Journey To Longevity

"Welcome fellow daoist to visit the shop. I am the manager of this shop. You can call me Ou Yeyan."

"I heard from the shopkeeper Huang next door that there is a fire toad here, which can emit a demon fire comparable to the fire of the earth's lungs. I am curious and come to have a look. The shopkeeper doesn't mind." The fire toad swallowed by a large piece of bloody meat has red skin covered with a layer of greasy mucus, which is different from the uneven skin of ordinary toads. The skin of this fire toad is very smooth, Zhang Shiping noticed On the ground below the toad, there are many small black pits one by one.

This fire toad eats very quickly. When Zhang Shiping first entered the store, the pot of meat that the shopkeeper Ouye just brought was more than a dozen yuan, and each piece weighed at least three or four catties. The total weight is quite a lot. The toad didn't even chew, and in just twenty or thirty breaths, it wiped out all the flesh and blood in the wooden basin, leaving only some blood in the wooden basin.

"Fellow daoist, please sit down. Huo Chan is here. Just look around. If you need anything, just tell me." Huo Chan was locked in the corner by an iron ring, and shopkeeper Ou Ye brought Zhang Shiping into the shop. He sat down, the chair was in the other corner of the shop, three or four zhang away from Huo Chan.

Shopkeeper Ouye has seen a lot of monks like Zhang Shiping who are curious about Huochan, and all the ones introduced by Shopkeeper Huang are like this. They are very curious about Huochan, a monster that can assist in refining weapons. The inside also uses this as a gimmick.

Besides, everyone who enters the door is a guest, so he will naturally not refuse.

Shopkeepers like Ouye, who run a refinery shop, have better business than others, and more than half of the credit goes to this Huo Toad that their family has raised for nearly 80 years. Because of this Huo Toad, curious The more monks, the more people come to the door, and the business is booming.

"Fellow Daoist, your surname, the shop doesn't have any good tea, and I hope you don't dislike it." He immediately got a cup of warm tea from the teapot on the table, and said to Zhang Shiping with a smile.

"I'm bothering the shopkeeper Ou Ye. My surname is Lin." Zhang Shiping took the tea, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, he drank it again and took a sip.

"Drumming..." Huo Chan ate up the meat in the wooden basin, and when he saw that the second basin of flesh and blood hadn't been served, he became very irritable. When the shopkeeper Ouye greeted Zhang Shiping, it was beside One barked, louder and louder, and the shopkeeper Ouye turned his head and scolded.

"Lin Daoyou, sit down first, I'll feed this animal first, otherwise it will be very restless!"

"Shopkeeper Ouye, please!"

The lean and dark-faced shopkeeper Ou Ye took out another large bowl of meat from the storage bag on his waist, walked up to Huochan, and put the wooden basin down with a bang.

After Zhang Shiping drank the tea, he stood up and walked around the store. He saw some magical artifacts on the counter, and their auras were very dim. Most of the magic weapons are common types of magic weapons such as knives, guns and sticks.

There are only three first-grade middle-grade magical artifacts on the counter, which are a colorful mirror, a long black whip, and a small apricot-yellow shield. Zhang Shiping didn't see any of the first-grade top-grade magical artifacts. Of course, there are some other items in the store, such as a whole stack of yellow talismans, some of which have been painted with cinnabar spirit patterns.

Zhang Shiping just glanced at it briefly, and didn't observe it too carefully. He didn't care about this level of magic weapon anymore. He still had a few pieces of this kind of magic weapon in his storage bag, but it was useless to him. up.

"Friend Lin, please... please... slow down!"

After a few breaths, after he finished reading it, he turned his head and looked at Huo Toad, who had already eaten less than half of the second pot of meat. The shopkeeper Ouye quickly stood up, rushed over and reached out to stop him.

But when Zhang Shiping walked over, the fire toad seemed to have been casted with a body-holding technique. It was still biting the piece of meat in its mouth, but did not chew it. The piece of meat in the fire toad's mouth fell into the wooden basin again in.

When Zhang Shiping was looking at it, the fire toad actually turned its body over, revealing its red and tender belly, and was still "croaking" softly. If this fire toad had a tail, it would definitely shake at this time. Very happy!

"Ou Yeyan has seen Senior Lin before." Seeing Huo Chan suddenly exposed his belly, he was startled. He had been raising this Huo Toad for decades, and Ou Yeyan had known about it for a long time. Clearly.

The meaning of Huo Toad's obvious begging for mercy now is that he met a monk who could easily kill it. He has been in the shop for so long, and he has met twice.

He also complained about this fire toad in his heart, it was really stupid, it trembled when it sensed a monk with a higher cultivation level than it, if it met a foundation-builder monk, it would simply turn its belly out and remain motionless.

"Oh, how did you find out?" Zhang Shiping stood beside Ouye's shopkeeper. This shopkeeper Ouye had already put out his hand to stop him, and then quickly retracted it. Beads of sweat came out.

"Senior Lin, this is because the fire toad in the small shop can sense the monk's restrained breath in addition to breathing fire, but the fire toad's spiritual sense is only within a radius of one foot. Some, then Huo Chan can't feel it. Just now Senior Lin was far away, Huo Chan didn't feel it at all, and it didn't know until Senior Lin got closer." The shopkeeper Ou Ye looked at Zhang Shiping and introduced it very carefully. I have clearly stated everything I know, especially highlighting the limitations of Huochan's spiritual sense, hoping that after Zhang Shiping listens to it, he will not forcefully snatch it.

"This fire toad is very good. It can even detect me. It's really rare." Zhang Shiping looked at the toad that turned over and exposed its belly, the light in his eyes flashed, but after thinking about it, the light in his eyes narrowed. In fact, when he saw Huo Toad turning his stomach, he knew in his heart that he was exposed, and it was very likely that this demon toad had discovered it.

There are many spirit beasts and strange beasts in the world of cultivating immortals. They look ordinary, but there are many with different supernatural powers, like the spirit-seeking armored beast and this fire toad. Seeing that his identity was exposed, Zhang Shiping was startled at first, and then became quiet, without showing any expression.

"Thank you for your compliment, senior. Did Senior Lin also come here for Qingshi Xiaohui?" Shopkeeper Ou Ye thought for a while, and then thought of Qingshi Xiaohui.

"Qingshi Xiaohui," Zhang Shiping heard the other party say Qingshi Xiaohui, and he asked Ou Ye back, "Is it to talk about Taoism, or to exchange whether there is something?"

"Senior Lin, the Qingshi meeting is a place for seniors to change their needs. It is held in the tallest nine-story stone building in the square city. It will be held once a year on the sixth day of June for seven days." Shopkeeper Ou Ye said. Tell me everything you know.
