The Counterattack of the Villains

Shushan sect.

Li Mu and Yin Ruozhuo stood side by side outside a quiet room, looking up at the spiritual energy surging on the top of the quiet room, with indifferent smiles on their faces.

After Li Mu left the customs, he lived a peaceful life in Diancang Mountain for a period of time.

Every day I take Qing'er to play around, spend time with my wife Nuyuan, drink and chat with Lin Yeping and Zixuan, and don't care about anything serious.

Nowadays, the affairs of the Diancang Sect have long been handed over to Yun Ting and Jiang Waner, with Yun Ting in charge of the Wuzong and Jiang Waner in charge of the sect.

Lin Yeping has long been idle and spends most of his time living in Dali City with Zixuan.

Three months later, Li Mujing felt very moved, so she took Nv Yuan away from the mountain again.

He hadn't seen his master and his five uncles for more than ten years, and he didn't know what their situation was like, so he came to the Shushan sect as his first stop.

"Elder brother, how are you?"

Li Mu smiled and said: "Master and the five uncles, the day of enlightenment and immortality is right in front of us. If nothing happens, the results will be achieved within half a year."

Yin Ruozhuo nodded and sighed: "Master and the others plan to ascend to the immortal world after they attain enlightenment. I wonder if there will be a chance to see them again."

Li Mu patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "There must be some. With your qualifications and understanding, it is only a matter of time before you become enlightened."

Yin Ruozhuo smiled. Sometimes he didn't know where his senior brother had such confidence in him.

"What about you? It's been decades since you became an immortal. Do you really not plan to ascend?"

Li Mu turned his head away and said: "What's the difference between the immortal world and the human world? It's just that the spiritual energy is richer and the scenery is better."

"I live a good life in the human world. There are things I love here, but not in the fairy world. So why should I go to the fairy world?"

The two chatted while chatting, while turning around and walking slowly outside.

Once outside, a sound of scolding suddenly came from afar.

The two turned around and saw a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old striding towards them with his ears twisted by an old man with white beard and hair wearing the robe of an elder from Shushan.

The young man also held a wine gourd in his hand.

"You brat, you didn't learn well at a young age, and you spend all your time thinking about stealing wine. I think you just need to be dealt with."

"Oh...brother, please be gentle, your ears are about to fall off!"

This little boy actually called the old man senior brother, and Li Mu suddenly became interested.

Yin Ruozhuo frowned and took the initiative to greet him.

The old man led the young man and walked up to the two of them. Then he let go of the hand that was twisting the young man's ears and said politely to Li Mu: "I've met senior brother."

Li Mu waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite, Junior Brother Wang, what happened?"

The old man surnamed Wang is from the generation of Li Mu and Yin Ruozhuo. He is over seventy years old and is the elder in charge of logistics and internal affairs of the Shushan sect.

Because his qualifications and understanding are relatively ordinary, his cultivation is not high, and he looks very old.

The young man rubbed his ears and looked nonchalant, showing no signs of guilt after making a mistake.

The old man said angrily to Yin Ruozhuo: "Junior Brother Head, you really need to take good care of this kid."

"These days, the disciple in charge of the wine cellar reported that the wine in the wine cellar has been inexplicably less recently, and there is less in each jar."

"I took it seriously and asked Chang Yin, my nephew, to set up a small formation for me in the wine cellar, and in the end I caught this kid."

After hearing what Elder Wang said, Yin Ruozhuo's face darkened, and he glared at the young man and said, "Junior brother, did you steal all that wine?"

The young man grinned and said: "Brother, I am a lay disciple, so I cannot help but drink and eat meat."

Yin Ruozhuo scolded: "How old are you, and you are already addicted to alcohol? Do you want to become a loser?"

"Uncle Heyang values ​​your qualifications and takes you under his wing in the hope that you can inherit the Shushan Taoist tradition. Are you worthy of him?"

Elder Wang added another blow and said: "More than that, I heard from the disciples that this kid, relying on his seniority, behaves wildly and completely ignores our rules and regulations in Shushan, and has led all the lay disciples astray."

The young man curled his lips and said, "Being led astray by others proves that their character is not good at all. Can you blame me?"

Hearing what he said, Elder Wang was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. He pointed at him and said to Yin Ruozhuo: "Look, look, he has this attitude in front of you, the head junior brother. Isn't it even more shocking behind his back?"

?”

Yin Ruozhuo was also very angry at the young man's attitude, and shouted angrily: "Mo Yixi, don't think that no one can control you just because Uncle Heyang is in seclusion."

"Uncle Master made me fully responsible for everything before you went into seclusion. Now, if you go back and copy the Tao Te Ching a hundred times for me, if you miss one copy, I will ground you for a month."

Seeing the head brother getting angry, the future Jiujianxian, and now Mo Yixi, finally withered.

He said weakly: "Brother, if you read it a hundred times, that's more than half a million words. I will die. At worst, I just don't drink. Can you copy less?"

Yin Ruozhuo snorted coldly: "If you keep talking nonsense two hundred times, if you don't want to copy it, give me ten years of seclusion. It's your choice!"

Mo Yixi's face fell, and he said sadly: "Then I'll just copy the scriptures! I'll take my leave."

"Wait a minute." Yin Ruozhuo called to Mo Yixi, pointed to Li Mu beside him, and said: "This is our senior brother Jiang Ming. I still don't want to show my respect to senior brother."

Mo Yixi's eyes lit up and she looked at Li Mudao in surprise: "Are you the founder of the Diancang Sect in Nanshu Mountain, our senior brother?"

Li Mu smiled and nodded: "I am, my junior fellow apprentice!"

Mo Yixi quickly clasped his fists to the ground and said, "Little brother Mo Yixi, pay homage to senior brother."

After saying that, he stood up quickly and asked Li Mu with burning eyes: "Elder brother, I have admired Nanshu Mountain for a long time. I wonder if it is possible..."

Li Mu didn't wait for him to finish, and interrupted with a smile: "No."

The smile on Mo Yixi's face froze, and then collapsed, while Yin Ruozuo on the side showed a teasing look.

The brat wants to escape from his discipline and run out to have fun, but you may have made the wrong decision.

Seeing Mo Yixi's face full of disappointment, Li Mu reached out and rubbed the top of his head, saying: "You are still young and have an unstable mind. Going to my place will only delay your future."

"Whenever you succeed in practice and realize your own path, Nanshu Mountain welcomes you as a guest at any time."

"I don't have anything else. I have a lot of fine wine, and I even have fine wine and jade liquid that I got from the Emperor of the God Realm. Do you want to drink it?"

Mo Yixi's eyes lit up, he swallowed subconsciously, and said excitedly: "Senior Brother, is everything you said true?"

Li Mu smiled and said: "It's absolutely true. As long as you practice well, I will keep these jars of nectar and jade liquid for you, waiting for you to drink in the future."

Mo Yixi stretched out his palm and said, "Then let us gentlemen say something."

Li Mu hilariously stretched out his hand to give him a high-five and said, "Hurry up and give him a whip."

After high-fiving Li Mu as an oath, Mo Yixi immediately resigned and left to copy scriptures. Elder Wang also excused himself and went to his residence.

Looking at Mo Yixi leaving happily, Li Mu smiled at Yin Ruozhuo and said, "This little junior brother is a bit interesting."

"Junior brother, you don't need to suppress his true nature too much. A person who can maintain his original intention will be more likely to realize the truth."

Yin Ruozhuo said helplessly: "Am I not going to care about him and let him get drunk?"

Li Mu asked back: "Why not? There is a wine god in the divine world, and a wine god in the immortal world. As long as you can guide them correctly, even drinking can make you an immortal."

This is not an innocent mistake. The Drunken Immortal Moon-Watching Step created by Jiujianxian is no worse than Shushanxian Fengyun's physical skills.

There is also the Dionysus Curse. The power of this move far exceeds that of the most explosive sword god in Shushan.

And these unique skills were all created after Mo Yixi drank.

"This..." Yin Ruozhuo was a little hesitant. Drinking can lead to enlightenment, but he didn't think it was reliable.

"Junior brother, I fell in love with a woman and realized that only by reaching the extreme of love can one reach the Tao, and finally enter the Tao through love. Why can't he drink and carve out a Tao?"

"Believe in my judgment. In the future, you only need to teach him to follow the right path and do good deeds. There is no need to restrict him too much in terms of rules and regulations."

"If he wants to drink, you might as well let him drink, but the prerequisite is that it will not affect his practice. He will give you a surprise."

After hearing what Li Mu said, Yin Ruozhuo felt relieved. He smiled and said, "I don't believe he will give me a surprise, but I believe you will give me a surprise."

"Hahaha……"

…

He stayed in the Shushan sect for a while and preached to Yin Ruozhuo on a daily basis.

Li Mu, consciously or unconsciously, guided him to realize that love is boundless and goodness is like water.

This was the Tao he understood in the original plot, and it was precisely because of Jiang Ming that he understood it.

What Li Mu is doing now is also to complete this cause and effect.

The so-called supreme good is like water, which means that the highest good is like water, benefiting all things without competing for fame and wealth.

Shushan Sect is the strongest cultivation force in the human world, and the leader has such a character, which can be said to be a blessing to the people.

A month later, Li Mu said goodbye to Yin Ruozhuo and went to Yuzhou with Nuyuan, intending to meet Jingtian.

And during this month, he prepared a gift, of course not for Jingtian, but for his son Jing Xiaolou.

When Jingtian and Tang Xue got married, Li Mu had already entered seclusion. It was Nuyuan and Jiang Waner who went to congratulate Li Mu on behalf of Li Mu.

So Nuyuan and Jingtian Tangxue are already very familiar with each other.

In the past ten years, Xu Maoshan has also gotten married to the daughter of a bun shop owner in Yuzhou City.

Needless to say, this fate must have started with steamed buns.

After he gave birth to two sons and a daughter within a few years, his father-in-law and mother-in-law retired and lived a happy life with their grandchildren. The bun shop was inherited by Xu Maoshan and his wife.

The pawn shop business is a business that does not open for three years and lasts for three years after opening. It is impossible for business to be booming, so Yong'an Dang remains as quiet as ever.

The Sedum in this world is different from the stress-free Sedum in the original plot. Both Chonglou and Li Muke are staring at him, pointing out that he can grow into their opponent!

So in the past ten years, while he lived peacefully, he also did not delay practicing martial arts.

As his skills gradually deepened, the speed of developing Feipeng's magical power became faster and faster.

Since he hasn't done anything for a long time and has no reference object, he doesn't even know how strong he is now.

Not only has he not slackened off in these years, but Tang Xuejian, who had gained Xiyao's full divine power, was also trying his best to absorb the divine power crystal.

Xiyao's magical power is full of vitality, so her greatest strength lies in curing diseases and injuries.

Thanks to this, when Li Lan's youngest son Li Shou was seriously ill, Tang Xuejian rescued him. Now he is five years old, healthy and free from illness and disaster.

When Li Mu and Nuyuan came to Yong'an, Jingtian and Tang Xuejian were teaching their son Jing Xiaolou to practice martial arts in the backyard.

The boy had a face full of reluctance. He was holding a small wooden sword and was stabbing or whittling it loosely. He let out a feeble "Hey ha" sound in his mouth.

Seeing this, Jingtian said angrily: "You brat, if you continue to be so perfunctory, believe it or not, I will really send you to Dian Cangshan and imprison you for ten or eight years."

Jing Xiaolou was obviously very afraid of the words "Dian Cang Mountain", so he finally cheered up and became a little more serious.

Jingtian was quite helpless when he saw this. This boy was no different from his previous self. In Li Mu's words, he was just a salted fish.

Could it be said that like father, like son?

"Brother Jing, you've gone too far. How have you shaped Diancang Mountain in Xiaolou's mind? To make him so afraid."

Just after Jingtian finished scolding Jingxiaolou, these ridiculous words suddenly came from the sky.

The family of three looked up and saw Li Mu and Nuyuan slowly descending from the sky.

The couple both had smiles on their faces, and when they landed, they immediately greeted them.

"You are now out of seclusion, how about it? Are you sure you can beat Hong Mao now?"

Li Mu smiled and said: "Not to mention winning, at least I won't lose. I went into seclusion as soon as I came back and even missed your wedding. I was embarrassed."

Jingtian punched him in the chest and said, "Okay, I already know what your situation was like back then. My brother, can I still understand you?"

"Besides, isn't my sister-in-law here? Don't you think my sister-in-law can't represent you?"

Li Mu smiled, then looked at Jing Xiaolou, and sighed: "I didn't expect that even Xiaolou had grown so big since the last time we said goodbye. Time flies so fast!"

Tang Xuejian waved to Jing Xiaolou and said: "Son, come here quickly. This is your father's good brother, Uncle Li, the leader of the Dian Cang Sect. This is Aunt Li. Say hello to uncle and aunt."

Although Jing Xiaolou is only nine years old and has been naughty since he was a child, he still has a good tutor.

Holding the wooden sword upside down, he walked up to Li Mu and Nuyuan, clasped his fists and bowed, "My nephew pays homage to Uncle Li and Aunt Li."

Li Mu smiled and nodded, saying: "Good boy, it's our first time meeting you. Uncle, I don't have much, so I haven't prepared any gifts for you."

"Looking at you, you don't seem to be interested in learning martial arts, but you must have the ability to protect yourself in the future. I have a gadget here that is very suitable for you."

As he spoke, he turned over his hand, and a delicate purple-gold short staff appeared out of thin air in his palm.

Ever since Li Mu broke through the Golden Immortal, he had opened up a small space in his body specifically for storage.

Since this space is within his body, attached to his soul, and belongs to his own ability, rather than an external object, it can be taken away.

After many years of reincarnation experience, he finally had a portable storage space. From then on, he could carry anything he got in the reincarnation world with him.

As soon as Jing Xiaolou saw the short staff in Li Mu's hand, he liked it very much, but he did not dare to take it directly. Instead, he glanced at his parents.

The appearance of this short wand is made by Li Mu imitating the magic wand in the movie "Harry Potter", which is most suitable for children's aesthetics.

The short staff is about a foot long and is made of purple-gold color. The material is very strange. It is not copper, iron, steel, or wood. It looks like some kind of crystal.

The handle is a few inches thick, and is covered with mysterious runes. The stick extends forward and gradually becomes thinner, until the top of the stick is only as thick as a little finger.

The entire short staff is filled with purple-gold light, which not only looks cool, but is also filled with majestic aura.

Seeing that Jing Xiaolou didn't dare to reach out to take it, Tang Xuejian took the initiative and said, "Silly son, Uncle Li is not an outsider. You can just take what he gives."

Jing Xiaolou then threw away the wooden sword in his hand, said respectfully "Thank you, uncle", then took the short staff and played with it fondly.

Jingtian asked curiously: "Old Li, is this a magic weapon?"

Li Mu nodded and said: "Yes, I call it the Lihuo Staff. The staff has its own spirit gathering formation, which can absorb the fire spirit and store it in it."

"As long as you master the spell, even a mortal without any spiritual power in your body can emit Nanming Lihuo, which is extremely powerful and cannot be resisted by ordinary monsters."

"However, after the spiritual energy is exhausted, it will take some time to recover. If it is used by someone with spiritual power, they can naturally use it with their own spiritual power."

After introducing the efficacy of the Lihuo Staff, Li Muzhen said to Jing Xiaolou: "Xiaolou, you have to remember that the Lihuo Staff is extremely powerful and must not be used carelessly to avoid irreversible consequences."

"In addition, you must not reveal the spell to others, do you understand?"

Seeing Li Mu's solemn words, Jing Xiaolou was excited, but he didn't dare to take it lightly, and he quickly looked serious.

Then Li Mu suggested that everyone go out of the city to try out the magic staff. Naturally, Jing Tian had no objection and immediately summoned the magic sword. Yu Jian took Tang Xuejian and Jing Xiaolou and followed Li Mu and his wife to the wilderness outside the city.

Li Mu taught the spell to Jing Xiaolou, but did not avoid Jingtian and Tang Xuejian.

There are three kinds of spells, one can launch Nanmingli fire bombs to bombard the target, one can spray Nanmingli fire from the stick head, and one can make Nanmingli fire rise wherever the stick head points.

In addition to the main mantra, there are also opening and closing mantras, which are the functions of starting and stopping.

The spell taught by Li Mu had a very strange tone and was in a language they had never heard before.

This is the mantra of the great truth that Li Mu understood when he was studying the rules.

The Mantra of the Dao is the language of the Dao. If all creatures want to communicate with the Dao, they must master the Mantra of the Dao, and to master the Mantra of the Dao, they must understand the laws.

Corresponding to the Dao mantra, there are also Dao texts, which are words belonging to the Dao.

Only practitioners who understand the laws can understand the true words of the Tao and understand the text.

The runes on the Lihuo staff are actually Taoist scriptures, and the incantation is also the mantra of Taoism.

There is no need for Jing Xiaolou and others to understand its meaning, as long as they can pronounce it accurately.

After Jing Xiaolou writes down the three mantras, it's trial time.

Li Mu pointed to a hill about twenty feet high and said, "Xiaolou, just use that hill to try the first spell!"

"Okay." Jing Xiaolou raised his hand eagerly, faced the hill, and shouted: "Namofu Kuboda, Jiusiye."

If this mantra is translated into Mandarin, it would be "Nan Ming Li Huo Dan, kill evil."

As soon as Jing Xiaolou finished speaking, the tip of his staff made a "whoosh" sound and shot out a Nanmingli fire bomb with a long tail flame.

"boom"

The fire bomb flashed away, and in just the blink of an eye, it hit the small hill.

With a loud bang, purple-gold flames exploded, soil flew in all directions, and the hill disappeared in an instant, leaving instead a large crater with a radius of more than two feet on the ground.

Jingtian and Tang Xuejian did not react much. Although the power of this attack was amazing, it could only frighten mortals and ordinary monks.

It is roughly equivalent to the destructive power of an elite disciple of the Diancang Sect emitting the Nanmingli Fire Bomb.

Jingtian had fought against Chonglou before, and he could destroy floating mountains dozens of feet in size with just a single move. Naturally, he didn't take this power seriously.

Tang Xuejian had also seen such destructive power with his own eyes, so he was not surprised either.

However, this magic weapon is for Jing Xiaolou's self-defense, and its power is neither too big nor too small, just right. It can be said to be more than enough to protect itself in the human world.

Only Jing Xiaolou was shocked when he saw such power, and then became excited again.

"It's so awesome. With this thing, what else can I do to practice martial arts?"

Upon hearing this, Jingtian's eyebrows immediately stood up and he stared at him and said, "What did you say?"

Jing Xiaolou winced and said weakly: "Dad, I really have no interest in martial arts. Why do you insist on forcing me to practice martial arts?"

Li Mu raised his hand to stop Jingtian's scolding and said: "Brother Jing, there are some things that cannot be forced. Xiaolou is not interested in martial arts, so that's okay. Isn't he just learning magic?"

Jingtian's eyes lit up and he immediately suppressed his anger and did not speak for the time being.

Li Mu smiled at Jing Xiaolou and said, "Xiaolou, if you don't like to practice martial arts, my uncle will make the decision for you. You don't have to learn martial arts in the future."

"However, it's okay not to learn martial arts, but you can't learn martial arts without skills. No matter what, you have to master a skill."

Jing Xiaolou said sadly: "It's good to learn anything, as long as you don't practice martial arts."

Li Mu said seductively: "Well, if you don't want to learn martial arts, you can learn magic from me in the future!"

"You don't need to wield a sword to learn magic. You can just move your hands and feet and get the job done while sitting down."

"When you're facing an enemy, you don't have to rush up and fight with guns and swords. You can just throw fireballs and lightning from a long distance away. You must be interested in this, right?"

Jing Xiaolou was really excited and said repeatedly: "This is good, this is good, I will learn this."

Li Mu smiled and raised his eyebrows at Jingtian, and Jingtian also blinked at him with a smile on his face and nodded repeatedly.

Tang Xuejian and Nuyuan looked at each other and smiled. This guy had a way. In fact, whether it was martial arts or spells, as long as Jing Xiaolou was willing to learn.

In fact, it doesn't matter what they practice, it's just a different way of fighting. The main thing is that they hope Jing Xiaolou has the power to protect themselves.

As long as they can achieve this goal, the rest really doesn't matter to them.
