Lu Zhizhi took out the copper coins and simply made a divination for himself.

It's a hexagram.

'Jian is beneficial to the southwest, but detrimental to the northeast. Benefit to meet the adults, chastity and auspiciousness. '

The hexagram symbolizes the difficult journey.

You should not go to the northeast, but to the southwest, and you will meet noble people, and you will have good luck.

Why is this hexagram completely opposite to the direction of the compass?

Taoists like to follow their instincts, and so does Lu Zhizhi.

Moreover, the divination she gave herself was often inaccurate.

Then listen to the compass and go southwest.

The compass is a magical instrument, and it is the most accurate in the mountains where one cannot tell the direction.

There are many mosquitoes in the mountains, but she sprinkled bamboo leaf and green snake skin powder on her body, so the insects only dared to fly around her, but did not dare to come close.

After walking for about half an hour, she felt a little exhausted.

Lu Zhizhi learned some simple self-defense techniques from his master since he was a child, and he also went up mountains with his master.

Although he didn't exercise deliberately, his physical strength was not that bad.

Not only do I feel tired, but some of the spiritual energy in my body has also been lost.

She knew that the place she wanted to go was not far from her.

Lu Zhizhi remained calm and continued to move forward. After walking for another ten minutes, the scenery in front of him seemed familiar.

She raised her eyebrows slightly.

It seems this is it.

Take out the prepared chicken blood, mix it with cinnabar, and start drawing the talisman.

After drawing the eight void-breaking talismans, Lu Zhizhi held the talisman in his hand and kneaded the secret with the other hand.

The spiritual energy slowly moved the talisman, and the talisman glowed faintly and slowly burned.

"The Five Elements urge heaven and earth, and the Eight Diagrams vibrate in all directions."

"break!"

She growled lowly, full of energy.

A strong wind blew in the airless mountain forest.

She raised her hand to dip in the cinnabar and put a red mark between her eyebrows.

When he opened his eyes again, the scenery in front of him was different from before.

Lu Zhizhi looked at the swaying shrubs, as if the direction of the branches had been changed by the wind.

She walked carefully in the direction of the branches with Bagua steps.

Ninety-nine and eighty-one steps later, she walked out of this familiar area.

Take out the compass and check the direction again.

The compass still pointed southwest.

The death position she calculated just now has indeed become an auspicious position as shown in the hexagram.

Lu Zhizhi held the compass and continued walking forward.

The Xuanjing Sect carefully laid out three formations in this mountain forest.

The first one is the formation at the foot of the mountain.

If a monk wants to find out, he will definitely take out a compass to calculate the direction.

The Xuanjing Sect used formations to change the direction of the earth's energy.

Even if the compass points out the auspicious position, ordinary monks think it is the dead position.

The death position is very bad, and ordinary monks will give up.

The second path is the 'Tired Heart Formation' just now.

Even if someone wants to go up the mountain, whether they are Taoists or ordinary people, they will enter the "Tired Heart Formation" from the moment they enter the mountain.

This formation consumes one's vitality. After walking for twenty minutes, one will be out of breath.

Those with poor physical fitness may suffer from shock, coma, and lack of physical strength.

Then some of the remaining people will continue walking without giving up and will step into the third formation.

The maze of Bagua is also the so-called ghost hitting the wall.

Through the formation, people can experience hallucinations and change the direction of the branches and leaves of the shrubs.

Everyone knows that trees grow toward the light, so they subconsciously move in the direction of their branches.

But if the direction of the branches changes, then the person is likely to go in a big circle, spinning in circles.

Lu Zhizhi followed his master's Bagua steps, carefully avoiding all places that might be the center of the formation, and walked with difficulty to the top of the mountain.

Inside Xuanjing Sect.

Taoist Master Qiu Fang was punching his fists when his gestures suddenly stopped.

He raised his hand and counted a few seconds, then hurriedly walked towards the inner hall.

He knocked on the door, and after a moment, a gentle female voice came from the hall.

"come in."

Qiu Fang lowered his head and bowed in salute.

"Master, the girl from the Lu family is here!"

The female voice paused and spoke.

"Did you say Xingzhi?"

"Exactly."

Qiu Fang didn't dare to look up. The leader didn't let him get up, so he didn't even dare to get up.

The woman at the top let out a long sigh of relief, her voice cold and coquettish.

"Did you find him so quickly?"

"The little girl is much stronger than before."

Qiu Fang hesitated to speak.

"Master, do you want to see her?"

The woman thought for a moment and said coldly.

"It's not yet time, it's easy to get into trouble if we see you."

"Go and release that old man, and then extinguish the life lamp of that boy from the Gu family. Naturally, she won't stand idly by."

Qiu Fang responded.

"Yes."

After exiting the inner hall door, Qiu Fang wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Every time he entered the master's main hall, he couldn't help but feel scared, and he didn't even dare to look up.

The leader is not extremely ugly, but his face is...

Qiu Fang clenched his hands tightly and didn't dare to think about it anymore, and hurriedly went to the guest house in the neighboring courtyard.

An old man is kneeling in front of the portrait of Sanqing Zhen in the guest house.

The old man had gray hair and had been kneeling there all day.

Qiu Fang flicked the fly whisk.

"Mr. Gu, the leader is not the destined person of Young Master Gu."

"The sect's rules are that if we don't help someone who is not destined to help, we will not be able to form a relationship. Please leave now."

Mr. Gu kneeling on the futon is Gu Yanzhou's grandfather.

Mr. Gu's eyes were cloudy, and he was exhausted from sitting on his knees for a day.

He managed to stand up using a cane.

"Is there really nothing we can do?"

Qiu Fang shook his head.

"Everything is destiny."

Mr. Gu resignedly closed his eyes.

"God is really going to destroy my Gu family!"

Qiu Fang read the number.

"Mr. Gu, the Gu family has been in glory for a hundred years, so it is normal for it to decline."

"As the saying goes, a gentleman's glory will fade at thirty and be cut off at five. Don't force anything."

Mr. Gu bowed to Qiu Fang, and Qiu Fang returned the bow and sent him out of the mountain gate.

Lu Zhizhi finally climbed to the top of the mountain.

After walking through this mountain col, a flat path suddenly appeared in front of us.

The path became wider and wider as we walked, and the stone steps on the opposite hillside were faintly visible.

She couldn't help but quicken her pace.

Unexpectedly, after walking around this corner, I found a person lying on the roadside.

The old man has silver hair and is dressed very well. Does he look familiar?

She walked to the old man's side, straightened his body, and was shocked.

"Mr. Gu!"

Lu Zhizhi laid Mr. Gu down on the ground, and then unbuttoned the shirt around his neck so that he could breathe smoothly.

After calling a few times, Mr. Gu didn't respond.

Lu Zhizhi took out a silver needle and pricked his right hand's mouth and philtrum. After draining out some reddish-brown blood, Mr. Gu finally woke up.

"Deer...Miss Deer?"

Lu Zhizhi's tense nerves finally relaxed.

He lifted Mr. Gu up and leaned on the big tree on the side of the road.

"Mr. Gu, why are you here?"

After saying this, Lu Zhizhi regretted it.

This is the Xuanjing Sect. Mr. Gu must have gone up the mountain to find a way to cure Gu Yanzhou's body.

Mr. Gu's face was gray and gloomy, his hall was darkened, and the air of death was faintly visible.

"Miss Lu, Yanzhou is very ill."

"The year he was born, I visited the Xuanjing Sect, and the Taoist here lit a life-extending lamp for Yanzhou."

"I came here this time to see if I can get them to help again."

Lu Zhizhi's eyebrows jumped.

"Can the Xuanjing Sect light the life-extending lamp?"
