Shushan is located among the high mountains in western Sichuan. The peaks are soaring in the sky, like floating clouds. It is said that it is a resort bestowed by the immortal family on the human world.
Since the establishment of the Shushan sect, successive generations of disciples have practiced immortality diligently, entered the world to subdue demons, and imprisoned demons in the Demon Locking Tower to protect the world from evildoers. They have won the love of the people and are even revered as gods in Shu.
"Junior Brother Shou Fang, I have decided not to fight monsters with you anymore. You can't even tell the difference between a snail spirit and a crab monster, and you are also a road fool, causing us to walk in the same place for ten days!" Chang Yin complained.
As a disciple of Shushan, most of the time is spent in the sect doing daily homework, practicing swordsmanship, meditating, and doing some chores: taking care of the medicine garden, cleaning, etc.
Of course, you can also accept simple demon-killing tasks issued by some elders, and accumulate merit in exchange for elixirs to speed up your cultivation progress.
There are only a few hundred people in the entire Shu Mountain who have truly entered the realm of cultivation, but Chang Yin has amazing talent. He has reached the ninth level of Qi training in just a dozen years. He is only one step away from becoming a high-ranking foundation-building master and has a chance to be selected by the elders.
As a disciple who entered the house.
In order to be favored by the elders, Chang Yin thought of going out to learn the experience of catching monsters from his junior brother Shou Fang in order to increase his actual combat ability. As a result, this guy's monster self-judgment was wrong, and he was almost killed.
Now the two of them have lost their way in these high mountains and have no idea of the direction. Now they can only hope to walk casually, find a populated place, and let others show them the way.
Fortunately, both of them are accomplished Qi practitioners. Even in the mountains and forests, they still have some basic spells: insect repellent, water purification charm, and fire magic. Survival is still no problem.
What I'm afraid of is encountering some old monsters. With their strength, they are basically like meat buns beating dogs.
Hey, I hope I don’t meet any powerful monsters!
"Hey, senior brother Chang Yin, it's time for dinner!" Shou Fang said with a flattering smile.
Behind him was not only a huge crab as a trophy, but also several wild boar legs, spices, wild vegetables, etc.
Chang Yin was in a relaxed mood, carrying nothing but a sword.
What he is most famous for in Shushan is actually not his talent in cultivation. After all, senior brother Xu Changqing's talents are truly astonishing. What the disciples love most is that senior brother Chang Yin has a photographic memory and loves to read in the Sutra Pavilion.
Therefore, Chang Yin knew a little bit about any questions the juniors encountered, any unfamiliar monsters, common sense, allusions, anecdotes about Shu Mountain, and all kinds of strange skills and tricks.
Of course, Chang Yin has a bad habit that is also criticized by his junior brothers, that is, he loves to gossip. If anyone has any scandal, the whole Shushan will know about it in the blink of an eye.
He clearly promised to keep his mouth shut.
Chang Yin took a look at the sky and calculated with his fingers: "It's indeed meal time. Let's eat a roasted wild boar leg and stew a wild vegetable and mushroom soup for lunch today to relieve our tiredness."
"Good!" the defender said happily.
It was a hard life on the mountain. Every day he had either green vegetables and tofu or cabbage and tofu, and he even had to practice the art of fasting. He had always heard that Senior Brother Chang Yin was an excellent cook, but he had to spend a lot of effort to trick him... No, I invited him down.
Chang Yin took a suspicious look and said, "You took me around the mountains for ten days. Could it be intentional?"
"Haha, how is that possible? I really can't tell the difference between east, west and north." Shouzheng explained quickly.
Of course he could tell them clearly at first, but now after wandering around for more than ten days, he really doesn't know where he is going. But it's not a big problem. After disappearing for half a month, the elders must have used magic to lead them back.
After saying that, Shouzheng began to prepare hard, collecting firewood and water, breaking stones with a magic sword that was as sharp as clay to make pots and bowls, cleaning up the ingredients, etc.
As for Chang Yin, he meditates and regulates his breath. This is the status of the top chef in Shushan!
Half an hour later, a burst of fragrance spread.
"Suck it, it smells so good!"
"Meow meow!" A little yellow cat appeared instantly, lying directly in front of the pot, stretching out its paws and getting ready to eat.
"Hey, where did this kitten come from? Let's go and drink milk from you." Shouzheng directly pulled the little yellow cat's paws away.
The little yellow cat was angry, grinning, showing its teeth and raising its paws.
"Meow wow!"
"Hey, you still dare to show your teeth to this Sword Immortal? Be careful. I'll catch a snake later and clean you up. Then I'll ask senior brother Chang Yin to cook me a dragon-tiger fight. Tsk, tsk, suck!" Shouzheng laughed.
.
It's just a kitten, but with his fifth level of Qi training, he can be destroyed with a snap of his fingers.
Miao Le:???
Want to eat cats? You already have a way to die!
"Roar!"
A normal punch, unlimited combos!
"Snap, snap, snap!"
Shouzheng's vision went dark, and then he felt pain all over his body at the same time.
"Ah! Senior Brother Chang Yin, help me!"
Chang Yin frowned.
This cat is extremely fast, and there is no trace of demonic aura in its body. It doesn’t even react at all to Shushan’s special demon-pointing compass. Then there are only two situations, first: this is a fairy beast, and second: this demon is extremely powerful.
Tall, far higher than the two of them.
"Qiang!"
Draw your sword!
No matter what the situation, he would not allow his junior brother to be bullied.
"Monster, let go of my junior brother!" Chang Yin shouted and rushed forward.
"Dang, clang, bang, bang, bang, thump, ah!"
Half an hour later.
The two brothers, who had bruises on their noses and faces, sat next to the stone pot and watched helplessly as the little yellow cat drank the last mouthful of soup, not even leaving any of the bottom of the pot for them.
"Suck~"
After eating and drinking, the little yellow cat jumped on Chang Yin's shoulder and asked enthusiastically.
"Meow?"
【Are you my shit-sweeper? 】
Chang Yin was surprised: "You can talk?"
Any monster that can refine cross bones and speak is basically a thousand-year-old monster. It seems that their brothers are in bad luck today.
"Senior brother, what are you talking about?" Shouzheng was a little confused.
"Can't you hear this cat talking?" Chang Yin wondered.
"No."
Chang Yin was startled, then turned to look at the little yellow cat on his shoulder, which was already dazedly preparing to rest. This small figure looked like a cub, and then his heart moved.
The mythical beast recognizes its master!
Having read a lot of books in Shushan, he naturally knows a lot of anecdotes about the world of immortality. Among them, those extraordinary people who ascended to the world of gods basically have a lot of adventures.
As for the strange encounters with strange beasts, he only remembered one. Three hundred years ago, a Taoist priest named Gu Liufang married a descendant of Nuwa. In a short period of time, his cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds.
Of course, the union between a human and a demon is not tolerated by heaven, and it ended in death.
And this kitten can easily defeat the two of them at a young age. It is invulnerable to water, fire, and swords, and at least has foundation-building combat capabilities. Moreover, it has no demonic aura on its body, so it may be a legendary mythical beast.
The most important thing is that this cat is a male! It is not afraid of being gossiped about. If it is subdued, then in the future, when he becomes a disciple of the housekeeper and goes out to subjugate demons, wouldn't that be a great help?
Of course, human-monsters have different paths. According to Shushan's observation, demonic aura and popularity are naturally opposed. Even if some demons are not malicious at all and stay with people for a long time, the demonic aura will invade the body and damage the essence.
Therefore, we must first determine whether the cat is a fairy or a monster. If it does not eat blood, it swallows the essence of the sun and moon, and the aura of heaven and earth, it is a fairy.
Then, look carefully and feel.
This cat is no more than the size of a palm. It is young and delicate. It has a golden body and soft hair. Its blue, gem-like eyes are drowsily opening and closing as if it is dozing. Its facial features are exquisite and cute, and its little tail swings around easily. It is very cute.
happy.
No matter how you look at it, it is a kitten.
It is recorded in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas·Xishan Jing": "There is a beast in Yiwang Mountain. It looks like a raccoon, with one eye and three tails. It is called 虙 [huān]. Its sound is like a hundred sounds. It can be used to ward off evil, and it can be subdued."
hate."
"The Book of Mountains and Seas·Zhongshan Jing" records: "Forty miles to the north, there is Mount Huo, which has many trees (gu). There is a beast, which looks like a raccoon, and has a white tail with a hyena [liè], which is called "朏朏"
【pèi】"Nursing it can relieve worries."
Without the three tails, what would it be like? And with such a big body and such strength, the bloodline must be strong. If it is properly trained, it may be like the water spirit beast of Nanzhao Kingdom in the future, tamed by the Nuwa clan and protect hundreds of people in Nanzhao.
Year.
But what if it’s a scam?
The demons are treacherous and have used countless methods over the years to deal with Shushan disciples like them, forcing and seducing them in order to release the Demon Emperor from the Demon Locking Tower and cause harm to the world.
Forget it, take it back and show it to the leader!
No matter what, no matter what kind of monster it is, as long as it is brought back to Shushan, there will be no way to hide it in front of the omnipotent leader.
At that time, if there is fraud, just lock the cat in the Demon Locking Tower. No matter how powerful he is, can he still do whatever he wants in the Demon Locking Tower and in front of the demon-turning water like he did with them?
Haha, impossible!
…
Five days later, Chang Yin and Shouzheng had obviously lost weight. Anyone who spent six hours every day looking for food, making delicious food, and then watching the cat arrogantly finish the food would lose weight.
Fortunately, the two of them are Qi practitioners. They were adopted by Shushan when they were young. Before they even learned to walk, they first learned to practice Qi. During the cold and summer, they never slackened off for more than ten years.
Hard work pays off, this advanced level of Qi training can make them hungry for many more days.
Not a big problem.
"Dong dong~"
The jade talisman around Chang Yin's waist suddenly began to tremble.
Seeing the little yellow cat sleeping soundly on his shoulder, Chang Yin knew that as long as the cub was asleep, let alone talking, even if lightning struck his face, it would have no effect.
Picking up the jade talisman with his left hand, Chang Yin muttered something in his mouth, and drew the talisman with his right hand.
"The reason why heaven and earth can last forever is because they do not generate themselves, so they can live forever."
After a while.
The brilliance on the jade talisman circulated, and a void mirror gradually appeared. Opposite it was the senior brother of the Shushan Sect: Xu Changqing.
"Junior brother, where are you? Do you need me to report to the leader and apply for assistance?" The senior brother's expression was indifferent, but his tone was full of concern.
The elders all said that the senior brother was born with the seed of Taoism, his temperament was in line with the way of heaven, his Taoism was natural, and he had the appearance of becoming an immortal.
Chang Yin quickly said: "Senior Brother, we are lost now. Please use the jade talisman to help us find the way. Moreover, Junior Brother Shouzheng and I picked up a cub in the mountains. Its strength is unpredictable. I hope you can ask the leader to come out.
Check to see if you are qualified to become a beast master."
"good!"
After a moment, Xu Changqing's image disappeared, and two points appeared in the void, one was their location, and the other was the location of Shushan.
As for the route, it doesn't matter. They are immortal cultivators. Although they have not yet reached the foundation building stage and can fly with swords for a long time, it is trivial to cross the river with light skills like martial arts people.
Shushan, we are back!
…
Shushan Sword Sect, Taiqing Palace.
At the door, the headmaster Qingwei, with white hair and a childlike face, a fairy-like spirit, stood quietly at the door holding a floating dust in his hand.
More than twenty years ago, the Heavenly Demon Emperor led the Demon Realm to attack the human world. Shushan was the first to bear the brunt, and almost all of his disciples were killed or injured. Now, this new generation of disciples has been watched by their five senior brothers, so they naturally take it seriously.
Chang Yin was dressed in white and greeted him respectfully.
"Introductory disciple of Shushan, Chang Yin, pays homage to the leader."
Qingwei held her long beard in her hand, smiled and nodded: "Get up, this time you have completed your experience down the mountain, you have completed your merits, and then you can practice with peace of mind and prepare to break through and build the foundation.
After establishing the foundation, it can be considered the beginning of our cultivation."
"Yes, Master."
Then Qingwei curiously looked at the little yellow cat on Chang Yin's shoulder. As a strange beast, this little guy came to the Shushan Sword Sect, which is known as the demon slayer. He was not afraid at all, but instead looked around curiously.
There is no fear in the big blue eyes.
Qingwei smiled.
It can only be said that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.
"Master, can you tell what kind of cub this is? This little guy is greedy and playful, has amazing strength, and is invulnerable to swords. The juniors who came to tease this cat during the climb just now were all beaten.
Fortunately, his attack was serious, and everyone should be able to recover in an hour or two." Chang Yin asked for advice.
Qingwei frowned and looked carefully, her eyes flashing from time to time.
More than ten years ago, the Heavenly Demon Emperor attacked the human world, and Shushan was about to be exterminated. Their five brothers had no choice but to practice the Shushan Forbidden Book: the Supreme Purity Technique. In a short period of time, their cultivation level increased a thousand times, and they defeated the Heavenly Demon Emperor.
, lock him in the Demon Locking Tower.
And the five of them have now become the strongest elders in Shushan's recorded history.
However, with his current level of cultivation, he is completely unable to see through the origin, cultivation, and identity of this cat. However, after practicing the Purity Technique, his mind becomes clear, without any distracting thoughts, and he possesses a sense of perception that far exceeds that of ordinary people.
In harmony with the way of heaven.
In his mind, this cat would be of great benefit to Shushan.
for a long time.
"Master?" Chang Yin was a little confused.
"Haha, since you want to adopt it, then adopt it. I, Shushan, will not be short of food for a spiritual beast." Qing said with a smile.
"But, Master, this kitten is so powerful at such a young age. It may belong to the royal family of monsters. If it grows up in the future, it may become a serious problem for our human race." Chang Yin was a little embarrassed.
This cat is so powerful, and it beat the juniors all over the place. It is indeed handsome when you take it out, but you are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.
Qingwei flicked the fly whisk, shook her head, and turned around.
"All things carry yin and embrace yang, and inject qi into harmony. They know their maleness and guard their females. They live in a good place, their hearts are kind, and they are kind and benevolent. You idiot!"
Chang Yin scratched his head, grabbed the two front legs of the little yellow cat, raised them to his eyes, and looked at each other.
The little yellow cat blinked its big blue eyes, stretched out its pink tongue and twisted it around its mouth: "Meow~"
【Is the meal ready?】
Chang Yin:......
He suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.
