Chapter 242 Death

Master Xue is old.

In fact, he has been getting older, but because of his cultivation, he can't see much change.

For him, old and not old are just a matter of a moment.

The town began to become depressed, but every day there was an old man walking on the street.

Anyone who met him would respectfully call him Master. He was older than the old people in his family and was also a living fossil who protected the safety of the town.

But at this moment, Master Xue's eyes were cloudy and he couldn't see the whole picture of the town.

After careful calculation, he had lived for more than two hundred years.

With the magic of the statue, he broke through to the peak of foundation building.

But it stopped there.

How many more years can he protect this town?

………

Reading at night.

Master Xue flipped through the letters between him and his students, savoring their lives, as if he was experiencing them himself.

His life was plain and peaceful, but also fulfilling.

Is this the life he wants?

Or should he pursue more opportunities and higher paths when he is young?

Master Xue stared at the statue in a trance, as if he had Alzheimer's disease.

"Manzi, you are stealing food again. I told you to practice hard, otherwise how can you become a great monk?"

"Okay, okay, you just know how to make me happy. You haven't made any progress in your practice. If you keep being lazy, don't you want to show up to do justice?"

"Yes, Xuanzi is the most diligent in his practice. You should learn from him..."

Master Xue sometimes stood up and scolded the air, sometimes gave a serious lecture to Jiang Mu's statue, and sometimes made exaggerated movements.

But his eyes slowly changed from turbid to clear.

Finally, Master Xue sat down again.

In fact, he likes this kind of life.

Likes the quiet and peaceful town.

With this thought, Master Xue took out a pen and paper and began to write a suicide note.

He had no wife or children in his life, so he didn't have any last words.

But he looked around and always felt that the empty house should be of some use.

Then he stared at Jiang Mu's statue again.

Xue Zhenren always felt that the statue was too lifelike, and it looked like a living person in both appearance and expression.

Over the years, he still could not comprehend the other functions of the statue.

But when he looked at the statue, it was as if he was looking at a supreme being, and a sense of insignificance arose in his heart.

At this point, Xue Zhenren concluded that the statue must be related to a powerful cultivator, and perhaps it stared at him on weekdays, and there were other magical things, very spiritual.

"Brother Diao, you and I have been together for nearly a hundred years. Although we can't speak, it is fate that we can get along like this."

"My birthday is over, leaving this mansion, you can stay here too, it's a home anyway."

After saying this, Xue Zhenren couldn't help shaking his head again.

It's just a statue, but he treated him as a fellow Taoist.

After doing all this, Xue Zhenren stood up, left a suicide note, and left the mansion.

Since he was a person seeking immortality, he should be buried in the mountains and rivers after death.

That night was a restless night for the mountain bandits and demons around Fuyuan Town.

Since then, Master Xue has never appeared in Fuyuan Town again.

At first, people in the town thought that Master Xue just didn't like to go out.

After all, Master Xue had been in seclusion for a long time, which was reasonable.

And the town has been very peaceful recently, and no disasters have happened, so no one went to the mansion to see what was going on.

Until a few years later, the tranquility of the town was broken.

A demon broke into the town and started eating people.

This is a tiger demon, which opened its spiritual wisdom by coincidence and became a demon.

Its body is five meters long and three meters high. After breaking into the town one night, it ate a family of three and was discovered by the night watchman.

The officials then asked people to capture it. They were all martial artists. They heard that it was just a tiger, so they were not afraid.

But they became scared after seeing its tall body.

How could a normal mountain tiger grow so big? It is obviously a spirit.

"Go find Master Xue quickly, he's a professional!"

At this time, everyone hurried to the mansion to find Master Xue out.

Just knocking on the door, but there was no movement.

A slight push and the door opened automatically.

"Hmm?"

"Master, Master, help me!"

"There's a tiger demon, the adults can't stand it anymore!"

Someone shouted, but no one responded.

Until they walked into the lobby, they found that it was covered with dust.

"Master?"

The people who came to look for people were stunned on the spot.

"Roar--"

Just at this moment, a roar shook the sky, and the whole town could hear it clearly.

"Tiger roar?"

Jiang Mu was awakened by the tiger roar.

His spiritual sense probed out of the statue, walked out of the mansion, and accurately found the location of the tiger demon.

After a hundred years of recuperation, Jiang Mu's Yuanshen has become much stronger, and his body functions are also recovering.

So his spiritual sense can now cover the entire town.

With Master Xue gone, naturally no one can control this tiger demon.

But Jiang Mu is excluded.

The powerful divine consciousness strangled the tiger demon instantly.

The people who were trembling with the tiger demon only felt a breeze coming, and the tiger demon's eyes widened, his limbs stiffened, and he died on the spot.

"What happened?"

Everyone looked at each other.

It was not until the person who went to the mansion to look for Master Xue brought a letter that everyone suddenly realized.

"Master is gone..."

"It must be Master Xue's spirit that appeared just now, right?"

"He is protecting the town in the dark."

"The real person must have become an immortal!"

The tiger demon would not die tragically for no reason, it can only be attributed to this.

Fortunately, the people in this world originally believed in immortals. In their opinion, a cultivator like Xue Zhenren who had infinite merits would definitely become an immortal.

So on the second day, the people in the town held a three-year-late mourning meeting for Xue Zhenren, and asked someone to build a statue for him, which was worshipped by everyone. m.X520xs.Com

Many of them have been protected by Xue Zhenren for generations, and through word of mouth, no one does not respect Xue Zhenren.

The statue covered with dust began to break and cracks appeared.

Then the debris fell off, revealing the person inside.

Jiang Mu used his spiritual power to break free from the petrified skin fragments outside his body and walked out slowly.

The moon was in the sky at night, and he walked out of the lobby, the front yard, the gate, and the street step by step.

He came under the statue of Xue Zhenren.

"Now it's my turn to call you Brother Eagle."

Jiang Mu chuckled and used his magic power to make the statue more realistic.

This was the first time he had seen through the life of an ordinary person as a bystander.

There were some unspeakable feelings in his heart, and he felt lost.

Someone once said that there are two deaths in a person's life.

One is to lose your breath, and the other is to be forgotten by everyone.

Master Xue died, but not completely dead, and even lived longer than other cultivators.

The wind blew, and Jiang Mu's figure faded.

This is also a story in the long river of time.
