Wuchengjue's face was still shrouded by thousands of years of icebergs, and he casually glanced at Li Xiaobai and said.
"Well, it's out."
Li Xiaobai nodded.
"What were you talking about inside just now?"
"Nothing, just chat."
"Senior, did you mention me?"
Li Xiaobai thought for a while and said: "I mentioned it, saying that your cultivation is more advanced. I guess you have experienced a lot of hardships."
Seemingly, he saw a smile appear on Wu Chengjue's face, and it disappeared in an instant.
"Come on, follow me to the helm. The helmsman has something to say."
After Wu Chengjue said that, he took one step and disappeared on the second peak.
Li Xiaobai scratched his head. After all, the old beggar was not the real Xiaolao Emperor. Even if the real Xiaolao Emperor came, he would have already forgotten the younger monks he had given guidance to. How could he mention her? He was doing this with good intentions.
Lies, well, are definitely not meant to increase your favorability so that the other party can attack you in the future. As the leader of the second peak, he is full of righteousness and has a dignified appearance, and his behavior will never be so purposeful.
Summoning the golden chariot, it turned into a streak of light and followed Wucheng Jue as he floated away.
A quarter of an hour later.
The two of them came to the familiar hilltop, which is where the chief helm's secret realm is located. It was exactly the same as the last time they came here. There were two black-robed monks on the top of the hill, sitting on the ground boredly admiring a picture scroll.
This doorman's job is quite leisurely. Many members of the law enforcement team may not come back even once every six months. There are no guests coming here to visit the law enforcement team on weekdays. In addition, the chief helmsman is hidden in a small world. If they hadn't opened the small world,
In the world, outsiders cannot find this place, so this is a quite leisurely job.
After seeing the faces of Wucheng Jue and Li Xiaobai clearly, the two law enforcement team monks immediately stood up and said respectfully: "I have met the deputy helmsman!"
"According to the order of the helmsman, the two of us will go back to the main helm and quickly open the small secret realm."
Wucheng Jue nodded slightly and said calmly.
"yes!"
The two monks did not dare to delay. They made seals with their hands and started to use their skills. On the top of the mountain, a huge whirlpool of immortal power slowly rose up and floated in the void to form a door. The world at the door was full of birdsong, fragrance of flowers, and fragrant grass.
Luqi, it’s still the familiar scenery from before.
"Let's go!"
Wuchengjue took the lead and ducked into it.
Li Xiaobai followed closely and entered this paradise.
The world inside the door is completely different from what you see from outside. Only when you really step into it do you realize that the green water and green mountains are no longer there, replaced by withered yellow ground and a bleak autumn wind.
The thatched house is located, and you can faintly see that its top is covered with a layer of white frost, giving off a desolate and desolate chill. Compared with the previous two times, it is an earth-shaking change.
Wucheng never went directly to the thatched cottage where the helmsman was, but took Li Xiaobai to the main hall where he received the mission.
An old man was busy among them, sorting out information.
"Tell him, I have something else to do, so go ahead and say goodbye!"
Wu Chengjue threw Li Xiaobai down, then turned around and left without any hesitation.
Li Xiaobai was left alone and suddenly speechless. This woman came and went just as she said, without any warning. Fortunately, he was an acquaintance with the deacon in the hall.
"I, Edward, have met Mr. Li!"
"After not seeing you for many days, Mr. Li has become even more majestic and heroic."
When the old man saw Li Xiaobai's figure, his face was suddenly filled with smiles. The old man had not changed at all. He still had a round belly, fair hair and a childish face, and his body was slightly fatter.
"This junior has met Senior Ai, so you are polite!"
Li Xiaobai cupped his fists and cupped his hands, saying respectfully.
In his opinion, the entire law enforcement team was shrouded in weirdness. Except for Wu Chengjue, everyone else looked more or less weird and unusual. Even the two gatekeepers just now looked a little gloomy.
, coupled with the desolate and desolate environment in this little secret at the moment, it is difficult not to arouse alarm.
"Are you here because of the theft of the Jianzong children?"
Edward asked.
"Yes, senior, did you know about it before? I hope you can tell me something."
Li Xiaobai said seriously.
"Haha, the water is too deep to control this matter, and I don't know much about it. The helmsman has a clever plan, I will take you there!"
Edward took out a letter from a pile of files and handed it to Li Xiaobai. On it he wrote a few big words: "Come to the chief helm and see me."
This was Bei Chenfeng's handiwork. He was supposed to send this letter to Jian Zong to invite him to come, but he didn't expect that he would act so quickly. The person had already arrived before the letter was sent, which invisibly made this Confucian and Taoist sage
Less of a pretense.
An old man and a young man walked out of the main hall and headed towards a remote corner in the secret realm, where Bei Chenfeng lived.
"It seems different from what I saw last time?"
The leaves on the ground were fallen and yellow, Li Xiaobai looked at Edward and asked.
After walking for a while in the secret realm, the weird feeling became even stronger. The last time I came here, the secret realm was still full of vitality. Monks could be seen sitting cross-legged and meditating on the roadside, and some even sat and talked about Taoism. But today, there was nothing but fallen leaves on the streets.
Others, not even a single person was seen.
"Normally, the changes in the four seasons in the secret realm are closely related to the mood of the helmsman. Last time, the helmsman was in a good mood, so the state in the secret realm was also beautiful with clear mountains and clear water, birds singing and flowers fragrant. This time, the leaves were yellow and fallen, and the helmsman's mood was a little depressed. It should be
Remembering the past and reminiscing about old friends."
Edward explained with a slight smile.
"However, the helmsman has already reached the realm of heaven and man. It is taboo for us to speculate in private. We dare not draw rash conclusions, let alone speculate at will."
Finally, Edward gave another warning.
"I understand."
Li Xiaobai nodded. This secret realm is really hypocritical. The changes of the seasons actually depend on Bei Chenfeng's mood. However, it is very intuitive to feel the inner world of this great master. At this moment, the other party is not very good at nature, and he happened to be summoned at this time.
, you need to pay more attention.
His fingers trembled slightly, and a Thousand Miles Direct Travel Talisman appeared silently in his hand. Once he saw that the situation was not going well, he would immediately run away.
After a few breaths, the two came to a thatched cottage. The doors and windows were closed tightly, making it airtight.
Edward knocked on the door: "Master, we have been brought here."
"Let him come in and talk."
A low, hoarse voice came from inside the door, it was Beichenfeng's voice.
"Sir, please!"
With a smile on his face and full of courtesy, Edward opened the door and made a gesture of invitation to Li Xiaobai. After he entered, he closed the door and the room was illuminated by sunlight for a moment before falling into darkness again.
Inside the house, a figure was sitting cross-legged in meditation, with his back to the door, facing the wall motionless, and his lineup could not be seen.
Li Xiaobai cupped his fists and raised his hands: "Junior Li Xiaobai, I have met my senior. Recently, children of the Sword Sect have been stolen. Everyone in the sect is very worried. I heard that my senior has some clues here, so this junior is here to bother me. Please don't blame me, senior."
