168: Convention
A charcoal fire, a lamp, a sick man, lying on a chaise longue, dressed in thick clothes and a sheepskin blanket, like a man who is about to die at any moment, but a pair of eyes exude a terrifying gaze.
He seemed to want to see Zhao Yingyun's inner thoughts, as if he wanted to see Zhao Yingyun's inner thoughts.
At this moment, Zhao Chengyun also felt the power in his gaze, this is a person whose cultivation is not low, among the foundation building monks, Zhao Zhiyun rarely sees the kind of person who can threaten him, but the sick grocery store shopkeeper in front of him made him feel a trace of extraordinary.
His words were as if he were asking as much as he was agitating.
"You just have to tell me who he is." Zhao Yingyun said coldly, he didn't know what this person in front of him meant, just sell the news to earn spirit stones, this is a bit too much.
"Okay, since the guest has already paid and wants to know, then I'll tell you."
"When there are eighty-one sons and seventy-two daughters in the saint today, this person is the forty-third son of the saint, and he is practicing the "Seven Changes of True Blood", practicing this method, every time he integrates into a true spiritual bloodline, he can be promoted to a realm, and the White Lady and Zhuang Xinyan in the Snake Mountain are his goals." The shopkeeper tugged at his sheepskin blanket and said slowly.
As he spoke, his eyes were still staring at Zhao Yingyun, as if he wanted to see if the person in front of him who was very generous with the spirit stone would be afraid.
He had seen many people who were angry at first, wanting to hit and kill someone, and immediately deflated after hearing the other party's background.
When Zhao Chengyun was reading in the mountains, he read a book that introduced various cultivation exercises on this land, including this "Seven Changes of True Blood", which was developed when Emperor Wu of Zhou was there.
Because when Emperor Wu of Zhou conquered the Demon Domain and the Kingdom of God, he harvested a lot of demon blood and divine blood.
So Emperor Wu of Zhou created this "Seven Changes of True Blood" according to the exercises of his predecessors.
This 'true blood' has the same effect as the 'true evil', which is integrated into the human body, generating talismans and condensing the dharma.
After many demon spirits grow up, they have cultivated the magic in the bloodline of their bodies into supernatural spells.
And this true blood is the need for this bloodline.
Zhao Yingyun thought that Zhuang Xinyan could transform into a cat when she was still in the realm of Xuanguang.
This is the awakening of true blood, but it is being targeted.
"Don't tell me about this person's background, just tell me this person's name, and the appearance will do." Zhao Yingyun said.
"Zhou Xing, the word to see the ancestor, his word is to be the saint today, thinking that he is very similar to the founding ancestor, so he takes it as the ancestor." The shopkeeper said.
"Okay, I'd like to see you too." Zhao Yingyun said.
"There is a person by his side, named Si Songnian, a monk of the Purple Mansion, who protects him every step of the way, this is the royal faction by his side, and every prince has one by his side. In addition to him, there are also guards he has recruited himself, all of whom are building foundations. ”
"And you, alone." The shopkeeper said.
After Zhao Chengyun heard this, he sighed in his heart, if there was really a Purple Mansion monk who protected him every inch, then he had no choice, not only the Purple Mansion monk, but also other foundation building monks, then there would be no flaws.
Zhao Yingyun turned around and left.
As he walked by the door, the shopkeeper behind him suddenly said, "Do you need me to introduce you to a few friends?" ”
Zhao Yingyun stopped, turned around and squinted slightly at the sick young shopkeeper, and said, "You dare to kill the prince?" ”
"I don't dare, isn't that what you want to do?" The shopkeeper said: "I know a few people who have a big enmity with Si Songnian. ”
Zhao Yingyun had already understood what he meant, and the other party's meaning was obvious, that is, to help him solve the guards around the forty-third prince Zhou Xing, and he was to solve the prince.
This person is so bold that he actually wants to kill the prince.
"You are so bold, aren't you afraid of punishing the Nine Clans?" Zhao Yingyun asked with a sneer, he saw very clearly that this person wanted to use himself.
"Those who have nine clans are naturally afraid, but if there are no nine clans, what is there to fear." The shopkeeper said.
Zhao Yingyun turned around and walked back to the shopkeeper, looking at him condescendingly, staring into his eyes.
There was fire in his eyes, and the insights and delusions in his body were condensed in his eyes.
The face of the shopkeeper lying on the chair became blurry in his eyes, and the originally clear and pale face seemed to have become a cloud.
The clouds and mist obscured his vision, and the light in his eyes flashed again, and when the clouds opened, he was about to see the 'true face' revealed under the clouds, a strange face as painted by pen and ink.
The face was painted on a white mask.
Those eyes obviously seemed to be painted on a mask, but at this time, Zhao Chengyun saw that there was anger in them.
After being in this grocery store for so long, it was the first time he had seen such a strong emotion in this man's eyes.
"If you don't want your eyes, I can dig them out for you."
He sat up, his voice cold as the winter wind.
Zhao Yingyun took a chair from the side, sat down instead, looked at the shopkeeper, and said, "What is your relationship with that white lady." ”
Although Zhao Yingyun didn't see the other party's true face, he still felt a strange aura when the other party's dot-like eyes were surging with anger.
If he's not mistaken, it's demonic energy.
There will always be a difference between the qi on the human body and the qi on the demon, although the more advanced it is, the more the aura between the human and the demon will converge, but at the lower level, there is a fishy smell on the creatures in the wilderness.
If it is a herbivorous creature, it will be a grass and tree atmosphere, and they will be closer to nature.
But no matter how close to nature, there is no lack of the fishy smell on them.
And Zhao Yingyun also felt the cold aura on his body.
The shopkeeper seemed to suppress the anger in his heart, looked at Zhao Yingyun, and did not answer for a while.
"Killing the prince, that's a big crime, why do you want to kill the prince." Zhao Yingyun continued to ask.
"It's up to you, if you don't dare, go out." The shopkeeper said.
Zhao Yingyun didn't want to go, he said: "If you want to do big things, you must have a certain understanding, I don't have any grudges with that prince, but my friend is struggling because of others, so he is a little interested, what about you?" Why are you? ”
"I'm just spending so many spirit stones to introduce you to the matchmaking just because you're a guest." The shopkeeper seemed to have suppressed his anger, and lay back on the chaise longue and covered himself with a sheepskin blanket.
"No, you're not, the place where I grew up makes me very sensitive to some emotions, and I can feel your anger and hatred for that prince, even though you hide it well." Zhao Yingyun said.
The shopkeeper looked at Zhao Yingyun silently, and only said after a while: "Look at your face, you are the ability of the weak, what ability do you have and dare to stay here." ”
Obviously, he wanted to see what Zhao Yingyun had, and then decided what to do later.
Zhao Yingyun didn't speak, but stretched out his finger and pinched it in the firelight of the stove next to him, and a little firelight was caught in his fingertips, and a little red flame was shrouded in the finger of the sword, subtle but rich.
He pointed the sword at the shopkeeper's point.
At this moment, the shopkeeper felt that the flames on the sword fingers that Zhao Yingyun had lit turned into thousands of fires, stabbing towards the earth, covering the sky.
It was an illusion, but yet it was so real, he felt the heat, the will to burn everything.
However, he was still not at ease, in his opinion, many people were relatively high, but the level of fighting and the skills of spells were very bad, so he pointed out the same.
The fingers he pointed out were crystal clear, but in the boundless firelight, it suddenly turned into a snake, the snake's mouth opened wide, and a huge force was born out of thin air, but the sky full of fire was ingested into the snake's mouth.
But the snake's tail was a flip, falling from the sky, like a jade rope, and went towards Zhao Yingyun.
Many people because of the number of fights, so the time of the fight is less flexible, when their spells are restrained, and they are counterattacked, they will be in a hurry, ten things at most play a fifty or sixty percent.
However, the moment the snake's tail like a rope was wrapped around Zhao Yingyun, it was empty, only a piece of flame dispersed, and it instantly turned into a wave of fire, surging towards the mouth of the snake head.
Another spell appeared: "Burn!" ”
With this incantation, he felt the flame change, the light of the fire changed like a needle, and he instantly retracted his hand, and the huge snake head disappeared.
The flames disappeared at the same time.
In this room, the vibrating light of the extremely small range quickly dissipated.
Zhao Yingyun is still sitting there, and the shopkeeper is still lying there.
It's just that the shopkeeper looked at his right finger eating, and the tips of his crystal fingers were a little red, as if they had been burned.
"Flame, good." The shopkeeper said.
"If you just have this ability, then I'm leaving, then who can lead the purple mansion next to the prince?" Zhao Yingyun said.
"Me." The shopkeeper said.
"You, you can't do this, Purple Mansion Monk, it's useless to have a few more like you." Zhao Yingyun thought of his Xun Shi, thought of Yu Chenguang, and thought of Ma Sanhu, he felt that if he and the person in front of him, facing the Purple Mansion, let alone leading away, it would be good to be alive.
"Don't worry, I can lead them away, but after I lead the Purple Mansion, can you kill the other party when there is a foundation building monk by the other party's side?" The shopkeeper asked.
"Why do you have to kill him?" Zhao Yingyun asked.
"There are spiritual beings in the world, why can human beings take from other living beings, since they are all spiritual beings, and they have already given birth to wisdom, they are equal." The shopkeeper looked at Zhao Yingyun's eyes and said.
At this moment, Zhao Yingyun felt that he was right, if he regarded the snake demon as a person, then he should not take his true blood to practice, and Zhuang Xinyan, a person with the blood of a cat demon, was a real person.
So Zhao Yingyun said: "You need to pay attention to how many people are around the other party, if there are many people, it will be difficult, there are not many people, there will be opportunities." ”
And he was also guessing about this person in his heart.
"Then as soon as we dawn, we will go to the Snake Mountain, and then I will lure away the purple mansion beside the prince, and you will go and kill the prince." The shopkeeper said.
"Okay." Zhao Yingyun replied.
So the two agreed on an approximate time.
In this way, he came out, and there was no other contract, because the two of them knew that they needed to wait for the opportunity and see the situation.
And Zhao Chengyun also knew very well that he had been constantly collecting spirit stones before, but he was just testing himself to see if he came to ask casually, or if he had that kind of determination.
And Zhao Yingyun was also testing the identity of the other party, and after testing each other, they found that they didn't seem to care much about the identity of the prince of Zhou Xing, and on this point, the foundation for cooperation had been laid.
Zhao Yingyun went out and did not return to the dealer's house, but walked into the darkness, then reached out and rubbed his face, and then changed the clothes on his body, and he became a young man with a somewhat flat face.
The clothes on his body are simple Taoist robes, which are the most worn by people in the current casual cultivation, and there is no magic formed by the attached runes on the Taoist robes.
He went directly towards the Snake Mountain, and by the time dawn he had reached the edge of the Mountain.
I traveled more than 100 miles in the middle of the night.
Then in the sun, on a large bluestone, he took out a stack of rune paper, as well as a rune pen.
This rune paper and rune pen were all given by Jin Xiuzhi of Lishan, and they belonged to the high-grade rune pen, and the rune ink was also the high-grade rune ink that he had never used.
There are many types of rune ink, and the masculine richness contained in his rune ink is the top grade for writing red flame fire runes.
He spread it out on the bluestone, then took some of the dew from the leaves, grinded it off, and then bent down to draw the talisman on the rune paper laid on the bluestone.
The sunlight seemed to condense under the tip of his pen, flowing down the rune ink to the rune paper.
The talisman pen flowed, the rune was outlined, and after a while, a fire talisman was drawn, but after this stroke was finished, he still did not stop, but wrote spells and magic urns beside him.
He had more spells than ordinary fire talismans.
The spell was an edict, and the name of the spell was still the Red Flame Gods.
He put the rune paper directly to the side, and a gust of wind blew, but the rune paper did not move.
Only the flame-like magic light emanated.
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded: "Sister, someone here draws talismans!" Let's see. ”
The voice was crisp, and after speaking, he had already run towards Zhao Yingyun.
"Don't bother others to draw talismans."
It was obviously the sister's voice, it sounded very gentle, and as soon as she heard it, she knew that she couldn't control her sister.
"I'll just take a look, don't speak, I won't disturb him." The younger sister had already come behind Zhao Yingyun while speaking, Zhao Yingyun did not get up, and his subordinates still did not stop.
She looked at the talisman placed on the side, but hurriedly beckoned, and said in a suppressed voice: "Sister, come and see, this talisman is so special, I haven't seen it before." ”
A female cultivator wearing an apricot yellow robe also came to the side, she didn't want to look at it, she felt that looking at someone else's talisman was also a stealing teacher, but she still couldn't help but take a look.
With just one glance, she felt a scorching flame rushing to her face.
"Hey, you're the big pie face? You didn't die, what a coincidence, I met you here. ”
My sister bent over and saw Zhao Yingyun's face, and said in surprise.
Zhao Yingyun took a deep breath and stabilized his pen's intention not to collapse.
