Staying in the quiet room and sorting out the thoughts that came up several times, Xu Dao suddenly realized that there was much to be done about this matter.
After a few more deliberation, he walked out of the quiet room and thought to himself: "There happen to be two Taoist priests in the city, let's try the toad monster and the gecko monster first."
After leaving the quiet room, Su Jiu had been with the swordsman for a long time. She had roughly told the swordsman some things, but of course it was only on the surface.
After Xu Dao came out, he immediately summoned the two of them.
At this time, the swordsman had freshened up and dressed up in the talisman shop. Although his body was covered with black and yellow mouse hair, he looked much fresher.
It kowtowed excitedly and squeaked.
Su Jiu next to her had already learned what happened to it. She was holding a pen and paper in her hand and was about to hand it to it immediately.
But at this time Xu Dao stretched out his hand to stop and said: "Needless to say, I called you here to solve the spell on you."
"Jiji!" The swordsman heard this and became even more excited. He knelt on the ground and refused to get up.
Xu Dao let it go and explained: "The spells on you were cast by Taoist priests in the foundation-building realm, and the spells are also mixed with evil spirits, which is quite tricky."
"Fortunately, I have my own magic method to help you get rid of these evil spirits."
After saying that, Xu Dao's magic power started to work, and wisps of electric light flashed on his body surface. He raised his crystal palm, stretched out a finger, and gently touched his forehead.
The technique he practices is the Thunder Technique, which is extremely capable of restraining evil spirits. It can help sort out the swordsman's muscles and bones and free him from restraints.
Tear!
An electric snake flashed past and instantly sank into the swordsman's head, causing his body to shake violently.
Whoosh! A black energy rushed out from the swordsman's body.
The group formed into the shape of a mouse in mid-air, its body twisted, being entangled and bitten by the thunder snake in Xu Dao's palm, and it collapsed after a while.
While the swordsman was kneeling on the ground, he could not clearly see the scene above his head, but when the black energy in his body was forced out, his face and body did not change immediately, but his whole body felt relaxed, as if he had taken off a layer of
Heavy clothes have a light and airy feel.
Xu Dao looked at the dissipating black energy and immediately cast a spell to imprison it, lest the evil spirit come back to report like the last invitation.
He looked at it for a few times, frowned slightly, and asked: "Do those Taoist priests transfer mana into your bodies in the name of grace every few days like they do in the temple?"
The swordsman heard it and said, "Yes...yes!" As soon as it opened its mouth, it suddenly realized that it was a human voice, not the squeaking rat voice.
A look of joy appeared on the swordsman's face: "I can speak now? I can speak now!"
It excitedly bowed to the ground again, and kept saying thanks: "Thank you so much, sir, thank you so much for saving my life!"
"Okay, don't do this again." When Xu Dao heard this, he smiled softly and reached out to help him. Then his smile turned cold and he said:
"If the Taoist priests don't reinforce this spell from time to time, it wouldn't be difficult to crack it, but now it's become more and more ingrained."
"Although I have helped you break the spell, if you want to be completely free and return to your human form, you still have to spend some time polishing your body to get rid of the remaining evil spirits. As for how many days it takes, it depends on you.
The next step is to practice.”
The joy on the swordsman's face did not change, and he said respectfully: "Yes! I will definitely work hard so that I can help the master look after the home and the hospital as soon as possible."
"It's all about hard work." After a few words of comfort to the swordsman, Xu Dao waved his hand and asked the swordsman to stand up.
After a few brief instructions to the other party, he asked the swordsman to put on his cloak and stand next to him.
Then he performed a magic spell, and soon there were footsteps outside, and someone trotted in.
The person who came was Taoist disciple Chen Wan. When he saw Xu Dao calling him, he immediately dropped everything he was doing and rushed over to do his job.
Last night, the story of Xu Dao and the two Shezhao Taoist priests drinking and having fun had spread throughout Jiangzhou City, and everyone in the city knew that his identity as a demon envoy had been confirmed.
Even if there are still some young people with ulterior motives, there is no need for Xu Dao to take action or even Chen Wan to say hello. Other later Taoist disciples will take care of these people on their own.
In just one night, the status of a talisman shop in the city has skyrocketed. Large and small halls for worshiping demons, deacons, and shop owners have all come over to get acquainted with each other and build friendships.
They did not dare to disturb Xu Dao easily, so they could only submit a name post first, make friends with Taoist disciple Chen Wan, and get to know each other.
So Chen Wan walked in at this time, his face was red, his expression was excited and excited, but when he came to Xu Dao, he was still respectful and his attitude was a little more awed than before.
"Master, I wonder if you have anything to tell Xiaodao?" Chen Wan lowered his head and moved closer without squinting.
Xu Dao said: "I have two things to tell you."
Taoist disciple Chen Wan lowered his head even more, as if he was listening.
"First, this is an old servant of mine. He has just arrived in Jiangzhou City in recent days. You two should get to know each other."
When Chen Wan heard this, his heart skipped a beat.
Because he had kept his head down when he walked into the room just now, he didn't notice that there were three people in the room. When he raised his head slightly, Chen Wan saw a strange figure standing next to Xu Dao.
The other party is wearing a black robe and has strong blood. He is also a Taoist practicing martial arts. His cultivation should be in the early stage of body refining.
When the swordsman saw Chen Wan looking over, he took the initiative to bow, put his hands in his sleeves, and made a salute.
When Chen Wan saw that there was another person beside Xu Dao, and he was an "old servant", he instantly felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
But he couldn't express or say anything, so he could only hurriedly hold his hands towards the other party and said cautiously: "I have met fellow Taoist."
Fortunately, Xu Dao's next words comforted him: "Lao Sha will be responsible for taking care of the backyard of the Talisman Shop from now on. Let's rest peacefully in the yard for a while. You and Su Jiu will continue to take care of the matters in the Talisman Shop, so don't bother.
Old Sha."
When Chen Wan heard this, he felt relieved. He was secretly glad that the other party was not here to compete with him for the position. However, he could not show too much joy, so he could only lower his voice and said: "No, don't worry, Master."
After a few simple conversations, Xu Dao took in the subtle changes in the other person's face and couldn't help but smile.
But these little things are not worth paying too much attention to. A little win over and a few beatings are enough.
Xu Dao spoke directly: "As for the second thing, was Shopkeeper Chen originally a disciple of the Yaksha Sect?"
"Yes, yes." Chen Wan heard this and was a little confused. He subconsciously guessed whether Xu Dao was a demon envoy and began to hate his origins.
But if he was disgusted, Xu Dao would probably resign from his position as shopkeeper directly to avoid irritation.
With his mind spinning, Chen Wan could only speak out quickly and stammered in explanation: "Xiao Dao, Xiao Dao was once just a Taoist boy in the Yaksha sect. He went out without practicing Qi. He has no second thoughts about the master!"
"Nothing, nothing." Xu Dao waved his hand, interrupted the other party's words, and then asked with a smile:
"In that case, I wonder if you could recommend some Taoist friends from the Yaksha sect for me?"
Hearing this, Chen Wan was slightly startled.
………………
After asking a few questions in the room, Xu Dao immediately ordered Chen Wan to make arrangements without further delay. As for the affairs of the Talisman Shop, they were first handed over to Su Jiu and the swordsman, who would take care of them one from the outside and the other from the inside.
.
But as Chen Wan said, he was originally just a Taoist boy in the Yaksha Sect. With a low status, how could he introduce Xu Tao to the big names in the Yaksha Sect.
He could only take Xu Dao to find the Yaksha Sect's station in Jiangzhou City, and let the other party entertain Xu Dao and pass the news on his behalf.
And Xu Dao had been hanging out in Jiangcheng for a long time. Although he knew that Jiangcheng was almost penetrated by Yaksha Sect and turned into a sieve, he didn't expect that Yaksha Sect actually had a special station in the city and sent its disciples to nail them in the city.
And according to Chen Wan, such a station is not a secret. It is just that after Taoist priest Shezhao came to Jiangcheng, the disciples of the Yaksha Sect in the city kept a low profile and were not so conspicuous in the city. But such as the shopkeepers of major shops and the people of Dangyao Hall
The worshipers and others know everything that needs to be known.
In this case, Xu Dao disguised himself and used the bone-shrinking technique to change his body shape and cover up the whereabouts of himself and Chen Wan.
After the two people walked out of the Talisman Shop in a low-key manner, they did not wander around the North Street Ghost Market, nor did they run to other ghost streets. Instead, they left the ghost street, mixed in with the crowds of Mortal City, and headed towards Jiangzhou City.
Mufu ran away.
Most of the people in the Zhou Mu Mansion are mortals, among whom only the Zhou Mu and other higher-ranking civil and military officials are held by Taoists, and these Taoists will also hang out in the ghost market, and have other identities, or are enshrined in the Demon Dang Hall.
, or the owner of the store.
Chen Wan said that he would take Xu Dao here. Xu Dao almost thought that the Zhou Mu Mansion was the station of the Yaksha Gate, which was quite absurd in his heart. Fortunately, the other party explained in time that the place he wanted to take him to was the Jiangzhou Prison.
The prison is located in a corner of the Prefectural Mufu Mansion, located underground. Anyone who commits serious crimes near Jiangzhou will be escorted to this place, and even monsters captured by the government will be imprisoned here.
Soon, Xu Dao knew why this place was chosen and occupied by the disciples of the Yaksha Sect.
They walked past the mortal guards outside the prison, and once they entered the underground prison, it was as if they had left the mortal world and stepped into the legendary prison of Yama.
The surrounding temperature dropped sharply, ghosts cried, and screams immediately began.
The yin energy emerges as if it has substance. If an ordinary mortal steps into this place and his yang energy is damaged, he will definitely be violently ill for three to five days after returning.
But the deeper the yin energy and the resentment, the easier it is to raise ghosts, refine ghosts, and even cultivate yin gods.
For some people in the immortal way, this place is already a rare and precious place for cultivation.
Especially since the entire Jiangzhou City has no spiritual veins and very thin spiritual energy, Taoists can only ingest the essence of the sun and the moon or refining talisman money during daily practice, which makes it even more rare.
Whoosh! The dark wind blew by, and suddenly a ghost soldier with a hollow body jumped out from the corridor, rushing toward Xu Dao and Xu Dao silently and strangely.
This is because the ghost soldiers want to steal the yang energy from the two people to nourish themselves, or someone behind the scenes wants to give the two strangers a showdown.
Ke Xudao was disturbed by the ghost soldiers and snorted coldly: "I don't know whether to live or die." He casually stretched out his hand to grab the two ghost soldiers and kneaded them in his hands.
His fingers exerted force and his magic power vibrated.
"Ah!" Two screams rang out, and the ghost soldier was crushed to death by him.
"Who is it!" Immediately afterwards, a scream came from the depths of the corridor, and suddenly a Taoist Yin Shen in white clothes and a white hat swam out, and shouted with gritted teeth: "Who killed my ghost soldiers!"
It is surrounded by green flames and surrounded by two ghost heads. Its strength is in the middle stage of Qi refining. After more than 20 years of Taoism, it is about to break through to the late stage. It is somewhat powerful. No wonder it dares to directly control the ghost soldiers to scrape other people's Yang.
gas.
Because Xu Dao suppressed his aura, the visitor only thought that Xu Dao and the two were just in the early stage of Qi refining, so he angrily threw them in front of them, wanting to humiliate them.
Seeing this man, Chen Wan's expression changed again, and he quickly exclaimed: "Fellow Taoist, I don't want it."
But the visitor didn't know what Chen Wan really meant. He just thought that the other party wanted to stop it. He sneered on his face, moved faster, and snorted: "It's too late!"
But the next moment, two words sounded in the corridor: "Noisy."
Xu Dao looked at the opponent impatiently. The mana in his body suddenly increased to the middle stage of Qi refining. Before the opponent could react, he used a spell and the golden light flashed. He also captured the opponent's Yin Shen in his hands and ran away.
It's too late to return to the physical body.
"You, you!" The disciples of the Yaksha Sect were frightened. It fell into Xu Dao's hands, and they immediately shouted loudly to ask their fellow disciples to come over and help. However, seeing the cold gaze of Xu Dao looking down at him, the Taoist said his words honestly.
Swallowed it back.
Taoist disciple Chen Wan next to him smiled bitterly and said in a low voice: "Please, Taoist Master, spare this man's life. Killing the ghost soldiers will be fine, but killing the disciple's son may hinder the Taoist Master's work."
At this time, the Yaksha sect disciples who had been suppressed by Xu Dao finally realized that what Chen Wan had just said was for his own good.
"Yes." Xu Dao nodded, but did not deal with the other party easily.
He was not afraid that the other party would slip away immediately, so he let go of the other party's Yin Shen and called out: "Lead the way and call your boss."
Xu Dao threw off his sleeves and strode into the depths of the dungeon.
As a result, there were twenty or thirty Yaksha Taoist disciples staying in the Jiangcheng prison, and the Taoist Yin Shen he caught was the Taoist disciple in charge of the city.
This made Xu Dao slightly surprised. Fortunately, the other party's cultivation level was approaching the late stage of Qi refining, and he should have caught the eye of the Taoist priests of the Yaksha Sect. There might be a way to connect him with the Taoist priests of the Yaksha Sect.
The Taoists of the Yaksha Sect specialize in cultivating the Yin God, and the magic in the sect is more sinister than that of the White Bone Temple. The Taoist priests have even cultivated their own Yin God into a ghostly existence.
Xu Dao had to make more preparations to meet such ghosts and monsters, and he was also prepared to see what the Taoist priest who built the foundation of Yinshen would be like, and how it was different from the foundation building of the physical body.
