The first wind rises from the Cloud Dream Sect Chapter 38 Spirit Corpse
After the two sat down, the first few people did not mean to greet them. The two didn't care, anyway, everyone was only temporarily teaming up, and they went their separate ways afterwards.
The ethereal monk pointed at the white-haired old Taoist and said, "This dustless Dao master inherits Tianyin Mountain and is proficient in the way of exorcism, please tell you about the situation of corpse demons." ”
The white-haired old man coughed lightly a few times and said: "You should know that there are four types of corpse demons, white-haired corpses, green-haired corpses, black-haired corpses, and flying corpses, which correspond to the four realms of human cultivators' spirit attraction period, spirit seed stage, Jindan stage, and Yuan infant stage. With our strength, we can only barely deal with a white-haired corpse, and if we don't understand the strength of the corpse demon on the mountain, it is tantamount to asking for our own death. ”
"The Tao has a point. Everyone nodded their heads in unison.
The white-haired old man looked a little proud, and continued: "But you don't have to worry too much, I have already gone to the valley to investigate during the day. Judging from the traces left at the scene, the corpse demon on the mountain should be just a white-haired corpse. ”
"It would be too hasty to judge based on traces alone. If it's wrong, a few of us, won't there be no return? The brocade-clothed man shook his head and shouted dissatisfiedly.
The white-haired old Taoist shook his hand at the brocade-clothed man, and said confidently: "Fellow Daoists, please rest assured, I don't just rely on traces to make judgments. Fellow Daoists, have you noticed that the time when the corpse demon commits murder is in the middle of the night. When the corpse demon advances to the green-haired corpse, it is not afraid of the sun. Well, it doesn't just come out in the middle of the night. When everyone heard the reason, they were relieved.
Pointing to the tall middle-aged man in a yellow shirt, the white-haired old man said: "This Taoist friend said just now that for the sake of a corpse demon, it is not worth so much to mobilize the people. This is also true. The corpse of a corpse demon is naturally not worth many spirit stones. However, if it is a living corpse demon, the situation is very different, and it is possible to sell thousands of lower-grade spirit stones, or even tens of thousands. ”
When everyone heard this, their hearts shook violently, and they all showed a look of disbelief. The man in brocade said unceremoniously: "Tens of thousands of lower-grade spirit stones, the Taoist chief's words are a bit alarmist." ”
"You fellow Daoists don't know that a living corpse demon is equivalent to a demon beast, and its strength is still above most demon beasts. It's just that ordinary monks don't know the art of exorcism, so they can't drive it. When you meet a suitable buyer, you can sell one or two thousand low-grade spirit stones, which is not a problem at all. ”
"What's more, you don't know that there are actually two kinds of corpse demons in the world. One is called corpse refining, which is made by monks who are good at alchemy from corpses. Refining corpses can be artificially refined, so there are more of them, accounting for the vast majority of corpse demons, which is more common. The spirit of refining corpses is extremely low, and they can only act according to the orders of their masters, and they will not cultivate by themselves, and if they want to improve their level, they can only rely on their masters to refine them with secret methods. The other is called a spirit corpse. Unlike refining corpses, spirit corpses are created by ancient corpses channeling their own spirits. An incorruptible ancient corpse that is hundreds or even thousands of years old happens to be buried in a place rich in yin qi, and after years of being nourished by yin qi, it has a very small chance of channeling on its own. The spirit corpse has a high level of intelligence, and it is born to swallow the essence of the sun and the moon and improve its cultivation on its own. The spirit corpse itself can be cultivated, and coupled with the cultivation of the secret method of raising corpses, the advancement speed is extremely fast. A spirit corpse with excellent qualifications, even if it is possible to advance to the Flying Corpse in hundreds of years. Therefore, for monks who are proficient in the art of raising corpses, the value of living spirit corpses is extremely high, and it is not an exaggeration to say that tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones are made. Seeing that everyone's eyes were attracted by him, the white-haired old man involuntarily shook his head and played off.
The white-haired old man's words completely mobilized everyone's emotions. Tens of thousands of spirit stones are a huge amount of money to them, which can change the fate of a monk.
"So, this corpse demon on the mountain is the spirit corpse that the Dao Leader said?" asked the tall yellow-shirted monk excitedly.
The white-haired old man nodded proudly and said, "There is more than eighty percent chance." As you know, if the corpse demon on the mountain is not a lost refining corpse of a monk, it must be a spirit corpse that channeled itself. As far as I know, there are not many monks who practice the art of raising corpses in Youzhou, and the closest person to this place is more than 100,000 miles. Therefore, it is very unlikely that this corpse demon on the mountain is a refining corpse, and it is very likely that it is a spirit corpse. If we can capture it alive, we will have a large amount of spirit stones. ”
As soon as the white-haired old Taoist finished speaking, the brocade-clothed man sneered a few times and said, "The Taoist chief's wishful thinking is good. However, there is one important problem that cannot be solved. The corpse demon is infinitely powerful, its body is as strong as iron, it comes and goes like the wind, it is very difficult for several of us scattered cultivators to defeat it, and it is even more foolish to want to capture it alive. ”
"If it's just a few of you, if you want to capture the corpse demon alive, it will naturally be extremely difficult. However, with the addition of Poor Dao, it is very different, because I have this treasure. As he spoke, the white-haired old man took out a yellow spirit rune several inches long from his body, held it in his hand and shook it down.
"This is our Tianyin Mountain's secret spirit talisman - 'Corpse Suppression Talisman'. No matter how powerful the corpse demon is, as long as I put this corpse charm on its forehead, it will immediately be unable to move, and it will be captured. Our Tianyin Mountain has been destroyed, and the method of making the corpse talisman has also been lost, and this talisman is very rare and very precious. Therefore, after I capture the corpse demon alive, I will divide it into sixty percent, and the seven of you will divide it into forty percent. ”
After listening to the white-haired old man's remarks, Li Zhe couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart. The corpse demon on the mountain is likely to be a spirit corpse, so it has nothing to do with the Demon Dao monk, and it seems that it is going to run for nothing.
However, it's all here, so let's help Lujia Village solve this trouble. Besides, the spirit stone is a good thing, not as many as the monks, so make some money.
As for the number of points and the number of points, Li Zhe doesn't care too much. Zhang Tianbao's thoughts are similar to him.
Just because the two of them don't care doesn't mean that everyone else is the same. The brocade-clothed man, the bewitching woman and the two middle-aged men in yellow shirts were very dissatisfied and quarreled with the white-clothed veteran.
The bewitching woman caressed her heart, and said with a smile: "The Dao Chief's offer is too ruthless, and it frightens the slave family." Let's talk about it again. ”
The short man in the yellow shirt pulled the tall man in the yellow shirt and said, "The Taoist chief is so behaving, forgive our brother for not being able to accompany him." After saying that, the two of them made a gesture to leave.
The brocade-clothed man roared like thunder: "Old Niubi, you take the big head, and the seven of us share the small head, you are too deceitful." Uncle just slaughtered that corpse demon, and he didn't cheap you. As soon as these words came out, the bewitching woman and the man in the yellow shirt echoed it.
Seeing that the two sides were about to break up, the ethereal monk hurriedly pulled the white-haired old man over, and the two had a secret conversation head to head.
After a while, the ethereal monk seemed to convince Lao Dao.
He came over and persuaded him: "Don't be angry, you can talk about business if you can't talk about it." My old friend is willing to take a big step back, he takes forty percent, and we divide sixty percent. The old man felt that this distribution was very reasonable, after all, without his help, we would not have been able to do anything. Moreover, that precious corpse talisman was a one-time item, and he paid the biggest price. With that, he turned his gaze to the crowd.
Li Zhe didn't want to waste time, so he was the first to nod and agree. Subsequently, Zhang Tianbao, the man in brocade, and the bewitching woman all agreed. Seeing that only the two of them were left, the two yellow-shirted men reluctantly agreed.
After negotiating the distribution plan, the white-haired old man was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "The corpse talisman is different from the ordinary spirit rune, and it takes a little time to prepare before it can be used, so after the corpse demon appears, you can trap it with vine magic, just give me time to buy three or four breaths." During the day, I've discovered the hideout of the corpses, so come with me. ”
Everyone followed Lao Dao and soon came to the valley where the tragedy occurred, although a few days had passed, but the air was still mixed with the pungent smell of blood.
Lao Dao led everyone to the entrance of a hidden cave and reminded: "As soon as you enter the cave, you will encounter corpse demons at any time. ”
The two middle-aged men in yellow shirts rushed into the cave first and said, "Let our brothers open the way for everyone." "This is the most dangerous errand, and naturally no one fights with them. Behind them were the ethereal monk, the white-haired old man, followed by Li Zhe, Zhang Tianbao, and finally the brocade-clothed man and the bewitching woman. The eight men were divided into four rows, carefully and slowly advancing deeper into the cave.
The voluntary performance of the two yellow-shirted people aroused Li Zhe's vigilance. These two people are very selfish people who care about their personal interests, how can they take the initiative to take on the work of opening the way for everyone.
I was about to say something to remind Zhang Tianbao, but I didn't expect Zhang Tianbao to whisper in Li Zhe's ear first: "Be careful and change." "It seems that Zhang Tianbao is just very honest, not a nerd.
The cave is very spacious, two people high and four people wide, and two people walk side by side without any obstacles at all. The cave is very deep, but fortunately there is no fork in the road, and the eight people are not afraid of getting lost.
They searched and advanced, and soon came to a large natural cave. The cave has a radius of 100 zhang, 40 or 50 zhang high, the cave is full of stones, and there are many half-cut stalactites, it seems that it was broken by someone with great force, it is estimated that it was done by the corpse demon.
The cold cave was very quiet, except for the occasional wind blowing in and making a strange noise, which added to the gloomy feeling.
The eight of them let go of their senses and carefully explored the cave, but unfortunately found no trace of the corpse demon.
Everyone couldn't help but wonder if the old way was the right way.
The man in brocade couldn't help but ask: "Dao Chief, are you sure that you are not leading the wrong way, will the corpse demon not be in this cave?" ”
The white-haired old Dao seemed to have been greatly insulted, and said angrily: "Although my Tianyin Mountain faction has been dilapidated, and most of the Dao methods have lost their inheritance, but the art of searching for corpses is only the most superficial introductory kung fu, and the poor Dao will never find a mistake." This cave is eerie and damp, and it is a favorite place for corpses. I think the corpse demon ate a lot of blood food a few days ago, and it was dormant and digested, and it didn't come out to move. The dormant corpse demon has a restrained aura, and it is difficult to find unless it is close. Besides, it's not like we haven't reached the bottom of the cave yet, and there's still a passage over there that you can go deeper. ”
Seeing that the white-haired old man replied so surely, the man in brocade was relieved.
He suddenly smiled at Lao Dao, stretched out his right hand, and said, "Thank you Dao Commander for leading us here, we can just walk the road by ourselves, please give me the corpse talisman." ”
The white-haired old Taoist was shocked, took a few steps back, looked at the man in brocade as if he was facing a great enemy, and asked sharply: "Fellow Daoist, what does this mean?"
"Dead bull nose, isn't my son-in-law clear enough? hand over the corpse talisman with a good understanding, maybe it can save your life, otherwise don't blame us for being ruthless." "It was the tall man in the yellow shirt who spoke.
Only then did the white-haired old man find out that the brocade-clothed man, the bewitching woman and the two yellow-shirted people had formed a circle to surround the ethereal monk, the white-haired old man, Li Zhe, and Zhang Tianbao.
It turned out that these four people were in a group, and they just wanted to use the old way to guide the way and collect his corpse talisman for their own use.
If they let them clean up the white-haired old way, Li Zhe and Zhang Tianbao will definitely not have good fruits to eat, and the two will naturally stand on the side of the old way.
The two sides are facing each other like this, and the battle is about to break out.
I don't know why, Li Zhe faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't say what was wrong.
