The sky is clear and clear, the clouds are rolling and relaxing. Two of them are very strange auspicious clouds. The faint light shield removes the strong wind and the strong energy. There are two people standing on them. One of them is Tian Suanzi wearing a Tai Chi Bagua Taoist robe.
His hands were calm, and the other person was Xue Chen, but he had a worried look on his face.
It turned out that Xue Chen hesitated for a long time and decided to come to see the mysterious Gu Yuan Immortal. After all, the other party was too powerful. If he really wanted to catch him, he would not be able to escape. Moreover, the fortune teller in front of him was an immortal immortal. Although
It looks peaceful and natural, but if he really takes action, Xue Chen probably won't be able to escape.
After thinking about it comprehensively, he decided to pay a visit, and there was still a hint of extravagant hope in his heart: "If it is really as what the ancient Taoist friend said, I may have a great opportunity this time!"
His heart was filled with expectations at one time, and at other times he was deeply worried, fearing that the immortal would be moody and follow Tiansuanzi in a confused mood.
When they arrived at the center of Gu Yuanzhou, Tian Suanzi stopped in vain, and Xue Chen also stopped, secretly guessing: "Is the Immortal Gu Yuan here?"
Looking down, the mountains are entangled like winding yellow dragons. They are ancient and vast, but the spiritual energy is not strong. There are no monks activities, and ferocious beasts often appear. It is not suitable for ordinary people to live. It is quiet and uninhabited. But the Wuxiang God
After taking a closer look, I found that there were faint distortions of the formations, which were consistent with the texture of the rocks and the flow of clouds and mist. However, the maze formations were arranged so that ordinary gods could not detect them at all.
Then, Tian Suanzi formed a seal with his five fingers, and a passage emerged from the rolling clouds, and then he escaped into it, and Xue Chen hurriedly followed. When he passed through the maze, green mountains and green waters suddenly appeared in front of him, with grace and tranquility, and the chirping of insects, cicadas, and birds.
The sound of gurgling water is a rare natural scenery.
But he was still confused in his heart: "There is still no strong spiritual energy. Immortals also have to swallow the essence of heaven and earth to communicate with the laws of heaven and earth? Why did the ancient ancient immortal choose this place?"
"Follow me!" Tian Suanzi said to Xue Chen, and then walked onto a quiet path. The weeds were thick and the path was light. It was obvious that there were very few people walking around.
After walking for half a quarter of an hour, they climbed over two hills. The two people who were walking quickly came to a short hillside, which was full of green bamboos and had several bamboo houses built. Xue Chen saw a clicking sound in the fenced yard
sound.
Looking over, he saw an old man digging the ground with a hoe. He was only wearing an undershirt. He discovered more keenly that the old man was panting and sweating from his forehead. He had no magic or fairy power at all.
Just a mortal.
"Uh!" Xue Chen was completely stunned. He couldn't believe that the Ancient Yuan Immortal actually looked like this. He had thought about the Quanzhen Taoist priest with immortal style, the cold-faced old weirdo, or the majestic and domineering mysterious master.
But I never thought of him as an ordinary old man from Chu.
And then, Tian Suanzi's reaction made him even more speechless.
But Tiansuanzi hurriedly ran over, took off a coat hanging on a bamboo branch, put it on the old man, and said with concern: "Master, don't catch a cold!"
"Haha!" The old man raised his head and smiled, showing a few teeth: "It's common to get sick when you get old, it's okay!"
Xue Chen frowned, and he was so confused in his heart! He was screaming in his mind what was going on? Tiansuanzi actually said that his master might be sick? Who can answer it for me?
"You are Xue Chen!" Suddenly the old man turned around and smiled at Xue Chen: "You have doubts in your heart, right?"
Although it was a question, Xue Chen heard the affirmation from the tone, and was frightened in his heart. He immediately started to turn his Wuxiang Divine Heart, his heart was as still as water, and he did not dare to think too much. He nodded calmly and said: "It is this junior who has met the Ancient Yuan Master.
!”
"Come in!" the old man said, putting down his hoe, then turned and walked towards the house.
Xue Chen looked at the hunched old man, his calloused hands resting on his waist. The doubts in his heart were getting deeper and deeper. No matter how he looked at him, he thought he was an ordinary old man.
Immediately, he walked into the fence courtyard, where the old man was sitting on the stone pier. Tiansuanzi was pouring water with an ancient tea set, warming it with magic power, and handed it to the old man respectfully.
The old man squinted his eyes and drank a few sips, smacked his lips and enjoyed it, and then said: "It's better to have an apprentice to serve you. When you are old, you don't even bother to get firewood!"
Tian Suanzi didn't say anything and just stood there respectfully. Xue Chen naturally didn't dare to sit down when he came over, so he stood a few feet away and waited quietly.
The old man looked at him while drinking tea, his eyes were dull and there was no special power peeping at him, but Xue Chen was getting more and more stressed.
"Ahem!" The old man coughed twice and spat a mouthful of old yellow phlegm on the ground. Then he turned to Tiansuanzi and said, "You little calculation! Go get two copper coins!"
"Yes!" Tiansuanzi did as he was told and walked towards the bamboo house, but he took a deep look at Xue Chen.
After a while, Tian Suanzi came back and handed over the two copper coins. The old man wiped off the black and greasy dirt on the surface of the copper coins with his calloused palm fingers.
I thought I wouldn’t use it again!”
After the black oil was wiped off, there was a strange Bagua texture on the copper coin, and Xue Chen realized that it was a treasure used for divination.
The old man weighed it twice, then broke off a branch from a small shrub nearby with his other hand, and drew it on the ground. It turned out to be a crooked tortoise. No! It should be a black tortoise. There were nine vertical and horizontal lines on the tortoise shell.
, there is some kind of mystery hidden in it, but Xue Chen did not feel that the laws of heaven and earth resonated with it.
Then, the old man put two copper coins in his hands and began to shake them. He shook his head and said: "Heaven is full of spirits, the earth is full of spirits, please let the gods and ghosts show up soon!"
Xue Chen's eyes were blank. He originally thought it would be some special and superb use of seals or secret spells, but he didn't expect it to be a classic passage in miscellaneous notes used to deceive ordinary people.
Snap!
The old man suddenly opened his hands and saw two copper coins falling on the tortoise shell. On the front of one of them, there were the sun, moon, stars, flowers, birds, fish and insects, and on the back of the other, there were paintings of evil spirits, evil spirits and monsters, although they were very small.
, but Xue Chen saw it all, and thought to himself: "On this side, the natural law is the law of heaven and earth, and on the other side, the devil is dangerous. Both of them are inferior. Is there any danger?"
But the old man suddenly looked up at him and frowned: "Do you think there is no danger? You are wrong!"
I saw the old man slowly drawing the wooden branch along the eighteen vertical and horizontal lines, first horizontally, and then vertically. After nine rounds, the copper coin on the back was moved by the wooden branch several times, and it happened to cover the front.
on the copper coins.
hiss!
Looking at the evil spirit on the only opposite side, which seemed to come to life at this moment, Xue Chen's whole body was cold and his heart was hairy. He forced a smile to the old man: "Shangxian Gu Yuan, is this a coincidence?"
"No!" Tiansuanzi suddenly spoke, frowning, and reminded Xue Chen: "Originally, there is a balance of blessings and disasters, but according to Master's deduction, it is a situation of no blessings and great disasters. Disasters are hidden. Brother Xue, you will not be here soon.
There will be a bloody disaster!"
When Tianshuzi said it, Xue Chen's throat rolled, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his face was gloomy, he didn't know whether he should believe it or not!
"Haha! You little kid still doesn't believe it!" The old man suddenly smiled and guessed what Xue Chen was thinking.
At this time, Xue Chen had no luck at all. He knew that the Immortal Gu Yuan must have great magical powers. He thought that he was in danger, so he hurriedly bowed and bowed: "Please ask the Immortal to help me solve my problem. Xue Chen will definitely remember it in his heart and live forever."
Unforgettable, I will repay you with a spring of water one day!"
"Haha! I love hearing that!" The old man smiled and took another sip of tea, smacking his lips and savoring it. This sip of tea seemed to taste better.
Then the old man said to Tian Suanzi: "Xiao Suanzi, bring me the broken stone knife you used to chop wood when you were young!"
This time, Tian Suanzi frowned and asked: "Master, although the hatchet is made of hard material, it is not sharp at all. Don't you want Fellow Daoist Xue to pick out a life-saving treasure?"
But the old man raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Okay! You are all staring at the little rations I have, old man, and you are thinking of using external things, especially Xiao Dandan who comes to show your courtesy every now and then. If you dare to come back next time, you will definitely lock him up."
Black Room, the same goes for you as senior brother!"
After hearing the last sentence, Tian Suanzi, who had always been aloof from things, his face suddenly fell. He did not dare to say anything anymore, as if the "little dark room" was a very scary place, and then hurriedly entered the room to get something.
This time, Tian Suanzi brought a broken piece of black gold stone. It was dark and mottled, similar to a hatchet, but the blade was bumpy. The old man took it and waved it twice, and said with a smile: "It has not decayed after so many years!"
Then he said to Xue Chen: "This is the only firewood treasure in my house. If you want to take it, you have to agree to one request of mine!"
Xue Chen was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Can it resolve my disaster?"
"Well...it depends on whether you can seize the opportunity!" The old man chuckled.
Xue Chen asked: "What do you want from the Immortal?"
The old man raised his hand to stroke his beard, his face suddenly became serious, and he said: "You owe me a favor, I swear it with all my heart!"
Hearing this, Xue Chen looked puzzled, and Tian Suanzi also asked: "Master, although I swear by my heart, there are restrictions, but if I regret it, there will be no serious punishment?"
"Haha! You kids are short-sighted. I swear there is no binding force now, but if you become very powerful, you will find that you have to complete it." The old man said at the end, looking deeply at Xue Chen,
Wait for his answer.
Xue Chen hesitated for a moment, but then decided: "According to what the Immortal Gu Yuan said, my vow will be a long time in the future. It is better to get through the immediate disaster first!"
So, he nodded and said: "I, Xue Chen, swear with all my heart, if Master Gu Yuan can help me resolve this disaster, I will bear it in my heart and I will definitely repay him. I owe him a favor!"
"Ouch! You little kid is still being clever. If it wasn't my fault this time, you wouldn't have to owe me any favors, would you?" The old man glared in displeasure, then threw the stone piece at Xue Chen, grunting.
: "With my broken hatchet, although it can't solve the disaster head-on, it can bring you huge gains. It depends on whether you can grasp it!"
Xue Chen took the stone piece. It was as small as two palms, but it was heavy, at least weighing more than ten thousand kilograms. It was rough and mottled, and nothing could be seen on the surface. He tried it with immortal power and soul consciousness, but it turned out that it could not penetrate.
Although he didn't find anything magical about it, Xue Chen was sure - it was a treasure.
