"However, if I didn't have this divination method, I'm afraid I would lose miserably..."
Liao Meng was not shaken by Xu Yue's words.
Xu Yue was not annoyed and said instead, "Then what do you think of my previous question?"
Liao Meng glanced at him and said, "Don't you already have the answer in your heart?"
Xu Yue asked, "I want to hear what you have to say and take a photo."
"As you said, the two can complement each other and reflect each other. While reading thousands of books, you can travel thousands of miles. The paper you get is always shallow. If you immerse yourself in a room and study hard, you will be like a child. He doesn't even know how to use the sword.
On the contrary, it is not advisable to just focus on traveling thousands of miles. Although you can get a lot of things that you can't find in books from what you see, hear, think and feel along the way, it is like a blind man trying to touch an elephant. After all, Kyushu is so huge, and there are many dangerous and desperate situations. I think you have encountered many dangers along the way, right? "Liao Meng looked at Xu Yue and said lightly.
Xu Yue nodded and said, "That's true."
Liao Meng continued, "If you don't have the support of strong strength, or you haven't read books, then where will the foundation for a long journey come from? So I think that when traveling a long journey of thousands of miles, it is better to read thousands of books. Reading is a good method. Just like your regulation on Putuo Mountain, doesn’t it say that every Buddhist disciple needs to be accompanied by a respected elder to recite sutras for a year in a sedan chair?”
Xu Yue sighed and said, "You are absolutely right. It is because of this regulation that I came out to travel around the world. Sitting in a sedan chair, I could not come out for a year, and I had to recite ten hours a day. The scriptures make people feel dizzy just thinking about it..."
Liao Meng looked at the sad look on Xu Yue's face, but there was silence for a while.
Come to think of it, this is the painful price to pay for becoming a person who is admired by everyone. Just like him now, once he fails to meet everyone's expectations, he has to endure the glare of everyone.
"Okay, it's almost time. I guess the elders of your sect will come to trouble me. I don't want to be invited to drink tea again." Xu Yue stood up with a smile and said, "I was originally I wanted to come and take a look at this peach blossom tree of your sect. I feel that reciting sutras under it will give me a different understanding. However, I didn’t expect it to be misunderstood by the disciples of your sect. Please explain it to the elders of your sect. As for today's matter, just say that I just came to chat with you, and I won't go around making irresponsible remarks. That's it. It's time for me to prepare to go back to Mount Putuo. You are a very strong opponent. I hope The next time we meet, you and I can compete with our full strength!"
After saying that, Xu Yue jumped up and disappeared at the end of the road.
After a while, several disciples led a white-haired elder over.
"Hey, where is that quasi-Buddhist disciple?"
"Who was here just now? Why is he gone now?"
Everyone was puzzled and could only look at the silent figure under the peach blossom tree.
After explaining to the elder, Liao Meng continued to sit under the peach blossom tree, seeming to be thinking about something.
late at night.
The moonlight casts a silvery glow, coating the entire peach tree with a silvery outline. Liao Meng is still sitting under the peach tree, with his back like a silent tombstone, singing a song that no one can understand.
A figure suddenly appeared behind him.
"Why are you here?" Liao Meng asked without looking back.
Wu Yun was silent for a moment and said, "I'm here to say goodbye."
Liao Meng was stunned for a moment, with a look of confusion on his face.
He could no longer guess the reason why Wu Yun came here, and what he just said made him even more confused.
Wu Yun had obviously anticipated Meng's doubts, and then said, "I'm going to break into the Demon Suppression Forbidden Tower."
Liao Meng's expression suddenly changed.
The Demon Suppressing Forbidden Tower was where Qingcheng Mountain captured some of the demon clan remnants after a long period of time after the human-monster war.
These demon clan remnants were suppressed, their demonic power was continuously extracted, and they had to endure extremely painful torture.
This tower has always stood in a hidden back mountain of Qingcheng Mountain. It is guarded by several powerful elders and no one is allowed to approach it on weekdays.
Although this tower is not high, the monsters imprisoned in it are not high either.
There are many, but it symbolizes the determination of Qingcheng Mountain and the demon clan to be incompatible with each other. It is also the supreme glory that Qingcheng Mountain gained in the war between humans and demons.
And this tower is also a torture tool used by Qingcheng Mountain to deal with some disciples or elders who have committed serious crimes!
There was once a disciple who, after making great achievements, secretly sold the top-secret martial arts rewarded by the sect. As a result, he was personally caught by the sect elders and finally thrown into the Demon Suppression Forbidden Tower.
The remnants of the demon race in the Demon Suppression Forbidden Tower would not easily let go of the human race that they finally saw. The disciple wailed inside for seven days and seven nights before he died.
It cannot be said that Qingcheng Mountain is ruthless and wants to send the human race to the demon clan for disposal. It can only be said that it is using the hands of the demon clan to deal with people who deserve to die.
For those who betrayed the sect, what reason did Qingcheng Mountain have to forgive him?
However, there are also geniuses who want to obtain more powerful power faster and choose to enter it to temper themselves.
They regard the Demon Suppressing Forbidden Tower as an extremely sharp knife, and they want to use this knife to polish themselves even more perfectly.
However, this knife sometimes stabs them to death!
From the day the pagoda was built to now, a total of one hundred and two disciples have applied to enter the pagoda. After review and discussion by the sect elders, one hundred and eleven have agreed to enter. Among them, four have come out alive after entering. , and among them, excluding those who are missing arms and legs, or whose cultivation is ruined, there are only twenty-one people, and excluding those who are haunted by inner demons, whose Taoist hearts are shaken, and who are unconscious, there is only one.
Those who are qualified to enter are all geniuses and monsters, but only a few people return in the end.
The shortcut to gaining power is so cruel.
The only ones left have greatly increased their cultivation and achieved rapid breakthroughs in realm.
It is said that the Great Elder Wu Fan is that one. He once personally entered the Demon Suppressing Forbidden Tower and practiced for seven days and seven nights. After returning, he directly broke through two minor realms!
However, even if the cultivation breakthrough speed is so amazing and so tempting, there are still very few people who dare to enter the Demon Suppressing Forbidden Tower. After all, the monsters in the Forbidden Tower are extremely ferocious. For ordinary people, stepping into the Demon Suppressing Forbidden Tower and It makes no difference to step into the gate of hell.
Of course Liao Meng also knew these things, but he didn't say anything to dissuade him, he just said lightly
Said take care.
Since a warrior chooses to embark on the martial arts path, he can only move forward.
The path is chosen by oneself, so what does it have to do with others whether it is full of thorns or smooth?
People with different paths do not seek to conspire with each other, and each of them follows his or her own will.
"I just hope that before I come out, you can continue to guard this mountain gate for Qingcheng Mountain!"
Wu Yun bowed deeply, then turned and left.
The reason why he chose to enter the Demon Suppressing Forbidden Tower was because it was the fastest way he could think of to improve his strength.
When Xu Yue blocked the mountain gate, he also fought with him, but he lost miserably. He was not Xu Yue's opponent. He failed to guard the mountain gate for Qingcheng Mountain!
When Meng and Xu Yue were fighting, he was also secretly cheering for them among the crowd on the side.
For this person who was once regarded as his opponent, this person who took away the Taoist identity he had always pursued, when faced with the invasion of foreign enemies and the sect's face was about to be lost, he chose to side with Meng without hesitation.
After all, they all have the same sect's glory behind them.
After all, he also loves this sect deeply.
But he also felt his own powerlessness. He had no reason to blame Meng for his failure, and he had no position to ask Meng what he should do.
He can only choose to become stronger for himself, so strong that he has the confidence to defend the sect the next time the sect faces a crisis!
"If we have a chance to meet again, I will definitely be able to take back my Daozi identity from you. Maybe, I can also prove it to him..." Wu Yun looked at the vast starry sky above his head, and couldn't help but think about it in his mind. A slightly older figure.
What would the man who always had a straight face towards him look like if he saw him walking into the Demon Suppression Forbidden Tower?
At the same time, in an ordinary pavilion in Qingcheng Mountain.
Wu Fanzheng looked at a document on the desk with a complicated look on his face.
It was sent by the Council of Elders responsible for reviewing and handling important events within the sect. It was a document written by a disciple to apply for entry into the Demon Suppression and Forbidden Tower.
The original process required the Elders Council to review whether the disciple's strength met the requirements and whether he might have evil intentions, and then just sign and stamp it.
There is no need to send it to him, and he has no right to interfere with these matters.
This document has been stamped with the seal of the Presbyterian Church, which means it has been approved by the Presbyterian Church.
However, the column that should have been filled with disagreement was still empty, and the Presbyterian Council's intention was very clear, to let him fill it in himself.
The handwriting on the document is clear and the font is square. It can be seen that the person who wrote this document was calm at the time and knew exactly what he was doing.
At the end of the letter, the name of the person signing the letter was written in large letters, and it could be seen from the handwriting that the name had been specially deepened several times.
This document was written by Wu Yun.
Wu Fan's mood was very complicated at this time. He came out of the Demon Suppression Forbidden Tower, and he knew very well how cruel the monsters imprisoned inside were, and how hostile they were to the disciples who came from Qingcheng Mountain to train.
But……
The lights in Wu Fan's room were left on all night.
