Longevity begins with loose cultivation

After a little thought, Lu Zhong decided to go.

The Chen family is a cultivating family, and the higher-ups may know a lot of things. Rather than wait until they arrive in Fangshi and try to find out by themselves, it is better to take this opportunity to see if they can learn anything.

After all, he really cared about the "law of the underworld".

So Lu Zhong cupped his hands and said:
"Then fellow Daoist Lao will lead the way."

Soon, Lu Zhong met the head of the Chen family.

Unexpectedly, the Patriarch of the Chen family was extremely young. He looked to be in his early fifties, a young man with a short beard, and he was currently in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.

"Sorry, I invited fellow Taoists here late at night. I am Guihan Chen Xuyang, the head of the Chen family!"

"Sans Xiu Lu Zhong." Lu Zhong cupped his hands at him and said calmly.

The two were polite, and then the host and guest were seated.

After chatting for a while, Lu Zhong brought the topic to the second day in the sky.

It's a pity that after a while of side-talking, although Chen Xuyang tried his best to cooperate, it seemed that he didn't know much more than Fang Pan, and he couldn't spit out anything else except for a few vague conjectures.

Seeing this, Lu Zhong had no choice but to give up.

Chen Xuyang showed embarrassment, and in order to ease the atmosphere, he talked about business.

"I heard that Taoist friends are very familiar with Yinjiwen, and can even use it to speak? If this is the case, can you trouble Taoist friends to help me interpret this document? This thing is very important to my Chen family. It is not a matter of life and death. It’s not an exaggeration, if fellow daoists can decipher it, I’m willing to offer a wisp of golden energy as a reward!”

As he spoke, he handed out a piece of yellow paper on the table and set out the conditions.

Lu Zhong glanced at the paper, and found that the words on it had been shuffled and rearranged on purpose, presumably, as the Patriarch of the Chen family said, there was some big secret hidden in it for the sake of keeping it secret.

However, even if it is deliberately disrupted, if he wants to interpret it, it is still not difficult at all.

The point is, why should he help.

But after communication, Lu Zhong knew the effect of Jin Yuanqi.

It originally came from the invasion of the Great Yellow Spring, and after the law of the Yellow Spring was hung high, the power of the immortal monks began to decline. In order to solve this problem, there was a spiritual thing commonly known as the "five elements vitality", which was produced by the Dazong who ruled Xizhou. The function of the door is to temporarily restore Xianxiu's strength.In addition to the gold vitality, there are four other five-element vitality, all of which can have the same effect.

According to what Chen Xuyang said, a ray of golden vitality is worth a lot, at least it is worth nearly ten thousand spirit stones.

Lu Zhong was skeptical about this.

But in order to get Jin Yuanqi, he decided to accept the order.

After half an hour, the interpretation of Yinji Wen was completed.

As for this, Lu Zhong deliberately delayed, otherwise with his strength, he would be able to decipher it within half a quarter of an hour.

After handing it over to Chen Xuyang, the other party really ordered someone to send Jin Yuanqi.

"Sorry, I have something else to do, so I won't be with fellow Taoist!" Chen Xuyang said apologetically.

After saying this, he left in a hurry.

Lu Zhong didn't care, but looked at the glass bottle in his hand.

Jin Yuan Qi looks similar to clouds, and it is also in the form of white mist. It feels somewhat similar to heaven and earth Yuan Qi to him, but they are two completely different things.

"Xianxiu can use this to restore his strength..."

Thinking of this, Lu Zhong couldn't help but connect the vitality of the five elements with the air.

The same can restore strength.

Could it be that there is some mystery hidden in it?
Looking at the gold vitality in his hand, Lu Zhong resisted the idea of ​​using it up. After all, this thing can be used to restore strength, so it would be a pity to waste it like this.

Besides, right now, he is in the Yaksha desert.

If his prediction is correct, there must be an opportunity to use it soon.

As soon as Lu Zhong walked out the door, someone came up to meet him.

It was the girl with a white turban named Chun'er, accompanied by two chocobos. When she saw Lu Zhong coming out of the hall, she showed a relieved expression and said with a smile: "Master Lu, your accommodation has been arranged. It's on the turtle cart we got on just now, please follow Chun'er for the exact location."

"Then it's time to work." Lu Zhong rode on the chocobo and said with a light smile.

on the road.

From time to time, a group of lanterns can be seen passing by the turtle cart.

"what are these?"

"Immortal Master, are you talking about these guide lights?" Chun'er, who was leading the way, turned around and said with a smile, "They are necessary magic weapons for traveling through the Yaksha desert. They were bought by the owner at a large price. Light them up to illuminate the road ahead without being afraid of being attacked by ghosts."

"Oh?" Lu Zhong was surprised when he heard this.

According to his observation, these lanterns have no function of exorcising evil spirits, they are just flying lanterns.

If you want to say that it is weird, it is exuding a light fragrance.

"Bought at a great price..."

Lu Zhong felt that if he guessed correctly, these lanterns should be "travel money".

"really interesting!"

He smiled lightly and didn't think about it any further.

Soon, Lu Zhong arrived at his residence.

It is a clean guest room, the furnishings inside are very simple, only the necessary spirit gathering array and privacy restriction, plus a table and two chairs, and a newly changed bedding, fluffy and soft to the touch, with a little warmth, the table A vase of fresh flowers is placed on the table, filling the room with a sweet fragrance.

It can be seen that the Chen family did arrange it carefully.

When he entered, he sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes and meditated.

Not for cultivation.

But living in a foreign land, Lu Zhong really felt insecure, so he planned to use meditation instead of sleep.

In this way, the night passed quickly.

At dawn the next day, there was a knock on the door.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, how did you rest last night?" Old Taoist Fang Pan stood outside the door and said with a smile on his face.

"It's okay, fellow daoists came so early, did something happen to them?" Lu Zhong glanced around, and found that the faces of the other people in the convoy were as usual. It doesn't look like it's been attacked.

"Of course not, I just told my friends about something." The old man shook his head and said.

Immediately afterwards, he continued: "According to the current speed of travel, we will pass through a canyon at noon, and there are many ghosts entrenched in it. Even if there are guide lights, the convoy carrying a large number of living people may not be able to pass safely. Don't be afraid." Ten thousand is just in case, so please make preparations in advance.”

"No problem." Lu Zhong replied.

After the old Taoist finished speaking, he explained some precautions before leaving.

After watching the other party leave, Lu Zhong saw that there were many food stalls in the convoy, and smelling the tempting aroma, he couldn't help but feel greedy. Go shopping and taste exotic delicacies.

Have to say, the taste of the food is not bad.

After such a round of wandering, he completely consumed nearly a hundred spirit stones.

It can be described as a big feast.

As the sky hangs high on the second day, the temperature gradually rises, and the speed of the convoy begins to accelerate. More than a dozen turtle pack vehicles are lined up in a winding formation, fully pulled out for a length of mile, and just like this, they are traveling in a barren area. On the deserted Yasha wasteland.

At this moment, a bell sounded from the watchtower.

"Clang clang clang!"

"Everyone pay attention! Unidentified smoke and dust have been found ahead, and they have shot towards the scout team that explored the road, and are currently rushing towards the convoy!" Someone stood on the watchtower and shouted loudly with a magic speaker.

As soon as these words came out, the whole team was in a commotion.

The pack turtle, which was moving fast, slowly slowed down under the control of the beast master.Soon they formed a circle and retracted their heads and feet.

It seems to have become a dock.

Everyone is ready to fight, and Lu Zhong is no exception.

Soon, there was smoke and dust pouring in from a distance, and it could be vaguely seen that it was a group of wolf cavalry. The thing they were riding under their crotch was a huge withered and yellow wolf. All of them were wearing heavy armor, and the surface was painted black with paint, which seemed to be full of evil spirits.

At this time, Lu Zhong noticed that these cavalrymen were wrapped so tightly that not even a little bit of skin was exposed.Reminiscent of the guide lights, he had some guesses about the origin of this group of cavalry.

After a while, those knights rushed to the chariot formation.

One of them raised his hand and threw out two heads, allowing their bones to roll to the ground.

Chen Xuyang didn't know when he appeared, and he was still followed by the old Taoist Fangpan. His face was sinking at the moment, but he was still suppressing his anger. He rushed over and cupped his hands and said, "Commander Fang, I don't know how my Chen family offended you, so I need to trouble you!" Dajia, come and run for yourself?"

"Hahaha!!!" A knight laughed.

I saw him riding a wolf, walking out of the team slowly, and said darkly: "I can't say I'm offended, it's just that I didn't buy enough lamps. My general has spoken, and the previous forty-four lamps are invalid. Now if you want to pass through the Yaksha Wasteland, you have to get it." Buy seventy-four!"

"Seventy-four lamps! Could it be that... can't we be flexible?" Chen Xuyang's complexion became even uglier when he heard this. He bought forty-four lamps before, and almost wiped out the Chen family's fortune. If you have extra spirit stones, you can buy the extra thirty guide lights.

"No money? I don't care about that!" Commander Fang sneered.

Immediately afterwards, his eyes swept across the crowd, and he said meaningfully: "In my opinion, Chen Daoyou has no money, he is clearly sitting on a treasure mountain and doesn't know it! Look at all these people, not all of them are spirits who can walk Shi, as long as fellow daoists are willing to give three thousand people, then the guiding lights can be reached!"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help turning their eyes to Chen Xuyang.

The latter's complexion changed, and he fell silent.

Lu Zhong watched this scene quietly, and didn't intend to make his own decisions. How Chen Xuyang chooses, even if it is really like what Guixiu said below, sending [-] people out, is still the Chen family's business.He is just a hitchhiker, and he has no responsibility and no need to get involved too much.

Yes, he has seen it.

The pair of cavalrymen who came were all ghost cultivators.

As time passed by, Chen Xuyang's forehead was sweating more and more.Just as the ghost cultivators grew impatient, he finally made a decision.

"Everyone listens to the order and prepares to fight!"

Following the words, all the Chen family members on the giant tortoise cheered.

"Long live!"

"Long live the owner!"

"well done!"

Originally, everyone thought that this new Patriarch, who had just taken office, would choose to trade with his clansmen in order to survive, just like the previous Patriarch.

Unexpectedly, the result exceeded their expectations.

"Is this your decision?"

The wolf knight smiled sadly, and as if he had taken a deep look at Chen Xuyang, he took up the reins and turned around.

Before leaving, leave a word:
"Since you don't want to spend money, then pay with your life! See you later!"

Wait for the cavalry to leave.

"Ah!" The old Taoist walked to Lu Zhong's side and sighed heavily.

Although Chen Xuyang's decision won the support of the clan, it also brought huge troubles.The ghost cultivator stationed in the Yasha wasteland must be furious because of this, and the convoy is about to face disaster.

"If I knew this earlier, Pindao would never accept this commission!"

The old Taoist sighed for a while, then turned to Lu Zhong and said, "Friend Lu Daoist, if you really can't stop it later, you can run away. It's better to escape one by one, than to die in the hands of ghost cultivators and end up alone." Even death will not end in peace!"

Hearing this, Lu Zhong's face flashed with surprise.

"Why, ghost cultivators are very powerful?"

"It's more than just strong!" The old man became excited, waving his hands and said, "You know, the army of Huangquan entrenched in the Yaksha Wasteland is specially designed to confront the Illusion Sect in the south, and there are certainly tens of millions of ghosts inside. There are millions of them. Just one percent of them will be enough to overwhelm the convoy!"

As he was talking, he found that Lu Zhong's expression was wrong.

Normal people would at least change their countenance when they heard this.

But this one, on the contrary, was relieved.

Wait... relieved?
The old Taoist rolled his eyes, as if he realized something, he took a quick breath, and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, is it possible that you have a way to deal with the coming Huangquan ghost army?"

"It can't be said to be resolved, it can only be said to be repelled." Lu Zhong made up indiscriminately.

To be honest, he admired Chen Xuyang's decision.

Among the selfish monks, the style of the Patriarch of the Chen family reminded Lu Zhong of an old friend, so he thought of helping.

With a flip of his hand, he showed three breaking evil talismans.

In addition, there is a small True Yang Talisman.

"Hiss, so many yang energy talismans!" The old Taoist couldn't help but gasp when he saw those talismans clearly. Now that the strength of immortal cultivators is being suppressed, the yang energy derived from the essence of the sun is being suppressed. The strength is relatively small, so it retains a good power.

Immediately afterwards, the old man became ecstatic.

"Enough, definitely enough! With so many yang qi talismans, even if Huang Quan's partial army arrives, Pindao will have the confidence to repel them. When the Huang Quan ghost army reacts, by then we have already left the Yasha Wasteland, and even if they Even if you want to take revenge, it will be too late!"

But he quickly thought of another problem.

That is, why did Lu Zhong hand over these talismans?
Today, when the underworld invaded, the yang energy between the heaven and the earth became thinner and thinner day by day, and all kinds of yang energy spiritual plants began to gradually disappear.It is also for this reason that the price of yang energy talismans is getting higher and higher day by day. There are so many talismans that are worth at least tens of thousands of spirit stones.

According to the old way, I am afraid that even the Foundation Establishment Pill can be replaced!

Just as he was hesitating, a voice came from behind.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, I have taken all these talismans!" Chen Xuyang came out from around the corner.

As early as when Lu Zhong and Lu Zhong were talking, he had already arrived nearby. He intended to come to discuss countermeasures, but he never thought that there would be a big surprise waiting.Now that he heard that Lu Zhong possessed a large number of talismans, which were even enough to repel Guixiu, how could he not seize the opportunity?

"Three dozen second-tier ones, one third-tier one... Calculated according to the market price, it is [-] spirit stones."

"I don't know if I calculate this way, is fellow daoist satisfied?"

As Chen Xuyang said, he looked nervously at Lu Zhong.

The latter smiled lightly.

"Yes, yes, but what will Chen Daoyou pay for?"

"A piece of news!" Chen Xuyang said in a deep voice.
