Early in the morning, a villager came to invite Zhang Yuan to breakfast, and Zhang Yuan opened the door and came out to find a young man standing by the door, looking very shrewd, looking at him with a look of adoration on his face.

Zhang Yuan smiled slightly and asked, "What's your name?"

"The village calls me Ergouzi, and the Taoist chief went early in the morning to help the villagers who died last night choose a place to be buried. Ergouzi said that the dead villagers' voices were obviously low.

Zhang Yuan's heart moved, and he stopped and asked, "How many villagers died last night." ”

"More than a dozen families at the entrance of the village died, 37 people, and more than 10 people were injured. Saying this, the eyes of the two dogs were red.

"Is the injury serious?" Zhang Yuan couldn't help but complain a little that he was too slow to act yesterday, and blamed himself for forgetting that there were still injured villagers and went to rest.

"The injured people are fine, you don't know, how powerful the Dao Chief was last night, the donkey's belly was pierced by the wild bi, and he couldn't survive, as soon as the Dao Chang made a move, the person was fine, and...."The second dog said this, but his eyebrows flew and danced.

Zhang Yuan thought that this Taoist priest who walked the rivers and lakes was really a bit of a barefoot doctor, so he didn't go to breakfast, and said to the second dog: "You take me to find the wooden Taoist chief." ”

"Alas, okay, big brother, you go this way. Ergouzi hurriedly arrived, and called a villager to get a few white-flour steamed buns halfway.

The cemetery of the village is on the hillside not far behind the village, from the ancestral hall to the cemetery to pass through the village, I saw that the people in the village were happy to clean up the dead wild boys, and saw the two dogs leading Zhang Yuan over, and the villagers put down their work to greet him.

Zhang Yuan looked at the wild birds all over the ground, although he knew that he had killed a lot last night, but he didn't expect it to look so shocking during the day, and turned his head and asked with some curiosity: "How many wild birds are there?"

"There are three hundred and thirty-seven heads in total, big brother, you are too powerful, many of those wild boys have been blown up by you. Zhang Yuan can see the stars in the eyes of the second dog.

Zhang Yuan greeted the villagers as he walked forward, and took the time to ask Ergouzi: "Then what do you do with these wild dogs, this summer is coming soon, and the meat will stink." ”

Ergouzi said excitedly: "This Taoist chief discussed with the village chief yesterday, and today I pickled all these wild babes, and then distributed them to the villagers, so many wild babes, enough for us to eat slowly for a year, the Taoist chief also said, the king of the beast is skinned by you, and the dead villagers are sacrificed together." ”

Zhang Yuan nodded secretly, Mu Lingzi's arrangement was indeed good, and it is estimated that these villagers were fooled a lot last night.

When I arrived at the cemetery, many villagers were digging pits, and I didn't see where Mu Lingzi was, Zhang Yuan stood on the small hillside and looked, and found that although the mountain behind was not steep, the mountain was undulating, like a dragon surrounding, echoing with a winding river in the distance.

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but sigh: "What a treasure land for pillowing mountains and kicking rivers." ”

The applause of "pop pop" came from behind, and Zhang Yuan looked back to see that Mu Lingzi had come out of nowhere, and applauded behind him when he heard his words.

"Zhang Yuan, since you are proficient in feng shui, why don't you believe in my physiognomy?" asked Mu Lingzi curiously.

Zhang Yuan smiled slightly and did not answer, as a young man who grew up in the new era, he really wouldn't believe in these superstitions, but he studied archaeology, and met a good teacher, these things are exposed to his ears and eyes, and he will order them to some extent, but he is never proficient.

"Are the villagers buried? ”

"Soon, this is a treasure land, buried here can naturally bless future generations to turn evil into good fortune, and this place will be bigger than the future in the future. Mu Lingzi saw that he didn't answer his words, so he pulled the words back.

Zhang Yuan saw Mu Lingzi pull the words back, and he also had a discussion in his heart, and said: "No one can say what will happen in the future, if you can really bless future generations, why are you here today?" asked the back of the tone was very stern, and he even thought about whether Mu Lingzi was making a fortune.

Mu Lingzi didn't care about Zhang Yuan's tone, turned around and pointed to a crying child with a banner in his hand and said: "See that child, his parents and brothers, and a family of five all died last night, and they live in the first house at the entrance of the village, the one where I knocked on the door first, but he has a five-element physique, do you think he will be able to come out in the future?"

Zhang Yuan was already about to get angry when he heard his previous words, but suddenly heard him mention the Five Elements Physique, and instantly calmed down, thinking about what he meant, knowing that I have the exercises corresponding to the Five Elements Physique, he sighed in his mouth: "The Five Elements Physique, it was an absolute big man in ancient times, but it's a pity that which sect has accepted it now, but it's a pity that he was born in the wrong era." Two in a row also expressed his own feelings.

Mu Lingzi smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about his achievements, let's talk about other villagers, you said that if it wasn't for you and me in the village last night, would anyone else come here today?"

Zhang Yuan already felt that there was something wrong with this wooden road chief, so he thought about it and said, "It is estimated that they are all dying in the village, do you mean that our appearance is blessed here." ”

"Yes, you and I are the nobles in their village, there is providence in the dark, providence let me know you, providence let you and I come to this village overnight, providence makes you and I not live at the entrance of the village. ”

Zhang Yuan really didn't think about these things before, when the teacher taught him this knowledge, it was only used for archaeology, or for exams, and he had never studied it deeply, and suddenly thought that he could come to this world from the earth inexplicably, which shows that there are indeed things in this world that cannot be explained by science, or those things that thought they were feudal in the past also have a reason for existing.

Seeing him in a daze, Mu Lingzi knew that he had moved him, so he took out a book from his arms, handed it over and said, "You know physiognomy, you can study this carefully." ”

Zhang Yuan took the book and found that the word "heaven and earth" was written on the cover. I couldn't help but look at his flag.

Mu Lingzi showed his signature deep smile and said, "Yes, heaven and earth are in this book. I have to do seven days of Dharma for the dead villagers here, and you can stay here for a few more days, and if you don't understand anything in the book, ask me, think about these seven days, and you will be blessed. Zhang Yuan couldn't help nodding his head when he said the previous words, and as soon as the words came out, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but think about how he was still fooled by him, and wanted to return the book, and really wanted to see what was said in it.

When the thirty-seven villagers were buried, Zhang Yuan, under the command of Mu Lingzi, skinned and deboned King Yu, and sacrificed the dead villagers with blood, and for a time there were cries on the hillside.

Zhang Yuan searched in the belly of King Yu, but did not find Yuan Dan, and affirmed the conjecture at that time in his heart, this King Yu's cultivation is not high.

Zhang Yuan returned to the ancestral hall after the completion of the memorial ceremony, hesitated for a long time, and then gritted his teeth and took out the book given by Mu Lingzi, and soon Zhang Yuan was attracted by the content of the book.

When it was completely dark, Mu Lingzi came back with a sway, and when he saw Zhang Yuan looking seriously, he smiled and didn't bother, and went back to his room and fell asleep.

Hearing Mu Lingzi's return, Zhang Yuan closed the book and remembered another thing Mu Lingzi said, "He is a five-element physique, do you say he will be able to come out in the future?" muttered: "Five-element physique." Glancing at the next room, his eyes seemed to see through the wall, and he said to himself and Mu Lingzi: "Since you want me to teach him, I will teach him." With that, he opened the door and went out.

Mu Lingzi next door suddenly sat up when he went out, there was still a little drunkenness on his face, and he went out, and after a while, he came back with a solemn face, came to the table and picked up a pen to write something on the paper, wrote four sheets in a row, and then came to the window, put his finger in his mouth, a low birdsong sounded, and after a while, four big birds flew in, Mu Lingzi tied what he had just written to the bird's legs, and Mu Lingzi just stood by the window and watched the birds go away in the dark night.

Zhang Yuan came out of the room and went straight to the child's residence, his house was just the door was broken by the wild boy, and it has not been repaired yet, Zhang Yuan walked in, came to the child's bedside, and looked at him in his sleep He was still shaking, obviously the blow to him last night was too great.

Zhang Yuan sighed slightly, and secretly hoped that it would not affect his future cultivation, and leaned over and patted him at the moment, and the child woke up at the touch, shrunk into the bed with the quilt, and looked at him in horror.

Zhang Yuan smiled and whispered: "It's me, I won't hurt you, you take it easy." After saying that, he went out of the night pearl again.

The faint light immediately dispelled the darkness, and the child saw his face clearly, with a happy look on his face, and immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed nine times in a row, shouting excitedly: "Master, please teach me to practice." ”

Zhang Yuan didn't stop him, and when he was finished, he pulled him up and asked, "What's your name?" Who taught you to say that, how do you know that I will definitely accept you?"

"My name is Zhuang Zimu, and I was said by the Taoist chief, and he said that you will definitely come tonight. The child said excitedly.

This stinky Taoist priest counted my character enough to death, Zhang Yuan scolded secretly, and said with a kind smile on his face: "Okay, you will be my Zhang Yuan's apprentice in the future, I will teach you to practice now." ”

Zhang Yuan's teaching is naturally not the "Theory of the Five Elements", nor is it "Luo Shen Decision" but the legacy of the predecessor in the Peach Blossom Mountain, although this exercise is only to the ninth level of Shen Ning, but Zhang Yuan is confident that he can find the follow-up exercises in the "Theory of the Five Elements", and then teach him, even if he can't find it, he can also rely on this exercise to mix with a high-level in any sect.

Zhang Yuan memorized the exercises to him paragraph by paragraph, Zhuang Zimu was very smart, and he memorized the exercises after only listening to them twice, Zhang Yuan was very happy and said: "Yes, do you have to remember that this exercise can't be told to anyone?"

"Can't you tell the Wooden Daoist?" Zhuangzi Mu asked, in his heart the Wooden Daoist is also a good person.

Zhang Yuan touched his head, but his eyes looked at a tree outside the window and said: "You don't need to tell him, he also knows this exercise, the master can't be by your side in the future, and if you don't understand anything, you can also ask him." ”

Mu Lingzi hid in that tree, but he hid it very well, and his breath was almost completely integrated into the tree, Zhang Yuan didn't notice him at first, until when he memorized the exercises, Mu Lingzi's breath fluctuated slightly, and he was discovered by his divine sense, but he didn't break it until now.
