Xu Mo walked out for a hundred steps before looking back.
In the dark Buddhist cave, there seemed to be countless pairs of eyes, staring at him coldly.
With bad intentions.
But he actually came out safe and sound.
It's not just luck, it can only mean that the Thousand-Armed Buddha spared him.
"It's a bit strange, it doesn't suit the other person's personality." Xu Mo was very confused and even thought about going back and asking Thousand-Armed Buddha what he thought.
Why let yourself go?
Of course, this is just a thought.
If he really went back, Xu Mo felt that he would have to go back to Bajiao Pavilion.
This cycle obviously made a huge breakthrough and set a record.
Not only has the cultivation level reached its highest level, but the progress of exploration has also been unparalleled before.
In this case, you must cherish it and keep it. If you can explore more, even if it is just one more step, it is considered earned.
Therefore, Xu Mo did not investigate why the Thousand-Armed Buddha let him go.
Anyway, I can be sure that it is definitely not out of kindness, there must be other reasons.
Since he wanted to leave, he would naturally run all night.
I met Abbot Jingxu outside.
When the other party saw Xu Mo, his expression was no different from seeing a ghost.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, how could you..." He wanted to say, how could you come out alive? But this was not pleasant and unlucky, so he swallowed it back.
Xu Mo chuckled: "I chatted with the Buddha and came out after the chat. By the way, Master Abbot, I suddenly remembered that when I went out, the door of my house was unlocked. I have to go back quickly. We are destined to meet again."
After saying that, Xu Mo said goodbye and went down the mountain directly.
Abbot Jingxu wanted to stop him, but didn't.
Because this also involves the Thousand-Armed Buddha.
The Buddha told the other party to leave, but if he stopped him, he was afraid that it would cause unnecessary trouble.
Just watching Xu Mo go down the mountain.
Approaching the entrance of Fachan Temple, Xu Mo saw Monk Jingkong.
The other party came up to him, clasped his palms together, and was about to speak.
Xu Mo said first: "Master, your skin is split!"
Monk Jingkong was stunned, and he immediately turned around and walked away in fear. As he walked, he touched his face again and again, trying to find which piece of skin was torn.
Taking advantage of this gap, Xu Mo walked out of the temple.
Out.
But this is not enough, you have to stay away quickly.
If I don’t sleep tonight, I can run as far as I can.
When going down the mountain, Xu Mo's skills were fully activated, and he could take one step ten feet at a time. The speed was so fast that ordinary people couldn't see clearly under the moonlight, and they might only feel a gust of wind blowing by.
In a short time, Xu Mo had already descended to the foot of the mountain.
Keep running.
After running for ten miles, Xu Mo stopped outside a small village.
There was a tree in front of him. Xu Mo walked in and called out softly. The leaves on the tree swayed and the two people jumped down silently. It was Lin Jiuyuan and the big green snake Xiangying.
Previously, Xu Mo asked Xiang Ying to go down the mountain first, find Lin Jiuyuan, and then wait for him here.
Apparently, they've been here for a while.
"Master Xu!" Lin Jiuyuan was very excited.
Xiang Ying was also very excited: "I thought I wouldn't be able to come back."
Although it was a bit unlucky, they were all words of concern, and Xu Mo was not on the same level as her.
"Let's go and drive all night."
Xu Mo was really afraid that the Thousand-Armed Buddha or the two old monks Jingxu and Jingkong would chase him. He kept running like this until dawn. When Xu Mo was drinking tea at a roadside tea shop in front of him, he suddenly realized what he was doing.
"I understand!" Xu Mo put the tea bowl on the table with a look of surprise on his face.
"What do you understand?" Xiang Ying asked.
Next to him, Lin Jiuyuan also looked over with curiosity.
"He thought I had someone to back him up, so he didn't dare to touch me. The last move was just to shock someone, or to bluff."
Xu Mo carefully considered his speculation.
The possibility is high.
From this point of view, all the previous ones are also correct.
"Earn it!"
Xu Mo knew very well that this time he was lucky.
Xiang Ying and Lin Jiuyuan didn't know why, and Xu Mo didn't explain this matter carefully. Now that they've passed this level, let's continue.
According to the original plan, I went to the Kyoto of the Great Xia Dynasty and found the 'Item Refining Pavilion' to refine Taoist Lingzhao's Nascent Soul and Huagai.
Then in Kyoto, look for any past history, explore what happened in the past eight hundred years, and see if you can find any clues about the 'true immortal'.
Xu Mo felt that he would eventually follow the path of the true immortal.
Although looking at it now, this road has no clue at all, not even the moon in the mirror, but at least we have to start working towards this aspect.
It was now bright and the sun was rising. The tea shop was right next to the official road. There were more and more people coming and going, making it very lively.
There are also more people taking a break for tea.
There were people from all walks of life, including porters, theater troupes, and family members of officials and officials who were out for fun. Xu Mo even encountered a shop owner checking people's heads. They said they were hunting down important criminals and compared the portraits of the prisoners one by one.
Seeing this for the first time, Xu Mo found it quite interesting.
Although the behavior of these agents was rude and unreasonable, Xu Mo didn't hate them at all. Compared with the real weird things, the behavior of these agents was nothing at all.
The closer we get to Kyoto, the more people there are on the road, and there are checkpoints along the road, guarded by troops wearing armor and swords.
Looking at Kyoto from a distance, the city wall stands horizontally between heaven and earth. There are no pavilions on the left and no edges on the right. The size of the city is astonishing.
Queue to enter the city.
You also need to check where you are from and your place of birth.
Very strict.
But Xu Mo was prepared and the three of them entered smoothly.
It is said that the king of ancient rhyme has the power to see the capital. Basically, you can tell something about the dynasty from this political and economic center.
"Xiang Ying, have you been to Kyoto before?" Xu Mo asked.
"I came here once, and that time it was for refining weapons." Xiang Ying also looked around curiously: "It was about three hundred years ago. I was stuck in rebirth and couldn't make any progress, so I walked around and played.
Just for fun, come to the Weapon Refining Pavilion and let them refine a magic weapon."
What she was talking about was the hairpin on her head.
"Last time, was it also so noisy and lively?"
"The excitement is lively, and the noise is really noisy, but the situation is different. The last time I came here, it was the fall of the previous dynasty. This place was extremely dilapidated and ruined, with wars and chaos, corpses on the road, and some demons secretly practicing cannibalism.
, how could it be as peaceful as it is now."
Xu Mo thought about it, and it was right. It had only been three hundred years since the founding of Daxia. He had studied ancient royal power, and it was not easy to live for two or three hundred years.
It is said that the last old dynasty, the Great Zhou Dynasty, only existed for more than a hundred years before it fell.
And every time a dynasty changes, there will inevitably be a loss of lives.
Isn't there a saying that if things prosper, the people will suffer; if they die, the people will suffer.
Throughout the ages, the unlucky ones have always been those at the bottom.
Relatively speaking, I would rather be a dog in prosperous times than a person in troubled times.
"Jiuyuan, have you been here?" Xu Mo is a talkative. Basically, he initiates more than 90% of the topics on the road. He talks about everything. Otherwise, just ignore him. Once you pick up the conversation, you can talk about it.
Endless.
"I came once with my father, when I was seven years old." Lin Jiuyuan answered honestly.
According to Lin Jiuyuan, they were visiting friends that time.
The person he was visiting was also a famous martial arts legend. Xu Mo seemed to have heard Lin Muchen mention something called "Shenlong Fierce Ham".
He should be a martial arts master who is good at his kicking skills, but every time Xu Mo hears this, he always interprets it as some kind of 'food'. There is nothing he can do about it, this nickname is too ridiculous.
However, Lin Muchen said that the opponent's kicks were extremely strong. Under the true energy, the legs were like sticks and transformed like whips. Because the internal strength was extremely strong and yang, so in a powerful battle, he could kick out fierce flames.
This is why it is called "Fire Ham".
Lin Jiuyuan also brought a handwritten letter from Lin Muchen this time, asking her to deliver it to the Dragon Ham Hero's house, and also let them live in each other's house.
This saves a lot of trouble.
After all, this is the capital of Daxia, so the review of staying here is quite strict.
When Lin Jiuyuan mentioned this matter, Xu Mo had no objection.
What he wants to do in Kyoto will definitely take more than a day or two.
It's a good thing to have a place to stay.
"In this way, let's go to the Weapon Refining Pavilion first, and then visit the ham hero." Xu Mo decided.
Neither Xiang Ying nor Lin Jiuyuan had any objections.
The Weapon Refining Pavilion is very famous among the kings of Daxia.
Dharma practitioners and evil spirits call it the 'Weapon Refining Pavilion', while ordinary people call it the 'Fire Workshop'. This is because there are several large chimneys and many fire rooms here, hence the name.
On the way, Xiangying said that a long time ago, the Refining Pavilion had another name.
"Tu Xian Pavilion!"
"What's the significance of this name?"
"have no idea."
Xiang Ying shook his head: "I also heard what other demon cultivators said, but that demon cultivator is already dead."
As he spoke, Xiang Ying looked sad, as if he was remembering something from the past.
Most people will definitely stop asking when they see this.
But Xu Mo is not an ordinary person.
"What kind of demon cultivator? How did it die? What's your relationship with it? A relative or your former husband?"
Afterwards, Xiang Ying told Xu Mo, if Jiu Yuan hadn't held me back at that time, I would have killed you.
Even so, Xiang Ying still told Xu Mo.
She once had a sister who was both a teacher and a friend.
"I am able to cultivate today thanks to her, but she was skinned and cramped, and died miserably." Xiang Ying said calmly, but Xu Mo, who was familiar with her temperament, knew that she was in danger now.
The more you care, the more you have to pretend not to care.
"Revenge?"
"No, you can't defeat your enemy."
"I'll help you!"
"You?" Xiang Ying looked like he wanted to laugh, but the problem was that Xu Mo was quite serious when he said this, and it didn't look like he was joking at all.
"Yes, I, Xu Mo, will help you avenge this." Xu Mo is indeed serious.
Xiang Ying treats him well. Although he often thinks about eating him, in essence, they are good friends, and they are also good friends at the level of confidants.
Helped him a lot.
Because they are close friends, when Xiang Ying mentioned this matter just now, it could be seen that she was completely different from usual.
With her temperament, she would only do this if she really cares about her.
Xu Mo is also kind-hearted and if he can help, he must help.
"You don't even know who your enemy is." He said this, but Xiang Ying looked at Xu Mo seriously.
See how he will answer.
"No matter who he is, if I want to kill him, it will only be a matter of time before he dies."
"I understand, then I really have to rely on you for this matter." Xiang Ying currently knows and believes in Xu Mo's existence in the cycle, so she knows that what Xu Mo said is not nonsense.
This guy might actually be able to do it.
"Tell me, who is the enemy?"
"Zhenggan Cult Leader, Zhong Tianlin!"
Xu Mo nodded.
Note it down.
He now has a deep understanding of the world.
For example, he knows what the Zhenggan Sect is.
Similar to Hozenji Temple.
But it needs to be even more powerful. After all, Fachan Temple is not yet the number one Buddhist sect, but Zhengqian Sect is currently recognized as the number one Taoist sect by cultivators.
Is the leader of this first sect an ordinary person?
I guess he is a serious 'immortal'.
However, in Xu Mo's eyes, most of the immortals in this world are fake immortals.
But even if he is a fake immortal, he is still an immortal.
No wonder Xiang Ying said she couldn't beat him.
She is indeed no match.
Anyone else would not believe it if they heard Xu Mo's wild words about killing the leader of the first Taoist sect in the future. They would also think that Xu Mo is a braggart, or simply a lunatic.
But Xiang Ying knew that it was really possible for Xu Mo to do it.
