Gods

Chapter 60 Immortal

Li Wuxiang looked at him silently and waited for a while: "No more buts? Are you serious?"

"Seriously." Zeng Jianqiu frowned and thought for a while, "Before Zhao Puppet wanted to take away your body, oh, even when he was in the stove, he should have used the golden twine to transform himself into a ghost fairy, so he possessed Zhao Xi's body. Jin Tangzi is indeed a treasure. You don't know how difficult it is to take it seriously. I haven't heard of anyone doing it in so many years. "

"So after he came out of the stove... I just thought that you used your method to ward off evil spirits on him. He is not an ordinary lonely ghost, but he is not a ghost or fairy either. He should be somewhere between the two. Then the problem arises with what Zhao Qi did. Generally speaking, when you go to a place to invite gods, people's incense and willpower gather together, so to speak, you can think of it as a seat exclusive to the true god. , waiting for people to come and sit down.”

"This seat, regardless of whether the true god is invited to come in the end, still belongs to someone else. When you invite the Kitchen God in Jinshui, whether you invite him or not, the Kitchen God's seat still belongs to someone. Sometimes some lonely souls Wild ghosts, mountain spirits, wild monsters, etc., who are a little bit wise and courageous, go up and sit for a while, enjoy the incense, claim to be the Kitchen God or some righteous god, help people with things, and after they are done, they still have to Go."

"But Zhao Qi used Ranshan's talisman. I don't understand it very well, but I guess he drew a Talisman of the Stove Lord on the roof of every house. This thing should be to give the incense that people originally gave to the Stove Lord. Stolen. This is what I don’t understand. Such a stolen thing should be useless, but I don’t know what happened to their Ranshan talisman. It turned out to be a fake Stove Lord... Just like the fake emperor you were back then."

"In this way, the incense gathered into a small false god's throne, and Zhao Puppet sat on it. You may say it is fake, but it is also a real incense wish... So I think Zhao Puppet may be real. Became a god."

Li Wuxiang breathed out slowly: "You mean Zhao Qi created a god."

"Almost. But I don't understand why Ranshan's talisman is so powerful?"

"Is it related to their ancestor?"

Zeng Jianqiu shook his head: "I don't know about that."

"What should we do?"

Zeng Jianqiu scratched his head and sighed again and again: "How do I know about such evil? Anyway, it is definitely not with you. I guess it is still in Jinshui. This kind of thing should be done by people from the Netherworld. They understand this. But you must do it. As I said, people from Jin Shui should not be asked to worship the Stove Lord again, as it will easily lead to Zhao Puppet worshiping him. In fact, it is best not to stay in Jin Shui. If such a scene is made, it will easily attract ghosts in the future. "

"Yeah." Li Wuxiang nodded, slowly breathed out in his heart, and then tried to use a more casual tone, "When you asked me to leave before, you told me to go find You Jiuyuan——"

Zeng Jianqiu raised his hand: "Hey, let's not mention this now. I have no other intention. You are not a Taiyi swordsman, so I can't bring it up to you again."

"Oh, then when you told me that Zhao Puppet became evil, did this evil refer to an external evil? Zhao Puppet mentioned to me, what is that?"

As he spoke, he felt his whole body tense up. But until he finished speaking, there was nothing strange deep in his consciousness.

Zeng Jianqiu seemed to be relieved: "Oh, this. Sigh, I really don't know where you come from, and I don't know this either. Let's put it this way, as a practitioner, when the Tao is deep and you practice powerful methods, you must If you want to worship your own god, it is similar to ordinary people burning incense and worshiping. It may attract ghosts, but the worship of cultivators is more powerful than ordinary people. If there are too many, it will be bad luck. It is the same thing that attracts evil spirits. You should think of this thing as an extremely powerful lonely ghost or evil spirit. It will pretend to be the god you worship. You can't even think about it. Be careful, there are external evils entering the body - some people even think that they are really possessed by the Patriarch and God, and their cultivation level increases rapidly, and in the end they become confused and crazy, which is not a good thing anyway. "

"So, the higher the level of human cultivation, the more dangerous it is?"

Zeng Jianqiu reluctantly hesitated for a while - in such a daze, Li Wuxiang felt that he saw Zhao Qi's expression when he talked about the declining Ranshan Sect - and then said: "There is no such thing in the Dharma. Six Parts Xuanjiao has nothing to do with this. This matter belongs to the Thirty-Six Sects and Taiyi, otherwise why would they always say that we are heretics, bah."

"Then..." Li Wuxiang paused, "Does the external evil know what the person who has entered the body is thinking?"

"How is that possible? Are Zhao Qi talking nonsense to you?" He said this and was stunned. Suddenly he looked at Li Wuxiang and slapped his thigh: "Oh, I forgot about this!"

"What?"

He looked up and down Li Wuxiang's body for a while, and then said: "I shouldn't say they are the Ranshan sect, but you should be the Ranshan sect - the golden entanglement is on your body, and there are Dharma stickers on it. , Brother, you are now the sect master of Ranshan!"

"Oh? What do you mean by this thing? Is there any benefit to it?"

Zeng Jianqiu clicked his tongue twice: "You are such a calm person. As for the Dharma post, Zhao Qi told you, it was made by the Thirty-Six Sects themselves. There is nothing surprising, even if it is a seal, come on, Stretch your hand over here.”

Zeng Jianqiu held his palm and exerted a little force. Li Wuxiang immediately felt a stream of air flow into his body, but it only turned around slightly and disappeared without a trace.

Zeng Jianqiu was stunned and let go: "Oh, I forgot that you are an evil spirit. Come on, listen, it's quite simple. Take the thing with the dharma sticker and go to Yunmen, Zhongfu, Shenfeng, Zhangmen, If you go around the five major acupoints of Taiyi, you will be lucky. The seal will appear on the object. I have never seen anything with a real seal attached to it before. This is what an old friend of mine told me, saying that this thing has to wait for someone to form a pill before the seal can appear. , then you can try it yourself.”

"But..." He shook his head, "You are different. I don't know what you will do when the time comes. You can figure it out yourself. Anyway, it is just a seal to tell others that there is a real seal on it, and other sects are in charge. Everyone knows it when they see it.”

Li Wuxiang frowned: "It's gone? Is it really just a seal? What if someone else robs it? Is he also the leader of Ranshan Sect?"

Zeng Jianqiu looked at him for a while and sighed: "You told me that you were captured by Zhao Puppet in the past, but if you were really an ordinary person, you would not have this magnanimity. Then I will treat you as if you were living in seclusion somewhere before. Yes, I really don’t know anything. We have a life-long friendship this time, so I won’t ask any more questions.”

"Yes, it's really just a seal. If someone robs it, it's because you have no ability. That's how things are in this world. As for the use of this seal, let's put it this way, if you form an elixir one day, If you feel that you are successful and find a good place to establish a sect, you can tell others that I am the sect leader of Ranshan and I have the dharma support."

"As soon as this matter spreads, nearby sects may send people to see it. If you show the Dharma sticker in front of them and verify it is correct, then you are the leader of Ranshan Sect, and others will say nothing. But then, the nearby Taoism is profound If you know it and want to be the sect leader, what will you do if he comes to kill you? If you are killed and he robs you, then he is the sect leader.”

"If you kill him, then in the eyes of the Thirty-Six Sects, you will be exterminating demons and protecting the Tao, which is a good thing! But if you can't fight him and escape, then you can go to the nearby Thirty-Six Sects and tell them If you are invaded by evil sects, you are also from the Thirty-sixth Sect. If you ask for help, they will not hesitate to help you. "

"Do you understand? This is how the world is. That boy Zhao Qi is talking nonsense today, telling you that the law of the jungle is the law of the jungle. I won't say whether his other fallacies are bullshit. Anyway, this point is correct. Brother, today It's me, but if it were someone else, I might not be able to do anything now that I'm injured. But knowing that the golden knot is on you, you're like a magic weapon. Once the injury is healed, I'll come back to catch you and practice it. "

"Don't think it's just because you have a golden knot. Even if you don't, you, as a cultivator, will always have treasures in you. Just after meeting each other, you can't tell what special skills each has. Everyone is polite, but If someone accidentally finds out, I will immediately kill you and seize the treasure!"

Li Wuxiang thought about what this world would be like, but he didn't expect that it seemed to be a little more sinister than he thought... No wonder the town leaders like the Chen family and the Li family didn't care much about calling themselves family. The disciples go to practice.

"Killing here and there...and they all want to seek immortality. Aren't you afraid of retribution, karma and the like?"

"Hey, some people are afraid. The big sects and the Six Mysterious Sects lack everything. Naturally, they are afraid. If they don't do anything easily, they are afraid of ruining their Taoism. But do you think about who would walk in the rivers and lakes? Practitioners meditate every day vomit, How much can you improve, why should you spend your time on a bunch of mundane things? You just need magical materials for making elixirs, medicinal baths, and refining weapons. You are a small sect and have no blessed land. You can only go down the mountain to find a town. Made an offering."

"But there are limits to what mortals can offer, and you have to get some things by yourself. You keep getting them here and there, and accidentally your youth and longevity are about to end. What karma do you care about at this time? Let's continue practicing first! So you are walking in In the world of martial arts, the more you look at someone who is young, and the more you see someone who is old, the more careful you have to be."

He pointed at himself: "Just like me."

"You look like you're only in your early thirties."

Zeng Jianqiu laughed loudly: "You see, I am already over fifty years old. But I am not in a hurry. Zhao Puppet fell on me this time, but it has exhausted all my youth and longevity. I will wait a few more Nian, look at me, I look just like your town leader. Alas, he was still young when I met him. So many years have passed, and I almost didn’t remember him. "

Li Wuxiang was silent for a moment: "Zhao Qi told me that if your youth and life span are exhausted... you can no longer practice."

Zeng Jianqiu nodded: "That's right. As people age slowly, their innate energy is lost, and the ailments that ordinary people have will gradually appear. In the end, they are just a handful of loess, just like ordinary people."

"I……"

"Hey, you don't have to come with me to do this." Zeng Jianqiu waved his hand, "I never thought that I could become a land swordsman. When I entered Taoism, I was brought in in a daze. When I was in my thirties, I It's time to think about it. I don't like the world today, and I can't talk about it. What kind of saint are you? I just want to have a good time in this world. I have killed a lot of evil spirits over the years, and I have used a lot of the methods I used against you before. I can't say that I have a clear conscience, but I am better than him. Those other bastards are much better. Okay, I won’t lose anything in this life.”

Li Wuxiang sighed: "Brother Zeng, you..."

"Hey, didn't you tell me not to follow my mother-in-law and mother-in-law?"

"No, I want to say, in this case, can you teach me your flying sword technique?"

Zeng Jianqiu stared at him and said nothing.

Li Wuxiang spread his hands: "I understand, the realm of cultivation is one thing, and the art of killing is another. I think your method is particularly suitable for me. You can't bury your skills. Let's go If you are so destined, why don’t you teach me something?”

"Don't teach."

"Because I'm not Taiyi's swordsman? I might as well be. In this way, you Taiyi will have an additional sect master of Ranshan."

Zeng Jianqiu snorted angrily, stood up with his gun and walked towards Bishan: "Because you have evil intentions! Taiyi Dao will not accept disciples who have evil intentions!"

Li Wuxiang followed: "How did you say this?"

"Have you forgotten that you cut off my limbs and handed me over to Zhao Qi? Can a good person do this?"

"No, brother, if I remember correctly it was you who threatened me first? Isn't that what you did as a good person?"

"Yes, I also have evil intentions. My master made a mistake. But I know that my intentions are not right, but I don't know about you!"

Li Wuxiang sighed: "Okay, then where are you going now?"

Zeng Jianqiu said nothing and walked away holding his gun. Li Wuxiang walked beside him for a while, and when the two of them entered the dense forest and the sky above them began to be blocked, he said: "What's wrong? You're not going to be sulky just because I want you to teach me flying sword skills." people."

Zeng Jianqiu walked a few more steps, stood down and turned around. He thought for a while, raised his hand and patted his head hard: "You have to ask! Well, let me put it this way, aren't you curious why I followed Zhao Qi all the way here?"

"Isn't it because of the reward?"

"That was a matter of convenience." Zeng Jianqiu looked at him, "Let me tell you the truth. What I was looking for at first was not Zhao Qi, but Zhao Puppet. I was chasing Zhao Puppet, and then I caught up with Zhao Qi on the road. , followed him to find him again. If you ask me why I wanted to find Zhao Puppet, in fact, I went to Ranshan in the first place. I wanted something from Ranshan, but I didn’t want it. It was Taidao. , You Jiuyuan wants it, but it’s in your possession now.”

These are mostly narrative plots that explain the settings, so I won’t break them down separately to avoid everyone being upset. Today it’s still two-in-one.
