Myriad Paths

baffling……

Damn it, all the magicians are the same all over the world.

However, Li Qi always controlled himself, said goodbye to this person politely, speeded up, and went to the teacher's cave.

After that, it was a smooth journey, but it still took a few hours.

However, just as Li Qi was on his way...

——————————

"It's boring, it's really boring, a bunch of little bastards pretending to be polite, boring!" Zhu Fengdan shook his head in the cave with a very unhappy tone.

But he saw thousands of miles of rivers and mountains appearing in his hands, with every plant and tree appearing in them. He had seen all the previous conflicts between Li Qi and his fellow disciples.

It's just really boring.

A group of children, like little adults, each one is calmer and more restrained than the other.

Let's start a fight. What's going on? Don't you feel young and energetic?

Zhu Fengdan was disappointed.

However, even though he said this, he was actually satisfied.

The whole situation may seem very subtle to onlookers and feel a bit anticlimactic, but in fact it was just resolved by Li Qi quite cleverly.

Zhu Fengdan remembered that the handsome guy in white was called Yanke, and his path was quite interesting.

He is a human-ghost branch of Zhu Ren's lineage. His temperament and ability are naturally good at becoming a leader among the crowd. He is also able to understand people's hearts and sense the general trend. His talent is extraordinary, so he was accepted by a great Zhu as his disciple.

After accepting it, in order to help him have a smooth journey, the great wisher spent a lot of effort and paid a lot of money to find a small world with a unique flow rate of light.

Then he also asked for help to refine the heavenly way of this small world, overcome the special cosmic light in it, and allow the outside will to descend into it through the arrangement of Da Zhu.

Then he gave this thing to Yan Ke, allowing him to put his will into it and control the 'civilization' of this small world.

By coming one after another, and shaking the direction of the entire world's civilization with just his will and words, he gradually mastered the ability to control the 'general trend' through this learning method.

There are one billion people in a small world, and they can come down with only their will, without any ability, and influence history with their words alone, allowing one billion people to move in the direction they want.

Manipulating the process of history and artificially creating general trends is a special practice of the human-ghost lineage, which is exactly suitable for Yanke's talent.

That small world is the foundation of Yanke.

Yanke proposed a duel with wisdom in this small world. In fact, he was preparing to ambush Li Qi. After all, he had been playing this game for many years, but Li Qi was the first to come into contact with it. He thought that he would not be able to win no matter what.

But Li Qi was more straightforward and said directly that this kind of thing was not in line with his Tao and refused to accept it. At the same time, he released his aura of all peoples.

Where did Li Qi's aura of all peoples come from?

He inherited the cause and effect from all the people and received their gratitude and even worship. Although Li Qi was from the earth lineage, he did more things from the human and ghost lineage, such as offering sacrifices to the heroic spirits of the White Rhino Army and helping them return. Reincarnation, the worship of saving 100,000 people, plus the many karma brought about by a great sacrifice.

It can be said that Li Qi has gone further than him in the lineage of humans and ghosts. He is still studying how to control the general trend in the laboratory, but Li Qi has actually affected the general trend of a state.

Therefore, after Li Qi showed his results, he said that he would never accept this method.

This is to fundamentally deny his foundation.

This is the root cause. Yanke, in fact, has not thought much about his own Taoist foundation.

This was given to him by his master, a great blessing, and he naturally thought it was right. This was a blind spot in his thinking.

Originally it was nothing, he just learned it, and he naturally understood it. It didn't matter at all. When he slowly practiced and understood all the wheel of cause and effect in that small world, all these doubts could be answered. That was probably the arrangement of his master.

The future is all smooth sailing.

But now Li Qi pointed it out in advance.

It's similar to someone who has better grades than you and says you did something wrong.

Then you will definitely think about it.

This thought shook his original belief.

Therefore, this made him shaken for a moment, and he was cleverly forced to quit by Li Qi, and went back to think about whether what he had done before was right.

This is a good thing for him, so there will be no enmity after this incident, but it can also resolve the blocking situation.

From Zhu Fengdan's perspective, this was all planned by Li Qi, so he was very satisfied.

After meeting for only a few minutes, he immediately understood the other party's purpose, the different purposes of the five people, and the threats they posed to themselves.

First, neutralize the leading Yanke, and skillfully make him withdraw, thereby angering the big black and red man, and then defeat the big man with force, so that the two women can be frightened away.

So overall, Li Qi's vision and strategy are remarkable. Except for not dealing with the blind fortune teller, everything else is very good.

Handled very well.

It's really boring without a fight. It would be better if there was a fight.

Just when Zhu Fengdan was feeling regretful, Li Qi finally arrived outside the cave.

————————

After driving for a long time, Li Qi looked up and finally saw his teacher's spiritual peak.

to be honest……

It's no different from anyone else's.

There is not much that is unique about me, I feel just ordinary, even more ordinary than others, just like a bare mountain.

Others are decorated with unique features and have all kinds of things.

But here at home...

Why is he just a bumpkin?

Is there a cave inside?

Li Qi walked into it curiously.

Walking into the mountain, Li Qi bent down and said, "Teacher! I'm here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the scenery around him changed suddenly.

The surrounding area seemed to be endless void, pitch black, without any light at all.

But there was no feeling of falling, it was like floating in mid-air, unable to move.

Then, suddenly, a light lit up in front of his eyes, and Zhu Fengdan's figure appeared in front of him.

"Apprentice, are you here?" Zhu Fengdan appeared in this void.

Before Li Qi could say hello, he shook his head and sighed: "What's the matter with you? You've come back here and still think about being kind to others and solving problems every day. You can't do this. Why didn't you just beat them? Are you worried? Can’t I hold it?”

Li Qiquan pretended that he did not hear this.

He bowed obediently as a disciple, and then said to himself: "Teacher, in addition to returning to life this time, I have something important to inform you."

"Tch, serious, boring, tell me, what's the matter?" Zhu Fengdan waved his hand, rolled his eyes, and waited for Li Qi to speak.

Who taught this apprentice how come he speaks and acts strictly without any trace of youthful passion?

He is only in his twenties. Even among ordinary people, he is still in the prime of life. How come he has become like this, without any anger at all.

But Li Qi ignored that and seriously told the story about the attack he encountered.

Then, he took out the dragon soul and the corpse of the man who called himself "Ji Ding" and presented them to Zhu Fengdan: "Teacher, please look at this."

"Okay, okay, I understand." Zhu Fengdan said with a bored expression: "There is something fishy behind this matter. Everyone knows it. Okay, just leave it to me."

He looked at Li Qi with an expression that said he hated iron and said: "Why do you, a child, worry about the country and the people every day? Should you worry about this kind of thing? Is it useful for you to worry? Really, not at all like me."

Li Qi lowered his head.

Although the exercises and techniques I practice are all given by my teacher... you have never taught me a day...

To be honest, all the common sense in my spiritual practice was taught by Shen Shuibi and I learned from reading books.

Basically, I rely on my own understanding throughout the process.

It's not normal for you...

After he finished cursing in his heart, Li Qi heard the teacher cough twice with an embarrassed expression.

Oh, I forgot he can read minds.

"Ahem, you kid is so unlovable. Forget it, I won't argue with you." Zhu Fengdan waved his hand.

Li Qi was ashamed.

No...can you still argue with me? I have a grand third-grade blessing, I don’t know how many years I have lived, and I am arguing with a twenty-year-old person?

No, you can't think about this in your mind.

Li Qi immediately put on a solemn appearance and silently recited one, two, three, four, five, pretending that he had not thought of anything.

But at this time, Zhu Fengdan waved his hand.

But I saw the scenery around me changing.

Suddenly, Li Qi found himself sitting on a chair. There were many strange-shaped stones next to him, and he didn't know what they were for.

Next to the stone, there are three tea trees, which are dying. The tea leaves are all bald and look yellow and yellow, as if they are about to die.

Li Qi picked two pieces and smelled them, and found nothing strange.

In the yard further away, there are many strange things piled up.

Magical weapons, utensils, rare objects, all kinds of weird materials, and my own game console are also listed. These things are almost piled into a hill, and I don't know how many there are.

This...is the teacher's residence?

Were those things outside stolen?

As soon as Li Qi thought this, an air cannon exploded on his head, leaving him stunned.

But there was no injury, just a thunderclap.

"How are you talking? Is that called robbing?! Treasures live in the world, and those who are destined to get them can get them. I am half-destined to this thing. I only played with it for a few days and then returned it later. It is not a robbery." Mr. Zhu held it in his hands. Holding a round disk, he scolded Li Qi angrily.

After Li Qi returned to the country, he immediately bowed and replied: "The teacher is absolutely right, I am superficial!"

Mr. Zhu simply sat down with Yuan Pan in his hands: "Forget it, I won't talk to you about this. It's useless to talk like that. I might as well let you find some youthful passion."

"Are you worried about the Jade Rabbit now? I see that this is the only thing left in you that looks like a young man. I will give you a task. After completing this task, I will take you to visit Luofu's cave. How about ?”

After hearing this, Li Qi was excited and immediately stood up straight: "Teacher, please give me your instructions!"

"Go to the banquet." Mr. Zhu said, narrowing his eyes.

"The banquet I invited you to was not a lie. It was held by a dream teller. Its original purpose was to divine opportunities and dangers for you children, so that you can seek good luck and avoid disasters. It's just that those people borrowed this thing. You just want to trick me and make me lose face.”

"Since you have blocked those children's tricks, let us master and apprentice go to the banquet in a big way to gain some opportunities for you. We are not allowed to hide in the crowd, avoid disputes, and give verbal advice. If someone comes to provoke, then You smash his head!"

"If you do this, after the banquet, I will take you to visit Luofu's cave, and you can go find the rabbit by yourself, how about that?"

Zhu Fengdan said boldly, staring at Li Qi to see his reaction.

When Li Qi heard this, he gritted his teeth and said, "I will obey my teacher's orders! It's just that, teacher, the mastermind behind the scenes..."

Zhu Fengdan was more straightforward: "Why are you worried about those people? I don't know better than you that there is a black hand behind it? Children just enjoy their childhood honestly. If the sky falls, you, master, and I will hold it up. I can wait peacefully for the envoys to be formed, and then Go to study in Tang Dynasty.”

"As for the people who are plotting against you behind the scenes, I will twist their heads off, so you don't have to worry about it."

Li Qi was speechless and could only salute and then asked: "Then when will we leave?"

When Zhu Fengdan heard this, he immediately beamed with joy: "Right now! Let's go, let's slap them in the face!"

Just leave as soon as you say it, Zhu Fengdan has always been a resolute person.

He directly grabbed Li Qi, waved his hand, and saw a large car approaching automatically. He threw Li Qi into the back seat, and sat in the driver's seat. He waved his whip fiercely, and two heads appeared in front of the car...

Uh, two iron-eating beasts?

Li Qi wiped his sweat, the teacher's aesthetic taste is really...

Regardless of who was pulling the car, the speed was still quite fast, and the vehicle began to move quickly towards the target.

Inside Wushen Mountain, fast flying is prohibited, and the space is also protected by prohibitions. It is difficult to fold the space for teleportation, so most of the journey requires either legs or transportation.

Li Qi sat in the vehicle and watched the teacher happily sucking the iron beast's ass.

The meat trembles.

Kinda cute.

I have to say, growing so fat and running so fast...

Wait, this breath.

This iron-eating beast is a fifth-grade beast! ?

Li Qi immediately put away his disrespect and sat in the back, lost in thought.

Since the teacher told him not to worry, he would deal with it and just enjoy his childhood, so be it.

Don't think about the conflict between Wushen Mountain and Tang State. Anyway, you can't control it yourself, just leave it to the teacher.

Moreover, that magic stick...

It seemed that he was right, and he actually went to the banquet.

Damn, I hate these Riddlers.

Forget it, let’s think about what I’m most worried about now…

Miss Shen...what happened?

Since the big festival, the attitude seems to have changed.

Although it was only four or five days before the big festival, a lot of things happened in these four or five days, and each one of them made Li Qi feel a little unfamiliar.

what reason?

Since it was after the big festival, it means that the incident also happened during that time.

Before the big ceremony, Shen Shuibi even rushed to the altar to heal herself, indicating that nothing went wrong.

After the big festival, is there anything important during that time?

When the third-level attack came, the teacher and Senior Yun Fang took action to stop it.

Then, Senior Yun Fang said, ‘Wishen Mountain and Empress Luofu are not of the same mind. ’

Wait, is that why?

I had also doubted whether she and Shen Shuibi were the same.

Shen Shuibi also had this doubt?

And there are more serious doubts.

For example... Wu Shenshan used himself to turn her into a bargaining chip to persuade Empress Luofu... or something like that?
