Chapter Forty-Five: A Little Trick to Subdue the Crowd

-- I had a party in the evening, and I finally got this chapter out before I got off work.

Although the Seven Swords of the White Tiger from ancient times made Shi Xuan have some curiosity, he still has other questions to ask: "Then how did you survive in this 100,000 mountains?" There are no powerful demon beasts in this vicinity, but a little deeper in the jungle, there are still a lot of qi induction periods, well, that is, demon beasts that can transform into people, they pass by casually, and you will have to destroy people in the village." ”

The pear vortex on Chi Yao's left loomed: "This mountain forest with a radius of tens of thousands of miles is the territory of the Qingzhu Peak Gu God Sect, as long as we hand in the offerings on time, they will keep one side safe, of course, there will definitely be some omissions, like my father and they are so suffering." However, most of the time, the village is safe, even if there is a powerful demon beast attacking, there is also a formation arranged by the Gu God Sect to resist for a while and a half, and then someone from the Gu God Sect will come to kill the demon beast. ”

After a pause, she continued: "And many land immortals are looking for demon beasts in the mountains and forests outside, and those demon beasts will easily dare not go out of the depths of the mountains. "She doesn't have much common sense in the cultivation realm, except for knowing a Gu God Sect, even the scattered cultivators who hunt demon beasts outside are regarded as land immortals, although there are indeed many Qi Induction Stage cultivators inside, and even masters of the Divine Soul Stage, but the degree to which the latter two go deep into the 100,000 mountains should not be something that people in Chijiazhai can easily encounter.

Shi Xuan nodded, and he figured out the background of this Chijia Village: "I don't know how you want Poor Dao to help you? Kill all the family members? But this also treats the symptoms but not the root cause, and Poor Dao can't stay here all the time." Then you will have to be forced to marry the Fang family, the Liu family, the Xi family, etc. ”

Chi Yao opened her mouth and didn't know how to answer, although she was smart and smart, she was too young to think about many things at all.

"Poor Dao and let me ask you, do you want to be the owner of the village?" Shi Xuan had to use questions to enlighten her.

"I don't want to, I have a lot to do, I have a lot of pressure, and I have to lead everyone to hunt, and my martial arts are not enough. Chi Yao replied crisply.

"That's not right, don't you still have a few younger brothers in your own family? The older ones are also ** years old, which is about the same age as when you first became the owner of the village, and you can be the owner of the village." Shi Xuan smiled faintly.

Chi Yao's face was panicked: "No, if it weren't for the fact that I am the owner of the village, the owner of the village recognized by the Gu God Sect, they would have tied me into the cave room a long time ago." ”

Shi Xuan's expression remained unchanged, and he understood in his heart why the Chi Yao family could always serve as the owner of the village, especially when there were still a few orphans and widows left, the Zhang family also had to achieve the purpose of controlling the village through this roundabout way, on the other hand, the Zhang family had not yet taken advantage of the relationship with the Gu God Sect, and this matter was better handled: "Isn't there still a poor road now?" After you let your younger brother become the owner of the village, you will use his young age to set up an elders' association, and let the wise elders of each surname join in and be responsible for the usual affairs of the village, which is called decentralization. In this way, after they become managers, they can't let you marry Zhang Qi because of the decline of the village, because this is something they have to solve, not you. ”

"The other castes are not as powerful as the surname Zhang, if you want to have more say in the elders' association, naturally some of them will unite and borrow your name to fight against the surname Zhang, which is called differentiation. As a result, you will no longer be alone in facing everyone in the village, but you will have a solid backing to face two or three other surnames. ”

Shi Xuan methodically analyzed it to Chi Yao, and Chi Yao's panicked expression slowly disappeared, and she nodded frequently. In the end, Shi Xuan said: "Then Poor Dao shows some more means, and that surname Zhang will definitely not dare to take such a risk again when the benefits are not big after getting you." You are not the owner of the village, and your martial arts are poor, except for the young and beautiful appearance that Zhang Qi likes, what else does the Zhang family like about you? If Zhang Qi wants to act, it is only his personal and his family's behavior, and it has nothing to do with the surname Zhang, so it can't be dealt with?"

Chi Yao pouted at Shi Xuan's last words, is it that bad, but she still has an important thing to ask: "But, won't the owner of the village become a puppet? ”

Shi Xuan said earnestly in the tone of teaching the juniors: "Therefore, no matter how many means there are, they are only for a temporary purpose, only your own strength is fundamental, you have to keep this in mind." ”

"Xiao Yao must remember the words of your old man, uncle. Chi Yao admired Shi Xuan more and more, and looked at this young-looking uncle with adoring eyes, I heard that the age of the land immortals is far greater than the appearance, this uncle has good knowledge and good vision, he must be an old man who has lived for hundreds of years!

"As long as your Chi family has good martial arts when the owner of the village grows up, and then contacts the Gu God Sect, it is only easy to regain the position, but will others let him grow up? Will others take advantage of the relationship with the Gu God Sect during this time? These are not something you can control, this is why you are not strong enough, speaking of which, if Zhang Qi ignores it and comes in in the middle of the night and rapes you, will you resist?" Shi Xuan continued to mention Chi Yao.

"But Xiao Yao really has no talent for martial arts, especially those who wield knives and sticks. Chi Yao looked at Shi Xuan pitifully.

Shi Xuan took out a jade slip and instructed Chi Yao: "You bring a stack of blank paper." ”

Chi Yao went into the room expectantly and took out a roll of white cloth: "Uncle, is this the Immortal Dao Exercise? Do you want to teach me? Also, there is only yellow paper, why don't you use these white cloths?"

"That's fine. Shi Xuan picked up the jade slip and put it on the white cloth, and the white cloth rolled on its own, and after a while, it was full of words. I only saw Chi Yao's eyes shining: "This, is this the immortal law?

"Although the poor Dao will not accept you as an apprentice, it can still teach you ordinary immortal dao exercises, of course, if you can't learn it, then don't mention it, and find a good person who can fight against Zhang Qi as soon as possible to marry. If you can get started, if you have any difficulties, please ask for advice on yourself. Shi Xuan interrupted some of Chi Yao's thoughts and gave her some hope.

"Yes. "Although he can't be accepted as an apprentice by his uncle and his old man, it's still very good to have a book of immortal dao exercises!

"I see that your body is soft, and you have a water surname, and this "Soft Water Decision" is being used with you. You read it first, and then I'll explain it to you. Shi Xuan pointed to the white cloth on the table.

The next day, Chi Yao immediately visited the elders surnamed Fang, Liu, Xi, Fu and Chi who were not from their own family, and in the afternoon of the same day, these elders announced that Chi Yao had voluntarily let his cousin Chi Mo take over as the head of the village because of his poor performance in the past three years, and Chi Mo was only nine years old, so the establishment of the Elders Association would help him decide affairs.

And at this time, the surname Zhang knew about these things, but because there were several surnames joining forces on the opposite side, and the elders would also have their places, and there were quite a few, so they had to pinch their noses and admit it.

The attention paid to Chi Yao's marriage in the village basically dissipated all of a sudden, after all, Chi Yao was not very old. Only Zhang Qi continued to remember this matter.

That night, in order to celebrate the establishment of the Elders' Association, fires were lit in the village, and thousands of people sang and danced, eating meat and drinking in large bowls.

"Xiao Yao, I heard that what kind of living immortal is that little white face in your family?" Zhang Qi led a group of people, took advantage of the wine to surround Chi Yao, and shouted loudly, other people who sang and danced, drank wine and ate meat, and those who talked next to him, all stopped and looked at Chi Yao, Chi Yao, who has no good means for three years, after a guest came yesterday, he played a wonderful chess game today, if you want to say that it has nothing to do with the guest, everyone must not believe it.

"Oh, this kid is looking for a poor way?" Shi Xuan paced over, and asked the old people and strong men who often went out hunting in the village today, there was no shadow of yin and yang within a radius of hundreds of miles, and there were some other evil spirits, it seemed that the vicinity of the Chijia village that the master said should be greatly discounted. At this time, seeing Zhang Qi stirring up trouble, it was in line with Shi Xuan's intentions, otherwise how could he find an opportunity to show his means, so he used a condescending tone.

Zhang Qi was so angry by Shi Xuan's tone that he was angry, and the wine was rising, and he took the big jar of wine: "You, aren't you a living immortal, you have the ability to drink all the wine in this jar!"

Although the others didn't think that Shi Xuan couldn't drink it, especially those few martial artists who had entered the subtle realm, they could feel the faint coercion on Shi Xuan's body, and they were even more sure that this young Taoist priest could drink it, but what was his strength, now was a good opportunity to take a look, so everyone turned their attention to Shi Xuan.

"In this way, poor Dao drinks a jar, and you drink a bowl. After Shi Xuan finished speaking, he didn't wait for Zhang Qi to answer, he picked up the big jar and raised his head to drink, gurgling, after a while, Shi Xuan turned the jar upside down, and the wine did not fall.

Zhang Qi couldn't stand Shi Xuan's slightly mocking eyes, and said loudly: "Okay, I'll drink." Picked up a bowl of wine in the hand of the person next to him and drank it, then looked at Shi Xuan provocatively, "If you have the ability, you can drink it again!"

Shi Xuan smiled and didn't speak, walked to the wine jar in a few steps, and drank it when he mentioned it.

One altar, two altars, three altars...... At the beginning, the people in the Chijiazhai next to him were still very calm, but as Shi Xuan drank more and more, their eyes widened and widened, and when Shi Xuan drank to the fiftieth altar, some people had already begun to rub their eyes, and the others were eager to stare at Shi Xuan's stomach.

For the people of Chijiazhai, the small number of monks they have seen in ordinary times are below the qi induction period, and although the people of the Gu God Sect are strong, they are in contact with the natal Gu worm, and they may be better than Shi Xuan in terms of insidiousness and weirdness, but when it comes to the authentic means of the Dao Gate, the difference cannot be calculated in the Dao.

A small trick to cover the eyes and shrink the yin and yang cylinders hidden in their mouths made these people in the village shocked! Could it be that the wine in their village could be as much as a big lake?!

Zhang Qi inspected the dirt where Shi Xuan was standing in disbelief, and found that no wine had been poured on it, and looked up at Shi Xuan in horror: "It must be an illusion, it must be an illusion." "This Qi seems to be a little knowledgeable.

"Since you said it's an illusion, then where is the illusion?" Shi Xuan looked at Zhang Qi indifferently.

Zhang Qi touched those wine jars and found that there was indeed no wine in them, at this time he had been awakened by the wine, but he still refused to admit defeat and said: "I, I don't believe that you are a living immortal, you have the ability to call the wind and rain!"

As soon as the words fell, the sky that was already dark became darker, and then a gust of wind blew, and suddenly layers of faint black mist rose at the fire.

Then there was a light rain in the village, and the rain was mellow, and it turned out to be the best wine, and just smelling it was much better than the wine in the village.

"The heavens are full of immortal wine, and the poor road returns by the dragon. In the rain and fog, the people of Chijiazhai only saw that after the young Taoist priest chanted two sentences, a huge black dragon with distinct scales and horns flew out of nowhere, and respectfully knelt at Shi Xuan's feet, and then the young Taoist of ordinary stature stepped on it, and then the black dragon carried Shi Xuan leisurely and flew back to Chi Yao's two-story small bamboo building.

Bang, I don't know which one of the Chijiazhai people knelt in the rain as soon as his legs were weak, plopping and plopping, and everyone knelt down one after another, muttering to himself: "Living immortals!"
