I looked at that figure, without stopping or looking for the little Taoist priest, but continued walking up step by step.
As Liu Shan said, this Maoshan is indeed not simple.
The road up the mountain alone is more mysterious and strange than any place I have been to before.
It was like just stepping into this place, I entered a place similar to an illusion, but every step made me clearly feel that I was going up the mountain.
This feeling is very strange.
Although it is not as real as the fantasy world of Xianmen, among the real and fake, it is even more difficult to distinguish which part is real and which part is fake.
But I also understand in my heart.
Maoshan knows my arrival, so what I am experiencing now, every step I take, is the power Maoshan gives me.
They are telling me.
Maoshan is not a place where I can act recklessly.
I don't really care about this. I came here not to make enemies with Maoshan, but to resolve the disputes I had with Maoshan along the way.
Maoshan's reaction made me certain that they were afraid of me!
After a while, I reached the halfway point of the mountain.
The surrounding scene still didn't change much, but in front of me, the little Taoist priest appeared again. He was waiting for me with a pot of tea and a teacup.
Seeing me coming, he poured a cup of tea and handed it to me.
While I took the tea, he poured himself another cup, and then used the tea in the cup to write a line of words out of thin air.
"Can I leave?"
I shook my head and said, "I came here just because I wanted an answer."
"If you can tell me the answer now, I can leave."
The little Taoist priest also shook his head, then bowed to me and turned around and walked towards the mountain.
I looked at him and drank the tea in one gulp, and the teacup disappeared from my hand, as if it had never appeared.
But the warmth in the body shows the effect of that cup of tea.
I'm a little surprised.
With this cup of tea, the fatigue caused by the awakening of the Soul-eating Gu mother worm in the car suddenly disappeared.
After looking doubtfully at the direction of the top of the mountain, I continued walking up the mountain.
Before I knew it, the night was already deep.
In front of me, we are less than ten steps away from the Qingfeng Temple that Liu Shan mentioned.
The figure I had seen at the foot of the mountain finally appeared in front of me.
He is a young man who looks to be in his twenties.
He looks even younger than Zhang Mingyu.
However, I just glanced at him and felt an aura that could only be felt from the Lord of Beiyin and Li Bowen.
This man is very strong.
Seeing me coming, he made a gesture of invitation to me, and then took me to a pavilion in front of Qingfeng Temple. After sitting down, the scene in front of me finally completely recovered.
It is no longer between true and false, but has completely become real.
Looking down the mountain, all I can see is darkness.
Before I spoke, he had already poured me another cup of tea. The little Taoist priest who I originally thought was also an illusion also appeared at the same time, and there were two more coffins behind him.
The two coffins were much larger than the body of the little Taoist priest, not to mention the weight, but the little Taoist priest only used two red ropes to easily pull the two coffins to me.
"Li Xuantian."
"Here is what we, Maoshan, give you."
After the coffin was delivered and the young Taoist priest left again, the young Taoist priest spoke at the same time.
His voice was vicissitudes of life and his words were calm.
But in this peace, I feel like I can't breathe.
I don't know if he did it on purpose or for other reasons.
In this feeling, I can almost confirm that his strength does not seem to be weaker than the City God I met in the Burial Immortal Land, who may be a real god.
I looked at the two coffins and did not rush over. Instead, I thought for a moment and asked, "Mr. Taishan Mansion, what is your relationship with your senior?"
The young Taoist priest pondered for a moment and said, "There is some cooperation."
"But that's not important."
He glanced at the two coffins again, "This explanation is the answer I, Maoshan, give you."
"I, Maoshan, are well-educated and have never interfered too much in the world of strange people. But because of this, I, Maoshan, have many disciples."
"It doesn't matter whether it's a family or a layman."
"After all, I made some mistakes."
Hearing this, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"I see."
I stood up and walked towards the two coffins.
After opening it, there were only two skeletons in the coffin. The flesh and blood on the skeletons had disappeared, but just from the smell, I was able to confirm that the two skeletons were the people I had met who claimed to be from Maoshan.
After closing the coffin lid again, I returned to the original position.
"Senior, what else do you need?" I asked.
Now I am no longer the first time I came out of Niang'er Village.
I have long understood the connection between these interests.
The choice made by the Lord of Maoshan has undoubtedly placed himself on the opposite side of the Lord of Taishan Prefecture, which also means that he wants something from me.
Hearing my question, he smiled slightly and said, "There's no rush."
"Let me ask you a question first."
I was a little surprised, but nodded anyway.
"Do you know what an Earth Immortal is?" he asked.
I thought for a moment and said, "The villagers who keep their spirits up can be called Earth Immortals."
But he shook his head and said: "It can indeed be said that there are immortals in the world, but the road to the gods is actually similar to the false gods created by Taishan Fujun's Huangquan Road."
"Those who take the road to spirituality are just fake immortals."
"The prerequisite for communicating with the gods is to ask the gods for help."
"Please tell me that there are only nine realms that really exist in the world, and these nine realms are all within you."
"Only you can become a true Earth Immortal."
I frowned slightly and said, "Is it possible that those amazingly talented seniors are not real living immortals?"
He smiled and said: "Of course."
"If he were a real earth immortal and wanted to kill a false god, City God, how could he end up with a tragic death?"
"False immortals and false gods are fighting each other, so there will be such a scene."
"To put it bluntly." He suddenly poured two cups of tea, and the tea in the cups turned one white and one black.
The white color has a strong earthly fairy scent.
The black one is the breath of the City God.
"The game between Taishan Mansion Lord and ghosts and immortals is nothing more than a game between immortals and gods."
"It's just that both of them are fighting for a chess piece."
"And now this chess piece is in the hands of the ghost fairy."
These words made my eyelids twitch again, and I couldn't help but ask: "Guixian, who are you?"
However, he didn't answer me. He just poured out the tea in the cup and poured me another cup.
"A true Earth Immortal is still a village guardian."
"But in fact, they have already broken away from the category of village guardians."
"The place guarded by Earth Immortals is no longer a village."
