Chapter 2 The Old Man in White



Looking at the old man with an expectant look on his face, Su Muxi also grinned, revealing her big white teeth.

"Grandpa, you are my savior. Let alone one favor, even if it's eight or ten, I won't hesitate."

"It's just that my abilities are limited now, and I am powerless."

"But my family is very capable, they can definitely help you."

"I'm lost and can't find my way home."

"Well, take me home first."

"As long as I get home safely, my family will definitely take care of your matter and will thank you profusely."

Now it was Su Muxi's turn to look at the old man with anticipation.

However, a trace of loneliness flashed across the old man's face, and then he shook his head helplessly.

"Girl, I can't leave here."

"But if you take care of my business, I can show you the way home."

Su Muxi was disappointed, but she still smiled brightly at the old man.

Although the old man was unwilling to send him back, he would definitely not harm him. After all, it was a fact that he had just saved him.

"Grandpa, tell me what you need my help with."

"I'll help you finish it as soon as possible so I can go home earlier, otherwise my parents will be worried."

The old man shook his head.

"Girl, this matter of mine is a bit troublesome and cannot be completed in a short time."

"And today is not the right time."

"You should come back with me first, and I will explain it to you slowly."

Before Su Muxi could say the words of refusal, a white light flashed before her eyes and she disappeared from the spot.

In just a blink of an eye, the dense forest in front of Su Muxi instantly turned into a dilapidated temple.

Her eyes widened and she looked around in disbelief.

What kind of magical plot is this?

Since she woke up, why is this world no longer the world she is familiar with?

Looking at the old man who calmly walked towards the stone bench next to him and sat down, Su Muxi hurriedly followed him.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, did we just teleport?"

"How did you do that?

"Is this the legendary spell?"

"You...you are not a god, are you?"

Su Muxi was so excited that she was incoherent, and a series of questions came out of her mouth like a machine gun.

The old man in white waited until Su Muxi finished asking a hundred thousand questions before he said calmly, "I'm not a god, I'm just a spirit."

"As for the teleportation just now, it was achieved through the formation."

"Spirit? What is it?"

Su Muxi scratched her head. This was obviously beyond her understanding.

The old man in white sat upright, raised his hands to cover his ears and smiled faintly at Su Muxi.

"It's what you people often call a ghost."

I was wondering why the old man suddenly became like this.

"ah……"

Accompanied by a scream, Su Muxi jumped three feet high.

By the time she stopped screaming, she had retreated to a corner farthest from the old man.

She folded her arms across her chest and squatted there, looking at the old man in horror.

The old man in white finally waited until Su Muxi closed her mouth and took down her hands that were covering her ears.

"Girl, do I look scary to you?"

Su Muxi shook her head.

"Did I harm you?"

Su Muxi shook her head again.

"Hahaha, then why are you afraid of me?"

After hearing the old man's words, Su Muxi suddenly came to her senses, relaxed her tense body, and slowly stood up from the corner.

"That old man, I'm sorry, this is my instinctive reaction."

The old man waved his hand.

"Hahaha, it's okay. I'm used to it over the past few hundred years. Come and sit down."

"But the little girl is pretty brave, unlike those brats before, who either peed their pants or fainted from fright."

When Su Muxi heard that there was someone else, she immediately sat down next to the old man, her eyes full of gossip.

Su Muxi was just about to continue asking a hundred thousand whys.

The old man, who had experienced the girl's numerous questions, spoke first: "Listen to me first, then you can ask."

Su Muxi swallowed, suppressed the desire to speak, and nodded obediently.

"Okay, Grandpa, go ahead and tell me."

The old man nodded secretly when he saw how quickly she adapted.

"Girl, tell me your name first."

"Su Muxi, the wood of trees, the tide of tides."

The old man nodded, "It's a unique name."

After pondering for a moment, the old man slowly spoke and told Su Muxi about his past experiences.

It turned out that the old man's name was Li Chong, and his Taoist name was Yixuan.

He was the leader of the Changyang Sect a thousand years ago, and possessed extraordinary supernatural powers.

However, during a fierce battle to eliminate demons, he was plotted against by a villain.

As a result, his soul was damaged and he was forcibly sealed in this forest.

He relied on his remaining soul to practice for a hundred years and finally broke through a trace of the seal.

But it can only move within a radius of ten miles.

In the following thousand years, Yixuan tried many times to accept disciples.

I hope the disciples will have enough strength to break the seal.

Help him regain his freedom and reincarnate earlier.

At first, he recruited many disciples.

But none of the many disciples achieved anything.

Not to mention breaking the seal.

Later, he turned to selecting those with decent talent and spirituality as his disciples.

But no one has succeeded yet.

As time goes by.

Yixuan gradually became disheartened and no longer had the desire to accept any disciples.

He then devoted himself to practicing in the mountains and forests.

Occasionally, nearby villagers get into trouble in the mountains and forests.

He will also help to accumulate some merit.

Those simple villagers thought he was a mountain god.
