The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 202 Butterfly
The morning breeze is blowing gently.

Song Jingxian woke up slowly, rubbing her eyebrows with one hand and supporting herself on the ground with the other.

He struggled to raise his eyelids and saw another person lying next to him. Judging from his miserable appearance, it must be Meng Bo.

Looking around, they saw a person sitting cross-legged on the cobblestone with his back to the two of them.

The man wore a conical hat, and the mountain breeze blew his dark Taoist robe, making him look like an immortal.

"Mr. Zhuanlun." Song Jingxian sat up, touched her messy hair, and felt her scalp aching again.

Meng Bo also staggered to his feet, the confusion in his eyes still lingering. Although he had escaped from the illusion, he was still confused.

"The world is short as a spring dream, and human nature is thin as autumn clouds. What happened in the dream?" Lin Bai asked with a smile.

Song Jingxian blushed and said, "I'm sorry that you are just talking nonsense, sir."

Meng Bo's face turned red, he lowered his head and gritted his teeth, unable to utter a word.

Lin Bai watched silently, thinking that Senior Sister Meng’s brother was a little too shameless.

"Sir, where is Senior Sister Meng?" Song Jingxian knelt on the ground and asked curiously.

"Senior Sister Meng asked me to look after you two, and she went down the mountain to be on guard." Lin Bai explained.

"Where is the witch from Jiuyin Mountain?" Meng Bo asked through gritting his teeth.

"He's already under me." Lin Bai was sitting on the cobblestone, saying that the person had already run away.

"Witch! She got away!" Meng Bo clenched his fists, extremely angry.

Song Jingxian had come to her senses. She glanced down the mountain, then looked at Lin Bai blankly, then fell to the ground and said softly, "Thank you, Mr., for saving my life."

Meng Bo was stunned when he heard this, then he also leaned forward and said, "I will never forget your life-saving grace!"

"We are all friends, why should we be polite?" Lin Bai waved his sleeves, gently lifted the two of them up, and said, "Just sit down and recover."

Song and Meng bowed again, swallowed the pills, and sat in meditation to recover.

Lin Bai took off his hat, lay on the cobblestone, used his hands as a pillow, crossed his legs, put the hat on his chest, and looked at the sky and the clouds.

I'm too lazy to set up a formation for protection. It will be the same no matter who comes.

The bluestone beneath me was slightly warm, as if it had given birth to a sky full of blue clouds.

When I was talking with Lu Qingyin yesterday and mentioned this bluestone, Lu Qingyin said that it is not necessarily a stone.

However, Lin Bai sat cross-legged on the bluestone every day and did not find anything unusual, so the stone was indeed of the same quality as jade.

Moreover, most of the spiritual energy in the mountains converges on the bluestone.

Close your eyes and come to the stone plate.

With a thought, the mist condensed into a deer, and then a woman appeared on the deer's back.

The scene on the top of the mountain reappeared, and Lu Qingyin killed everyone again, defeating Meng Bo, repelling Meng Yuan, confusing Song Jingxian, and then defeating Lin Bai, all in one go.

Lin Bai watched from the side, replaying the incident several times and pondering the gains and losses of the battle.

"The skills are amazing, and she is both wise and brave. I'll tell Miaomiao about it later. That girl is smart, maybe she can learn from her."

After pondering for a while, Lin Bai summoned mist again and waved his hand to turn it into a water mirror.

“Examine your heart with water.”

With a pointed finger, ripples appeared on the water mirror.

After a long time, ripples appeared on the water mirror, revealing a piece of clothing, and then a hint of green flashed.

Just now I was deducing the whereabouts of Sister Pei. Lin Bai and Sister Pei depended on each other for life and death, and they were also very intimate, so the "connection" between him and her was extremely solid and relatively easy to deduce.

"The person is in the northwest direction." Lin Bai felt relieved.

Before entering this secret realm, I had planned to communicate using secret codes, but it turned out to be too big and it was useless.

Then gently stroke the water mirror and go to count Xiu Xiu.

After a few breaths, the water mirror shattered and turned into mist and dissipated.

"The fox gave it to Xiuxiu and Little Yellow Baby, but not to me. It's obvious that it treats me as an outsider!"

After scolding the fox for a while, Lin Bai's feeling of seeking good fortune and avoiding danger became more and more obvious, and good fortune was right in front of him.

In the past, when good luck occurred, it was either that one encountered something beneficial to one's spiritual practice, such as the Hunyuan body tempering method or the black jade cicada; or that one met a beautiful woman.

But this time, the good fortune should not be the latter.

Not to mention that he had no idea about Song Jingxian and Meng Yuan, they were both polite people. Although Song Jingxian respected and loved him, it was similar to the friendship between a younger generation and an elder.

As for Senior Sister Meng Yuan, Lin Bai felt that it would be useless to give her the Tiger and Wolf Pill.

Where does that auspiciousness come from? A long drought followed by a downpour of rain is considered auspicious, as is meeting an old friend in a foreign land.

I haven't seen Xiuxiu for many years, but we are more than just old acquaintances.

"Xiu Xiu is getting closer."

When Lin Bai opened his eyes, he saw that his hat was covered with butterflies.

Since entering the oasis, we can see butterflies flying all the time, as if they are endless.

However, I have not seen any monsters of the butterfly genus along the way. When I asked others, they also said they had never seen one.

However, no one took it seriously. These butterflies were ordinary creatures and had no ability to harm or confuse people.

Lin Bai didn't have the heart to disturb the butterfly, so he continued to lie there motionless.

After a while, laughter was heard in the distance.

Meng Yuan came over with three male cultivators. There was one in front and two behind. It was obvious that they were hiding carefully.

They put on their bamboo hats, exchanged greetings, and introduced themselves to each other.

The three men were surnamed Wan, Yan and Qi, and were disciples of the Huaqing School, the Qinglian Sect and the Bishui Valley.

Although they are all from the Qiaoshan lineage, they, like Li Xinghe and Ye Ruoqing, are also independent cultivators.

After chatting for a while, I learned that during the battle with Lu Qingyin yesterday, it was these three who were watching from a distance.

"The galaxy is mysterious and the lights are endless. Two heroes are fighting each other, and their magic tricks are ever-changing. We don't know who is the enemy and we wanted to stay outside to figure out the situation, but we never thought that the witch from Jiuyin Mountain has escaped! Alas!" The cultivator named Yan said in a long and complicated way.

The monks surnamed Wan and Qi nodded in agreement.

Lin Bai and his apprentice were both used to talking nonsense, so they naturally didn't believe it. Either the three of them didn't dare to step forward, or they were waiting to take advantage of the opportunity.

Meng Yuan glanced at Lin Bai and thought that all you cultivators in Qiaoshan know how to speak shamelessly and frivolously.

Lin Bai didn't feel like exposing them, so he just sat down and asked the three people about their experiences.

After talking for a long time, the three of them said a lot of things, but none of them were useful. They seemed to be upright and honest, but in fact they were cunning and didn't tell the truth.

Lin Bai had no choice but to ask about the whereabouts of Pei Ning and others.

"I really don't know this time." The three replied.

"..." Lin Bai lost his temper and asked the cultivator named Yan from the Qinglian Sect about Li Xinghe.

The cultivator named Yan spoke honestly this time, but Li Xinghe did not like socializing. He was either stargazing, meditating, or chatting with Ye Ruoqing. He had nothing else to say.

"He is a solitary person, often sitting for a whole day, and rarely talking to others. Even the teachers in the sect don't pay much attention to him. We invited him to participate in the Taoist meeting, but he never came. If we ask him for advice, he sometimes talks a little, but sometimes he doesn't want to pay attention. Later, Ye Ruoqing pestered him, and others said that they were Taoist couples. In fact, in my opinion, Senior Brother Li is not interested in women, and Junior Sister Ye is a virgin. I'm afraid the two of them just got a little closer."

The monk named Yan talked for a long time, all of which were news that Lin Bai knew.

After finishing the nonsense, the three of them asked Lin Bai about the cobblestone.

Lin Bai was an honest man and told the truth immediately.

After chatting for a few more words, the three men bowed again and went to rest aside, waiting for nightfall.

Lin Bai pulled Meng Yuan aside, and the four of them, along with Meng Bo and Song Jingxian, started chatting again.

"I've already met Lu Qingyin. Do you still want to stay here quietly, senior sister?" Lin Bai asked with a smile.

Meng Yuan said nothing, but just glanced at Meng Bo and Song Jingxian.

"Jingxian, always listen to senior sister!" Song Jingxian was very well-behaved.

"Good sister." Meng Yuan held Song Jingxian's hand with one hand and gently stroked Song Jingxian's hair with the other hand.

"Sister, Lu Qingyin is so arrogant and has many tricks up her sleeve. If we can get the chance, we will have more hope of revenge in the future!" Meng Bo said.

"Oh? In the future? When you become as good as Chen Tianren?" Meng Yuan sneered.

Meng Bo remained silent.

"Since you are here, why not go and have a look." Lin Bai watched the show for a while, then smiled and advised: "I still have to wait for Qu Ruyi, you guys might as well go in first. Or you can wait for me, Qu Ruyi, to come, and then we can go together."

"Okay!" Meng Yuan immediately grabbed Lin Bai's sleeve and said, "You said it, let's do it together!" You don't understand polite words? Why do you want to grab a sheep? Seeing that I have the means, you won't let me go?

"We should stick together." Lin Bai agreed reluctantly.

After chatting casually, Lin Bai was about to continue his meditation when he heard the shrill sound of birds singing in the distance.

Looking from afar, I saw a colorful flying bird coming from a distance, with a person standing on it.

The man and the bird arrived in a flash and landed on the top of the mountain.

The visitor was a young female cultivator, wearing the standard Taoist robe of Qiaoshan Sect; the flying bird should be a pheasant, with a colorful and beautiful tail and bright eyes.

Lin Bai and Meng Yuan were in front, and the three male cultivators with the surname Wan also looked over.

The visitor had no hostility, but the colorful pheasant stared at Meng Yuan with hatred in its chicken eyes.

Meng Yuan had said before that there used to be a green snake and a wild pheasant living on this mountain, and they were quite powerful. Meng Yuan gathered a lot of people and spent a lot of effort to make these two monsters move away.

Now, the green snake has disappeared, and the wild pheasant is probably the one in front of us.

But I don’t know the origin of this female cultivator who plays with birds.

"Excuse me, fellow Taoists. I am Qin Fengyu, a casual cultivator from Xiaqiao Mountain." The female cultivator smiled and saluted. After everyone returned the salute, she looked at Lin Bai and asked, "But is fellow Taoist Yun Zhonghe here in person?"

"Do you recognize me?" Lin Bai asked with a smile.

"My ancestor is Qin Rensong. I have stayed in Qiaoshan Sect for some time. I have heard of the name of the Wine Kingdom of Brother Dao and the senior brothers of the Yang family. I have also seen them from afar." Qin Fengyu said with a smile.

In the previous battle of Cangyun Sect, Yue Fengshu had invited a Jindan cultivator Qin Rensong to help. Later, they were ambushed by Jiuyin Mountain, and Qin Rensong never showed up again. Unexpectedly, he still has a descendant.

I was wondering how a casual cultivator could get in, it turns out that he was smuggled in by Sect Leader Yue.

Lin Bai smiled and asked, "Where is your ancestor now?"

"I was injured last time and am still recuperating." Qin Fengyu replied with a smile.

Lin Bai didn't ask any more questions, nor did he inquire about anything from her.

In the past incident of Cang Yun Sect, Yue Fengshu had indeed had no good intentions when he appointed his general. And since Qin Fengyu was Yue Fengshu's man, Lin Bai was too lazy to be perfunctory.

Meng Yuan was also a smart person. She saw that Lin Bai was just trying to be perfunctory, so she changed the subject and asked Qin Fengyu about his experience.

Qin Fengyu didn't say much, just said that he happened to meet the colorful phoenix and was fortunate enough to form a life contract with it.

Today might be an eventful day, as in the evening, two more people came from the northwest.

Both of them were women, Pei Ning and Qu Ruyi.

"As you wish!" Meng Yuan was very happy. "My dear brother Zhuanlun and I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

"Turning the Wheel..." Qu Ruyi stepped forward, looked at Lin Bai, and said, "Senior Sister, do you know his Dharma name? Have you not tried it?"

"What?" Meng Yuan asked with a smile.

Pei Ning didn't say much. He just looked at Meng Yuan, Song Jingxian and Qin Fengyu carefully, then turned his head slightly to look at Lin Bai with a faint smile on his lips.

"My brothers are here to help me through all the hardships!" Lin Bai said happily while wearing a bamboo hat.

When Pei Ning saw Lin Bai wearing a bamboo hat, she also took one out and put it on.

"The sun is almost setting." Qu Ruyi muttered, and took out one and put it on, "Miao Miao is very clever and skillful, Lin Zhuanlun is still good at teaching his apprentices!"

"..." Lin Bai had a headache, feeling that as a master he could no longer control his apprentice.

Meng Yuan felt something was wrong again, but she didn't ask any more questions. She just introduced herself to Pei Ning and called her sister.

Qin Fengyu and the three cultivators surnamed Wan did not come forward either, but just nodded from a distance as a greeting.

"Give it to me!" After saying this, Qu Ruyi reached out to Lin Bai.

Before entering the secret realm, Lin Bai signed a pledge of shame under the city, which was something he had to give to Qu Ruyi as a gift from this trip.

Lin Bai didn't waste any words and took out a pair of deer antlers and a piece of colorful deerskin.

Before Qu Ruyi could say anything, Qin Fengyu's bird started chirping.

"Cai Lu is an old friend of Sister Feng." Qin Fengyu explained with a smile.

"He was not killed by us, but died at the hands of Lu Qingyin from Jiuyin Mountain."

Lin Bai explained casually, then looked at Qu Ruyi and said, "Deer antlers nourish the body and have earth-shaking power. They can be made into spiritual tools. As for the deer skin, you can do whatever you want with it."

"Why are there small pieces missing from both antlers?" Qu Ruyi examined them and said she was disgusted, but she still happily accepted them.

She would certainly not despise such a business with no capital investment.

Soon it was night and the stars and the moon reappeared.

No one said anything, just waited quietly for the strange sign.

Lin Bai took Sister Pei's hand and talked about Lu Qingyin.

Meng Yuan and Song Jingxian secretly looked at the hands and observed Qu Ruyi's expression. They saw that Qu Ruyi was smiling and didn't take it seriously.

Song Jingxian and Meng Yuan looked at each other, both shocked and not knowing what to say.

"Ruyi and I have already discussed this. The two of us will go first." Pei Ning is a man with ideas.

"Why not go together?" Lin Bai was curious.

"You wait for Xiuxiu. Xiuxiu doesn't like me, so why should I wait for her?" Pei Ning smiled.

Why did she get so mad when all was well? Lin Bai tried to appease her, but he had no choice but to hand over Jiang Xingchi's talisman, fearing that Sister Pei would meet Lu Qingyin.

Soon the stars began to shine.

The three men surnamed Wan first bowed to everyone, then held hands and stood on the bluestone together.

"Please!" Qin Fengyu became humble when she saw Lin Bai and others looking at her.

Meng Yuan didn't waste any words and walked forward, bringing Meng Bo and Song Jingxian forward.

"I'll be waiting in front." Meng Yuan blinked, "Brother Zhuanlun, I won't go with you."

"Let's go." Pei Ning pulled Qu Ruyi.

"Actually, it's safer to wait for Xiuxiu." Qu Ruyi backed off again.

Pei Ning ignored her and dragged Qu Ruyi forward.

"Brother Yun, please!" Qin Fengyu said with a smile.

"I'm still waiting for someone." Lin Bai smiled.

"Then wait." Qin Fengyu walked forward with a smile, standing side by side with the wild pheasant, then took out a talisman and slapped it on the cobblestone.

There was a muffled sound, and then cracks appeared on the bluestone.

The pebble-like bluestone then spread out, and countless butterflies flew out and scattered into the starry light.

"How?" Qin Fengyu laughed and disappeared.

The pheasant flapped its wings, causing a strong wind, and then disappeared into the flowing light.

"There are so many butterflies." Before Lin Bai could react, he heard a voice not far away.

Just as I was about to look back, I saw the countless butterflies disperse, revealing a pair of colorful butterfly wings.

I didn't see the whole picture, but I saw the butterfly's wings tremble slightly, as if the heaven and earth were shaking along with it.

The infinite suction force came and Lin Bai could not stand steadily.

Looking back, I saw two girls holding hands, also with a look of fear on their faces.

"Xiu Xiu?" Lin Bai gritted his teeth and stepped forward, rushing towards her.

Xiuxiu was stunned for a moment, her eyes were blank at first, and then she immediately went forward to greet him.

But the power of the butterfly's wings trembling slightly was truly terrifying, as if it was about to swallow up the world.

The suction was so strong that Lin Bai struggled forward but couldn't break free.

The rocks and trees on the mountain tops were uprooted and the stars in the sky were obscured, without any light.

"Yueying!" Xiuxiu tapped her arm lightly, and her figure faded, then Yueying appeared beside Lin Bai.

Lin Bai immediately grabbed Xiuxiu's hand and tried to escape, but found it difficult to escape the huge suction.

Sand and stones flew everywhere, obscuring the eyes and ears. Lin Bai's hat was blown away by the wind, and he disappeared; Xiuxiu's hair was spread out, but she had a smile on her face.

"Hey!" Huang Ruhua couldn't escape either, so she shouted, "Wait for me!"
