Chapter 1 Downhill
Daxia Kingdom, Qianluo Peak!
On top of a towering mountain peak, an old man with gray hair and beard sat cross-legged. He was thin but had an air of immortality, exuding a compelling aura.
In front of the old man, stood a young man about twenty years old. The man had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, fair skin, and a pair of dark and deep pupils that seemed to be able to pierce people's hearts.
The man is very handsome, no worse than the idol star of a certain country. The so-called stranger is like jade, and the son is like no other in the world.
"Old man, I'm not lazy today, how do you want to hit me?"
At this time, Lin Yu held a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth, leaned against a big tree with his hands folded, glanced sideways at the old man who had his eyes closed to relax, and a soft hum came from his nostrils.
Lin Yu had no respect for the old man who was supposed to be his master.
"Lin Yu, master won't hit you today. You can't be beaten anymore. I called you here today to let you go down the mountain!"
The old man slowly opened his eyes, with a bit of reluctance in his turbid eyes. He didn't know whether it was for Lin Yu or for this world.
When he heard the word "down the mountain", the careless Lin Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, he stood up straight and looked at the old man in disbelief.
"Old man, are you really willing to let me go down the mountain?"
There was unconcealable excitement in his words, and Lin Yu's heart beat faster. Ten years, ten years later, he could finally leave this ghostly place isolated from the world.
The old man nodded and said: "I knew you would be happy, but I didn't expect you to be so happy, without even a little bit of reluctance? I have taught you for ten years, and before I came down the mountain, you had nothing to say to me."
Master said?"
When he brought the little boy up the mountain, the old man promised him that as long as he practiced with him faithfully for ten years, he would let him go after ten years.
Now, ten years have passed, and my end is approaching. Fortunately, my cultivation has finally been passed down by someone.
At the first glance, he knew that he had chosen the wrong person. Ten years later, he became more certain of his thoughts.
"No, you taught me for ten years, but you also beat me for ten years. And don't forget, how did you lock me up in the mountain when I wanted to go home? I already respect you very much if I don't deal with you.
, we’re even!”
The old man responded to Lin Yu's indifferent words. Not only did Lin Yu's face show no trace of reluctance, but he was very excited, as if he was about to go down the mountain.
In fact, it's not that he doesn't want to deal with the old man, but that he knows that no matter how hard he practices, he can't beat this old guy, otherwise he would have gone down the mountain long ago.
"Yeah, we're even!"
The old man looked at the sunset on the horizon and sighed softly.
"Pfft!"
Just when Lin Yu was about to leave, a stream of bright red blood spit out from the old man's mouth, and the old man instantly turned pale.
"Old guy, what do you mean?"
Lin Yu paused, slowly came to the old man's side, and helped him up with one hand.
"Lin Yu, I'm going to die soon!"
As the breeze blew by, the old man's eyes became increasingly cloudy, and he held Lin Yu's hand tightly.
"It's... it's fake. Are you kidding me again? You ate all the rabbit I roasted yesterday and didn't even leave a leg for me. Now you're telling me you're going to die?"
Lin Yu neither wanted to believe it nor dared to believe it. After all, this was not the first time that the old man had played tricks on him.
"Before going down the mountain, I have three things to give you!"
The old man made no excuses, stretched out his trembling palms to open the baggage on the side, and took out three things inside, an ancient clock the size of a palm, a ring, and a photo.
The Donghuang Bell is an ancient artifact. It can be big or small. It can swallow everything in the sky. It can swallow everything in the five elements.
Najie, a space storage.
As for that photo, it was of a cute-looking little girl. Lin Yu didn't know who this little girl was, but he just thought she was very cute.
"Her name is on the back. Find her for me and take care of her!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man's hand that was holding Lin Yu loosened his grip and fell to the ground. His eyes were closed, and there was no longer any hope.
"Old guy, don't make trouble. You won. Why don't you get up quickly? I'll come back to see you in a few days. Old guy...Old guy...Master..."
The old man left. After being his apprentice for ten years, Lin Yu didn't even know his name. He just called him the old guy. Now he finally called him master, but it's a pity that the old man will never hear him.
A drop of crystal tears fell from the corner of his eyes, and all the resentment in Lin Yu's heart towards the old man disappeared at this moment.
Looking at the old man's still warm body, Lin Yu's thoughts returned to ten years ago...
"Wow, kid, it's incredible. You have a spiritual light flying out from the Tianling Cap. Did you know that? You have a strong body and muscles at such a young age. You are a Taoist wizard that you only see once in a century. Come with me, I will guide you to become an immortal.
The top of the world, proud of the world!"
"I don't want to, my parents don't let me talk to strangers, and grandpa, you are so dirty!"
"You have to go today, or you have to go if you don't want to go!"
The old man couldn't help but force Xiao Lin Yu, so Xiao Lin Yu was dragged up the mountain by the old man. Every time Xiao Lin Yu cried and wanted to go home, he would be beaten severely by the old man.
However, after each injection, the old man would carefully apply medicine to him.
As he grew older, Lin Yu simply stopped crying. Every time he tried to escape secretly, the old man would catch him and beat him.
At first, Lin Yu just did some physical work in the mountains every day, chopping wood and carrying water. Later, the old man taught him immortal magic and Taoism. Every time he was lazy when working or practicing, he would still be beaten.
It can be said that Lin Yu spent his childhood being beaten severely by the old man, and then soaked in a medicine vat.
Knowing that escaping was not possible, Lin Yu wanted to rely on hard power to defeat the old man and leave in an honest manner, so he practiced martial arts very hard.
His talent is very good, coupled with hard training, martial arts, Taoism, formations, and refining medicine, it is a pity that no matter how fast he improves, he can never surpass the old man.
Ten years have passed like this!
…
Lin Yu found a place with good feng shui in Qianluo Peak and buried the old man. As for the inscription, it was engraved: Master Lin Yu's tomb of an unknown old man. Monsters and monsters are not allowed to disturb him!
Looking at the tombstone erected by himself, Lin Yu showed a bitter smile on his face, showing loneliness, reluctance, and mockery of fate.
Lin Yu drank half of the wine in the flask in his hand, poured the other half in front of the tomb, and murmured: "Old guy, it's not me who's leaving this time, but you who left first. You cherish the journey, and I won't come back to see you in the future."
is you!"
I added another sentence in my heart: Seeing it will only increase the sadness!
Carrying the baggage on his back, Lin Yu turned around, tilted his head, revealing his handsome profile, and said, "I really have to leave this time. You have become a ghost, so don't catch me back again."
, I will remember what you told me, farewell!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yu's figure flashed and turned into an afterimage that flickered among the endless peaks. Its speed was beyond the ability of the naked eye to capture and exceeded human limits.
If someone sees this scene, they will definitely exclaim: I saw a ghost in broad daylight, this is so unscientific!
This is a modern era where Taoists are withering, science has replaced everything, and anything that goes against convention is unscientific.
However, in this world, there is a kind of person called a Taoist. What is a Taoist?
