Chapter 1885 Taoism
Yuan Ya quickly surpassed Xiao Hua, and when Xiao Hua walked in front of the Taoist temple, Yuan Ya came out of the Taoist temple quickly and went down the mountain road.
After Yuan Ya walked by, Xiao Hua raised his head and carefully looked at the so-called Taoism in the old man's mouth.
This Taoist temple is extremely broken, far from the blue bricks and green tiles that Xiao Hua saw from a distance, the so-called beauty is produced from a long distance, and it is also because of the greenery around the Taoist temple.
In front of the Taoist temple is a dilapidated small archway. The archway is only a few feet wide and narrow, and the size is two feet. There is no color on it, only black stains and rust spots after the wind and rain. There is an even more dilapidated plaque directly above the archway, the handwriting on it is abnormally blurred, Xiao Hua took a few glances, but couldn't tell what was written.
Behind the archway is a small courtyard, a gateway a few feet shorter than the archway. The door was half-closed at this time, and on the red wooden door, except for a few damaged gaps, there was light shining through, and the paint flakes that were lifted due to dryness were densely packed like scales on sea fish.
Xiao Hua pushed open the wooden door and made a cracking sound, obviously the door hinge hadn't been oiled for a long time.
Behind the wooden door is a shadow wall, which has almost collapsed, but it blocks Xiao Hua's sight, and cannot see the situation in the courtyard.
After Xiao Hua turned around the screen wall and saw everything in the Taoist temple clearly, he sighed slightly.
This Taoist temple is only tens of feet in size, and a huge pine tree in the courtyard has already occupied most of the courtyard. Behind the pines is a main hall, in which is enshrined a strange statue, which is about three feet high, with only half a face, blue face and red lips, and it seems to be holding a sword in its hand. But there was only one hilt left on the sword. Like the wooden door at the mountain gate, the painted sculpture around the statue had fallen off extremely badly, and the black-gray wood was exposed in many places.
In front of the statue is a small desk with three red candles the size of a fist. But at this time, these red candles were all extinguished and never lit.
In front of the table are two futons, one is placed in the center, and the other is slightly behind, away from the statue.
The west side of the main hall seems to be a small hall, but unfortunately there are no statues in it. There is only one table and half a broken red candle.
There are east and west wing rooms on both sides of the main hall. There are several statues enshrined in the west wing from north to south. Unfortunately, compared with the main hall, the statues are much damaged, and the appearance of the statues can hardly be seen! There are no statues in the east wing, but a living place that looks clean! At this time, the old man was busy walking up and down inside, and there were some crisp ringtones from time to time.
Xiao Hua roughly looked it over, and then scanned it with Soul Consciousness. Knowing that Yuan Ya's spar was placed around the dilapidated statues in the West Wing,
It was also the footsteps that moved again, and slowly walked to the west wing room, and threw the spar into the room.
Then, Xiao Hua thought for a while, turned around and came out of the West Wing, ready to walk out of the Taoist Temple. Then go to get the spar, at this moment, the sound of "Dangdang", a strange sound, and the sound of footsteps came from the west wing room, Xiao Hua looked up, it was the old man who walked out of the house.
Seeing the old man's attire, Xiao Hua was taken aback.
I saw that the old man had changed into a Taoist robe, which was brand new and without folds, and on his head was wearing a hat that seemed to be a Taoist crown. It's a pity that the color of the hat and the priest's robe are different, which looks a bit awkward. The old man held two things in his hand, the left hand was a bell, which was wrapped in flannelette and made no sound; the right hand was a bamboo pole more than ten feet long. There is also a small brown cloth streamer on the top of the bamboo pole, with the word "Tao" written on it. That weird sound came from the bamboo pole hitting the ground. As for the old man, apart from a yellow cloth bag on his left shoulder, there is also a mahogany sword on his back shoulder!
"Huh..." The old man snorted coldly when he saw Xiao Hua still standing in the yard, the bamboo pole paused on the ground, and said, "The old man is going to take Yuan Ya out, you will take those stones from the foot of the mountain today Move here! Remember, you are not allowed to eat until the move is over!"
"Dao..." Xiao Hua really couldn't laugh or cry! I am a dignified monk, although I am in trouble now, but... But why don't I have to rely on moving stones to earn a living? Besides, do you know this old man? Is it necessary to be in such a narrow Taoist temple even if it is just to eat a living? Besides, when I came out of the spirit stone, I didn't have any injuries at all, and I was still alive. I knew that I was a stranger. Why couldn't this old man see it? On the contrary, a look of not being afraid of oneself, not only not respectful, but even a bit annoying, just saying what task he wants to accomplish?
It's a pity that just as Xiao Hua said the word "Tao...", the old man just waved his hands impatiently: "I'm called the old man Daoist!! I don't know where you learned it from, fellow Taoist, and where did you come from? We met! What a bad luck..."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xiao Hua to answer, he strode out of the Taoist temple in a self-satisfied stride, looking at the old man with his chest upright, he is quite magnificent!
Xiao Hua opened his mouth, but after hearing the last few incomprehensible words of the so-called Taoist priest, he still shook his head with a wry smile: "Forget it, no matter how people say that they split themselves out of the spirit stone, there should be a cause and effect. No matter how the old man misunderstood, Xiao... let's move the stone first! After moving the stone, Xiao will leave!"
Thinking about it, Xiao Hua slowly moved to the tattered door of the Taoist temple step by step. The incomparable heaviness around his body really made Xiao Hua uncomfortable, compared to the chicness of going to the West Sea for Nine Heavens before, it is really a world of difference!
Just as Xiao Hua moved out of the mountain gate, he heard the old man shouting in the distance: "Ya..., hurry up, hurry up, throw this thing to that kid, the matter of Lu Yuanwai's house... the old man thought about it, it's still early It’s good to be in the past! He is a dignitary in the town, so it’s rare that he sent someone to invite the old man three days earlier! The old man has to give others a face, doesn’t he?”
"Yes, master!" Yuan Ya has already reached 30% of the mountain road after such a short time, and seeing the master rushing towards him, he agreed cleanly.
Xiao Hua could understand Yuan Ya's words, and with a smile at the corner of his mouth, a loyal and honest Xiangyang face appeared in his mind.
"The two masters and apprentices... are also interesting!" Xiao Hua originally had the intention of leaving in his heart, but he frowned again, and said with a smile, "It's not in a hurry to send Liu'er to the Paradise of Bliss. The ancients said Well, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. Xiao Mou is struggling now, even if he wants to, he is powerless. The soil crystal in this body has been refined, and it will not be a few years? Instead of hiding in the cave and practicing hard, how about Follow this pair of master and apprentice, see the hearts of the people in this ancient town, and read about the various attitudes of the Hidden Immortal Continent, maybe it will be beneficial to the pregnant baby!"
When it comes to pregnant babies, Xiao Hua is a little sad again! It seems that I have never heard of a monk who practiced and practiced and lost the golden core, right? Now although he has just started to temper the earth crystal milk, Xiao Hua feels that there will still be a small amount of true energy pouring into the lower dantian, but the invisible golden pill in the lower dantian is like a bottomless deep pool, no matter how much true energy and true energy Yuan's entry is full of acceptance, and Xiao Hua is afraid that one day this golden core will burst magically.
"Of course, that step seems to be too early! Xiao..." Xiao Hua thought, slowly walking down the mountain road. However, this mountain road has always been easy to go up and difficult to go down. Xiao Hua can't control his hands and feet now. He just walked a few steps and swiped his feet. He is a dignified late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator who has already stepped into Nascent Soul with half a foot... Unexpectedly, it turned over and rolled down from the mountain road like a gourd!
"Grandma's... really embarrassing!" Xiao Hua almost cried out, he is almost two hundred years old, and he is so embarrassing!
Well, fortunately, there will be no one on this mountain road, and the so-called Taoist leader and Yuan Ya have just left, at worst, he would roll halfway and stop on the side of the road, at worst, he would fall into the river again! I am not afraid of the majestic West Sea, but I am afraid of this?
It's also a coincidence that Xiao Hua's Rolling Gourd is far from being as weak as Xiao Hua thought, and it keeps rolling down without stopping at all! It seems that if nothing else happens, it is really going to roll into the mountain road under the mountain.
"Huh..." Just when Xiao Hua was extremely depressed in his heart, thinking about what method to use to stop, but heard a sound like the roar of a wild beast, and immediately after, Xiao Hua felt a huge force in front of him blocking him, and Xiao Hua Under this huge force, Hua's figure rushed down several feet, and then stopped.
Waiting until Xiao Hua raised his eyes to look, it was Yuan Ya who had left just now, and he didn't know when he returned. Yuan Ya blocked himself with his hands, but his own arm had scratched several feet above the ground, and it was already bloody.
"Are you okay?" Although Yuan Ya's words were short, Xiao Hua didn't understand, but looking at the smile in Yuan Ya's eyes, and the trace of concern, Xiao Hua felt hot in his heart. What he knew in his heart was that his body was full of earth crystal milk, and his own body felt extremely heavy, so how heavy was his physical body! Of course, it can't be counted that way. But even if it's nothing like Tu Jingyao's milk, if you roll down from tens of feet, how big is the fall! If this Yuan Ya hadn't been powerful, he might have been rushed down the mountain road by himself, right?
Xiao Hua shook his head slightly, expressing that he was fine.
Yuan Ya looked at it, the concern on his face disappeared, and he returned to indifference, a kind of natural vigilance revealed from his eyes. Immediately, Yuan Ya stretched out his hands and swiped a few times on the mountain road. His hands were covered with dust, and he rubbed his left and right arms twice in front of Xiao Hua. The dust really blocked the bleeding place. After a while, the yellowish dust turned into brownish red and gradually condensed.
"You..." Xiao Hua was shocked, he never thought that the injury could be dealt with like this!
But Yuan Ya ignored Xiao Hua's surprise at all, rubbed his hands on his Taoist robe a few times, quickly took out an oil bag from his bosom, stuffed it into Xiao Hua's hand, but ran off without saying a word mountain to go. In particular, Yuan Ya's foothold is not the real mountain path, but the surrounding rocks and low thorns. However, the sharpness of Yuan Ya's hands and feet is more powerful than ordinary mountain beasts. (To be continued.
