Seeing Yang Mu approaching, the old man in red hurriedly greeted him.
Yang Mu was prepared for this guy to take action at any time, but he didn't expect that the old man in red not only didn't take action, but instead bent down to apologize to him.
"Senior Yang, this junior came here specifically to apologize to you!" He looked sincere and guilty.
Seeing this scene, both Yang Mu and Duke Dracula at the rear were stunned.
Ruan Tang was relieved.
She felt that the old man was obviously a good person when he dealt with gangsters during the day, so she did not want any conflict between the old man and Yang Mu.
In Yang Mu's state of mind, it might be a bit exaggerated to say that Mount Tai collapsed without changing his expression, but he was no longer the little waiter, so being called a senior by an old man with wrinkles didn't bother him.
After all, whether they are domestic ancient warriors or foreign extraordinary ones, they are all respected by their strength.
Although he was surprised, he remained calm and looked carefully: "In the Alps, the guy who attacked the Nantianmen personnel was you?"
The old man said in fear: "I did take action, but I just wanted to find out what happened over there. I definitely didn't hurt anyone."
Yang Mu said: "Are you apologizing for this matter?"
The old man shook his head quickly: "I came to apologize because Brahma and his disciples caused a lot of trouble to Senior Yang.
And they will be on the other side of the Alps, and even the reason why they know the existence of the ‘Shen Nong Cauldron’ is because of me! Therefore, I cannot escape the blame for this matter.”
Yang Mu said: "Did you tell them where the Shennong Cauldron is?"
"Yes!" The old man admitted simply.
Yang Mu's eyes lit up: "Then how did you know that the Shennong Cauldron would be in that place?"
"This started a few years ago."
The old man's eyes showed a hint of reminiscence, and he spoke slowly.
"At that time, I accidentally found a corpse on a desert island in the Pacific. Later, I found a brief autobiography, a palm technique, and records about the Shennong Ding on the corpse.
The senior discovered the Shennong Cauldron by chance, but was unable to take the Shennong Cauldron away. He was afraid that the treasure would be covered in dust, so he left a record so that others could take the Shennong Cauldron away and put it to good use!"
Yang Mu's heart moved and he asked: "What is his identity?"
The old man said: "According to the description in that autobiography, he claims to be a cultivator!"
Yang Mu was shocked. His first thought was that he was a little worried. Could that corpse be his mysterious master who had always been masked?
Although he had never met the mysterious master, in his imagination, he was absolutely powerful as he had never seen before, and he would never believe that he would die on a desert island.
If it is not his master, but other cultivators, then...
Yang Mu looked expectantly and raised his voice a bit: "Did he say where he was from in his autobiography?"
He guessed that the dead cultivator would not be his master, but it was very likely that he came from the same place as his master.
The old man said: "Penglai Island!"
"Penglai Island?"
Yang Mu frowned, feeling that this name seemed familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.
Then I remembered that Penglai Island is an overseas fairy mountain in Chinese myths and legends.
Not only are there relevant records in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", but there are also many legends in various dynasties in Chinese history.
However, China has a long history and complex myths. There are countless legends like Penglai Island. No modern person would take them seriously and would only treat them as bizarre stories.
But now, when you hear the words "Penglai Island" from the old man's mouth, the meaning is completely different.
"Is there really Penglai Island in this world? Many legends about Penglai Island are evolved from real stories? Master, he is from Penglai Island? It is not a place where gods live, but a place where cultivators live
?”
In the blink of an eye, countless questions popped up in Yang Mu's mind, and he desperately wanted to know the answers.
To him, this is simply a more important discovery than the "Shen Nong Cauldron"!
He never thought that he, or his master, would be the only two cultivators in the world, but he never imagined that there was a place in the world where a large number of cultivators gathered!
If there really is such a place, I must go and see it no matter what.
It is not that he has never been to places far away from the world, such as Kowloon Market.
But Kowloon Market and Penglai Island are obviously not on the same level.
In the final analysis, the former is the "paradise" created by his master alone, but the latter may be the "overseas fairyland" created by his master!
Yang Mu asked eagerly: "Where is Penglai Island?"
The old man was stunned for a moment, showed a bit of disappointment, shook his head and said: "In his autobiography, he wrote that he came from Penglai Island, and after accidentally coming out, he could never go back.
As for the specific location, there is no record! Over the years, the juniors have spent a lot of effort looking for it, but they have never found any trace of Penglai Island.
There is even some suspicion that Penglai Island may have sunk long ago, and there may be no other cultivators in the world. To be honest, the junior thought that the senior was also from Penglai Island, but now it seems that he was mistaken.
But it should be correct that the senior is a cultivator? If he were not a cultivator, it would be impossible to take the Shennong Cauldron away directly."
"Yes, I am indeed a cultivator."
Yang Mu nodded and said in his heart that although he was a cultivator, he did not rely on his own ability to take away the "Shen Nong Cauldron".
The old man immediately said: "Senior is a cultivator, but I don't know where Penglai Island is? If you guessed correctly, my master should be from Penglai Island? Or, besides Penglai Island, are there other places where cultivators can come out?
This kind of person?"
Yang Mu understood something and said, "I'm afraid you're not here to apologize to me, but you want to find out more about cultivators from me, right?"
The old man once again made a surprising move.
I saw that he did not deny it, and he knelt down with a thud:
"In front of the seniors, the juniors dare not hide anything. The juniors are extremely fascinated by becoming a cultivator and hope to become the disciples of the seniors!"
Yang Mu now completely understood.
The other party came all the way to find me, not for the Shennong Ding, not to avenge the master and disciples of the Brahma Sect, and not to apologize at all, but to use him to become a cultivator!
"I have no intention of accepting a disciple. Normally, in this situation, I would refuse without thinking. However, you did a great thing at my sister's school today, so I
It’s not like I can’t teach you something!”
Yang Mu touched his chin, and when he saw the old man's happy expression, he said, "Don't be too happy. At most, I will give you a technique and let you try it yourself.
As for whether you can successfully get started and become a cultivator, it all depends on your own understanding! If you can't even get started on your own, then it's impossible for me to accept you as my disciple."
The old man's face showed joy: "Senior is willing to teach a skill, and I am satisfied! As for whether I can join my disciple, I will completely follow my arrangement."
Next, Yang Mu continued to ask.
From the old man's mouth, we further learned that the cultivator left a brief autobiography in the hope that whoever found his body would hand over his ashes to other cultivators in the future.
The purpose is to hope that other cultivators can take him back to his roots and return to Penglai Island.
Having said this, the old man took out the urn that had been prepared long ago and handed it to Yang Mu. It contained the ashes of the cultivator.
Yang Mu took the urn and said: "It seems that he left behind a palm technique and information about the Shennong Cauldron. In fact, he wanted to be a favor to you and let you hand over the bones for him. He only left
For the next palm technique, there are no techniques left behind or anything like that?"
The old man smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Indeed not!"
If so, there would be no need for him to come to Yang Mu.
Yang Mu said: "In the record about the Shennong Cauldron, is it written down, and what are the specific methods to restore the Shennong Cauldron to its original appearance? Also, what are the specific abilities of the Shennong Cauldron?"
The old man looked surprised: "Recovery? Senior means that the Shennong Cauldron is now in a damaged state?"
As he said that, he shook his head and said: "The location of the Shennong Cauldron was written in that record. Apart from that, there is no other information."
Yang Mu asked a few more questions, and then asked Ruan Tang to go to the room to get pen and paper, copy a copy of the exercise called "Tongtian Xuan Gong", and give it to the old man.
"If you can cultivate the unique Qi of a cultivator in your body, then you can come to me immediately. I will consider officially accepting you as a disciple!" Yang Mu said.
The old man looked delighted, thanked him repeatedly, turned around and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
"You two go inside first, I need to make a call if I need something."
Yang Mu said something to Duke Dracula and Ruan Tang, then turned and left.
He came to the corner of the yard and dialed Long Qi's number.
He told Long Qi everything that happened today.
Long Qi was shocked when she heard that the man in red came to Yang Mu. When Yang Mu said that the man came to become a disciple, he was even more surprised.
She pondered for a few seconds and said: "To put it simply, because of the reason why he took action against the gangsters this morning, you have a good impression of him, and you believe what he said, so although you are not interested in accepting a disciple, you still give him a favor."
Did you teach him a skill?"
"ha?"
But Yang Mu seemed to have heard a big joke, the corners of his mouth curled up, and his eyes were cold:
"You are wrong. Not only do I have no favorable impression of this person, but I also don't believe anything he says! Why do you take it for granted that what I gave him is really a cultivation method?"
Long Qi on the other side was stunned!
Regarding the attack at the school gate that occurred this morning, Nantianmen has conducted corresponding investigations and found something wrong.
Therefore, she felt that the old man might not be trustworthy, and originally wanted to laugh at Yang Mu for being too naive.
Now I realize that it seems that it is not Yang Mu who is innocent, but herself!
