Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 116 It's Boring
"Don't you dare?"

"Or, I can't," Gu Xu looked into the distance and said in a calm voice, "You know, I don't have enough time, and I can't give her a definite future.

"So in this matter, I can't be willful."

Chen Jisheng looked at the young man's clear face, and sighed softly.

The world only sees his glamorous side, only knows that he has enviable talents and opportunities, but does not know the pain behind him.

He is only 17 years old this year, and he should be a vigorous, unrestrained age.

However, he lived like an ascetic monk, burying all the emotions belonging to young people deeply in his heart.

Precociousness does come at a price.

"Become a saint before the age of 30, I believe you can do it." Chen Jisheng patted the boy's back lightly.

He knew that Gu Xu was a man of firm belief - what he needed was never comfort from others.

"Thank you." Gu Xu smiled.

His life has always been monotonous, just like the boring black and white words in the practice books.

But when that girl appeared, life suddenly had a surprise.

It was like the exquisite food box containing raw fish porridge and sweet-scented osmanthus cake that was handed to him on that rainy morning in early October.

Everything you see, hear, feel, and see begins to take on color.

But rationality told him that he could not be greedy for these colorful colors.

So he took a deep breath and closed his eyes silently.

…………

At this time, Chen Jisheng clearly felt that the evil spirit around the Yamen of Yishui Exorcism Department suddenly formed a huge vortex, rushing towards Gu Xu's position.

"This kid has suddenly realized again!" He was a little surprised.

Although he had known for a long time that Gu Xu possessed extraordinary aptitude for cultivation.

But once you close your eyes, you can enter concentration, and once you enter concentration, you can break through—this is still somewhat beyond ordinary people's cognition.

Seeing this scene, Chen Jisheng immediately took out an "Eternal Brightness Pill" from the small porcelain bottle in his pocket, and stuffed it into Gu Xu's mouth.

As the chief officer in charge of killing demons and eliminating demons in a county, Chen Jisheng always carries a small amount of various pills on his body - in this way, when the monks under him are eroded by Yin Qi and go crazy during their practice, he will In order to deal with it in time to avoid tragedy.

Now, the elixir he carried with him just came in handy.

The moment Gu Xu swallowed the elixir, the "Red Flame True Art" was running rapidly, transforming these luck into scorching and majestic true energy.

...the second song of the underworld...

...the third song of the underworld...

...the fourth song of the underworld...

Under the illumination of the ever-burning lights, Gu Xu strode forward along the winding "Huangquan Road". Before he knew it, he broke through several small realms in a row, and his cultivation directly soared to the "Fourth Song of Huangquan".

Chen Jisheng watched all this silently, deeply moved.

…………

A few minutes later, Gu Xu opened his eyes.

The new moon blows away the thin clouds in the sky, revealing a crescent moon.

The silvery white moonlight fell on the boy's face, making his eyes extraordinarily bright.

He clenched his fist with his right hand, and then slowly released it.

At this moment, he could clearly feel the blazing true essence rushing and roaring in his meridians.

Like a silent volcano, waiting for the moment of eruption.

"Thank you." He turned his head and said to Chen Jisheng again.

This time, what he thanked was the "Eternal Brightness Pill" that Chen Jisheng stuffed into his mouth in time.

"You're welcome," Chen Jisheng said with a faint smile, "As your superior, this is what I should do."

Gu Xu was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Master Chen, I want to do something now."

"whats the matter?"

"You should remember that not long ago, there was an 'evil spirit' level locust tree demon who parasitized a strand of his own soul on a young woman of the Bai family through the 'tiaoshen' ceremony," Gu Xu said flatly. Said, "At that time, Shi Xiaohan and I accepted this task, went to Xunliu Street, and wiped out the soul of this tree demon.

"Now, I want to get rid of the tree demon's body, lest it continue to harm the people of Yishui."

Although Gu Xu's face was calm and his voice was calm, Chen Jisheng could feel that the young man was not in a good mood at the moment.

"Are you sure?" Chen Jisheng asked.

Gu Xu nodded.

"Although the tree demon is an 'evil spirit' level ghost, its strength has dropped significantly after losing a ray of soul fragments," he analyzed seriously, "Although I am only a second-level monk now, I have After the 'Jinghong Pen', I can not lose the wind even in the battle with the monks of the third realm.

"Besides, I still have the 'substitute bracelet' and the 'empty ball' given to me by the chief. Even if I can't defeat it, I can still retreat completely."

Having said that, Gu Xu smiled slightly, and showed Chen Jisheng the "substitute bracelet" on his wrist.

"Okay." Chen Jisheng replied.

It can be seen that Gu Xu has made up his mind a long time ago—his last words were actually said to reassure himself.

"However, Gu Xu, the Exorcist Division has not yet had the task of killing the tree demon, so how will your meritorious service be counted?"

"Let's wait until I come back!" Gu Xu stood up while talking.

He held a slender "Jinghong Pen" in one hand, and used a copper coin to divine the location of the locust tree demon in the other.

Afterwards, he performed the "Meteor Walking the Moon" body technique and disappeared at the end of the street in an instant.

At this moment, Chen Jisheng was the only one left on the steps of the yamen.

The new wind blows head-on.

With depression, irritability, and suffocation, he got into his sleeve.

He looked at the bluestone ground covered with moonlight, saw the hazy white light, and thought it was like a thin layer of snow.

…………

About a quarter of an hour later, Gu Xu's figure reappeared in Chen Jisheng's sight.

His clothes fluttered, his steps were like the wind, and his blue shirt was still spotless.

His eyes are still clear and clean, like a calm lake, reflecting everything in the world, except his heart.

"Master Chen, I'm back."

"What about the dryad?"

"died."

His tone of voice was casual.

It's not like discussing the life and death of an "evil spirit level" ghost, but it's like talking about trivial matters.

At the same time, he took off the jade pendant from his waist, tapped it twice, and placed it in front of Chen Jisheng.

This time the image was brief.

I saw a tall and straight locust tree standing proudly on the hillside.

The branches are strong and powerful.

The thin boy stood under its shade, holding up a slender brush.

Suddenly it snowed on the hillside.

Snow weighs on the branches.

Like the spring breeze blowing, the pear blossoms are in full bloom.

By the time the snow melted, the tall locust tree had withered and turned into ashes.

"It's really boring."

The young man sighed, turned and left.
