Chapter Twenty-Six: The True Devil
The cave was full of green mist, like a dragon and a tiger, and I breathed fire at a big ding, which looked strange and shocking, so the people who found the entrance to the cave immediately withdrew after a glance, shouting excitedly.
Everyone gathered here, and one by one they came in to see, they were all surprised, then surprised, and then excited, with a greedy look on their faces, without exception, where is there a little bit of sanctimony that a decent man and gentleman should have? Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've seen pig meat, and the vision of the days plus the wonders in front of you, even a fool knows that the pill refined in Ding Nei is not trivial, who can not be moved? But after all, you are a decent person, please don't be so direct, at least pretend to be a little righteous and awe-inspiring!
The entrance of the cave was crowded, but no one rushed over to kill me, and soon Lu Chengshan and the six masters also arrived, and everyone came in separately. A master is a master, and the reaction is different from others, they don't have too many surprised expressions on their faces, more of a comprehension, but the greed and fanaticism in their eyes are even more than others!
The reaction of these people was much more than I expected, but it is normal to put yourself in their shoes and think for them. These people have a relatively deep cultivation, and when they reach this level, they should all look at the wealth, power, glory, and wealth relatively lightly, and they are still working hard to cultivate, just to become immortals and live forever. But now that all kinds of immortal cultivation methods have been lost, resources are extremely scarce, and it is difficult to cultivate immortals in the blue sky, an elixir that may make them immortals has reached an unparalleled level, which is enough to make them crazy, which is incomprehensible to ordinary people.
No one scolded me, let alone attacked me, everyone just watched me breathe fire alchemy so quietly, their eyes flashed and their expressions changed, and they had their own ideas, as if I was acting for them.
After spraying the fire, I stood up and clapped my hands: "You came a few days early, and you haven't finished refining yet, go back to eat and drink enough to nourish your spirits, and come back in a few days." ”
"Presumptuous!" There was an old Taoist who shouted angrily, "You are willing to fall, you are in collusion with evil demon girls, robbery and murder, and the crime is extremely heinous, and now in the face of many predecessors, you dare to be so arrogant!" ”
I smiled and said, "I'm not a Taoist priest, I can't fight with you eight poles, who is my senior?" As for the robbery, it is a bigger misunderstanding, others don't know, Lu Lao, you know best, the treasure map was given to you by me, and the treasure found is mine, why should I kill people and seize the treasure? Is there a reason to grab your own things? ”
Everyone looked at Lu Chengshan, and Lu Chengshan's face was very ugly: "At this time, you are still talking nonsense, where is there a treasure map!" ”
I still smiled calmly: "How do you know the location of the treasure without a treasure map?" And it just so happened that I kept a copy of the treasure map, and the night I gave it to you, I had already recorded it. I didn't ask you to write a receipt, so important things were handed over to you, how could I not record it? ”
Lu Chengshan's face turned the color of pig liver, since I was ready to calculate him, it was completely possible to secretly record at that time, and I was very calm and calm, he had to believe it. It took two seconds for Lu Chengshan to react, and shouted angrily: "Okay, you sinister and despicable person, it turned out that it was all a trap arranged by you, and you deliberately came to frame me, you, you...... You are simply hopeless! ”
Everyone shouted angrily: "Don't talk nonsense with him, take him down!" "Kill this thief who does all kinds of evil!"
I shook my head and sighed: "It's easy to kill me, it's just a pity that this furnace of golden pills is only a few days away, do any of you know how to refine it?" If anyone knows, I'll pass it on to him. ”
The angry crowd immediately quieted down and looked at each other, in fact, what they were concerned about now was not the murder and treasure snatching incident, but the ownership of the elixir in the furnace. In the end, no one dared to say that they knew how to practice, so no one dared to kill me.
I paced a few steps slowly: "You listen to me make it clear, here's the thing, Lu Chengshan beat the innocent me into a vegetative person in order to kill the demon, it's not a secret, right?" Fortunately, my master saved me, but the longevity has been greatly shortened, Lu Chengshan pretended to help me inquire about the whereabouts of the eight jade talismans, and compensated for his mistakes for my life, but in fact he was just using me, and he would snatch it from me after I found it. In order to prevent me from uniting the eight pieces, he secretly tried to get the seventh piece in his hands first, but unfortunately this incident caused me to bump into it, so I took the jade talisman and the treasure away. I didn't kill the two people, the jade talisman was said to be mine, the treasure was buried by my wife's ancestors, and the treasure map was also handed over to Lu Chengshan by me, this is the truth. ”
Everyone looked at Lu Chengshan, and Lu Chengshan squinted his eyes: "The jade talisman is something from your Yin and Yang family, it's useless for me to take it, I even gave you a piece in my hand, how could I want to take it from your hand?" Xiao Zhang, you really misunderstood me, I'm afraid that I also misunderstood you, I must find out about this matter, but you can't leave until you find out. ”
Everyone is a smart person, and in fact, what this means is that no one will kill me before the elixir is refined.
A Taoist priest couldn't help but ask, "Zhang Xuanming, may I ask what kind of Dan you are refining?" ”
"Nine turns to return to Dan."
"It turned out to be the ninth turn to return to Dan!" Everyone exclaimed, they all knew this name, and an old Taoist said: "According to the record of the Jindan chapter in the inner chapter of "Hug Puzi", you can become an immortal after taking nine turns and returning Dan for three days!" ”
There was a sound of swallowing saliva, and the Taoist priest before asked again: "May I ask how many grains you can refine in this furnace?" ”
I forced a smile and said seriously: "This depends on luck, if you are lucky, you may become dozens of pills, and if you are lucky, you may almost become one or two pills, if you make a small mistake, you may even lose the grains." ”
Everyone nodded again and again, if I wasn't still a suspect now, I was afraid that someone would go out of the sect and kneel down to worship me as a teacher, I would be a super idol international superstar now.
Lu Chengshan saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he persuaded and pushed everyone out.
Xiaoxue appeared and kept shaking her head: "How did it become like this, I really didn't expect it!" ”
I laughed and said, "It's also reasonable, now I believe that force is not the best way to solve problems." ”
"You seem to have a chance to win, huh?"
"No, one step at a time."
As I spoke, I suddenly felt the yin qi outside, and the impact of yin and yang qi produced a slight explosion effect, the wind burst out, the sand and rocks were flying, the grass and trees were lodging, and the auspicious clouds and rui qi gathered on the top of the mountain were also blown away.
The Taoist priests who had just walked out of the cave exclaimed: "Not good! "It's demonic energy!"
I closed my eyes, and the Yuan Shen came out of the cave, only to see that it was not very high from the top of the mountain, and the void seemed to have opened an eye, and a cloud of black gas poured out, and the cold and dark aura quickly spread and enveloped a large area. Out of the black aura came a young man dressed in Taoist costumes, his face was like a crown of jade, his eyes were like a star, and his clothes were flying to the extreme, if it weren't for a dark aura on his body, I would definitely treat him as a living immortal.
The young Taoist priest stepped down, and with each step, black qi immediately gathered under his feet, and he walked down step by step like a staircase, as if he was slow and fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had arrived in front of everyone outside the cave.
Lu Chengshan and the others were shocked and asked, "Who is coming?" ”
The young man said: "The poor road used to be called Cuihuzi, and the immortal cultivation did not enter the demon road, but now I heard that there is an elixir here, so I came to ask for it, and I retreated as soon as possible." ”
"Cuihuzi?" Everyone looked at each other and tried to remember, but no one had an impression. Seeing that Cuihuzi's appearance was amazing, and the cultivation was to an incredible extent, they didn't dare to move, but they were unwilling to let go like this, and they clearly came to grab the elixir.
Lu Chengshan shouted: "This person is an evil demon, you don't have to talk to him about morality, kill him together!" ”
Cui Huzi laughed: "Yes, I am indeed a demon." Your greed is blazing, you are already my kind, it is better to worship my teacher, the future is limitless! ”
The most disgusting thing for the Taoist priests is that others say that they are unorthodox, and now they are said to be the same kind by a person who claims to be a demon, which is more embarrassing than slapping them, plus he is unwilling to snatch the elixir away by him, the crowd is excited, and everyone is united, Lu Chengshan shouted: "Kill!" Everyone attacked, some used magic tricks to hit, some used magic weapons to smash, some took out Dao talismans and chanted spells, and some directly took weapons and rushed up to cut them, everyone who came today was fully prepared for battle, and they were very powerful.
Cuihuzi disappeared in the stormy attack, but a cloud of black qi rushed between everyone, and all the Taoist priests screamed one after another, some rolled out and trembled on the ground, some turned their eyes straight to attack their own people, and some simply stabbed the sword in their hands into their chests.
Lu Chengshan and a few other Taoist priests with higher cultivation would be relatively better, but they were already frightened and fled in all directions, only hating their father and mother for having two legs. In less than a minute, thirty or forty people lay on the ground, dead and wounded, unconscious, and less than ten escaped.
I was taken aback, and hurriedly ran out of the cave to guard, although I knew that I was definitely not the opponent of this Cuihuzi, but I couldn't let him break in and take the pill.
The black qi gathered, and the jade tree appeared like a green lake in the wind, and looked at me with a smile: "You refined the elixir?" Yes, yes, but I seem to be here early, and the heat is still a little short. ”
I arched my hand: "I am using this elixir to save people, can my predecessors raise their noble hands?" ”
"Haha, I don't think you're an immortal, it's better to follow me into the devil's way, if you worship me as a teacher, you are my apprentice, of course I can't rob my apprentice's things."
Is this guy crazy if he wants to take in apprentices, he wants to take apprentices when he sees people. I asked, "What is the Devil's Way?" ”
Cuihuzi said: "Immortals and demons are under the jurisdiction of the Yuan Shi Tianzun, the immortals have the fairy world, and the fairy world has five emperors of the five directions, leading the blessing and edification of the immortals; The demons have the demon realm, and there are also five demon emperors in my demon realm, who are responsible for guarding and punishing. Immortals and demons are juxtaposed, just as day and night, the sky has the sun and the moon, the qi divides yin and yang, and the Tao divides immortals and demons, each with its own usefulness, and one is indispensable. Of course, in addition to the good demons, there are also many wild demons, evil demons, and demons, all of which are things that do not enter the stream. ”
I had never heard such a statement before, and I was quite surprised, Cuihuzi said: "There are many stinky rules in the fairy world, false benevolence and false righteousness, where is there a demon world that acts recklessly, free and happy?" Now that people have evil thoughts and decadent fairy paths, it is time for my demon world to prosper, and I have a lot to do with you! ”
"What if I say no?"
"Then you can only kill first and then rob." Cuihuzi is not ambiguous at all.
