A white and slender palm holds a pale cyan bamboo.

It is about the thickness of a child's arm, and there are some branches and leaves on the bamboo, which are fresh and green. One end was sealed, and a small seven-petaled flower grew strangely at the other end.

The petals and stamens are all white, crystal clear, and there seems to be a faint smoke rising in the sunlight.

Long Qiu held the empty bamboo, and did not move, as if waiting for something to break out of the cocoon.

After a long while, Takeuchi suddenly emitted a faint fluctuation, and at the same time there was a rustling crawling sound. The thing started at the bottom and crawled forward slowly, and with each inch of progress, the pale cyan of the bamboo's outer skin faded a minute.

After a while, the contents reached the top, and the rustling stopped.

After another moment, the little flower swayed gently, and a ladybug-like new Gu lay on the core of the flower, sucking the stamen's juice. It is smaller than a fingernail, eight-legged, and the carapace is in the shape of a yin-yang fish, black and white.

It quickly absorbed the flower sap, flapped its wings, and obediently stopped on Long Qiu's fingers. At the same time, the small flower withered in an instant, and the empty bamboo turned into a withered yellow bamboo tube.

It's finally done!

Long Qiu was greatly pleased, she had spent countless resources and experimented thousands of times, and finally refined this Gu worm that had never existed before-Yin and Yang Associated Gu.

As long as you have practiced the Qi Nourishing Method a little and then planted this Gu, the body will become a yin and yang cycle, which will help you guide your luck and grow together.

Although the highest realm can only reach the innate level, after the innate this Gu will no longer grow, and it will die the next year, it is undoubtedly a pioneering feat for the entire cultivation world.

Because there is another way to promote the innate nature, I still studied it myself. I have to say that Xiaoqiu was originally selected as the grass ghost woman, and her master is also discerning.

"Hmm......"

Long Qiu completed the experiment of his heart, he was in a good mood, and it was rare to recover the posture of his little daughter, and he stretched his waist coquettishly. And then, her face changed, and she received Xiao Jin's divine thoughts.

Back Mountain, Mirror Lake.

The golden cicada leaned on the willow tree by the lake, holding a jade flute, and could not play it for a long time. The mysterious man's words obviously caused him a lot of trouble, and even the thought in his mind began to rage, and there was a tendency to overwhelm reason.

He sighed, put one hand behind his head and tried to close his eyes to rest, but then he jumped off the tree with a slight expression.

"Sister!"

Long Qiu was dressed in a green shirt and appeared on the edge of the Mirror Lake, in addition to his ethereal appearance, he also had some dignified and chic, peerless. She beckoned and called, "Come!"

The golden cicada ran over and was touched in enjoyment, and the anxiety quickly dissolved.

"I know everything, tell me what's going on?"

It was impossible for Jin Cicada to lie to her, and after a pause, she described it honestly.

"What is the other party like?"

"A very ordinary man, so ordinary that he has no features. It should have used the Technique of Alteration and Concealment, but that wasn't the real thing. ”

"Are you sure it's a spirit?"

"Sure. It didn't seem to have a purpose in this trip, but it was just in a flash of interest, and somehow it knew that Jiuxia was going down the mountain, so it ran to sneak attack...... Its hostility towards us is clear. ”

“……”

Long Qiu was silent, Jiuru was attacked, and he was naturally very angry, but it was a bit far-fetched and unreasonable to say that because of Jin Cicada's concealment, he missed the best opportunity to hunt down the murderer.

After all, it is a fake appearance, there are so many people in Baicheng, how can they find it? Moreover, the other party has immortal combat power, and ordinary disciples are looking for death if they scatter it.

It seems that Magnolia Bead's divination is right, the catastrophe is coming, and the demon disaster has started!

Demons are easy to fight, but demons become human beings and hide in society, and the difficulty is increased hundreds of times. According to the description, that demon is extremely intelligent, bold and resolute, and it can retreat with one blow when it infiltrates Baicheng, and it is not an extraordinary thing.

No one thought that this matter would be related to the Tao family......

Long Qiu put aside his thoughts for the time being, looked at the golden cicada, and suddenly asked, "What are you worried about?"

"I ......"

Jin Cicada lowered his head and did not respond.

"Alas, you have read so many books in vain. ”

Long Qiu felt a little regretful and sighed: "I have seen your efforts in the past few years. But I told you a long time ago that in addition to being close to me, you should also treat people with sincerity and make more friends.

You are literate and educated, learn art and etiquette, and are very polite to anyone, but you are also full of a sense of distance. A person's existence stems from his social relationships, and if you don't even have your own friends and enemies, how can you talk about integration?

You only trust me, you don't trust others, so when this thing comes, you will think about hiding it because you are afraid of being suspected. ”

“……”

Jin Cicada was pitiful and aggrieved and helpless, unable to say a word.

"Okay, I'll go talk to Xiao Jin about this, don't take it to heart. Thanks to you this time, Jiu Ru was spared, and you have made a meritorious service. ”

Long Qiu touched his head again, turning into a puff of green smoke and disappearing.

…………

Bang!

A monk swung his long sword and floated over like a ghost, and before he could make a move, he felt a hand dig into his chest and pierce it directly.

"You, you ......"

His eyes widened, and he fell to the ground with a look of disbelief, like a few of his companions.

This is the outskirts of a small town west of Ruili, and it is clear that it has just experienced a battle. Tao Yu saw that the enemy was dead, Fang Zhan rushed over tremblingly, held the big hammer-like hand, and was extremely emotional:

"Ah Hui, thanks to you! Thanks to you! You saved me five times and three times, how can I repay you...... From now on, you and I will be brothers, and if you have my share, you will have your share!"

His behavior is five points true and five points false, but he is just buying people's hearts.

Tao Hui didn't seem to hear it, still clumsy and straightforward, "Ah, it's okay, isn't the bodyguard doing this?"

While the two were talking, another subordinate searched for a corpse, turned out a jade plaque, and said, "Brother Yu, it's from the Hu family!"

"The Hu family?"

Tao Yu was stunned for a moment, and then his face was full of ruthlessness, "The news is fast, come over to grab food in such a hurry, and don't see if you have teeth!"

The Hu family, a local tyrant in southern Yunnan, also does jade business, and has always avoided the Tao family.

But not long ago, someone from Phoenix Mountain came and pulled out the business flag under everyone's noses.

Good guys, the provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou are like explosions. The Tao family has bullied the market in recent years and provoked an enemy, but now the backer has fallen, like a piece of fat removed from the iron cage, surrounded by a circle of hungry dogs.

In a short period of time, the Tao family's customers have been greatly lost, and there are people everywhere who continue to make ghosts. Now it's even worse, it's actually killing people directly!

"Brother Yu, what should we do, we can't be unbeaten all the time, right?" the subordinate asked.

But the most important thing at the moment is to stabilize the remaining customer base, so that the mining area can resume mining and business as usual. Tao Yu is quite calm.

"Then should I go to Zhenqingguan for a run?" asked the subordinate.

Zhenqingguan is an ancient temple in Yunnan Province, and it is also the master of a certain elder of the Taoist Academy. What he meant was to take the line of the Taoist Academy and find a new backer.

"Since I have left Phoenix Mountain, I don't want anyone to press on my head anymore...... Don't be afraid, we are businessmen, and we are only businessmen when we do things in the mall. Phoenix Mountain and the Taoist Academy are high up, and they will not take us seriously, but will be very relaxed. ”

Tao Yu turned his head, stared at Tao Hui, and said, "Ah Hui, now there is something to be handed over to you, whether my Tao family can stand firm in western Yunnan depends on you!"

"You say. ”

"Monks fight, do not break the precepts. You go to southern Yunnan and eastern Yunnan, and destroy the Hu and Huang families for me!"

Sizzle!

The subordinates were shocked, the Hu and Huang families have been in business for a long time, they are deep-rooted, and the monks they raise are not trivial, he can really do it if he goes alone?

Tao Hui didn't seem to know anything, and nodded: "Well, I'll go tomorrow!"

"Good!"

Tao Yu was overjoyed, patted his, uh, chest, and said, "I promise you, after the matter is completed, you will be my own brother, and we will break out of our own world!"

He was a little foolish before, but now he has a real feeling.

He has seen the strength of this person, strong, very strong. What's even more rare is that the temperament is pure, simple and direct. If you can really take it for your own use, it is also excellent as a confidant.

The subordinates also glanced at Tao Hui, and secretly complained, stupid big man, it's easy to say if you win, if you die, you will die in vain.

Tao Hui felt the psychological activities of the two of them clearly, and couldn't help but snort coldly.

He stepped into the red dust for several months, and the longer he stayed, the more his thoughts changed. For example, this time, someone from Phoenix Mountain came, and he wanted to kill the other party, let the Tao family take the blame, and then evacuate himself.

As a result, I changed my mind temporarily, and it doesn't seem to make any sense!

He saw the red dust, the insight into people's hearts, and more and more realized a truth: wealth and power are the two magic weapons in the world, and with these two points, you can do many, many things.

Instead of doing some damage and letting the Tao family perish, it is better to operate it yourself and accumulate strength.

Three months later, Tao House.

Different from before, Tao Yu can be described as high-spirited, listening to the report of his subordinates with a red face: "All the business has been on the right track, customers are gradually returning, and last month's profit is almost the same as the same period last year......"

"Have all those sects gone to take care of it?"

"Well, there are three of them, and they promise not to interfere with each other. ”

"Good, good!"

Tao Yu nodded, walked to the middle with a wine glass, and said, "There was a little setback this time, but fortunately, it has passed, who has the greatest credit, I think you all know." Tao Hui and I have not been for a long time, but the strength is there, I will officially announce it today, and in the future, he will be responsible for recruiting, managing, and cultivating monks, and all departments must cooperate.

I can tell you, this is my brother, don't give me any qualifications!"

"Yes!"

Everyone looked at each other, and there was no dissatisfaction, after all, the stupid big man had a brilliant record.

"Come, toast together!"

Tao Yu signaled, everyone cheered and got up, and touched one together.

Tao Hui also held the cup, feeling the clear and sweet spirit wine flowing down his throat, breeding bursts of comfort in his stomach, and he actually liked it a little.

Humans will enjoy it, and I feel more and more like a human being.

But I'm sorry, I'm a demon!

(Wow, can you be reliable?? Buy a box of amoxicillin and try it in the water at night...... ）
