Luo Yuan Gong hands received the head token, expressed the respect due, returned to the position when looking at Tang Susu and Su Bro, could not help but sigh.
There is no way, at this time Tang Mu is not afraid of any pressure, even if the clan up and down everyone opposed, it is useless to designate the successor to the sect is the power given to the head of the sect rules, Tang Mu dying before you have to play this way, who can play to win him?
"All of you remember, after my death, secret mourning, otherwise it is easy to Shangqing Sect to cause great trouble!" Tang Mu issued another posthumous order in public.
The crowd looked at each other, not knowing what it meant. Several elders' eyes touched, all with a worried look, as if they sensed something.
Later, the other inner disciples dispersed, leaving only three elders in the hall, along with Tang Yi and Wei Duo.
Only then did Elder Luo Yuan Gong ask in a deep voice, "Sect Leader, you and Dong Guo Haoran led your disciples to leave one after another, and now you have returned with such injuries, what happened and who injured you?"
Tang Mu said calmly, "I'm not very energetic, so if you have any questions, you can ask my brother after he takes over the headship."
Tang Susu said with a cold face, "Recently, there are rumors outside that Shang Mirror has reappeared in the world, could it be that the Sect Leader and Dong Guo Haoran got like this because they grabbed Shang Mirror with others?"
Speaking of the 'Shang Mirror', all the people present looked moved and stared at Tang Mu's reaction.
In fact, the history of the "Shang Mirror" is too great. Although there are seven Kings in the world today, it is still the foundation of the kingdom of Wu. When the cultivation of the world's first expert Shang Song could have been free life, after somehow the whim suddenly mixed into the mundane affairs, the effort to unify the world, the establishment of the Wu State, they also became the Wu State Emperor, has been suppressing the world's cultivators, the beautiful name is to avoid cultivators and mortals compete for profit. Later, Shang Song's wife, Li Ge, the queen of the Wu Kingdom, did not forget her original intention and made up for it.
After the disappearance of the couple, the hundreds of vassal states in the divided world could no longer be suppressed, and the vassals started a war that has continued to this day.
Legend has it that Shang Song made a set of eight magic treasures by which Shang Song broke the sky and Li Ge mended the sky. When the Wu kingdom collapsed, the artifacts exiled and the eight treasures kept circulating among the vassal states. As the small countries continue to be annexed, the world eventually formed a situation of the eight powers, the eight treasures are also in the hands of the eight countries, the countries are regarded as the national artifacts. The 'Shang Mirror' is the magic weapon of the Qin Kingdom, and it is rumored that the 'Shang Mirror' is the primer of the Heaven-breaking and Heaven-mending treasures, the first of the eight treasures, which led to the intervention of the cultivators and the destruction of the Qin Kingdom. When the Qin Kingdom dynasty collapsed, the whereabouts of the 'Shang Mirror' was unknown, and all forces were unable to find it.
The crux of the matter is that it is rumored that Li Ge, the Queen of Wu, did not mend the sky completely and there are still gaps. Some people therefore think that there are too many monks in the world and this is related to the fact that when there are more monks, they will inevitably compete with the people for profits, and think that monks keep meddling in mundane affairs to make the world constantly at war, so some people want to gather eight magic treasures to fill the holes in the sky and cut off the source of spiritual energy, which naturally offends the monks in the world, and Ning KingShang Jianbo, the Grand Secretary of Yan Kingdom, is one of the representatives.
The Shangqing Sect has unscrupulous disciples and Ning KingShang Jianbo eyebrows, such as Dong Guo Haoran.
Recently the outside world suddenly rumored 'Shang Mirror' reappeared, Tang Mu and Dong Guo Haoran and at this time with disciples out of the unknown what to do, but also into such a mess, want to let people suspect their whereabouts and Shang Mirror related are difficult.
How many sect of practice stand behind a country? However, the Shang Mirror is something that can lead to the destruction of the nation. If the Shangqing Sect is on it, will it not make people worried? The Shangqing Sect is no longer the Shangqing Sect of the early prosperous period. It has long since declined and can not withstand the wind and rain.
Tang Mu slowly closed his eyes, "You think too much, only because of the unknown people sneak attack."

Several people can see that Tang Mu does not want to tell the truth, he is like this, will fall at any time, no one can force him ......
The next day at dawn, the temple door creaked open a crack, an eye inside the doorway slipped out a few eyes.
The door crack gradually opened, Master Dao head out of the left and right look.
The door opened again, Master Dao probe feet gently side out of the body, tiptoe quietly fall steps, do not dare to make a sound, continue to observe the outside movement. Out to the outside of the small temple around the circle, listening with ears, eyes open, carefully observe the surrounding.
It seems that the winter season, outside the sky is cold, grass and trees withered.
Throwing a few stones around to explore the road, and did not see any reaction, found that there really does not seem to be any danger, outside the temple standing on the slope of the Master Dao Fang relaxed straighten the body to stay alert and cat, once again from the bosom to feel the mirror polished light can be seen in the bronze mirror, sighing to their own face left and right shine.
The mirror stuffed back into his arms, saw the creek at the foot of the mountain, and ran down the mountain in a flash. When he reached the stream, he jumped on a rock in the stream and looked at his own shadow reflected in the stream, "Alas!" Another long sigh.
Before in the temple through the light outside the mirror, combined with their current situation, almost figured out why the old man called him little brother, shouting him little brother is correct, really little brother, found himself into a small teenage boy.
Slowly squatting on the stone, the clear stream to the shadow of self-pity for a while, stomach "rumbling", hungry.
Whatever the relationship between this teenage boy and himself, the feeling of hunger is really borne by him, get up and look around, have to find a way to eat.
Inadvertently see the place across the mountain seems to have signs of cooking smoke curling up, jumped over the stream, found a seemingly leading to the wilderness path there, all the way to stay alert to touch the past.
Over the mountain ridge to hide behind a large tree observation, saw a village.
The village looked a bit messy, seems to have been burned by fire, many women and children crying and crying, the villagers are cleaning up the messy village.
Master Dao look at their own dress, dirty sackcloth shoes at the hole exposed big toe sticking up, a bit miserable, but and the villagers dress in line, but also let him have the courage to show his face and walk out, with a few guilty towards the village.
Just into the village, they saw a woman with messy hair ran over and hugged him with a ghostly cry, "Xiao Dao, you are still alive, I thought you were killed by those soldiers and bandits............"
An hour later, Master Dao understood, this village was sacked by the rebel soldiers yesterday, some people were killed or injured, he appeared in that broken temple is probably because of hiding from the rebel soldiers.
The smoke was extinguished, and the men who had eaten less than half full in the village began to go into the mountains to find food, the main task was to dig some roots and plants or hunt some beasts for the villagers to survive the winter. As for the village food were looted by the soldiers and bandits, just now a little food or who hid not found by the soldiers and bandits, it's not enough to feed the whole village. A little food was temporarily supplied to the men who had to do manual work, the old and weak women and children had to endure hunger and continue to clean up the wreckage of the village, until the men went to the mountains to find food.
Looking for food among the men, Master Dao also became a member of the confusion, the young teenager also used as a man.
Now not called Master Dao, the original name in this village is Niu You Dao, I do not know if it is also the time and fate, and his 'Master Dao' is called just right.
Niu You Dao is Niu You Dao, Master Dao does not care, he does not know how he has become Niu You Dao.
He was surprised by this strange event, but it was not too difficult to accept. He such a dry 'archaeological' origin, the afterlife of the dead have seen a lot, strange and bizarre things are not uncommon, this kind of soul parasitic human body, various ancient legends have also seen a lot, others when superstition, but he has always been a belief is yes, do not believe is no attitude, to confirm their own situation, the mind is okay, can be openly accepted.
In short, here is not an unknown person, a reasonable identity, Master Dao himself has decided, called Niu You Dao it.
The search for food close by was given to the teenagers, and the more adventurous trips were given to the adults.
Under the guise of finding food, Niu You Dao ran away, not to find food, but back to the broken temple.
A ragged mantle hanging in the temple was ripped off by him, wrapped the old man's body and carried it down the hill to the river where the old man had spoken.
Into the bamboo forest wielding a firewood knife put down some bamboo, trim off the branches and leaves, the length of the interception, to find something like dead vines soak water, weave a fairly solid three-layer continuous large bamboo row, spacious and stable. With his life experience, making up a bamboo row is a very simple matter, not much work.
Bamboo tube bottom as a roller, the woven bamboo row rumbled into the water, the old man's body put on it, but also searched a pile of dead wood piled on, and from the creek to find a large flat stone put on the bamboo row.
A simple paddle, a bamboo pole, together with the bamboo row, the hoe brought from the village also threw up.
A knife cut tied to the dead vine, the bamboo boat shore a support, the bamboo row carrying people offshore.
Brace the bamboo row, by the flow of water, slowly swing away from the blue waves and go.
As for why did not stay with the villagers to rebuild their homes, first of all, there is little affection for these villagers, and these nest in the mountains of the villagers have little insight, he pretended to be stupid and asked a number of questions, the results of the villagers even outside what the situation is not clear. He did not want to stay here to farm and was curious about the world here, and even more curious about the Shangqing Sect that Dong Guo Haoran, whose inner strength is so profound that it is frightening, said is going on. When he was a Master Dao, he liked this kind of cultivation stuff, often looking for similar texts from ancient tombs, and had a strong desire to go to Shangqing Sect to see it.
The second is that this damn place is often robbed by bandits, his own family members of the teenage body has long been those bandits to the disaster, the village similar to his case a lot, he was all alone, there is nothing to hang on to when he left.
Also do not want to stay long, while the village is not familiar with the people to go as soon as possible, afraid to stay long and the villagers have feelings after difficult to leave, so quietly left.
The kindness of a meal, the future conditions to repay, although even half full is not counted.
And bring Dong Guo Haoran's corpse because he think it is safer to bring an extra piece of evidence to Shangqing Sect, does it also seem to have some sincerity?
This cold weather, he thought the freshness should be okay, bring no trouble.
