After Hongjun became holy, I ran with the ball

He quickly arrived at the destination, but the aura on the past life mirror still hadn't fully recovered, and a thin layer of white mist around it persisted for a long time, which meant that the spells he laid were useful, and the past life mirror was trying to absorb the surrounding aura, But it is still too slow, and a full recovery is still a few days away.

Hongjun tried to import his aura, but it was still the same as before, and it didn't have any effect at all. The artificially imported aura was not accepted by the past life mirror itself, and this thing could only absorb aura from the surrounding environment.Moreover, Hongjun has also researched that the attribute of the past life mirror itself is not the five-element aura spontaneously generated between heaven and earth, but a specific attribute aura.

Anxious in his heart, but unable to do anything, Hongjun stood there thinking for a while, then turned and went to another place.

In Zixiao Palace, Huaizhen had just finished his meal when the little boy said, "I, Taoist Lord and Yuanshi Taoist Lord of Kunlun Mountain, please see me."

"Where's the saint?"

The little boy shook his head: "I didn't see a saint."

After going out without a word, Huai Zhen sighed and said, "Please come in, the two Taoist lords."

At this time, Hongjun just came back.

"No, your apprentice is here."

Hongjun rubbed her hair, said with a smile, "I see, let's go play." Then, he went straight into the hall.

Huai Zhen and Kong Xuan looked at each other: "Tell me, is he getting more and more abnormal?"

Kong Xuan covered his mouth with his small wings, and whispered to her ear: "Have you ever been normal?"

Huai Zhen thought so, and was about to continue to speak ill of Kong Xuan when a fruit core hit the back of his head suddenly.

"Day!" Huai Zhen cursed, and quickly shut up, "Go for a walk, don't eat too much. You two, you have to walk by yourself, don't rely on me."

In the hall, Yuan Shi couldn't help laughing, and when the master looked over, he quickly sat upright and pretended nothing happened.

Lao Tzu took the initiative to speak: "Master has accepted a new disciple, but have you set a time for entry?"

"Not yet. It's convenient for them. Anyway, I have nothing to do." Hongjun sat down lazily, looking like he was not doing anything right, and didn't care about his image of a saint at all.

Lao Tzu nodded: "That's right. Does Master need us to help?"

"I will notify you when the time comes." Hongjun briefly ended the question, and looked at Yuanshi, "What did you see when you went to the territory of the mermaid tribe last time?"

Yuan Shi was slightly stunned, and then replied: "Master, are you talking about the ancestral temple of the mermaid race? It's all tablets, nothing else, but the aura flow there is a bit different, because those weird aura movement direction and air flow, it is only Let those dead mermen realize that they have returned home, and the consciousness left in the tablet can continue to exist."

Hongjun nodded. He had just passed by and immediately discovered the movement of aura there, which was different from other places.He remembered that Huaizhen said that when she first returned to the Shaman tribe, she had no place to live, and the tribe didn't pay much attention to her, and because the remnant souls of her mother and father were there, she lived in the ancestral temple , stayed for many years.

But after he went there, he didn't find any trace of Huai Zhen's life. ——Of course it doesn't refer to the things Huaizhen used or left behind, but the traces of aura, as if they were annihilated by that special flow of aura.

Therefore, there must be a special formation here.

"Come with me again later."

Yuan Shi quickly responded.

Only then did Hongjun look at Lao Tzu: "Speak directly if you have something to say."

After pondering for a moment, Lao Tzu said, "I have something I want to ask the teacher to respect. ——A few days ago, I did some calculations, but I suddenly discovered that dozens of star tracks have shifted."

Hongjun raised his eyelids: "Is there any effect?"

Lao Tzu frowned: "I can't see anything yet, but this is the first time such a large-scale deviation has occurred. This disciple is uneasy, and I really want to hear Master's opinion."

"I know there is such a thing, but I still don't know how it happened. The only thing I can be sure of is that someone has seen through the secrets and tried to change certain things."

I was surprised: "This—"

Hongjun said again: "Don't be in a hurry, let's see what his purpose is."

I replied: "Yes." After hesitating for a while, I didn't know whether I should say it or not. At this juncture, I always felt like a villain who fell into trouble.

"Speak up if you have something to say, who is this acting for?" Hongjun looked up at him impatiently, if it wasn't for the sake of his apprentice, he was not too young, so he couldn't treat Huaizhen the same way. He can't be bothered to listen to these people's gossip because he can read minds casually, he is not as straightforward as Huai Zhen.

Yuan Shi also urged: "Brother, why do you think so much? Can Master still not understand?"

Lao Tzu sighed, and said: "Most of these deviated star paths are related to the demon court. I originally thought to observe it a few more times before telling the master, but Tai Yi suddenly advanced and became our master again." Junior Brother, this matter cannot be dragged on any longer."

Regardless of whether the three-legged Golden Crow knew about it or not, their Sanqing couldn't be contaminated with this cause and effect. After thinking about it, it is naturally best to leave it to the sage.

Hongjun lowered his eyebrows and said nothing.

Laozi and Yuanshi looked at each other, not understanding what the master meant, so they fell silent together.

After a while, Hongjun spoke again: "The problem is not with the three-legged Jinwu."

Lao Tzu was taken aback immediately: "How could that be?! Who else has such ability?!"

The reason why he hastily reported this matter back and forth was because I was concerned that Di Jun had the Hetu Luoshu in his hand. Perhaps he had inadvertently caught a glimpse of the secret from Hetu Luoshu's foreknowledge, and wanted to suppress the bad things to the demon court. If they are all removed, it will inevitably cause large-scale impact.But if it wasn't for the three-legged Golden Crow, wouldn't the seriousness of the situation make people even more anxious?

"After a while, you will probably know what's going on." Hongjun looked at the two of them, "During this time, don't go back to Kunlun Mountain. There are some things that you need to do."

The two immediately responded: "Yes."

When Hongjun returned to the inner hall, Huaizhen had already returned from a walk and fell asleep again.Kong Xuan lay there on her back on the pillow, her belly bulging from sleeping, while Tu Shansui nestled on her neck.

Huaizhen hugged the fox with one arm, letting the big furry tail wrap around her wrist.One person and one fox all looked very satisfied.

Hongjun lost his temper immediately, walked over to pick up the fox, threw it on the couch on the other side, and then squeezed onto it by himself.

Huai really fell into a drowsy sleep, and didn't react too much when the fox in his arms was taken away, but just subconsciously shook his palms.But Tu Shansui woke up all of a sudden, opened his eyes wide and looked over, and when he saw that it was a saint, he immediately shrunk himself into a small ball and nestled down on the small couch next to him.

Of course Hongjun didn't sleep, he wanted to wake Huaizhen up to accompany him, but just as he stretched out his hand, he remembered what Huaizhen said during the quarrel outside the door today, so he stopped embarrassingly.

However, she was really bored, so Hongjun tore and braided her long hair... After tossing back and forth four or five times, he couldn't continue playing. He stared at Huaizhen's sleeping face for a while, and suddenly had new ideas.Putting his forehead against the center of Huaizhen's brows, he carefully inserted his soul into Huaizhen's altar.

This was Hongjun's first time entering Huaizhen's soul space.

The inside of Huaizhen Lingtai is like the resort town she has been rambling about. There are flowers, trees and grass. The breeze blows in, and even the air is filled with the natural fragrance of flowers and plants. It immediately makes people feel refreshed and comfortable. , also very much like herself.

Hongjun walked around quickly and saw this small world clearly.Apart from these foreign things, there are no half-familiar people or things in Huaizhen Lingtai, which is a bit strange.

But Hongjun didn't dare to continue to investigate, Huaizhen's cultivation was still too low, if he stayed for a long time, it would inevitably make her very tired and even hurt her bones.

After the visit, Hongjun withdrew, and as expected, seeing Huaizhen frowning in his sleep, he injected spiritual energy into her again to soothe her.

At some point, Hongjun also fell asleep, and when he woke up, exactly half an hour had passed.

Hongjun lay on the bed, did not get up, suddenly felt dazed as if he was a guest in a dream, he fell asleep just now?Since the Demon Slaying War, he has never been able to sleep like this again.Although it is true that people with advanced cultivation do not need to sleep, but occasionally, they need to enter samadhi, which is actually similar to sleep.

Before entering the advanced stage, if the cultivation level is not enough, you need to enter meditation.Once in samadhi, you can hardly feel anything from the outside world, so it is very easy to be watched by people at that time, and you need to find a safe and proper place.

Hongjun remembered that even before he was sanctified, he had never been in samadhi, because of the devilish energy in his body, he did not dare to slack off.If it weren't for the profound merits and virtues in him, I'm afraid he might have died under the thunder of sanctification.

After so many years, he has long given up any hope for his state. Anyway, he won't die. It's just that he is awake all the time and the pain of his injury makes him very irritable.But with Huaizhen by his side, he was able to restrain his temper.

After this sleep, Hongjun felt refreshed like never before, and even the hidden diseases in his body seemed to be much better, and the magic energy was suppressed by the fast-flowing spiritual energy, and he no longer tortured him all the time. .

Huaizhen was half asleep and half awake, opened his eyes and looked at him, then went back to sleep.

"Get up." Hongjun pinched her face.

Huai Zhen snorted and frowned, but ignored him.

Hongjun relentlessly continued to harass her: "I'm going to the territory of the mermaid tribe, will you go?"

Huai Zhen immediately opened his eyes: "Go!" As he spoke, he yawned again, "Shall we go now?"

"Wait a little longer, go when it gets dark."

Huai Zhen looked at him suspiciously: "Are you planning to do something bad?"

Hongjun looked at her with a half-smile: "Yes, so I need you, an acquaintance, to guide us."

Huai Zhen blinked: "Us? Who else?"

Just as he was talking, Lao Tzu and Yuan Shi walked outside the door and were waiting: "Master."

"Wow, big boss team, are you really going to do something?"

Hongjun called out a cloak for her to put on: "Besides, go and have a look first."

Huaizhen didn't say much anymore, rubbed his eyes to wake himself up quickly, then got out of bed, and looked at him expectantly: "Let's go."

Seeing her like this, Hongjun was upset: "Will you tell me if you want to go back?"

Huaizhen: "Oh, it's all the same. If you want to go, you can take me with you. If you don't go, there is no need to make a special trip." Then he grabbed Hongjun's arm and asked with a smile, "Where are we going?" ? Are you going to the Jongmyo Temple?"

Hongjun looked at her and couldn't help laughing: "Go, you must go."

"Sage, you are such a good person." Huai Zhen was so happy that she was about to jump up.

Hongjun laughed out loud.In his life, he had heard countless compliments, but it was the first time someone said that he was a "good man", but hearing it from Huai Zhen, why wasn't he surprised at all?

Seeing Huaizhen, Lao Tzu and Yuan Shi were also a little surprised, but it was only a moment before they came back to their senses and saluted: "Ma'am."

Huai Zhen replied with a smile: "It's troublesome."

Lao Tzu hurriedly said: "No trouble, no trouble, madam, don't think too much."

"Let's go." Hongjun took her hand, walked out of Zixiao Palace, immediately wrapped her up and hugged her, "Hold on tight."

Huai Zhen responded and shrank into his arms, and instantly heard the whistling of the wind by his ears.

After a while, the wind became quieter.Huai Zhen poked his head out quietly, it was pitch black, he couldn't see anything, not even the stars, he didn't know what method they used to hurry.

Hongjun pressed her head: "Hold on a little longer."

Huai Zhen shrank back obediently.

I don't know how long it took, Huaizhen was about to fall asleep, and only then did he hear Hongjun's voice in his ear: "Here we are."

Huai Zhen yawned, rubbed his eyes, and after landing his feet on the ground, he realized that they had reached the entrance of the ancestral temple of the Merman Clan.

Yuan Shi and Lao Tzu followed quietly all the way, and when they arrived at the destination, they said: "There should be no guards in this place, and there should be no formation that prohibits entry. When I came last time, the road was unimpeded."

Huai Zhen looked at him, nodded and replied: "Indeed, there are none. There are dead mermaids inside, and the little bit of consciousness left behind, even if creatures from other ethnic groups come in and see it, they can't understand it, and they can't take it away. There is really no need to be on guard. What's more, the mermaid clan's cultivation base is not high, so it doesn't matter if they have guards or not."

Hongjun held her hand: "Go in and have a look."

Huaizhen couldn't wait any longer, and immediately entered the ancestral temple.Huaizhen has been thinking about it for a long time since she learned that her mother's consciousness may also remain here. Although her childhood memories are incomplete, her feelings for her parents always exist.

Hongjun followed closely behind her and also walked in.

The moment Huaizhen entered the ancestral temple, this specially made hall seemed to come alive suddenly.

Hongjun paused for a moment, raised his eyes to see the aura that suddenly came alive, squinted his eyes, stretched out his hand to grab the void, the white mist-like aura really seemed to be conscious, dodged quickly, and then He made a grimace at Hongjun, stuck out his tongue, and floated away.

Yuan Shi obviously also saw this scene, and was very surprised: "Master—" When he came last time, he didn't see this scene.The aura in the ancestral temple is indeed strong, but there are many places like this in the Great Desolate Continent, and Yuanshi never cared about it, let alone felt that there were living creatures here.

"Go and see if you can catch it."

Yuan Shi immediately responded, and chased after the direction where the spiritual energy disappeared just now.

Hongjun saw that Huaizhen had already walked to the front, so he hurried on.

Lao Tzu felt that it was not appropriate to follow him, looked around, and found this place to be quite interesting, so he chose another direction and went to explore alone.

Huaizhen stopped in front of the innermost inner hall of the ancestral temple. She could feel that her mother's remnant consciousness was inside, but she couldn't walk any longer, feeling ashamed of "being close to the hometown".Even though her childhood memories are not very clear, Huaizhen also knows that her current life is far from what her mother expected.

"What are you doing standing here? Go in and have a look." Hongjun pushed her to go inside.

As soon as the door was opened, countless remaining consciousnesses were stuck in front of him, sticky, with the unique icy breath of mermen, Hongjun frowned impatiently, and stretched out his hand to wave it away.

Huaizhen immediately found her mother's consciousness, and that consciousness also stuck to her the moment she came in, rubbing her cheek intimately.

"Mother." Huai Zhen choked up inexplicably, with a thousand words in his heart, but at this moment he couldn't utter a single word.

Hongjun frowned, very upset, but he didn't bother her, and continued to walk a few steps inside to observe the structure of the hall.I have to find a way to bring back the remaining consciousness of Huaizhen's parents. Maybe after raising them, they can restore their consciousness before they were alive. Perhaps, some things can be revealed.

Yuan Shi chased after Bai Wu, but failed to catch him as he wished, but accidentally lost him after chasing him.

This little thing was too cunning, seeing that he was about to be unable to escape, he quickly merged into the aura and dispersed his body.The original mass of anger was also scattered in the rich aura, which could not be found anywhere.

Yuan Shi gritted his teeth with hatred and had to stop, thinking carefully, is there any way to capture it accurately, while thinking about playing hide-and-seek with this group of fresh aura, unconsciously, he came to the end of the ancestral temple.

According to the direction they came in, as well as the current time and the direction of the stars, Yuan Shi estimated that this is probably the northeast corner of the ancestral temple, and it is also the outermost periphery of the northeast direction of the mermaid tribe. If you go further out, there will be a dense forest.

The little thing condensed into shape again, baring its teeth and waving its claws to demonstrate against Yuan Shi, and then ran away all of a sudden.

Yuan Shi followed unhurriedly, observed the surrounding terrain carefully, and had a vague guess in his heart.
