The mortal self is the spiritual root of heaven

Chapter 69 Meeting Brothers Again

Zhou Xun looked behind him and saw that these were the two late-stage foundation-building monks he met earlier.

How are they?
They actually survived the swarm of "flying fire ants".

Zhou Xun was shocked.

You must know that with the methods that you and Jin Yi middle-aged have, it is difficult to protect yourself in the face of the "flying fire ants" swarm.

These two people were able to come back unscathed.There wasn't even a trace of disorder in his breath.

I can't help but sigh that there are so many strange people and strange things in the world of cultivation, but we cannot underestimate the heroes of the world.

Just as he was thinking about it, the two people arrived in front of Zhou Xun.

It is said that after the pair of brothers used the concealment talisman, they stayed in place for a full hour before coming out and flying towards the original resting place.

As soon as the escape light fell, he saw Zhou Xun and the middle-aged Jinyi sitting on the ground.

"Brother, aren't these the two monks who attracted the 'Flying Fire Ants'?" The tall and thin middle-aged man saw Zhou Xun and the two of them and sent a message to the rich old man.

A look of exasperation.

The rich old man also discovered it.

"They must have been brought here by Master Mingku, and they are here today." There was a trace of schadenfreude in his eyes.

Then, he ignored Zhou Xun and the others and found an open space to sit down.

When the old man in gray clothes and white hair saw the brothers coming back, he immediately came forward to greet them:
"The two Taoist friends are back from exploring the road. Is there any gain from this trip?"

"What can I gain? If anything, I met two white-eyed wolf cultivators." The tall and thin cultivator said while looking at Zhou Xun.

There was a strong sense of sarcasm in his words.

The old man in gray didn't hear it, and said with relief:

"Just come back"

Then he introduced Zhou Xun and his two people who were sitting down.

"These two are Taoist friends from the Tiannan cultivation world. Their cultivation is so great that Master Mingku just brought them back."

"It turns out he is a monk from Tiannan. Let's not talk about his cultivation level, but his escape skills are indeed extremely amazing!" He snorted coldly.

"Do you know Fellow Daoist Lin?" The old man in gray also sensed something was wrong at this moment.

"Know!" The tall and thin monk sneered.

I think if it weren't for you two, my senior brother and I wouldn't be like this. The friendship of more than 100 years has caused estrangement.

As for Zhou Xun, the old god was there, as if he didn't hear what this man said.

In fact, he was also very embarrassed.I really didn't expect to meet these two people here. I thought they had already fallen into the "Flying Fire Ant" swarm.

I had to pretend not to hear, close my eyes and adjust my breathing.

But the middle-aged man in Jinyi was a man who could bend and stretch. He immediately stood up, bowed deeply to the pair of senior brothers, and said:
"Brothers, please don't be angry. The situation was really urgent at that time. In addition, you met a fellow Taoist by chance. You didn't think too much and just remembered to run away."

"If brother is still angry, I will apologize to my fellow Taoist."

After saying that, he bowed deeply again.

The old man in gray clothes was also curious about what happened between these people after hearing the middle-aged man in Jin clothes.

So asked:

"Fellow Taoists, what happened to you?"

The middle-aged Jinyi then recounted how he encountered "flying fire ants", how he was forced to clean them up, and how he was besieged by the ants and ran for his life.

Why did he meet these brothers later, and why did he and the others fly away, and then meet Master Mingku later.

He told everything clearly and clearly.

The rich old man also added how friendly he was at that time, and how indifferent Zhou Xun and others were, and how hard it was for his senior brothers to divert the disaster eastward, otherwise they would not be able to come back.

After hearing this, the old man in gray knew clearly that what the brothers said was just nonsense, and their purpose was just to complete the task assigned by Master Mingku.

So he rolled his eyes and scolded the middle-aged Jinyi, "Fellow Taoist, this is your fault. Fellow Daoist Hu is extremely warm-hearted. How can your behavior be worthy of Fellow Daoist Hu's kindness?"

The middle-aged man in Jinyi also called him "yi" repeatedly, saying that it was his fault and then apologized to the two senior brothers.

Seeing this, the old man in gray clothes turned his head and began to persuade the two brothers:

"Brother Hu, Brother Lin, speaking of this, it's not all Daoist Fellow Zhao's fault. After all, you didn't know each other at the time, so it was only right that you leave directly."

"Besides, this fellow Daoist Zhao sincerely apologizes. I think this matter will be over."

As he spoke, he took advantage of the angle that Zhou Xun and the two could not see, and winked at the two senior brothers.

The rich old man nodded slightly to show his understanding.

Then he pretended to hesitate for a while and said to the thin middle school student:

"Junior brother, since Brother Wu has said so, we will give him a face and let this matter pass. Besides, didn't you and I come back well?"

Hearing what his senior brother and the elders at the meeting said, he nodded and agreed.

Seeing this, the old man in gray clothes was overjoyed and said repeatedly:
"So good! So good!"

Then he patted the storage bag and took out a jar of spiritual wine and several wine glasses made of white jade.

"My jar of spirit wine is made from 300-year-old Qingyuan fruit, and the taste is extremely extraordinary." He said with an expression of great enjoyment.

Then he picked up the wine jar, filled all the wine glasses, picked up a glass of wine first, sent it to Master Mingku, and asked respectfully:

"Master, would you like to try this Qingyuan fruit brew?"

Master Mingku waved his hand slightly, and the old man in gray bowed and retreated.

Returning to the crowd, he glanced around and said:

"Today I will celebrate our acquaintance with this wine!" He said and held up the wine glass.

"Then let's have a taste of Brother Wu's spiritual wine."

"Drink together!"

So a few people drank the spiritual wine as if they were close friends.

After a long time, Master Mingku opened his eyes.

Glancing around, he saw all six people there and nodded with satisfaction.

"Now that the six of you have arrived and it's almost time to rest, let's set off." There was a hint of undoubt in his tone.

At this time, Zhou Xun and the others still didn't know that they and others had been kidnapped by this monk.

But I can't guess what the specific reason for the hijacking is yet, but it's definitely not a good thing.

Due to the monk's super strength, Zhou Xun and the others did not dare to refute at all, and could only nod obediently.

Master Mingku slapped his hand on the storage bag, and a white lotus platform appeared at his feet.Then he stood up with one hand and chanted a few Buddhist chants.

The lotus platform grew bigger and bigger in the Buddha's light, and finally became about ten feet in size.

"Everyone come to the lotus platform"

Several people used their own methods to jump onto the white lotus platform.

Standing on the lotus platform, Zhou Xun used a part of his consciousness to observe this treasure.

Judging from the fluctuations of its spiritual power, it is several times stronger than the top-level magic weapon. It must be a magic weapon that can only be used by monks in the alchemy stage.

This lotus platform is also a rare flying magic weapon.

Judging from its speed, it is even more astonishing. It is several times faster than the speed of his own "Instant Light Boat".

I wonder if the speed I can activate the "Instant Light Sculpture" inner elixir can match that of this lotus platform.

Half a day later, everyone left the desert and walked for two more days before arriving at a canyon.
