Chapter 140: The Demon Clan
In an area of this huge swamp woodland, after listening to Ye Kui's explanation, that Jiang Dao Chang decided to help Ye Kui find the item that sank under the swamp.
"Ye Daoyou, to be honest, Poor Dao is a little curious about what the item you are looking for? If you can be more careful, it will be easier to look for it later. ”
"Let me ask Daoist Jiang a question first, what kind of monk organization do you think Hongfeng Pavilion and Cailan Yaju are?"
"I understand if Ye Daoyou asks this, it turned out to be a bounty or task from those two factions of dealers, although I don't like Hongfeng Pavilion and Cailan Yaju very much, but now it's Ye Daoyou's business to find that item, I'll put up with it for the time being."
"Thank you Jiang Daochang first, I got the information from Hongfeng Pavilion, that item is a necked double-horned double-horned double skull that has been lost for a hundred years"
After Ye Kui heard that Jiang Daochang did not show any objection or leave intentions, Ye Kui explained what the items he was looking for in this entire swamp woodland.
"Neck, horns, and skulls? It sounds a little familiar, oh, Poor Dao remembered, it was the bones of the demon clan in the demon cultivator, but there was a slight difference, only the skull formed after the death of the more deformed and peculiar demon cultivator in the demon cultivator was called the double skull with neck and horns.
Moreover, this kind of deformed and demonic cultivation is extremely difficult to see, and the mind and realm of each deformed and demonic cultivator are not ordinary and can be compared. ”
When Jiang Daochang said this, he also stretched out his hand and gestured a few times in front of him, and simply told Ye Kui the shape and size of the double horns and double skulls with neck.
"It turns out that Jiang Daochang still knows this, so does Jiang Daochang know what this double-horned double skull with neck does and how to find it? Originally, I was ready to go into the depths of the swamp and slowly salvage it, but I didn't expect that Daoist Jiang You, you happened to be the first to be fished out of the swamp by me. ”
After Ye Kui heard Jiang Zhijin's explanation from the young Daoist, he tried to tease Daoist Jiang in a relaxed tone.
"Hahaha, Ye Daoyou, what you said, don't mention the troubles, let's continue to talk about the neck, horns and skulls, that thing is still some news that Poor Dao learned from his uncle.
The neck, the double horns and double skulls are similar to a magic weapon, no, it should be said to be a magic weapon, it can't be directly used to attack other people or demons, and it can only be turned into a treasure after refining it with a special method.
The monk or demon cultivator can then get an additional copy of the same effect when casting the spell, but with each use, the necked and double-horned double skulls that have been refined into magic weapons will crack a little.
And the more complicated and powerful the spells and witchcraft cast, the more damaged the neck-double-horned double-skull will be, but Uncle Poor Dao also said that only the Demon Clan can repair the damaged double-horned double-horned double-skull, in addition..."
Jiang Zhijin laughed a few times in embarrassment at first, and then told Ye Kui again seriously about the role of the neck, double horns, double skull, and other related relationships.
"Jiang Daochang has something to say, and I, Ye Kui, promise not to spread it."
"That's good, Uncle Poor Dao also said that in addition to being able to refine the magic weapon, the double-horned and double-skull with a neck can also be used as a sealing thing, specially used to seal the soul of a monk or demon cultivator."
Jiang Zhijin's face became a little solemn when he said this, and his tone of voice was a little serious.
"I look at Daoist Jiang's appearance, could it be that there is some extremely evil demon cultivator's divine soul sealed in the neck-necked, double-horned, and double-skull sinking in this swampy woodland? Or is it the spirit of the demon turned into a fallen monk sealed in the double skull?"
The current Ye Kui also roughly guessed some things from Jiang Zhijin's expression and way of speaking, if the neck, horns, and double skulls were only cultivated into magic weapons, then there was really nothing to worry about.
I'm afraid that the double-horned double skull with a neck is something that has been refined into a seal, and then Ye Kui and Jiang Zhijin may encounter danger after finding the double-horned double skull.
Who knows how powerful the guy is there?
"Ye Daoyou, don't worry, Poor Dao has his own way to try whether the neck, horns, and double skulls have been refined into treasures or seals."
"Then there is Chief Lao Jiang."
After hearing Jiang Zhijin say this, Ye Kui also took a few steps in other directions, making way for Jiang Zhijin to make way for a vacant land.
Then Jiang Zhijin took out a bloodstained talisman and sandwiched it between the fingers of his right hand, and silently recited something.
Then Ye Kui saw that a certain finger of Jiang Zhijin's right hand was tightly wrapped by the talisman, and then Jiang Zhijin used the fingers of his left hand to slash his right hand and was wrapped by the finger of the talisman, and finally the finger wrapped by the talisman was scratched.
Jiang Zhijin raised his right hand, and blood dripped on the solid mud grass, and afterwards, a totem like a beast pattern was slowly sketched.
"Daoist Jiang, what's the situation?"
Ye Kui felt a little bad after seeing the plane totem in front of Jiang Zhijin.
"Ye Daoyou, the two of us are really lucky, that neck, double-horned, double-horned double skull has been refined into a carrier specially used to seal other divine souls."
Jiang Zhijin looked at Ye Kui seriously.
"What does Dao Chang Jiang mean to stop here?"
"Ye Daoyou, do you still want to find that neck, double-horned, double-horned and double-skull? There was an unknown spirit sealed inside, and in addition, Poor Dao guessed that the neck, horns, and skulls were deliberately lost in this swampy woodland.
But now there is another monk or another group of monks who want to get the neck, horns, and skull, so we shouldn't go any further. ”
Jiang Zhijin has already begun to express his refusal.
"There is some truth in what Jiang Daochang said, but if it is really as Jiang Daochang said, then this matter of neck, horns and skulls should attract a group of monks to come to this swamp and woodland to look for it.
But now Jiang Daochang also saw it, it seems that there are only me and Jiang Daochang in this swamp woodland, if it wasn't for Jiang Daochang who happened to land in the swamp, then I would be the only one in this swamp woodland. ”
Although this Jiang Daochang said that the matter was a bit serious, Ye Kui felt that he could continue to look for it, and the three forbidden methods he learned were just right to restrain these.
"Ye Daoyou, when you were in the Houshan Crypt in Shili County before, Poor Dao also advised you not to act in a hurry, then you also listened to Poor Dao's words, and then Poor Dao helped you break through the magic circle and prohibition around the crypt as the master said.
At that time, it was the master of the poor road who personally helped the poor dao calculate a hexagram before he told the poor dao to help you obtain the fairy sword, this time since there is a contradiction, then let the poor dao also count a hexagram, but this hexagram is for Ye Daoyou. ”
After Jiang Zhijin finished speaking, he took out several copper plates that were unique and old to Qianxi Temple, and then prepared to mention Ye Kui Bu Hexagram.
There are basically several kinds of deduction and fortune telling, the most common of which is to directly pinch the fingers, and there is also the category of fortune counting with the help of foreign objects.
Although the former is relatively simple and fast, it is more suitable for monks who are in a high realm or are very good in the way of postponement and divination, or even take the lead in the world, in order to ensure the accuracy of the deferred and divination.
The latter is to make up for its own shortcomings with the help of external objects, making deduction and divination more accurate, and at the same time slightly reducing the power of backlash and other karma caused by a glimpse of the sky.
Of course, the former can also use external objects to help with deduction and divination, but this is just the icing on the cake for that type of monk.
Just when Jiang Zhijin was about to help Ye Kui calculate the hexagram, Ye Kui hurriedly came to Jiang Zhijin, and then took advantage of Jiang Zhijin's concentration to prepare.
"Daochang Jiang, this hexagram doesn't have to be counted, of course, don't try to deduce my affairs in the future, I say this for your own good."
At this time, Ye Kui couldn't directly say how much influence the Heavenly Prison Dao Method among the three forbidden methods he learned had on his own cause and effect, and it might bring unnecessary trouble if he said it.
"Ye Daoyou, what do you mean by this? Let's not talk about fortune-telling, those copper plates are not something that can be seen everywhere in the world, how can you just take them?
Poor Dao completely believed you just now, so he didn't deliberately guard against you, otherwise Ye Daoyou, you wouldn't have been able to take those copper plates from Poor Dao so simply. ”
Jiang Zhijin seemed to be a little angry, and at the same time took out a whisk.
"Daoist Jiang, don't worry, these copper plates will be returned to you."
After that, Ye Kui didn't say much, but returned a lot of copper plates snatched from Jiang Zhijin's palm to Jiang Zhijin.
"Daoist Jiang, don't worry about helping me find the neck, double-horned and double-skull, although I can't tell you the reason for the time being, I can guarantee that there will be no danger."
"It seems that Ye Daoyou, you have completely taken the things related to the things related to the double horns and double skulls that Poor Dao said before as a deaf ear, and Poor Dao has been explaining to you for so long."
Jiang Zhijin didn't expect that after just a few years of not seeing him, this Ye Kui would become so difficult to convince, and this Ye Kui was unwilling to let him, a pious Taoist priest, tell him a fortune, which was really strange.
"Daoist Jiang doesn't have to persuade me anymore, just say how to find the double-horned double skull with neck, and when we find it, let's observe and observe the double-horned double skull with neck."
"That's it, anyway, before going out today, Poor Dao has already made a simple calculation for himself, and the luck of that meeting is good, so Poor Dao will believe you Ye Kui once."
"Then thank you Jiang Daochang first."
In fact, what Ye Kui wanted to say was that you, Jiang Zhijin, almost fell into the swamp because of the emptiness of the spiritual power of his whole body, and then slowly sank, if he didn't happen to be nearby, then your Jiang Dao Chang was really unpredictable.
After that, Jiang Zhijin simply sat cross-legged in place, and the dust was held by him on his arm, so at a glance, this Jiang Daoist looked like a Taoist priest.
Ye Kui on the side remembered that this Jiang Zhijin used to call himself a small way, but now he claims to be poor, Ye Kui was still a little unaccustomed to it before, and after getting along for half an hour, he was not as awkward as before.
"Ye Daoyou, Poor Dao has already found the approximate location of the neck, double horns, and double skull, which is more than forty zhang away from our right back."
"Then let's go over, and we may have to continue to rely on Jiang Daochang to make a move."
"Little things."
So Ye Kui and Jiang Daochang came to the area where the neck, horns, and skulls were located.
"Will Daochang Jiang continue to narrow down the search?"
"No need, we are in front of us, now Ye Daoyou can go down and get the neck, double horn and double skull by himself, but Ye Daoyou, you must handle it gently, and you can't go wrong."
"Don't worry, Jiang Daochang, I will pay attention."
After Ye Kui and Jiang Zhijin finished speaking, they walked directly towards the swamp in front of them.
At this time, Ye Kui stretched out his right hand and aimed at the swamp in front of him, and those swamps were rolled into two mud tornadoes as if they were being pulled by something, flying to other places in the distance.
In the end, Ye Kui found the mud-stained double-horned double-horned double skull and brought it to Jiang Zhijin.
"Jiang Daochang, I have found this double-horned double skull with neck, do you want to see the actual situation of this double-horned double skull?"
"That's fine, but first wait for Poor Dao to clean up all the mud and mud on this neck, double horn and double skull, of course, Ye Daoyou can also wash his hands."
"It's okay, let's ask Jiang Daochang to cast a spell."
After a while, Jiang Zhijin was holding the cleaned double-horned double-horned double skull with a neck, and after checking it up and down, left and right, and then returning it to Ye Kui.
"Ye Daoyou, fortunately, this double-horned double-skull seal with neck is perfectly preserved, and the seal on the double-horned double-skull with neck is only one or two percent damaged."
"Daoist Jiang, you mean that the seal effect on this Neck-Necked Double-Horned Double Skull is still strong, so can I use the Neck-Linked Double-Horned Double Skull to complete the reward?"
"Ye Daoyou, whether you change it or not, whether you give it or not basically has nothing to do with Poor Dao, today Poor Dao only occasionally encounters it, and Poor Dao doesn't want to have too many things to do with it."
When Jiang Zhijin answered Ye Kui, he left the swamp woodland.
"Now that I'm the only one left, should I see what's sealed inside this neck-and-neck, double-horned, double-horned double skull?"
Ye Kui was thinking about it, but in the end he dispelled this idea, so the neck-and-neck, double-horned and double-skull was received by Ye Kui into the space ring, and at the same time, Ye Kui also left here.
"Catch a crying nightingale alive. It's time to finish the last bounty and capture a weeping nightingale alive. ”
After that, Ye Kui came to a forest with huge trees, the trees in this forest were extremely tall and the tree circumference was very exaggerated, and there were many bushes around.
In this primeval forest, if a normal person squats or half-squats, he will basically feel some data lines of touching monks, or rather.
"It's also a bit difficult to catch a crying nightingale unscathed, first of all, it's hard to find a crying nightingale, and the crying nightingale also has extremely sensitive eyesight and pays close attention to its surroundings."
These things that Ye Kui said were also some of the clues that Ye Kui got from Hongfeng Pavilion.
It is worth noting that the weeping nightingale will only grieve once in his life, and when the weeping is over, the weeping nightingale will also die, and the point is that the weeping nightingale will weep immediately when it encounters a danger that it thinks it cannot escape.
In this way, the nightingale could only be knocked unconscious without reacting. ”
After thinking about this, Ye Kui began to look for branches suitable for standing, then took out a gray robe with a hood and put it on his body, and then stood on the branch of another big tree like a branch that stretched upwards vertically.
Two hours later it was late at night, and to the worst of luck it was drizzling.
"This crying nightingale obviously likes to cry, but he hates rainy days very much, it's really troublesome."
Ye Kui could only sigh in his heart, and the rain did not continue to grow stronger after that, but Ye Kui did not use his spiritual power to avoid the rain in order not to disturb the crying nightingale.
So now Ye Kui's gray robe is also half soaked, and inside the gray robe, Ye Kui's back and shoulders are also soaked a lot by the rain, and Ye Kui's face and hair are also like this.
"Looks like we'll have to find a place to rest tonight, and the weeping nightingale will probably be in its nest all the time."
Just when Ye Kui was about to leave the big tree, the rain in the sky also stopped, and Ye Kui could only choose to continue to wait when he saw this.
Half an hour later, a crying nightingale with a body that seemed to be three or four times larger than the nightingale in the world, with black feathers at the corners of its eyes, appeared far behind Ye Kui.
"Here we are."
This will make Ye Kui glad that he chose to continue to wait, otherwise he would have missed this opportunity.
"I'm going to stay still for now, and I'll stun the nightingale when it passes me, and then I'll have to find a birdcage or something before the nightingale wakes up.
And at first, I waited for it to shoot when it didn't realize the danger, so that the crying nightingale wouldn't cry to death when it woke up, but would the crying nightingale cry to death with nervousness when it saw it staying in the birdcage by itself?"
Now Ye Kui suddenly realized that this crying nightingale was really difficult to deal with, especially the follow-up series of things, but unfortunately the information given by Hongfeng Pavilion was all that.
At this time, the crying nightingale had already flown to the right rear area of Ye Kui, and when the crying nightingale flew over Ye Kui's shoulder, Ye Kui quickly stretched out two fingers and hit the back of the crying nightingale's head.
The crying nightingale immediately closed his eyes and fell from the sky, but was caught by Ye Kui in time, and then Ye Kui just hugged the crying nightingale in his arms, and then used his wind to rush towards the Hongfeng Pavilion that was closest to him.
Along the way, Ye Kui was still afraid that the crying nightingale would suddenly wake up, so he could only properly control the speed of the flight and try not to feel too much shaking of the crying nightingale.
"There is also Hongfeng Pavilion in the city in front, but I don't know this point, the Hongfeng Pavilion in this city is estimated to have closed down."
Originally, Ye Kui thought that he had found the lightning strike wood, the double-horned double-cranial with the neck, and the crying nightingale earlier, but he didn't expect it to take so much time.
"Huh? The lights in Hongfeng Pavilion are still on, so maybe you can go in and ask about the situation. ”
After Ye Kui entered a strange city, he began to look for the location of the Hongfeng Pavilion in the city, and when Ye Kui came to the Hongfeng Pavilion in the city, Ye Kui saw that the Hongfeng Pavilion was still bright.
"This fellow Daoist is here to deliver the bounty items? Wait a minute, then?"
After the monks in the Hongfeng Pavilion branch or Ye Kui received Ye Kui, they greeted Ye Kui from time to time after the New Year.
"That's right, if you can, please go and call one of your ordinary stewards or chief stewards, you may not be able to directly confirm the bounty I have completed and deliver the items after the task."
After Ye Kui finished speaking, he also took out the Hongjiu jade pendant on his body, and originally wanted to say something to your monk buddy to refute Ye Kui
But after they saw the Hongjiu jade pendant that Ye Kui took out, they became a lot quieter and more respectful, and at the same time asked Ye Kui to wait, they immediately went to find an ordinary steward or a chief steward.
"This fellow Daoist, I have already determined the lightning strike wood, the double-horned double-skull, and the crying nightingale you took out, and now the spirit stone you deserve can be taken from me now, and the reward has been distributed to your Hongjiu Jade Pendant."
"Then I'll just take my leave, and I'll bother."
"Needless to say, that's our mission."
At this time, it was one of the many ordinary stewards in this Hongfeng Pavilion who was talking to Ye Kui.
When Ye Kui was sure that the spirit stone rewards and reward he had received were correct, he left the city.
After coming over for a while, Ye Kui came to the bottom of a waterfall, and then Ye Kui looked at a wooden toy that was constantly washed down by the splash of water, that is, a wooden man.
But this time, Ye Kui met again the acquaintances who helped each other not long ago.
"Daoist Jiang, are you stalking me?"
"Ye Daoyou's words are a little wrong, Poor Dao will not be so idle, this time it is really just an accident."
"Really?"
After Ye Kui listened to the explanation of Jiang Daochang on the other side, he always felt in his heart that this Jiang Zhijin's ability to deceive people was really good.
"Poor Dao knows what Ye Daoyou is thinking, it's just that, since Poor Dao has come, then I won't continue to hide it from Ye Daoyou.
Ye Daoyou, my uncle wants the double-necked double-horned double-skull you found before, I'm sorry, because Poor Dao is really worried about Ye Daoyou's safety, so Poor Dao told Uncle Shi about you and me looking for a double-horned double-horned double-skull. ”
Jiang Zhijin said as he took out a folded piece of white paper and handed it to Ye Kui.
"Daoist Jiang, I can't give or sell that double-horned double-horned double-skull to your senior uncle Jiang Zhijin, because I have already handed over the double-horned double-horned double-skull to Hongfeng Pavilion in exchange for the corresponding spirit stone.
But Jiang Daoyou, this piece of paper was also handed over to me by your uncle, right? It's a pity that I used it, and I've already made it very clear. ”
"It's Poor Dao who hesitated, at the beginning, Poor Dao should have stopped Ye Daoyou from looking for the double-horned double skull with a neck sealed with a special divine soul, but Poor Dao wanted to ask clearly, Daoist Jiang that master of yours would be so interested in the double-horned double skull?"
Ye Kui wanted to see what the Taoist priest standing behind the curtain was thinking.
"Actually, it's like this Ye Daoyou, when Poor Dao left the swampy woodland, he was a little worried about whether Ye Daoyou would be affected by the neck, double horns and double skull.
So Poor Dao stopped halfway and tried to contact Uncle Shi, and then Poor Dao also told him about himself and Ye Kui in the swamp and woodland, and then Uncle Shi thought about exchanging the other items with Ye Daoyou for two horns and two skulls. ”
"Daoist Jiang, I know, but what I said just now is very clear, not long ago, I handed over the double skull with two necks and horns to Hongfeng Pavilion, in order to complete the bounty to obtain the spirit stone.
In addition, I also ask Jiang Daochang to tell your senior uncle that if you want to have a neck, two horns and two skulls, go to Hehongfeng Pavilion by yourself, and don't come to me to do something. ”
Ye Kui didn't want to destroy his friendship with Jiang Zhijin, and at the same time, he didn't want Jiang Zhijin to be too embarrassed by his uncle after returning to Qianxi Temple, so he could only push the matter of the neck, horns and skulls to Hongfeng Pavilion as much as possible.
In this way, if Jiang Zhijin's senior uncle really cared about the neck, double horns and double skull, then Jiang Zhijin's senior uncle would definitely go to Hongfeng Pavilion to bargain in person.
Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, Jiang Zhijin's uncle should not be willful enough to spill his anger on Ye Kui or Jiang Zhijin.
