Chapter 36 Strange Taoist Temple

As soon as I entered the pool, the spiritual energy became richer and richer as I went lower. I descended hundreds of thousands of meters and reached the bottom of the water. Then I stopped and said, "I'm going, hahahaha, uncle, we are at the underground crystal palace."

"This is so beautiful, it's really fairy-tale. The crystal palaces are so beautiful and dreamy." As he said this, he walked into a fantasy colorful palace.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, there is still wine, it must be fairy wine, one jar for each person." The palace is beautiful, but empty. There are only two jars of wine on a crystal table. Chang'an patted the mouth of the jar and handed it to his uncle, "Drink, get drunk."

Let’s just sleep here, there’s no one around anyway.”

"Hey, okay." The two of them sat on the floor, each holding a jar of wine and drank heavily. After half an hour, they fell to the ground and fell asleep. On the second day after the two fell asleep, the whole

The palace spun rapidly, and the palace spun faster and faster. Three breaths later, the remote teleportation array was activated with a "buzz" sound, and the entire palace disappeared in an instant.

one day later

Gu Jinxiu suddenly opened his eyes and looked around warily. He called out "Chang'an, Chang'an" several times, but Chang'an was still sleeping soundly. At this time, there was a shaking under his feet, and he instinctively picked up the person and took a step out of the Crystal Palace. As soon as he took the step.

The Crystal Palace, the palace actually flew away on its own.

"Is it actually a teleportation array? Why didn't you use the Mermaid Tears?" A thought flashed through my mind, and then I looked around in front of me, and I was shocked again, what kind of place is this?

From time to time, the roaring sounds of monsters could be heard in the dusky sky, which was all gray. There was not a trace of spiritual energy in the air, and there was a sigh, and it was a strange place again.

Carrying Chang'an on my back, I ran forward as fast as I could for eighteen hundred miles. There was a dense forest in front of me and there was no way.

The sky gradually brightened, but it always seemed to be separated by a layer of veil. It was obvious that there was a large-scale formation blessing here. I turned my ears and heard someone speaking in the dense forest ahead: "Master, someone from our Lingxiu Mountain has come to offer incense today."

The voice of a child.

"Mu Yu, did you tell me that master went out today?" an old man's voice said.

"I told you, Master has gone to collect medicine, but he is only in this mountain, nowhere to be found in the depths of the clouds."

"Mu Yu is so good"

"But the man didn't leave. He tied his horse in front of the mountain gate and pooped in it." Mu Yu was heartbroken. The poop was too thin to be swept up. What could he do if he was only six years old?

"Hahahaha, it seems that I can't leave without seeing that person. Let's go back to the mountain with my teacher."

"Taoist priest, please wait a moment, little boy," Gu Jinxiu said loudly and hurriedly carried the man on his back into the woods, walking through the bushes in search of the place where the voice had just spoken.

After walking a few hundred steps, I saw an old Taoist wearing a pale blue Taoist robe, and beside him was a child of about five or six years old with hair tied in horns. The two of them were looking at her in surprise.

"Hello, Taoist priest," he hurriedly saluted and said, "I have just come to your land for the first time. I don't know where this village is. I am looking at Jinxiu. I am carrying my nephew on my back. Now I am hungry and have no place to stay. Please give me some advice, Taoist priest."

I don’t mind my recklessness.”

"It turns out he is a foreigner. I thought this place is already at the end of the mountain. How could someone appear here? I guess you have been here for many days." After listening to Gu Jinxiu's words, the old Taoist calmed down.

"..." The end of the mountain? Where did the mountain come from? I looked back and saw the shadow of the mountain. It was the same way I came. At the moment, I thought I was dreaming. I pinched myself in uncertainty. It really hurt. It was not a dream.

.

"Since you are hungry, follow me down the mountain." The old Taoist glanced at Chang An on his back and frowned, "Your nephew accidentally drank Huangquan wine. Fortunately, he is still young. If it is more than three months, he will not be able to wake up.

Let's go back to the temple. We just have some herbs for her to relieve her hangover. She can wake up tomorrow."

"This is great, thank you, Taoist Master. I'll help you get it, Taoist Master." He quickly picked up the basket full of herbs on the ground and patted the little Taoist boy's head with a smile.

"Okay, let's go," the old man said with a pure heart. He nodded, turned around and led the three of them forward.

After walking for more than an hour, the three of them came out of the dense forest. They looked back and saw that there was nothing left in the forest except for the jungle and the occasional worthless medicinal herbs. They couldn't help but feel suspicious. They heard that sound just now.

Where does the roar of the monster beast come from?

"Taoist priest, in this forest... uh, have you ever heard the cry of monsters in this mountain?"

"What kind of beast?" The old Taoist trembled in fright. It turned out that the pretty girl was hearing hallucinations. "Aside from a few birds chirping, what kind of beast is there?"

"..." Well, there is no way to communicate at the moment.

Silent all the way, I followed the old Taoist to a deserted place. A hundred-year-old tree had lush leaves, and a white horse was tied to the tree.

Man. Behind the big tree is an old and small Taoist temple. Seeing the old Taoist and the little boy coming back, the middle-aged man stood up and saluted: "Han Zheng has been waiting for the old Taoist for a long time."

"Come in and talk with me," the old Taoist nodded.

"yes"

The man glanced at the little Taoist boy and Gu Jinxiu, then at Chang'an, and then followed the old Taoist and the group entered the Taoist temple.

There are three statues of Sanqing Taoist ancestors side by side in the courtyard. There is no quality to be seen, but they just make people look at them with respect. There are three main rooms: one is a dojo, and the other two are residences for male and female Taoist disciples.

"Gu..."

"Disciple Gu Jinxiu"

"Gu Jinxiu, please wash up your nephew first. There is a well in the backyard. Let Mu Yu help you fetch water. There are also a few steamed buns in the kitchen in the backyard. Let Mu Yu warm up two bowls of vegetable porridge for you to eat. After finishing,

Have a rest. After your nephew washes up, you put her in my room.

"Yes, thank you, Taoist priest."

Watching the old Taoist lead the middle-aged man into the dojo, Jinxiu patted the little Taoist boy and said, "My name is Gu Jinxiu."

"My name is Mu Yu, and I will take you to fetch water."

"Thank you Mu Yu." Jinxiu carried her nephew and Mu Yu to the backyard. There was a well in the yard and about two acres of vegetable land, where some simple vegetables were grown.

"Sister Jinxiu, you are so beautiful. You are prettier than the women in the painting. Your nephew is also prettier. Wash her quickly and I will help you. This wine is very overbearing. Some people take ten years to wake up. But don't be afraid, my master

It's amazing, she will wake up tomorrow." Little adult Mu Yu helped her out like a squirrel.

"This wine is so overbearing. Has anyone woke up quickly after drinking it?" Gu Jinxiu asked in shock.

"How is this possible? It can take at least three years or as long as ten years to wake up after drinking this wine."

After washing his nephew, Mu Yu led the way, carried his nephew into the Taoist Priest's room, and then exited.

"Sister Jinxiu, this is the kitchen. You sit down and wait for a while, and I will warm the food for you." He said and moved a small wooden block over.

"Okay" hurriedly took it and sat on it, watching Mu Yu's movements with interest.

A large pot and a water ladle. Mu Yu scooped out two ladles of water from a large vat next to it and added it. A curtain made of tree strips was placed to separate the water. Mu Yu took out a few white noodles from a basket hanging on the side.

He placed the steamed buns on the curtain, took down two bowls of vegetable porridge from the shelf, and finally covered the pot with a wooden lid. Then he smiled shyly at Jinxiu, squatted down and stretched out his little hand, and clasped the thumb of his right hand inwards.

After flicking it, a fire ball suddenly appeared in the stove. The fire ball did not rush or extinguish. After a while, a large amount of white gas rose from the pot, and the food was hot.

Gu Jinxiu opened her mouth and looked at Mu Yu with admiration: "Can you play fire with your fingers?"

"Ah? What about playing fire? Everyone can do it, right? Me, my fire can only be used to warm food. Master's fire is very powerful. It can forge iron and swords."

"Are you saying that people here are all born with fire?" What's going on? This is a magical place.

"Yes, I forgot, my sister is a foreigner and I don't know that people here are born with fire. It's just that the colors of fire are different, but most of them can only make fire. Only the seven-color fire is powerful.

Well, the purple one is the best, and the blue one is second." Mu Yu said one by one while holding her little hands.

"Are you saying that the seven colors are arranged in order of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple?"

"Yes, the least powerful one is the colorless one like me, but Master said there is a kind of black fire in this world, which is the most domineering and powerful." Mu Yu's eyes lit up with yearning on her face.

"Sister knows for the first time" is really a long time coming.

"The fire here is passed down from generation to generation. My grandfather passed it on to my father, and my father passed it on to me. But if foreigners have fire, they can only have it themselves. My master would ask Sanqing Taoist Patriarch to give him fire, but he didn't want to

Give fire to strangers, the man outside has been here many times."

"That man is also a foreigner?" Jinxiu was stunned.

"Yes, he said he was the general of Cangzhou Kingdom." His horse is so annoying.

Jinxiu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
