I looked at my master with a shocked face. Could it be that that person...had something hidden?

Old Six!!

I almost blurted out these three words, but I thought that the old willow tree outside Zhenwu Temple has the toughest wicker branches in this season, and it hurts the most when hit, so when the three words came to my mouth, I silently swallowed them back into my stomach. After all, I still felt the same in my heart.

Somewhat awkward.

How many things did my master hide from me?

My master did not pay attention to the change in my expression. He seemed to be lost in memories and said lightly: "You know why our Qingwei Dao inheritance came here. It was because of the war. Therefore, Zhenwu Temple

Located here, this place is the gateway to Dragon City, with high mountains and deep valleys, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.

When the founder built the Zhenwu Temple, he gave a lot of consideration to foreign enemies and did a lot of work on defense techniques.

For example, the bronze statue of Taoist Sanqing sitting in the main hall has been here for many, many years. From the day the Zhenwu Temple appeared, it has been sitting there without joy or sorrow.

However, when our Zhenwu Temple was first established, we were too poor to collect enough copper to cast a solid bronze statue. Therefore, the Sanqing Taoist statue you worship every day is actually hollow. You don't even know.

Behind the hollow bronze statue of Taoist Master, there is actually a secret door.

Of course, it is impossible for you to know about this matter. With your ability, the secret door cannot hide it from you, but you will not check a statue that you worship day and night...

The ancestors of our Zhenwu Temple. When each generation of ancestors is about to sit down, they will walk into the bronze statue and carve runes there. Those runes contain their lifelong understanding of Tao and bless their strength.

, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth day and night, it is actually a huge defensive formation.

But, that night, we purified the hearts of ghosts and immortals for Lady Wan'er, and used the blood as a matchmaker to penetrate the South China Sea and connect with Guixu. When countless corpses, ghosts and demons invaded the Zhenwu Temple, could you see that defensive formation erupting?"

I shook my head slightly. I didn't even know that the Zhenwu Temple actually had such a defensive formation. How could I pay attention to this?

"Because the power of that formation has been exhausted, and it will take many, many years to accumulate it before it can exert its power again." My master looked desolate.

I was stunned for a moment and asked: "Is it related to...her...?"

My master nodded: "The night that man came, your life was in danger, you were unconscious, and you didn't know anything about the outside world.

Not only you, Yao Zi, Lao Bai, and Xin Ya were all in low spirits during the meal that night, and fell asleep after the meal.

A vague spiritual power shrouded the entire Zhenwu Temple. Only the master could barely support it with his Taoism, but his head was still dizzy and he had no aura.

When that person arrived, I didn't see him, but I saw the clear air in the main hall soaring into the sky, dyeing half of the dark night sky like red clouds. However, all this did not last long, and soon returned to calm.

The person came uninvited, but Qingzhu arrived later, and only then did the teacher realize who it was.

The defensive formation of our Zhenwu Temple was broken by her!"

I already had a bad premonition in my heart, and I said calmly: "When she came, why would the Zhenwu Temple's defensive formation be activated..."

"You already know the answer, why bother asking again?"

My master sighed: "That man... I'm afraid he's not a human being either!"

"What is that?!" I asked hurriedly.

"I saw the clear light in the main hall rising to the sky, and I guessed it was...a demon!"

My master said: "A very terrifying demon, perhaps more powerful than Hu Xian'er in the demon ruins, has already achieved enlightenment!"

Demon...

I felt sad for a moment and couldn't help but sigh: "How come I can't even meet anyone?"

"It's time and destiny, what can I do?"

My master also shook his head and sighed: "You have been in a daze since the day I met my master, and you couldn't bear to expose this matter. I thought that as time went by, you might not think about it anymore. Who knows... As of now, it can only be

I told you the truth.

So, when you look at her now, are you still confused?"

I lowered my head and thought carefully for a while, then said, "I'm still grateful to her, but I still... don't know.

When I think about it more deeply, I don’t know what to do. Instead, I think it would be better to serve Taoist Sanqing like this for the rest of my life..."

"You must not have such an idea. If you have such an idea, how can I explain it to your father? How can I explain it to the ancestors of your Wei clan? I will take you to the Zhenwu Temple and worship the Qingwei Dao.

I want you to have a place to stay, but I don’t want you to be an old Taoist priest who spends all his time in business." My master immediately objected.

"Tell me...who is she?

The old ghost on the altar said that she is a taboo-level existence..."

I hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but ask: "The taboo existence of the Tianmeng... is she... really the empress?

The legendary empress is a demon?

this……

Since she is a demon, why does she have to uphold the Yin-Yang Covenant?"

"The water in Tianmeng is too deep, even as a teacher I can't tell."

My master said: "It's not necessarily the Empress. The fact that the Heavenly Alliance has been able to exist for such a long time must have unimaginable background, and it may not be that there are no other taboos.

As for the Empress, to be honest, although various evidences show that the Empress is indeed still alive and she has even helped you, but... I still doubt whether she is alive or not!

Maybe there are other taboo beings taking action under the guise of the empress. It’s hard to say. Let’s not get along with the muddy waters of the Tianmeng. At least you can’t get involved until you truly become a Tianguan and can push forward an era.

, otherwise we won’t even be able to protect ourselves!”

After saying this, my master continued: "As for the existence of this taboo, do you think you are more grateful to her? Or are you more grateful to her? Or... you just grabbed a life-saving pill when you were about to die?

Straw, in your darkest time, she became the light that illuminated you, so you mistook this complicated and unspeakable emotion for the so-called love?"

"I...I still don't know..."

I said bitterly: "I only know that I will still think of her from time to time.

But for Ma Yao, I don't know how I feel. Is it because I am temporarily obsessed with her appearance, or...

well……"

"Look, you can't even recognize your own heart, so why bother making a decision in a hurry? Aren't you wasting your life?"

My master said: "As a teacher, I don't understand emotional matters, but I know that a person should do what he wants, so that he can be happy throughout his life. If you can't see your own heart clearly, then you might as well give yourself some time."

, as you walk, there will always be a moment when you suddenly look back and you will understand what you want."

I struggled: "But the old ghost on the altar said that when a person has been in darkness for a long time, white moonlight suddenly shines through the window. This person thought that the white moonlight was what he longed for, so he chased the white moonlight with all his strength, completely forgetting that he was in the dark.

Among the people who were trembling with him, he later caught up with the white moonlight, but found that it was so white that he felt uncomfortable. At that time, he realized that he belonged to the darkness, but when he looked back, he found that

The person in the darkness is long gone."

"Dependent origination and cessation have their own destiny."

My master said calmly: "Literati often say that deep love will last forever, but my teacher thinks that the so-called deep love is nothing more than the passion of the moment. The body's impulse dominates the brain's consciousness. The so-called deep love is nothing more than the passion of the moment.

It's just an illusion. From my perspective, true love will last forever, never leave, depend on each other for life and death, and can withstand the test of time and suffering.

Since people will leave, they are not destined to be there, so how can we talk about deep love?"

"But...Zhang Yao..."

"..."

My master suddenly glanced sideways outside the window, looking a little guilty. After confirming that no one was outside the window, he waved to me: "Come over here."

I was stunned for a moment and quickly moved over.

My master hesitated for a moment, and then said quickly in a low voice: "Women, if you are close, you will be disrespected, and if you are far, you will be resentful. There must be a scale in this matter. If you grasp this scale, that little girl will never have sex with you again."

thing.

As for how to grasp this scale, so that this little woman can overcome the disagreement with you that night and stop punching and kicking you at every turn, this is not what I am good at, but... you can ask Lao Bai

…”

"Just... coaxing her? That guy from Lao Bai has a deer-headed head and a rat-like mind. His ideas must be extremely filthy. I want to follow them. Isn't it a bit too dirty?"

I whispered softly.

"It's you two who are dirty, what does it have to do with me!?"

A loud shout rang in my ears. When I raised my head to look at my master, I was completely shocked.

He seemed to be a different person, sitting on the kang, his eyelids drooped, his eyes were downcast, and he looked like an outsider. He waved his sleeves and rebuked me, as if I was as unbearable as a piece of shit.

When he saw it, he scolded: "Traitor, don't talk to me about these dirty things and disturb my Qing Cultivation. Go and rest, go and rest!!"
