On the Avenue

Chapter 183 Young Master, Scholar

Chen Shi did not leave Phoenix Ridge immediately, but stayed with Xiao Dingxiang and others, waiting for dawn.

It was still night, so there was no guarantee that evil spirits would sneak up the mountain. Chen Shi could ensure their safety by staying here.

There were twenty-seven children on the mountain. Chen Shi thought for a while, opened the box in his arms, and gave each of these children a one hundred tael silver note and two resurrection lotuses to each of them.

Because these children often go to the underworld to steal white lotus, they are invaded by Yin Qi and their souls are damaged. Eating the Soul-Reviving Lotus will only return their souls to their previous state. It is impossible to imagine how much improvement there will be. As for the yin energy in his body, Chen Shi offered up the golden elixir and tried to use his own yang energy to help them resolve it.

Doing this will greatly damage your cultivation, but your cultivation is something you gain through practice, and you can just practice it back after it has been damaged.

After he finished doing this, he went to the back mountain again, offered up the rebirth talisman, and sent the ghosts of the children who died in the back mountain to death.

Chen Shi sent these children's ghosts away and was about to get up when he suddenly became dizzy and staggered, and hurriedly held on to a big tree.

His heart was beating fast, as if it was about to jump out of his chest, his temples were also beating fast, his eyes were swollen, he was gasping for air, and beads of sweat were pouring out uncontrollably. Chen Shi stood for a moment before he regained his composure and realized that he had exhausted himself too much and hurt his body.

He did too many things that night. He wiped out the whole Taipingmen with one breath, and worked non-stop to help twenty-seven children resolve their Yin Qi. Then he sent those children who died in vain in the back mountain to die. He didn't have time to rest, and his body couldn't hold on. . He sat down and activated the Sanguang Zhengqi Jue to restore some energy and blood, and then got up and returned to the front mountain.

When we arrived at Qianshan, it was already bright.

Chen Shi took these children down the mountain to a nearby village and town. He first booked a restaurant in the town, gave these children a good meal, and then asked them to wait in the restaurant. He took a wooden cart to Wuling and found Yutian City.

Seeing his pale face, Yutian City was shocked and hurriedly asked why. Chen Shi told the story of how he destroyed the Taipingmen and said: "Master Yu, could you please contact the Hongshan cousins ​​in Gongzhou City and send these children to their respective homes?" Village." "Xiucai, if this happens in the future, call me!" Yu Tiancheng said sadly.

He was about to do it when he woke up and said, "Xiucai, did you do it cleanly?" Chen Shi didn't understand what he meant.

Yutiancheng said: "It means whether the people were killed cleanly, whether the looting was clean, and whether the cleaning was clean? This is the three principles of purity for brothers on the Tao, and it is the only method for us to travel in the world." Chen Shi was in awe of him, and this Grandpa taught me this kind of thing, but he didn't tell me the specific content. Yutiancheng obviously walked on the road often and knew the rules inside.

Seeing his expression, Yu Tiancheng knew that he had not done a good job and said with a smile: "Don't worry about taking care of your body, I will help you clean it up. It seems that behind such sects, there are often the support of aristocratic families. If it is not cleaned up, it will be very difficult." It's easy for someone to come to your door to ask for an explanation. "Chen Shi said: "Isn't it great to have friends from far away? Just kill them and bury them, and that will solve the problem."

Yutiancheng was in awe of his knowledge and said with a smile: "Although this is true, it is easy to hide from open guns and difficult to guard against hidden arrows, so it is better to be careful." He left in a hurry.

Chen Shi's vitality was indeed greatly damaged this time, and his complexion was not very good. After two or three days of training, he still had not returned to his peak condition.

While Chen Shi was eating the Resurrection Lotus, he missed the small coffin in Jinghu Villa. If he could lie in it for a day and a half, he would have recovered by now. In the past three days, he ate the Resurrection Lotus whenever he had free time. He had almost eaten all the Resurrection Lotus in the box, with only two or three flowers left.

The Soul-Reviving Lotus should be a material for refining the elixir. It may be the key to the breakthrough from the Nascent Soul Realm to the Divine Transformation Realm. If the elixir is refined into a elixir, the price will definitely be frighteningly high, even if it is four to five times the original value. Can't live. But Chen Shi didn't know how to make elixirs, and he didn't have any elixir recipes, so he simply ate them to strengthen his soul.

He was depleted of blood and vitality, and was too lazy to move, but he was thinking about the lotus field in the swamp of the underworld.

When he thought of the endless lotus fields, his heart felt hot and hot.

"It's been a long time since I stole melons. I was hiding in the melon field, and the old lady Wu Zhu was holding a hairpin... No, it was me hiding in the lotus field, and that huge ghost was holding a fork!" He couldn't wait to set out immediately to steal white lotus. , but after getting up, I felt dizzy, and Jin Dan was also lazy, so I had to give up.

Yutiancheng returned with several children, and Xiao Dingxiang was also among them, saying: "These few can't find their parents." Chen Shi asked in confusion: "Where are their parents?"

"Can't find it."

Yutiancheng blinked at him and whispered, "They may have died in the demonic transformation." Chen Shi said with pity, "How to arrange them?"

Yutiancheng said: "Is it okay to let them join our Hongshan Hall Talisman Master Association?"

Chen Shi hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "With all due respect, Hongshan Hall's Taoism is too outdated. Teaching them will only delay others." Yu Tiancheng frowned and said, "Then how to arrange them?"

Chen Shi thought for a while and said, "I have quite a lot of connections in the Sanren gathering. Maybe I can help them find a good master."

When Yutiancheng heard the word "connections", he couldn't help frowning, remembering the situation in Gongzhou City, when the demonized "Chen Shi" went on a rampage and planned to eat Tianyang Tongzi and others. He thought to himself: "The connections he mentioned cannot be Are you referring to them?" Sure enough, Chen Shi took Xiao Dingxiang and others to find Tianyang Tongzi and said, "Senior Brother Tianyang, I want to ask you a favor."

Tianyang boy's heart trembled, and he almost slipped out of the bookcase and knelt down. Unconsciously, he remembered Chen Yindu's toughness when he begged for help.

Chen Shi told what happened to Xiao Dingxiang and others, and said: "Senior Brother Tianyang is so talented. It would be a pity if he died without a successor." "If I don't agree, he will beat me to death and let me The skill is lost!”

Tianyang boy thought he understood what he meant. He felt solemn in his heart and said with a serious face: "This is for the joy of helping others, and I have a legacy, why not?" Chen Shi was very happy and asked him to choose a disciple.

Tianyang Boy checked the bones of Xiao Dingxiang, Xiaotian and others. Xiao Dingxiang quickly stood up straight and looked at him expectantly, hoping that he would choose her.

Although the Tianyang boy was afraid of Chen Shi's "obscene power", he still followed the principle of preferring nothing to nothing, and selected Xiaotian, who had the best bones among these children, and said, "I chose him. What's your name?" My name is Xiaotian." Xiaotian sniffed.

When the boy Tianyang heard this, he was filled with joy: "My name is Tianyang, his name is Xiaotian, Xiaotianyang! He should be my disciple!"

Chen Shi took Xiao Dingxiang and others to see the Tsing Yi musician and others, and said this. Although the Tsing Yi musician and others wanted to refuse, they were forced to choose a disciple each due to the pressure of "Chen Shi". Little Dingxiang looked at them expectantly, straightening her chest again and again, expecting them to choose her, but she failed every time.

In the end, she was the only one left.

Chen Shi took her hand and went to see Mrs. Hua Li. Mrs. Hua Li checked Xiao Dingxiang's bones and said apologetically: "Xiao Shi, this child's qualifications are too poor. Even if he studies with me, he won't be able to learn anything. She She may not even be able to obtain a divine fetus," Chen Shi said, "She is very smart and kind..."

Mrs. Hua Li smiled and said: "It's not about being smart and kind. Good people may not be able to practice."

Xiao Dingxiang sadly tugged on Chen Shi's sleeve and said, "Brother Xiao Shi, I can take care of myself by myself, don't find a master for me."

Chen Shi held her hand and was about to leave, but Ding Ding quickly chased after her, called to Chen Shi, and said: "Sir, the lady said that her soul is very strong, and you should give her a lot of soul-like elixirs. The person with the highest level of soul cultivation is Grandma Sha. Why don’t you take her to see Grandma Sha? Maybe Grandma Sha will be happy to have an additional helper.”

Chen Shi's eyes lit up and he quickly thanked him.

Ding Ding pursed her lips and said with a smile: "What else can we say thank you for?" After that, she bumped his shoulder with his shoulder, and then jumped up and down excitedly. Chen Shi watched her go away and took Xiao Dingxiang to look for Granny Sha.

These days, Granny Sha's dragon has been seen nowhere. Fortunately, there is a scapegoat, and Granny Sha is quickly found to explain the matter.

Grandma Sha looked at Little Dingxiang, touched her bones, and said: "This child has been to the underworld many times, and her bones have been eroded by the yin energy. Her bones are not good originally, and if they are eroded by the yin energy, they will be in bad shape." That's even better." The little hope in Xiao Dingxiang's heart suddenly turned into despair.

"However, it is suitable for practicing the magic of my lineage."

Granny Sha praised, "You have strong yin energy and strong soul, so you are born to be the material for the soul refining method! In the eyes of others, you are like a dung ball in the hands of a dung beetle, and you are disgusted by it at a glance, but you are a dung beetle. Follow me, Sooner or later you will stand out and shock those who look down upon you!"

Little Dingxiang was surprised and happy, and quickly kowtowed to Granny Sha. "This girl is sensible!"

Granny Sha beamed with joy, and quickly pulled her up, looked her up and down, and praised, "She is still a beauty. Xiao Shi, do you want a child bride or not?" Chen Shi's face turned red and he hurriedly said: "Grandma, I'm still young!"

"You're not young anymore. Besides, you may not be able to live to adulthood with this kind of torture. Marry a wife early and give your grandpa a great-grandson. No one will feel sorry for you even if you die." Chen Shi ran away.

Grandma Sha yelled from behind: "I'm telling the truth! I don't want this child... now. When he grows up, he might not be able to even afford a wife."

She looked at Xiao Dingxiang again, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and said with a smile: "Other old soul refining mages, when they see a kid like you, their mouths will definitely be happy, and then they will take your soul to make a magic weapon." Xiao Dingxiang Startled.

Granny Sha smiled and said: "But you are my disciple. If anyone dares to take your soul, I will take the souls of his whole family! Don't worry, no one dares to touch you."

Xiao Dingxiang then followed Grandma Sha to practice. It must be said that Mrs. Hua Li's vision was indeed vicious. She practiced the techniques taught by Grandma Sha and got twice the result with half the effort and made rapid progress. However, she often knew nothing about other systems of spells. Little Dingxiang also discovered that Granny Sha often walked very close to a green sheep and a bearded man who did not look like a good person.

The three of them often get together furtively, discussing something. Later, Xiao Dingxiang discovered that they were spying on Chen Shi!

These people got together to exchange information. What did Chen Shi do today? How many times did Chen Shi commit suicide today? Chen Shi came and went before the gate of hell, and so on. "Girl, if we don't have time to monitor Xiao Shi from now on, we'll leave it to you." Granny Sha said solemnly.

Xiao Dingxiang said: "Why are you spying on Brother Xiao Shi?" "I'm afraid that if he dies, he will destroy the world."

During the gathering, Chen Shi was very ill. It was not until the gathering was about to end that he recovered to six or seven points.

Yutiancheng has arranged the Taiping Gate and cleaned up all kinds of corpses. He also took care of Chen Shi's trip to nearby villages and towns to buy ironware. He used the Forgetting Talisman to make the blacksmith shop owner forget about it.

As for the children who were sent home, he also used the Forgetting Talisman to wash away their unpleasant experiences at Taipingmen.

Yutiancheng originally planned to summon the souls from above and below Taipingmen to erase the memories in their souls, but when it summoned souls from above and below Taipingmen, it could not summon a single soul.

"Did the scholar handle it?" He was surprised and didn't think much about it.

On the day the individual gathering ended, several strangers came up to Fenghuang Ridge.

After they arrived at Fenghuang Ridge, they were tired of their travels. They immediately sacrificed soul-calling talismans, but failed to summon souls. They also sacrificed person-finding talismans and corpse-finding talismans.

One of them came to the mountain gate, burned incense and asked about the mythical beast guarding the mountain gate, but the mythical beast was also destroyed by Chen Shi, so he did not receive any response.

Everyone had no choice but to go down the mountain to nearby villages and towns to inquire about it. The residents of nearby villages and towns had no impression of the matter.

These people couldn't get any useful information, so they couldn't help but frown, and they gathered together to discuss: "Young Master sent us here to search for the murderer, and also to find the whereabouts of the box of Soul-Reviving Lotus. Now we can't find out anything, what should we do?" Go back and recover? "As long as you take action, it is impossible to leave no trace, but there are no traces left on the mountain, down the mountain, or even in the underworld. The only solution now is to bite the bullet and go back to explain. "

Everyone's plan has been decided and they are ready to return.

At this time, I saw a tall and burly man walking towards me, wearing a green cloth straight jacket, a red silk belt around his waist, and a green scarf tied on his head.

"A friend comes from afar. Once he comes, he will be at ease."

The tall man smiled and said, "Are these good friends coming from the bathing capital? Why did they rush back in such a hurry?"

The four of them stopped, feeling awe-inspiring in their hearts. The leading man dressed as a master said warily: "May I ask who you are?"

Yutiancheng smiled slightly and said, "On behalf of the scholar, I would like to say hello to your young master!"

He sacrificed his soul, rose up, and rushed between the four of them!

Those four people came under the order of the young master. One was to investigate the murderer who destroyed the Taiping Gate. The other was to catch the real culprit and eradicate the Taiping Gate. Their cultivation strength was of no small importance, so the master sent had the highest cultivation level and was also a god. A great master in this world! The other three are masters of the Nascent Soul Realm, and their strength is not weak!

The four of them joined forces and collided with Yutian City. In the flash of lightning, three of the four fell down, and they were all killed!

The only person left is the master, and the soul is suppressed by Yutian Town.

"I have practiced with the two elders Han Qian for more than ten days, and I have made such great progress! This master's cultivation strength is not weaker than that of the martial arts master, and I can capture him with just a few moves!"

Yutiancheng was surprised and happy, but he couldn't think too much and asked, "Who is your young master? Tell me quickly! Otherwise, I will kill you and turn your bones into ashes!"

The master looked ferocious, and suddenly his soul burst into flames. Yutiancheng was shocked and hurriedly let go, only to see that the master's spirit was instantly burned to ashes, and he actually burned himself to death!

Yu Tiancheng's face was pale, and his heart was beating rapidly.

"He would rather self-immolate his soul and lose his soul than spit out the young master's name...it can't be investigated anymore!"

Yutiancheng calmed down, if he continued to investigate, his life would not be saved!

He found Chen Shi and told the story.

Chen Shi asked in confusion: "Whose property is Taipingmen? Master, what is your background? Far away from Yudu, there is an industry in Henggong Mountain that specializes in producing Soul-Resurrecting Lotus for him. Even masters in the realm of gods have If you want to be dispatched by him, you would rather die than tell his name. I'm afraid this young master has a great background..."

Yutiancheng looked solemn: "No matter what his origins are, he is far beyond the reach of you and me. Scholar, this matter is very relevant and cannot be investigated anymore! If we continue to investigate, without mentioning you and me, I am afraid that even Hongshan Hall will be investigated. People were razed to the ground!”
