Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

Chapter 518 Ruins and Entry
"I didn't see Senior Jia just now. I thought you forgot?" On the second floor of the attic, in a certain room, a middle-aged man in a brocade robe was coming forward with a smile on his face. , it was the monk who was in charge of the auction before.

"Those are thousands of spirit stones, how can I forget them?" Mo Juren replied in a low voice, which perfectly complemented his short, thick and rough image at the moment.

"Senior's words are true, but this junior's thinking is wrong." The brocade-robed man smiled coyly, but thought to himself, is there a lot of thousands of spirit stones?This store is not going to smash its own signboard just because of this spirit stone.

Naturally, I can only think about it, it is impossible to say it, I have already taken a storage bag and handed it to the front while thinking,
"This is the auctioned price of the materials and artifacts entrusted by the senior, minus a certain handling fee, the rest is in there, you can count them."

"I believe that Ruyilou's reputation won't be enough to falsify even this bit of Lingshi." Mo Juren took the Lingshi and inspected it a bit, and then he cupped his hands and offered to leave, and turned around without waiting for the other party to keep him. leave.

"This senior really has a unique personality!" Seeing the figure disappearing in a hurry, the man in the brocade robe chuckled.

At the same time, an old man with silver hair suddenly walked out slowly from behind, looking at the closed door, he murmured in a low voice,

"He has found me."

"Probably not, you are a late-stage alchemy monk, and there is a powerful formation on the second floor of the attic, especially in terms of shielding the consciousness, the power is extremely extraordinary. Under such a premise, unless he is Yuan If you are a strong infant, otherwise it would be impossible to notice your existence." The man in brocade robe was a little surprised.

"I'm not sure about this, but my intuition tells me that he must have noticed it." The silver-haired old man shook his head slightly, and said again,

"This person is by no means as simple as it appears on the surface. It is very likely that it is an old monster in disguise, but I don't know who it is? The sudden auction of rare materials and a magic weapon here should not be aimless, maybe There is some kind of purpose implied."

"Not to mention the materials, haven't you checked that purple bead artifact? Didn't you find anything special?"

"Perhaps my cultivation is not enough." The silver-haired old man frowned, and continued,
"I have been observing secretly during the auction before, and I really found some strange places."

"What's strange?" The man in brocade robe thought for a while, then said,

"I remember that thing was photographed by a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment period. I happen to recognize this person. He is a casual cultivator born and raised in Liyang Valley. His name is Liu Yuan. He has some relationship with my Ruyi Building."

"This is the person I want to talk about. Not long after the magic weapon fell into his hands, he was suddenly replaced by a monk at the alchemy stage next to him, and he seemed to offer a higher price. More critical Unfortunately, the rare material also fell into the hands of the latter."

"There is such a thing!" The man in the brocade robe looked slightly surprised. He was only focused on hosting the auction before, but he really didn't notice this. After thinking about it, he asked again.
"That thing, you don't really miss it, do you?"

"I'm not sure, but I always feel that there is something strange in it."

"It's also easy, as long as you call Liu Yuan over and ask, everything will naturally come to light."

"I'm afraid it's not that simple." The silver-haired old man shook his head slightly, and said again,

"You can send someone to find that Liu Yuan, I hope I'm overthinking."

The brocade robed man nodded, immediately summoned his subordinates, and told them to go to the valley to find someone.

He didn't wait for too long, but after about fifteen minutes, the subordinate returned and brought back bad news. Liu Yuan fell into a coma for some reason half a month ago, and has yet to wake up under the care of one of his nephews.

"What!" The brocade robed man's complexion suddenly changed, and he waved his hand to make him retreat, and then said solemnly,
"It seems that you always guessed right. There is indeed some ulterior conspiracy in it. Even my wishful building may be a chess piece used by the other party."

"You don't need to worry too much. We are not easy to provoke when soldiers come to cover up water and earth." The silver-haired old man snorted coldly and continued,
"How about this, the old man will go to see the situation of Liu Yuan himself, maybe he can find other things."

"Please be old..."

……

Half a month later, the Qiling Mountains.

In a certain cave in the southern area, there was an old man with a dove face in a green robe sitting cross-legged and closing his eyes, practicing.Surrounded by bursts of cyan aura, it is obviously at a critical time.

After a while, his hands suddenly lifted up to pinch a mysterious formula, and the pervasive cyan aura suddenly spun rapidly, and finally sank into his body like a hundred rivers returning to the sea.

While slowly closing in, but at this moment, as if he suddenly sensed something, his eyes suddenly opened.Raise the arm again and make a light move towards a certain direction, a burst of flames shot in, and the next moment it was directly absorbed into the palm of the hand.

This retreat is intended to practice a secret technique, and I have already ordered it not to be disturbed.As his most trusted son, he knew this very well, but now he suddenly sent a messenger talisman, could it be something urgent?

Looking at the talisman in his hand, his spiritual sense immediately penetrated into it.There is not much content, and I have finished reading it in a blink of an eye.At this time, a strange look appeared on his face.

"Mysterious magic weapon? What could it be?" the dove-faced old man whispered, with some interest in his heart.It happened that the secret technique had just been practiced, and it was time for him to leave the level, and then he got up and walked out of the secret room.

After a while, he walked to the front hall, and happened to see a familiar figure standing there respectfully. The moment he saw him, the other party smiled and saluted respectfully:

"Did you bother you if you rushed to send a message to your father?"

"It doesn't matter, the secret art of being a father has just been practiced!" Walking to the main seat, Gu Shuangpu didn't talk nonsense, and immediately asked,
"Tell me, what is going on? And what is the mysterious magic weapon you mentioned?"

"Congratulations, father, for your great achievement!" Gu Yushan saluted again without any hesitation, and a purple light flashed in his hand, revealing a fist-sized purple bead, and then respectfully handed it over to him:

"This is it. It's a coincidence. I got it by accident when I went out to search for a rare material. Although I can't see anything, I always feel that this bead is not simple, or my father can see it."

"Really?" After taking the Zizhu, Gu Shuangpu looked it over carefully.After all, it was a monk in the Nascent Soul Stage, and soon discovered a clue, then smiled and said,

"This bead does have some tricks. It contains a wonderful ancient prohibition, which is extremely concealed. Unless the spiritual consciousness reaches the level of a strong Nascent Soul Stage, it is absolutely impossible to discover it."

"Ancient prohibition! That's how it is!" Gu Yushan suddenly revealed a look of surprise, and even muttered to himself,

"I said that I couldn't see anything before, and it turned out to be the reason. In this way, this thing is really not simple."

"Jane is not simple, you have to look at it to know." Gu Shuangpu did not hesitate. While speaking, the purple bead in his hand was slowly floating, and his expression was straightened, his hands began to pinch rapidly, and unknown seals were continuously entered. in.

At the beginning, there was no change in the purple beads, but as more and more seals were absorbed, when it suddenly reached a certain critical point, there was a slight shock for an instant, and then the purple awns burst into bloom.

Seeing this, the movement of his hands also stopped, and his huge spiritual consciousness was released to penetrate into the inside of the purple bead, as if he was observing something.Until a moment later, when he withdrew his consciousness, his face had already become extremely pleasantly surprised.

"Is there really something inside?" Gu Yushan also showed surprise, and asked curiously.

"That's right, it was a surprise." Gu Shuangpu couldn't suppress the joy in his heart, and laughed.Immediately after a burst of cyan spiritual power shot out, the purple awn above the purple bead changed for a while, vaguely condensing into an illusory map, which was blurry at first, but soon became clearer and clearer.

"This is..." The moment Gu Yushan saw the map, he was taken aback for a moment, and then said ecstatically,

"Is this the ancient ruins?"

"Nine out of ten." Gu Shuangpu nodded, but her expression became serious again.
"Let's talk about it again, how did you get this thing?"

"Father, don't worry, there is absolutely no problem with the origin of this thing..." Gu Yushan understood what the other party was worried about, and immediately began to tell everything that happened in Liyang Valley before.

Gu Shuangpu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it was obtained from a small secret shop, and it was still at the price of a top-level magic weapon.However, he still did not relax his vigilance.

"So, you didn't buy this thing on your own initiative, but it was exchanged from a foundation-building monk?"

"That's right, and if it wasn't really boring and my heart was moved for a while, I wouldn't have exchanged ideas." Gu Yushan nodded. In fact, on the way back, he also observed this purple bead again. The special feeling didn't appear again, so it was just a whim.

As for Zizhu, even though he no longer had that feeling, he still thought it would not be easy, so he was relieved to let his father take a look at it.Sure enough, his persistence was right, and he really made a discovery.

"If that's the case, then there should be nothing wrong with this thing." Until now, Gu Shuangpu felt a little relieved, and then began to think about the treasure hunt. It is obvious that it is not enough to have a map, but to find a place.

This is a map left over from ancient times. After going through vicissitudes, it has become completely unrecognizable compared to today. It is not easy to find the exact location.

As he expected, although the map was detailed, it was extremely unfamiliar.Moreover, the area of ​​Tiannan is not small, and the geographical environment is even more complicated. It is extremely difficult to find out the answer in a short time.

He is not worried about this. After all, Zongmen has detailed map information of all the countries in Tiannan, and he can compare it at will, even the information of Mulan Grassland is also available.

He still doesn't believe it, as long as he spends enough time, he won't be able to find it?

In fact, the search process was much smoother than he had imagined. After only observing for a moment, he suddenly noticed a special area on the map, which turned out to be a place he knew.

"Yuanwu Kingdom, Panlong River!" Gu Shuangpu compared them again, and the more they looked at them, the more they felt the same. Although the directions of this river and Panlong River were slightly different, the overall outlines were very similar.

Once this is confirmed, it will be much easier to find the specific location of the ruins.Of course, it is not easy to do it on this map, you must do a field survey in person.

"Pack up, we're leaving tomorrow."

"So urgent?" Gu Yushan was a little surprised, but saw his father put away the purple beads and explained,
"In half a year's time, it will be the succession ceremony of senior brother Dongmen. As his father, as the person he trusts most, naturally he can't miss it. Just take advantage of this spare time to go to Yuanwu Kingdom, and return as soon as possible after exploring the ruins earlier. .”

"Senior Uncle Dongmen succeeds as Great Elder. With the relationship between the two of you, father's status within the sect will also increase. My son congratulates you in advance." Mentioning this matter, Gu Yushan immediately showed joy.

"It is indeed a gratifying thing, but don't get carried away too much, don't forget our identities." Gu Shuangpu also showed joy, but did not let down his vigilance.

"Father's words are true. It's the boy Meng Lang." The other party's reminder was like pouring cold water, and Gu Yushan woke up instantly.

"Just figure it out, but you must remember that even if you don't have a reason for your identity, if you want to live longer in the practice world, you must always be cautious no matter when and where, otherwise you will lose everything if you are negligent." For some reason, Gu Shuangpu suddenly had a whim today and wanted to seriously mention his only son.

Seeing the obedient look on the other side's face, his heart suddenly softened. Because of his own reasons, he had to follow the 'fear', and it was indeed a bit embarrassing for the other party.

He suddenly thought of Gu Yushan's mother, his Taoist companion, a strange woman with beautiful looks, gentle personality, and extremely intelligent.

In his capacity, he didn't intend to marry a wife and have children. After all, one more person would bring more burdens, and there would be uncertain risks.

Unexpectedly, fate is always impermanent, and marriages are all predetermined. The moment he saw the other party, he couldn't help being moved. After some pursuit, he finally got what he wanted, and formed a Taoist couple with the other party.

Before meeting his wife, he was lonely in his heart and had no one to trust.After meeting the other party, everything changed. It seemed that his heart, which had been wandering for many years, had found a harbor, which made him feel unprecedented peace and happiness.

The two spent an unforgettable time together, but it is a pity that everything in the world is always so short.

Because of her poor aptitude, her wife made a mistake during a certain retreat, causing her to go mad and destroy her foundation.

Although he saved his life, he will no longer be able to practice in the future.How cruel such a blow was to a monk, he still didn't persist for too long after all, leaving the two father and son dead.

At that moment, he felt lonely and helpless again in his heart, as if there was no color in the world.And the exhortation of his wife when she was dying, also made him unforgettable in this life.

As the person next to him, it turned out that the other party had already known his identity through the details of his life, but he had never brought it up, or even informed him.

In the words of the other party, since you marry him in this life, you will not regret it. Even if there is an abyss ahead, as a wife, she will jump down together.

Unfortunately, she couldn't stay with him any longer, so she had to take a step first.

Naturally, she was worried about the father and son, especially Gu Yushan, and asked him to take good care of each other.

Thinking of this, when he looked at the only son in front of him again, his eyes became softer.
