This, here...
Is this really the Xiao Qiongfeng that I am familiar with?
In a trapped formation outside the alchemy room, Taoist Priest Qi Yuan, the newly promoted Immortal of the Duxian Sect, with his eyes unfocused and his robes scattered, was looking at the three paths in front of him at a loss.
It's been a few days and I haven't been able to get out...
He actually spent many years studying formations, but his level of formations was very limited.
——After all, in the next few hundred years, Qi Yuan spent most of his time repairing the Tao foundation, and to study the formation method, he just took the formation diagram and laid it out a few times before memorizing it. No matter how you arrange it, it can be regarded as a small success.
So, facing the confusing series of formations...
"Which expert set this up on my Little Qiong Peak? But what's the plan?"
< p>Qi Yuan, the old Taoist, murmured and forcibly recalled the route he had taken before;In a daze and confusion, Qi Yuan found a new path in the confusion.
Ahead, the forest is lush and green, without the common white fog, and the scenery is very ordinary.
Qi Yuan moved forward cautiously, and soon made a new discovery this time.
A wooden sign was hung on the treetop in front, with three big characters written on it:
【Lost? 】
Qi Yuan nodded subconsciously, then trembled, his eyes full of vigilance.
Why does this handwriting look so familiar?
Old Taoist Qi Yuan stared at the wooden sign for a while, and then saw a wooden sign hanging on the tree behind him. He took two steps forward. The surrounding scenery changed slightly, but the wooden sign behind him The cards are still there.
There is another sentence written on the wooden sign...
[Why do you come to Xiaoqiong Peak? 】
"The poor guy lives here!"
Qi Yuan scolded angrily, but his hands couldn't help but tremble.
Could it be...
Is this the rumored time gap?
It is said in ancient times that an innate being entered a canyon and walked out of the other end of the canyon tens of thousands of years later, unaware of the changes in time.
Could this kind of ridiculous thing also happen to Pindao?
The Xiao Qiongfeng at this time is no longer the Xiao Qiongfeng when he was still there? Is this Xiao Qiongfeng that has passed thousands and hundreds of years?
As soon as he saw that there was another wooden sign behind him, Qi Yuan walked forward following the wooden sign again. When he stood in front of the next wooden sign, the surrounding scenery would change slightly, as if he had changed his position. , it’s the turn of events.
After the wooden sign, there is another wooden sign.
And the handwriting written on the wooden signs became more and more familiar to Old Taoist Qi Yuan...
It was as if there was a dark shadow following him, next to his ears. The constant questioning drove him closer to a certain trap, but he did not dare to retreat.
【Your Majesty, are you a member of my Duxian Sect? 】
[This array is only for protecting the important area of the alchemy room, and it is in line with this sect.Restricted by door rules and regulations]
Alchemy room? It seems that I have vaguely heard my disciple talk about it.
【Your Majesty, did you break into Xiaoqiong Peak without permission? 】
Does a poor person still need to break in? Pindao is the peak master of Xiaoqiong Peak!
[Please don’t destroy the plants and trees here, this road leads to an open space without soundproofing array]
Eh? Is this the exit left by the people who set up the formation?
[This is a guide sign]
[The open space is just ahead]
[Here we are, please take three steps forward]
Qi Yuan paused, held his breath subconsciously, looked at a big tree in front of him, and took three more steps forward with some suspicion.
The scenery in front of him changed again. An open space surrounded by trees appeared in front of Qi Yuan. The ground was covered with fallen leaves. There was a low table and a bucket of spiritual spring next to it.
"This... what is this place?"
Seeing a wooden sign in front of him, Qi Yuan walked over and looked at what was written on the wooden sign, saying, "I am very happy." The handwriting is familiar but I can't remember where I have seen it...
[Excuse me, please wait here. If I fail to arrive in time, it should be at a critical moment of retreat or elixir refining.
If you can’t wait any longer, you can use your immortal power to shout outside for help, help, etc.
Xiao Qiongfeng sincerely welcomes your visit, but next time please come directly to the door and don’t stray near the alchemy room again.
Qi Yuan, the master of Xiaoqiong Peak, pays my respects]
Qi Yuan’s hands trembled and he took two steps back, but his back hit a tree trunk.
The escape route has been blocked unconsciously.
‘This, is this set by Pindao himself? ’
Old Taoist Qi Yuan’s eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost. The slight drunkenness that was still there disappeared in an instant. He glanced around and felt a little dizzy.
Could it be that the poor man got into trouble?
No, no, is this because Zhuoxian is unclear?
When I was drinking just now, a senior in the sect reminded me that Zhuoxian is easily infected by the earth's energy, and the Taoist heart is prone to demonic obstacles.
Could it be that Pindao is just the inner demon of the real Taoist Priest Qiyuan?
Qi Yuan's hands began to tremble slightly. He rushed to the wooden sign again and looked at the words written on the wooden sign, his eyes full of disbelief.
The handwriting on these wooden signs...
Aren’t they exactly his own handwriting!
His feet slipped, and Old Taoist Qi Yuan sat down on the ground full of fallen leaves. His eyes were dull and distracted, and his long gray hair was a little messy.
The passage of time, the turbid immortals, the inner demons...
The passage of time, the turbid immortals, the inner demons...
"Who is Pindao?" Is Pindao really just his own inner demon?
No, this is impossible. Pindao is definitely not his inner demon.
I am.It is Qi Yuan, Qi Yuan is me, I have stepped into the gap of time, I cannot be the inner demon!
No, no!
No, no...
No——"
Qi Yuan Lao Dao held his head with both hands, suddenly raised his head and shouted, startling Xiao Qiong There were birds flying far and near on the peaks, and a few figures who happened to be passing by in the distance took a curious look at the jungle at Xiaoqiongfeng.
Suddenly, there was a slightly startled sound coming from the side. Female voice:
“Master? "
Qi Yuan's shouts stopped suddenly, and he asked in a trembling voice: "Ling'e? "
"Master, are you trapped in the formation? "
"Are you really Ling'e? ”
“Yes, Master, can the disciple still make mistakes?” "
"No, no, you may be the inner demon... the inner demon of my teacher..."
Outside the formation, Ling'e, who had just arrived, couldn't help but hold her hand. Uh.
It’s over, the master was ruined by his senior brother.
She groaned and immediately had an idea, saying hurriedly: “Don’t move around here. There are many formations!
Don’t go in the direction of Ling’e’s voice either. If you leave that small area, you won’t be able to hear the sounds outside!
Disciple will go in to find you now!
But the disciple has to spend time to find the formation path to your location. Only senior brother can unlock the formation here. This place is all arranged by senior brother. Master, please wait for a while. "
Old Taoist Qi Yuan was startled for a moment, and soon heard the sound of 'Oops' coming from outside.
What did his little disciple say just now?
p>Senior brother?
Is this the arrangement made by Changshou?
Qi Yuan’s eyes were full of doubts, and he gradually calmed down because he was lost in thought.
Half an hour later, Lan Ling'e, covered in grass and leaves, with a bruised nose and a swollen face, appeared in front of the master with a wry smile and bowed to him.
"Master, this disciple is here to see you. "
Qi Yuan couldn't help but stare at Lan Ling'e. Lan Ling'e calmly and calmly performed several small spells, which were all taught by Qi Yuan Taoist before.
"Master , It's really Ling'e..."
Qi Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile: "What on earth is going on? "
"Well," Ling'e bit her lip and pondered for a few times, thinking about how to help her senior brother get through.
She quickly took out another treasure. He quickly walked to the low table, took out two cushions and a teapot, and said with a smile: "Master, please come here and have a rest first, and allow me to report slowly. ”
Qi Yuan’s eyes were still filled with doubts, but when he sat on the cushion and looked at Lan Ling’e’s familiar tea-making technique, the doubts in his heart disappeared by a few percent.
p>The forest is quiet, with only the rustling sound when the breeze blows the treetops;
Looking up from here, because the surrounding trees cover theIt seemed that only this small piece of blue sky was left...
Suddenly, the old man understood something.
The old Taoist looked around everywhere and asked in a low voice: "This place was all arranged by your senior brother?"
Ling'e said: "It should be said that it was designed by the senior brother. Tianfeng’s Master Jiujiu, the True Immortal, arranged the arrangement.”
“Oh, no wonder,” Qi Yuan said with a bitter smile, “It turned out to be Junior Sister Jiujiu who helped arrange it.”
"Actually, Uncle Jiujiu doesn't know much about formations at all. It was my senior brother who told him sentence by sentence to put this here and that there."
Ling'e paused, lowered her head and said: " Master, have you really never noticed it?”
Qi Yuan picked up the tea cup and took a sip. It was indeed his favorite chrysanthemum and lotus seed tea.
"What did you find? What do you like about your senior brother?"
"Oh!" Ling'e's pretty face turned red instantly.
Old Taoist Qi Yuan frowned and stared, "Don't you like longevity?"
"This...can't say it directly, the disciple will be embarrassed..."
< p>Ling'e quickly calmed down and said softly: "Senior brother, he is actually very extraordinary.""Oh?"
There was something in Qi Yuan's eyes. Favoring, she smiled and said: "In your eyes, your senior brother is naturally extraordinary."
"No, master," Ling'e raised her hand and smoothed a strand of hair beside her ear, "Senior brother He is actually much more promising than you think, Master.
For example, the formations here are all made up of basic formations.
Senior brother, let’s go. Uncle Jiujiu can help, but it won’t make any difference if I let my senior brother decorate this place alone.”
Old Taoist Qi Yuan was startled again.
Ling'e continued:
"Senior brother has taught me a lot since I have been a disciple for more than ten years.
Many times, after you preached, master, the disciple If you don’t understand the truth, the senior brother will come over to explain the essence to the disciple.
Often, the senior brother can reveal the true meaning in one or two sentences, so the disciple will be so advanced. ”
Qi Yuan frowned and looked at Ling'e, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Ling'e said softly: "Also, Master, look at what level of cultivation this disciple is now?"
Qi Yuan Fusu muttered twice and said: "Refining Qi Ninth level?"
Ling'e raised her sword fingers together and made a complicated seal, and the breath suddenly surged out from her body, "What about now?"
Qi Yuan Her eyes widened, "Return to the fifth level of God! Ling'e, when are you!"
Ling'e made a silent gesture, formed a seal with her hands again, and the aura around her body quickly restrained.
She whispered: "This is the [Turtle Breath Calming Qi Technique] passed down to me by my senior brother. It can hide one's own cultivation. As long as the body is not touched by people at the true immortal level, it can be hidden, and Simulate the state you want to express."
There was only shock on Qi Yuan's face..
"Master, senior brother, you have been practicing for a hundred years, and you have spent most of your time in seclusion to practice and strive for the immortal realm. You have too little understanding and care for senior brother."
Ling'e Duan He picked up the tea cup, held the bottom of the cup with two slender fingers of his left hand, held the tea cup in his right hand, and took a sip, with no hesitation in his eyes.
"While my senior brother was tricked by Uncle Jiuwu and went to the East China Sea, I want to make these things clear to you, Master.
I have been watching my senior brother do what he did for you, Master. There are many things that have happened to me, but you don’t know anything about them, and every time you see your senior brother, you either scold him or tell him how unbearable he is.
Master, I’m afraid that senior brother is not far away from becoming an immortal now.
< p>Master, the Immortal Fusion Pill you use for military solution is, as the disciple expected, it was made from the Immortal Solution Grass that the senior brother personally dug up from the depths of Beiju Luzhou during the training conference a few years ago.Master, you are worried about your destiny to become an immortal, and my senior brother has been most worried about your destiny, and you have made a lot of efforts for this.
Master, all you see is that magic. Master's birdcage... In fact, the senior brother has made more than ten treasures to resist the catastrophe in the past two years, but they were all ineffective in subsequent tests.
The disciple only saw the senior brother being upset a few times. He squatted in front of the treasures that had been destroyed by lightning;
The only time the disciple was nervous when he saw his senior brother was when he was going through the disaster before his master."
Ling'e looked at it. Qi Yuan said, but the latter's eyes were blank, sitting there as if the wood had turned into stone.
"Master, senior brother is really extraordinary. This is not a disciple's lie..."
Slowly, Ling'e told what she knew about senior brother.
Although she would have a lot to hide because of her senior brother's instructions, there was no exaggeration;
Qi Yuan gradually returned to his senses, allowing Ling'e to use Turtle again. After performing the Qi Calming Technique and looking at the many elixirs and poison pills Ling'e carried, the old Taoist sat there again and fell into deep thought.
After a while.
Qi Yuan asked uneasily: "Ling'e, you said that as a teacher... what should I do as a teacher? When your senior brother comes back, go and praise him?"
"Master, you'd better just pretend that my disciple didn't say anything to you today, pretend that this didn't happen, and just do whatever you do on weekdays," Ling'e said with a smile, "Senior Brother will come in to pick us up later, so just take the Use a whisk to spank his butt...
Just don't use too much force.
Every time Master wants to hit Senior Brother, it is actually Senior Brother who deliberately exposes his weaknesses so that Master can catch him. "
Qi Yuan had a few black lines on his forehead and said with a wry smile: "Is it so unbearable to be a teacher?"
"Uh," Ling'e shouted quickly, " Master, you are so wise and powerful!”
Qi Yuan hesitated and said, “Then, I’m going to pretend that I didn’t hear what you said.”
“Senior brother, this person is the most important person. What he wants is for others not to pay attention to him, and then he can make a fortune in silence." Ling'e puffed up her lips and said, "Disciples must now study under the teacher.I deliberately act stupid in front of my brother. I should pretend to be confused, otherwise I will definitely be alienated by him..."
Ling'e changed the subject and began to criticize how Li Changshou bullied her. The little junior sister tried to relieve the depression in Master's heart.
Soon, Qi Yuan was laughed at by her and became full of energy again.
"You! Hahaha! "
Qi Yuan stood up and walked aside, looking at the various arrangements of the formations that he could not figure out, so as not to let his little apprentice see the moist corners of his eyes.
" As a master, I am too selfish. I only want to escape the tribulation and retreat.
Alas, Master brought your senior brother in and taught him the exercises, and he has been in retreat, ever since.
After surviving the catastrophe this time, I wanted to guide your senior brothers and sisters in their practice, but I found that my teacher is the one who has always been cared for.
That’s all, that’s all, Master doesn’t care anymore, just don’t worry about it.
If there are disciples like this, as a teacher, I can also comfort all the masters in the Xiaoqiong Peak lineage! "
After saying that, Qi Yuan turned to look at Ling'e and said with a smile: "Moreover, my little disciple, who is my master, is so sensible now.
Ling'e smiled sheepishly and muttered in a low voice: "In order to be worthy of my senior brother, I have been working very hard." ”
“Oh? "
"Uh, Master, the tea has gone cold!
Master, please do not expose what I said today! "
"Okay, okay, let's pretend to be stupid together and act in front of your senior brother," Qi Yuan sat back behind the low table and took out the whisk, "I will teach your senior brother a lesson later. You can also work together and try your hand. ”
Ling’e’s eyes suddenly lit up: “Is this okay, Master?” "
"Of course, after treating my teacher like a monkey for so many years, of course I have to deal with him! "
Lan Ling'e immediately cheered.
Qi Yuan said again: "Don't worry, I will go into seclusion to learn the Zhuoxian cultivation method later. From now on, on this Xiaoqiong Peak, you guys Senior brothers and sisters just have to deal with it. "
After saying that, Qi Yuan looked at the tea in front of him and the old face reflected in it, and couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.
Seriously...
Wonderful, indescribable.
