Chapter 374 Junior Brother is using his waist to exchange for magic weapon again (21)
The situation is exactly the same as in the previous life.
The last time they came out of the cave after the sandstorm ended and were about to continue on their way, they suddenly discovered that the ancient city had split into two, one still in front of them and the other behind them in the direction they were coming from.
The disciples had a disagreement on whether to continue moving forward or to go back.
Some people feel that they have come such a long way and should not give up halfway.
Xu Luo Realm often tests the character of its disciples. The appearance of two ancient cities is definitely intended to test their determination to persevere.
The purpose is to make them understand that even if they have walked for a long time and the goal still seems very far away, they should not back down.
Others, however, feel that the ancient city would not appear for no reason.
After the sandstorm ended, another ancient city suddenly appeared. In fact, it was to explain to everyone why they had walked so far before but still could not get close to the ancient city.
That's because it is a mirage, and the real ancient city is actually behind them.
Neither side could convince the other, so everyone split into two factions and planned to head in two opposite directions.
In his previous life, Xiang Wenshan had originally planned to continue moving forward.
The philosophy he adheres to is that cultivating immortals is also a distant and long journey, and one must not be tempted and must remain firm in one's original intention in order to achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven.
All of Elder Haoran's disciples followed his lead, except Xing, who remained silent and did not follow them when they left.
Yan Qianqian accidentally looked back and saw him turning around and walking back. She subconsciously called out to him, "Ji Xingchen, where are you going?"
Hearing this shout, Xiang Wenshan and the others all stopped and looked at him.
Maybe it was because he made the right choice three days ago and found the cave in advance, so other people did not sneer at his choice directly as they did before.
At that time, he just calmly replied: "I just think that if you take the wrong road, you should turn back in time."
This sentence probably sounded like a bolt of lightning to the ears of the other disciples.
Things were originally that simple, just like finding a place to rest when you are tired, or finding a place to hide when a sandstorm comes.
They gave too much meaning to the process, and then pursued the so-called goal too stubbornly. After making various trade-offs, they forgot the true nature of things.
Ji Xingchen at that moment was probably the most authentic portrayal of returning to nature.
He didn't need to say a single extra word. Xiang Wenshan just found an excuse and led everyone back the way they came. In the end, they successfully entered the ancient city and found the sword tomb.
Xing Chen didn't plan to remind them this time. He pretended that sand got into his shoes, sat on a stone by the roadside, and slowly took off his shoes to pour out the sand.
He shook his shoes over and over again, as if the sand would never end. At the same time, he watched Xiang Wenshan and the others walking further and further ahead out of the corner of his eye.
"Xingchen, which way are we going?" Xuan Luo sat beside him and waited calmly.
Xingchen put on his shoes slowly and said, "Let's go back."
"Okay." Xuan Luo stood up with him.
Xing Chen looked at him in surprise, "Brother, why don't you ask why?"
"I can't help it," Xuan Luo teased him deliberately, "When I think about the fact that we have slept in the same bed for three days, I want to listen to you in everything."
“……” Please don’t, I’m scared.
"What's your expression?"
Xing Chen stared at him blankly, "Well, I just want to ask, are there any pretty girls in the alchemy room?"
Brother, your sleeves must not be broken.
Xuan Luo shook his head. "Where can you find pretty girls in a place that is full of smoke and fire every day?"
Xing Chen felt a little disappointed.
He added, "There aren't even any good-looking boys."
Xing Chen: “…”
Okay, it's even cooler.
Xing Chen looked away sadly, feeling a little confused. Why couldn't he hate him at all?
I am a married man and I like Xuan Luo to death, so why is this other person saying such ambiguous words when instead of thinking about staying away from him as soon as possible?
I always feel that he and Xuan Luo have the same familiar feeling, and I want to get close to them and depend on them.
Is it...
Am I a scumbag who falls in love with every girl I meet?
Back off, back off, you are playing both sides, God will strike you with lightning!
Xing Chen put aside the messy thoughts in his head and returned to the original question.
"Brother, what if I make the wrong choice?"
Xuan Luo looked relieved, "Then I can take you back to the alchemy room to eat sugar pills earlier."
This sentence has the same destructive effect on Xing Chen as taking you home to meet your parents earlier.
"No, Senior Brother," Xing Chen refused as he walked forward, "I suddenly found that I have a toothache. I have to be careful in the future and can't eat sweets."
"That's okay. I'll take you back to see Master."
Xing Chen thought it was better to give up.
Now there is a person who not only wants to teach him how to practice in bed, but also wants to teach him how to practice outside the bed. Without his consent, he wants to be his master.
It’s better not to bring in one more person to snatch it. The relationship is quite complicated now.
"Brother, I'm actually doing pretty well under Elder Haoran. Everyone is taking good care of me. The ridicule you see from them is just superficial. Behind the scenes, everyone is actually pretty nice."
As if to prove that what he said was true, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded behind him.
When the two turned around, they saw Xiang Wenshan and the others hurriedly running back towards them.
Xing Chen frowned, wondering why he turned back so quickly?
If they go far enough and get caught in the mirage, they won't be able to turn back, and they'll be eliminated.
Now that they are back, it only means that they have not gone far before returning.
Is it possible that even without me, they would find the right path quickly?
Xing Chen couldn't help but ask them, "Why are you going back?"
Wei Canyang sneered, "You don't want us to be well, do you? Do you want the entire Cangwu Peak to be wiped out in this assessment?"
Xing Chen rolled his eyes at him and said, "If we are going to be annihilated, it will be you. I am also a member of Cangwu Peak. As long as I am here, the whole army will not be annihilated."
Wei Canyang clapped his hands, "I let it slip, Junior Sister is right, since he can get Elder Cangming's talisman, he can get Elder Cangming's information!"
Xing Chen: "What news?"
"Still pretending. If you don't know the correct path, how can you be so sure that the path you are taking is the right one?"
Wei Canyang finished speaking proudly and turned his gaze to Xuan Luo, "Hey, the alchemist, tell me, did Elder Cangming tell you in advance what you would experience in the Xuluo Realm, so you found the cave in advance?"
