Exorcism

In addition to Xiaoqiu, a total of thirteen Zhiyongsuo disciples agreed to practice together. The next morning, only eight people came one after another.

Guan Shenyue was the first to arrive. As a disciple of Huotong Santian, this distance was not a problem for him. He nodded to Xiaoqiu and walked to the open space in front of the house. He found a number of straw mats spread on the ground. There was a table with a bottle of elixir and two short and thick sticks of incense stuck in a small mound. He was not polite and first applied 1.5 knots on the philtrum between the nose and lips. Aoki ointment, sitting on a straw mat for practice.

Before the second disciple arrived, Guan Shenyue had already entered a state of contemplation. The two pieces of incense were automatically ignited, and two streams of light smoke floated towards the practitioner and entered his nostrils with his breathing.

Not long after, the second and third disciples arrived at the same time. They were both members of Guan Shenyue's small gang. They gave Xiaoqiu a Taoist courtesy, called "Brother Xiaoqiu", and also put on ointment and sat on the grass. Keep your thoughts on the mat and practice.

Each of the two pieces of burning incense was divided into three strands and supplied to three disciples respectively. The smoke did not weaken, but the burning speed was slightly faster.

A quarter of an hour later, Xin Youtao and Zhou Ping arrived. They seemed to be competing, blushing and out of breath. Zhou Ping said hello and went to practice. Xin Youtao stayed behind, out of breath, and asked Xiaoqiu: "This, this is how you help me." The method? Find a bunch of trash to practice with me? Do you know how much the pills my sister sent me are worth?"

"Are you distressed?"

"How is it possible not to feel distressed?" Xin Youtao looked at Xiaoqiu angrily, wanting to get angry but not daring to go too far.

"Then go practice cultivation quickly and earn more of your good stuff."

Xin Youtao snorted, knowing that this was Mu Xingqiu's method of provoking enemies, but he still fell into the trap. He hurried to the open space in front of the house, wishing to drive away all the people sitting on the straw mats, using Five-section Green Wood Ointment, Ningshen Incense and The Tongshen Incense was all his, but now it was shared by others, and the person these people were thanking was actually not him!

Xin Youtao hurriedly put on the ointment. Sitting on the straw mat closest to the table, it took a while to clear my mind and enter a state of contemplation. I unconsciously breathed harder than others, hoping to inhale more of the incense and incense.

Next came Daliang and three others. Nearly half an hour late, everyone was out of breath. The other two people were so tired that they fell directly on the straw mat, which was a little bigger. They put their hands on their knees and said, "Brother Xiaoqiu...I...tomorrow..."

"Well, you don't have to come tomorrow. I will find a way for you to plant flowers and plants."

Daliang nodded gratefully. He agreed to practice purely to support his friends. After one day, he couldn't stand it anymore. "Don't wait. Brother Xiaoqiu, there is no one behind you. They turned around and went back as soon as they left the village.

He said it was because he didn't have breakfast and had no energy, but in fact it was because he was afraid of the cold and tiredness. "

The two came to the clearing together. Xiaoqiu also sat down to practice. Daliang went directly to the house to lie down for a while, and then got up to wash rice and cook. He was starving.

When the Ningshen Incense and Tongshen Incense on the table were about to burn out, an accident happened - someone suddenly shouted.

The cry resounded through the sky, rumbling like thunder, with endless echoes. Even the horses grazing in the distance were frightened and looked around in fear. The brown foal quickly ran to the side of the mare with its tail tucked tightly; the horse had finished cooking and was resting in the house. Daliang was startled and fell from the bed to the ground.

This is not a tribulation, but the sound of a person who has had his orifice opened with extraordinary abilities.

Everyone who was thinking was awakened. Xiaoqiu was shocked. He reversed the movement in one breath and lost feeling in his legs. He hurriedly adjusted his breath and breathed out seven times before standing up. Others still looked panicked and tried to return to normal.

People who are thinking can be woken up, but it is taboo to be woken up suddenly like this. Fortunately, no one has condensed their energy into pills. This sound did not cause serious consequences, but this morning's thinking was wasted.

He was so angry that he looked around for someone to speak out.

Among the practicing disciples, there was only one missing, Guan Shenyue.

Daliang stood at the door and pointed to the entrance of the valley in surprise, "He ran over there."

Xiaoqiu quickly chased after him, running so fast that he almost missed Guan Shenyue.

Guan Shenyue squatted in the snow outside the valley, holding his head in his hands, rocking back and forth, and repeated the words "I'm sorry" in a low voice.

Xiaoqiu suppressed her anger, walked to Guan Shenyue, stretched out her hand and pulled him up.

Guan Shenyue resisted very much, but he couldn't compete with Xiaoqiu. He was forced to stand up and huddled up, becoming more than half a head shorter. "Hit me, beat me hard, I'm really sorry, I... I can't help it.

"What's going on?" Xiaoqiu tried his best to soften his voice. Guan Shenyue's behavior was a bit strange, and he had to ask why.

"I just can't help it." Guan Shenyue looked pitiful at this time, not at all like the bully senior brother he used to be.

"I... I always wonder what it would be like to scream when I'm thinking... I had this urge when I was still at Yangshen Peak, and later on at Laozu Peak... I couldn't forget this idea, several times The failure of the pill condensation was all related to this. Later, the leader said that I might...become a demon, so I better not take any more risks..."

Xiaoqiu really wanted to punch him, but she endured it again and again, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"I haven't had this thought since I came to Zhiyongsuo. I thought it was fine. Who knew it would still be like this during practice." Guan Shenyue said nonchalantly.

Almost no one in Zhiyong still maintained the habit of practicing spiritual practice, so he certainly didn't have the urge to shout.

Xiaoqiu was both angry and disappointed. Guan Shenyue was Xiaoqiu’s favorite person. Unexpectedly, something went wrong on the first day. Even the leader of the Five Elements Department couldn’t correct the problem. Xiaoqiu didn’t think she had any solution, “Go further.” , never come here again.”

Guan Shen jumped up and ran towards Zhi Yong as if he had received a general amnesty.

Xiaoqiu returned to the valley and found that Xin Youtao and others were in trouble. They were surrounded by horses and had nowhere to escape.

Guan Shenyue's sound annoyed the grazing horses, and they came to take revenge on humans.

Xiaoqiu hurriedly ran over and yelled, pushing and pulling, and finally managed to get the angry horses away. Zhou Ping and others were so scared that their faces turned pale and they no longer wanted to stay in the valley for a long time. They didn't even ask what the scream was about. It’s about business, I hurriedly said goodbye.

Daliang also came out of the house, "I've prepared the meal... I won't come tomorrow." After that, he ran away.

Xin Youtao was the only one left. When he saw the horses walking away, he sneered, "The first day. Oh, what a good start. Do you want to continue tomorrow?"

"Of course." Xiaoqiu said lightly, "Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, until you condense your energy into a pill."

"You're crazy." Xin Youtao took a step forward. "Let's be honest. This place is not suitable for practice at all. It is a group of lunatics. If they make trouble a few more times, we will not be able to condense the elixir, and we will become useless first. I know your intention in calling everyone here, isn't it just for you? Stimulate me and encourage me? If I work hard, why... waste the pills on others?"

Xiaoqiu stared at Xin Youtao and suddenly understood a truth, it was not just Guan Shenyue. Everyone in Zhiyongsuo may have a knot in their mind that makes them fail in practice, "Why do you like to use talismans so much?"

Xin Youtao blushed, then showed a confused expression, "talismans are good things, everyone uses them."

"I never have to."

"Because you are poor. Rich and noble people all use talismans. Doesn't the Nine Dao Tradition have a talisman branch? I really don't understand why Taoist priests don't like to use talismans."

"There is a talisman in Pangshan. It has been used by the Mengdu Sect, but the disciples cannot use it."

Of course Xin Youtao understood this rule and curled his lips without saying anything else, but Xiaoqiu's eyes still stared at him, making him feel uneasy. "What else do you want to do? My sister has taken all my talismans away, and I can't use them even if I want to. Now I am just like you, a 'poor' without talismans."

"You still haven't handed over the talisman." Xiao Qiu said firmly.

"All handed in, not a single one left." Xin Youtao also said firmly without blinking.

"It doesn't matter. I remember that everyone who can use the talisman has a Fire Sacrifice Seal on their body."

"Not everyone." Xin Youtao corrected immediately. He knew the talismans well. "Only when using advanced talismans, or if you want the talismans to be more effective, you need to sacrifice the Fire God Seal. This is the prerogative of the talisman master and the royal family. Ordinary people don’t have it. It is said that the inner elixir can also replace the divine seal, but I don’t think the effect is very good, why, because..."

"Remove the Fire Sacrifice Seal from your body."

"Remove the divine seal."

Xin Youtao took two steps back and said with an unprecedented firmness: "No, never, unless you kill me...then you won't be allowed to remove my Fire Sacrifice Seal."

Xiaoqiu finally determined what Xin Youtao's knot was, "Okay, let's not get rid of it yet. Come with me to the Immortal Collection, and I want to write a letter to your sister."

"Why are you writing a letter?" Xin Youtao asked warily.

"I want more pills, but this is not enough?"

"I can guarantee that I will be the only one who can continue to practice tomorrow. These pills..."

"That's not enough." Xiaoqiu shook his head, "And I also need better pills."

"You... are too cruel. This is the price for keeping the divine seal, right?" Xin Youtao was very angry, but had to follow Xiaoqiu out of the valley, "Why does my sister think you can do it? You haven't condensed yourself yet. Qi becomes elixir."

The two walked in silence for a while, and Xin Youtao suddenly laughed, "Qin Lingshuang is actually the first disciple to be selected this year. It's really unexpected. She must have something special to be chosen by the Forbidden Secret Department. Listen, It is said that Zuo Liuying is a very picky leader."

Xiaoqiu did not answer, and Xin Youtao continued: "'Once you enter Yangshen Peak, you will not leave the valley for three years.' In fact, there are two more sentences after it, 'Wkｋｓｃcomｍ Ten years will be like one day', which means that the life span of the Taoist priests It means that cultivation is difficult and there may not be much progress in ten years. Mu Xingqiu, aren't you worried that when you are old and Qin Lingshuang is still cultivating at the Ancestor Peak, you will have no chance to get married? "

"Everyone has his own way." Xiaoqiu remained unmoved.

Xin Youtao snorted. He wanted to verbally retaliate against Mu Xingqiu, but he didn't expect that this boy was more ruthless than he thought.

The subordinates left behind by the princess lived in an inn at the north end of Xianrenji. Xiaoqiu wrote a letter in his own handwriting and made a list. Xin Youtao wanted to take a look, but he pushed him away rudely, "My writing is ugly."

Xin Youtao leaned against the window and looked out boredly. He suddenly retracted his head and whispered: "Zhang Lingsheng is outside, don't let him see me. He has been chasing me for five knots of green wood ointment these past two days."

Xiaoqiu put down the brush and said, "I'm here to deal with him. I just want to talk to him about a few things."

"Strange, why isn't he wearing a Taoist robe?" Xin Youtao raised his finger and hissed at Xiaoqiu, then pointed out the window, obviously seeing an even stranger scene.
