After finding the house of Hepao Xiucai, I had a plan in my heart.

My sister Azhu led me to visit the March Lake again, the three pavilions in the lake are built in the middle of the lake, which is amazing, the lake crisscrosses six wooden bridges, all of which can lead to the March Pavilion, even in broad daylight, there is still the noise of singing and dancing. I also went to the famous dance music workshop, but I have a feeling of a fairy building for this dance music workshop, and I don't like it very much, so I left in a hurry after listening to a small song.

For the next six days, my sister and I drew at night, toured the mountains and rivers during the day, washed our feet and caught fish by the stream, fluttered butterflies on the grass, jumped to the roof to look at the stars at night, and threw five taels of silver into the money basket of the owner of the steamed bun shop. The junior sister said that she had stolen their steamed buns in the past few years, so she asked the senior brother to help pay it back first, and then return it to the senior brother when the junior sister had the money.

I said generously: "What's the matter, what kind of money do senior brothers and sisters talk about, which hurts feelings." ”

Buying daily necessities, this girl's home is meticulous, and the consideration of life is very thorough. I spend an average of one small goldfish a day, what is a small goldfish? It is a gold ingot, one or two gold ingots are called small goldfish, and ten or two gold ingots are called big goldfish.

I have eaten a mouth full of oil these days, and the most piled up in my sister's small thatched hut is the wine jar, these days is a good drink, although I am not strong in wine, but I can also accompany my sister to drink, I drink a cup, she drinks a jar.

Looking at the stars together, she always hugged my arm, and when she was tired, she leaned her head on my shoulder, this Ah Zhu, maybe she has been lonely for too long. However, she always held my arm and gave me a desire to be relied on and want to protect her.

Seeing her lying peacefully in the quilt I had laid out made me feel so good.

However, tonight is not the time to look at the stars together, I changed into a night suit, pushed the door out, and came to the crane robe Xiucai's house, I performed the four-character true trick of closing the word, the whole body was introverted, and my feet switched into catwalks to sneak over the wall into the bamboo forest, and took out a piece of flint and steel from my arms.

I secretly thought it was funny, I will give you some trouble, so I secretly poured a large piece of bamboo on the wine, and then the flint and sparks splashed everywhere, and it caught fire with a "sting".

I turned over and walked away, turned a corner out of the courtyard wall, hurriedly changed into Taoist clothes, whistled and planned to go back to the small hut.

A gust of night wind blew, and I was a little worried about Ah Zhu, so I hurried away with the trick of resisting the wind. Suddenly, a shadow jumped up the road, its feet off the ground, fluttering, the shadow couldn't see its face, it didn't know what it was doing, it stood in front of me.

"What man?" I am a monk, a master of natural art and a bold man.

The thing's voice was eerie and terrifying, like an old man, and he said slowly: "You deceived people and set fires, and caused great evil, come with me, Lord Yama wants to see you." As he spoke, he took out a knife from his bosom, and the chains rang and rang, and the knives were so long and long that the chains stretched out of the road, and he kept pulling and rolling.

My scalp immediately tightened, did I really encounter a ghost? Or is it a ghost cultivator? Could it be a demon hunting envoy? My heart is like a hundred flowers blooming, and all kinds of possibilities come to my mind. I'm very cautious in doing things, and I didn't feel that someone was following me before, it couldn't be a demon hunt, not to mention that the demon hunting envoy was too busy with a big case, and he could still care about me as a little kid who set fire, and besides, since the crane robe Xiucai was a monk, it would definitely not be a problem to put out the fire, and it would not cause any big consequences, how could he be targeted by the demon hunting envoy?

I remembered the incident that made a fuss in front of the gate of heaven five days ago, and since this person knew that I was lying and set fire, he was targeting me at that time, and there was no other possibility. If this person is not a demon hunting envoy, then he is also a monk who pretends to be a god and a ghost, if he is really a ghost cultivator of heaven and earth, I am afraid that he would have been taken down by the demon hunting envoy a long time ago, and he can still be allowed to enter the city casually? Thinking of this, my heart calmed down. I really hadn't seen this kind of pretending to be a ghost just now, and I was startled when I saw it coldly, but it was nothing if I figured it out.

However, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, in case the other party kills me, just to seek property, then I will not be able to row, thinking of this, I have a plan in my heart.

I smiled: "Hehe, ghost adult, you see, I am a little hairy child, and I am also a first-time offender, it is better for you to make a price, whether you want spirit stones or gold and silver, you are satisfied, as long as you let me go." ”

When the "ghost" heard this, the movements of his hands stopped, and he said, "Or, give me your junior sister, I want to eat her." ”

"Lord Ghost, it's okay to ask for money, it's not okay to ask for people, that's my junior sister. ”

"Your junior sister, I think it's a little lover, hugging and hugging, or tell your master, see how he punishes you. ”

I smiled: "Seniors, they are all monks of my generation, so don't make trouble." I'm just a little kid, no matter what you want, my junior in the aura period is probably not enough for you to do it for a while. Let's say, if there is anything that needs help from the juniors, as long as you can do it, you can do it. ”

I have to protect myself, I have already released the four-character true recipe to absorb the word, probe the aura on his body, sure enough, the aura is very abundant, the momentum is second only to my master's feeling, he is definitely a master, how can such a master lack gold and silver, there are other reasons.

"You are not afraid that I will rob you of your belongings and destroy your corpse. The voice said fiercely.

"If it's easy for my predecessors to kill me, what's the use of me being afraid?"

"Okay! If you have the guts, look at the knife! Then I'll give you a ride." "The ghost almost teleported in front of me, and his hand fell.

"Wait......" I hurriedly stopped, I didn't want to leave my life to others, I suddenly remembered the easy number of secret words that Master taught me, in case the other party can understand, then some words are easy to say.

"I'm a human, that's why I'm a fighting roe deer, I don't know which way the predecessor is a fairy?"

"Oh, interesting. And who is your half-father?"

"My half-father's surname is Kong. ”

The shadow continued, "And what is your identity?"

I replied, "I'm a son, so what about you?"

"I'm your second uncle. ”

"Second Senior Uncle, are you the Second Senior Uncle of Yi Shumen?"

"Exactly!"

The conversation between the two of us just now is the code word of Yi Shumen, which means that I am a liar, and the fighting style means to deceive and fool, while the roe deer is the meaning of a fool, and a fool is the meaning of the deceived, and the two are different. Which way the immortal actually asks which sect and which school. He didn't rush to answer, but first asked me who the half-father was, that is, who the master was, and this code language was easier to understand, the master's father was the half-father. The son is the disciple, the nephew is the other disciple, and the second uncle is the second uncle.

"I said, uncle, you almost killed me. ”

"Smack!" "Second Uncle is all at once in my head, this habit is the same as Master, it seems that Master Zu often beats them like this, which makes me even more convinced that this ghost in front of me is Second Uncle. He took off his disguised robe, and turned out to be a monk thinner than my master, with a knife face, mouse eyes, and a small beard, which was similar to the face of the fat man that Master had changed when he teased me before. He blinked his eyes twice: "I also tested your courage just now, I wanted to scare you, but I didn't scare you, I guessed that you are our easy to count people." Okay, it's really clever, and he deserves to be my brother's personal disciple. ”

Our easy number of doors, the way of greeting when meeting is basically like this, the master has explained, you have to ask the master first, yourself, and then the seniority, so that you can recognize each other and speak Mandarin, there are routines.

Easy Counting is about calculation, calculation, and reasoning, and then you have to know how to perform and be good at disguise, and the second uncle is acting vividly, especially the drag chain, as if he just crawled out of hell. Our line of mind is ruthless, to be ruthless enough to ourselves, and then to grasp the weakness of people's hearts, it can be said to play psychological tactics, and pay attention to wisdom to win. Compared with the errand runners who run darts and work as nurses, our industry is considered advanced, and they are all low-grade ways of survival, which cannot be compared at all.

There are two masters in my master's generation: the first person is my master Kongzhi, and the second person is the one in front of me, known as the ghost ugly of "ghosts and sorrows", the meaning of this nickname is that this person is very ghostly, and the ghosts can't do anything about him, and he is also good at pretending to be ghosts.

"I didn't expect that my nephew had reached such a level at such a young age, and he knew that he had dug a pit and buried mines. "The meaning of digging a pit and burying mines is to set a trap on the other party, and then to deceive Shu.

"Why did the second uncle come to March City too?"

"Ahem, your master has sent me a book for flying pigeons, let me cooperate, I fortunately came not far away. ”

"Alas, Uncle Shi, what are you doing with that zipper, can you teach me?"

"That's all a little trick, look at my chain. ”

When I looked closely, his long chain was a loop, one end was set on a stake, and the other end was pulled in his hand, which could be turned in a loop, never end, and under the cover of the night, it seemed to be endlessly dragged out, which was really a good skill.

I led my uncle to Azhu's residence, and Azhu was shocked when he saw that I had brought back a ghost-like person.

"Ouch, you're a target at such a young age?" said the second uncle playfully.

"What's the matter, I'm just a little junior sister who has been accepted.

Underneath the fluorescent stone, I saw that Azhu's face was flushed.

This night, the second uncle, the ghost ugly, told me some of his experiences, and I raised my posture again, and the ghost ugly pretended to be a ghost all the way to fool people, and even the monk was also a rich guy. And Azhu listened to it all night like listening to myths and legends.

The next morning, that is, on the seventh day, the streets of March City were bustling with people, and they started a busy day and topics, most people talked about the fire in the crane robe Xiucai's house last night, which made the whole city boil, looking for the little Taoist priest of Shangyunguan everywhere, saying that the little Taoist priest of Shangyunguan was very spiritual, and his master was a living immortal, and people were spreading more and more gods, everything was in my expectation.

I accepted it when I saw it, and early in the morning, I stepped on the morning star and led my junior sister Azhu and my second uncle Ghost Ugly on the way back to the Taoist Temple.

......

It's strange to say, the junior sister has walked more than ten miles all the way, and she is not tired at all.

When I walked to the second half, I found that the gravel and weeds had been cleared along the way. When I arrived at the gate, the scene in front of me made me inexplicably happy and surprised, and the entire Shangyun Temple had changed greatly in just seven days. Where the gold should shine with golden light, and where the red should shine brightly. Even the grass at the base of the wall has been cultivated into a flower pond, in which various unknown flowers and plants are planted, and some of the grass is cut into the style of words or patterns, which looks ingenious, dazzling, and very comfortable to look at.

Handrails are also installed on the steps near the mountain gate. Walk to the gate of the outer wall A large couplet engraved on the white pine wood, the big characters are like buckets, like ink-dyed stars, the words are clear, like mountains and mountains, thick with a trace of tenderness and elegant, it seems that the master himself carved it.

The right is the upper link: the five elements of yin and yang are broken to see the sun and moon in the palm, and the left is the lower link: the wind and water survey Liuhe takes the sleeve in the Qiankun. Horizontal batch: Jishi immortals. As soon as I looked at it, hey, Master, this is strong enough, cool enough, and explosive enough.

When I entered the gate, the two roe deer brothers were cleaning up the mess, and when they saw me coming back, they also greeted me. I introduced my sister and uncle to them. After a few pleasantries, they continued to clean. The two junior brothers were originally following a poor master, but now they have become rich Taoist priests, and even the Taoist robes on their bodies have been changed to brand new, and the smiles on their faces have bent their waists to ninety degrees when they salute the second uncle. Seeing the silly boy look at his junior sister Azhu is also happy, there will be one more member of the big family in the future, which is a great joy to be celebrated. Azhu is a little shy, he has met several people at once, and he will get along day and night in the future.

This courtyard has also become bigger, the entrance of the main hall is splendid, you have to look up at the three big characters of Shangyunguan, this look, the general mortal neck is a little dizzy, all the placement is deliberately arranged by the master, so that the pilgrims who come are confused, it is better to fool them.

All the items are placed in an orderly manner, the blessing tree is away from us, the fence is brand new, and there are a circle of copper coins hung up, and there are countless copper coins hanging inside, at first glance, the master himself hung up, but outsiders look like different people hung up. It says that those who are studying, those who are seeking health, those who are seeking marriage, those who ask for sale, and everything else.

There are several rocking chairs at the door of the lounge, made of bamboo and rattan, and there are rain pads, pergolas and antique tables next to them. In addition, there are a few stake stools, which are for the poor, and of course, it is also a foil to the chair who sits on it is expensive, and people always have vanity and will rush to buy a chair.

At this time, Master Kong Zhi was waiting for us at the gate of the main hall. He raised his right hand, pinched it, and said with a smile: "I will have a distinguished guest coming to the door today...... Haha!"

The ghost ugly hurriedly stepped forward and hugged my master Kong Zhi, and after three or four breaths, the two of them patted each other's backs tightly before they separated.

Entering the main hall and entering the lounge at the back, Master sat in the main seat, Ghost Ugly sat in the first place on the left, and Ah Zhu and I stood in the middle of the ground.

After the master and the second uncle exchanged two words, the master said to me, "This little girl is ......."

The master could see at a glance that it was a woman, and she was really sharp-eyed, and she couldn't accept it.

I clenched my fists and said, "Master, please condemn the sins of your disciples!"

Kong Zhi looked at the ghost and said with a smile: "Ah, why did you say this? Nine catties, let me tell you, don't fix that useless one, there is one saying and two saying two, how could my Kong Zhi disciple do something wrong? That is absolutely impossible." Kong Zhi said confidently.

The ghost ugly looked at me with a smile on the side.

I said, "My apprentice had gone down the mountain to purchase supplies and had completed the task of drawing a map, but there were two things that I had made my own decisions about and did not ask my master for instructions. ”

Kong Zhi waved his hand and said: "Alas, as the so-called generals are not subject to foreign military orders, I pay attention to casual adaptation, as long as it is profitable, then what is done is correct, even if you leave trouble, you have your own way to solve it." So, did you help me take in an apprentice?"

"Master, this is the female disciple Ah Zhu that I accepted on behalf of Master in March City. ”

"Well, yes, do you know how powerful this girl you received?"

"Ah, of course I know, she drank the Eight Great Jars of wine in one go, and she was not drunk at all, which was very powerful. ”

"Haha, you, you can help Master pick up the treasure. He turned his face to Ah Zhu and said, "Are you willing to practice the Dao with the poor Dao?"

With joy on his face, Ah Zhu knelt down and said, "The disciple is willing." ”

I'm blind, what's going on, what treasure have I found?

"Come, come forward, and let Master see what your spiritual root attributes are. ”

I was immediately dumbfounded, Azhu has a spiritual root?

Ah Zhu was also extremely surprised, and said, "Master, I have a spiritual root?"

"You have a spiritual root, but your spiritual root belongs to a hidden spiritual root, and ordinary people can't see it. ”

I am now very clear about the natural rules of the immortal cultivation world, that is, monks at a higher stage can directly see the general state of the level of monks at a lower stage, that is, during the foundation building period, you can see at a glance that I am in the aura period, but the monks above the foundation building period, the monks in the aura period can only feel the difference in coercion, but the monks who belong to it can't feel it, and the nature of the Yuan infant stage can see the general level of all the monks from the aura stage to the Jindan stage, but the monks at the same level and the higher level will be very vague. That is, it is only backward compatible, not upwardly compatible. And when it comes to the level of the Yuan Infant Stage, the feeling of the spiritual root almost does not need to be tested, and it can be seen at a glance whether there is or not, which is one of the differences between a great power and an ordinary monk.

Master Kong Zhi, like those predecessors who had tested the spiritual root, directly released a ball of fire. I will also test the flame method now, and I am not limited by the level of the spiritual root, as long as it is to test the spiritual root of others, then this fire can soar to the ninth level, and it will not hurt myself, but if I insert my finger into it, then I may also be burned. Strange to say, this is a specific kind of rule given by heaven and earth. Master has also analyzed the principle, that is, when you have a thought in your heart and want to test the level of other people's spiritual roots, this flame will absorb different levels of flames from heaven and earth, and it will rise step by step, without harming the master, just like the gods in the underworld are testing on the side.

When Aju's finger plunged into the flames, the flames suddenly turned blue.

Kong Zhi said: "Yes, it is a water magician. Among the five element mages, fire is the foundation, and water is the most flexible. ”

I scratched my head and asked, "Master, is it that she is particularly able to drink alcohol and has something to do with the spiritual root attribute?"

Kong Zhi smiled: "Exactly." ”

"Level 2!" Kong Zhi thought, the flame in his hand became more vigorous, and Ah Zhu didn't take out his finger, until he reached the sixth level flame, Ah Zhu still didn't take out his finger, and the ugly face on the side suddenly became serious, and said: "If you can reach the seventh level spirit root, then the cultivation speed will be very amazing." ”

However, the real world is like this, people always have a lot of expectations, but there are often not so many surprises, and when it reaches the seventh level, Azhu can't stand it, and his fingers quickly get out of the flames. However, the sixth level is also very strong, and I am afraid that it is the best quality spiritual root in the entire Taoist temple.

The master stroked his beard and was very happy: "Well, Jiujin you have made a great contribution, this water system magician can be of great use to our Taoist temple." And I didn't expect it to be a sixth-level quality spiritual root, as long as you cultivate well, your future is limitless. Jiujin, you now have a task to teach Ah Zhu the spiritual meaning recipe and the four-character true recipe first, so that Ah Zhu can activate the spiritual root and use spiritual power as soon as possible. ”

"Yes, Master!" I was very happy when I heard it, my junior sister actually had a spiritual root, and I could still be her introductory mentor, so we could get along day and night. In the past few days, my sister and I have a different relationship, that is, a kind of innocent love for the two little guesses.

Ah Zhu was not only unhappy, but looked cold, and said, "So I can cultivate immortals? Then I can take revenge." ”

"Oh, looking at your appearance, it should be a blood feud, right?"

Ah Zhu said, "Don't hide it from Master, my parents were killed by monks. ”

Kong Zhi said thoughtfully: "Regarding the matter of revenge, let it go first, if you are not capable enough, let alone revenge, you may put your own life into it." You have to know what kind of ability and level your enemy has. My apprentice of the Easy Count Gate has an enemy, and that is the enemy of my Easy Count Gate. Although this is your previous one, as long as the teacher is here, he will help you in the future. ”

The ghost ugly also said: "With my senior brother here, unless the enemy is an immortal emperor, a monk who is bullish will not be able to have a dish in front of my senior brother." ”

Ah Zhu was overjoyed and said: "Master, Yi Shumen is so righteous, I naturally will not involve the people, if I have the ability to avenge myself one day, I will also personally kill the enemy and avenge my parents." ”

"Cough, the so-called hatred of killing his father and taking his wife is not shared, then this revenge must be avenged. Kong Zhi shook his head and sighed, "It's just that the teacher is still the same sentence, you have to wait until you are really strong before you can act, otherwise there are countless masters in the world of cultivating immortals, you didn't have a spiritual root at that time, and you don't know the true strength of your enemy, maybe you just remember it." ”

"Yes, Master!"

"Okay, the teacher knows, but in the process of your cultivation, you must calm down and let go of all your grievances, otherwise it will not be good for your cultivation. Especially if you are also a magician, your absorption of aura is different from that of other monks, and it is easier to go mad. Be sure to pay more attention. Now, this temple is your home, and you can treat your brothers as your own brothers......"

Ah Zhu snatched the master's words and said, "As long as you take me to cultivate immortals, you are my reborn parents, and Jiujin is my own brother." ”

"Well, that's good!" Ghost Ugly and Kong Zhi glanced at each other again, this girl is really not humble or arrogant, she knows current affairs, and she seems to be a malleable talent, although she has hatred, but there is nothing wrong with it. Yi Shumen has received all kinds of people, ghosts and ugly used to grow up in the robbers' den, and their master's background is even more funny, he was born to the old bustard of the fairy building, and he was born a prodigal bad species, but I didn't know who my grandfather was at that time.

"The second thing is that the apprentice set a fire!" As soon as I finished speaking, the second uncle couldn't help but laugh.

The ghost said, "I'll tell you!"

Sure enough, the second uncle followed me for several days, and explained the ins and outs of the future clearly.

Kong Zhi patted the chair happily after hearing this, stood up and said, "The apprentice did a beautiful job!"

The ghost ugly said, "I also have something to help my brother." ”
