Chapter 5 Apprenticeship

Looking at Su Youbai's painful expression, Xiao Lang thought that he really showed the Guiyi sword, but he really let him take out a literary sword, although Xiao Lang is not a blacksmith, but at a glance it can be seen that the level of this sword production is quite average, it is not a flying sword at all, at best, it is made by a vulgar blacksmith, and it is just an ornament.

Ordinary cultivators who would carry this kind of ornament with them, even if it is the ordinary iron sword in Xiao Lang's treasure bag, it is also a standard weapon, which is used to kill the enemy.

From another angle, this sword is quite exquisitely made, the sword body is made up of delicate lines, faintly glowing, and the hilt is inlaid with a large piece of beautifully carved jadeite, which is worth a lot at a glance, and it is a superb sword used to hook up with the little girl.

This is a token of love given to Su Youbai by a certain little lady, of course, the true origin of this sword is in front of Pu Niang, and he Su Dagongzi will never say it.

Originally, if it weren't for Ah Hei's fierce words, he would never have taken out this sword, according to what he thought, if he really took out other high-grade flying swords, these mortals would be able to see what was good.

But who would have thought that Ah Hei and Pu Niang's expressions froze suddenly, not because of this flashy sword, but because of Su Youbai's treasure bag.

"So you're cultivators?" Pu Niang asked.

"Pu Niang, hurry up and send these two plague gods away, if the government knows, we can't afford to be guilty." Ah Hei said hurriedly.

Xiao Su and the others looked nervous, and they didn't know which one they sang this again.

"We are cultivators from the earthly path." Now, Su Youbai has revealed the magic weapon that only cultivators can use, it seems that Pu Niang and the others are also well-informed, and their identities naturally can't be hidden, so they simply admit it generously, but they are a little unclear about Pu Niang's cautious attitude, so in this ghost road, is it possible that there are any taboos for cultivators?

"Did you really strayed into the ghost path?" Pu Niang's expression was a little solemn, and her tone was cold.

"It's not a mistake. Who would come in on purpose? Su Youbai asked rhetorically.

On the side, Ah Hei gave Pu Niang a look, and at first he was afraid of being seen by Xiao Su and the others, but seeing that Pu Niang didn't pay attention to it, he directly pulled Pu Niang's shoulders over. Stared into her eyes and said, "Pu Niang, a cultivator who secretly hides the Dao of the world, but the great sin of the soul is scattered, what are you still thinking about!" ”

Xiao Lang and Su Youbai were puzzled for a while, but there was no need to lie to himself when they thought about it, it seemed that the human cultivators had indeed committed some taboos in this ghost path.

The best way to be safe is to kill people and kill people, but the two of them are not evil demon cultivators, and they will never be able to do this kind of murder and killing.

Report to the official, just report to the official, killing those ghost soldiers will not have too much psychological pressure.

Pu Niang thought for a while. Only then did he lightly say to Xiao Su and the others: "Two sons, whether you are mistakenly intruding into the ghost path or deliberately, you can all stay at my Fulai Inn tonight, and invite yourself to leave tomorrow morning." We will have nothing to do with it in the future. ”

"Pu Niang!" Hei said immediately.

Naturally, he would not agree to Pu Niang taking such a risk for two outsiders.

Pu Niang was unmoved, and called the six-handed Xiaoer, who wanted Xiao Su and the two to live in the upper room of the first number.

"If there is really any trouble, why don't we leave, if it brings the two of them to death, we can't help it." Xiao Lang said.

"There is a curfew at night in the city, if you two are still walking around in the city at night. There will be a patrol officer. And in our place, there is a certificate to stay in, if you two are ordinary Yang people, it is convenient to go to the government to get a new one, but since you are cultivators, then going to the government is to throw yourself into the net. Pu Niang made up her mind: "You can stay for the time being tonight." It will be much more convenient for you to leave the capital city early tomorrow morning. ”

"Thank you Pu Niang for that."

In fact, until now, Su Youbai and Xiao Lang didn't feel that this was a matter of much risk.

"By the way, you are in Lao Wutou, that is, the boatman who sent you, and you haven't revealed that you are cultivators." Pu Niang asked.

"No, no." Su Youbai recalled carefully and replied: "But we also used a hundred treasure bags in front of him. ”

"That's okay, old Wu can't recognize it."

After speaking, Pu Niang didn't answer anymore and walked into the boudoir by herself.

Seeing that he couldn't stop Pu Niang, Ah Hei had to stomp his feet at the door of the boudoir hatefully, and then he was unwilling to leave, and when he left, he said viciously to Xiao Su and the others: "If you are really worried about affecting Pu Niang, it is best to get out of here tonight!" ”――

Xiao Su and the others did not listen to Ah Hei's words and immediately "get out", but chose to honestly follow the six-handed Xiaoer into the guest room.

This little second naturally heard the identities of the two, but he didn't say anything, and when he left, he said meaningfully that someone would bring you dinner later.

What happened all day today really made the two of them feel a little exhausted, first in the Yingxia Mountain with all kinds of unknown cultivators in a bloody battle, and then chased the Dongying ninja thousands of miles to the Dead Barren Plains, and then he was stunned, there is a kind of newborn calf is not afraid of the tiger's "spirit", was deceived into this ghost road, and fought with the two ninjas who are really good, and finally crossed the Lechuan River to such a capital city.

Rao is cultivator's energy is far from comparable, but at this point, he has a feeling of getting tired and lying down, and he just wants to sleep comfortably first.

But in such a ghost place, who would dare to sleep steadily?

Originally, I met a proprietress who was quite kind to them, thinking that I could figure out the situation, but who would have thought that not only did not ask the way back, but instead made such a thing, although with the concentration of the two of them, it would not be difficult to sleep and eat, and it was uncertain, but it was an annoying thing after all.

"I said, why doesn't this ghost path exclude ordinary people from the human realm, but it strictly guards against cultivators?" Su Youbai asked.

Xiao Lang shook his head, he was also puzzled by this question, but he was worried about other things: "If there are no cultivators in this ghost path, then the ordinary servants in the official mansion are actually decorations for the two of us, although we can't fly with the sword now, but these mortals can't help us after all, but if there are cultivators in this ghost path, then we will be unable to escape." ”

Su Youbai thought of this weight. His face inevitably deteriorated, and he replied: "It's also one of the six realms, it doesn't make sense that we have cultivators in the human realm, but there are no ghosts." Hey, it's really troublesome now, and the most troublesome thing is that we don't know where this trouble comes from. ”

Xiao Lang thought it was true, if they knew why the people of the Ghost Dao were so wary of cultivators, they might as well prepare countermeasures in advance, otherwise, they wouldn't be able to suppress the cultivators here forever.

What's more, even if you don't make a move, the way back with mortal means is probably more difficult than climbing to the sky.

After a while. Su Youbai, who seemed to have finished pranayama, asked Xiao Lang again with a puzzled face: "I don't know if you have noticed it, the aura of heaven and earth here is completely different from the Dao of the world, I have been running for several weeks, but I can't absorb a little aura." ”

If this is to be asked to another player. Obviously, asking is also a vain question, whether it is pranayama meditation or practicing exercises, players never need to run Zhou Tian, only time and experience are needed, but fortunately, Xiao Lang has followed Xuan Ji for so long, and he also knows what Su Youbai is asking.

Xiao Lang immediately opened the character panel, and sure enough, it was the same situation as Su Youbai's description. Xiao Lang's current qi and blood value and mana value are 725 and 1095 respectively, and after fighting hard with Mu Lao Ghost, his qi and blood value dropped to 470 points, and the mana value is only 280 points left.

If it is normal, such a long time passes, relying on the amount of recovery brought by the attribute. Xiao Lang should have been full of blood and blue, but now his qi and blood are still 470 points, and his mana is still 280 points.

Not a single touch!

In other words, in the Ghost Road, this is a special scene that is not a special scene. Xiao Lang's most important means of recovery was completely restricted.

That's a bit of a fatal thing.

I didn't notice this when I was desperate with Mu Lao Ghost Gate before, after all, under that kind of battle intensity, the amount of recovery brought by the attribute was completely negligible, and it was directly topped with potion, and after the battle, in the face of such a strange place, Xiao Lang didn't think about deliberately going to see if the qi and blood mana had recovered.

Now under Su Youbai's reminder, Xiao Lang thought of this stubble.

There are naturally many differences between indigenous cultivators and players, what is the five elements of heaven and earth, the great principle of the rotation of heaven and earth, and the rotation of Zhou Tian will not be talked about for the time being, but only the most practical: indigenous cultivators like Su Youbai, if they want to recover mana and ordinary injuries, as long as they run the basic exercises he is practicing (when the cultivation is high to a certain extent, even if they do not deliberately operate, the exercises will run automatically, but the speed is slower), they can draw spiritual power from heaven and earth to replenish their own body, if they encounter serious injuries that hurt their muscles and bones, they need to rely on pills to repair and supplement the spiritual power of heaven and earth.

But for the player, naturally there is no need to run the exercises so troublesomely, the system automatically helps the player "execute" this step, which is reflected in the character panel, that is, the higher the attributes, the more qi and blood mana will be recovered in the non-combat state, and the higher the innate attributes, even in the combat state, more qi and blood mana can be recovered.

Whether it is a minor injury or a severed limb, you can rely on attribute recovery to achieve the effect of Brother Xinchun, of course, the premise is that you can't enter a state of serious injury.

But obviously, this ghost path is completely different from the human dao, and the most fundamental difference is reflected in the aura of this heaven and earth, Su Youbai can't rely on the operation of the exercises to restore his combat effectiveness, and Xiao Lang naturally can't rely on attributes to recover his qi and blood mana.

That's pretty tricky.

It is foreseeable that there will be a lot of vicious battles in the future, but as the most basic means of recovery, they have been cut off, which is really not good news for Xiao Su and the others.

Fortunately, Xiao Lang has received a lot of recovery products since his trip to the Great Sanctuary, and because of their close relationship with Xia Xiaoci, many good things created by the royal alchemists in their alliance have also fallen into Xiao Lang's treasure bag, and it is not a big problem to support it for a period of time, and Su Youbai's Yingtian Academy, although alchemy is not its strong point, but after all, during the battle between the two factions, Su Youbai, a descendant disciple, will naturally have a lot of inventory on him.

For the sake of prudence, Xiao Lang first took out the supplies in the non-combat state and tried them, and sure enough, it was almost useless as if they were used by the indigenous cultivators, but it was expected that those pills that could be used in the combat state could still be fully recovered.

The supplement is actually equivalent to a medicine primer, the function is to allow the player to accelerate the absorption of heaven and earth aura, so as to achieve the effect of rapid recovery. But the pills are different, they contain a spiritual power in themselves, and they can naturally all take effect, which is why the recovery product system of the Illusory World distinguishes between the two medicines used in the combat state and the non-combat state.

If it was put in the past, Xiao Lang, like other players, knew it but didn't know why. But now I have experienced it myself.

Su Youbai saw Xiao Lang doing this, and when he couldn't absorb the aura to recover, he had to take out the pill and swallow it.

"It seems that in the future, we will have to do less if we can do less, God knows how long we will be trapped here. When the elixir is exhausted, I can't say that we will really become mortals. Su Youbai smiled bitterly.

What he said was right, if the cultivator didn't have that kind of heavenly magic attack, clever Gang Qi protection, and couldn't use the flying sword and magic weapon, even if his physical fitness was far beyond ordinary people, it would be a matter of casually coming hundreds of soldiers to spit foam.

Xiao Lang replied: "This is probably difficult. ”

"How?" Su Youbai was really very sensitive, thinking that Xiao Lang had noticed something wrong, so he immediately sacrificed the Guiyi Sword and asked.

"Don't be so nervous," Xiao Lang smiled and said calmly, "I just thought that we would probably meet those Dongying ninjas on this trip." ”

"How is that possible?" Su Youbai breathed a sigh of relief. said: "I think that the old ghost called Mu, nine out of ten sentences are false, the only thing that is not false is that this ghost road has gone and has no return, even if they have a way to get in, it is impossible to get out." ”

Xiao Lang smiled slightly. replied: "If you have a choice, do you want them to have a way back, or do you want them to find a way back?" ”

"Of course they can find their way back, after all, if they can find it, it means that we can find it too." Su Youbai said, and then he was a little puzzled, "How can you be sure that they know that there is a way back?" ”

"I can't be sure though. But there is at least an eighty percent chance," Xiao Lang said: "Think about it, the people of the Ghost Dao will not really die after they die, but will reunite with their souls in the flesh, is it very similar to those aliens." ”

Su Youbai nodded.

"I've seen a great power capture the white light of the Inhuman's death, but even the one who cultivated to the heavens. They can't completely lock in the white light, and they will eventually have to fly away. Xiao Lang said that the power of heaven is naturally Xuan Ji: "But the two Dongying ninjas we have seen actually used magic weapons to restrain the soul white light of Xue Jingqiu and the others, don't you think it is a means that will appear here?" ”

The soul white light of Xue Jingqiu and the nameless two was the magic weapon that was bound to the two ninjas in the group of ninjas at the gate, and those two ninjas had already been slashed by Su Youbai's sword from the west. It's a pity that after they died, they couldn't find the magic weapon from them, maybe it was picked up by the old ghost Mu and destroyed in the advent of the tree realm, or maybe Su Youbai forgot about this stubble at that time, and didn't look for it carefully at all.

But these are not the point at the moment, the point is that this kind of means of restraining the soul is really unheard of in the human world, but it seems that in this ghost path, even for mortals, they have heard of it a little, which means that those Dongying ninjas are likely to get this magic weapon from here and bring it out, so as to perfectly restrain the "immortal" aliens.

Su Youbai suddenly realized and said, "No wonder you had to ask Pu Niang that strange question just now." ”

Speaking of this, Su Youbai also had to admire Xiao Lang's cleverness: "It is said that demon clan cultivators can only use brute force, but in you, I can't see it at all." Not only do you use Taoist methods, but you also have martial arts that are even unique to Dongying, you are really a strange person. ”

This refers to what Xiao Lang exposed in the battle with the gate.

Xiao Lang said casually: "In the early years, I was playful, I traveled to various places, and there were a lot of miscellaneous things that I learned naturally. ”

No matter how stupid Su Youbai is, he will not believe this kind of perfunctory words, and just wanted to ask, "I don't know anything else, but this Taoist method must be from the authentic Daomen exercises", but was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.

Xiao Su and the others can naturally sense that they are just two ordinary people when they go out, and one of them is still an old acquaintance and a six-handed junior.

This kind of induction doesn't need to be very ingenious, at least everyone can smell the aroma of the food.

In addition to the six-handed little two, there is also a big mouth that comes in.

It's really a big mouth, and the vendor that Xiao Su and the others have seen before should be a "breed", with a single eye on his forehead, and his entire chin is occupied by a big mouth.

Ah Liu brought up a few plates of food, and said quite politely: "Please rest assured, this time it is all vegetarian dishes, and even the stir-fry pot is newly bought." Absolutely. ”

It turned out that there were only three people in the entire Fulai Inn, a boss and a bookkeeper Pu Niang, a junior Era Liu, and a big-mouthed cook. The name is also quite simple, just Big Mouth.

The big mouth grinned, feeling that his entire chin was torn in half, and the original terrifying expression on his face looked a little innocent.

I only heard him say: "I learned all my skills from the proprietress, you two taste it, see if it suits your taste." ”

Xiao Su and the two glanced at each other, both of them were a little confused, although they said that they had nothing to do, and they were usually either traitors or thieves, but obviously there was nothing to steal from the two of them. It's not like this big mouth has poisoned the food, so I'm going to drug the two of them and then escort them to the government.

Moreover, this Ah Liu knew the identity of Xiao Su and the two human Taoist cultivators, and Pu Niang did not shy away from this in front of him, obviously because she and Ah Liu were quite close and would not shy away from these.

Now that Ah Liu knows. Besides, it is a big crime to hide a cultivator here, so it stands to reason that even if he and Dazui don't go to report to the official, they must be afraid that they won't be able to hide, and this trip to offer hospitality is really a bit unpredictable.

However, if you don't stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, Xiao Su and the others are not worried about any poison in the meal, especially Xiao Lang, in fact, there is no problem with eating poison as a meal. I simply ate it in front of others.

Tender green garlic and oily wheat, golden hot and sour bean sprouts, fragrant rice, I have to say that this big-mouthed craftsmanship is really good, and it is also a first-class chef level in the world, and what is even more rare is that they can name these vegetarian dishes.

Seeing that the two of them were eating sweetly, Big Mouth laughed innocently again. From time to time, he also took a burlap to wipe the saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth.

After the two finished eating, they just wanted to ask something, when they saw Ah Liuhe kneeling on the ground with a plop, and shouted loudly: "The master is above, please accept the apprentice's worship." ”

I almost didn't scare Xiao Su and the others!

Which one is this singing?

Although the two of them cultivated to reach the fetal period. I have long had the qualifications to accept disciples, and if I put it in some small sects, I can't say that I will be worshiped by the disciples and grandchildren as ancestors, but the days of cultivation are still short, and I am only a small character in the cultivator world, and I have never experienced this.

It's like a college student giving up her seat to a woman with a child in exchange for a thank you uncle and aunt like egg pain, or lactic acid.

Let Ah Liu and Dazui kneel, they didn't come to their senses for a long time, Su Youbai held back for a long time and said: "You two get up first, we have something to discuss, let's discuss." ”

"If the master doesn't accept the apprentice, the apprentice won't be able to get up, and you have eaten the apprenticeship banquet just now." Ah Liu said.

Su Youbai looked at Xiao Lang in embarrassment, and found that Xiao Lang was also embarrassed, the meal just now was not a Hongmen banquet, but it was more troublesome than the Hongmen banquet.

But where is this, the future of his side is still uncertain, and two apprentices suddenly appeared here.

Su Youbai pondered his words, barely squeezed out a smile, and said: "Look, the two of us are cultivators from the Dao of the world, and we are serious offenders here. ”

"Our brothers have already considered it, as long as the master agrees, we will immediately go to the countryside to find a secluded place, the government is not so capable, we can't find it."

Su Youbai was directly blocked, and the people were obviously prepared, and it was not something that could be dismissed in one or two sentences.

"Will your boss agree, there are only two of you in this Fulai Inn, you guys are leaving, and you won't let Pu Niang pass." Su Youbai said again.

Ah Liu smiled and said: "The two of us have been with the boss for so many years, how can we not know the mind of the boss lady, master, think about it, if the boss lady does not have this idea in her heart, will she take in the two." ”

This was beyond the expectations of Xiao Su and the others, could it be that the reason why Pu Niang decided to take in the two at the risk of killing their heads was also because they wanted to cultivate immortals?

But that doesn't make sense!

"You are so decent, why do you insist on cultivating immortals, besides, you don't seem to have any immortals to cultivate here, right?" Su Youbai asked.

"If we know how to spell, no one will be able to bully us." The big mouth replied quite honestly.

Maybe in the eyes of ordinary people, immortality or something is too far away, and it is right not to be bullied, or to bully and bully people.
