Chapter 14: Sable Essence
When I returned to the old pig fairy's house, the master sat on a chair in the hall and waited, and when he saw me come back empty-handed, the master's face did not seem to change. I lowered my head and replied, "Master, I didn't catch up, let it run away...... But I saw it turn into a small black animal, burrow into the bushes, and head all the way to the southeast. ”
The master glared at me, and said angrily: "Although that thing ran away, it was heavily injured by the magic talisman used for the teacher, and the Tao line was at least reduced by six or seven percent, barely using the cost to escape with a face, you can actually let it run away in such a simple matter, you can really do it!" ”
"Uh......" I sat down on the stool, pouting and said, "I'm so shallow, how can I catch up...... Besides, I didn't open the eyes of the sky, as soon as I arrived in the woods outside, it was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything at all, you originally said that after the matter in Xiangxi was over, you helped me open the eyes of the sky, and until now it is not unfulfilled......"
Master Huo Di stood up and reprimanded angrily: "This sentence has been said once as a teacher, and you can remember it clearly, so why do you always listen to the wind when the teacher has been urging you to cultivate diligently?" If you have some foundation, why don't you even smell that demonic fart?! ”
Just as the master reprimanded me, the old pig fairy cautiously closed the door of the inner room and walked out, and said excitedly: "It's really thanks to Senior Brother Yang, if you hadn't been improvised, I'm afraid my beautiful wife would have ...... Alas, it seems that you are really here this time, to say that I can also get rid of the demon, but it specifically picks on my weakness, my beautiful wife is my deadliest place, if my beautiful wife is gone, then there is no point in my life......"
Master asked with concern, "Have you settled your younger siblings?" ”
The old pig fairy handed back the bundle of immortal ropes to the master, and nodded and said, "It has been settled, but she has consumed a lot of yang energy, and I am afraid that she will not wake up until tomorrow during the day." But even so, I'm already happy, hehe! ”
Finally saw the cheap smile of the old pig fairy, originally when he was outside, he solved all the troubles between talking and laughing, but when he arrived at his house, he had a lot of scruples, that is, his beautiful wife. If that evil thing hadn't threatened him with his wife, he would have been able to get rid of that evil thing, but then again, what kind of animal was that evil thing in its original form?
Hearing that the old pig fairy's wife was fine, the master was also relieved, but after thinking about it, the master took the lead in opening his mouth: "Earlier, when I saw that demonic thing attached to my younger siblings, my eyes were purple cold light, old pig fairy, you used to be a spiritual cultivator, and you are well-informed about these, tell me, what is the origin of this demonic thing?" ”
Hearing this, the old pig fairy hesitated for a moment before he said with a cautious face: "There are many animal spirits whose eyes can emit purple cold light in the spiritual world, but there are not many that can be seen in the world, and they are very rare, except for the mastiff in the northwest region, which is a very rare sable. But it is obvious that the demon is not a spirit made by a mastiff, if a mastiff becomes a spirit, it is very ferocious and tyrannical, but it rarely sets foot in the world, let alone comes to the Central Plains, then it is most likely a sable spirit! ”
"Sable Essence?!" I was stunned and hurriedly asked, "Can a mink become a sperm?" ”
Master nodded and said, "Everything in heaven and earth has spirituality, as long as it meets by fate, it naturally has its fate, not to mention that the sable is also an animal, but there are many kinds of mink, and the sable is a very rare species." If you have all the opportunities, it's not that you can't cultivate into refinement, by the way, Ergou, even if you don't catch up with the sable essence, at least you should know which mountain it is heading towards, right? ”
"There are no hills." I immediately shook my head and said, "It's dark outside, and I can only vaguely see that it is fleeing towards the southeast, and there seems to be no mountains in the southeast, it is a plain area!" ”
Hearing my words, the old pig fairy suddenly ran to me, grabbed my arm, and asked urgently: "Ergou, can you see clearly?" Is it really heading southeast?! ”
I was taken aback by the old pig fairy's expression, but I still nodded heavily and said, "I can be sure that it is indeed heading towards the southeast." ”
"It's broken!" The old pig fairy sat down on the stool with his buttocks, and the master and I hurriedly stepped forward, but when we saw the old pig fairy, we shook our heads and sighed, and said, "It's broken...... To the southeast is Niutun, which is a very large village, and further south is Wufeng Town, which has a larger population, and the sable spirit goes to a place with a lot of people, and the common people will suffer......"
Master and I both had a big change in our faces, and it was really bad to hear the old pig fairy say this...... Niutun? It seems that the foolish uncle who fell while herding cattle on the hillside is a villager who lives in Niutun, but he didn't expect that their village would become a hiding place for the demonic sable spirit. I said anxiously, "So what are we waiting for?" Go find that demon now, and you must get rid of it! ”
The old pig fairy shook his head and said, "It's too late, that Niutun is one of the largest villages in this area, there are more than 100 families living in it, so many people, how to find it?" Besides, it's pitch black outside, even if you go to Niutun now, it's a waste of time, and if it is alarmed, it will be even more difficult to run directly to Wufeng Town. So we have to find the right time, the right opportunity, and at the same time find it, and then destroy it! ”
The master agreed with the old pig fairy's words, nodded, and said: "And we still have to be completely prepared, we can't let that demon have a second chance to escape, in fact, I used the magic talisman before, I already know that I can't get rid of it immediately, I can only force it out of the shell, although this has brought very serious consequences, but there is no other way, it can only be regarded as an expedient measure." Well, now that the demon has been severely injured by me with the power of the charm, it shouldn't hurt people for the time being, and most of them will find a place to hide and recover their vitality, but it is not excluded that it will use other methods to restore its vitality, such as ......"
"Like absorbing people's essence?" I hardly dare to think about it.
"Not bad!" The master frowned tightly and sighed lightly: "This is also the thing that the master is most worried about, alas, ......"
After speaking, the master walked slowly to the door with his hands behind his back, looked up at the bright moon that was gradually slanting westward, and did not look back for a long time. The old pig fairy glanced at the master's back, and also sighed and said: "Your master has always insisted on sacrificing the small self to achieve the big self, this time in order to save my beautiful wife, he obviously violated his principles, although he saved my beautiful wife, but let go of the demon, your master's kindness, I'm afraid I can't finish it in my life!" ”
I patted the old pig fairy on the shoulder and comforted: "You don't have to be sad, although the master has violated his own principles, he may also have his reasons, perhaps...... Maybe he still has a way to get rid of that demon! ”
The old pig fairy thought for a while and sighed: "Maybe, but if I cause those villagers to be in danger because of my beautiful wife, I'm afraid that after my beautiful wife wakes up, she will also blame me for being incompetent." I'm in a hurry, I don't have a master, if I usually encounter something, I may still be able to think of a way, but today...... Today I plunged into the tip of the horns, and I couldn't pull it out if I wanted to! ”
At this moment, the master turned around abruptly, staring at the old pig fairy with his eyes, and looked at the old pig fairy uncomfortably, the old pig fairy stood up tremblingly, scratched his forehead, and asked, "Senior Brother Yang, you, is there something wrong with you?" ”
Master smiled and said, "Take it out!" ”
"Take it out? Take out what?! The old pig fairy was stunned, and I was confused, so after a pause, the old pig fairy glanced left and right, then raised his hand to look at it again, and asked: "Senior Brother Yang, look at you, what is it that you just say no, it's over, I'm shocked, I still don't understand what you want?" ”
Master walked into the room slowly, sat down, and said casually, "Of course, it's a magic weapon for slaying demons and subduing demons!" You think I don't know your details, you used to like to collect all kinds of magic weapons when you were cultivating in the mountains, and now that you have been living in the folk life for so many years, there should be more inventory, right? You see that I have been using the peachwood sword, and I will replace it when it is broken, but I will not use it, why don't you lend me a magic weapon, and wait until I get rid of that demon, and then return it to you? ”
When the old pig fairy heard this, he suddenly patted his head with a sudden realization, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Senior Brother Yang is talking about this stubble, since you returned it to me afterwards, of course there is...... How many magic weapons can there be? However, Senior Brother Yang, didn't you have an evil sword before? That's the superior magic weapon of our Maoshan Sect Tantric Sect that has been passed down from generation to generation, and I said why didn't I see you have it in your hand? ”
The master waved his hand and said, "Don't mention the Cloth Evil Sword to me, that sword has been taken away by another apprentice of mine, I don't want to talk about this, but I do remember that when you were cultivating on the mountain, you used the natal Inner Dan to cultivate a very powerful magic weapon according to the cloth evil sword, what is it called the Nine Tricks Sword?" Why don't you lend me the Nine Tricks Sword and return it to you when I turn around, as if I won't return it to you if I use your things! ”
