Such an internal structure made him feel that something was not right. There was also a faint movement coming from the Guanyin statue under his feet.
He took the bronze mirror from its belt. Before he could jump down from the statue's shoulder, there was already a creaking sound coming from the underground palace. This movement was much stronger than the previous mechanism. The ground was buzzing and the entire underground palace was shaking violently.
Daoye, who had almost jumped down, hung on the statue's head with one arm. He quickly scanned the surroundings with his flashlight. It was not a good thing to make a mistake in such a situation.
Something black sprinkled down from above. He shone the flashlight up and found that the dome was cracking.
"Monkey, the dome is collapsing. Go!" Daoye roared. He had already jumped down from the statue's shoulder.
However, he was unlucky. A huge falling stone smashed him down from the sky.
When he raised his head while lying on the ground and coughing blood, he saw the thin man's figure flashing in the midst of the falling stones. He rolled into the tunnel, and then his vision went black and he lost consciousness …
His mind was in a mess. The splitting headache receded like the tide. He slowly opened his eyes. The light was dim and the flames were flickering.
He looked left and right and found the source of the light. It was a torch stuck on a pillar. He seemed to be in a dilapidated temple with an ancient style. He didn't know where he was, but he guessed that the monkey who had escaped had saved him.
The feeling of being smashed was still there. Based on the weight of the stone, even if he did not die, he would not be much better off. He was already very lucky to be alive.
Based on his experience, when a person was seriously injured, it was better not to make any strenuous movements. Although the body did not feel any pain, it could be due to the numbness of the nerves.
He first moved his fingers to confirm that they could move freely. He was fine!
He moved his palms to his arms. He could move them freely. He was fine!
He then lifted his feet, bent his knees and stretched his thighs. He was still fine!
He was pleasantly surprised. He put his hands on the ground and was about to test the condition of his body. Suddenly, he saw an old face with a smile blocking his line of sight. The hairpin, the bun, and the style of the clothes. It was an old man dressed in ancient clothes.
"Little brother, you're awake? Looks like this old man is really lucky. "The old man smiled and put his hand on his shoulder to help him up.
Daoye maintained his vigilance. He wanted to circulate his Qi to be on guard, but he found that he couldn't adjust his inner force. It was probably because he was seriously injured. However, after sitting up and twisting his body, he didn't find anything wrong with his body. Only the back of his head was aching, as if he had suffered a heavy blow.
Looking around the dilapidated temple, his gaze fell on the old man's face and he asked, "Old Brother, this is …" As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he realized that there was something wrong with his voice. It sounded a little immature, probably because he was injured. He coughed dryly and continued to ask, "Where is this?"
"Brother?" The old man was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly laughed and said, "Young people have a big tone. Alright, old brother is old brother, I like that. I'm not sure what this place is called, and I don't have the energy to investigate it. Anyway, it's in a mountain cave in Ziyun Prefecture of the Yan Kingdom. "
Yan City of Ziyun? Daoye was at a loss. What was this?
He couldn't help but look at the old man up and down. He found that there was a large patch of blood on the old man's clothes, and he could faintly smell the smell of blood. His face was a little pale, as if he was injured, but his eyes were still clear. He asked, "May I know your name, old brother?"
The old man smiled and said, "I'm Dongguo Haoran, a disciple of the Shangqing Sect."
Daoye was stunned again. He heard the words clearly, but he didn't understand what they meant. He looked at the old man up and down again. He was wearing an ancient costume and spoke with an ancient meaning. Was this old man too immersed in his role? If you want to play an ancient person, you should at least act like one. An ancient person speaks fluent Mandarin? He suspected that someone was playing with him, so he turned around and shouted, "Monkey! Monkey … "
The old man was also stunned and said, "I've just arrived, and I didn't see any monkeys. Are there any monkeys in the forest nearby?"
Without the monkey's response, how could he appear here was still a question. However, the person who could get him out of the ancient tomb was definitely not simple. Daoye said in a deep voice, "Old brother, may I know which path you're on?"
The old man smiled and said, "The Shangqing Sect is naturally on the right path."
Daoye sneered, "Old brother, it's no fun if you continue like this. Let's be frank."
"Okay!" The old man nodded and said, "I'm seriously injured, and I don't have much time left. You may not understand what I mean, but you just need to remember one thing. The Shanghai Sect is also in Ziyun Prefecture, about three hundred miles away from here. There's a river not far from the foot of the mountain. You can go straight down and stop when you reach a cliff and a waterfall. That beautiful place is where the Shanghai Sect is located. Do you understand?"
After he finished speaking, the old man sat cross-legged and gently rotated his palm in front of his chest.
Daoye instantly turned pale with fright. He realized that he was being held by an invisible force and couldn't move at all. His whole body gently floated off the ground. He was shocked. He didn't expect that there would be someone in this world with such profound internal energy. It was so profound that he couldn't even imagine it. He originally thought that his cultivation level was already considered to be the top master in Jianghu, but now it seemed that he was just a grain of rice competing with the bright moon. As the saying goes, there's always someone better than you.
The old man suddenly hit his own chest with his palm and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The blood formed into a ball and floated in the air. The old man inserted his finger into the ball of blood floating in front of him and stirred it quickly. The blood ball bounced out one after another bloody runes. The runes floated out and floated around Daoye's body.
Such a strange and magical scene shocked Daoye. He couldn't even dream of such a profound level of internal energy control.
As more and more runes bounced out, the blood ball became smaller and smaller. Finally, it disappeared and turned into thirty-six bloody runes that revolved around Daoye's body.
The old man suddenly stirred both of his hands, and the floating Daoye's whole body also started to rotate up, down, left and right.
The old man struck out with his palm again and again. Every strike landed on the rotating bloody runes. The bloody runes quickly condensed and turned into a red light. They accurately entered into Daoye's meridians and acupoints.
The feeling of something drilling into his body was so painful that Daoye broke out in a cold sweat.
When all thirty-six bloody runes had been infused into Daoye's body, the old man raised his palm. Slowly, Daoye also floated down and sat cross-legged in front of him. He looked at the old man with a dumbfounded expression.
The old man's dignified expression revealed a faint smile. However, the light in his eyes had dimmed. He said in a weak voice, "I used the secret method of Shangqing Sect to transform the rest of my cultivation into thirty-six protective talismans. They will protect you and ward off evil spirits. If you follow the route I told you, it should be enough to escort you to Shangqing Sect. My injury is too serious and my life is hanging by a thread. I can't go back to Shangqing Sect. It is my luck and also the luck of Shangqing Sect to be able to meet Little Brother in this dying moment. It is also Little Brother's luck that Little Brother can meet me. It can be said that we are destined to be master and disciple. Being my disciple is better than staying in this mountain cave and being a villager in this chaotic world. Presumably, you have no reason to refuse. When you go to Shangqing Sect, just say that you are my disciple. The protective talismans that I have infused into your body are the proof. They will believe you. "
Daoye blinked his eyes as he looked at the old man, digesting his words.
The old man took out a bronze mirror from his bosom and handed it to him. He said, "In order to get this thing, my life has been ruined. The Sect Leader of Shangqing Sect, Tang Mu, is my Shixiong. You take this thing to Shangqing Sect and give it to my Shixiong. You must remember, this thing must not be revealed to other people. You can only give it to my Shixiong. It must not fall into other people's hands. Do you understand? "
Daoye nodded subconsciously. He reached out to take the bronze mirror and looked at it. His heart was beating wildly, full of surprise and doubt. This … this should be the ancient bronze mirror that he had taken from the statue of Guanyin. He could not be sure because he did not look at it carefully at that time. But the bronze mirror in his hand looked very similar.
He raised his head to look at the old man. The supernatural power of the old man just now made him believe something, but this bronze mirror somewhat pulled him back to reality.
He wanted to ask something, but who knew that as soon as he opened his mouth, the old man closed his eyes. With a smile on his face, he neatly fell on his body.
"Old brother! Old brother … "Daoye patted his body and called out twice. Seeing that there was no response, he reached out to test his breath and felt the pulse of the old man's neck. He was dead!
After repeatedly confirming that the old man was really dead, Daoye was dumbfounded for a long time. Was it necessary to play a joke on him or make it sound so real? He was really dead!
He slowly laid the old man's body flat and looked at the bronze mirror in his hand. Only then did he notice that he was also wearing an ancient costume. The shape of his palms was also not like his own palms. He felt a little uncomfortable on the top of his head. He raised his hand to touch it and then pulled it. Pain! It was a real bun!
He could not help but climb up and look around. Suddenly, there was a "hoarse" scream from outside. It sounded like the voice of a crow.
Daoye quickly walked to the door, wanting to see the situation outside to confirm something. He opened the door bolt and walked out to the stairs outside.
The bright moon was in the sky, and the undulating mountain range under the undulating, cold stars filled the night sky. Another "hoarse" scream from the big tree outside the house attracted his attention. It really seemed to be a crow, but the crow's eyes were clearly visible, faintly emitting a red light. It seemed to be staring at the bronze mirror in his hand.
The red light in the crow's eyes lit up. It flapped its wings and burst into a cloud of black fog. The front part of the crow turned into a human shape, and with a wave of its hand, a shining broadsword slashed at him.
Daoye had never seen or heard of such a strange situation. He was shocked and subconsciously dodged, but his body seemed to be unable to keep up with the reaction speed he was used to. Seeing that he was about to die under the broadsword, he panicked and reflexively waved his arm to block. A hot current rushed from his arm to his palm. His palm was unbearably hot. A red light shot out and turned into a giant blood-colored rune, colliding with the crow-man who was rushing at him.
Boom! A muffled thunder-like sound reverberated. The crow-man who collided with the blood-colored rune was instantly shaken into smoke, and the blood-colored rune also disappeared.
Daoye, who was waving his arm and bending his waist, did not move for a while. He seemed to be in disbelief. Was this his masterpiece? He could not help but think of what the old man had said after passing on the technique.
Damn, it seems a little dangerous outside!
