After listening to Uncle Wang's narration of the past, the old Taoist also smiled slightly and said: "Well, Old Taoist, I have known for a long time that he will definitely leave, but don't worry, at least he is still alive and not dead."
"What?" I was so surprised that I yelled unconsciously.
After reacting, he hurriedly asked the old Taoist: "Senior, you are so kind and kind. Do you know anything? Can you point me to a clear way so that I can find my father and fulfill my filial piety?" I didn’t have my mother by my side when I was young, and only my father raised me. My father is my only relative. I don’t want him to die without a care and no one to accompany him.”
Seeing my sincerity, the old Taoist scratched his tangled hair and said after a long time: "Your father is trapped in a place and can't come out. Maybe he doesn't want to come out, and there's no way he can come out." It’s another dimension, where time hardly changes.”
I heard these nonsensical words from the old Taoist people, which made me very confused. But I understood one sentence. My father was trapped and couldn't get out. And the most important thing is that he is not dead, he is still alive. .
Uncle Wang, who was standing nearby and watching, was also a little excited. He and his father were like brothers. He was naturally happy to hear that his father was still alive.
I hurriedly asked the old Taoist: "Taoist Master, you are so compassionate. Can you tell me where my father is? Why is he trapped?"
The old Taoist replied: "Feng family boy, I didn't mean not to tell you, but I can't tell you too much. If I reveal too many secrets, I won't have good results."
"I can only give you a little hint. Go to Kunlun Mountain and have a look. That's it. I can't say more."
"But the way you find him is not that easy. You will go through countless hardships and ups and downs, and you will experience countless dangerous places. Life and death are commonplace."
"Don't think that just because you are a cultivator, you are invincible. Exploring, going to tombs, and digging for treasure are all very dangerous. If you want to be truly invincible, you must break through the shackles of your destiny, reach the pinnacle of life, and achieve an invincible life."
At this time, the old Taoist stood up and I quickly got out of the way. The old Taoist walked out of the thatched house and looked at Uncle Wang standing in front of him.
"Boy, why did you bring this little kid here? Are you going up the mountain?" the old Taoist asked, looking at Uncle Wang.
Uncle Wang also hurriedly replied: "Yes, senior, this junior is taking the Feng family boy to Zhongnan Mountain this time. There are some things to deal with."
"Oh, then why did you come to see me again?" the old Taoist asked
When Uncle Wang saw the old Taoist asking himself, he just smiled and said, "Didn't I just go up the mountain and pass by here? I thought of you, old man, and came here to see you?"
The old Taoist nodded and said: "Well, boy, you have your heart. To outsiders, I am just a madman or a blind old man. But who knows that I am traveling in the world of mortals?"
"There is no Wu Shouyang in the world, only a sloppy Taoist. I am just a passer-by in the world of mortals. Just like you, I am just a passer-by in the world of mortals. Everyone is a passer-by in this era, and there is only one protagonist."
What I said to the old Taoist was also vague. I couldn't understand what he meant at all, so I had to look at Uncle Wang.
Uncle Wang nodded thoughtfully, as if he understood a little bit of the truth, and bowed deeply to the old Taoist, saying: "Thank you, senior, for your advice. I would like to thank you again, senior."
"Xiao Lin, bring out some food and give it to Taoist Master Chongxuzi. Taoist Master Chongxuzi is a true master of the Taoist sect. His cultivation is unfathomable. He is the pinnacle of the Taoist sect in the secular world. If he goes further, he can ascend to the immortal level. Position, ascend in the daytime”
I was quite shocked when I heard Uncle Wang's analysis of the old Taoist, and thought in my heart: "Our Feng family has made it our mission to find ancient relics and caves left by the immortals in the ancient wars between the gods. I didn't expect this sloppy old Taoist in front of me. He is such an arrogant person."
"It makes me want to kowtow and become a disciple. With such a great theological magic, it must be very powerful."
I was still fantasizing in my mind, and Uncle Wang called me by my name directly: "Feng Lin, what are you doing? Didn't I tell you to get something out? What are you doing?"
I quickly came back to my senses and agreed: "Oh oh oh, I understand, Uncle Wang, I accidentally lost my mind just now and was thinking about something."
The old Taoist's eyes wrapped with black cloth looked at me, and after a long time he said: "Boy, the fate between you and your father is still there and has not been broken. You can see him, but this time is a bit Commander, you have to be prepared."
The old Taoist rarely said a few more words, which was a kind of reminder to me. I quickly opened the eight treasures bag, took out a lot of food, and placed it beside the thatched house.
He bowed and said in salute: "Thank you, Master, for the reminder. I am not afraid of difficulties and setbacks, and time is not a problem. I will not give up."
At this moment, I sincerely thank the Taoist Master in my heart, so what I said just now was thank you, the Taoist Master, not the Taoist Master.
When the old Taoist saw me saluting like this, he stretched out his hand to help me up. Although he didn't know whether it was because of his real eye disease or because he was blindfolded and refused to see, he held my arm accurately as if he saw it with his own eyes."
I just felt that for a moment, my arm seemed to be bitten by something, and there was a slight pain, but through the sleeves of my clothes, I didn't care, I just gently massaged the painful part."
The old Taoist had a smile on his lips. He was not looking at me. Instead, he was concerned about the food on the floor. He didn't care whether the floor was dirty or not. He sat down directly and opened a roast chicken wrapped in brown paper. In private, a chicken leg was enough. Let’s start eating. I can’t describe the appearance of eating it. It’s like the next generation of evil spirits.”
"Uncle Wang and I got off the train and when we were looking for a place to stay, we passed by a deli and went in to buy a dozen roast chickens. The owner of the shop was very happy. “It’s so annoying”
Uncle Wang and I carried two big bags of roasted chicken and walked out of the delicatessen. The boss was still behind and said with a flattering look on his face: "You are welcome to come and buy again. Our roasted chicken is the most famous in the area." , Uncle Wang and I are too lazy to pay attention to him."
Walking on the street, when there is no one around, I put them all in the eight-treasure bag. I was also drunk carrying so many roast chickens while walking on the street.
Seeing the old Taoist devouring the roasted chicken, Uncle Wang quickly opened a bottle of mineral water and handed it to the old Taoist, and said: "Senior Chong Xuzi, please eat slowly, don't be in a hurry, these are yours, have you been practicing recently?" I haven’t eaten for a long time.”
The old Taoist wiped his mouth with the sleeves of his shiny black Taoist robe and said: "Old Taoist, I don't need to eat. However, I have a craving for food, especially roast chicken. Oh! Roast chicken is so delicious."
I thought to myself: "Give him this roast chicken of ours. This is really the right gift."
The old Taoist took the water from Uncle Wang, drank a few sips of water, and said: "Boy, I think you two are also good people with good intentions, so I will give you a hint directly. You have to go up the mountain at night, right?"
Uncle Wang was stunned when he heard this, because Uncle Wang really planned to go up the mountain at night. He didn't expect this old Taoist to be so powerful and predict his thoughts directly.
But then I thought about it and felt a little relieved. This old Taoist was hundreds of years old and no longer a mortal. It was normal to have special powers. It was normal to be able to pinch.
So he humbly asked the old man for advice. Uncle Wang said: "Senior Chong Xuzi, you know that I want to go to Zhongnan Mountain tonight, but do you have any instructions?"
The old man broke off another piece of chicken and ate it, and said vaguely: "You, if you, uh, if you want to go up the mountain, you have to take the road to the south. There is a place over there called Zhuwagou. There is a baby that is about to appear. If you are capable, you might as well give it a try."
The old Taoist finally finished explaining the reason with hiccups in his mouth, while stuffing chicken into his mouth. Uncle Wang was overjoyed as he listened. The old Taoist was hinting to himself, could this unborn thing be considered a rare treasure?
I kept looking at the old Taoist without speaking. The old Taoist quickly finished the whole roast chicken, then reached for the pile of food on the ground and picked out a piece of air-dried beef with a packaging bag. Just tear open the bag, grab it and eat it.”
Uncle Wang hurriedly said: "Thank you for your advice, senior. I'm going to go into the mountain at night. According to what senior said, I will take the south road, but I don't know if senior can give me some more tips. Then, baby What exactly is it and where is it?"
The old Taoist who was eating beef listened and took a sip of water and said: "That baby is a living creature. It is on the back mountain of Zhuwagou. This baby is suspicious. It looks like a small golden snake. It disappears when it enters the water and changes when it enters the soil. , it will escape along the soil, it is a strange object, and this object will only appear at night, you cannot see it during the day."
"This treasure was transformed from the essence of the mountain behind Zhuwagou. It absorbed some things and formed a unique creature. In fact, it does not have a formal name. Based on its formation, I just called it "Golden Soul"
Uncle Wang took note of the old Taoist's words, nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you very much, senior. With my current strength, I should have some hope of getting that thing."
"Senior, I'm getting ready to leave now. Do you have anything else to say?"
The old Taoist stretched out his hand and shook it, indicating that he had nothing to say. Seeing that the old Taoist was not talking, Uncle Wang also bowed and saluted the old Taoist and said: "Senior, please say goodbye here. I will come see you again when I come down the mountain."
The old Taoist nodded, recognizing what Uncle Wang said. Uncle Wang and I turned around and left, heading in the direction of Zhongnan Mountain.
