The fifth day of May, Qingyang Mountain.
The green mountains are graceful, the mountains are warm and the flowers are thick, and the Funiu Mountains are connected to each other. Looking east when climbing the mountain, you can see mountains and rivers behind you, which is a beautiful scene of mountains and rivers.
In this infinitely beautiful scenery, there is a group of vicious men climbing up Qingyang Mountain along the steps.
The first, a skinny, middle-aged Taoist priest wearing a yin-yang Taoist robe, walked at the forefront of the team.
The Taoist looked straight ahead, and slowly walked up step by step towards the top of the mountain. He didn't have any aura on his body. From a distance, he looked like an ordinary Taoist priest.
"Senior Brother Zuo, there are rumors everywhere that Laojun Temple has obtained the secret of longevity from the Four Great Books. Will we be a little hasty in going to Laojun Temple this time?"
Behind the Taoist, a strong man with kite-shouldered jackal eyes and a cold and stern face stepped forward to catch up with the Taoist and whispered.
The skinny Taoist didn't say anything, but another tall, thin man with a black face and the shape of a swan beside him said dissatisfiedly: "Junior brother, why should we raise others' ambitions? Senior Brother Zuo has now become a Jian Gang classmate. What we should worry about is his Lao Jun Guan Cai." yes."
After the tall and thin man finished speaking, he turned to Taoist Zuo with a slightly flattering smile: "I heard that Song Wenshao from Laojun Temple died inexplicably. Now everyone in the temple is in danger, and it is impossible for him to be the opponent of Senior Brother Zuo. He must be watching the wind. And descend."
The skinny Taoist is Zuo Youxian, the current headmaster of the Taoist True Tradition branch of the True Preaching Taoist branch. This time he went to Qingyang Mountain just to seize the True Preaching Taoist monument that was lost ten years ago.
The strong man and the skinny man behind him are his two junior brothers respectively. Ma Dongxiao, who has no food and clothing, and Manchu prose, who is full of disasters.
When Ma Dongxiao heard Man Wensan refuting him, he looked at Zuo Youxian's expressionless face and said quickly: "That's right, that's right. Senior Brother Zuo has achieved great success. Laojun naturally ran away looking at the wind. Junior Brother, I'm talking nonsense. Senior Brother Don’t be surprised.”
After saying that, he slapped himself twice in the mouth, with a look of fear in his eyes.
Zuo Youxian was usually very cruel to people who were not on the same team as him in the sect, and he was also quick-tongued, so why did he have to say such unpleasant things today.
Perhaps because he was approaching Qingyang Temple, Zuo Youxian didn't want to lose his grace, so he smiled at Ma Dong who was sweating profusely and said, "I only stayed in seclusion for a year, why did Song Wenshao die?"
Ma Dong smiled and saw that Zuo Youxian did not blame him. He breathed a sigh of relief and rushed to say: "Laojun Guan did not announce the cause of death, and even the funeral was simple and there was no fanfare. It is probably because Song Wenshao died and there was no expert in charge, so he lacked confidence. "
】
Zuo Youxian sighed: "It's a pity. I have achieved great success. The person I want to fight the most since I came out of seclusion is Song Wenshao. Why don't you give me this opportunity?"
Ten years ago, Zuo Youxian was defeated by Song Wenshao by one move. Now he has become a Jian Gang classmate. He is proud and ready to defeat Song Wenshao severely in the battle to seize the monument and humiliate this once powerful enemy.
Who knew how he would not be annoyed when he heard the news that Song Wenshao was dead after leaving seclusion.
"Song Wenshao is dead, Laojun Guan, who is the master now?"
Manwensan said: "Some disciples saw Demon Dao Bichen presiding over the affairs in the mountains. Song Wenshao's second disciple Mu Jiangyin and third disciple Liu Qingshan both appeared near Luoyang."
Zuo Youxian nodded: "Then the master of the temple is Bichen."
When he thought about it, Bichen, as the eight masters of the Demon Sect, was at the bottom, but it would not be a problem to suppress Mu Jiangyin and Liu Qingshan.
Thinking that Song Wenshao was dead, he suddenly felt that this trip to Qingyang was boring.
If you can't show off your magical skills in front of your mortal enemy, why not walk at night in brocade clothes?
Seeing that he was halfway up Qingyang Mountain, Zuo Youxian suddenly came to his senses and said, "You just said that Laojun Guan has obtained the Secret of Immortality, one of the Four Great Books?"
Ma Dongxiao hurriedly stepped forward, his tall body looking particularly humble in front of Zuo Youxian: "Brother Zuo, during your retreat, many major events have happened in the world. The Secret of Immortality has returned to the world. I heard that even inside the Holy Sect, there are After hearing the news, there are many people who want to get this wonderful book."
"Tell me the important point." Zuo Youxian frowned when he saw that Ma Dong smiled and talked for a long time without getting to the point.
Ma Dongxiao did not dare to show off, and said quickly: "The secret of longevity fell into the hands of two gangsters, and now these two gangsters are in Laojun's temple."
Zuo Youxian kept walking and asked: "Shouldn't the news about this kind of thing be blocked? Why is Laojun Temple so famous all over the world?"
Ma Dongxiao smiled coquettishly: "I don't know about this. Now the news has spread within the Holy Sect. Many sects are ready to take action. Even people from the Yingui Sect may come. After all, it is the secret of longevity."
"Yingui Sect?" Zuo Youxian raised his right eyebrow, a little surprised: "Did even Zhu Yuyan be alarmed?"
Ma Dongxiao pushed aside a branch blocking Zuo Youxian's path by the steps, shook his head and said, "I've never heard of that, but it's the secret of longevity. It's not surprising that the Queen of Yin is tempted. I can't explain why even the Evil King There will be a scramble.”
After listening to this, Zuo Youxian's eyes turned gloomy: "Is the news reliable?"
Man Wensan stepped forward and whispered: "It's been said so outside. Nine times out of ten it's true."
A flash of blood suddenly appeared on Zuo Youxian Kugao's face: "In that case, let's go up and see if the Secret of Immortality is there."
If he can obtain the Secret of Immortality, his martial arts may be able to go a step further and break through the innateness. In this case, the Taoist True Tradition will become the True Tradition, and he may not be unable to compete for the position of the first person in the Demon Sect.
A group of people climbed Qingyang Mountain and found that Qingyang Temple, which used to be deserted, was now overcrowded.
Li Zhenzong, Bichen, Mu Jiangyin, and Liu Qingshan, the mainstays of Laojun Temple, all came to the mountain for today's battle between Laojun Temple and Taozu True Tradition to seize the stele.
Zuo Youxian glanced around and recognized everyone's identities, and then his eyes fell on Bichen who was standing in front.
As the master of Laojun Temple, Zuo Youxian was not supposed to be here. Zuo Youxian was a little confused about Bichen's intention.
"Master Zuo is here to welcome you, and Bichen is far away to greet you."
When Bichen saw Zuo Youxian and his entourage, he stepped forward and bowed his head.
"No, it's not the first time we've seen each other. Why are we doing those cliché things?"
Zuo Youxian sneered. This was not the first time he had dealt with Bichen. When he saw Bichen's demeanor, it was very different from the gloomy look he had seen a few years ago. It was obvious that his martial arts had improved greatly. look like.
He secretly thought to himself, could it be that since Pichen took over as the master of the temple, he has gained a lot from practicing "Shangqing Huangshu Duoyi", which has led to great improvement in martial arts.
But now that he had mastered the Taoist True Tradition, Jian Gang Tongliu, which no one had learned for hundreds of years, it was just when his self-confidence exploded that he didn't even take Bichen in his eyes.
Bichen smiled slightly, didn't mind, and stretched out his hand to signal Zuo Youxian to follow him inside.
Zuo Youxian ignored Mu Jiangyin and the others beside him and led them directly into Qingyang Temple.
After entering the temple, I discovered that the interior of Qingyang Temple had more than tripled in size. The original narrow square was widened to accommodate thousands of people, and a brand new hall was built behind the square to enshrine the statue of Taishang Laojun.
"I haven't seen you for a few years. This Qingyang looks quite impressive."
Zuo Youxian looked at it for a moment and found that there were already many people in the square, many of whom were familiar faces from the Demon Sect.
In front of the main hall of Qingyang Temple, a young man stood tall and tall, wearing a purple Taoist robe. Standing in front of the main hall was a stone tablet engraved with ancient pre-Qin characters. It was the original Taoist tablet passed down from ancient times by True Taoism. .
Zuo Youxian was a little surprised when he saw Bichen coming up to the young man. He bowed respectfully and said, "Master, the Taoist ancestor's true biography has been brought to you by Zuo Youxian."
