Shen Lian quickened his pace. Although the ancient road in the starry sky was confusing, it could not disorient him. But when he caught up with the green ox, he only saw the old man's deep eyes, with the endless sun, moon and stars spinning, which was the eternal Tao.
Anyone who sees such eyes will be moved and have the joy of "hearing the Tao in the morning and dying in the evening". Shen Lian was not moved or happy because he already understood everything.
He stretched out his hand to hold the old man.
But a gentle force pushed him away, and when he stabilized himself, the old man was far away again.
Shen Lian did not pursue him any further, because if the old man was willing to answer, he would naturally stay. If he doesn't want to, Shen Lian's pursuit will be in vain.
He continued to travel through the ancient starry sky, and finally saw a towering and lush tree with nine large fireballs hanging on it, gathering light. A bow was left under the tree, and the string was broken.
This bow fell into the hands of Dayi. It was a sharp weapon that was inferior to any innate sword. Now the bow string has been broken, and where is Dayi? Is he still alive
Shen Lian picked up the bow and heard the cry of approval. He looked at the nine fireballs in the big tree. They were the three-legged golden crow essence fire breath absorbed by Dayi. This was originally a precious spiritual object, but it was abandoned here. . It can be seen that the situation at that time should be very urgent.
To be precise, Xuandu who was chasing Dayi and the others had no time to collect the essence fire, so they might still be alive.
Shen Lian continued to chase forward, and soon he saw a bracelet. It was a diamond bracelet with a dim look. It was floating on the ancient road in the starry sky. There were flying meteorites passing by, and they were swallowed directly by it, refining the aura of heavenly gold. , replenishing itself.
This shows how urgent Xuandu was to pursue Dayi, and even Jingang Zhuo was willing to give up.
Shen Lian continued to chase, and an endless river appeared in front of him. It wasn't a river made of stars, but I didn't know what it was made of. However, Shen Lian was a little surprised because he saw Dayi and the others.
To be precise, Li Erniu, Chang'e and the cow.
Lao Niu knelt on his knees by the river, as if he was dying of exhaustion. Li Erniu and Chang'e held hands and looked at the river water, where there were reflections of stars and sparkling waves.
Lao Niu's eyes widened and when he saw Shen Lian, he showed a flattering smile and mooed.
Shen Lian patted its horns, and a burst of innate Tao Qi invaded its body, and soon the old cow regained its energy. At the same time, Shen Lian conveniently used the diamond as a nose ring and put it on the cow's nose.
He has little interest in these foreign objects.
Shen Lian threw the bow to Li Erniu and said, "If you want to repair this bow, I will help you find the materials."
Li Erniu shook his head and said: "I won't practice any more. I plan to live in seclusion here with Ah Heng."
Chang'e relied on Li Erniu, this cold fairy with great reputation throughout the ages, but at this moment, she was acting like a little girl. If word got out, no one would believe it.
Shen Lian asked why they avoided Xuandu's pursuit. It turned out that half way through the pursuit, Xuandu suddenly turned in a different direction. Because an old man appeared riding a green bull at that time, they naturally knew that Xuan Du wanted to chase his teacher Taishang.
If you have any doubts at this stage of your cultivation in Xuandu, I am afraid that only the Supreme Being can solve them.
If Xuan Du sought answers from the Supreme Being, he would naturally not be interested in the wonderful enlightenment of Yi and his companions. At that time, they had lost King Kong Taku, and the possibility of Xuandu recovering it again was slim.
Of course, if Xuan Du insists on chasing them, there is no way he can escape unless Shen Lian keeps protecting him.
So they stopped to avoid tiring the old cow to death.
However, living in seclusion here is indeed Li Erniu's desire to return to the eternal world. He has taken it lightly, cherishes Chang'e more, and no longer wants to interfere in the rights and wrongs of the world.
But if you go to live in seclusion elsewhere, you will naturally not find the tranquility that comes with the ancient road under the stars.
Even if the environment here is harsh, it is something that few people can go to, which is exactly what they want.
Shen Lian naturally did not dissuade him. He decided to leave a trace of spiritual energy to Li Erniu and his wife. If they were in danger, he could come in time.
After all, in heaven and on earth, even he, Shen Lian, had no ability to kill this couple in a breath.
Chang'e did not reject Shen Lian's kindness and said: "Shen Lian, let me tell you one more thing. Be careful of Taihao. I don't know whether he has cultivated Hunyuan Wuji, but I have discovered one thing. He was in ancient times. I got some insights from Aloha and asserted that the universe will definitely end, so I have been preparing a magical weapon, trying to rely on the power of that magical weapon to survive the end of the era and reach the other side.
You know that I have practiced the Tao of Taiyin, and I am always somewhat sensitive to time. Some time ago, I vaguely saw traces of him through the long river of time. He really made a magical weapon. It was a ship. The great power contained in it actually made me fear.
And my useless brother Shaohao is also with him. If you are really hostile one day, I hope you will at least give him a chance to reincarnate. "
Shen Lian said: "I have written down the fairy's reminder. If that day comes, I will let him go."
Chang'e felt a little grateful and said, "Thank you very much."
She meant it sincerely, and she had never said such a thing to anyone in all eternity.
Of course, Qingshui Daojun did not do anything similar. Shen Lian felt a little funny in his heart. He should be a little flattered. However, these little thoughts are not known to outsiders.
He said to Lao Niu: "The Vajra Diamond belongs to Yin Xianjun. You took it away for your own reasons. When it's time to end it in the future, I will give you the decree. During this time, you should follow their husband and wife to practice hard and don't slack off." "
Lao Niu said cheekily: "Can I ask Er Niu and the others to be my helpers?"
Li Erniu said: "If that day comes, Brother Niu, I will definitely help you."
Shen Lian smiled and said: "There is no right or wrong unless you enter the world of mortals. There is no place in the world where there is no mortal world."
He sang very few songs, but walked away on the waves of the river.
Chang'e has a profound moral character, and she said: "What does Shen Lian mean? Does he advise us not to get involved in right and wrong, or does he mean that we can't hide from right and wrong?"
Lao Niu said: "Forget it, you know my cause and effect, you don't have to worry about it."
Li Erniu said: "Brother Niu, there is no need to talk about this matter anymore. If you are in trouble, I will help you."
Chang'e didn't persuade him, she was a little worried, but she was also very happy. After all, he was still him, and he was still the upright hero.
… …
Shen Lian did realize that if Li Erniu was involved in Lao Niu's cause and effect, there would be disaster. But he is that kind of person, how could he avoid it.
The words he left behind were both a reminder and a sentiment about God's destiny.
Heaven's heart is the human heart, and it is only now that we can see it clearly.
He drifted along the mysterious river, and at the end, he found the endless ruins. Somewhat unexpected, but also reasonable. Gui Xu is the home of the Demon Master, but the birth of Gui Xu has nothing to do with the Demon Master.
A flash of sword intent alarmed Shen Lian.
