"What Zhang Sanfeng? It's Li Mu."
On Mount Xuankong in Qingcheng City, Dao Ling sneered after hearing Xuan Chengzi's report.
"I think so too, but it's really surprising that Li Mu and Countess Huanzhu are old friends." Xuan Chengzi looked confused. "I've never heard that they know each other before."
Although Mount Qingcheng had suffered a great loss due to the death of Dao Chongyang and the internal strife, as the saying goes, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse. Thus, Mount Qingcheng was still well-informed. Hence, it naturally paid close attention to Li Mu, a well-known figure in the world, including his appearance, Cultivation Method, temperament, and so on. Furthermore, Li Mu's short hair was clearly a distinguishing feature.
Not all the people in the world were fools. Li Mu didn't even change his face. Maybe he could hide it for a while, but how could he hide it for a lifetime?
"It doesn't matter how they know each other. What's important is that Li Mu is obviously on Countess Huanzhu's side, which is more troublesome." Dao Ling looked about 40 years old, with a thin face and a long black beard. He had a rather elegant temperament. Years of cultivation made his temperament very close to nature, like an immortal. It was hard to associate him with the ambitious man who single-handedly planned the internal strife of Qingcheng Sect and occupied the position of the head of the sect.
Xuan Chengzi said, "Lord Jin is dead. Our plan has to be modified. It's a pity that everything was originally planned. If Lord Jin could ascend to the throne of the Northern Song, the things in Taiyi Palace would belong to us."
Dao Ling said, "Man proposes, God disposes. What has happened, just reflect on it. There's no need to regret it. "
Xuan Chengzi said, "I've learned, but I've taken remedial measures. Some people on Lord Jin's side have been cursed by the Tianyi Black Curse, which can be triggered at any time … However, Li Mu's appearance in the Northern Song is a variable after all. At this time, I'm afraid he has already gone to Lin 'an City."
"Li Mu first saved Dao Zhen in the Green Hornet Gorge, and then killed Lord Jin. I'm afraid he's not here with good intentions. Is he coming for our Qingcheng Sect? Ever since this kid made his debut, his actions have always been unexpected, we must guard against him. "Daozhen seemed to be deep in thought." What's the situation on the Ox-Head Mountain? "he asked.
Xuan Chengzi turned around and went out. After a while, he came back with a look of surprise on his face and said, "Master, the Daoyin Temple has disappeared. The original place where the temple was located was a green mountain, and now there is only a rusted iron bell of the Great Way of Nature."
He was very shocked when he asked about this news.
How could a perfectly fine Taoist temple with a thousand years of history disappear just like that? It was not destroyed, nor was it moved. It seemed to have disappeared into thin air without leaving a trace. That was strange.
To his surprise, Dao Ling was not surprised at all. He said, "Well, it's about time. But did Junior Brother Dao Qin comprehend the meaning on the Black Ox Tablet, or was it taken away by Li Mu?"
He addressed Daoqin, the Temple Master of Daoyin Temple, as his Junior Brother because the two of them were indeed Senior Brothers. They were both disciples who had followed Dao Chongyang in the Taoism Sect.
Those were some secrets of that year, and not many people knew it.
"It should be Li Mu. After he rescued Countess Huanzhu, he returned to Mount Oxhead," said Xuan Chengzi. Xuan Chengzi said. He did not know the so-called Black Ox Stele, but it did not prevent him from making some judgments. The reason was very simple. Li Mu appeared on Oxhead Mountain, and such a thing happened. It was hard to explain it as a coincidence.
Dao Ling nodded and said, "The Daoyin Temple is closed. Junior Brother Dao Qin and the others will come to Mount Xuankong soon. In those days, there were many disciples under the master, and each of them had their own strengths. Only Dao Qin was ordinary. He was only diligent because his aptitude was ordinary, but he was willing to work hard. Master said that in fact, this kind of person was the most terrible. He worked hard every day and cultivated every moment," Dao Ling sighed a few times.
Then, he said, "In the next few days, I will practice the Tianyi Qi-training Scripture in seclusion to break through the third level. You will be responsible for everything on Mount Xuankong and prepare for the arrival of the immortal master. But if I haven't come out of seclusion, no matter what happens, don't disturb me, understand?"
When Xuan Chengzi heard that, he was not very excited about taking charge of Mount Xuankong. Instead, he frowned and said, "If Martial Uncle Dao Qin comes, what should I do?"
Dao Ling smiled and said, "Kill."
Just now, he was still sighing with emotion about the friendship of fellow disciples, but at this time, he was not softhearted.
Friendship was friendship, and choice was choice.
Those who had different ways should be killed. Only my way can prosper.
"I understand." Xuan Chengzi turned around and went out.
The door of the stone palace rumbled as it turned and slowly closed.
Dao Ling watched Xuan Chengzi's figure disappear in the gradually closing door gap, and a trace of satisfaction appeared on his face. Although Xuan Chengzi was a disciple he had accepted in recent years, he was the one he was most satisfied with. The key was that Xuan Chengzi was not tempted by the power and status of this secular world. The only thought in his mind was martial arts. He devoted himself to martial arts, which made Dao Ling vaguely see himself in those days.
The door was completely closed.
Dao Ling closed his eyes and began to run his cultivation method to practice in seclusion.
Suddenly, there were wisps of the aura of the Way of Heaven circulating around his body. Between breaths, strange Taoist patterns flashed and Taoist laws circulated. This was not the highest secret cultivation method of Qingcheng Sect, nor was it the way of using it in this world.
It was a cultivation method from outer space.
…
…
Thousands of miles away from Mount Qingcheng.
There was an ancient Taoist temple in the deep mountains, which was rarely visited.
"Junior Brother Dao Lan, are you really not going to Mount Xuankong with us to clean up the sect for Master? This kind of thing is your duty. "Dao Qin, the abbot of Daoyin Temple, looked at a sloppy middle-aged Taoist and said earnestly.
The middle-aged Taoist was dressed in a tattered and greasy Taoist robe and barefoot in straw sandals. When the wind blew, his hairy thighs were exposed. He was holding a fat and tender boiled chicken in his hands and gobbled it up. His mouth was greasy, and he did not look like a Taoist at all.
Hearing that, the sloppy Taoist said carelessly, "Fighting and killing are not what we monks should do. Cleaning up the sect is too violent and bloody. Why don't we all come here to bask in the sun and chant scriptures? In a few hundred years, Dao Ling, that ambitious guy, will die of old age. Or, in a few thousand years, we can go ahead and wait for him in the underground. Anyway, people will die …"
"Master was killed," Dao Zhen said.
As the last disciple of Dao Chongyang, he had never seen this Senior Brother Dao Lan before. When he joined the sect, Dao Qin, Dao Lan, and many other senior brothers had already left the mountain to establish their own sects.
After meeting up with Senior Brother Dao Qin, he learned that there was such a weirdo in the sect.
"In theory, it's impossible. That old guy is so cunning. How could he be killed by someone? But judging from your expressions, this matter is actually true … Well, Dao Ling, that idiot, when did he start scheming against that old guy? "Dao Lan said incredulously.
Hearing that, Dao Zhen could not help but show a trace of anger on his face. How dare he call his late master that? Even after hearing the news of his master's death, he still showed a look of indifference. If Dao Lan were not his senior brother and had a higher seniority, he would have scolded him.
Dao Qin hurriedly tugged at Dao Zhen.
As a disciple who joined the sect later, Dao Zhen was not clear about some things, but Dao Qin understood that the relationship between Senior Brother Dao Lan and his master was a little special.
If the other disciples of his master all revered him and regarded his master as their lifelong idol, only this Junior Brother Dao Lan was like a teacher and a friend to his master. They were vaguely on equal footing.
Back then, his master had intended to entrust the Qingcheng Sect to Dao Lan. Unexpectedly, when Dao Lan found out about it, he was so scared that his face turned pale. He thought that his master was harming him and preventing him from living the free life he yearned for. He claimed that he would become a winner in life who drank the strongest wine, ate the best dishes, rode the fastest horse, used the best sword, and slept with the most beautiful woman. Therefore, he left the sect and didn't come back until ten years later. When he came back, the handsome and elegant Senior Martial Brother Dao Lan in the past had become a lazy and sloppy man. He was even lazier than before and didn't have the heart to cultivate. Like a wild crane, he didn't care about martial arts cultivation at all. So his master had to give up and find another successor.
No one knew what had happened during the ten years that Junior Fellow Apprentice Dao Lan had been missing. But Dao Qin was sure that something must have happened. That was why Dao Lan, who used to be lazy but high-spirited and paid attention to his appearance, had turned into a real sloppy and sloppy person.
"Junior Brother, I heard that the flat peaches in the back mountain of Xuankong Mountain are about to ripen," Dao Qin suddenly said inexplicably.
Dao Lan's eyes suddenly lit up. "Really?"
Dao Qin nodded very seriously.
Dao Lan said, "You are an honest man. You won't lie to me. If you say the peaches are ripe, then they must be ripe. Haha, what are we waiting for? Let's go to Xuankong Mountain now and kill that little b * stard Dao Ling to avenge our master … By the way, do you know how many fruits that flat peach has borne, Senior Brother?"
Dao Zhen was speechless.
He suddenly felt that it might be a mistake to come to this Senior Brother Dao Lan.
Thinking of this Taoist temple in the depths of the mountain, there was no one except Dao Lan. The house had collapsed, weeds were everywhere, and the name of the Taoist temple was "I just want to sleep and eat alone. Don't mess with me. Even if the sky falls down, I'm a bastard." Dao Zhen increasingly felt that he had found the wrong person.
As for the flat peaches in the back mountain, what was that?
He didn't seem to have heard of it.
But one thing was certain. Dao Lan's sudden change of expression and his generous, awe-inspiring, and impatient expression had perfectly explained his real purpose … He was not going to clean up the mess for his master. He was clearly going to steal the peaches, wasn't he?
"My master is not as good as the peaches?"
…
…
"Li Mu?"
"Lord Taibai of the Western Qin!"
"The young Great Sage!"
Waves of exclamations emerged from Beggar Island like a tide.
When the experts of the Beggar Gang saw the young man in the sky with short hair and beggar's clothes, they could not help but be shocked. "How could such a famous man appear in the Beggar Gang?"
The two great elders, Miraculous Fist and Shadowless Roamer, also looked at Li Mu in disbelief.
Nowadays, who in the world did not know the name of Lord Taibai?
Lu Changfu, the honest man, was even more dumbfounded … "Did he bring Lord Taibai to Beggar Island?" "This … What a big surprise!"
