Formation?
And it is not a very clever formation, but the yin and yang qi here are more powerful, making Qiankun as strong as a defensive spiritual treasure, unable to break through directly.
Do you think the Phoenix Clan doesn’t have the basic guidance of 90,000 years of practice?
He still has this accumulation of knowledge.
Finding that he was trapped in the formation and unable to break out by force, the Golden-winged Dapeng was reckless for a few hours and then quickly calmed down.
If you can't break out, you must find the formation gate...
The golden-winged roc smiled coldly at the corner of its mouth, and its eyes gushed out with golden light. The spiritual power of the formation here... The path of circulation is clearly imprinted in my heart.
Found it, Shengmen!
The golden-winged roc flashed and appeared in front of the living door. He... hesitated again.
Would the Water God arrange such a simple formation?
After a while of silence, the Golden-winged Dapeng tentatively took a step forward. The situation around him suddenly changed. He fell a few feet down and fell into another trap. .
Multiple traps?
The golden-winged roc breathed a sigh of relief, feeling more at ease in his heart.
He continued to carefully explore everywhere, looking for a living door, and beware of hidden killer moves here.
So, with one step and three checks, his eyes were like lightning, and he scanned everywhere vigilantly.
In the Lingxiao Palace, an immortal god sighed: "Only the water god can scare such a master into such a state."
Li Changshou smiled calmly and replied Said: "It's just that he has many shortcomings in his own character, which is not my fault.
Look, when he sees me in the formation later, he will probably attack me without saying a word."
The whole hall of immortals and gods could not help but become interested and stared intently at the large bronze mirror.
In the chain formation of the fourth heaven, the Golden-winged Dapeng has found its second gate of life. This time it was a little more decisive, and after observing it for a while, it stepped into it.
The surrounding scene changed again, and the trapped array was still trapped array.
If not for each formation being different, the Golden-winged Dapeng would have doubted whether he had broken into some kind of clever formation.
But next...
Trapped formation, trapped formation, still trapped formation, Shengmen, Shengmen, Shengmen again...
Golden Wings The roc moved forward faster and faster, its brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and it broke through more than twenty traps in a row before suddenly stopping.
He saw the old man drinking tea under the crooked neck tree and the hanging wooden sign.
【Lost? 】
"Humph!"
The golden-winged roc bird was furious, and the shadow of two golden wings flashed out from behind, bursting out dozens or hundreds of golden light feathers, The old Taoist figure and the wooden sign were directly beaten into a sieve!
The old Taoist calmly put down his tea cup despite dozens of transparent holes all over his body, shook his head slowly, and his figure turned into clouds and disappeared.
The Golden-winged Dapeng snorted again and continued to explore everywhere. After discovering that this place was still a trapped formation, he bannedThe corner of his mouth twitched several times.
"Water God! What tricks are you selling!"
"Don't think that you can trap Pindao just by relying on this formation!"
"You It can trap the poor Taoist body, but it cannot trap the poor Taoist mind!"
Li Changshou was too lazy to pay attention. After the golden-winged roc found the door of life and left, he once again formed a void and faded away. When I got to the crooked neck tree, I changed it to an... identical wooden sign.
So, two hours later...
The Golden-winged Dapeng rushed back to the formation here from the same position, and saw the old Taoist, the crooked-neck tree, [Lost] After the wooden sign, I was stunned on the spot.
There are many small details here, such as the expression and movements of Li Changshou's cloud incarnation, which are exactly the same as last time.
"What the hell are you planning!"
The golden-winged roc opened its mouth and shouted angrily, raised its hand and shot out a black light, this time the person and the tree were directly crushed to pieces.
Then, the golden-winged roc cursed twice, turned around and headed towards the formation's birth gate.
After the golden-winged roc left, Li Changshou's Taoist charm appeared again, becoming the same old crooked-neck tree, the same wooden sign, and the same old Taoist name.
Seeing this, the immortals and gods in Lingxiao Palace were quite puzzled.
Mu Gong asked: "What is the purpose of the Water God's move?"
"Mu Gong, don't worry," Li Changshou smiled and said, "Just keep watching.
< p>This golden-winged roc is born with extreme speed, and the speed will become faster and faster in the next circle.It will be obvious within a month. ”
< p>Questions appeared above the heads of all the immortals, and the Jade Emperor in White was also very confused.As Li Changshou said, within half an hour this time, the Golden-winged Dapeng returned to the crooked neck tree for the third time.
At this time, although the expression of the golden-winged roc was still as cold and fierce, his eyes were a little more hesitant, and he hurried away after destroying the crooked-neck tree.
The time for the next lap was reduced to a moment, and the golden-winged roc rushed to the crooked neck tree...
[Lost? 】
The wooden sign swayed gently and creaked non-stop.
Golden-winged Dapeng's Taoist heart, which was originally relatively strong, has begun to waver a little now...
"I really don't believe it!"
Destroy the tree , birds fly.
After the golden-winged roc left, Li Changshou appeared again and restored the layout of the place to its original state.
The fifth circle, the sixth circle...
The tenth circle, the eleventh circle...the eighteenth circle...
Golden-winged Dapeng The speed of turning in the circle in the chain is getting faster and faster. From the back, when encountering the crooked neck tree, the body directly penetrates the shadow of the clouds and mist, and crashes into the entrance of the next large formation.
On the nineteenth lap, the golden-winged roc paused.
At this moment, his eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, his long hair was a little messy, his breathing was a little rapid, and all his magic power was scattered, but for the first timeOnce he stopped in front of Li Changshou.
Li Changshou smiled, maintained the same action he had repeated before, raised the teacup and took a sip, and said slowly:
"Have you enlightened?"
The Golden-winged Dapeng was stunned for a moment, stood still for a while, then showed a fierce look on his face, raised his hand and struck out with a palm, turning the situation in front of him into a cloud, lowered his head and continued to break through the level.
"Only you, you still want to confuse my Taoist mind!"
In this regard, Li Changshou did not rush or panic, formed the same arrangement again, and waited quietly.
After another seven laps, the golden-winged roc stopped again, but this time, he stopped at the 'previous square' of the node where the crooked neck tree was.
"No, this is an illusion formation, and everything around is an illusion!"
The golden-winged roc looked at the crevice in the rock where the only living door was, and took two steps back. From whispering to shouting, to shouting...
"It's all fake, all of this is fake!"
"This is an illusion, it's all false! False! Only I can be true! Only I can be true!"
Then the figure turned into a ball of golden light, rushing left and right in the formation, and was condensed by the yin and yang. Tai Chi Tu blocked it, and his head was bruised and bloody, and his long hair was scattered!
In the Lingxiao Palace, the immortals and gods actually...
There was a little sympathy.
Li Changshou shook his head slightly and said: "This divine bird's state of mind is really not cultivated enough. I thought he could survive ninety-nine and eighty-one laps, but he didn't expect that before it was even thirty laps, his Taoist heart started to Collapse."
Mugong couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead.
Some immortal gods sighed: "We are just watching, but we can also feel helpless."
"The water god is really clever. The chain trap formation can only trap this god." Bird, but every time the water god appeared and gave different hints, his guard was defeated step by step."
"If we were to go in, we wouldn't be able to survive thirty rounds."
"I realized at this moment that thunder and sky fire are no more than a small punishment, and there is still room for the eighteen hells."
Li Changshou smiled calmly, did not say much, and observed secretly After glancing at the Jade Emperor's expression, his mind returned to the trapped formation.
At this time, the Golden-winged Dapeng had already passed through the gate of life again, looking at the crooked-necked tree and the old man under the tree with somewhat dull eyes.
"Are you enlightened?"
Li Changshou asked this question again. The golden-winged roc looked fierce and flew under the crooked neck tree again. , crashed into this formation gate, and fell into the next 'reincarnation'.
At this time, Li Changshou began to add some new tricks.
At the eye of the chain formation, Li Changshou released several paper Taoists and began to recite the Taoist sutras in unison, causing chanting sounds to be heard throughout the formation.
So, three days later...
The golden-winged roc could no longer count how many times he had turned around and how many times he had seen the three characters "lost". How many incarnations of the water god.
He was already a little confused and stumbled to the rock.Before the peak, my body felt a sense of emptiness.
Like a demon, the golden-winged roc accidentally entered the rock peak, saw the same scenery again, and heard the voice:
"You, you understand." "
Golden-winged Dapeng's legs went weak, and he knelt on the cloud road, raising his head and murmuring: "What do you want me to understand? Water God, what do you want me to understand? ?”
Li Changshou looked a little disappointed, shook his head, and didn’t say much.
The golden-winged roc lost its ferocity at this time, but he stood up, trembling all over, and wanted to strike out, but felt that his efforts were in vain, so he lowered his head and flew by the side.
Ten more laps later...
Boom!
The golden-winged roc knelt in front of the crooked-neck tree and looked at Li Changshou, tears falling from the corners of his eyes.
"Sir, what do you want me to understand? What exactly do you want me to understand? Can you tell me? I will understand whatever you want me to understand!"
Li Changshou once again Shaking his head, he said calmly: "When you truly understand what you want to understand, you will find the answer.
Go ahead."
"Ah——"
The golden-winged roc shouted in collapse, stood up and stamped its feet. The figure flashed past the place very quickly and continued to circle.
After ten more laps, the golden-winged roc trembled in his heart, and suddenly thought of something.
Lost?
This is a question that I have seen countless times. This is a question that the Water God keeps asking himself.
At this time, what should be calmed down has been calmed down, and everything that should be thought of has been thought of.
If the Water God wants to kill him, he doesn’t have to put so much thought into it. Looking back on every conversation he had with the Water God, the other party once said that he would not kill him for the sake of his old friendship...
It must be Peacock, that guy whose yin and yang are still uncertain and doesn’t even know whether to call him brother or sister!
The repeated formations, the water god appearing again and again, repeatedly asking himself whether he has realized enlightenment, and the gently swaying wooden sign...
'Jin Peng, Are you lost? ’
For a while, such a greeting came from Dao’s heart.
The voices that he had heard sounded one after another at this moment, pushing him backwards, all asking him this question.
My eyes were pale, and a few images appeared in the paleness, from near to far...
'Humph, Peacock, just wait, I can still lead the Phoenix Clan to rejuvenate! ’
‘Mortals are just weaklings, and Taoist sects are all people who deceive the world and steal their reputation. I, the Golden-winged Dapeng, must take a different path. ’
‘Peacock, you can go to the primitive world by yourself. I gave you the three drops of Phoenix true blood. I’m just a Phoenix mutant, so it’s not important. ’
‘I, the golden-winged roc, want to be the fastest creature in the world! ’
Scene after scene, moment by moment.
The various situations after entering the Three Realms, the memories before entering the Three Realms...
The compliments you receive are just the use of yourself by others, and the praises you hear are just the medicine poured into you by others.
Who really respects him?
He, the golden-winged roc, is also the son of Shi Feng. How could he not know this? How could he not follow this path?
However, compliments and praises seemed to be poisonous, and he gradually got lost in the Western teachings of "Kuai Zi".
Such a complicated layout here...
It is telling him that indulging in these vanities and vanity is just self-reliance and losing oneself.
The Water God kept enlightening...
"Are you enlightened?"
I suddenly heard a soft call next to my ear, and the golden-winged roc suddenly replied God, but found that at some point, he was standing under the Crooked Neck Tree again, in front of the Water God, in front of the [Lost] wooden sign.
Poof!
The golden-winged roc bent his legs and knelt down, his eyes filled with tears. His once proud head gradually lowered and rested on the cloud road.
"I was wrong...
I just defected to Western religions temporarily. I just wanted to prove that I was no worse than Confucius.
I had long been lost in On the way, I already don’t know where I should fly.
I have great speed, but no one tells me where to fly, and no one tells me what to do!”
Li Changshou:...
Is this how you realize it?
Naturally, it cannot be ruled out that the Golden-winged Dapeng is deliberately pretending to be like this.
Keep a steady hand and act according to plan.
Li Changshou sighed slowly and said:
"You will find your way back when you have lost your way, the prodigal will return to his heart, everything will be good in the end, and the Tao will follow nature.
Go for another walk Damn it, don’t use magic this time.
Listen, see, and think.”
The golden-winged Dapeng looked up at Li Changshou, his eyes filled with tears. Confused, he lowered his head and saluted again:
"Yes."
After saying that, the golden-winged roc stood up, his steps a little erratic, and walked into the next door.
According to what Li Changshou said, he slowed down this time and walked slowly in the already familiar formation. He soon discovered some details that he had not discovered before.
——Of course, this was just added by Li Changshou.
For example, a scroll, a stone slab, or a simple drawing carved on a rock wall.
The story of the creation of the world, the battle between dragon and phoenix, the past conflict between the three clans of Lich and Man...
Some scriptures, some specious sentences, some chanting of scriptures that make people feel at peace. Voice.
The golden-winged roc’s vision gradually became clear.
He realized the insignificance of living beings, the majesty of heaven and earth, realized that he was just a clown before, realized that the way of heaven is grand and the saint is clear.
Extreme speed is a constraint, and detachment is not simply flying out of the world to mess around.Chaos Sea, walking in the world by yourself has its own meaning after all.
Half a month later, the golden-winged roc returned to the crooked-neck tree again.
He smiled slightly.
Before, I was restless and obsessed with demons. I was traveling through this chain of traps. No matter how fast I flew, no matter how fast I flew, I was just spinning in circles.
At this time, his anger was gone, and he returned here after walking for half a month. Although he was back to the starting point, he saw a different world, a different world, and his heart had completely changed.
The golden-winged roc lifted the hem of his robe, moved firmly and quickly, and knelt in front of Li Changshou.
"Thank you for the teacher's guidance. The Golden-winged Dapeng has committed several serious crimes before, please punish me!
However, I am still willing to work for the Phoenix clan and ask the teacher to keep my disciples. One life, and when the Phoenix clan has another bloodline to multiply in the world, the disciple will die."
Li Changshou nodded with a smile, and his figure turned into clouds and disappeared, but around him, an illusion appeared.
At the same time, the Golden-winged Dapeng felt a familiar atmosphere...
Peacock...
The illusion was a dense forest, in which Kong Xuan was revealed That slim and beautiful back, Li Changshou's words rang out in the forest.
"Don't worry, fellow Taoist, I will do my best.
But, fellow Taoist, have you really decided? Such a big sacrifice..."
"Well," Kong Xuan turned his head slightly, revealing his already soft profile, "He is my brother after all."
"Fellow Taoist, you submit to the mortal world, teach mortals, and save the Phoenix clan. A little bit of luck, and so...
I, Li Changgeng, will definitely do my best to fulfill my promise to fellow Taoist."
Kong Xuan smiled slightly, with relief in his smile. , helpless, with some hope and longing, and then disappeared into the five-color divine light.
The sounds of birds singing sounded all around.
The formation slowly dissipated.
The blue sky was filled with white clouds, and the bright sunshine filled the place...
The golden-winged roc knelt there, tears streaming down its face unconsciously.
In front of him, a shining golden bracelet lay where Li Changshou originally sat cross-legged.
The bracelet is engraved with complex Taoist patterns. Although the format is simple, it exudes Cang Ming's simple Taoist charm.
The golden-winged roc showed some relief, held the bracelet in both hands, and murmured:
"Teacher, I understand.
As long as you wear it, Once I get on it, I will accept the constraints of Heaven, and my speed will only be used by Heaven from now on.
I am a member of the Phoenix Clan. Like my sister, I cannot inherit the Phoenix Clan's bloodline, but I am willing to continue it for the Phoenix Clan. Luck serves the heaven, and you will live without complaint."
At this moment, the golden-winged roc sighed softly, closed his eyes, and placed the bracelet on his head...
< p>In the Lingxiao Palace, countless immortals stood up;While standing in awe, there were several emotional old immortals, already in tears.
Mugong sighed: "If you wear a gold bracelet, your speed will have a limit; if you don't wear a gold bracelet, it will be difficult to share the suffering of my sister."
The Jade Emperor even sighed. : "If you wake up in time, you should be called a man of the Phoenix tribe. Use it wisely."
In the bronze mirror, Li Changshou appeared again, but he walked to the golden-winged roc. , handed over a scroll.
[Template of oath of office for heavenly gods and gods]
"Teacher..."
"Yes," Li Changshou raised his hand on the shoulders of the golden-winged roc. After three clicks, "Read it."
The golden-winged roc showed a happy and comfortable smile, nodded heavily, opened the template, and began to read loudly, attracting the power of heaven.
An hour later...
After the golden-winged roc finished reading the scriptures, golden light shone around his body. He lowered his head and knelt down to Li Changshou again.
"Thank you, Teacher!"
But after two jingles, the gold bracelet on top of his head slipped off, making the golden-winged roc startled.
"Silly boy," Li Changshou said warmly, "You are the fastest divine bird in the world, why do you need a headband?
This is the Taishang Laojun personally refining it for you. Made of... anklets."
The golden-winged Dapeng was stunned for a moment, then picked up the gold bracelet and gestured at his feet, and the gold bracelet was immediately put on his ankle.
"Is it appropriate?" Li Changshou asked warmly.
The golden-winged roc suddenly had tears in his eyes, and nodded movedly, "Thank you, Teacher, for your concern. The size is just right."
Li Changshou agreed slowly, looking at the clouds in the sky with a smile.
I feel a little bit guilty.
"Remember to say thank you to your sister, but wait a few decades before you go, she is in retreat."
"Well, teacher, this lost wooden sign can be Do you want to give me a piece? I want to keep it with me at all times as a warning."
In the Lingxiao Palace, the Jade Emperor in white couldn't help but smile a little and said warmly: "I think it's better to stay in such a trapped formation as a form of heavenly punishment to encourage good deeds. What do you think?"
Jing...
"Your Majesty... I think I "No need to do so."
"Your Majesty, think twice, why are you so guilty?"
Li Changshou smiled calmly, but he began to look forward to the Immortal Alliance Conference in half a year. What will it look like when Dapeng appears as the special envoy of Heaven...
