Chapter 37: Going South to Worship Immortal Mountain
"Xianyuan Mountain is in Xiniu Hezhou, as famous as my master's Wanshou Mountain. No monsters dare to get close to each other, so how could it be dangerous?" The Taoist Chonghui hurriedly patted his chest to promise. When Gao Lan heard this, he felt relieved. However, she followed the order of Master Wuchao to follow Tang Monk to seek scriptures in the west, and she was not allowed to leave by just leaving. Thinking of this, Gao Lan came to Tang Monk's side.
"Master..."
"Hmm?" Tang Monk's eyebrows hopped, "Why, do you want to go to that Xianyuan Mountain?"
Gao Lan nodded, "Yes. The world is so big, I want to go and see it." Tang Seng said a little embarrassedly: "But you are leaving, who will make a vegetarian for me?" Gao Lan turned his head and looked at the senior brothers. Seeing that Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie were both staring at Chonghui Taoist, only Sha Seng was still clear-headed.
Looking at Gao Lan's pitiful appearance, Sha Seng came over to Tang Seng and said, "Master, the immortal Zhenyuan has a friendship with the eldest brother for eight times and a friendship. Now his disciples are we invited each other with great affection, but we cannot delay our trip to the west, which is really disrespectful. Just as the younger sister is going to go there, why don't the master beauties of humanity? It can be regarded as treating each other with courtesy. As for Huazhai, it is up to the disciples to do it."
Tang Monk sighed and said, "Since that's the case, she will be allowed to have a six-month vacation - Cuilan. You have to go and come back early. Don't forget the regrets you taught by your teacher. You are greedy for pleasure and delay the great cause of obtaining the scriptures." Gao Lan was immediately overjoyed when she heard this and quickly promised: "Master, don't worry, how could I forget the great cause of obtaining the scriptures? I just want to go out with the senior brothers of Wuzhuangguan to see the experience. Thank you for your accomplishment!"
Taoist Chonghui also said happily: "Thank you, Elder!"
The discussion was settled. After late at night, the group rested, slept and meditated. It was not until dawn that everyone packed up their things, but this time Gao Lan did not go west with Tang Seng for the time being. Saying goodbye to Tang Seng and Sun Wukong, Gao Lan looked at Tang Seng’s master and disciple going west and was a little nostalgic for a while. It has to be said that after we have been together for several years, she has become accustomed to traveling together every day.
"Junior Sister Xiaolan, let's go now." However, Taoist Chonghui quickly recalled Gao Lan's thoughts. Gao Lan smiled and said, "Then please ask your senior brother to lead the way and let's go to Xianyuan Mountain together!" Taoist Chonghui heard this and nodded, "After that being said, after going tens of thousands of miles, I'm afraid the junior sister will suffer a little." As he said, the five Taoist priests from Wuzhuang Temple all recited the truth.
Gao Lan was surprised to find that there was a faint mist on their bodies! These mists were somewhat similar to the magic power transformed by magical powers. Chonghui smiled and said, "This is the magic weapon my master gave us when we traveled out. The magic power that had been stored for a while can be controlled by the practitioners freely. We climbed the mountain and waded in the water, like walking on the flat ground. However, the magic weapon was precious and there was no extra. We had to work hard along the way."
As Taoist Chonghui said, the fog had already lifted them up several feet high like auspicious clouds. A hint of compliment appeared in the eyes of Taoist Tianjiao, because there were many places of cultivation in the world, and only a few holy places such as Wuzhuang Temple could give such magic weapons to his disciples. Gao Lan couldn't help but praise: "There is such a magic weapon. The Great Immortal Zhenyuan is indeed the ancestor of the earth immortal, and has great magical powers."
Gao Lan also saw that the Taoist Chonghui had already practiced the magical powers of the Five Ages, and must have received a great adventure! As long as he had the fate of immortality, whether to condense the physical body and magical appearance first or create magical power first depends on his own understanding. After the Taoist Tianjiao and others let go of their breath, they actually practiced to the level of supernatural powers of the Three Ages, and were also people who were qualified to pursue the Taoist immortality.
It’s no wonder Zhen Yuanzi asked them to travel.
After Gao Lan sighed, she no longer hid her strength. The magic power surged out from all over her body. In the surprised gazes of Taoist Chonghui and others, she actually floated up in the air! Moreover, Gao Lan floated up in the air, completely done by herself, and did not rely on the power of any magic weapon. Taoist Chonghui reacted for a long time and said dazedly: "Junior Sister Xiaolan, you... you have actually cultivated magic power and obtained the immortal way?"
"I don't dare to do the immortals, but the opportunity is better, and I just take one step more than my senior brother." Gao Lan quickly said modestly. Taoist Chonghui and Tian Jiao looked at each other, and they all showed helpless smiles. Thinking that in Wuzhuang Temple a year ago, Gao Lan was just a little maid who had just gained magical powers. Although it made rapid progress later, he was just a disciple of ordinary cultivators with them.
Now Gao Lan has actually cultivated magic power and entered the immortal class. It can be said that he has truly distanced himself from the mortal cultivator. No matter how many magic weapons there are or how good it is, it is only the power from the outside world. How can he be free to become an immortal? However, the disciples in Wuzhuang Temple are all from famous schools, so they will naturally not be confused by the Taoist heart. Gao Lan's breakthrough also allows them to see hope for the future.
"I really didn't expect that there are really some disciples of ordinary cultivators in Jiazi to reach the sky in one step! We can't fall behind in this trip to Xianyuan Mountain." Taoist Chonghui took a deep breath and then bowed to Gao Lan. "Senior Sister Xiaolan, let's go to Xianyuan Mountain now, please come with us!" Taoist Chonghui and others have changed their words and called Gao Lan the senior sister.
Gao Lan was not pretentious and bowed, "Please."
Afterwards, the group led the way by the Chonghui Taoist, Gao Lan followed by the Tianjiao Taoist and others, and flew towards the south. Although most of the road were wilderness and mountains, immortals were no longer traveling than ordinary people. When they met streams and wading through water, they were also ten times faster than those of fierce horses. When Gao Lan first entered his magical power, he could travel thousands of miles a day and eight hundred miles a day at night.
Now it is possible to truly let go of your hands and feet and rush around thousands of miles a day. However, Gao Lan did not deliberately show her magic power, but just followed the Chonghui Taoist people in a hurry. She also found that the disciples of Wuzhuang Temple were very skilled in controlling magic weapons. Although they were definitely not as flexible as their magic power, the problem of walking was no problem.
Therefore, after this day, he drove out a distance of six or seven thousand miles. Including the mountains and rivers of tens of thousands of miles, it only took a few days to do it. Gao Lan thought that Tang Seng was dragging his way every day, so it was no wonder that Sun Wukong was always impatient.
Seeing a small city in front of me, the group put away their magic power and kept their feet on the ground. Except for the Chonghui Taoist, Tianjiao and the others seemed very tired. Gao Lan also knew that controlling magic power was closely related to the magic power of the body; Tianjiao and the others had low magic power, not to mention that they were not controlling their own magic power, so they naturally couldn't bear it. Chonghui Taoist slowed down and said to Gao Lan: "Senior Sister, how can we settle in the city ahead first?"
"Senior brother, you have the final say." Gao Lan would not steal the limelight with him, so he arranged it to enter the small town together.
It was already late autumn, and the sunset was setting, giving the small town a layer of afterglow, which gave it a warm feeling. Although the small town was not big, there were many people on the streets, and it seemed very lively. Taoist Chonghui led everyone to walk slowly, and soon saw a spacious inn. Chonghui smiled and said, "Senior sister, are you staying here?" Gao Lan said, "Okay."
They walked into the inn together and saw that there were already eighty or ninety percent of the people sitting in the hall. The group of six people happened to find a table to sit around and ordered food. Taoist Tianjiao was tired and hungry, and they didn't care about politeness, and they ate and chatted with Taoist Chonghui, talking about their travels outside and their experiences on the journey to obtain the scriptures in the West.
Gao Lan had no intention of cherishing the realm of immortality that he had realized. He took it out to discuss it with Taoist Chonghui, which made him praise him and be willing to give him a chance. However, what Gao Lan understood was Buddhist practice, which would inspire his practice, but might not have a great effect. Taoist Chonghui also took it out to discuss his understanding of his cultivation, and Gao Lan was also greatly inspired.
When everyone was full of food and food, it was already dark, and there were bright lights in the hall. Gao Lan looked at the guests coming and going in the store and couldn't help but joke: "According to my experience, some violent incidents are very likely to occur in such inns..." Before she finished speaking, a horse sound suddenly came from outside the door; then the faintly hidden door was kicked to pieces, causing Taoist Chonghui to raise a big finger at Gao Lan.
"Senior sister is worthy of being a god. She can actually tell fortunes by judging her fingers? I admire her!"
"That..." Gao Lan was speechless for a moment. Do you think I am the Buddha of Tathagata? As the two were talking, a group of ferocious wild men had already entered the inn. Gao Lan looked around and felt a little surprised: these evil men were full and strong in body, and were considered the best among mortals. Some of them were afraid that as long as they got the opportunity and went further, they could carry blood and return to the elixir and practice physical magic.
Moreover, there seemed to be many of these evil men. Listening to the outside, they would probably occupy half of the entire street. There were more than a dozen accomplices who squeezed in from the inn. Many of the guests were scared by these evil men. For a moment, they stopped eating food and drinking wine, leaving only the wicks of the headlights making a light sound. The boss sitting at the counter was motivated and leaned over and said, "Uncle..."
"If you have nothing to do, step back!" A big man in the lead stepped forward, took out a big knife and stuck it on the table, scaring the boss to faint. "The night before yesterday, at the foot of my Huaxiong Mountain, a friend broke the business of our brothers! After inquiring for a day, the brothers found that these friends lived in Chaixin City. Since they were heroes and had the courage to do things, they had to have the courage to come out and take it. Why bother hiding their heads and tails and not daring to meet each other?"
The big man's voice was loud and even more fierce, which scared many people tightened their necks. Of course, Gao Lan and the others were not inside. Their table was leaning against the corner of the wall, and they were drinking and eating and eating, watching the excitement. At this time, Gao Lan temporarily left Tang Seng and the others and stepped back into the world. Only then did he truly feel the freedom of the gods: his magical powers and his magic powers were vast, and he could change his storm and sit in the garden.
"The gods and Buddhas above, looking at us scattered immortals, may be like this, right?" Suddenly, Gao Lan had such a strange idea.
At this moment, a door suddenly opened in the guest room on the second floor. A scholar in his thirties, who was in his thirties calmly came downstairs after hearing the sound. The scholar was fair-faced and dressed in a simple and elegant manner. After appearing, the wild men were obviously suppressed by his demeanor, and his voice suddenly weakened. A woman in her twenties was also next to the scholar, with a beautiful appearance. Although her demeanor was slightly weaker than the scholar, she was not afraid of the robbers at all.
Chong Hui was a little surprised and said, "I didn't expect that there would be a master in the magical power realm here! I wonder which sect is from?"
