"Is this a danger?"
Seeing Xu Luo's conflicted look, standing there waiting, Taoist Tianji just found it amusing.
I had heard before that Tiandu Taoist's disciple was born with intuition, could see through danger, and never went to dangerous places. Now I see that he is indeed an extraordinary person.
With a quick glance, he naturally knew that there was a hungry forest leopard lurking on the mountain path. If he went up the mountain at this time, he would definitely encounter it directly.
With Xu Luo's level of Qi gathering, although he is as light as a swallow compared to ordinary people, he is no match for an adult forest leopard.
If a warrior of the first realm were to come, he could naturally be killed with just a few punches. However, for a Taoist, the first realm really had nothing magical about it.
Taoist Tianji was curious about what choice Xu Luo would make, and watched with great interest.
A clear understanding of the crisis? Or a sympathetic connection between heaven and man?
Or is it that knowing one's mind and nature, being born with awareness, is the magical power to avoid misfortune and seek good fortune?
He knew nothing about this.
“No need to rush up the mountain.”
Xu Luo felt that there was no need to rush up the mountain since he was the only one there anyway.
As for food?
A pond full of fish is enough for him to eat for a while.
He just didn't believe that the forest leopard would guard him for ten days or half a month.
Having made up his mind, Xu Luo was no longer in a hurry. He silently recited the Taoist scriptures he had memorized and began to practice boxing at the same time.
Although it is not like martial artists who need to temper their skin, membranes, bones, flesh, blood, marrow and other parts of their body, it is good to practice kung fu to strengthen their body.
There was nothing to do for a while, so for Xu Luo, practicing kung fu and relaxing the meridians and promoting blood circulation could not only relieve his fatigue, but also kill time and prevent himself from being too anxious or bored.
Every once in a while, Xu Luo would have the thought of going back.
But each time it was a level two danger, which meant that Lin Bao might not have left at all, but had been lurking on the mountain path, waiting for someone with a destiny to take the bait.
The Tiandu Taoists never care about this kind of ground danger. They are too weak and cannot threaten them.
But he forgot that Xu Luo was still just gathering energy and needed to walk on the ground.
Since Lin Bao wasn't leaving for the time being, Xu Luo could only wait.
He never thought about leaving.
The worst that can happen is that you just have to wait a little longer. It’s no big deal.
Anyway, he has plenty of time in the day and there is nothing urgent waiting for him to do.
Seeing that Xu Luo had no intention of moving, Lin Bao was still waiting there on the mountain road.
Taoist Tianji had an inexplicable expression on his face.
He began to take some interest in Xu Luo.
This ability is simply terrifying.
Especially when exploring secret places, being able to avoid danger and seek good fortune in advance and knowing how to make choices is simply a magical skill.
The sky gradually darkened, and whenever Xu Luo thought about going up the mountain, he would be prompted that there was a second-level danger.
This made him very helpless.
Is it possible to spend the night at the foot of the mountain?
"We monks have braved all obstacles along the way and have forged ahead courageously."
At this time, there was a Taoist priest with a tall crown and wearing a black and white Taoist robe beside Xu Luo.
"Life is a long journey, and there are so many choices in life. Do you have to retreat every time?"
The Taoist looked at him.
"You can retreat if you encounter a forest leopard this time, and you can retreat if you encounter a mountain spirit next time. But what will you do if you encounter a big monster next time?"
"Those who practice Taoism follow the will of Heaven. Your strong intuition can be both good and bad for you. Consider carefully and don't be too withdrawn."
Taoist Tianji felt that Xu Luo's strong intuition was a good thing, as it could help him avoid danger and seek good fortune. However, because of this, he was too steady and had lost the sharpness of a young man.
"Can I retreat again and again?"
Hearing what Taoist Tianji said was like a wake-up call to Xu Luo.
We should retreat from crises, but we cannot avoid them blindly.
Just like poisonous water scorpions, when it is possible to solve the problem, we should naturally nip the danger in the bud.
Without danger, there will naturally be no threat to oneself.
"What should I do when facing Lin Bao?"
Xu Luo muttered to himself.
"Could you please, nephew, do me a small favor?"
Xu Luo looked at Taoist Tianji.
"Um?"
After hearing Xu Luo's words, Tianji Taoist, who had originally come to advise Xu Luo not to be too cautious and ruin the young man's enterprising spirit, suddenly stiffened and his facial expression froze when he heard the word "junior apprentice brother".
Only then did he remember that he was not facing an ordinary disciple of Xuansu Mountain, but the 73rd generation disciple of Tiandu Peak.
Although he is the master of Tianji Peak, his seniority is already the 74th generation.
If the mountain master saw this, he would probably be even more depressed.
"Uncle Master, what are you talking about?"
Taoist Tianji's complexion quickly returned to normal.
"Master uncle has given instructions, and nephew will naturally do it."
"I think you're right."
Xu Luo looked serious.
"When encountering danger, we cannot simply retreat. My sect has so many True Lords and True Immortals, how can we retreat?
"But I am young, incompetent, and poorly educated. I don't understand the Dao Sutra, so I am ashamed to face the Dao Ancestor. Fortunately, I have my nephew here. I beg you to remove Lin Bao, who is blocking the way. I, the master, do not need to give in. I can continue to advance triumphantly and live up to the Dao Ancestor's prestige."
Seeing Xu Luo saying this to him so seriously, Taoist Tianji initially thought that his advice was effective and felt relieved. But after hearing the content, he was completely dumbfounded.
I asked you to be brave and diligent, and not to be timid and too cautious. How come you are asking me to solve the crisis?
For Xu Luo, when faced with danger, he either has to avoid it or face it.
It was obvious that he couldn't cope with it on his own, but what the Taoist sect lacked the least was a Taoist partner.
Isn't it at this time that fellow disciples, uncles, and other elders come into play?
There happened to be a Taoist priest named Tianji around who advised him to be brave, so Xu Luo naturally set his sights on him.
When facing a crisis, solving it is the best option, but that doesn’t mean you have to solve it yourself!
As long as the threat of the crisis is eliminated, Xu Luo will have no worries. As for whether he can handle it himself, he will not have any psychological burden.
"Your character..."
Taoist Tianji burst out laughing.
Looking at the young boy beside him, he had a clear mind and did it himself without any psychological burden. Instead, he felt confident and justified. He did not have the embarrassment that other boys of this age would have. He found it very interesting.
Perhaps this kind of mentality is very suitable for practicing Taoism.
As for his original worry about being too cautious and ruining a promising cultivator, it now seems that he was worrying too much.
This young man has an extraordinary mind and is very opinionated. He is not an ordinary person.
Xu Luo did not feel the burden of his juniors coming to advise him because they were worried that he was too cautious.
For him, tools are useful only for their own use.
It doesn't matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it catches the mouse, it is a good cat.
The means are not the problem, solving the problem is the key.
This is not about using any means necessary, but about not being picky about details.
