Ordinariness is the catalyst for the world of mortals. Only when the heart is as still as water can one be calm and tranquil. To be indifferent, do not stick to what people say is right or wrong, do not indulge in wealth and fame, break away from the noise of the world, regard joys, sorrows, honors and disgrace as passing smoke, do not be dragged down by fame and wealth, and do not have material desires.
Fettered by it, face life with a normal heart and pursue the reading ability of personality and the freedom of soul.
Blandness not only gives people a pair of eyes that can see everything, but also gives them the freedom and ease of a free person! Perhaps in this dark sky, blandness is the heart of Taoism, and the true meaning of it is what 'Li Xuan' wants to realize and achieve at this time
of!
After leaving the town, 'Li Xuan' walked along the small river. According to his idea, the river flows from west to east. Firstly, he can carefully understand the development experience of the Kingdom of God before he can completely let go. Secondly, he can also appreciate it by the way.
Take a look at the scenery along the coast, enjoy the scenery and understand the natural way of reproduction in the Kingdom of God. He is naturally willing to follow suit.
The river is quiet, like a bright mirror, reflecting green grass, trees and various wild flowers; it is also lively and lovely, with layers of waves rising in the wind and shining in the sun. Looking around, it is like a song
Beautiful music is playing, lingering around.
Walking on the river bank, thinking about the future of Yanran and others, 'Li Xuan' couldn't help but feel a little heavy in his heart. He didn't feel anything at all at first, but now that he really has to give up, he felt very uncomfortable.
Sure enough, it's better to be confused. When I was in the kingdom of God, I was so cool and heroic in the world, but now I'm walking hard, alone, lonely...
'Li Xuan' moved forward silently, gradually getting further and further away. Unconsciously, it was almost dusk. The river beside him began to widen and the water flow became more rapid. From time to time, he could see wooden boats slowly passing by. That was all.
After a while, I saw a big river lying in front of me, but I saw that the surface of the river was turbulent and huge waves were reaching the sky. It was like a magnificent scene of a big river going eastward.
Standing on the river bank, 'Li Xuan' couldn't help but be attracted by the magnificence and majesty of nature. As he was looking at it, he heard a noise in the distance. He looked for the sound and saw a group of men and women wearing raincoats and carrying fishing gear on their shoulders.
They gathered around a big rock along the river and argued about something, with sounds of crying and fussing from time to time.
"Looking at the appearance of these people, most of them are residents of this place, but why are they crying and making trouble by the river?" He stopped and listened for a while. Due to the noise of people, he did not enter here with the power of his will, so at this moment he was just equivalent to a god.
The incarnation of the master of the country, and without using his powers, he could not hear the reason with his ears. He became suspicious, so he stepped forward to find out.
As I got closer, the noisy and crying sounds became more and more clear, and I heard one of the old women crying: "Damn water monster, please give me the lives of my family of three..." She shouted, and she was about to scream.
She ran toward the surging river, but fortunately there were many people on the shore, so they caught her with all their hands and feet.
"Auntie, people cannot be resurrected after death, you... just have some sympathy!" A lean young man next to the old woman comforted her.
At this time, a man walked out of the crowd. He was about 20 years old. He was very tall and strong, and his dark skin looked like an iron tower. After looking around for a week, this man said to the crowd: "I think this water monster has probably attained enlightenment.
Otherwise, how can it cause trouble? If we don't get rid of it, not only will our way of life be cut off, but we don't know how many innocent lives will be lost in its hands in the future... How about we invite an immortal master to come and subjugate the demon?
Sample?"
As soon as the man finished speaking, he heard an old man of half a hundred years standing next to him say: "The Zhang family's son is right, but we in the eight villages within ten miles have not heard of any skilled immortal masters. This matter still needs to be done."
Think about it again, otherwise if you randomly hire someone with shallow Taoist skills and risk your life without telling him, I'm afraid that the water monster will be angered and the big guys will be implicated!" The old man's words were so sensible that everyone was stunned.
Having made up their minds, everyone sighed and looked at the rolling river water at a loss.
Just when everyone was almost desperate, they heard a voice coming from far away:
"Wandering to the green mountains and thousands of miles to the sky, the vast sky does not last for years; I wonder where the immortal family is, and the world of mortals asks about the immortal years."
Everyone looked for the reputation and saw a tall young Taoist man with flying robes and high spirits, coming slowly. At first he was only a stone's throw away, but in the blink of an eye he was close. Everyone looked at this scene with surprise and suspicion.
color.
The Taoist walked up to the crying old woman and asked, "Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, I just passed by this place and heard the eldest lady crying sadly. I don't know why?"
Without waiting for the old woman to answer, the expression of the old man who had spoken earlier changed. He took two steps forward and said, "I don't know what to call this Taoist priest. I'm going to be polite here. We were just worried about the water monster in the river that was causing harm to people."
And I’m worried, I don’t know if there is any way to subdue demons?”
The person who came was none other than 'Li Xuan'. He had probably heard it clearly from a distance just now, and he had already set out to get rid of harm. Coming here now was just a formality. Listening to what the old man said, 'Li Xuan' smiled.
He said: "Old sir, there is no need to be polite. I am a poor Taoist, Xuanyangzi. I don't know who the monster you are talking about is, and what abilities does it have?"
Hearing this, the old man sighed slightly and said: "It seems that the Taoist Master is not a local, so he may not know much about our place. The section of the river where we are located has a nickname, Nielong Cave. It is the deepest and deepest part of the river."
Dangerous place. There is a water monster at the bottom of the river. Speaking of this monster is also strange. Our ancestors have all lived by this river, and we have never heard of any rumors about water monsters. About ten years ago, one day, on the surface of the river,
Suddenly there was a strong wind, which made the sky dark and the earth dark, and the sun and the moon were dim. Many fishing boats working on the river were swept into the bottom of the river by the big waves. Fortunately, I happened to collect the net and went ashore at that time. I heard someone calling for help behind me. Waiting for me
When I looked back, I saw a monster with the body of a turtle and the head of a snake appearing on the river with its teeth and claws. The body of the water monster's back shell was very large, and it looked like several acres of land in length and width. When it turned left and right, it was huge.
Waves, wind, rain, thunder and lightning accompanied it. As long as any large or small ship around it touched the edge, it would break up and sink, and all living people and animals would be eaten by it. Alas! Now that I think about it, I still feel scared...
"
'Li Xuan' smiled after hearing this. In fact, before he appeared, he had already used his spiritual power to investigate. There was indeed a huge monster lurking at the bottom of the river, but it was not as described by the old man.
Powerful, it is nothing more than a natural heterogeneity, inheriting some talents, and being born with the ability to control wind and rain. When it comes to Taoism, I am afraid it is not as good as the monsters in the Four Symbol Realm, but even he is a little strange, why is the world in this country of God so powerful?
There have been some substantial changes in his surname, and there is even a trend of ancient and orientalization. Is this the result of the integration and reproduction of his own origin?
Putting aside these thoughts, 'Li Xuan' immediately smiled and said: "I thought it was something great, but it turned out to be an untransformed demon turtle. You don't have to be so pessimistic! I can get rid of this after I take a sample of the magic weapon and give it to you.
Malignant tumor." After 'Li Xuan' finished speaking, he spat out a little purple light from his mouth, stretched out his hand to catch it, and swung it into the wind, turning it into a purple sword about three feet long. He held it in his hand, but he saw purple lights moving back and forth, and the light
He is hesitant, and one can tell at a glance that he is not an ordinary person.
As soon as the sword came out, everyone's eyes widened and they froze on the spot.
Those of them who make a living by fishing have never seen such a mysterious thing before. Now that they saw it with their own eyes, the shock in their hearts was indescribable.
After a while, the old man came to his senses first. His face was full of surprise and he said excitedly: "The Taoist Master is really a god. I hope the Taoist Master will take pity on us people and help us get rid of this scourge!"
After saying that, he knelt down with a 'plop'. The people behind him also reacted and knelt on the ground following the old man.
"You don't have to be like this. It's my job to kill demons. Now that I'm here, I won't stand by and watch. Everyone, please get up quickly." After 'Li Xuan' finished speaking, he raised his hand and flicked out a soft force.
After everyone listened, they saw the Taoist priest in front of them wave his hand gently, and a soft energy came over them. Before they understood what was going on, they were lifted up one after another. While they were grateful, most of their hearts dropped.
I think, with this magic, it is possible to subdue demons.
Immediately, everyone burst into applause.
Seeing the joy on everyone's faces, 'Li Xuan' said calmly: "Don't thank me yet. I haven't known the water surname since I was a child. This person who kills monsters and harms has to choose a good water surname among you."
, only if you use my sword to enter the water can you succeed!"
After 'Li Xuan' finished speaking, his face looked embarrassed, but he was secretly happy in his heart.
It is not impossible to say that this cultivator is afraid of water, but it is a bit unrealistic for a person like him to be afraid of water. Not to mention that this is just a river, even if it is a place such as mountains of swords and seas of fire, as long as he is willing, he can
There was no hindrance back and forth. Of course, the reason why he said these words was because he had his own intention.
As soon as "Li Xuan" finished speaking, there was a commotion in the crowd. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't say a word.
After a while, the old man who just spoke coughed slightly and said, "Taoist Master, you don't know! We were all frightened by the water monster. Besides, none of these people are from a family of young and old.
If he is buried at the bottom of the river, the whole family will have nothing to rely on, so now if we ask people to go down to slay the demons, I am afraid no one will dare to go..." After the old man finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh.
After glancing at everyone, 'Li Xuan' pretended to be disappointed, put away his long sword, sighed and turned around to leave. After taking only two steps, he heard a thick voice from behind: "Taoist Master, please wait a moment, I am willing to go down."
Go to the bottom of the river, get rid of this scourge, and ask the Taoist priest to lend me the magic weapon."
With his back to the crowd, 'Li Xuan' had a flash of approval in his eyes, and then he slowly turned around and looked at the person who spoke. Behind the crowd, he saw a burly man standing like an iron tower.
He has a tiger's back and a bear's waist, tiger's eyes with cold stars, the heaven is round, the corners are square and square, the spirit is full of energy, and his eyes are resolute and resolute. Although he does not understand the art of cultivating the way of heaven, he still has an innate fierceness.
Looking at the man in front of him, 'Li Xuan' secretly praised: "What a body, it would be a pity if you don't practice Taoism!" Then he asked: "What is your name? As the old man said just now, you are brave
You have no fear, or no worries, otherwise how could you dare to do this?"
When the man asked, he quickly bowed and replied: "Taoist priest, my surname is Zhang. Because my water surname is good, everyone calls me Zhang Xiaolong." At this point, Zhang Xiaolong paused, his expression a little gloomy, and then
He said: "I have had no parents since I was a child, and I have only relied on the support of my neighbors to grow up to this day. To say that I have no worries is to say that in order to repay these villagers and elders, no matter whether I live or die today, as long as I can get rid of this water monster,
Even if I die, I will never complain."
"Okay, okay! What a strong man, but you have to think about it. Although Pindao's magic weapon can still cure the water monster, things at the bottom of the river are so unpredictable that I can't take care of them! If there is someone by then,
Three long and two short, I regret it!"
As soon as 'Li Xuan' finished speaking, he heard the old man say: "Yes, Xiaolong, this is too risky. I think it's better to wait for a few days. We all have discussed it, and then we can hire a water expert."
The Immortal Master is coming..."
"Yes, Xiaolong! Listen to Dad, you must not go down, it's too risky..." the old man started, and everyone started to persuade him again.
Looking at the sincere eyes of the villagers, Zhang Xiaolong's eyes gradually became moist; "Fellow folks, you don't need to say anything. I know what I am doing. If I don't kill the monster today, I, Zhang Xiaolong, will never go ashore."
Zhang Xiaolong's eyes once again burst with fiery persistence. Without waiting for anyone to speak, he turned around and said to 'Li Xuan': "Please give me a treasure, Taoist Priest! Whether I live or die, I have no regrets."
'Li Xuan' looked around, but everyone was hesitant to speak, and then said to Zhang Xiaolong: "Okay! This sword is extraordinary, you can just go into the water with this sword later, and do as I tell you. It will be fine."
, when the time comes, you just need to throw this sword into the water monster's lair, and there will be a wonderful response. Even if there are changes, I will try my best to keep you safe." After saying that, he turned his hand over, the purple light flashed, and the three-foot long sword appeared again.
To be continued...
