Three hundred and seventieth chapters cultivation secrets
The next day, Lu Zheng asked Aunt Liu to make breakfast for one more person early in the morning.
After a night of self-cultivation, Yuan Jing's complexion improved significantly.
After changing into clean clothes, Yuan Jing thanked Lu Zheng before going to the table, and then sat down, holding up her chopsticks and throwing chopsticks with a graceful demeanor. She was indeed a Taoist Quanzhen.
Lu Zheng also took a bite of the steamed buns, "I don't know why senior brother came down from the mountain, and what kind of monster is hidden in Tonglin County. I'm going to help senior brother. Is there any place where junior brother can help?"
"The opponent is a pig demon. His cultivation level is not very high, but he is strong and his arms have the strength of a thousand catties. It is difficult to deal with." Yuan Jing said.
"Pig demon?" Lu Zheng was stunned when he heard this, thinking that he just heard the story of a pig demon yesterday, how come he really encountered a pig demon today?
Yuan Jing nodded, "The murder in Qingsheng Building in the county three days ago was committed by this monster."
"Qingsheng Building?" Lu Zheng asked, "I heard that the shop owner and his family died in a tragic state?"
"There was some evil spirit left at the scene, and the county government couldn't deal with it, so I went up the mountain with a post to ask for help, and the master asked me to go down the mountain to kill the evil spirit."
Lu Zheng nodded understandingly.
"I went to look for energy last night, but I didn't expect that the opponent turned out to be a pig demon." Yuan Jing said helplessly, "This pig demon has little magic power and weak demon power, but it is as strong as...
Well, although I used the exorcism technique to severely injure him, I was careless and didn't prevent him from suddenly getting close to me and causing some injuries."
Having said this, Yuan Jing felt quite embarrassed. It was indeed not a glorious thing to go down the mountain to slay demons and injure herself.
"I stayed at the county government office during the day. When I came to the door last night, there were government officials following me from a distance. The pig demon must have seen it. In order to prevent the pig demon from being straight-hearted and bent on seeking revenge on me and attacking the county government office, I found him.
Come here, junior brother."
"If you're not in the county government office, won't the pig demon rush into the government office?"
Yuan Jing shook his head, "Dajing Dynasty has a foreign affairs department to deter foreign objects in the world. As long as the pig demon doesn't want to die, he will not rush into the county government unnecessarily."
Lu Zheng's eyes flashed and he learned another knowledge point.
During the Great Jing Dynasty, Zhen Yisi was established.
It is probably equivalent to the secret front of the National Security Bureau in the previous life.
So Lu Zheng asked again, "Then why did the county government find our Baiyun Temple and didn't notify the Zhenyi Department?"
Yuan Jing shook her head, "The Yamen of Yisi Town only go to the state capital, and they are very busy on weekdays. When Tonglin County reports and the Yisi Town sends people, the pig demon may have run away long ago."
Lu Zheng understood that if this was the case, the Zhenyi Division would not pursue the case relentlessly due to its busy schedule, but there was an unsolved case in Tonglin County, which would have an impact on the performance evaluation of the county government.
In this case, seeking help from Baiyun Temple located in Shaotong Mountain is a win-win strategy.
The county government will gain political achievements, Baiyun Temple will gain benefits, and both will gain reputation.
"In this case, wouldn't the pig demon still be hiding in Tonglin County?"
"Exactly!" Yuan Jing nodded, then looked deeply at Lu Zheng, "Junior brother, Taoist and martial arts masters, have already developed the warrior blood?"
Lu Zheng: I have an ominous premonition.
"Although the pig demon is majestic, it only has a gifted body and does not know martial arts. If our junior brothers help, we will definitely be able to defeat the pig demon!"
The more Yuan Jing spoke, the brighter her eyes became, "Yes, that's it. Without further ado, let's go find that pig demon's bad luck tonight."
"Why not go during the day?"
Yuan Jing continued to answer Xiaobai's questions, "During the day, the sun is very strong and the demonic aura is not visible. At night, the demonic aura on those monsters with low cultivation level will react with the moonlight and radiate out of their bodies."
"I understand, that, I have no problem with that, but senior brother, your injury..."
"It doesn't matter, it's just two ribs. It won't affect my ability to cast spells and recite spells."
Lu Zheng: When the time comes to co-author it, I will be in charge!
…
Throughout the day, Yuan Jing rested in the backyard room, while Lu Zheng took the time to go back to modern times several times, reply to messages, and travel back in time.
That night, Lu Zheng carried an embroidered spring knife on his shoulder, put away the evil amulet, and put on a short black cloth suit suitable for fighting. He was fully prepared.
However, when he and Yuan Jing set out together at sunset, they followed the Qi-seeking Talisman and walked out of the city.
That aura pointed directly to the deep mountains and old forests outside the city.
In the misty night, Lu Zheng looked at the dark forest, which looked like the mouth of an animal with its huge mouth open and its fangs exposed.
"Continue?" Lu Zheng looked at Yuan Jing.
Yuan Jing shook his head, "It's useless. The old forests in the wild have tall trees and deep grass, and the terrain is complicated. Moreover, the pig demon incarnates itself and is running like flying in the forest. How can we catch up?"
And once we can’t catch him during the day, we will completely lose track of him.”
"Then will he leave forever, or will he just go out of the city to recover from his injuries and come back again after his injuries are healed?"
"It's very simple. I'll stay for one more day. If he doesn't enter the city tomorrow and the evil spirit dissipates, then he's really gone."
…
On the second day, Yuan Jing brought Lu Zheng to the county government office.
After learning that Lu Zheng had actually joined Baiyun Temple, the county magistrate, who didn't know what was going on, just responded. Director Li and Capt. Liu, who had dealt with Lu Zheng, were shocked.
How could a down-and-out scholar who came from afar and had no relatives suddenly become a layman in Baiyunguan?
Of course, since Lu Zheng hugged Baiyunguan's lap, the doubts between the two of them would naturally be hidden in their hearts forever.
Without revealing anything, Chief Li and Captain Liu completed the exchange of roles.
"After the confession of the Qingshenglou clerk, we concluded that the pig demon killed someone for a vendetta." Liu Captou introduced.
"Vendetta?"
Lu Zheng was very curious about how a teahouse owner could become enemies with a pig demon.
"The shopkeeper has a collection that the clerk has seen before, but after the murder last night, the collection disappeared."
"What is it?"
"A piece of wild boar skin." Liu Dutou said, "From beginning to end, there is a foot and two of wild boar skin!"
One foot and two, that is four meters.
A large wild boar measuring four meters from head to toe would definitely have become a sperm if placed in China.
"The enemy who killed my father?"
"Then I don't know." Liu Captou shook his head and said, "The clerks at Qingsheng Tower are all newly hired by shopkeeper Sun when he came to Tonglin County. They don't know anything about his boss's past."
Yuan Jing nodded. In fact, there were many similar unsolved cases, so this case was decided to be a vendetta, and the pig demon was at large.
…
Yuan Jing stayed for another day and used the Qi Seeking Talisman to search for it at night, but it was beyond the searchable range, indicating that the pig demon had indeed left Tonglin County.
…
The next day, before leaving in the afternoon, Yuan Jing took a whole morning to explain to Lu Zheng some of his experience in practicing the Qi Refining Sutra and the difficulties in the Five Talisman Techniques.
Although Lu Zheng couldn't use it, he still showed that he was listening attentively.
Next time you go up the mountain, if Taoist Master Ming Zhang asks you why you practice so fast, you can answer that it was the guidance of senior brother Yuan Jing.
