In late June, the new campus of Songcheng University.

"I feel like I haven't come for a long time..." Yan Zheke stood on the long bridge, looking at the Weishui Lake illuminated by street lights, and the waterside roads that had been walking with Lou Cheng day after day. He only felt that every scenery and every corner could make him recall different pictures.

All the past, the two-year interval, appeared vividly in her mind again.

Lou Cheng also sighed and agreed: "I haven't walked this path for almost a year."

But I always think about it, thinking about the initial throbbing and the purest beauty, thinking about the hard-won thing, telling myself not to get used to it, and to know how to cherish and maintain it.

"Let's go, sister invites you to take another walk~" Yan Zheke's starry eyes were bright, and his slender right hand was stretched out with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Lou Cheng grabbed it, looked forward, coughed twice, and laughed:

"I remember every time you took the initiative to invite me to take a walk by the lake, you were hinting and acquiescing that I could make out..."

What about today?

Yan Zheke's eyes wide open, his mouth half open, and his pretty face turned red and said:

"No!"

"It's all you are too hooligan!"

"I won't go for a walk with you!" She added hatefully, trying to pull her palm back, but Lou Cheng held it tightly and couldn't break free. She had to bite her teeth secretly, followed her side with a grievance, down from the long bridge to the lake, along the past memories, crossing the familiar scenes, and wandering in the journey of real and illusion.

The holding hands at that time, the first kiss at that time, the girl took out a tissue, the boy was responsible for wiping the wooden bench, the gossip that he was casually whispered, and the youthfulness that he felt satisfied after taking a few walks every night, suddenly became vivid in his mind, making Yan Zheke and Lou Cheng seem to have walked into the gap between the past and the present.

"Fortunately, fortunately we are still together, otherwise we would definitely be very regretful..." Yan Zheke suddenly spoke out and sighed.

Such a regret will be a wound that will never be healed in a lifetime.

Lou Cheng's fingers moved secretly, and he tightly ties with the little fairy, solemnly promised:

“We will keep going.”

"Yeah!" Yan Zheke nodded vigorously.

After walking a few more steps, Lou Cheng pointed to the roadside and laughed softly and spoke:

"This is where I found the green fish and picked up the golden elixir."

"Here..." Yan Zheke stretched out his eyebrows, looked curiously, and whispered in a low voice.

She stared carefully for a few seconds, then suddenly turned sideways at the lake water, folded her hands together, closed her bright eyes slightly, and muttered something.

"Ke Ke, what are you doing?" Lou Cheng asked blankly.

The girl's dimples emerged, her lips pursed slightly, and she smiled sweetly:

"I am thanking Qingyu classmate! If it weren't for it, some fool might have backed down by himself. This is the origin of everything!"

"It probably won't like you to say that... It's better to live than to die." Lou Cheng laughed and shook his head, then cleared his throat and said, "The real cause should be that I saw you standing outside the martial arts club in Hanfu, and finally mustered up the courage to chat with him. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have come to the lake to run at all."

Yan Zheke's starry eyes were half turned, and the waves were rippling and asked back with a funny look:

"Is this the lyrics, 'Just because I looked at you more in the crowd'?"

Her voice is clear and her singing is wonderful.

Lou Cheng listened with a smile and teased: "Class Ke Xiaoke, are you saying sweet words to me?"

"If you say yes, that's it~" Yan Zheke put his hands behind his back and walked forward lightly.

The young couple circled around the lake, relived the feeling in the places they had been intimate in the past, calmed down the heat and breathing rhythm of their faces, and finally waited for Old Man Shi.

He was still old, but the frequency of coughing was significantly reduced. The Nine-Character Skills improved the spirit and the spirit's feeding on the body did not completely cure his old injuries, but it also relieved him a lot.

"Get into the water, don't you tell me, old man, I really forgot that something happened." Comrade Shi Jianguo admitted frankly.

Yan Zheke was covering his mouth and laughing, but he felt that the master and apprentice were really similar in some aspects!

It’s not that the whole family doesn’t enter the whole family!

Well, am I scolding myself...

The unreliable old man... Lou Cheng secretly complained, took out his mobile phone, wallet and other items, and handed it to his wife.

After thinking for a while, he felt that there was no need to force himself to be a master. Old Man Shi also kept his phone and walked into the lake step by step. The cold air filled his body and formed crystal clearness. If he wanted to freeze himself, it would not affect his movements.

Lou Cheng imitated and took a deep breath, making every inch of his skin shine with a cold glow.

The master and apprentice went further and further away, and the body parts exposed outside the water became fewer and fewer. In the end, they calmed down their center of gravity and completely disappeared in front of Yan Zheke.

The waves of light floated around, and hidden pressure came, and Lou Cheng let the body enter a state of fetal breathing, just like practicing at the bottom of the water to seek alienation of the root marrow.

——When he reached his current level, he stayed at the bottom of the water for more than ten or twenty minutes without any problem.

As the lush aquatic plants swayed, Old Man Shi's mouth twitched, causing ripples, causing them to surge around Lou Cheng, bringing a sound that seemed to originate from the horizon:

"The bottom of the lake is quite big. I looked around for my teacher briefly, but I didn't find anything. Do you have to investigate inch by inch this time?"

Lou Cheng also answered in a voice transmission manner: "Master, you think that if the green fish swallowed the golden elixir, it must have occurred on the spot. The range of its ability to swim out or jump is limited. We may gain when we look for the area close to the discovery location."

"If you can't find it, I'll slap you for the master!" Old Man Shi always felt that his apprentice was often not reliable.

Keeping his feet on the ground and moving forward slowly, Lou Cheng and Old Man Shi looked around in the dark rippling water waves, distinguishing the special, and condensed a "ice mirror" or "the enemy of Bing Xin" to understand the subtleties.

After searching for most of the circle in this area near the lakeside, Old Man Shi suddenly stopped and frowned and said:

"It's true that the feeling here is different from when I came last time. It seems to be changing according to the moon phase..."

The problem cannot be discovered by a separate investigation, but after two comparisons, the abnormality appears!

With his powerful night vision, Lou Cheng grasped the faint light underwater, looked around and saw the area in full view.

The dense gravel and stones, the swaying water plants, and the garbage that no one has thrown down. Apart from these, there is nothing else, let alone the entrance to the cave.

After pondering for a few seconds, Lou Cheng followed the pre-designed plan and formed seals with both hands, constantly changing, and the ancient visualization characters in his mind also jumped.

"Let's fight!!" He opened his mouth and said, and the sound shook the surroundings, allowing the water waves to rise and fall out in a regular way.

"All! Array! Front! Route!"

As soon as the word "明" came out, nine seal characters appeared deep in the lake, combining them into that three-dimensional one, which seemed to contain a strong mysterious rune.

Rumble!

At this moment, a low buzzing sound came from somewhere. As the water waves swayed, a crack was cracked at the bottom of the lake composed of sand and gravel and stones, revealing the stone steps extending downwards.

"Using the help of the moon to attract the arrangement..." Old Man Shi commented with disdain, "Boy, the night you got the golden elixir was the waning moon, right? And the green fish had no wisdom either."

"I don't remember..." Lou Cheng answered truthfully.

"What do you remember?" Old Man Shi shook his head and cursed, and walked along the stone steps toward the cave. The inside was moist but waterless.

Lou Cheng suppressed the surging of his heart, followed the master, went deep into the bottom, and saw the simple and empty stone chamber.

There was only one cloud bed here, with a few yellowed paper and a ragged feathered jacket on it.

"It's not like the cave where Longhu Real People's Daily Life..." Old Man Shi, who had seen many relics of cultivation, frowned and whispered.

Lou Cheng looked around and guessed:

"Maybe it's a place where you're locked up?"

The feathered clothes seemed to be worn by real Longhu before his death, so what about his body?

"It's possible." Old man Shi moved closer and was about to reach out to pick up his feather suit. The light breeze made the other party instantly rot and scattered in the stone chamber!

On the contrary, the notes-like pages remained intact.

Lou Chengning looked at him and read the text on the first one:

"The deadline is approaching, and I have been practicing hard for a hundred and thirty years, which is very regretful, very regretful."

"The seniors seek the independence of their souls and spirits, and want to make babies in the golden elixir, get rid of the constraints of their bodies, and wander between heaven and earth. Unfortunately, for thousands of years, there is no one who succeeds. I will not go this way, imitating the immortal heaven and earth to form elixirs, seeking the survival of life. However, the road ahead is vast and the dangers are numerous, and it ends here."

Old man Shi flipped through other papers and read them quickly. At the end, the master and apprentice finally understood what Longhu Zhenren did and why his golden elixir has been preserved to this day.

According to the Longhu Zhenren, once a cultivator sits and transforms, the golden elixir that loses the host of "soul" will either quickly lose control and explode, or barely maintain balance, and then quickly disperse. He uses ice and fire to imitate Yin and Yang and the starry sky to form a elixir, reflecting nature outside, and rotating in balance, hoping to be "immortal" like the heaven and earth.

Based on this point, before he sat in the process of transformation, he planned to fight, which was to reverse the spirit and feed back the body, so that his body could be completely destroyed, and to ignite the spirit, completely integrate the "spirit" with the golden elixir, and use the "immortality" of the golden elixir to obtain his own longevity. For possible success, he changed the star sorting inside the golden elixir and "inscribed" the Nine-Character Skills and his own martial arts.

This idea is unprecedented. The real person of Longhu is not sure at all. He tried to write notes before for reference by fellow Taoists, which was considered to be a trial and error by later generations.

As for what happened in the middle, it was difficult for Lou Cheng and Old Man Shi to know, and only saw the final result, that is, the real person of Longhu failed to survive forever, and the golden elixir had no independent will, but it was strangely preserved until now.
