The heavens start from Quanzhen swordsmanship

It's noon when the zodiac man goes to sleep.

He was awakened by the delicious smell.

When Huang Dao, who was lying on the ragged mat, moved, Xu Zhiqing, who was roasting pheasant, noticed it.

He turned the simple grill in his hand. The pheasant on the grill was roasted to a golden color, and the hot roast chicken exuded wisps of aroma under the flames.

The aroma wafted to the Zodiac Man, and the tempting Zodiac Man's nose kept twitching.

The Zodiac Man opened his eyes in confusion. He seemed to have had a dream just now, dreaming of a roasted pheasant flying towards him.

When he opened his mouth to bite, the pheasant suddenly disappeared.

Xu Zhiqing saw that his senior brother was still smacking his lips, and he smiled and said: "Senior brother, are you awake? Drink some water first when you wake up. The water is in the jar next to you!"

"I watched the Taoist surgery for a while before and wandered around for a while. I went outside to get some water. I was afraid that the purified water would not be clean, so I boiled the water and put it in a jar!"

Huang Daoren heard Xu Zhiqing's voice. He sat blankly for a while and then muttered: "Junior brother, do you know what you did? I finally dreamed of a roasted pheasant flying towards me. I haven't... …”

Snapped!

A chicken drumstick wrapped in lotus leaves fell accurately into the arms of the Zodiac Man.

"Senior brother, what's so delicious about the roasted chicken in your dream? I'll treat you to roasted chicken legs!"

"drumstick?"

The zodiac man lowered his head and saw a golden chicken leg exposed from his arms.

His eyes suddenly brightened.

The aroma wafting from the chicken legs made his stomach growl unsatisfactorily.

The zodiac man saw the chicken legs and picked them up.

He ignored the burning of the chicken legs and took a bite.

"Hmm... delicious!"

While he was eating, he didn't forget to ask.

"Junior brother, where did you...get the chicken?"

"I thought it was getting close to noon, wasn't it? So I went outside for a walk and happened to encounter a few pheasants, so I picked one up!"

For Xu Zhiqing, going out to kill small animals is completely casual.

I don't know if this world is strange, but he is very hungry after eating food from this world, and he doesn't need to eat the spiritual rice he carries with him at all.

Xu Zhiqing also carried a small bag of spiritual rice.

After verifying that he was very hungry after eating the food of this world, he stopped eating the spiritual rice in his arms.

He will probably have to wander around in this world for a while, so he plans to save food.

"Brother, please eat slowly, this pheasant is quite fat!"

Xu Zhiqing said and tore off half of the remaining roast chicken. He took the lotus leaves on the side and wrapped half of the torn chicken, and then threw it to Senior Brother Huang again.

Huang Daoren also caught it with quick eyes and hands. He looked at the steaming chicken and gnawed the chicken leg inside with his hands until there was only one bone left.

With a chicken leg to cushion his belly, he didn't eat in such a hurry now.

Instead, he reached out and fetched the jug beside him.

After the Zodiac Man poured some water into his mouth, he wiped his mouth.

"Junior brother, thanks to you all the way, senior brother, I'm almost getting fat!"

Huang Daoren said this with emotion. As a Taoist priest who traveled around the world, he basically lived a life of eating and sleeping in the open air.

Where can I eat meat every day?

Ever since he had this junior brother, he had no shortage of meat to eat every day.

Sometimes it's rabbit meat, sometimes it's bird meat, sometimes it's pheasant meat... he's all gained some meat.

"Senior brother, this is what I should do, junior brother!"

Xu Zhiqing said, throwing away a bone in his hand, wiping his mouth and taking out the Taoist book in his arms.

"Senior brother, I'll give this back to you!"

This book was given to him by Senior Brother Huang to read before going to bed.

The above is a brief introduction to some spells. After reading it, he can be regarded as having some understanding of the world of Taoism and law.

Taoism is divided into too many types.

Not every Taoist priest knows all Taoist teachings, and basically has a focus.

Some are good at inviting gods, some are good at reading Feng Shui, some are good at praying for blessings, exorcising evil spirits, etc.

Because everyone's energy is limited, when practicing the sect's mental methods, you need to practice more spells, spells and other knowledge.

After Xu Zhiqing read the Taoist knowledge, all he wanted to do was learn attack-type spells.

No spells are as good as attacks.

The strongest attack type is the thunder spell recognized in the Taoist world.

However, he now knows that if he wants to practice thunder spells, he must improve his cultivation level.

At least, he has to fully practice the 'Five Hearts'.

Just learn some ordinary spells now.

Don't look down on the word 'ordinary'.

These ordinary spells are not so easy to practice, and their power is not as weak as imagined.

Huang Daoren took the book from Xu Zhiqing and stuffed it into the package.

"Junior brother, how are you? Are there any spells you want to learn?"

Xu Zhiqing nodded slightly.

"Senior brother, I want to learn spells to exorcise evil spirits and destroy ghosts!"

He said, thought for a while and then said: "I also want to learn how to draw talismans!"

After hearing what Xu Zhiqing said, Huang Daoren was a little surprised.

"Junior brother, it seems that you really read this book seriously?"

He did not tell Xu Zhiqing that when he first saw these Taoist books, especially some boring introductions to Taoism and the like, he was really confused.

Especially when he thought that there were so many Taoist teachings, they were all recorded in the book, and he could read them if necessary in the future.

It was his idea that made me regret it now.

If he had memorized this, he wouldn't have to carry this book like an encyclopedia of Taoism and Dharma with him.

He didn't expect his junior brother to read it. The book talks about some spells at the front, and the charms at the back... If his junior brother doesn't read it carefully, he shouldn't want to learn the charms, right?

Huang Daoren thought about it, and asked Xu Zhiqing: "For spells such as exorcism, some spells can be used with hand techniques, and some require some props to assist. Which ones are you going to learn?"

"If possible, I would like to learn it!"

There are many types of evil spirits, some are ghosts and some are evil objects, and each requires different methods to deal with them.

He thought it would be best if everyone could learn it.

When Huang Daoren heard what his junior brother said, he could see his appetite.

He shook his head and suggested: "With your current level, just learn some simple ones! Let's learn the spells activated with hand techniques first!"

Xu Zhiqing had no objection.

"Senior brother, just look at the arrangements!"

"Row!"

The zodiac man agreed immediately.

"But learning spells is a time-consuming process, so let's take our time!"

"On the way to Yuqing County, I'll teach you step by step!"

Xu Zhiqing smiled and nodded.

The two of them had eaten and tidied up a little.

Huang Daoren originally wanted to pick up the wires, but found that Xu Zhiqing had packed them away.

"Having you as my junior brother by my side really makes me feel a lot more comfortable!"

"Let's go, let's walk, and I'll tell you the spells and techniques for exorcism!"

The two of them hit the road.

On the road, Xu Zhiqing humbly learned the exorcism spell from the Yellow Daoist.

Ten days passed by in a flash.

The two of them rushed to the Yuqing County area in a hurry.

Huang Daoren took Xu Zhiqing not to the county seat, but to a town of Sankou under Yuqing County. When the two of them arrived outside the town, Huang Taoren also said the exorcism spell to Xu Zhiqing.

"Junior brother, you have now learned how to use the exorcism spell. You must match the oral formula, manual formula and the true energy in your body!"

"It's a pity that there is no evil thing for you to verify at the moment!"

"By the way, exorcism spells are often used in medical treatment, construction, and the like!"

Xu Zhiqing listened to his senior brother's introduction. He recited the formula silently while holding the formula in his hands, and then mobilized the true energy in his body.

Only when the three are combined into one can a spell be used.

"Junior brother, when you reach a certain level, such as the Great Perfection of Five Hearts and the Perfection of Hunyuan Dan, you won't even need to recite the mantra!"

Xu Zhiqing hummed slightly.

These days, with the continuous popularization of science by his senior brother, he also understands why he needs to recite the mantra.

There is a god three feet above the head, and the mantra borrows more from the power of the god.

There are countless gods in the four directions of heaven and earth. When exorcising evil spirits, the gods invited are different, and the effects of exorcism are also different.

Therefore, the formula is very important.

Huang Daoren told Xu Zhiqing but did not continue.

He is going to the home of Mr. Huang, one of the three.

The so-called land tycoon is a wealthy family in Sankou Town. The father's surname is Huang. His family owns more than a thousand acres of fertile land and runs a pawn business.

Huang Daoren came to Mr. Huang's house once. After he brought Xu Zhiqing to Sankou Town, he went directly to the door.

Dang Dang Dang!

Huang Daoren took Xu Zhiqing outside, and he went straight forward and knocked on the door of Huang's mansion.

squeak~

The door was opened from the inside, and a thin man wearing a black melon cap poked his head out of the door.

When this man saw Huang Dao and Xu Zhiqing standing at the door, he looked at them with vigilance.

"Taoist priest, who are you looking for?"

In the eyes of many people, Taoist priests are more like liars.

Ordinary people rarely interact with Taoist priests.

"This is for your own good, little brother. My surname is Huang, and I have an appointment with your master!"

The thin man frowned when he heard the Zodiac Man said he had an appointment.

"It's the Zodiac! Please wait a moment, I'll ask the master!"

boom.

After the man finished speaking, he closed the door.

When Xu Zhiqing saw this, he turned to look at Huang Daoren.

"Senior brother, why do we Taoists seem to have no status?"

Huang Daoren turned to look at Xu Zhiqing.

"Junior brother, who gave you the illusion that we Taoist priests have great status? We rely on praying for blessings, exorcising evil spirits, etc., while others make a living by selling, planting, and operating. Everyone is just trying to make a living!"

"Aside from those officials and country gentry, what status do we Taoist priests have?"

Xu Zhiqing's prose is thoughtful.

Taoist priests also need three meals a day to fill their stomachs.

There are not so many evil spirits in the world, and not every Taoist priest has real abilities.

Therefore, Taoist priests are just a profession to make a living in the world.

Just as Xu Zhiqing was thinking about this, the door of Huang Mansion was opened from the inside again.

This time, Mr. Shi Huang came out.

Mr. Huang looks to be about fifty years old, with short hair, thick hair mixed with a little white hair. He was wearing a black robe and mandarin jacket, and old white-soled gangster shoes.

After Mr. Huang came out, his eyes turned around Xu Zhiqing and then focused on Huang Daoren.

"Daozhang Huang, you are so good at keeping me waiting!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Daoren cupped his hands and apologized: "I really had something to do, so... fortunately, I came over in a hurry as soon as I finished my work!"

"Mr. Huang, could it be that the amulet I gave you doesn't work?"

When Mr. Huang heard what Huang Taoist said, he looked around and finally took out a triangular yellow paper talisman from his body.

"Taoist Priest, look!"

Huang Taoist reached out and took it.

After taking a look, his expression changed.

He said in a deep voice: "Mr. Huang, did you encounter anything in the past seven days?"

Xu Zhiqing glanced at the triangular talisman in Senior Brother Huang's hand. The center of the triangular talisman was obviously gray.

Based on the knowledge he learned from his senior brother.

This triangular talisman should have resisted an invasion of evil spirits.

When Mr. Huang saw Taoist Huang's expression change, he looked left and right again. He was about to say something, but finally chose to get out of the way.

"Taoist Master, let's talk inside!"

The zodiac man nodded.

As soon as Xu Zhiqing and Huang Daoren entered the gate with Mr. Huang, the servant behind them closed the door.

The two of them paused slightly.

Seeing this, Mr. Huang hurriedly explained: "Two Taoist priests, don't blame me, I'm afraid someone will disturb us!"

He said in a pretentious manner: "Please! Let's talk in detail in the living room!"

Huang Daoren nodded slightly and led Xu Zhiqing into the living room.

"Two Taoist priests, please sit down!"

After the two of them sat down, Mr. Huang invited them to sit down and turned to order his servants to serve tea.

Huang Daoren sat down, but he saw Xu Zhiqing standing at the door without moving.

"Junior brother?"

He looked at Xu Zhiqing who stopped and looked over suspiciously.

"Oh it's all right!"

Xu Zhiqing said and withdrew his gaze as if nothing had happened.

Just now, he seemed to notice a chilling gaze looking over at him.

But when he looked over, he saw nothing.

Huang Daoren glanced at his junior brother strangely, but he didn't say anything in the end.

He took out the triangular talisman and said while taking it apart: "Mr. Huang, if my guess is correct, have you encountered anything else recently?"

Master Huang pursed his lips, looked at Daoist Huang, hesitated, and finally said: "To be honest with Daoist Huang, I almost strangled myself to death in my sleep three days ago!"

He said, tugging at the clothes around his neck.

Xu Zhiqing looked around and found that there were several green and black handprints under Mr. Huang's neck.

The Zodiac also saw it.

But he didn't say anything, but flicked the talisman in his hand.

"Master Huang, if it weren't for this talisman, you might have lost your life three days ago!"

Mr. Huang looked at the talisman paper in Huang Taoist's hand and found that there was a missing piece in the center of the talisman paper.

"At the beginning, I folded this amulet for you in front of Mr. Huang. The amulet was complete at that time! Now...he has helped you bear the disaster!"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Huang stood up quickly. He bowed to Taoist Huang and asked for help: "Please save me, Mr. Taoist!"

Upon hearing this, Daoren Huang did not agree directly, but frowned and said: "Master Huang, your situation this time is unusual. I might... it will be difficult to handle!"

When Xu Zhiqing heard what his senior brother said, he pursed his lips silently.

While passing through other towns, the senior brother also took action to do something.

Whenever the price is discussed, Senior Brother Huang always says this.

In other towns, those things are not weird, they are more just some psychological effects, or the aura is not right.

And this time...

Xu Zhiqing thought of the uncomfortable look from before. (End of chapter)
