Ye Tian woke up leisurely from his deep sleep. He didn't know how long he had slept and where he was now, but he slept very sweetly and the anger in his heart seemed to have disappeared.
As the saying goes, people can't help themselves in the Jianghu. Ye Tian had no intention of stepping into the Qimen Jianghu, but since he took action to kill the group of tomb robbers, he has actually been involved in it, and he can't extricate himself when it comes to fighting against the enemy.
Ye Tian's nerves have been very tense during this period, but it seems that after this sleep, those negative emotions have lightened a lot, making Ye Tian's mind become extremely clear.
"This...where is this?"
Before he even opened his eyes, Ye Tian smelled a whiff of sandalwood at the end of his nose. The smell was pure and peaceful, and the smell of it made people feel free of any distracting thoughts.
"Sandalwood from Mysore, India?" Ye Tian blurted out. After opening his eyes, he saw a wisp of fragrance burning beside the bed, with lingering fragrance.
Ye Tian's master Li Shanyuan has never been particular about external objects, but he is very particular about tea and sandalwood. He chose to live in Maoshan because Li Shanyuan's favorite Queton tea grows there.
When Ye Tian was practicing and meditating, Li Shanyuan would always light a stick of sandalwood. The fragrance was the same as the one coming from his nose. When Ye Tian was ten years old, all the old sandalwood sticks were used up.
.
Although more than ten years had passed, Ye Tian still smelled the peculiar smell of sandalwood and shouted out.
“My dear friends, yes, it’s sandalwood produced in Mysore, India!”
An old voice sounded in Ye Tian's ears. He turned around and saw a thin Taoist sitting in front of the bed where he was lying.
This Taoist was wearing a green blue Taoist robe and flat Hunyuan hats on his head. His top bun was pinned with a jade hairpin and was neatly combed.
Although the Taoist was extremely thin, his complexion was very rosy and there was no wrinkle on his face. However, Ye Tian could tell from the lines under his eyes that this Taoist must be at least seventy years old.
Ye Tian exerted strength on his waist and abdomen and sat up from the bed. He cupped his hands to the old Taoist in front of him and asked, "May I ask, Master, was it you who saved this kid?"
Although he didn't know how long he had been unconscious, Ye Tian still had fresh memories of what happened before he fainted. He clearly remembered that he fainted at the door of a Taoist temple, and he should be lying in the Taoist temple now.
He lowered his head and looked at his right arm. A layer of herbal medicine was applied to the wound, which made him feel cool. The cross wound that he had scratched open had already healed with scars.
"It's just a coincidence. How can someone outside the country ignore death?"
The Taoist stood up with a smile, poured a glass of water for Ye Tian, and said: "You have been poisoned by snake venom. The poison is extremely violent. Fortunately, you have removed the poison before, and the true energy in your body is strong, which protects your heart."
If you don't have a pulse, there is always snake medicine available to you, and it won't be able to save your life."
After hearing the Taoist priest's words, Ye Tian mentioned the true energy in his body and immediately found that the true energy moved freely without any hindrance. However, just as the Taoist said, the snake venom was gone.
Realizing that he was fine, Ye Tian immediately got off the bed and onto the ground, bowed deeply to the old Taoist, and said, "Thank you, Master, for asking me his Taoist name. I will offer incense to you later."
Thank you for your life-saving grace!"
Ye Tian's life may not be worth much to others, but Ye Tian cherishes it very much. He knows that he owes him a huge favor. The life-saving grace is like rebirth, and he cannot repay it too much.
"Taoist name? Haha, the bald donkeys here all call me Yuanyangzi, little friend, just call me Yuanyang!" The old Taoist smiled and handed the teacup in his hand to Ye Tian.
"Yuan Yangzi?" Ye Tian's heart moved when he heard this, and his face showed surprise.
In ancient times, non-sages were not allowed to have the character "子" behind their names.
For example, Confucius, Mencius, Zhuangzi, Taoist master Ge Hong, Sanfengzi Zhang Sanfeng, etc. are all founders of the sect. If the Taoist in front of you can be called Yuanyangzi, he must be a master with profound Taoism.
"Well, Master Yuanyang, you...what about your arms?"
When Ye Tiancai took the tea cup from Yuan Yangzi, he discovered that the reason why the old man Ganqing looked so thin was because he was missing a left arm.
"Haha, it's nothing."
Seeing Ye Tian's surprised expression, the old Taoist was quite open-minded. He smiled and said, "When I fought with others in my early years, my skills were inferior to them, and that's how it became."
It is an extremely impolite behavior to release spiritual energy to someone to investigate. Therefore, Ye Tian did not sense the energy in the other person's body just now. However, after hearing the words of the veteran, Ye Tian became curious and endured it.
He couldn't help but release his energy.
This test surprised Ye Tianda, because he found that the true energy in the opponent's body was unfathomable, like a black hole, and he was unable to explore to the end!
This person's cultivation was actually comparable to him. Ye Tian was quite surprised. Since he came into the world, except for Li Shanyuan who became an immortal, Ye Tian has never seen anyone who can reach the realm of refining energy and becoming a god.
But in such a Taoist temple in the mountains, such a person actually appeared, which made Ye Tian feel excited for a moment, but he forgot to take back his energy.
"Hey, little friend, you...how did you reach such a state at such a young age?" When the old Taoist healed Ye Tian's injuries, although he knew that he had strong vitality, he did not expect that Ye Tian's state would be so high.
.
"It's just a coincidence." Ye Tian shook his head, looked at Yuan Yangzi and asked: "But the real person has reached the stage of refining qi and becoming a god. Who else in this world can do nothing to you?"
After your kung fu reaches the stage of refining qi and transforming into a god, your mind will have the ability to foresee and predict. As long as you don't want to, you can avoid danger before it comes.
Just like Ye Tian was in danger this time, he also deliberately wanted to kill the people who were chasing him. Otherwise, Ye Tian would have been able to run away when he was in the fishing village. Tianlong and his group would not be able to surround him at all.
Therefore, Ye Tian was sure that Lao Dao's hand must have been lost in a single fight.
Thinking of this, Ye Tian felt slightly depressed. He originally thought that he was the only one in the world who had reached the stage of refining qi and becoming a god, but he didn't expect that he was sitting in a well and looking at the sky.
"My little friend, I was only in the dark realm at that time, and I didn't have the skills I have now."
The old Taoist laughed bitterly when he heard this, his face suddenly straightened, and he said: "My friend, Buddhism talks about cause and effect, and Taoism talks about fate. You and I are destined to be together today. I have a question for you, and I hope you can answer it truthfully!"
Seeing how serious Yuan Yangzi was, Ye Tian also restrained his smile and said seriously: "Master Yuanyang, please ask me, but Ye Tian will never dare to hide anything he knows!"
"Okay, let's ask the old man!"
After hearing Ye Tian's words, Yuan Yangzi flipped his one arm, and on the table which was empty except for a tea bowl, two objects suddenly appeared.
"Excuse me, where did these two things, little friend, come from?!" After taking out these two things, Yuan Yangzi stared at Ye Tian's eyes closely, as if to tell whether he was lying.
"You... why did you take something from me?"
After seeing these two things, Ye Tian's expression changed and he reached out to touch his arms. However, the compass and "Da Qi Tong Bao" were gone, leaving only Wuhen buckled around his waist.
"Little friend, I didn't mean it, but I saw it when I was healing you."
Yuan Yangzi shook his head and said seriously: "These two things have a great connection with me. I hope I can tell you the truth. Yuanyang is very grateful!"
Ye Tian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said almost to himself: "How come something from my sect has something to do with you?"
"Master?!" After hearing Ye Tian's words, the old Taoist's eyes widened.
"Origin?!" After repeating the old Taoist words, Ye Tian also felt something in his heart.
"You...your lay family name is Gou, Mingxin family?!"
"You...your master is Li Shanyuan?!"
Ye Tian and Yuan Yangzi both shouted and asked at the same time, with incredible expressions on their faces.
Fortunately for Yuan Yangzi, after seeing the master's compass and the "Da Qi Tong Bao" that his master often played with, he already had some guesses in his mind.
But Ye Tian was different. He never expected that he would see his senior brother who had been missing for decades on Foguang Mountain. It was as if he was in a dream.
Ye Tian murmured: "Big... senior brother?"
"Are you my master's disciple?"
At this time, Yuan Yangzi was able to confirm Ye Tian's identity. He fished his right hand around his waist, took out a jade pendant, and said: "This is the magic weapon my master gave me when he left in 1949. It can prove my identity."
!”
"Brother!"
Ye Tian took two steps back and bowed before bowing. He knew that his master had several jade-decorated magic weapons in his early years and gave them to his senior brother Gou Xinjia and his second senior brother Li Shanyuan respectively.
"Ye...your name is Ye Tian, right?" Gou Xinjia asked with a trembling voice: "Master...master, is he still...still there?"
Gou Xinjia has studied with Li Shanyuan since childhood, and the relationship between master and apprentice is no less than that between father and son. Although it has been nearly fifty years since he left the mainland, Gou Xinjia thinks about the old Taoist's voice and smile all the time.
Gou Xinjia also understood that if the old Taoist really lived to this day, he would probably be over 130 years old, but there was still a little hope in his heart, hoping to learn from Ye Tian that the master was still alive.
!
Ye Tian shook his head sadly and said in a sad tone: "Elder brother, master, he became an immortal three years ago!"
Although he was mentally prepared, Gou Xinjia's expression changed drastically, he staggered back two steps and sat down on the chair behind him.
"Brother, he passed away peacefully!"
Ye Tian took a step forward to support Gou Xinjia. When he grabbed the empty sleeve of his left arm, he couldn't help showing a stern look in his eyes and asked: "Brother, who did this on your left arm?"
