Pagoda Immortality

Lu Li was horrified to find that he had come to an unknown space.

The space was not big, only ten feet in radius, and the rest of the place was shrouded in thick white fog. He could not see the outside at all. There was sunshine and blue sky and white clouds above his head.

The land under his feet was very soft, and the soil was not ordinary loess, but black with a faint stream of light. In the center of the ten-foot space, there was a four or five-inch tall tender bud, and there was also a stream of light flashing on the tender bud. I don’t know what kind of plant it is.

At this moment, a feeling of drowning suddenly came over him.

Lu Li panicked immediately, and in a hurry he rushed directly towards the "white fog" on the side.

Bang!

This white fog, which seemed as soft as cotton, was actually harder than steel, and it knocked him to the ground.

"Where is this, let me out..." Lu Li blushed and shouted with difficulty.

Buzz!

The space suddenly shook.

The next moment, Lu Li came to his senses and found that he had sunk deeply into the water. He swallowed a few mouthfuls of river water and struggled to swim towards the shore.

Back on the shore, Lu Li vomited and gasped, feeling like he had survived a disaster.

"Mud monkey, you actually drowned?" Chen Zhong found that Lu Li was not right and swam back from the water.

"Don't, don't go, call the beast back quickly, there is a ghost down there." Lu Li said breathlessly.

"Ghost?" Fatty Chen looked at Lu Li suspiciously, "Where did the ghost come from in broad daylight?"

"Don't say it! Listen to me, call him up quickly, and Xiang Yun, don't wash, come back with me immediately!" Lu Li's tone was decisive and unquestionable. That thing was too outrageous, and he was afraid that several people would have another accident.

"Okay." Chen Zhong had never seen Lu Li so solemn before, and immediately called Qin Shouren and Li Xiangyun to the shore.

Qin Shouren also looked suspicious, but seeing that Lu Li's face was not good, he did not argue, and then the four of them walked towards Dashi Village.

Chen Zhong and Qin Shouren were used to being lazy. It was still early, so they were afraid that they would be forced to herd cattle if they went back, so they kept walking slowly.

Lu Li was worried all the way and also walked slowly. Suddenly, he felt a little hot in his left hand. He was so scared that he forgot to check the wound.

When he looked at the palm of his left hand, his pupils shrank for no reason, and he exclaimed in his heart: "What is this? When did this ghost thing appear in my palm!"

It was not until now that Lu Li discovered that there was a green three-layered small tower pattern on his palm.

Lu Li rubbed it with his hands and found that the thing did not fade at all, as if it was tattooed. This scared Lu Li a lot, "Could it be a ghost!"

This made him involuntarily think of his experience under the water just now. He said in his heart that he had run into a water ghost. It seems that he needs to find an opportunity to go to the town to find a Taoist priest to see.

"Nihou, what are you doing?" Qin Shouren found that Lu Li was stunned and did not move, and walked back.

"No, nothing." Lu Li forced out an ugly smile.

"You, didn't really run into a ghost?"

"No..." Lu Li was about to explain when he suddenly saw an old Taoist priest coming out of the forest path. The Taoist priest looked to be in his seventies or eighties, older than the Taoist priest from Qingyun Sect in Longxing Town just now.

He was thin and hunched, wearing a light blue Taoist robe, with sparse and messy gray hair, and many black spots on his face. He looked like he was going to be buried at any time. If it weren't for the long sword on his back and a whisk in his left hand, Lu Li would have mistaken him for a ghost.

Despite this, Lu Li still felt terrified.

Qin Shouren and Li Xiangyun, who were walking in front, stopped. Chen Zhong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and muttered in a mosquito-like voice: Is this an immortal or a ghost?

As soon as the voice fell, the old Taoist priest suddenly squinted and looked at Chen Zhong, almost scaring Chen Zhong to death, and hid behind Lu Li.

Lu Li felt that although this person looked a little creepy, at least he was dressed decently. He mustered up his courage and walked forward, bowing to the old Taoist: "Hello, senior."

The old Taoist looked down. Although he was old, his eyes were not cloudy. He stared at Lu Li and said hoarsely: "Young man, where are you going?"

Lu Li did not dare to look at him directly, lowered his head and replied: "We are all from Dashi Village. We just participated in the Qingyang Sect's awakening ceremony and are preparing to return to the village."

"Return to the village?" The old Taoist's eyes flashed, "None of you have awakened successfully?"

"Yes, senior."

"How about I give you a chance?"

"Fortune?" Lu Li was puzzled.

"The Qingyang Sect is just a name in name only. Why don't you follow me and I will take you to cultivate immortality?"

"Cultivate immortality!" Lu Li did not speak, but Qin Shouren exclaimed.

"Well, I have my own way to help you cultivate immortality. Do you want to go?"

"Yes, yes..." Qin Shouren nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, then follow me." The old Taoist smiled with satisfaction upon hearing this, and turned to walk towards the forest path behind him.

"Senior, can we go back and tell the adults?" Qin Shouren shouted after seeing that the other party left as soon as he said he would.

The old Taoist stopped and turned around again, "When I am away from home, everything depends on fate. If you leave, it means that your fate has been broken and you cannot enter my immortal gate."

After hearing this, except Lu Li, Qin Shouren, Chen Zhong, and Li Xiangyun all looked embarrassed.

Lu Li didn't show any embarrassment, nor did he want to follow the old Taoist, but he always felt that something was wrong with the old Taoist. As for what was wrong, he couldn't tell.

After thinking about it, Lu Li decided not to take the risk. When he was a child, he loved to read wild histories of wild animals and monsters. Common books described those mountain spirits and monsters that transformed into humans and came down the mountain to deceive children. They ate flesh and devoured their hearts. It was quite terrifying, so he handed over his hand and said:

"Senior, although we have the intention of cultivating immortals, we are not the material for cultivating immortals, so we won't disturb seniors." He winked at the three of them and said, "Let's go."

Among the few people, Lu Li was the one with the best brains. Lu Li usually had the final say when it came to things. Seeing Lu Li's decision at this time, although they were puzzled, they didn't ask him in person. They all raised their hands to the old Taoist and said: He apologized and then followed Lu Li to the side.

"Ignorant of good and evil!"

Lu Li and others had just taken a few steps when the old Taoist suddenly took out a rolled up piece of yellow paper and flicked it at them. The yellow paper flew out instantly. Before Lu Li and others could react, they were already covered by the thick white mist. shrouded.

After just two or three breaths, several people felt dizzy and fell to the ground with a few thuds.

The old Taoist didn't even look, and turned around and walked into the forest. A moment later, a carriage came out of the forest. The old Taoist hunched over like picking up garbage, and threw Lu Li and others into the carriage one by one.

Then the carriage disappeared on the forest path.
