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

Chapter 77 Chen Tuan (three-in-one)

house.

Chen Yun saw his body.

To be precise, he was floating above his head at the moment, with his body below.

At this time, the physical body's eyes were tightly closed and its breathing was weak, as if it was on the verge of death.

Succeeded?
The Yin Shen really succeeded!

Chen Yun felt a surge of joy in his heart.

In fact, according to the records of the practice, it is not too difficult to emerge from the Yin Shen.

Some people who are weak or frightened may leave their bodies in their sleep.

The most difficult thing about practicing Yin Shen is "cultivating the spirit".

Only by nurturing and strengthening the Yin Shen can it exert its powerful power.

Chen Yun was very curious when he came out of the underworld for the first time.

Look around, the scenery is the same as usual.

He tried to communicate with Zhang Qian, but couldn't make a sound.

After looking carefully for a moment, I found that even if the oil lamp was lit at this time, there was no shadow of my ghost, as if it was not real.

Intangible and qualityless, just like records.

Chen Yun was a little hesitant, wondering if he was dreaming?
Because when people are dreaming, they sometimes have the feeling of "soul leaving the body" and seeing the surrounding environment as very real.

However, people cannot control themselves freely while sleeping.

But now Chen Yun realizes that the Yin God is as "real" as the physical body, and he can completely control it.

This feeling is very mysterious.

At this moment, a huge thought came.

A young man snorted coldly, "Who dares to cause trouble in the city?"

As soon as he finished speaking, an extremely hot breath hit his face from nowhere.

This hot wind, like the hot wind next to the stove, rushed straight towards Chen Yun.

He had the feeling of being thrown into a furnace and burning.

It's so hot that you may lose your soul at any time!
It felt like being locked by some scourge.

But unfortunately, there is nothing I can do.

Helpless, powerless.

It felt very uncomfortable and scary.

At this time, Chen Yun had only one thought, eager to return to his physical body.

He really didn't know where a hot breath came from and locked onto him.

However, I couldn't move at all, as if I was suppressed by something, and I couldn't break free even with all my strength!
His mind gradually became blurred.

Why did this happen to me when I was riding a horse?
Even though Chen Yun was of high quality, he even wanted to scold his mother at this time.

Just when he was in danger.

Suddenly, the young man's confused voice came from the hot breath, "Hey, it's not a ghost, but a mage coming out of the underworld? Sorry, sorry."

After he finished speaking, the hot breath receded like a tide.

Even so, Chen Yunshen still looked like a worker who had been working next to a boiler all day in the summer, feeling "dehydrated" and "exhausted".

He was even so "exhausted" that he had no "strength" to return to his physical body.

Just when he was anxious, a magical scene happened spontaneously.

The surrounding sandalwood smoke enveloped his Yinshen like a hot spring.

Chen Yun felt that the Yinshen was being repaired by cigarettes.

In just a short while, his spirit returned to its original state.

Not only that, when his Yin Shen was wrapped in the cigarette, he could clearly feel that the Yin Shen was "devouring" some mysterious energy in the sandalwood smoke.

The Yinshen is growing stronger bit by bit.

"Oh, no wonder the gods want incense. It turns out that it can not only heal the Yin God's injuries, but also increase its own strength."

Chen Yun vaguely understood something.

Normally, you only need to follow the "Transforming Yin and Returning Yang" method to nourish your mind. Generally, you need the spirit of yin to be in your body.

It's just that this method of cultivating Yinshen is relatively slow.

Of course, there is another way to strengthen the Yin God, which is to use specially made sandalwood to burn and absorb the energy of the sandalwood smoke.

In addition, according to the method, if you have enough faith, you can also cultivate the Yin God, which is roughly equivalent to the method of becoming a god by burning incense.

Chen Yun is currently in the second situation.

He continued to absorb the energy in the smoke that lit the sandalwood.

Time passed by minute by minute.

His Yinshen is also getting stronger little by little.

After about half an hour.

The sandalwood is about to burn out.

Chen Yun then returned to his physical body.

Suddenly, a "heavy" feeling came over me, as if I was being shackled.

Chen Yun slowly opened his eyes and felt a strange feeling, as if he was more "sensitive".

Correct!
That's what it feels like!

He seemed to be able to feel the fluctuations of air flow, not through touch, vision, hearing, etc., but more like spiritual perception.

This is a magic that Chen Yun has never experienced before.

At this moment, Zhang Qian's voice suddenly came to my ears, "Senior Brother Chen, haven't you made any progress?"

Chen Yun followed the news and saw a hint of discouragement on Zhang Qian's face. It was obvious that he was not practicing well and had an "inferiority" mood.

He still didn't understand the situation, so he asked: "How are you?"

Zhang Qian sighed and said, "I can't even do the 'Marrow Cleansing Technique', let alone the Yinshen."

Oh, it turns out that not everyone is like me and can immediately become a Yin Shen on the first try.

Looking back on his previous training, even though he had used some external objects, Chen Yun suddenly realized that his talent might be really high.

Seeing Zhang Qian so discouraged, Chen Yun told a white lie.

He half-truthfully said, "I'm in the same situation as you, but we're just a little bit different."

Hearing this, Zhang Qian suddenly became happy, "You can't do it too?"

Chen Yun chuckled and said, "I have some eyebrows, I have some eyebrows."

Zhang Qian immediately regained his confidence, "That's good. I thought my talent was too poor and I didn't make any progress. It turns out that Senior Brother Chen, you are just a little bit talented."

Chen Yuncheng said: "You are injured, please rest early. I will be ready to sleep after I have been busy for a while."

"Okay, then I'll go to bed first."

After saying this, Zhang Qian lay down and fell asleep.

Because the efficacy of the red fruit peel has been refined.

It is naturally impossible for Chen Yun to refine his qi tonight.

The reason why he didn't sleep immediately was because he had something to deal with.

Thinking about it, Chen Yun took out the Qi Gathering Bead from the storage ring.

The next moment, he snorted coldly and said softly to Bai Yuzhu: "Explain it to me!"

Qin Liang's panicked consciousness immediately came from the white jade bead, "Master, why did you say this?"

Just as he was about to speak, Zhang Gan raised his head and said, "Who are you talking to?"

"Follow that ghost, you go to bed first." Chen Yun replied, and continued to communicate with the ghost, saying in a bad tone: "I really didn't doubt you at first, but it suddenly occurred to me that you had introduced your identity before, and you were a mortal. Gambler, if that's the case, why do you know that I have magic power as soon as you see me? Then, wherever I go, that witch named Lin Feiyun always catches up to me immediately? Tell me! Are you betraying me? If you don’t tell me, I will kill you today!”

"Don't! Don't, don't, don't, don't!" Qin Liang was so frightened that he begged for mercy again and again, "I have something to hide from you, my lord, but Lin Feiyun really wasn't the one who tipped off the news. For example, a few nights ago, when we were in Cao Gong's temple, Lin Feiyun Fei Yun is such a powerful Yin spirit, and was almost beaten to death by Duke Cao. How dare I, a mere ghost, cast a spell to report the news? Without the protection of Qi Gathering Pearl, I would have been beaten to death by Duke Cao."

Chen Yun asked: "Then what are you hiding from me?"

Qin Liang let out a long sigh, "Well, I concealed what happened a few years ago. At that time, I had just regained my consciousness and was able to control myself. At that time, Lin Feiyun, a demon girl, came over, cast a spell on me, and taught me Some of my cultivation methods, that spell was specially used to control me. Now that she is dead, the spell should be broken, but what makes me feel strange is that the spell on me seems not to be broken. Well, these are all questions Foreign words. It’s just that the cultivation method is vicious and requires murdering others to devour their souls. Although I am a bad gambler, I really have never thought of harming others, so I have never attempted to murder the Huang family, otherwise they would have died long ago."

Is the spell not broken?
Is Lin Feiyun not dead?
Chen Yun felt that it shouldn't be the case. The other party had been blown up to pieces, so how could he continue to live?
He felt that maybe the spell was a bit special, and it would not be automatically lifted when Lin Feiyun died.

Therefore, Chen Yun did not think that Lin Feiyun was not dead, but was thinking about Qin Liang's words.

Judging from what the other party just said and the analysis of what happened, the credibility is very high.

However, Chen Yun was repeatedly sensed by Lin Feiyun and lost trust in Qin Liang.

He didn't want to cause any harm, so he decided to take some protective measures against Qin Liang.

He squinted his eyes and said, "I got a Yin Shen cultivation method from Lin Feiyun's storage ring. You must know it, right?"

Qin Liang was stunned and said: "I know, what do you want, my lord?"

"It's good to know." Chen Yun nodded slightly, "In this Yin God cultivation method, there are not only methods to strengthen the Yin God, but also some Yin God-like spells, about three or four different spells. In addition to creating illusions for people, , illusions, and attacking souls, there is also the ghost general refining spell. This spell can not only raise ghost soldiers and ghost generals to assist you in fighting, but it also has the biggest feature. Once the owner dies, the ghost soldiers and ghost generals under him will also will die. I don’t ask you to help me fight, but for safety reasons, I have only two choices. The first is to beat you to death, and the second is to make you into a ghost general. I hope you still have a trace of kindness, and I don’t want to do more. It is a sin to commit murder, so I choose the second option."

The magic of refining ghosts is somewhat similar to the magic of recruiting immortal soldiers and horses of the Lushan sect.

The soldiers and horses sent by Lushan can be divided into three types: heavenly soldiers and horses, earthly immortal soldiers and horses, and human immortal soldiers and horses.

Lushan can functionally control the troops and horses of the three realms, so it is called the "Three Realms and Five Battalions of Soldiers and Horses".

There is an inherited Lushan Dharma Altar, and there are also several other battalions of soldiers and horses.

When Master Lushan performs rituals and performs rituals, he will dispatch different soldiers and horses depending on different matters to assist the master in performing rituals to ensure the completeness of the rituals and subsequent protection.

Tianxian soldiers and horses, as the name suggests, are soldiers and horses allocated by Tiancao Siyuan, which can be obtained through Lushan's performance.

Earthly Immortal Soldiers and Horses are also called Spirit Realm Soldiers and Yin Realm Soldiers and Horses.

Yin soldiers are easy to summon and damaged, and can easily serve as cannon fodder. As long as a practitioner with some ability can do some rituals at night, they can be summoned. However, there is a problem with summoning Yin soldiers. It is better to summon imps, but in case the ghost king is summoned. , and if you don't practice enough and can't control it, you will have problems in various aspects such as body, complexion, health, fortune, etc. If you don't make appropriate offerings, the problem will be more serious.

Immortal soldiers and horses are the soldiers and horses handed down from the system on the altar, the soldiers and horses given by the master.

There is also a type of rampant soldiers that can also be regarded as soldiers and horses in the spiritual world.

There are at least 33 categories of known rampant soldiers.

Including elves who were born due to the aura of mountains and rivers gathering somewhere, and elves who did not follow the right path to achieve righteousness, etc.

The "Ghost Refining General" spell that Chen Yun learned from Lin Fei Yun Qingyu is one of the techniques to control ghosts.

If you want the ghost to become more powerful, you have to offer incense on weekdays.

Over time, the ghost will become more and more powerful.

So much so that if you make offerings for a long time, you can even become a ghost fairy.

He did not intend to make Qin Liang a ghost immortal, nor did he want the other party to help him fight, so he only used the talisman to establish a certain connection with the other party and would not deliberately support him.

Qin Liang had no objection, "As long as my lord is at ease."

"That's great. You and I are dependent on each other for life and death. I'm sure we won't do anything to spread the word. As for me, I don't need to commit murder."

With that said, Chen Yun took out the yellow paper and ink from the bag, and began to draw the "army guarding talisman" according to the first step recorded in Liangui General's spell.

Because it was his first time to draw, he scrapped several pieces of yellow paper at the beginning, and it took him many attempts before he was lucky enough to draw one successfully.

The painting of the "Arresting Talisman" is completed.

Chen Yun poured the true Qi into it, and then said to the Qi Gathering Pearl: "Quickly get into the talisman."

Qin Liang let out a long sigh and turned into wisps of black energy that spread from the Qi Gathering Pearl to the Soldier Guard Talisman.

After a while, Chen Yun bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood into it.

Immediately, Qin Liang screamed in his ears.

Chen Yun knew that he was using the military escort talisman to establish contact with the ghost, and was not planning to murder the other party.

Sure enough, after Qin Liang's screams disappeared, Chen Yun felt that he had established a special connection with him. He felt that he could control Qin Liang like his body and his arms.

After doing all this, Chen Yun said calmly: "Go back to Ju Qizhu."

"Yes, lord." Qin Liang turned into wisps of black energy and got back into the Gathering Qi Pearl.

The next second, the soldier's talisman caught fire and burned himself.

Chen Yun knew that this evil talisman only bound him to the ghost general and had no other effect. It would burn and destroy itself after use.

After establishing contact, if he dies, Qin Liang will also be in a state of despair.

After doing this, Chen Yun didn't care what Qin Liang was doing. He drew another flame talisman and injected it with true energy. Then he made a pavement on the ground.

Because the flame talisman consumes a huge amount of true energy, if Chen Yun does not take the initiative to restore his true energy, he can only make one in a day. He has not made one today, so he naturally has to make one in case he encounters any danger.

Counting the previous Flame Talisman, he now has two.

Chen Yun lay down on the bed, put away his distracting thoughts and went to sleep.

……

The next day, it was just dawn.

Boom, boom, boom.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Chen Yun and Zhang Qian were woken up.

Zhang Qian shouted out with a slight displeasure: "Who is it? It's so early in the morning that it's disturbing people's dreams."

A young man's voice came from outside, "I almost hurt my husband yesterday, and Chen Tuan came to apologize."

Hearing this, Chen Yun couldn't help but be startled.

Chen Tuan?

The person outside the door turned out to be Chen Tuan?
He never thought that when his Yin Shen came out of his body last night, the person who almost killed him was Chen Tuan.

If on a normal day, Chen Yun had learned that the famous Chen Tuan was waiting outside the door, he would have been overjoyed to open the door, take a look at what the other person looked like, and discuss ways to seek advice.

However, last night, I had a ghost, and I was almost killed by Chen Tuan.

Now that he heard that the other party came to his door, Chen Yun felt extremely angry.

He stood up suddenly, walked straight to the door, opened it, and opened his mouth to ask the other person, "What did you mean last night..."

Before he finished speaking, the young man dressed as a Confucian scholar outside the door bowed and apologized: "I almost hurt you last night. Chen Tuan is deeply sorry. I hope you can forgive me."

As the saying goes, reach out and don't hit a smiling person.

The other party thought there was a ghost at work, and Chen Yun couldn't express his anger, so he had no choice but to say: "Forget it, you didn't do it unintentionally."

"Thank you sir for your magnanimity."

After saying this, Chen Tuan straightened his back.

Only then did Chen Yun see the other party's appearance clearly.

This is a young Confucian scholar of twelve or thirteen years old, wearing white clothes and a turban.

It doesn't match up with the "Master Chen Tuan" I imagined.

He asked in confusion: "Are you really called Chen Tuan?"

Chen Tuan was startled and said with a smile: "To tell you what sir, it is Chen Tuan who was born late."

Chen Yun blinked and asked, "Where are you from?"

Chen Tuan was quite honest, "I am from Zhenyuan County, Bozhou."

Huh?
That’s right too.

Is the other party really that Chen Tuan?

Chen Yun was curious and continued to ask: "The true source of Bozhou is thirty to forty thousand miles away from here. How did you get here?"

Chen Tuan knew everything and said without hesitation: "Due to the Huangchao Rebellion, my family fled my hometown. When I was young, I met an expert who taught me Taoism. I knew some techniques of making talismans, so I made some fast talismans. Every day I I was able to travel five hundred miles, and after more than three months of fleeing, I finally came to the territory of Qin to take refuge. As the former suzerain country, it generally will not be affected by war."

Chen Yun has been in Qin for a long time and has no idea about the outside world.

Now that he heard about the chaos in Huangchao, he knew what era he was currently in.

Not surprisingly, it should be during the reign of Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty.

So, from this point of view, the Tang Dynasty was about to fall into the separatist regime of Jiedushi, and then move toward destruction step by step.

It is difficult to speculate how many years Tang Xizong was in office.

Chen Yun asked with concern: "How many years has it been since the Huangchao Rebellion broke out?"

Chen Tuan said: "Four or five years."

Chen Yun probably knows the time, it should be three or four years after Emperor Xizong of Tang Dynasty neutralized the war.

While he was thinking about it, Chen Tuan asked politely: "Sir, do you still have any questions? If not, Wan Sheng will be on his way with his family and continue to Xigou City."

"Nothing..." Chen Yun said and thought of something, "By the way, is Emperor Tang in Chang'an now?"

Chen Tuan was startled again, "What did the emperor do in Chang'an? It is said that after the emperor's defeat, he retreated from Luoyang to Xishu. People who fled along the way said that the emperor had just recaptured Luoyang recently, and Huang Chao fled and led his troops to Caizhou. , but General Qin Zongquan was defeated and surrendered."

This time Chen Yun completely determined the time, and Tang Xizong was neutralized for three years.

The only thing that puzzled him was that according to historical records, the capital of the Tang Dynasty was in Chang'an, and it was later moved to Luoyang when it was about to be destroyed.

Why is it Luoyang now?
Maybe the world is slightly different.

Chen Yun didn't think much about it. He bowed and saluted and said, "Thank you for informing me."

"Since there is nothing to do, I will leave late."

Chen Tuan said he was about to leave.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Qian suddenly asked: "Little friend Chen, did you just say that you almost killed my senior brother Chen last night?" Chen Tuan said humbly: "Mr. Chen came out with a ghost. I thought it was a ghost. At that time, I thought about annihilating him, and then I sensed that someone was possessed by evil spirits, I was ashamed, I was not good at learning, and I mistakenly thought Mr. Chen was a evil spirit."

After finishing speaking, Chen Tuan said goodbye and left.

Chen Yun gently closed the door.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Zhang Qian staring at him with a resentful look on his face.

Of course he knew why. It was just to comfort the other party last night by saying that he had made some progress in becoming a Yin Shen, making Zhang Qian think that everyone had similar talents.

As expected, Zhang Qian said speechlessly: "Senior Brother Chen, the little progress you have made is really... it is really beyond comparison."

……

On the other side, within Xigou City.

In a secluded villa in the suburbs.

A young man in white clothes and trousers looked at Lin Fei Yun Yinshen and was shocked and said: "Junior brother, where is your body?"

The person who spoke was none other than Liu Guibai, the owner of Baiyun Villa.

Like Lin Feiyun, he is also a Taiping Dao monster.

It's just that his cultivation level is weaker than Lin Feiyun's, so Xigou City Qushuai didn't have his turn.

Of course, Liu Guibai's cultivation level is not too weak, and he can probably break through the seventh-level mage.

"Senior brother, I was plotted against by Chen Yun, a disciple of Zhengyang Zhenren, a disciple of Taoist Guan Zhengyang in Ningyang Cave. My body was blown up to pieces, and only Yin Shen escaped by chance." Concubine Lin, Yun Yin Shen was trembling, and seemed to be extremely angry about this. "That little thief is really hateful..."

She told her exactly what happened.

After Liu Guibai heard this, his whole face showed a look of disbelief.

It was not that he felt that Lin Feiyun was deceived and was "not intelligent enough", but that Chen Yun was too bad and took advantage of Lin Feiyun's greed to dig a hole step by step for Lin Feiyun to detonate the explosive barrel and destroy her body.

"Didn't the leader ask us not to provoke the many sacred disciples of Zhongnan Mountain? Last time General Renggong came here, he encountered the Buddhist Jialan Bodhisattva Guan Yunchang, who was just a little Yin God incarnation. He lost his mount and managed to save his life. Zhengyang Zhenren's cultivation is far away. Above Guan Yunchang, why do you want to provoke his disciples?" Liu Guibai frowned and said: "If the leader knows about this, I'm afraid you and I will both be punished. Junior brother, please don't provoke him again."

"If I don't kill this little thief, I swear I won't be a human being!" Lin Feiyun gritted her teeth and said, "Senior brother, if you really love and cherish your junior sister, please help me do two things."

Liu Guibai had admired Lin Feiyun for a long time. When he heard his sweetheart's words, he immediately asked: "What do you want me to do?"

Lin Feiyun looked a little ferocious and said: "First, find me a more beautiful female body and let me seize the body to heal. Second, while I am healing, if you have the ability to capture that little thief Chen Yun, , after I finish healing my injury... I will become a Taoist partner with you!"

It can be seen that she actually doesn't like Liu Guibai very much, but now she really has no choice but to use the temptation of becoming a Taoist couple to let Liu Guibai do things for her.

As expected, Liu Guibai's face lit up with joy when he heard this, "Seriously? As long as I capture that little thief, my junior brother will become a Taoist couple with me?"

Lin Feiyun nodded and said: "Yes, don't kill him, capture him alive, I will torture him for 100 years in retaliation for the destruction of his body!"

Liu Guibai, who was carried away by love, completely forgot about the leader's instructions. He vowed: "Don't worry, junior brother, I will definitely capture that little thief alive."

Lin Feiyun said: "First find a physical body for me. If my Yin Shen cannot return to the physical body at dawn, my soul will definitely be scattered."

"It's a trivial matter."

Liu Guibai said and shouted: "Here comes someone."

Two middle-aged men with their heads wrapped in yellow scarves immediately ran in from outside.

Liu Guibai said lightly: "I remember that there is a beautiful woman in a village not far from here. She seems to be called 'Zheng Chungu'. You must bring her back immediately. Remember, do not be noticed by others."

"Yes, Master."

"I'll go there soon."

The two quickly disappeared through the door.

Baiyun Villa is located in a sparsely populated area on the outskirts of Xigou City.

On the surface it looks like a luxury mansion.

In fact, it is the base of Xigou City, a remnant of Taiping Road.

Because it was inconvenient for Qu to be the master in front of others, Liu Guibai acted as the owner of the village.

He is quite prestigious in Xigou City and has made friends with many officials with gold, silver and jewelry, but secretly he is doing things that are harmful to nature, such as raising ghosts and monsters.

Not only that, Baiyun Villa also raised many dead soldiers, ready to rise up and seize the world when the leader gives the order.

After about half an hour.

Two dead soldiers brought back a beautiful young village girl.

Liu Guibai directly used secret techniques to extract the soul of the village girl from her body.

Immediately, Concubine Lin's Yunyin God pounced on the village girl's soul and swallowed it hard, leaving the village girl completely stunned.

After devouring the village girl's soul, Lin Feiyun finally entered the village girl's body.

The next moment, the village girl opened her eyes.

Lin Feiyun didn't seem to be used to this physical body. She struggled several times and couldn't get up. Finally, Liu Guibai carried her into the boudoir.

in the boudoir.

Liu Guibai lit three sticks of golden sandalwood, then looked at Lin Feiyun who was sitting cross-legged on the bed and said: "Junior brother, I will go to capture that little thief Chen Yun. You can repair the Yin Shen first, and wait until you are completely under control." I must have captured this body, and then we can get married."

Lin Feiyun showed a hypocritical smile, "Shan, everything depends on senior brother."

"Wait for my good news."

After Liu Guibai finished speaking, he left.

At this time, Lin Feiyun narrowed her eyes slightly, "Huh, you are the only one who still wants to become a Taoist couple with me? When you come back after catching that little thief, I will wait for a while until the Yin Shen has completely recovered and has taken control of this little thief. If you still dare to mention getting married after taking on a physical body, I will beat you to death!"

Yes, she was so ruthless. She didn't care that Liu Guibai was passionate about her. She even thought that after regaining her strength, if Liu Guibai used this as a threat, she would kill him completely.

……

Three days later, on the official road.

Although Zhang Gan's injury has not yet recovered, it does not affect his journey.

Chen Yun and Zhang Qian put on the armor and horse talismans and headed towards Luoyang.

During the past two days, because he was temporarily unable to refine his energy, he practiced Yin Shen every night.

Of course, making a flame talisman every day is Chen Yun's current homework. He has made three more in the past three days. Currently, there are five flame talismans in the storage ring.

As for the daytime, Chen Yun did not forget the purpose of his trip down the mountain. He often ran to the street to give some silver coins or rice and porridge to beggars who really needed help.

"The red fruit is indeed available. Where can Jiu Sui He Yu Lu and Zhu Yu Cao look for it?"

Racing along the official road, Chen Yun secretly thought.

Both are spiritual roots of heaven and earth.

For example, Jiu Sui He.

If a person obeys it, he will not die when he grows old.

To put it simply, you can achieve immortality.

In fact, this immortality has its limits.

According to Chen Yun's knowledge, Jiu Sui He can extend a person's life by [-] years.

Of course, Jiu Sui He only has this function.

It does not make people immortal, nor does it give people extraordinary powers.

Zhu Yucao is not as magical as Jiusuihe.

Its function is that if people eat it, they will not feel hungry for a long time.

If the spiritual roots of heaven and earth had levels, Jiu Sui He would be a first-class spiritual root, and Zhu Yucao would be a low-grade spiritual root if he was strangled to death, similar to Zhu Guo.

What Chen Yun wants is not Jiu Sui He. Although Jiu Sui He will be used in the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation Decoction, it is not used in the Qi Refining Transformation Decoction for the time being.

What he wants is Jiu Sui He Yu Dew.

What is Jiushuiheyulu?
It is said that after the spiritual roots of heaven and earth like Jiu Sui He are planted, there will often be rain and dew all around.

These rains and dews are rootless water.

Although ordinary rain is rootless water, it does not contain spiritual energy.

The rain and dew that often accompanies Jiusuihe during its growth period are different.

Before these rain and dew fall to the ground, they contain special spiritual energy, which can help the growth of Jiu Sui He.

Just imagine, how much spiritual energy does this rain and dew contain that can help a divine creature like Jiu Sui He grow?

""Da Luo Ling Tang" records that there is no fixed place for the growth of Jiu Sui He. Generally, it will be picked up by the sacred bird Danji and scattered on the earth at will, but there are traces of the remaining grass to follow."

There was a whistling wind in his ears, and Chen Yun recalled the place where Zhu Yucao grew, "This thing originally grew on a sacred mountain called Zhaoyao in the West Sea. Later, it was discovered by the alchemists and gradually brought back to the Central Plains. However, the growth environment of Zhu Yucao Harsh, it must be accompanied by a spiritual spring, that is to say, if I want to find Zhu Yucao, I have to search everywhere for where there is a spiritual spring, so that I have a slight chance of encountering Zhu Yucao."

This is undoubtedly a needle in a haystack.

But despite this, Chen Yun still did not give up looking for Zhu Yucao.

He asked when he was in Ma Chi City, but he really didn't ask anything at first. Later, a kind-hearted old woman told him that there was a spiritual spring in Wangshun Mountain Thunder God Cave, a thousand miles away from Ma Chi City, but he didn't know if there was Zhu Yu there. Grass grows.

Chen Yun was surprised at that time. Most people had never heard of Wang Shunshan. How did this old woman know that there was a spiritual spring in Wang Shunshan?
Although he couldn't figure it out, Chen Yun found out where there was a spiritual spring, so he decided to see if there was any Zhu Yucao when he passed by today.

Just as he was thinking about it, Zhang Qian, who was running wildly, suddenly slowed down.

Chen Yun didn't know what was happening, so he also slowed down and walked forward, "Senior Brother Zhang, what's wrong?"

Zhang Gan pointed forward, "There seems to be robbers ahead."

Are there robbers?
In Chen Yun's impression, the Qin State was originally the suzerain state. Since its defeat in the war of orthodoxy, it has lost its former glory. However, it is precisely because of this that there has been no war in the Qin State for hundreds of years, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. No one becomes a robber.

Even if there is, he is from a poor and hungry family and is really not a thin man like a human being.

However, when he looked forward, he saw four or five men with daggers, bows and arrows in front of them. All of them were full of muscles. Except for their poorly dressed clothes, judging from their appearance, they did not look like poor people at all.

Chen Yun's first reaction was that these people were not real robbers at all, they seemed to be squatting here.

On the way, I encountered groups of people armed with sharp weapons.

Chen Yun and Zhang Qian gradually became more vigilant, and their pace suddenly slowed down.

Even Chen Yun was still wondering whether he should ask a few words from a distance. If the situation was not right, he would have to use the flame talisman.

As for Yin Shen spells, if he had just emerged from Yin Shen, he would not be able to use them yet.

Naturally, Chen Yun did not deliberately study.

In addition, Chen Yun looked down upon those Yin and God-like spells, whether they were the "Soul-falling Technique" that attacked people's souls, or the other two "Dream-Entering Techniques" and "The Art of Illusion". For example, "Dream-Entering Technique" was used to To create illusions, the "art of illusion" is to create illusions. It's not that these three spells are not powerful, but that he feels that these heretical arts are insidious. As a disciple of Zhongli Quan and a direct disciple of a famous and upright sect, he uses these evil spells. , seems to have lost its reputation as a missionary temple.

Chen Yunzheng secretly mobilized his true energy, preparing to take out the flame talisman from the storage ring at any time to be on guard.

Unexpectedly, the people in front seemed to have discovered them.

I saw a burly man holding a steel fork shouting from a distance: "It is not suitable to travel at night. You two can go back and forth wherever you go. If you want to hurry, you can go there during the day tomorrow."

This tone doesn't sound like a robber who was intercepted halfway.

Then why are they guarding the roadside with sharp weapons?
Chen Yun and Zhang Qian looked at each other.

Zhang Qiandao: "Senior Brother Chen, they seem to be blocking the road and preventing people from leaving. Should we go forward?"

Chen Yun thought for a while and said: "We have walked along the way without seeing a place to stay. If we return now, we may have to sleep in the wild. Since there are people ahead, there must be villages inhabited. Let's go up and borrow a night from them."

Zhang Qian thought the same thing, "Good."

The two walked forward slowly.

When the six-foot-five-inch man who spoke earlier saw that they didn't listen to the advice, he suddenly said in a sharp tone: "You two don't listen to the advice..."

Suddenly, the strong man seemed to have discovered something. He looked to the side and whispered: "Huh? There seems to be a Taoist priest. Do you think he has immortal magic? Can he solve the trouble in my village?"

The hunky-backed man on the side took a closer look and said, "He looks too young to be an immortal with special skills."

"Yes, too young."

"It certainly doesn't look like he has any special skills."

A group of people whispered.

At this time, Chen Yun and Zhang Qian were already in front of everyone.

Chen Yunzuo bowed his head and saluted and said: "Fellow heroes, I am Chen Chongyong, a disciple of Zhengyang Zhenren, a disciple of Taoist Guan Zhengyang in Ningyang Cave, Zhongnan Mountain. May I ask why you are blocking the way and not letting me go forward?"

"Zhongnan Mountain?"

"Zhengyang Zhenren?"

"have you heard of it?"

"No, I haven't heard of it."

Several people were still whispering.

Although these people's voices were very low, Chen Yun still heard them keenly.

This place is two thousand miles away from Zhongnan Mountain, and the speed of information transmission in ancient times was very slow. It is normal for these people not to know the name of their mentor.

The strong man carrying the steel fork at the head bowed his hands and saluted: "I have met Daozhang Chen. I am Gao Liang, the hunter of Gaojiazhuang. The reason why I blocked your way is because there is a monster in Wangshun Mountain ahead. More than ten people in our village have died at the mouth of the wolf monster. , many pedestrians also suffered from this, so the old lady asked me to stand guard by the roadside every evening, and if we encounter pedestrians to give advice, we must not lose our lives because of encountering wolf monsters in the night. "

Chen Yun's heart tightened when he heard that there was a wolf demon in Wangshun Mountain.

Zhang Qian's expression couldn't help but change.

As preachers and watchers, how could they not know that monsters are scary?
It's just that Chen Yun and Zhang Qian encountered almost no human habitation along the way. If they turned back, they would either sleep in the wild or return to a village near Machi City. The former might be attacked by wild beasts at night, and the latter would affect their journey.

Chen Yun was deep in thought.

Zhang Gan asked curiously: "Wolf demon?"

Gao Liang is a talkative person, "Well, half a year ago, a wolf monster was born in this mountainous land. It was okay at first. The wolf monster only appeared near Wangshun Mountain. We will be honest when we learn that someone is hunting and being eaten." I really don’t go hunting in the mountains anymore. Who would have thought that three months ago, for some unknown reason, this wolf demon came to the village at night and started eating people. From the beginning, it came once every ten days and a half, and now it comes almost every night. , more than a dozen people have died in my Gaojiazhuang."

Chen Yun could tell that the wolf demon had frightened the people of Gaojiazhuang out of their courage. They even stood by the roadside in the evening to warn passers-by that they would gather in groups and hold sharp weapons.

That being said, that wolf demon might be very powerful.

At the same time, he learned an important piece of information from Gao Liang.

That is, wolf monsters usually only appear at night. If you are traveling during the day, there should be no danger.

Thinking of this, he decided to quit and wanted to stay away from here for a night and wait for the journey tomorrow.

Zhang Qian was too curious.

He asked nervously: "Is this wolf demon very powerful?"

"Of course he is powerful, but he is not invulnerable." The man with a tiger's back and a monkey's waist took over the words: "One night, I was lucky enough to throw it with a steel fork, and the wolf demon bled all over the ground, and it didn't appear again for three days. It appeared before, but three days later it returned to its original state and came to the village to eat people again."

Ok?
Can a steel fork hurt you?

According to this, this wolf demon may have just become a demon not long ago.

Chen Yun had some chances of winning, but he still didn't speak.

Zhang Qian continued to ask: "Since the steel fork can hurt it, why are you so nervous?"

"Hey, sir, you don't understand." Another short and stocky man sighed, "The wolf demon comes and goes like the wind, and its movements are lightning and flint. We can't hit it with our sharp weapons in the air. Moreover, when it goes back and forth, it flies sand and rocks. This There is so much confusion at night, what can I do about it?"

Oh, it turns out that the wolf demon has a strange speed and cannot be attacked by the Orion.

Although Chen Yun has some chances of winning, he is not prepared to risk his life.

Getting ready to say goodbye.

The man with a tiger's back and a monkey's waist suddenly said: "Actually, the wolf demon is not very scary. It is like a brick house. It can't break into it. Only those who live in thatched houses or wooden houses will suffer. Besides, it can't break in." We dare not go ten feet away from Laojun Temple in the village, so in order for everyone to survive, the old lady will let everyone gather and camp near Laojun Temple these days and nights, and there have been no more casualties in recent days."

Hearing this, Chen Yun breathed a sigh of relief. Since there is a "safe area", he and Zhang Qian no longer need to turn around to find a place to stay, which can save time on the road.

He bowed and saluted again and said: "You heroes, it's really late today. There is no village or shop in this place. Can my brother and I stay overnight at your village?"

"This... is not good." Gao Liang said hesitantly: "It's not that I want to shut you out, it's just... it's just... well, it's not convenient."

He thought for a long time but couldn't think of a reason to refuse.

Chen Yun didn't understand. The other party probably wanted some benefits.

He didn't want to delay his progress, so he simply said: "If Mr. Gao is willing to let us stay for one night, I am willing to give you two hundred coins as a thank you."

Chen Yun can give a tael of silver to a beggar, but he is not willing to give more if the beggar actively asks for benefits. There is an essential difference between the two.

The former is to accumulate good deeds by oneself.

The latter is more like a transaction, and in the current society, a hotel with decent guest rooms only costs [-] cash for a night's stay. Now, when staying in the countryside, Chen Yun's two hundred cash is already a lot.

As expected, when several people heard that there was money, their eyes brightened.

The short and stocky man immediately said: "Daozhang Chen, stay at my house."

"What trouble are you making?" Gao Liang glared at him fiercely, and then looked at Chen Yun with a smile, "Taoist priest, how come there are people living in his earthen house? Maybe the wolf monster breaks in at night and takes people in his mouth. Come on, stay at my house. My house is made of blue bricks and tiles. You and your two brothers don’t have to crowd around Laojun Temple at night and can still sleep peacefully."

The other people didn't say anything, because they were all from poor families and lived in poor houses, and they had to take refuge near Laojun Temple at night.

When Chen Yun saw that he was sleeping peacefully, he turned his head and asked for advice: "Senior Brother Zhang, what do you think?"

Zhang Qian naturally didn't want to sleep in the open air, "You can make the decision."

"Yes." Chen Yun responded and took out the broken silver from his pocket, "There are about two coins here. I'm disturbing the tall man tonight."

Gao Liang took the money and smiled broadly, "Don't bother, don't bother."

Finally a place to stay.

Chen Yun just wants to have a good sleep and leave here as soon as possible tomorrow to avoid any more accidents.

He secretly thought that if he hid in Gao Liang's house tonight, even if the wolf demon really attacked, he and Zhang Qian would not be in danger.

Chen Yun's idea is very simple. Although subduing demons is also about accumulating good deeds, he will definitely not take risks without absolute certainty.

He didn't want to die before he left the army. Accumulating good deeds must be based on the premise that he was absolutely sure.

Hope nothing unexpected happens tonight.

Chen Yun prayed secretly in his heart, but he felt that since Gao Liang and others said that the wolf demon was unable to break into the brick house, he and Zhang Qian should not encounter any danger.

He thought so, but in fact Chen Yun was not that afraid of this wolf demon. After listening to the words of several hunters just now, he could probably judge the strength of the wolf demon. It was probably just a little stronger than ordinary beasts. After all, it was still a mortal body. As long as he can hit it with the Flame Talisman, he can basically destroy the wolf monster, and there is a high probability of killing it with one hit.

It's just that Orion described the wolf demon as being extremely fast, and Chen Yun might not be sure that the flame talisman would hit the opponent, so he didn't really want to fight against it.
