Dawn in the Immortal Mountain Chapter 1: Catch the monster and get rich
Great Zhou Dynasty, Jiannan Region, Yidu Prefecture, Tingyang County.
A carriage parked quietly beside the city gate, but the person standing in front of the carriage looked uneasy.
Due to the presence of monsters in the house, the Yin-Yang School instructors in the county were unable to do anything. Lin Yuanwai could not wait for people from Yidu Prefecture to come over, so he sought help from the Shushan Sword Sect not far from the county.
This morning he received a letter saying that the demon exterminator would arrive before sunset.
The forest member looked up to the west and saw that the red sun was beginning to set over the mountain.
"Master, do you think he is the immortal sent by Shushan to eliminate demons?"
After hearing this, the forest officer looked out into the distance and saw a young Taoist priest walking leisurely in the courtyard with the afterglow of the setting sun on his back. From a distance, he could see the elegant temperament flowing from his tall figure as he walked.
When he got closer, Lin Yuanwai did not see the logo of Shushan disciples on the Taoist priest's robe, and he couldn't help but feel regretful.
But I saw that the young Taoist priest was carrying a magic sword on his back. He had a refined temperament, clear and handsome facial features and a cold face. He seemed to have a good appearance that was not stained by the worldly world. However, he looked still young, and I didn't know whether the Dharma was profound or not.
Lin Yuanwai was thinking that since the Shushan disciples didn't come, he might as well become a living doctor and ask this young Taoist priest.
Unexpectedly, the young Taoist priest stepped forward first, his tone was very gentle, not like the afterglow of the setting sun, but more like the rising sun in the morning, "You must be Lin Yuanwai, the trail is curtained, I heard that Yuan Yuan's home was invaded by monsters, the county was helpless, Shushan arranged for the front of the trail
Come to get rid of the demons, Forest Officer, please lead the way."
Lin Yuanwai was slightly shocked. Although he looked good, he still felt that there was a direct relationship between Taoism and age, so he asked: "Taoist Master, are you not a disciple of Shushan?"
"Not yet,"
Su Mu didn't hide anything, and said bluntly: "I participated in the entrance examination, and it happened that the problem of Lin Yuan's family became the test question of Xiaodao."
After thirty years, the Shushan Sword Sect once again recruited disciples, and countless people attended. Such a grand event is well known to everyone.
After learning that Su Mu was not even an entry-level disciple, Lin Yuanwai instantly lost confidence in his heart, thinking that this young man's cultivation was probably spent on just a skin, instead of improving his spiritual conduct.
He immediately sighed and said, "Forget it, even the training masters in this county can't do anything about it, so you'd better not die in vain."
Hearing that the other party had so little confidence in himself, Su Mu said: "Is it possible that I don't know the art of cultivating Taoism to maintain beauty? To be honest, Xiaodao is turning 100 years old this year. The reason why he has not joined a sect is that he just likes freedom."
"In my early years, I entered the East China Sea and killed a thousand-year-old giant dragon. I traveled to the ancient land of Wanlao in the Western Wasteland without getting hurt. I went to the imperial palace to drink and have fun with His Majesty the Emperor. I went to the Nine Nether Hells to kill the ghost king with one sword. If it hadn't been for a reason, I wouldn't be here today.
I won’t join the Shushan Sword Sect.”
When the forest officer saw him saying these words outside, his expression was completely unmoved, and his tone was as calm as if he was eating and drinking.
Although I felt that the words were somewhat exaggerated, I was still impressed by his extraordinary demeanor and couldn't help but feel shocked.
He also saw Su Mu making predictions with his fingers, "The monsters in Yuan Wai's house are originally creatures from the sea. They only changed their shape due to being contaminated by the evil spirits of ferocious beasts. Their appearance in Yuan Wai's house is nothing more than a flick of their sleeves as far as the Xiaodao is concerned."
The forest member was immediately overjoyed and saluted respectfully, "It turns out that the immortal has been cultivating Taoism for hundreds of years, but he still calls himself a small Taoist. We, who have eyes that cannot recognize Mount Tai, still hope that the immortal will be able to see the sea."
"I'm a low-key person and don't like to be public. Please lead the way."
When Lin saw how humble he was, he was even more impressed. He bowed again and said, "Please get in the car, Mr. Immortal."
...
The Lin family is one of the most wealthy families in Tingyang County, and you can get a glimpse of its heritage just by standing at the door of the mansion.
Just because the monsters were causing trouble, the mansion did not dare to live in people, and it was impossible to live in people, so it inevitably had a deserted, miserable look.
Around the mansion, a magic circle has been set up by the county's yin-yang academic officials to prevent monsters from escaping.
With a flick of his sleeves, Su Mu opened the barrier and asked, "Exceptor Lin, would you like to go with Xiaodao?"
"Is that okay?" Lin Yuan was still looking forward to it, mainly because the monster had been causing harm to his family for a long time, and he really wanted to see the monster subjugate himself.
"Of course, the trail will ensure that the staff is thorough."
Hearing his voice as calm as the breeze, Lin Yuanwai mustered up his courage and said: "If this is the case, you will have a long life."
The two of them entered the mansion.
A gust of wind with the smell of sea water blew in front of me, which frightened the forest officer so much that his face turned pale and he almost peed.
In a moment.
Dark clouds suddenly appeared above their heads.
The wind gradually blew, blowing down the surrounding leaves and rushing towards them.
Su Mu formed a seal with one hand and formed a barrier around Lin Yuan's body.
Lin Yuanwai was frightened to death and asked hurriedly: "Chief Immortal, this monster is so powerful that even Master Jiaoyu can't capture it. Can you really control it?"
"This monster is truly extraordinary,"
Su Mu's expression was extremely solemn, "Not to mention the county's decree, even if the government's high school comes, it will not be able to contain this monster."
"Isn't it? So fierce?" Lin Yuwai's voice trembled.
"You don't have to worry, member of the public. Since he meets me, he has no choice but to capture me without mercy!"
After the words fell, the sky became darker, and Lin Yuanwai could no longer even see Su Mu's face clearly.
Suddenly.
Su Mu grabbed him and quickly came to a lake.
I have to admit that the Lin family is really a big business, and the lake built in the family can even raise a few killer whales.
Only a clanging sound was heard.
Su Mu summoned his long sword and lifted it into the void. Several bright stars appeared where it landed, and then flew into the lake.
Then the lake rippled.
Suddenly, a column of water rose violently into the sky, and black energy visible to the naked eye surged out.
"Monster?!" Lin Yuwai was shocked, as the water column dispersed, and in the thick black air, there was a monster with gray hair curled up into a ball.
"Bold evildoer, you can catch him without restraint!" Su Mu recited the incantation, and the words glowing with green light poured out.
Lin Yuanwai had never seen such a mysterious Taoist method before, so he looked away.
But in an instant, the curled-up monster suddenly opened its eyes.
His eyes were actually pitch black, as if he wanted to absorb everything in the world.
"Close your eyes!" Su Mu reminded solemnly.
The forest officer didn't dare not listen, and then he only heard the sound of the fierce rolling of the lake and the miserable scream of the monster.
When he opened his eyes again, the dark sky had returned and the waves of sea breeze had completely disappeared.
"Immortal?" He saw Su Mu sheathing his sword and brushing off the water drops on his sleeves, still looking calm and composed.
"The hair all over the body is like a macaque, and the top of the head is hairless."
Su Mu looked outside the forest member and said calmly: "This monster is called a sea monkey in the monster records. It can move clouds and make rain, and likes to eat human brains. Fortunately, I don't know what kind of thing this monster is infected with, and it is peaceful in the lake."
It’s a blessing that Xiu didn’t harm your family.”
Lin Yuanwai felt relieved and bowed: "Thank you, Immortal... Many thanks, Immortal, you are a great benefactor to my family."
"There is no need to say thank you. Killing demons and demons is the duty of the Taoist priests."
Su Mu took out a spiritual talisman from his body and said: "However, although this monster is contained, the evil spirit left in the house will not be dissipated in a short time. These spiritual talismans can absorb these evil spirits, and the officials will stick them everywhere in the house.
You can check in again after half a month.”
"So, thank you, Immortal," Lin Yuanwai stretched out his hand to take it.
Unexpectedly, Su Mu's hands suddenly dropped weakly, "Sorry, I over-cast the spell just now, and my hands were a little sore for a while. I'll meditate and absorb some spiritual stones while I wait on the trail."
Hear this.
Lin Yuanwai suddenly remembered that the immortal leader with mystical Taoism in front of him helped him take in the big demon, but he had not paid him yet.
He quickly took out the spiritual stones prepared from various parties, handed over the small storage bag and said: "I'm sorry for your help, Immortal, please accept it."
Su Mu went to find out, and found that there were only ten low-grade spiritual stones?
The quality is also top notch.
The quality and richness of the spiritual energy contained in it, as well as the amount of impurities, are all inferior.
I thought to myself, this old boy is really picky, but it’s more or less meat, so we can’t say anything.
It's just that I can't help but feel that this member's actions are inconsistent with his identity.
His hands still have some strength.
"It's your duty to kill demons and eliminate demons. How can you be embarrassed about this?"
Su Mu smiled and said, "You're welcome, member. By the way, please keep the magic talisman."
A spiritual talisman was handed into Lin Yuanwai's hand, but how could Lin Yuanwai remember that he saw three of them in the immortal's hand just now?
"Okay, the monster has been collected. Please give the officer a document to Xiaodao so that I can go back to the mountain and hand it in."
"It should be,"
On the way out, Lin Yuanwai finally couldn't help it and asked: "Chief Immortal, you see I only have one magic talisman, but my house is quite big, is it enough?"
Su Mu glanced over his body and said: "It is indeed a bit tight, but Lin Yuanwai only needs to change positions every half a month. Don't worry, the shelf life of Xiaodao's spiritual talismans is long enough."
"That's it," Lin Yuanwai asked, "Can I trouble you to draw a few more pictures?"
"This is it,"
Su Mu looked embarrassed, "Xiaodao is busy with the entrance examination. Drawing the magic talisman really consumes one's cultivation. If you delay the entrance, you will lose more than you gain."
As a good businessman, Su Mu suddenly regained the strength in his hands.
Lin Yuanwai couldn't hear the hidden meaning, thinking that this little Taoist priest really had a dark heart.
