I have a heavenly book of merit and virtue

Chapter 33 "Shangqing Xuanjing Qi Entrainment Technique"

When they arrived at the back office, they saw Liu Laodao lying on a Taishi chair with a rosy complexion. He was drinking, shaking his head and humming a ditty:

"The way is the way...the way is the way, the way is the way, the way of heaven, the way of humanity, the way of the sword..."

Sensing the figure approaching, he raised his eyelids slightly and saw Chen Yan in front of him, asking lazily:

"Why don't you go to the Three Treasures Palace today without anything to do? The medicinal bath is not so fast. It was just reported yesterday. It will take seven days at the earliest to be delivered to Shanxi Town."

Chen Yan came closer, with a shy face, and said rather embarrassedly:
  "I'm not in a hurry. You're mainly here to borrow something from Liu Laodao today..."

"Borrow something?"

Liu Laodao straightened up vigilantly, glanced at Chen Yan warily, and said:
  "I told you beforehand that I don't have any money."

"It's not a loan!"

Chen Yan's head was full of black threads when he heard this: "I came here today to ask you, Mr. Liu, to borrow the talisman pens, yellow paper, and cinnabar used to draw talismans..."

"Charm pen, yellow paper, cinnabar..." Liu Laodao frowned more and more as he listened. Finally, he glared at Chen Yan displeasedly and scolded with a rather stern expression:

"I saw that you guy got carried away after killing two thieves. He wanted to learn to run before he could walk. Don't despise training just because you think you have some talent in martial arts!

Cultivation is much more difficult than you think. I, an old Taoist, spent three years cultivating my mind and calming my Qi in the mountains. I also read the Taoist canon for three years, and finally consolidated my foundation and cultivated my Qi for three years. Only then did my master give me the method to introduce Qi into my body and turn it into essence. …”

Speaking of this, Liu Laodao glanced sideways at Chen Yan and said:

"Where are you kid now? Have you finished reading "Taiwei Eight Views"? You're thinking about drawing the Eight Views Talisman before you even start reading it. Do you have the magic power to draw the Eight Scenery Talisman..."

Before Liu Laodao finished speaking, Chen Yan blinked innocently and said:
  "I have magic power."

"..."

Liu Laodao choked on his words, then his eyes widened, and he said with fury:
  "Can your kid have magic power?"

"Hmm."

Chen Yan nodded, and immediately clamped the evil-breaking and evil-killing talisman that Liu Laodao had given him before between his fingers, and injected it with mana. The talisman paper outlined with red cinnabar shone brightly. This is a state that the talisman can activate at any time. There is no Using the heart's yang blood obviously can't be fake.

Liu Laodao was dumbfounded at this time and his eyes were full of disbelief:
  "You kid actually developed magic power?"

Chen Yan nodded, and then briefly explained how he learned the "Five Grain Food and Qi Record" from the jade pendant given by the old woman by chance.

The old Taoist's face turned red after hearing this. Finally, he looked at Chen Yan with red eyes for a long time, and it took him a long time to say:

"I was born..."

That kind of look is like you have worked hard for three years in high school and only got into a three-level exam, but your classmates have been playing for three years and learned nothing but got promoted to 985. That feeling, why? A person who is extremely envious and jealous.

After a while to calm down, Liu Laodao let out a long sigh and said with great admiration:
  "This ancestor of the Chen family is indeed remarkable. I think he was a genius back then. He was the first of his generation to find a new way to create this method..."

Speaking of this, Liu Laodao could not help but warn Chen Yan:
  "But don't think that you can sit back and relax with this method. After all, this method is incomplete. At most, it will only be effective before your fetal breath. After your fetal breath, you have to rely on yourself. Moreover, according to the knowledge of the secret method, those immortals It is not that there are no secret sutras similar to this method in the authentic Buddhism, and they are even better.

Now that you have embarked on cultivation, you must guard against impatience and practice in a down-to-earth manner, you know? "

"Yes, yes, that's what you always taught me."

Chen Yan nodded humbly, and then said shyly: "Can the talisman pen, cinnabar and so on..."

"Let's go! Take your things and leave quickly. I don't want to see you now!"

Liu Laodao's face darkened, and he waved his hand angrily. In the blink of an eye, a stack of talisman paper, a box of cinnabar, and a talisman pen appeared in the air and flew towards Chen Yan. Chen Yan hurriedly took it and saw another object flying towards him. He took it and took a look and found that it was a jade slip that was similar to the record of grain and food intake. He raised his head in confusion:

"This is……?"

""Shangqing Xuanjing Qi-Inducing Technique", since you have introduced qi into the body, practice this method. This is the authentic qi-inducing technique of our Taoist sect. Most of the Taoist disciples practice this method."

"Liu Laodao..."

Chen Yan looked moved.

"Okay, okay, don't pee like a horse, I won't do this."

"No, I just want to ask the old Taoist if you, a treasure who needs mustard seeds, can also give me one..."

"roll!!!"

As a result, Chen Yan was kicked out of the Yamen in disgrace, causing all the policemen to suppress their laughter, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.

"This old man is just asking, he is so angry..."

Chen Yan dusted himself off in disgrace and cursed a few words, but there was a smile on his lips.

Although he and Liu Laodao were not called masters and disciples, they were actually masters and disciples. Although they didn't say it, Chen Yan actually regarded Liu Laodao as his master.

Taking the yellow paper and cinnabar with him, Chen Yan headed back towards Ping'an Fang.

Since Chen Yan and Liu Laodao killed many skinned puppets during this period, the real culprit behind the scenes seemed to have entered a period of dormancy, and even the people of the Rebirth Cult were rarely seen.

During this period, Shanxi Town has become a lot more peaceful. It has gradually regained some of its popularity, and you can feel that there are obviously more pedestrians on the streets.

Along the way, the sounds of small businessmen and hawkers could be heard endlessly, and there was an endless stream of pedestrians coming and going. The restaurants and teahouses on the street were noisy with gongs and drums, making it very lively.

"This is the breath of life."

Chen Yan interspersed in this secular world and realized the vicissitudes of life in this world.

Time came to dusk and evening, the sun set in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun dyed Shanxi Town a touch of red.

At this time, it was obvious that the brothel hook-up business was booming. From time to time, there were the laughter of young girls and the teasing of literati and merchants, which aroused the attention of passers-by.

Of course, there are also private prostitutes hiding in dark alleys on both sides of the street.

When he sees someone passing by, he goes up to solicit business. If he is lucky, he can get four or five businesses in one night.

Most of these young women are victims of the disaster who have fled to Shanxi Town and settled there. There are also some women from nearby rural areas who go to the city to earn money to support their families.

But in fact, not many of them fall into their hands, because a large part of them have to be turned over to the gangs.

"No! Brother Six! Please be kind! My brother is sick and needs money urgently. How about tomorrow? I will do more business tomorrow to make up for today's loss!"

A crying female voice suddenly sounded from the left side of Chen Yan.

Chen Yan stopped and looked around, only to see three green men surrounding a woman in a deserted alley. The leader had a scar on his left eye, showing a ruthless expression.

"I understand you, who understands me? Xiaoyun, this is not the first time you have done this. There are gang rules. If you do this, it will be very difficult for Sixth Brother to deal with you."
