There are a lot of Taoists in it, and it is estimated that there are one or two hundred, which should be the total number of people in the Qingcheng faction.

According to Shen Du's understanding, in fact, the number of people in other sects is not large, most of them are more than a hundred, two hundred people, only Chongyang Palace is a little more, about three or four hundred.

He estimated that in the entire land of China, there should be less than 10,000 people who really belong to the Tao, and most of these 10,000 people are relatively low-level cultivators.

After Shen Du walked in, Qing Xuzi, Qing Lingzi and Qing Yangzi estimated that they had already received the news and waited in front early.

The Tibetan Scripture Pavilion of the Qingcheng Sect is not a place for ordinary people, and there are many Taoist secrets of the Qingcheng Sect hidden in it, generally speaking, only the disciples of the Qingcheng Sect can enter.

Even if you go in, there are a lot of restrictions, for example, you can't bring out the cheats, you can only read them inside.

Low-level disciples can only enter the first floor, intermediate disciples can enter two or three layers, only inner disciples or true disciples, can enter the first five layers, as for the back five layers, they need to be elders or head levels to enter.

Shen Du came this time, and he could only enter the three floors below.

After the greetings, Qing Xuzi took out a red card and handed it to him, saying, "Since Shen Daoyou is here, then you can go over directly." There are elders guarding inside, and Shen Daoyou can only enter the lower three floors. ”

Shen Du was surprised for a moment and asked, "There are no other conditions?"

Qing Xuzi shook his head and smiled: "Originally, outsiders needed to go through three assessments to enter, but Shen Daoyou estimated that it had already reached it, so there was no need for this." Please!"

Shen Du nodded, followed him, and walked in one direction.

While walking, Qing Xuzi suddenly smiled again: "I wonder if Shen Daoyou has considered Poor Dao's proposal some time ago?"

Shen Du asked, "What kind of proposal did you make some time ago?"

"Sacred Word, Tao Te Ching!"

Qingxuzi looked at him and smiled: "Speaking of which, Poor Dao is a little greedy, I just hope that in my lifetime, I can really listen to it." It is rumored that the holy word contains the great mystery and great wisdom of the universe, and it is difficult for those who do not have wisdom roots and qualifications to comprehend it. Although the poor Dao said that the qualifications are good, but there is still a little distance from the top, over the years, the poor Dao has also been comprehending the holy words, but most of them are not clear. With the qualifications of the poor road, reaching the eighth grade should already be the limit. ”

Shen Du suddenly laughed: "There are eighty-one chapters of the Tao Te Ching, and I can read one chapter." ”

Qing Xuzi, Qing Lingzi and the others were stunned, and glanced at each other, Qing Xuzi turned his head to look at him suddenly: "Is what Shen Daoyou said true?"

Shen Du nodded and smiled: "The so-called courtesy exchanges, since Qingxu Daoist friends are so bold and set no conditions to open the Scripture Pavilion for me, then if I don't take something out, I can't say it." It's okay to read the first chapter. ”

Qing Xuzi glanced at him, rolled his eyes, and suddenly smiled again: "If the first five layers of the poor road are opened to you, will you read a few more chapters?"

Shen Du suddenly smiled and said: "Yes, the first five layers, read five chapters, and the courtesies are still exchanged." ”

Qing Xuzi couldn't help but get excited, and immediately smiled: "In this way, this matter is not negotiable. ”

Shen Du glanced at him and said with a smile: "The Tao Te Ching is a holy word, I think with the strength of the Qingxu Daoist, it is okay to listen to the first five chapters, as for the later ones, it is better not to listen to them." The holy word is a great creation, and if you don't cultivate enough, if you listen to it too much, I'm afraid there will be problems. ”

Qing Xuzi was stunned when he heard this, and said with a smile: "This is also true!"

The two were chatting, and they had already come to the Qingcheng Sect's Library Pavilion, and in the Library, there were elders from the Qingcheng Sect guarding it, but this time Qing Xuzi brought him over directly, so he only needed to say hello and go in.

After entering the library cabinet, I found that there were a lot of books inside, similar to a library, and there were tens of thousands of books on the first floor alone.

Qing Xuzi saw that there were some doubts on his face, so he explained: "Here, there are the research experiences and perceptions of the masters of my Qingcheng faction, the first layer is just ordinary scriptures, the second layer and the third layer have some Taoism, the books in the library pavilion, the higher the number, the smaller the number, the first layer is the largest. ”

Shen Du casually took out a book and took a look at it, and found that it was indeed just some ordinary scriptures, which did not have much effect on him.

"This time, Shen Daoyou can stay in the library for seven days, and during these seven days, someone will bring Shen Daoyou some food and refreshments. If Shen Daoyou has the heart to study, he can study it carefully!" Qing Xuzi said.

Shen Du nodded.

After Qingxuzi explained a few words of caution to him, he saw that he had taken out a book and looked at it seriously, his expression was slightly surprised, but he didn't continue to disturb him, and walked out with Qing Lingzi and the others.

"Open the first five floors and read five chapters, what does the junior sister think?" After leaving the library pavilion, Qing Xuzi suddenly asked Qing Lingzi.

Qing Lingzi frowned: "There are eighty-one chapters in the Tao Te Ching, and there are only five chapters, which is too few." If you read them all, I think you can consider it. ”

Qing Xuzi stroked his beard and said, "The Holy Word may indeed be extraordinary, and the strength of you and me, I'm afraid that you may not be able to listen to Chapter 81." It is rumored that above the earth immortals, there are realms, and the holy words behind are probably for the service of these realms. ”

Qing Lingzi thought for a while and said, "You can discuss it with the other elders, if the other elders agree, I have no opinion." In the land of China, our Qingcheng faction is still weak, if the disciples can really listen to it, it may be beneficial to their cultivation. ”

"That's it!" Qingxuzi nodded.

The two of them walked outside, but just after taking a few steps, a loud voice suddenly appeared out of thin air and appeared in the ears of everyone in the Qingcheng faction.

"Lu Jin, the Nanyang Heavenly Holy Gate, came to visit Qingxu Daoyou, the head of Qingcheng. Please also open the door to welcome you!"

Qing Xuzi and Qing Lingzi were stunned for a moment, and their faces suddenly changed greatly.

The huge sound seemed to be pressing on the heads of the Qingcheng faction, and the thunder rolled, making them feel like they were going to suffocate.

Nanyang Tiansheng Gate?

Head Lowering!

How did they get here?

For the Nanyang head lowering technique, Qing Xuzi and Qing Lingzi have naturally heard of it, and they also know that there are many head lowering masters in Nanyang.

Head-lowering is also known as witchcraft, and is divided into three types: "medicine drop", "flying drop", and "ghost dropping".

The medicine drop is very similar to the Miao Jiang Gu technique, that is, refining the medicine to let the other party eat it, and the purpose of controlling the other party has been achieved.

The Miao girls in the Miao Xinjiang area put the snake, centipede, poisonous spider, green scorpion, and toad, the five most poisonous Gu species, into a jar, and let them attack each other, bite and kill each other in it, and wait until they all die in the end, and after erosion and drying, they are developed into powder, which is the so-called "Gu poison".

Placing Gu poison on the person who wants to harm can cause people to go insane, crazy, or suffer unbearable physical pain, to the point of death.

And flying down is a kind of spell that is more advanced than "medicine dropping".

The flying head in the flight is extremely vicious and evil, and it is rumored that the wizard who can do this kind of witchcraft is usually no different from ordinary people, only when the night comes, the head of the head descender is separated from the body, flying around, looking for the fetus and the blood of others to suck.

Legend has it that the fetus is coagulated by the essence and blood of yin and yang, and the more it is sucked, the more it can not only prolong its life, but also the more powerful it will be.

And the ghost descending is precisely the most evil one of the Nanyang head lowering techniques.

There are people in Nanyang who are good at raising little ghosts, mastering the method of serving ghosts, chanting a spell at will, so that the ghost is attached to it, and then thrown to the enemy's frequent entry and exit or home so that the enemy can come into contact, and the ghost will take advantage of the weakness to enter the enemy's body, making the enemy go crazy and die.

And Lu Jin of the Nanyang Heavenly Holy Gate, Qing Xuzi has also heard that the Nanyang Heavenly Holy Gate is one of the four major sects of the Nanyang, and Lu Jin is rumored to be the Nanyang Heavenly Holy Wizard, the elder of the Heavenly Holy Gate, with extraordinary talent, just proficient in the art of ghost descent, and his strength is extremely terrifying.

In fact, in recent decades, it has been rumored that the Nanyang head lowering technique has the appearance of a boom, and countless geniuses have emerged.

Some time ago, Chongyang Ye Qianjue went to Nanyang to challenge the Nanyang wizard, but was injured by a young wizard and returned.

Someone in Daomen once rumored that Nanyang wizards were full of talents, and they were already ready to move, and there were signs of entering the land of China, but no one took it seriously at that time, but they didn't expect that at this time, a heavenly saint wizard really appeared.

Qingxuzi's face was solemn, and he hurriedly walked towards the door.

I saw that in the square outside, there were already many Qingcheng sect disciples, eyeing each other, and three middle-aged people in robes appeared in front of the disciples like ghosts, suddenly showing their teeth and smiling gloomily, stretching out their hands, and a black mist appeared out of thin air.

"Not good!" Qing Xuzi's face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly rushed forward.

But after all, he took a step slower, and saw that there seemed to be countless fierce ghosts laughing in the black mist, and pounced on all the Qingcheng Sect disciples, and in just an instant, more than a dozen Qingcheng Sect disciples fell to the ground, their eyes were blank, their bodies were twitching, their mouths were foaming, and they almost died.

Qing Xuzi hurriedly stretched out his hand and waved, and a blue light immediately shrouded several disciples.

Seeing this, Qing Lingzi next to him immediately stared coldly at the three middle-aged people in front of him and said, "Who is Lu Jin?"

"Hey, I am!"

A middle-aged man about forty years old stood up and said with a smile: "You are Qingxuzi? Could it be that the Qingcheng faction of Nuoda is just a woman to be the head of the sect?

Qing Lingzi didn't answer, but said coldly: "You are Lu Jin, the Heavenly Saint Wizard, and you are too vicious to attack an ordinary disciple. ”

Lu Jin smiled and said, "Ordinary disciples, no, no, Qingxu Daoist, what this wizard sees is just a swarm of ants. Since he is an ant, he has not yet known himself, and he dares to come over to be a wizard without authorization, so he is so ignorant, what does it matter if he is pressed to death? I heard that your Qingcheng faction has a Qingcheng Sword Immortal, and this wizard specially came to the door today to receive the teaching, and the head of Qingxu is invited!"

Qing Xuzi and Qing Lingzi frowned.

Qing Xuzi immediately withdrew the Qingguang, turned back to the other disciples and said, "Take them down, feed them three bowls of black dog blood, and recite the Tao Te Ching." ”

"Yes, sir!"

The black dog's blood can break the head reduction technique, and the Tao Te Ching in the Taoist Gate can also break the head reduction technique, in addition, the Heart Sutra of the Buddha Gate, the Buddha card of the Buddha Gate, and the Daomen rune can also break the head reduction technique.

At this time, Qing Xuzi suddenly saw something, turned his head to look at Jiang Chuyao who was standing next to him, and was slightly stunned, the latter had just been hit by Lu Jin's head lowering technique, but it seemed to be fine.
