A group of people patrolled for two or three days, but had no clue. As for the temple that Xu Qingmu mentioned, they had never seen a single piece of it. They found a lot of herbs in the cave, including the fat man Shen Xiuqi, who ate various species in the cave. All over. Steamed, grilled, sashimi, etc., eating in different ways.
The two little beasts also grew up in a circle in the past two days. Their growth rate was extremely terrifying and their appetites were astonishing. Especially the elder brother Qikagami, who could eat food similar to his own size in just one hour. Xu Qingmu scratched his head, how can this thing be maintained in the future?
Li Chengru looked at Qi Shang Ba Xia, who was sleeping at Xu Qingmu's feet. He stretched out his foot and kicked Qi Shang. Qi Shang immediately jumped up, bared his teeth and showed a fierce look on his face. The sister Ba Xia next to him also opened his eyes and saw that it was After Li Chengru, he continued to sleep leisurely. Li Chengru looked at the little beast Qi Shang carefully and said: "It seems that Qi Shang has inherited the blood of his mother's Beast King. From now on, when Qi Shang becomes a full adult, he will be able to fight with all the sword cultivators. .”
Xu Qingmu looked at Qishang, who was still grinning dissatisfied beside him, and stretched out his hand to pat his head gently: "It's just that the appetite is really amazing, I'm afraid I can't afford it."
In the past few days, everyone has been exposed to a lot of light. In this cave, every beast they encountered was afraid of them and avoided them, which saved everyone a lot of danger and trouble.
White Mirror Secret - There is another very strange creature in the cave, called the "black cockroach". It is as big as a hawk, has four corners on its head, has a face like a human face, and has wings to fly. But it is extremely curious and likes to stare at this creature. A group of people were hovering in the air. Chunyang Taoist said that if you eat this kind of creature, you can tell the truth and answer all questions, and the person involved does not remember what he said afterwards. When he was resting that night, the fat man secretly hunted and killed one and released it. Serving as other meat on the campfire for everyone to share, you will never give up.
A group of people didn't know why. Except the fat man, everyone else ate black cockroach meat.
When everyone's eyes started to wander, the fat man saw that the time was right and asked Cao Dan his first question:
"Do you like Xu Qingmu?"
"I don't know if I like it, but I just can't see him getting hurt and don't want him to suffer. Even if it costs me my life, I'm willing to do it."
The fat man's face was extremely calm. This is probably a blessing that cannot be obtained through love, right?
Then the fat man asked Xu Qingmu the same question again, but the strange thing was that Xu Qingmu just said that the person he liked was far away, and his eyebrows were like mountains.
The fat man was still a little unconvinced, so he asked Cao Tong, who was also a girl. But Cao Tong's answer made the fat man break into a cold sweat:
"I came here to kill Xu Qingmu."
Early the next morning, the fat man did not confess to Xu Qingmu about eating black cockroach meat. Firstly, what he had done was disgraceful, and secondly, regarding Cao Tong's intention to kill Xu Qingmu, after all, he was only seven or eight years old, so he treated it like a child. Nothing more.
After breakfast, several people were thinking about this so-called temple. According to Xu Qingmu's memories, they only walked for less than half an hour that night before arriving at the palace. However, these few people have been searching in the forest. The whole Bai Jing secret - I visited the cave all over, but still couldn't find any trace of the temple. Xu Qingmu said that the reason why he was selected by the temple was because of the seven-leaf Buddha lotus. As he said that, he mentioned the seven-leaf Buddha lotus that was chosen at the foot of Qishan Mountain. I told everyone about the scratch on Buddha Lotus.
The man in red armor next to him said: "Sir, if your blood was soaked on the flowers and you became a candidate for the trial, then you can try dripping blood on the flowers again and see if there are any clues?"
When everyone heard this, they were all stunned.
Xu Qingmu's eyes brightened, and he found a seven-leaf Buddha lotus. He pinched it with his fingertips, and a drop of blood condensed and slowly dripped onto the flower leaves.
In an instant, the woman in the dream slowly condensed out of the flower and gradually solidified, still holding a seven-leaf Buddha lotus in her hand. The woman smiled and said to Xu Qingmu: "Congratulations, the second task is completed."
With a wave of his hand, a huge palace rose up from the ground behind him and appeared in front of everyone in an instant.
When Li Chengru saw such a beautiful woman suddenly appearing, his eyes were like those of a wolf dog after seeing flesh. But when the woman turned her face, Li Chengru, who likes to stare at beautiful women like the old beggar, stood still like a bell.
When he moved, his eyes were instantly wet with vicissitudes of life, and he stared blankly, speechless.
It's just that everyone was attracted by the palace behind them and no one paid attention.
The woman glanced at Li Chengru, and then said to Xu Qingmu: "Do you want to continue with the third mission? All the treasures in this secret realm belong to you. Give up now, and I will give you ten white mirror treasures. From now on,
You leave and take back the glass beads you got."
Xu Qingmu was about to say that he wanted to continue, but the woman continued: "Think carefully. If you take on the third task, you must complete it, otherwise..."
The woman in white stretched out her hand again, and everyone behind her was restrained by the seven-leaf Buddha lotus. A series of sharp thorns stretched out from the vines, pointing directly at everyone's eyes.
"They will all be buried here."
Xu Qingmu looked back at everyone and was about to give up. But the fat man behind him said: "Take it, Xu Qingmu, you will need these treasures to fight Xu Pei in the future. One more foreign object and one more chance of winning."
Cao Dan also advised: "Xu Qingmu, take it, don't you believe in your ability? We will accompany you to win the third mission!"
The red-armored Fu Santie only said: I was originally a young master, and he went through fire and water.
Everyone behind him kept urging Xu Qingmu to take over the task. Xu Qingmu looked at the people in front of him with firm eyes, nodded to the woman in front of him and said: "Please enlighten me."
The woman in front of him smiled and backed away. A snow-white dagger appeared in front of Xu Qingmu. It was no more than a foot long, gleaming with cold light and extremely sharp. Then the third task requirement appeared in his mind:
Kill Cao Dan.
Xu Qingmu's head seemed to have been struck by lightning, and he stayed where he was. Is this the third mission?
At this moment, the mission that would only appear alone in Xu Qingmu's mind was loudly announced with the appearance of the woman in white. The vines on Cao Dan's body also disappeared, and he just stood in front of Xu Qingmu, surrounded by four people.
Their eyes met, as if they were back to the moment they first met in the military camp.
"Hi, hello, my name is Cao Dan."
Cao Dan also shed tears at this time and looked at Xu Qingmu: "Do it, Xu Qingmu."
After saying that, he slowly closed his eyes. As if accepting his fate, Xu Qingmu picked up his life.
Xu Qingmu's hand holding the dagger couldn't help but tremble, as he recalled all the past events about Cao Dan in his mind.
A group of people behind him who were bound by vines were silent. Faced with the choice of life and death, no one stood up to talk about justice. Either kill Cao Dan and survive, or the mission failed and everyone died. One Cao Dan was exchanged for several people.
In terms of survival, and all the treasures in the Baijing Secret Realm, no matter what the calculation, killing Cao Dan has the greatest benefit. But after living together for so long these days, no one said what Xu Qingmu should do.
Xu Qingmu lowered his head, and Cao Dan couldn't see his expression clearly.
"Do you know? I've hated you from the beginning." Xu Qingmu suddenly raised his head ferociously, looked at Cao Dan in front of him and said, "It's a lie to say that I don't hate you, because of you, I lost the best.
Brother Lin Zhenbei. On that day, you could have told me plainly not to take the hairpin, and Lin Zhenbei would not have died."
Xu Qingmu took a step forward and held Cao Dan's flowing white shirt with one hand. He said fiercely:
"Whether you do it out of guilt or sympathy for me, I don't care at all about the things you do that seem to care about me!"
Looking at the crazy Xu Qingmu in front of him, Cao Dan was shocked and speechless. Tears flowed down unconsciously. He opened his mouth and said, "You hate me so much?"
"You're right, I hate you so much! So, go to hell -"
The dagger fell heavily, Cao Dan slowly closed his eyes, quietly waiting for death, and shed a line of clear tears, carrying despair.
There was no stinging pain as expected. Cao Dan slowly opened his eyes, only to see Xu Qingmu's dagger inserted into his chest, and he slowly lay on top of Cao Dan. He said weakly: "I'm sorry, I really can't lie to you.
my own."
Cao Dan, who was holding Xu Qingmu, burst into tears: "Why, you hate me so much that you kill me? Why do you do this?"
"I really can't lie to myself. Ever since I was little, you have made me feel very warm. I can't forget the way you took the initiative to stand in front of me every time I encountered difficulties. I can't forget the dishes you cooked when I closed my eyes."
It smells burnt; the herbal medicine you boil is actually useless, but I still want to drink it...but I won't have the chance in the future..."
As his consciousness gradually blurred, the sounds and colors around him gradually faded away, and after his five senses disappeared, Xu Qingmu found that his body was unusually cold, and the surrounding area gradually fell into darkness, and even Cao Dan's cry disappeared.
Is this death? It's really cold.
But at this moment, a beam of light lit up from the distance, and a veteran bull rider came slowly. With the appearance of the veteran, everything around him slowly became alive. Xu Qingmu stretched out his hand to block the dazzling sunlight, waiting for his eyes
After slowly getting used to it, I finally saw the person's appearance clearly. His white eyebrows were connected into a line, his beard was also white and long, and his cheeks were rosy, giving him the look of an immortal with white hair and a childish face.
"Haha, that's right. You are worthy of inheriting my White Mirror Secret Cave. I hope you will take good care of it in the future. All living beings here have their destiny. From now on, I will leave it to you."
After that, a redder glass bead flew out from the old Taoist's body and melted into Xu Qingmu's body. Suddenly, Xu Qingmu felt that everything around him was extremely clear. He could even hear the chirping of insects and birds in the distance, the gurgling of streams, and the gentle mountain breeze.
.As if this whole world is under his control.
"Am I not dead?"
The Taoist laughed loudly: "If your dagger penetrates the body of Cao Dan in front of you, you will really die. I left these three tasks before I passed away. The first is to test courage, the second is to practice wisdom, and the third is to test benevolence and righteousness. Although you do
It’s not perfect, but it meets my passing standards, so I’ll give this secret realm to you.”
"The White Mirror Secret Cave itself is an ancient artifact, equivalent to the close-by object you carry. However, after so many years of evolution, it has become a world of its own, giving birth to thousands of creatures inside."
"The temple is even more magical. The flow of time inside is half that of the outside world. That is to say, if you have been cultivating there for ten years, only five years have passed outside. For cultivators, it is a very precious place."
"If you get those two ferocious beasts, please protect them. This is my request from Taoist Baimei to you."
After saying that, the old Taoist who called himself Taoist Baimei raised his hands and gave Xu Qingmu the courtesy of a scholar. Xu Qingmu quickly returned the gift and said, "You said your name is Taoist Baimei. Do you dare to ask if you are senior Li Yundong?"
The Taoist was a little surprised. Is there anyone in this world who still remembers me, Li Yundong? However, he still stroked his beard and nodded in agreement.
Xu Qingmu knelt down and bowed again, performing the highest courtesy. He bowed his head and said: "Junior Xu Qingmu, pay your respects to Senior Li!"
The Taoist helped Xu Qingmu up, and he seemed to be really happy. His eyes that were covered with white eyebrows were bright and bright, and he laughed heartily and said: "Okay, little kid, it's time for the Taoist to go. There is no self in this world!" The last ray of spirit left.
Dispersed in the wind, there is no more Taoist Baimei in the world where Li Yundong has persisted for hundreds of years.
Xu Qingmu bowed three times in the direction of the disappearance.
Half life is prosperous and half life is empty, there is no more Li Yundong in the world.
As the old Taoist left, Xu Qingmu fell into the infinite white light again. When he opened his eyes again, he saw the familiar white mirror in front of him. In the cave, Cao Dan burst into tears when he saw Xu Qingmu wake up, and threw himself on him regardless of the image.
The cry became even more unbridled. The fat man also cast an affirmative look, and even the Chunyang Taoist laughed and said: "Boy, no matter how you play around with women outside, my daughter must become a married woman!" Then regardless of everyone rolling their eyes,
Zi Gu Zi scratched his crotch and said, "This Feng Liu Jin looks just like Master." He seemed to be thinking of the tigress at home, and felt a burst of worry: How did this little junior brother pass that test?
Cao Tong was the only one, gritting his teeth and clenching his fists.
After finally comforting the crying Cao Dan, a few people gathered around again and asked what happened. Xu Qingmu scratched his head and looked at the woman in white: "Senior, is this a secret? Can I tell it?"
The woman who was looking at Li Chengru coldly turned to Xu Qingmu with a gentle smile on her face: "Okay, but I'm curious, how do you know that Cao Dan in front of you is an illusion? Why can't you do it after you know it?
?”
Xu Qingmu blushed a little and scratched his head again: "The real Cao Dan's breasts are not that big. In the fantasy, Cao Dan's breasts are so big that they hurt me."
Cao Dan, who was still a little stunned, rushed directly to Xu Qingmu, stretched out his fist, and was about to hit her. But Xu Qingmu calmed down quickly: "Even if I know it is fake, I can't bear to hurt her. The thought of
She would be hurt, and my heart would be extremely painful. The suffocating feeling that seemed to be drained from my heart was very uncomfortable."
Looking at Xu Qingmu's sincere eyes, Cao Dan sniffed and said, "You still have a conscience." But seeing Xu Qingmu's eyes still focused on his chest, a blush spread on his face.
For whom does the beautiful woman wear red makeup? She has to lean against the window. When someone comes in front of the window, she looks shy and a blush appears on her face.
The smile on the face of the woman in white gradually grew, but when she looked at Li Chengru, a trace of despair lingered. Li Chengru, who always thought outside the box, stood as if he had made a mistake, his eyes stupid.
Red-armored Fu Santie asked: "Sir, what exactly happened?"
Xu Qingmu stretched out his palm, and in the eyes of everyone, a red glass bead came out of his palm and floated in the air. "I met the white-browed Taoist Li Yundong."
As soon as he said this, everyone was shocked.
Li Yundong, who died a hundred years ago, saved millions of lives with one man's power, drove away demons hundreds of miles away with a whisk, slayed hundreds of thousands of demons with one word, and finally sacrificed his life for righteousness, perishing with the evil evil demon, and is now living in the modern world.
The current site of the Lilan Palace of the dynasty. Later generations built monuments to commemorate it, built merit monuments, built large and small temples, and chanted Baimei Taoist. Every year, the emperor would avoid meat and fish and eat vegetarian food on July 7th to commemorate
Li Yundong.
"Senior Li gave me the White Mirror Secret Cave and asked me to take good care of it."
Everyone was shocked again.
The master of the White Mirror Secret Cave? Darling, this is a lot of wealth. It is equivalent to an extra treasure place to retreat. Once you encounter an invincible person, just open the secret cave and hide in, and you will be invincible.
Existence. Xu Qingmu seemed to see the heat in everyone's eyes, and said: "It's not as magical as you think. The White Mirror Secret Cave is powerful, but when it comes to people with extremely high cultivation levels, it can still be broken open by external force. By then
The entire secret realm will cease to exist, and everything in it will also dissipate."
Xu Qingmu turned to the woman in white and said: "Sir Shangguan, Senior Li asked me to tell you that although the twenty-year agreement has not been completed, after I was selected as the successor, you no longer need to abide by the twenty-year agreement. Now,
You are free and can leave."
The woman seemed not to have heard Xu Qingmu's words. She stared at Li Chengru and said, "Where can I go? Just like the Shiba who was buried in the sea, my heart has already died."
Eighteen, the sword fairy Fang Yunyi wears a sword.
Li Chengru obviously raised his right hand, but still retracted it into his sleeve without saying a word.
The woman turned to Xu Qingmu and asked, "I still want to stay in this secret white mirror cave. I wonder if the cave owner can take me in?" Her voice was as gentle as water, making people feel peaceful.
Xu Qingmu quickly cupped his hands and said, "Then thank you, Lord Shangguan, for taking care of me."
Shangguan Wan. This is the name Li Yundong told Xu Qingmu before disappearing.
More than ten years ago, Shangguan Wan committed suicide on the Jueqing Cliff, and her blood fell onto the seven-leaf Buddha lotus. It was sensed by the secret cave of Bai Jing, so she was taken into the secret cave by Taoist Baimei. As a deacon, they made a twenty-year agreement.
Manage and select the successor of Mi-dong. However, there are very few rumors about Shangguan Wan in the world, and Xu Qingmu doesn't know much about it.
Shangguan Wan turned to look at Li Chengru and said nothing. A group of people who felt that the atmosphere was obviously different entered the most magical temple in the Baijing Secret Cave, leaving the two people who did not know the origin of the story alone at the door.
Qishang and Baxia seemed to understand the clues and sat there waiting to watch the excitement, unwilling to enter the palace. Li Chengru directly kicked the two grunting beasts away. Fortunately, Xu Qingmu had quick eyes and quick hands.
He immediately pulled his tail and forced him into the temple. Looking at Li Chengru's eyes, Xu Qingmu knew that the literary saint at this moment was really a little different. The two little beasts also saw something,
No longer struggling, he followed Xu Qingmu obediently and hid.
No one heard what happened outside the door, but they saw Shangguan Wan beat Li Chengru with his fists after saying a few words. Li Chengru was as motionless as a piece of wood. When everyone wanted to watch again, Li Chengru stretched out his hand and sent a white twilight wave.
Drifting, nothing can be seen.
Xu Qingmu told everyone that the palace here could slow down the flow of time. A group of people were surprised and thought in their hearts that this was an excellent place for cultivation.
It wasn't until the afternoon that Li Chengru and Shangguan Wan came out together. The atmosphere seemed to have eased, but Shangguan Wan's face was still frosty.
Xu Qingmu asked everyone if they needed to go out.
A group of people gathered together and decided to leave the cave in the evening. After all, they had been delayed for nearly half a month in these days. Xu Qingmu nodded and said: "Then I will open the treasure house and you each choose one piece. Senior Li left a message and said
These are all ancient relics, and some are too powerful. I hope you can choose them according to your own wishes and don't be greedy."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and dozens of weapons or elixirs appeared in front of him.
The red-armored talisman Santie chose a weapon that looked like a heavy halberd. He used a halberd himself, so he liked it at first glance. The fat man chose a pot, which was stained with rust and could not see anything special. But the fat man wanted this.
Pieces, without looking at the others. Ye Qingxian chose a broken sword. The sword was densely covered with cracks, but when Ye Qingxian stretched out his hand to hold the hilt, the sword came back together. Ye Qingxian used force
He waved it twice, and it was extremely sharp. Cao Tong chose a doll, which looked like a rabbit, and was exactly the same as an ordinary worldly toy. Neither Chunyang Taoist nor Li Chengru had a choice. They just said that these were just foreign objects. At this age where there is no desire and no pursuit, taking
On the contrary, it was a fetter. Cao Dan also had no choice, he just looked at Xu Qingmu's eyes and wondered.
Well, there is no choice here, I have to have both.
Xu Qingmu chose a white luminous pearl among the treasures. He was thinking about the jade-like Prince Yi on the road. When he goes back, Brother Wang will definitely like this bright pearl very much. Thinking of this, the corners of Xu Qingmu's mouth couldn't help but rise.
:Big brother in fluttering white clothes, waiting for me to go back.
A group of people had their last dinner in the forest. Only then did the magic of Fatty's pot appear. All the food in the pot was extremely delicious. Even without any condiments, it made people salivate and leave them with endless aftertaste.
What's even more amazing is that after eating the food in the pot, heat surges through the body and feels extremely comfortable. Li Chengru commented: "This pot should only exist in heaven, and it is rare to eat it in the world." The fat man was extremely happy and waited for everyone to eat.
After that, the fat man, who never washed the pot, hurriedly ran to the river, working extremely diligently.
In the evening, Xu Qingmu waved his hand, forming a door of light directly in front of him. Everyone stepped through the door one after another and appeared in the palace. Xu Qingmu was the last person to step out of the White Mirror Secret Cave, stretched out his hand to put away the red glazed bead, and put it away.
Get into something close by.
After searching for more than half a month, I finally came back.
The twenty-nine sergeants were nowhere to be seen, and there was only blood everywhere.
Everyone was shocked, something happened.
The Nuo Palace was silent except for the howling wind.
Outside the hall, countless pairs of red lights lit up.
