Supreme Space Puppet Master

Chapter 37 Ancient Inheritance 3
There was a dull sound as the stone wall moved, and a crack in the stone slowly appeared that could only allow one person to pass through.

There was a faint light in the crevice of the stone, Jiang Xiaoli and Lian Xi looked at each other, Lian Xi moved to the crevice first, followed by Jiang Xiaoli.

Jiang Xiaoli accidentally tripped over the rubble and staggered, Lian Xi didn't say much, but suddenly reached out and grabbed Jiang Xiaoli's arm.

Jiang Xiaoli only felt his heart beating violently, no one said a word, in the narrow stone passage, only the faint breathing of each other could be heard.

Turning a corner, Jiang Xiaoli couldn't help squinting his eyes suddenly, with a dazzling light.

When his eyes got used to the light, Jiang Xiaoli discovered that the legendary and mysterious ancient inheritance was quite different from what he had imagined. It was not like the majestic underground palace behind the stone wall before, and it was clearly a simple and simple village in front of him.

Cooking smoke curls up from the scattered thatched huts, and the whole village has a rustic and simple flavor in its serenity and tranquility.

Xanadu, Jiang Xiaoli thought so.

Pedestrians came and went casually, Jiang Xiaoli saw a few villagers coming with farm tools and talking and laughing, so he stepped forward to say hello, and wanted to ask where this place was.

Unexpectedly, those passers-by walked away with Jiang Xiaoli as if they hadn't seen the two people standing in front of them, chatting and laughing.

Jiang Xiaoli didn't believe in evil, and entered the village with Lian Xi, Jiang Xiaoli began to talk to the villagers who were standing or sitting, but without exception, Jiang Xiaoli was regarded as air.

Lian Xi frowned: "Stupid." After saying that, he stretched out his hand to condense a ball of flames, and flung them towards the thatched cottage.

Jiang Xiaoli wanted to stop it but it was too late, but saw that the flame fell on the thatched hut and went out instantly, without hurting the hut at all.

How could it be possible!

Jiang Xiaoli was surprised. Along the way, Jiang Xiaoli saw that Lian Xi used this flame to burn countless sand snakes blocking the way. Jiang Xiaoli knew the power of this flame very well, but what happened?
Lian Xi said, "It's just an illusion."

Jiang Xiaoli said: "Since it's an illusion, is there a way to break it?"

Lian Xi pursed her lips, glared at Jiang Xiaoli again, and walked forward on her own.

Jiang Xiaoli was stunned, and then realized, well, he didn't know, he didn't know, she thought he was omnipotent.

The two searched around the village, but found nothing.

Jiang Xiaoli sighed, and to be honest, he was not very disappointed, after all, this ancient inheritance is rare.

"You guys are here." An old voice suddenly sounded from behind the two of them, it was so silent, Jiang Xiaoli was not at all prepared, he almost bit his own tongue in such a fright.

Didn't you say it was an illusion?Jiang Xiaoli thought he could only see the images of these villagers.

Turning around, it turned out that there was an old man with white hair and childlike face standing behind them. His hair was full of silver threads, tied together with an unnamed cane, and he was wearing some thick linen, stroking his beard with a smile.

Jiang Xiaoli's eyes turned hot, and she couldn't help being touched by the scene. Her grandfather also had silver hair, but unfortunately, a fire took him away.

Before he had time to appreciate the impermanence of the world, the old man said again: "Since you are here, let me go with the old man."

The old man walked slowly in the village with Lian Xi and Jiang Xiaoli, without saying a word, until they reached the tallest thatched hut in the village, and then stopped.

With a wave of his hand, the old man saw that the dead branches on the ground were reborn in spring, and new branches were quickly pulled out. In a blink of an eye, they had grown into a desk.

Before Jiang Xiaoli could finish being surprised, he saw the old man, like an ordinary old man in the world, enter the room and take out a jar of wine, with three futons under his arms.

Jiang Xiaoli's eyes became hot again, and through the cheerful old man in front of him, he seemed to see his grandfather again.

Jiang Xiaoli took the things from the old man's hand and put them neatly in a short while.

The old man didn't want to fight with Jiang Xiaoli, he just stroked his beard, glanced at Lian Xi who was standing still, and said with a smile, "You're still a cute girl."

The three sat down, the old man opened the seal of the jar, and a scent of wine wafted out.

Even Jiang Xiaoli, who came from a wine making family and had seen all kinds of good wine, couldn't help but swallow his saliva. The wine had a mellow aroma, and he was drunk just by smelling it.

Seeing Jiang Xiaoli's gluttonous appearance, the old man poured Jiang Xiaoli a bottle with a smile, and Jiang Xiaoli quickly took it, it's very precious.

Since the Jiangjia fire, Jiang Xiaoli hadn't even had a glass of ordinary water and wine, and all the wine worms were hooked at this moment.

The old man also poured a glass for Lian Xi, and began to say: "If the two of you can break the enchantment that the old man set up back then, it means that you are destined to be with the old man. If so, why don't you become a teacher?"

Jiang Xiaoli almost spit out his wine, did they crack it?
Yes, yes, although it was a mistake, but luck is also a kind of strength, isn't it?

Jiang Xiaoli's face was hot. Anyway, she didn't have a master. What Zhou Bingchang said at the time was just an excuse to go out to practice with the master, and immediately shouted: "Master!"

"Hahaha, good good good good good good good good!" The old man laughed, said three good words in succession, and touched Jiang Xiaoli's head, his love was beyond words.

Turning to look at Lian Xi again, Lian Xi pursed her lips, but said: "Senior, this junior already has a teacher's school, I'm afraid I will disappoint the kindness of my senior."

The old man paused his hand stroking his beard, and put away his smile. Lian Xi and Jiang Xiaoli's faces turned pale from the coercion emanating from him.

The old man saw that the precious apprentice he had just taken in suffered a catastrophe, so he put away his coercion, and said with a cold face: "Young man, you already have a golden core cultivation at a young age, and you are worthy of your mutated fire root!" .”

After a pause, the old man said again: "But young people are younger after all. Since you entered the old man's Tianwai Village, do you think there is any other way to go besides apprenticeship?"

Jiang Xiaoli looked at Lian Xi worriedly. He really didn't expect Lian Xi to be so stubborn. Seeing that his master was really angry, Jiang Xiaoli said softly, "Didn't the sages of Confucianism also say that? If three of us go together, there must be one." My teacher, fellow Taoists, why do you have to do this?"

Speaking of this, Jiang Xiaoli suddenly realized that she still didn't know his name.

"Hmph, a majestic Golden Core cultivator is not as clear as the old man's apprentice who only has the ability to refine Qi!"
