He looked around and found an extremely secret mechanism in the corner.
"Boom" the stone moved to the side, revealing a hole more than two meters high.
He looked left and right again, and after making sure there was nothing unusual, he dove in, and the stone door immediately closed with a "bang".
After walking for more than ten meters, you came to a wide space of more than twenty square meters. Taking off the cover, Sun Renyi took a long breath.
In the corner on the side, there is a stone tablet and an incense burner next to it.
Sun Renyi knelt down on the ground with a pop, kowtowed three times and cried: "My disciple is unfilial and has never come to see you. Please forgive me!"
He took out some fruits from his bag and placed them in front of the stone monument. He also took out a bottle of wine and sprinkled it on the ground, watching quietly.
After a long time, Sun Renyi sat there in meditation and said: "Master, my apprentice has been making slow progress recently, and I feel deeply uneasy. I have failed to live up to your expectations. I came here to practice here today. I hope that the master can give me some advice."
Sun Renyi took out a few Taoist charms, burned them and hit them on his four corners respectively, then slowly closed his eyes and muttered something.
A moment later, he appeared in the secret realm, surrounded by white and nothing. Sun Renyi meditated quietly, motionless.
"Why are you so uneasy?" came an old man's voice.
"Master! I... feel that my cultivation is getting slower and slower." Sun Renyi said.
"How can you practice when you are upset? You are very old now, how can you do this?" the old man criticized.
"The further you go in practice, the more difficult it becomes. You must be as calm as water and as one with nature and man. You have no talent and can only rely on your own hard work. Don't let down the reputation of the Shenxiang family, and don't let down my expectations for you. "The old man was not polite.
"Every time I feel like I'm going to escalate, it ends up with no results." Sun Renyi said with a sad face.
"If you feel the need to upgrade, take the initiative to upgrade, but it will be difficult to succeed. Upgrading depends on opportunities and opportunities. If you don't want to upgrade, you will upgrade when the time comes. Haste makes waste, and when the time comes, it will happen naturally." The old man said slowly.
"Yes, follow the master's teachings." Sun Renyi kowtowed.
"Remember, practice is not just about cultivating the Tao, but more importantly, cultivating the mind. The state of mind is ten thousand times more powerful than any Tao method. You have to gain more knowledge and experience, and you will slowly understand." The old man's voice became weaker and weaker.
"Master! I've only come here once in a long time, you... can only appear for this moment." Sun Renyi said aggrievedly.
"The time for my thoughts to exist is getting shorter and shorter. Sooner or later, I will never appear again. Now I can still say a few words to teach you, but maybe one day you will never hear it again. So, you are also middle-aged. You can't rely on me like a child." The old man gradually lost his voice and became silent again.
"Hey...Master..." Sun Renyi shed tears.
His eyes changed and he returned to the cave. After looking at the stone tablet, he closed his eyes again and entered a meditative state.
In a huge courtyard in the suburbs, three old men were sitting seriously in the lobby.
"Cui Bailong, people have been sent out. Just make sure the poisonous insects on your son are removed." said the short elder.
"Yes, I paid a lot of money to hire a Gu master from Southern Xinjiang. It turned out that the Gu was not that scary, it was just a cover. My son only suffered a small and short-term pain, and he was fine soon." Cui Bailong said depressedly.
"Haha... So you are scared of boring things and are as timid as a mouse!" the tall elder mocked.
"I...thought it was really that scary, so...Hey! I was careless!" Cui Bailong was annoyed.
"Are you sure the blood oath has been resolved?" the short elder asked again.
"Yes, it's solved. I didn't expect that I would be pricked by a few bastards!" Cui Bailong looked at the ground bitterly.
"According to the tip, a few of them returned to Yihe City, Shandong Province, but now there is no trace of them and their whereabouts are unknown." The fat elder said slowly.
"You bastard! How dare you run wild on the Cui family's territory! Can you send the people out? Don't kill them, live them! I want to see who they are!" The tall elder trembled with anger.
"Haha, why are you so anxious? The people sent have completed many missions, and they are all 100% completed. What are you worried about? Just wait for the letter. Those bastards will be found after they can't hide for a few days." The fat elder smiled.
"Cui Bailong, you have to figure it out this time, haha." The short elder said with a smile.
"Yes! This time, in addition to the normal mission fees, I also prepared a separate portion for the three elders. In addition, I gave the best and rarest treasures in my family to the three elders." Cui Bailong did not dare to look up.
As the head of the first-class Cui family, Cui Bailong would not be able to reach his current position without two brushes. He has always made good use of his ability to act according to the wind and his emotions.
Especially when it comes to interests, he is not stingy. He used the saying that money can make a fool of himself very vividly and it has proven successful time and time again. He also knows that many things are nothing as long as money can solve them. He was afraid that even money couldn't solve it, which gave him a headache.
The marriage of his third son this time was originally a sensational event in the local area, which gave him a little more gold on his face.
But I didn't expect that something would happen in the end. What was originally a shameful thing has now become a shameful thing, and the sky has turned to the earth. He couldn't let it go no matter what, thinking about those people who were cut to pieces all the time.
Cui Bailong originally wanted to solve this matter by himself, but his family was not happy and sent a killer directly. Although it saved Cui Bailong a lot of worry to a certain extent, after all, it was him who caused the family to lose face.
Cui Bailong knew very well that after those few people were resolved, the family would definitely cause trouble for him and would not let him off easily.
Therefore, he has been making up for his mistakes and using various methods to win over supporters, especially the three elders, making Cui Bailong rack his brains to please.
Although on many major matters, our family will summon subordinate families to discuss matters and fully listen to everyone's opinions. But everyone also understands that it is the three elders who really play the decisive role, and everything is just a cover.
Strictly speaking, these three people are just deputy elders. The real elder has been practicing in the secret realm for six years and is said to be coming out soon. During this period, three deputy elders exercised management functions.
The three people also restrict and supervise each other. The elders do not specifically assign them responsibility for anything. Everyone can manage everything and prevent changes from happening over time.
The three of them are also at odds with each other, talking and laughing on the surface, but resisting and attacking each other behind the scenes, and they all look down on the other two. The subordinate families see it very clearly. No one will be offended, nor will they please anyone too much. On the surface, they treat everyone equally, but in fact, each has its own elder to worship.
The same goes for Cui Bailong. The short elder is the person he secretly worships. Therefore, the other party will support Cui Bailong in many cases and leave some room and opportunities in many matters.
Just like this incident, the tall elder insisted on revoking Cui Bailong's position as head of the family. Thanks to the short elder's excuse of putting the overall situation first and stabilizing the family, Cui Bailong was spared this difficulty.
Therefore, Cui Bailong worked hard to worship the short elder behind his back. Money and goods kept flowing in. He also respected his personal family members very much and provided all possible conveniences.
Originally Cui Bailong wanted to resolve the matter of Sun Renyi and others by himself, but the short elder raised the matter to the level of his family and investigated and solved it in the name of his family. If the ending is perfect, our family will win, and Cui Bailong will be happy. If the outcome does not go well, it will be the responsibility of this family, and the first-level family relationship with Cui Bailong will be small.
Now our family has sent personnel to look for those people and try to catch them alive. If necessary, we can also kill them.
Everyone in the world is waiting to see the Cui family's joke, secretly adding fuel to the fire and adding fuel to the chaos, hoping to use this incident to discredit the Cui family.
The reputation of Sun Renyi and several others became instantaneous, and rumors spread everywhere. The Cui family was on pins and needles, vowing to capture them and then cut them into pieces.
Fortunately, several people went to find the master separately, and there was no trace of them from the outside world for a while.
The Cui family offered a reward of millions for anyone alive, so some people began to look for them and do the work of a bounty hunter. Who wouldn't want to do a good job that brings both money and fame?
Moreover, it has already spread to the outside world that those few people are not of high moral character, they are all young people, and many of them are eager to give it a try.
The killers sent by the Cui family focus on Lu Province because intelligence shows that they are there. Now that the news has been leaked, many practitioners have gathered in Yihe City, making the Eight Departments feel like they are facing a formidable enemy, for fear that they will cause trouble.
Wan Yan Leng grasped the information very promptly. He contacted Wan Yan Feng secretly and asked her to tell several people to be extremely careful and not to return to Yihe City.
As Yu Xiaolong is still practicing in the secret realm, Wanyanfeng can only wait for him to come out. In their spare time, she and Ying Kongxiu also found places to practice in Mount Emei.
Yihe City seems to be in order on the surface, but in fact there is an undercurrent and many people are looking for them. Wanyan Leng was well aware of the seriousness of the situation, so on the one hand, he secretly sent many people to find out the news. On the other hand, we also welcome visits from friends from the spiritual practice community.
Zhou Lie from the Eighth Office has not been home recently, squatting in the office around the clock to listen to reports and arrange matters. He vaguely knew that the storm was about to come.
