Chapter 348 It’s a pleasure to have friends from far away

There is indeed a person in the corridor. He is wearing a bun and a face like a crown jewel. He looks to be no more than thirty years old. He is wearing a green robe. He is floating gently in the mountain breeze and looks quite a bit fairy-like.

"It's great to have friends from far away. Li Fengli, a poor Taoist, has met my Taoist friends." The Taoist smiled slightly when he saw Wang An.

“Pineapple, do you have a senior brother named Pineapple?”

The Taoist priest was slightly startled after hearing this, with a bit of surprise on his face.

 “Just kidding.” Wang An smiled and waved his hand.

“Fellow Taoist, please come this way.” Li Fengli smiled slightly and pointed to the side.

 “Lead the way.”

Li Fengli led the way, and Wang An followed behind, looking at the clouds and mist.

 “Are you the only one on this mountain?”

 “There is one more.” Li Fengli said with a smile.

　　The two people bypassed the corridor dug out of the cliff and came to a pavilion.

 “Please, Taoist Priest.”

Wang An followed Li Fengli into the pavilion. The furnishings inside were very simple, with wooden tables and chairs, a futon for meditation, a small stove, and an exquisite iron pot on the stove with a dragon coiled on it and the spout of the pot. The handle of the pot is the dragon's tail.

 “Fellow Taoist, please take a seat.”

 After sitting down, Li Fengli picked up the iron pot and made tea. Under the stimulation of hot water, the strong fragrance of tea wafted out.

 “Fellow Taoist, please have some tea.”

 The tea smells very fragrant, and the tea water is light green and very clear.

“What does the Taoist priest do on this mountain on weekdays?” Wang An asked Taoist priest Li Fengli who was sitting in front of him without drinking tea.

“Refining Qi and breathing in, comprehending the mysteries between heaven and earth.” Li Fengli said.

 “The Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain?”

“Those people have never understood the Great Way, they just learned some heretical ways.” Li Fengli replied.

 Is this different from what the person at the bottom of the mountain said?

“Please tell me, Taoist priest, what is the great road?”

“Comprehension of the mysteries between heaven and earth is the Great Way. The Great Way can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words. As the saying goes, the Tao can be taught, but it is not the Tao; the name can be named, but it is not the name.”

“You’re talking about the same thing. Did you know that the Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain uses people to conduct experiments?”

"Know."

 “Why not stop it?”

“I also tried to persuade him, but the way was different.”

“Different ways? Some people came to the island before. Where did they go?”

 “Be eaten by wild beasts in the forest.”

"What kind of beast? I saw a strange blue bird while walking. I didn't see any wild beast in the forest?" Wang An stared at the Taoist priest in front of him.

This Li Fengli's aura is very strong, more than ten times that of the man in robes he met in the Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain. In addition, the energy radiated from his body is very closely related to the surroundings.

These are things that ordinary people cannot see with their eyes, but Wang An can feel them clearly.

There is no doubt that the Taoist priest in front of me is lying, and his words are still so natural. Wang An was not in a hurry to take action. Since he wants to finish playing, then play with him.

“Tea, please.” Li Fengli invited Wang An to tea for the second time.

 “This tea is not ordinary tea, right?”

“It is a spiritual tea from the mountains. Drinking it regularly can make people feel calm and make it easier for them to fall into tranquility. Fellow Taoists can take some back to taste when they leave.”

“The so-called spiritual tea you are talking about is made from jujube leaves, right?” Wang An stared at the tea in the cup, and he smelled a special smell in the tea.

“How did fellow Taoist know this?” Taoist Li Fengli picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea.

 “Where is that date tree? I want to see it.”

 “You want to see the sacred tree?” Li Fengli was stunned after hearing this.

 “Sacred tree?”

 “That tree has already communicated with the gods, so it is called the sacred tree.”

 “Then you have to see it.”

 “Okay, please come with me.”

Then Li Fengli got up and took Wang An out of the attic. He walked along the corridor and introduced the situation in the mountain to Wang An from time to time, just like a tour guide.

They walked along the corridor on the cliff to the back of the mountain. There was a depression in the middle of the mountain, but it was not the kind of valley that reached the bottom all at once, but only reached halfway up the mountain.

 The corridor in the mountain winds its way down the mountain. While walking, Li Fengli suddenly stopped.

 “There it is.”

He raised his finger and pointed somewhere in the mountain. As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind blew by. Where he pointed, the lingering clouds began to disperse, revealing the true appearance of the mountain. Among the scattered rocks, a large tree could be vaguely seen. The tree has lush branches, and there are still fiery red fruits hanging on the big tree. Each one is like a point of fire, and it seems to be still shining.

  “Very powerful aura.”

Wang An felt a strong aura on the tree in front of him, which was somewhat similar to the power he once controlled. The power of wood among the five elements represents vitality.

"It's worse than I thought." Wang An said calmly.

 “What do you imagine it to be like?” Li Fengli couldn’t help but ask after hearing this.

 “It should be the king of trees in this mountain forest.”

 “It is indeed.”

“Just looking at the image, I always feel like something is missing.” Wang An looked at the tree.

"What's the near miss?" Li Fengli's expression changed slightly after hearing this.

 The tree in front of me seemed to hear the conversation between the two of them, and its leaves swayed slightly.

Wang An suddenly disappeared from Li Fengli's eyes, and appeared next to the jujube tree the next moment. Li Fengli was stunned for a moment, and then Wang An disappeared again and appeared next to Li Fengli again.

Li Fengli turned to stare at Wang An, his right hand folded in the long Taoist robe.

 “What did fellow Taoist mean just now?”

Wang An didn't say anything. He stretched out his hand and spread his fingers. In his palm lay a few emerald green leaves of the jujube tree, and a fiery red jujube.

 “This date looks good.”

 “If fellow Taoist want to eat, you can pick more.”

Wang An picked up a leaf and brought it to his nose and smelled it carefully.

 “No, this tastes wrong, the tea was not made from leaves from this tree.”

“Can you tell the difference by just a few leaves?”

“Almost, fellow Taoist, are you ready to take action?” Wang An smiled and looked at Li Fengli in front of him, and he felt that the aura of the other party was changing.

This change is like throwing a big stone into the originally calm lake water, causing ripples in the water.

Li Fengli’s face did not change when he heard this and his expression was calm.

“Why do fellow Taoists say this?”

"In the Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain, the guy with snake scales on half his face has told me the story of this island. You are too polite to me. Do you have some conspiracy or something? Afraid?" As Wang An spoke, the energy in his body had already merged into his surroundings.

 He could feel that there was an energy around him that was very repulsive to the infuriating energy he was emitting. It excludes the integration and control of his zhenqi on the surrounding energy, but this rejection cannot prevent the integration of his zhenqi and the surrounding energy, because his infinite zhenqi is at a higher level.

 The true energy he exudes can suppress another energy, and even directly **** away the energy that has been communicated by that energy.

 “Are you communicating between heaven and earth?”

Li Fengli said nothing and just stared at Wang An, who was close at hand. He was indeed afraid of Wang An, otherwise he would have taken action long ago, and he would not have talked so much nonsense to Wang An.

“I walked around the island before coming here. You should have noticed that I know there aren’t many wild animals on this mountain. Where have all the people who came before gone?”

Li Fengli was silent. Wang An heard subtle noises coming from all around. The rocks around him and the soil under his feet seemed to have something about to break out of the ground.
