Small door small faction [Cultivation]

He Xiuyuan noticed that Xie Dong's face turned pale again in an instant, and asked in surprise, "Junior Brother, what's wrong?"

Xie Dong laughed dryly, not knowing what to say.

Xie Dong felt a little guilty for actually forgetting the magic thoughts for so long and only now remembering this terrible thing.At this moment, he can only comfort himself, that is a part of the ancient demon lord, I don't know how many years he has lived, the old monster among the old monsters, shouldn't really starve to death... he should still be strong and alive, right?

Thinking about these things, Master Xie finally came to the entrance of the cave.

He walked in eagerly, but as soon as he stepped into his heart, there was a knock in his heart, and soon he noticed an obvious strangeness.What about formation?What about the isolation formation inside and outside that Sect Master Ling arranged here in order to trap the evil thoughts?

In the past, every time he came in, Xie Dong could really feel the existence of the formation, after all, he was the formation master.But now it is wrong.Xie Dong stood there in a daze for a moment, then walked left and right, convinced that he couldn't communicate with that formation at all.Then He Xiuyuan also walked in, and the formation that was supposed to stop the others remained silent.Obviously, that formation no longer exists.

That was the formation laid down by Daoist Yuan Ying.

Is it because of too long time, it disappeared naturally, or was it canceled due to some accident?Xie Dong didn't know.

He went into the cave and looked at the remains left by the eye of Lingquan with a very sad expression.The spring had dried up to the point that nothing was left, not only was there no more spiritual energy to escape, even the water in the pool had dried up, and there was only a sunken mud pit in place.As for the magic thought that lived in it back then?To be honest, if he was still inside now, then Xie Dong would have to shout a miracle.

Miracles didn't happen.Xie Dong squatted on the edge of the mud pit for a while, but the sound of the magic thought never sounded in his mind.

Sure enough, Mo Nian was no longer here, and he didn't know if he ran away or really starved to death.

No matter how long I waited, no matter how I tried to find it, it was gone.

Finally Xie Dong sighed, got up and found a dry place to sit down, looking up at the top of the cave.He suddenly realized that such a long time has really passed, too many things have been changed, and everything he was used to in the past may no longer exist.Even when he first returned to the sect, this feeling was not so profound.But at this moment, it suddenly became thicker and weighed heavily on Xie Dong's heart.

He Xiuyuan sat down next to Xie Dong, accompanied him silently, and comforted his melancholy.

"I brought you here this time because I wanted to introduce you to a guy." Xie Dong said, "It's not a good guy, let alone something that can let others know that it's here. You were the first one brought here by me." I also thought a lot before making this decision. But that guy is gone.”

He Xiuyuan raised his eyes and looked at him, finally knowing where his melancholy came from.

"It's too fast." Xie Dong sighed very much, feeling as if his time had been stolen, and his heart was bleeding. "How come more than ten years have passed? Everything you are used to has changed."

"I'll get used to it." He Xiuyuan said.

Xie Dong was taken aback.

"There is no time in the mountains." He Xiuyuan said, "More than ten years, it is not worth paying too much attention to."

Only now did Xie Dong understand, and he couldn't help but smile with the corners of his mouth raised.

Yes, although they lost more than a dozen years in the blink of an eye, it usually takes decades for practitioners to come out after being closed. The changes in the world are simply too normal. This is the first time Xie Dong has had a similar experience That's all.For them, this change itself is something that they will get used to sooner or later.

After the two returned from the back mountain, Xie Dong went to find Chang Yongyi again to see how this kid was doing, and by the way, asked him if he had any thoughts.

Chang Yongyi had already taken the pills given by the Yin Yang Sect Golden Pill, and his complexion looked much better than before, but his body was still weak, and he lay on the table and didn't even want to get up.Seeing Xie Dong coming in, Chang Yongyi just raised his head and said hello.

"Are you feeling better?" Xie Dong asked standing at the door.He didn't want to be poked in the nose by the point of the sword once he went in.

Chang Yongyi's mood was indeed much better, and he was even a little elated.

The aggrieved and angry before had dissipated after this moment of rest, and Xie Dong's return in his heart was almost equal to the end of suffering, really happy.Then he told Xie Dong what happened in these years, emphasizing how he worked so hard for the sect, and how he wisely delayed the most important two months with his life as a bet. Before Xie Dong came back, he endured an irreparable loss and was elated.

Seeing that he was still in the mood to ask for credit, Xie Dong couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, "Seeing that you are so energetic, I feel relieved."

"Originally," Chang Yongyi almost wanted to raise his invisible tail to the sky, "I'm so smart, how big of a problem can I have? Even if there is something, you will take care of it anyway, brother."

Xie Dong shook his head, not knowing what to say, "You're still weak now, don't move around if you have nothing to do, and eat more to nourish yourself."

Chang Yongyi nodded repeatedly.A lock of hair fell to his ear with his movement, it was white.Chang Yongyi reached out to pick up this strand of white hair again, put it in front of him and gently rolled it away, but there were some black and gray hairs inside.The kid fell silent suddenly, looking at his hair, he seemed lost in thought.

Seeing him like this, Xie Dong was afraid that he still didn't think about it, so he persuaded him, "The matter of hair is a trivial matter, the big deal is to dye it."

"I really want to dye it." Chang Yongyi said, "It's really ugly to mix black and white."

"Dye it black..."

Chang Yongyi shook his head, "I want to dye it pure white."

What?For a while, Xie Dong couldn't grasp the boy's thoughts.

"A head of pure white long hair," Chang Yongyi raised his eyes, asked Xie Dong solemnly, and even slightly expectantly, "Will it look very cool?"

Xie Dong: ...

Xie Dong suddenly didn't want to say anything anymore, and even felt that he was just looking for trouble for worrying about this kid before.He was suddenly very tired, waved his hand and said goodbye to Chang Yongyi, and continued to worry about the antidote.

Chang Yongyi, the person involved, seemed to be a normal person, still thinking about what kind of style would match his white hair.

But when he got to the door, the tired Xie Dong still turned his head and asked him if he had seen anyone go to the back mountain these years.

"Houshan?" Chang Yongyi said that he didn't pay much attention, "I went to visit the Lingquan a few times before it was deserted, but I didn't enter the cave. As for the deserted, who cares about the back mountain."

Xie Dongxin said the same.

From this point of view, if the magic thought really left, it would have been done secretly, without the disciples of Yuyu Sect finding out.It is estimated that other clues will be even more difficult to find, so Xie Dong had no choice but to give up.

When he was completely out of Chang Yongyi's room, Xie Dong walked outside, then looked inside through the window, and found that Chang Yongyi was still gently rubbing his hair with his fingertips.Chang Yongyi's expression at this time was different from just now, those joyful and triumphant eyebrows were only hanging on the corners of his slightly raised mouth, but there were some other emotions in his eyes, showing a little heaviness.

After a while, the boy sighed and looked up to the window. Xie Dong had already withdrawn his gaze and walked out.

Chang Yongyi has really grown up.Thinking about it carefully, it is clear that it is only a few days for Xie Dong, but the younger junior brother is already mentally old enough to be his uncle... The feeling of the child's sudden growth is too violent, and Xie Dong feels very melancholy.

Fortunately, as long as they keep going, the present years are just a tiny part of the road of slowly comprehending themselves.He will always get used to everything, and also the change itself.

Thinking about the previous conversation with He Xiuyuan, the slight melancholy in Xie Dong's heart gradually dissipated.

But the problems before us are still insurmountable.Xie Dong originally wanted to ask Man Nian about the poison Chang Yongyi was poisoned by, but now he doesn't even know if Man Nian is dead or alive, and there is no clue to find Man Nian.

The easiest way was broken, so I had to find another way.

Sitting in his study, Xie Dong calculated the contacts he could use, and thought about who could help him.He knows a lot of powerful and powerful people, including several Daoist Yuan Ying.The only question is, how should he ask these people to take action.

The Lingquan eye has been abandoned, and the sect's power is not enough to enter the eyes of Daoist Yuan Ying. Is he going to hand over the spiritual vein he just found and the information about that secret realm?it's out of the question.In Xie Dong's eyes, Lingmai has become the foundation of Yuyumen's redevelopment, so he can only find something else.

After a moment of thinking and making a decision, Xie Dong took out something from his storage bag.A thing that is enough to move Daoist Yuanying's mind, and Yuyumen can afford to lose.

Then Xie Dong spent some time to study this thing further.

The next day, Xie Dong explained the affairs of the sect and left the sect together with He Xiuyuan.When they left this time, many disciples followed behind, their gazes were full of worry, and they wished they could stay behind.Xie Dong had to say again and again that he didn't go far away this time, he just visited other sects, and he would return when he went, and he would return when he really went.

As for the destination of this trip, Xie Dong thought about it all night, and finally decided to go to the nearest Penglai pie first.One is that the Penglai faction has the most contact with him, and the other is that he still can't ignore the matter of magic thoughts. He has to ask Sect Master Ling about the sudden failure of the formation.

Not long after arriving at the gate of the Penglai School, the two of them were invited in.All the way to the depths of the Penglai School, it was actually met by Ling Zongzhu in person, which can be regarded as special attention.

"Master Xie, you have been traveling for many years, and you have visited my Penglai faction as soon as you came back. I don't know why?"

"I have encountered a difficult situation." Xie Dong didn't bother to go around, and replied directly, "Maybe we need the help of capable people from your sect."

"Oh?" Ling Zongzhu gave him a meaningful look, "If I remember correctly, it has been about 20 years since the last transaction between you and me."

This is to remind Xie Dong that 30 years have not yet come.

"Sect Master Ling," Xie Dong's mood suddenly became very complicated, "You should remember this agreement very clearly."

He had already learned from the disciples of Yuyumen that when Zheng Yigang bullied him, the disciples of Yuyumen asked the Penglai Sect for help.As a result, Sect Master Ling not only refused, but also forced Ling Xi, who was the only one who could make a move on his own, to retreat early, cutting off the possibility of Yuyumen getting any help from the Penglai faction.After all, according to the agreement, if the Penglai faction helps... then the Yuyumen really don't have to worry about whether they will become affiliated with the Yinyangmen, because they will directly become affiliated with the Penglai faction.Xie Dong was not around at the time, so no one could make such a big decision.

Thinking that the other party has been watching the disaster of Yuyumen so calmly, Xie Dong will inevitably feel a little slanderous, but he also knows that the other party is completely right, after all, an agreement is an agreement.From the beginning to the end, the Penglai faction has no obligation to help Yuyumen for no reason.

"Don't worry, I haven't forgotten the promise back then." Xie Dong placed the things he picked out yesterday on the stone table, "I came here this time, and it may not be accurate to say that I need help. To be precise, I hope to reach a deal with you."

That's a few sheets of paper.

Sect Master Ling took out the few pieces of paper, and just glanced at them twice, the slight curiosity in his eyes changed, and became much more cautious.

"My little junior brother was poisoned in this catastrophe in Yuyumen, and he is still affected by the poison until now. The person who poisoned him can't come up with an antidote that can completely eradicate the poison." Xie Dong carefully paid attention to the expression of the other party, He said slowly, "I don't know if this thing is enough to ask capable people from your sect to help us solve this problem?"

Sect Master Ling didn't reply for a while, and carefully read these papers carefully, the more he read, the more cautious he became.

This look was exactly as Xie Dong expected, and he was relieved.He knew that the weight of this thing was absolutely enough—it couldn't be enough, this was part of the exercises he deciphered from the jade slips of the great power of crossing the catastrophe.

Yes, it's only part of it. The current situation doesn't require Xie Dong to take out the entire exercise.This part records some special small spells, as well as special methods for absorbing and moving aura.Taking it out so alone may be a bit difficult to learn, but the value is still huge.

More importantly, Xie Dong did not give these contents to the Penglai faction, but shared them with the Penglai faction.After the deal is concluded, Yuyumen disciples can still study, but they no longer have the monopoly.This loss is small for Yuyumen, but this temptation is irresistible for Penglai faction.

After a long while, Sect Master Ling finally looked away from the paper, "This is all your handwriting."

"So what?" Xie Dong pretended to be surprised and asked him, "Are there any mistakes or omissions?"

Sect Master Ling was silent for a moment, then shook his head.

Xie Dong smiled, "Then your faction agrees to this deal?"

Sect Master Ling remained silent for a long time, and suddenly got up with these papers, "I want to show it to other people first."

Xie Dong didn't expect this, and quickly stood up, frowning slightly, "Sect Master Ling?"

If there is anything unfavorable to Yuyumen in this transaction, it is because the strength difference between the two parties is too great.If the other party wants to take it by force, Xie Dong is powerless to fight back.That's why Xie Dong chose the Penglai faction first, he felt that Ling Zongzhu's character was still trustworthy.

Sect Master Ling would certainly not do such lowly things.It's just that the thing in his hand surprised him, and he didn't think it through all of a sudden. After he came back to his senses, he realized that his actions were too abrupt, "Sorry, I was abrupt...but this is a big matter, I have to let the other Let people take a look. If Head Xie is worried, you can come with me."

Xie Dong slowly sat back down again, "How could you worry about the Penglai faction? I was just too nervous all of a sudden, Sect Master Ling doesn't need to worry about it."

Sect Master Ling nodded to him, and then left for a moment.

After drinking two sips of tea, Sect Master Ling came back with a person behind him.

Xie Dong looked up, and when he saw clearly who was behind Sect Master Ling, he was frightened and almost spit out the tea from his mouth.

It was a very slender boy with delicate skin, white as snow, and the fluctuations in his cultivation were mediocre and not worth mentioning, just like the most ordinary foundation-building junior.

But Xie Dong happened to have met this young man, just one night, when he was able to overcome the tribulation, and he had a very deep memory.Where is the most common foundation-building junior here?This is clearly a living old monster in the Yuanshen stage or the Mahayana stage!

Xie Dong's heart was filled with turbulent waves, but his face still managed to remain calm, he finally swallowed the tea in his mouth, and tried his best to look like he really didn't recognize the identity of the boy.

It's a pity that it was too late and looked too lame.

The young man noticed Xie Dong's strangeness, looked up at him with a smile, "Master Xie, what's wrong?"

"I just think this fellow Taoist has a very kind face, which reminds me of the junior brother who was killed by poison." Xie Dong looked at the white hair on the boy's head, and said with complicated emotions, "He wants to dye his hair pure white, but why not?" Tell me white hair is cool."

The young man fell silent upon hearing this.

Xie Dong felt in his heart that he would suffer.He was too nervous just now, and the topic was too messy, maybe he has offended the other party.

After a while, the boy asked him, "Isn't it cool?"

Xie Dong: ...
