At this time, Xu Xian quickly called a few farmers who came with him, and combined their efforts to drain the pool, a stone gate was immediately exposed under the three characters "Tianshi Cave".
When the heavy stone door was pushed open, a dark cave appeared inside, and then a musty smell emitted.
After a while, Xu Xian asked a farmer to find a torch, selected one of the strongest farmers, and entered the cave together.
After the two of them walked in the cave for a while, suddenly a ray of light seemed to appear in front of them. When Xu Xian and the farmer took a closer look, they discovered that it was the light from a luminous pearl hanging on the cave wall.
At this time, the torch was almost burned out, so Xu Xian asked the farmer to pick off the luminous pearl and continue moving forward.
After walking for an unknown distance, another burst of light appeared in front of me, but this time the light was several times brighter than the previous light of the night pearl.
When Xu Xian and the two of them got close to the light, they realized that the floor tiles and walls were all paved with white marble, and the light was also emitted by these white marbles.
"I didn't expect that Patriarch Zhang Daoling would have such a luxurious cave, which is no less inferior to the underground palaces of princes and generals!"
“I just don’t know when the end will be!”
When the farmer looked at the cave, which was entirely made of white marble, he was naturally amazed.
"Don't talk nonsense!"
"How can ordinary people like princes, generals and ministers compare with Master Zhang?"
Xu Xian has naturally always respected Zhang Tianshi very much.
So the two of them continued to move forward, and finally reached the end of the cave without walking very far.
Later, Xu Xian and the farmer discovered another stone door at the end of the cave.
So the two of them pushed open the stone door, and a huge stone house appeared inside.
There is an ancient silk calligraphy portrait on the innermost wall of the stone house, and there is a stone altar underneath the portrait.
Xu Xian took a closer look at the person in the portrait. He was an old man with an immortal demeanor, but his facial features and decorations were completely different from the portraits of Zhang Tianshi he often saw.
"Who is this Taoist priest?"
"Why is it that in this Tianshi Cave, there is not a portrait of Zhang Tianshi himself?"
Xu Xian fell into curiosity at this time.
"Prime Minister Xu!"
"Look!"
"There seems to be a slip under this stone altar!"
At this moment, the farmer suddenly pointed to the stone altar and reminded some Xu Xian.
"Slips?"
"Since it is a slip, there must be written records!"
Xu Xian quickly took out a scroll of bamboo slips that had been scattered from under the stone altar.
Later, after Xu Xian identified the handwriting on it, he realized that this slip recorded all the important experiences of Patriarch Zhang Daoling from his birth to his enlightenment and immortality.
Moreover, this slip also mentioned how to turn animals into humans.
He also introduced that the person in this portrait was actually Mr. Laozi, the ancestor of Taoism.
But what Xu Xian cares most about is of course how to make animals become real people. After all, this is a major matter related to himself and his wife Bai Niangzi.
After all, it was a secret at this time, so Xu Xian couldn't tell the illiterate farmer who was accompanying him when he saw it.
Xu Xian finally learned an important piece of information from this slip, that is, there is a Snake Fairy Cave on the top of Taihua Peak in Qingcheng Mountain, where White Snake and Xiao Qing once practiced.
After all, Xiaoqing's injuries were too serious and he had been unable to communicate with Xu Xian for a long time. Otherwise, Xu Xian would not have reached Qingcheng Mountain and would not know where the place where he once practiced was.
Since the Snake Fairy Cave is at the top of Taihua Peak, the scholar who teased me asked me to go to Taihua Peak to find Mr. Lu You. Could it be that Mr. Lu You is in the Snake Fairy Cave now?
No, how could Mr. Lu You, an ordinary mortal, be in the place where my wife once practiced?
Could it be that the scholar was sent by my wife Bai Suzhen to guide me to Taihua Peak?
How come I, Xu Xian, am so stupid? I can’t even think of this?
I don’t know where my wife has gone since she separated from me. She must have returned to the Snake Fairy Cave on Taihua Peak.
In this case, when I, Xu Xian, arrive at the Snake Immortal Cave at Taihua Peak, won't I be able to save Xiaoqing, and will I be able to reunite with my fairy-like wife?
Thinking of this, Xu Xian immediately left the Tianshi Cave with the farmer, and then returned to the Taoist temple.
After staying nearby to find some wild fruits to satisfy his hunger, and resting for another night, Xu Xian led a few farmers to carry Xiao Qing and officially started climbing Taihua Peak of Qingcheng Mountain.
On the top of Taihua Peak, under a pavilion.
A middle-aged man is stroking the strings of the piano, and the sound behind the strings is full of sadness.
"Third brother!"
"You have been playing the piano under this pavilion every day for several days in a row. Don't you feel bored?"
A sweet-looking woman wearing beaded flowers and a long skirt walked towards the middle-aged man.
"So what if it's boring?"
"I only regret that the current emperor is timid, incompetent, and listens to Ni Chen's words. Otherwise, why would the Tatars invade our Song Dynasty in a large scale!"
"If the Holy Father had listened to my words and made preparations to defend against the Tatars, why would we be in this situation now?"
The middle-aged man looked very angry.
"Since Third Brother is so concerned about the safety of the Song Dynasty in Qingcheng Mountain, why not go down the mountain as soon as possible to defend against the Tatars?"
"Why bother with the sound of the piano all day long?"
The woman responded immediately.
"You think it's your third brother who doesn't want me to fight against the Tatars?"
"With the current dim monarchy, how can I, Lu You, have any room to flourish?"
It turns out that this middle-aged man is the real Lu You.
"Since I can't be a general who commands, can't my third brother be a soldier who charges on the front line?"
"Anyway, I think it's useless for you to play the piano here all day and scold him!"
The woman continued.
"Fourth sister!"
"How do you understand the important affairs of the country?"
"correct!"
"I haven't seen you anywhere these days. Where have you been?"
Lu You changed the topic.
It turns out that this woman is Lu Waner, Lu You's fourth sister.
"Where else can I go, other than wandering around in Qingcheng Mountain!"
"When, third brother, you figure it out and go down the mountain, I will accompany you home!"
"At this time, my mother and sister-in-law must be waiting for us at home!"
Lu Waner responded.
"Stop running around in Qingcheng Mountain!"
"Don't you know that there are wild beasts everywhere in Qingcheng Mountain?"
"You are from a girl's family, when will you let me, your third brother, worry less!"
Of course, Lu You has the deepest relationship with his four sisters.
"Third brother, you don't even listen to me!"
"Why should I listen to you!"
"I'm going to play everywhere!"
"Unless you go home with me!"
As Lu Waner spoke, she ran away without a trace again.
"This...this fourth sister!"
"How disobedient!"
"I should have known I wouldn't have brought her to Qingcheng Mountain!"
"Fourth sister, where are you going...where are you going!"
"Wait for me, third brother...wait for me!"
Lu You was naturally worried when he saw his fourth sister running away again, so he quickly followed her. This chapter has been completed!
