You cultivate immortality, I cultivate merit

On the first day of Shi Xiaoliu's flight, in the evening, they encountered a rainstorm and looked for a safe place to rest.

At night, the rain stopped.

The three of them discussed some places they wanted to go. Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan wanted to go to the capital, while Xia Yu wanted to go to the south.

The three decided to go to the south first, all the way there, and then make other plans after reaching the capital.

After they had discussed it, their subsequent itinerary became more flexible, and the farther Shi Zelan was from the sect, the more he felt the pressure was relieved.

When Shi Xiaoliu and his two companions encountered a prosperous town, they would stay for a few days to experience the bustling scene.

But they had no intention of participating and just watched the hustle and bustle of the mundane world from afar.

Xia Yu said to Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan with some emotion: "When I saw such a lively scene in the past, I couldn't help but go over and join in the fun with them.

But now, I feel their happiness, but I no longer want to participate in it.”

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan felt the same way. Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said, "I used to envy them for being able to enjoy simple happiness."

Shi Zelan smiled and said, "We practitioners should not have too many mixed emotions of sadness and joy towards people and things."

"Hey."

Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu looked at her at the same time: "You have to remember what you said now.

Don't try to intervene secretly whenever you see something unfair."

Shi Zelan listened to their words and sighed, "You should also remember this.

I am very peaceful now and will never meddle in other people's affairs."

After the three of them felt the lively atmosphere of the town, they enjoyed the green all around them as they walked along the country paths.

On the way, they would also stay in the beautiful mountains for a few days, where the three of them would meditate and practice.

Shi Zelan felt his cultivation improving, and said to Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu, "That person must have planted a hidden line in our sect, but I don't know where?"

"Sister Lan, do you have any suspicions?"

"I don't think it's someone from our sect. I suspect it's one or more things with a cursed aura."

The three of them chatted casually for a few words, and the people from the Yunyan Sect's Dharma Hall discovered that there was something wrong with the sect's path after several days of heavy rain.

The people in the Dharma Hall even used a trick to cover up the matter.

Then they took advantage of the dead of night and arranged for two people to dig deep along the trail.

As a result, when the two men saw the things buried, their faces changed drastically and they immediately informed the head of the ritual hall.

After the hall master came over and took a look, his face did not look too good. He did not dare to delay for a moment and informed the headmaster.

Zhenjun Wen Hao rushed over, took a look at the things, and immediately informed Zhenren Fang Cheng and his three brothers.

Master Fang Cheng arrived the fastest. After he saw the things, he was not so excited. Instead, he said thoughtfully: "My master is right. The person who cursed Sister Lan must have been planning for a long time.

He was able to do this so thoroughly and had such a close relationship with the family."

When Master Shanzheng and Master Pingyang rushed over, they happened to hear what Master Fangcheng said.

Immortal Pingyang immediately said in displeasure: "Since they couldn't harm their daughter, they decided to harm Lan Jie'er."

"Humph."

Master Fang Cheng snorted and interrupted Master Pingyang. He smiled and said to Master Wen Hao, "My third junior brother loves the child too much and his words are too straightforward.

We have only one successor, Lan Jie'er, so we can't help but love her dearly."

Wen Hao Zhenjun said to the head of the Dharma Hall: "Things here must be kept secret for the time being." The head of the Dharma Hall agreed: "Our Dharma Hall is the best place in the sect to keep secrets.

It’s just that this thing was buried too long ago, and the person was too cautious, so we can’t find any clear clues for now.”

Master Wen Hao looked at the expressions of Master Fang Cheng and his three brothers. He stretched out his hand and touched the object. Then he said to the head of the Dharma Hall, "It's OK. You can check carefully. You will find something out."

The head of the Dharma Hall collected the items, and after Master Wen Hao and Master Fang Cheng and their group left, he said to the two Dharma Hall disciples in a serious manner, "This matter must be kept secret."

"Yes."

After the two agreed to the Hall Master's words, they looked at each other and asked, "Hall Master, the fact that Master Zelan was cursed cannot be announced to the public for the time being, right?"

The hall master glanced at them calmly and said, "Do you think that after the announcement, it will be a very honorable thing for our Yunyan Sect?"

"Master, we understand."

"What do you understand?"

"We understand that we must keep this matter secret as much as possible. Apart from the parties involved, the sect will not announce this matter to the world."

The hall master glared at them unhappily: "Half true and half false, we want to make sure that the hidden enemy will never dare to touch anyone in our sect again."

"Master, we don't understand what you are saying, but we will follow your orders."

The three people from the Dharma Hall quickly disappeared from the spot, and before they left, they cleaned up all traces.

Taoist Fang Cheng returned to his own cave, and Taoist Shan Zheng and Taoist Ping Yang followed him into the cave.

Master Fang Cheng looked at the expressions on the faces of his two junior brothers and sighed, "What questions do you want to ask?"

"Big Brother, am I right when I say it has something to do with the Lou family?"

"Yes.

But the Lou family probably didn’t know that person did such a thing.”

"Big Brother, did Master already know about some of these related things?"

"Master only guessed some truths, but we have no evidence."

Master Pingyang sighed in disappointment and turned to look at Master Shanzheng: "Second Senior Brother, when you took Sister Lan away from the sect, did you guess some of the things going on here?"

Shanzheng Zhenren shook his head and said, “It was really difficult for Lan Jie’er to practice back then, I just wanted to take her out to have a look, in case she has other opportunities outside.

Even if I fail in the end, at least I can let this child be happy and comfortable for a few years.

But after we went out, I found that Sister Lan's face looked less gloomy, and Senior Brother Decheng also felt that the farther away from the sect, the brighter Sister Lan's face became."

Master Fang Cheng glanced at Master Ping Yang and asked, "Third Junior Brother, you are not busy recently, right?"

"Big Brother, I'm not busy lately."

"Oh, that's alright.

It just so happens that your second senior brother has been worried about Lan Jie'er, and I'm going to be in seclusion for a few days, so you should take care of the affairs of Zizai Peak."

“No, Big Brother, I want to meditate and practice.

Besides, our peak manager is always capable, so there is no need for me to be in charge."

Master Fang Cheng picked up the teacup, and Master Shan Zheng said goodbye to Master Fang Cheng directly: "Big Brother, I'm sorry to bother you tonight."

When he left, he also took Master Pingyang with him. (End of this chapter)
