The other elders also looked surprised, obviously a little surprised that the fifth elder was so excited.
"Okay, everyone has his own ambitions. Let's all say a few words. Since the Fifth Elder doesn't want to get involved, let's arrange other tasks for him.
Everyone has something to do, and at this juncture, no one can stay out of it."
The leader stood up and gave other instructions one by one before sending everyone away.
"Xiao Yu, the limelight in Maoshan is getting stronger and stronger. It seems that we must use strong methods to let Xiao Yu know who is the protagonist of the Taoist sect."
The main hall fell silent instantly, and the portrait of the superior Sanqing was still hanging high, as if overlooking the world, with his eyes full of compassion.
The construction of Maoshan is still in full swing. Lao Bai shuttles to the construction site every day to watch the progress of the mountain gate construction and invites some Taoists to visit.
The news that Maoshan was the founder of the sect began to spread in China, and people came in an endless stream to admire it. Some businessmen even donated money to build it.
The mountains around the Great Miko's Tomb have changed their appearance. Rows of houses are interspersed among them, with blue bricks, green tiles, and white walls and wooden buildings. They echo each other, like an ink painting, spreading out between the sky and the earth.
.
There is a path on each mountain, all paved with gravel, extending separately to reach a large archway.
There is a huge pool under the archway. In the center of the pool, a high platform is built with driftwood. On the high platform, there is a huge black and white Yin Yang fish, which looks like a living thing.
There is a mountain in the east. The mountain is no more than a thousand meters high, but it is extremely steep. There is a wooden tower on the top of the mountain, called the Demon Tower.
There is a mountain in the west, a thousand meters high, and a wooden tower on the top of the mountain, called the Ghost Tower.
The two towers of Demon and Ghost are each seven stories high. They have different terrains, but they can echo each other.
Under the two towers, there is a flat basin with rows of houses of different heights and neatly arranged on top of each other.
Behind the house, a dangerous peak reaches into the sky. The top of the mountain is flattened to form a huge circle, with a crooked-neck pine tree in the corner.
The setting sun in the sky is as red as fire, and thousands of sunset glows hang on the high platform. Yisong asks where the way of heaven is. It is difficult for people under the sky to understand!
Lao Bai stood on the high platform and looked at the buildings that were rising around him. He seemed to have become more than ten years younger in an instant.
Since the construction here was completed, Lao Bai has been coming here to sit for a while every day. This was built by him and Xiao Yu, so it can be said to be a name in history and show off!
"Taoist Master Bai, wouldn't it be tasteless to enjoy this great river and mountain alone?"
Just as Lao Bai was admiring alone, the setting clouds and solitary swans flying together, and the autumn water forming the same color as the sky, an old man's voice came over.
"Haha, Master Qiuye, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you?"
Lao Bai laughed loudly, turned around and walked to the path beside the pine tree, and bowed his hands to the monk below who was holding a Zen staff.
"I haven't seen you for a few months, and Maoshan's appearance has changed drastically. If it weren't for the poor monk's good arms and legs, it would be difficult for him to get on the stage of your enlightenment."
The monk looked very ordinary, just like a man who traveled around, but Lao Bai was extremely respectful to him.
"Master, for the sake of cultivation, let alone the two thousand-meter-high platform for enlightenment, even if you fall down the ladder to heaven, you can still go up. Come and sit down."
The two stood in the cold wind like old friends they hadn't seen for many years and started chatting.
At the bottom of Maoshan Mountain, an old man in linen clothes was walking with a cane, as if admiring the scenery, looking very uncomfortable.
But for such a big living person, walking on the path, the craftsmen passing by seemed not to notice him.
Even some Taoists wearing Taoist robes did not notice it.
"Maoshan is so impressive. How much does it cost on such a large scale? It seems that Xiao Yu has found a lot of backers."
The old man was walking and talking, his body was erratic, like smoke and fog, moving like a ghost, and he appeared thousands of meters away in an instant.
At this time, the sky was getting dark, and the craftsmen in the mountains had already finished their work and went back, while some painters were still burning the midnight oil.
The location of Maoshan Hall is exactly where the passage Xiao Yu and the others entered. As you walk down, you can see the magma and the coffin.
As soon as the coffin is discovered, all the secrets here will be exposed.
"Maoshan Gongde Hall, this is the last place. If there is no problem, it is not what the leader said."
The old man muttered to himself, and with a movement of his body, he entered the hall. He just looked around casually, but his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the walls and see clearly what was inside.
But the old man only walked half a circle, shook his head, and walked back to the backyard.
"Who are you, your Excellency? You came in secretly. Do you want to steal?"
Just when the old man walked to the rear door, Lao Bai's voice suddenly came out, and then countless white threads flew from the rear, winding towards the place where the old man was hiding.
White silk threads flew out, and a layer of frost instantly condensed in the surrounding air, shocking the old man.
The ice silk silk collided with the ground, and the originally paved floor tiles shattered and turned into pieces of ice.
But how can Lao Bai's cultivation level be compared with that old man? Lao Bai was able to discover the other man's existence before because of the monk's reminder, so he accidentally bumped into him.
"Don't be angry, fellow Taoist, I'm just passing through here."
The old man Mai's voice appeared in the hall, and then his body appeared soon after.
"I heard that Maoshan was opened, so I wanted to come here to have a look. I don't want to disturb others. Please don't be angry, this fellow Taoist."
The old man in Mai cupped his hands toward the yard behind him and explained with a smile.
"Amitabha, if you want to see it, fellow Taoist, why are you not being honest and upright, but using the art of invisibility? Is there any other purpose for coming here?"
"Creak..."
The door to the back of the yard opened, and Lao Bai and the monk Qiuye who came today walked out at the same time.
Several people looked at each other, but no one said anything, as if they were weighing the pros and cons.
"I, Maoshan Congli, welcome all Taoist friends to come, but you are so secretive, I don't know what you mean?"
As Lao Bai said this, he took out a waistband from his arms with the words "Exorcism" written on it.
"The Exorcist Alliance has issued an order to exorcise demons. Do you want to challenge the authority of the Exorcist Alliance and come to Maoshan to cause trouble?"
Lao Bai's voice gradually became colder. Without Xiao Yu, he gradually learned to take on some things by himself, knowing when to be kind and when not to be soft.
"Haha, misunderstanding. Don't take it off, fellow Taoists. I am a disciple of Panlong Mountain. I traveled here and saw that Maoshan Mountain was as powerful as a rainbow, so I wanted to come and have a look. I didn't want to disturb you two. I'm really sorry.
Don't be angry, I'll leave right now, leave right now."
Old man Mai naturally knew that if it was Lao Bai alone, he could kill the other party without anyone noticing, and then die without any evidence, and still find the secrets here.
But he couldn't see through the monk next to Lao Bai.
And although Buddhism and Taoism are both Taoism, there are still differences. Once you can't kill the other party, but are caught by the other party, it will be difficult to handle, so it is better to confess it honestly and avoid a vicious fight.
Lao Bai didn't speak, and the monk looked at him. This made old man Mai not know what to do, so he could only clasp his fists and leave.
