Chapter 301 Traces of Moon Worship

"What did you say?"

Jiujianxian's eyes widened, and he actually fell from the tree in a state of confusion. Even so, he didn't scream in pain. He just stared at Yi Buhuo and waited for his explanation.

"You are a guy who abandoned his wife and children. You are guilty of so many crimes. Shouldn't you be panicked and regretful when you see your children? Isn't it normal to shed tears?"

Yi Buhuo just spread his hands and said, "It must be the guilt that makes you afraid to face him."

"You said she is my daughter?"

The Jiujianxian still couldn't believe it, and lay on the ground in despair, muttering to himself.

"How could she be my daughter?"

"Why can't she be your daughter?"

Yi Buhuo asked curiously: "Anu is from the Nanzhao Kingdom, and is now about the same age as Ling'er. Don't you know where you were when she was born and what you did?"

"But this doesn't mean she is my daughter."

Jiujianxian suddenly sat up and looked at him, "Are you kidding me? Let me tell you, you can't just joke about this matter."

"Then how do you explain that you shed tears when you see her?"

Yi Buhuo smiled and said, "Just ask her for details. If you are still not sure, then ask the woman you let down. There will always be an answer."

"Go, let's go now!"

Jiu Jianxian turned over and jumped up, pulling him to go on the road.

"where to?"

"Go to Anu and find out who her mother is!"

"Are you just looking for Anu?"

Yi Buhuo smiled slightly, "It seems you still don't dare to face it."

"A lot of nonsense!"

The Jiujianxian threw the wine gourd, cast a spell to enlarge his body, jumped up with Yi Buhuo, and soared into the air the next moment.

At this time, he didn't care whether Yi Buhuo would soil his gourd because of his fear of heights. He just wanted to see Anu as quickly as possible.

"I stayed in Shushan for a month, and I didn't come to accompany you to find your relatives."

Yi Buhuo sighed and looked at the retreating clouds around him, feeling slightly absent-minded.

The old man of the Sword Master stood there motionless every day, and there was no one in Shushan to talk to. He couldn't hold it in anymore, so he thought of going out to relax and look for the missing Jiu Sword Master.

He was also worried that he had missed the plot. During his absence, if Bai Yue took action, a tragedy might inevitably happen.

"If you ask me, let's go directly to Nanzhao Kingdom. Then everything will be revealed and you can renew your relationship. Everyone will be happy."

Yi Buhuo encouraged Jiujianxian's nerves, but unfortunately he turned a deaf ear and seemed to be concentrating on his way.

"You have practiced Taoism for so many years and have not gained much understanding. It proves that you are not suitable for this. Now that there is a new generation, it is better to go down the mountain and enjoy the happiness of family. It is much happier than practicing alone."

"If I had a choice, I would definitely go home right now to have my wife and children on the hot bed. What's the point of blowing air here?"

Yi Buhuo was still chattering, and the Jiujianxian couldn't stand it and directly controlled the gourd to make a sharp turn, almost throwing him off.

"Can you shut up!"

"Actually, you can just say it, why do you need to play it so thrillingly?"

Yi Buhuo patted his chest, looking shocked. He was quiet for a few seconds, but he couldn't help but want to speak again.

The Jiujianxian seemed to have noticed something. The gourd under him suddenly had no track at all. It was going up, down, left, right, left, and right, which made Yi Buhuo feel dizzy. He filled his mouth with cold wind as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Go on!"

"Don't be complacent. As the saying goes, good medicine tastes bitter but good advice offends the ears. I am good medicine, but you are not a good person. Sooner or later, you will regret it!"

Yi Buhuo raised his middle finger without hesitation. He only thought about the Jiujianxian, but he was repaid with evil by those who did not know what was good or bad.

Wouldn’t it be nice to listen to him and go home and hold your wife and children?
But you know what you are about to fall into is a huge whirlpool!

If you are not careful, it will end in death.

"I just don't want you to die..."

Yi Buhuo sighed, everyone has their own destiny, if they are determined to die, even he can't save him.

For this kind of person, death is a kind of relief, a way of redemption, even if it is saved, it is meaningless, it is just a living corpse.

And Jiu Jianxian is such a person. He has let down a woman for more than ten years, and he even learned that he has a daughter.

He was already tortured in his heart. If Anu really swung his sword at him one day, he would never resist.

The most direct way is to let him escape from this vortex in advance, or to untie his knot.

However, Yi Buhuo has no clue at the moment. How can he understand others if he is so stupid himself?

"We have arrived."

Yi Buhuo lay on the side of the gourd and looked down. Although they were far apart, the mountains, rivers and rivers seemed to be in the palm of his hand, let alone the people.

But he still saw the familiar figures of Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru.

"Isn't the atmosphere right?"

Yi Buhuo and Jiu Jianxian fell down, Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru were holding Tang Yu Xiaobao with all their strength, and behind them, Anu, who had always been carefree and happy, was also crying at this time.

"Master, you came just in time, hurry up and save Elder Shi!"

"What a coincidence? I encountered a separation of life and death as soon as I came here?"

Yi Buhuo raised his head and saw Elder Shi standing stiffly in front of him. He saw at a glance that Elder Shi's arms were surrounded by spiritual power that did not belong to him.

"Did you come here to worship the moon?"

This spiritual power restricted Elder Shi's movements. As soon as he moved, the spiritual power would explode and blow him to pieces!
Such a vicious method is simply torture, and only worshiping the moon can do it.

"Master, please save Elder Shi."

Li Xiaoyao seemed to have seen his savior and stepped in front of him with a look of impatience on his face.

"Why do you want to save?"

Yi Buhuo did not move. He stared at the golden light behind Elder Shi that ordinary people could not see, and explained lightly: "Elder Shi has achieved enlightenment!"

"True?"

Everyone looked over, and Li Xiaoyao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Does that mean he won't die?"

"Death is death, enlightenment is enlightenment, please don't confuse them."

Yi Buhuo shook his head and explained solemnly.

"Then he is still going to die. You should save him. Please, Master."

"Senior, please save your foster father. Tang Yu is willing to do anything to repay his kindness."

Tang Yu Xiaobao rushed over and knelt in front of him without hesitation.

"Elder Shi, what are your thoughts?"

Yi Buhuo ignored their pleas and just looked at Elder Shi.

Although he has never been in contact with Elder Shi, and it seems that he was very annoying in the original plot, but now that he has gained enlightenment, he just let it go.

The decision to save or not to save does not depend on Yi Buhuo, but on Elder Shi himself.

If he just died miserably here, Yi Buhuo would save him no matter what, but now it was not only a choice between life and death.

But when someone becomes enlightened and should go to heaven to enjoy blessings, you drag him back to this human world with countless worries and sorrows. This is your mistake!

A person who attains the Tao can enter the paradise world, which is much happier than the human world. If he goes against the wishes of Elder Shi, it will not be a good thing.

"I don't know what enlightenment is, but my wish has not been fulfilled. I have not eliminated the Moon Worship Sect, and I have not averted the war in Nanzhao Kingdom. I feel very regretful."

Elder Shi sighed. Although Yi Buhuo's description seemed very good, that was not his intention. He just wanted to protect the peace of Nanzhao.

Now I can't see that day coming, how can I be willing to do so.

"I understand."

Yi Buhuo nodded and pointed like a sword. The spirit sword behind Li Xiaoyao was instantly unsheathed, and the spirit sword flew in the air under the expectant eyes of everyone.

While everyone was not paying attention, he secretly stretched out his hand and grabbed the strange spiritual power from Elder Shi's body.

Elder Shi relaxed all over, and regained control of his already stiff arms. He subconsciously relaxed his tense mind and staggered a few steps.

Until the spirit sword had finished its play and returned to Li Xiaoyao's back, no one saw it touching Elder Shi, and looked at Yi Buhuo with doubtful expressions.

"Look at what I do?"

"Master, didn't you want to save Elder Shi? Stop making trouble, okay?"

Li Xiaoyao stared at him with eagerness mixed with anger.

"I saved it."

"Then why didn't I see the function of Cui Hua?"

As soon as Li Xiaoyao finished speaking, the spirit sword behind his back shook, as if to warn him not to talk nonsense.

"I didn't say I would use Cuihua, I just saw that everyone was so sad, let it come out to play and amuse."

Yi Buhuo spread his hands and pointed at Elder Shi with a smile, "Didn't you see that he can already move?"

Looking in the direction he pointed, Elder Shi was already moving his somewhat stiff limbs, but he was not broken into pieces.

"Father!"

Tang Yu Xiaobao rushed over in surprise, feeling as happy as Elder Shi himself.

Anu finally laughed, "Dashi Gu doesn't have to die anymore, that's great!"

The Jiujianxian didn't speak from the beginning to the end, but his eyes followed Anu and the pendant around her waist.

I don't know when the tears fell again, and I couldn't wipe them away.

He already believed Yi Buhuo's words, but he still had one last chance of luck in his heart.

"Master, you came just in time, Ling'er was taken away!"

Li Xiaoyao came back from the enjoyment of Elder Shi and Tang Yu Xiaobao, and suddenly remembered that there were more important things waiting for him to do.

"Also, Ah Qi is also missing. Come with us to rescue people!"

"Yes, Ling'er was taken away by the Sword Master of Shu Mountain. We have to rescue her."

Lin Yueru also explained.

"Ling'er was arrested just after I came out of Shushan?"

Yi Buhuo twitched the corner of his mouth, feeling that things were unpredictable. Could it be that he had just stepped out of the Sword Master's back and left the house?
How is it such a coincidence?
If he didn’t leave early, he wouldn’t leave until later. Just after he left, Ling’er was taken back by the Sword Master…

"What's going on, Ah Qi?"

"Everything is a conspiracy of the Moon Worship Cult. All the coincidences along our journey are their traps. Their purpose is to capture Ling'er!"

Li Xiaoyao told what he had discovered. Here he and Lin Yueru met Liu Jinyuan, who was ordered by the emperor to investigate.

The group of people stayed here for a long time and only parted ways today.

He and Zhao Ling'er broke up peacefully here, Zhao Ling'er set off back to Nanzhao, he and Lin Yueru were preparing to return to Suzhou, and Liu Jinyuan set off early to return to Chang'an.

Unexpectedly, not long after they left, they met an old man in the mountains who was struggling to push a cart. Li Xiaoyao kindly helped him push the cart, and then he told them that a young man who looked like a scholar had been kidnapped by a monster.

Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru chased for a while but failed to find Liu Jinyuan. Only then did they realize that the road the old man pointed out to them was not the direction to Chang'an at all, and they felt something was wrong.

When I went back, I happened to bump into the old man sneaking around. After taking a peek, I realized that he was actually a Moon Worshiper in disguise.

Only then did Li Xiaoyao figure out everything. The Moon Worshiping Sect was trying to get rid of them.

By the time they rushed back to the inn where Zhao Ling'er, Elder Shi and others were, it was already too late.

The ground was littered with the corpses of guards and moon worshipers.

They searched for a long time before they found Elder Shi who had been possessed by the moon worship spell. Then Tang Yu and Anu joined them and learned that Ling'er had been taken away by the Shushan Sword Master.

"Me and Yueru go to find Ah Qi. Master, you must rescue Ling'er!"

Li Xiaoyao has never been so anxious. On one side is Ling'er and on the other is his apprentice. Something happened to them at the same time. He wished he could separate and act at the same time.

"The old man Sword Master may seem unkind, but he actually means well. Ling'er is indeed safe with him. Don't be impatient, just take it one step at a time."

Yi Buhuo patted his shoulder and comforted him.

"You're right, my senior brother is such an unkind person, but the force is guaranteed, so you can rest assured that Ling'er is with him."

Jiu Jianxian agreed with his statement and comforted Li Xiaoyao.

"Baiyue should still be nearby. I'll search first. I'll set off with you to rescue Ah Qi. Drunkard, you protect Elder Shi and the others first. We'll meet up at Shushan."

Yi Buhuo thought about it. It was a month's journey from here to Chang'an. In order to prevent Baiyue from really targeting Liu Jinyuan, it was better for him to go to a safe place together.

But we can't relax here. Worshiping the Moon may not have gone far yet, and if he sees the lively Elder Shi, he may become a monster again.

Just as Jiujianxian wanted to prove Anu's life experience, he asked him to keep an eye on them and escort them back to Shushan first, so that they could get closer to Anu at a close distance.

"You guys go ahead. I'll go around to see if Bai Yue has left."

After sending away Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru, Yi Buhuo looked at Jiujianxian.

"Bai Yue is very strong. You are no match for him. In fact, what I am most worried about is your side."

If Jiu Jianxian and the others really encountered Bai Yue, they might not be able to retreat completely.

"Put this away, it can save lives at critical moments!"

Yi Buhuo thought for a while, then took off the "World's No. [-] Miracle Doctor" token from his waist and gave it to Jiujianxian.

"It has my spiritual power on it. I can use a dimensional slash to protect myself."

After exhorting him, he turned into a spiritual light and soared into the sky. He searched all around, but he didn't find the aura of worshiping the moon before chasing Li Xiaoyao.

Perhaps because of a premonition, Bai Yue left early, or he hid and deliberately avoided his detection.

Anyway, distance is not a problem for Baiyue. Although he has only appeared here before, it is not unusual for him to appear in Nanzhao now.

Yi Buhuo had no intention of knocking on the door now. There was an external pressure moment that made him nervous, which was helpful for him to understand the existence of "Tao".

Worshiping the moon is a catalyst, helping him practice his own way and helping him achieve enlightenment!
