Before anyone could say anything, Senior Brother Luo took the lead in raising his flying sword and flying towards the distance. Seeing this, everyone else also raised their flying swords to follow.
Several Taoists flying in the air came to their senses and asked Senior Brother Luo about his specific situation.
"Senior brother, is there really a family in Black Mountain City that all has the qualifications to cultivate immortality? Or is it that one family has the Heavenly Spiritual Root, the Mutated Spiritual Root, and the Double Spiritual Root all together?"
...
Before Senior Brother Luo could reply, a Taoist next to him said: "Do you think Yan Wu and others can make mistakes in such small things? Hehe, I really didn't expect that there would be so many geniuses in a small Black Mountain City, no? Knowing how much can be discovered in the entire Qianyuan world, the ancestors really have foresight, and our sect should be prosperous together."
After hearing this, Senior Brother Luo replied: "I'm afraid it's just a coincidence. So far, no one has summoned the junior brothers and sisters from other states. Come to think of it, even dual spiritual roots are rare!"
At this time, another young Taoist also said: "It should be so, but even if it is just these two children with heavenly spiritual roots and mutated spiritual roots, plus other children with the qualifications to cultivate immortals, we are worthy of it." This trip, this is a bit higher than the quality of disciples that the sect has recruited several times."
A few hours later, the group came to the woods next to Baihu Village. Senior Brother Yan and Junior Brother Lu, who were hiding in the trees in the forest, slowly emerged when they saw the crowd arriving.
The two parties met and greeted each other, and the young Taoist named Yan told Senior Brother Luo the whole story and his thoughts.
Upon hearing this, Senior Brother Luo nodded and affirmed: "Junior Brother Yan, you did a good job, but we can't wait for them forever. Wait for them here for three days and then take them away. I will wait here for these few days. Pay close attention and don't make any mistakes." The other young Taoists agreed and each found a branch to sit on.
...
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. During these days, Ning Hutou and Xu Xiu Niang took great care of Ning Tao and Ning Feng. Xiu Niang even made new clothes for the two of them overnight and told them to take good care of their sisters. , brothers work together, break gold and so on.
Ning Tao knew that parting was just around the corner. Although Xu Xiu Niang was not his own mother, she was always very considerate to her and never treated her differently. She was even better than her brother Ning Feng. Not only that, but he and his younger brother Ning Feng are not like brothers. They have already regarded each other as the closest people.
Ning Feng's careless and careless appearance made his father, Ning Hutou, couldn't help complaining in his heart. He found an excuse to teach this guy a lesson and told him to discuss it with Ning Tao if he had anything to do. He cheated and helped count the money.
In this way, the family spent the past few days full of worries.
It was another day when the sun shone over the earth, and cheerful birds were chirping on the branches, welcoming the arrival of a new day, without any idea that the family below was about to part ways.
At this time, Senior Brother Luo, who was hiding in the forest outside the village and sitting cross-legged on a tree, opened his eyes and said, "It's time, let's go."
After hearing this, the other people opened their eyes and followed Senior Brother Luo out of here, heading to Ning Hutou's small courtyard.
A group of people came to the yard. At this time, Ning Hutou, who had gotten up early, saw a few people arriving. From the crowd, he discovered that the Taoist surnamed Yan whom he had met a few days ago had become a follower. He knew that his thinking was indeed good. The immortal will never let go of his three children. If he had refused before, he would never be like this again.
He called out to Xiu Niang, who was cooking in the kitchen, and Ning Tao and Ning Feng, who were practicing martial arts next to them, also stopped what they were doing.
Ning Hutou broke the embarrassment with a light cough: "Chief Immortal, you are here, please go into the house and wait a moment. The embroiderer is cooking. Let the children eat this meal."
The leader, Senior Brother Yan, nodded slightly and said, "Okay, don't be in a hurry, you just eat, I'll wait here." After saying this, he stopped talking.
After a while, the meal is ready.
Xiu Niang called the two brothers to the table. Ning Hutou also sat at the table a little lonely without saying anything. The whole family was silent like this. Xiu Niang could no longer hold back the tears in her eyes. She turned away and secretly wiped them away. With tears.
Ning Hutou was silent for a while and then said: "Ms. Xiu, it's a blessing for the children to be favored by the immortal. I don't know how many people in the entire Black Mountain City can't even imagine it. This is a happy event. Come, come, have a meal. "As he spoke, he moved his chopsticks and served the two children with food.
After hearing this, Xiu Niang quietly wiped away her tears and said with a smile: "It's a happy occasion, come to Tao'er and Feng'er for a meal. I have cooked your favorite dishes for you. Come and eat more."
The two brothers Ning Tao and Ning Feng sat at the table, picked up their rice bowls, and quickly took the dishes brought by their mother. Ning Feng, who had always been carefree, seemed particularly quiet at this time.
After eating for a while, Ning Hutou said: "Xiu Niang, take out the jar of White Tiger wine I put there. I want to drink a bowl with my two sons today to practice for my son."
After hearing this, Xiu Niang got up, took out the wine jar from the cabinet in the back room, and poured a bowl for each of the men and herself.
Ning Hutou raised the wine bowl in his hand and said boldly: "Come and practice for my two sons. After drinking this bowl of wine, you will become real men. You must unite as one, you and I Mom is not with you, so your sister will be taken care of by you."
Xiu Niang also raised the wine bowl in her hand: "I also wish Tao'er and Feng'er a bright future."
After that, they touched the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp, showing the informal and heroic spirit of the children of the frontier.
...
Ning Hutou and his family had breakfast. Xiu Niang went into the house and held her daughter in her arms and walked out of the yard. Ning Hutou took out the prepared luggage and carried it for the two of them. Xiu Niang kept asking about brotherly unity. If your parents are not around, you should discuss more matters. Take care of yourself and take care of your sister.
When they came to the courtyard, Senior Brother Luo and others had been waiting for a long time. Seeing that everyone was ready, Senior Brother Luo, the leader, said: "Don't be sad, two laymen. Each of our sects will send disciples to guard this world, and we will recruit two people to join us. Sect, we will arrange this matter when we return. Just a few decades have passed away like a passing cloud to our monks. There is no need for you and your family to be so sad when we meet again."
After saying this, he said to brothers Ning Tao and Ning Feng: "Kowtow to your parents!"
Ning Tao and Ning Feng knelt down after hearing this and kowtowed three times respectfully. The distressed Xiu Niang quickly pulled them up. Ning Hu bowed her head and clasped her fists at the group of Taoists and said: "Three children, please ask a few more immortals." Take care of it!”
The embroiderer looked at the child in her arms, lowered her head and kissed her. She whispered something into the child's ear, and then made up her mind to hand the infant Ning Wuyou to the leader, Senior Brother Luo.
Senior Brother Luo took the infant Ning Wuyou and said, "The time has come!"
He directly used his magic power to hand over Ning Tao and Ning Feng to the two junior brothers behind him, and the group turned into streams of light and flew towards the sky.
The embroiderer standing in the yard looked at the people disappearing little by little. She could no longer bear the feeling of parting and fell into her husband's arms. Her tears were like broken threads. Ning Hutou kept crying with her big rough hands. Comforting his wife.
But it was said that Senior Brother Luo and his entourage led Ning Tao and the others towards the palace, while brothers Ning Tao and Ning Feng were so drunk that they lay down on the flying sword and fell asleep.
The young Taoist who brought the two brothers put their packages in the storage bag at his waist, and used his magic power to protect the two of them from the wind and cold.
The other people couldn't help laughing when they saw Ning Tao's performance.
...
When everyone returned to the palace, Taoists from other cities had already brought the boys whose aptitude for cultivating immortals was detected to move into the palace. Also brought back were the rosters of these boys, which recorded their names, ages, household registrations, and souls. Root qualifications and so on.
Of course, there are some Taoists who get nothing.
The two brothers woke up after a day's sleep. When they saw the majestic and magnificent palace in front of them, they were shocked and speechless.
In the following weeks, these children gradually became familiar with each other from being strangers at first. After all, most of these children were inexperienced and had pure minds.
Seeing so many friends and children, they are immersed in laughter and laughter every day, enjoying delicacies from the mountains and seas that they have never seen or eaten before, and fine food and clothing.
...
On this day, when Ning Tao, Ning Feng and several new friends were playing together, dark clouds suddenly filled the sky, followed by thunder. A moment later.
I saw a huge eagle-like strange bird with two heads, carrying a palace on its back, with thunder and lightning lingering on its body, floating in the dark clouds.
At this time, the Taoist priests who were sitting cross-legged in the side halls and rooms opened their eyes one after another and looked outside the room. Then they turned into a series of spiritual lights and stepped on their own magic weapons and floated in the air outside the hall. If you look carefully, there are hundreds of them. many.
The old Taoist who was talking to Qianhuang Li Jianyuan also looked outside the palace, looked back and said: "Your Majesty, the gate has been opened, we are leaving."
Hearing this, Li Jianyuan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Immortal, for clarifying my doubts these days. After all these years, I wonder if we will ever meet again?"
"There will be a day when the flowers will bloom again, and there will be no time to wait. When fate comes, we will meet again. In the past few days, I will help your majesty introduce the dragon energy. I am afraid that it won't be long before your majesty will ascend to the upper world, and then he will return to the upper world." I have entrusted you with a heavy responsibility, so please don’t refuse me until then!”
"Hahaha, I just borrowed the immortal's auspicious words, and I will surely live up to the great trust of the immortal."
"Hahaha, then thank your Majesty in advance and go ahead!"
...
At this time, the monks outside the temple had gathered all the children in the square in front of the temple.
The old Taoist left the palace and nodded slightly to Senior Brother Luo who was carrying Ning Feng and the woman in palace clothes holding Ning Tao's sister. Then with a flick of his hand, Ning Tao and another child flew forward, wrapped themselves in the magic weapon, and transformed into A stream of light flew towards the two-headed thunder eagle in the sky.
