The Taoist temple was dilapidated, the wooden door was half down, and it was overgrown with weeds, and the bluestone steps in memory had been buried in the dirt, and only a few were exposed. Half-buried in the soil and vegetation, it returns to nature with the change of seasons.

Li Yi moved his gaze slightly to the right and saw a dirt pit, all the weeds around the dirt pit had died, and a swarthy trace had extended into the Taoist temple.

In my memory, it should be the tomb of the Taoist priest. More than ten years ago, people would come here to worship, but as the previous generation grew old, this Taoist priest who didn't know how many people he had cured also went with the wind.

Li Yi stepped up the bluestone steps that were half covered by the mud, and gently pushed open the wooden door that had been half rotten, and the Taoist temple, which had been sealed for more than ten years, ushered in its first living person.

Weeds emerge from the cracks in the stones, a few bats hang on the beams of the house, and the excrement of various animals on the table where the statue of Sanqing is enshrined, and a figure sits there.

The complexion is pale, the eye sockets are sunken, the fingers are like curved hooks, and the teeth are like sharp blades outside the lips. Three feet beside him, all the grass and trees withered, and a cold breath came to his face.

Yin corpse, gathering yin and evil energy, a disgusting thing.

In a modern context, it is explained as zombies, but they will not jump and jump, and they will not be afraid of glutinous rice and black dog blood. They are infinitely powerful, their bodies are strong and they don't know pain, and the corpse poison on their bodies is also a first-class poison in the same realm, and a drop of blood of the corpse king in the infancy stage can pollute a radius of more than ten miles.

It is a kind of evil that is more difficult to deal with, and any adult strong man with strong blood like a ghost can be scared away. But even if the yin corpse is an ordinary killing mortal like killing a chicken, and it is infectious, it is easy to cause panic.

However, it is basically difficult for ordinary Yin corpses to reach the level of Jindan, and there is no corpse that does not cultivate the Dharma, unless there is some great opportunity, there is no hope for Jindan. Of course, there are also monks who are "halfway monks" who train themselves into yin corpses in order to prolong their lives.

Li Changsheng also studied it out of curiosity, and later was disappointed to find that the method of cultivating himself into a yin corpse might as well be buried under the Lethe River. Refining the body into a yin corpse can indeed prolong life, but the following years need to face the filth carried by the yin corpse all the time, and not many people can maintain a thousand years of sobriety in this state.

By the time he lost his mind, he was dead, and all that was left alive was a corpse.

If the old thing under Lethe River uses sleep to spend a long time, then the yin corpse is lying on the coals of fire and roasting.

He once experimented with a Yuan Infant Corpse King, assuming that he didn't use a special method to fall into a deep sleep, the Yuan Infant Corpse King could only remain awake for 10 consecutive years.

"Is the current environment enough to give birth to a Yin corpse?"

Li Yi looked at the yin corpse in front of him, since the vision in the Bodhi Realm, the concentration of aura in this world has indeed increased a lot, and it is still slowly increasing until now.

Take himself as an example, in the past, he used to sit at home and absorb the aura within a radius of dozens of miles to maintain the aura of the foundation building period at most, but now he has reached the peak of foundation building, if he expands the scope and strength of absorption, he can reach the Jindan period.

This is important for ordinary monks, at least they are already able to replenish a small amount of mana from the environment.

The increase in the concentration of aura is not all good, even if the things in the demon abyss in the previous life are also reincarnated, and demons and ghosts will be born naturally, which is a huge challenge for Shenzhou, which maintains a delicate balance.

Li Yi let out a trace of breath, the yin corpse in front of him trembled slightly, and suddenly opened his eyes, which were a pair of red bloodshot eyes, and in an instant, the surrounding scene suddenly changed, and countless hands emerged from the ground.

The temperature around him plummeted, and a layer of frost began to spread on the ground.

Magic? There is also a hint of Lethe.

Li Yi was slightly surprised, Yin corpses generally rely on their strong bodies, and very few are born with some special abilities. The one in front of him was obviously the very small part, but the aura contained on it made Li Yi suspect that it might be caused by the abnormal environment of the current heaven and earth.

They have lost their shackles because they have lost the Heavenly Dao, and the Yin Corpse may also have gained some kind of benefit because of this.

For example, the Yin corpse in front of it, even if the Tsukiji Monk looked at it, it might be frozen in place, assuming that it might be eaten by it no matter how cold it was left for a while.

It won't be the first, and it won't be the last.

But for Li Yi, it's the same, whether it's the Bodhi Realm, or the Demon Yuan, no matter how powerful you were in your previous life, you are just defeated by your subordinates.

Li Changsheng was able to win against them in the past, and now that he has lived for more than 5,000 years, he can naturally win against his former self, and his enemy is only himself.

And it just so happens that you will always be stronger than you once were.

The Yin corpse opened its mouth suddenly, and its dry skin was instantly cracked, revealing its miserable white teeth. Following the Yin Corpse's instinctive desire for the living, he threw himself forward.

As it fluttered, the shadows behind it surged like ocean waves.

A rancid smell came to his face, Li Yi's face was as usual, he didn't raise his eyelids, and his right hand was raised and leaned forward.

"Daoist, it's time to rest in peace."

The palms of the hands are white and slender, and the thunder light flickers on the fingertips, and the evil is retreated.

The slightest thunder, all the filth, all the coldness, all the ominousness turned to powder. The corpse of the Yin dissolves into tiny particles like sand lapped by the waves, and with it many other illusions.

Thunder is originally the most yang thing in the world, and in the face of these yin and evil things, the little five thunder Zhengfa is more effective than the Buddha statue of the monk.

Everything was calm, and the Taoist temple was not damaged in the slightest, and it was not as cold as before.

Li Yi exhaled, and a wisp of wind rolled up the white ash on the ground and sent it back to the hole outside the Taoist temple, the soil healed on its own, and the only traces left were the withered grass and trees around it.

Glancing at the Taoist temple again, he quietly glanced at the Sanqing statue a few times, and the scorched black traces extended to its feet.

Turned around and left the Taoist temple and walked into the forest path.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes

As if everything was really completely calm, suddenly the idol cracked, and the palm-sized stone shard in his right eye fell, revealing the inside of the idol.

Not a stone, but a mass of scarlet flesh, contracted and stretched, and a black cracked eye on it.

The weird eyes are full of fear, and it is clear that it is the existence that makes people fear

It had some doubts, but the moment the lightning flashed, it knew that what it feared most had happened.

That person was also reincarnated.

No, I have to go back to the Abyss!

All the fear turned into this thought, and he had worked hard to stand out from the countless "roommates", and finally crawled out of that place, out of the cage. I thought that at this point, the dragon entered the sea, and Dapeng spread its wings and competed for the opportunity of the first opening of the world.

As soon as he broke away, he came to this temple, and he happened to have a dry corpse that had not rotted for more than ten years, which contained a little yin qi, and then he was sacrificed into a yin corpse.

Such a wonderful start, but I didn't expect to meet that evil ghost on the second day!

The fear from the true spirit made it no longer think about any great chances, and at this moment, the demon abyss that he hated was simply heaven, warm as a home.

Although the Demon Abyss was now pressed in the depths of Lethe, coupled with the huge population of this world, the chaotic mental distractions were surging like a torrent, making it difficult for them to escape. But at least it's safe, at least not that person is there.

The world without Him is heaven.

Fortunately, just now I decisively burned my true spirit and tried my best to hide my breath, so he shouldn't have noticed me.

"Sure enough, you rats have also been reincarnated."

A calm voice suddenly sounded, and the fear in the idol's eyes reached its peak, almost condensing into substance.

Before it could react, it heard a roar from the sky, and a thunderbolt fell.

Bang!!!

The idol exploded, and the flesh and blood inside turned to ashes, and fear made it unable to resist or resist.

Li Yi, who was walking on the mountain road, glanced back slightly, and then continued to walk down, and suddenly a white-headed langur ran out from the corner.

It was holding a bunch of mushrooms in its hand, and when it saw Li Yi, it immediately showed a flattering smile, and very consciously put the mushrooms into the basket. Then he pulled his trouser legs, pointed in a certain direction, and kept calling.

Monkeys, primates, have significantly higher IQs than other animals.

"Monkey wine?"

Li Yi thought for a while, and recalled that the monkey wine he drank in his previous life tasted really good, and he didn't know how the monkey wine in this world was?

He nodded slightly: "Yes." ”

The white-headed langur jumped up excitedly and clapped its hands constantly.

Leaving the mountain trail, do not enter the secluded woods, the birds and cicadas are chirping, and finally come to a large banyan tree.

A group of monkeys hangs from the treetops, and the white-headed langur is clearly the leader of the pack and is welcomed by all the monkeys.

Some monkeys plucked banana leaves and spread them on the ground, some monkeys brought all kinds of wild fruits, some monkeys put the picked mushrooms into his basket, and soon the monkeys put their own feast.

Li Yi sat on the banana leaves, and the Monkey King rolled up a cup with the leaves and took out a cup of monkey wine from the cave, with a hint of spirituality on it.

He took the monkey wine offered by the Monkey King's hands and tasted it carefully, his mouth was sour, and the aftertaste was sweet.

It should be added honey, spirit fruit, nectar of banana trees.

"Brewed with spirit fruit, not bad, not bad."

The Monkey King was even happier when he was complimented, and let out a long howl, and the deep roar startled the birds, and the monkeys around him who had not turned on their minds also chirped. Although it is a roar, it is not chaotic, and the monkey king seems to be singing a song that belongs to them.

The mountain apes can't stop crying, and the immortals drink to be happy.

Li Yi was slightly drunk, raised his hand and wiped it in his ear, the guzheng flew out and fell in front of him, and the long sound of the piano spread, echoing in the mountains.

Drink with people and have fun with monkeys.

This is where the joy of exploring the countryside lies.

——

On the mountain trail, a familiar figure is walking up, these two people are Li Lili and Tang Huiyun.

After the two of them sent their friends to Li Yi's house, they put down their heavy backpacks and turned back, not climbing the mountain but looking for Li Yi.

It was too dangerous to leave him alone in the mountains, and if something happened, I was afraid that it would be more than lucky.

When they walked to the Taoist temple, all they saw were the collapsed ruins, and the sun shining on the ruins had an inexplicable sense of sacredness.

Tang Huiyun took out her mobile phone to take a photo, and then said suspiciously: "We came all the way, why didn't we see your brother?" Is there any other way? ”

"It shouldn't be." Li Lili frowned slightly, and suddenly had a bad premonition, took out her mobile phone and looked at it, there was no signal here.

"Let's go back and find out."

The two returned the same way, shouting Li Yi as they walked.

"Brother! Where's it! ”

"Brother Yi!"

Suddenly, Tang Huiyun had overwhelmed grass on a mountain road, extending all the way into the dense forest, as if someone had stepped on it.

"Lily, look here, will your brother go inside?"

"Check it out."

Li Lili walked in without hesitation, it was very dangerous to be in danger alone in the mountains, even if the cold water was not a deep mountain and old forest. When I was a child, I often heard that someone from someone family got lost in the mountains, and when they found it, they were cold.

Li Yi may have picked mushrooms and got lost.

"Wait, I'll make a mark." Tang Huiyun took out a bundle of colored ropes from her pocket, and her preparations for this mountain climb were very sufficient. After all, if you don't go to a developed scenic spot to play, you can't rule out the possibility of getting lost.

The two of them walked all the way inside along the traces of Li Yi's walking, and after walking one hundred and eighty steps, they suddenly heard the faint sound of the piano.

"Piano?" Li Lili looked up suspiciously, "Huiyun, did you hear that?" ”

Tang Huiyun suddenly perked up, and said excitedly: "I heard it, it seems to be the sound of the piano before." Playing the piano in this deep mountain and old forest, you must be an immortal! ”

"Still thinking about your immortal, I want to find my brother first than this."

Li Lili quickened her pace, maybe this piano sound was made by Li Yi, such as a leg that was injured, and she used her mobile phone to make a sound for help.

Hopefully I'm wrong.

The two walked for a few more minutes, and the sound of the piano got closer and closer, and the bushes in front of them suddenly opened up.

They saw a large banyan tree, under which there were dozens of monkeys, and a figure sat in it, like the stars holding the moon, as if all the monkeys were kneeling in front of him.

Deep in the mountains and old forests, drink monkey wine and watch the monkeys dance. It's weird, it's amazing, it's beyond their knowledge.

"Brother?" Li Lili recognized Li Yi at the first time, but she was a little unsure, but her appearance was very unfamiliar.

It's like just waking up a year ago, and it feels like she's isolated from the world, very lonely, and even standing next to it feels like she's in two worlds.

Originally, she thought that this was her own delusion, or that Li Yi had just woken up and was not familiar with the world in 10 years, so it would be like this. Later, as Li Yi gradually became familiar with the current world, that sense of alienation disappeared.

And now Li Yi is even more deserted, as if he has some kind of quality, indescribable, indescribable, just very distant, as if he is looking at history.

That's right, history, a sense of vicissitudes.

The previous sense of alienation was not unfamiliar, nor was it uncomfortable.

"I'm super, I'm an immortal." Tang Huiyun was a little short-sighted, obviously she didn't see clearly that it was Li Yi, she shouted like this, and all the monkeys turned their heads to look.

Li Yi spotted them early in the morning, and felt that after they got close, he took them into his ears before he finished playing the song.

He got up from the ground and turned back into the unremarkable, military coat man, and the scene just now seemed to be fake.

Li Yi walked towards them with a basket of mushrooms.

"Let's go, please eat mountain delicacies at noon."

His voice seemed to have some kind of magic, which made the two of them unconsciously obey, and the same was true of Tang Huiyun, who had just noticed that it was Li Yi's disappointed face, and Li Lili couldn't ask at all when she was full of doubts.

I wanted to ask many times, but when I met Li Yi's calm eyes, I couldn't say anything.

I don't know how long this state lasted, and it wasn't until they drove back to the city in the evening that Li Lili and Tang Huiyun, who were sitting in the back row, came to their senses.

Looking at the sunset outside the window, Tang Huiyun suddenly said, "Lily, I think we found it." ”

Guo Wen, who was in the co-pilot, asked curiously, "What did you find?" ”

"Immortals! Lily's brother is an immortal! Tang Huiyun said categorically, recalling the scene at that time, as well as Li Yi's temperament, for some reason it perfectly matched the immortal in her imagination.

"Poofhahahaha." Guo Wen couldn't help laughing, "Just like him, I'm still an immortal, so wouldn't I be an immortal emperor?" ”

"Humph! The grass and trees are fools, and the immortals are hidden in the city. You think you're running around every day with a broken luck like you. ”

Tang Huiyun didn't plan to argue with this idiot, and even if Du Ting invited her in the future, she wouldn't come out to play with this idiot again.

remembered that he was still pretending to be in front of Li Yi before, like a clown jumping off the beam. If he knew that the sound of the piano in the mountain was played by Li Yi, Tang Huiyun would be embarrassed for him, if he found a bridge and jumped down and died.

Although Tang Huiyun didn't see Li Yi with the qin, he was holding a guzheng before, so he was sure that Li Yi sent it, at least she thought so.

"Lily, no wonder so many big people came to your house before, I guess it must have something to do with your brother."

"This" Li Lili looked suspicious, remembering that at the banquet where Li Yi woke up before, there seemed to be a few big people who came that day.

Tang Huiyun continued to open his mind and said: "Or your family is a family of cultivators or something, the kind that passes on men and not women, go back and ask your father, remember to take me to cultivate immortals with you when the time comes!" ”

Since the Da Lei Yinshu incident in Florida, she has firmly believed that the transcendent must exist, and it is no joke to come to find immortals.

Li Lili returned home, lay on the bed and thought about it for a long time, her mind was messy.

Suddenly, she looked at the palm of her right hand, and Li Yi's words sounded in her ears.

When you're in danger, call me by name.

"Brother? Li Yi? ”

Li Lili tried to shout twice from her opponent, but there was no reaction, and a trace of embarrassment came to her heart.

At this time, the phone rang suddenly, and at a glance, it was the number in the state, and there was no note.

"Hey."

【Lily】

The sound was so unpleasant that it looked like fingers scratching on a blackboard, and she suspected it was tuned to be deliberately disgusting.

"Who are you?" Li Lili frowned slightly.

[It's me. Wang Sheng, Lili, are you angry with me? I was busy practicing during this time and didn't call you, so I made you angry and blocked me, I really love to be angry]

"Are you sick,."

Li Lili, who has always been a very reserved lady, scolded directly, and hung up after scolding without any hesitation.

She had long understood that she didn't have to give him a good face to deal with such a fool.
