The sky was getting brighter, and the thin light of the morning sun pierced the gaps between the bamboo strips.

Yougen consciously got up from the bed, put on his brand new robe, walked to the door, and pushed open the wooden door.

Facing the pale sky, a pair of hands spread out and stretched.

From Yougen's body, there was a muffled sound of "click".

The knotted muscles on his arms were stretched, revealing abrupt lines from under the robes.

Yougen sighed in satisfaction, raised his legs and walked along the long corridor towards the main hall of the Taoist temple.

As he passed through one of the transepts, the door of the transept opened.

Rootless, dressed in a bright yellow robe, walked out of it.

Yougen stepped aside and saluted with his hands together.

"Senior brother. ”

"Senior brother. Rootless flicked his sleeves and bowed slightly towards Yougen.

Immediately, rootless and rooted, side by side, left the main hall.

The cushions in the main hall were empty.

The two brothers and sisters gave incense to the bronze statue in turn and bowed.

Wugen walked outside the Taoist temple with Yougen and came to the opening of the wall.

"Senior brother. Rootless reached out and pulled out a white rag from his cuff and handed it to Root's hand.

A one-meter-long rag does not see a trace of dust on the surface, nor does it have a trace of wrinkles.

The cloth is snow-white.

"This cloth scripture can't be torn apart with all your current vitality, and you can use your vitality to help you with this cloth to wipe the floor. ”

Looking at the white cloth in his hand, remembering the broom that spread out in his hand last night, Yougen smiled awkwardly and agreed, "Yes, senior brother." ”

"I'm afraid I'll only come back in the afternoon this time, remember to clean the main hall and take care of the master. ”

"Yes, brother. ”

Wugen smiled slightly, turned his back to Yougen, and faced the white sky outside the Taoist temple.

The whole body was bathed in the morning light that poured through the opening of the wall.

The simple hairpins, the confined buns, and the black hair that falls down to the cheeks have a faint gold edge.

The breeze blew and blew the cuffs that hung to the ground.

Rootless leaned back slightly and flew into the sky.

One of them stood in place with a white cloth in his hand, waving his right hand vigorously.

"Senior brother, go all the way!"

The rootless form flew through the air and flew into the mountains, in the thick mist.

Yougen lowered his hand, put the rag over his shoulder, and stood still, staring at the mountain mist.

Gazed at it for a long time.

Reaching out and wiping the itchy corners of his eyes, he looked at the transparent watery liquid on his fingers after touching the corners of his eyes.

"What's going on?"

The palm of his hand touched the robe at the mouth of his heart, and Yougen frowned.

"Why is it so uncomfortable?"

Yougen looked at the place where the rootless figure had disappeared again, and his brow furrowed even deeper.

"You're rooted, aren't you?"

At this moment, a voice sounded in Yougen's ears.

The voice is as crisp as the singing of a yellow warbler, and as tactful as the low song of a cuckoo.

It was a woman who made the voice.

Yougen turned his head, and his eyes were imprinted with a dazzling bright yellow.

The woman is beautiful.

Like a fairy in the sky.

Yougen was stunned, and the white-haired woman walked up to Yougen and smiled.

One of his legs went limp, and he sat down on the ground.

"I'm your master's guest, take me in. ”

Looking at Yougen sitting on the ground, the smile on the woman's face remained unchanged, but the gaze in her eyes was cold.

looked at the woman's face in a daze, and opened her mouth wide.

"I'm your master's guest, take me in!"

The woman repeated it again, her tone getting heavier, but the smile on her face did not change.

"Ahh

"Fairy, this way, please. ”

There is a ninety-degree bow, and the palm of the hand is spread out to point to the position of the Taoist temple.

The woman turned around and walked towards the Taoist temple.

One foolishly came to lead the way in front of the woman, completely forgetting the white cloth on the ground.

In the Taoist temple, in the main hall, the Taoist people sit on the soft cushions.

Keep your eyes closed and your hands together.

His demeanor was serene, and a light smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Didn't you say that your guests will arrive tomorrow?"

When the woman walked into the hall, she did not salute, and her eyes looked directly at the old face of the Kedao people.

"It was a smooth journey, and it went a little faster. ”

"I see. Hearing this, Kedao nodded slightly.

"There are roots. ”......

"Rooted?"

"Ah, it's beautiful. Yougen, who was standing next to Kedaoren and had been looking at the woman, said softly.

"There are roots!"

"Ah, yes!"

"Wugen hasn't come back yet, and the dishes in Guannei are light, so you will take the distinguished guests down the mountain, go to Qingshui Town, and ask the mayor to entertain the distinguished guests. ”

Hearing this, Yougen looked happy and said eagerly: "Yes, Master." ”

"Your guests are also cultivators, so you can just have a good exchange along the way. ”

"Yes, Master. The smile on Yougen's face became brighter and brighter, and he put his hands together and bowed to the Kedao people.

Unbeknownst to him, the white-haired woman looking at her back had a cold gaze in her eyes.

It's like looking at a dead man.

Twenty miles away from the foot of the Huangwai Mountain, there is a clear water town.

At this point, it's burning.

Scattered flames swept across the town's buildings, on motionless corpses, on blood flowing on the ground.

The fire flew violently.

The air around the flames churned and twisted.

But there was not a trace of black smoke.

The sky is still blue and immaculate, dotted with white clouds.

As always.

Three men dressed in black robes and hats looked up at the sky above them with their backs to the burning town.

They seem to be waiting for something.

It didn't take long for five dark shadows to appear in the eastern sky.

Five black-robed men fell outside the town.

Fell beside the three black-robed men.

With his back to the town, one of the three black-robed people reached out and took off the hat on his head, and turned his head to look at the five black-robed people who landed beside him.

"Is the formation ready?"

In the morning light, on the handsome face of the black-robed man, the skin was as pale as snow.

Under the thin eyebrows, there are no pupils on the eyeballs in the sunken eye sockets.

His lips were as red as cinnabar, but his voice was hoarse.

The throat is like a broken gong.

"The formation to the east has been laid out, senior brother. The five black-robed men thought about clasping their palms together, bowed and spoke.

Hearing this, the man who was called Senior Brother by the black-robed man showed an evil smile on his face.

"The juniors and disciples from the west and south should also be back soon, and after waiting for so long, they have finally waited until today. ”

The man looked up at the huge outline of the desolate mountains in the distance, restrained the evil smile on his face, and turned to show a touch of anger.

"The sect master was intercepted and killed by the masters of Buddhism and Taoism, all the way to the wilderness, there was no enemy in his hands, he ran to the outside of the plug, and was beaten by more than 300 people from the sect outside the wilderness, and the sect master almost killed them, but he was also led to this mountain, and he disappeared. ”

Seven black-robed men flew from the sky to the west and south and flew out of the town.

Flew to the side of the eight black-robed men.
