Cultivation starts with time management

The Eastern Emperor Shrine was built on the top of the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Looking out from the railing of this corridor, you can see ice and snow, meadows, lush coniferous forests, and the Shiwanda Mountains and tropical mountains in the distance. The rainforest and peach blossom miasma, all kinds of scenery have a panoramic view.

"Among the [-] mountains, the scariest thing is not monsters." Long Xiaoqi said in a low voice, "It's the ruins."

"The relic?" Jiang Li asked strangely, "Isn't that an adventure?"

"It's an adventure if you come out with your life." Long Xiaoqi said, "If you die inside, it's not an adventure, but a murderous intent."

"Indeed." Wei Dongliu naturally added to the topic, "Moreover, the Shiwan Dashan was once an ancient battlefield between the human race and the monster race. The ruins inside are not only immortal dwellings, but also pure war traps."

"If you enter it by mistake, even if you don't die, you will lose your skin, and don't even think about the benefits."

"Really?" Jiang Li was thoughtful, but the interest in his eyes did not diminish at all, and he smiled, "Xiao Qi is a local, so he must know the terrain around here very well? Where are the ruins and where are the traps?" , should be well understood.”

"Jiang Daoyou." Wei Dongliu said with a smile, "All the outer areas that she knows well must have been explored long ago. How can we have a share?"

"That's right." Long Xiaoqi nodded and said, "Every year when the miasma dissipates, the exploration team will enter the Hundred Thousand Mountains, focusing on exploring areas that have never been visited before."

"In addition, there are many ancient ruins. We have never explored them before, but they have been searched after entering. It seems that people from Shushan made it to them first."

"So in addition to the exploration team, we also need to form a hunting team every day to protect the exploration team from being intercepted by Shushan, or to intercept the Shushan Sword Immortal whose location has been confirmed, so as not to be endangered by the other party to our exploration operations."

Intercept and kill the opponent... Wei Dongliu laughed dumbly, don't think I don't know, you are crushed and killed by Shushan every year, how can you have the strength to counter-kill the opponent?

Jiang Lian was obviously aware of this, but he didn't expose Long Xiaoqi's whitewashing and said with a smile:

"With our five factions joining forces this time, the reckless man in Shushan will be alone, so there is nothing to worry about."

"En." Long Xiaoqi nodded, "According to the original agreement of the five factions, the five factions have to take turns to select people for the hunting team. On average, each person will be responsible for one day for every two days of exploration. .”

"However, I told the headmaster... Well, Daoyou Wei, Daoyou Jiang, You Wen and Daoyou Gu are all powerful people in the Foundation Establishment Realm, so you can choose not to participate in the hunt, but to join the expedition team."

"Expedition team?" Wei Dongliu asked curiously.

"It is the area that goes deep into the [-] mountains and is close to the gate of the Eastern Emperor's Realm." Long Xiaoqi explained, "It is extremely dangerous there, and even Jindan cultivators often fall. Only the strongest disciples in the Foundation Establishment Realm can Follow the Jindan seniors to go deep into it."

Wei Dongliu and Jiang Lian looked at each other for a moment.

The former remained calm, thinking silently in his heart.

The latter smiled, eyes eager to try.

Chapter No.17 Wei Daoyou sees Weizhi's work and sees it thoroughly!

Traditional comprehension novels are like games, and the increase in the number of enemies is also an important part.

For example, if the protagonist is at the Marrow Cleansing Stage, then most of the enemies encountered must be the Huafu Stage on the upper floor, so that the protagonist can just go all out to climb the stage and win the battle.

After all, if the enemy is at the Golden Core Realm, the protagonist can probably only run away; if it is at a higher Nascent Soul Realm, then there is no chance to run away, and the novel can end early.

But reality is not a novel after all, and where you are going, it is impossible to hang a sign saying "no entry for senior monks".

In most cases, it depends on whether this place has value for high-level monks to set foot in.If there is, then the low-level monks can only resign themselves to their fate and pray that they will not run into high-level enemies.

One hundred thousand mountains is such a place.

There are many benefits in it, which make the monks of the Nascent Soul Realm excited; there are also many relics, which even the monks of the Huafu level have the opportunity to fully explore.

Therefore, every year when the miasma dissipates, a large number of monks break into the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Shushan, Donghuang, and many expatriate monks, even casual cultivators... In short, good and evil are mixed, and anything can happen.

If monks of the same level meet, they will often avoid each other after careful testing, after all, fighting is not good for both sides;

Once the realm gap is too large, it will almost inevitably lead to a one-sided massacre... It doesn't matter if the outer disciples die, but if they are the elite seeds of the faction, of course they cannot be ruined by bad luck.

Therefore, the so-called expedition team is not so much about bravely entering high-risk areas, but more about high-level monks protecting and leading the training throughout the process.

After hearing Jiang Li's explanation, Wei Dongliu finally understood.

Alas, this character doesn't have the characteristics of a thousand enlightenments, so I'm really not used to it.

As for the answer, of course it is not joining.

Although the big guy's training is very delicious, what should I do with the synchronization value set by my mysterious person?

I'm here to make a joke, Jiang Witch just got curious, and the boss said "that's it", didn't my mysterious persona collapse on the spot?

"That's great, but I, Wei, won't participate." Wei Dongliu said lightly, "I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Jiang, if you want to join the expedition, we can separate here."

Jiang Liyan:? ? ?

For the first time, she couldn't hold back her face, showing an expression of inexplicable astonishment.

No, the seniors of the sect lead the training all the way, so you don't have to worry about being ambushed by high-level monks in Shushan, you can explore the ruins with confidence!

Wei old thief, what are you thinking?To give up such a good opportunity voluntarily, is it because he was gnawed by the demon?

"Young Daoist Wei." She carefully considered her words and said, "Whether or not to join forces this time is naturally up to everyone's voluntary will, and will not force it. However, the little girl is a little curious, can you reveal the reason?"

Wei Dongliu smiled faintly and said:

"It's inconvenient to tell, sorry."

Jiang Liyan: ...

She immediately became annoyed.

This is simply nonsense!A good high-ranking monk leads a team to protect you, and you have to die and explore alone. I really can't think of any reasonable reason to do so other than deliberately showing off... and so on.

After all, Witch Jiang is also a person with a quick mind, and suddenly a thought popped up in her heart:

Ok.

Could it be...

Among the sect seniors leading the team this time...

Is there an old acquaintance that old thief Wei knows, and he doesn't want to meet?

Thinking about it this way, she felt that it was very possible - she had long suspected that Wei Dongliu was hiding his strength, but she didn't know the real state of the other party, and she didn't dare to test it directly.

Although there is no conclusive evidence, you must know that even the unicorn at the gate of the Eastern Emperor Shrine has rarely become interested in Wei Dongliu!

Who would believe that he was a low-level monk who hadn't formed a pill yet?

Thinking of this, another secret inspiration popped up in Jiang Li's heart:

Could there be a very old soul living in Wei Dongliu's seemingly young body?

An ancient soul from the Nascent Soul Realm... maybe even from the Immortal Realm?

There was no clue to this guess, it was just a wonderful inspiration that suddenly came from the bottom of my heart just now, as if it appeared out of thin air.

However, Witch Jiang is a person who believes in intuition very much. After all, intuition has saved her many times before danger.

For example, the last time she was in the Wuzhi Islands, relying on a sudden bad premonition, she escaped a sudden interception by a monk of Yuqing Temple.

If this intuition can also be fulfilled this time, then Wei Dongliu... has an old monster who took away his body living in Wei Dongliu's body?

Wei Dongliu didn't know his identity, and Jiang Li's brain made up what he looked like, but he found that the synchronization value of the mysterious character had increased sharply, and immediately said to Kunlun Mirror excitedly:

"Look, Ah Jing, I have long said that you are prejudiced against Fellow Daoist Jiang, don't you see that this girl is also quite cute!"

"Very good." Kunlun Mirror didn't want to talk to him, and said casually, "If you want to have a deep friendship with this female devil, I can only say that you are happy."

"A Jing collected the sour taste, I just set it up for the sake of synchronization, don't be too jealous." Wei Dongliu said proudly.

Kunlun mirror: ...

"Then what are you going to do?" She changed the subject and asked, "If you don't join the expedition, you can only explore and hunt."

"That's the only way to go." Wei Dongliu said with a sigh, "As long as I don't meet high-level sword immortals and old acquaintances, I can deal with other Shushanmen."

"In that case." Here Jiang Lifan finally thought about Zhou Ding, and smiled again, "Let's go discuss it with fellow Daoists Wen and Daoist Gu."

Wei Dongliu raised his eyebrows in surprise.

I said so decisively, but Witch Jiang didn't give up directly. Is this the meaning of intending to keep me?

Moving!

"What does Xiaoqi think?" Jiang Liwen turned around and asked.

"I can do anything." Long Xiaoqi said leisurely, anyway, the headmaster just asked him if he would like to, not necessarily asking him to join the expedition team.

"Okay then, let's go find two fellow Taoists and discuss it together." Jiang Liyan clapped his hands and laughed.

Since they were all brought in by Long Xiaoqi, the guest room where Wen Yang and Gu Lie live is not far away, and soon they were called out.

"Don't join the expedition team?" Wen Yang also showed the same surprised look, "Why is this, fellow Daoist Wei, can you explain it conveniently?"

"You don't need Daoist Wei to explain, let me tell you." Gu Lie sneered, "Joining the expedition team, is it the meaning of the elders of the sect, or the meaning of the leader of your sect?"

"Naturally, it means the head of the sect." Long Xiaoqi said calmly.

"The reason why Master Shi proposed this is because the fairy beast Qilin in front of the palace gate talked to fellow Daoist Wei, right?" Gu Lie continued to sneer.

Long Xiaoqi didn't answer, but shook his head slowly.I don't know if it means "no", or "don't know", or "it's inconvenient to say".

"If it is the elders of the sect who let you join the expedition team, it is naturally possible." Gu Lie didn't mention the Qilin, but said coldly, "But if it is Shi Jiaozhu's intention, then it is not the sect. The seniors value it, it's just to show the face of the teacher."

"Although this is the case, after the news is sent back to the sect, what will the brothers and sisters of the same sect think?"

"They won't know that Master Shi's face is at work, they will only think that you are being valued by the elders of the sect, and thus become jealous and hostile towards us... After a period of time, they found that the elders did not really treat us like this If you value it, you have to suspect that we have fallen out of favor."

"In this case, do you think most of them will let go of their fear of us, or try to beat the dog in the water, and see if they can squeeze out the benefits given by the elders of the master from us?"

"Naturally it's the latter." Wen Yang also smiled coldly, "Friend Daoist Wei knows a little bit, and Fellow Daoist Gu understands human feelings, which made me suddenly enlightened and taught."

"Of course it's best to have a cheap one." Gu Lie finally concluded, "But if you're picking up a cheap one under the eyes of everyone, and you don't have enough strength to dispel the ensuing covetousness, you have to carefully weigh whether it's worth it!"

"So that's it." Jiang Liwen sighed and said, "In this way, I really can't join the expedition team, but it's just a pity that the tree attracts the wind. I am not as thorough as Fellow Daoist Wei. Thanks to Fellow Daoist Gu for clarifying the confusion."

Wei Dongliu smiled, but didn't speak, and smiled awkwardly in his heart:

What are you guys thinking about?

Chapter 18 Don't Kill Yourself

Long Xiaoqi did not express any objection to everyone's decision not to join the expedition team.

She just planned to report everyone's decision to the head after the meeting, but she found out that the head had gone out to handle errands.

Standing outside the main hall door, Long Xiaoqi thought carefully for a long time.

"...Forget it, it's so troublesome."

"do not care."

She slowly returned to the guest room area, but saw Wei Dongliu leaning on the railing in the corridor and looking into the distance, as if he was waiting for her.

"Fellow Daoist Long." He turned around and said with cupped hands.

"Just call me Xiaoqi." Long Xiaoqi said softly, "Sister Li also calls me that."

Sister Li?Wei Dongliu turned his head and realized that she was referring to Jiang Lian.

Probably because Jiang Liwen and Long Xiaoqi have a relatively close relationship, so they have different names in private. Now that Long Xiaoqi has noticed Jiang Witch's attitude towards Wei Dongliu, she plans to pull him into this private circle Come.

"Xiao Qi, there is still some time before the opening of the Hundred Thousand Mountains. I am very bored living alone in the guest room. Can I find some books to read here?" Wei Dongliu tentatively smiled.

"Yes." Long Xiaoqi replied without any intention, "We have a Buddhist scripture pavilion, and visitors are allowed to enter the outer periphery. I can take you there."

Wei Dongliu was overjoyed.At first, I thought I could only ask Long Xiaoqi to lend it out, but I didn't expect to allow myself to go in and look for books!

This Donghuang Dao is indeed a miscellaneous sect in the Six Paths of the Devil's Sect, and the management system is so loose!congratulations!

Long Xiaoqi brought Wei Dongliu to the Sutra Pavilion, only to see that the huge attic was empty and there was no one there.

Even Shushan Sword Immortal, who doesn't like reading the most, has one or two people in the Sutra Pavilion. It can only be said that monsters may not like to be a writer.

"You can't go into the inner room there." Long Xiaoqi pointed out to him, "You can read the books outside as you like, but you can't take them away."

"I see." Wei Dongliu said sincerely, "Thank you, Miss Xiaoqi."

"You're welcome." Long Xiaoqi lowered his head, as if a little embarrassed, "I'll go first, do you know the way?"

"Naturally."

"Uh-huh."

Long Xiaoqi turned his head and left, while Wei Dongliu strolled in the scripture storage pavilion, searching for the classics carefully.

The characteristics of the Sutra Pavilion in the later period of Jiejiao have been clearly differentiated from the interpretation of teaching. The most typical one is "skills are more important than methods", and the more powerful and quicker Taoism classics are placed in the periphery and within easy reach.

As for the advanced and difficult Taoism, which requires a long time of practice, it is basically in the deep corner and no one cares about it.
