The Non-Existent Monk
Chapter 227 The Non-Existent Monk
Soon, Jiangnan was approaching the central area of the city.
Judging from the layout of Zhusheng City in the information given by the Venerable Master Shifang mentioned earlier.
The place that Daxia and Jianlu agreed upon was a huge square located at the lower south gate of the Zhusheng Pagoda.
It is said that it was the venue used by the followers of the immortals to hold banquets.
Very spacious, very bright.
It must be precisely because of this that they chose that place as the meeting place.
It can be seen through at a glance, and it is also to guard against sneak attacks by villains.
Through the vast aura, Jiangnan stepped up the gray stone steps full of time, and finally came to the South Gate Square.
At a glance, the aura here is much thinner than that in the city.
But the complicated Tao that is entangled in the void can be seen everywhere.
On the square, figures crossed their legs, sitting quietly and comprehending.
Some of the younger generation still bear scars.
It was on the way here that he was attacked and killed by the ancient Tianjiao.
And the people who were immersed in the practice and comprehension also left a trace of spirituality to guard against accidents.
So when Jiangnan stepped into the square, most people felt something and opened their eyes.
After seeing Jiangnan, many people nodded their heads in greeting, and then sank into practice.
Jiangnan passed through the crowd and came to the place where Daxia and Jianlu gathered.
A familiar figure came into view.
Mo Yizhen, Sixth Elder, Li Xiang, Xu Tian, Feng Hanqing, Li Yuan, Qiu Shuya...
They all sat cross-legged on the ground, earnestly comprehending.
But what surprised Jiangnan was that Master Hong Lu from Jinguang Temple was also in this camp...
As soon as he arrived, everyone opened their eyes and greeted him one after another.
Jiang Nan also responded with his hand.
"Jiantou, you should be the first to enter this city, why are you here now?"
The Sixth Elder finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Jiangnan's figure.
Although he didn't think that any accidents would happen to Jiangnan, but he didn't see him join the crowd, but there was always a stone in his heart that couldn't fall down.
Facing Jian Yizhen's somewhat reproachful tone, Jiang Nan also knew that he cared about him, so he smiled embarrassingly,
"Sixth Elder, I made you worry, and I also made everyone worry."
"That's all, since King Zhenxi is here, everyone should take the time to comprehend it."
Li Xiang also said, "Now we don't know how long Qixiu Mountain will last this time."
Generally speaking, once Qixiu Mountain opened in the past, it would last for seven days.
Of course, there are also cases of three days and five days, but they are relatively rare.
Therefore, everyone does not know how long this rich Taoism will last for them to comprehend.
When Li Xiang opened his mouth, everyone nodded and closed their eyes again.
Jian Yizhen gave Jiangnan a place and motioned him to sit down.
Jiang Nan was not polite, but after he sat down, he did not close his eyes and ponder.
Instead, he looked at Jian Yizhen, "Sixth Elder, let me spare you a little time, I have some questions to ask you."
Jian Yizhen frowned, but showed no signs of impatience, "Just ask."
Jiang Nan nodded, and then pointed to the towering Zhusheng Pagoda behind everyone, "Sixth Elder, I heard that you have been in Zhusheng City once before, so I want to ask if you know what is going on in this Zhusheng Pagoda?"
Jian Yizhen was stunned for a long while, with a little confusion in his eyes, before saying,
"The head of the sword, the Zhusheng Pagoda is the central hub of Zhusheng City, and it is also the foundation for controlling the entire city."
"Zhusheng Pagoda is divided into nine floors, and the bottom eight floors are secret warehouses, military workshops, medicine halls, etc. There are countless treasures of heaven and earth—of course, there is nothing left now."
"And the ninth floor is rumored to be the place where the immortal lived, hiding the hub that controls the entire Zhusheng City."
"Of course, until now, no one has ever found it."
"All in all, today's Zhusheng Pagoda is like a treasure house that has been emptied—it looks resplendent, but it is actually empty."
The voice of the sixth elder emphasized the last sentence a little bit.
Obviously, he saw Jiangnan's thoughts on Zhushengta, and secretly wanted to persuade him to give up.
After a pause, the Sixth Elder blushed, and said again: "Jiantou, to tell you the truth, when I entered Zhusheng City last time, I was also thinking about the towering tower."
"Then, I wasted time in it for nothing, until Zhusheng City was closed, and I got nothing."
"Old man... I don't want you to go astray."
Between the words, the feelings are sincere.
It can be seen that it is really for the good of Jiangnan.
"Sixth Elder, I understand. Thank you for your kind words." Jiang Nan cupped his hands and spoke seriously.
Jian Yizhen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He heard Jiang Nan say again: "But I still want to go to the tower."
Jian Yizhen: "..."
What you say makes sense but I just don't listen, is that what you mean?
He sighed, pointing at Mantian Taoist Principles, "Jiantou, why do you insist on entering the Tower of All Living Beings? This great opportunity was wasted."
Jiang Nan also looked helpless, with unspeakable suffering.
Not to mention that his purpose is to find Bai Zhu and figure out his plot.
Even if he is here, the Taoism that is all over the sky has no effect on him.
But these cannot be said.
So, he cupped his hands and said, "Sixth Elder, actually... I was looking for someone, and someone saw him go into this tower."
Hearing this, Jian Yi couldn't help being taken aback.
He originally thought that Jiangnan also had unrealistic fantasies about Zhusheng Pagoda.
Unexpectedly, he didn't go there to hunt for treasure, but to find someone?
"Jiantou, who are you... looking for?"
Jiang Nan was silent for a moment before he took out the "Illustrated Records of the Floating World", pointed to the portrait of Bai Zhu on it, "Look for him."
"Before, I met Master Xu Hai on the way here."
"The master told me that this person is heading in the direction of the Zhusheng Pagoda."
"That's why I asked you about the secrets of the Zhusheng Pagoda."
"This matter is more important to me than comprehending the principles of Taoism."
Jiang Nan exhaled a long breath and said.
Although he couldn't say why he was looking for Bai Zhu, what he said just now should be able to dispel Jian Yi's real doubts.
However, Jian Yizhen not only did not understand.
Even his face became extremely serious.
Even when he said this, the people around him looked at him strangely.
Jiang Nan's heart suddenly thumped.
"The head of the sword..."
Jian Yizhen stared into his eyes, "This white candle... the old man has also glanced at it - he is indeed going in the direction of the Zhusheng Pagoda, and he probably intends to enter it to find the ethereal treasure."
After a pause, he said softly, "But the Master Xu Hai you mentioned just now, did not enter this Zhusheng City with me..."
Jiang Nan's face froze.
Slowly put out a question mark.
At this moment, Master Hong Lu, who was meditating with his eyes closed, also slowly opened his eyes, looked in the direction of the two, and opened his mouth slowly.
"Prince Jiang, what Elder Jian said is true."
"Earlier, after you entered Zhusheng City, Xuhai... bah, that wild monk changed his mind after stepping under the altar."
"He said that the endless Taoism in Zhusheng City was useless to him, and then he returned to Qixiu City. Now, he may be sleeping soundly on the belly of some girl."
"So, I'm afraid...it wasn't him that you met in the city."
As soon as he said this, everyone present nodded.
They also saw Monk Xu Hai return to Qixiu New City with their own eyes.
At this time, Jiang Nan only felt his head buzzing and his scalp explode!
An icy chill rose from his back and rushed straight to the back of his head!
If Monk Xu Hai really went to Hong Lu and Arhat said, he never came to Zhusheng City at all.
Then what the hell was the one who talked to him just now?
Today, Qixi Festival, I was dragged to a blind date by my family, and I came back in the afternoon to start coding. Today, I will update three chapters first, and continue tomorrow
