Chapter 3 Searching for Souls

The little scholar He Zhu came over and looked at it curiously, Gu Zuo hurriedly sped up the progress, pinched the trick with his left hand, continued to put pen to paper with his right hand, adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing the power operation, all kinds of symbols went up, and after the scolding, he began to "look at it again and again", and finally made a net-like pattern.

He Zhu asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Zuo pondered for a moment, first nodded, then shook his head, then nodded, and then shook his head, and said, "Go back and try." ”

Seeing his unfathomable appearance, He Zhu didn't dare to ask again, and went over to tell the young master who was laughing with the two maids, and the young master He Fu moved over again and said, "When will your royal Taoist come back?"

Gu Zuo coughed dryly: "Well, I don't know this, sometimes it's three or five days, sometimes it's three or five months, it's not accurate." ”

He Fu waved his hand: "Bamboo, take the little king to ......"

Gu Zuo hurriedly corrected: "The surname is Gu." ”

"Okay, take Daoist Gu to Xiling to have a look. ”

There is nothing to see in Xiling, and even if there is, Gu Zuo can't see it, but as long as the Hengyi Pavilion, no, the Huaixian Pavilion does not fall, he has to hold up the faΓ§ade, so he circled around the place where the young master of the He family lost the cat twice, and then "thoughtfully".

He Zhu asked, "What did Daoist Gu calculate?"

Gu Zuo corrected: "I'm not a Taoist yet, and I don't have a Taoist." ”

He Zhu said: "Sooner or later." Then, did Immortal Master Gu find any traces?"

Gu Zuo said: "As far as I know, it seems that there are people in your mansion who have advanced cultivation, why don't you ask them to help?"

He Zhu shook his head: "Didn't the young master say it just now, this matter can't be known to others, including the master, you can't talk nonsense everywhere, and if it reaches the ears of the master, the young master will not spare you." ”

After wandering around Xiling for a long time, I didn't see anything, a cat was lost in the mountains, how can I find this? let alone five days ago!

Gu Zuo had no choice but to go back first, planning to survive for three days, but if he couldn't do it, he could only admit that he couldn't find it, and the reward of the He family was gone.

Lying on the bed of his thatched hut, he took out a copy of "Searching for Souls" from under the pillow, and turned the pages one by one, hoping to find a way from it, but after turning it three times, he still found nothing.

"Sou Ling Jue" is Wang Daochang's unique technique, which is divided into two volumes, the upper and lower, and the one in Gu Zuo's hand is the upper volume. Wang Daochang has more than a dozen exercise secrets, which are locked in his cabinet on weekdays, and as far as Gu Zuo knows, he has never seen him read them.

One day last month, Wang Daochang came back drunk and didn't know what to find when he opened the cabinet, and then he didn't lock it, so he fell asleep at the head of the bed. When Gu Zuo went in to cover him with a quilt, he found an open wooden cabinet, and he had the courage to touch the upper scroll and copy it overnight. He originally wanted to copy the next volume, but it was already dark, so he had to do it, and there was no suitable opportunity after that.

The first volume of this "Soul Search Formula" contains basic cultivation exercises, and is equipped with three practical methods, Gu Zuo has read it dozens of times in the past month, and it can almost be said that he is familiar with it, and there are some obscure sentences, and he also asked Wang Daochang about it.

Although Wang Daochang did not pass on his exercises, he was confused, and Gu Zuo took a lot of cultivation knowledge, so that Gu Zuo understood the meaning of this "Soul Search Formula", but Gu Zuo still can't get started, because he doesn't have a spirit stone.

Without spirit stones, there is no spiritual power to breathe, and there is no real thing to cultivate, which has been fully proven by his practice in recent months. And the price of the spirit stone is not something he can imagine now, a spirit stone is usually up and down, that is, about 1,000 yuan, even if he sells himself, he can't make up so much money.

It would be nice if the He family's lost tanuki could be found, and with the He family's handwriting, maybe they would be able to get the same reward, and with this money, they might be able to start their own path of cultivation.

With a "meow", the little civet cat came to Gu Zuo's feet lightly, squatted down and looked up at him, waiting for him to eat. Gu Zuo was also hungry, but there was no rice in the pot, so he had to go down the mountain again and look at the bamboo basket by Ruoye Creek, but there was nothing in it.

The water of Ruoye Creek is turbulent, and it is difficult to fish, Gu Zuo walked a long way along the water's edge, and he didn't even notice the shadow of the fish, so he had to go back. As a result, as soon as I entered the door, I saw the little civet cat holding a hamster from nowhere, feasting.

Gu Zuo was greedy for a while, but he knew that the consequences of eating this thing might be very serious, and he had an obstacle in his heart, so he didn't compete with the little civet cat for food, threw his hand out of the door, walked around the surrounding forest, found a small handful of dates that had been shriveled out of season, ate half and vomited half, and barely survived the night.

Before dawn the next day, Gu Zuo was woken up by hunger, which made him experience the pain of displacement half a year ago, so he stepped deep and shallow on Xiaogushan, and came to the place where he got off the fish basket again, still with nothing.

Gu Zuo walked five miles with a fluke mind, rushed to Xiling, and turned around again to see if he could find the tanuki lost by the He family, but it turned out that luck was never necessary, and the five-mile road was in vain.

He was already a little hungry and panicked, and looked up at the uninhabited hillside around him, wondering where he could get food.

After pondering for a while, I finally remembered that a person came, and it was not far from the vicinity, so I turned to the north along the foothills, and saw a prominent archway, with three big characters of "Liulintian" written on it.

Along this archway inward, along the mountain road up, in the shade of pine and cypress, there are many palaces, it is one of the only two cultivation sects in Huiji County, Liulin Sect.

Three months ago, he went to Jia's house, a big household in Shanyin County, with Wang Daochang to catch demons, and met the female disciple of Liulin Sect who came down the mountain in Jiafu - Luo Xiandi, who was also invited to catch demons, of course, Wang Daochang had no chance to make a move, and the fox demon was killed by Luo Xiandi on the spot.

Luo Xiandi is three years older than Gu Zuo, but she is already a Qi Refiner who is about to be perfected, she is heroic and heroic, and she is a relatively famous female swordsman in Shanyin County. When she was in Jiafu that day, the female swordsman once asked Gu Zuo if he had entered the cultivation, and asked Gu Zuo to call her "Senior Sister Luo", which can be regarded as a rare "relative and friend" of Gu Zuo in the world.

The archway is the mountain gate, although unattended, but to enter is to trespass on the mountain gate, the consequences are self-evident. Gu Zuo could only wait anxiously under the archway of the mountain gate, to see if he could meet the disciples of the Liulin Sect who came down the mountain and help him bring a word.

After waiting for a long time, a person finally came down from the mountain, dressed in a tunic brocade robe, surrounded by a short Luo skirt, and the two long legs under the Luo skirt were tough and powerful, it was the heroic Luo Xiandi.

Gu Zuo was overjoyed, took two steps back, bowed to the side of the road, and waited for Luo Xiandi to come over and go up to greet him.

Luo Xiandi walked to the archway, saw Gu Zuo who greeted her, and asked suspiciously, "Are you?"

Gu Zuo hurriedly clenched his fists: "Senior Sister Luo, I am Gu Zuo from Hengyi Pavilion, Xiao Gu you instructed when you were catching demons in Jiafu three months ago. ”

Senior Sister Luo suddenly said: "Ah...... Xiao Gu ......" nodded while waving into the distance.

Gu Zuo followed her gaze and turned to look, and saw two white-clothed monks walking in the distance, one handsome and chic, and the other was a little clumsy, walking together seemed extremely incompatible.

Gu Zuo has only been in Shanyin for half a year, and he doesn't know many people, and he happens to know these two people who don't match, but they are disciples of Dushan Sect, another famous family in the county that is on a par with Liulin Sect, one surnamed Zheng and the other surnamed Li.

Gu Zuo immediately secretly said that it was not good!
