The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 194: The Wonder of Escape, the Identification of the Galaxy

Ye Ruoqing waded through the river, taking one deep step and one shallow step, and came to the broken bridge.

No one knew who built the stone bridge. Now it was broken and overgrown with weeds. Ye Ruoqing was barely level with the broken bridge.

"Brother Xinghe."

The stars faded away, and the broken bridge and flowing water remained. The reflection of the stars still remained in Ye Ruoqing's eyes. She stretched out her white arms and looked at Li Xinghe tenderly and affectionately.

Li Xinghe looked at Ye Ruoqing, seemingly hesitant, yet seemingly not caring at all. After a long moment, he reached out and held Ye Ruoqing's hand.

Ye Ruoqing's face was redder than the sunset, she seemed shy and proud at the same time.

Taking advantage of the strength of one hand, Ye Ruoqing climbed up the broken bridge and threw herself into Li Xinghe's arms.

She rested her chin on Li Xinghe's left shoulder and looked at Lin Bai across the river, blinking her eyes, as if showing off, or saying that you can also find the person you want.

Cross the sand, cross the river, climb the broken bridge, and meet the person you miss.

In this situation, Lin Bai said nothing and just watched with a smile.

From learning martial arts to entering Taoism, Lin Bai experienced many hardships. He loved to see people reunited after a long separation. He was also most willing to help others achieve success.

The Cheng siblings stood behind Lin Bai, looking at the two people hugging each other on the broken bridge, pointing and talking.

"I think we are here to look for opportunities, right?" Cheng Shuang poked Cheng Daojin.

"I wonder if they have anything that can help with love in their storage rings!" Cheng Daojin is worthy of being a brother, he thinks more than his sister.

"That's right." Cheng Shuang actually agreed with her brother's words. She looked at Lin Bai and said very seriously, "Fellow Daoist Yun, Fellow Daoist Zhuanlun, should we avoid him?" When she heard Ye Ruoqing calling him Zhuanlun, she followed him and laughed, "Want to make a bet?"

"What are you betting on?" Before Lin Bai could say anything, Cheng Daojin became interested.

"Let's bet on how long it will take them two!" Cheng Shuang stroked his chin and grinned, looking like a veteran.

Cheng Daojin looked at Ye Ruoqing and Li Xinghe, and was unable to make a judgment for a moment.

Lin Bai had no temper towards the Cheng brothers and sisters. He forced himself to hold back his headache and said, "Although we seek the way to immortality, immortality is ultimately illusory and difficult to achieve. At this time, being able to see the person you love is also a joy in life. How could you two have such unbearable thoughts?"

"Are you envious of others for finding a lover? Or do you not plan to sleep with women in the future?" Cheng Shuang mocked.

Lin Bai thought that he could defeat seven Cheng Shuangs, but he could never defeat her in a mouthful.

The Qiaoshan Sect has Cheng Shuang, Gu Yao, and Yang Bing. It’s time to disband as soon as possible!

"Brother Li!"

Lin Bai walked forward, looked at the man and woman on the broken bridge, and said with a smile: "This place is full of dangers, and meeting each other is a relief. Why not drink a little to express our farewell."

What this means is that you two should just have a drink and don't talk too much, business is more important.

After saying this, he took off the gourd from his waist and threw it over.

Li Xinghe took it, opened the lid and sniffed it, saying: "This wine is full of lovesickness, it must be a gift from a woman."

How can this person have such a keen nose? I won’t give you a drink next time! Lin Bai smiled, “Brother Xinghe is my confidant.”

"Brother Lunzhuan, didn't you say that you had been separated from each other for a long time? How come there is someone missing you now?" Ye Ruoqing asked curiously.

The Cheng brothers and sisters also looked at Lin Bai with curiosity, especially Cheng Shuang, who stroked his chin and looked at the wine gourd, as if thinking about something.

Lin Bai didn't talk to people who didn't know how to behave. He smiled and said, "Let's drink."

Li Xinghe was indeed a carefree man. He looked up at the bright moon and took a few gulps of wine.

Ye Ruoqing also quickly grabbed it and drank a few sips.

"Brother Zhuanlun, come too!" Ye Ruoqing threw the gourd over.

"I'll do it!" Cheng Shuang jumped up, snatched the gourd, and drank several gulps.

"The elders said, drink less and talk less!" Although Cheng Daojin said this, he still snatched the bottle and took a few big gulps.

Finally it was Lin Bai's turn to drink.

The water was gurgling, the moon was in the sky, the stars were shining, and the five of them laughed out loud together.

After climbing up the Broken Bridge, the five of them sat opposite each other. Ye Ruoqing held Li Xinghe's sleeve and asked him about his experience with joy.

Li Xinghe's appearance is not outstanding, and he is just an ordinary person in the crowd, but his temperament is unique, calm and quiet, as if he doesn't care about anything.

In response to Ye Ruoqing's question, Li Xinghe saw that Lin Bai and others were also interested, so he spoke briefly.

It turned out that Li Xinghe was also single after entering the secret realm. Later, he met several people from various sects, and they only told each other their names. Li Xinghe did not travel with others.

Lin Bai felt that Li Xinghe must be a very capable person, and he must have some secrets.

The secret realm has been open for a long time, and Li Xinghe has met many people, but he does not look worldly at all, which shows that he is obviously capable.

And the strange vision just now was upside down, and Li Xinghe was in perfect harmony with the vision, which was extremely magical.

Such people must not be underestimated.

After practicing Taoism for a long time, Lin Bai has seen the golden elixir and interacted with the Nascent Soul. He has come to understand that the path to the Great Dao must rely on one's own experience, enlightenment and thinking, and elixirs are just external objects after all. They may help for a while, but if one wants to climb the Great Dao, the help of external objects is ultimately limited.

Lin Bai vaguely felt that Li Xinghe was probably the person who gained the most from this trip to the secret realm.

When you see someone virtuous, you should try to emulate him. When others see visions, they will gain insights, which cannot be forced. I just hope you can share a little bit and have a sip of the leftovers.

Anyway, the chance is small, and finding the right person is important. Whatever you gain, you must make it public!

"Junior Brother Li," Cheng Shuang also asked curiously, "I just saw you from afar, and I saw that you were responding to the strange vision. May I ask, have you gained any insights? Or, have you seen any clues?"

"Nothing." Li Xinghe immediately denied, but then smiled and said, "Just reviewing the old to learn new things."

What this means is that he did not just realize it, but had already gained it a long time ago.

Comparing yourself to others will only make you feel nauseous. The Cheng siblings and Lin Bai clenched their fists and secretly cursed themselves for being incompetent.

But Ye Ruoqing had an admiring look on her face. She pulled Li Xinghe's sleeve and shook it, saying, "I knew you could do it!"

"May I ask, Brother Li, what are your thoughts on the strange vision? What are your opinions?" Lin Bai didn't expect the other person to say anything. He just asked casually, hoping to get the answer.

"It's just a strange phenomenon of the Milky Way. Why can't I explain it?" Unexpectedly, Li Xinghe did not hide anything and said with a smile: "In my opinion, the Milky Way is also a river. We can compare ourselves to the Milky Way, just as life is like a long river. We can also compare ourselves to the stars in it, like fish swimming in the water."

He raised his hand and pointed to the night sky, and said with a smile: "Stars will eventually fall, and rivers will eventually dry up. What you think and gain is all within yourself."

The Cheng brothers and sisters didn't understand and always felt that they were several levels behind the other party.

To the other side, the changes in the galaxy did not seem surprising, and they treated it as an equal. But everyone else's thoughts were like ants observing the celestial phenomena.

Lin Bai pondered for a moment and said, "Life is as difficult and dangerous as a long river. An old friend of mine once sighed like this. He also used this as a theory of elixir."

Hearing this, Li Xinghe smiled and said, "Since you feel this way, you must have been through a life-or-death situation and experienced many difficulties." He looked at Lin Bai with interest and asked, "How is that person?"

"He attained enlightenment before his death. After obtaining this theory of elixir, people cannot live long." Lin Bai said.

"In that case, your old friend is just a grain of sand in the long river, occasionally stirred up by the waves, and saw a little light, but it is not a long-term thing. There are too many people like this, more than the sand in the river. The long river is surging, never stopping, and the mud and sand are all washed away. We cannot be mud and sand." Li Xinghe glanced at the gourd on Lin Bai's waist, changed the subject, and said with a smile: "Where do you want to go?"

After hearing this, Lin Bai felt that Li Xinghe must have mastered the theory of alchemy long ago, and it was a top-notch theory!

But since the other person didn't seem to want to say more, there was no need to ask any more.

"These two are the Cheng family brother and sister, I believe you know them. They want to find the source of the strange phenomenon, which is the place where the galaxy falls." Lin Bai took off the wine gourd, and took out the wine glass, filled each of them, and then said: "I can go or not. Although the opportunity is there, I don't have the intention to force it. The person who came here is an old friend in the past." Li Xinghe took the wine cup, drank it all, and smiled: "I believe your old friend is also going to the strange phenomenon, so we can be said to have the same destination by different paths."

"Brother Li understands me." Lin Bai smiled.

"Why don't we go together?" Ye Ruoqing was very conscientious in pouring wine for everyone, but his eyes never left Li Xinghe. He just smiled and said, "You have seen this Brother Zhuanlun. In addition to his alchemy skills, he is also good at setting up battle formations."

"He practices alchemy, is proficient in formations, and has a Hunyuan body. He also contains Qi within himself, and his sword intent is restrained. Brother Zhuanlun is no ordinary person." Li Xinghe actually pointed out what Lin Bai had learned in one go.

"Brother Xinghe is not an ordinary person either." Lin Bai was stared at, but he was not ashamed or annoyed. Instead, he offered wine and said, "I hope to have more exchanges with Brother Xinghe in the future so that we can make progress together."

Lin Bai knew very well that there is always someone better than you, so his tone was quite sincere.

This was the second time I met Li Xinghe, and I was afraid that he had seen me the first time. But this person was indifferent and didn't say anything.

"Okay." Li Xinghe nodded slightly. "Desert oasis, Shenshang Galaxy, it is fate that we can meet here." He raised his glass and said with a smile: "Just for this fine wine, I will not hide it."

The Cheng brothers and sisters looked at each other and felt that Li Xinghe's words were too confident. But he was not arrogant at all, nor did he seem to be a teacher, but responded calmly.

This kind of person is either a fool or has real skills.

"Brother Xinghe," Ye Ruoqing pulled Li Xinghe's sleeve and said very seriously, "I was stuck in the sand, and it was Brother Zhuanlun who saved me from danger." Her face flushed slightly, and she said, "We need to repay his kindness."

Li Xinghe looked at Lin Bai.

"She is looking for Brother Xinghe, and I am also looking for someone. It is always more kind to think about others as well as yourself. There is no need to talk about favors. When we get out of here, just treat me to a couple of drinks, that will be enough." Lin Bai smiled.

Li Xinghe nodded slightly.

"Don't say too much!" Cheng Shuang raised his glass, looked at Li Xinghe, and said, "Junior Brother Li, do you want to go with us?"

"If you don't mind, I will follow you." Li Xinghe smiled faintly.

"No one should look down on anyone else!" Cheng Shuang acted like an older sister and said seriously, "But we are not going out for sightseeing, we are going to fight for our lives, so put away your big words for now." She tapped her chest and said, "I am a descendant of the Cheng family, so everyone can trust me. The five of us need to help each other and travel together. I wonder what kind of magic Brother Li knows to have such magical powers?"

Li Xinghe stroked the wine glass, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and said with a smile: "I have been poor since I was young, and I have no good teacher to teach me, let alone friends to make friends with. As for cultivation, I just relied on my heart to explore, but I got nothing. Later, I entered the land of Jianghu, stumbled and struggled, and learned a little bit of escape techniques to save my life."

The magical power of escape can be used for attack or defense! It is either derived from one's own destiny or realized by oneself. It is an extremely profound magical power.

Over the years, the only people Lin Bai knew who had this ability were Sister Zhen, Yue Xixia, Fox and Aunt Gu.

Sister Zhen's ability to escape was accompanied by purple air, but at that time I didn't have enough vision to tell the difference. But now I think back, Sister Zhen's ability to escape is invisible but has traces, and her ability to escape is not that profound, but compared to her peers, she is probably the best.

However, Yue Xixia used the glow of clouds as her escape route, which was not very advanced and could not be used frequently.

Aunt Gu seemed to be using water as a boat, and it was hard to say whether it was a way of escaping. Lin Bai was only at the foundation building stage, and he could not see through the ability of the Nascent Soul at all.

As for the fox, it must have the ability to escape. In addition, the fox's tail hair was used, which clearly showed that it could only be refined by someone who was familiar with space magic, which further showed that the fox was proficient in this art.

And this time Li Xinghe also knows how to escape, and he is not like Qu Ruyi who likes to brag, so he must have real skills.

As for what kind of escape method it was, the other person didn't say, and it was not convenient to ask anymore.

No matter what, Lin Bai thought more highly of Li Xinghe, and thought about building a relationship with him and asking him about his opinions on escape techniques so that he could learn a thing or two from him.

The Cheng brothers and sisters were also surprised. The escape technique was amazing and few people were proficient in it. But the man in front of them was not very conspicuous, but it seemed that he not only had the ability to escape, but also had other tricks up his sleeve.

Ye Ruoqing even leaned her whole body on Li Xinghe's shoulder, her eyes brighter than the full moon.

They discussed it briefly and decided on a method of joint attack.

Cheng Daojin and Ye Ruoqing are in the front. If they encounter the enemy, they can give a warning or confuse the enemy.

Lin Bai and Li Xinghe stayed behind to guard against pursuers and unexpected events ahead.

Cheng Shuang is in the middle, taking care of the front and back, and can also defeat the enemy.

"We are in the formation of a long snake. If you hit its head, the tail will come. If you hit its tail, the head will come. If you hit the middle, both the head and the tail will come!" Lin Bai concluded with great satisfaction.

"Haha," Cheng Shuang's old problem came back, and he said in a mean way, "I'm afraid that if you hit its head, the head will collapse, if you hit its tail, the tail will collapse, if you hit its middle, both the head and the tail will collapse!"

Lin Bai has seen people who don't speak human words, and he has seen people who are not human, but he has never seen people who don't speak human words and are not human!

The fox can only say some dirty words to disgust people, but when the direct descendant of the Cheng family gets cruel, even she herself is disgusted!

It must be that there was someone nearby, otherwise Lin Bai would have tied up Cheng Shuang and whipped her thirty times!

Lin Bai had a headache, and felt more and more how rare it was to have a reliable teammate! At this moment, he felt that Gu Feixue's character was precious and reliable!
Others also couldn't stand Cheng Shuang's words. Ye Ruoqing didn't dare to say anything. Cheng Daojin scolded for a long time, and Li Xinghe shook his head and chuckled.

Everyone went forward to look for the place where the strange starry sky fell.

Lin Bai and Li Xinghe were not far away from each other, so he asked again: "Brother Xinghe, I heard you say that you met a lot of people. I wonder whose family they were. Can you tell me in detail?"

"All three sects and their vassals are present." Li Xinghe glanced at Lin Bai and said, "Cheng Nianshi from the Cheng family, Yang Shu from the Yang family, and Chunyu You and Chunyu Che from the Chunyu family. There are also Shang Shizhu and Shang Taolang from the Shang family. There are also a few people from the Yunxia Sect, led by Meng Yuan. As for the people from Jiuyin Mountain, their names have not been reported."

What happened to the people from Jiuyin Mountain? Lin Bai knew that they would not be able to tell him clearly if he asked, so he asked, "Who else?"

Li Xinghe asked back: "Who are you looking for?"

Lin Bai did not hide it and said directly: "I and Fox...the person who made the life contract with Fairy Chen Yu, and her beloved disciple, are all friends with me, and I want to find them both."

At this point, Lin Bai suddenly spoke out, "There is also Pei Ning from the Tianchi Sect, and Qu Ruyi from the Bagua Mountain of the Yunxia Sect."

"Brother Zhuanlun, you and I are truly destined to be together." Li Xinghe said.

"Why do you say that?" Lin Bai was puzzled.

"I love the stars, and you love the women, isn't that the same thing?" Li Xinghe smiled.

"You can learn the Dharma from the stars, but I can only feel sad and tired." Lin Bai smiled bitterly, "Brother Xinghe, please don't joke, I really want to find someone."

"The two people related to Li Chenyu you are talking about are two little girls, right?" Li Xinghe said with a smile.

He actually called the fox by its real name without any hesitation.

"That's right! Have you ever seen Brother Xinghe?" Lin Bai was very happy, thinking that it was true to make more good friends!

"Indeed, they did." Li Xinghe nodded slightly. "That was three days ago. They must have just found each other. They held hands and were very happy. They said a lot of useless words."

"Are they both safe and sound?" Lin Bai was so worried that he asked the question even though he already knew the answer.

"Li Chenyu is not a mean person." Li Xinghe smiled.

What this means is that the sisters Xiuxiu and Xiaohuang are fine, and that the fox did give them a secret treasure.

But Li Xinghe was so confident, as if he knew that vixen very well.

Moreover, Lin Bai also agreed with what Li Xinghe said. The fox was mean and vicious in words, but he was not stingy in his actions. He could barely be considered talented but not virtuous.

"What did they talk about?" Lin Bai felt relieved.

"Most of them are useless words." Li Xinghe smiled, as if he was thinking of the scene that day. "The girl is bright and beautiful. Even if she is precocious, her mind is cleaner than a mountain stream. She is just a little noisy."

So you think they talk too much! How much did you hear? Lin Bai couldn't help laughing and said, "It's actually a joy in life to be able to talk to friends about useless things."

Li Xinghe looked forward and saw Ye Ruoqing looking back, so he nodded slightly.

The people followed one after another, passing through the forest and the butterflies. The bright moon in the sky was exceptionally full.
