Fairy cage

Before Yu Lie ascended the Purple Mountain, he had already sent a message through the token, requesting to see the Purple Candle Girl.

But when he arrived at the Taoist temple, the purple candle female Taoist priest was still in retreat and did not come forward to meet him. However, Yu Lie didn't care at all. Taoist priests had long lifespans and were no more secluded than Taoist disciples. It was normal to wait several months before replying.

Yu Lie did not express his request in the token because he was impatient.

On the one hand, he felt that if he asked Zi Zhu Nu Dao in person, the Dao Dao would be more likely to help him. On the other hand, he was worried that there might be a chance that the news would be leaked through the token.

Although the possibility of the latter is slim, there is no guarantee that Zizhu Nu Dao will worry about Yu Lie's incomplete confidentiality. For example, if he accidentally loses the token, the secret will be exposed, and she will not help Yu Lie.

In this way, Yu Lie waited honestly in the Taoist temple, and only sent a message requesting an audience every ten days.

Finally, when he requested for the third time, the token shook slightly after four days, and words emerged:

"Can."

At this time, Yu Lie was in the Taoist temple, his face showed joy, and he immediately rushed to the atrium of the Taoist temple to wait.

But the token flashed again immediately, and a specific time emerged.

He had no choice but to suppress his joy and continue to stay there honestly. He took the time to go down the mountain and return to the courtyard to handle some chores.

This day.

Yu Lie had been waiting in the Taoist temple for a long time, standing respectfully facing the backyard of the Taoist temple.

Suddenly, a burst of mist rose up, hazy, with a purple undertone, and it was the same as before when the purple candle girl appeared on the stage.

However, compared with the purple mist in the past, the mist today is clearer, and like purple clouds, it is more ethereal than magical.

When Yu Lie saw this scene, he immediately realized in his heart: "It seems that this cheap master's retreat was not in vain. Her cultivation has made a lot of progress."

So before Zizhu Nudao came out, he immediately bowed and bowed, shouting:

"See you, Master. Congratulations to Master for your great improvement in cultivation and boundless power!"

A chuckle came from the mist.

"Flattery!"

A female figure wearing a gauze stretched out. The plump insect tail under her body was whiter and tenderer than before, and it was dragged directly on the ground, squirming forward, and the human foot that was originally inserted on it disappeared. .

The purple candle girl chuckled softly: "Little guy, your mouth is so sweet. After all, you are 'knocking on the door' many times in a row. Why?"

Yu Lie immediately told the news he had obtained from the Taoist palace, as well as the suspicions in his heart.

And these days, while waiting for the summons from the female path, he also rearranged his thoughts, making them more logical and orderly than before, so that outsiders would not think it was groundless speculation.

Yu Lie cupped his hands and said: "Go back to Master. This junior suspects that there are changes in this experience, or that he may join forces with Taozhou... The experience is risky, please give me some guidance and save this junior's life!"

After listening to Yu Lie's words, Zi Zhu Nu Dao showed a thoughtful look in her eyes, and then she said with a playful smile on her face:

"Save your life? It's just a trial. How can I kill you? Moreover, practicing such things is a secret in the palace. Even if I know it, how can it be easily leaked? I am also afraid of the palace. The Law Enforcement Palace."

The female Taoist's excuses made Yu Lie's heart feel cold. But the other party immediately changed the subject and said again:

"But you are a clever little kid. Your mind is spinning very quickly. You only revealed a few clues in the palace, and you caught it, and you guessed it right."

She warned Yu Lie with a smile: "Don't say what you said today casually to others, otherwise someone will catch you and sue you. You will not be able to escape the crime of leaking secrets. Only then will you really One’s life is at stake.”

Yu Lie was suddenly pleasantly surprised again.

Because although Zizhu Nvdao said she couldn't reveal it, she directly acknowledged what he said, and in turn told Yu Lie not to talk nonsense.

This answer obviously verified his conjecture. In terms of function, it is no different from directly leaking secrets to Yu Lie.

Yu Lie made up his mind and immediately saluted happily: "Yes, remember the master's instructions."

With this confirmed news, most of what he wanted to know was already clear. Just when Yu Lie was wondering whether he should continue to make some insinuations so as to ask himself what preparations he should make.

Zi Zhu Nu Dao swam around, her eyes fell on Yu Lie, her spiritual consciousness spread out, and she saw through Yu Lie's current level of cultivation.

The female Taoist had a look of surprise in her eyes and said: "In just two years, you have completely completed the transformation of rejuvenating your energy and replenishing your brain. Not bad, not bad."

She paused and ordered: "Since you are only a few steps away from becoming a Taoist official and can be promoted through a normal change, you should also know some of the responsibilities of a Taoist official."

Yu Lie's heart moved and he said loudly: "Master, please speak!"

"The seventh-grade Taoist official can be regarded as breaking away from the status of an immortal apprentice. There are many explanations in the palace for why this realm is called 'official', but I believe that the origin of this name is mainly because the seventh-grade Taoist can secretly The spirit can leave the body, travel around the world, and can descend with the help of dragon energy. It is an indispensable part of the area ruled by the Taoist court. Whether it is a huge Taoist city or a barbaric foreign land, it cannot do without the hard work of the Taoist officials. Just like the ants in the ant colony and the worker bees in the bee colony.”

The female Taoist Zi Zhu said casually: "Becoming a Taoist official, you are qualified to become a ghost and god after death, and you are qualified to become a Taoist priest again. Both of these require merit and qualifications. How can you best earn qualifications?" To provide food, there is nothing better than going on expeditions in foreign worlds, such as helping the Taoist priests take care of the rear, serving as outposts, or serving as minions, etc... You will have to learn some of these when the time comes."

Yu Lie listened to the female Taoist talk. He was still a little confused at first and didn't understand why the other party turned to talk about the responsibilities of Taoist officials.

But after he listened a few more times, he found that the other party talked more frequently about foreign worlds and doing things to Taoist priests.

So Yu Lie suddenly spoke up and asked, "Master, are you saying that most poor Taoists are going to a foreign world and have to make preparations first?"

Zi Zhu Nu nodded.

Yu Lie probed again: "Then what Pindao should be most concerned about is to help Taoist priests in foreign worlds and deal with rear affairs?"

Zizhu Nudao smiled, nodded, and shook her head slightly.

Yu Lie paused slightly, and then uttered a few more probing words, but still did not get the female Taoist approval.

Suddenly, he paused and said:

"Taoist officials are small officials. They can be the pioneers to invade foreign worlds and form large armies... Could it be that Master is suggesting that poor Taoists go to a foreign world that is undergoing conquest, form an army, and expand territory?"

At this time, the smile on Zi Zhu Nu Dao's face became even wider, she covered her mouth and said in surprise:

"You little guy, you are really smart, you even guessed this."

She said: "But don't worry, letting you go to practice with the army is just to let you see blood and sharpen yourself. When the time comes, remember to abide by the rules and don't violate the rules on paper, otherwise you will definitely die. But, paper Don't worry too much about things other than those in front of you. There are no rules on the battlefield.

Moreover, the world that I am experiencing this time is a small world captured by Honshu and Taozhou. Ghosts are rampant in it, and only Taoist priests can enter it to clean it up. There is not much danger. And it happens to be a foreign land where ghosts are rampant, and there are special products in it, which are suitable for Taoists to take, and are more suitable for you to strengthen your soul and improve your transformation.

You don't need to be afraid of this battle. "

After saying these words, Yu Lie understood everything in his heart.

"Sure enough, it is another experience in a foreign land, and unlike the original Dragon Court world, this time I am accompanying the army and on the battlefield. I will probably be incorporated into the army to fight against foreign creatures."

He thought: "Ghosts are rampant in this world. It seems that we need to prepare some positive charms, positive medicines, etc. to catch and destroy ghosts. They will definitely be of great use by then!"

There was a look of gratitude on Yu Lie's face, and he quickly bowed his hands towards Zi Zhu Nu Dao and said, "Thank you, Master, for taking care of me."

However, when he was making insinuations and wanted to directly ask the name of the foreign world, Zi Zhu Nu Dao yawned and said with a smile:

"Any name related to a foreign world cannot be spoken easily. The fact that you can guess those things just proves that you are really smart, but if you can even guess the name of a foreign world, someone must have given it to you. If you leak the secret, be careful that the law enforcement priests in the palace serve you."

She nodded Yu Lie's head, then waved her insect tail and walked into the mist: "

"I've asked what I need to ask. I'm exhausted, so I'll go back first."

Yu Lie did not dare to disturb the other party for a long time, so he had to bow his hands respectfully: "Yes, I have disturbed the master today."

But just when she was about to submerge into the purple mist, the purple candle girl suddenly reached out and made a move.

Don't worry! The purple token hanging on Yu Lie's waist immediately flew out and landed in her hand.

She saw purple light in her hand, and there were runes surrounding it. After a few breaths, when the light on the token converged, the token had changed its appearance, its shape condensed, and runes were imprinted on the token. superior.

When the token flew out again, Yu Lie immediately stretched out his hand and held it in surprise.

"This order contains the true energy of the Tao, and it is not considered a sixth-grade spell. But if you hold it, you may be able to overwhelm Xiaoxiao, and use it to control spells, spells, etc. You can also barely increase the power, or you can release it directly. And estimate it. Use it, don't waste it.

I hope next time I see you, you little guy can take another step forward. "

The last words of Zi Zhu Nu Dao came out from the mist:

"Okay, let's go back. We have to stay in seclusion for a long time. If there are no life-threatening matters, don't disturb us. The Taoist temple will be closed. Zishan, you don't want to come either. Anyway, you can't make progress in Taoism for the time being. You should practice well at home. That is, so as not to encounter danger on the mountain."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Lie suddenly felt a repulsive force appearing in the Taoist temple. He and the Taoist temple seemed out of place. The force became stronger, became tangible, fell on him, and thrust him directly outside the Taoist temple.

After being forked out, Yu Lie stood in front of the door, looking at the Taoist temple with the magic circle inside, feeling a little dazed.

But he didn't dare to stay too long, because he found that the environment on Purple Mountain had changed faintly at the moment the Taoist temple was closed. The spiritual energy was more abundant than before, but the toxicity was also more intense.

Breathing in the increasingly dense poisonous gas, Yu Lie's complexion changed slightly, and he quickly ran away from Zishan without daring to stay any longer.

When he stood on the iron chain connecting the purple mountain, the huge purple mountain emitted a strange light, and even the air was distorted, like a flower bag that was about to mature and was brewing to burst out.

But fortunately, there are formations around Zishan. The iron chain connecting Zishan under his feet is the golden dragon energy rising around Zishan, protecting it and preventing the poisonous gas in the mountain from leaking out.

Yu Lie looked at the scene in front of him and understood why Zi Zhu Nudao wanted him not to even come to the mountain.

Yu Lie thought to himself: "Taoist priests are indeed Taoist priests, and they can make such noise just by being in seclusion. It seems that the master is either trying to break through to a great realm, or he is practicing powerful spells.

If I stay on the mountain, if she loses her temper or something, she may be affected to death. "

With envy in his heart, Yu Lie took a deep look at the bare purple mountain inside the magic circle.

He originally thought that he had completely adapted to the environment in Zishan, and he was worried that if he broke through and became a Taoist priest, the toxicity of the mountain might not be enough for him. In this way, it will be a question whether methods such as Poison Technique are worth practicing for him.

As a result, now, he discovered that Zishan was just "dozing off" in the past, and had restrained most of his toxicity, and now he barely showed his true appearance.

After thinking for a moment, Yu Lie suppressed his reverie. He looked down at the purple rune order in his hand, his eyes filled with joy again.

This thing was given by a sixth-grade Taoist priest, and it contains the opponent's true energy!

With this token, when I complete the training, I only need to hang the token around my waist, and I will be worry-free.

And just as Zizhu Nudao explained, Yu Lie only needs to not violate the regulations on paper. With this identity certificate, he may be able to run rampant in his experience and earn promotion qualifications for himself.

"Good treasure, although it is not a sixth-grade talisman, but to me, it is better than a first-class talisman. Moreover, during the training, whether the Taoist disciples can use the sixth-grade talisman is also a problem."

Yu Lie was overjoyed, and suddenly felt that Zi Zhu Nu Dao took good care of him. Not only did she reveal the secret, but she also gave her a Qi token, which made it clear that she would accept him as a disciple.

In this regard, Yu Lie was not a ungrateful person and wrote down this incident again. He stood on the iron chain, bowed deeply to Zishan, and then left.

After leaving Zishan Taoist Temple.

Yu Lie returned to the courtyard and continued practicing, refining elixirs, listening to Taoism and studying Dharma as usual.

He did not reveal any information about his experience, nor did he disclose it to those close to him. He kept a low profile as much as possible. He only privately read a large number of books related to the Immortal Army, and stocked up on spells and medicines to restrain ghosts. Rosen and Miaom's portions are also prepared.

Time passes quickly...
