Pei Xihe did not expect that she would meet Shang Xuanyu and Zuo Jingshu when she entered the city. She also learned about this from the saintly girl of the Buddhist country. She thought about it in her heart and asked.
"Can I ask fellow Daoist Zuo, how long will this calamity last?"
The pure gold seal between Zuo Jingshu's eyebrows seemed to flicker. She slightly curled her lips and said with a slight smile: "It can be as short as ten years, or as long as a hundred years."
In fact, the Buddhist Kingdom sent her here, and Daqian naturally knew that it was just an exchange of interests, so Zuo Jingshu could stay in Daqian for a long time.
Pei Xihe nodded, cupped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you so much, fellow Taoist, for your generous words."
In this case, there is still some time to look for the vague opportunity in the 'southeast'.
Shang Xuanyu on the side snorted, frowned, pursed his lips, put his hands on his hips, and said sourly: "Okay, if I had known that you and Jingshu were so good, I wouldn't have come. I would be a disgrace if I didn't come." Dislike."
This gesture diluted the previous solemnity.
Pei Xihe smiled, hummed, and said, "I know there is a decent restaurant in this city. In that case, how about I come and entertain you two?"
There were two guards behind Zuo Jingshu, but as he got closer, Pei Xihe realized that the two men had bronze skin hidden under their clothes. They were clearly a different kind of agency puppet.
The two girls had no plans at first and were just watching the goings-on and the people in the city. Now someone invited them and they didn't refuse.
The three of them finally came to a grand restaurant, the high-end Zhuque, which was the same restaurant where Jiang Mingzhu had brought Pei Xihe for dinner. After all, she had only eaten at this restaurant.
Pei Xihe was secretly glad that Jiang Mingzhu had left with Tianzun Zhenfeng, otherwise she would have been extremely angry knowing that she was going to invite others to this restaurant.
Naturally, she has a lot of fairy crystals in her hands, golden bottles of wine, and a delicious banquet, where both the host and the guests are happy.
During the conversation, Pei Xihe also knew that following Kun Yue's actions, the former deputy state pastor, the first-level immortal, took advantage of the situation and erased the word "vice". Now he is in charge of Qiong Yu. state.
The Great Qian Pardon Order was issued, but within three years, the "Cangu" Immortal had vaguely touched the threshold of the second extreme realm, so he was in retreat in the Nazhou Mufu.
This kind of entry shows how convenient it is to use the official body to attract incense and merit, and this is why Daqian monks flock to it.
Speaking of this, Pei Xihe drank all the wine in the glass and smiled lightly.
“Convenience is convenience, but it’s just a borrowed thing.”
"The pardon officer's body is a ladder to climb the clouds, and it is also a curse to bind the body. Just like Kun Yue, after he defected, the mark could not be erased, so he was easily captured. But if he wants to erase it, he needs to use all the realms he has cultivated. Erasing it and returning it to the starting point may even cause serious damage to your vitality, and the gain outweighs the loss."
"Besides, cultivation is all about cultivating the mind and self. How far can you go if you borrow external forces to advance?"
Zuo Jingshu was born in Buddhism, and even though she wore her hair to practice, she did not drink alcohol, so she held up a cup of fragrant tea and smiled.
"Yes, when practicing true cultivation, the state of mind is created by the heart. The only way to follow the path is to walk step by step."
On the side, Shang Xuanyu drank a lot of strong liquor, his face was somewhat mellow and even more gorgeous, but his eyes were quite complicated at this moment, and he finally opened his lips to speak.
"I don't think so. All creatures in the world are high or low. Ants live like ants, and birds live like birds. Each one is safe and full of vitality."
"There are tens of thousands of cultivating beings in this world. Even though the aura of the Upper Immortal Realm is far from comparable to that of the Small Thousand Worlds, and the Golden Elixir Yuanying travels everywhere, most of them have to be sifted out by transforming into gods and bodies, returning to the void and overcoming tribulations, before they can step into the Mahayana. Once you enter the Immortal Path, there will be no one among them."
"There are so many geniuses in the world. Their talents are dull and their chances are gone. When the road ahead is cut off, they just change their path. What's the point of talking about the pros and cons? But all things move forward and try their best. Just for the sake of it.”
Shang Xuanyu picked up the wine bottle and drank another glass, looking more tipsy.
How could Helian Jiucheng miss the banquet? He had come out from the Huandi Pearl to eat hard. Now he was pointed at and laughed at by her, and he could only hear hehehe said: "You little vixen, thank you for those stinky men calling me a witch, this is the real thing." What a vixen."
When Zuo Jingshu heard this preface, her eyes trembled slightly, she put down the tea cup on the table, and sighed: "It's my narrow-mindedness."
She first became friends with Shang Xuanyu because she killed an evil cultivator named Ming Haizi. Then she discovered that this female cultivator had actually 'refined the sacred heart with the art of charm', and her heart was like a mirror, reflecting the dust and dirt.
Zuo Jingshu was born in a Buddhist country, and she wanted to cultivate a pure Buddha heart. Therefore, although the two women were different in realm and status, they could confirm each other's Taoism and accompany each other. They became more familiar with each other, and their friendship gradually deepened, so they walked together. now.
When Pei Xihe heard Shang Xuanyu's words, he clenched his hands unconsciously and frowned slightly.
'Everyone is safe and full of vitality', 'What is there to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of this? '
She felt as if something was stirred in her heart, hazy and not very real. Just like a horse in a gap or a fire in a stone, it disappeared in a flash. Instead of catching it, some gloomy energy rose vaguely.
Pei Xihe clenched the wine glass and swallowed it in one gulp. The spicy and mellow liquid stimulated his throat and suppressed the depression.
This episode passed very quickly. The golden-haired fox was very dexterous. While eating hard, he avoided Shang Xuanyu's "salty pig hands". After he was full of wine and food, he jumped lightly on Pei Xihe's shoulder. Re-entered the Huandian Pearl.
Shang Xuanyu touched the non-existent tears and sobbed softly.
"I'll touch it, I'll just touch it. This little vixen really doesn't know how to show appreciation, huh."
Pei Xihe glanced at her angrily.
"Although he is in the shape of a fox, he is still in the same realm of immortality as you. As soon as you reach out, you have to touch him to identify his male and female. It would be strange if he would ask you to touch him."
Shang Xuanyu pursed his lips and changed the topic with a haha.
After having enough wine and food, Pei Xihe collected some fairy crystals and was about to say goodbye.
Shang Xuanyu asked repeatedly: "Where are you going, Fellow Taoist Fuxi? If there is no place to stay, the cave that Jingshu and I rented is good."
Pei Xihe declined with a smile and said: "I am a bachelor of Taixue. I can't leave the state. The whole family has to sell my status as a bachelor. It's easy to get a cave. I plan to stay in seclusion for a few months."
The purpose of this retreat is to refine the hard-won fruit of the Mysterious Dao. No matter what Taishang Wuzheng said, Pei Xihe also wanted to give it a try given his temperament.
After talking to each other, they went their separate ways.
Zuo Jingshu and Shang Xuanyu were walking on the street. After staying for a while, Shang Xuanyu sighed and murmured: "She has changed a lot."
Zuo Jingshu lowered her eyes, the Sanskrit seal flickering slightly.
"Nothing in this world stays the same."
…
Shenxiao Tianyu, Chiyang Sect.
Tianqi sat cross-legged in the hall, not breathing in the spirit of the immortals to practice, but holding a scroll in his hand, which recorded the list of immortals that had been updated recently.
He has been ascending for more than a hundred years and has reached the third realm. His talent is considered extraordinary, but compared with these weirdos, it is only ordinary.
Tianqi couldn't help but think of the time when he used the door opened by the female cultivator with a hibiscus branch to truly break away from the confinement of the Immortal Temple world. He blew himself up and escaped into another small world with a narrow escape.
His foundation was severely damaged and his cultivation level regressed. It took him more than 180 years to rebuild to the late stage of Mahayana, and then he successfully ascended to the ninety-nine thunder tribulations.
However, Tianqi smiled bitterly. In the Donghuang Pavilion of Immortal Temple, he was the revered Supreme Patriarch. In this sect, he was just a disciple with acceptable talent.
If there is no merit, the road ahead will be bleak.
Suddenly, the hand that was turning his fingertips stopped, and his eyes widened, staring at the portrait on the book that was transformed by magic.
This face!
Tianqi suddenly felt hot in his heart.
After ascending for a hundred years, he also knew about the retreat of the Golden Crow clan, and even the Chiyang Sect was one of the forces that took action that year.
The Feiyan Xuanyu where Chiyang is now is the former Golden Crow territory.
"Only the Golden Crow can revive the hibiscus branches."
This is what he read in the ancient books of Chiyang Sect. Tianqi murmured softly, his smile deepening.
"Zhao Fuxi? Human race? Haha."
There was a sharp light in Tianqi's eyes. He practiced the path of fire and was in harmony with the Chiyang Sect, so he joined the sect. Among the fire paths, Golden Crow was undoubtedly the pinnacle.
Regardless of the grudges ahead, capturing the Golden Crow, drawing its blood, and understanding its method is a great opportunity.
"This is, merit!"
