Inhaling the essence of the full moon for two consecutive nights, Cheng Yu spent the day catching up on his sleep on the beams of the Drum Tower.
On the contrary, I completely forgot about the screening of seasoned experts.
How is his cultivation important?
In addition, Cheng Yu also made some insinuations and learned from the orange cat demon that his soul has a rare water spirit constitution in the world.
The black ocean in the abdomen is formed by the essence of Xuan Shui.
Xuan Shui Essence is made from the condensed essence of moistening water in the Five Elements. It is a treasure of the water element and is rare in the world.
Of course, the cat demon's thinking is that the water spirit is a treasure in his eyes, but the sparrow senior may not value it at all.
How else do you dare to show it openly, so that if you have some luck, you can see it?
Just like a top-grade jade pendant worn by a noble prince, it only serves to highlight the noble status of the prince, but it is enough to keep ordinary people away from him.
But if a beggar obtains this jade pendant and exposes it publicly, he will either be taken to court and embezzled, or his life will be robbed.
What Cheng Yu was thinking at the moment was that perhaps Long Xiangjiang's plan to murder Yuan Deng was not for his golden elixir, but to seize the water essence in his golden elixir.
And Yuan Deng may not even know that there is a drop of Xuanshui essence in his golden elixir.
Of course he understands the reason why a man is guilty of carrying a jade without any guilt.
Fortunately, the man in black appeared in the temple at that time, and his soul had returned to the bird body, so he was not noticed by the other party, so he escaped the disaster by accident.
As for Wenjun, Yuan Deng and Tsing Yi Tongzi who met later, they obviously did not see the water essence in his body.
In fact, they were not the only ones, the cat demon didn't notice it when they first met.
Cheng Yu also learned after becoming familiar with the cat demon in the past two days that this old cat belongs to the wood-type cultivation lineage. When he opens his spiritual wisdom, he has a pair of green light eyes and can see things that others cannot see.
It was only after he opened his Dharma Eyes that night that he recognized Cheng Yu, the little sparrow spirit.
At the same time, this can also explain why he, Cheng Yu, is able to skillfully perform the water technique even though he has neither the ability to control objects nor the demonic aura.
Moreover, it can be used freely regardless of the bird's true form or its spiritual body.
It turns out it’s all because of the water spirit.
Among some of the Five Elements principles that Cheng Yu mastered, water is one of the five elements, and its color is dark black. Compared with the five internal organs, it belongs to the kidney.
The black ocean in the body is the kidney water essence element that is activated after being integrated into the water essence. In other words, he now has good kidneys.
It's not just good, it's great.
At the same time, the internal organs of the five elements of water belong to the kidneys, and the five sense organs belong to the ears. This can also explain why his ear power suddenly became unusually outstanding after the incident at the Dragon King Temple.
The five elements are mutually reinforcing and inhibiting each other. Water produces wood, and wood appears in the eyes.
Therefore, his eyesight has also improved, and he is no longer night blind like other birds.
But it's still far from improved ear power, it's just about being able to see clearly.
……
After practicing with Cheng Yu for two days, the cat demon felt that he was very familiar with the sparrow immortal.
So around noon one day, the orange cat held a clean lotus leaf bag and placed it on the beam.
Opening the lotus leaf, Cheng Yu saw a portion of freshly fried bacon wrapped in it, still steaming.
Since he started practicing, Cheng Yu's appetite has begun to decrease significantly, but seeing this freshly baked bacon, the glutton in his heart came to life again.
The only thing is, if you eat this meaty food, won’t it affect your cultivation?
I think this orange cat was forced to stop practicing at night because he ate chicken liver.
But the cat demon shook his head repeatedly and said it was okay.
In his early years, he had tried all kinds of meat, and meat was not harmful. Only eating animal offal would affect his spiritual practice.
In fact, it is not impossible to practice even if you eat offal, but you must eat it early and digest it early.
After eating the offal like that night, it couldn't start sucking the moonlight right away.
After Cheng Yu heard this, he hugged the orange cat demon and saluted, then divided the bacon in the lotus leaf into two parts, leaving a small part in front of him, pushed the larger part towards the orange cat demon and stretched out his right wing.
Make a please gesture.
The orange cat was overjoyed when he saw it. He said thank you to Brother Que, then lowered his head and picked up the bacon and ate it happily.
Cheng Yu couldn't bear to hear what the cat demon said before about the senior before him and the great immortal behind him, so he asked the cat demon to continue calling him a bird friend.
The orange cat demon is afraid of being struck by lightning, so he dares to call him bird friend again, so he calls him bird brother.
Cheng Yu asked about his name, and the cat demon immediately had an idea, claiming that he had no name, and asked Cheng Yu to give him a name.
Cheng Yu lowered his head and thought for a while, then smiled, and immediately used ink to spell out the word "Garfield" above the Drum Tower.
The orange cat tasted it and felt that it seemed a bit barbaric, but he didn't dare to say it out loud, so he just kept saying "good".
The orange cat demon was so excited that he was given a name. He took the initiative and stole some green radish fruit wine from the shopkeeper of Huichunlou shop.
A cat and a sparrow are drinking and chatting on the roof of the building. It’s so pleasant.
……
That night, everything was silent.
Only watchmen patrol the city.
Birds and cats continue to suck the moonlight on the roof of the Bell and Drum Tower.
Suddenly, Cheng Yu felt that the surrounding temperature dropped suddenly by several degrees, and waves of coldness hit him out of nowhere.
He stopped breathing and turned around to look around, but there was no change. The stars and moon in the sky were bright and it was still clear.
"Huh..."
After the orange cat demon finished a round of vomiting, he saw Cheng Yu stop and smiled at him:
"Brother Que, don't pay attention to these guys. They are not in conflict with us. We just focus on cultivation."
‘These guys?’
‘What guy?’
After the orange cat demon finished speaking, his eyes were filled with green light, he turned to stare at the bottom of the Drum Tower, and said:
"Brother Que comes to see."
The little sparrow jumped a few times and came to the cat demon. He followed the direction he indicated and looked downstairs. Heigulongdong could not see anything strange.
The green light in the cat demon's eyes blazed fiercely, green flames burst out of the eye sockets, and two green lights shot downstairs.
Finally, I saw two people standing under the Drum Tower. There were no figures in the blue light, their faces were pale, and their feet were about a foot off the ground.
Ghost?
If you look closely, you can see that the two ghosts are wearing helmets and armor, wearing swords and sabers, looking inward.
One of them noticed the blue light coming from upstairs. He looked up and saw the orange cat demon and Cheng Yu staring at him from above. He frowned and informed his companions.
The two ghosts disappeared with a whoosh, and no matter how hard the cat demon opened his eyes, he could not be found.
"Let's go. These two are the roving agents of Wujun Palace, who are responsible for the affairs of the dead souls in Qingchuan County."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The cat demon said calmly.
From Wujun Palace...
This was the first time Cheng Yu saw the underworld in Wujundian. As expected, they were all dressed in sergeant uniforms.
After asking Mao Yao again, I found out that Wujun Palace is located in the southwest corner of the county, and Wenjun Palace is in the southeast corner of the city, which is in line with the convention of Wendong and Wuxi.
The orange cat demon also revealed a piece of gossip that almost no one knows:
"The young private school teacher who lives downstairs is named Zhuang Mingzhou and given by Huaijin. He was a scholar who was admitted three years ago and is now preparing for the provincial examination next year.
He was so addicted to books that he spent all the money he had left in his family. He was such a talented scholar that he had to live with his father under the Bell and Drum Towers..."
Cheng Yuxin said, does this count as no one knows?
The orange cat demon seemed to have guessed what Cheng Yu was thinking, and pretended to be mysterious and continued:
"Everyone knows this part, but what no one really knows is that his surname is Zhuang, and his father and grandfather are also surnamed Zhuang..."
Seeing Cheng Yu suddenly staring at it meaningfully, the cat demon didn't dare to show off anymore and said quickly:
"And Wujun in Qingchuan County also has the surname Zhuang..."
Oh...
Only then did Cheng Yu get some flavor, and it turned out that the Zhuang Huaijin the cat demon mentioned was a descendant of Lord Wu.
This reminds me that when Wenjun and I were drinking at the same table, the boy in green seemed to have a slight contempt for Wujundian in his words.
However, the orange cat demon said that Wujun Palace should be on the same level. Unless they encounter a particularly difficult to deal with fierce gods and ghosts, the two families will occasionally join forces, which is rare once or twice in a hundred years.
On weekdays, it seems that they go their own way and do not interfere with each other. In fact, the two families secretly monitor each other's every move. If the other party catches the slightest mistake, the other party may report it to the palace and Wujun Palace.<
/p>
Sure enough, it is similar to the city god system in previous generations. The administrative division is roughly divided into three levels, from bottom to top: county, prefecture, and capital.
Unlike the city god who governs the civil and military forces, this world divides it into two groups: civil and military.
They are on equal footing with each other, with a clear division of labor and mutual checks and balances, so that one party will not become the dominant one until the end.
Cheng Yu suddenly wanted to know who initiated this system of dividing civil and military forces into the Yins.
Seeing that the orange cat demon was so familiar with these underworld scandals and gossip, Cheng Yu asked him how he knew about them.
The cat demon laughed and said that these three hundred years have been really difficult. It also has a pair of magical eyes with blue light. The Yin and Yang worlds are all under its nose. How could it not know?
Cheng Yu was silent, he was so keen on gossip and scandals, no wonder he was not as good as Yuan Deng in cultivation.
……
Yinsi.
Wujun Palace.
A dark-faced and bearded man, wearing a full set of general armor, sat in the general's chair, with a judge dressed as a general kneeling half-kneeling at his feet.
"To report to Lord Wu, I will report that my subordinates patrolled the city at night and found the scholar Zhuang Huaijin under the Bell and Drum Towers..."
The judge deliberately pronounced the word Zhuang Huaijin with an accent, then paused and continued:
"...The words annotated in the book recently are glowing with golden light, and there is something hidden..."
"What's hidden?"
Wu Jun held the sword on his waist with one hand and held the case with the other, leaning forward and asked calmly.
"There is a hint of a written holy order."
"Oh? Hahahahaha, get the Yin and Yang book!"
The judge below was already prepared. He took out a volume from his arms and raised his hands high.
Wu Jun made a big move, and the volume automatically flew to the top of the koan.
"Wow... Wow..."
The sound of turning pages of books could be heard in the Wujun Palace.
"Haha! Wonderful. I am indeed a descendant of the banker.
Hey hey hey! What a twist of fate, even though Wen Bing's son was the top scholar in his lifetime, the literary talent of his descendants is not as good as the rest.
Now they have become a merchant family, and they can only rely on their money to donate money and take up a job as a foreign minister to make up for their dignity.
Although my dealer is a military commander, I don’t want to be a literary sage.
I really want to see the expression on Wen Bing's face when he learned about this, hahahaha!"
All the judges in the hall were so blessed that they congratulated each other:
"Congratulations, Mr. Wu!"
"Wujun is mighty!"
"Mr. Wu is good at nurturing talents!"
When Lord Wu heard a judge praising him for his talent, he waved his hand and said displeasedly:
"Eh? What nonsense are you talking about?
Although this Zhuang Huaijin is my direct descendant, Zhuang Dakuan, he is separated from me by more than three hundred years and twenty generations. I would not know that he is a great-great-grandson of a certain family without looking through the Yin and Yang Book. How can he be considered a talented person?
If word spreads, those who don’t know about it will think that the general is partial and secretly went to the world to take care of future generations!
We are all brave warriors, and we cannot imitate the rotten flattery of those literati. Well, everyone should return to his place, hehehehehe..."
