Chapter 6: The Poor Taoist and the Demon Pill

Qingshui River, 30 miles away from Jiuqi Mountain, after crossing the river, it will arrive at the boundary of Jinzhou City, all those who go to Jinzhou City to do business and visit relatives, Qingshui River is the only way.

Zhang Laohan, who was ferrying, was very comfortable at this time, crossing a few undercurrents in the center of the river, and the boat could float to the other side with almost no effort.

There were all kinds of people on the boat, but what worried Zhang Laohan the most was a down-and-out young Taoist priest squatting in the corner.

The young Taoist priest's expression was very wooden, carrying a peachwood sword on his back, curled up in the corner in a regular manner, and eight patches were sewn on the front of the cyan robe alone, and the sword spike of the peachwood sword behind it had almost fallen.

Zhang Laohan secretly thought: When you get to the other side, you must be the first to collect his money, don't let this poor Taoist escape.

Thinking of this, Zhang Laohan couldn't help but secretly regret that he had set the rule of "disembarkation charges".

Suddenly!

"Whoosh!whoosh!"

Several iron hooks broke through the water and hooked tightly to the boat. Before people could react, several shirtless men had already jumped out of the water along the ropes, armed with sharp knives, and flipped into the boat!

Water Pirates!

Suddenly, the people on the boat exclaimed, their feet trembled, but at this time they were in the middle of the river, where was there a way to run?

At this time, I only heard the big man led by the water thieves shouting: "The uncles are all good men of the Blackfish Gang, they only rob money, don't kill people, take some silver taels out, and use them as your river crossing fee!"

The bright light of the knife flashed on the boat, and the men and women were already dumbfounded, like hens waiting to be slaughtered, fear was written on their faces, but they took root under their feet, and they couldn't take half a step.

For this situation, the leader of the heroes was very satisfied, and the water thieves under his command did not delay, and quickly scavenged for money!

"Stinky Taoist, take the money!" only to hear a water thief threaten.

"I ......" The down-and-out young Taoist priest didn't seem to dare to raise his head, but just looked up with a pair of eyes and muttered: "No money......"

The water thieves were furious, and they raised their swords to cut them down.

At this time, the leader's shout came from the side: "What oil and water does a stinky Taoist priest have! Waste less Lao Tzu's time, next!"

When the water thief heard this, he glared at the down-and-out Taoist priest viciously, turned around and continued to search.

The young Taoist priest shrank his head deeper, hugging his knees, visible in the shadows, his eyes were very uneasy, and even a little hesitant......

After such a knock on the mountain and the tiger, where did the other boat passengers dare to hide privately, eager to hand over their red pants to the water thieves, just to save their lives.

Soon, the water thieves made a lot of money, and they were the first to say "!"

Immediately, the pirates began to pack the ropes and prepare to enter the water.

The Taoist priest's eyes were even more hesitant!

The water thief jumped on the boat and was about to go into the water, when the Taoist priest suddenly said, "Wait!"

Not to mention the boat passengers, even the water thieves were stunned, could it be that this poor Taoist priest wanted to come forward?

The next moment!

The Taoist priest threw the wooden sword backwards, and the wooden sword splashed and floated on the water.

The Taoist priest walked with the sword, jumped up in the air, and with a light tap of his toes, he landed steadily on the peachwood sword floating on the water!

With a broken wooden sword, you can stand on the surface of the water, such light feats, I have only heard of them in the commentary!

The water thief at the head instantly showed fear, his face couldn't tell whether it was a drop of water or a drop of sweat, and the bone knot held by the sharp knife in his hand turned white.

The passengers on the boat were overjoyed, this Taoist priest turned out to be a man in the rivers and lakes, and he came to the rescue in an emergency!

"You ......" led by the water thief's voice trembled a little, but before he could finish speaking, it stopped abruptly.

I saw the Taoist priest take out a piece of silver from his arms, hand it forward, and frowned: "I still have five taels of silver here, and I thought of changing my Taoist clothes in Jinzhou, so I lied that I had no money." But this has already committed the two precepts of monasticism, lying and greed. The heavenly master is above, and the troublesome heroes accept it, don't blame it. ”

What the?

Both the boatmen and the pirates were stunned, as if they couldn't believe the strange scene in front of them.

"Please be sure to accept it!" the Taoist priest offered it with both hands, very sincerely.

"Good...... Good...... I'll take ......" The water thief finally mustered up his courage and reached out tremblingly to take it, for fear that the Taoist priest would suddenly cut off his arm with a wooden sword.

"That's a cheer!" the poor priest seemed relieved, turned over and jumped back into the cabin, and continued to squat there, no more silent.

The water thieves plunged into the water in an instant and fled.

After a long time, one of the wood-chicken-like boat passengers finally spoke, and said inwardly: "You...... Why did you let them go?"

Taoist priest Mu Ne said: "The purpose of my trip is to track down the demon beast at present, and then go to Jinzhou City to select people, the master said, one heart cannot be used for two purposes, and the arrest of water thieves is not in the plan......"

"That'...... What about our losses!" said another boat passenger angrily, and at this time the boat passengers had already blamed the Taoist priest for the reason for the robbery.

I saw that the Taoist priest reached into his arms and took out a hexagonal bronze medal, on which were engraved two gates, and the word "six" in the middle!

Daoist: "I am a one-minded Taoist priest of the Six Doors Imperial Demon Division, and someone will compensate for your losses!"

Six doors?

The crowd rejoined.

Dare to blame the six doors, that is, against the imperial court, coupled with the amazing light skills of the Taoist priest, the anger set off by the boat passengers was extinguished again, and the two people who came out quickly shrank back, for fear of being hated by the Taoist priest.

The boat docked, and the Taoist priest got off the boat and went away to continue chasing the demon.

Zhang Laohan muttered in shock: "Yixin Taoist priest...... It's really single-minded......"

......

In the blink of an eye, the sun sets.

Thirty miles away from Qingshui River, Jiuqi Mountain, Jiuqi Town.

At night, the fog is thick.

Tang Xian listened to the sound of the old man Lu grinding his teeth next door, and circulated the "Sea Classic" over and over again in his body.

Feeling the inexplicable power passing through every acupoint, bursting out with a strong and powerful feeling, as if the blood was hitting the waves in the body.

For "The Book of the Sea", except for the strange way of operation, Tang Xian still knows nothing.

You must know that in the rivers and lakes, cultivation is divided into nine grades, and each grade has two levels. The upper grade is the highest, and the lower ninth grade is the lowest, that is, just being able to cultivate the internal force, also known as the entry product, Wang Shan is at this stage.

There is a saying that there are nine grades and eighteen levels, as for the previous grade and then up, it is another more mysterious existence, and even in Old Man Lu's "Commenting on the World", there is no specific description.

However, although Tang Xian was practicing the exercises, he didn't know what realm he was in.

Because I can clearly distinguish that the force in my body is not an internal force at all!

"Hey......" Tang Xian sighed and complained secretly: There are thousands of cultivation methods in the world, whether it is the beast cultivation that introduces the demon pill into the body, the sword cultivation that cultivates the sword path, the Buddha cultivation, the Taoist cultivation, and even those who practice the secret arts, but all individuals, cultivation is inseparable from the support of internal force.

Aren't you human?

"Phew!" Tang snorted twice.

Although he is a little obscene on weekdays, he is definitely a man with good roots.

Although he was puzzled, Tang Xian did not reject the Haijing, so why not do it if he could have more life-saving skills?

Just when Tang Xian was puzzled, the window was pushed open with a "squeak", and the flat-headed brother jumped in and came in front of Tang Xian.

"Yo! I'm back!" Tang Xian was like a parent who was used to children, and he didn't dislike the soil on Brother Pingtou'er's body, so he stopped cultivating and hugged him into his arms.

"Roar ......" Brother Pingtou squeezed out a low roar from his throat and brought his mouth to Tang Xian's eyes.

Tang Xian looked at it, and the flat-headed brother had a pale cyan fruit in his mouth.

Smell it carefully, and the fruit still exudes an inexplicable fragrance.

Tang Xian was suddenly surprised, and said: "In recent days, the Wang family has given you meat and bones every day, and you have already raised your appetite tricky, but I didn't expect to come back from foraging outside, could it be that this fruit is better than meat and bones?"

Brother Pingtou seems to be responding to Tang Xian. Listening to the sound of "cluck", the fruit was bitten in half, and half of the mouth was swallowed directly by the flat-headed brother, letting out a comfortable low roar.

The other half of the fruit was pushed by the flat-headed brother to Tang Xian.

"You...... Do you want me to try it too?"

The flat-headed brother nodded excitedly.

"Uh......" Tang Xian hesitated.

You must know that the honey badger, a small beast, is naturally immune to poison, and even the most venomous snake often becomes a meal for the flat-headed brother.

It can be said that all poisons are inviolable, and everything can be an ingredient!

But Tang Xian is different, the flesh is mortal, in case this little fruit is poisonous......

Thinking of this, Tang Xian, who was sorry for his life, carefully pushed back half of the fruit.

The flat-headed guy pushed it back, with a few low growls.

Tang Xian was helpless and asked, "Where did you come from......

As soon as he was halfway through the words, he saw the flat-headed brother shoot out a claw like lightning, and half of the fruit flew directly into Tang Xian's throat.

"Your uncle!" Tang Xian was shocked, but he had already subconsciously swallowed the fruit in his throat.

Under Tang Xian's surprise, the fruit melted in his throat, exuding that faint fragrance, exhaling from Tang Xian's mouth and nose!

"You little brute...... Tang Xian scolded.

Tang Xian scolded, but the mutation has reappeared!

The fruit seemed to carry powerful energy, swallowed it for less than a moment, and a violent force suddenly burst out from Tang Xian's dantian, penetrating through the flesh without any obstacles, invading the meridians, instantly merging with the energy in the body, turning into a torrent, surging in the meridians.

The aftermath brought out by the powerful energy burst out around Tang Xian, blowing the window "creak".

What is that fruit?

Tang Xian was no longer in the mood to think, he only knew now that the fruit had instantly raised the energy in his body by at least three layers, and the sudden increase in cultivation in a short period of time made Tang Xian's belligerent feeling burst out like magma again!

This feeling is exactly the same as when I first practiced the Sea Sutra.

The surging energy in his body slowly subsided, but the unstoppable battle intent became stronger and stronger!

Tang Xian felt like he was confined underwater at this time, and only by venting this fighting intent in his body could he surface and breathe.

"Whew...... ...... "Tang Xian finally calmed down, panting, his eyes were slightly red, he glared at the flat-headed brother, and said, "Let's go! Find someone to fight!"

casually, he directly grabbed the flat-headed brother's neck and jumped out of the window with a whoosh!

In the excited roar of the flat-headed brother, he disappeared into the night in the direction of the Wang family.

......

Jiuqi Mountain West Forest.

The young Yixin Taoist priest stood in the forest, but he frowned.

In front of him, a demon beast white ape lay on the ground, dead. The demon pill was also taken away, leaving only a fist-sized hole in its chest.

However, the white ape was not killed by a single-minded Taoist.

The Yixin Daoist whispered, "Who killed this white ape? Could it be a passing beast cultivator?"

In the rivers and lakes, only the beast cultivators who attract the demon pill into the body need the demon pill to cultivate. Judging from the direction of the blood stains on the ground, this beast cultivator should have gone in the direction of Jiuqi Town.

"Although the white ape has begun to cultivate, the demon pill is not big, but it is a pity......" Yixin Taoist priest was a little regretful.

"Oops, greedy again......"

"Go to Jinzhou first, presumably Bai Yuxing is also about to arrive......"

In the forest, the fragmented thoughts of the Yixin Taoist priest gradually drifted away and went in the direction of Jinzhou City.
