Hearing this, Liang Shenglou looked up, his eyes gradually becoming clearer, but then he looked frantically at his whole body, and then he was stagnant on the spot. After a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "It seems that you, Taoist priest, are really serious."
A land immortal with magic power, I thought you were some senior who lives in seclusion."
Shi Xuan said calmly: "Pindao is far from being called an immortal, he just has some subtle Taoist methods. Mr. Liang, please answer Pindao's question first."
"If Taoist Master agrees to help me, I am willing to tell you everything I know." Liang Shenglou thought for a moment and looked at Shi Xuan with burning eyes.
"Ha, Mr. Liang, do you think you have the qualifications to bargain? I just don't want to use magic because it is troublesome." Shi Xuan said with a smile.
Liang Shenglou raised his neck slightly and said stubbornly: "Then please ask the Taoist Master to take action."
Shi Xuan shook his head, took the Yu step, recited the incantation, and then pointed at Liang Shenglou from a distance, and two rays of light shot out from his eyes, falling just on his head. Liang Shenglou's eyes began to be in a trance, and then he lost his mind.
Looking at Shi Xuan blankly, this enchantment technique has an extra good effect on such souls without physical protection.
Shi Xuan slowly asked: "Tell me, did you gain anything else when you obtained the "Book of Immortality"?"
Liang Shenglou replied word for word: "There is also a letter left by a Sanren in Guangyang."
"What was written in the letter?"
"The letter states that it is difficult to get started with the "Book of Immortality". Later, people must practice the following qi diagrams. This is the real value of the "Book of Immortality". Then it is mentioned that it feels like an opportunity to break through the physical barrier and break through the void.
It is about to come, so I will find a secluded place to break through. No matter whether I succeed or not, I will not return to the world again, so I leave behind the "Book of Immortality" and do not want it to be lost. Finally, I leave a verse: "Be brave and diligent for thirty years."
Let's go to Lingtai to find Guanshan.'"
Shi Xuan asked again and again several times, and only gave up after seeing that nothing was missing. It seemed that Guangyang Sanren basically didn't understand what would happen after ascension. However, Shi Xuan was not too disappointed, after all, he had a complete plan.
, Guangyang Sanren got the news here as an unexpected surprise, but not getting it is normal.
After Shi Xuan withdrew the spell, Liang Shenglou slowly woke up again. He saw Shi Xuan standing calmly in front of him. Thinking of the dizzy incident just now, he said in a trembling voice: "What spell did you use on me?"
"Haha, it's just a little ecstasy."
"Okay, okay, okay." Liang Shenglou said in despair, as if he were mourning for his heir.
Shi Xuan recited a spell silently, waved his hand to disperse the black smoke, and said to Liang Shenglou: "Okay, now that I know what I want to know, Mr. Liang, please do as you please. I'll take my leave now."
Liang Shenglou rushed over, then knelt on the ground and kowtowed his head. This did not have a very substantial feeling for the soul, but more showed an attitude. He said in a hoarse voice: "Please Taoist priest, please give me some advice."
Revenge! Ask the Taoist priest to avenge the villain!"
Shi Xuan looked at him and said: "I am busy with many things and I still have to practice. I dare not agree to your matter."
Liang Shenglou continued to kowtow to ask for permission, but Shi Xuandu firmly refused.
Seeing that Shi Xuan's heart was as solid as stone, Liang Shenglou shouted loudly: "Didn't I say that you cultivators are kind to others and do justice for God? Aren't you afraid of being punished by God?!"
Shi Xuan sneered and said: "No one stipulates that I must help you. I help you as a good deed, and not helping you is my duty. I have a clear conscience. There is no need to scare me with divine punishment. If you want revenge, you should find the secret by yourself."
, say goodbye!"
"Taoist Master..." Seeing Shi Xuan drifting away, Liang Shenglou's soul called a few times in the dark and damp corner before he said to himself in despair: "Why? Why..."
After Shi Xuan left the mountain forest, he rushed towards the official road. What happened after Liang Shenglou depends on God's will. If he can find the place of Yin Qi in time and has a strong obsession, he may not have no chance of revenge in the future.
If he is unlucky and disappears, that is his own business. In short, no matter what happens in the future, it has nothing to do with Shi Xuan.
At noon in early August, the sun was scorching and there were no clouds in the sky. Although Chuzhou City was the capital of the state, it was a famously hot place by the river. At this time, there were only a few people walking on the official road, and most of them looked weak.
There are no longer crowds of people and busy traffic in the early morning and evening.
The officers and soldiers guarding the city had already put on their bamboo hats, and then shrank as much as possible into the shadow of the city gate, cursing secretly in their hearts: You son of a bitch captain, didn't you just win a few handfuls of money from him, so you arranged for me to guard the city gate at noon?
, there is no oil or water to say, I’m afraid I have to spend a fortune on soup and medicine, I’m going to be roasted to death!
At this time, he saw a group of people walking on the official road from a distance. They looked blurry under the sunlight. When he got closer, he found that they were pretending to be young people. They had ordinary faces and calm demeanors, but they had an extraordinary aura.
Fengzi. The officers and soldiers guarding the city originally planned to go up and make a big deal, at least to get back the money for today's herbal tea. However, seeing how popular this young man was, they hesitated. After all, guarding the city gate needs to deal with so many people every day.
Those who do not have enough eyesight offend those who should not be offended, and end up miserable. The rest are naturally those whose eyesight and experience are considered to be the best among ordinary people.
After hesitating in their hearts for a long time, when this man came closer, the city defenders made up their minds and gave themselves a hard squeeze. Although they were not sure that he was a person of extraordinary origin, they were careful not to make any big mistake. They hurriedly stepped forward to say hello diligently, and only accepted
The Taoist was allowed to enter the city for two copper coins.
When Shi Xuan entered the city of Chuzhou, he saw that the streets were wide and flat, with wine shops, inns, and various shops on both sides. Many sycamore trees were planted on the roadside, forming shade to escape the heat. Although the weather was hot, there were not many pedestrians on the road.
There are many, but with this kind of weather, in Shi Xuan's opinion, among the cities he has traveled through, only Yangzhou Prefecture is better than it, and the rest are much worse. Of course, the major cities in the previous life are not included in the comparison.
After leaving the ruined temple, Shi Xuan walked and walked, and then took a boat upstream. It took him nearly two months to reach the edge of Chuzhou. Although it took a lot of time, it was more comfortable than anything else.
After getting off the boat in Hanshui City, Shi Xuan spent another ten days walking to Chuzhou City, mainly to visit a famous Taoist temple between the two cities. Unfortunately, they were all deceptive people, so they could only play some tricks.
Now that he has arrived in Chuzhou City, Shi Xuan plans to rest for a few days and adjust his body and mind to the best before setting off for Tongxuan Mountain, fifty miles northwest of the city.
After taking a look around, Shi Xuan chose a "Yunlai Inn". Because it has a quiet environment and a single courtyard for rent, it is really an excellent choice for a practicing person like Shi Xuan.
"Sir, please come with me. Room No. 1 is in front of you." The waiter of the inn led the way. He was short, thin but smart.
Shi Xuan nodded and laughed a little in his heart. He never thought that I would have the opportunity to stay in Room No. 1. After entering the backyard of the inn, I came to a secluded small courtyard with a plaque on it that read "Lotus Fragrance"
"Garden". The waiter pointed to the courtyard and said: "Sir, this is our Tianzi No. 1 room. There are no other courtyards around. It is quite quiet. There is also a pond in the courtyard full of lotus. Every summer
There is a refreshing fragrance.”
While they were talking, Shi Xuan and Xiao Er had already entered the yard. Sure enough, there was a medium-sized pond on the left side of the yard. Lotus flowers were blooming all over the water. It was a hot day, the sun was scorching, there were no people, and the cicadas were chirping. Other plants around were lazily.
Even though I was listless, I felt extremely relaxed and happy when I smelled the fragrance.
After Shi Xuan sent away the waiter, he returned to the yard, under the big tree, smelling the fragrance of lotus flowers, closing his eyes and resting.
In the next few days, during the day, Shi Xuan shuttled through Chuzhou City, on the one hand to collect information for his trip to Tongxuan Mountain in a few days, and on the other hand, to taste the various delicacies of Chuzhou City, such as river fish and steamed crabs.
Etc. In the evening, Shi Xuan practiced boxing first, then visualized and strengthened the soul, adjusted his breath and moved his qi, without missing any of his practice lessons.
In the evening of that day, Shi Xuan slowly walked back to the inn while reminiscing about the fresh green onion smell of the river fish. As soon as he crossed the threshold and entered the lobby, he heard rapid footsteps behind him, and soon he
A thin scholar walked around Shi Xuan and walked towards the counter. Seeing this, the waiter hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Are you having a meal or staying in a hotel?"
The thin scholar hurriedly stopped and replied: "Hello, my dear friend, I will stay in the hotel next to Tongbu." Although the scholar is thin, he is not short, about seven feet tall, only slightly shorter than Shi Xuan. Although his face is pale, his appearance is good.
He is still quite handsome, but his eyes are a little dull.
When the waiter heard that he lived in Tongbu, some contempt suddenly appeared on his face, but after all, there were people coming and going in the lobby, and it was impossible for the scholar to look down on him, so he still said kindly: "Excuse me, may I ask your guest's name? Is there any way?
Where's the lead?"
The scholar didn't notice the waiter's contempt, and happily replied: "My surname is Ding, my given name is Mingde, and my surname is......I have not yet entered school, I have not yet reached twenty, and I have not...yet." Afterwards, there was some confusion.
Looking ashamed, he took out the road guide from his arms and handed it to the waiter.
The waiter took the guide and said, "Sir, please wait a moment. I will show the guide to the shopkeeper and then come over to guide you to Tongpu."
Ding Mingde nodded gratefully, and then stood aside and waited quietly, because the shopkeeper had to fill in his name, place of birth, etc. in the account book according to the directions for later auditing or the government checking the person, which took a long time, and Ding Mingde seemed like
I was very familiar with this process, so while waiting, I took out an oil paper bag from my arms and opened it to reveal a cold steamed bun.
Ding Mingde looked at the steamed buns with a hungry look on his face and said to himself in embarrassment: "This is the only one left. We have to go to Tongxuan Mountain tomorrow. Should we eat it tonight or not?"
Shi Xuan was about to walk through the lobby and into the backyard when he suddenly heard the scholar mention Tongxuan Mountain. He walked back a few steps and passed a man wearing a bamboo hat. He stood not far from the scholar and planned to listen to the scholar.
