Chapter 449 parting

Many major events will happen in the autumn of this year and in the following winter, some of which can be foreseen in advance, such as the Taoist throne finally united to fight against the demon clan. Therefore, several Taoist priests left Pangshan on a slightly cold morning, which was just an insignificant little thing at that time, and even a bit sad.

Among these people, Zuo Liuying is the one who attracted the most attention. He has become the only Taoist priest who voluntarily withdraws from the Taoist throne in the history of more than 130,000 years. Many Taoist priests have verified this and confirmed that this statement is correct.

After all, Taoist priests are Taoist priests. At the beginning, there were many different opinions after half a night. The only correct statement left: Zuo Liuying withdrew from the Taoist throne to survive the disaster. The genius Pang Shan encountered the sighing disaster - also known as the "unsurpassed disaster". All Taoist priests will fall in front of it sooner or later. Accepting calmly is the only choice, but Zuo Liuying insisted on challenging it and was challenging himself. Many people admired his determination, but no one believed that he would succeed.

Perhaps even Zuo Liuying himself did not believe it, so he wanted to withdraw from the Taoist throne, stay away from everyone's sight, and stay away from those disappointments and gloating. He was once considered one of the Taoist priests who had the most hope of reaching the realm of subduing the moonlight, but now he is always at the level of the sixth level of the God of Mind.

There is a rumor that was proven to be wrong. Zuo Liuying's level of cultivation did not decline due to the art of quitting thoughts. He was indeed unable to exert all his strength, but that was because the old wounds of the Battle of quitting the Liucheng were irrelevant to removing memory.

What memories have he removed? Since it is related to the secrets of the Taoist priests who can only understand the Taoist priests, there will naturally be no credible statements, especially if he can't say anything.

In contrast, Mu Xingqiu received less attention and more despair. Ordinary Taoist priests have not reached the state of ruthlessness and desirelessness. I heard that Mu Xingqiu voluntarily transformed into a demon for Yang Qingyin, and he praised it very much, but he always added a sentence, "Being trapped by love is not the right way. Mu Xingqiu got a star-fall inner alchemy at a young age, but stopped in the face of love disaster. It is probably the so-called "blessing with good fortune and misfortune."

To outsiders, the two Taoist priests who stopped in front of the Taoist robbery seemed to be somewhat sympathetic. Seeing them deviating from the right path and heading towards the dangerous wilderness, they had to find the exact answer in the fog, it was difficult for the Taoist priests to give their sincere blessings, so no one came to see them off that morning.

Shen Hao didn't come, he had already said goodbye in advance. He didn't want to add sadness to his true separation.

Shen Xiuming was like an old mother who was sending her children to a long house. She was chatting all morning, "This is a new batch of fruits collected this year. You eat them soon, and they will break if you keep them for a long time. These are some of your things. Shen Hao brought them back. Why did you buy a bunch of straw hats? The people in the city heard that you live in me and sent many gifts. I know you don't like them. I rejected most of them and left only this one..."

It was a folding fan with the whole poem "General Xing" written in neat handwriting. Mu Xingqiu received it, and soon his treasure bag was not enough, so he had to use another Qiankun bag.

Xiao Qingtao came to meet Mu Xingqiu early and also received many gifts and nagging from Shen Xiuming, "You are a Taoist priest, and you have your own ideas. I can't understand it, but you are a female Taoist priest after all. Why do you have to run to the demon group? Xin Youtao will be fine. Brother Xiaoqiu can send him back safely, let alone the Eight Daotongs. Isn't the war about to begin? When you leave, people have more gossip..."

Xiao Qingtao learned how to deal with it from Mu Xingqiu, but just nodded and smiled without explanation.

"It's really strange. You always take risks everywhere. Why this time..." Chen Xiuming held back the ominous words. This time was different from before. Mu Xingqiu took the demon-making pill. Chen Xiuming inquired that six Taoist priests had already died because of demon-making. Yang Qingyin and Pei Zihan were still alive. One wanted to reverse and the other wanted to continue, but they were stuck in the middle stage and could not advance or retreat. Mu Xingqiu could be said to have a life of death. The more terrible result was that the demon-making was successful and became the target of the Taoist throne's pursuit.

Chen Xiuming felt that he would not be able to get rid of the entanglement of nightmare for a long time in the future.

Mu Xingqiu also left a few gifts, not for Chen Xiuming, but for the two children Shen Cunyi and Zhang Xianger. "Joining Pangshan and each gave them a hundred-night candle, which is good for cultivation. Condensing the energy into a pill, and then each gave them a demon pill and a bone staff. Wangshan is closed, and it is very difficult to inject demons into magic weapons. The bone staff is a demon weapon, which contains some demon species, and may be useful."

Chen Xiuming knew the value of these gifts very well. His ominous premonition became stronger and he felt so sad in his heart that he almost cried. After taking the gift, he turned around quickly and happened to see Zuo Liuying.

Zuo Liuying stood at the door, wearing a Taoist robe, and had no hairpin on his head like Mu Xingqiu. I don’t know if it was an illusion or something was true, but the mystery of the Shintoshi and the majesty of the head of the Forbidden Secret Section almost disappeared from Zuo Liuying. Apart from that, he did not look at any memory damaged.

Even so, Chen Xiuming still felt nervous, saluted in panic, and said he was hurriedly, avoiding many embarrassing scenes when saying goodbye.

The room was so quiet that the needle was heard, and finally Zuo Liuying spoke first, "When will we set off?"

Zuo Liuying was actually asking for advice from him, and Mu Xingqiu was very uncomfortable, "Immediately, but I want to ask about some things."

"Um."

Mu Xingqiu was thinking about this question all night, "Why do you want to follow me? You can travel around the world and live in seclusion. The world is so big that there are places where you continue to practice everywhere, so there is no need to follow me to watch me turn into a demon."

Xiao Qingtao couldn't help but lower her head and shrank. Zuo Liuying was a Shintoshi after all, and Mu Xingqiu could not accept it when she spoke in a questioning tone.

Zuo Liuying thought for a while, as if she was trying hard to find a reason from her remaining memories. Finally, he said: "I believe your statement about the origin of Daohuo."

Mu Xingqiu was stunned. He thought that all he had said was indifference and ridicule, but he didn't expect Zuo Liuying to take it seriously.

No matter how strange the Shinto priests are, they will never lie.

"I'll give you another choice, between the Taoist priest and the ancestral tower. Which one will you protect?" Mu Xingqiu asked.

"The Patriarch Tower." Zuo Liuying replied without hesitation, as if this was a secret code, "The Taoist priest who lives for a long time will eventually die. The Patriarch Tower will last forever, so no matter what the situation is, the Patriarch Tower is the only choice."

Both of them were very calm, but Xiao Qingtao heard a little tough, and became even more nervous. She looked up at Mu Xingqiu and found that he was actually smiling.

"I have to find out if you are still the same as before. You haven't changed, but this time you go to Baizhang City. It's you who followed me, not me who followed you, so it's up to me to make the decision."

Zuo Liuying was a little confused, "Pang Shan couldn't allow me to take the Patriarch Tower away. What do you want to decide?"

"I decide when to set off, when to rest, whether to fight or reconcile, whether to retreat or advance."

Zuo Liuying's mind seemed not to be left in this room. His eyes were always slightly lowered, staring at the irrelevant ground, as if he was making a silent communication with a distant Taoist priest, but he did hear Mu Xingqiu's words and could give an answer, "I agree."

Mu Xingqiu suddenly realized that he was too childish and he had nothing to decide. After thinking about it, he picked up a straw hat without a head and tucked it on his head, "Then let's go."

Zuo Liuying reached out and picked up a straw hat. She stared at it for a while, as if she had never seen such a thing before, and then put it on her head.

Xiao Qingtao was very surprised. She didn't like straw hats, and there was a long hairpin on her head, so it was not appropriate to wear them. Seeing that the other two had already walked out of the room, she stuffed the whole stack of straw hats into her Qiankun bag and followed them quickly.

Xiaohao came over yawning. She neither returned to Pangshan nor went to find fellow Luanjingshan. She lived in Shen's house all night, not caring about all the news that had been circulated last night. She was not surprised to see Zuo Liuying, "Hello...the first one."

"Hello, Duan Caihao."

Xiao Hao said it casually, but Zuo Liuying was a little too formal.

"Are you going to set out now?" Xiao Hao asked Mu Xingqiu.

“Let’s go now.”

"I can't fly, whoever you guys will take me?"

"We are going to Baizhangcheng, not back to Pangshan."

"Yes, I just want to go to Baizhangcheng with you. I have thought about it. Without you, I really have no interest in practicing boxing. It would be better for you to be by my side all the time in the future." Xiao Hao's eyes glanced back and forth on the three of them, looking for someone who could take him to fly.

Zuo Liuying pressed the brim of the hat slightly, "This is something that requires you to make a decision, right?"

Mu Xingqiu looked upright and said to Xiaohao: "No, you are a burden. We can't take you with you. You stay and concentrate on practicing boxing and wait for me to come back to check."

Mu Xingqiu rose to the sky with his sword and suddenly saw something coming from the front yard, which scared the servant who was sweeping the floor. The yard gate did not come, and the thing jumped past and landed easily. The unicorn flea also came, and it jumped and jumped like a puppy, and wanted to bite Mu Xingqiu in the sky, and then circled around Zuo Liuying, not allowing him to fly up.

Mu Xingqiu made up his mind and did not land again. Zuo Liuying stretched out a hand and gently pressed it on Qilin's forehead, "You are Pangshan spirit beast, but we are no longer Taoist priests of Pangshan, stay."

The flea stopped moving, lowered his head sadly, rubbed Zuo Liuying twice, then raised his head and looked at Mu Xingqiu, as if there was expectation in his clear yellow eyes.

"Let's go." Mu Xingqiu said, taking the lead in flying out of the city, Zuo Liuying and Xiao Qingtao followed closely behind.

Mu, Zuo and the other two did not look back, but Xiao Qingtao frequently looked back. Seeing the figures of fleas and Xiao Haku gradually became smaller, and he suddenly felt sad.

More than ten miles away from the city, Xiao Qingtao had already removed his sorrow and became stronger. Zuo Liuying suddenly stopped in the air and turned back. The other two did as well. They saw the scene that surprised them. Pangshan Iron Kirin, who had never shown flying ability for generations, actually ran in the air with the wind with all the hooves - fleas carrying the wormwood to catch up with them.

"Haha, we two are not burdens." Xiao Hao shouted excitedly, let out a long whine, riding fleas past the three of them, and continued to fly westward.

"What about your decision?" Zuo Liuying asked.

Mu Xingqiu raised his hand to scratch his head, but he met a straw hat, so he laughed, "Hey, I have already owed Pang Shan a lot of favors, so I'll steal two more things."

This year was the 642nd year of the 37th Ancestor of the Taoist Orthodox. The ancestor disappeared and the ancestor peak was destroyed for six years. The battle between Taoist demons was about to burn again. Four Taoist priests and a Qilin left Duanliu City, taking away a faint hope, a hope that almost no one believed in - the origin of Taoist fire.
