The Taoist priest suddenly raised his head, shocking Lu Bai.

After waking up, Lu Bai fell on the boulder and raised his hands to the Taoist priest, "I've seen you, senior."

The Taoist priest nodded imperceptibly and withdrew his gaze, still staring blankly at the flowing river water.

Lu Bai followed curiously and looked at it.

The river water fell straight down, spreading the water mist on both sides. The river water was strong and powerful, like thousands of horses galloping, and every wave that hit the cliff was like a horse neighing.

In front of such a spectacle, even the realm of Lu Bai and Xiaoyao realm felt small.

The waterfall falling down is just a common and understandable thing in terms of cognition, but this kind of momentum is something that even the most advanced practitioners cannot possess, yet it is the state that many practitioners are pursuing.

"Man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, heaven follows the Tao, and Tao follows nature." Lu Bai sighed softly, "Human beings are indeed insignificant in terms of Tao, and nature is man's master."

The Taoist priest opened his eyes and looked at Lu Bai in surprise: "I didn't expect that you would have such insights at such a young age. No wonder you entered the realm of freedom at such a young age."

Lu Bai turned back to look at him and scratched his head, "I, I just said this out of emotion, and I didn't say these words."

The Taoist priest was not surprised, "Your master told you, where did you learn from it?"

Lu Bai shook his head, "No, this sentence comes from the Tao Te Ching."

This is a fishhook, fishing.

Lu Bai could tell that the person who dared to practice on this waterfall must not be an ordinary practitioner. If he could make friends with him and say a few words, it might be beneficial in the future.

The Taoist priest really took the bait. His expression changed drastically. He suddenly stood up and took a step closer to Lu Bai. "There is this verse in the Tao Te Ching? Isn't it the Taoist Emperor?"

Lu Bai was startled, "Emperor of Taoism?"

Man follows the earth, earth follows the sky, heaven follows the Tao, and Tao follows the emperor?

Lu Bai somewhat understood that the Tao Te Ching in this world was not only incomplete, but also seemed to have been partially tampered with.

The Taoist priest approached Lu Bai again, his eyes were very excited, his body was hidden, and he tried his best to endure, "Where did you learn from, is this really what is written in the Tao Te Ching collected by your master?!"

Lu Bai thought about it briefly and realized why the Taoist priest was so excited.

Not to mention that there are different interpretations of nature, that is, changing from emperor to "nature", this verse is completely different, and the artistic conception is the same as that of Lao Shizi emperor, which makes the world wider and wider.

Lu Bai nodded, "I studied under the Shushan Immortal Sword Sect overseas, and this is what is written in the Tao Te Ching collected by my sect."

He did not forget to assure the emperor, "Our sect is ancient, and this scripture must be correct."

The Taoist priest left Lu Bai and stood on the waterfall, looking at the roaring waterfall at his feet. "My guess is indeed right. Taoism is natural and not the emperor."

He looked up at the sky again, his eyes red, "Master, I can finally confirm that you are talking about escape! The disciples made the right choice!"

Lu Bai looked up at the sky and asked strangely: "Senior, why are you running away?"

The Taoist priest calmed down and said, "It's nothing."

He raised his head and patted Lu Bai on the shoulder, "Little brother, I want to thank you for your advice. It was you who strengthened my Taoist heart when I was unstable."

Lu Bai said modestly.

You can win the kindness of others with just one sentence, which is a very good deal.

The Taoist Master hesitated for a moment and then said: "Little brother, since you can express the natural understanding of Taoism and you are probably not a piece of rotten wood that cannot be carved, I will give you a few words of advice."

Lu Bai nodded, "You say."

The Taoist priest looked at the sky, stood on the boulder, and looked into the distance, his clothes still wet with water mist, "Everyone knows that gods are good -"

Lu Bai almost said, "Only fame and fame can't be forgotten."

Fortunately, he endured it.

The Taoist priest continued: "I feel that freedom is the most comfortable in the world. Practicing and seeking Tao is just for detachment, breaking away from the constraints of heaven and earth, and transcending things. If you blindly pursue ascension, even if you end up in the immortal class, you will still be in the middle of the court.

To be an official is just like a fly and a dog, so why bother? Listen to the advice of an old saying: when you are drunk, you can sing and drink a thousand cups, and you can ride a donkey in the great rivers and mountains."

Lu Bai felt it made sense.

He also doesn't want to ascend to the top and become a god who can't have a free time.

But sometimes for some things, it’s impossible even to think about it, such as trouble with the Sword Immortal.

Also, who wants to know whether the gods in heaven will be free or not? "Taoist Master, have you ever been up there?" Lu Bai asked with a smile.

The Taoist priest stroked his beard and sighed, "If I had ever experienced Taoism, I wouldn't be alive here."

He told Lu Bai that it was important to listen to his advice.

Lu Bai listened, but still couldn't help but said: "But ascending can lead to immortality, right?"

"What's so good about being immortal?" the Taoist priest was disdainful, but then he thought about it and took out a pill from his arms, "Besides, immortality does not necessarily require ascending. I have a pill here, which should theoretically lead to immortality.

, but the medicinal materials are limited, and we can only refine this one, no one can try it, and there is no way to try it."

He felt that Lu Bai was destined to him, "Take this pill, and even if you can't live forever, it can make you stay young forever and live a long life."

Lu Bai took the pill and asked, "Is it real or fake?"

The Taoist priest snorted disdainfully upon hearing this, "If you can't trust me, you don't have to give up."

Lu Bai hurriedly took it into his arms, "Senior, it's not that I can't trust you. The main thing is that you only have one pill and you haven't tried it before. It doesn't matter if it doesn't keep you young forever. I'm afraid it's poisonous and will kill people. It's poisonous.

It will be troublesome if it is disabled."

The Taoist priest reassured Lu Bai, "These are made from heavenly materials and earthly treasures that others covet, and they are absolutely non-toxic." He paused, "If you are worried, you can go to the Medicine God of Yaowang Valley."

Master Ye Gu will take a look at it for you."

The Taoist priest also wanted to repay Lu Bai for his advice, "If you are really worried, then return the pills to me."

The Taoist priest really didn't want to give it.

"I want it!" Lu Bai took a step back, "There's no reason to take back the gift you gave me."

As for the Yaowang Valley miracle doctor’s firmness, forget it.

When Lu Bai uses the Realm Upgrade Card, as his realm improves, all his skills will improve simultaneously. His Turtle Breath Technique has now reached the early stage of the Sky Breaking Realm, which is enough to see whether the pill is poisonous or not.

He thanked the Taoist priest and asked: "Senior, are you enlightening here?"

The Taoist priest nodded.

He lowered his head and looked at the waterfall at his feet, "The water of the Ningjiang River is surging. It is untamed. It has the power of thousands of troops and horses. It has the power to shake the three rivers and the five mountains. It has the power of the great river rising from the sky. I am sitting here cross-legged. This is

I am comprehending the way of such a great river."

Lu Bai was in awe after hearing this, "You mean, you are comprehending the mountains and rivers and creating your own Taoism?"

The Taoist priest nodded, "Not bad."

"Awesome!" Lu Bai was very impressed.

This kind of realm is beyond what he, the hanging wall, can understand.

After chatting for a few more words, in order to avoid people outside worrying, Lu Bai bowed his hands and said goodbye.

Before leaving, Lu Bai did not forget to ask: "I don't know, senior Taoist temple - if we meet again in the future, or pass by the Taoist temple, we can go inside and ask for a drink, right?"

The Taoist priest sat cross-legged and said, "Taoist priest, old and dead wood, as for the Taoist temple, it is hidden in this deep mountain and old forest. If the donor passes by the Taoist temple one day, the old man will sweep his couch to greet him."

After that, the Taoist priest stopped talking and stared at the waterfall falling thousands of miles away.

In this deep mountain and old forest?

Lu Bai murmured, thinking that there were few monsters on this road, maybe it had something to do with the Taoist temple.

But since the Taoist priest used the word "hidden", he obviously didn't want people to know where he was, so Lu Bai didn't ask anymore.

He raised his hand to the Taoist priest, broke through the air and walked out.

"There is a friend waiting for you below." The Taoist priest's words came slowly from the mist.

After Lu Bai's body stagnated slightly, he went out again.

Gu Qinghuan had been waiting for him outside for a long time. When he saw that he was safe and sound, when he breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but curiously asked him why he had been gone for so long.

Lu Bai told him that he met a Taoist priest inside, and took out the pill by the way, "The Taoist priest said this is the elixir of immortality."

Gu Qinghuan was surprised.

Before she could say anything, the sloppy Taoist priest rushed over from the side.

Lu Bai dodged him and said, "What are you doing? If you don't have a teacher anymore, I will take care of you."

The sloppy Taoist priest scratched his head and scratched his head anxiously, "Master, the Taoist priest gave this to you? Why didn't we find this medicine when we went to the temple? It turned out that he had brought it with him. This prodigal thing actually contained such

Good things are given away."

Lu Bai thought thoughtfully, "Do you know that Taoist priest?"

The sloppy Taoist priest nodded hurriedly, "I am his uncle! Master, in this calculation, he is equivalent to your disciple. How dare you ask for such a precious thing from your disciple? It is best to leave it to me. I will keep it in the middle -

—”

Lu Bai knocked his hand off and said, "Go, who said I was embarrassed to take it?"

He held the pill, looked at it carefully and asked the sloppy Taoist priest, "Is this medicine really good for immortality?"
