Chapter 76 Returning to the Mountain Gate to Meet Wang Chuchen

Wu Yi hardly rested on the way back to Liucheng from Nancheng, the main town of Nanjun, for fear that Shu Yunyun would suddenly remember something and catch up from behind, and then he would be ravaged again. Although he was unwilling to admit it, Wu Yi did have a psychological shadow on Shu Yunyun.

Among the bustling crowd in Liucheng, Wu Yi finally found a trace of peace, and his mind returned to considering why Shu Yunyun appeared in the motorcade of the abandoned prince Ping Yunzhi.

Shu Yunyun did not protect her sister and came to this remote place to pick up a person who had lost power, the former abandoned prince, and now the King of Anle.

Not long ago, Emperor Ping Yunce conferred the title of King of Anle on his elder brother. The intention was to look at the name and know that he hoped that his prestigious elder brother would not come out to make trouble and live in peace. The imperial edict was issued to all directions, and local governments also stepped up the publicity of the emperor's benevolence and brotherly love.

However, judging from the fact that Shu Yunyun went to protect Ping Yunzhi, Ping Yunce was clearly building a plank road in the open but secretly attacking Chencang. On the one hand, he gave a generous reward, but on the other hand, he sent people to assassinate Ping Yunzhi. When Ping Yunce died, he would cry hypocritically to show his grief. The common people would not blame him for this. Even the officials and scholars who were familiar with this section could not say anything without evidence.

In this way, a huge hidden danger was removed. Without him, the big brother who once had a great reputation, the queen also lost an important bargaining chip. No wonder the queen attached so much importance to this matter.

Wu Yi, who was frightened by Shu Yunyun, had no intention of getting involved in this. He wanted to see a snake, but he didn't expect to find a dragon. Wu Yi's inner bitterness was really hard to tell others.

The struggle for the highest power in Dayu Kingdom entered a battle for the first move. Both sides wanted to win a good starting point. All the cards were played. Wu Yi was not even qualified to be a chess piece. An unintentional wave could knock his small body over.

It was a hundred miles from Zhennan City to Liucheng. Wu Yi ran without stopping. Although he was exhausted after stopping, he recovered after a little breathing. Wu Yi guessed that this was the result of the strength foundation, but he did not expect that the blood light all over his body was also partly responsible.

The next step was to return to the mountain gate, but the distance from Liucheng to Liucheng Yiqi Taoist Temple was three hundred miles. It seemed incredible that Zhennan City was only a hundred miles away from Liucheng, and Liucheng Yiqi Taoist Temple was named Liucheng, which meant that it was near Liucheng, but it was so far away.

The reason was not difficult to understand. The mountain gate of the Taoist temple was located in a mountain range with heavy rocks and peaks. The straight-line distance might be thirty miles, but if you had to cross dozens of peaks in the middle, the distance would be infinitely extended. Most of the paths you had to take were winding mountain roads. Many times you saw a mountain over there in the morning, it was so close, and after walking for a day, you would still see it in the evening, as if you were standing still all day.

It is not just the Yiqi Taoist Temple in Liucheng that is arranged in this way. Most Taoist temples are arranged in such places. If it is really a plain, the Taoist temple will plant trees widely or set up some psychedelic arrays by itself. These actions are nothing more than deliberately separating from the world of mortals for the sake of pure cultivation.

However, such an arrangement forced Wu Yi, who wanted to return to the mountain gate in one breath, to choose to stop and rest for a while after crossing ten mountains. Here, Wu Yi could already see the towering Taoist temples in the gaps between the mountains. The most conspicuous one is naturally the Mingxin Hall of Mingdao Peak, after all, it is the main hall of the main peak.

In the evening, Wu Yi finally returned to the mountain gate. The five-term disciples of the mountain gate, not counting the female disciples, totaled only more than a hundred people. Moreover, Wu Yi was a rising star in the sect, so the guards naturally recognized him. Although they were a little puzzled that Wu Yi did not return with other disciples who went to the inner gate together, they still opened the mountain gate to let Wu Yi in.

After nearly two months of fighting and fighting, Wu Yi felt like a wanderer returning home when he returned to the mountain gate. Although there were still various conflicts in the mountain gate, Wu Yi had grown up to the point where the internal fighting in the Taoist temple was no longer important, especially since he was now at the foundation of strength and could be on an equal footing with a group of professors, and he had to look far ahead.

Similarly, Wu Yi went to Wang Chuchen's cave to request an interview. This time, Wang Chuchen was not in seclusion, and Wu Yi was able to enter Wang Chuchen's cave after the Taoist child passed on the message.

When Wu Yi saw Wang Chuchen, he was playing the flute. One person, one flute, a majestic person, and a green flute. However, the pleasant flute sound was suppressed in the cave, without a trace leaking out. Similarly, the external noise was also shielded from the cave, and no trace could enter.

Surrounded by the flute sound, combined with the scholar's clothes that Wang Chuchen was wearing now, who would have thought that Wang Chuchen was a Jindan Zhenren? They would only think that he was a scholar who had retired.

In fact, Wang Chuchen was indeed a scholar who retired to seclusion, but he was lucky enough to obtain the magic of the immortals and became an immortal.

Wang Chuchen entered the immortal gate at the age of forty, and has been practicing for only more than 30 years. His cultivation aptitude may not be worse than Shu Yunyun. Lingya Shangzhen had a good vision back then.

The method of meditation that Wang Chuchen practiced is not like the inner alchemy, which requires the meridians to be connected when the muscles and bones are not fully developed in childhood, but if there is a sincere wish, the cultivation can be rapidly improved, but in this way, the cultivation of the physical body is insufficient, and it cannot be compensated by practicing strength at the same time.

The so-called division of the three paths of Qi Dao, Strength Dao, and Dharma Dao is just another division within the inner alchemy. The other major schools are not so perfect, and most of them specialize in one or two paths. For example, this method of meditation is dedicated to the spirit and soul, that is, the Dharma Dao.

This characteristic of the meditation method has made many of the predecessors of this path come from the mortal world and are good at the skills of all kinds of crafts. Many elders who have just heard of the immortal way in their 80s suddenly realized and directly obtained the great elixir, leaving many legends in the world. In fact, most of the content in the book that Wu Yi first got was about this aspect.

Wang Chuchen played the flute, and Wu Yi did not disturb him, but stood aside and waited quietly for it to end.

After running all the way back, Wu Yi relied on the rhythm of the great way of tranquility to calm down his agitated heart soon, and when he calmed down and listened carefully to Wang Chuchen's flute music, Wu Yi heard something different.

Literati often say that poetry is used to express their aspirations, but there is nothing that cannot be expressed. Wang Chuchen's flute music, Wu Yi heard the will of riding the wind and breaking the waves sometimes, which has a lot to do with Wang Chuchen's breakthrough of the golden elixir not long ago, and it is inevitable that his heart is surging.

As for some other details, Wu Yi is not proficient in this way after all, so he can't hear them, but the main melody is passionate.

After a continuous upward musical note fell, Wang Chuchen put down the flute in his mouth. The flute music was over, and Wu Yi had already forgotten how long he had listened to it here, but his numb knees reminded him that it should be quite a while. He looked out of the cave, and it was already pitch black outside.

"Why did you come back early?" Wang Chuchen asked.

Wu Yi then told the cause and effect of his killing Yuan Qingxi, and also said that Yuan Qingxi's father was a Jindan cultivator. I thought Wang Chuchen would blame him for hearing him so reckless, but he just nodded lightly, as if he didn't care about it at all.

Was it because he didn't care about the disputes of the younger generation, or..., Wu Yi's eyes flickered a little.

"Then how did you come back?" Wang Chuchen continued to ask. He naturally knew that if there was no flying boat, how could Wu Yi come back so quickly with his foot strength? Now that Wu Yi came back, it meant that he must have taken a flying boat driven by a Jindan cultivator.

Wu Yi had been a disciple for half a year, so where did he find the time to make friends with Jindan Zhenren? Why did Jindan Zhenren want to take Wu Yi for nothing? Wang Chuchen was worried that he had other purposes.

Wu Yi then told Wang Chuchen about Fang Que's incident. Wang Chuchen looked normal. Wu Yi then described the appearance of the flying boat. Wang Chuchen interrupted Wu Yi and waved his hand to transform a flying boat in the air, saying: "But this one?"

Wu Yi looked carefully and said in panic: "It is this one, but what's wrong with it?"

Wang Chuchen waved his hand and said: "It's just an old friend, but he didn't see you?"

Wu Yi hummed. This was also something he couldn't figure out. Among Jindan Zhenren, except for those who only care about the great way and don't do worldly things, is it just a whim to show favor to the lower without asking for anything in return? Wu Yi didn't believe it. Now it seems that he has a little connection with Wang Chuchen, but Wu Yi, who is sensible, doesn't want to investigate it in detail. He hummed and shut up.

"What's the matter with your strength cultivation?" The question that Wu Yi was most entangled with came, but fortunately Wu Yi had already prepared it.

Before, Wu Yi's strength and Qi Dao were both Qi training, and they were not particularly conspicuous. Now that his strength is stronger than Qi Dao, Wang Chuchen pretended not to see it, which means that he didn't care much about Wu Yi.

"Master, do you know what's the matter with the mountain gate in the inner gate?" Wu Yi started very cleverly.

"What's the matter?" Wang Chuchen asked in confusion.

Wu Yi stared at Wang Chuchen boldly for a while, confirming that he was really not lying, and then he told him about his encounter with Bai Ze, especially focusing on the books that Bai Ze gave him in the Sutra Pavilion, and reciting a few sentences from the scriptures.

Hearing about such an adventure, Wang Chuchen was also very surprised. Even when he had been accompanying Lingya Shangzhen when he entered the Tao in his early years, he had never heard that the inner gate of the mountain gate had its own spirituality.

Wang Chuchen did not doubt Wu Yi's words. This could not be false. Moreover, Wu Yi recited a few sentences of the scriptures he had memorized, which showed that this was true.

Wu Yi met a senior master, so the sudden breakthrough in his strength cultivation was explained. Since it involved a senior, Wang Chuchen naturally would not continue to ask, but just said: "Practice well."

The undercurrent under the surface of Wu Yi's calm heart finally calmed down after Wang Chuchen said this. The key to the problem was not Bai Ze, but how to explain where Wu Yi got the strength method from. The book that Bai Ze selected for Wu Yi was just to help Wu Yi enter the foundation building one step earlier.

Wu Yi cleverly led the topic to Bai Ze. Wang Chuchen naturally subconsciously thought that Bai Ze's later contribution was greater, but Wu Yi's initial practice of nine movements and the later obtained Burning Emperor Method were not ordinary from the foundation, laying the foundation for Wu Yi's breakthrough.

Just asking a few juniors, but actually involving a senior like Bai Ze, Wang Chuchen was also very moved. He gave up the mood to continue the conversation and let Wu Yi leave.

When Wu Yi left Wang Chuchen's cave, a ray of dawn had already appeared in the eastern sky.
