Lord of Earth Fiend

Chapter 200
Although the Panlong River is not as good as the Jinling River, it is still a big river, more than three feet wide. The water flow around Zhongzhou Fucheng is not turbulent and flows slowly.

Where there is water, there will be villages and families on the shore. When it is time to eat, the smoke from the cooking pots will curl up, making it appear peaceful and peaceful.

The place where Xie Zizi and Xie Bin's accident happened was not here, but somewhere in the lower reaches.

But the awning boat was drifting down, and no one could determine the specific location where he was killed.

This is the first level of difficulty in this matter. How many manpower are needed to search such a long river?
Anyway, it is difficult for the Yamen to start investigating, and they need to send out capable personnel.

But for Chen Jin and Gu Leyou, it was nothing.

Practitioners have their own magical means to find evil spirits and determine their whereabouts.

Wearing a mask and changing his face, Chen Jin looked ordinary: "Taoist priest, should we search along the way? Or should we get a boat and go directly to the river?"

"Look for it along the way. The opponent is probably a snake demon. The water is its home field, which is not good for us."

"Well, let's just drive away and treat it as a self-driving journey."

Got it!
The carriage started running again.

Chen Jin stopped staying in the carriage and sat on the shaft.

This carriage was improved later and is quite wide. Two people can sit on it without being too crowded. It also has a backrest and soft cushions, making it comfortable to sit on it.

In the Qian Dynasty, there was a remarkable feature: there was a world inside the city and a world outside the city.

The outskirts of the city are pretty good. The further you go out, the more deserted it becomes. Fortunately, there are dirt roads that allow carriages to pass.

Walk slowly, don't rush, and at night, stop and rest, just like camping.

This is a common occurrence for the two of them, and there won't be any problems.

Gu Leyou liked this kind of time very much. Since he left Jiangzhou, he and Chen Jin had traveled together, sitting and talking frequently along the way.

He said it was "discussing the Tao", but in fact he asked Chen Jin for advice.

Ask for advice on swordsmanship and various earth-shaking techniques.

As the saying goes, "Those who are masters come first." With Chen Jin's cultivation and practice, he can indeed be Gu Leyou's master.

Teacher and friend.

Chen Jin had nothing to hide from him and answered all questions.The experience gained can be said to be “taught with everything one has.”

In Chen Jin's view, these things are nothing to hide. It's nothing more than giving them peaches and plums and repaying them with wine.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Gu Leyou will improve by leaps and bounds after hearing this.

Not that scientific.

If Gu Leyou wants to make great progress and breakthroughs, he cannot do without his own understanding and hard work.

How about saying, "The master leads you in, and cultivation depends on oneself"?

But it has to be said that there are two different concepts between someone taking it and no one taking it, especially for casual cultivators.

Gu Leyou's progress is visible to the naked eye, and he has reached the edge of the third level of "occupying the palace".

During this period, he went out of his body several times at night, but thanks to Chen Jin's protection, he was safe and sound.

Otherwise, Gu Leyou wouldn't dare to leave his body.

Without leaving the body, Yinshen will always be flowers in the greenhouse. It is difficult to make progress, and the realm of cultivation will stop here.

It was also during the protection that Gu Leyou realized the beauty of Chen Jin's calligraphy.

To be precise, it is the literary spirit and charm between the lines.

It may seem common to say that you can feel at ease, calm, relaxed and happy, but it is extremely difficult to achieve in certain situations.

Practitioners, in particular, have many more distracting thoughts and delusions than ordinary people, and a thought will pop up if they don't pay attention.

These thoughts are all kinds of strange and bizarre, and after they evolve, they will become even more overwhelming.

How can we practice if our mind is unstable?
Therefore, the Taoist Dharma Door will be accompanied by the method of mindfulness, which is used to stabilize the mind and prevent it from falling into obstacles in practice and going crazy.

But Gu Leyou, a casual cultivator, did not dare to think too much.

I don’t know how to do it, but fortunately I have friends.

His friends gave him strength and support, but the effect was not bad. In short, he could always remain stable every time his Yin Shen left his body.

The initial stage of out-of-body experience is often the most dangerous, but after you get through it and gradually get used to it, the rest becomes much more practical.

Gu Leyou used to think that Chen Jin's best treasure was the Wushou Golden Body Powder, but now it seems that his literary spirit and charm are not bad, and it is something he owns and can continue to produce.

Chen Jin knew in his heart that the simple effect of literary energy and charm was not so magical, but after using the Seven-Star Inkstone, he received a large amount of blessings, which complemented each other.

According to this inference, if all four of the Four Treasures of the Study are treasures, wouldn’t the effect immediately take off?
But it is not easy to gather them all.

I have no clue at all, and I don’t even know where to look.

Then I thought about it, you can't be too greedy as a person. Together with greed, delusions abound, and something happened again.

Camping in the wild, Gu Leyou built a campfire, then went hunting quickly, and finally brought back a plump wild duck.

In the evening we had roast duck with wine.

For two consecutive days, I walked along the river bank and found nothing.

On the third day, it was dusk.

Looking at the setting sun in the west, Gu Leyou said: "Scholar, if we can't find him again, we should turn around and go back."

If he doesn't go back, Su's people will definitely become anxious.

And the wedding is approaching, so there is not so much time to waste.

He came out to slay the demon, but it was difficult to calm down, but what kind of demon was the other party?Where it is, I don't know.

What is certain is that monsters and evil spirits have one thing in common: they both have a strong sense of territory.

As long as you find the place, you can find this beast.

The problem is that the area is too big and difficult to find.

"it is good."

Chen Jin replied that he did not force it.

Gu Leyou suddenly pointed: "There is a ferry ahead."

In fact, they encountered many ferries and awning boats along the way, but after investigation, there was nothing suspicious.

There is a small ferry in front of us now. There is a awning boat parked beside the ferry. The boat looks old and mottled.

A red round-bellied lantern is raised on a pole at the bow of the boat.

Chen Jin and Gu Leyou looked at each other, their expressions changed.

The carriage rattled and came to the ferry.

Gu Leyou got out of the car and called, "Is there anyone on board?"

"Yes, yes."

What emerged was a stout man in old clothes with dark skin. He looked like a boatman who had experienced many vicissitudes of life. He looked around and asked, "Are the two gentlemen going to cross the river? Or stay the night?"

"Sleeping overnight" is a jargon term, which means secret prostitution. The boat girl is probably the boatman's wife.

In this industry, husband and wife teams are very common.He works as a ferryman and sells himself, making money through hard work.

Life is not easy.

Gu Leyou took a few steps forward and asked, "What's it like to spend the night? What's the price?" The boatman asked again, "Did someone introduce me here?"

"Introduction? No, we are just passers-by. We are tired of walking and want to have some fun."

Gu Leyou smiled and said, as if he was acting in character: "What? You need to be introduced by someone to spend the night in a place like this?"

The boatman hurriedly said: "The main reason is that the place is a bit remote. If no one introduces me, it may be difficult to find it."

Gu Leyou waved his hand: "Without further ado, I want to take a look at what the lady looks like first. If she is too ugly, forget it. Ugly girls tend to do mischief, and I am not interested in her."

The boatman apologized and said with a smile: "My wife is different from ordinary boat girls. She is very pretty and the price is also more expensive..."

"As long as people are good, money is nothing. I have plenty of money."

Gu Leyou showed an air of wealth and wealth, flashing a piece of white money in his hand.

The boatman's eyes suddenly shone, and he shouted: "My dear, come out and show me."

Then there was a soft sound, and a woman walked out of the tent. She had a slim figure. Although she was dressed in ordinary clothes, she had an unspeakable charm in her movements.

Her face is even more delicate and beautiful. With this look, she would be a middle-class figure in a brothel, but she is working as a prostitute on this small boat.

Gu Leyou clapped his hands and praised: "It really looks good... By the way, there are two of us here. I wonder if the young lady will accept them together? The price can be doubled."

Chen Jin: "..."

This guy really is a wretched person and has not changed at all. Even now, he is still thinking about his fellow men.

The stout boatman smiled and said: "The two of you are not in the way. Even if the elder falls in love with the younger one, I can still come and serve him."

Gu Leyou: "...You, forget it, I can tell at a glance that you are not a human being."

"I also see that you are not here to spend the night. Unexpectedly, you attracted two master monks."

As the boatman spoke, his figure suddenly grew taller, like a black iron tower.

In addition to his height, his face also changed strangely, revealing his true colors.

A big strange face, small eyes, and a big mouth, a bit like a pig dragon.

Its previous appearance was clearly that of a painting.

Skin painting is not only for the face, but also for the whole body.

The boatman showed his true body, but the girl disappeared, hiding somewhere.

"Where are the women?"

Gu Leyou was surprised. Due to his preconception, he believed that the woman was a more ferocious monster and was quite afraid of her.

Now that he was gone, he felt even more guilty, worried that the other party was hiding in the dark, and that it would be impossible to guard against him.

"She just got back into the awning."

Chen Jin stared closely and couldn't hide it from his eyes.

Gu Leyou said: "Scholar, then I'll leave her to you."

With that said, he faced the Pig Woman Dragon Monster and started a fight.

This monster is tall and strong, with great strength. It does not use weapons and will smash with its fists.

A pair of fists is actually a bit more ferocious than a hammer.

"Invincible!"

Gu Leyou quickly made a judgment in his mind and formulated a strategy to deal with it.

After asking Chen Jin for advice, Gu Leyou's fastest progress was not in spells. After all, spells were limited by the soul. Even if he understood many principles, it would be in vain if the realm of the soul could not keep up.

In contrast, the development of swordsmanship is more obvious.

Chen Jin mastered the "Eight Swords of Yongzi", which, as the name suggests, is the Confucian Temple swordsmanship.However, this sword is based on the "sword skills" in Disha after all, which is the same.

Taoist Izumo is not good at swordsmanship, so Gu Leyou's attack sword skills have always been at a so-so level. However, because he started from a low starting point, he seems to be making rapid progress.

He was holding the Red Moon Sword, and relying on the power of the magic sword, he was able to fight the Pig Woman Dragon Monster on a equal footing without falling behind.

However, Chen Jin's eyes were venomous, and after only a moment of looking at him, he knew that Gu Leyou could not hold on for long: before he entered the third level of martial arts, his energy and blood could not be sustained, and it would be disadvantageous to fight for a long time.

On the other hand, the pig-shaped dragon monster looks clumsy, but it has thick skin and rough flesh, and is extremely powerful. If you don't pay attention, if you get slapped by it, you will be seriously injured even if you don't die.

But Chen Jin did not rush to help. Instead, he was wary of the situation on the other side. He felt alarmed and shouted: "Taoist, be careful!"

Gu Leyou hadn't reacted yet, but when he saw the vast whiteness in front of him, he couldn't tell what it was for a moment. His head was covered and his whole body was restrained.

network!
This is actually a spider web.

His heart skipped a beat, and he didn't care about his image. He rolled around like a lazy donkey, just in time to avoid the heavy blow from the pig-woman dragon monster.

The spider web that tied him up was slippery and had a unique fishy smell. It was so tough that he couldn't break free. When the Pig Dragon Monster arrived, he punched him down again.

If this move is taken seriously, wouldn't it become meat sauce?
Gu Leyou was shocked. The next moment, his body was tied into a rice dumpling and was grabbed by Chen Jin, and he was freed in time.

boom!
The Pig Woman Dragon Monster's heavy fist hit the ground, creating a crater.

Zheng!
Chen Jin had already drawn his sword, using a fine iron sword. The blade of the sword made a clear sound, drew a ray of light, and left a long bloodstain on the strong shoulder of the Pig Woman Dragon Monster.

With one strike of sword, you can see the difference.

The magic sword used by Gu Leyou had previously slashed the Zhupolong monster two or three times, but it had not penetrated the flesh.

But Chen Jin used an ordinary sword and saw red with just one strike.

This is the difference in swordsmanship.

"careful!"

This time it was Gu Leyou's turn to remind him. He saw a spider web falling from the sky and heading towards Chen Jin.

If caught, Chen Jin would follow in his footsteps and be tied into a rice dumpling, making it difficult to move.

This spider web is really a bit evil, I don’t know what material it is made of.

But no, it was slippery and sticky, as if it had just been spit out, and I felt sick just thinking about it.

What surprised Gu Leyou even more was that he couldn't detect where the spider web was shot from, and who was it?

Invisibility?

A thought passed through me.

If the other party's invisibility can hide from his and Chen Jin's eyes and ears, what does that mean?
These thoughts were in the flash of lightning. Chen Jin's body was light, he avoided the cobwebs and struck out with his backhand sword.

The sword's light was more than ten feet long, and it stabbed somewhere in the void accurately.

Ah!
There was a shrill scream, and then a ferocious figure appeared, only for a moment, and then disappeared again.

Gu Leyou was lying on the ground. From his angle, he could see clearly that his figure was the size of a millstone, with many feet and a lot of hair...

Chen Jin pursued with his sword, but was immediately stopped by the Pig Woman Dragon monster. The monster became very angry and rushed towards him like crazy.

This time, it played into Chen Jin's heart.In his field of vision, the opponent's tall body was full of flaws, making him a target for the sword.

The iron sword flew out of his hand, which was a feint, and he turned on the sword with his backhand, holding the sword of conservation in his hand.

From the iron sword to the magic sword, I have already mastered it and am very comfortable with it.

Perhaps to outsiders, changing swords like this is a bit unnecessary, but in fact, it can confuse the opponent.

The magic sword was chopped down, and a huge head flew up...
