Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 15 He Xiangu gives Chen Yun a try

Ten days passed by in a flash.

During this period, Chen Yun took the Foundation Building Decoction again, and then made another spiritual decoction based on the medicinal materials he had accumulated previously.

The second time I took the Foundation Building Decoction, the effect was better than the first time.

He felt that about half of the meridians in his body, except for the Ren and Du meridians, had been cleared away.

Perhaps because of the increased number of lesions, Chen Yun's food intake has increased greatly these days, and he seems to have grown taller.

This evening, Chen Yun and Li Sigang had just packed up the medicinal materials and were preparing to eat in the canteen.

Suddenly, Lin Chen and Zhang Qian walked in from outside.

As soon as Lin Chen came in, he said: "Junior Brother Chen, Junior Brother Li, come down the mountain tonight."

Li Si said happily: "Are you going to drive out the ghosts?"

Zhang Gan smiled and said, "What else?"

There had been no news from Senior Brother Lin Chen for ten days, and Chen Yun had even forgotten about going down the mountain to exorcise ghosts.

Now that he saw the two people coming to the door, Chen Yun was looking forward to it again.

He really wanted to see a ghost and see what it was like.

The group of people walked outside talking and laughing.

Just left the mountain gate.

Lin Chen took out a few pieces of yellow paper from the small bag on his waist, "Brothers, each of you take two and put them on your feet."

These yellow papers were cut out to look like armored horses riding horses.

Chen Yun didn't know what this was and asked, "What is this?"

Lin Chen reached out and handed him two pieces of yellow paper and said, "Oh, this is the armor and horse talisman."

"Jiama Talisman?" Chen Yun looked confused.

Zhang Gan explained with a smile: "The Jiama Talisman is a kind of talisman specially used for traveling. After affixing it, you can travel thousands of miles a day and eight hundred miles at night. Our Zhongnan Mountain is fifty miles away from Xigou City. If there is no Jiama Talisman, I am afraid that You may not be able to get there even if you walk for half a day.”

Oh!
It turned out to be a talisman on the way.

Chen Yun looked at the two armor and horse talismans in his hand with curiosity.

Traveling a thousand miles in a day means traveling [-] kilometers in twelve hours.

In other words, Jia Ma Fu can reach a speed of 42 kilometers per hour during the day.

If you travel at night for 33 kilometers, that is [-] kilometers per hour.

Almost as good as electric cars.

Chen Yun imitated Lin Chen, Zhang Qian and others and attached the armor and horse talisman to his calf.

The next moment, he felt a magical power coming from the two armor-horse talismans, as if his body became much "lighter".

Lin Chen gave the order: "Let's go."

As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped forward and swooped out.

Zhang Qian and Li Si seemed to have used the armor and horse talisman, and followed them very skillfully.

It was the first time for Chen Yun to play such an interesting thing, and he also stepped forward.

Something magical happened. He just felt the wind blowing under his feet, supporting his body and "floating" forward.

He walked several meters in one step!
"Tsk, it is indeed a product of the world of cultivating immortals. It is really magical."

Chen Yunjian followed quickly.

The four of them were running through the mountains and forests at a sprint speed of [-] meters, yet they felt as if they were walking on flat ground.

Because there was a lot of wind in their ears, everyone didn't chat while they were on their way.

……

After half an hour's journey.

A group of four people came to Xigou City.

When they arrived at the city gate, Lin Chen took the initiative to stop and asked all three of them to put away their armor and horse talismans.

Subsequently, the four people went in after being inspected by the garrison guards.

As soon as he entered, Chen Yun was hit by a gust of fragrant wind at the corner of Qingshi Street.

"Ouch!"

A clear voice sounded.

Chen Yun's forehead hurt from being hit, but he still looked around hurriedly.

He saw a fifteen or sixteen year old girl in an emerald green dress being knocked down and fell to the ground.

"what happened?"

"Ouch, Junior Brother Chen bumped into someone."

"We turned the corner and saw no one."

Lin Chen, Zhang Qian and Li Si who were walking in front turned their heads and said a few words at the same time.

Chen Yun felt quite puzzled. The senior brothers in front were walking well. If they saw someone around the corner, they would definitely remind them. Why did he hit someone when it was his turn?

He didn't have time to think too much. After all, he had to drive away ghosts and make money.

Chen Yun stepped forward to help the woman out of habit, "Little... girl, are you okay?"

The woman's expression changed and she shook off his palm, "Sir, please respect yourself!"

Only then did Chen Yun wake up.

This is an ancient society, and the relationship between men and women is relatively less open.

If he stepped forward to hold someone's arm, he might be regarded as a slut.

He quickly took a step back and said apologetically: "Girl, I'm really sorry to bump into you."

Although the girl in the green skirt is very beautiful, she has a bad temper.

She got up from the ground neatly, glanced at Chen Yun viciously, and spat: "You lustful person, I think you did it on purpose, huh!"

After saying that, she walked towards the corner and left without giving Chen Yun a chance to talk.

Chen Yun looked innocent when he was scolded.

He really didn't mean to bump into that girl.

He also had good intentions and wanted to help people up.

As a result, he got scolded.

Forget it, it's the way I handle things that's wrong.

He shook his head helplessly.

But the eyes of Lin Chen, Zhang Qian and Li Si became dirty.Especially Zhang Qian, who smiled playfully and patted Chen Yun on the shoulder, "You kid, don't you see that you are quite lustful?"

Lin Chen chuckled and said, "Isn't it true? It's cowardly to grab a girl's arm when you step forward."

Although Li Si didn't speak, his eyes flickered as he looked at her, as if he was saying that Chen Yun, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, was also a lustful person.

Chen Yun almost wanted to roll his eyes.

However, he knew that secular concepts were different and it would be useless to explain himself, so he simply didn't say much to them.

The three people teased Chen Yun a few words and continued on their way again.

Chen Yun was about to follow him.

Suddenly, he saw a pink purse embroidered with lotus flowers where the girl in the green skirt had fallen.

This purse is bulging, and you can tell at a glance that there are a lot of things stuffed in it.

Chen Yun couldn't help but be startled.

The girl in the green skirt didn't realize that it was nothing if she lost her purse.

Lin Chen, Zhang Qian and Li Si didn't see it either?

He felt a little strange, but he still stepped forward to pick up his purse.

There is a light and heavy feeling when you start it.

Chen Yun stretched out his hand and squeezed it, feeling a hard metallic feeling coming from inside.

Not surprisingly, this purse may contain gold and silver.

And judging from the weight, it weighs at least one or two taels.

Even one or two taels of silver is a large sum of money in this world similar to ancient China.

You must know that ordinary people can earn dozens of copper coins every day by working.

Two taels of silver may be a strong man's wages for one or two months!
A girl carrying so much money with her?
Chen Yun immediately realized that the other party might be in urgent need of money, or she might be a girl from a wealthy family.

He quickly turned around and ran to the corner, wanting to see if the girl in the green skirt had gone far, and then return the purse.

What's a pity is that I didn't see a single person around the corner.

Got it!
There is no way to pay them back for the time being.

Chen Yun thought for a while and decided to put it away first and return it when he had the chance to meet again.

As a result, he didn't have time to put it away.

Lin Chen, Zhang Qian and Li Si might have turned around and walked back when they saw Chen Yun not following.

"Hey, where did you get the wallet?" Lin Chen asked curiously.

Zhang Qian and Li Si also cast curious glances.

Chen Yun explained it to avoid them thinking that he had stolen it.

Unexpectedly, Lin Chen didn't care whether he picked it up or not, and encouraged: "Open it and take a look. If there is anything valuable, let's share it."

Chen Yun frowned slightly and said, "Not so good."

Lin Chen said hesitantly: "She doesn't know us, so what if we break up? Besides, the rule since ancient times is that there are things found on the road, and anyone who sees them can break them up. Junior Brother Chen, you don't want to keep it for yourself, do you?"

Zhang Qian and Li Si remained silent.

Chen Yun saw the struggle in the eyes of the two people. It seemed that he wanted to agree with Lin Chen's proposal, but felt that it was against his conscience, so he struggled.

As the saying goes, a person cannot be rich without windfall. If Chen Yun happened to pick up someone else's wallet at other times, he might actually pocket it.

But he always felt something was wrong, so he wasn't ready to put it away.

It was just that a few people in front of him were staring at him, and Lin Chen was speaking according to the rules. It seemed that there would be conflicts if he didn't differentiate.

Chen Yun was caught in a dilemma.

Zhang Qian said bluntly, "Open it and take a look. Maybe there is some token inside that can help us know where the owner lives. If we really can't find the owner, it won't be too late for us to divide it up."

Lin Chen followed closely and said, "We'll split it up first. If the girl comes to our door, I'll return the money later. But if she doesn't come to our door, we'll treat it as a windfall for us."

When Chen Yun thought it made sense, it seemed that he could only do this, "Okay, I'll open it and take a look."

The three gathered around.

Chen Yun untied the purse string and saw four gold beads inside.

Every gold bead is brand new, with no traces of holes or holes.

Lin Chen looked at it and said cheerfully: "Hey, there are exactly four gold beads. It seems that each one weighs about five yuan, so we can divide them one by one."

One tael of gold is equal to ten taels of silver.

One penny of gold is equal to one tenth of a tael of gold.

Therefore, five coins of gold is equal to half a tael of gold, that is, five taels of silver.

As the saying goes, those who see things are rewarded, and Chen Yun knew that if he didn't follow the rules, he would be hated by others.

He had no choice but to let Lin Chen, Zhang Qian and Li Si each take a golden bead.

In the end, he kept the purse and the remaining gold bead, thinking that just like Lin Chen said, if the girl comes to him, he will return it, and if he doesn't, he will make a fortune.

This is not because Chen Yun has a noble character.

But he vaguely felt that this purse was strange.

The gold beads inside are not only brand new but also of the same weight, which is contrary to common sense.

Instinct told him not to possess it.

……

the other side.

The woman in green robe is suspended in the clouds watching the four people share the money.

Yes, she is He Qionghe Xiangu who came to test Chen Yun's character on behalf of Zhong Liquan.

When she saw Chen Yun giving the gold beads to the other three people, He Xiangu's eyes showed doubts.

If Chen Yun is said to be greedy for money, then he should secretly hide the purse in his arms as soon as he receives it.

But Chen Yun not only did not hide it, but also obviously tried to find the owner.

To say that Chen Yun was not greedy for money, he later divided the gold beads with three other people.

This made He Xiangu a little confused about Chen Yun's character.

"It didn't work out this time. I'll find another chance to try him."

She had even thought of the next way to test Chen Yun.

The first step is to come to the door and ask for the wallet. If Chen Yun refuses to return it, then the temptation will end.

If Chen Yun is willing to return it, He Xiangu will deepen the contact by thanking Chen Yun for returning the wallet after confirming that the other party is not a money-grubber. Then she will start to flirt with Chen Yun to see if the other party is a lustful person, and then decide on the third step of testing.
