Chapter 5: Two Monks
Walking through mountain streams, leaving my shadow everywhere I go, my toes and fingers turning into horseshoe shapes, this is my first skill, rock climbing.
At this time, I was wearing a monster sheepskin jacket, it was very cold in the mountains and forests, I didn't know where to go, I had heard the master say before, I could walk out of this mountain if I walked east, and I could see people.
I was carrying a small silver sword on my back, and I carried three storage bags around my waist, the first storage bag was empty, the master gave it to me, and I won't use it for the time being, the second storage bag was Master's, and I couldn't open it, and the third storage bag belonged to the dead monk in the white ape cave, and I couldn't open it.
The only thing I can use now is the little silver sword I carry. What I'm very sure of now is that in addition to the two colors of the spiritual root, I am still a first-level spiritual root, and I am still the most scummy, but I don't know why I feel that I have abundant physical strength and sharp five senses, maybe it is related to the demon pill that sucked two demon beasts, and I can't eat more demon pills, if there are more, I will become a vain monk.
Accidentally a thorn scratched me, but I didn't feel any pain, but felt very excited, and the blood felt a kind of strength in the scratching of the epidermis, and the feeling of hot blood even made me a little excited.
I had just jumped over a ditch, which was a bit wider, more than I expected, but I didn't want to know where the force came from under my feet to make my steps automatically take an extra half a step forward. Defense and agility have been increased, defense comes from the demon python, and speed comes from the white ape.
After shuttling in the mountains and forests for a long time, there are no so-called human populations, but there are many small animals, running back and forth, and they are so frightened that they go directly into the grass when they see me coming. There are also some birds chirping in the trees, and when they see me coming, they are not afraid of life, nor do they dodge, they know that those who run on the ground will not catch those who fly in the sky. Then they were wrong, so I secretly picked up some small pebbles, and while the birds were not looking, I shot a few of them, and when I found an open space, I roasted the birds.
The muscles of the birds are very active, almost no fat, and they are very chewy to eat, and suddenly a small wild boar came in from the grass, and the wild boar was the size of a human forearm, and came over and lay down in front of me and hummed.
"Why do you want to snatch my bird meat, do you want me to have bird feathers?" I said and threw the leftover bird meat over, which was not good, but I still threw a piece to it.
The little wild boar ate the bird meat with satisfaction, I also smiled slightly, I grew up in the Taoist temple, survival in the mountains is a basic skill, not long ago the master also took me to train, but unfortunately the master died, and the white ape I met also died.
I touched the "Taoist Treasure Book" in my arms, and I sighed that human life is fragile, and the life of demon beasts is also fragile. I won't die, I won't die easily, I have the Taoist Treasure Book, and I want to cultivate hard.
When I was in reverie, suddenly the little wild boar next to me fell asleep, just when I thought it was asleep, there was a running sound in the grass next to it, and the boar's screaming, I hurriedly stood up, took out a small sword, a sense of crisis fell on my head, there are clouds in the Taoist treasure book: when the soldiers are in chaos, they are afraid of the enemy.
The moment the thing came out of the grass, I saw that it was an adult wild boar, and the adult wild boar was fierce and cruel, and when he saw his child fainting to the ground, he attacked me directly, kicking his feet and smacking his mouth.
"Look at the sword!" I was so scared of it, and I was done.
I didn't plan to kill the boar with one blow, after all, my strength is still limited, and the boar is not an ordinary animal, with rough skin and thick flesh, and it is durable.
However, what I didn't expect was that when my sword fell, the boar's head immediately released "Fireworks!"
I can't waste it, I roasted the wild boar too, and the little wild boar didn't know why it didn't wake up, and when I finished roasting him, I tried it in front of it, but it didn't breathe, and I stabbed it with a silver sword, and it died, and opened its mouth and tongue and drooped it down. Bird...... Meat...... Poisonous?
Why am I okay? Is it because I have the power of a demon python? That python is poisonous? That python doesn't look like it is poisonous? Is it because the white ape is poisonous?
I don't understand, but anyway, I escaped and almost died in the mountains, becoming dust and fertilizer for plants and trees. If I hadn't entered that cave, I wouldn't have refined the Demon Python Pill, nor would I have refined the White Ape Demon Pill, everything would have been providential.
I touched the "Taoist Treasure Book" and secretly rejoiced, this sword according to my previous strength can not be able to split the wild boar in half anyway, it seems that my strength has also increased, whether it is a demon python or a white ape, it is a powerful demon beast.
The so-called art masters are bold, I now feel that I have strength, agility and anti-poison ability, and suddenly a trace of fear that was originally walking through the forest disappeared, and I swaggered in the gap between the trees, running for I don't know how many hours, and I never saw a road.
Passing through a woodland, stepping on a mountain rock, the rock is gray and bare at all, there is no number here to block the view is very wide, I stand on the raised stone and look around, oh, what a big forest, what a big mountain, the peaks are undulating and very beautiful, but I am worried, when can I get out of the mountains and forests? I also see a river in the distant mountains, and a valley, if there is a river, there must be someone? Eighty percent yes, I found the river first, and then continued to follow the river eastward, Master said that where there is a river, there are people, and water is the basic guarantee for the survival of life.
I turned to descend the hill when suddenly a shadow shot at me at lightning speed from behind me, but I was too late.
Just as the thing was about to hit me, a golden light shot from the forest, knocking the thing down, I broke out in a cold sweat, and when I looked at it, it was a lizard that fell to the ground, but the lizard was exactly the same color as the rock on the ground.
The lizard wanted to attack me, and another ray of light came over, and immediately after the light, two figures flew to my side, and the two of them shot out a pillar of light together, which was stronger and brighter, and roasted the lizard directly into a roasted lizard.
"Amitabha!"
When I came back to my senses, I saw that there were two monks, one older and one younger, the younger one was similar to me, and the old one was like my master.
"Discipline! You didn't handle the power of the Buddha's light well just now, how did you kill that animal?"
"Master, I didn't mean to, I accidentally confiscated the power!"
"Amitabha!" the old monk muttered again.
The little monk, who was half a head shorter than me and had a shiny brain, looked at me and asked, "Little brother, why are you alone in this wilderness?"
"I'm a little Taoist, my master is dead, the Taoist temple is dilapidated, I'm going to go to the folk to practice, but I don't know where there is a city, where there are people. ”
The old monk smiled slightly and said: "Child, the disturbances in the world, love and hatred, make people haunt their lives, it is better to cultivate in the deep mountains to be pure, if you abandon the Tao and follow the Buddha, I will accept you as a disciple, teach you the Wushang exercises, and you can subdue demons and eliminate demons in the future." ”
I remembered the Taoist Treasure Book about subduing demons and eliminating demons, and asked, "What kind of demon did the predecessors descend from, and what kind of demon did they remove?"
The old monk was slightly stunned, he didn't expect me to ask a question, and replied: "Non-human monks are all aliens, just like this lizard demon beast, if it weren't for the two of us passing by and happened to meet, you would have become a chaos in his belly." The cannibal must be a demon. ”
"Ahem, I said senior, don't people eat animals the same? Are people also demons, I don't accept you to say this, I'd better go to the mundane world to have a look. The outside world is so big, I've spent enough time in this deep mountain and old forest. However, thank you both for saving your life, otherwise I would have to be a baba tomorrow. ”
The old monk said: "Since the little donor has no Buddha fate, can you let the old man test the quality of your spiritual root? I can feel a trace of demonic energy from you." ”
"Senior, if I am really a demon, I can't beat it, I can only wait for death, I won't resist, but I'm a human. I'm human, so it's useless for you to measure. How you want to measure, it's up to you, anyway, your master and master are so powerful, and I can't escape here. ”
"The little master is very naughty when he speaks, there is a fire in my hand, you can put your finger in it and see, can you bear it?"
"Flame test method, my master has used it, saying that I am a first-level spiritual root, you can go directly to the second-level, I will definitely not be able to stand it." ”
The old monk was not polite, and the flames suddenly became a little stronger, and it seemed that it was undoubtedly second-level.
I put my fingers in the flame, and it was warm. Hey, I couldn't stand this level two before, so did the old monk tease me?
As soon as the monk injected aura, he silently recited: "Level 3!"
I still don't feel how hot my hands are,
"Level 4, Level 5, Level 6, Level 7, Level 8, Level 9!"
"I said, little doll, you can even withstand the ninth-level flames, are you still a human monk with only a spiritual root?"
This flame test method can't be disguised, if I am level nine, it is impossible to pretend to be hot at level three, because when I reach my current level, my hand will be red, and after one level, it will be painful, and if it is not red, it means that I can withstand it.
"I don't know, I'm human. ”
"Master, he can't be a demon, why is there a trace of demonic energy on his body. ”
"Can you two feel that I have demonic energy? To tell you the truth, I devoured a demon python's pill before, and then I devoured a demon monkey's demon pill, all of which were given to me by Master. "I panicked, but the matter of absorbing the demon pill was true.
"Devouring the Demon Pill, cough, we are not allowed to absorb the Demon Pill if we cultivate the Buddha together, but the Demon Pill can indeed bring certain benefits to human monks according to its different qualities, and your trace of demon qi is obviously caused by those two Demon Pills. It's just that judging from the fluctuation of your spiritual root, it is indeed a first-level spiritual root, but your fire-resistant ability exceeds the ninth level, and your spiritual root has become a xenomorphic spiritual root. ”
"Xenomorph Spirit Root?"
"Human cultivators, many people are superstitious about absorbing the power of the demon pill, obtaining the ability of demon beasts or cultivating the demon clan exercises, in fact, the extreme cultivation of human aura can also fly to the heavenly realm, even if it is your Dao ancestor. I'm worried that it will be unfavorable for you if someone tests your spiritual root in the future, so I will teach you the "Smoldering Fire Technique", as long as someone tests your spiritual root, you will concentrate the power of the five elements of flame into your hand, and withdraw your hand with a slight redness, so that no one will suspect that you are a ninth-level spiritual root. ”
"Thank you, senior!"
These two people are really nosy, and they have to take care of it to the end, okay, come on, teach me what's not good.
The old monk slapped me on the forehead with one hand, and with a loud shout, the birds in the valley flew in shock.
Suddenly, a string of words appeared in my head, glittering with gold.
"Let's go!" The old monk didn't ink, turned around and led the little monk away, leaving me alone in a daze.
The old monk who was grinding and chirping just now was suddenly very refreshing.
The little monk asked the old monk as he walked through the forest, "Master, why did you pass on his "Smoldering Fire Technique"?"
"This son is very talented, how can he only have a first-level spiritual root, this smoldering fire trick is of little use to you and me, but it is very useful to him, but he can be well protected. ”
"Master, is that alien spirit root powerful? Why don't you get him to our temple? As long as you talk about it a lot, you will usually have a headache and agree, didn't I do it at the beginning?"
"This kid is destined not to be mortal, the temple can't keep him, and besides, many people eat a lot of food, do you think the master doesn't cost anything to raise you stinky boys?"
......
I don't know what the two of them said, I read according to the magic trick in my mind, and sure enough, there is a flame on my body born from the spiritual root, and I use the four-character true recipe to run this fire into my hand, and my hand is red, according to this smoldering fire trick, it means that you can release the five elements of flame spells when you practice to a certain extent.
"Alas...... Wait!" It occurred to me that I should ask where I could go to find a place with a lot of people.
