Chapter 624 Four Dangers and Three Wonders
Standing beside the quiet pool at the foot of the mountain, looking at the misty waterfall, Lin Mu was lost in thought.
He no longer had anger on his face, but was filled with a faint sadness and confusion.
Finding the Qinglian Ancient Temple was more difficult than he had imagined. Even if he met a top master like Master Yixiao, he could not give him any help. No matter how he provoked him, Master Yixiao was indifferent. He had already seen through the world and was not moved at all. He had no choice.
Lin Mu was a little amused.
Even a peerless Buddhist monk like Master Yixiao, who should be compassionate and concerned about the people, was unwilling to take action. He didn't even know who he was, but he insisted on asking Yang Shan to eliminate evil. Moreover, he himself was a peerless demon before.
This was a bit ridiculous.
The monk was unwilling to do good deeds, but he, a demon, wanted to eliminate Pu Shan.
Was it to fulfill the promise he made to Huoyun Diao, or to become a peerless good man and accumulate merit for himself?
If he did a million good deeds to accumulate merit for himself, he might be a kind person in the eyes of others, but he knew that everything was for himself.
This was also a kind of selfishness.
It was better for Master Yixiao to watch from the sidelines, which was clean and clear.
He wanted to find a motive or a reason for what he was doing now.
He was at a loss, and he did things on impulse, and he went to a dangerous place with his friends and companions. It was too stupid.
Even if the reason for this trip was really for himself, there was nothing to say, but if he dragged Mu Wanqing and Wufawutian, it would be a bit unreasonable.
At least he was unwilling to do so now, regardless of whether it was kind or not.
Lin Mu fell into deep thought.
He and Pushan actually had no grudges or hatred. Pushan killed many powerful cultivators. If he said it selfishly, it really had nothing to do with him. He could just turn a blind eye to it, and even retreat when he met Pushan to protect himself.
The reason why he wanted to kill Pushan was to fulfill his promise to Huoyun Diao. Now he really wanted to help some people with his own strength. It was not to make up for his previous mistakes, but to truly have a clear conscience.
With this thought, he felt much more at ease.
Looking for Qinglian Ancient Temple, on the one hand, was to find powerful Buddhist skills and Buddhist treasures to kill Pushan, and on the other hand, was to find a good way to control the killing thoughts in his heart. In addition, he was also very curious about the mystery of the disappearance of Qinglian Ancient Temple and the secrets that were buried in the years, and wanted to find out.
Although Master Yixiao didn't care about Qinglian Ancient Temple, he acquiesced to Wufa Wutian going with him.
With Wufa Wutian and these two scourges, he now had no guilt in his heart, as their master had already acquiesced.
Even if he was happy with Xiao Huoyun Diao, it was to help his mother get revenge.
The only thing that made him feel very sorry was Mu Wanqing. Mu Wanqing could have avoided all these disasters. He was indeed very determined at the beginning and did so. However, an accident happened in the middle. He did not expect that Mu Wanqing had such a strong character under her gentle appearance.
Life is always like this, with many accidents. No one can control everything and cannot be perfect.
But then again, if this trip is a good opportunity and returns smoothly, it will be a great opportunity for Mu Wanqing to find the Qinglian Ancient Temple.
Blessings and disasters are interdependent, and this is probably the case.
"Why are you inexplicably angry with the master?" Mu Wanqing's figure suddenly sounded behind him.
Lin Mu turned around and smiled calmly: "I just want to provoke him to come out of the mountain. I have no grudges against him. He also treated us warmly. Although the steamed buns are a little black and not delicious, we are not enemies with him. Now that he is unwilling to take action, let's go there!"
Mu Wanqing looked worried: "But now, we still don't know where the Endless Sand Sea is? What's more, it is an extremely mysterious and desperate place. Most people can't go there even if they want to."
"Endless Sand Sea, you can go there if you want." Wu Tian walked forward with a smile, "We all know that the Endless Sand Sea is the final destination now. If we compare it with the map in the blue jade slip, it will be easy to find clues."
Wu Wu also walked forward, and looked back at the mountain from time to time, fearing that Yi Xiao would chase him, and hurriedly said: "Let's set off now."
"How But so reckless? "Lin Mu frowned and said, "Why don't we go back and ask your master which way to reach the endless sea of sand." Wu Wu looked at Lin Mu with a look of contempt: "You just threw a tantrum with my master, and now you want to go back to ask him for advice. Can you be thicker-skinned?" Lin Mu blushed and said, "Why don't you go and ask? After all, you are his disciples and have a closer relationship. He certainly doesn't want to see you die tragically in the endless sea of sand. Naturally, he will tell you some good strategies to make us get twice the result with half the effort." "Come on." Wu Tian said, "You really believe his nonsense. He said he is a close friend of the abbot of Qinglian Ancient Temple. Did you see it with your own eyes? He is just bragging. How can he be so powerful? He doesn't even dare to kill Pushan, so you can imagine his strength. "
Lin Mu smiled: "According to what you said, Pushan seems to be very weak. Why don't you go and kill Pushan?"
Wutian looked embarrassed: "My master couldn't kill him, how can I kill him?"
"You disciples are very afraid of him and don't want to go back." Lin Mu smiled, "In fact, I believe what he said must be true. He is really incompetent. You two are not afraid of anything, so why are you afraid of him? And he always looks smiling, calm and kind."
"You haven't seen his true face, he is extremely sinister and will kill people without paying for it." Wu Tian immediately retorted.
"Young people are still simple after all, which is understandable." Unable to pretend to be mature.
While the few people were talking nonsense and laughing, they saw a red figure running down the mountain.
It was Huanxi, the red-clad Fire Cloud Marten.
From a distance, Lin Mu saw Huanxi holding a chicken leg in his mouth, taking graceful and agile steps, running over happily, extremely happy.
Seeing Lin Mu, Huanxi was very happy. She lay beside Lin Mu and started to gnaw on his chicken leg again. It looked very delicious.
Smelling the intoxicating aroma, Lin Mu couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't this chicken leg an illusion transformed by the black steamed bun? Why is Huanxi so happy to eat it?"
Mu Wanqing said: "Master Yixiao said that the external image is false and the mental image is real. We know that the chicken leg is an illusion of the steamed bun, so we can see the true image of the steamed bun. Huanxi has never eaten chicken legs and thinks that this is delicious, so naturally he can't see the true image of the steamed bun."
"What external image, mental image, it's all nonsense! Can you believe what our master said?" Wuwu grabbed the chicken leg in Huanxi's mouth, took a bite, and said with endless aftertaste: "It smells so good, this is clearly a real chicken leg!"
"Really?" Wutian grabbed the chicken leg in Wuwu's mouth, took a bite, and with oily water flowing from the corners of his mouth, he confirmed: "This is a real chicken leg, it's delicious!"
Lin Mu stood there, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and felt like he was cheated.
It turns out that the chicken legs that Master Yixiao ate were all real, and the ones given to the four of them were all transformed from steamed buns. This is too unkind!
The chicken legs were snatched away, and Huanxi was on the ground, screaming anxiously, and circling around Lin Mu.
Lin Mu's face was stern, and he snatched the chicken legs from Wu Tian's hand, and scolded: "Do you still have any conscience? You are worse than beasts to snatch chicken legs from a beast!"
Wu Tian wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth and smiled.
Lin Mu snorted coldly and handed the chicken legs to Huanxi. Huanxi lay on the ground and started to eat the chicken legs again.
Coming to the edge of the pond, washing his hands, Lin Mu took out the blue jade slip and said helplessly: "Now even if we know that the endless sand sea is the most important clue, and there are obscure maps, we don't know where the real location of these maps is, and we don't know if we can see some clues."
As he spoke, Lin Mu input spiritual power into the jade slip, and a blue light flashed, and he began to investigate.
He was stunned when he saw it.
The map recorded in the blue jade slip has changed a lot compared to before.
On some vague terrains, names are marked, with detailed annotations, and a very obvious line is drawn. The starting point is exactly where they are now, Langdang Mountain!
This is Master Yixiao's kind reminder!
Lin Mu couldn't help but feel happy, this is really an unexpected gain.
This trip was not in vain.
However, after he carefully examined the map, he couldn't help but be shocked.
The endless sea of sand is so mysterious and powerful.
According to Yixiao's markings, there was once a big world, which was destroyed tens of thousands of years ago for some unknown reason. The whole world has changed dramatically, and it has become full of dangerous places and desperate situations.
The endless sea of sand is an extremely powerful desperate situation, located in the deepest part of this big world.
According to the short route marked by Yixiao, one still has to pass through four dangerous places and three desperate situations. Each dangerous place is extremely dangerous and may kill people. As for the desperate situation, it is a real desperate situation, which is many times more dangerous than the desperate situation of the sea of red flames created by Pushan. It is difficult for a cultivator like Pushan to get out again.
Lin Mu once again witnessed the insidiousness of Master Yixiao.
Yixiao left a paragraph at the end, which means that even the most powerful cultivators may lose their lives in these dangerous places, and he is no exception. But if the opportunity is deep, even an ordinary person can go back and forth, and go in and out three times without any trouble.
Everything depends on opportunity and cause and effect, and cannot be forced. He hopes that Lin Mu will not misunderstand him.
At the end, he also said that he is a good person.
Lin Mu's anger, which had been calmed down, was aroused again.
What kind of people are these!
If you don't want to go, then don't go. If you are timid, then be timid. If you are indifferent, then be indifferent. If you are selfish, then be selfish. Why bother to flatter yourself?
His thick skin is so thick that even Wufawutian and the other two can't compare to him. He is indeed a master.
Putting down the jade slip, he thought about having to go through four dangerous places and three desperate places before he could reach the endless sea of sand.
Lin Mu couldn't help but feel inexplicably worried.
