Chapter 274 opens
Meeting old friends in a foreign country is one of the joys of life.
The Guanhe Tower is high, and the wild wind in the mountains is blowing, bringing the air of water waves.
There is no one else here, the four of them are sitting across from each other. Among them, Mu Zhen has the highest level, already at the fourth level of the Golden Elixir. Lin Baifang has stepped into the Golden Elixir, and Qu and Huang have only built the foundation. But after all, they are old acquaintances and do not judge their level based on their realm.
"This fellow Taoist is the descendant of Senior Wood Demon, and his name is Mu Zhen." Lin Bai suggested Qu Ruyi.
Qu Ruyi was startled. Just now, she was pulling the wood demon's tiger skin, and now her golden elixir junior came to the door.
"Senior." Qu Ruyi was holding a wine glass to pour the wine. After hearing this, she poured the wine tremblingly and threw herself on the ground.
"Senior." Huang Ruhua also quickly saluted, then tilted her head and whispered: "Master came to see me before and said that Senior Wood Demon and a junior visited Daoyin Sect. It seems..."
"What does it look like?" Mu Zhen looked at Huang Ruhua with a smile.
"It looks very extraordinary." After all, Huang Ruhua was born as a casual cultivator. She has been used to living a good life recently, but she still has some quick wits. "Master told me to practice well, and if I have the opportunity, I should ask my seniors for advice."
< br>
Mu Zhen nodded slightly and sent a message to Lin Bai: "The fox must have said something bad about me. She must have encouraged this stupid apprentice to practice hard and try to frustrate me in the future."
"The fairy is strong, but her disciples are not competitive people." Lin Bai sent a message.
When Mu Zhen saw Lin Bai talking to Huang Ruhua, she didn't say much. Then she looked at Qu Ruyi and said, "I heard that Qu Chengjia cultivates the yin and yang of numerology, and has the ability to deduce the heaven and earth, and the unpredictable opportunities of gods and ghosts. I I have admired him for a long time.”
After hearing this, Qu Ruyi raised her head and glanced at Mu Zhen blankly. Seeing that she was serious and didn't seem to be making sarcastic remarks, she looked at Lin Zhuanlun again with a smile on her face.
Thinking about this, Qu Ru noticed that Lin Zhuanlun looked like he was in trance, and wondered if he had mentioned anything about defeating Qu Chengjia.
But after all, Qu Ruyi had been out and about, and for some reason she felt that this senior Mu Zhen was not kind. He was teasing not only herself but also Huang Ruhua, and he seemed to be here for the elders behind him.
In the blink of an eye, Qu Ruyi realized something. He guessed that since Mu Zhen had been to the Hui Dao Yin Sect and had seen a fox, the fox's broken mouth must have offended others.
And my elders are not amiable people, and they have always been at odds with Lin Zhuanlun. And since this Sister Mu came with Lin Zhuanlun, she must have a close relationship. If you think about Lin Zhuanlun's method of seducing women, this Sister Mu must hate the whole family, and she probably doesn't like her senior either.
"Senior, drink!" Qu Ruyi looked stupid and poured wine for Mu Zhen.
She was the best at making friends and didn't have too many distractions. She immediately took out the wine cup and toasted Lin Bai and Mu Zhen.
Mu Zhen was somewhat arrogant, and she was not bullying the weak. Seeing Qu Ruyi behave like this, she stopped asking about Qu Chengjia's matter, which was regarded as a revelation.
"Senior, what is the purpose of this attack on Jiuzhe Mountain? I've been in Jiuzhe Mountain for a while, so it's okay to run errands for senior." Qu Ruyi was very familiar with herself, and she gave Mu Zhen all her strength. Pour the wine.
"I came here for a secret trial realm." Mu Zhen didn't hide it.
Lin Bai looked at Mu Zhen's appearance, and it seemed that she was not disgusted with Qu Ruyi, and she even liked her a little.
When she was in Daoyin Sect, Sister Zhen lived at Dugu Yan's place, but rarely talked to Dugu Yan. This time, she and Qu Ruyi were quite chatty.
"Is my green snake okay?" Huang Ruhua saw that Qu Ruyi had coaxed Mu Zhen, so she moved her buttocks to Lin Bai and asked in a low voice.
"Everything is fine." Lin Bai replied with a smile.
"I'm relieved now." Huang Ruhua breathed a sigh of relief, and then sighed: "Xiaoqing is my life-contracted spirit beast. I've been feeling uneasy the past few days. It seems to have been greatly wronged. I don't know what kind of evil person it is. Bullying, if Ruyi hadn’t stopped me, I would have gone back long ago!”
She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, "Is it easy for me to raise a snake? Before leaving, I specifically told Shen Qiyun and Dugu Yan to take care of me! Even Min Qianqian, I also bought her candies! And Pei Ning! With so many people watching over me, my green snake is still being bullied! Don’t let me know who it is!”
"Xiao Huang." Lin Bai looked serious and serious. He patted her shoulder and said, "Why are you still like this when you are traveling abroad? It is true that Xiao Qing is the spirit beast of your destiny, but since you have entrusted her to her, you should rest assured. .You know, Xiaoqing has been wronged, so isn’t that a test?”
"But he's still young and only a little smarter than Min Qianqian." Huang Ruhua said pitifully.
"Because of this, it is even more important to practice." Lin Bai looked like an elder and taught him a serious lesson: "Master Yin went through so many hardships before he could realize the Nascent Soul. I even had to live and die several times before I could swallow the elixir. Don't you think so? Forgot? ”
When Huang Ruhua heard this, she was really frightened. She nodded, "No wonder the master said that you will be able to survive the calamity safely. He also said that your character is very good. It seems... I really should learn more from you."
She shook her head and sighed, then continued: "In the past, before I became a disciple of the fairy, my master once said that I lacked the ability to nourish my qi, and that I was always happy and angry."
"Exactly. Now that we have changed our appearance, we should change our lives. We can no longer hold grudges like this." Lin Bai said.
"Yes, I always thought that you could sleep with Xiao Jiang because she seduced you. Now I understand that she must be quite dependent on you." Huang Ruhua showed her face, clenched her fists, and said with a smile, "I understand. I shouldn't be worried. If you are dissatisfied, you should act as if nothing happened and don't show it. After meeting Xiaoqing and knowing who bullied it, I will take revenge secretly. "
Lin Bai realized that after preaching for a long time, how could he teach Huang Ruhua the wrong way?
"You should be more generous. Xiaoqing has Xiaoqing's fate. There can be no grudges. People seem to be bullying Xiaoqing, but they are actually tempering themselves." Lin Bai said.
"This training is for you, do you want it?" Huang Ruhua asked.
"..." Lin Bai was speechless for a moment.
"Haven't you seen it yet?" Qu Ruyi's face turned red, she took Huang Ruhua's hand and said with a smile: "Lin Zhuanlun has always been the only one who harms others. Now he has been speaking for those who bully Xiao Qing, or It was he who accepted someone else Good thing, he was the one who did it! Who would bully a stupid long insect in Min Hengbo's dojo? But Lin Zhuanlun would definitely do it! Don't forget, he was riding Xiao Qing in the Wuzi Secret Realm! ”
"It's you who is bullying Xiaoqing!" Seeing that Lin Bai didn't argue, Huang Ruhua understood immediately and grabbed Lin Bai's sleeve, "Yun Zhonghe! Lin Zhuanlun! You are really not a human being!"
She pointed at Lin Bai's nose, feeling very aggrieved, "You've been lying to me since the day you met me! And you've been lying to me ever since! I kindly concealed the matter between you and Girl Jiang, and never told Pei Ning, but you did the opposite. Bully my Xiaoqing!”
"Ah? So it's true?" Qu Ruyi was shocked. She immediately woke up, grabbed Huang Ruhua, and asked anxiously: "Is she Jiang Yu's biological sister?"
"Exactly!" Huang Ruhua drank a large glass of wine and said angrily: "I was so kind to them that day, but they took over my cave and did dirty things!"
"Tell me more about it!" Qu Ruyi was very interested.
Mu Zhen was also very curious and asked: "Is it the Qiaoshan Jiang family?"
"Exactly!" Huang Ruhua said.
Qu Ruyi poured the wine, brought it to Huang Ruhua's mouth, and served her attentively.
"How does it look?" Mu Zhen was really excited.
"It's not bad." Huang Ruhua was stunned for a moment, looked at Mu Zhen, then showed a strange smile on her red face, and put her hands in front of her, "No worse than seniors."
Mu Zhen held her forehead and looked at Lin Bai.
"Xiao Yu'er worships you as his teacher, but you... I'm really ashamed of Xiao Yu'er!" Qu Ruyi was disdainful, and pulled Huang Ruhua back and asked anxiously: "Is it really that big? I didn't realize it when I saw her in the past. Come out!”
"She likes to wear wide robes. Xiao Yu'er is not like her sister. I guess it's Lin Zhuanlun's fault!" Huang Ruhua understood clearly.
The two women kept talking. Mu Zhen kept her identity and could not interrupt, but she listened attentively.
The endless sound of waves by the endless river could not conceal Huang Ruhua's angry heart.
"Okay, let's get down to business." Lin Bai felt a headache and took out a scroll of animal skin, "Xiao Huang, when Tie Huasheng was about to die, he gave me this thing. It was a treasure map. You can Keep it.”
Sure enough, Huang Ruhua sobered up a lot at the mention of iron metaplasia.
Tie Huasheng is by no means a kind person, but he is both a teacher and a father to Huang Ruhua, and he cares very much.
"The rusty sword born from iron is similar to Chen Tianren's destiny. You have lived in Tao Yin Sect for a long time, can you gain anything from it?" Lin Bai asked. Mu Zhen had seen Tie Huasheng on Jinlie Island that day, but had never heard Lin Bai talk about the relationship between Tie Huasheng and Huang Ruhua.
Qu Ruyi secretly drank a cup and tilted her head to look at Huang Ruhua.
Huang Ruhua took the treasure map, looked at it for a while, and then murmured: "The master is running rampant with a rusty sword, but because of the elixir theory, he can't get the golden elixir."
She held the treasure map in her hand, looked at Lin Bai, and said: "That day at the grotto at the bottom of the lake, I remember what Senior Zhu Jianyang said, saying that some people are also destined to be swords of decay, but they are not like Master. Later, Master quoted When the thunder came, Gao Yuanyuan also told Chen Tianren’s story.”
Huang Ruhua looked at Jiuding Mountain outside the attic and said: "When I was in Daoyin Sect, Chen Tianren was giving a lecture. I didn't understand the big principles, but I saw Chen Tianren's purity. The fates of the master and Chen Tianren were both swords of decay. They are similar, but their circumstances are different. The master was very proud when he was young and established his foundation very early, but Chen Tianren was not famous. Later, the master only had a bad reputation and it was difficult to advance in cultivation. However, Chen Tianren accumulated a lot and gained the reputation of being a heavenly being. ”
She pointed to the towering Jiuding Mountain outside the attic and said: "The fairy said that compared with Chen Tianren, although the master and Chen Tianren have similar fates, their state of mind, understanding, and Taoist heart are all completely different."
< br>
"Li Chenyu's words are quite pertinent," Mu Zhen said.
Huang Ruhua curled her lips, but she didn't dare to contradict Jin Dan. She just glanced at Mu Zhen, and then looked at Lin Bai dissatisfied, as if to say, have you hooked up with another person?
"The predecessors have passed away, why should we feel sad?" Lin Bai just didn't understand and said with a smile: "I remember that day in the cave at the bottom of the lake, Tie Huasheng asked for the secret of flowers in the next life for you, and he paved the way for you before he died. Isn't that right? I hope you will be happy every step of the way?”
"You always comfort people." Huang Ruhua finally smiled.
When the four of them got down from the attic, they saw many disciples of the Jiuding Sect on the edge of the mountain cliff watching the scenery and expressing their feelings.
It was already night, the river breeze was cool and the sound of water waves could be heard. Looking far away to where the river goes, you can see the stars reflected in the ripples of light.
"In the past, when I was at Wuxiang's old residence, everything was still, as if even time had frozen." Qu Ruyi kept chattering, pulling Mu Zhen's sleeves, and curiously asked: "Sister Mu, Senior Wood Demon has the magic technique of dead wood cicada. , the changes of dawn. Is there really a master in the world who can stabilize the mountains and rivers and freeze the time? ”
Qu Ruyi knows what's going on and has already called her a good sister.
"Time is flowing, who can stop it?" Mu Zhen smiled and said: "But there are powerful people in the world, who may be able to travel through the long river of time. As for being able to stabilize mountains and rivers, maybe they can."
Recalling the situation that day, Lin Bai couldn't help but think of Li Xinghe's words again.
Looking into the distance, the endless river flows endlessly, as if it will never stop. The stars falling on the river only rise and fall with the water waves, and do not seem to drift with the current.
"When I see the endless river, I sigh at the long river of time."
For a moment, Lin Bai seemed to have some realization: before, he only felt that the sword's intention was hard to find. He first felt the intention of the earth fire, and then imitated the intention of Chen Tianren. He was already invincible in the same level, but now that he saw the miracle of Wuxiang's old residence, Can we ask for its meaning and make the mountains and rivers freeze as soon as the flying knife comes out?
Thinking like this, he sat down cross-legged, put the gourd in his arms, held the stone tablet in his hand, closed his eyes and came to the stone plate.
My thoughts are moving slightly, and the mist is rushing, but it is difficult to recreate the appearance of Wuxiang's old residence.
Lin Bai was not discouraged. He turned his hand to the sky and saw a small black jade cicada appearing in his hand.
In the past, when I traced the meaning of the jade cicada on the stone plate, I was almost seriously injured. Now, with the elixir forming, there is no more trouble.
The black jade cicada flew away and disappeared into the mist, and soon a small stone tablet appeared in the palm of his hand.
Its shape and quality are just like those seen when the three people sat opposite each other.
Feel it briefly and describe the details in detail. As the stone tablets were restored more and more, there was finally a change here, the mist was agitated, and the infinite stars hidden in it were slowly rotating.
After a long time, I saw the mist gathering around me, then the grass and rocks, and the deep river with fish jumping out of the water.
This situation is just like Wuxiang's old residence, but it is difficult to imagine the huge and tall trees, and there are no stars falling all over the sky.
After holding on for a while, Lin Bai couldn't hold on anymore and the fog dispersed.
After taking a short break to recover, he opened his eyes.
The winds in the mountains are strong and the endless river never stops.
It was already broad daylight, Qu Ruyi and Huang Ruhua didn't know where they were going, only Mu Zhen was by their side.
She was sitting next to him, but she was not practicing any practice. She was only wearing a finger ring, holding needle and thread in her hand, and she didn't know what kind of craft work she was doing.
The river breeze gently ruffled her temples, but Mu Zhen didn't care. She actually worked on her embroidery very seriously, just like an ordinary beautiful woman.
Lin Bai reached out and pushed her hair behind her ears, but without taking back the back of his hand, he gently brushed her cheek.
Delicate and smooth, like a girl.
"He died like this. It's been two days, can you get anything?" Mu Zhenhu continued to embroider without looking up.
"The dead are like this." Lin Bai replied with a smile.
"Junior Sister Mu, Junior Brother Lin!" A gentle male voice came, and Mo Yingcheng and Li Wusheng were seen coming from the distance and landing next to them.
Guan Mo Yingcheng's expression was quite exciting. I must have met the one I love, and all the worries in my heart were gone.
Li Wusheng looked even more charming, his face flushed, and he was obviously very happy.
"Senior sister Li invited senior brother to see the flower garden. How is the flower garden?" Lin Bai asked with a smile.
"Junior brother, please don't make fun of me." Mo Yingcheng was actually a little shy.
"Senior brother met a good match, but he didn't give any gifts as a junior brother. He only made a few batches of elixirs on weekdays, and asked senior brother to accept them." Lin Bai took out a large number of elixir bottles.
"What kind of elixir is it?" Mo Yingcheng asked curiously.
"Tiger Wolf Pills, a specialty of Qiaoshan," Lin Bai said.
"Junior brother is kind, but even though I haven't refined my body yet, I don't have any use for this." Mo Yingcheng shook his head slightly and smiled.
"I have always admired the elegance of Qiaoshan." Li Wusheng said suddenly, "Junior brother is an alchemy master, and he has good intentions and is not easy to reject."
Li Wusheng accepted it happily, his face even more red.
Lin Bai and Mu Zhen looked at each other, neither knowing what to say. Anyway, they both felt that Jiuzhe Mountain must have a profound method of dual cultivation, and they would need to ask about it someday.
The four of them chatted for a while, and then Li Wusheng led the three of them across the river and over several hills to a quiet residence in the back mountain.
"There are still some days before the secret trial realm opens, so you two will meditate here." Li Wusheng made arrangements and summoned a young female Qi practitioner to take care of this place.
Li Wusheng quickly made arrangements, apologized again, and left with Mo Yingcheng. Anyway, he was in a hurry, and he didn't know if it had something to do with getting the Tiger Wolf Pill.
"Although the Tiger Wolf Pill is strong in nature, it is an ordinary elixir after all. It can be used by qi-training monks and foundation-builders, but the golden elixir... I will try it." Lin Bai had no choice but to pull Sister Zhen inside.
After some nonsense, Mu Zhen asked about the prescription, and the two of them meditated separately.
One month passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Bai was describing the shape of a gourd when he was woken up by someone.
"The secret realm is about to open." Mo Yingcheng was quite tired and his face was slightly pale.
Li Wusheng's face glowed red, as if he had made progress in cultivation, and he said happily: "Two junior brothers and sisters, please come with me!"
