I had to go out to fetch water and clean the blood from the cell, and when I was done, I realized that they had not given me a place to stay, and that no one had come until dark.

In desperation, I had no choice but to find a corner in the prison and lean down and listen to the snoring of the old drunkard for the night.

During this time, I kept wondering, who notified the Ling Kong Dao Leader, and how did he seem to know about this place in the first place? If you want to say that there is monitoring here, I don't believe it, let alone monitoring, this Wudang Mountain doesn't even have electricity, and the lighting is pine oil.

Thinking about it, I have a gut feeling that there is only one possibility, and that is the old drunkard in the corner!

Last time, I came to find the Qingniu Daoist, in order to heal the Miao Wu, but the result was that the Qingniu Daoist was not notified, and the next day the Qingniu Daoist went to Miao Village; It also made me baffled, I don't know who informed me.

I thought it was a coincidence, but now let's see, where is the coincidence. Nine times out of ten, it was notified by an old drunkard, and last time was the same as this time.

This makes me wonder how the old drunkard didn't leave, how did he notify the Qingniu Daoist and the head of the volley, is there any strange method?

Moreover, the three spies in the Ghost King Palace don't know the old drunkard's ability at all, let alone his strength, and he has always been an old drunkard who is a madman who drinks fake wine.

It's so weird!

It stands to reason that with such a strong strength, and being able to reach the head of the top floor of Wudang Mountain, what is he doing lying in this black and smelly prison? It can be seen that he has been here for a long time, and few people know his strength and identity.

After thinking about it for a long time, I didn't have a clue, I couldn't figure it out, and I didn't bother to think about it, so I fumbled around, found a dusty lantern in a corner of the prison, lit it and prepared to spend the night.

At nightfall, Lu Qi finally remembered that I was here, and brought me two bundles of straw, saying that I would have a cushion for sleeping, and a little dry food, and poured a gourd of wine for the old drunkard.

The corners of my mouth twitched, and I wanted to scold my mother, but I thought about it, it was better to have a straw cushion than to sleep on a cold bluestone slab, so I endured it.

Then, Lu Qi put down his things and opened the door to leave, after thinking about it, I immediately chased him out, pulled him to a farther position, and said with a smile: "What, Senior Brother Lu Qi, can I ask you something?" ”

"Yes." Lu Qi was quite easy-going, nodded with a smile, and said, "However, if it's a secret of this sect, I can't tell you." ”

"How can that be?" I hurriedly waved my hand and said, "That's it, the old man at the bottom of the prison, who is he?" ”

"You're talking about the old drunkard who drank fake wine?" Lu Qidao.

I hurriedly nodded yes.

Lu Qi scratched his head and said: "I don't know who he is, it seems that he was picked up by the head of the house from outside, and no one asked if he left it here. Because of the face of the head of the house, the deacons and elders were not easy to drive him, so they poured him a pot of fake wine every day to fend for himself. ”

I was speechless for a while, remembering the pungent smell of the wine, so I asked, "Is he really drinking fake wine?" ”

"No, you don't want good wine, you have to drink that kind of inferior industrial alcohol mixed with water, and you are not afraid of being poisoned." Lu Xiaoqi shook his head and said, "But then again, fake wine is cheap, just get a little money enough for him to drink for a year, otherwise the deacons and elders in the door would have blasted him out a long time ago." ”

The corners of my mouth twitched when I heard this, and my heart said that you have to know his strength, and you don't dare to bombard him if you are given ten dares.

"And how many years has he been in prison?" I asked again.

Lu Qi shook his head and touched his chin, and said, "It must have been seven or eight years, and I don't remember it clearly." ”

"Oh, that's okay, thank you, Senior Brother Lu Qi." I thanked him.

"Little meaning, just call me Seventh Brother." Lu Qi smiled and said, "Don't worry about the prison where the old drunkard sleeps, just clean the other places, I'll go back to sleep, and you can rest too." ”

I answered, sent Lu Qi a few steps, and returned to the cell.

I was used to nightlife, and I didn't have the habit of going to bed early, and I felt uncomfortable lying on the straw, so I simply took out a heavy knife and practiced it.

During this period of time, my strength did not stop after stepping up the first small step, and continued to advance towards the second small step, especially after witnessing the vicious battle between the Beastmaster and the Ghost King Palace, this progress even had a tendency to accelerate.

With a knife split, the four stable afterimages are already on a par with Gua Ge.

Not only me, but even Brother Gua and the fat man are the same, and the fat man is even close to the level of the quasi-big goal.

Although we were only watching that battle, it gave us a great feeling, and it was a very rare opportunity.

Especially the fluctuation of that kind of mana, it made me feel that I had faintly grasped something, although it was not clear, but it was of great benefit to the growth of strength.

I asked Miao Miao what is the difference between Qi energy and mana, and she said that Qi energy is an internal force of the human body, and mana is a kind of thing that is free between heaven and earth, which is very mysterious.

There is basically no comparison between the two, mana will make a person's strength soar sharply, the reason why Aunt Hong was able to stand up to various competitors at such a young age and become the head of the eastern Sichuan district is because she touched the edge of mana.

In a word, there are not many people in the Dao Sect who really possess such a thing as mana. If you can enter the hall, you can go to the two worlds of yin and yang.

Miao Wu has mana, so his strength is very strong.

I've seen the power of mana, and I'm very yearning for that thing, but unfortunately I don't have a clue at all, and it's too hard to say about chance.

In addition, Miao Miao also said that the stronger the Qi Neng, the more people can feel the mana, but there is no absolute, and some of the Qimen powers recorded in history even skipped the Qi Neng, and directly felt the mana, soaring into the sky.

Of course, there are too few such people, and it is as rare as being born with high numbers.

Qi energy belongs to the internal force of people, and there is a bottleneck in the restriction of the human body, and it is extremely difficult to grow to a certain extent and then want to improve. If you want to make a big breakthrough, you can only feel the vast mana.

This road is even more rugged, and it will eliminate ninety-nine percent of the people of Qimen.

Only those who have completely mastered mana are qualified to be called powerful, such as Qinglian Sword Immortal, Zhuge Kong Sheng, Peng Family Ancestor, and so on.

This old drunkard must be a character with mana, but if you feel the mystical thing of mana, you can feel it, and if you don't feel it, others can't teach it, so you can only rely on yourself, otherwise you can ask the old drunkard for advice.

The premise is that he pays attention to my words.

……

The time to practice the knife passed quickly, and I felt that half an hour had passed, but when I looked at the time, I found that it was almost midnight.

I stopped for some dry food and fell asleep on the straw.

The next day, I was awakened by a peculiar smell, and when I opened my eyes, I saw a bearded and unshaven head staring at me condescendingly, motionless, like a dead man.

"Oh my god!" I was so frightened that I almost lost my incontinence, and instinctively retreated, my head slammed against the wall, and my eyes suddenly appeared with gold stars.

When I looked closely, I found that it was the old drunkard who had gotten up at the right time, and was staring at me, and he opened the door of the cage.

"Former ...... Senior, you, what are you doing here? "My heart was racing and I was terrified.

"The demonic spirit has become stronger." The old drunkard stared at me and muttered.

"What?" My second monk was confused, and I didn't understand what he said.

The old drunkard's gaze slowly moved downward, moved to the position of my heart, and said, "There is a demonic spirit in you!" ”

"Demon ...... Demonic? ”

I was stunned for a moment, and suddenly recalled that the heart of the human face was given to me by Hong Qingsheng, and it seemed that it was originally from the human face and the body, but the question is, what does this thing have to do with demonic energy?

"Beast spirit" and ferocious spirit are almost the same.

No one has ever told me that this thing has a demonic spirit. No one even knew what demonic energy was, it was something on the same level as mana.

After a pause, the old drunkard suddenly asked a question that shocked me: "You are from Hongcun?" ”

I'm confused!

He actually told me where I was born.

"The demon heart actually found a personal master, which is a bit interesting." The old drunkard muttered again, his face was serious, and he was the same as before.

"What...... What a demon heart, this is the heart of a man! "I instinctively retorted, the human-faced slash belongs to a kind of shackle, and it is completely out of line with the demon, and it is almost the same as the heart of a beast.

Only things that incarnate into human bodies can be called demons! So far, I've only seen Bai Xiangyue once, and the body is still unknown.

No matter how powerful and magical it is, as long as it doesn't cultivate in the direction of the human body, it has nothing to do with demons. Moreover, it belongs to the ancient relics, and it is very powerful in itself, and there is no need to cultivate a human body at all, because its body is stronger than that of a human. The Beastmaster and the Beastmaster also belong to this category and are beasts.

"What the hell are you talking about?" I was inexplicable, he seemed to know the heart well.

What does it mean that the demon heart has found a master?

It was not only on me before, but it was nurtured in the human body by the descendants of the Hong family for generations, and it was not given to me until Hong Qingsheng, and it was forcibly exchanged with me, without my consent at all.

Can...... The old drunkard, however, seemed to lose interest, shook his head and got up and walked to the cage, closed the door, took a sip of wine, and lay down again.

I won't do it, I won't take you like this, and everyone will only talk halfway. I immediately rushed to the edge of the old drunkard's cage and said, "Senior, can you tell me more about this human sword...... Uh, demon heart? ”

The old drunkard didn't speak, and the snoring gradually began.

I amplified my voice, banged on the cage post, and kept asking questions.

The old drunkard turned over and said, "Immeasurable Tianzun is a demon heart, I can only say this, the karmic fire on your body is too heavy, and then you should burn the poor Dao." ”

Finally said a few decent words.

"Karma...... Karmic fire? ”

I was stunned, and the Night Wandering God also said the same, and there were even some swaggers, saying that the karmic fire caused by the cause and effect in my body was too heavy, and if I said too much, it would lead to fire.

It's the same reason why those guardians can't keep their mouths shut. But the question is, I've seen karmic fire in Volcanic Purgatory, why can't I see karma fire in myself?

Does it take someone with mana to see?

Speaking of which, it seems that Aunt Hong can also see a little, so she doesn't like to talk to me very much, is she afraid that she will accidentally say something that should not be said?

Not only them, but even those fortune tellers who touch the bones, touching me is like touching a ghost, and you can't hide from it.

The question is, where does the karmic fire in your body come from?

This is by no means brought out of hell, but as soon as it comes out of Hongcun. Even if I asked Bai Xiangyue some questions, she didn't answer either, so I didn't ask more.

Isn't it possible, the karmic fire of hell is not effective for me, and it is also because of the karmic fire in my body.

I was completely speechless, and when I thought about it, it seemed like I had a lot of things in place.

No wonder so many people, especially those with strong strength, don't like to talk to me very much, and if you talk too much, you will lose!

"Your uncle, what's the matter!"

I scolded, gave up, and reluctantly turned around and walked back.

By this time it was already dark.

"Bathe in the morning light more, and the purple qi will come from the east, which will be helpful to you." At this moment, the old drunkard suddenly said something faintly, which made me almost think that I was hallucinating.

I raised my eyebrows, is this a point?

Soaking up the morning light? Purple gas from the east?

This sentence reminds me of an ancient man, Lao Tzu.

Legend has it that Lao Tzu drove the ox through Hangu Pass to become an immortal, and there was purple gas in the east in the early morning, of course, that is also a legend.

Purple qi is actually the light of the morning glow in the sky when the morning light opens.
