Chapter 129: Turning Stones into Gold (Happy Chinese New Year)

"Ah, old shopkeeper, what are you doing here? Hurry up, hurry up......" Yuan Ming pretended to be surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward to help.

However, the old cigarette pouch stubbornly refused to get up.

"Immortal Master, I saw it before, this golden lump was turned into the stone in the courtyard by you using immortal spells." The old cigarette pouch was prostrate on the ground, and he didn't dare to raise his head and said.

When Yuan Ming heard this, he held the arm of the old cigarette pouch and stiffened.

The old cigarette pouch immediately felt a slight change in him, thinking that he had debunked it, and shocked Yuan Ming.

"Immortal master must not blame, Xiao Lao'er didn't mean to offend, he really saw it unintentionally, God knows this matter, and he will never dare to let a third person know a little bit." He hurriedly confessed again, his head lowered, and his face was already on the ground.

At this time, Yuan Ming let go of the hand that was supporting him and stood up straight, but did not speak.

The courtyard suddenly fell silent, the old cigarette pouch couldn't see the change in Yuan Ming's expression, and he wasn't sure how he would look at himself, he was a little regretful and annoyed for a while, and the sweat on his forehead couldn't help but flow, forming a small circle of watermarks around his head.

Seeing that the sense of oppression was enough, Yuan Ming let out a long sigh.

"Alas, I thought I had avoided people, but you still saw it, and it was fate. That's it, this piece of gold is the cost of accommodation, and it is given to you, and it can be regarded as the fate of you and me. ”

As soon as Yuan Ming's words came out, the image of a master outside the world immediately stood up.

The old cigarette pouch trembled violently, and he was already convinced at this moment.

"Immortal Master, the little old man is not greedy for money, and he doesn't dare to ask for the fairy master's gold, but he has been very yearning for fairy magic since he was a child, I just ask you to be kind and teach me the spell of turning stones into gold with one hand, and the little old man will have no regrets in this life." He didn't get up, but kowtowed like pounding garlic and pleaded sincerely.

"This is ......" Yuan Ming looked very embarrassed.

"Immortal Master, please teach me the skills of the Immortal Family!" The head of the old cigarette pouch hit the ground and "thump".

"To tell you the truth, the immortal master who taught me the magic once said that the art of turning stones into gold must not be performed in front of outsiders. Once you are inadvertently seen, you must give a generous reward, but cause and effect. If you really want to learn, it's not that I can't teach you, it's just ......" Yuan Ming saw that the heat was almost over, so he spoke.

"If the immortal master has any requirements, just mention it." Seeing the opportunity, the old cigarette pouch hurriedly raised his head, moved a few steps towards Yuan Ming with his kneeling legs, and said.

"It's not that there are any requirements, but if you want to learn this stone into alchemy, you need to be penniless and fall into a difficult situation, so in such a state of mind, you can really comprehend, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve the magic. The so-called law is not lightly transmitted, and this is the case for saving people in need. Yuan Ming put his hands behind his back, looked at the void in front of him, and said slowly.

The old cigarette pouch was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking about it carefully, he actually felt that there was some truth, but when he thought of the family business he had saved with great difficulty, he couldn't help but have some gains and losses in his heart.

"About a year ago, I woke up naked in a cemetery, and if I hadn't been rescued by that old immortal master, I am afraid that I would have lost my life long ago." Yuan Ming continued to make up the story and said with some emotion.

When the old cigarette pouch lying on the ground heard this, his heart trembled violently again.

But then, I heard Yuan Ming continue: "The old immortal master saw that I was in a predicament, penniless, and looked like I was in despair, and I met the qualifications for cultivating the art of turning stones into gold, and he also took pity on my experience, so he taught me this technique." And now that you are living a rich life, you can't experience this state of mind, so naturally you can't learn it. ”

Seeing that Yuan Ming didn't mention anything more about the cemetery, the old cigarette bag was a little relieved, but he soon started thinking crookedly.

"Immortal Master, then if I transfer all my property to others and I am penniless, will I be able to learn?" The old cigarette pouch raised his head, looked at Yuan Ming with his neck tilted, and asked.

"Yes." Yuan Ming nodded.

The old cigarette pouch was overjoyed, if he had such a spell, what was his property? It's not a matter of earning it back at the touch of a finger.

"That immortal master, after learning this stone into gold, don't you have to continue to be penniless?" The old cigarette pouch asked cautiously.

"It's natural, do you look like I'm penniless?" Yuan Ming chuckled and asked rhetorically.

"Not like, not like." The old cigarette pouch said again and again.

He was already thinking in his heart that he would pass on all his property to his son first, and then come to study law, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds, foolproof.

"But I have to remind you, if you really want to learn some stone alchemy, not only yourself, but also your relatives can't have any property, you must be really penniless and in a difficult situation, otherwise the Dao heart is not strong, and it will be in vain." Yuan Ming saw through his careful thinking at a glance, and immediately spoke.

Hearing this, the old cigarette bag frowned, and suddenly hesitated again, and his face changed for a while.

But soon, he made up his mind, and he was reluctant to let the child trap the wolf.

"It's not easy for an immortal master to pass on my immortal method. Since I can't keep any property in my body, I will simply transfer all this family wealth to you, the immortal master, and just ask you to pass on my skill of turning stones into gold. The old cigarette pouch kowtowed again.

"I'm not interested in money, but you're sincere, and it seems that you're really related to me. After this method is passed on to you, you should also remember not to be seen by outsiders when you cast it. If he is seen, his wish must be granted. Yuan Ming bowed his head slightly and instructed.

"I must remember, I must remember." The old cigarette pouch was overjoyed and kowtowed again and again.

"Get up, and if I have allowed you, I will rest here for half a day. Prepare yourself, and when you come back, I will teach you the mantra and the tricks of magic. Yuan Ming said.

"Immortal Master, please wait in the room for a while." The old cigarette pouch kowtowed, got up, and hurried to the front yard.

It didn't take long for the old cigarette pouch to rush back with a dark purple wooden box.

As soon as he entered the room, he turned around and closed the door, and immediately placed the rather heavy wooden box on Yuan Ming's table.

"Immortal Master, here is my entire net worth, I don't have anything left, I will give it all to you." The old cigarette pouch gasped slightly because he was in a hurry.

Yuan Ming didn't open it, but just stroked it casually, and the wooden box disappeared out of thin air.

When the old cigarette pouch saw this scene, his pupils couldn't help but dilate a little.

What is it? This is really a fairy skill!

Yuan Ming's expression did not change in the slightest, and he became more and more of a worldly master.

"The first attempt, you must not have the slightest gold, silver and jade on your body, these will lead to the failure of the spell." After Yuan Ming finished speaking, his eyes glanced meaningfully at the cigarette stick in the old cigarette pouch's hand.

"If it weren't for the immortal master's reminder, I almost forgot about this." The latter was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said.

As he spoke, he took off the white jade ring hanging from the cigarette stick, removed the red thread that was wrapped around it, and placed it on the table.

Yuan Ming stroked his hand, and the jade ring disappeared with it.

"The mantra can only be memorized by heart, not copied by pen, you have to memorize it well." Yuan Ming glanced at him and spoke.

Hearing this, the old cigarette pouch nodded hurriedly.

Yuan Ming thought about it for a while, so he combined the exercises he had seen, made up a few mantras similar to "Heavenly Spirit, Earth Spirit", and taught the old cigarette bag.

Although the old cigarette pouch is old, his memory on this matter is surprisingly good.

Yuan Ming only taught it twice, and he remembered it firmly.

"You need to keep in mind that when performing this technique, it must be when the sun rises every day, and you must find an open place in the courtyard, while stepping on the gang, sincerely saluting the four directions, and reciting the mantra." Yuan Ming admonished.

The old cigarette pouch recalled that Yuan Ming was walking around the yard in the morning while chanting words, and his heart suddenly changed, and he nodded hurriedly like pounding garlic.

"The first time you cast a spell, it is especially important to fast and bathe the day before, and you must be penniless and sincere. If the first spell fails, it will go against the heavens, and it will never succeed again. Yuan Ming demonstrated the Gangbu walking method, and then continued.

When the old cigarette pouch heard this, he nodded again and again, suppressing the excitement and impatience in his heart.

To perform such immortal arts, there should be such complicated rituals, otherwise it will be too child's play.

"Don't eat meat now, boil hot water, bathe and cleanse yourself at night, and wait for the early sun tomorrow. It's almost time, you and I are already on the road, take care. Yuan Ming said and stood up.

"Why don't you stay one more night, let me entertain you again." When the old cigarette pouch heard this, he hurriedly said.

When Yuan Ming heard this, he suddenly made a face.

"I don't hesitate to spend half a day teaching you by word and deed, why, you don't believe me?" He feigned annoyance.

"Don't dare, don't dare." The old cigarette pouch hurriedly kowtowed, and after seeing Yuan Ming's immortal methods, he really didn't dare, but there was still a trace of apprehension in his heart.

Yuan Ming had already seen the old cigarette pouch's thoughts, and with a wave of his hand, the purple wooden box appeared in front of the old cigarette pouch out of thin air.

"If you don't believe it, just keep these goods, and I have fulfilled your wishes, but I have no more burdens, and you and I will say goodbye." After Yuan Ming finished speaking, he got up and left.

"Immortal Master ......"

As soon as his hand touched the door, the sound of an old cigarette pouch came from behind him.

I only heard his tone and said eagerly: "Don't dare not believe in the immortal master, since the immortal master is leaving, the villain will not be forced to stay, please take these things outside your body." ”

Yuan Ming snickered in his heart, and his face had to maintain the appearance of a master without waves.

"Those who desire are greedy, those who are jealous are angry, those who are foolish are stupid, and those who only believe are up to ......" he chanted, put away the wooden box on the ground, opened the door and walked out.

"Congratulations to the Immortal Master......" The old cigarette pouch hurriedly got up to send it off, and at this time, the last trace of concern in his heart disappeared.

After Yuan Ming left, the old cigarette pouch bathed and cleaned himself up, just in case, he didn't even eat dinner. Lying in bed at night tossing and turning, so excited that I couldn't help myself all night, and if I could, I would like to pull out the sun now.
