The great formation of mountains suddenly shattered.
Diancang Mountain, which was originally shrouded in black mist, gradually opened a gap from the top and spread to the edge of the formation.
The spiritual energy of the mountains and rivers that was originally sealed in the Diancang Mountain by the formation instantly spread out in all directions like the sea water in a collapsed dam.
The sky is filled with green aura, and from time to time flocks of tired birds that have been trapped in the mountains for many days fly out of the mountains and forests.
The jade tablet that read "Heaven is calm, all bodies obey orders" flew back to Xu Hun's hand. He smiled contemptuously, stomped on the ground with his foot, and shouted: "Get out of here!"
The person who had been hiding in a dark corner and peeping was suddenly frightened. He twisted his body and was about to turn into the wind to escape. As a result, his body sank and was pinned to the spot by an invisible pressure, unable to move.
Xu Hun circled around the tiger demon that had just transformed, touching here and looking there. He raised his head and said to the tiger demon with a smile: "You just transformed, right? Your foundation is not stable.
Ah, I still have to practice."
The tiger demon stepped into the seventh realm of the Qi Refiner and took the form of a tall and straight white-faced scholar.
The white-faced scholar was sweating profusely. The calm and composed young man in front of him was by no means an ordinary person.
While Xu Hun turned his back to talk to Du Jiangchuan and Cao Yun, he suddenly looked ferocious and let out a thunderous roar from his mouth. He finally broke free from the restraints, then shot out a tiger claw and hit Xu Hun.
Confused.
"Master Xu! Be careful!" Cao Yun and Du Jiangchuan said in unison.
There was a hint of expectation in the eyes of the two of them, but they were soon disappointed.
The black tiger that showed its original shape roared low before even landing a palm, and its body actually froze in mid-air, motionless.
Xu Hun leisurely floated around behind him and grabbed the back of the tiger demon's neck. The latter's huge body was getting smaller and smaller, and it looked like a little kitten being held in Xu Hun's hands. He lifted the tiger demon to the
In front of me: "Kitten, let's make a deal."
Two days have passed since Xia Ze entered the scroll. On the morning of the third day, He Xu, Xu Xiuzhu, and a group of people from Lu Yixiang were eating breakfast in the dining room. Suddenly, a middle-aged escort who was in a hurry rushed over.
He came in and shouted happily: "Great, great, the mountain sealing formation is broken, we can go back!"
For a moment, the crowd seemed to explode.
"This sealing formation has been entrenched on Diancang Mountain for two days. Now it is suddenly opened. Did you really miss it?" someone asked.
The man who reported the message glared at him, grabbed his hand and ran out: "You will know when you come here and take a look."
The crowd followed the man outside the house, and the gray sky no longer existed. In the eastern sky, a rising sun slowly rose, and with the sound of chicken, the haze that had been accumulated in everyone's hearts for many days began to dissipate.
, the dawn of dawn has arrived.
In the past few days, the atmosphere in the temple has not been very optimistic. On the one hand, there are many businessmen and escorts who have to make money to live, and the goods they have hoarded are getting damaged day by day, for fear of delaying the deadline and affecting their livelihood;
As for the fear of the tiger demon, the bodyguards are better off. Most of them are warriors who exercise their physical strength. They probably know that this tiger demon is powerful. At worst, they can fight together to fight the tiger demon. Winning or losing depends on God's will. The group of merchants will be miserable. They are frightened and sleep.
If it doesn’t taste good and doesn’t taste good, everyone’s face will be covered with a layer of haze.
In the past two days, more and more people have come to the temple to recite Buddhist scriptures with the novices, praying for the Buddha's light to protect them in times of crisis. In addition, in the past few days, the novices have been sincere and have no regard for past grudges.
He entertained them, so the relationship eased a little.
"Everyone, be quiet for a moment!" Lu Yixiang took over and said loudly.
Everyone was full of doubts, but they heard Lu Yixiang say: This sealing formation was sealed for two consecutive days, why was it suddenly withdrawn today? I suspect that the tiger demon did not dare to approach Taoxi Temple and wanted to
I will take this opportunity to trick you into leaving the temple, and then secretly murder you."
The crowd began to whisper, and some people had frightened looks on their faces again.
"Of course, this is just my guess, and it is somewhat inappropriate. However, it is best to be careful when traveling in the world. I advise everyone to be cautious and not to fill the tiger demon's belly in vain. As a temporary solution, it is better to stay in this courtyard for another day.
Small meeting."
Someone stepped forward, fumbled around in the package, and took out a crumpled talisman: "Old man, as you said before, this talisman can be returned at its original price as long as it is kept properly, right?"
He Xu looked at the crumpled yellow talisman lying in the man's palm, and cursed: "Hey, I asked you to keep this talisman carefully for self-defense. Now that it's wrinkled, you want to return it at the original price. How embarrassed are you!"
"Who knows if your talisman is useful? Maybe this old man drew it casually to make money. It's just a pile of waste paper." The man's nostrils were turned upward.
"You! Xiu's nonsense ruined my master's reputation!" Xu Xiuzhu was furious. Just as he was about to step forward to argue, Lu Yixiang pushed him back behind him.
"I'm sorry, young man, you have made your talisman so tattered. It is impossible to refund the original price. Maybe we can negotiate for 40% of the price, how about it?" Lu Yixiang asked calmly.
The man opposite snorted from his nostrils: "Forty percent is forty percent, I guess I was deceived and believed a deceitful old man like you..."
Lu Yixiang took out the copper coins from his arms, placed them in the man's palm, and took back the crumpled talisman.
"Anyone who wants to return the talisman, come here. As long as you keep it properly, I will refund the original price." Lu Yixiang took out the wine gourd and drank sips. This temple is a place of Buddhism. No meat or fish can be seen, and no drinking water is allowed.
, he has been suffocated these past few days.
"I have to add that if you return this talisman and step out of this temple, you will be responsible for your own life and death." He put away the gourd and added.
More than half of the people who came to withdraw the talismans were smiling on the surface, but when they were far away, they all had to curse, "This old man's mouth is really unlucky, he must be in collusion with this temple, this is already relatively restrained."
Xu Xiuzhu, Yan Yingluo, and He Xu all heard the unpleasant words.
Several times Xu Xiuzhu wanted to step forward to defend his master, but Yan Yingluo stopped him.
It’s hard to be a good person, and it’s even harder to be a good person. There is a saying that loyal words are harsh to the ears. Many words full of good intentions are said in a not pleasant way. This is not necessarily worse than good words, because in the hearts of people with evil intentions, your
With good intentions, he sketched it casually based on his narrow speculation.
Dou Mien, Sheng Miqiu.
"I should have said this, Xiao Lu, why are you doing this?" Liu Qingya appeared quietly beside Lu Yixiang, with a look of guilt on his face.
"They don't even believe me, an old man who has been around for many years, so how can they believe Aunt Qing? Besides, Aunt Qing, you look like this now..." Lu Yixiang's evil smile was exactly the same naughty look in Liu Qingya's memory.
Teenager appearance.
Liu Qingya made a noise, smiled and pinched Lu Yixiang's ears: "You still think you are too old for Aunt Qing?"
"Not old, Aunt Qing is not old at all. It's just that after so many years, Aunt Qing is still looking for the reincarnation of that hunter?" Lu Yixiang asked, tilting her head.
Liu Qingya's face was a little sad, as if she was trapped in endless memories. According to the records from various academies over the years, the person who died was most likely to be reincarnated in the place where he died, but she had waited for so many years.
, I haven’t been able to wait.
"Little guy, this is the talisman they returned earlier, almost half of it. The loss will be deducted from my share and returned to you." Lu Yixiang returned a handful of talismans and a few coins to He Xu.
Most of the returned talismans had illegible handwriting, and the original delicate red sand was ground into a paste. Therefore, Lu Yixiang actually advanced a lot of money and did not let Xia Ze lose too much.
"Grandpa Lu, don't you feel bad for having so much money?" He Xu asked.
"I feel bad, why don't you feel bad? I thought I would make a lot of money, but in the end I lost everything." Lu Yixiang led them back to the temple slowly with a smile on his face.
"Then you still help them advance money?" He Xu was puzzled.
Lu Yixiang raised his eyebrows: "Xia Ze, this kid, can deceive others, but he can't deceive me. He sold these talismans to this group of merchants and bodyguards. In fact, he made no money at all, or even lost money. When he first came out of the world, this
It is extremely difficult to be enthusiastic and have someone to protect you. Even if you suffer a loss, you can learn a lesson, but it should not be done in this way. Stop the loss in time and you can learn a lesson."
"There are many good people in the world," he turned around and said with a smile, "Little guy, if you really feel sorry for yourself, let me take a few sips of the wine from the jar."
He Xu smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll get it right away."
He Xu plunged into the courtyard gate, his little figure crawling quickly.
Lu Yixiang originally wanted to say that the whole jar was given to him, but then he thought about it. It was like drinking guillotine. This man still needs to have some hope, otherwise his heart will be empty...
In the end, more than 70% of the people still insisted on leaving the temple and heading to Qingshen County or directly back to Yuqiao Town.
In the Buddhist hall, the youngest novice monk was sitting on a little pony, with his elbows on his knees and his chin on his palms. He was worried, and his small face was full of bitterness that did not suit his age, which was a bit cute.
The master has left, and most of the temple has been destroyed. Now most of the bodyguards and merchants have left, and the whereabouts of the tiger demon are unknown. What should we do if he suddenly comes to kill us?
"Hey, little bald...little monk, what are you doing, with a grimace on your face?" He Xu put his hands behind his back and spoke with a mellow voice like Lu Yixiang, without any hint of chivalry.
On the contrary, there is something soft and artificial about being old-fashioned.
The young monk glanced at him, stood up and said: "Donor, now that the bodyguards and merchants have left, the tiger demon has not yet found any trace. If he kills here after you leave, then we
It’s so miserable.”
"Oh! What are you afraid of? You have Xia...and I am He Xu!" He Xu suddenly felt heroic in front of the frightened little novice monk, and his thin chest was slapped with a muffled sound.
"You? Donor, where is your brother? I haven't seen him for two or three days."
The little novice monk looked at He Xu up and down, his face full of disbelief. Suddenly he remembered the young man who defeated Vichuluo and saved everyone from fire and water, and he was overjoyed.
"He...he left earlier, but it's okay if he leaves. Young Master, I am a mountain god with peerless martial arts and can capture dragons and snakes with one hand!"
The contempt in the little novice's eyes made He Xu feel uncomfortable. He became angry and yelled: "Hey, what's your name!"
"My name is Jueming." The little novice monk said honestly and softly.
"Why don't you call me help? Hahaha." He Xu laughed loudly, then stopped suddenly and put on a righteous look, "Wait for me! I will let you see the power of the gods on the mountain! Wait.
When you meet, don’t be so scared that you kneel down and kowtow, begging me to accept you as my disciple.”
Without waiting for the young novice to react, he hurriedly ran back to the meditation room where he lived, took out the sticks and the brick in the basket, and ran back to the young novice Jueming in a hurry.
He drank and screamed strangely, and in the courtyard covered with incense and ashes, he used a set of sword skills like crazy. The sword moves were chaotic and he hit them wherever he thought.
Not only did Jueming not show any admiration, but he also had more and more doubts on his face.
"Young man, I can't even defeat you." He Xu thought to himself.
His sword moves became more and more random, and finally he simply rolled to the ground, slashing wildly.
Suddenly, incense ashes scattered everywhere in the temple, and smoke filled the air. The pilgrims who had come to approach the incense were attracted by He Xu rolling on the ground in the courtyard and came to watch.
"It seems that the incense ashes in the courtyard won't need to be cleaned for another two days." Another novice monk glanced at He Xu, who was covered in gray, and thought to himself.
He Xu secretly glanced at Jueming's expression from time to time, but did not show his admiration for him. He was a little disappointed, stood up, and laughed awkwardly: "I originally wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but little novice monk, you don't
You know how to cherish, well, I’ve shown my real skills, I won’t pretend anymore! Xiaobai!”
He Xu clapped his hands and kicked up a stream of smoke. He coughed himself, feeling a little embarrassed.
Among the puzzled eyes of the pilgrims, novices, and Jueming who were watching the fun, a little white donkey, probably as tall as He Xu, slowly walked out of the inner courtyard and stopped beside He Xu.
Just seeing He Xu covered in incense ash, he immediately understood what medicine was being sold in the baby gourd. He rolled his eyes, turned his head, and ran straight back to the hospital.
Not long before the pride on He Xu's face showed, he heard loud laughter coming from the Buddhist hall. He was so embarrassed that he was thinking about finding an opportunity to run away. As a result, Xu Xiuzhu walked here from the other courtyard and saw
With this look on his face, He Xu was about to laugh out loud, but He Xu pushed him with a stick and grabbed his sleeve with one hand.
"Hey kid, you're like this...won't your parents beat you up at home..." Xu Xiuzhu suppressed his laughter and felt extremely uncomfortable.
"My father and mother died early, don't talk about it now, help us in the world!" He quietly pointed to the wall behind him, glanced at the little novice monk secretly, and begged, "Brother Xu, whether I can keep my reputation in this world depends on you.
La, I owe you a favor!"
"You are the only one who still has a reputation... I guess I'm afraid of you." Xu Xiuzhu sneered, suddenly coming into contact with the prayers on the boy's face and the bricks on his waist...
"Look! There's a tiger demon!" He Xu suddenly pointed at a certain place and shouted in horror.
The crowd suddenly panicked and looked in that direction. At this moment, Xu Xiuzhu grabbed He Xu's sleeve and swung He Xu high up the wall.
Xu Xiuzhu quickly stepped aside, pretending to be shocked and said: "Ah! This little master is indeed very skilled."
There was thunderous applause, the merchants were very amused by him, and Jueming also opened his mouth and exclaimed.
Standing on the top of the wall, He Xu imitated Xia Ze in making a graceful sword stance, which was very useful. However, in a daze, his feet became unsteady and he fell straight towards the outside of the courtyard.
Plop! There was a sound of falling into the water.
"Kid!" Xu Xiuzhu was startled.
"There seems to be a cesspit behind that!" Jueming exclaimed.
"Brother Xu! Save me!" He Xu shouted in horror.
"You brat! You want to take advantage of me when I'm not paying attention and throw shit in my face, right? I won't be fooled by you!" Xu Xiuzhu laughed loudly.
"Brother Xu! There is a situation! If you delay any longer, it will be too late. Hurry." He Xu's voice became increasingly anxious.
Xu Xiuzhu's expression changed, and he jumped up onto the wall. He Xu did not fall into the cesspool, but the brick he carried with him. He stood on the ridge of the field and was fine.
But in the distance, in the sky, a dense group of things flew over, accompanied by noisy calls, like sparrows. But as they got closer and closer to Taoxi Temple, Xu Xiuzhu seemed to have something in his mind, exploding.
Lost.
It was a group of dark, human-shaped spirits with bat fangs and wings, slowly coming to kill them.
Xu Xiuzhu grabbed He Xu tightly, flew up to the wall, and shouted: "The tiger demon is counterattacking! Everyone is on alert! Pick up your weapons and follow me to defend against the enemy."
Outside the temple gate, there were several men with bruises all over their bodies. They all clutched a yellow talisman in their hands and slapped the temple gate fiercely.
"Help! Help us! The tiger monster is coming! Dear immortal masters, please save us!" The men begged pitifully.
The courtyard door creaked open, and Lu Yixiang and Liu Qingya stood in the courtyard, asking anxiously: "Didn't you go down the mountain together? Why are you back again?"
A man cried out and fell to the ground, hugging Lu Yixiang's thigh: "Master Immortal, I was wrong. Please sell me another talisman to save your life!"
Lu Yixiang didn't have any extra talismans in his hand, so he naturally didn't want to get entangled with him. He threw him away and picked up another man: "Tell me, what's going on!"
The man's body was shaking uncontrollably: "Senior Lu, we just took advantage of the bright sun to go down the mountain together, but it suddenly turned dark halfway, and many winged, fanged monsters flew out of the woods, and they could also suck people.
Blood, we couldn't defeat them. Fortunately, the talisman in our hand emitted a golden light at the critical moment, and we found a chance and escaped back. Everyone else died."
"It seems that Mr. Xia's talismans are really not simple." He raised his head and saw that the courtyard walls and hidden areas were covered with various talismans. As long as he hid inside, there was nothing he could do about them even if they were gone for a while.
"Be careful!" Liu Qingya shouted, and a black figure fell from the sky. With a pop of sharp claws, it pierced the pipa bone of the man who retreated from the talisman. As the man screamed in despair, he grabbed him into the sky at an extremely fast speed.
Lu Yixiang cursed an evil beast, quickly raised the gun and stepped forward, tiptoeing a little, leaping high, and hundreds of dazzling gun flowers were stabbed out in an instant. The bat spirit was very cunning, and pushed the man in his hand against the gun flowers.
.
"Huh, I've known you were going to do this!" Lu Yixiang sneered, and the hundreds of spear shadows he shot out perfectly avoided the man, as if he had grown a head, and they all stabbed at the bat's charming body.
wing.
In mid-air, a brilliant blood flower exploded.
The man fell to the ground, and after a while, there was a puddle of water at his feet.
"Let's go! Go back to the yard quickly, it's safe there." Lu Yixiang stood with a gun in hand, not looking at the man at all, just staring at the black sky, ready to attack.
"Senior Ke Lu, what are you going to do?" the man asked with emotion after recovering from the fright.
"I don't need you to worry about it, hurry up and leave!" He kicked the man on the butt, and the man had to run away in a hurry.
In the sky, seven black figures were as fast as thunder, extending their sharp claws as if to scratch his chest.
Lu Yixiang took a deep breath of pure Qi, closed his eyes tightly, and fell into darkness. The only thing he could see clearly was the surging gun intent.
The old man suddenly swung his spear and drew a circular arc around him. He only heard the sound of raindrops in his ears. The seven bat spirits were smashed to pieces by the invisible and overbearing spear intent.
A thick layer of stinky blood rained down.
Lu Yixiang roared angrily and stabbed out a gun. The gun tip vibrated slightly, and the blood on the gun was shaken off. Then he twisted his waist and stabbed out a bat spirit that was trying to attack sneakily.
Heartbroken.
The unlucky spirit was not dead yet, and he felt the world spin for a while. The old man's arms seemed to have endless power, and he shot fiercely. There were three more on the gun. He jumped high and aimed at the dozen or so people above his head.
Only the remaining spirit monster shouted loudly and threw the spear.
The spear turned into a ray of light and exploded in the sky. After a thunderous sound, dust fell from the sky. The spear spun dozens of punches and flew back into his hand.
The old man was full of fighting spirit, like firewood ignited by fire. In the early years, with a seven-foot spear, he had a reputation of being invincible within a hundred miles of Cangshan Mountain and even on the border of Daqi.
.
I thought that this generation would probably stay in the Sixth Realm of Wufu. Unexpectedly, after the battle three days ago, the old body turned into something magical. I sensed the opportunity to break through the realm and entered the Seventh Realm of Wufu. It was really a blessing in disguise.
.
In the sky, there were ten times more bat spirits than before, flying in groups. The top of the head was covered with darkness, and an unpleasant smell of blood could be smelled.
A cold light flashed from the tip of the gun, and the old man's face turned pale, he stepped back and jumped up to the wall.
There were already hundreds of bat spirits, smashing onto the ground as if they were desperate. The sound of bones breaking and blood exploding made one's scalp numb.
He stood at the gate of the courtyard with a calm face. From now on, he would be the first line of defense of Taoxi Temple, but he actually had some doubts in his heart.
"I've been walking around Cangshan for at least fifty or sixty years, and now it's just a tiger demon that has reached the seventh realm. Where did it get all these troublesome spirits?"
Over three hundred bats sneaked overhead, rushing down with murderous intent.
But before he could take action, dozens of talismans floated up on the wall of the courtyard and burned into ashes. Then, fireballs as large as feathers shot up into the sky and crashed into the sky full of spirits.
In the temple, everyone raised their heads and looked at the fireball as big as a golden wheel.
He Xu paused for a moment, then took the little novice monk's hand and ran to the meditation room.
