Exorcism

As night fell, Asan's appearance changed.

The guests who were walking among the peaks suddenly discovered that there was a thick white mist below the waist, with little bits of light shining inside, corresponding to the stars in the sky. When walking among them, they felt as if they were in a strange lake. The mist It is so condensed that it can even be picked up with both hands. It will stay wherever you put it, like a group of fireflies trapped in a net.

The Taoist priests in Yashan were smiling and deliberately did not mention anything about it before. When the guests became interested in the mist, they said in a tone that was very ordinary for this scene: "The mist of the Tianhe covers a radius of three hundred miles. , it happens to be within the scope of the Asan Taoism. It is said that this fog is full of spiritual energy and is very helpful for spiritual practice, but we didn't notice it."

Yang Qingyin winked at Qin Lingshuang and Xiao Qingtao and said loudly: "It will definitely help practice. In such a thick fog, you have to use your third eye from time to time to see the road clearly. You go out for a walk every night. The Yashan Taoist priest must have special eyesight." powerful."

The female Taoist priests who accompanied him looked embarrassed and never mentioned the mist here again.

The bald man's head was like a fish in water here, running around with his mouth open, swallowing the spiritual energy in the fog, until he couldn't eat anymore, jumped back on Yang Qingyin's shoulder, and praised the environment here for being better than Pangshan.

After a while, he was thrown onto Qin Lingshuang's shoulders by Yang Qingyin.

The doors and windows of Yashan's room were wide and always open. Mu Xingqiu also saw the mist of Tianhe outside. The strange thing was that those mist were like shy guests, only staying outside the house and refusing to cross the boundary.

"Help is mutual." Mu Xingqiu repeated this sentence and smiled, "I wonder what help I can provide to fellow Taoists?"

"Don't rush to help. Just keep this in mind." Shen Jiyi said politely.

"It's not Yashan who's anxious, it's me. I'm willing to give gold and silver, and I'm willing to help, but I don't want to delay it until later. I don't want to think that I owe someone a big favor while I'm practicing."

Shen Jiyi raised his head and laughed several times, and said again, "As expected of Pangshan Taoist priest," and then said, "You can indeed do me a favor, and even do Yashan a favor. To show his gratitude, Yashan washed his sword." The pool is at your disposal and someone will provide you with the most reliable advice.

"I can do Asan a favor, but unfortunately, I can't help you."

Shen Jiyi was slightly startled, even though he was only four or five years older. But he always thought that he was much more mature and sophisticated than the little Taoist priest from Pangshan in front of him. His level of dining and being a master were enough to put Taoist priests who were much older than him to shame. But Mu Xingqiu, The Taoist priest who took the fourth breath was actually negotiating with him in an equal tone.

"The inheritance of Nian Xin Ke has been interrupted for many years. Sure enough, you will not choose your disciples casually." Shen Jiyi understood that the impression he had formed on Mu Xingqiu during the demon-killing drill was incomplete. "How can you help Asan? Or what else can you help me?"

Mu Xingqiu hesitated for a while before speaking. Although it was best for the other party to put forward the conditions first, he did not want to waste time, "Yashan is interested in reality and fantasy. You..."

"I'm interested in Yang Qingyin, but you would rather hand over Zhenhuan than help me win Yang Qingyin's favor?"

"Zhenhuan is mine, and Yang Qingyin is not a friend. I can't use my friends as gifts. Another thing is, even if I wanted to, there is no way to hand over Zhenhuan. The only thing I can do is to give Yashan Forbidden Secret Department a chance. It’s their business to let them test and see what they see.”

Shen Jiyi burst out laughing again, and the sound spread far away, causing the mist of the Tianhe outside to tremble slightly.

"The Sword Washing Pond is the treasure of Yashan, just like the Patriarch Pagoda in Pangshan. Are you only willing to do such a small favor, but in exchange for the right to use the Sword Washing Pond at will?"

Mu Xingqiu smiled and suddenly remembered what Princess Xijie said a few years ago: You should be grateful that you still have value for being used. I hope you can make good use of these values ​​instead of holding on to them and feeling sorry for yourself.

The two of them had only met that one side, but he was deeply impressed by the princess and would never forget these words. She was right. He should indeed feel lucky. Otherwise, he would have to choose between giving up the bald man and betraying his friends. make decisions.

Lin Sa told him to be wary of outsiders, which further proved that the real illusion was valuable.

"I saw those Asan Forbidden Secrets disciples." He said, not showing any annoyance at the other party's laughter.

Shen Jiyi stopped laughing and changed to a cheerful smile. This was his habitual expression. He could advance or retreat or defend. No matter what expression he changed next, it would not be particularly abrupt. The attack just now was easily avoided by his opponent. Open, he decided to adopt a more cautious tactic, "Those three people who talked to fellow Taoist Lan Qizhang?"

"Um."

"What happened to them?"

"Their cultivation level is obviously very high. I guess it should be Xingluo. Three Xingluo Taoist priests chatted enthusiastically with a Yanyan Taoist priest. This is a bit unreasonable. No matter how hospitable Yashan is to hospitality, it will not be like this. Maybe it's me. Too arrogant, I think the person the three of them are really looking for is me.”

Everything has traces to follow. The enthusiastic Yashan Taoist priest showed curiosity about Nian Xin Ke as soon as they met, and wanted to induce the only disciple of Nian Xin Ke to talk freely. Mu Xingqiu guessed that as long as he kept talking, the three Xingluo Taoist priests would take advantage of the situation. Joining the conversation, they waited until Mu Xingqiu was too cold and invited Lan Qizhang to visit the Asan Forbidden Secret Department.

"The Taoist priests from Yashan came here because of your face. The three of them are not very enthusiastic about you, so I think it must be because of the huge difference in cultivation realm."

Shen Jiyi laughed again, this time there was no sarcasm in the laughter, it was pure admiration, "Okay, but I can't make the decision. The grandmaster is not here, but a few chiefs are in charge of affairs. I have to ask them. Are you A smart man, I hope he won’t have a bad impression of Asan.”

"Asan is so hospitable and makes our group feel at home. It's too late to be grateful, so how can we have a bad impression?"

Shen Jiyi walked outside and suddenly stopped and said, "You are wrong, one is Xingluo and the other two are Yanyan. The Taoist priests of the Nine Dao Traditions all rely on their talents and arrogance, and it has little to do with their realm."

Shen Jiyi left, and Mu Xingqiu sat in a comfortable chair, recalling his performance just now. He had grasped Yashan's true intention, which was good, but it also had shortcomings. He acted too impatiently, almost He took the initiative to reveal everything. If he were a princess, he would definitely do better and leave no trace.

Perhaps it was this impatience that made Asan not eager to "help each other." That night, Shen Jiyi did not show up again, and his friends came back one after another, praising the beauty of Asan, discussing the similarities and differences between the two traditions, and then each went back to their rooms to rest.

In the next two days, the treatment received by Pangshan guests remained the same, except for a few important points. They visited almost the entire Asan Tradition and found that not only were there many mountains, but also many ponds, and the water inside also had its own characteristics. Some are crystal clear, some are shining brightly, or some are steaming. There is a pool of water that is black. It is said that there is a dragon living in it. It comes out only once every few hundred years, and the guests of Pangshan cannot catch up.

As a preferential treatment, eight guests can wash a magic weapon at a preferential price of one silver soul. It is said that this is the result of Shen Jiyi's efforts.

Everyone washed one piece each, and the mirror left by Li Yuechi was finally usable, which made Shen Hao very happy. Although the Youyashan Taoist priest tactfully told him that the mirror was of poor quality, he still decided to keep it for his own use.

Mu Xingqiu washed a treasure bag so that many of his things could be placed in it.

Fangfang originally got an oil lamp, but it was taken away by Xin Youtao and her whereabouts were unknown. Yang Qingyin felt that the discount opportunity could not be wasted, so she gave Fangfang an old copper seal.

Yang Qingyin brought dozens of old magic weapons and put them in a Qiankun bag. She washed them all and spent a total of ten gold souls and six silver souls. The price of the first one was one silver soul. , the rest are three silver souls. She swore that she would make back all the money she spent in Qishan, but judging from the expression on Yashan Taoist priest's face, it seemed that this wish was not easy to achieve.

None of the guests saw what the sword-washing pool looked like. The magical artifacts were handed over to the Yashan Taoist priests, who washed them and then returned them to their original owners. It is said that this was not the rule in the past, until a water theft occurred decades ago. After the incident, Asan prohibited any outsiders from approaching the sword-washing pool.

Mu Xingqiu did not send Baldy to have his mark washed. He had been reminded in Pangshan that Baldy was both a magical weapon and a living creature. Washing off the mark rashly could have unpredictable fatal effects.

He was waiting for Shen Jiyi's reply. Only a high-ranking Taoist priest from Yashan who knew the sword-washing pool well, or even a first-level Taoist priest, might be able to find a way to safely wash away the mark. This was a treatment that Jin Po could not buy. .

Shen Jiyi would come to accompany the guests every day, but he never mentioned the conversation on the first night, as if that incident had passed. Yashan was not interested in the deal proposed by a Pangshan Taoist priest.

Mu Xingqiu waited patiently, determined not to make the mistake of being impatient again.

Yang Qingyin couldn't wait any longer. No matter how hospitable Yashan was, it was also a place of cultivation. Apart from the unique landscapes and buildings, there was nothing interesting. She only thought of one thing now: go to Qishan quickly to sell magic tools.

Yashan Taoist priests are like businessmen, but the real market is not here, but in Qishan.

Several female Taoist priests tried their best to appease and retain Yang Qingyin. Mu Xingqiu saw this and felt more at ease.

On the afternoon of the third day as a guest in Yashan, Mu Xingqiu was left alone in the room again, and Shen Jiyi came to visit.

"Please forgive me, it is not easy for several leaders to reach a unanimous opinion, and you also know that high-level Taoist priests are always unhurried, and a few days is just a moment to them. Yashan is willing to help you wash away Mu Songxuan's mark , and keep it safe. In return, you have to undergo an inspection when the real illusion appears. "

"It's a coincidence that the second update tonight is when the real illusion appears." Mu Xingqiu knew that Yashan had already investigated clearly and was waiting for this day to reply, but he did not show it.

"As soon as it gets dark, I will come over and take you and Mu Songxuan to the sword pool, and then do the real illusion test." Shen Jiyi smiled and said, now that the deal has been reached, Yashan is willing to be generous and provide help first, "Taofa Wu Bian, there are always unexpected things happening. I have to remind you in advance that Asan will do its best to protect Songxuan's safety, but there is no guarantee that no accidents will happen. "
