Exorcism

Xiaoqiu walked around the woodland near the house and arrived at another dining hall just as lunch was over. The male disciples lined up to return to their rooms. They wanted to rest for a while and prepare for the afternoon practice.

When there was no one on the corridor, Xiaoqiu walked quickly to a house, raised his hand and hesitated for a moment, and knocked on the door gently.

"Who?" The voice in the room showed a bit of vigilance, not like a Pangshan disciple who was concentrating on practice.

Xiaoqiu knocked on the door again.

"Come in." The person inside reluctantly responded, as if he was very unhappy to have someone visit.

Xin Youtao sat on the bed, looking at Xiaoqiu who pushed the door in with surprise, "It's you? What are you doing here?"

His room was as small as others, but it was full of suitcases and bags. Some of them seemed to have never been opened and had accumulated a thin layer of dust.

"Let's chat." Xiaoqiu sat on a chair at the door, facing Xin Youtao.

Xin Youtao became more alert, "This is not the Jinghu Village Hall, be careful, don't get yourself into trouble."

Xiaoqiu smiled, "It seems that you haven't changed much, Yangshen Peak has little impact on you, let's talk about this."

"I don't want to talk." Xin Youtao was very annoyed, thinking that the other party was mocking his stagnant practice and he still didn't understand anything.

"Okay, I came to ask you a question."

"Ask me?" Xin Youtao was stunned again, got down to put on his shoes, and looked at Xiaoqiu left and right, "I'm telling you, don't play tricks on me, I'm not someone who can be fooled... What do you want to ask me?" He still couldn't help his curiosity.

"It's like this, a person obviously dislikes you, hates you, but doesn't show it, but suddenly apologizes to you and asks for peace, why is that?"

Xin Youtao suddenly realized, "Oh, you mean Fellow Daoist Shen Ji." He paused and looked at Xiaoqiu, "A person who has attained the Tao has no desires and no conflicts. His seven orifices are open, and his mind and nature will naturally change. You should believe in his sincerity.

Xiaoqiu heard that he was mocking, "Don't you want to see the two factions clash? Don't you want me to throw my arms around and fight for territory? Then do me this little favor."

Xin Youtao once served as a lobbyist for Shen Geng. At that time, he bluntly revealed that his real purpose was to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. Xiaoqiu brought up the old matter again, which made him a little hesitant, "So you still remember what I said."

"I remember, and I remember a lot. "You..." Xin Youtao's face flushed. He had expected that the other party would launch this attack sooner or later, but he couldn't hide his anger when it came. He regretted his negligence a month ago and actually revealed to this wild child his past failure in the struggle in the palace. "You said that the game is a battle. Don't you want to participate in this game?" Xiaoqiu added. Xin Youtao found that he had misunderstood. Mu Xingqiu didn't mean to threaten him with that matter, so he coughed twice, "Are you really asking me for advice?" "Well, I think among our group of disciples, only you can see through the truth of this game." Being flattered by someone you fear, even if it is just an ambiguous sentence, is enough to make people happy. Xin Youtao didn't want to show too happy, but he couldn't help but smile on his face. He coughed a few times and put on a serious mysterious expression, "This is not called the truth, this is called the rule. " "Oh? "

"To be honest, I don't understand the rules of Pangshan Taoism, but I think many principles are common.

The rules of the royal family of Xijie Kingdom are also suitable here. If you want to know why Shen Ji apologized, you must first determine your respective positions. "

"We are both disciples of Pangshan, but he comes from a Taoist family, and I come from Yelin Town. "

"Hehe, you are still so proud. In the final analysis, you have seen too little of the world." Xin Youtao walked in front of Xiaoqiu, kicked away a useless package, and his eyes flashed with excitement. "How can Yelin Town be compared with the Taoist family? Let me ask you, who has the highest status in your Yelin Town?"

"Shen Hao's family, his father is the town guard, and he is also the richest master in the town, and the house..."

"Enough, enough, let me ask you again, in Yelin Town, especially in front of Shen Hao's father, would you say "our Mu family and Shen family"? "See, that's the truth. In Pangshan Daotong, the Shen family is the 'master', and you are still Xiaoqiu, with a status similar to that Liu Er." "But Master Shen will not apologize to anyone in the town." "That's because his status is not high enough." Xin Youtao was in high spirits. It was much more interesting to show off to outsiders the way of dealing with people and things that he had mastered than to practice meditation. "What is true contempt? It's not to yell at you, nor to step on you, but to treat you as if you don't exist. In Xijie City, I wear the most gorgeous clothes and eat the most exquisite food, but do I need to get to know tailors and chefs? No; groups of servants walk around me and do all kinds of things for me, but I don't remember any of their names - this is called contempt! If you want to be my enemy, you must first be of similar status to me. In Jinghu Village, everyone's status is messed up, but that is temporary. In Yangshen Peak, status will restore its original importance. " "Shen Ji apologized for despising us? "Xiao Qiu was confused. The royal rules sounded like a bunch of contradictory bastards.

"That's it." Xin Youtao shrugged, and the sense of superiority that had been lost for a while came back. "He apologized to you, you accept the apology, and the matter is over. People will never say again that 'Mu Xingqiu wants to ask the Shen family "Seeking revenge", "Mu Xingqiu wants to provoke Yang Dujiao" and the like. For you, such rumors are an honor, but for the Shen family, it is like if my name is mentioned every day. If someone is compared to a cook, no matter what he says is good or bad, I will be ashamed to death."

Xiaoqiu understood a little bit, "So Shen Ji really wants to be on the same page with me from now on?"

“Haha.” Have you never thought that the Shen family also has a revenge plan? "

"I know Shen Geng will kill someone again in five years."

"Isn't this clear? You and your fellow villagers belong to Shen Geng and only Shen Geng. If Shen Ji stood up for his brother, it would be a shame to Shen Geng; if Yang Dujiao stood up for his son, it would be a shame to Shen Geng. Her shame, who is she? A return-wind master in the Xingluo realm, showing even a hint of hatred towards you will be a stain on her life."

"Thank you." Xiaoqiu stood up and felt that it was almost done. She couldn't listen to Xin Youtao's words too much, let alone believe them all. Xiaoqiu had to ensure that she would not be dragged into the trap by the prince.

Xin Youtao, however, was still unfinished. He licked his lips and said, "Have you noticed that at Yangshen Peak, everyone lines up according to their room number and rarely walk side by side. In this way, no one shakes their arms to grab a seat. Do you think this counts? Is that a good thing?"

"I don't know." Xiaoqiu thought for a while, then opened the door and left.

Xin Youtao turned around proudly, jumped on the bed and decided to take a nap. Even if Mu Xingqiu only took half of these words seriously, he would have gone further on the road to becoming a demon, if he really had a demon seed in his body.

"He will believe it." Xin Youtao whispered to himself, "Because what I tell you is the truth. Hey, I can't force you to become a demon, so I'll help you become a demon."

The afternoon homework was conducted in the Qiyao Hall, which is also a hall embedded in the mountain. The area is smaller than the Sizu Hall. There is a row of wooden shelves against the wall to place many weapons.

"You haven't condensed your energy into elixirs yet, so you can't cast the Five Elements spells, but you must first learn the basic skills of spell casting." Du Jiao Yang Baozhen pointed to the row of wooden shelves, "Choose the artifact you like and treat it as a magical artifact."

Most people choose swords, and Xiaoqiu is no exception. Ever since he saw Li Yuechi kill a snake demon, he has stubbornly believed that Taoist priests should wear swords. Some people choose to use iron rulers and iron rods, especially female disciples, who are more willing to use swords. Light utensils such as iron fans and ruyi.

Yang Baozhen showed off her magic weapon, an emerald green jade Ruyi, which immediately attracted the attention of all the disciples, especially Xiaoqiu.

"All Taoist priests who condense Qi into elixirs must build themselves a magic weapon. It is likely to accompany you throughout your life. There are many benefits to the magic weapon. I will introduce the others if you want. I won't go into details. I will only teach you the five elements. How do Taoist priests use magic weapons? First, male disciples hold the magic weapon with their left hand, and female disciples use their right hand."

Yang Baozhen held Ruyi in her right hand, raised her left hand, put her thumb against her ring finger, and held the other three fingers upright with gaps between them. "This is the Dao Fire Technique. It is not only a gift for meeting fellow Taoists, but also the basic technique for casting spells. Sudden Encounter with Demons Using this method, you can immediately activate the magic weapon and cast a protective spell. Please try it like I did. .aｎh. "

This one is easier to learn. The disciples have to do the greeting ceremony several times every day. The posture is exactly the same, except that there is an extra magic weapon in the hand behind the back, and there is no need to bow.

Yang Baozhen also taught his disciples the seven moves of Taohuo Jue: the hand behind his back should not move, the Daohuo Jue of the other hand should be stopped in front of the chest to protect the heart, over the shoulder to protect the head, and to point to the ground to protect the lower plate. And so on.

Although the magic weapons in everyone's hands are just ordinary objects and cannot cast any spells, everyone has practiced well.

"There are one hundred and eight Taoist techniques, and Dao Fire Technique is just one of them. Each technique has several variations, with a total of 961 techniques. Some of you may have already decided to enter the Five Elements Department, so you must start from Start practicing today until you can master it at your fingertips. As for those who are not interested in the Five Elements, they must also be proficient in using these techniques. There are demons outside the avenue, and no one can guarantee that you will never encounter danger and eliminate them. Fighting demons is the duty of every Taoist priest."

Xiaoqiu was surprised that Yang Baozhen could say similar words to Meng Yuanhou. The two were both Taoist priests of the Five Elements, but one always emphasized "against heaven" and the other valued "shun heaven" more. They didn't look like the same people at all. .

What surprised Xiaoqiu even more was that the jade Ruyi in Dujiao's hand, both in color and shape, was exactly the same as the magic weapon Shen Ji stepped on when he went to the cave, only slightly smaller.

In any case, it is impossible for a person to dream of something he has never seen before. Xiaoqiu suddenly believed a little more in Xin Youtao's analysis. At the same time, he became even more convinced that he had spent more than one disaster in the cave. .
