Many years ago, the baby-faced childish Xiaodao opened the door of the villa in Qingcheng Villa and called her "Senior Sister Lin".
That was not her fellow apprentice, but there was a lively forum called "Cultivation Watch Tribe" in the Huaxia cultivation world at that time, and a group of young Qi training monks in Huaxia called her "Senior Sister Lin".
Later, when the foundation was established in Jinling, "Senior Sister Lin" became "Uncle Lin" when she reappeared. As her seniority rose, there were very few young monks who dared to play around with her.
Master Huizhu of Qingcheng Temple had a good attitude towards Lin Luoran at the beginning. If Xin Yuanping hadn't been mixed in, she and Qingcheng Temple wouldn't be so embarrassing when they met each other.
Huizhu chose to take the disciples of Qingcheng Temple to hide from the world for a hundred years as an confession to the Chinese practice world, thus saving Xin Yuanping. Since then, Lin Luoran has never seen that stern-faced old Taoist again. The talented baby-faced Xiao An was kicked out of Qingcheng Temple by Huizhu. To be honest, Lin Luoran didn't understand Huizhu's way of doing things.
Fast forward hundreds of years, and I vaguely remember that before the relationship with Qingchengguan became tense, Xiao An was quite close to the Lin family. He was a very innocent young man who loved to cook.
But the old site of Qingcheng Temple collapsed, and the mad Taoist once used the spiritual pulse of Qingcheng Temple to deploy the "Liangyi Mote Array" to treat Baojia. By the time she returned to modern civilization from overseas fairy mountains, the top of Mount Qingcheng had been flattened, leaving only a pile of broken bricks and rubble on the site of Qingcheng Temple, and the messy Mount Qingcheng had also become a lair of mutant beasts.
At this time, the brick-by-tile houses that appeared in front of her were inexplicably familiar. After the Taoist in Tsing Yi appeared, Lin Luoran suddenly realized: they were built according to the old appearance of the Qingcheng Temple!
The Tsing Yi Taoist in front of the vertical arch door asked each other, "Senior Sister Lin, don't come here unharmed", because there are hundreds of years in between, whether it is kindness or hatred, when the old people meet again, Lin Luoran will only feel the turmoil in his heart .
"Xiao'an... You are also a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator now, and you are called Senior Sister, let's let it go."
The childishness on the baby's face has long since disappeared, the thin cheeks reveal the unique edges and corners of young people, and the temperament of the whole body has also changed greatly. The young man who used to be full of fireworks in the world is now wearing a Tsing Yi Taoist robe, but he has a sense of being out of the world .
A fly in the ointment, Xiaoan's left eyebrow has a scar that bends like a crescent moon, ruining his impeccable appearance.
From a simple little Taoist priest who grew up in the mountains, he transformed into a noble son with a natural posture and gestures. The gap is too great, so that the excitement of reuniting with the old man has been diluted a lot.
Seeing that Xiao An just smiled, Lin Luoran asked, "Are you the big brother they talk about?"
Of course, Qingchengguan's "big brother" cannot be tolerated on the territory of Tianjizong. What happened to Xiao An, who was once foolishly loyal to Qingchengguan, caused him to choose to change sects.
"The island is remote, Senior Sister Lin may be tired after traveling all the way, why don't you follow me to the side hall for now, sit down and discuss in detail?"
Hundreds of years are too long, whether it's reminiscing about the past or getting some news from Xiaoan, standing in the yard is really not a good way to talk.
Mu Tiannan patted her on the shoulder to encourage her, and as soon as Xiao An moved, Lin Luoran slowed down and followed her.
There are several clumps of mottled bamboos planted in the backyard, budding buds dotted on the tops of the osmanthus trees higher than the roof, a table of vegetarian dishes, a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus, three sets of bowls and chopsticks, and several seasonal fresh vegetables have been arranged on the table under the tree Fresh and tender, there is a plate of fried tofu with golden brown on both sides, which looks very similar to Xiaoan's handicraft.
After the guests and hosts sat down, Xiao An's attitude was very calm, and Lin Luoran didn't argue about the time for the meal. The three of them drank two glasses politely and ate up the dishes on the table.
Putting down the chopsticks, Xiaodaotong, who was sweeping the floor in front of the audience, swiftly removed the leftovers from the bowls and chopsticks. Lin Luoran looked at his back thoughtfully.
The meal was quiet, but too quiet. In such a big Taoist temple, apart from Xiaoan, the Taoist boy sweeps the floor, and the same Taoist boy cleans up the dishes, and there are too few people.
"Mingyue, go and make three cups of maple dew tea from my house."
Xiaodao Tong Mingyue heard the news and was about to leave, Lin Luoran smiled: "If you don't mind, I still have some tea in my hand, would you like to taste it, fellow Daoist An?"
Xiaoan called her "Senior Sister Lin", and Lin Luoran called her "Friend Daoist An" in return. There was actually Xin Yuanping, who was intimidating between the two of them, and she took the initiative to distance herself, so as not to miss Xiaoan's favor when facing Xin Yuanping in the future. scruples.
Listening to her address, Xiao An is not annoyed, or he is a great disciple of the Tianji Sect, and now there are very few things that can make Xiao An worry.
Earlier, Lin Luoran had already transferred most of his belongings out of the drastic change in the bead space, except for spirit grasses and medicines, there was also a lot of spirit tea. She took out a bamboo tube and handed it to Mingyue. After a while, Xiao Daotong brought three cups of tea, and the fragrance of the tea wafted away. Xiao An took two sips and was a little surprised:
"Jasmine | scented tea... is the taste of the earth."
It is the taste of the earth, and it is also the taste of Sichuan.
Compared with Dahongpao and Biluochun, Jasmine|Scented Tea is not worth mentioning, but before the new era, this tea did occupy a large part of the tea market in Central Sichuan. As far as Lin Luoran knew, there were jasmine tea trees growing in several towns near the Lijia Village where she grew up, and Xiao An, who grew up in Qingcheng Temple, had indeed drunk this tea.
Now Xiaoan is obviously a disciple of Tianji Sect, but he lives in the same house as Qingcheng Temple. Seeing his attitude after drinking tea, you can tell that he misses the past very much.
This kind of Xiaoan drives away the strangers after the reunion, Lin Luoran has no intention of making friends, but she also doesn't like the feeling that things are completely out of control.
The same flavor of scented tea, the three people drink different flavors. Mu Tiannan has kept a low profile since entering the temple. There is a "Qingcheng Temple" hidden on the isolated island in the western sea area of the Lanhu Xingtianjizong's sphere of influence, and he pretends to wait for the two to come to the door. Acting very unhappy.
Just at this time, Xiao An seemed to have just remembered, put down the teacup and said to Mu Tiannan:
"I almost forgot to congratulate Senior Brother Mu on his success in cultivation. If Mr. Mu heard about it, he must be very pleased."
Mu Tiannan stared at Xiao An for a while, as if he wanted to see a flower on his face, and asked sullenly, "The implication is that you not only know the whereabouts of the Lin family, but you also brought my old man with you?"
The tone couldn't hide the sarcasm, going around in circles and conspiring is not what the third brother is good at, even if he is full of jasmine|scented tea, he always asks this question. Mu Tiannan didn't like Tianjizong's attitude of "I know the world's affairs but I don't talk about it", so he directly brought up the topic.
The tacit understanding between Lin and Mu has been together for hundreds of years. One person sings with a red face and the other with a bad face. Mu Tiannan's face was too tense, so she relaxed the topic:
"Fellow Daoist An, why don't you see other Taoists in the audience in such a big Taoist temple?"
What about Huizhu? Even if Xin Yuanping wasn't around, there were more than a few people who left Earth in Qingcheng Temple.
Lin Luoran intended to change the subject, but when he said this, Xiao An, who kept smiling despite Mu Tiannan's unfriendly attitude, suddenly changed his expression.
Confusion, pain, self-blame and nostalgia, several emotions flashed in Xiaoan's eyes, repelling the ethereal charm of the eldest disciple of Tianji Sect, as if an exiled immortal had finally descended into the clouds.
"Is there anyone in the Qingcheng Temple, that's all, Senior Sister Lin is considered to have met Qingcheng Temple, the master of the temple has spoken highly of you in the past... Come with me."
Xiao An supported her forehead with her hands, trembling slightly as her fingers swept over the crescent-shaped scar at the end of her eyebrows.
The spiritual energy in the body of a monk in the Nascent Soul stage combs the meridians and nourishes the cells all the time. Even a broken limb can find a way to regenerate, let alone a small scar on the face—unless the owner of the body voluntarily leaves it.
...
The "copied" Qingcheng Temple has a main hall dedicated to the patriarch.
On the altar facing the gate of the hall, several rows of wooden frames were built at different heights. On the altar, a purple-gold incense burner was inserted, and a stick of incense was burned for more than half. In addition, there was a hollowed-out copper stove for incense in the center of the main hall. There is a curling fragrance in it.
But the doors and windows with excellent lighting provided a good view, Lin Luoran looked up and saw several rows of wooden shelves densely packed with memorial tablets.
The tablet placed in the center has red letters on a black background, and it is written "the spiritual tablet of the first teacher Huizhu Taoist".
Huizhu old way, unexpectedly fell!
Lin Luoran made no secret of her astonishment. Huizhu's dao foundation is not bad, otherwise he would not have become the number one person in China's cultivation world under the extremely poor practice environment. Of the three old friends she met after arriving in the sub-spiritual world, it doesn’t matter if Zhixiu is a Buddhist sect, only Xin Yuanping and Xiao Anju have successfully advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, which made her subconsciously believe that this world is a fertile ground for monks. Abundant aura, but comprehension pays attention to the matching of cultivation base and realm, without one of the two, it is impossible to advance.
If you can't advance, you can only die.
The lifespan of a monk in the Nascent Soul Stage is 800, and the time spent practicing Huizhu Taoism is at most no more than 600 years. Could it be that he has not even broken through the Nascent Soul Stage
The dense number of memorial tablets on the altar made people feel numb, and a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared, no, she was wrong! Huizhu pursues the way of heaven with all his heart, and with his persistence, it is impossible to stop at the stage of alchemy in the sub-spirit world. As evidenced by the tablet tablets of many Qingcheng gatekeepers on the stage, the fall of Huizhu was man-made... The perfectly copied but empty Qingcheng Temple, except for Xin Yuanping and Xiao An, were all killed by someone
The atmosphere in the hall was too oppressive, Lin Luoran and Mu Tiannan silently burned two sticks of incense.
They didn't mention it, but Xiao An, who was in a gloomy mood, took the initiative to tell:
"Senior Sister Lin, it turns out that a single Daoist foundation is an aptitude that is rare in a hundred years in the vast and boundless world of comprehension. He Dehe Neng, a small earth, managed to gather the five elements at once. Four hundred years ago, the monks on the earth worked together to open the Tongtian Tower , not only to protect the earth under artillery fire, but also to find the last way out of practice.
At that time, everyone was apprehensive and longing for the world on the other side of the Tongtian Tower. Things went smoothly, the protection of God was opened, and we came to the real cultivation world as we wished... The only mistake was probably that the various factions and kingdoms communicated with each other during the teleportation. Watch out for not shaking hands with each other. "
The monks who teleported away from the earth after turning on "God's Protection" did not have a star map in their hands. There are various forces among them, and after the crisis is resolved, the relationship is not so good that they hold hands and teleport together, so after reaching the sub-spirit world at the other end of the Tongtian Tower, the monks teleported from the earth are scattered on various planets in the cultivation world.
Some of them were lucky enough to find the sect they had migrated from before.
There are also little monks who are unlucky, who miscalculated the cruelty of the real cultivation world, and acted a little improperly, which caused the beheading of high-ranking monks.
But among this group of monks, the most eye-catching ones are the five single-path foundation geniuses who have assembled the five elements.
The news was leaked from a little monk who came with him. Even in the peaceful world of Chinese cultivation, during the time when Lin Luoran was trapped in the Jinling Underground Palace, there were many people who had tried the Luodong idea of Dantu Daoji. .
In such a vast world of cultivation, geniuses with a single Dao foundation will inevitably be born every hundred years, but it is difficult to raise five monks with five elements and a single Dao foundation at the same time.
Just as there are prophecies and legends on the earth, the five-element single-path foundation can lead the monks on the earth to find a fertile soil for practice, which is the hope of the practice world. Of course, there are similar sayings in the sub-spiritual world.
There is a saying among the major ancient forces that the pure and flawless power of the five elements can eliminate ancient barriers and is the "power of breaking boundaries".
Above the realm of comprehension, there is the world of spirits, and there is the world of immortals... Monks who pursue the way of heaven are also greedy, as long as there is enough existence to impress them, with this kind of greed, the monks with the ability to evade mountains and seas will bring far more damage. Worse than a mortal emperor holding a heavy army!
Especially the five single-daoist monks from the earth, all of them have similar cultivation bases, what a balanced and perfect power of the five elements.
A big faction wanted to gather all five of them into their hands, which aroused public outrage. Finally, after constant fighting and compromise, Xiao'an's five people were in different situations.
Of course, the little Qingcheng Temple can't protect Xiaoan, but it can obviously hide when it realizes the danger. The key point is that the Qingcheng Temple, which is already at a disadvantage, has Xin Yuanping.
Xin Yuanping had hooked up with Yin Shanzong at that time, and after plotting against Zhixiu, the Wuxingdandaoji incident had basically been tacitly fired in the cultivation world. Huizhu judged that the situation was not right and took Qingcheng audience to hide safely. Follow the unique contact method of Qingcheng Temple to come to your door.
In a few days, the Yinshan sect arrived, and all the people in Qingcheng temple survived except Xiao'an and Xin Yuanping.
"Actually, before the master died, he guessed that it was Senior Sister Xin who leaked the news, otherwise he wouldn't have forced me to swear by the heart demon, and I would never lay hands on Senior Sister Xin in this life."
For Xin Yuanping, the guilt that had tortured Huizhu Taoist for most of his life was probably gone before his death. Even though he knew that he was sorry for the many disciples who died in Qingchengguan, he still forced Xiaoan to swear by the heart demon, because of Xiaoan's humiliating feelings for him. , and will violate.
Huizhu is a person who does everything according to his own mind.
Even if Xiaoan didn't kill Xin Yuanping, the latter killed Huizhu and his familiar Qingcheng Guantong sect. The honest man who had no worries in the world was forced to a dead end and made a stronger counterattack.
On the surface, he complied with Yin Shanzong's solicitation, but in fact he kept destroying the relationship between Xin Yuanping and Yin Shanzong secretly.
When the rift between Xin Yuanping and Yinshan Sect could not be reconciled, Xiaoan escaped from Yinshan Sect, joined the most mysterious Tianji Sect in the cultivation world, and became the suzerain's disciple. Shanmu Daoji turned out to be not only talented in talismans, but once Xiaoan got serious, his potential even the Tianji sect would be astonished.
However, Xin Yuanping was burdened by Xiaoan. Even though she practiced all the way to the Nascent Soul stage, the Yinshan sect only recognized her as a "King Qing".
His real talent is actually in deduction of numerology, astrology and divination, which no one has ever set foot in in the world of cultivation on earth!
Of course, Tianjizong is not the same as the earth's feng shui fortune teller. Take deduction and numerology as an example, ordinary fortune tellers with real skills can read the fate of ordinary people, and even help change their fortunes. Tianjizong's astrology and divination objects are as small as heaven Cultivating monks are more concerned with the fate of the sect, and even the ups and downs of the cultivation world-it is said that the ability to deduce to the extreme, from the top to the poor, the fate of the sky, and the bottom to the nine secluded worlds, can truly change the fate against the sky.
Xiao An's talent in deduction quickly made him the most important disciple of the suzerain.
The Tianji Sect's hopes for him have long since ceased to be such vague ideas as "the power of the world", but are cultivating him as a pillar of the sect.
"The suzerain is really generous to me. Although I promised my master not to attack Senior Sister Xin, she will die sooner or later. As long as the result is the same, what does the process matter?"
Xiao An's smile makes people feel like a spring breeze, but Lin Luoran feels chills in his heart.
The person in front of him is no longer the shy boy with a baby face. The fried tofu he made is still delicious, but once the simple person has hatred in his heart, he will never return to the beginning.
"You said Xin Yuanping would die unexpectedly, what did you do?"
Xiao An turned her head sideways and looked in the direction of the altar in the hall, her face was obscured by the green smoke.
"I'm just telling the truth and telling some people that Senior Sister Lin will appear on Tiankui Planet when she teleports from Earth... Senior Sister Lin, didn't you meet Brother Wen Guanjing on Tiankui Planet?"
Xiao An changed the subject and mentioned Wen Guanjing again.
Mu Tiannan frowned so much that he could kill a fly, Xiao An's thoughts jumped too fast, and his mental state was a little abnormal.
Why did Wen Guanjing be mentioned again suddenly, Lin Luoran motioned him to continue.
"Oh, it might be more appropriate to call him Sect Master Wen when we meet again." Xiao'an said enviously, "Five elements are single-path foundation, there are people like me whose sect has been destroyed by others, and there are also those with extraordinary luck like Senior Brother Wen..."
It is very enviable in the cultivation world to be ordered by Xiaoan with the words "good luck".
But after Wen Guanjing left the earth, his luck was really good.
There is no sect called "Shushan" in the world of comprehension, but there is a line with deep roots called "Jianzong". Jianzong is not like ordinary cultivation sects recruiting disciples to expand the territory. It only recruits sword cultivators, and the disciples are expensive but not expensive. With flying swords in hand, they are the strongest human-shaped swords!
Especially more than a thousand years ago, when more than 800 sword cultivators suddenly appeared in the cultivation world, their strength was not the strongest, but the strength of the 800 people could be united.
Jianzong took the initiative to recruit this group of monks. At that time, not many people knew that this group of sword cultivators who appeared suddenly came from a sect called "Shushan" on Earth.
Ye Zhao is known as the "Young Master Wuyou" for his astonishing and brilliant performance. Leaving aside his talent in swordsmanship, the team of more than 800 people under his leadership for many years has condensed into a force that is as powerful as a sword. Hitting a sharp blade wherever it is is something that has never been heard in the world of comprehension.
Eight hundred sword cultivators can hold together as a group, but after more than a hundred years, this group of sword cultivators has grown up, and of course the sword sect has become their final say!
Jianzong was slowly branded with the brand of Shushan. Even though the former Shushan sword cultivators ascended and fell, after more than a thousand years, in fact, except for the different name, Jianzong is another Shushan sect.
When Wen Guanjing appeared in the dual identity of Danhuo Daoji and the descendant of Shushan, no force dared to make a mistake. Wen Guanjing brought the Shushan monks who came with him, smoothly joined Jianzong, and officially took over as the successor thirty years ago. The position of the suzerain of Jianzong.
Suddenly, Xiao An said that he did not take revenge on Xin Yuanping.
He just deduced that Lin Luoran would appear on Tiankui Star, and released the news.
What tempted the monk's Taoism more than four hundred years ago was that Lin Luoran was only one person, but he had the most balanced and perfect proportion of the five elements.
Xin Yuanping knew it, Yin Shanzong knew it, and many major sects including Jianzong knew it.
But no one knew Lin Luoran's strength. Xiaoan took advantage of this. Not only did Xin Yuanping take the initiative to go to Tiankuixing to expose Lin Luoran, but when Yin Shanzong wanted to occupy the land and catch Lin Luoran, Jianzong under the leadership of Wen Guanjing was To save people.
In the end, Yin Shanzong, who once massacred Guanmanmen in Qingcheng, was defeated, and the faction's power was almost shattered! The traitor Xin Yuanping, who is not familiar with Qingcheng, took the initiative to provoke Lin Luoran again!
"Senior Sister Lin, look, I remember clearly what I promised the temple master."
Xiaoan had some nostalgia when she called Senior Sister Lin. Compared with the viewer's own daughter, the so-called "Senior Sister Xin", he really hopes that his senior sister is the person in front of him—she is a female cultivator who can make any sect proud, regardless of her qualifications or character, why doesn't she belong to Qing What about city view
"Does Senior Sister Lin still want to ask about the whereabouts of her family?"
Lin Luoran was silent. Xiaoan and Wen Guanjing's completely different situations frightened her. The Lin family has two five-element single-dao foundations. If the nest is full, will there be whole eggs
In the eerie silence, Daotong Mingyue opened the door and came in.
"Master, Master Uncle is here."
Xiao An nodded, "Understood, you go back to your room and don't come out no matter what you hear later, okay?"
Mingyue scratched her head and stepped back obediently, Lin Luoran felt that Mingyue gave people the impression of Xiao An in the past, a quiet and simple little Taoist priest.
Mu Tiannan looked in the direction of the gate and sneered, since the Qingcheng Temple is dead, the person Mingyue calls Master Uncle cannot be a member of Tianji Sect!
Surrounded by several beautiful nuns, Xin Yuanping turned around the arched door, and when she saw the people standing in the courtyard, the smile on her face froze at first, and then became very bright.
"Brother An!"
No wonder Junior Brother An asked her to come to Lanhu Xing. He knew that Po Whirling Xing would not be able to trap Lin Luoran.
Xiao An also laughed, unlike Xin Yuanping's self-satisfaction, in his smile was the clarity of knowing everything.
