The Wheel-Turning Master

After sitting quietly for a few days without making any progress, Lin Bai simply got up and went to find Xie Qingxuan.

Although this Taoist friend Xie Qingxuan came from Zhouhui Mountain, he experienced a mysterious experience. After being driven away by the people from Shouting Pavilion, he did not move south with the old people, but wandered alone.

As for his experience, it is unknown to outsiders. Lin Bai only knew that the book "Entering the Formation" he had compiled was compiled by him, and the book was obtained from the Gu family. It seemed that Xie Qingxuan had another connection with Gu Qingshan, the late Yuan Ying of the Gu family.

This person is extremely accomplished in formations and has a deep scheming mind. During the Northern Expedition to Shoutian Pavilion, he and Jiang Xingchi worked openly and secretly, both horizontally and vertically, and this was how they succeeded.

However, Xie Qingxuan did not reveal his achievements in front of outsiders, and he left very early. It was true that the breeze blew across the earth, leaving no trace.

I found the entrance on the shore and entered the Moon Shadow Lake. This place is penetrated by the roots of the osmanthus tree, and its appearance has changed. Roots can be seen from time to time.

The deeper you go, the hotter it gets.

After walking slowly for half an hour, it suddenly became bright in front of us, and then we saw a vast land.

There is no support here, and the heat is rising. There is a huge tree root from top to bottom, straight into the ground fire thousands of feet below.

There was a huge root extending out, and two people were sitting cross-legged on it, Xie Qingxuan and Du Jueming.

"Lin Zhuanlun has come out of seclusion!" Du Jueming greeted Lin Bai very enthusiastically, poured tea, and said: "I heard that you came from a desert island, a commoner who is a casual cultivator, and what you have achieved today is really extraordinary!"

"Brother Du is so complimentary." Lin Bai waved his hand and sighed: "It's really thanks to the support of noble people. I was alone and helpless in Qiaoshan. It was first supported by the Zhu family and the Jiang family, and then I fell into the eyes of the Gu family. today."

"I don't know how many people the Yuanying people in Qiaoshan have helped, but none of them have been able to raise someone like you." Du Jueming kept praising him, "You can achieve Dao Yuanying at such a young age, which shows that your mental aptitudes are excellent. Yes, the future is endless. Although Gu Qingshui has good vision, she would be amazed if she could see fellow Taoist trying the sword on Yueying Lake. "

Speaking of flying knives, Xie Qingxuan also smiled. He looked at Lin Bai and said: "Back then, we were waiting for medicine and almost became a human elixir. If you had such ability back then, Brother Mu and I would never have done that. Embarrassed.”

The two people praised each other when they met, and Lin Bai was always thin-skinned, so he smiled and asked: "The two Taoist brothers here are not just talking about the younger brother, are they?"

"Just some gossip that will lead you thousands of miles away." Xie Qingxuan said with a smile.

"When you are underground, you still have memories of the old places and old people." Lin Bai picked up the tea cup, looked at the sweet-scented osmanthus floating on it, and said, "Back then, we were ordered to go to the far north, but now we have never been there in person. Tianwen Sect, I wonder if Brother Du has a charter?"

"It doesn't matter whether I go or not." Du Jueming was unwilling to go, so he waved his hand directly, "I have already asked clearly. The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance intends to send Huo Wenfei, the ancestor of Tianwen Pai, and has no desire to covet me, Zhou Huishan."

He spread his hands and said, "Besides, even if the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is willing, we only have Patriarch Xiang, and we are still newly transformed gods. How can we block the attack of Patriarch Juexin? So we just have to go with the flow."

"What Brother Du said is true." Lin Bai nodded in agreement, and asked with a smile: "But I have been in the Northern Wilderness Territory for a long time, and I still don't know why the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance attacked the Tianwen Sect. I didn't know the master when I was in the Golden Core Realm before. , I can’t find out anything. If I don’t take a look at Zhengdao Nascent Soul now, wouldn’t I be here in vain?”

Du Jueming said nothing and just drank tea.

Lin Bai looked at Xie Qingxuan again.

"I don't know either." Xie Qingxuan said with a smile.

You can only believe three points of what this man says. But Lin Bai also felt that he didn't know. After all, even Yuexia Toad and Yue Nu didn't know very well.

"Brother Du." Lin Bai brushed off the teacup, replaced the wine glass, and filled it up for Du Jueming diligently and sincerely, "I've been busy with my practice recently, can I ask Brother Du to go to Tianwen Sect and inquire about it?"

"The Tianwen Sect only has its ancestral court left, and it is still surrounded by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. Do I dare to go?" Du Jueming drank the osmanthus wine, but refused, "Besides, going is in vain, and I can't ask anything."

"It doesn't matter. Brother Zhou is an acquaintance. If you go and ask, you can always give him some face." Lin Bai tried his best to persuade him.

"You have been in contact with Zhou Wuji, and they give you face, so why don't you go?" Du Jueming was not fooled at all.

"Oh Brother Du, there are other things happening recently, and Senior Sister Yue still wants to use me." Lin Bai poured another drink.

"I have gained a little recently, and I have learned a new wonderful method, but I can't leave." Du Jueming said.

After arguing for a long time, Lin Bai tried to say whatever he wanted, but Du Jueming drank a lot of wine, but he didn't let up at all.

This Du Jueming has a really bad character. Lin Bai said that he could hang out and make some new friends, and people said that the two people in front of him were the best friends. Lin Bai said that I would help you once in the future, and people said that good friends would not help you no matter what. .

"I'm going back first." Du Jueming stood up with great determination, "Junior Sister Yue has asked me to be the elder who teaches martial arts recently, I have to watch it!"

Lin Bai was speechless, thinking that he was indeed a long-legged fairy.

After Du Jueming left, Lin Bai remembered the business and asked Xie Qingxuan about Gu Qingshan.

"It's not really a secret." Xie Qingxuan did not hide it. "Old Xiang walked in the abyss of Qianhe Sand Land and found a small world. He invited Gu Qingshan, me and Huangpao to go with him. We spent a lot of energy to get in. The small world is called Chengdie Secret Realm. There are many monsters in it, not only Yuanying big monsters, but also many low-level monsters. Old Xiang summoned many Jindan and foundation building from Qiaoshan. Originally, the three of us Yuanying pushed forward all the way, and the juniors cleaned up behind, but we didn't expect that a giant snake of transformation was hidden in the depths of the small world. The giant snake fell asleep and forced the three of us back by instinct. Huangpao died on the spot. Old Gu was also injured by snake venom when he tried to save me. All the juniors of foundation building died, and most of the Jindan died. The remaining few survived for a few years and then died."

At this time, Lin Bai knew the mystery of the death of Zhu family's Jindan.

"Old Gu was seriously injured and had been struggling to survive." Xie Qingxuan looked at the roots of the osmanthus tree from a distance and said, "Later, Gu Qingshui gave birth to a baby, and the Gu family survived. Old Gu lost his determination to survive, and was poisoned by the snake. He lost his mind and reason. Xiang Wuhui saw that he could not be saved, so he forcibly suppressed him."

"So that's how it is." Lin Bai vaguely remembered that when Gu Qingshan was offering sacrifices, Zhu Jiancong of the Zhu family was still there. At that time, Miaomiao was newly accepted as a disciple, and the girl was quite well-behaved at that time.

"Gu Qingshan's life span was not long, and he always liked to make good friends. The book "Entering the Formation" that you cultivated was also given by me to thank the Gu family." Xie Qingxuan said with a smile.

"The ancestors planted trees, and the descendants enjoyed the shade. I can barely be considered half a member of the Gu family." Lin Bai poured wine for Xie Qingxuan.

"Gu Qingshui treats you differently." Xie Qingxuan picked up the wine glass. "Gu Qingshan was killed by Xiang Wuhui, but Gu Qingshui had no complaints. Instead, he frightened the others. No one of the same level dared to pay tribute, only Mu Yao was a man of temperament."

"That time, when Ancestor Xiang invited Mu Yao and Gu Qingshui, did he go to the abyss of Qianhe Sand Land again?" Lin Bai asked curiously.

"That's right, he got the opportunity to become a Taoist that time." Xie Qingxuan smiled slightly.

"Brother Xie has been secretly assisting Ancestor Xiang?" Lin Bai asked curiously.

"People say that only one in ten thousand people can advance to the Nascent Soul stage, which is extremely difficult. But in fact, it is because of the limited vision. Most Nascent Souls are just like Du Jueming."

Xie Qingxuan did not speak directly, and continued: "I have traveled all over the East China Sea and met many people of the same level. Most of them are unbearable. They either sit in a well and look at the world, or have no ambition. People say that Xiang Wuhui, Yun Wujiu and Yin Wuqing have received the favor of the Taoist master, but I can see that Yun Wujiu is mediocre. If he is given a chance in the future, he may not dare to face the thunder tribulation. Yin Wuqing has a treacherous temperament and prefers to take a different path. He can't take the right path, but he has a deep obsession and it is difficult for him to succeed. Among the three, only Xiang Wuhui has the ambition to soar to the sky, so I will do my best to assist him."

He spoke in a light tone, as if he was talking about trivial matters.

"Lin Zhuanlun, do you want to explore the abyss of the Thousand Valleys Sand Land?" Xie Qingxuan asked with a smile, having seen through Lin Bai's thoughts.

"That's true." Lin Bai did not hide it.

"It's a vast place with countless roads, but Lao Xiang only took one." Xie Qingxuan's face was encouraging, "You and Lao Xiang are both under the command of Wuxiang Daozhu, and the road you took is closer to Wuxiang Daozhu, so you should go and take a look. Of course, there are countless dangers, so it's best to bring some helpers."

"I wonder if you are interested, brother?" Lin Bai invited directly.

Xie Qingxuan smiled and waved his hand, "Driving away from Shoutian Pavilion is what I have been thinking about. It has been completed, and I should not go back."

He smiled bitterly and spread his hands, saying: "Besides, now I can only listen to the orders of Junior Sister Yue. If you are really interested, wait until you return to Zhouhui Mountain tomorrow and ask Lao Xiang in person. Although he is a person who seeks the Tao, as long as he does not involve the fundamentals of the Tao, it will be easy to talk."

Seeing that he wanted to see him off, Lin Bai did not stay for long, stood up, bowed, and said goodbye. (End of this chapter)
