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

Chapter 61 Encountering an old friend
On May [-]th, midsummer has arrived.

In the evening, Chen Yun told his mentor where he was going, and then went to Xigou City with more than a dozen Changgong juniors to practice for Zhang Qian's descent from the mountain tomorrow.

"Senior Brother Zhang, where are you going down the mountain this time?"

"Junior Brother Li, maybe I will go to Luoyang to join Junior Brother Lin."

"Hey, did you get a letter from Senior Brother Lin? Why didn't I know? It's a shame that I was on good terms with him in the past."

"Haha, Junior Brother Ding, don't blame Junior Brother Lin. Luoyang is thousands of miles away, and it's not easy to catch a swan goose. Before he came down the mountain, he told me that he asked me to go to Luoyang first and stay there. He would also come down the mountain to stay with me later. To make a living, now he is going down the mountain first and will naturally be in Luoyang as agreed. Of course, it doesn't matter if he is not here. I have a relative in Luoyang who can stay temporarily for a while."

"I made the mistake of blaming Senior Brother Lin."

A group of people walked and chatted.

Chen Yun mingled among the crowd and remained silent.

Originally, he heard that Lin Chen was in Luoyang and wanted Zhang Qian to bring Zhong Kui Fu with him.

But Zhang Qian's tone was uncertain. Chen Yun thought about it and felt that it would be better to wait for Wang Laozhi and Wang Zaixi to come back and go to Luoyang to find Lin Chen while he went down the mountain to accumulate good deeds.

After all, the Zhongkui Talisman is particularly precious.

It is said that Cai Rujin was so skilled that he could only make one piece in a day.

He must ensure that such a precious thing is returned to Lin Chen in order to feel completely at ease.

After arriving at the mountain gate, Chen Yun took out more than a dozen of the armor-horse talismans that Cai Rujin asked for and distributed them one by one. "Brothers, we are going to Xigou City for thirty or fifty miles. We don't know when we will arrive on foot. For now, you can each get the armor-horse charms." Fu, let’s rush to the city as soon as possible.”

A group of people came up to receive the armor and horse talisman.

Li Si was surprised and said: "Senior Brother Chen, you have practiced Taoism with the ancestor for several months, and now you can make armor and horse talismans? You are really amazing."

Wang Siyan, Yu Luping, Senior Brother Tang and others all looked at Chen Yun with admiration and envy.

Missionary Temple recruits a large number of long-term workers.

Nowadays, Chen Yun is the only one who can truly worship the Patriarch.

This is the reason why everyone is envious.

As for worship, it is because everyone has been preaching and watching for many years, and more or less know that making talismans requires mana, which means refining the energy to refine the energy.

For mortals, refining true Qi is a real "immortal".

Naturally, everyone admired him endlessly.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Chen Yun said in a humble and low-key manner as always: "I have just entered the teacher's door for a few months, how can I make an armor and horse talisman? This is a gift from Master Nephew Cai."

Li Si was quite disappointed and said: "I originally thought that my senior brother would be able to refine his magic power immediately after becoming a disciple of the ancestor. I never thought that he would not be able to do it yet. It seems that the way of cultivation is really difficult."

Senior Brother Ning laughed loudly and said: "If cultivation is so easy, why would the immortals be dissatisfied with the world? Although Senior Brother Chen has not yet developed his magic power, he will become an immortal sooner or later if he enters the Patriarch's door."

Zhang Qian also glanced at Li Si, who had a "low EQ", and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Chen is a dragon and a phoenix among people, and he has the guidance of a famous teacher. It is only a matter of time that you can refine your magic power. You should please quickly curry favor with Senior Brother Chen now, otherwise in the future It’s not easy to curry favor.”

The latter part of his sentence was obviously joking.

As expected, everyone was happy.

"Haha, Senior Brother Chen, don't forget me, Junior Brother Tang, when you become an immortal in the future."

"And I, Old Ding, we are eating at the same table."

Although the group of people were laughing and joking, their eyes still showed seriousness.

Obviously, they agree with Zhang Qian and think that Chen Yun will develop magic power and become an "immortal family" in the future, so they want to curry favor with him now.

Chen Yun did not put on the air of being a direct descendant, but also joked with everyone.

He has refined the True Qi, but he is still at the ninth level and is indeed unable to make armor and horse talismans.

The main thing is that he is too rushed. Even if Chen Yun has the help of Bai Yuzhu, he is still far behind the eighth level.

Therefore, in the end, there was really no other way, so Chen Yun asked Cai Rujin to help make the Talisman of Rejuvenation for All Diseases.

The group of people said that they put on the armor and horse talismans and headed towards Xigou City.

……

Went to the famous restaurant "Full House" in Xigou City.

The waiter stepped forward and said, "Masters, please come upstairs."

Zhang Qian, Li Si and others gathered around Chen Yun and followed Xiao Er.

Suddenly, Chen Yun saw an acquaintance eating at the table at the door.

He couldn't help but be startled, and said to Zhang Qian: "Senior Brother Zhang, I met an acquaintance. You can take all the brothers upstairs first. I will be there in a moment."

Zhang Gan said: "Okay, come up quickly."

After saying this, Zhang Qian, Li Si, Wang Siyan and others all went upstairs.

Chen Yun calmly walked to the table near the door, bowed to the middle-aged and elderly man with a slightly pale face, and said, "Third Master, you are well."

That's right, the person sitting at this table is none other than the human trafficker Third Master who once brought Chen Yun from Daheishan to Xigou City.

Next to her sat an elderly woman and two middle-aged men.

Hearing the sound, everyone looked towards him.

When they saw it was a Taoist priest, everyone stood up quickly.

"I have seen the Taoist priest."

"Happy Taoist Master."

The Third Master also said hello first, and then showed confusion, "Taoist Priest, do you know me?"

About half a year after entering the Taoist Temple, Chen Yun not only grew a lot in height, from 1.5 meters to 1.7 meters and a half, but his body, which was not very thin, also became stronger, not to mention his complexion also changed greatly. Can the third master recognize it? It's normal to come out.

He took the initiative to identify himself and said: "I am Chen Yun from Daheishan."

"You are Chen Yun... Taoist Chen." The third master looked at him in disbelief, "Oh, you have changed so much in the past six months that I can no longer recognize you."

"Maybe the food in the Taoist temple is better and the body grows faster." Chen Yun explained casually, and then asked with great concern: "I wonder if the third master has ever been to Heishi Village in Daheishan again? Are my parents okay? ?”

The third master sighed and said, "Since Brother Chen sold you... for 20 taels of silver, he bought an acre of fertile land. Although he still lived in poverty, the family could not starve to death." In current society, an acre of fertile land sells for about Twenty taels of silver is only enough to buy one acre of land.

In ancient society, land annexation was serious. Chen Yun remembered that his family only had one acre of land. In ancient times, there were no chemical fertilizers, so the yield was relatively low. One acre of land could produce more than 300 kilograms of millet a year. It looked okay, but in fact, there was only enough left after removing the bran. More than 200 kilograms of grain is considered good.

Because of this, Chen Yun's family has been in "famine" since the birth of his younger siblings.

During festivals and festivals, when offering sacrifices to ancestors, I rely on my grandfather’s family to send some meat for support.

After the ancestors were sacrificed, the meat was naturally left for the family to eat, so Chen Yun was able to hide some dried meat and the like in those years.

Now that there is one less person in the family and one more acre of fertile land, it is indeed barely enough to support the family.

Just hearing that his family was still poor made Chen Yun feel sour.

Even if his father sold him, how could he remain indifferent to the relationship for 16 years?

After thinking about this, Chen Yun took a deep breath, made a decision, and said: "Third Master, I will go to you in a few days and bring some silver to my father. Don't tell me that I gave it to you."

The third master was stunned for a moment, "Daozhang Chen, your father has sold you. To put it bluntly, selling people is like selling goods. The goods sold have nothing to do with the original owner. I have never heard of such a thing." Whoever was sold gave money back to his family.”

The words are crude but not crude, but it has been 16 years since I came to this world. At least no matter how miserable and poor my father is, he has not exchanged his children for food like others.

This is equivalent to the kindness of not killing, and Chen Yun naturally remembers it in his heart.

He smiled and said, "I have food and drink at the missionary temple, and I have nowhere to spend my money. I might as well let them improve their lives."

The third master sighed: "You are really affectionate and righteous. If I were Brother Chen, I would definitely regret it to death."

Chen Yundao said: "That's why I asked you not to say that I gave you the silver coins. When you fancy something, just say it is a valuable antique and give them the silver coins."

The third master nodded and said: "Good."

After talking about the matter, Chen Yun was about to leave when he suddenly felt that something was wrong with the third master's expression.

When he was learning the qi-watching technique a few days ago, he read a lot about facial expressions, so even when the qi-watching technique was not turned on, he could more or less see some abnormalities.

Chen Yun asked with concern, "By the way, Third Master, you look pale, are you sick?"

The third master smiled bitterly and said: "It would be fine if he was sick. Alas, our family is unfortunate, so we might as well not mention it."

The elderly woman and the two middle-aged men next to her looked concerned, as if they were particularly afraid of this.

Chen Yun didn't like to meddle in other people's business, so since he didn't want to talk, he didn't ask any more questions.

……

Go upstairs.

Practice for Zhang Qian with everyone.

During this period, except for the two girls Wang Siyan and Yu Luping, everyone else drank a lot.

After three drinks, everyone gave them parting gifts.

Chen Yun also presented the meditation talisman, the peace and disaster warding talisman, the house-protecting talisman and the rejuvenation talisman that had been prepared long ago.

As for the divine talisman, he didn't ask Cai Rujin for it.

It's not that I don't want to ask for it for Zhang Qian.

But when the long-term workers of the Taoist Temple are dismissed normally, the elders will ask where the people who are coming down the mountain are going, and then take the initiative to give them the Jiama Talisman or the Divine Walking Talisman.

Even if the journey is particularly long, Wang Zaixi or Cai Rujin will be sent off in the mist.

When Lin Chen was driven down the mountain, even if Cai Rujin didn't go to see him off, Wang Zaixi would still give him the Armored Horse Talisman, the Divine Walking Talisman or send him off in person.

Zhang Qian took the talisman and looked at it, and he was immediately surprised and said: "Senior Brother Chen, you actually gave me such a precious talisman?"

Senior Brother Tang said with envy: "Yes, the Peace and Disaster Elimination Talisman is a precious talisman to protect one's life and protect the health of the family and home. If it is carried with you, it can guarantee safe entry and exit. It will protect against harm caused by villains, evil spirits, and emergencies. Can protect.”

Li Si followed up and said: "There are also evil-proofing talismans to control the four corners of the house, which can eliminate clouds and hundreds of ghosts, and eliminate all evil."

Senior Brother Ning's eyes were also red with jealousy, "It's okay to have a peace and misfortune amulet and a house-warming and evil amulet. Wearing this disease-rejuvenating amulet with you can not only prevent and cure diseases, but also if someone really gets a serious disease, you can put the amulet into it." Taking it with burning embers water can also quickly cure your body's diseases!"

"Senior Brother Chen is such a generous hand."

"For asking Senior Brother Cai to make these talismans, I think Senior Brother Chen owes me a lot of favors."

Senior Brother Ding, Yu Luping and others were all talking.

Everyone was not very interested in the Jingxin Talisman, and almost never talked about it.

It is true that Chen Yun knew that the house-warming charms to ward off evil spirits, the peace and disaster-repelling charms, and the all-illness rejuvenation charms were more practical than the meditation charms, and everyone talked about them more normally.

As for the belief that these talismans were made by Cai Rujin, Chen Yun did not deliberately explain it. He did not like to show off himself.

……

After dinner, everyone walked around Xigou City for a while.

Finally, everyone returns to Zhongnan Mountain.

When they arrived at the mountain gate, they happened to meet Wang Laozhi and Wang Zaixi coming back from outside after accumulating good deeds.

"Senior Brother Wang."

"Senior Brother Wang."

The crowd greeted each other.

Chen Yun also stepped forward to say hello: "Senior Brother Wang, Senior Nephew Wang."

Wang Laozhi only glanced at Chen Yun, and then said in surprise: "Hey, Junior Brother Chen hasn't been seen for a month or two, and you actually refined the true energy?"

Chen Yun said without saying a word or being humble, "Under the guidance of my mentor, I was lucky enough to refine True Qi."

Wang Laozhi and Wang Zaixi were only slightly surprised by Chen Yun's fast cultivation speed, but they were not as shocked as Uncle Zheng Wen and Cai Rujin.

Because they saw that Chen Yun had refined his true energy so quickly and reached the level of a ninth-grade mage, they thought that what Zhong Liquan taught Chen Yun was inner alchemy, and did not think of it as a method of transmission.

On the contrary, Zhang Qian, Li Si, Wang Siyan and others who heard their conversation were shocked. No one expected that Chen Yun would actually refine the true energy and become a real "immortal family"!
　Thanks for the reward.
