Chapter 40: Strange Tales of the Night Road

Li Daoxuan held an oil-paper umbrella in his hand, hung a fish intestine sword on his waist, and put his bags into the Three Realms Hu, running the shrinking earth and rushing to Yuzhang City, which was three hundred miles away.

After stepping into the early stage of Bigu, his path advanced greatly, and the technique of shrinking the earth became faster, and the surrounding scenery seemed to be distorted, and he quickly retreated.

After walking for more than an hour, it became dark.

Li Daoxuan didn't know where he had gone, it should be in a mountain forest, surrounded by lush greenery.

He was going to ask someone for directions first.

It was also an inconvenience in ancient times, without map navigation, it was easy to get lost.

Li Daoxuan walked for a while, and finally saw an old man who was carrying firewood and preparing to go home.

The other party was startled when he saw a figure suddenly appear in the mountains and forests, but when he saw that it was a Taoist priest, he relaxed a lot.

Taoism is the state religion of the Tang Dynasty, and even Li Shimin said that his ancestor was Lao Tzu Li Dan, so the status of Taoist priests in the Tang Dynasty was relatively high.

"Poor Daoist Li Daoxuan, I have seen a layman, may I ask where this is?"

The old man was a little flattered when he saw the other party saluting him, and hurriedly said, "The Taoist chief is polite, this is Cuiwei Mountain." ”

Cuiwei Mountain ......

Li Daoxuan frowned and said, "May I ask the layman, how far is it from Yuzhang City here?" ”

The old man smiled: "You are asking the right person, I have been to Yuzhang City once, crossed Cuiwei Mountain, went east, and walked more than a hundred miles to arrive." ”

Li Daoxuan breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that he did not go in the wrong direction.

He handed over a few copper plates and said, "A little heart, please accept it." ”

The old man didn't want to accept it, but under Li Daoxuan's strong request, he still accepted it, and at this moment he had a very good impression of this handsome and handsome Taoist.

It is rare for a commoner like him to be treated with such courtesy.

Just as Li Daoxuan was about to leave, the old man hesitated, but still stepped forward and persuaded: "This Taoist chief, are you planning to walk at night?" ”

Li Daoxuan nodded and said, "Exactly, what's wrong?" ”

"If the Taoist chief doesn't dislike it, let's go with me to the bottom of the mountain for a night, the night road here...... It's not peaceful! ”

Not peaceful?

Li Daoxuan's eyes lit up and asked, "Could it be that there are some dirty things here at night?" ”

There was a trace of fear in the old man's eyes, and he said: "Don't hide it, some time ago, several people died mysteriously while walking at night, I heard that the eyeballs were very big, I should have seen some scary dirty things!" ”

"The government sent someone to investigate, at first it was said that it was a Jiangyang thief, but soon the people from the government also died, and like the previous people, their eyes were very wide, and since then, at night, no one dares to come here."

The old man looked at the gradually darkening sky around him, his body trembled, and he said in fear: "Dao Chief, let's hurry down the mountain!" ”

Li Daoxuan smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, but there are still important things to do in the poor road, and we must hurry as soon as possible, so I won't bother." ”

"As for that filthy thing......"

Li Daoxuan said calmly: "If the poor Dao really encounters it, it will be easily eliminated, and it can be regarded as getting rid of a scourge for the people." ”

The old man wanted to continue to persuade, but saw the young Taoist priest laugh and walk away.

"Dao Chief, Dao-"

The old man was stunned, because it was just a blink of an eye, and the young Taoist priest was gone, and the surrounding mountains and forests were silent, as if everything just now was just an illusion.

However, the old man looked at the copper plates in his hand and was sure that it was not an illusion!

The old man shuddered, he felt that he had either met the mountain spirit and wild monster, or he had met a master!

But when I think of the other party's polite appearance before, it should be a real outsider!

He decided to take these copper coins as family heirlooms, after all, they were given by masters, and there must be something special......

In the mountains of Cuiwei.

Li Daoxuan slowed down, for fear that the dirty thing would not be able to find him.

The Demon Book hasn't opened for a while, I wonder if I can be lucky enough to meet a monster this time?

As for whether it is possible that it will not be beaten?

After Li Daoxuan was promoted to the early stage of Bigu, he had been practicing Taoism for more than ten years, plus various magic weapons and an immortal weapon, as well as a red cloth, he was naturally full of confidence.

The sky was getting darker and darker, the moonlight in the mountains and forests was dim, and it was pitch black all around.

Li Daoxuan used his magic eyes, easily dodged the thorns, and walked in a chic way, the only thing that bothered him was perhaps the flying little insects.

I don't know how long I walked, but just when Li Daoxuan thought that his abacus was about to fail, a faint blue flame suddenly appeared in front of him.

It's a ghost fire!

When ordinary people saw this scene, they must have fled backwards in fright, but Li Daoxuan's eyes lit up and he hurriedly walked in the direction of the ghost fire.

It didn't take long for the ghost fire to become more and more frequent, and the surroundings became brighter and brighter.

A figure stood in front of Li Daoxuan.

He had his back to Li Daoxuan, hunched over his waist, wearing a wide black robe and light yellow hair.

Those ghostly fires surrounded him, and the cyan fire light shone on his body, which looked very eerie.

Barren mountains, ancient roads, ghost fires, back......

If a timid person sees this scene, I am afraid that he will immediately faint with fright, but for Li Daoxuan, it is a small scene.

He looked at this back carefully, although the other party was wearing human clothes, it gave people a feeling of being a monkey.

It should be some kind of demon beast that has become a spirit.

At this moment, the back figure slowly turned around, revealing a lean face with a sly gaze and a sharp chin, as if it were ......

Li Daoxuan's eyes lit up, and he had already guessed the other party's heels.

"Housheng, look at me...... Like God? ”

The man showed an oozing smile and a hoarse voice, and asked Li Daoxuan.

Hearing this question, Li Daoxuan's eyes froze, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, and at the same time, he also confirmed the guess in his heart.

The other party is not a person, but a yellow skin!

The so-called yellow skin is a weasel that has become a fine spirit, and the folk also call it Wong Tai Sin.

Master once said that after the weasel cultivates to a certain level, he will block the way and ask for a seal.

The so-called begging for a seal is to ask passers-by a question, if he asks if you see me like a human, then the answer is like a human, and then the weasel can turn into a human form, and passers-by can also live, maybe they can get some reward.

But there is one exception, extremely dangerous!

That's the situation that Li Daoxuan is facing now, Huang Pizi is not asking if he is like a person, but whether he is like a god!

How can a person have the right to be a god, at this time, if he answers like a god, he will be sucked away by the other party and die violently, if he does not answer like this, he will be angered and his internal organs will be eaten.

This is a question that will kill you no matter how you answer it!

The master said that he would ask this kind of question, and at the beginning of his cultivation, he committed many killing rings, and his body must be surrounded by blood and light, and he was full of grievances, so he didn't have to hesitate to kill him directly!

"Housheng, do you look at me, do you look like a god?"

Seeing that Li Daoxuan didn't answer for a long time, Huang Pizi seemed to be a little anxious, he asked again, his gloomy eyes stared at Li Daoxuan, and yellow hairs appeared on his infiltrating face......
