There is a deep valley in Cangyan Mountain, the back mountain of Cangyan Sword Sect.
Although it is late autumn, there are still lush flowers and plants in the deep valley.
The deep valley is very open, and two streams converge to form a lake at the bottom of the valley. The lake reflects the mountains, water, and blue sky, like a mirror.
The warm breeze blows on your face, carrying the fragrance of flowers, which makes you feel relaxed and happy.
Not far from the simple dock by the lake, there are several wooden houses of different styles. At this moment, two men are standing next to the wooden house.
The man sitting was dressed as a farmer, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, an unshaven beard, and long hair hanging casually on his back. He was almost leaning on a heavy wooden chair, setting up an awning with his hands, looking towards the lake at the bottom of the valley in the distance. Go, it seems that the spirit is relaxed, but in fact, the whole body seems to be tense and very nervous.
Standing next to him was an old Taoist priest with a slightly curvy figure and extremely thin body. The old Taoist priest wore a round hat and a white and curly beard. He covered most of his mouth. The wrinkles on his face were like tree bark. His eyes seemed open and closed, as if he was half asleep and half awake. He stood there motionless, like a dead tree.
Suddenly, there was a strange wind in the quiet valley, blowing through the grass and flowers, the trees swayed, and the leaves rustled as if they were alive. The middle-aged man who looked like a farmer immediately sat up straight. He even leaned forward and looked towards a slender figure standing upright in the middle of the lake.
The old Taoist priest just opened his eyes slightly, glanced at the lake, nodded slowly, and then closed his eyes again, when he heard the people around him asking questions.
"Old man, is this about to start?" The middle-aged man seemed to find it inconvenient to block the sun with his hands, so he stretched out his hand.
, a banana fan was taken into his hand, and then held in front of his forehead. This time, he could see it more clearly.
The old Taoist priest replied dryly, "Hmm."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man turned his head and glanced at the old Taoist priest, and then looked at the lake with all his attention, "Did the old master break through from the lower seventh realm to the upper seventh realm like this?"
The old Taoist priest's hazy eyes glanced at the lake again. The figure in black was motionless, but the wind and clouds that were rising between heaven and earth were surrounding her, slowly rotating around. There was a mysterious and mysterious aura that filled the entire valley, and the grass and trees were filled with it. He responded, "Prince, don't be surprised. It's been a long time and I really can't remember it. Hmm, it seems to be different."
The middle-aged man called the prince was Li Hongyi, the prince of Dading's former dynasty who he had seen in the valley when Luochuan first came to Cangyan Mountain.
At this time, Li Hongyi concentrated his attention and did not miss any disturbance in the valley. He seemed to want to carve everything that happened in front of him into his heart. "I once heard someone talk about the so-called six-to-seven process of breaking through the middle three realms into the upper three realms." The barrier is the most difficult threshold to cross on the road of spiritual cultivation. It is also the biggest barrier that separates immortals from the mortal world forever. Once you pass it, your happiness and longevity will be extended, and the world will change. All words and expressions will be indescribable changes. The old man thinks that this barrier is the most difficult one to cross. How is this woman's current situation?"
The old Taoist priest lowered his eyes and said slowly, "The prince's obsession with the upper three realms is still the same as before. If it remains like this, the sixth to seventh level will probably be a life-and-death obstacle that is difficult to overcome no matter what. .”
Li Hongyi frowned when he heard this, but then he felt relieved and still stared at
He smiled at every change on the lake, "The old master is still the same as before, refusing to teach me even a little bit."
The old Taoist priest shook his head, "Back then, the old Taoist used five years of life as a basis to predict the prince's fortune when he came down the mountain. The fortune was very bad. That's why he persuaded the junior brother to let you stay. After that, he used five years of life to predict another fortune. Hexagram, it was a serious disaster, so he refused to say more than a word to the prince. The old Taoist knew that this move forcibly interfered with the fortune of heaven and earth, which was against the way of heaven, so he locked himself in the back mountain for fifty years. Now that he goes down the mountain and sees the prince again, I am afraid it will be the same In the last moment, there’s actually nothing left to say.”
Li Hongyi was startled when he heard this, then turned his head and looked at the old Taoist priest in front of him for a long time, then took a deep breath, and then laughed, "It turns out there is such a story, so in this last scene, the old Taoist priest wants to Teach me what?”
The old Taoist priest said calmly, "For the last time, what I want to say to the prince is still," he lowered his arms and bowed slightly, "Don't practice, don't go down the mountain."
Li Hongyi frowned and said with obvious displeasure, "Does the real person believe in his own divination method so much? I heard that even Lu Zu did not dare to be completely sure about his divination. He once said that it is difficult to understand the way of heaven if it is not followed. The wonderful thing is, do you feel that you have entered the way of heaven and can see all the mysteries in heaven and earth, or that you have reached the pinnacle of the way and no one can deceive you?"
The old Taoist priest was silent for a long time this time.
At this moment, the changes in the valley reappeared. The whirlwind that was originally blowing like a breeze suddenly began to accelerate. There was a loud sound of wind in the entire valley. Leaves and fallen flowers were mixed with the sand and gravel rolled up in the opposite direction. The sky, the sky and the earth were dark for a while, and the years were quiet
The blessed land in the mountains has turned into a chaotic and chaotic world!
Li Hongyi's face was full of surprise. He inserted the banana fan into his arms and held it down. He reached out and pressed down on the armrest of the seat, pressing the entire chair three points into the ground. Only then was he able to sit firmly in place again.
The old Taoist priest still looked tired and had not woken up. He just raised his eyes to look at the figure that could no longer be seen clearly in the middle of the lake, and suddenly sighed, "It turns out that I have embarked on such a path. It turns out that this is it. The future life is to be feared."
There was a faint light in Li Hongyi's eyes, but he could not see through the whirlwind in front of him. Hearing this, he turned around and asked, "What kind of path?"
The old Taoist shook his head silently and did not answer the question, but returned the topic to the previous question, "Since fifty years ago, the old Taoist has never walked half a step down the back mountain, but he has never stopped paying attention to the prince. However, in the past fifty years, the prince has advanced from the second level to the sixth level of perfection. According to the prince's original talent, it is definitely not possible at this speed. The matter of talent has always been destiny and cannot be changed. So the prince has this The only way to enter the country is through this valley."
Li Hongyi remained silent.
"The prince talked to the old Taoist about the way of heaven, and the old Taoist also talked to the prince about the way of heaven. The way of heaven is constant, and every drink and peck is a predetermined decision. What the prince gains in this valley is like a castle in the sky. It is not yours. If you force it, it will be a disaster. "The old Taoist priest looked around and said, "Trapped in the Dragon Valley, trapped in the Dragon Valley, we have indeed trapped some young masters in the past, but this is the first time we have trapped Prince Dading. Maybe there is someone behind this. , but since the prince has been in this valley for fifty years, why not
In line with this, wouldn't it be transcendent to escape from the world? "
Li Hongyi looked up and saw that there was still a piece of blue sky in the whirlwind, which made him feel like he was born at the bottom of a well. "The way of heaven is permanent. If there is such a thing as the way of heaven, what will happen to me, the majestic Prince Dading?" Falling into this trapped dragon valley and living like this? Are you people who trapped me here following the way of heaven, or are you violating it?!"
The old Taoist priest was silent again, then suddenly raised his head, his gaze towards the lake was no longer cloudy for the first time, and he murmured to himself, "What a cruel girl..."
