?
Rumor face puzzled.
"What's the door-bashing thing?"
"Topological gate."
"What door?"
"...Topological Gate."
"Topological what?"
"Fellow Daoist Chu, please don't make fun of me." The old Taoist named Qingxuan showed a hint of anger on his face, but thinking that the other party had just saved him, he did not get angry.
"You and I seek different paths. If Fellow Daoist Chu doesn't understand, then forget it. There's no need to force it."
"Okay, so what is this topological gate repairing?"
"Sorry, this is a secret of our sect, I cannot tell you."
"Don't worry, Daoist Qingxuan, I'm just a little curious," Chu Yao's eyes flashed with a hint of hidden cunning.
"You and I are both celestial beings, and we are both well aware of the millennia-old grudges between immortals and mortals. Fellow Daoist Qingxuan is so blatantly seeking to 'imitate' the way of immortality. Aren't you risking the wrath of the world? Aren't you afraid of becoming the target of public criticism and being ridiculed?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Qing Xuan was a little anxious. "Seeking the Tao... How can the Tao I cultivate be compared with the nonsense of those flying swords? Apart from anything else, the immortals they seek are nothing but shadowless and illusory! What I worship is a real immortal that can be seen and touched!"
Chu Yao's smile was about to burst: "May I ask what kind of immortal does Daoist Qingxuan worship?"
"Hmph, I'm afraid you'll be scared if I tell you this, but the immortal we worship is the first immortal of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the Quantum Heavenly Monarch!"
ah?
Chu Yao didn't know what expression to use to face the old Taoist in front of her who was speaking with such certainty.
"Quantum Lord?"
"Exactly. Using the method of topology, the energy of numerology, and the elixir of fusion, the bytes are exchanged and the circuits are formed into veins!"
When the old Taoist priest spoke of his happiness, his face lit up, and he even gestured a spell in front of his chest that Chu Yao didn't recognize:
"Mechanical ascension, finally becoming a great road!"
Chu Yao was stunned.
What is cyber cultivation?
Under Chu Yao's provocation, the old Taoist really spoke a lot. But Chu Yao was even more confused after listening.
"You want to become a robot?"
"No. It's just a small step! If only..."
The old Taoist wanted to continue talking, but suddenly realized that he seemed to have said too much, so he quickly shut up.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, I have revealed enough. You can figure out the rest on your own."
I understand you meow egg...
Chu Yao finally lost interest in this old Taoist priest. In her opinion, Qing Xuan was just like the people in the Chonghuo Sect, and there might be something wrong with his brain.
She found a towel from the trunk and wiped the dust off the motorcycle's exterior. "Okay, I'm leaving now. Take care of yourself. We'll meet again someday."
Chu Yao made a move to leave, but the old Taoist started to hesitate, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
She knew at a glance that the old Taoist must have encountered some difficulties, so she tilted her head to look at him.
Qing Xuan pursed his lips, then took a deep breath and spoke, "May I ask... Fellow Daoist Chu, how far is it from here to Xindu?"
Okay, so we are going to Xindu.
"Don't you have a cell phone?" Chu Yao asked suspiciously.
"My cell phone...was lost when I was chased by those robbers."
"This place is at least two hundred kilometers away from Xindu." Chu Yao glanced at the flying sword in the old Taoist's hand. "You can't fly over there with just your flaming iron sword."
"It's still so far away...what should I do..." Qingxuan's brows were twisted.
"Where on earth are you from? How did you end up getting involved with the Insect Fire Cult?"
"This... is a long story." Qing Xuan sighed. "I'm originally from Wucheng. This time I came here with a few close friends for... for something urgent. The car broke down in this wasteland. We were waiting for rescue when we ran into these savages and had to flee in all directions..."
Wucheng, I've heard of this Chu ballad.
It is one of the few cities on the second continent that has not been affected by nuclear weapons.
When the war broke out, Dayin and Jiang Lu took the Tianyin sect members they found and hid in Wucheng until the war stopped and they reunited with the company.
"The wasteland is full of dangers. What could possibly make you risk your lives to rush here?" Chu Yao felt wary. "Besides, flights between major cities reopened a year ago, right? Don't you know how to fly?"
"Fellow Daoist Chu, you don't know that plane tickets... are really too expensive. There are three of us. Even if it's economy class, a one-way ticket for one person costs as much as the gas money for driving round trip." Qingxuan showed a wry smile on his face.
Phew. So that's what happened.
The old Taoist's eyes were full of brilliance when he talked about cultivation, but he became a little embarrassed when talking about air tickets.
Seeing his somewhat embarrassed look reminded Chu Yao of the difficult years he had gone through as a casual cultivator, and he couldn't laugh for a moment.
Three cents can make a hero fall.
"I have something else to do right now. If you want me to send you to Xindu, you're making a mistake."
Hearing this, Qingxuan's mood was obviously a little depressed, but Chu Yao's next words cheered him up again:
"But I can show you the way." Chu Yao changed the subject. "As for the price, I don't want any money. I just want you to tell me what this 'urgent matter' you mentioned is?"
Qingxuan pondered for a moment, hesitant.
"I hope you understand that this is a wasteland." Chu Yao waved her hand, and the small robots working nearby walked towards her. "If I hadn't dealt with these Fire Worm Cultists, do you think you would still be alive today? And I haven't even asked you for compensation yet."
Qing Xuan's eyes flickered, but in order to solve the current problem, he finally spoke:
"In that case, I will tell you, fellow Daoist, but you must not tell anyone else, because this may be the immortal opportunity that cultivators of my generation have been hoping for for many years!"
