The futon in his hand became much heavier.

"Is this really a good choice?" Gu Xuyao couldn't help but ask himself in his heart, everything that has to do with the Heavenly Evil Bead will become extremely weird, whether it is now or before, it has always been like this.

Seeing that Gu Xuyao was hesitant, the old Taoist priest no longer urged, he waited quietly, unlike the urgency of the Heavenly Evil Pearl, Gu Xuyao felt that since this was the case, he should be more cautious.

"What's the difference between a futon?" he tried to ask, but the old Taoist priest shook his head, not knowing whether he didn't or didn't want to sue Gu Xuyao.

"Well, I don't take a futon, I sit on the floor. As he spoke, Gu Xuyao put the futon on the ground.

"There are rules in the world, if you want to sit down in front of me, you have to use a futon, if not, don't talk about it, I won't tell you anything, you choose. ”

Frowning, Gu Xuyao looked around at the futons around him again, and gradually, he seemed to feel that each futon had its own differences, maybe just small differences, or holes, or patches, could this subtle difference be the reason for the choice?

Looking at the futon under his feet, it was intact, and what he took at random seemed to be the best of all the futons, and it was precisely because of its standing out that Gu Xuyao felt that this thing was even more strange in his heart.

"Hateful ......" Since stepping into the ranks of cultivation, Gu Xuyao has encountered many puzzles, each of which is very deadly and very complicated, but this ordinary problem in front of him actually made Gu Xuyao, who had solved countless puzzles, feel a little powerless.

It's just a futon, and it doesn't seem that you will lose your life if you take it wrong. It's not even a question at all in a certain way.

"Yes, maybe it doesn't make a difference at all. Thinking of this, Gu Xuyao took a deep breath and no longer hesitated, picked up the intact futon and sat down calmly in front of the old Taoist.

"Huh?" Seeing the firmness on the other party's face, Lao Dao couldn't help but let out an exclamation sound. "Not bad, not bad. He grinned, the wrinkles cascading like a winding mountain road.

"Alright, now let's talk about what the hell is going on here, what the hell is here. ”

"Don't worry, didn't you just say that you are dead or not? Let's talk about this first. ”

Obviously, this old way did not make Gu Xuyao happy. From the beginning to the present. He is occupying the initiative, he can't, Gu Xuyao is in someone else's territory right now.

"Am I alive or dead?"

"Hehe, I'll ask you first. Do you think you're living or dying?"

"How do I know? Why do I want to know what I'm asking you for?"

Hearing such an inexplicable question, Gu Xuyao's first reaction was, of course, to refute it. However, the old Taoist priest has his own set. He smiled and shook his head, motioning for Gu Xuyao to answer his question.

Patient, Gu Xuyao let out a sigh of relief. casually said: "Just when I was born." ”

"Well, what do you think is life and what is death?"

Now Gu Xuyao finally understood the meaning of this old Taoist priest, he seemed to want to discuss the reason with Gu Xuyao, since he knew the other party's purpose, he also replied carefully, after all, this is the only thing that can be done now: "The living are for life, they can walk, they can fly, they can walk, they can eat, they can drink, they can sing, the dead are dead, they are silent, they are silent, and the impermanence of the world has nothing to do with them." ”

The old Taoist priest knew that Gu Xuyao understood what he meant, so he nodded with a smile, but his mouth was unforgiving, and he continued to argue: "But I have also heard that the living are not alive and the dead are not dead, what do you think?"

"If so, is it not the living to die, and the dead to live? In that case, what is the difference between life and death? I am born and I am dead, and even if I die, am I still alive?"

"So ......"

"So life and death are actually just bullshit, no matter how much you and I talk about it, it's useless, it's better to change the topic than this. ”

Laughing heartily, the old Taoist priest nodded again and again, but it was not that what Gu Xuyao said was reasonable, in fact, the truth and crooked reason in this world are just personal cognition, some people are unreasonable in their eyes, and even the truth of heaven and earth dare to challenge, and now the old Taoist priest is just amused by Gu Xuyao's reason.

"Very good, what a bullshit, then let me ask you, how do you think a monk counts life and death?"

"Monk?"

"That's right, monk. ”

The smile on the old man's face grew thicker and thicker, and it was obvious that he was looking forward to Gu Xuyao's answer.

This question made Gu Xuyao think a lot, the various personnel he encountered at the beginning of his cultivation, as well as his tragic life experience and unfinished tasks, of course, there was also that peaceful little life, maybe if Gu Xuyao's parents did not disappear, he was just a hunter, but now, it cannot be said that he is ambitious, but he already has a firm belief in his heart.

"He who stands up to the heavens and the earth lives otherwise, and if not, it is no different from death. This was Gu Xuyao's final answer, and when he said it, his face was unwavering and did not waver at all.

"Then what is the one who stands up to the heavens and the earth?"

"Everything is worthy of the heart, worthy of the heaven and the earth, not subservient, not bullying, the sky falls without changing color, standing on the earth's waist like a peak. ”

"Even if you die, do you want to stand up to the sky?"

"That's right. ”

After three consecutive questions, the old Taoist's face began to become solemn, as if Gu Xuyao's answer made him not very satisfied, the person concerned quickly noticed this, in fact, soon, the old Taoist priest actually had a murderous aura flowing out, Gu Xuyao didn't know what he said wrong, but at the moment, his first reaction was of course to open a safe distance, but unfortunately the speed of the old Tao's shot was faster than Gu Xuyao, I don't know how much, I saw his old hand flash, and he directly grabbed Gu Xuyao's immortal source!

The heart-rending pain made Gu Xuyao tremble, and the worst thing was that Xianyuan was accused of having no strength in his body at this time, and even speaking was very reluctant.

"You...... What are you going to do......" Cold sweat soaked his clothes, that kind of pain is not something that ordinary people can understand, Xianyuan was directly kneaded, this would have been replaced by an ordinary monk who had already passed out!

"I? I don't want to do anything, I just want to ask you again in this situation if you still insist on standing up to the sky. The old Taoist priest's face was expressionless, and the strength in his hand did not weaken in the slightest.

"Who are you and why...... Ah......" Lao Dao didn't want to hear other answers, Gu Xuyao realized that he could only follow him, so he replied: "Yes, I insist, so what!"

As soon as the words fell, the power of kneading the immortal source increased, and the pain was even worse, and Gu Xuyao couldn't even scream.

"Ask you again, do you insist?"

"Yes......"

The voice that was almost held out with all the strength of his throat, and the old Taoist priest ruthlessly continued to increase the strength in his hand after hearing it.

Xianyuan is the most important thing for monks, if Xianyuan is destroyed, then the monk will also be destroyed, now Gu Xuyao's life gate is caught by the other party, he has tried all the methods to fight back, first of all, his own yuan power can no longer be used, even those living dead and mutated beasts integrated into the body do not obey the call.

"It's too late for you to change your mind. Lao Dao's eyes began to shoot an indifferent gaze, which felt as if he was looking at a dead corpse, without any emotion.

"You...... You can do it...... "Gu Xuyao has always been a person who eats soft and does not eat hard, even if he dies, how can he succumb to such an old Taoist.

However, the other party didn't seem to be in a hurry to let Gu Xuyao die, he increased the strength in his hand again, at this time Gu Xuyao knew that this was already his limit, and even a little more strength Dao Xianyuan would be crushed.

"Even so, you still have to hold on, don't you?" the old Taoist priest began to laugh contemptuously.

Talking has become a luxury, and shaking his head can't do it, Gu Xuyao shook his eyes to achieve the effect of shaking his head after hearing the words.

Seeing that the other party was like this, Lao Dao had a bullish temper, he seemed to want Gu Xuyao to give in today, he said fiercely: "Hmph, okay, I'll see how long you can hold on!"

The situation was stalemate like this, Lao Dao pinched Gu Xuyao's immortal source, the pain was torturing Gu Xuyao all the time, trembling had become a habit, but no matter what, he didn't relax at all, but the more he was like this, the more determined Gu Xuyao was, he didn't know why, but if the other party wanted to kill him, he would have done it a long time ago, and there must be other purposes for trying to make him succumb to such torture!

Time passed quietly, the clouds and mist on the lonely cliff fluttered slowly, silent, no one and no shadow, this world is so lonely, except for Gu Xuyao and the old Taoist priest in the Taoist temple, by the way, there is also Gu Xuyao's pain.

In fact, to maximize the pain, other assistance is needed, such as not letting Gu Xuyao numb it, such as not letting Gu Xuyao fall into a coma.

It is also strange to say that the old Taoist priest's method of pinching the immortal source is very special, or rather, sophisticated. Not to mention that the strength has been controlled very exquisitely, the gradually increasing power is the thing that brings Gu Xuyao the most pain, in fact, Xianyuan's tenacious Cheng dù is much beyond Gu Xuyao's imagination, it has been ravaged constantly, step by step to its own limit, the pain is getting worse and worse, but it insists on not breaking!

God knows how long this torture will last, and how long has it been? No one knows, but the old Dao looked at Gu Xuyao's gaze more and more deeply, from the initial indifference to a state of inexplicability.

"I'll ask you one last time, are you going to change your mind?"

Lao Dao's voice was hoarse, as if he had experienced something terrible, but even so, Gu Xuyao would not admit defeat, at this time, the pain was like a big lock locking him firmly, he couldn't even shake his eyeballs, the only way he could use it to express his wishes was just to take a few breaths!

The old Taoist priest glared angrily when he saw this, he was tired of waiting like this, and suddenly his hand suddenly increased his force, and the immortal source was about ......to be shattered!
