Chapter 8 The Paper Man's Wife Is Lost, Only Alchemy To Live By
"you!"
The tiger power king was shocked and angry.
Where did the monkey come from and be so unreasonable?
"well!"
Fei Hai turned his head silently, feeling that he could not afford to lose face.
It's so shameless to sneak up on someone while they're reciting poetry.
Bang!
Soon after saying this, King Huli took out a machete and placed it on the iron rod.
The bodies of both sides trembled, each feeling the other's innate power.
The King of Tiger Power is originally a big tiger. In addition, he occupies one side, his esophagus is full of blood, and his muscles are trained horizontally. He has the power of nine cows and two tigers.
Although Huang Shang is only a full-month-old baby, the Four Monkeys of Hunyuan are the kind of monsters that have their lower limit set right after they are born. The air mixes with the air every day, and they have the power of nine cows and two tigers.
You must know that the power of the ox and tiger in this world is different from that in the ordinary world. The nine ox and two tigers are also the same magical power. On this basis, Buddhism has developed the power of the dragon and the elephant, and the next step is the power of subduing the dragon and subduing the tiger.
Just looking at strength, this is the third level.
Of course, starting with the power of the dragon and elephant, it is not just strength, subduing the dragon and subduing the tiger is even more divine power.
"Drink! Ha!"
Now the two demons are like nine cows and two tigers. The swords and sticks intersect, and they run with majestic power like thunder. They roar loudly and create a strong wind, causing the little demons on both sides to get out of the way.
Overturning the sea is one of the few who can support it. Seeing this powerful duel that is beyond the competition between novices, I immediately became inspired by poetry: "If you don't meet an opponent, you will know who is weak and who is strong. Only when you are of the same mind can you see whether you are high or low."
!”
He originally expressed his feelings, but after he finished chanting, he felt indescribably happy. Seeing Huang Shang waving the stick and not paying attention to him, he felt secretly happy in his heart and continued to translate.
Huang Shang: Normal attack.
Tiger Power King: Normal attack.
Fu Hai immediately praised: "That one showed his teeth and claws, this one turned around, this time he stabbed him in the chest, and that time he swallowed him in the face."
Huang Shang: Normal attack x 3
Tiger Power King: Taoist attack.
Fan Hai sighed in amazement: "The waves are jumping over the waves, the universe is dark, the fog is blowing out, the wind is blowing, the sun and the moon are dim, the stars are shining brightly in the desert, the fog is rising, the sky and the earth are hazy!"
"I'll give you the pen and you can write, okay?"
Huang Shang's ears twitched and he couldn't care less about this.
Thirty days of transformation time really cannot suppress the instincts of these monsters, and they still need to be slowly trained.
Take down this Tiger Power King first.
The King of Tiger Power didn't think so. The simple power of nine cows and two tigers was nothing more. He also practiced Taoist orthodox magic. After walking for dozens of rounds, he suddenly used a dragging knife technique, and then chanted a spell:
"The Lord of Thunder is so angry that he rides the fire beast upside down and descends to the pass of heaven!"
"The Mother of Lightning is angry and grabs the golden snake from Dou Mansion!"
Click!
Suddenly, the sky was filled with dark clouds, thunder and lightning struck, and all the little demons were so frightened that they knelt down and worshiped.
"Who are you fooling?"
Huang Shang looked at the Thunder God and Lightning Girl emerging in the air, but he was speechless.
Thunder, lightning, wind and rain in this world are all caused by gods working behind the scenes.
Needless to say, it rains. The Dragon King of the Four Seas always takes the blame. Sun Wukong comes to him whenever he has trouble. When there is thunder and lightning, there are also thunder and lightning.
Therefore, when strong men fight, it looks like a one-on-one battle, but in fact it is like a summoner. You summon the Thunder God and the Lightning Lady, I summon the Six Ding Liujia, you summon the Six Yao Divine Generals, and I summon the Zhuyao Star Officers.
I can call a hundred gods and you can send a group message on WeChat and call two hundred gods...
Very good, everything has a background, shake hands and make peace, punish yourself with three glasses of wine!
And the Tiger Power King is undoubtedly the kind of person with no background. The Thunder God and Lightning Mother are recruited to come?
Haha, you are fooling the devil!
Huang Shang recognized at a glance that the Thunder God and Lightning Mother were not real gods at all, but just a shadow.
It seems that when it thunders and rains, other monsters collect their clothes, and the Tiger Power King stares at the Thunder God and Lightning Girl, collects their auras, integrates them into his body, and then practices this thunder, and uses it to fight the enemy at critical moments.
To put it bluntly, the Thunder God and Lightning Girl recruited now are paper people.
Of course, the paper man does not mean that he has no power. The lightning flashed first, and then the thunderous thunder fell. In the endless sound of wind and thunder, the sound of Huli Daxian's knife seemed particularly harsh, the light was bright, and the murderous aura rushed into the night, and it strangled Huang Shang.
.
“Not bad!”
Huang Shang secretly nodded and praised him. He is worthy of being the future Great Immortal of Hu Power. It is quite rare for him to be able to practice to this level by just groping blindly.
To show respect, he closed his eyes.
All six ears twitched together.
Start listening.
I listened to the sound before in a non-combat state, but now I am in a combat state.
In the world of Tianlong, he experienced the accumulation of literary spirit. In the world of Tang Dynasty, he experienced the division of vitality. In the world of Fengyun, he analyzed the will of flesh and blood. In the world of Immortal Sword, he analyzed the true meaning of faith. They all used vision and senses.
But this time, I used my complete sense of hearing.
Listen to the sound of the sea crying.
This is no exaggeration, because at this moment, even though we are inland in Hezhou, Xiniu, still thousands of miles away from the ocean, the sound of the sea really reaches our ears.
Because sound is transmittable, there is no need to specifically trace it. As long as you stay where you are, sound waves will be transmitted from all directions.
What these sound waves represent is originally impossible to distinguish clearly and can only be accepted passively, but Huang Shang's six ears exist specifically to analyze this information.
Everything is clear!
Hearing is invincible and he has six ears!
At this moment, those sound waves turned into infinite information and came in all at once. Huang Shang easily took the location of the image of the thunder male and lightning female into his mind, and at the same time he could clearly hear the trajectory of the thunder and lightning.
Ever since, the King of Tiger Power, who thought he had a chance to win, was shocked to find that this ignorant monster in front of him picked up the iron rod and drew an indescribable weird arc. The last strike came first, bang bang bang bang bang bang six times.
, hitting the thunder male and lightning female in mid-air.
With each blow, his body moved left and right, up and down, giving him an inexplicable and unrestrained feeling.
After receiving this standard three consecutive blows, the Thunder God and Lightning Girl were immediately beaten to ashes and annihilated, and the pieces of paper fell down.
"ah!"
Seeing that the paper man's wife was gone, King Huli screamed and fell backwards as if struck by lightning.
He is not good enough and uses thunder. If he succeeds in destroying the enemy, it will be nothing more. If he fails, it will be fatal and he will lose his combat power.
Huang Shang was not polite and hit him with a stick.
"Crack!"
This stick was strong and strong, completely dispelling the strength of the tiger demon. The burly man in Taoist robes rolled on the spot and turned into a big tiger.
Then the stick falls again.
If this stick hits hard again, the Tiger Power King will become a specimen.
His purpose is to expand his territory and increase his power. He does not really want to kill all the monsters around him, but it is definitely not possible to be merciful and merciless when the monsters fight, so he needs a step.
The guy Fu Hai was still reciting poems intoxicatedly, and he didn't notice it at all, but the cleverest one, Shou Hu, cried out sadly: "Spare my life! Spare my life!"
As soon as he roared, the other tiger monsters also woke up from a dream and all fell to the ground.
Huang Shang naturally put the stick on the head of King Huli: "Do you accept it or not?"
"I...is convinced!"
The demon clan is good at this, they are not blind and harsh, and the winner is king.
Since Huang Shang had beaten him openly, King Hu Li lowered his head without any pretense and let the iron rod poke him on it.
"From today on, your mountain peak is my territory!"
Huang Shang put the stick on his shoulders: "Little brother, let's go!"
A group of newly recruited tiger cubs followed obediently and headed towards the mountain peak.
The environment here has been introduced before. If Huang Shang was not a monster now, it would be a pity that such a paradise was eroded by monsters and became like this, but I don't think anything about it now. Sure enough, the trumpet decides the head.
In front of the cave where Huli lives, there is another couplet——
The sun and moon guard the alchemy furnace, and the universe enters the medicine furnace.
"Hey, he's still good at alchemy!"
Huang Shang glanced sideways at Fei Hai: "Tell him the rules!"
Fu Hai came close to Hu Li and muttered something.
The strength of the tiger and the body of the tiger trembled... This word was finally used correctly. He looked at Huang Shang in confusion, and then turned away reluctantly.
Look at this look, if he had known Huang Shang's rules before, he might have preferred death to surrender.
If you don’t recite poetry, you’d rather die!
Now that I have become a little brother, of course I don’t have to say anything, so I go up, tear off the couplets, and open the cave door.
Huang Shang walked in and found that the decoration method was similar to that of Jiuwei Mountain. There was no decoration, but the furniture was still purchased. There were many herbs around and a large alchemy furnace in the middle, which was a bit like the Bagua furnace in the TV series Taishang Laojun.
.
It was a TV series from the 1980s, and it was definitely lacking in props. The thing in front of me actually looks like this, which shows how low-grade it is.
But it is still a pill furnace after all.
Under Hu Li's distressed gaze, Huang Shang patted the alchemy furnace and asked, "Can you make alchemy?"
The strength of the tiger and the body of the tiger shook again. I was afraid that it would be damaged by the shot, so I hurriedly said: "I know it just a little bit!"
Huang Shang exclaimed: "Where did you learn it?"
In order to let his furry paws remove his treasure, Huli hurried into the cave. After a while, he came out, holding a copy of "Huangting Tao Te Ching" in his hands and offered it to him.
Just after handing it to Huang Shang, Hu Li suddenly asked in a low voice: "Brother, are you literate?"
If you ask this question, even Song Gongming will probably find an opportunity to do it to you secretly.
How could the leader be Zhang Yu?
Huang Shang sneered and opened the first page, looked at it carefully, and handed it over: "Read it!"
What kind of glyph is written on it?
It’s not Chinese characters?
You made a mistake. Turks still speak Chinese. What do you mean by not using Chinese characters in your Taoist heritage?
As a man who was once the leader of Sanyuan, Huang Shang felt trembling with anger.
Hu Li took it back with a genuine expression, and said: "Yang Chen paused, I will be honest with you, I will return my humble ministers to my fate, and I will respect the Three Pure Ones..."
Magnificently, eloquently.
Huang Shang listened and quickly frowned.
This is not the Tao Te Ching, this is the Rainbow Fart Sutra, right?
Taoism should not be able to adjust this way...
There was no other way, Huli read it for half a quarter of an hour, and actually said hello to Sanqing and various Taoist bigwigs.
Translated into vernacular:
Good morning, boss, good afternoon, boss, good evening, boss. Are you tired? Boss, you have to go to the toilet yourself. It’s really hard work!
Huang Shang felt something was wrong.
Taoism prefers to transcend the world, and although it often resorts to all possible means to fight for imperial power, the Taishang's thought of inaction still affects the way of cultivation to a greater or lesser extent.
To put it more bluntly, even if you flatter me, it’s useless. I won’t even try to flatter you.
So what’s the point of this rainbow fart?
Fake secrets?
But when Huang Shang heard the thunder method and elixir technique in the second half, he discovered that the profound and profound cultivation methods in it were definitely not fake.
He thought for a while and came to a conclusion: "In this world, I always feel that Sanqing is unreliable..."
It can be seen from the incident of Che Chiguo that the three big demons wanted to move closer to the system, but unfortunately they chose the wrong Taoism and were politically incorrect.
One of the details is horrifying if you think about it carefully, that is, Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie and Monk Sha casually impersonated the statues of the Three Pure Ones, fed the three demons urine, and falsely claimed it was holy water.
How disrespectful! How disrespectful!
The three bosses may not be too lazy to care, but the situation behind this casualness is worth pondering.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it!"
Huang Shang recorded this point for the time being and refocused his thoughts on this technique.
In this skill, the inner master is alchemy, and the outer master is thunder method.
In the world of Journey to the West, the most attractive thing is magical weapons, but in fact, the core cultivation mode of this world is alchemy.
The way of alchemy is connected with the inside and outside, and the Qi and matter are the same, just like the heaven, earth, nature, and the small universe of life.
The human body's posture, with the head touching the sky and the feet touching the ground, has 360 major acupuncture points, corresponding to the 360 degrees of heaven, the four seasons and eight festivals, all the heavens are prepared, and all phenomena gather together, it can be regarded as a complete body.
Small universe.
The Bagua furnace is divided into eight gates of heaven and earth, implying yin and yang, water and fire, the five elements of heaven and earth, the four seasons and eight festivals, the degree of the heaven and earth are all included in it, the civil and military fire, whether fast or slow, whether urgent or slow, the practice of alchemy, regulating the breath and training, and transporting
Zhou Tian, so the way of refining alchemy is connected with refining qi. Refining elixir is both refining qi and refining people.
This is why gods, demons and demons are all in human form, and the Buddhas of the Three Purities are also in human form.
The boulders that gave birth to psychic stone monkeys have various indicators.
No way, be particular about it.
If there is anything missing, it is a defective product, and it is doomed that the achievement will not be high.
Of course, even in human form, it is extremely difficult to cultivate.
Therefore, in addition to inner elixirs, there are also outer elixirs.
Inner elixir is self-cultivation, and outer elixir is the improvement of external objects.
There is no distinction between the two.
There is no such thing as taking drugs and being at the lower level. You must cultivate yourself to be at the upper level.
Just imagine, the inner elixir absorbs the essence of heaven and earth, and the outer elixir is made from medicinal materials that absorb the essence of heaven and earth. What is the difference between the two?
If there are any hidden dangers, it would be because the level of alchemy is not good enough, which is completely normal.
Self-cultivation can lead to obsession. Why should alchemy be flawless?
Take Sun Wukong as an example. He worshiped Patriarch Bodhi and first practiced the inner alchemy method. After practicing to a certain extent, he began to learn supernatural powers.
Note that the most critical purpose of Bodhi imparting magical powers to him was not to fight, but to avoid the three disasters.
The way to immortality in this world is an extraordinary way. After the inner elixir is refined into a golden elixir, although it can preserve one's appearance and lengthen one's life, there are three calamities that will make one's life equal to that of heaven, but one cannot survive this life.
This is the purpose of the transformation of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gangs and the Seventy-two Earthly Evils.
The method of avoiding disasters has been carried forward and turned into an upright magical power. The idea is really powerful, and the method of fighting is actually included.
As for the outer elixir, Wukong ate the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir from Haise in the Tushita Palace, which is the outer elixir.
So many external elixirs pushed his cultivation to the extreme, and then he was forged in the Bagua Furnace, and the inside and outside became one, and he was so awesome that he entered the Lingxiao Palace.
Now, Huli has cultivated the inner elixir himself, which is also the so-called demon elixir, and then collected various medicinal herbs in order to refine an outer elixir and improve his cultivation.
After all, the demon clan's cultivation is too slow, and it accumulates over time, and they really can't bear it anymore.
"When refining external elixirs, having a powerful cauldron and a powerful weapon are the basic conditions. In your environment..."
Huang Shang shook his head repeatedly.
"You go ahead!"
Huli reluctantly swallowed these words.
The demon is under the eaves, so I have to bow my head.
Fortunately, he didn't say anything. The next moment, Huang Shang stretched out his hand, opened the Bagua stove, and took a look inside: "What kind of fire are you talking about?"
Hu Li pointed below: "It's the Earth's Lung Hot Fire."
Pure natural flame is undoubtedly not suitable for a novice.
I can't control it at all, it all depends on God's happiness.
"Turn on the stove!"
Huang Shang ordered.
Hu Li just thought he was curious. After all, he heard from Fu Hai that this person was still a baby, so he turned on the stove indifferently.
Anyway, when he makes alchemy, he doesn't look at his skills but only his face, and that dark face also reflects his success rate.
Without expectations, there is no such thing as failure. The so-called materials are also collected in the mountains and there is no cost, so just take a listen!
Hu Li has been proficient in alchemy for decades, and his technique is still very smooth. He turns on the furnace, pours the medicine, and turns off the furnace, all in one go. Then he starts the formula and recites a poem: "Fire..."
Just as he blurted out a word, he saw the look in Huang Shang's eyes and swallowed it hard.
"very good!"
Huang Shang patted his shoulder happily, then listened attentively.
The listening test begins.
Fire: Huhu~huhu~
Translation:Don’t touch me!
Fire: Huhuhuhu~
Translation: Burn everything!
Fire: Huhuhu~huhuhu~
Translation:I’m tired!
By listening to the movement of the fire, Huang Shang accurately grasped the rhythm of the fire's throat.
No one knows better than him...
Forget it, don’t brag, there are a lot of people who know more about it than he does.
However, it still takes a process to transform this fire throat into the refining and use of elixirs.
Moreover, the heat in the earth's lungs is indeed extremely unruly and will burn everything out most of the time. I'm afraid it won't happen ninety-nine times a night. It's not easy to find when it's tired...
So soon, the first furnace failed.
Huang Shang waved his hand, indicating that he should practice again.
Hu Li continued to practice.
So again and again.
"The materials are running out!"
When the fifth furnace was reached, Huli looked at the herbs piled next to him and said.
Huang Shang ignored it and continued to listen. When the tiger demon was two-thirds of the way through, he suddenly took action and began to beat the alchemy furnace rhythmically.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Hu Li was heartbroken when he saw it, and Fu Hai was confused, but then, they smelled a fresh fragrance.
This is a smell they have never had before. It used to smell like paste, but now it smells so fragrant that they can't stop watering...
"Could it be that?"
The next moment, Huang Shang stretched out his hand and patted it. The lid opened, and round, earth-yellow pills flew out. There were twelve pills in total, and they all fell into his hand.
