Volume 1: The Human World VIII
Qingyangzi walked in the mountains, his figure was like a phantom, and some of the beasts in the mountains saw it, and some avoided it from a distance. A tiger swooped down on him, but when it pounced, it was empty, and when it tried to look for it again, the man it saw was gone, and it smelled and looked around, and suddenly it ran into the depths of the mountain.
At this time, Qingyangzi's consciousness was all immersed in the 'illusion' and 'emptiness' dharma. These two dharma intentions enveloped him, revealing them in his every move.
The magic intent lingered in his heart, and all kinds of spells naturally flowed out of his heart.
A few days later, he came to Shangjing, the capital of the Yuan Kingdom in Baiyuan Prefecture, and entered a restaurant, the restaurant is called Banbanxian Building. People in the world think that practitioners don't need to eat, but that's wrong. If you are not in the earthly world, of course, you don't need to eat these foods, because there are many things to eat, and the main food is the spiritual dew that comes from the nine heavens away.
And in this world, it is impossible to eat these, so you must eat, but after all, you don't need to eat the same meals as mortals.
There are not many people in this restaurant, but the people here seem to be both rich and expensive, so it can be seen that it is not cheap to come here to eat.
Qingyangzi went up to the second floor, found a position near the window and sat down, there was a shopkeeper who came to greet him, Qingyangzi casually ordered some light dishes and then took a sip of tea on the table, and on the other table in front of him was a woman, who should be under twenty years old, eating the dishes on the table in a hurry, holding a rice bowl and picking up rice, looking like she was very hungry.
On her desk was a long sword, draped in a cloak black on the outside and red on the inside, a tight leather armor on the inside, two sleeves with bracers to bind the sleeves, and a pair of boots under her feet that looked like they had walked a long way and were covered with mud.
She was eating with no one around, and judging from her dress, she must have been born into a rich family, otherwise, there would not have been such a dress, even the jewel-like jewels on the hilt of the sword on the table would not have it in the family.
"Little Er, have you fed my horse? The woman raised her head and shouted, her voice crisp but loud.
Xiao Er immediately responded: "Guest officer, you are feeding." ”
"You have to use haode horse feed, if you eat my horse, you can't afford to pay for it. ”
"It's fed with high-quality wheat mixed with glow-in-the-dark grass, and the guest officer can rest assured. ”
The woman stopped talking, but the speed of eating slowed down significantly, and when she slowed down, it could be seen that she must have been taught by Haode since she was a child, and that kind of posture and temperament is not something that ordinary families can cultivate.
She looked up and saw that Qingyangzi was looking at her, but she just took a look at Qingyangzi's body and went to eat vegetables again. After some time, the woman shouted again, "Little Er, go and lead my horse to the front." ”
"Holo ......"
Someone went to lead the horse for the woman, but the woman was still sitting there, and Kiyoko sat by the window and saw a blue horse being led out downstairs, and the horse looked like a horse and tall. Just when everyone thought that the woman was going to get up and pay for the meal, she jumped down from the window, landed directly on the horse's back, and snatched the reins from the hand of the horse-leading boy.
The blue hissed and jumped high on its front feet.
The little guy who led the horse was taken aback, but he immediately stepped out and stopped in front of the horse, shouting: "Guest officer, you, you, have you paid for the meal?"
If the woman had given the horse to the other party without paying, he would have had a great responsibility, and he did not know if the woman had kept the money.
Right here, someone in the building shouted: "Don't tell her to leave, she hasn't paid for the meal yet......"
Riding on a blue horse and wearing a black cloak, the woman with a long sword in her hand said, "This girl is eating the overlord meal today......!"
As the words fell, the slender feet clamped the horse's belly, and the horse's head was taken by the reins, slightly deviated, and rushed past the little guy who was blocking the road, squeezing the little guy back again and again, and sitting on the ground with his butt.
At this time, a group of people with wooden sticks rushed out of the building, trying to chase the woman on horseback, but there were not many pedestrians on the street at this time, and the woman was running on the street on horseback with great dexterity, and in a blink of an eye it was far away, and it was impossible to catch up.
These things in the world happened in front of Qingyangzi, but it seemed to be extremely far away from him, since the moment he decided to return to the master, his heart was going to be cut off from this world, along the way, the heart that was originally a little anxious because of the fall of the master was getting calmer and calmer, but now he still has a dust relationship in this world.
He went all the way towards Luoxia Mountain, which was only a hundred miles away from Luoxia.
When Qingyangzi arrived at the foot of Luoxia Mountain, it was the time when night was coming, Luoxia Mountain was not high, nor was it precipitous, but it was not a single mountain, but there were three peaks, one of which was the highest, the most difficult, a winding mountain road circled, and there was a Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, and the name of the temple was all over the sky.
There is only one old Taoist priest and a small Taoist priest in the view, the incense is not vigorous, there is a small open space in front of this Taoist temple, when Qingyangzi came to the top of the mountain, turned the end of the winding mountain road zuihou a hemp boulder, there are more than ten people in the eye, there are men and women, old and young.
When Qingyangzi appeared, they looked at Qingyangzi one by one. Qingyangzi is not surprised that there are so many here at this time, because the day after tomorrow is the day of the Immortal Ascension Conference. The Immortal Ascension Conference is a saying in the world, if Qingyangzi had not been expelled from the sect twenty years ago, then he might have to bring his junior brothers and sisters here to recruit disciples.
Qingyangzi heard someone whispering: "There is another one, looking at this person's extraordinary appearance, he should be my rival." ”
The person who spoke was an old man with a rosy face, but gray hair, and a monk, but he was a typical human monk. The monks of the human world practiced the Great Dao Essence scattered in the world by various factions in the Upper Realm, captured some of the scattered Dharma Meanings between heaven and earth through the Great Dao Method, and accumulated spiritual power in the physical body through the method of taking pills and eating qi, the technique of collecting yang, and the method of refining the body.
Their spells are naturally nothing to Qingyangzi, but in the eyes of ordinary people, they are still immortal means.
Luoxia Mountain's ascension to Sendai is not a big secret among the monks in the world, from today's night to tomorrow, there will be a continuous arrival of people, as soon as there are many people, there will naturally be competition, but they don't know that this competition actually does not exist, because there is no limit on the number of disciples recruited by each sect and faction, as long as it meets the recruitment standards of each faction, it will be recruited, but most of the people who come do not meet it.
On the other side of this Shengxiantai Dusty Golden Bridge, there is not only one Tianyan Dao Sect, but also the other two, namely Canglang Sword Palace and Fahua Tantra.
Qingyangzi walked to the Tongtian Temple, looking at the Tongtian Temple in front of him, a sense of cruelty of time surged in his heart, he was taken away from here back then, but the only memory of him and the world only remained in this Tongtian Temple, except for the twenty years since he left the Tianyan Taoist Sect.
He walked through the crowd scattered in the open space in front of the temple, stood at the door of the temple, and looked at the large candle flame lit in the temple, and under the light of the fire, there were no statues of gods there, only the murals on the walls, the mural was a mountain, and a rainbow connected to the sky from the top of the mountain. That mountain is this Luoxia Mountain, and that rainbow is the golden bridge across the dust.
There are also two people in this Taoist temple, but they are not the owners of this Tongtian Temple, these two people are standing in front of the mural, and the other is standing on the wall on the other side and looking at the pair of characters, which are written by Qingyangzi, which is also the origin of his Taoist name.
"The light does not shine on the chaotic sky, a little Yuan Yang thought in his heart. ”
Seeing these words, the memory of this Tongtian Temple in his heart melted quickly like the snow in spring, and turned into spring water flowing in his heart.
Qingyangzi actually has two masters, one of them is the Lingtongzi of the Tianyan School, and the other is the old Taoist priest of Tongtianguan.
The old Taoist priest did not adhere to the Taoist when he left with Lingtongzi, he let him leave a little thought in this world, the old Taoist priest said: Immortals are also people, and no one is not immortals.
Qingyangzi stood there feeling everything familiar and unfamiliar, reminiscing in her heart and savoring the change in mood brought about by this memory recovery.
At this time, another person came in the view, a middle-aged man with black and thick hair walked in, wearing a simple-looking, but luxurious brocade robe. This middle-aged nobleman was also accompanied by a young man, who had a white sheath sword hanging from his waist, and the two of them walked straight towards the view, as if the old man had returned home.
After a while, Qingyangzi heard a slight dispute coming from inside, his mind moved slightly, and the conversation in the apse was in his ears.
It was a child's voice that spoke, and the other was the sharp young man with a long sword hanging from his waist just now.
"Master, he's sick, how can he wake up when he just fell asleep, he really can't vacate the quiet room, please take care of yourself......"
Qingyangzi heard that he had already gone towards the apse, and in the process of leaving, he heard the young man with the sword of the waist county say in a cold voice: "You know the identity of my master, how can he be sick with his nonsensical cultivation, and dare to use this kind of panic to deceive me, quickly go and vacate a quiet room, otherwise, you will definitely change the door of this Tongtianguan." ”
Hu Buzhi is a common name for not adhering to a real person, and this young man calling the three words Hu Buzhi is a great disrespect for not adhering to a real person.
Standing in front of the young man with the sword at the waist was a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, about the size of a Wufenglan stone.
It's just that compared to Wufeng Lanshi, he looks more delicate, and he is not so stable. But no matter what, they are still too young to be nervous and afraid of this kind of thing, in fact, even if an older person encounters this kind of thing, they may not be able to be safe.
The middle-aged man who had come in with the young man stood by with his hands in his hands and looked at the sky, as if it was none of his business.
