Xianlu

Chapter 113
Along the direction when You Bing came, the two walked side by side, and suddenly disappeared in the gray mist, with only faint blue smoke from the extinguished bonfire behind them.

With You Bing leading the way, Xu Dao didn't walk for long before he came to a stone wall, and the two of them were directly submerged in it.

After entering the cave, he found that this place was different from his cave. It was not a cave dug out of the cliff, but a deep valley selected for transformation.

The valley is not big, with a radius of only a few tens of feet. The cliffs on the top are towering, and the mist billows, making people wonder how deep it is.Because of the array, the bottom of the valley is not dark and humid, but there is still moonlight shining on the bamboo forest, and the leaves are swaying and giving off a faint glow.

After You Bing's arrangement, the bamboo planted here focused on pruning bamboo, and it grew according to the direction. It may be a preparation for the arrangement of a more powerful formation in the future.

In addition, there is water flowing down from the cliff, flowing in the cave through bamboo pipes, and there are small waterwheels turning, and there will be knocking sounds from time to time.

Such a quiet and exquisite scene is far more beautiful than Xu Dao's cave.

After stepping into this place, there is a simple bamboo house in the middle of the valley, the appearance of which made Xu Dao feel even more familiar.

Thinking back in his heart, Xu Dao immediately remembered.

Two and a half years ago, after he broke through to Qi refining, he met You Bing again, in a bamboo forest.That day, he also took You Bing's innocent body in a simple bamboo house and left some things for him.

Looking around, there are no other buildings in You Bing's cave except the simple bamboo house.

Xu Dao looked at the familiar bamboo house, and thought to himself: "I don't know if she wants to remind myself not to forget the hardships and practice hard, or to keep it as a souvenir..."

You Bing, who was at the side, saw Xu Dao recognize the bamboo house in front of her, and couldn't help but feel a little shame in her eyes.

Before Xu Dao could think too much, You Bing said, "Fellow Taoist, please come in." She stepped forward, opened the simple fence of the bamboo house, and invited Xu Dao to enter.

After entering the room, Xu Dao took a quick glance and found that the layout of the room was similar to before, with only a few things added.

With a smile on his face, Xu Daochong cupped his hands to You Bing: "I'm bothering fellow Taoist."

There were no tables or chairs in the room, probably because no guests had been here before, and as soon as You Bing invited them, the two sat cross-legged on the bamboo bed.

Xu Dao sat down and pressed the bamboo bed. He found that the bed was quite old, and the surface was smooth as if waxed. He didn’t know if You Bing bought it when he opened up the cave, or when the two had sex for the first time. That bamboo bed.

Xu Dao guessed that the latter was more likely.

You Bing, who was on the opposite side, saw Xu Dao's little movements, and secretly guessed what Xu Dao was thinking. The two dimples of her neck blushed quietly, but fortunately it was not obvious.

Pretending not to notice, You Bing took a kettle and poured two cups of tea. She placed it in front of the two of them, and said:

"The Dao Discussion Conference is over, and now is a good time to retreat. Fellow Daoists are looking for me at this time, but is there something urgent?"

Hearing You Bing's question, Xu Dao's expression also became serious.He looked at You Bing, thought for a while, and didn't directly explain, but took out the written letter from his sleeve and handed it to the other party first.

"This time I want to leave the mountain. The reason has already been written. It's all in the letter. Fellow Daoists should read it first."

Hearing Xu Dao's words, You Bing's eyes showed surprise, she quickly took Xu Dao's letters, lowered her head, and looked through them one by one.

Xu Dao wrote quite detailed in the letter, after a hundred or so breaths, You Bing raised his head again.

At this time, her eyes were filled with shock, and she showed expressions of bewilderment, suspicion, and horror.

Even though she knew that Xu Dao was not someone who would joke about big things, she subconsciously asked, "Is what fellow Daoist said true?"

Xu Dao calmly nodded his head affirmatively.He said: "I witnessed all the actions of the Taoist priests at the Dao Discussion Conference that day. It was so weird and bloody that it was hard to describe."

Shaking his head, Xu Dao said again: "Fortunately, Pindao's cultivation had not reached the late stage of Qi refining at that time, so he could escape the catastrophe."

After receiving Xu Dao's affirmative answer, You Bing's face turned embarrassing for a moment, and she whispered, "No wonder fellow Daoists behaved differently than usual that day, and they will leave me a message after the Dao Discussion Conference."

The "one word" that You Bing said was exactly the sentence "This place is not suitable to stay for a long time" that Xu Dao wrote on the storage bag with his magic power.

At that time, Xu Dao was worried that after the meeting, it would be difficult for the two to meet again. Even if he left letters and other things, they might be lost, so he first hinted at You Bing to leave an impression on the other party.

Fortunately, nothing else happened. The two of them are now talking face to face, and they can clarify the matter.

You Bing squeezed the letter in his hand, looked at Xu Dao in front of him, and hesitated to speak, but Xu Dao had already given her a clear answer, so she didn't know what to ask for a while.

Forcibly suppressing the churning and terrified emotions in his heart, You Bing lowered his eyes and began to think carefully.

At this time, Xu Dao held a cup of tea and said in his mouth: "Actually, you can also think about it yourself. The Bone Temple has been established for two or three hundred years, but there are only nine foundation-building Taoist priests in the temple, including the so-called master of the temple."

Xu Dao sipped his tea and said, "As for the Black Mountain Divine Banquet, which happens every 60 years, logically speaking, the number of Taoist priests in the temple should not be so small. Pindao originally thought that the gap between Qi refining and foundation building was too big , The Taoist priests see the head but not the tail, rarely show up, and are mysterious, so they don't feel very strange."

"But now that we know the true appearance of the Temple of White Bones, it can be easily explained that the temple is just stocking for food."

After listening to Xu Dao's words, You Bing lowered his head and said in response: "Have all the disciples who can build foundations been eaten by Taoist priests..."

Having said that, she suddenly raised her head, her eyes momentarily surprised: "Xu Dao, have you reached the late stage of Qi refining?"

Since Xu Dao entered You Bing's cave, he loosened the breath-holding jade hook, and did not deliberately conceal his cultivation.And You Bing was still stunned by the news revealed by Xu Dao just now, and only now reacted.

In response to You Bing's surprise, Xu Dao nodded directly, "The spell given to me by the Taoist priest that day has been cultivated to a great degree by me, and it is a repelling spell. With this spell, I have broken through to the realm of repelling objects." , Entering the late stage of gas refining."

For a moment, You Bing was startled and stunned, she opened her mouth, looked at Xu Dao and didn't know what to say, and couldn't help murmuring: "It's only a short month, the late stage of Qi refining... no wonder you have to leave the bones immediately Mountain."

Xu Dao has stated in the letter that once a Taoist is promoted to the late stage of Qi refining, he will attract the attention of the Taoist priests.

And Xu Dao also thought about whether he should wait until he left the Bone Temple before starting to break through the realm.After thinking about it, he gave up this plan.

"Of course." Seeing You Bing lost his mind for a moment, Xu Dao nodded and asked directly: "Fellow Taoist, do you want to go down the mountain with me and stay away from this place?"

You Bing's eyes were in a trance, she heard Xu Dao's question, and immediately came back to her senses, but You Bing didn't respond directly, but frowned, and a look of calculation flashed in her eyes.

Xu Dao was not surprised to see her like this.

Although he had the intention of taking You Bing to leave together, whether he really wanted to go with him or not depended on the other party's will.

It is said that although the relationship between the two is close and they have the reality of husband and wife, they are not husband and wife, but Taoist couples.You Bing is a Taoist, not a mortal woman, so she will naturally have her own considerations.

Sure enough, You Bing asked again: "If it is Lishan, is there a problem with the safety of fellow Taoists? I heard that there is a soul lamp in the temple, which can track disciples and judge life and death."

Hearing this, Xu Dao didn't care on his face, he smiled and said to You Bing: "Don't worry about this, have you ever lit that Laoshizi Soul Lamp in the temple?"

You Bing shook his head, looking a little confused.

It must be known that before Xu Dao entered Qi refining, he was thinking about how to betray the Bone Concept. He has studied this quite a bit, so he explained:

"There is indeed a soul lamp in the view. The soul lamp can be traced thousands of miles away to judge the life and death of a disciple, but it costs a lot of money to light a soul lamp. Only those who have achieved the later stages of Taoism will leave a soul lamp in the temple."

"Even if the soul lamp is lit, Taoist priests can rely on the soul lamp to track down others, but they cannot directly use the soul lamp to curse and kill, and they cannot threaten their lives... At least in the Temple of White Bones, there is no such ability."

After listening to Xu Dao's explanation, You Bing's frown still did not loosen. She stared at Xu Dao and asked, "But friend Daoist is already in the late stage of Qi refining, did you leave your soul lamp behind?"

Xu Dao shook his head and said, "Nothing."

"Generally speaking, when the disciples of Guanzhong go to the hut to exchange for the spell of repelling objects, they will be asked to leave a soul lamp as a restraint."

A happy smile appeared on Xu Dao's face, "The dormitory is not open now, so how can I go to the dormitory to exchange for the repelling spell? Thanks to the Taoist priest who gave it, otherwise, if I want to break through to the late stage of Qi refining, I will not be able to do so." We have to find another way outside the observation.”

After finishing speaking, the expression on You Bing's face finally calmed down, she bowed towards Xu Dao, and said in her mouth, "Congratulations, Fellow Daoist."

After explaining for a long time, Xu Daofu asked: "Fellow Taoist, would you like to leave the mountain with me?"

But unexpectedly, You Bing slowly shook his head.

This made Xu Dao frowned slightly. He thought that talking about the soul lamp would relieve the other party's worries, but he didn't expect You Bing to refuse directly.

At that moment, Xu Dao secretly wondered whether You Bing was doubting what he said.

Before Xu Dao could say anything, You Bing seemed to see through his thoughts, shook his head and said, "It's not that I don't believe what Fellow Daoist said."

After pondering for a while, You Bing spit out: "Fellow Daoist is already in the late stage of Qi refining. With the talent of Fellow Daoist, I am afraid that he will start preparing for foundation building in the near future. Staying in the meditation will be dangerous but not beneficial. Fellow Daoist must You have to go down the mountain to walk, and you will have a lot to do."

With melancholy in You Bing's eyes, he said again in a harsh voice:
"As for me, I am only at the early stage of Qi refining. I just want to break through to the middle stage of Qi refining and cultivate the Great Sun Breathing Technique. I don't know how much money and time I will spend. If I follow my fellow Taoists, it will only be a burden. "

Still before Xu Dao could speak, You Bing smiled slightly, and reached out his hand to stop him from speaking.

"When I read the letter written by fellow daoist, I already had a decision in my heart. I asked about the soul lamp just now, because I was worried for fellow daoist. If there is a way to solve the soul lamp, I will continue to stay in the temple, and I will definitely relieve this worry for fellow daoist .”

Exhaling a breath, You Bing continued: "Fortunately, fellow Taoist is far more thoughtful than I am, so there is no need to worry about this matter."

After saying a few words, You Bing clearly showed that he had made up his mind.

Xu Dao looked at her, and after pondering for a while, he cupped his hands suddenly, and said, "Since fellow daoist has made a decision, the poor dao will not interfere. It's just..."

"If you want to stay in this mountain just because of the 'cumbersomeness', then you will be kidnapped, and the poor Taoist will also kidnap fellow Taoists."

Xu Dao stared at You Bing, narrowing his eyes slightly.

When You Bing heard this, her face was stunned. She was sitting upright with her hands folded on her knees, but now she couldn't help but slightly lowered her head, and her face was obviously blushing.

But after only a moment of shyness, You Bing raised his head again and said, "No!"

His face is calm, his eyes are clear and bright.

"Although this is a dragon's pool and a tiger's lair, there is currently a shortage of manpower in the Temple of the White Bones. How could it not be a chance for the poor?"

"The cultivation base of Yipindao is only in the early stage of Qi refining. Taoist priests want to eat, and they will not eat Pindao first. According to what the Taoist friends said in the letter, after the Black Mountain God Banquet, the situation may be different from previous ones. ...Even as always, Pindao can leave the mountain to look for you when he is on the verge of the late stage of Qi refining."

With a bright smile, You Bing suddenly picked up the letter in his hand, pointed to the letter paper and said:
"Beyond that, this is also a great opportunity! The belongings left by fellow Taoists in the temple can also help the poor to practice, but I don't know if the friends of the Tao will have been ruined by the poor when they return to the Taoist temple."

Since Xu Dao was going down the mountain, he simply wrote down the things that could not be taken away from the mountain, and let You Bing enjoy them by himself.

Among them are the location of the aura cave and the matter about the spiritual veins in the Baimaofeng Cave.

The latter point is a major factor that makes You Bing determined to stay in the Bone View.

You Bing thought to herself that she was not very talented, her cultivation was not very advanced, and she was far from being able to compare with Xu Dao.

Instead of wandering away from the mountain with a bleak future, she might as well risk being devoured by Taoist priests and continue to practice in the temple.

Not to mention anything else, just what Xu Daoxin said about the spirit veins of the wind cave has already made her a great way, far surpassing ordinary people!

After finishing speaking, You Bing bowed down and bowed, without saying a word.

Xu Dao listened, holding the teacup tightly in his hands, with a look of disappointment on his face.

There are fates in the world, my catastrophe, that's life; my chance, that's crisis... How do you know it's not a blessing if you lose your horse?

He immediately laughed, drank the tea in the cup, and let go of his sorrow.

Xu Dao looked down at You Bing, who was lying under him, and said jokingly: "In this case, fellow Daoist got the poor family business for nothing, and you can get compensation."

When You Bing heard it, she closed her eyes, a relaxed smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, then raised her delicate face, looked at Xu Dao, and said teasingly in her eyes:

"How does the master want my slave to repay it?" Inadvertently, she stuck out her tongue and licked her teeth.

Xu Dao looked at the female crown in front of him, and found that although she said she was a slave, her face was not timid, and she was even brighter than before.

There was a rustle.

Xu Dao caressed the other party's blue hair, and couldn't help voicing:

"good……"
