Chapter 31: Qi Becomes a Dragon

Early the next morning.

Zhou Yi was walking on the street and heard people talking.

Ordinary people cannot sense the demonic energy that permeates the sky and the earth. The roar of dragons and thunderous fox tails are visible to the naked eye.

There is nothing new in the capital, and the greatest pleasure for many unemployed middle-class people is gossip.

Zhou Yi sneered at this. He heard someone spreading rumors mysteriously, saying that the demon suppressed by the palace was born.

As soon as I entered the Ministry of Materials, I felt a depressing atmosphere. My colleagues who used to be relaxed and smiling were all sitting on duty with their faces tense. Li Xun, who had always been playful and smiling, was also serious at this time.

Zhou Yi came to the Department of Five Internal Organs and found Zhang Cheng copying books.

In the past year, Zhang Cheng has rarely written.

Monobe's depressing aura came from Zhang Cheng, and frost almost formed on his old face.

At the third level of the Divine Refining Realm, the aura emitted unconsciously can already affect changes in the outside world.

"Brother Zhang, morning."

"Um--"

Zhang Cheng hummed in a neither yin nor yang manner.

Zhou Yi felt frustrated and began to concentrate on copying books.

Two people were on duty and completed the day's work before noon. Zhang Cheng sat in a chair and meditated, and Zhou Yi copied the scriptures.

"Brother Zhang, did you hear what happened last night?"

Zhou Yi endured it for a long time and finally opened his mouth to ask.

This is by no means gossip, I'm really just curious about Zhang Cheng's views on this matter.

"The sound is so loud, who can't hear it?"

Zhang Cheng said angrily: "They've bullied them all the way to the door, and they're still laughing at each other. Sooner or later, they will become a joke!"

Zhou Yi didn't know who Zhang Cheng was mocking, it was nothing more than the officials of the imperial court, the Buddhist and Taoist masters, the city god and the like.

Although the nine-tailed fox is powerful, if it really comes to running rampant in Luojing, only Qingqiu Fox Fairy is qualified.

Zhang Cheng cursed a few times, felt much better, and started mumbling to himself again.

"I can't stay in Kyoto anymore, there are no good people left..."

"Lao Zhang can't bear to leave the little lady of Chunfeng Tower..."

"Wuzhou has such a slim waist, but it's a pity that there is a stone from a latrine in Longchuan..."

Old people always like to talk to themselves.

Zhou Yi regarded Zhang Cheng as a lonely old man who had never heard of him having a family, and had always regarded Chunfeng Tower as his home.

"...The question is: What is life? The answer is: The principle of life and life is a different name for yin and yang divine energy..."

He didn't listen and didn't ask, and he concentrated on copying the Taoist scriptures.

It is extremely difficult for Zhou Yi to part with the treasure land of Kyoto.

In recent days, my understanding of the scriptures has become more and more profound, and I have gained a lot more insights into the Taoist way of intertwining life and life.

Refining Qi is a life skill, and refining God is a sex skill. If you combine the two, you can achieve immortality.

This is what is said in the Taoist scriptures. Zhou Yi believed it for the time being with a skeptical attitude. After all, possessing a demon illustration does not necessarily mean he will be on the same path as a Taoist immortal.

Believe in the book, but you cannot trust the book in its entirety.

Zhou Yi paid his dues and returned all the way to Tongfu Inn.

On the side of Tongfu Inn, there is a new sign: Lao Zhou’s secret fried chicken.

As the founder of fried chicken, Lao Zhou has been busy with diners in recent days.

It was particularly deserted today. When Zhou Yi entered the door, he found that there were only seven or eight young people in colorful clothes surrounding a little girl.

The little girl was born cute, with exquisite facial features, crescent eyebrows, and braids. If you put it on a certain note in her previous life, she would definitely become the girl of all people.

"Why is she here?"

Zhou Yi frowned, returned to normal, and walked behind the counter to observe secretly.

The girl is none other than the nine-tailed fox, Hu Jiuying.

"Auntie, am I right? This fried chicken is particularly tender."

The leading young man, with a bruised nose and swollen face, and a slight lameness in his right leg, boasted: "The fried chicken in the capital originated from here, and the Taibai Tower in Dashunzhai is all about picking up people's teeth!"

"Uh-huh, it's so sweet, the needle doesn't poke!"

On the table occupied by Hu Jiuying alone, there were more than a dozen large plates, some empty and some full, all filled with fried chicken of various flavors.

Young men in colorful attire stood aside, serving them carefully, handing them over immediately with just a wink.

"My aunt is really a fairy from heaven who descends to earth. She is unique in the sky and unique on earth... The moon closes and the flowers are shy, the fish sinks and the wild geese fall..."

The young man at the head of the group patted the fox's butt eagerly. Unfortunately, he didn't study much on weekdays, so he was at a loss for words after speaking a few words.

Seeing Hu Jiuying eating happily, her mind turned around and she thought of a new trick.

"Shopkeeper, come here!"

Zhou Yi held the Taoist scriptures in his hands and said without raising his head: "What orders do you have, sir?"

"Huh? He's still a scholar, no wonder he's so cool!"

The young man limped to the counter, knocked on the table and said, "Do you know who I am?"

"have no idea."

Zhou Yi's eyes flashed with spiritual light, and he subconsciously used the spiritual eye technique.

After staying in the Demon Slayer Division for a long time and seeing Zhang Cheng a lot, I always felt that there were dragons and crouching tigers hidden in Kyoto, and the beggar squatting at the door gnawing chicken bones might be a third-grade master.

An ordinary person with uncoagulated blood and mottled breath, who has not reached the ninth level.

Zhou Yi was relieved, it seemed that he was just an ordinary dude, and he used the Qi-gazing technique to watch again.

A dandy in Kyoto generally has a loose golden energy, mixed with a brown-gray sense of decadence, and his family is in decline.

There was a chaotic mist above the young man's head, and there was a vague aura swirling inside, making it difficult to see clearly with the aura technique.

"Interesting and interesting, it turns out to be a magic weapon that conceals the secrets of heaven!"

Zhou Yi became interested, mana poured into his eyes, golden light flashed through, and he saw through the fog of chaos.

A black python coiled above the young man's head. It looked like an eagle and a wolf, as if sensing Zhou Yi's prying eyes, it flicked its tail uneasily and made a hissing sound.

People who are angry and become pythons will be trapped and embarrassed in times of trouble, and they will be brave and heroic in troubled times.

Dongdongdong!

Seeing Zhou Yi in a daze, the young man emphasized loudly: "I am the son of the Dragon Rider General, Xu Ye, have you heard of me?"

"Xu Ye? Of course I have heard of him."

Zhou Yi's eyes were deep, revealing a strange smile.

"Haha, Brother Ye's name is indeed extraordinary."

"Of course, Brother Ye is one of the four great evils in Luojing!"

"What four great evils? It is obvious that Brother Ye alone has one evil, and the other three are at most pests."

"That is not as good as my aunt, isn't Brother Ye still serving? Aunt, don't do it yourself, let me do it!"

The other young men in gorgeous clothes couldn't help but tease.

Xu Ye was not angry, but looked proud.

"Do you know how powerful I am?"

"Well, what's the matter, Mr. Xu?"

Zhou Yi has obtained the art of looking at qi for more than ten years. He has observed many people and this is the first time he has seen the condensation of luck.

The theory of luck has existed since ancient times and can be roughly divided into destiny and fate.

Fate is determined by heaven, destiny is determined by oneself, and the two influence each other.

Luck is not a matter of destiny, it can change at any time, with increases and decreases, rises and falls, and wins and losses.

Even some madmen who do not respect ghosts, gods, and heaven and earth believe in the existence of luck, and sigh that "when luck comes, heaven and earth are all in harmony, and when luck is gone, heroes are not free."

Everyone's luck is strong or weak, with a starting point determined by innate factors, and the increase and decrease of rise and fall affected by acquired factors.

Among them, there are those who are born with extraordinary luck, and their luck in a certain aspect is extremely strong, which will turn the virtual into reality and gather qi to condense into shape.

Qi into a dragon and python is one of them.

Xu Ye didn't know that Zhou Yi saw through him, and said arrogantly: "The chef said that this fried chicken secret recipe was created by you. If you give it to me obediently, you will be protected by this shop."

"Tell me how to get involved with her, and I will teach you the secret recipe."

When Zhou Yi spoke, he secretly performed the magic of bewitching, and Xu Ye, who had no cultivation, was immediately caught.

Xu Ye's eyes were hazy, and he couldn't help but say: "My aunt is so beautiful, I'm jealous..."

"Little Ye, change to another one, the fried chicken here has a weird smell!"

Hu Jiuying's voice was crisp, and immediately woke Xu Ye from his daze, and then he left the inn surrounded by a group of playboys.

Xu Ye had no idea what was going on, and everything was based on Hu Jiuying's love, and he hurriedly chased after him.
