Chapter 35 Thirty-five Disguise
A light is like a bean.
The two of them didn't speak. Lin Bai only stared at Mu Zhen, and Mu Zhen was also looking at him.
After a long time, Mu Zhen sighed quietly and said: "I swear by the great truth. If anything is leaked, I will live without love and die without a burial place."
Lin Bai waited for a while before slowly nodding.
Being restricted by others, one cannot ask for too much.
"You just have too many eyes."
Mu Zhen smiled very gently, "Actually, you think too much. I don't even know what your secret is."
"Can only those who have their destiny enter the Tao? What is my destiny?" Lin Bai took the opportunity to ask.
"That's right." Mu Zhen nodded slightly and continued: "As for what your destiny is, I don't know. The world is so big and your destiny encompasses all things, who can know it all?"
She only knows the mist, not the stone plate. Lindbergh concluded.
"How long do you want to watch?" Lin Bai asked.
"It's time for tea." Mu Zhen said.
"Okay."
Lin Bai nodded, closed his eyes, and let his mind go.
When he opened his eyes again, the person had appeared on the stone plate.
"Get up!"
As Lin Bai spoke, the surrounding mist gathered, and long swords appeared in the air.
With another movement in his heart, the long sword disappeared and plum blossom piles appeared one after another.
Then it was quickly smoothed out and restored to its original state.
"She said that the opportunity for alchemy is here. If I don't reveal the true face of the stone plate, what if I change it to something else..."
Lin Bai thought about it and thought it was feasible.
"Give it a try."
Lin Bai silently recalled the Huaxi River, and soon the surrounding fog fell on the stone plate, forming a waterline with green grass on both sides.
The waterline slowly widens and becomes a stream, with green grass on both sides and undulating hills.
Lin Bai broke out in cold sweat on his forehead and felt a severe headache, as if pins and needles were pricking him.
In the past, the objects condensed in the stone plate were all standard, such as long swords, wooden stakes, and stone hammers, but this time, the natural scene was generated based on the memory in the mind, and it also slightly changed according to Lin Bai's mind.
"I thought my current control over the stone plate could not be maintained for too long..."
Lin Bai was thinking while suppressing his headache, and a small crack appeared in the surrounding fog.
First it was as wide as a finger, and then gradually became as wide as a fist.
Soon, a misty purple energy came in from the gap.
The purple energy, like a piece of silk, circled around here and finally stopped on the river.
"I can't hold it anymore." After three breaths, Lin Bai hurriedly spoke out.
The purple energy was unmoved and just walked along the stream. Then it looked at it carefully for a while, then circled for the last time and exited the same way.
Lin Bai also opened his eyes, and the candles seemed to be blown by the wind, trembling endlessly.
"Hiss..."
Lin Bai felt as if his brain was about to burst, blood was pouring all over his body, and his clothes were soaked in cold sweat in an instant.
"Stop." Mu Zhen flicked her fingers and tapped Lin Bai's forehead.
Lin Bai felt a cool feeling coming from the center of his eyebrows, and then his headache subsided, and the blood and energy in his body no longer surged.
With his mouth dry, Lin Bai picked up the teapot and drank the herbal tea in one gulp.
Wiping his mouth, Lin Bai stared at Mu Zhen.
"It won't work even after three breaths. You are a good man in vain." Mu Zhen said.
"I can't hold on for three breaths, but when was it not you who arrived first?" Lin Bai retorted.
"You only have a tough mouth." Mu Zhen mocked.
"As long as you can eat steamed buns every day," Lin Bai said.
Mu Zhenqing knew she couldn't defeat him, so she stopped talking and just rubbed the fine needle with her.
Lin Bai knew that she was thinking about something, so he didn't bother her.
After a long time, Lin Bai looked impatient and asked, "What did you see?" "Changhe," Mu Zhen replied.
A stream is just a stream, or a long river? This shows that she did not discover the secret of the stone plate.
Lin Bai looked approving and asked again: "What did you see from the long river?"
"In the old days, in the mountains and forests, entering Taoism, asking for elixirs, ancestors' wet dreams, making steamed buns, you..." Mu Zhen's tone was dull.
"Ancestor..." Lin Bai asked: "Who is the ancestor? How much stronger is he than you?"
"I have never seen the ancestor." Mu Zhen shook her head, "In front of the ancestor, I am not even as good as an ant, so how can I compare?"
Lin Bai remained silent. Her ancestor sounded extremely powerful, but why did she pay attention to me? Is it because of the stone plate?
But for now, her ancestor seems to have no ill intentions.
Moreover, the stream is just a mist, how could Sister Zhen see so many things?
"The reason why you were able to find me was because of the help of your ancestor?" Lin Bai came to his senses.
"You're not stupid either. Are you scared?" Mu Zhen smiled softly under the candlelight and continued: "Look at how you have been living these days. You are always on tenterhooks and intrigues. I feel sorry for you."
Lin Bai sighed helplessly and asked again: "Is there any idea about the alchemy theory?"
Mu Zhen nodded.
"What do you think?" Lin Bai asked.
"What you see may not be different from what I see, but the perception differs from person to person." Mu Zhen's words were confused.
However, Lin Bai was keenly aware that her mood was very high, and she felt relaxed, as if she had solved a problem that had troubled her for many years.
Co-author: Did she also realize the magic from the illusion I weaved?
Lin Bai felt that it was outrageous, and guessed that it might be some kind of influence exerted by Shipan.
"What is my destiny?" Lin Bai tried again.
"I don't know. Everyone's destiny is different and comes from different sources. It can be as small as a silver needle, or as huge as a mountain. Yours looks very ordinary, but there are also some unusual features. It should be the resting place of an ancient great power. Or it's the Land of Relics, or somewhere else. And being able to step into it is really magical, I can't tell." Mu Zhen didn't hide it this time.
Lin Bai pondered for a while and asked: "Are you...going to leave?"
"Let's find a place to break through first." Mu Zhen looked to the west, "It's too far away from home and I won't be able to go back for a while."
"How long does it take to break through?" Lin Bai asked curiously.
"I don't know, it could be as short as one or two years, or as long as seven or eight years." Mu Zhen said with a confident smile on her face, "Okay, no more questions."
"Then...shall I go?" Lin Bai did not stand up, but pointed at the night outside.
Mu Zhen turned her head and smiled and said: "It's so late, it's really troublesome to go home."
Lin Bai: "Yes."
In the early morning, the sunlight passed through the window and fell on Lin Bai's face.
Opening her eyes, Sister Zhen was sleeping soundly in her arms.
Lin Bai withdrew his hand and felt that his mind was clear. Not only was he not tired at all, but his whole body felt warm.
It's like taking a hot bath. My whole body felt relaxed, and my eyesight and ears seemed to be much stronger.
Slightly circulate the inner energy of Dantian, and feel more abundant.
Wuji Gong had only reached the fourth level not long ago, but Lin Bai felt that he was on the verge of a breakthrough again.
Moreover, the muscles, bones, and meridians are freely connected, and the internal force is constantly flowing.
It's like being reborn.
Lin Bai vaguely felt that practicing internal skills in the future would get twice the result with half the effort.
"Last night..."
Lin Bai recalled the absurdity of last night and was fed something by Mu Zhen in the process. I thought it was just for fun, but I didn't expect it to have another mystery.
"Is it some kind of strange elixir?"
"So, is this a reward for your hard work? I also want to ask about the method of entering the Tao..."
Lin Bai looked at the sleeping Mu Zhen silently, not knowing what to say.
He picked up the thin quilt and was about to cover her with it when Lin Bai took it back.
I simply fiddled with it again and then walked out the door.
