Chapter 0885 Gold

Mr. Qin took a sip of the wine in the glass. It was as bad as he expected. He didn't even understand why he did this. It was like he had to step over the puddle in front of him even though he could bypass it, and ended up getting his shoes wet. , the soles of my feet are very uncomfortable.

It's his own fault, he thought, and then he realized that he was just a little nervous. As a demon soul, he knew that he should be as stable as a mountain, but it didn't mean that he could do it - just like those seriously ill martial arts masters who knew that they could do it with just one kick. No matter how high I kicked, I couldn't lift my leg at all.

Mu Xingqiu's body was still sleeping soundly under the table, and no one helped him up. Scenes like this were common in taverns. Only when the companions who were drinking together were drunk, would the waiters throw them away one by one. go out.

Mr. Qin didn't know how to help him. He just sat there, letting the bitterness and trembling caused by the bad wine spread throughout his body to compete with the tension in his heart. This move actually had some effect, and all possible dangers seemed to be eliminated. Some distance behind.

But this is just an illusion.

The door of the tavern was pushed open, and a strange old man walked in. He immediately attracted everyone's attention. Even the drunken drinkers, as long as they had not fallen down, looked at the door with their sleepy eyes. Grinning stupidly.

The old man wore a bright purple robe and a towering talisman crown on his head. There were two upright animal horns on the top of the crown. He looked taller but the proportions were out of proportion. He held a long white feather in his right hand. , holding a shining golden jar in his left hand, nearly two feet high and one foot wide at its widest point. It looked heavy. If the jar was really made of gold, it would be a treasure.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on this gold pot, and they were secretly weighing its authenticity in their hearts. The guests stopped making fist-fighting noises, and the waiters forgot to come forward to say hello. No one noticed the obvious demon decoration on the old man's body.

The imperial capital was heavily guarded, but he was able to walk into the tavern in the city openly. As long as he took his eyes away from the gold pot for a moment, he would notice that this matter was unusual.

"Those who like to drink are good people." The old man spoke with enthusiasm, as if the people in the store were all his relatives and friends, and everyone was having a family gathering, waiting for his arrival, "Who else likes to drink? ? The monster clan, especially the beast monsters, look how similar you are to the beast monsters.”

"Hey, old man, why are you swearing!" A drinker who was not too drunk became angry, slapped the table and stood up, shaking his body.

"Hey, how can this be a curse? I'm obviously complimenting you." The old man in purple said with a smile, walked up to the drinker and handed the gold pot over, "Say, 'Humans and monsters are as close as one family. ’, you can get something out of it.”

The man was stunned. The gold jar in front of him was so bright that even the tavern was no longer dim. "Human... a family," he mumbled vaguely, then stretched his hand to the mouth of the jar.

"Haha, this won't work." The old man shook his head and moved the gold pot away.

"Humans and monsters are as close as one family." The drinker said loudly. Seeing the old man nod, he immediately reached into the jar and grabbed a lot. However, the mouth of the jar was too small. After grabbing something in his hand, he couldn't take it out. He tried hard After waiting for a long time, I had to give up, angrily holding something larger with my fingers, and finally took out the jar.

That was really gold. The drinker took a bite and his drunkenness disappeared by three points. Another kind of red light appeared on his face, "Humans and monsters are as close as one family, humans and monsters..."

"The spirit is commendable, but don't be greedy. You only have one chance." The old man was very happy and turned the gold pot to other drinkers.

Everyone rushed forward, shouting "Humans and demons are as close as one family", and then reached into the jar to get a piece of gold. Even the shopkeeper dropped his account book and came to grab a handful, only to find that what he got was really a small piece. Jin Zi, his face turned pale with shock.

The jar seems to have a memory. If anyone wants to fish in troubled waters and catch gold one more time, the mouth of the jar will suddenly become smaller, making it impossible for the palm of the hand to enter.

"Everyone has a chance!" the old man shouted, walked to Mr. Qin's table, put the gold pot on the table, bent down and glanced at Mu Xingqiu under the table, laughed twice, and sat down with Mr. Qin On the other side, he stepped on Mu Xingqiu with both feet.

The customers in the store had no intention of drinking and were all staring at the gold pot. Finally, some smart people came to their senses and understood the meaning of "everyone has a chance". They raised their legs and ran out to greet friends. Others Then suddenly, after a while, the store became empty, and even the shopkeeper and the waiter ran away.

"My name is Mr. Yishi, and I am your admirer." Mr. Yishi's appearance changed again, a little less majestic and a little more kind, "I condensed all the souls into a demon, and after living for thousands of years, I became a demon." You think it’s great, but you’re really a frog in the well. How long have you lived?”

"More than 157,000 years ago." Mr. Qin said.

"Wow, I only have a fraction of your money." Mr. Yishi stared at Mr. Qin with the eyes of everyone coveting the gold pot, looking up and down, "If I take the liberty to invite you..."

"I won't agree to that."

"Let you be the main soul?"

Mr. Qin still shook his head. He was not interested in becoming a demon of souls at all.

"Alas, I would be angry if other souls disagreed, because they actually refused the great opportunity given by Lord Yishi, but you... alas, I am the one who suffered the loss, and I am also the one who is sad. Alas, alas, I can take a bite Just a small sip, it won’t even bleed... maybe a little bit, just a few drops..."

"My physical body has been destroyed long ago, this is the Dharmakaya."

Mr. Yishi sighed again. Only the physical body has the marks of the past, and the Dharma body has nothing to show for it. "Can you make a friend? Let's chat or something."

"Since we can't even be friends... Taoist priest, come in." Mr. Yishi raised his voice.

The door of the tavern opened wide, and those who came in were not Taoist priests, but a group of ordinary humans. The doubtful expressions on their faces turned into eagerness the moment they saw the gold pot.

"Is it true..." Some people still wanted to raise questions, but others were already shouting slogans and rushing towards the gold pot.

"Get in line and come one by one." Mr. Yishi said impatiently, turning to the empty stool on his right hand. "Are you still saying that I won't succeed? Look, more and more people agree with me."

Suddenly there was an extra person on the stool. Such a strange scene did not attract anyone's attention. Even if someone glanced at it, they didn't care. Even if there was an extra tiger in the tavern, they would first reach into the jar and then escape for their lives.

Shen Hao smiled slightly at Mr. Qin and said, "Sir, you are fine."

"fine."

Neither the teacher nor the former student were excited to see each other again after a long absence. On the contrary, Mr. Yishi smiled again and waved the gold pot to another table, "As soon as Mu Xingqiu cast a spell, I discovered that his magic , nothing can escape my eyes. Fortunately, I didn’t let the devil get there first.”

Mr. Qin and Shen Hao did not answer the conversation, so Mr. Yishi continued on by himself, "Let me explain first, I have not taken refuge in the Taoist tradition, I have just been exposed to the mirror of observing shapes, and I can't escape no matter what. It's like a awn on my back, and it's so itchy. No, I thought, if that's the case, why bother running away? The Taoist priests are not coming back for me, so what should I be afraid of? I might as well just touch the mirror, haha, this trick is really useful."

Mr. Yishi glanced at both of them, "You don't treat me as a friend, so I remain neutral. I don't help anyone or cause trouble. I just sit here quietly and watch your fight. This has lasted for thousands of years... …No, no, it’s a grand scene that only happens once in a hundred thousand years.”

Shen Hao took out the shape-finding mirror and put it on the table, "Sir is a demonless soul, and the demon species is a soulless demon. They are both weak when separated, but they cannot kill them all. When the two merge, I Not your opponent."

"Dao Tong has been looking for me for hundreds of thousands of years, and he should have finally thought of a way to completely eliminate me and the demon species. Let me think about it... the shape-finding mirror can absorb the demon soul and the demon species, while locking us together. It can also prevent us from merging, and then..."

"Then Daotong will return together and use the nine great treasures to completely kill the demons." Mr. Yishi rushed to say. He had been thinking about this for a long time, but Shen Hao refused to say a word.

Mr. Qin shook his head and said, "Dao Tong will not come out. The mirror will automatically take me and the demon species back to Dao Tong's secluded place."

"Then what? Where will I kill you?" Mr. Yishi kept asking.

Mr. Qin still shook his head, "It is too wasteful to kill the demons. The Taoist order needs our power..."

"I understand!" Mr. Yishi rushed to speak again, raised his hand and patted the table, "Taoist priests need to obey Rimang Taoist priests, haha, you have to suffer, neither life nor death, neither life nor death. , half alive and half dead...how long will it take for the demon clan’s power to be drained away?”

"If all nine treasures are put together... it will take about a hundred years."

Mr. Yishi laughed even louder, causing some of the gold grabbers to turn to look at him, "Interesting, interesting, but even so, you are not willing to take the initiative to fuse with the demon species?"

"I don't want to."

"Haha, you are really the most interesting creature I have ever seen. It's a pity that you don't want to join the Soul Demon. Listening to what you say, I don't want you anymore. But you won't sit still and wait for death, right? That would be boring, but stupid , you can’t be stupid.”

"I'll bet on Mu Xingqiu."

"This kid?" Mr. Yi Shi glanced sideways under the table, his feet still on Mu Xingqiu, "He may not be as powerful as me."

"You have to give him some time."

"Do you think Mu Xingqiu can compete with the entire Taoist order in the future?"

Mr. Qin nodded.

Mr. Yishi laughed again and slapped the table, as if he was intoxicated by drinking, and then turned to Shen Hao, "It's okay to not find the demon species for the time being. The demon soul is here, why didn't the Mirror of Observation absorb it?" he?"

"Because you lied to me." Shen Hao said calmly, without any anger.

"How could I have deceived you?" Mr. Yishi clearly admitted the accusation with a smile on his face. "How did I deceive you? Tell me how I deceived you. Let me be proud of you for once."

"You discovered him as soon as Mu Xingqiu cast the spell. That's because Mu Xingqiu took the initiative to find you and asked you to help." Shen Hao glanced at the people who were queuing up to shout slogans and dig out gold. , "You aroused everyone's greed, made them similar to the possessed, and then hid the demon soul. Mr. Qin sitting here is just a spell left by the demon soul."

The extreme emotions of possessed people are always present, and ordinary people only occasionally experience high emotions. At this time, they do have similarities with the possessed people, and they can even be used as guideposts to guide spells.

Mu Xingqiu discovered this from the angry strong man.

Mr. Yishi smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into two slits, "That's because I'm smart and have prepared the gold jar a long time ago. Otherwise, how could I have deceived a Taoist priest who pays attention to the spirit? Also, I am helping Mu Xingqiu. It’s not you, and it’s not a demon soul, so I didn’t lie before.”

Mr. Yishi has a habit of using gold pots to sell slogans. He really wants to do this well, but it just happens to be used to help Mu Xingqiu.

"You alone are not enough." Shen Hao glanced at the mirror and said, "The dragon demon is also nearby."

"Ouch, sorry, we have so many experts to deal with you alone."

"It doesn't matter, I want to solve all the problems here at once." Shen Hao glanced at the Mirror of Observation again, "My helpers are here too."
