Uncle Tang, Yin'er also has a big matter to tell you. Jieyin recounted.
"Oh, what are you referring to?" Tang Dangyang asked, shaking off his black and white emission.
"A few days ago, I just went to Jingxia Villa, and the Zhuang Ding in the villa was empty, except for the head of the house, I only saw two little ghosts. The two children, a boy and a girl, were probably in their early teens. I suspect that the baby that Uncle Tang was taken away on the day of the typhoon broke out on Quexian Island was one of the children. However, I have no evidence, but I feel that something is wrong through the eyes of the gloomy wind. When I asked about it, it didn't seem normal for the Yin Feng Sanren to deliberately avoid it. Jieyin said.
"Hehe, Yin'er, I think you are too worried! There are countless people in the world, and there are many people of all ages, how can you conclude that one of the two children you see is the child of me and your Aunt Li? This is pure speculation, and you don't need to take it to heart. Actually, later, you Aunt Li and I conceived a new baby, but unfortunately, it was taken away by a big villain! I don't know if the masked man who appeared the first time and the second time was the same person, but the first time even the eldest sister disappeared, I think that the eldest sister and my hard-working child were blown into the sea by a typhoon and drowned. In short, if a child is lost, if I want to find it for a while, it is not easy to say, I can't just see a child of the same age, let's just say that it is my flesh and blood! The child is my own child, and I know the bitterness in my heart, so I don't want to be a traitor. On the contrary, my son Yin Taibai and my daughter Yin Yueyue used to be friends who shared weal and woe, and there was no reason why he did it. Yin'er, thank you for sharing my worries, but this matter will be put aside for now. The 'recipe for longevity' is our priority at the moment. Tang Dangyang said eloquently.
"Well, that's good, I'll listen to Uncle Tang. By the way, let's go to find the desert labyrinth, why do we need to call Ling Maosu, shouldn't we bring Aunt Li with us?" asked Jie Yin puzzled.
"Your Aunt Li...... Twelve years ago, she had parted ways with me, she had no intention of 'longevity', but if I could come out alive with the 'longevity', I would definitely send it to Quexian Island as soon as possible and hand it over to her. As for bringing Ling Maosuo's seniors, it's a long story, and he and I are already very good partners and partners. The most difficult thing for me is the leech man who is the demon of the Western Regions, I once had an agreement with him, he handed over the 'wood' attribute Xuanjing ore in his hand to me, and he needs a piece of the pie. However, I was also helpless, and if I didn't provoke him, I wouldn't be able to get the key. After provoking him, I found that I and my predecessors still only had four stones on hand, and they still didn't have enough to make up. However, age is not forgiving, I can't wait any longer, I can also gamble with these four stones, maybe, enter the 'Shou and Tianqi' realm, four is enough!" Tang Dangyang said.
Jieyin nodded in a sudden realization, and seemed to understand a lot of little-known behind-the-scenes anecdotes. However, even Jieyin didn't expect that the fifth Xuanjing ore that his Uncle Tang was looking for - "fire" was actually on Jieyin's body at this moment.
At the same time, being splashed (poured) with such cold water by Tang Dangyang, he lost the motivation to check the two children in the pavilion of Jingxia Villa again.
After a tedious and complicated process of planning, raising, and preparation, and a delay of about half a month, in the end, Tang Dangyang joined hands with Jieyin and Ling Maosuo, a total of three people, under the nose of the 'Flower Picking Immortals' leech man - the Taklamakan Desert, operating the process of digging yellow sand and exploring the precise point of the labyrinth.
Because before this, Tang Dangyang had been inspired by the crystal ball to reveal the history of the formation of the desert maze, through the image on the surface of the crystal ball, it was more vaguely reflected the rough location of the desert maze, Tang Dangyang only needed to dig a hole in a small area to find the entrance to the maze.
Although there are many good things, but "there is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of people with hearts", after Tang Dangyang and others have been digging hard for several days, the heavenly court that has been sleeping under the yellow sand for thousands of years - the desert labyrinth was finally found by Tang Dangyang.
"Found it, we found it, right, it won't be wrong, there is no error, here it is!" Tang Dangyang howled excitedly.
"Hahaha...... Hahaha! The old man can finally live forever and live for a long time!"
Jieyin's expression was flat and his emotions were calm, as if nothing had happened, and he only knew how to follow Uncle Tang and help him in times of crisis.
"Little brother, you say, if we go down and get the 'Recipe for Longevity', should we give the treasure to the leech man?"
"Senior Lingmaosuo, first of all, reputation is the foundation of our cultivators, how can we lose our trust in what we promise? Secondly, the leech male demon method is profound, what do you think we have done in this desert, we can hide it from him? Third, the Xuanjing ore has not been gathered so far, whether we can open the boundary gate, it is not yet known, you should not be too happy. Tang Dangyang said relatively rationally.
In this way, the three of them jumped off the entrance of the maze and entered the intricate passages of the maze with the beautiful fantasy and longing for the "secret of longevity".
"Yin'er, Lingmaosuo's seniors, don't worry, although the 'iron piece' that carved the maze map has long been lost, I have memorized it all, and it is in my mind, and I can't forget it. Later, you will follow me, the wrong path is a dead end, only one path is right, and it can run through. Jumping underground, Tang Dangyang lit a torch, looked at the one hundred and eighty intersections that appeared in front of him, and said to his partner beside him.
Jieyin also held a torch and looked around in all directions, feeling the gloom and horror of this place. Suddenly, a very depressing, very cold feeling suddenly appeared, as if there were many invisible dangers, secretly watching them in the dark.
Even Ling Maosuo, who has cultivated so deeply to such a terrifying realm, feels that the aura of this labyrinth is very abnormal, revealing evil and weirdness everywhere.
Despite this, it is not easy to find this place, and the road still has to be walked. Tang Dangyang took the lead, walked in the forefront, and guided his partners.
As everyone knows, the desert labyrinth is not a physical space, but another plane, also known as illusion, secret realm, and exotic land. After jumping off the entrance, you just enter the labyrinth corridor on the outer layer, and after passing through the gate of "Shou and Tianqi", it is really another world. And what that world will look like and what it will be is still to be further explored, excavated and worked hard by the three of them.
The words are divided into two ends, within the universe, the sky is round, and they also step on the same soil, but in another location, Sword Pavilion Shu Mountain, two other things happened.
The first thing is that not long ago, the "Silver Needle Holy Hand" treated the injured disciples of the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation as You Fang Langzhong (in the name), and was successfully invited to join by the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation, and successfully entered the interior of the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation. The whole process, how smooth and smooth it was, was exactly the same as the expected (planned) process steps, and it did not arouse the suspicion of any disciple in the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation.
The second thing is that Li Lu dressed up with heavy makeup, wearing a pink tight-sleeved top, plus a pink long skirt with flying streamers, endless splendid and elegant beauty, and the whole body was full of the charm and spirit of a fairy in pink. The hazy agility, the graceful posture, and the pungent aroma have truly achieved a magical visual effect that is enough to seduce the soul and make me feel sorry.
Li Lu never wears makeup on weekdays, and has always been famous in the world for her flawless and naturally beautiful makeup. This is not Li Lu's original style at all, but for the benefit of Quexian Island, in order to complete the tasks and instructions assigned by the "Jade Patriarch", and for the long-term survival of the sect, she has to dress herself up like this.
Li Lu rents an ordinary people's house at the foot of Shushan Mountain all the year round, and does not deliberately go up the mountain to provoke the people of the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation, but waits for the rabbit and waits for good news, hoping that one day, the sect leader who goes down the mountain to hunt will take a fancy to him and take the initiative to talk to him. In fact, she is also gambling that if the sect leader does not go down the mountain for a year, two years, or ten years, then her wishful thinking will be completely shattered.
It is precisely the sect leader who is a person who must do everything, and he can be described as "no matter how big or small" and very responsible for the handling and management of the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation. After walking out of the main hall hall, he talked and laughed happily, personally patrolling the mountain, guarding the mountain gate, personally teaching his disciples to practice, and personally patronizing the residences of various hall masters in the living area......
A week, two weeks, three weeks, time passed slowly, and Li Lu walked and watched by the road at the foot of the mountain every day, not leaving an inch, for fear of missing the beautiful opportunity to meet the sect leader. Who would have thought that everything is a routine.
Until one day, the sect leader was alone, and he really walked down the foot of the mountain himself, dodging and hiding in the woods below the mountain, preparing to avoid the people in the sect and test the power of the magic skills he cultivated.
I saw that the sect leader's hands quickly stretched forward and retracted, and a ghostly black mist appeared in the sky, the black mist expanded and spread, and the flowers and trees that had been smoked all withered and wilted on the spot.
"Oops!" At this moment, Li Lu, who was fluttering in pink clothes and full of fairy spirit, fell in the forest, and then followed by a scream. Moreover, Li Lu had already ground a deep blood cut on his ankle beforehand.
The sect leader has good ear skills, and he rushed to hear the sound. I didn't go far before I met Li Lu nearby.
From the visual point of view of the sect leader, what he saw was a stunning woman who was out of the world, carrying a small bamboo basket, lying in the woods in a graceful posture, with a hole cut by a wooden thorn branch on her ankle, blood flowing, this beauty had a sad face, she was really a stunner in the world.
The sect leader walked quickly to Li Lu, looked at her whole body with squinting eyes, and asked pretending to be upright: "This girl, are you okay? Did the fall hurt? Seeing that your ankle has been cut so big, it looks serious, if the girl doesn't mind, can you let me help you see the injury, I know spells, I can help you recuperate." β
Li Lu deliberately pretended to be very innocent, looked at the sect leader blankly, and asked, "Who are you? Do you really know magic? I collected Ganoderma lucidum and other herbs in this mountain forest to make medicine primers, who knows, if I am not careful, I will be injured by this overwhelming branch and leaf." β
"Oh, I'm a member of the Ten Thousand Annihilation Temple of the Immortal Cultivation Sect on this mountain, and I am indeed proficient in a little bit of the Dao, if the girl doesn't mind and dislike it, I can help the girl's foot injury heal." By the way, who is the girl?" the Sect Master asked softly, touching his beard with the word "human".
"I am also a loose cultivator in the rivers and lakes, and I have studied the fur spells of the cultivation world for a few years, but unfortunately I am not good at learning, and I still don't know what is going on with the method of flying body! Fortunately, not long ago, there was a sect in the rivers and lakes, called Quexian Island, which took me in. Thinking that I was new, my boss on the island ordered me to go to various parts of the Central Plains to find rare herbs to strengthen my foundation cultivation. I asked people along the way, and I was guided by the villagers to the foot of this Shu Mountain, where it is rumored that there are more medicinal materials. "Li Lu is as similar to the real thing, and she is so deep in the play that even she believes it to be true.
"I see, Quexian Island is indeed a good faction, and the girl has finally found a home for herself, which can be regarded as a place to live in the long run. Although there are many medicinal materials in Shushan, most of them have already been picked by the disciples of my Ten Thousand Annihilation Temple, come, after I heal your foot injury, girl, I will take you to the sect on the mountain to get some and bring them back for you to use. "The Sect Master.
"That's so thankful, ouch! As the saying goes, you don't get anything to lose, so let me take your sect's herbs for no reason, this ...... Why? Ouch...... It hurts again. Li Lu asked shyly, screaming from time to time, and reached out with difficulty to stroke her injured ankle to show her superb acting skills, oh no, to show that her ankle really hurts.
Seeing this, the sect leader didn't say much, and quickly stretched out his salty pig hand, I don't know if it counts as rubbing oil, anyway, he directly pinched Li Lu's foot between the slaps of his right hand, and then used his left hand luck to give her wound physiotherapy.
During the process, the two hands of the sect leader were in frequent contact with the skin of Li Luer's ankles, but his expression was calm, pretending to be needed for treatment, and he accidentally or inadvertently touched them. He eats the softest, sweetest and fragrant tofu, and decorates himself as a gentleman with peace of mind.
Seeing this, Li Lu's small eyes expressed a rather grateful and pitiful expression and countenance, plus a little shyness. In fact, Li Lu was already secretly happy that the leader of the Demon Sect, who was known as the number one sect in the world, was so easily hooked and completely fell under his pomegranate skirt.
The leader is completely immersed in the joy of helping others, and is fascinated and haunted by dreams but does not know it. Money, status, power. Divine skills, it seems that a cultivator has everything that an immortal cultivator should have, except for the two extravagant hopes of dominating the world and immortality have not yet been realized (achieved), his desires are only women.
