Chapter 280 Why Bow Your Head
"Senior, why are you here?"

Zhang Xiaofan looked at Lu Fengqiu who fell gently from the bamboo leaves above, his eyes were full of surprise, and he couldn't even speak fluently.

Seeing Lu Fengqiu for the first time in Kongsang Mountain, Zhang Xiaofan was shocked by Lu Fengqiu's super strength.

Those ghost bats that sucked human blood made them extremely embarrassed, but in the hands of this senior, they were killed within a few breaths.

People worship the strong.

Zhang Xiaofan is no exception.

Besides, the reason why the group of them were able to do things smoothly in the Ten Thousand Bat Ghost Cave at the beginning probably had a lot to do with this senior.

Zhang Xiaofan has always been curious about what kind of person this senior is.

But he didn't expect to see this senior appear in Qingyun Mountain and Dazhufeng tonight.

Lu Xiaohua walked towards Lu Fengqiu.

Baguio watched Lu Fengqiu appear with a slightly nervous expression.

Lu Fengqiu's gaze first fell on Zhang Xiaofan, and then glanced at Bi Yao.

This glance shocked Baguio, and she defended secretly.

In her heart, she already had [-]% to [-]% certainty that Lu Fengqiu in front of her was a member of Qingyun Sect.

However, just when Baguio was about to sacrifice the acacia bell on his waist.

However, Lu Fengqiu flew directly to sit on Lu Xiaohua's back, and patted Lu Xiaohua's back. After a few ups and downs, there was no trace of a person or a deer.

Only a sentence left by Lu Fengqiu echoed in the forest.

"Thousands of spells, all kinds of good fortune, the word of Tao comes first, and the three thousand ways lead to the same goal. Just ask one question, can you live forever?"

Deep in the bamboo forest, the night wind blows.

Zhang Xiaofan and Baguio looked at each other, looking at each other in blank dismay.

Both Zhang Xiaofan and Baguio showed shock in their eyes.

"It's the sentence at the end of the Heavenly Book in the Dripping Blood Cave"

"Could it be that this senior left the writing in the blood-dropping hole?"

Zhang Xiaofan muttered.

Hearing this, Baguio shook her head and said, "The last line of the scripture in the Dripping Blood Cave was obviously inscribed by a queen. Could it be that this Taoist is that Qingyunzi?"

Zhang Xiaofan was stunned.

"Qingyunzi, does this senior call him Qingyunzi?"

"It's exactly the same as the Taoist name of the founder of my Qingyunmen sect."

Previously, when Zhang Xiaofan and Bi Yao saw that day's book on the stone wall in the Dripping Blood Cave, they also analyzed the last line of writing on the wall.

It was clearly written on it that Qingyunzi stayed, and the two of them had some doubts about who Qingyunzi was.

Now, the truth has surfaced.

Zhang Xiaofan looked at the bamboo grove that was no longer inhabited, and murmured: "Thousands of spells, all kinds of good fortune, the word Tao comes first, three thousand ways, all lead to the same goal, just ask one question, can you get longevity?"

"Could this senior be deliberately reminding me of something?

Zhang Xiaofan was full of doubts, did this senior know that he and Baguio had seen the heavenly book?

Or that the senior left the words just for himself to see.

Zhang Xiaofan was startled suddenly by the thought that popped up in his mind.

Immediately, he threw this thought out of his mind, but carefully chewed the sentence, "There are three thousand roads, but the same goal by different routes, just ask one question, whether you can live forever."

"Is it possible to live forever?"

Zhang Xiaofan showed confusion on his face.

He recalled the scene when he saw the book that day in the stone chamber of the Blood Dropping Cave.

That is known as the classic "Book of Heaven" of the Devil's Cult.

In Zhang Xiaofan's eyes, that paragraph of text called "General Outline of the Book of Heaven" almost pierced into the bottom of his heart like a knife.

Compared with when he was young, when he found out that Qingyunmen Taoist cultivation method was completely opposite to the Buddhist "Dafan Prajna" cultivation method passed on to him by Puzhi, the shock to him was a hundred times greater.

From that paragraph of text, he unexpectedly discovered that the Taoism and Buddhism, which he had secretly thought since he was a child, are fundamentally different ways of cultivating the truth.

Even so, even though he was surprised, he could still accept it, but after reading the whole story, his face was already extremely pale.

It's because he discovered a big secret in the "Book of Heaven", which is known as the classic of the Demon Cult.

All kinds of supernatural powers and strange methods in the Devil's Cult are extreme and peculiar, but the root is in the "Book of Heaven".

Taoism pays attention to controlling nature, Buddhism focuses on understanding self-nature, but in the heavenly scriptures, it seems to cover everything, including both Taoist thought and Buddhist supernatural powers.

Zhang Xiaofan is well versed in the true teachings of Taoism and Buddhism, this discovery makes him feel that this matter is very scary.

From that day on, there was a thought in his mind that lingered in his mind, almost unconsciously thinking of it every night.

That is, what is right?
Is there a clear distinction between Tao, Buddha, and demons, or is there me in you and you in me.

These days, Zhang Xiaofan always feels that a big secret is right in front of his eyes, but he can't touch it or see it.

But that secret is attracting him all the time.

However, in his heart, there is also a bit of fear.

That is, should he seek this secret, this truth?

Until just now, he heard the words of the senior.

"Thousands of spells, all kinds of good fortune, the word of Tao comes first, and the three thousand ways lead to the same goal. Just ask one question, can you live forever?"

"Could that senior mean that whether it's Dao, Buddha, or demon, they all lead to the same goal by different routes. Just ask that one sentence, whether you can live forever."

In Zhang Xiaofan's mind at this moment, there was a huge shock.

It seemed that in the extremely hazy sky, a ray of light suddenly shot in, gradually dispelling the haze.

"Is senior trying to wake me up?"

Zhang Xiaofan felt a little unbelievable, and when he thought about it carefully, he felt extremely frightened.

If that senior is really trying to wake him up.

Does that mean that the biggest secret he keeps in his heart has been known by that senior.

However, he was completely stranger to that senior, and had never met.

How did that senior know his secret.

You know, no matter how many twists and turns he endured, he never thought of breaking the original promise.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaofan's heart was completely confused.

……

Looking at the direction in which Lu Fengqiu disappeared, Baguio secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart was full of doubts.

The Taoist left an inexplicable sentence and left right away?
If this Taoist is from the Qingyun Sect, it shouldn't be like this
"Three thousand roads lead to the same goal."

Baguio can't quite understand the meaning of this sentence.

Baguio subconsciously said to Zhang Xiaofan who was beside him: "Xiaofan, have you really never seen this Taoist in Qingyunmen?"

There was silence in the bamboo forest.

Baguio found that Zhang Xiaofan hadn't spoken for a long time, so he turned to look at Zhang Xiaofan at the side.

I saw Zhang Xiaofan standing there blankly, as if he was stupid.

Seeing this, Baguio immediately waved her hands and waved them in front of Zhang Xiaofan's eyelids.

Zhang Xiaofan came back to his senses just now after being shaken by Bi Yao.

"Xiao Fan? Xiao Fan?"

"What's wrong with you? Are you all right?"

Baguio looked at Zhang Xiaofan with some doubts.

Zhang Xiaofan's mind was still echoing the phrase "Is it possible to live forever", and he replied in a daze: "Oh~~~ I'm fine."

Hearing this, Baguio nodded slightly and said, "You scared me to death, you idiot, I thought you were scared stupid by that Taoist."

"Let me ask you, have you really never seen that Taoist in Qingyunmen before?"

Zhang Xiaofan scratched his head, then said: "Biyao, I really haven't seen this senior in Qingyun Sect before."

Hearing this, Baguio muttered, "That's strange, could it be that he sneaked in like me?"

Baguio just felt that he couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it and said directly to Zhang Xiaofan: "Xiaofan, are you really not going with me?"

"If you stay in Qingyunmen, with those old-fashioned tempers, I'm afraid this time, you will be in danger."

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaofan shook his head very firmly and said: "Baguio, you go, I will not leave Qingyun, this is my home, I was brought up by master and wife, I can't turn my back on them"

"I can't do it if I betray my teacher"

Baguio was angry when he heard the words, but he had nothing to do with Zhang Xiaofan.

"You idiot, your master punishes and scolds you all day long, and you still think of him!"

"If you say you're an idiot, you really are an idiot!"

When Zhang Xiaofan heard this, he just smiled lightly.

Under the moonlight, in the depths of the bamboo forest, the voices of Zhang Xiaofan and Bi Yao gradually disappeared, and everything returned to calm.

The night is coming to an end, and the dawn is coming.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Qingyun Mountain, Tongtian Peak.

Lu Fengqiu sat in the guest house, waiting quietly.

Lu Xiaohua was eating breakfast beside her.

It was delivered early in the morning by the disciples of Qing Yun Sect.

Lu Fengqiu has been bigu these few days, and Lu Xiaohua devours it all.

After finishing the meal, a monk from Tianyin Temple came to invite Lu Fengqiu.

Then Lu Fengqiu followed the monks from Tianyin Temple to the Yuqing Hall in Tongtian Peak.

This night may be an extremely long night for some people in Qing Yunmen.

……

Tongtian Peak, in Yuqing Palace.

When Lu Fengqiu and everyone from Tianyin Temple came to the hall, there were already many people waiting in the hall.

As soon as Lu Fengqiu entered the hall, he found that there were a few extra chairs in the hall today.

Reverend Daoxuan, head teacher of Qingyun sect, seems to have been waiting for some time.

When he saw everyone from Tianyin Temple entering the main hall, he stood up and greeted Monk Puhong politely.

He and Monk Puhong introduced a new face.

Listening to the conversation between Daoxuan and Puhong, that person is Shangguan Ce from Fenxiang Valley.

Lu Fengqiu listened, and from the corner of his eye, he glanced at the so-called Shangguan Ce, and said to himself, "This impostor from the Demon Cult really came."

As he expected, Taoist Cangsong will not easily give up such a great opportunity today.

Today, Lu Fengqiu did not take the initiative to take the first seat on the left, but asked Puhong and Pukong to take their seats first, and then he sat down.

It's not that he is being modest, the main reason is that he feels that he is not in a hurry to get on stage in today's big show.

Because Lu Fengqiu took the initiative to give up his seat, Monk Pukong gave Lu Fengqiu a rare salute.

Lu Fengqiu stayed in Tianyin Temple for more than half a month, and made friends with Monk Puhong.

Because Monk Pukong was subdued by Lu Fengqiu with one trick, he has always been honest with Lu Fengqiu.

Today, because Lu Fengqiu took the initiative to give up his seat, Pu Kong was quite polite to Lu Fengqiu.

Daoxuan at the top seemed to be deliberately ignoring Lu Fengqiu.

Lu Fengqiu didn't care, instead he looked at the six heads of the Qingyun sect opposite.

The first of the seven veins of Qingyunmen.

Except Nagato Tongtian Peak Daoxuan.

The rest are the first Cangsong Taoist on Longshou Peak, the first Tian Buyi on Dazhu Peak, the first Shuiyue on Xiaozhu Peak, the first Zeng Shuchang on Fenghui Peak, the first Shang Zhengliang on Chaoyang Peak, and the first Tianyun Taoist on Luoxia Peak.

These people are the top fighters of the Qingyun Sect. Unfortunately, today's Qingyun Sect is destined to have some irreparable things happen.

……

When Lu Fengqiu's eyes fell on Taoist Cangsong, Taoist Cangsong was expressionless, as if he didn't know that Lu Fengqiu was looking at him.

But Taoist Cangsong's two hands lying flat on his legs moved slightly.

Lu Fengqiu smiled slightly, closed his eyes, and began to rest his eyes.

……

In the main hall, light smoke from incense candles curled up.

After about half a stick of incense passed, four figures walked in.

The leader is Tongtian Peak disciple Chang Jian, followed by Zhang Xiaofan, followed by Song Daren and Tian Linger from Big Bamboo Peak.

"Master, Junior Brother Zhang from Dazhu Peak has arrived."

Chang Jian led Song Daren, Zhang Xiaofan and Tian Ling'er into the main hall, and saluted Daoxuan Daoxuan at the top.

For a moment, in the hall, the eyes of many people all fell on these four people.

Sitting next to Tian Buyi is Tian Buyi's wife, Suru.

I only heard Na Suru say: "You all stand over here."

At this moment, Taoist Cangsong coughed expressionlessly.

Tian Buyi said coldly: "Lao Qi, you stand there, the head master and seniors have something to ask you."

Zhang Xiaofan immediately stood in the center of the hall, in the center of the hall, he was the only one left standing there alone.

Zhang Xiaofan seemed a little nervous, under so many gazes, he clenched his fists tightly.

However, at this moment, he saw Lu Fengqiu sitting in the hall with his eyes closed and meditating.

For some reason, perhaps because of his curiosity about Lu Fengqiu, most of Zhang Xiaofan's fear and tension disappeared in an instant.

At this moment, Daoxuan Master Daoxuan said slowly: "Zhang Xiaofan!"

Zhang Xiaofan heard the words, slowly knelt in the middle of the hall, said: "The disciple is here!"

Reverend Daoxuan looked at Zhang Xiaofan, said very calmly: "These seniors in the hall are all masters in my righteous way, and they are here for you today."

"This is the Godly Monk Puhong who is the presiding officer of Tianyin Temple. Sitting next to him is Master Pukong, the godmonk of Tianyin Temple, and the Shangguan of Fenxiang Valley."

Reverend Daoxuan couldn't lose his etiquette, so he naturally wanted to introduce all the famous people in the hall, but he didn't know if it was intentional or a coincidence.

Master Daoxuan introduced everyone, but he did not introduce Lu Fengqiu.

Lu Fengqiu turned a deaf ear and kept his eyes closed.

There was no expression on Puhong's face, and he looked very solemn.

Zhang Xiaofan, who was kneeling in the hall, originally only wanted to hear how Lu Fengqiu was called, but he never wanted to hear it until the end, and he didn't hear Daoxuan Daoxuan introduce Lu Fengqiu.

Zhang Xiaofan couldn't help thinking in his heart: "The master teacher didn't introduce that senior, could it be that that senior is really an elder of my Qingyun sect?"

Naturally Zhang Xiaofan didn't dare to ask Daoxuan Daoxuan a question, just thinking silently in his heart.

Above the main hall, Master Daoxuan's voice stopped at some point.

All eyes were on Zhang Xiaofan who was kneeling on the ground.

Zhang Xiaofan lowered his head slowly, he didn't know what he was thinking.

At this moment, a voice rang in Zhang Xiaofan's ear.

"Raise your head and take a good look at the people in this hall."

When Zhang Xiaofan heard it, he was startled, subconsciously raised his head, and looked around blankly.

Zhang Xiaofan's strange behavior made the Daoxuan Master above him frown slightly, only to hear Daoxuan Master say: "Zhang Xiaofan, now I want to ask you a few things, you must answer honestly!"

Although Zhang Xiaofan was still wondering who was talking just now, he still replied first: "Yes!"

At this moment, Lu Fengqiu slowly opened his eyes.

In the hall, Daoxuan began to question Zhang Xiaofan.

Zhang Xiaofan admitted that he possessed the true Dafan Prajna Dharma, and also admitted that there was a demon's blood-eating orb in the burning stick.

For a moment, there was an uproar in the hall, almost everyone was staring at Zhang Xiaofan.

Monk Puhong who was sitting on the side shook his head slightly.

Lu Fengqiu looked at Zhang Xiaofan's body trembling slightly as he lowered his head again, and whispered slowly: "Raise your head, manly man, if you can sit upright, even if you kneel, you must kneel upright."

"If you are not wrong, why bow your head!"

Lu Fengqiu's voice only fell into Zhang Xiaofan's ears.

The next moment, Zhang Xiaofan slowly raised his head, subconsciously looking at Lu Fengqiu.

Lu Fengqiu slightly nodded towards Zhang Xiaofan.

Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, it was really the senior who was talking to him
"If I'm not wrong, why should I bow my head!"

"But... am I wrong?"

Zhang Xiaofan's heart fell into the battle between heaven and man.

Zhang Xiaofan's sluggish expression made the people in the hall think that Zhang Xiaofan was frightened.
