The body's blood...how can it actually create such an atmosphere?
The sound of the stream gurgled once again.
However, this time it was extremely weak, as the scene in front of you falls apart, the stream sound disappears completely.
The enlightenment of "the best is like water" that Master Yi left on me has completely vanished...
The moonlight is extremely bright, casting my shadow in a distorted form and pulling it into the open space ahead.
He Wen Ting lightly patted my shoulder.
"It turns out that the phantasmal three-toed worms of the Shendu are flowing out in pieces, but the real worm is only one, and it has been sealed within your eyes. In that moment, it was about to break through, and I seemed to see your eyes turn into those of Master Yi."
He Wen Ting seemed to be thinking.
"I must face the true worm of the Three Demons myself in the next time..." I closed my eyes and tried to regain my spirit: "Three strikes and you're out, this is already the third time."
"Big Brother, you have done and said everything that could be done, and now what's left is up to yourself. I look forward to you becoming anyone who breaks through that bottleneck." He Wen Ting's words were deeper and more enigmatic.
"Huh! Can you look at the time, Uncle? Wu Jinluan just found me, saying he's going up and down and down again! I was just enjoying a drink with Deer Sister and admiring the moon!" The old Gong's roaring voice suddenly rang out from the darkness ahead.
A head suddenly popped out from the steps and floated in front of me.
"Can't we take a break, take a breath? Is that small matter at Juqu Mountain really worth it? Can't we wait for two days?" The old Gong grumbled endlessly.
"If you hadn't said those words, they wouldn't have had a reason to come looking for me like this, Old Gong, this is karma." I let out a soft sigh.
"..." Old Gong.
"Let's go." I said again.
After that, I and He Wen Ting bowed and retreated.
"I still temporarily carry the Four Regulations Mirror and the Chichi Yushan Jade Mirror on me."
The situation I am facing now is more complicated and challenging than before.
These two artifacts are the keys to breaking through the deadlock in critical moments.
I haven't deliberately thought about what He Wen Ting said.
Demons in the heart are mostly imagined.
When you don't understand, how can you think about it when it doesn't understand either?
Keeping true to oneself and guarding one's mind, one will naturally become enlightened when it is time.
Just like Daojutsu of Mao Zhana!
On the way out of the Six Palaces, I encountered a hurriedly arriving Wu Jinlan.
It's obvious that he went to see Old Gong, who was indignant and came to find me, and then followed him.
"Wu Jinlan panted and said, 'I've notified Xu Yang, the disciple of Juqu Mountain.'"
"Why didn't you notify, waiting for me to do it for you?" Old Gong was still not pleased.
"Uh... Old Gong, why do you get so angry? It's just that you interrupted her conversation with the deer sister... and she didn't really listen to you..." Wu Jinlan smiled bitterly.
"You don't understand anything, woman, women always say no but still want it. If she ignores you, she's actually sneaking glances at you! She's playing hard to get with me. What's this called? Do you understand?" Old Gong was clearly getting frustrated.
I gave Wu Jinlan a look.
Wu Jinlan only realized this and whispered, "I don't understand..."
"It's good that you don't understand, where would you know, all the female disciples in Miaoxuan Hall are obsessed with me." Old Gong boasted.
Wu Jinlan didn't say anything; he deliberately showed his envy.
Indeed, Old Gong was even more pleased.
I silently laughed inside.
This is Old Gong's own face-saving, isn't it? Fortunately, he doesn't know that Wu Jinlan and I basically know everything in the dining hall.
After Wu Jinlan whispered a few more words, Old Gong finally fell onto his shoulder, tilting his head slightly and said, "We'll just make do with it. By the time we take the corpse pills, at least we should have one. At most, we can only take one from Tiejie Mountain. More won't be given."
"Let's do our best, because this may not be negotiable; after all, everything is provided by Tiejie Mountain..." Wu Jinlan was quite sincere.
He has always been like that.
He revealed directly that Old Gong hasn't actually been in a relationship with Deer Sister at the previous moment.
"Make an effort? There's no making an effort, you're just too easy to talk to. And that He Lin'an who wants to hear the Dao is too easy to talk to as well. No, He Lin'an just wants to hear the Dao and doesn't care about death. In short, this thing of dividing the spoils... bah, this matter of dividing what we gain, must be done according to my say-so." Old Gong was still going on and on, and Wu Jinlan naturally agreed without hesitation.
Wu Jinlan mentioned again, "Xu Yang will be waiting for us at the entrance of the mountain gate."
On the way here, I told Wu Jinlan to go notify the Ascension Dao Field and use all his connections to find Si Yan.
Old Gong got excited, nodding continuously and saying it's right.
He also told me that the female disciples of Miaoxuan Hall are quite formidable, and they would all come looking for me. Fortunately, he managed to stop them, or else I wouldn't have been able to face them.
I just nodded, whatever Old Gong said was right.
Not long after, we finally arrived at the entrance of the mountain.
Xu Yang was indeed waiting there, he looked confident but also very nervous.
It took almost the whole night to descend the mountain. When we reached the foot, there were already outer disciples of Si Guishan waiting here.
The matter of going to Juqu Mountain has the full support of Si Guishan.
Entering the city, take the high-speed train.
As soon as night fell that day, we arrived at the small town at the foot of Juqu Mountain.
The speed, it can't be called slow.
The small town was still lit up, and Xu Yang didn't bring us into the town, but instead led us to climb up a different direction.
The uphill path we were walking on wasn't the one we took before, it was quite unfamiliar.
After about three or four hours, we reached a smaller peak, but the area was very flat and its size was not inferior to the temple on the main peak.
It was still the tablet with "Out of Fathomless, Into Feminine" inscribed on it, and similar architectural structure.
"There are three people for the Three Mao True Masters, and there are three temples and peaks on Juqu Mountain, quite majestic." Old Gong yawned.
"You will also be tired?" Xu Yang asked with care and caution.
"I'm not tired, Xiao Wuzi isn't tired either, my father is made of iron, right? That's what you're saying." Old Gong rolled his eyes.
Xu Yang looked embarrassed.
He actually had bloodshot eyes, but his spirit was always clear and energetic.
When we arrived at this side peak, many disciples had already gathered around us, their faces showing much joy.
A red-clothed cultivator was walking towards us from the distance, very familiar, it was the person I had passed on my inheritance to.
When he reached my front, he didn't hesitate to kneel down!
"Mao Sheng, I pay my respects to the Young Abbot."
His kneeling down clearly stunned the other disciples.
Wu Jinlan was shocked to his core.
Even Old Gong opened his mouth wide, his yellowed teeth trembled and nearly fell out.
Later, Old Gong muttered in a low voice, "He got his thinking right, he knows how to handle things."
My brows furrowed tightly, but I said, "Mao Sheng Senior, you kneel to the wrong person, I am not a disciple of Juqu Mountain. Please get up."
"You are essentially, so, I have not kneeling to the wrong person. Last time, I should not have let you leave directly," said Mao Sheng before he leisurely got up.
"I, who you think I am, has nothing to do with it. Please get up quickly." I said in a low voice.
In the next instant, Mao Sheng decisively got up.
As I was taking a breath of relief, Mao Sheng continued, "I understand, Young Abbot."
"..."
