Xiao Buyi is a casual cultivator who has been wandering around with his grandfather since he can remember, making a living by telling people's fortunes.
His grandfather was not a monk, but an ordinary fortune teller, relying on ordinary martial arts to make a living. He studied with his grandfather since he was a child, and he also learned to observe colors, make insinuations, find out the root of things, and get to know the subtleties of these martial arts methods.
If this continues, there will be fewer monks and one more fortune teller in the world. However, when he was fifteen years old, things changed.
That year, his elderly grandfather fell ill and died. The young fortune teller spent all his money to arrange the funeral for his grandfather. Then he wore an old gown and carried the white banner of "The God of Commoners" and continued his life as a fortune teller.
However, his experience is far less than that of his grandfather, and more importantly, he is too young, so it is difficult for him to be recognized by people. The career of a fortune teller was bumpy and difficult, and he was so depressed at the beginning that he could hardly survive.
And just when he was considering whether to change his career to work part-time, he encountered an opportunity that changed the trajectory of his life while boarding in a dilapidated Taoist temple.
It was windy and rainy that day, and the roof of the Taoist temple was already dilapidated and could hardly cover the rain. He had to hide and hide, and finally hid behind the statue, because this was the only place where the roof of the entire Taoist temple was not broken.
The wind and rain became stronger and stronger, and he listened with fear as the statue began to creak, and finally fell down and broke into many pieces of mud.
In the pile of mud, he found several broken turtle shells and an iron bagua.
"In this way, I received the inheritance of Buyi's divine appearance, and from then on I changed my name to Xiao Buyi." Xiao Buyi's eyes showed nostalgia, "That was already twenty years ago."
"My career as a casual cultivator is difficult. It took me fifteen years to convert from Taoism to Taoism. After I entered Taoism, I encountered a huge obstacle - the Taoism of Buyi Shenxiang lineage has serious side effects.
”
Wu Jie was slightly startled, but he didn't expect that the world-famous "Boyi Shenxiang" lineage still had some problems.
In the past few years, he has come into contact with many casual cultivators in Sichen Town, and has learned many anecdotes about the cultivators. The legend of "Buyi Shenxiang" is one of them.
This is a sect of casual cultivators who are good at divination. They got their name because their successors in the past dynasties call themselves "the god of commoners".
The first-generation commoner god was named Li. His magic power was not very strong, but he had astonishing divine calculations. Many experts had asked him to calculate things, and they owed him favors because of this—
—The name Buyi Shenxiang came from him.
The most famous deed of Li Buyi was to provide fortune-telling to the abandoned swordsman disciple who was still a young casual cultivator at that time. The abandoned swordsman followed his advice and looked for opportunities. When he appeared again ten years later, he was already unparalleled in the world.
The unparalleled swordsman, with one sword in his hand, no one can stop him. He killed many powerful enemies. He even killed the famous evil sect in the world, the Ghost Sect, to scattered places with one sword, and destroyed the sect from then on.
But it was this incident that cost Li Buyi his life. The remnants of the Ghost Sect did not dare to take revenge on the sword-abandoning disciple, so they went to Li Buyi and killed him and his relatives and disciples to expiate the anger of annihilating the sect. The murder of Li Buyi's family angered the Abandoned Swordsmen, and this peerless swordsman began to hunt down the remnants of the Ghost Sect all over the world. In the past twenty years, at least five or six famous evil sects came to kill them because they wanted to protect the remnants of the Ghost Sect.
The people and the mountain gate were chopped into pieces.
But even so, Li Buyi couldn't survive, and the inheritance of Buyi's divine appearance has been ended.
However, Li Buyi is indeed Li Buyi. He had already known that he would be in danger, so he left many secret inheritances in various places. In the following hundreds of years, monks who claimed to be the descendants of "Buyi God" continued to appear, reaching the peak
There were even dozens of commoner gods at the same time.
In other words, all casual cultivators in the world who are good at divination like to be associated with the commoner god. This trend has even spread from the world of monks to the mortal world. Even many mortal fortune tellers will use the sign of the commoner god.
.
A casual cultivator who had a good personal relationship with Wu Jie once said with a smile: "If we gathered all the fortune tellers in the world, we would find at least a hundred commoner fortune tellers. If Senior Li had known that his name would be so famous during his lifetime,
, the inheritance will spread to this point, I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.”
"Then are these people really the inheritance of Senior Li?"
"It's weird if it's true! The Buyi Shenxiang back then was a living legend, and his predictions were always accurate. Now, if I do my own calculations, I'm afraid I'm more accurate than them."
"Huh? Do you also know how to calculate?"
"No, but I can talk nonsense."
Wu Jie smiled slightly, brought his thoughts back to his eyes, and asked: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, I don't want to inquire about the privacy of your inheritance, but I am curious about why you have lived in our Anfeng County for two years? I don't know what is worthy of your attention in this small place.
Of course, if you don’t want to say it, forget it. I have no intention of pursuing it.”
Xiao Buyi hesitated for a moment, but finally made up his mind.
"I want to find a noble person to help me accept the complete inheritance of Buyi Shenxiang!"
He stood up from his seat, walked out and bowed his head to Wu Jie: "Wu Daoyou is highly respected and blessed. He is exactly the noble person I am looking for. Xiao has taken the liberty of asking Wu Daoyou to help me!"
Wu Jie frowned and did not agree hastily.
The origin of Xiao Buyi is still uncertain, and whether he is good or evil is uncertain. How could he agree so easily?
What's more, even if Xiao Buyi is telling the truth and he is really the successor of Buyi Shenxiang, Wu Jie would not dare to get involved in this matter easily. The inheritance of Buyi Shenxiang lineage is not a trivial matter, and there will definitely be many things involved.
A lot of troubles. He is going back to his hometown to visit relatives. After the visit, he will return to his master's school to cultivate. There is no need to get involved in irrelevant things!
Xiao Buyi saw that he didn't speak for a long time, so he straightened up with a long sigh and sat down unhappy.
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, I'd better tell the truth." Wu Jie hesitated for a while, and finally said calmly, "I'm not interested in the inheritance of your commoner gods, and I don't want to be involved in such a thing. I have my own
The sect, my own Taoism. I don’t need to look for other opportunities - at least not yet."
Xiao Buyi nodded, indicating that he understood what he meant.
"I know you must have many difficulties and troubles. But you and I are strangers, and we can only be acquaintances at best. I can't take risks just to help you - the weight of these four words 'Buyi Shenxiang',
Which cultivator in the world doesn’t know this?"
He spoke very sincerely and calmly, without any embarrassment.
Although it is said that "you don't hit the smiling man", if you can get others to take risks to help just by asking sincerely, then things in the world would be too simple.
Cultivating Taoism is a road against heaven, and there are dangers and thorns on every step. Even if Wu Jie comes from a famous sect like Qingyang Temple, and has treasures such as the World of Heavenly Books with him, he does not dare to say that he will always be able to turn danger into good. If
He really didn't want to take risks for no apparent reason unless it was particularly necessary.
He can take risks to save people, take risks to eliminate evil, or take risks to pursue vital opportunities, but he is unwilling to take risks for someone who is just an acquaintance!
Xiao Buyi obviously anticipated this situation. He smiled bitterly and took out a bamboo sign.
"I originally wanted to keep it to save my life in critical moments..." He rubbed the bamboo sign with great reluctance, but finally made up his mind and handed it to Wu Jie, "This is the fortune-telling that the Patriarch of your sect asked Patriarch Li to predict."
I will leave behind a token as a reward. Can you please help me, fellow Taoist?"
Wu Jie was stunned for a moment, then reached out to take the bamboo sign.
As soon as he got the bamboo card, he knew that it was indeed genuine - the magic power flowing in the bamboo card was the sect's unique Taishang Nine Transformations Alchemy Sutra!
As a supreme magic method that directly points to the golden elixir road, the Taishang Nine Transformations Alchemy Sutra is only inherited in Qingyang Temple. Apart from this, there is no other sect in the world that has this method. The magic power contained in this bamboo tablet is countless.
It cannot be faked, it is indeed our exclusive.
He sighed, took out the invisible sword, wrapped the bamboo tokens in the sword energy, and then activated the spell to let the flying sword fly to the sect with the bamboo tokens, asking the elders to verify the authenticity.
The flying sword method of sending letters is extremely fast. In less than an hour, the reply came from the door.
The reply was sent by Shaoguang Zhenren himself, and the content was very simple, just a few sentences.
"This is the handiwork of Jin Quan, the Supreme Patriarch of our sect. In the past, before the Patriarch overcame the tribulation, he told his descendants to try to repay the cause and effect for him if there was an opportunity. The Patriarch Jinquan was able to overcome the tribulation and ascend, and the Buyi God helped a lot in this matter.
There may be risks, but it is also a rare opportunity. Wu Jie, you can make your own decision."
After Wu Jie read the reply, he began to think deeply.
The meaning of Master Shaoguang is very clear: first, this thing is genuine; second, our sect does owe Buyi Shenxiang a favor, and we will repay it if we have the chance; third, although it is risky to do this favor, if Xiao Buyi really
Being able to obtain a complete inheritance of the commoner god and become a real commoner god will definitely bring great benefits to Wu Jie.
Wu Jie couldn't help but be moved by the words "The Patriarch Jinquan was able to overcome the calamity and ascend to the sky, and the Buyi God helped him a lot".
"Master! Why are you still hesitating? The opportunity has come to you. It would be a pity to miss it!" Seeing that he was still hesitating, Jasmine hurriedly advised, "It doesn't matter whether you can help or not. There is nothing to lose by agreeing! Anyway, we are here.
It’s up to you to decide what to do when the time comes!”
"Fourth... I don't think you need any chance..." Du Ruoze advised, "Look, you have the world of the Book of Heaven, the Zhengfa of the Ministry of Fire, and the senior divine king who was born in the same world as you.
The remaining three chapters of Tianwen... After all these years, you haven't even been able to comprehend the three chapters of Tianwen, so what's the use of asking for more opportunities?"
"It's just because I haven't figured out the clues in the three chapters of Tianwen that I'm looking for other opportunities!"
"Isn't that too greedy?"
"The brave will be starved to death, and the timid will be starved to death! If you want to be immortal, you must be good at seizing every opportunity to fish for it!"
"Whether it's starving to death or starving to death, isn't it the same word as death?"
"Hey! Don't be so literal-minded!"
Jasmine and Du Ruo argued endlessly, while Wu Jie looked at Zhen Guang's words over and over again and pondered over and over again.
In the end, he finally made up his mind.
Whether it’s from the standpoint of the sect or your own needs, since the opportunity comes to you, there is no reason to turn it down!
"I agreed to this!" He raised his head and looked at Xiao Buyi, who was beaming with joy, and said seriously, "Now, please tell me the details."
