Penglai delusion

Relying on his previous experience of climbing the cliff with bare hands, Xi Mo stepped on the branches and swung all the way up.The higher you go, the better you feel, so you let go of your courage, focus on luck on the soles of your feet, and completely let go of your hands while climbing.After jumping upwards obliquely so lightly, and then using the rock wall as a point of strength, with a pause, they flew towards the taller pine branches.

Although his ascension route is crooked, he still needs external objects to assist him from time to time, but his palms are clasped behind his back, and he never let go.When he was just a few feet away from the kitchen, he was already doing well, as if he was in the water.

I don't want to raise my eyebrows with a smile so that I bumped into Jiang Tan with a glance.

Xi Mo was stunned, and suddenly felt short of breath, and grabbed a branch, at least he didn't fall.Hanging from the tree, he laughed and said, "Master, my sword is gone."

Jiang Tan was washing rice with a crouching bowl in his arms, and he looked away without stopping, "Aren't you going to the main entrance without the sword?"

"Someone is chasing me."

"Ah."

"It's true! Disciple is ashamed. Gengu was accidentally discovered by the head of the sect. He must arrest me and go to the main peak to become a disciple. I escaped all the way and almost never came back."

Jiang Tan didn't make a sound, just dipped his fingers in the water and drew circles silently.

Xi Mo simply clung to the branches and swung on the swing, "Master, master, stop washing the rice. I'll make you whatever you want to eat."

"...No, I will do it today."

Xi Mo moaned, "Master, I don't want to eat lettuce anymore. You wash the rice and put it aside, I'll cook."

Jiang Tan paused, feeling that the child was getting more and more involved.

But he still put the pottery bowl on the table, and was taking off the veil to wipe his hands, when Xi Moji swam in like a fish and stuck to his body, "Master, you must have lost weight because you didn't eat well. "

"...Eat it." Jiang Tan put the handkerchief back on the wall, "It tastes good."

Xi Mo's heart sweetened, he pressed his forehead against the man's back, buried his cheek in his hair, and muttered softly, "What did you eat?"

"I ate them all."

Xi Mo smiled, "What about the white camellia?"

"I ate it too."

Xi Mo was speechless for a while, and felt hesitant to laugh or cry, and after a while he said, "Master, camellias are not for eating."

"It's okay." Jiang Tan pulled the child off with one hand, not paying attention.

As soon as she turned around, she was hugged again.

This little boy's head was now pulled up to the tip of his chin, and the fluffy head rubbed back and forth, making the tip of his nose itchy, so he turned his face up and said "Xi Mo".

"Master, touch me." The child was still sticky, "Long time no see, I miss you."

Jiang Tan paused, "It hasn't arrived in three days, but it's been a long time."

"Yeah." Xi Mo turned his face up, with gloomy lake waves shining in his pupils, "It's like three autumns if we don't see each other every day."

Jiang Tan was speechless, he pressed his head and rubbed it.

Xi Mo felt comfortable, and stopped moving when he rubbed against the person. After a while, he snorted, "Master, if the head insists on accepting me as an apprentice, what will you do?"

"It depends on your wishes." Jiang Tan pondered for a moment, "If you follow the way of war, the leader is the best choice."

Before he finished speaking, he felt a tightness around his waist, and it hurt a little from being bound.

"No." Xi Mo said, "Master, you can't let me go. I only recognize you."

As he spoke, he raised his eyes to look at Jiang Tan, saw that his eyes were slightly dull, and there was no answer, and he turned his eyes away after a while, and his heart couldn't help but tense.

But Xi Mo didn't speak, and his hands became more and more forceful, as if he must draw out an answer.

"Let go." Jiang Tan came back to his senses, wondering why the child suddenly went crazy, "I didn't want you."

Xi Mo bit his lower lip pitifully, "Really? Isn't Master trying to scare me? If the master comes, will you tell him the same?"

"I said, it depends on your wishes. If you don't want to, he can't either."

"He has the law!" Xi Mo opened his eyes wide, "

Just now, he tried his best to force me to become his apprentice! "

Jiang Tan let out a "hmm", "I see."

Xi Mo followed with "Oh", "You know."

But he finally let go of his hand, and said in a resigned manner, "Master, someone is robbing me, you have to protect me."

"it is good."

With just this one word, Xi Mo laughed again, "Master, why are you so nice?"

"Yeah." Jiang Tan is used to this kind of praise. He saw that the child had only a burden on his back, and he couldn't help saying, "Is the sword really gone?"

"Does Master think I'm joking?" Xi Mo untied the burden, scooped up a ladle of water to wash his hands, and at the same time told the details of the past few days.

Jiang Tan sat on the side and listened to him. The matter was finished and the meal was ready.

Xi Mo put the white rice into a persimmon porridge, and brought the newly kneaded beef pie and a plate of yam stewed ginkgo to Jiang Tan.

"The ghost energy in your body is indeed ghost energy. But it is different from the ghost energy I saw this time." Jiang Tan said, "This ghost energy is similar to stellar energy, and it may be used to cultivate the way of ghosts."

Xi Mo had a spoonful of porridge stuck in his throat, and looked towards Jiang Tan with some trepidation. Seeing that the person was still stirring the porcelain bowl slowly, he couldn't help saying, "Master, I don't understand."

"There is the way of immortality, so naturally there is also the way of ghosts." Jiang Tan nodded, "The way of immortality is about the root and bone, suitable for the human body, there are reasons to follow, and there is a way to follow. Into evil spirits. Anyone who cultivates the ghost way is born, which will cause panic."

Xi Mo grasped the porcelain spoon tightly, "Master, does anyone know who is practicing the way of ghosts?"

Jiang Tan thought for a moment, "I haven't heard of it in this world. It is said that the ghost way damages Yangshou and deviates from the way of longevity. All the ghost cultivators recorded in the book are now dead." He watched the child hold his hand for blood, and couldn't help but make a sound. Remind, "Xi Mo, hand."

Xi Mo was stunned, pulled out the broken porcelain stuck in the flesh, and smiled shyly, "I still feel scared when I think of the scene of the ghost soldiers pressing down on the border."

He lowered his eyes to hide the ferocious expression, and looked at the blood stains on his palms, his eyes seemed to be gradually stained with scarlet.I just want to follow this gangrene-like ghost in my body, maybe I can really find that person, those people.

In a trance, the spiritual energy has been used to mend those wounds.

The wound still hurt, but it stopped bleeding.

Xi Moxu clasped his palms, and smiled at Jiang Tan in surprise, "Master, I can use spiritual energy to heal my wounds."

Jiang Tan glanced at his palm, "Spiritual energy is only used for temporary sutures, if the luck stops, it will return to its original state." He said, "There are indeed special techniques that can heal, but they are relatively rare. Generally, wounds still need medicine. deal with."

Xi Mo couldn't help but smile, "Remember, Master." Seeming to have an appetite again, he found a porcelain spoon again, talked and laughed with Jiang Tan and ate the meal.

When he swallowed the last ginkgo fruit, he heard Jiang Tan say, "You go and apply the medicine, I'll do it."

"No, how can I call Master?" Xi Mo put away the dishes first, grabbed the loofah and refused to let it go.

Jiang Tan didn't argue with him, and went up the stone ladder.

Xi Mo cleaned up, went to the bathroom to scrub, and then sat on the opposite side of the river pool and applied Shengjisan, "What is Master painting?"

"A map of the Dragon Tomb." Jiang Tan said, "There is an ancient dragon's horn under the deep abyss in the tomb. You can take it to make a sword. If you get rid of ghosts in the future, it may have a natural suppression effect."

Xi Mo was dumbfounded, "Master, have you been to Dragon Tomb?"

"Yeah." Jiang Tan paused, "You put this picture away, don't let others see it."

Xi Mo touched the tip of his nose, "Master, don't worry, even if someone sees you accidentally, I will never shake you out."

Seeing that Jiangtan was silent, he became very curious, "How does master know that dragon horns can defeat ghosts? Didn't it mean that in the battle of the East China Sea, the two worlds of humans and demons joined hands to suppress ghosts, and only the dragon clan was wiped out?"

Jiang Tan lowered his eyes and hooked the line, "At the beginning of the two worlds, the dragon's tendons were used as the rope to lock the ghost king in the Guixu. From this point of view, the dragon's horn should also have a certain effect on ghosts."

Xi Mo was taken aback, but he didn't think it was strange since he thought that this person always knew many unheard of strange things.

As he thought about it, his heart suddenly moved, he went to get the snakeskin bag from the bag, and poured out some stones, "Master, this is something I got unintentionally, do you know what it is?"

The pile of stones really looked like they were pulled out of the roadside pit, even Jiangtan Bowen was stunned, "I don't know."

Xi Mo just raised his jaw and smiled, "I heard that it is Tu Shanshi, but I suspect it is a lie, and I need to see Master to make a conclusion."

Jiang Tan put down his pen, pulled up his sleeve and took a stone, held it in his palm and looked at it carefully for a moment, then said, "It's just right."

"So Master, what is this?"

"Tushan Shixin." Jiang Tan said, "Although there are no evil spirits in the dragon tomb, you may encounter unknown threats when you take the dragon's horn this time."

He said, "If this stone is available, you should have no worries during this trip."

Xi Mo was taken aback, "Is this stone so powerful?"

Jiang Tan remained silent, and handed the broken piece to Xi Mo, "Put it away and give it to me."

Xi Mo was very regretful, "This package was originally intended for you, but I didn't want to end up taking advantage of myself." He said, "No, Master, I have to do something to compensate you, or this trip is not I ran away in vain."

He touched the tip of his nose, and tentatively asked softly, "Is there something you want on the main peak?"

"No." Jiang Tan picked up the pen and stared at the drawing intently.

"Where is the Dragon Tomb?" Xi Mo said, "I heard that there are many treasures in it, you can mark all the ones you want on the picture."

"No need." Jiang Tan washed the pine smoke, and then dipped it in the navy blue, "Although there are many rare treasures in the mound, it needs good fortune and opportunity, so we can't force it."

"Remember." Xi Mo sighed, resting his head on his arm, "How about I copy the book for you."

"No need."

"...Then how about I grow some bamboos? I'm self-sufficient, and I won't have to exchange copies with the old man."

"..."

"Master?"

"Ah."

"It's terrible, you agree." Before he could say this, he was called "Xi Mo".

"The most urgent thing is to find a magic weapon, not grow bamboo." Jiang Tan was still drawing a picture, "The Dragon Tomb is about to open, and you also need to have a way to protect yourself."

"I have it." Xi Mo grinned, showing his sharp white teeth, "Master, don't worry."

He suddenly stretched out two fingers, and touched Jiangtan's nib in a steady manner as if walking, and said in a soft voice, "Master always thinks of me in every way, I will not grow up."

Jiang Tan didn't respond, and listened to the child whisper, "But when will the master accept my kindness?" He froze at the bottom of his wrist, and the brush was caught by two fingers. When he looked up, he saw Xi Mochunhua A smile appeared in front of him, "I thought of it, since Master likes Houshan so much, why don't I call and give it to you?"

Jiang Tan let out a "huh" and rubbed Xi Mo's head casually, "Go to sleep, there is everything in the dream."

Seeing that the child withdrew his hand angrily, "Understood, Master is indeed Master."

This time, Jiang Tan was finally able to draw pictures with peace of mind, but he didn't know that his little apprentice looked at him with cute eyes, and he was already thinking about how to teach the old man to surrender to He Shan in the future.
