Chapter XXXIII: The General's Tomb

"The Five Great Immortals are the most spiritually rooted species among animals, and all living beings in the world envy the primate of all things - humans! It is said that animals begin to imitate the words and deeds of human beings after a hundred years of spiritual cultivation, and then they will look for people who are destined to ask if they look like people, and if they speak to them like them, they will be blessed by the words of the other party, and they will inevitably be able to transform into human form with logistics and practice. Tianyou explained.

Mu Xingchen nodded and said, "No wonder Huang Tianba thanked you, you are helping his descendants transform into human form!" What if someone who is destined to say that it is not like it? ”

"It is said that it will have to practice for another hundred years and find someone else who is destined!" Tianyou said.

"Amitabha, the Buddha said that all living beings in the world are equal, but what a coincidence of providence makes people!" Qijie said with a sigh.

Mu Xingchen asked curiously, "Since they are immortal families, why do they still live in the mortal world?" ”

"They are not real immortals, there are five types of immortals, heaven, earth, people, gods and ghosts, their Taoism is similar to that of human immortals, only by surviving the catastrophe, can they be regarded as earth immortals. The reason why they are called immortals is because they have practiced in the mortal world, accumulated merits, and helped the people a lot, and people are just respectful of them! Tianyou shook his head and said.

Seeing that the sky was already slightly bright, the three of them returned to the Li Mansion, and as soon as they entered the mansion, Nalan Bingruo ran out and said to the three of them: "That cat demon actually came last night!" But it was too cunning and treacherous to break into the trap, and when I waited for it to break into the Li Mansion, it disappeared. ”

"This cat demon is so bold, he knows that we live in this mansion, and he dares to come here to investigate!" Qijie said admiringly.

"That's not all, there is a family in the town who didn't listen to the yamen's warning, and didn't put the town house charm on the door, just now I heard that all four members of the family died, it should be killed by the cat demon!" Nalan Bingruo said fiercely.

Hearing this, the seven precepts hurriedly recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha! Great monk, I must cross this demon! ”

Xiao Hei fluttered his wings and said, "If it weren't for my old man's injury being too serious, this little cat demon would have swallowed it in one bite!" ”

As soon as Xiao Hei spoke, Mu Xingchen was so frightened that he almost fell off the chair, and said with a little stammering: "This crow can talk?" ”

"What's all the fuss? That Huang Tianba can transform into a human form, why can't I spit out human words? Xiao Hei flew to Mu Xingchen's shoulder and said.

Looking at Mu Xingchen's stunned expression, Tianyou asked suspiciously: "Xiao Hei, in fact, I also have a question, I don't know whether to ask or not." ”

"I know what you're trying to ask." Xiao Hei said nonchalantly.

"You know?" Tianyou said in surprise.

Xiao Hei changed his usual joking tone and said, "You must be trying to ask me why I haven't been able to transform into a human body after thousands of years of cultivation, right?" ”

Tianyou didn't speak, but nodded to indicate that Xiao Hei was right.

"All strange birds and beasts are born with extraordinary abilities, but there are also some limitations, such as it is more difficult to practice than ordinary birds and beasts, I think it is impossible to transform into a human form without a great chance, and there is a chance of a heavenly tribulation, if I can't break through, I will disappear completely! Forget it, let's not talk about this sad topic, it's boring to live for a long time anyway! Xiao Hei looked out the window and said.

Nalan Bingruo hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "What should I do next?" ”

"Since the mass grave and the Huangpizi Forest are not the hiding places of the cat demon, then it must be hidden in the general's tomb! This time, we will lay a net of heaven and earth, and we will definitely get rid of it! Tianyou said in a deep voice.

After a few people meditated and rested, they went to the general's tomb before dark, and the cat demon could not come out to act during the day because it was borrowed to return the soul, so it was necessary to lay a formation around the general's tomb before it was dark and kill him.

Nalan Bingruo and Xiao Hei also went together, and after arriving at the general's tomb, everyone was a little disappointed, thinking that the general's tomb had to be a magnificent cemetery, but it turned out to be a small hill, and there was not even a tombstone.

"Brother Tian, can it be here? Isn't it just an ordinary dirt bag? Mu Xingchen asked suspiciously.

After Tianyou took out the feng shui compass, he frowned tightly and said suspiciously: "This place is a place where yin and evil gather, and there are indeed yin and evil things underground, but"

"But what?" Qijie hurriedly asked.

"But the feng shui compass shows that the evil qi here is very powerful, and that cat demon doesn't have such a big ability!" Tianyou said.

Qijie didn't care: "This evil spirit is not necessarily emitted by the cat demon itself, or the cat demon has sucked the essence of many people in the past few days, and his Taoism has improved!" By the way, there is still a possibility that there will be a fight that night, and it hides its strength! No matter how many of them, in short, God blocks and kills God and Buddha, gets rid of it, and avenges those who died innocently and tragically! ”

After listening to the words of Qijie, the rest of the people smiled helplessly, where did they come up with what the family should say, after contact, they also knew the temperament of Qijie, so it was not surprising.

Tianyou and Nalan Bingruo took out the magic weapon, and began to arrange the Tianluo Net Array around the general's tomb, Qijie and Mu Xingchen had nothing to do, so the two found a leeward place to drink.

"Resolute cultivation of truth, diligent work, all fates are empty. Too void in the Ding, silently raise and rush. A spirit bead is brilliant, as bright as the moon shining on a thousand peaks. On the Changjing Yuntai, the sesame grass spits fragrant wind. These subtle principles are met thousands of miles by fate. Dust is not clean, and purity is the real work. The head of daily use is not ambiguous, and it is difficult to cage in the realm of transcendence and destruction. You can still be at ease here, and there is Asgard everywhere! "Tianyou and Nalan Bingruo had just finished arranging the circle when they heard someone chanting poetry in the forest near the general's tomb.

Then out of the woods came a sloppy old beggar, who looked to be about seventy years old, unkempt, disheveled, with long gray hair, and hobbled with a hunched body. No one could have imagined that the poem was actually recited by him!

"Who is this uncle drinking and having fun here? The smell of wine wafted to the old beggar's nose! The old beggar squinted his eyes, sniffed with his nose and said, and then walked straight to the place where Mu Xingchen and Qijie were drinking.

"Get out of the way, don't disturb the official's Yaxing!" Mu Xingchen shouted with a look of disgust.

The old beggar smiled, didn't care, and then said: "It turned out to be an official, the old beggar, I have eaten hundreds of meals and drunk thousands of wines all my life, and ordinary people are afraid of officials, but I am not afraid!" Hey, grab me in, I just have something to eat! ”

"You!" Mu Xingchen was about to say something, but was stopped by Qijie.

Qijie threw the wine gourd in his hand to the old beggar and said, "Amitabha, the old man wants to drink, and if you drink mine, you won't be able to pick people up!" ”

At this time, Tianyou and Nalan Bingruo happened to come over, because Tianyou had followed others to beg since he was a child, and he had a sense of affection for the old beggar in front of him, so he bowed down and said: "Old man, it's not peaceful here, after you finish drinking in a while, leave quickly." ”

The old beggar took the wine gourd and drank wildly, deaf to Tianyou's advice, Tianyou had to say it again, the old beggar glared at Tianyou, and said angrily: "Old beggar, I can stay where I want, what do you have to do with it?" ”
