Chapter 364: Dust Wanderer
There was silence for a long time.
Waves of Buddhist chanting sounded in my heart again.
Urge him to calm down and dissipate all ripples.
But Chen Xuan made up his mind.
"If the mind is not clear, how can the Tao be clear?"
"I want to find her to see my true heart."
Chen Xuan left the hut and also left the uninhabited village.
He started on his journey, forcing himself not to forget his original intention and to suppress the endless Sanskrit sounds in his mind.
The Buddhist scriptures that once filled my mind were now as silent as a disturbing spell, repeating over and over again without stopping.
Chen Xuan did not dare to relax. He regarded all this as his own suffering, kept his original intention in mind, and fought against those Sanskrit sounds.
Use your feet to balance your mind and use scriptures to refine your heart.
Walking towards...Anshan.
However, he will get lost again halfway and be trapped in the strange domain; or he will be firm in his mind, break away from the restrictions of the strange domain, meet his former wife, and find his true heart in the world.
Will there be another way...
It is unknown.
......
Anshan has been relatively peaceful recently.
Li Yuan stayed in the mountains, and apart from practicing and recuperating, he also chatted with the celestial demon and looked at the human world below the mountain.
Quite pleasant.
The outside world is in turmoil and many things are happening at the same time.
He could feel that there were fewer prying eyes.
I think his attention is focused elsewhere.
Li Yuan had been suppressing himself, suppressing the life force in his body that wanted to repair his injuries.
Just stay in a seriously injured state and wait for the fish to take the bait.
Even, every few days, he would deliberately draw the Fushang Sword, with a "sad look on his face" to steady the attention of the outside world.
The world under the mountain.
Those practitioners, following Li Yuan's instructions, have been secretly spreading the news that Anshan wants to take sides.
An immortal who grows very fast and can kill immortals, and is suspected to have "some background" above.
If he turned to one side, it would be a great deterrent to the hostile factions in secret.
After all, the current way of heaven is still relatively stable.
Those heavenly rules have not yet become blurred, and the immortals and gods still have to abide by them.
A few more days passed.
The troublemaker has not yet shown up, but the person who wants to win over Li Yuan has shown up first.
"Anshan Mountain God, I, the old Taoist priest, came here to pay my respects to you."
A Taoist priest in a purple robe came to Anshan.
He has white hair and a youthful face, slightly protruding cheekbones, thick eyebrows and long eyes, and he has an immortal look and temperament.
As soon as I got up the mountain, I went to the mountain temple to burn a stick of incense.
That incense is not an ordinary item, but a rare item specially made by immortal spirits.
It is engraved with heavenly patterns and is a treasure of merit recognized by heaven.
After burning, it directly turned into a large amount of incense power and flew into Li Yuan's body.
Its concentration is equivalent to the incense offered by a mountain god for thousands of years.
For Li Yuan, it was almost the total amount of incense burning in a whole day.
Of course, basically no one can find out the specific details of Li Yuan's incense without knowing it.
Even if someone peeked, they could only see a thick golden light and could not tell the number.
After offering incense, the Taoist in purple robe said "I apologize".
With a wave of his hand, he removed the original clothes of the statues in the temple.
There was a flash of light, and then he put on a simple gray patched robe.
It is a magical fairy treasure that contains great merits and can ward off disasters and misfortunes to a certain extent.
Obviously, the person behind the purple-robed Taoist priest was friendly to Li Yuan and came with sincerity.
Of course, Li Yuan greeted this with a smile.
He appeared directly and invited the Taoist in purple robe to have a chat in the bamboo forest in the mountains.
Ever since returning from Liangshan, Li Yuan always talked and rested in the bamboo forest, except under the old trees on the top of the mountain.
"The Taoist priest has profound cultivation and extraordinary temperament..."
Li Yuan smiled politely, his expression calm and gentle.
No matter what happens next in this game of hijacking someone, he is already quite satisfied with Lingxiang and Baona alone.
I'm in a very good mood too.
The purple-robed Taoist bowed and smiled:
"I have heard that Anshanshan is a fairy with extraordinary appearance and is a gentle and kind person... Now that I have seen her, I can see that seeing is believing..."
At the beginning, it was naturally just a bunch of polite lies.
Both sides flattered each other, smiled constantly, and expressed their goodwill.
It took a while before we got to the point.
"The Anshan Mountain God is extremely talented, but I wonder where his master is and where his senior is from?"
The purple-robed Taoist stroked his beard and smiled, speaking in a gentle tone.
Li Yuan 'showed emotion' and 'was slightly embarrassed':
"Ugh..."
"I don't have any masters or elders. I am just a self-taught person. I have struggled hard and encountered setbacks along the way. Only by luck did I gain some fame..."
"If there was someone behind me looking after me, I wouldn't have ended up like this... Oh, forget it, I'm just talking nonsense and making you laugh."
Li Yuan stopped talking and sighed with emotion.
He drank his tea quietly, with a look of loneliness and helplessness on his face.
In secret, Li Yuan observed the Taoist in purple robe and always felt that there was a vague sense of familiarity in his aura.
But there is no clue yet.
When the Taoist in purple robe heard this, he felt that the tone and words really sounded like someone who was looking for someone to join him!
He immediately smiled and struck while the iron was hot:
"The great era is gradually coming, and the situation is treacherous and unpredictable."
“The world is about to change.”
"If there is no one to guide the Anshan Mountain God, he will be lost..."
Li Yuan pretended to be surprised: "Oh? The world is going to change?"
The two sides exchanged some pleasantries.
The purple-robed Taoist changed the subject and revealed his true meaning:
"It just so happens that I know a highly respected and revered hidden great man."
"That powerful person is of ancient status, has great merits, and has boundless magical powers. Looking at the heavens and the earth, he is a top-notch strong man."
"He has made many friends and connections throughout his life. He also admires the outstanding young immortals like the Anshan Mountain God..."
Li Yuan smiled, and did not rush to respond, but asked:
"We've been talking for a long time, but you still don't know your name?"
The purple-robed Taoist paused for a moment, but he was not worried:
"My name in the human world is Chenyou, and I am just a wanderer in the mortal world."
Suddenly, it was Li Yuan's turn to be dazed, and he suddenly remembered some past events.
He waved his hand, and immortal power emanated, strengthening the shielding effect of the mountain.
Chen Yousanren was somewhat suspicious, fearing that Li Yuan would take action:
"What is this, Anshan Mountain God...?"
Before he could finish his words, Chen Yousanren's eyes widened, his beard trembled, and he looked a little dazed.
Because of this moment.
Li Yuan took out a yellow wooden gourd.
It was slightly larger than a palm, stained with blood, and exuded a sense of sadness.
The yellow wooden gourd that had been silent for a long time seemed to sense something and floated up. The mouth of the gourd flickered with light and revealed a hint of purple glow.
At the same time, a flash of light appeared in Chen Yousanren's arms.
A jade gourd with a radiant purple aura also appeared on its own from the method of absorbing objects.
One yellow and the other purple, both gourds were glowing with light and stood side by side in the air.
"It's really you."
Li Yuan sighed softly.
No wonder the smell seemed familiar.
Chen Yousanren was a little surprised. Looking at the blood-stained yellow wooden gourd, he stuttered and was stunned for a moment.
"This this......"
"You...this...this is not my brother's..."
Dust-wandering wanderer stood up suddenly, took a few steps back, and was extremely shocked.
The yellow wooden gourd was spinning around, the blood on it had long since dried up, the stains had turned dark, and that seemed to explain everything.
"When the old Taoist priest was in danger, he asked me to seek your help."
"Unfortunately, I asked someone to look for you, but they told me that you had gone into seclusion and there has been no news since then."
Li Yuan spoke softly, looking at the blood-stained yellow wooden gourd hanging in the air, his eyes filled with some guilt.
Although he tried his best in the matter of the old Taoist priest, he was ultimately unable to save his benefactor.
Chen Yousanren was no longer as calm and indifferent as before. At this moment, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were trembling slightly, and he slowly walked towards the blood-stained yellow wooden gourd.
His eyes were red and he was a little speechless for a moment.
