The story begins in the dark barren mountains, around the noisy campfire,

A magnificent world has opened......

In the spring season, the weather is still cold. The night breeze in the mountains and forests whined, blowing into the main hall of the Taoist temple, which only had half of the gate left, but was stumbled by the lively atmosphere inside.

In the middle of the main hall, there was a raging bonfire, and more than ten men gathered around, drinking wine and eating meat, laughing at each other, sweating profusely, and it was very lively.

There was a black-faced man inside, sitting first below the top and the loudest. He took a sip of the spirited wine and roared with the strength of the wine:

"With Brother Xuanqing here, our brother's one-year business is worth ten years. This year's situation is better than the previous year, everyone is earning a lot of money, and it is just around the corner!"

The hall responded with a bang, and the atmosphere became even more enthusiastic. The black-faced man laughed, took another bite of the gourd, and turned his head to see that the "Brother Xuanqing" in his mouth didn't seem to hear the fart just now, and still put on his usual posture, wearing a yellow robe, his eyelids seemed to be closed, and he pinched the trick, which looked unfathomable......

The black-faced man sighed in his heart, but he still put on a respectful look on his face, and greeted: "Big brother?"

Hearing someone greet him, Xuan Qing opened his eyes, his hair was black, his skin was bright, his expression and demeanor were unhurried, very imposing, he hummed: "What's the matter?"

The black-faced man salivated and said, "Big brother, let's still make offerings to Lao Lu this year?"

Xuan Qing glanced at him: "Except for Steward Lu, who can talk in the mansion?"

The black-faced man shook his head loudly: "If you want me to say, the eyes surnamed Lu grow on the door of the head, and it is the most difficult to speak, it is better to go to the boss of the Chang family, this person is in charge of the shrimp and whiskers, and the relationship is good, and if you take the ordinary past, you can get the price of the best grade, where can you find this kind of good thing?"

The Taoist glanced at him and sneered: "I haven't seen it, haven't you?" Chang Rong's guy has a large amount of money in every year, and he has a bad heart, you have to pay tribute to him, how much do you need to feed him? Besides, that guy has fixed a few groups of regular customers, and they divide them every year, earning quickly and steadily, and they don't even bother to skim the corners of their eyes for us individual customers......

Speaking of this, Xuan Qing paused, and said, "Have you found a way?"

"No, no, it's just to watch the big brother and the guy surnamed Lu fight, it's very hard, we can't look at it......"

Saying something disgusting even to himself, the black-faced man retracted his head and scolded in his heart: "Bullshit, it's not that you are counting on the two tricks surnamed Lu, mother, even the godfather is called, why don't you sell your mother?"

He hated and feared the big brother who took the lead...... hated this person for robbing him of his original position as the leader, but he was afraid that this person was already the pinnacle of mundane cultivation with a clear mind, and he also had very exquisite talisman methods, and killing him was like killing a chicken.

The two of them were intriguing here, but a person came in from outside, shouting, "There's a deal!"

In the main hall, everyone's spirits were lifted. It's a cold day, isn't this year's profit market going to open?

Xuanqing was still calm, thought about it, narrowed his eyes and asked, "What's the situation?"

Outside, the wind was rubbing his hands and sighing, and when he heard the words, he immediately bent down and said: "The one who runs the single gang, the road is steady, and the side can't see clearly." ”

Xuanqing was a little dissatisfied, glanced at it, and saw that the person was quite respectful, so he just groaned: "The moon is dark and the wind is high, and you dare to walk alone, you are not stupid and bold, or you are a capable ...... Kuroko, you blow him up, listen to the ring. ”

"Great!"

The black-faced man grinned and looked around, and the people next to him didn't need him to say, they all put their swords in the place where they could take advantage of them, and when they saw that the situation was wrong, they could react in time. Only Xuanqing put on that unfathomable posture again, and the hall was quiet for a while.

Everyone said that it was a Taoist temple, but in fact, it was a lonely house, more like a land temple...... It didn't take long for everyone in the temple to hear footsteps coming from outside. Then there was a knock on the door of the temple, and the person who came was very polite, and his voice was low and pleasant:

"Is it convenient inside?"

The one in the hall was not very polite, and the black-faced man shouted in a rough voice: "Where did you come from!"

"Wander at night to collect medicine and find a place to rest. ”

The black-faced man's face fell, and everyone else sighed. Judging from their experience, this is a small loach at most, and there may be a day when they will eat fat, but tonight it is destined to be no harvest.

Seeing the lazy appearance of these people, Xuan Qing opened his eyes and glared, and the black-faced man was excited, and laughed busily: "Collecting medicine......? Come in!"

The man outside thanked him again and pushed the door in. The mountain wind blew in with his figure, causing the bonfire in the hall to shake, and everyone cast their eyes in unison, and then they were all stunned.

The black-faced man reacted the fastest, he lengthened his voice, and said with a smile: "Well, it turned out to be a fellow practitioner...... It's still a little white face!"

As soon as the strange words came out, the hall burst into laughter, and the spirit that had just sunk was raised again, and the momentum was quite strong.

No wonder the black-faced man said so, the person who came was indeed a handsome Taoist priest, and he didn't look very old, the so-called face like a full moon, red lips and white teeth needless to say, just the skin that was more delicate than the girl's child, so that these rough men who were used to the wind and sun could see the hot eyes, and a few of them had pickled thoughts, and even moved their brains to other places......

This handsome Taoist priest is quite tall, and he also carries a long sword on his shoulder, but he habitually bows his back slightly, and looks very honest and shy.

The black-faced man saw this scene, and he was even more sure that this was a chick, there was no oil and water for the time being, and he didn't think it was interesting, but since Xuanqing became the eldest brother, he had always pursued the method of "killing mistakes, not letting go", he could only cough and signal his companions to slow down, and he continued according to the familiar routine:

"Since you are a fellow Taoist, haven't you come up to see Xuanqing Immortal Chief? This is an immortal family with great magical powers, and if something leaks out of his fingers, it will be enough for you, a little Taoist, to enjoy it for a lifetime!"

"Zheng Da, why is there so much noise?"

Since the handsome Taoist priest entered the door, Xuanqing still spoke for the first time, although it was a dumb gesture, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the dozen or so people around the bonfire all kept their mouths shut in unison, there was really some threat of prohibition, and there was also a different kind of atmosphere permeating.

Next, it's Xuanqing's play time.

Seeing that more than ten big men were shocked by Xuanqing's words, the handsome Taoist priest also breathed a sigh of relief, and his expression became respectful, he took a step forward and saluted: "Scattered people Yu Ci, I have seen Xuanqing Immortal ......"

Xuan Qing opened his eyes at this time, swept Yu Ci's body, lowered his eyes again, and spoke calmly:

"Did the little Taoist go into the Heavenly Rift Valley to pick shrimp and whiskers?"

Yu Ci replied yes.

"Wealth is moving. The White House may not have any bad intentions, but the Heavenly Rift Valley is really not a good place, and you ordinary people must also do what you can. ”

Yu Ci was stunned for a moment, and then said respectfully: "Please ask the immortal chief for advice." ”

Xuan Qing Immortal Elder was very satisfied with his attitude, and said with a smile: "The son can be taught." If you want to know what people do, you have to plan before you act, have you been to this rift valley before, do you know what kind of place it is? What are the taboos of picking shrimp and whiskers?"

"The Rift Valley is thousands of miles away from home, and the kid hasn't been there yet. ”

Yu Ci's expression became more and more respectful: "I have only heard rumors that the terrain there is steep and there are many wild beasts. The shrimp beard grass is parasitic on the big tree under the cliff of the canyon, the same color as the branches, surrounding it, only when the wind blows, it is possible to distinguish it with the naked eye, it is very difficult to find...... By the way, the deacon of the White House also reminded that this grass cannot be cut with gold and iron, nor can it be stored with wooden things, so he also sent a stone box dedicated to preserving shrimp and whisker grass. ”

Xuan Qing stroked his beard and smiled: "I have some understanding, but you missed the most important one." ”

At this point, his expression suddenly became stern: "Do you know where to go under the Heavenly Rift Valley?"

"This, I don't know ......"

"You don't know. Don't say it's you, how many people in the whole world know? That is, I have a bit of Taoism, and I venture down to investigate, only then do I know that under the clouds and mist, the dark abyss is deep, and it is no longer the weather of this world, but it leads directly to the Yellow Spring of the Underworld, among which there are countless ghosts and demons!"

Yu Ci's eyes widened immediately: This ...... It's a little mysterious.

He didn't deliberately hide his thoughts, and Xuan Qing could naturally see it. The Taoist priest smiled slightly, turned his palm and took out a spherical thing for Yu Ci to see.

Separated by a distance, there was a campfire jumping in the middle, and Yu Ci narrowed his eyes to see what it was. When that thing was clearly presented, Yu Ci's brows twitched, just because it was not a ball, but a head!

The object has apparently been specially treated, only the size of a fist, and has a grayish-green color throughout. Placed on the palm of Xuanqing's palm, its appearance texture structure is intact, and because of this, Yu Ci can clearly see the fangs on the lips of the thing's face, the extraordinarily high forehead, and the blood-red eyes in the deep sunken eye sockets.

"This is a head that Lao Dao saved after going deep into the Yellow Spring of the Hell and killing the monster, and talked about it as a souvenir. Don't look at this thing only so little, this is the old Tao deliberately used a secret method to refine, when the old Tao killed it, this head alone, it has the size of a grinding plate, and the body is even more ...... with this Taoist view."

Yu Ci's face finally changed, and Xuan Qing was very satisfied when he saw his expression, so he put the head away and slowed down his tone:

"Of course, these demons and monsters are very difficult to climb up...... Generally speaking, under the Heavenly Rift Valley, there is the 'Two Realms Monument' placed by the Supreme Dao Venerable to suppress the underworld, and on the upper floor, there is an immortal forbidden magic array arranged by the immortal families of the past dynasties, which is enough to resist hundreds of millions of demons. ”

Yu Ci just sighed, and Xuan Qing said with a straight face: "It's just that there is no perfect arrangement in the world, the divine monument personally placed by Daozun, and those immortal forbidden magic arrays, although they can suppress those fierce demons and ghosts, there are always one or two fish that have escaped from the net...... Naturally, you have to climb up from the bottom of the Heavenly Rift Valley! I see that you are also a practitioner, but if you encounter those demons and monsters, you are afraid that you will be more than lucky!"

What else could Yu Ci say, he only said: "Please ask the immortal master to show the way." ”

Xuan Qing sighed: "The Heavenly Rift Valley is not a good land, but it is also remarkable that you can advance despite difficulties. Anyway, the old way has been practicing for many years, through the way of heaven and man, the most like to carry the latter, now to see is fate, I will give you a spirit talisman, the right to use as a talisman. ”

After saying that, he waved his sleeves, and a rune paper flew out, and it didn't fall slowly until Yu Ci's eyes. After Yu Ci caught it, before he could take a closer look, Xuanqing said again:

"Picking a thousand shrimp and whisker grass is not as simple as imagined, although there are spiritual runes, it may not be able to protect them thoroughly. It's a pity that I still have mundane affairs and can't be separated...... In this way, one person counts the short, and the other counts the long, and my juniors also went to the Heavenly Rift Valley to collect medicine, and if you contact them a lot, you will always be a ...... to take care of."

When Yu Ci heard this, his gaze swept over the faces of the people around the campfire. At this moment, including the black-faced man who had just spoken ill of him, all showed smiling faces, but unfortunately, the smiles were so stiff.

Yu Ci shook his head and didn't respond immediately, just looked at the spirit rune in his hand. On the bright yellow rune paper, the word "Jing" of a seal script was written with cinnabar, and the twists and turns were not good-looking, but when the fingers touched, there was a trace of coolness in the fingertips, and it was also a little good, after thinking about it, he said:

"Purifying the Heart Mantra?"

Xuan Qingzheng was surprised by Yu Ci's reaction, and when he heard this, his face changed slightly, and he secretly made gestures at the moment to make his companions vigilant. At the same time, he sighed: "Good eyesight......"

Halfway through his words, he almost bit off his tongue. Not only him, but the group of people gathered in front of the bonfire from the black-faced man next to him, one by one, dumbfounded, and forced to put on a kind smile, collapsed one by one with the prominent and shining light in the hall.

Yu Ci didn't do anything remarkable, he just stretched out his left hand, raised his middle two fingers, and painted in the void. However, with the movement of his fingers, a slender pale blue light silk appeared out of thin air, turning up and down, and in the blink of an eye, it was a rune.

This rune is also a "static" character seal script, vaguely similar to the strokes on the spirit rune given by Xuanqing, but more streamlined. What's more, after the rune is completed, it is suspended in the air, sprinkled with clear light, and it has its own miraculous......

It was the turn of the peaks, under such a wonderful scenery, the hall fell into an even more eerie silence, and after a long time, someone knew how to speak, it was the black-faced man.

"Induce qi into a talisman, and the aura is attached!"

Although he opened his mouth, the voice was more like a chicken being pulled by the neck, almost out of tune.

Yu Ci glanced at him and replied: "Good eyesight!"

There was a chaotic sound, and nine out of ten of the people around the bonfire stood up, but they didn't want to do anything, but they all got out of the way, and looked at Yu Ci's eyes, which were already in awe. And the black-faced man who had spoken evil words before sat in place in a daze, and for a long time, he suddenly jumped up, turned over and tried to escape, but his feet were weak, he fell and crawled, and he trembled and couldn't stand up again.

In this group of people, only Xuanqing is still stable, but he also has a needle under his buttocks, which is very uncomfortable. He coughed, slowly stood up, and tried to maintain a calm posture: "This, uh, fellow Daoist, I didn't know ...... before"

As soon as he opened his mouth, his true form was revealed, and he didn't speak as neatly as a black-faced man, Yu Ci ignored him, and walked straight over the fire.

At this time, his back was straight, the original figure was already quite tall, it seemed to have grown an inch taller, the corners of his lips were slightly pursed, and shallow traces were carved on his face......

Facing such a person, Xuan Qing didn't even dare to let go of a fart, immediately moved his seat, and stood aside in a very restrained manner, not to mention the people around him, trembling, walking on thin ice, for fear that if he breathed heavily, he would invite disaster.

Yu Ci sat down on the top, and felt that sitting down like this, the sword on his back was a burden, so he untied it and rested it on his lap, his movements were unhurried and calm. Xuanqing stood behind him, but he didn't even look at it, his eyes swept over the faces of the rest of the people, and he said with a smile: "The mountain road is boring, make a joke with you, if there is any rudeness, don't blame." ”

As soon as he said this, there was a sound of exhalation in the hall, followed by a noisy shout:

"Where, where, Shangxian is too polite. ”

"Yes, where did the immortal come from......

"It's because we offended the immortals. ”

A litter of people rushed to ask for guilt, lest their attitude be insincere and evil the master in front of him who could induce qi into a talisman.

Yu Ci listened with a smile, showing full patience, and when the surrounding voices weakened, he tapped his fingers on the hilt of the sword, making a muffled sound, and said slowly: "Yes, I was joking with you, but I am afraid that you were not just joking with me before!"

As soon as the words came out, everyone was silent in unison, and the hall suddenly felt cold, penetrating people's muscles and bones. The ever-accumulating chill is like an iceberg that weighs on everyone's heads, and may collapse at any time. The little courage that everyone had left was also worn away by this invisible oppression.

The smile on Yu Ci's face disappeared, he no longer looked at anyone, his eyes just stared at the bonfire, and said softly: "Self-proclaimed immortals, cheated and deceived." That is, this seat is here, and if someone else changes, how will you stay?"

The so-called "Xuanqing Shangxian" couldn't hold back that little bit at this time, stepped forward in one step, bent down sharply, his movements were too big, and the so-called "monster head" that had just been put into his sleeve slid out with a grunt, and just rolled to Yu Ci's side.

Xuanqing couldn't take care of this, and bowed again and again, just to save his own life: "Shangxian Mingjian, Shangxian Mingjian." The disciple deceived in order to take some shrimp and whisker grass from those medicine pickers, and that's all, he would never dare to make money and kill him......"

He begged for mercy here, but Yu Ci was more interested in the "monster head". He picked it up, put it in his hand and played with it, taking all of Xuanqing's words as wind in his ears.

The more this happened, the more scared Xuan Qing became. Looking at the long sword on his lap, although it is wrapped in an ordinary leather scabbard, it is unremarkable, and he knows that it is not a magic sword that slashes people a hundred miles away?

As long as there is a flash of cold light......

This thought became heavier and more real, so crowded that his heart beat like thunder, and before he knew it, his knees weakened, and he actually knelt down. With just this kneeling, the prestige he had raised in the gang in the past two years was in vain, but now that he was in this situation, he collapsed as soon as he insisted, and he wanted to distinguish again, but he was already speechless, and his eyes were about to burst into tears.

Seeing this, Yu Ci frowned: "Junior who is not in the stream, killing you is still a dirty hand in this seat." ”

Xuanqing is not a fool, he was overjoyed when he heard this, and raised his head, but before he could see Yu Ci's expression clearly, he heard a single tone smashing in his ears: "Get out!"

didn't exert much force, but when this sound fell in everyone's ears, it was like a muffled thunder in their heads, and the heavenly spirit cover was gurgling. Xuanqing was the first to react, and then kowtowed heavily, jumped up, pulled his legs and ran, and the rest of the people were in a daze at first, and when they came back to their senses, they only hated their father and mother for having two legs, and in the nonsense of "thank you for the grace of immortals and don't kill", they rushed out of the door like a swarm.

Yu Ci has been staring at Xuanqing, this person is in good hands, very fast, as soon as he came out of the Taoist temple, he disappeared in a few vertical jumps, as for the remaining people, they were crowded, until the gate of the Taoist temple was broken, they all escaped, and after a while, there was no sound.

After a while, after confirming that those people had all fled far away, Yu Ci's hand loosened, and the monster's head fell to the ground. This handsome Taoist priest wiped his hand on his clothes, and then wiped off a layer of sweat on his forehead, felt the sweat on his hands, and suddenly laughed loudly, and the sound shook the roof beams, looking very happy.

In the laughter, the pure heart talisman hanging in the air slammed and scattered, turning into several streamers, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
