Liang Shenglou looked up when he heard this, his eyes gradually became clear, but then he looked frantically at his whole body, and then he was stagnant on the spot. After a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "It seems that Taoist priest, you You are a land immortal with real magic power. I thought you were a reclusive senior."

Shi Xuan said calmly: "Pindao is far from being called an immortal, he just has some subtle Taoist methods. Mr. Liang, please answer Pindao's question first."

"If Taoist Master agrees to help me, I am willing to tell you everything I know." Liang Shenglou thought for a moment and looked at Shi Xuan with burning eyes.

"Ha, Mr. Liang, do you think you have the qualifications to bargain? I just don't want to use magic because it's troublesome." Shi Xuan said with a smile.

Liang Shenglou raised his neck slightly and said stubbornly: "Then please ask the Taoist priest to take action."

Shi Xuan shook his head, took the Yu steps, recited the incantation, and then pointed at Liang Shenglou in the distance, and two rays of light shot out of his eyes, falling on his head. Liang Shenglou's eyes began to be in a trance, and then he lost his mind and looked at Shi Xuan blankly. This enchantment technique has an extra good effect on such souls without physical protection.

Shi Xuan slowly asked: "Tell me, did you gain anything else when you obtained the "Book of Immortality"?"

Liang Shenglou replied word for word: "There is also a letter left by a Sanren in Guangyang."

"What was written in the letter?"

"The letter states that it is difficult to get started with the "Book of Immortality". Later, people must practice the following qi diagrams. This is the real value of the "Book of Immortality". Then it is mentioned that it feels like breaking through the physical barrier and breaking through The opportunity of emptiness is about to come, so I will find a secluded place to break through. No matter whether I succeed or not, I will not return to the world again, so I leave behind the "Book of Immortality" and do not want it to be lost. Finally, I leave behind a verse: "Three Brave and Vigorous Advances". Ten years ago, I went to Lingtai to find Guan Mountain.'"

Shi Xuan asked again and again several times, and only stopped when he saw that nothing was missing. It seemed that Guangyang Sanren basically didn’t understand anything after ascension. However, Shi Xuan was not too disappointed. After all, he had a complete plan. Getting the news from Guangyang Sanren was an unexpected surprise, but not getting it was normal.

After Shi Xuan withdrew the spell, Liang Shenglou slowly woke up and saw Shi Xuan standing calmly in front of him. Thinking of the dizzy incident just now, he said in a trembling voice: "What spell did you use on me? ”

"Haha, it's just a little ecstasy."

"Okay, okay, okay." Liang Shenglou said in despair, as if he was mourning for his heir.

Shi Xuan silently recited a spell, waved his hand to disperse the black smoke, and said to Liang Shenglou: "Okay, now that I know what I want to know, Mr. Liang, please do it yourself. I'll take my leave first."

Liang Shenglou rushed over, then knelt on the ground and kowtowed his head. This was not a very substantial feeling for the soul, but more of an attitude. He said in a hoarse voice: "Please. Avenge the villain! Please avenge the villain!"

Shi Xuan looked at him and said: "I am busy with many things and I still have to practice. I dare not agree to your matter."

Liang Shenglou continued to kowtow to beg for permission, but Shi Xuandu firmly refused.

Seeing that Shi Xuan's heart was as solid as stone, Liang Shenglou shouted loudly: "Didn't I say that you cultivators are kind to others and do justice for God? Aren't you afraid of being punished by God?!"

Shi Xuan sneered and said: "No one stipulates that I must help you. I help you as a good deed, and it is my duty not to help. I have a clear conscience. There is no need to scare me with divine punishment. If you want revenge, you should go find it yourself. Goodbye, just say goodbye!"

"Taoist Master..." Seeing Shi Xuan drifting away, Liang Shenglou's soul called a few times in the dark and damp corner before he said to himself in despair: "Why? Why..."

After Shi Xuan left the mountain forest, he rushed towards the official road. What happened after Liang Shenglou depends on God's will. If he can find the place of Yin Qi in time and has a strong obsession, he may not be without revenge in the future. If his opportunity is unlucky and disappears, that is his own business. In short, no matter what happens in the future, it has nothing to do with Shi Xuan.

At noon in early August, the sun was scorching and there was no cloud in the sky. Although Chuzhou City is the capital of the state, it is a famously hot place by the river. At this time, there are only a few pedestrians on the official road, and they all look weak. The crowds of people and busy traffic in the early morning and evening have long ceased.

The officers and soldiers guarding the city had already put on their bamboo hats, and then shrank as much as possible into the shadow of the city gate, cursing secretly in their hearts: You son of a **** captain, didn't you just win a few handfuls of money from him, so you arranged for me to go there at noon Guarding the city gate, there is nothing to worry about, I'm afraid I have to spend a lot of money on soup and medicine, I'm going to die!

At this time, he saw a group of people walking on the official road from a distance. They looked blurry under the sunlight. When he got closer, he discovered that they were pretending to be a young man. He had an ordinary face, a calm demeanor, and a unique personality. An extraordinary grace. The officers and soldiers guarding the city originally planned to go up and make a big deal, at least to get back the money for today's herbal tea, but seeing how popular the young man was, they hesitated. After all, the city gate guards need to deal with so many people every day, and they don't have enough eyesight. All of them offended people who shouldn't be offended, and ended up being extremely miserable. The rest were naturally people whose eyesight and experience were considered to be the best among ordinary people.

After hesitating in his heart for a long time, when this man came closer, the officers and soldiers guarding the city made up their minds and pinched themselves. Although they were not sure that he was a person of extraordinary origin, they were careful not to make any big mistakes, so they hurriedly stepped forward and said hello diligently. The Taoist was allowed into the city after only being charged two copper coins for entry.

When Shi Xuan entered Chuzhou City, he saw that the streets were wide and smooth, with wine shops, inns, and various shops on both sides. Many sycamore trees were planted on the roadside, forming a shaded place to escape the heat. Although the weather was hot and there were not many pedestrians on the road, Shi Xuan felt that among the cities he had traveled through, only Yangzhou Prefecture was better than it, and the rest were much worse. Of course, the major cities in the previous life are not included in the comparison.

After leaving the ruined temple, Shi Xuan walked and walked, and then took a boat upstream. It took nearly two months to reach the edge of Chuzhou. Although it took a lot of time, it was more comfortable than anything else.

After getting off the boat in Hanshui City, Shi Xuan spent another ten days walking to Chuzhou City, mainly to visit a famous Taoist temple between the two cities. Unfortunately, they were all deceptive people, so they could only play tricks. Little tricks.

Now that he has arrived in Chuzhou City, Shi Xuan plans to rest for a few days and adjust his body and mind to the best before setting off for Tongxuan Mountain, fifty miles northwest of the city.

After taking a look around, Shi Xuan chose a "Yunlai Inn". Because it has a quiet environment and a single yard for rent, it is really an excellent choice for a practicing person like Shi Xuan.

"Sir, please come with me. Room No. 1 is in front of you." The waiter of the inn led the way. He was short, thin but smart.

Shi Xuan nodded, laughing a little in his heart. He never thought that I would have the opportunity to live in Room 1 of Tianzi. After entering the backyard of the inn, we came to a secluded small courtyard with a plaque reading "Lotus Fragrance Garden". The waiter pointed at the courtyard and said: "Sir, this is our Tianzi No. 1 room. There are no other courtyards around, it is quite quiet, and there is a pond in the courtyard, full of lotus, and there is a fragrance every summer. Array."

While talking, Shi Xuan and Xiao Er had already entered the yard. Sure enough, there was a medium-sized pond on the left side of the yard. Lotus flowers were blooming all over the water. On this hot day, the sun was scorching, there were no people around, cicadas were chirping, and other plants around It's a state of laziness and listlessness. When I smell this fragrance, I feel extremely relaxed and happy.

After Shi Xuan sent away the waiter, he returned to the yard, under the big tree, smelling the fragrance of lotus flowers, closing his eyes and resting.

In the next few days, during the day, Shi Xuan shuttled through Chuzhou City. On the one hand, he collected information for his trip to Tongxuan Mountain in a few days, and on the other hand, he wanted to taste various delicacies in Chuzhou City, such as river fish. , steamed crab, etc. In the evening, Shi Xuan practiced boxing first, then visualized to strengthen his soul, regulate his breath and move his qi, without missing any of his practice lessons.

That evening, Shi Xuan walked slowly back to the inn while reminiscing about the fresh green onion aroma and endless taste of the river fish. As soon as he crossed the threshold and entered the lobby, he heard hurried footsteps behind him. Soon, a thin scholar walked around Shi Xuan and walked to the counter. Seeing this, the waiter hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Your Majesty, you are having a meal." Or stay in a hotel? ”

The thin scholar hurriedly stopped and replied: "Hello, my dear friend, I will stay in a hotel in Tongbu." Although the scholar is thin, he is not short, about seven feet tall, only a little shorter than Shi Xuan, although his face is pale , but he still looks quite handsome, but his eyes are a little dull.

When the waiter heard that he lived in Tongpu, some contempt suddenly appeared on his face, but after all, there were people coming and going in the lobby, and it was impossible to look at the scholar's face, so he still said kindly: "Then, may I ask your guest's name? Where is the guide? ”

The scholar didn't notice the waiter's contempt, and replied happily: "My surname is Ding, my first name is Mingde, my cousin is... my cousin... I haven't entered school yet, and I haven't turned twenty yet, and I haven't... yet." Later, looking a little ashamed, he took out the road guide from his arms and handed it to the waiter.

The waiter took the guide and said, "Sir, please wait a moment. I will show the guide to the shopkeeper and then come over to guide you to Tongpu."

Ding Mingde nodded gratefully, and then stood aside and waited quietly, because the shopkeeper had to fill in his name, place of origin, etc. in the account book according to the directions for later audits or government checks, which took a long time, and Ding Mingde seemed to be very familiar with this process, so while waiting, he took out an oil paper bag from his arms and opened it to reveal a cold steamed bun.

Ding Mingde looked at the steamed buns with a hungry expression and said to himself in embarrassment: "This is the only one left. We have to go to Tongxuan Mountain tomorrow. Should we eat it tonight or not?"

Shi Xuan was about to walk through the lobby and into the backyard when he suddenly heard the scholar mention Tongxuan Mountain. He walked back a few steps and passed by a man wearing a bamboo hat. He stood not far from the scholar and planned to listen. I heard what this scholar has to do with Tongxuan Mountain.
