Chapter 37: Second Update
The place agreed by the four of them is at Meizizhoutou, which is a famous attraction closest to the address of the relic mansion, because of the pleasant scenery and the production of a unique spiritual plant, which is constantly visited by tourists all year round. The four of them are also the best of the Jindan generation of monks, and if they meet in a random place, they will inevitably leak some rumors. Therefore, they all made some disguises, and stayed in an inn at the head of Meizizhou.
The first to arrive was naturally Emperor Fu Qi Yongyuan, he was not bound by the sect, and traveled around the mountains and rivers, so he stayed here early, and occasionally went to the market to buy some jade slips of this place, trying to find some clues.
Shen Potian and Zhu Ning arrived almost in a day, Shen Potian was wearing that big cloak, while Zhu Ning was transformed into a middle-aged casual cultivator, and he didn't attract anyone's attention. Xie Zhenghong followed the news they gave all the way to Room 8 on the third floor of the largest restaurant in the local area, and saw that the three of them were already sitting in it, so he was embarrassed to apologize.
"I'm sorry, but the poor monk is late." Xie Zhenghong said apologetically.
"It's okay, we've been here for a short time." Qi Yongyuan raised his eyebrows, and didn't seem to care, "I just don't know if Daoist friends drink or not?" After speaking, Qi Yongyuan shook the wine jug in his hand. Zhu Ning and Shen Potian didn't say anything, concentrating on watching the show.
"You can drink some." Xie Zhenghong didn't have so many rules of not eating or drinking, so he walked in and closed the door, picked up the wine glass and drank it all without the slightest reluctance.
"Yo, little monk, that's a hundred and twenty-year-old spirit wine, the strength of the wine is okay, you drink so hard, don't get drunk for a while." Wen Chunxiang was a little sour. Do the math, he had been trapped in the mountain behind Inshin Temple for almost twenty years without drinking. I didn't think about it before, but now that I saw Xie Zhenghong drinking so happily, the gluttonous worms in his stomach were hooked like this.
"Poor monks are not easily drunk." Xie Zhenghong put down his wine glass and sat down towards the three of them, and he didn't know who he was talking to.
Wen Chunxiang didn't have the heart to care about what Xie Zhenghong said now, all his thoughts were on the pot of wine. It's a pity that in his current state, the fighting method is okay, but the drinking is not good. If the distraction could have the same treatment as the main body, he would have been out of trouble a long time ago.
"Wine and meat have passed through the intestines, and the Buddha has left it in his heart, and I don't believe that you can't become a Buddha if you drink a little wine. Our Taoists still pay attention to Taoism and nature, but our cultivation of immortals has violated the way of heaven, so don't we have to wipe our necks collectively? I can't get used to the habit of the group of Buddhist cultivators in Huayan Sect who don't eat this or that, but I still thank Daoyou for being happy! Qi Yongyuan spoke without scruples, and his style of acting was very different from his gentle appearance. However, if a monk who can climb to the fourth place on the Tiandan list is a gentle person, it is unimaginable.
"What you said is reasonable, I toast you with a cup hahaha." Shen Potian smiled and touched wine glasses with Qi Yongyuan, and the two drank like this.
Zhu Ning and Xie Zhenghong glanced at each other, smiled bitterly, and took a glass of wine and tasted it slowly.
After three rounds of drinking, it's time to get down to business.
Because Yang Cheng said that the relict mansion will open for about ten days. However, considering that the relics are undeveloped, it may or may not be opened early, so they came a few days in advance. And Qi Yongyuan has been here for nearly two months, and he may know a lot more than him.
"I did find something." Qi Yongyuan flicked his finger on the table, and a jade slip appeared, motioning for the three of them to use their divine senses to take a look.
"The opening of the relics will always be accompanied by visions. I asked the proprietors who set up shop in the neighborhood and found that their visions of what had happened ten years ago were focused on the opening of Zhumei. It is very common for Zhumei to open on the Meizizhou side, but it seems that only the one ten years ago opened in a particularly grand way. I think it was the aura that leaked out of the relic's house when it was born that promoted the blooming of the plum. However, it seems that some of the monks who have recently come to Meizizhou have the same purpose as us. They're also looking for people to ask about what happened ten years ago. A smile appeared at the corner of Qi Yongyuan's mouth, "I have already found out, they are from the Jiang family of Canghaimen, and the most powerful one is the half-step Yuanying cultivator, it is estimated that he is the elder figure of their Jiang family, and there is not much worth noting about the rest." ”
"What kind of place is Canghaimen?" Shen Potian asked suspiciously.
"It's just a small sect." Qi Yongyuan waved his hand, "There haven't been any powerful characters, no wonder you haven't heard of it." ”
"The person the poor monk saved that day is named Yang Cheng, and his junior sister, it seems that he is from a small sect, I am afraid that those monks got the news from them." Xie Zhenghong thought about it and replied.
"Then I'm afraid something happened to them." Qi Yongyuan shrugged, "I look at the appearance of those monks, it seems that they know less than us. At least the rules on the surface are still maintained in the big sect, and if the small sect is upright, it is fine, although the Canghai sect is small, there are many internal contradictions. The Jiang family is a family in Canghaimen, and it has a very bad reputation. If those two monks accidentally leaked a little bit ......" Qi Yongyuan didn't say any more, but the other three had already understood what had happened.
In the cultivation realm, this kind of thing happens all the time, and there is nothing strange about it.
Even Shen Potian and the others would often encounter such a situation when they traveled outside.
"Amitabha." Xie Zhenghong recited a few verses of scripture for them silently, and they were acquainted.
"In the final analysis, after the last opening, this time the opening of the relics will definitely attract everyone's attention, and all we have to do is to make a time difference. It's best to go back quickly, otherwise there will be trouble. Zhu Ning said in a deep voice, "I have a few good Yirong Dan here. ”
Seeing Yi Rong Dan, Shen Potian's face turned green.
"Yi Rong Dan doesn't have much effect on people who have cultivated higher than us." Qi Yongyuan turned out four talismans with his backhand, "Why don't you try the 'Myriad Talisman' I drew recently, the little secret I learned from a jade slip is better than Yi Rong Dan, and my divine sense can't see through it." The only drawback is that the appearance it conjures up is full of uncertainty, whether it is male or female, old or young, it all depends on luck. ”
It's not a big deal to see the excitement, and there must be a lot of luck in it.
Zhu Ning is relatively aware of Qi Yongyuan's bad taste, and he doesn't have much joy for this talisman.
Shen Potian's eyes lit up, as long as he wasn't forced to take pills, he would be easy to say!
"How do you use this talisman?"
"It's simple, just stick it to the center of your eyebrows." Qi Yongyuan raised his eyebrows.
"Interesting, I'll try." Shen Potian picked up a talisman and put it on his eyebrows with great interest.
I saw that the talisman flashed in the center of the eyebrows, and before it entered the center of the eyebrows, a white light spread out from Shen Potian's body, and after a while, a man with a round face and thick lips, dark skin, and an honest appearance appeared, and it seemed that he couldn't find anyone when he pulled into the crowd.
"Not bad, not bad." Shen Potian turned into a water mirror, and he was quite satisfied with his appearance. He changed his expression a few more times towards the water mirror, dispersed the arrogance between his eyebrows, replaced the hair crown on his head with an ordinary style, and the sword qi on his body was all hidden, and he suddenly changed into a person, I am afraid that his master will not recognize him when he stands in front of him.
"This kaleidoscopic talisman will automatically expire after three days, and it will also expire if you are seriously injured, so it is best to protect yourself." Qi Yongyuan also picked up a talisman and put it between his eyebrows, turning into a dignified-looking young man. Qi Yongyuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and the whole person suddenly became frivolous. Fighting in front of Shen Potian, the two seem to have a relationship between a follower and a second-generation immortal, which is very common and unnoticeable.
"Zhu Daoyou, it's your turn." Shen Potian looked at Zhu Ning with a smile, this face looked extraordinarily honest when he smiled, but Zhu Ning couldn't help but tremble. He was accustomed to Shen Potian's arrogant and uninhibited appearance, and it was hard to imagine that the contrast was so big all of a sudden.
Zhu Ning had no choice but to do so.
He himself looked smart and high-spirited, and after using this talisman he turned into a pale and thin baby face, looking cowardly and timid, exactly the kind of monk that others looked down on the most. If Shen Potian is barely like a guard, then Zhu Ning's appearance is a little guy.
The three of them were diametrically opposed to the usual days, and suddenly Shen Potian and Zhu Ning also sensed that something was wrong.
"Ahem, there are a lot fewer records of these eternalization runes, and the rest of the runes are all completed by myself. It probably makes people look the exact opposite of what they normally do. But it's a good thing to hide our identity perfectly. Qi Yongyuan smiled openly, and seemed to be very satisfied with his appearance.
"Is it the opposite? I wonder what Xie Daoyou will become? ”
"It won't be the self-respecting appearance of Lie Lei Zhenjun." Shen Potian touched his chin.
"Possibly." Zhu Ning thought about the appearance of Lie Lei Zhenjun and said Amitabha Buddha to himself, and there was a strange sour feeling.
The eyes of the three of them shot straight towards Xie Zhenghong, and Xie Zhenghong was a little unbearable.
"Haha, this talisman is really interesting, why don't I go and study the talisman to know. Little monk, let this seat see what you will become? Wen Chunxiang seems to have a strong interest in this talisman.
Xie Zhenghong had no choice but to put the talisman on the center of his eyebrows.
"Poofhahahaha!" Wen Chunxiang was the first to laugh.
Qi Yongyuan, Shen Potian and the others also held back their laughter, and it seemed that they were holding back very hard.
"Laugh if you want." Xie Zhenghong waved his hand helplessly.
"Hahahaha."
"It's really all there now. The young master, the guard, the little guy and a beautiful woman! ”
"Ouch, no, prayer friends, you must give me a few of these talismans, no, I'll buy it, I'll spend spirit stones to buy hahaha!"
Xie Zhenghong looked at the beautiful woman with a bewitching face in the water mirror, and showed a helpless smile.
"If you look like this, little monk, maybe this seat will marry you as a Taoist couple, hahaha."
"Don't be joking, seniors."
