With magical powers, I can quietly meditate on sutras for hundreds of years and become an immortal.

Chapter 40
  Everything is missing.

To be more precise, his whereabouts and life or death are unknown.

On the Mid-Autumn Festival of Tianbao's tenth year, Taoist Tian, ​​who looked tired, brought such news to Li Zhen.

To be honest, Li Zhen was not surprised.

Although Guantian Prison has the great master Zhao Shenyue in charge.

But things in martial arts are never that easy.

Most of them are open guns and hidden arrows, and they are bloody.

Compared to those who died under Taoist Tian.

All things at the moment are just missing, which can be considered lucky enough.

According to Tian Daoren, it was when he was chasing some remnants of the Jianghu sect who assassinated them.

Unfortunately, he slipped and fell into a cliff, his life or death unknown.

After a fruitless search, I could only leave temporarily.

However, Tian Daoren assured Li Zhen that if news about him is found.

I will definitely report it to him as soon as possible.

Li Zhen didn't say anything, just nodded calmly.

The path is chosen by oneself and walked by oneself.

Whatever happens on the way, you can't blame others.

This is what he thinks, and this is how he explains it naturally.

She lowered her head, her eyes red.

There seems to be some unspeakable sentimentality.

But he didn't blame Li Zhen.

Having grown up as an orphan, she understands a truth better.

Everyone is responsible for their own choices.

When all things follow this path, he can't blame others.

Just, from now on.

She became a little more silent.

[You have briefly browsed the "Wanshou Taoist Canon", but you are restless and have gained very little]

It seemed that things about Wanwu disturbed Li Zhen's peaceful mind.

In addition, the progress in spiritual practice is somewhat unsatisfactory.

This made Li Zhen a little agitated recently.

I can't concentrate when I'm reading, and my whole body seems listless.

It seems that he has no interest in anything and is boring.

He is obviously just middle-aged.

But my current mental state.

He is already a bit similar to Eunuch Yu who had no desires or desires back then.

"It can't go on like this!"

Sitting up in the attic.

Thinking about his mental state, Li Zhen felt something was wrong.

Inappropriate, inappropriate!
  Could it be that these young men have had too much contact with their father-in-laws.

Unknowingly, he was also infected?
  if so.

What is the purpose of practicing hard and trying to pursue immortality!
  Is it because you want to be a wooden person after having a long life?

In that case, what's the point of living?
  Food, scenery, beauties.
  The greatest pursuit of a layman’s life.

Now I have no interest in these things.

That's pretty cool.

"no!"

Li Zhen stood up and walked out of the Chuixiang Tower for the first time in months.

"I have to go find Murong Tao and try to reconcile him."

Murong Tao, a bald man, has a well-known unique hobby.

He likes to go to Ningxiang Tower to have tea during the day.

According to him, it is a completely different experience than going at night.

That time when you are the only man in the whole place.

As long as you have money, everyone will be around you.

It's like being an emperor, making people feel ecstatic.

Li Zhen usually looked down upon the emperor.

But today, he felt the need to experience what it was like to be an emperor.

When Li Zhen found Murong Tao in Ningxiang Tower.

He was surrounded by a group of warblers and swallows.

The music of Sizhu was overwhelming, and this guy squinted his eyes and was intoxicated.

It wasn't until Li Zhen sat next to him that he realized what he was doing.

She was stunned for a moment, then blinked at him.

He shouted loudly to everyone around him:

"Everyone, this is my good brother Murong Tao"

Listen to music on the hook.

It is indeed the place that can arouse people's passion the most.

After experiencing it, Li Zhen suddenly became full of passion for life.

But although Liangyuan is good, it is not a place that is often visited.    Furthermore, looking back and summarizing afterwards.

Li Zhen felt that the main reason for such empty emotions was.

Or his will is not strong enough and he is easily influenced by external objects.

With such a state of mind and cultivation, how can we pursue immortality?

I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until he finds a way forward.

I have been consumed by the rolling dust of the world and lost my enterprising spirit.

So, in your spare time.

He found another thing to do to relieve his emotions and hone his will.

fishing!

After all, the Air Force is indeed a very draining business.

A few days later.

Murong Tao came to Chuixiang Tower.

But this time, he seemed a little different from before.

He didn't hold the wine bottle that he always kept in his hands.

He doesn't look as disheveled as before.

Instead, he was dressed neatly and had a luggage on his back, as if he was going on a long trip.

"Why, when will it be your turn to go out to work in Beijing?"

Li Zhen, who was fishing by the lotus pond, raised his head, glanced at him, and asked casually.

However, Murong Tao nodded and then shook his head.

A nostalgic smile appeared on that face that was so rough that it had nothing to do with the Tao in his name:

"It has been thirty years since I left home at forty, but it's time to leave Beijing and return to my hometown."

"If I don't go back, my stupid son may destroy my family fortune."

Based on Li Zhen’s observations over the years and browsing records in books.

During the Great Monday Dynasty, the life span of ordinary people was generally between fifty and sixty.

Martial arts experts can reach the highest level of eighty or ninety due to their true energy.

And if it is congenital, the life span of two Jiazi is the recognized limit.

Although Murong Tao never said it.

But after achieving innate ability, Li Zhen has realized that he is also an innate strong person.

I just don’t know why I was hiding in the dungeon in the Huainan Palace back then.

Now he is over seventy years old, which is considered a long life among ordinary people.

But among the innate warriors, he is still considered a young man.

"So, you came to me today to say goodbye."

Li Zhen raised his head and looked at him.

His expression was calm, without any disturbance.

After all these years, he has become accustomed to parting.

Even though he is not a hard-hearted person, he does not have too much sentimentality.

"Yes."

Murong Tao nodded slightly.

There was an unnatural emotion on his face.

"Also, come and make up for the book and story I owe according to your rules."

With that said, he sat next to Li Zhen.

He took out a book from the package and handed it to Li Zhen.

He took it with a strange expression.

I glanced at the crooked title of the book above: "The Stars Move"

I was wondering when he had climbed to the Chuixiang Tower.

I saw him touching his head and saying a little embarrassedly:

"I sneaked in several times while you were in Xiantian."

"Good on you Murong Tao!"

Li Zhen looked at him and laughed a little angrily.

He asked why this old guy didn't bother to go up to the second floor for free.

It turned out that he had gone there secretly a long time ago.

"That's not true. I'm here to make it up again."

Murong Tao whispered, knowing that he was in the wrong.

"Okay, tell your story!"

Li Zhen rolled his eyes at him and stopped worrying.

Although he knew in his heart that he could make up for the reason.

There is a high probability that it is also because he has also become an innate.

However, this is the way the world is, and no one can tell anyone.

And Li Zhen doesn't think that he wants to leave the capital if he doesn't make up the votes today.

You can escape that person's attention.

Glancing at Tiandu Peak in the distance, Li Zhen grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds.

Listening to his story with great interest.
