Zhong Kui looked at Xiao Yu and said with some doubts.
"Some personal matters and grievances will have to be dealt with sooner or later."
Xiao Yu did not directly state the reason, but said something vaguely.
Even if Zhong Kui is not afraid of the Ghost King of Baishan, he is still a ghost king, and his grandfather's affairs are all confidential matters of the Underworld, so he doesn't want to tell them yet.
"Whether you want to save people or seek revenge, you have to be stronger. The underworld is more chaotic than the yang world. There are countless ghost kings and immortals. Wherever I am, I have to be a human being with my tail between my legs, so you need to be more careful.
”.
Zhong Kui spoke bluntly, as if he was reminding Xiao Yu.
"Master Zhong Kui, don't worry, I won't show off. I won't go without absolute strength."
Xiao Yu knows that the place is for his own good, and he also knows his own strength, so he will not do stupid things.
Baishan Ghost King aside, with Wu Xuan here, even if he encounters the opponent and cannot defeat him, there is no problem in running away.
But now there is a Netherworld Emperor, that kind of legendary existence. If you move your finger, you are afraid that it will be annihilated on the spot.
Three hours later, when the rooster crowed for the first time and after five or six bottles of wine, Zhong Kui and Gui Cha got up and left. Maliu Village in Noda became quiet for a while.
After the two ghost servants left, Xiao Yu found the ghost corpse and the others, chatted with the Taoist for a while, and then asked everyone to eat quickly. After a busy night, even the Taoist's body couldn't bear it.
It's just that five Taoists died this time, and the atmosphere was not very good. Everyone just ate briefly, and then went to find the bodies of several Taoists one after another, preparing to take them back for burial.
Now that the souls of several Taoists have been forcibly extracted, they are no longer able to enter the reincarnation passage. The corpses they brought back are nothing more than a thought.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the troupe came out from the houses of the surrounding people and began to pack up their things. The two troupes cost a total of 8,000 yuan, and the things prepared by the cook cost 3 yuan, so the cost this time was more than 10,000 yuan. This pair
As far as Xiao Yu is concerned, it's just a drop in the bucket.
"Taoist Xiao, we will go back to recover soon, please take care of yourself."
Standing at the entrance of Maliu Village, a group of Taoists hugged Xiao Yu and said goodbye.
"Okay, fellow Taoists, please take care. We'll see you in Beijing if we are destined."
"Okay, take care".
Several Taoists gave Xiao Yu a fist-cup salute and then left one after another.
Watching everyone leave, Xiao Yu turned around and discussed with Lao Bai for a while, and finally decided to go back to Shimo Village to stay for a few days, then go back to Anshi where he lives to have a look, and then go to the Mengzhong family area with Qinglong.
Lao Bai has practiced very hard. He is still at the first level of Gu Yi, but he has mastered many Taoist techniques. However, compared with Xiao Yu, there is still a big gap, but compared to the beginning, he is already much stronger.
So after returning to the Shimo Village Taoist Temple, Xiao Yu prepared some elixirs and gave them to Lao Bai. He wanted to use the elixirs to lift the opponent's state of mind. However, this was a very difficult process and could not be done in a short time.
It makes sense.
"If you take these potions during your usual practice, the effect will be better. Don't be anxious, take your time, your speed is already very fast."
Xiao Yu prepared a bottle of medicinal solution, handed it to Lao Bai, and gave instructions at the same time.
"Well, I'm not in a hurry. If I have such ability when I'm old, it won't be in vain for me to be a fake Taoist priest all my life!"
Lao Bai was quite satisfied, especially since he got rid of the ghost general last time, which greatly increased his confidence. He was no longer afraid of the little ghost like before.
"That's good. I'll go home for a few days and visit Tutu Gong. You should also make preparations. We'll set off in a week."
Xiao Yu made a simple arrangement, and then he and the ghost corpse began to walk towards Shimo Village.
Back home, life was still so orderly. Villagers often came to Xiao Yu's house and brought him meals, which made his life extremely narrow.
Shimo Village is backed by mountains, so at night, he released a group of little demons and let them move around on their own, rarely relaxing.
In the remaining few days, Xiao Yu kept practicing the Taoist skills of Qi Men Dun Jia at home, and also let the paper soul start to practice the paper-cutting figure. As for the ghost corpse, he often went to the mountains with a group of little demons, and he didn't know what he was doing.
Xiao Yu originally wanted to visit the cave in the back mountain of Shimo Village that was home to ice butterflies, but in the end he didn't go.
After all, it is the base of the snake demon. If I often bother him for treasures, he will make the other party unhappy.
On the second floor of the room, Xiao Yu was sitting cross-legged on a futon. In the basket next to him was half a basket of soybeans, which he specially prepared for practicing the magic of spreading beans to form soldiers.
In fact, it is not necessary to use soybeans, black beans, mung beans, etc. can be used, and soybeans are widely grown, so Xiao Yu also uses soybeans.
Generally, people with good skills can achieve this step with glutinous rice, but Xiao Yu is definitely not able to do it now.
Moreover, he is most afraid of water, and ordinary water can break this Taoist technique.
"There are three thousand kinds of beans in Qimen. Once the decree comes out, it turns into soldiers. Before each soldier and general goes into battle, they are as urgent as the law and order."
Xiao Yu quickly recited a spell, entwined a few fingers together, and then inserted it into the soybean. He gently picked it up, and several soybeans flew out and sat on the ground in front of him, like glass beads, making a thumping sound.
The sound of hitting the ground.
Then the soybeans started to shake rapidly like a dance, as if they were about to explode at any time.
Xiao Yu stared at the soybeans intently. After staring for a while, he only heard a snap. The soybeans exploded into half, but did not turn into soldiers.
"It failed again. What went wrong?"
Xiao Yu was a little confused. He grabbed a few soybeans and threw them into his mouth. He chewed them lightly and felt that the soybeans seemed to be fine. Then he continued to recite the spell, but five or six times in a row, they all ended in failure. This made him
Quite a blow.
At this moment, Lao Bai came up from downstairs with a meal. In the past few days, Lao Bai had basically prepared the meals at the Taoist Temple and then delivered them to Xiao Yu, which made Xiao Yu live the life of an uncle.
"I haven't finished practicing yet, it's been a few days."
Seeing Xiao Yu sitting there with a sad look on his face, Lao Bai handed over the food and said with a smile.
"Yeah, it's been several days, and I've got calluses on my butt, but I still haven't succeeded. It's really strange."
Xiao Yu looked at the broken beans in front of him in depression, shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Don't worry, let's eat first and I'll take a look."
As Lao Bai said this, he also sat next to him, picked up the book Qi Men Dun Jia and started reading it, while Xiao Yu sat next to him and ate.
"Sowing beans creates soldiers, and recruits ghosts to become soldiers and generals. They can attach themselves to the beans and temporarily have human bodies...".
Lao Bai whispered softly, and then his voice gradually became quieter.
"Summoning the ghost? The ghost is underground and you are on the second floor. Is there no reason for the earth's energy to summon the ghost to attach itself to Huangdou?"
Lao Bai flipped through the book and said with a smile.
After hearing this, Xiao Yu was also stunned, and then his eyes lit up and he said, "You should be right. Let's go downstairs and try."
What Lao Bai said, Xiao Yu never thought that he had indeed been on the second floor these days. If what Lao Bai said was true, then he would definitely succeed this time.
Standing downstairs, Lao Bai closed the house. Xiao Yu recited a spell again, picked up a few soybeans and threw them out. The soybeans still rotated, but this time, wisps of black flew out from underneath the rotating soybeans and quickly entered the beans.
Immediately afterwards, the bean seemed to be stretched, slowly became larger, and began to expand. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a man with a sallow complexion.
Sui then slowly condensed the other beans into shapes and turned into several grown men, standing in the house.
"It worked, haha, Lao Bai, you are a genius, it really worked."
Xiao Yu excitedly stepped forward and touched several of the soybean figures, and found that their bodies were really different from human beings. They felt a little soft to the touch and their eyes were dull, like robots.
"move…".
After hearing Xiao Yu's order, several people took two steps forward, then turned around. Their movements were uniform, and they really looked like well-trained soldiers.
