Hearing this, I probably already understood: "This evil spirit possessed by me is a fox fairy, right?" ”

Cheng Shi smiled bitterly: "You are very smart." ”

"It's easy to think, otherwise why would you come here to scold the nine-tailed spirit fox. It's just that I don't understand one question, what is the relationship between the fox fairy who was possessed at that time and the nine-tailed spirit fox in front of him? I asked.

Cheng Shi looked at the mountains outside the temple and was silent for a moment, his expression was extremely painful, and he really didn't want to recall.

For a long time, he continued. After his son Cheng Hai fell into evil, he didn't care about his son for the first time, but was afraid that the chaos at that time would be laughed at by his peers and lose his face.

He and Jilin's Daxian'er, the two of them left with Cheng Hai, and after they arrived home, Cheng Hai's condition was already extremely serious. The two joined forces to restrain the evil spirit, but this evil spirit was extremely profound, and his cultivation was far above the two of them.

Cheng Hai was sinned by the old nose, and the symptoms were similar to the original little daughter-in-law, unconscious during the day, and began to toss at night, struggling and howling like a ghost. Cheng Shi tied his son with a rope in the firewood room in the backyard, and watched him suffer and couldn't do anything.

His wife, that is, Cheng Hai's mother, was heartbroken when she saw her son like this, and she washed her face with tears every day, scolding Cheng Shi for being a brute. Cheng Shi also defended it, saying that this is a kind of great compassion for Pudu sentient beings to serve the eagle with their bodies.

Hearing this, I sighed, this is actually an excuse for Cheng Shi to give himself a good face.

Cheng Shi's wife didn't bother to listen to these nonsense at all, crying every day for a son, or she would hit her head against the wall. Fortunately, Cheng Hai does have an extraordinary background, and his physique is different from ordinary people. In the painful torture, he was still able to maintain some sanity, and with the help of Cheng Shi, he actually tried to negotiate with the evil spirits in his body.

It was only then that they figured out that this evil spirit with an extraordinary origin was originally a descendant of the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox Family of Dagu Mountain.

Speaking of this nine-tailed spirit fox, it has a great origin.

Cheng Shi explained in detail, he said that in the Northeast, the general leader of the horse fairy is Hu Santaiye, who belongs to the Hu family, that is, the fox fairy. Mrs. Hu is quite awesome, he is the head of the immortals in Changbai Mountain, leading the Northeast Immortal Family, and setting up all kinds of heavenly rules, even the Jade Emperor has to give three points. But the Northeast is so big, there are many sects, and there are some scattered immortals in various regions, and the Tao is not under the third master Hu, and the nine-tailed spirit fox of Dagu Mountain is one of them.

This nine-tailed spirit fox was originally a mountain fox immortal who cultivated freely, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon, and cultivating into a human form. The nine-tailed spirit fox later entered the sect of interception, and with the inheritance, the Tao became higher and higher. It is said that the incense of this nine-tailed spirit fox has been passed down for hundreds of years in Dagu Mountain, and it was there in the Ming Dynasty to protect the safety of one party.

The evil spirit that is now possessed by Cheng Hai is the descendant of the nine-tailed spirit fox, not only has a high level of cultivation, but also has a family background, which is not comparable to ordinary scattered immortals.

Cheng Shi and Jilin's Daxian'er used various methods to communicate and negotiate with it, hoping that it would leave. But these scattered fairies and ghosts have very strange tempers, and they can't be conceived with human thoughts. How did they negotiate this fox immortal was just unwilling to leave, and a message came out that he would have to go through a lot of tribulations to cultivate his human form, so it was better to directly take Cheng Hai and continue to practice directly with his body.

Only then did Cheng Shi know how reckless his original decision was, it was easy for him to ask God to send God.

Late one night, Cheng Hai still had a shred of sanity, he was tortured and dying, and he told his father that he had made a decision.

Cheng Hai decided to cut off his meridians and end up with this fox fairy before he was taken away, and the jade was burned!

Cheng Shi cried silently, holding Cheng Hai's hand and not letting go, if there was no catastrophe this time, this child's future would be limitless. Cheng Hai saw it, he stroked his father's hair like an old man, and said to Cheng Shi, this is a fateful calamity, and there is a certain number in the dark, since you are here, don't be afraid.

He also told Cheng Shi something...... Speaking of this, Cheng Shi didn't continue, but looked at me thoughtfully.

I was looked at by him: "Teacher Cheng, what's wrong?" ”

Cheng Shi said: "Cheng Hai told me before he died that he was not an ordinary person, and that after death, the yin spirit would not disperse, and he would be attached to the photo." If he finds the right person, he will have the opportunity to continue walking the world. I asked him what the right person was, and he said he'd know when the time came. ”

My heart trembled: "Teacher Cheng, you mean, that person is me?" ”

Cheng Shi said: "You went to bed last night and saw the Yin God apparition in the photo, this is a signal released by my son, you have a relationship with him, otherwise he wouldn't let you see him at all." ”

My head was like paste, my heart was like a mess, and I said with a wry smile: "Teacher Cheng, I'm in trouble now, don't make fun of me." ”

Cheng Shi was unhappy: "Xiao Feng, I'm not joking with you. You are destined to move poles, and you are a person in the Tao. But now that your life is on the verge of death, you are weak and sickly, and you still have yin poison in your body, even if you want to invite my son, I will not agree. I'm going to see if you can survive this catastrophe. We cultivators pay attention to the three calamities and eight tribulations, each of which is the threshold of cultivation, and if we get through it, we will improve our realm, and if we can't get through it, we will never stop. You're in a big trouble right now. But don't worry, I'm here to help. ”

My heart is beating faster, it's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided, and it's useless to be afraid. I asked him what happened to Cheng Hai in the end.

Cheng Shi sighed: "My son Cheng Hai doesn't look young, but his knowledge and mind are much bigger than my father." He is truly an eagle in his own right. That night, he cut off his meridians and died with the fox fairy. ”

Speaking of this, his eyes turned red: "Let's not talk about the rest of the matter, my old wife is like crazy, she almost didn't skin me alive, she said that I was the murderer of my son, and even called the police." He waved his hand, falling into painful memories: "I lost my son and my wife, she divorced me and left, saying that she would never return to this home." ”

He wiped his eyes: "I heard about the incense dojo of the nine-tailed spirit fox in Dagu Mountain, so I came here, and the pain of losing a child was heartbreaking, and I didn't care so much, I pointed to the god and scolded." After scolding, he cried a lot and got drunk in the temple. ”

I sighed: "Teacher Cheng, let me interject, how can I think your sin is greater than that of the nine-tailed spirit fox in the whole thing." ”

Cheng Shi's eyes widened: "I admit that I was wrong, I have a good face, and I hurt my children for my own selfishness." But this stinky fox is not wrong, the cause of the whole thing is because it is not strict with his descendants. The son is not the fault of the father, the child is in trouble outside, and the first person to be held accountable is his father! He took a deep breath, touched his chest, calmed down, and continued: "The night I was in the Rotten Temple, I had a strange dream. ”

Cheng Shi said that he was drunk that day, and when he was asleep, a person came out of the apse. This is a young offspring, with a face as white as jade, dressed like an ancient, and a scarf on his head, he is really a beautiful young man. To put it mildly, you can't tell if this person is a man or a woman just by his appearance. Too delicate.

Standing in front of Cheng Shi, this descendant was very polite, and said, Cheng Jushi, I already know the whole thing, it's all my fault, I didn't strictly manage my children and grandchildren, and I have a lot of responsibility for causing unscrupulous children to come to the troubled times in the world.

Only then did Cheng Shi understand that this beautiful offspring was a nine-tailed spirit fox. He is a fragrant boy after all, and he has seen some of the world, so he wants to get up from the ground and return the salute. But for some reason, I couldn't move at that time, so I was nailed to the ground.

The nine-tailed spirit fox was extremely frank, and said to Cheng Shi that it had practiced for thousands of years, and had enjoyed incense here for hundreds of years. There is a good saying that if you don't advance or retreat, there is no end to cultivation, and if you are too comfortable, you will regress. Therefore, the nine-tailed spirit fox made a reluctant request.

Speaking of this, Cheng Shi smiled bitterly: "Xiao Feng, do you know what its request is?" ”

I shook my head, unable to think of it.

Cheng Shi said: "It wants me to come to the dojo every other day, pointing at my nose and scolding it." ”

I got goosebumps all over my body: "Why? ”

"The nine-tailed spirit fox is a very frank god, it told me, first, it should be scolded in this matter, and second, it hopes that someone will scold it, and it can often save my body three times, so as not to forget my roots." Cheng Shi said.

I breathed a long sigh of relief and looked back at the shrine in the depths of the main hall, where the nine-tailed spirit fox was like a silhouette in the dark, vaguely visible, a little forested.

Cheng Shi was quiet: "Since this incident, I have dispersed and never come out to watch things again." I just want to do my part to help those in need. I began to take care of those nerve heads and ease the burden on their families. I'm a lonely old man, that's all I can do......" He took a deep breath and said to me: "Xiao Feng, I brought you here, and I told you about my most painful past, do you know the intention?" ”

I thought for a moment and said, "You're telling me in disguise what the purpose of practice is. ”

Cheng Shi looked at me with a smile and was very pleased: "Except for my son, you are the most spiritual young man I have ever seen, and you can understand it at all." Then do you know what cultivation is? ”

I was at a loss: "It seems to know and it doesn't seem to know, it's hazy, I can't say it." ”

Cheng Shi nodded: "This is the opportunity for enlightenment, you come with me, I will let you see something." ”

He stood up and went straight to the apse, and I wondered in my heart, so I had to follow.
