Three days after fighting the Jing Demon, Li Ji finally waited for the news he had been looking forward to, and the Heavy Law Daoist would leave Cixi tomorrow and specially appointed him to escort him. "Is it finally coming?" Li Ji knew in his heart that this was his last chance.

The murderous house sacrificed his life to play the demon, ignored the treasure of the well demon, and returned to the town to keep his mouth shut, all of this he did was actually only for the Taoist's guidance. It is difficult to cultivate immortals, especially ordinary people at his age who have no status and network resources. Missing this one, he couldn't think of where to find the next opportunity.

Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven, that's all... He had already decided that even if the Taoist refused this time, he would leave Cixi. The outside world is wonderful, and he doesn't have much time to stay in such a place to accumulate strength... Laziness is a product of time, and getting used to being stable and comfortable can only make him lose the courage to go out more and more... Even if you don't have a chance with Xiuzhen in the end, it's good to go out and take a look while you're young... I made up my mind, and finally let go of the mood of suffering from gains and losses, and I had no dreams all night...

Shuangcheng is located more than 200 miles northwest of Cixi, with many mountainous roads along the way, and occasional bandits, which are not a problem for both Chongfa and Li Ji. The famous Li You is still very deterrent around Cixi, he has walked this road many times by himself, and the thieves don't come to provoke him, there is not much oil and water or a hard bone, why bother?

Cixi prepared a carriage for the Taoist, of course, it was from Wang Dahu, with Li Ji's thoughts, the Taoist is probably not lightly injured in the murderous house, otherwise with his elusive Taoist means, this slow carriage is a pure waste of time.

Out of the requirements of the heavy law, there was no groom arranged for this trip, and there were only two of him in a line, but fortunately, Li Ji was no stranger to catching a car, and he was not as familiar with it, and it was no problem to drive normally.

The two set off early in the morning, had nothing to say all the way, rested at the tip, fed the horses, and Li Ji took care of them alone. The Taoist stayed in the carriage all the time, and he didn't even use the dry food handed over by Li Ji, "Maybe the cultivation is like this, and the food and drink dew describe such a person" Li Ji thought maliciously.

The Taoist didn't say a word, and Li Ji was also a little tired of the expectation in this silence, he didn't like the feeling of being controlled. I didn't rest at night, I hurried all night, and on the second day, after a day and a night of galloping, I finally saw the walls of the twin cities, which were not very tall. On the last hillside before entering the city, the Taoist who had not spoken for a long time knocked on the wall of the car.

Li Ji stopped the carriage, watched the Taoist get out of the car, walked to the hillside and quietly stared at the city wall in the distance, and after a long time, he asked, "Do you know how to cultivate the truth?" “

"I don't understand... Li Ji told the truth, everyone is old and refined, and he always has a feeling of being seen through.

The Heavy Dharma Daoist nodded and said, "The Northern Regions of Hanzhou, the kingdom is hundreds, the big cities are thousands, the population is trillions, and the people who really form the Golden Pill and are expected to live forever are only a few people for more than ten years, do you know what this probability means?" “

Without waiting for Li Ji to answer, the Taoist continued, "Don't mention it far away, let's just say that the south is out of the country, with a population of nearly 100 million, and there are only 100 people who enter the threshold of cultivation every year, and this is just the first step of cultivation. I have practiced for a hundred years, but I still have no way, and I can only enjoy some glory and wealth in this twin cities when I am old. ”

Seeing that Li Ji was silent, the Taoist sighed, "In the eyes of outsiders, monks can use clouds and fog, control water and call fire, and thunder in their palms, which is a great scenery, and it also has an increase in lifespan, so I can't help but yearn for it." But I don't know the way of cultivation, the difficult competition of martial arts, the narrow victory of the official path, the scenery in front of the people, but I don't know how much hard work is behind it. You have a tenacious heart, are resourceful and decisive, do not overflow with exaggeration, and are really a good cultivator in terms of nature, but... You are over ten years old, and your bones are unbearable, but the posture of the middle and lower is a taboo in practice. The so-called wealth and law, you are even more untouchable, forced into this way, but it may not be as easy to get a good end as surviving in the mortal world. ”

The Taoist turned around and looked directly at Li Ji, "If you are a few years younger, depending on your heart, I may be able to accept you as an apprentice, but in your current situation, I am limited by the rules of the teacher, but I can't accept you. ”

"Dao Chief, please speak, the kid will not violate his heart...

"If I have a chance with you, no matter whether it succeeds or not, the cause and effect between you and me will inevitably end, do you know?"

"The kid understands that one chance is enough...

"Cultivation is really difficult, all kinds of passes, and there are many sects, Taoism disputes, and people, demons, ghosts, and other worlds, often fighting for life and death, the Tao has not been cultivated, it is very common, do you know?"

"Achievement is not afraid of life and death, it is better than doing nothing, eating and waiting for death for a lifetime. . . ."

"Once you enter the cultivation, it is as deep as the sea, but when you look back, you have no parents, and your relatives and friends in the mortal world are probably all clouds of smoke, do you know?"

"Although the performance is not alone, there is not much concern in this world...

"So, what I said below, you listened carefully... The Taoist said solemnly, "Although I can't accept you into my door wall, but I have a friend, the Tao is profound, for the Crescent Moon Sect Inner Gate Elders, their Crescent Moon Sect, in September this year, there is a meeting to open the door to accept disciples, this sect has often had difficulties in recent years, and the inheritance within the sect is difficult, so the standard for accepting apprentices has been relaxed a lot, this is your opportunity... If you hold my token, you can get a chance, but whether you can grasp it in the end depends on your luck, but it has nothing to do with me, do you understand? ”

"Thank you for the guidance of the Taoist, the road will eventually come out by yourself, how to complain about others... Li Ji was in a surging mood.

The heavy Dharma Taoist nodded, took out a jade slip from his bag, thought about it, and took out two ingots of fifty taels of gold, "The Crescent Moon Sect is in the territory of the Zhou State, and there is a Taoist temple named Xiaoyue Temple on the outskirts of Shenfang City, the capital of the country. This hundred taels of gold can be regarded as my parting gift... “

"How can this be used, how can you receive money when you have a chance... Li Ji bowed, and then wanted to refuse, when he looked up, there was still a trace of the Taoist in front of him...

Li Ji sighed in his heart, although he did not have much contact with the people who valued the Dharma and Taoism, but this old man had the style of an ancient gentleman, his conduct was noble, his face was cold and his heart was hot, and he could really be a good teacher and helpful friend. Seeing that he is not optimistic about himself like this, could it be that his own roots are really poor? Or is the factor of age so important? After thinking about it, it was fruitless, so I could only press the melancholy in my heart, hide the jade Jane's cherished personal body, turn the horse's head, and go back to Cixi.
