"You idiot, you can't even handle this little thing!"
Master Baiyun was so angry that he slapped a Jingle Palace disciple who was kneeling on the ground and knocked him to the ground. Guo Song returned to Kongtong Mountain, but disappeared without a trace in Jingle Palace. He was the same as Master Mu back then.
Same.
Next to him, Master Baiju quickly stepped forward to persuade: "Behind Jingle Palace is the Wanzhang Canyon. Maybe Guo Song left through the side door. It's normal for this little Taoist priest not to know. As long as we know that Guo Song is back, that's enough."
.”
"Hmph! Then how do I explain it to Master?"
Master Bai Ju waved his hand and asked his apprentice to take the disciples from Jingle Palace down.
He then said to Master Baiyun: "Uncle Master, he was able to predict that Guo Song was back. He is like a god. I think that since Guo Song is back, he will not go far. He must be in Kongtong Mountain. We will send more disciples to look for him."
That’s it.”
"What should we do now?"
"Why don't senior brother go up there again? I think since senior uncle can count on Guo Song's return, he must know where to find him."
Master Baiyun gave a helpless smile, "What you said is a step too late. Grandmaster and Master are in seclusion. I don't know when I will be able to come out. Usually it's at least a few months. But this time, Grandmaster is too exhausted. I guess it will take a while."
Year."
Master Bai Ju was also dumbfounded. After a while, he could only sigh and said: "Then look for him! As long as Guo Song is in Kongtong Mountain, we will find him sooner or later."
.........
Guo Song squatted on a big tree under the cliff of Cuiping Peak. He didn't climb up the cliff until night fell.
His thick iron sword was left in Jingle Palace, and he only had his bow and arrows and the iron wood sword left by his master. He thought for a whole day, but he couldn't figure out why the secret of Lingji Cave was leaked, and how could Zixiao Tiangong know about Lingji Cave?
The Silent Cave is related to the Master.
Guo Song suspected that the three heavenly masters who had never seen the dragon were causing trouble. According to Zhang Mingchun, it seemed that the time for the three heavenly masters was coming soon. Of course, Zixiao Temple was anxious and wanted to place the three heavenly masters in Lingji.
Go into the cave.
But Guo Song knew very well that even if they went in, they would turn into three white bones and be useless. How could it be so easy to practice Taoism?
However, he could also understand that the three heavenly masters also knew that they had too much enjoyment and could not become immortals, so they pinned their hopes on Lingji Cave.
Although Lingji Cave is essentially a Taoist cemetery, it is the resting place for those who are truly devoted to Taoism. The three heavenly masters are not worthy to be immortalized in it.
Guo Song's speed became faster and faster, and soon he climbed to the eagle's nest on the cliff. Guo Song entered the eagle's nest and was startled to see a roll of rope inside.
Someone has been here, and the bones of Xiaoying's mother have been cleaned away. There is only this roll of rope, and there is a stone wall inside. The master restored it, and it was impossible to tell that it was a fake stone wall.
Of course Guo Song could guess that Zixiao Tiangong must have combed Cuiping Peak as carefully as a comb, or several times. They had already found the eagle's nest, but did not find that the stone wall was fake, so they missed Lingji Cave.
The key is that there is a cave on the lower left side of Cuiping Peak, leading to the back mountain. Their focus must be on the cave, so the Eagle's Nest is just a foothold.
In fact, if Guo Song hadn't discovered that there was half a sword on the stone wall, he would never have imagined that it turned out to be a fake stone wall.
Guo Song climbed in and pushed the stone wall hard. The stone wall moved slowly and turned out to be a large round stone. Where did the master find it?
Guo Song immediately realized that something was wrong. The large boulder moved over and actually slipped into a stone crevice. This should have been there before. The Taoist priest in front did not notice it, so he randomly used some stone slabs to cover the entrance of the cave. As a result, the master
I found this pie-like round stone.
This cave entrance should have a special function, and it was not drilled through by the so-called Taoist priests.
He pushed the boulder open a crack and quickly got in. The moonlight came in from the hole, and he could vaguely see the outline of the hole.
"Master! Master!" Guo Song shouted several times, but there was no response.
He touched the rope in front of the stone niche. In fact, he didn't need a rope. The stone wall was very rough and he could climb it with his bare hands.
The grotto that the master dug was still the same as before. There was a hammer and chisel on the ground, but there was a letter pressed under the hammer.
Guo Song flicked a fire seal, unfolded the letter and read it carefully.
'Lao Wu, by the time you read this letter, Master should have been incarnate for three years...'
Guo Song's nose suddenly became sore, and tears suddenly burst out of his eyes. Master has been incarnate for three years?
He raised his head and cried for a moment, forced himself to calm down, suppressed the grief in his heart, and continued to read the letter.
'Master was introduced to Taoism by you at Xiutu Lake, and he had a profound enlightenment. He understood that Taoism is natural and exists everywhere. Master knew that his end was approaching. Unfortunately, the spiritual cave was not completed. I can only ask you to continue to help Master dig it. Master
Just above your head, I will live in a friend's cave..."
Guo Song felt a pain in his hand, and the Huozhezi had burned his hand. He quickly threw away the remaining Huozhezi, and his vision went dark.
The master was right above his head. He stopped reading the letter. He stuffed the letter into his arms and climbed up the stone wall. One foot above him, there was indeed a grotto. The grotto was relatively large. Guo Song fired the second one.
Huo Zhezi saw a white skeleton leaning on the corner of the grotto, and an old Taoist priest sitting cross-legged in the middle of the grotto. Who was his master if not him?
"Master!"
Guo Song climbed in and shook his master. He suddenly felt despair in his heart. He already felt that his master had become immortal.
I saw the master's face was lifelike, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was emerging from a kind of enlightenment.
It must have been three years since he became immortal. The Taoist robes on his master were already a bit decayed, but his body was incorruptible and his muscles were as hard as stone. Guo Song suddenly felt sad and fell down in front of his master and cried loudly.
Mu Zhenren clearly understood the truth, but Guo Song once again lost his closest relatives and loved ones. How could he not be sad and grieved?
After crying for an unknown amount of time, Guo Song wiped away his tears, kowtowed three times to his master's body, raised his hands and swore: "I will fulfill my master's last wish and build a spiritual cave. Even if it takes my whole life, I will not hesitate."
"
From then on, Guo Song lived in Lingji Cave, digging caves for his master during the day, and going out to forage for food and practice martial arts at night. There is no time in the mountains, and time flies by.
But Mu Zhenren obviously did not intend to let his apprentice spend too much time. A year later, Mu Zhenren's spiritual cave was gradually completed.
.........
During this year, the two heavenly masters were unable to leave. After several months of fruitless searches by Zixiao Temple, they gradually stopped searching.
This morning, Master Baiyun was discussing with several junior brothers about preparations for the new martial arts tournament.
A disciple suddenly ran over in a panic and said urgently: "Master, the two heavenly masters have come out of seclusion!"
Master Baiyun stood up and was so shocked that his heart almost burst. The two heavenly masters had come out of seclusion, but what should he do if he couldn't find Guo Song's whereabouts?
Master Bai Ju quickly said: "Senior brother, maybe our uncle can test another hexagram."
Master Baiyun nodded, "You go with me!"
The two left the room and walked quickly towards the Heavenly Palace, and soon came to the retreat place of the two Heavenly Masters.
The so-called retreat is actually to practice the art of fasting and recharge, which can gradually restore the body's functions. During this period, they cannot be disturbed, but there will be a little Taoist boy who will feed them water, flax powder and Fuling pills regularly until they
Wake up slowly by yourself.
But on the other hand, Bigu Technique is very harmful to the body. Sometimes the energy is slightly restored, but the body functions are completely destroyed, which is counterproductive.
The three heavenly masters are all over eighty years old, and their lives have reached their limit.
Master Baiyun and Master Baiju knelt down and kowtowed outside, "Baiyun, Baiju pay homage to master and uncle!"
After a while, Master Li Xuande asked: "Can you find the Lingji Cave?"
"The disciple is incompetent. He has tried his best, but still achieved nothing."
"We asked you to find Guo Song!"
"He came back, but then disappeared. It's been a whole year."
Master Li Xuande did not blame his disciple this time. It was not that he did not want to scold him, but that his time was approaching and he could no longer scold him.
He glanced at his senior brother and saw that his eyes were closed and his lips were trembling, as if he was about to say something.
He quickly looked at the little Taoist boy. The little Taoist boy understood and put his ear to Master Ge Yuntian's mouth. He heard a word.
At this time, Tianshi Ge Yun breathed out softly, and there was no more breath.
The little Taoist boy touched his nose and burst into tears, "The Heavenly Master has become immortal!"
Master Baiyun and Master Baiju were shocked and hurriedly climbed into the room and cried. However, they saw Master Li Xuande extremely angry and hit the Taoist boy with his jade Ruyi.
"Beast, what did senior brother say?"
Only then did the Taoist boy realize that he had almost made a big mistake. He cried and kowtowed: "My disciple only heard one word, eagle."
Heavenly Master Li Xuande exclaimed, "Ah!" The last hexagram of the senior brother was "Flying Dragon in the Sky", which clearly refers to the eagle!
