"Little friend Qin Luo, you really passed this test. Come upstairs."
At this time, this voice came to Qin Luo's ears. It was low and gentle. He could tell that this was Bai Zheng's voice in the illusion just now.
Just to be on the safe side.
He still called out the system again and checked the time.
Seeing that the time display on it was moving normally, Qin Luo's heart finally calmed down.
After all, matryoshka dolls have layers.
But if it were to be like Inception, he would have the system time to serve as his anchor and not be afraid of getting lost in it.
Qin Luo slowly climbed up the stairs to the third floor.
Everything here is the same as what I saw in the mirror.
Qin Luo couldn't see through the cultivation levels of Bai Zheng sitting at the table and Qiu An standing behind him.
Qin Luo couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Fortunately, I was still vigilant and kind just now.
Otherwise, as long as he takes action in the illusion, he may have to prepare for the next life now.
Seeing Qin Luo coming up, Qiu An explained with an apologetic look: "Brother Luo, the mirror that my uncle used to examine you just now will inspire your greatest malice towards the person in the mirror and give you the opportunity to take action.
, to judge your thoughts.
So if you had evil thoughts towards us just now, don’t feel guilty, we won’t blame you.”
"A gentleman has no regard for his heart. Just now, Fellow Daoist Qin didn't do anything in the Heart-Questioning Mirror, which shows that he didn't come with any malicious intent." Bai Zheng said calmly at this time, "Since Fellow Daoist Qin came here to seek immortality, let's wait.
Xiao An will take you to the Sutra Pavilion to have a look and choose a book of exercises that suits you."
"Thank you." Qin Luo bowed his hands with a serious look on his face.
"Yeah." Bai Zheng nodded, "Sit down and have a cup of tea together."
This sitting lasted two hours.
Qin Luo and Qiu An, who also looked helpless, looked at each other.
At this time, he finally understood what Qiu An said before, not wanting to go upstairs to drink tea, otherwise he would have to sit there for most of the day.
Whenever he drank a cup of tea, Bai Zheng would silently pick up the teapot and fill him with half a cup of tea, even if he was reading.
And this set of operations went smoothly without any pause.
If Qin Luo drinks the cup of tea immediately, Bai Zheng will repeat the above steps again.
Although this tea is very good, it even contains a hint of spiritual energy.
But just letting him sit here and drink all the time is unbearable.
When Qin Luo was really tired from drinking, he stood up and said, "Fellow Daoist Bai, I want to go get something to eat and take the items left on my boat with me..."
"It doesn't matter, just ask Xiao An to do it. Then he will make some snacks and send them over. Fellow Taoist Qin will continue drinking tea here..."
"No." Qin Luo's face tightened, "I'll do these little things myself, so there's no need to trouble Xiao An."
Without waiting for Qiu An to speak, he stood up in the next second, clasped his hands and went downstairs, all at once.
As for Qiu An’s sad eyes looking at his back...
A dead Taoist friend will not die a poor Taoist.
At worst, I'll tell him two more stories tomorrow. Listen.
…
The peach blossoms blooming on a tree inside Qingyin Gate faded and bloomed again, and the fish that migrated to Da Ze came and went again.
Qin Luo has been here for nearly a year. Ever since he broke through the Foundation Establishment Realm last month, he has been planning to leave.
This month, he has stabilized his realm and has almost mastered his own strength, so he said that he is ready to leave.
After all, although the environment within the Qingyin Sect is stable, he cannot enjoy the cultivation resources within the sect since he is not a disciple of the sect.
not to mention.
Another indispensable component of spiritual practice - building foundations and fighting in the same realm, and the combat experience it brings.
This is something that Qin Luo Qingyin Sect cannot obtain.
Except for those mortal fishermen who accidentally entered the sect's formation, there was no one I could defeat here.
As long as he is a cultivator, even the most harmless-looking Qiu An can easily crush him here.
It's not like Qin Luo has never thought about seeking peace and self-reliance to practice with him.
But every time he fought and fell into a disadvantage, Qiu An would subconsciously use spells that could only be used at the golden elixir stage.
Moreover, Qiu An is not good at fighting. If he went to find Bai Zheng who was sitting in the small attic making tea every day, he would be left there drinking tea for most of the day, and then he would be told something like "Why do we need to fight and kill?"
, "It's better to drink tea than to fight", "Let's have a drink".
certainly.
Qin Luo's gains from the Qingyin Sect were even greater.
At least he was familiar with the subsequent cultivation techniques during the Foundation Establishment period. After being promoted to Foundation Establishment last month, he went to look up the method of forming pills.
Regarding the later cultivation methods, he listened to Bai Zheng's suggestion and stopped reading. Instead, he read various ancient books to learn about various heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the world of immortality.
After all, he only practiced Qi for a small amount at the beginning, and now he has just become a foundation-building monk.
I know that if you are too ambitious in your practice methods, you can easily go astray and become possessed.
Understanding those natural and earthly treasures will help him avoid missing out on any great opportunities due to lack of eyesight in the future.
Seeing Qiu An standing on the road not far away, Qin Luo let out a breath of fresh air, put aside the thoughts in his mind, and walked towards Qiu An.
"Brother Luo, you really plan to leave." Qiu An whispered with some reluctance, "Oh, I won't be able to hear you tell stories about the outside world from now on.
Is the outside world really as fun as in your story? Brother Luo, tell me, the monkeys causing trouble in the Heavenly Palace, or the Emperor of Heaven who is arbitrary for all eternity. If I go out, which one should I follow first?"
Qin Luo looked at Qiu An and smiled and said: "Stories are just stories. The real world is not that simple. Danger and cunning are the normal conditions in the outside world. It is not as simple as you think."
Qiu An stayed in the Qingyin Sect in an environment where there was no competition or competition, and he had never experienced intrigues, so his thoughts were relatively simple.
Such a situation was rare for Qin Luo, whether in his previous life or this life.
After all, the conditions of the external environment are harsh, and it can only happen in a place like Qingyin Sect where resources are adequately allocated and there is no pressure.
I have been staying here for almost a year. When chatting on weekdays, I wanted to know the reason why the Qingyin Sect retreated from the world, but they kept it secret.
You must know that the Qingyin Sect does not look like a prosperous sect, but it still has strength. Even if Qin Luo breaks through to the foundation, when facing Qiu An and Bai Zheng, he still feels that their strength is unfathomable.
With their strength, if they still stay here, even Qiu An wants to go out, they will be severely stopped by Bai Zheng.
This is something Qin Luo finds quite strange.
And one time when he was chatting with Qiu An, Qiu An also mentioned that "there are no loose cultivators in the outside world."
At that time, Qin Luo wanted to continue questioning, but Qiu An only said that he learned this statement from Bai Zheng, and he did not know the specific reason.
There must be some secret in it.
But when he went to criticize Bai Zheng, the other party just cleverly avoided the issue.
not to mention……
Every time he went to see Bai Zheng, he would be left there to drink tea.
That was simply his biggest challenge in the Qingyin Sect!
Compared to being on the third floor of that small attic, facing the wooden-like Bai Zheng, drinking tea while looking at each other in silence.
Qin Luo would rather spend the whole day in the Scripture Collection Pavilion, reading those obscure ancient books.
But now that he is leaving, he still misses the days of leisurely drinking tea in the attic...
Just as Qin Luo was thinking this, he heard Qiu An whispering in his ear.
"Brother Luo, Uncle Bai knows that you are leaving, and he wants to invite you to the attic for a pot of tea to practice it for you."
Suddenly.
Qin Luo's face stiffened, and he coughed dryly and said: "It's getting late, tell Lao Bai, I appreciate his kindness, let's talk about drinking tea next time..."
After all, if he went, he probably wouldn't be able to leave today and would have to drink tea there for at least two hours.
When He Qiu'an walked to the peach tree where he first woke up, Qin Luo cupped his hands and said, "Just send me here and ask Xiaobai to come down and pick me up."
"Okay." Qiu An nodded heavily and said, "Brother Luo, I wish you everything will go well after you go out. I hope that when the next practitioner comes in, I can hear your story from brother Luo."
"There are close friends in the sea, and neighbors are as close as the end of the world." Qin Luo said solemnly, "I will give this poem to Xiao An, you and Lao Bai. Please entertain me during this time."
Qiu An lowered his head and muttered in a low voice the phrase "There are close friends in the sea, and the world is like a neighbor." After reading it several times in a row, he felt that the sense of loss that he would not be able to listen to Qin Luo tell him stories was not that heavy anymore.
So he pursed his lips, took out a white flag, and planted it under the peach tree.
After a while.
The white dragon in the swamp above his head received the call. It was originally wandering aimlessly and quickly ran towards the secret realm below. Then most of its body passed through the restriction and bowed its head in front of Qin Luo and Qiu'an.
Qiu An stepped forward, stretched out his hand and touched the scales on Bai Jiao's neck, and said softly: "Xiao Bai, please send Brother Luo out later. Don't rush too fast and shock him down."
Then he nodded to Qin Luo and said: "Brother Luo, sit on Xiaobai's back. I will bless you with the Water Avoidance Technique and the Golden Body Technique. It will not throw you off."
Listening to what he said, Qin Luo still felt unsure.
The posture in which the white dragon rushed down just now was extremely swift and fierce.
If he really jolted ashore at this speed, it would be a hundred times more exciting than the roller coaster in his previous life, and his brain would be shaken to pieces.
Qin Luo suddenly remembered.
When I was taken to this secret realm before, my head felt dizzy.
He didn't care at first.
Now it seems that the white dragon was probably delivered too quickly and caused him trouble.
Last time he was in a coma, but now he wants to be a dragon knight while he is awake.
Qin Luo slowly let out a breath of turbid air, and there was a trace of tragedy in his eyes: "The wind is rustling, the water is cold, and a strong man will never return when he is gone."
"Xiao An, I'm going."
After saying that, Qin Luo jumped onto the back of the white dragon, and with the blessing of Qiu'an Dharma Jue, he sat firmly.
"call out!"
The white dragon raised its head, and the sound of wind whistled in Qin Luo's ears.
When Qin Luo reached the junction point between the secret realm and Daze, a message from Bai Zheng rang in his ears.
"After you go out, remember not to mention that you have been here. If the people who forced us to hide from the world know about our existence, they will kill you.
In addition, try not to show your cultivation to the outside world. Just after the catastrophe, the cultivators you meet are not the remnants who survived but lost their inheritance. They are the creators of that catastrophe.
By the way, I have been apologizing for my rudeness when we first met. The boat on the lake is still the same one when you came a year ago. I put some apology on it.
I wish you well and a long future."
As the last blessing dissipated in Qin Luo's ears, the white dragon carried him out of the swamp, splashing tens of meters of water and dispersing the surrounding thick fog.
The scenery in front of Qin Luo changed rapidly.
From the picturesque secret realm to the dark bottom of Daze Lake, it instantly rose into the sky again, and a vast expanse of white fog appeared after a year's absence.
Then, the white dragon swam slowly on the water, brought him to the long-awaited boat, and then sank into the swamp and disappeared into the lake.
Qin Luo lowered his head and saw it leaving, then walked into the cabin and found that there were many bottles and cans piled inside, which was the compensation given to him as Bai Zheng said just now.
He walked closer and picked them up to look at them one by one. These objects were thoughtfully marked with words: 10 Qi Recovery Pills, 10 Explosive Blood Pills, three stacks of Thunder Control Talisman...
After the inventory is completed.
Qin Luo murmured in a low voice with a hint of guilt: "Lao Bai gave me so many things as compensation, which makes me feel a little embarrassed. It's a pity that I had wrong thoughts when I was in the illusion."
If calculated according to system standards, the elixirs and talismans in the cabin are almost as effective as low-grade yellow-level props.
But their limitations are far greater than the props provided by the system.
For example, the Qi Restoration Pill can restore 30% of the spiritual energy of monks in the early stage of foundation building within a quarter of an hour. The second time it is taken in a day, the effect is half, and the third time it is taken, it is better than nothing.
But the most precious thing Bai Zheng gave him was not these, but the inner elixir of Lingyun Deer.
After Qin Luo reaches the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment, if he does not choose to form his own golden elixir, he can use it as a fake elixir to advance to the golden elixir realm.
He was silent for two seconds, stood outside the cabin, and bowed three times to Daze in front of him.
He remembered the favor that Qingyin Sect had shown him in his heart.
You must know that others' initial temptation can be said to be your duty. If you encounter a monk of unknown origin under a situation where you may be threatened, you may not be as gentle as Bai Zheng.
Later, they allowed themselves to go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion and choose exercises to learn, which would offset the misunderstanding.
The items in front of me now are said to be compensation, but in fact they are more about releasing a kind of goodwill.
At this time, the surrounding fog slowly dissipated. Qin Luo knew that the release of the formation was over, so he set up a boat and sailed towards the shore.
He was going back to Dancheng next. He originally agreed that every five years, even if he couldn't go back to Dancheng, he would send news back and tell us about the current situation.
But he was delayed in the Qingyin Sect for a year, and Qin Yuan and the others probably started to worry about him.
This is one of the reasons why Qin Luo is eager to leave the secret realm of the Qing Yin Sect.
After rowing the boat back to the shore, Qin Luo packed up the elixirs and other items. As for the things he bought from the fishermen, which took up too much space, he only picked out a few useful things and threw the rest away.
Don't care on the ship.
Then he rushed straight towards Lingzhou without resting for a moment.
When the fog cleared and the fishermen were about to go fishing, they discovered the ownerless fishing boat. After a fisherman recognized that the boat was sold by him a year ago, more fishermen also found their own names on the boat.
Items sold years ago.
In their minds, the buyers of these items disappeared in the "fog day" a year ago.
…
In the summer of that year, all the fishermen were shocked when they saw a boat on the bank of Daze. It was bought by an outsider last year. The man was lost in the "fog-eating sky" and never saw it again. A year later, the boat turned upside down.
now.
Daze fishermen are said to think it is strange, and they are afraid of the foggy weather and do not fish. - "Zeyang County Chronicles Weird Hears Chapter" This chapter has been completed!
