"Haha... I didn't mean to scream, senior brother. I really couldn't control it, so I screamed again for some reason. Senior brother, please be more careful in the future." The man scratched his head in embarrassment.
When the two fought, the woman clearly lost, and the man had an overwhelming advantage.
"Okay, okay, stop fighting; Junior Sister Xun, you can't beat Chunfeng." A man appeared. This man looked ordinary and had a mustache. "You are all innately at the peak, and you almost entered." In the realm of a great master, why not just go down the mountain and travel around the world!"
Speaking of traveling around the world, the two of them had some thoughts in their hearts. They have been in the mountains for these years, and they have been back home for a year and a half, but they have only really traveled a few times.
"But... the true king hasn't come back yet." Kou Xun hesitated.
"The True Lord has a long lifespan. A hundred years may pass by just shutting up. We can't afford to wait. Sister Gu also said that it's not a problem for you to stay in the mountain all the time. There is no banquet in the world."
Yuan Tiangang has no intention of going down the mountain. He has not yet broken through Xiantian.
The first transformation of the Demonic Transformation has not been completed yet. After possessing the innate and flawless golden body, his combat effectiveness will be even stronger when he goes down the mountain.
Kou Xun and Li Chunfeng have both reached Xiantian, but he is still lingering in the first rank.
Zhenjun was right at the beginning, his decision would make him suffer for twenty years.
"Okay, we will go down the mountain tomorrow to explore. Hey, I really hope that the real king will come back now." Kou Xun sighed.
The few short years I spent with Zhenjun were the most unforgettable memories.
Unlike the world's terrifying memories of the True Lord, what they felt here was only warmth and nostalgia.
The two of them stayed on the mountain for a few more days, not knowing what they were waiting for. Perhaps they were looking forward to Xu Xuan's return.
The thatched cottage outside the bamboo forest.
Gu Hanwei was alone, and the sound of the piano was melodious.
There is a jade seal beside him, and there is a sparkling dragon ball on the top of the jade seal.
This is the Heshi Bi that Xu Xuan gave to her. Through this Heshi Bi, everyone can practice and perfect themselves.
This thing is usually used by three people in turns.
The most senior person on the mountain is Gu Hanwei.
Eighteen years have passed, and Gu Hanwei has become the most senior person on the mountain. Her appearance is not much different from that of a little girl, but her actual age is close to sixty years old.
Sun Simiao traveled to practice medicine and said he wanted to retire at the foot of the mountain. His father Gu Xiao couldn't stay. He didn't know where he went eight years ago.
Only Gu Hanwei didn't like the excitement and had been settling down at the foot of the mountain.
Soon, three people came here.
"Sister Gu!"
"Hello, Sister Gu!"
"Everyone, please sit down. Have you thought about going down the mountain?"
"After thinking about it, the two of us decided to go down the mountain. The senior brother will stay in the mountain for retreat. As for the He's Bi... let the senior brother use it." Li Chunfeng said.
Kou Xun said nothing, his attitude was acquiescence.
"No need, I'd better give He's Bi to you, I'll keep it for no use."
Yuan Tiangang shook his head and said he didn't need it.
The Heavenly Demon Transformation itself is slow, and the addition of Heshi Jade will be the same. It is better to practice it yourself, so that the foundation will be more solid.
Several people declined for a while, and finally decided to hand it over to Li Chunfeng.
The Grand Master is equally important. Currently, the Taoist sect is about to hand over. Kou Zhen gave birth to children relatively late, and he only has one child, Kou Xun.
Maybe it's because bloodline monks are generally less likely to have children than others.
The two said goodbye to Gu Hanwei and Yuan Tiangang, and then walked down the mountain.
The desire for freedom is the nature of living things, and soon they became excited about the unknown at the foot of the mountain. They could be seen leaping across the forest from a distance.
"Are you envious?" Gu Hanwei looked at Yuan Tiangang with a smile.
"I don't envy him. The disciple's personality is not suitable for fighting with others, but he is still suitable for living in seclusion in the mountains."
"No, you're not suitable."
"Sister Gu is wrong. There is nothing to miss at the foot of the mountain. It doesn't matter if you don't go down." Except for Master Lu Jing, Yuan Tiangang has no relatives, so he naturally has no nostalgia for the foot of the mountain.
"If you come back, leave first; if you live in seclusion, go down the mountain first. When you understand these, you will know why you live in seclusion."
Before a person comes back, he must first learn to leave.
Despite Li Chunfeng and Kou Xun's strong desire to go down the mountain, they might have to come back in the end.
And Yuan Tiangang has no desires and desires, and may be the one who loves the world the most in the future.
Yuan Tiangang didn't understand, and Gu Hanwei didn't force it.
A few days later.
A funeral is being held at the foot of the mountain.
The deceased was Kou Jie, who had offered five measures of rice and wine as a sacrifice.
Kou Xun cried so hard that there was an old man with gray temples standing next to her.
The old man was tall, muscular, with a goatee and wolf-like eyes.
This is the great master Kou Zhen, who is sixty-five years old this year.
The other old man beside him is Lu Jing, and the older one is Sun Simiao. Sun Simiao is over ninety this year.
A few people were not as sad as the juniors, just a little bit embarrassed.
At their age, they are already at the age where they know their destiny.
He is relatively indifferent to life and death, and has no taboos. Sooner or later, he will have such a day.
After attending Kou Jie's funeral, Kou Zhen called Kou Xun and Li Chunfeng.
"Yes, I can see that you have learned well in the mountains. From now on, Chunfeng will be in charge of the Baihu Mansion and the soldiers and horses of the Dao Sect. Xun'er will be in charge of the Haezhi Mansion and the prison."
"As you command!"
"Yes! Father!"
After that, Xu Xuan’s path of spreading began to appear on the stage of history.
"Do you have any news about Zhenjun?" Kou Zhen asked.
"No, we don't know where Zhenjun went. Does father have anything to tell you?" Kou Xun asked.
"Yes, I discovered the origin of martial arts. If you see Zhenjun, please tell me..."
Kou Zhen talked about the origin of martial arts in this world.
Martial arts began to flourish in the Eastern Han Dynasty. In the past, martial arts were just martial arts, and internal strength suddenly appeared later.
The first person in history to generate internal power is unknown, but it is certain that the person with internal power was an alchemist.
In order to find the legendary Immortal Cave, the alchemist accidentally walked into a mysterious space, glimpsed the reliefs on the wall, and understood the method of martial arts practice.
Some sects with long traditions usually pass on this secret through word of mouth.
Grandmaster is not the upper limit. If you practice to the highest depth, you can break the void and reach the mysterious space to enjoy immortality.
They don't know what the method of Shattering the Void is. Generally, when a grand master at the peak of his power disappears, the masters will default to Shattering the Void.
"Okay, if the real king comes back, I will definitely tell him the news." Kou Xun agreed.
Kou Zhen asked his men to take the two of them down to rest.
Government affairs were busy and his father had just died. Kou Zhen ignored his sadness and immediately devoted himself to work.
Regarding the treatment of fields, further details are needed. China is too big and a lot of land is vacant. The excess land can be converted into public land, which will be divided when there are new babies in the future, or it can be contracted to companies to share dividends for the whole village.
Daomen's business is extremely developed. Merchants contract some land to grow vegetables and fruits. They can't grow things on only one hundred acres, so there are no restrictions on them, but they need to pay rent and set a maximum lease period.
Officials work with the village to supervise.
This is what needs to be solved next, as well as other miscellaneous matters.
"Master Da Zhen, Master Lu invites you!"
The men came to report.
Kou Zhen put down what he was doing and came to another side hall.
In the hall there were Lu Jing, Sun Simiao, and even Gu Xiao, whom they hadn't seen for a long time. Gu Xiao was practicing the Zhu Yan technique and was still in his thirties.
"This time I'm calling you to discuss Shattered Void. Do you think there really is a fairyland? Senior Gu, you are well-informed. What do you think?"
"I have been looking for clues to the Shattered Void over the years, and have listened to many legends. My conclusion is that it may not be true."
If it was really Shattered Void, why did the alchemist find that space back then? That alchemist didn't even have any internal strength.
"The former peak grandmaster said that he was shattered into the void, but it would be better to say that he disappeared. He disappeared in a daze. There was no time to arrange everything. There was no auspicious spirit, no chickens and dogs ascended to heaven."
Lu Jing also expressed his opinion, saying: "I also think something is strange. Is Broken Void really going to the fairy world? Or is it in the legendary fairy cave? If so, what is the difference between it and being in jail?"
No matter how big the Immortal Cave is, it cannot be as big as this world. Even if it is the size of Chang'an City, staying there forever is no different from going to jail.
At least after Shattered Void, none of those masters returned, which is enough to prove that Shattered Void will never come back.
Everyone agreed that something was fishy.
But as a great master warrior, who can resist the temptation of further ascension?
Once they are exposed to the opportunity of Shattered Void, they will not let it go. This is human nature, or the exploration of the future.
Knowing that there is no return, I still have no hesitation.
"Perhaps only the return of the True Lord can solve this mystery." Gu Xiao stood up and said with great ambition, "I will go and see if there are legendary overseas fairy mountains or the elusive fairy cave."
Gu Xiao himself is the strongest person in Taoism. After these years of practice, his Taoism has reached its peak.
I am eighty-four years old this year. I can either wait and die of old age or give it a try.
"Take care, Kou Zhen, and prepare a boat for me."
"Why don't you wait? It's too dangerous to go to sea. I'm really afraid that you will disappear suddenly."
"Can't wait any longer!"
The true king has been in seclusion for too long, and he may not be able to wait until his death. He cannot rely on others for everything.
No matter what, he wants to find out the truth about immortality.
That night, Gu Xiao said goodbye to everyone.
