There is a small temple in Diaomen Pass, which belongs to the Taoist temple under the jurisdiction of Ya'an Charity House. The monks who come to fight usually stay in the temple. Cheng Zhicheng accompanied Zhao Ran straight into the inner room, and saw an old monk lying on the bed, with a sallow complexion, eyes closed, and he was in a coma.
"This is Master Xing of Nanxi Pavilion in Xuzhou, and he is also the leading mage of our Diaomen Pass."
Zhao Ran came closer and took a closer look, and then stretched out his fingers to check the pulse. He felt that the rhythm was very strange. It was said to be regular, but it was very different from ordinary people. It was said to be irregular, but it maintained a unique rhythm.
"What's going on?" Zhao Ran asked.
Cheng Zhicheng said: "Last month, a small group of sergeants went out to patrol Jinchuan. As usual, they had to wait for three days, but they didn't come back after five days. One of them was followed by a monk with a yellow crown. Logically speaking, it was an accident. There should also be a flying talisman in return."
"Have you met a high-level Buddhist monk?"
"I don't know. Just the day before you came to Diaomen last time, Master Xing and Master Zhou led people to search. Because I had just arrived at Diaomen and was not familiar with the situation, I stayed in the pass to take charge."
Zhao Ran counted the days: "In other words, sixteen days ago?"
Cheng Zhicheng nodded: "They have been searching in the mountains around Jinchuan for more than ten days, but there has been no news. They planned to come back, but the night before yesterday they received a flying talisman from Master Xing, saying that they had found a clue, and they wanted to follow it and take a look. look¡¡"
"how?"
"At noon yesterday, Master Xing came back alone. He has been in coma as soon as he entered Guancheng. After discussing with the high commander, I put Diaomen Pass and Zishi Pass on alert. I have reported this matter to Yuhuang Pavilion. , someone from Jade Emperor Pavilion may arrive tomorrow."
Zhao Ran asked again: "Have you ever used the Taoist Talisman to check it?"
The Taoist Talisman is a Taoist talisman used to detect changes in the energy of heaven and earth. It has a wide range of uses. One of the most important uses is to check the source of mana that caused the injury to the monk's wound.
Cheng Zhicheng said: "It was used yesterday. The strange thing is that I can't see it. Junior Brother Zhao, how about you take a look at it again?"
Zhao Ran nodded, and Cheng Zhicheng took out a Taoist Talisman and pinched it with his fingers. The Taoist Talisman spread out on Master Xing, and a qi machine swept the entire room like a wave.
"Everything was normal, but there was nothing unusual about Master Xing. It felt quite strange.
Zhao Ran asked: "Where are the others? Where are Master Zhou and the others? Didn't any of them come back?"
Cheng Zhicheng shook his head: "There is no news. I sent the flying talisman and saw no reply."
"Who is coming from Jade Emperor Pavilion?"
"I didn't say that. I just said that we have already set off and we will arrive tomorrow or at most the day after tomorrow."
It is no longer possible for Zhao Ran to leave now. As a Taoist walker, he also has a very important responsibility, which is to provide assistance at any time. Now that there is an abnormality in Diaomen Pass, since he is here, he must not leave at will, at least not at will. We have to wait until someone comes from Jade Emperor Pavilion before making a decision.
He was the first Taoist monk to arrive at Diaomen Pass. In the evening, three Taoist monks from Lizhou, nearby Qiongzhou, and Jiading Prefecture also arrived one after another. Everyone had finished their greetings, discussed the matter with each other, and waited. The monk in charge of affairs here from Jade Emperor Pavilion arrived.
Zhao Ran reported this matter to his teacher Jiang Tenghe Feifu, and the teacher's reply was: "Follow your orders, and if there is any danger, please contact us in time."
He thought of the Butcher and Rich Shen again, and quickly flew the talisman as a warning. The two men quickly replied: "Don't worry, Master Cheng has informed the matter. We are hunting in the Gongga Mountains and are not in Jinchuan."
Gongga Mountain is in the southwest of Jinchuan, about two hundred miles away from here. It is indeed not within the scope of Jinchuan. Zhao Ran felt relieved a little.
What Zhao Ran didn¡¯t expect was that the so-called visitor from Jade Emperor Pavilion turned out to be Dongfang Li.
Dongfang Li has been in seclusion for two years, breaking through two realms in a row, and going straight from a mage to a refiner. Such a feat has already spread throughout the world. Seeing that he came to preside over the affairs here, all the Taoist monks were immediately relieved.
Zhao Ran looked at the opportunity and asked Dongfang Li alone: ??"Why is Senior Brother Li here?"
Dongfang Li smiled and replied: "If I don't come, who will?"
"You are the leader of the West Hall. If something happens to you, what will happen to the West Hall? Senior Brother Li should not be easily involved in danger. The most suitable place for you is to strategize in the West Hall."
"I can't go out after becoming the master of the West Hall? If I really do that, how can I strategize? Just rely on documents and news sent from various places? After a long time, I will either strategize or just talk on paper. Let's go and have a look. Lao Xing."
A group of monks gathered around ArchmasterThe archmage drank it. Master Xing's face suddenly turned into colorful lights.
Dongfang Li said: "It is indeed a Buddhist technique. Lao Xing has met a Buddhist master. From the looks of it, he is at least at the Arhat level or above."
Now that the source of the problem has been found and it has been confirmed that it was a Buddhist monk who did it, everyone is relieved. The most fearful thing about doing things is not knowing the situation. When you don't know the reason, you will inevitably have unknown fear. Now that the target is clear, even if it is found that it is a Buddhist master who has at least reached the Arhat level, everyone feels much more at ease.
In the evening, Zhao Ran asked: "Senior Brother Li, last time you said that Brother Jing would be in seclusion. It's been three months now. What's going on?"
Dongfang Li said: "I got out of seclusion last month and entered the realm of the great mage. It went very well."
Zhao Ran was stunned and said angrily: "Senior Brother Jing, he didn't even tell me when he broke through. It's in vain that I've been worrying about him."
Dongfang Li said: "After he came out of seclusion, he didn't want to make public, so he went down to Qingcheng Mountain. He didn't know where he was at this time."
Zhao Ran said: "Isn't this a good thing? Shouldn't there be a grand banquet or something?"
Dongfang Li shook his head and said, "It's all up to me. He was shocked by the fact that I broke through two realms in a row. When he was in retreat, he seemed to have made preparations for a long retreat. As a result, he came out in two months. I saw that he was a little depressed after coming out of isolation and seemed to be in a bad mood."
Zhao Ran didn¡¯t expect that Dongfang Jing would be willful. He was so dissatisfied that he could break through seclusion so smoothly. He actually ran away from the mountain because he couldn¡¯t break through two realms in a row? It's really embarrassing.
After finishing the conversation, Dongfangli asked: "When will dinner come?"
Zhao Ran quickly went to the kitchen to urge him, came over with a big food box, and sat down with Dongfang Li to eat together. While eating, he asked: "Senior Brother Li is actually hungry? I heard that once you reach the level of a master, you can start fasting. If you don't eat for three days, you won't be hungry. Anyway, since I became a master, my teacher has I haven¡¯t had dinner with our fellow disciples.¡±
Dongfang Li said: "Indeed, after the pill is broken and a baby is born, the Yuanying can breathe out the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on its own, and it can survive without food for three to five days. Eating is just a matter of habit. Food can cultivate temperament, and this fun is cut off. You always feel uncomfortable, so eat when you want to eat, and don't eat when you don't want to eat. Don't force your choice, otherwise it will hinder your practice."
"That's it. It's just that the food at Diaomenguan is just average. I'll cook a good meal for Senior Brother Li another day. Senior Brother Li, just make do with it."
"I don't care. This meal is for you to eat. Eat more and be full."
"Um?"
"Since you are here, you save me the time of sending out talismans. Come out with me after dinner. You will feel more energetic after eating."
