Chapter 18: The Evil Spirit
On a flat meadow, Wang Changsheng appeared without warning. After stabilizing his figure, Wang Changsheng looked around, and the place he was in was silent and uninhabited. Looking overhead, there is a huge aperture of light. After a little feeling, there was indeed an extremely pure aura in the void. After exploring, Wang Changsheng sat cross-legged and began to practice according to the words of Tianzhizi.
After a long time, during the interval of this day's practice, Wang Changsheng suddenly saw the black gourd hanging from his waist, and couldn't help but remember that both Shizun and Master Yuanjue had specially mentioned the things in the gourd. Now that Wang Changsheng's cultivation has been successful, he wants to see what is in the gourd.
He stretched out his hand to take off the gourd and pulled the gourd plug off, and in an instant, the ghost spirit was furious, the cold and yin wind blew directly, and a steaming black gas gushed out from the gourd's mouth. The black qi was as black as ink, condensed and did not disperse, and it gathered together and turned into a humanoid monster. The monster was no more than three feet tall, with a slightly upturned head in the middle, pointed ears, hairless hair, a flat nose, and a pair of bat wings under its ribs.
When Wang Changsheng saw the monster appear, he immediately stretched out his index finger and summoned a pale white flame on his fingertips, and made a gesture to throw the flames at the monster. As soon as the monster gained a firm foothold, he was so frightened that he trembled all over, and said, "You are so rude. You and I have just met and haven't said a word, so why do you want to set fire to me?"
In fact, Wang Changsheng had already guessed a little before opening the gourd, but when he really saw the monster that could speak out of the gourd, he was still surprised. I saw that his face was cold, and he said angrily: "What a bold little ghost! In that nameless meadow before, you conspired with that Taoist to kill me, and now you dare to ask me why I want to burn you." ”
As Wang Changsheng spoke, the flames on his fingertips grew sharply. Seeing this, the monster's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly took a few steps back, and hurriedly said: "What happened in the past was not my original intention at all! I was coerced by that person, and I had no choice but to do it. ”
Wang Changsheng was unmoved when he heard this, but pushed the flame forward a few points, sneered, and said, "You shirked it cleanly, but when you saw that there was no one to prove here, you talked nonsense." ”
The monster seemed to be very afraid of Wang Changsheng's flames, and when he saw Wang Changsheng like this, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed and said, "Please also invite the immortal and receive the supernatural power, and temporarily calm the anger of the thunder, the little ghost has a heart." ”
When Wang Changsheng heard this, he reined in the spiritual flame, but pretended to be angry and said, "If you dare to lie to me, you will definitely be destroyed." ”
The monster was really frightened, and said repeatedly: "Don't dare, don't dare." Speaking of this, in fact, the immortals should not only not blame me, but should thank me! Although that person didn't mean to kill you that day, he didn't just want to blow some yin wind to blow you, but I just didn't want to help. ”
Wang Changsheng sneered when he heard this: "Don't talk nonsense! It's obvious that I have a lot of evil spirit, how can I say that it's the credit for your refusal to contribute?"
The monster didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly explained: "How can the ordinary Yin Ghost thing that the Immortal said compare to me. Don't hide that the place where I grew up is extremely strong, because I am not afraid of the evil qi on your body, you see that I am only four feet away from you now, isn't it no different?"
When Wang Changsheng heard this, his face softened, and after putting away the spiritual flame, he said, "If that's the case, let's stop the previous thing for the time being." Let me ask you, what is your name, where were you born, where did you grow up, and why did you die unjustly?"
The monster was a lot relieved to see Wang Changsheng put away the spiritual flame, thought for a while and said: "Back to the immortals, the little ghost has no name, no one knows where he was born, where he grew up, and he doesn't know what grievances he had before he died. ”
When Wang Changsheng heard this, he actually summoned the furious spiritual flame again, and at the same time, his face turned cold and his eyes showed a fierce light and shouted angrily: "Lies, it seems that you really don't want to live anymore." ”
The monster's face changed dramatically because of Wang Changsheng's sudden move, and he trembled all over, and took a few steps back. But for some reason, the monster suddenly took a few steps forward, crossed his hands on his hips and said angrily: "The immortal doesn't know how to do things. I have to answer all questions, what is the reason why the immortals will kill me if they don't distinguish between the true and the false? If you are sincere in wanting to kill me, you don't have to ask questions and do it directly. ”
Wang Changsheng naturally wouldn't really kill it, and said, "You have some guts. Since you say that I can't distinguish between truth and falsehood, then let me ask you, ordinary ghosts are unconscious and don't remember their names in their past and present lives, but you are clearly conscious, why don't you know all the questions? Aren't you deliberately deceiving me?"
The monster's face immediately changed when he saw that things were slowing down, and he hurriedly took a few steps forward, bowed down and saluted repeatedly: "The immortals have said that 'ordinary ghosts are unconscious', but I am clearly conscious, so it can be seen that there are exceptions. Then it's not surprising that I don't remember something. ”
When Wang Changsheng heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, pretending to think about it, and he paused for a moment before saying, "But I can't keep it, it's my fault that blames you." ”
Seeing Wang Changsheng like this, the monster gradually relaxed, stood up and straightened his waist, and pointed at Wang Changsheng with his hand as if he was chatting with an acquaintance: "Immortal, everything I said is true, you can't kill a good ghost by mistake!"
But he didn't expect that the spiritual flames on Wang Changsheng's fingertips suddenly shone brightly, and he suddenly changed his face and said, "This matter can be stopped." But when you conspired with that man to kill me, how could I give up? ”
The monster was taken aback again, and said in his heart: "How can this terrible grandfather say that he will turn his face, and besides, hasn't this matter already been said!" But seeing that Wang Changsheng didn't have the slightest joke on his face, the monster still didn't understand, so he had to say: "I am willing to sign a contract with the immortals, and sacrifice the fire of my life to be the natal ghost of the immortals. ”
How do you know that Wang Changsheng still refused, and said: "Loyal ministers don't care about the two masters, you originally followed that person, but now you see that your life is difficult to protect and you want to follow me, I can't tolerate you like this." ”
When the monster heard this, he hurriedly said, "That Dao man rescued me from the muddy land when my mind was not fully enlightened, and he really wanted to sign a contract with me to be his real name ghost. However, he only treats me as a servant-like existence and drives me arbitrarily, once he does his real name, the life and death of the ghost are all in his thoughts, and he treats me like this, I naturally don't want to. It's because I've never really followed him. That's why he's kept me trapped in the ghost. At the beginning, I was ordered to play a trick on you, and I didn't want to have a grudge against you, but I was constrained by him and didn't dare to disobey him arbitrarily, so I had to use your evil anger too hard to use as an excuse to blow some yin wind. ”
Wang Changsheng said: "That Taoist is kind to you, and you still don't want to be his natal ghost, how can you sign a contract with me now?"
The monster looked like a human, sighed, and replied: "There is a soldier armor on the body of the immortal, which is quite similar to the breath of the place where I grew up, so the breath is naturally close to you, the immortal." Besides, that Dao person is not as ruthless as Shangxian, he knows my benefits and will not kill me easily. As soon as the immortals meet, they will fight to the death, and if I don't think about it today, there will be no reason to survive. Then if the immortal surrounds my life today, I will voluntarily sign a contract with the immortal for the immortal to drive. ”
Wang Changsheng said: "Listening to your words, it seems that I don't know the goods. Now that I've just cultivated, and you're not my opponent, what's the benefit?"
The monster originally had an expression that you just didn't know the goods, but when he heard Wang Changsheng's words, he immediately reined in and said, "What the immortal said is a deviation. Just because I refused to be the real name ghost of that Taoist, it was because even if I begged him several times, he would not teach me the method of cultivation. I don't have any miracles to appear, it's all because I haven't practiced yet. Now I am the same as when I was an immortal before I practiced, so naturally I will not be an opponent of an immortal. At this point, there was a bit of sadness on the monster's face.
When Wang Changsheng heard this, he asked the monster to stand up. After thinking about it, he said, "Since you have said this, it is inconvenient for me to kill you." It's just that I'm the one who holds grudges the most, if you become my real name ghost and are bound by me, where will you do evil again? If you don't accept you now, I'm waiting for you to make a mistake, and then I'll kill you. ”
The monster heard that Wang Changsheng's first half of his words were intended to let him go, and immediately turned his sadness into joy. But when he really listened to Wang Changsheng's words, the smile on his face suddenly stiffened.
At this time, Wang Changsheng continued: "Now that I am cultivating, since you are interested in cultivating, sit down with me and listen to the scriptures." But if you have received my favor, you will be of some help to your place in the future. ”
When the monster heard this, how could he not know that Wang Changsheng did not sign a contract with it, which was completely kind. Thinking about Wang Changsheng's desire to teach it the method of cultivation, he was overjoyed and actually paid homage, and then said sincerely: "The little ghost has begged for the method of cultivation but can't. Now the immortal not only did not kill me, but also taught me the method of cultivation, and this little ghost will never dare to forget it in his heart. Today, I would like to follow the immortal, but I have no choice but to die. ”
Wang Changsheng nodded and said, "Now that you are following me but have no name, it is quite inconvenient to call me. Why don't I give you a name?"
The monster said, "It's all up to the immortals." ”
Wang Changsheng thought for a moment and said, "Since you said that the place where you grew up is very strong, how about calling you 'Yin Sha'?" That monster was born from the Yin and Evil Qi, and he was naturally close to this two Qi, and he was very happy to hear this name, so he naturally had no objections.
Time flies, time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Wang Changsheng and Yin Sha have been practicing together for two years. During this period, Wang Changsheng not only consolidated the cultivation of various techniques, but also made great improvements, especially the refinement of the Escape Method, which was even faster. I don't know if Wang Changsheng was born with the talent to cultivate the escape method, or if the Tianzhizi specializes in the escape method so the escape method passed down is extremely exquisite, Wang Changsheng actually cultivated one of the escape methods to the realm of Xiaocheng in a short time.
The path of cultivation was difficult and arduous, and Wang Changsheng often practiced martial arts in order to relax his spirit. It is hard to imagine that the two martial arts of "Buddha Roaring Gong" and "Buddha's Golden Body" taught by Master Yuanjue now can infuse spiritual power into them and be extremely powerful, and all other martial arts are not the slightest different. It turns out that Master Yuanjue is really a master, and what he says seems to be ordinary, but in fact he has his own mystery of creation. Wang Changsheng secretly made a wish, and after returning, he would definitely visit the master again.
Yin Sha followed Wang Changsheng to study diligently, and his cultivation also made great progress, and he actually stimulated an abnormal mysterious ghostly power on his own.
Wang Changsheng has never been out of the aperture so far, and he doesn't know where his trip is and where the danger is? Moreover, the evil ghost in the gourd is yin, and it will never be an ordinary ghost thing that is valued by Yuanjue and Tianzhizi, but so far I don't know what the mystery is.
