On the Avenue

Chen Shi walked around Saint Xuan and came behind her, picked up the clothes from the chair, put them on one by one, and said, "Xuanxuan, why are you here?"

Saint Xuan turned around, watched him put on his clothes, and said with a smile: "It's been half a year since we said goodbye to each other in Da Nanhu. You and I can be considered old friends, so why can't I come visit you if you have nothing to do? What were you practicing just now?"

Chen Shi put on his belt and said: "I had a fight with my father. If I couldn't beat him, I would practice more. I couldn't practice at home. The only place I could go to was Guangjiku, so I practiced in Guangjiku. . What I just used was the body refining method in the Small Tribulation Luck Jue.

This time, he studied the various body-refining techniques in the True King's Tomb and found out the fighting methods among them. After thoroughly understanding them, he tried them one by one here.

Saint Xuan lost her voice and said: "The secret of saving fortune in small tribulations? That is an undisclosed secret in the "Yi'an Hall Collection" of the Li family! It is a method that can only be practiced by the lineage of the sect leader of the Li family! How did you learn it?"

Chen Shi said in surprise: "The Li family also has this technique?"

Saint Xuan nodded repeatedly and said: "The Li family will never spread this skill to outsiders. Even if it is accidentally spread, they will try their best to take it back! Do you know how to take it back?"

She looked solemn: "The practitioner must be crushed to ashes, his body and spirit will be destroyed, and he will be beaten until his soul is gone! If someone takes a look at this technique, not only the eyes, but also the brain and heart must be gouged out, so as not to leak it!"

Chen Shi was extremely surprised: "Is it so serious?"

Saint Xuan's face became more serious, as if she had committed a major crime, and said: "Where did you steal it from? Just repent!" Chen Shi smiled and said: "My little luck-saving formula did not come from the Li family. But it’s a family tradition.”

Saint Xuan was furious: "Is it passed down in your family? You are still stubborn! When you were beaten to death by the ancestor of the Li family, let's see if you are still stubborn!"

Chen Shi smiled and said: "It is really passed down from my family. The exercises in the "Ten Books of Cultivation" in my family can be practiced to the ascension level. In addition to this exercise, there are nine similar ones." Saint Xuan's heart suddenly suddenly , Chichi said: "The Li family's "Small Tribulation Luck Jue" seems to only be able to be practiced to the Mahayana realm..."

Chen Shi said happily: "That's okay! My family's small tribulation saving tactics must have nothing to do with his family's small tribulation saving tactics. Saint Xuan suddenly became worried for him.

The untold secrets of the Li family's lineage can only be cultivated to the Mahayana realm, but Chen Shi can be cultivated to the Ascension realm. If the Li family knew this, how could they tolerate him? "The body refining in the Small Tribulation Luck Jue is actually not very good. It can only be regarded as second-rate. It is not as good as the Nine Heavens Tempering in the Xiaolang Emperor Zhang Gong that I practice."

Chen Shi said, "I practice this technique just because I think rocks from other mountains can attack jade. Since this technique will cause trouble, then just don't practice it in front of others." "Second-rate?"

Saint Xuan was shocked. Could the body-refining method of the Small Tribulation Luck Jue be considered only second-rate?

Little did she know that before she came, Chen Shi had also practiced the Golden Body of the Peacock Ming King in the Precious Moonlight Peacock Ming King Mantra, the Supreme Vajra Body in the Great Teaching King Sutra, and the Ten Methods of Mahaparamita in the Solemn Bodhi Heart Sutra to achieve a golden body. .

And these three techniques are all the top golden body techniques in the Bodhi Dojo! In Chen Shi's mind, these three golden body techniques can still only be regarded as second-rate.

Saint Xuan suppressed the shock in her heart and said: "Chen Shi, you killed the young master's subordinate Shen Hongniang. This has offended the young master." Chen Shi shook his head and said: "No."

Saint Xuan said: "Shen Matchmaker is a fat woman who habitually sits in a sedan chair. She arranged for people from the matchmaker association to buy many pregnant women, cattle and sheep to ambush you on the road."

Chen Shi suddenly realized and said with a smile: "It turned out to be them. Yes, I killed them. Are you sent by the government?"

Saint Xuan shook her head and said: "No. I'm here to tell you that this time, the young master is bound to win the top prize. Since you killed Shen Hongniang, you are in the wrong and don't compete with the young master for the top prize."

Chen Shi wondered: "Why can't you compete with him for the top prize if you kill Shen Hongniang?" Saint Xuan stared at him and said, "You don't agree?" "

Chen Shi shook his head and said, "I disagree."

Saint Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "If you don't agree, I can't make you change your mind, so I have to go back and submit the work. I'm leaving!" She turned around to leave, but Chen Shi stopped her and said, "I If you don’t agree, why don’t you try to force me?”

Saint Xuan smiled and said, "How can I force you?"

Chen Shi suggested: "Break my legs, severely injure my Nascent Soul, poison me, or use some other means to make me unable to compete with you."

Saint Xuan looked into his eyes. His eyes were flashing with excitement and eagerness. She seemed to want to find someone to fight. She suddenly felt a dull pain in her lower abdomen and the back of her head. She quickly said: "I am a Buddhist who values ​​fate. Since you If you don't agree, how can I force you? I'm leaving!

She turned around and left, and behind her came Chen Shi's regretful sigh.

Saint Xuanxuan stopped, and when Chen Shi saw her stop, he couldn't help but look expectant, and said with a smile: "Xuanxuan changed her mind? I can let you prepare first, and then compete again. Didn't you say last time that I didn't Give you a chance to make a move? I’ll give you a chance this time!”

He had been taught a lesson by Chen Tang several times in the past few days. Each time, the move was cut off by Chen Tang before its power could be exerted. He deeply understood the pain that Saint Xuan felt when she met him. Saint Xuan turned around and said loudly: "Almsgiver Chen, I will donate to you with my body. Can you not compete for the top prize?"

They were more than ten feet apart, and the sound reached Chen Shi's ears, and Chen Shi couldn't help but said loudly: "What is physical charity?

Saint Xuan said loudly: "I promise you with my body!"

Chen Shi said loudly: "I don't agree! I still want to fight for the top prize! I want to fight for the country scholars! And I have no shortage of wives! I have saved a lot of money, and I can marry many wives when I return to my hometown! Xuan Xuan, thank you!”

Saint Xuan said loudly: "I know! If someone invites you to go to Xiaojinhua Temple, don't go!" Chen Shi said loudly: "Okay! I won't go!"

Saint Xuan said loudly: "I'm going back, you can continue practicing!" She waved her hand, and Chen Shi also waved his hand.

Saint Xuan left Guangjiku with a smile on her chubby face.

Walking on the post road outside Guangjiku, the wind blew, and the dandelions on the roadside were flying in the wind, spinning and flying upwards. She looked up at the flying dandelions, tears streaming down her face like broken threads.

At this moment, she knew what it felt like to be emotional. Unfortunately, it has been rejected.

She doesn't want to stay in Xijing anymore, she wants to go back to Bodhi Dojo.

She wanted to go back and tell Master Miaoyin that she already understood what emotion felt like, and also understood why cutting off this relationship would improve the cultivation of Buddhism. It's just Master, the other party is not emotional, only you are emotional, what should you do?

Please teach me, Master, how to kill it?

Chen Shi took off his clothes and continued to practice. He continued to try various unique body-refining techniques of the True King's Tomb to temper his body.

To him, Saint Xuan's confession was just a noise that interfered with his practice, and was quickly forgotten by him. His mind was pure and there was no more interference. ——Of course, he didn’t know it was a confession.

There are many types of secret skills in the Tomb of the True King, and each body-refining method has its own merits. It does not mean that low-level exercises have no merit. And Emperor Xiaolang's Zhang Gong is not perfect, and it also has shortcomings.

Chen Shi's practice this time is to temper all aspects of himself to the extreme, so that his body can reach the level of Tao body mentioned in Xiaolang Emperor Zhang Gong. With this Tao body, he can break Chen Tang's opportunity to predict the enemy. Drive him out of the main hall!

In the afternoon, the cry of the black pot came, and he stopped and returned to his original state.

On the back of his head, the six layers of needs were withdrawn one by one and entered the body. The muscles and fascia of the whole body were beating continuously, and the divine light shone all over the body. The hair and skin of the body were like beautiful jade. After a while, this strange phenomenon slowly disappeared and returned to normal.

This is to draw fire and return to the origin.

Even if you are practicing immortal techniques such as Xiaolang Emperor Zhang Gong, this step cannot be omitted.

Chen Shi put on his clothes, went to the well in Guangjiku to get a bucket of water, washed his face, boarded the wooden cart and drove to Xijing. It was still dark, and the wind blew some dandelions into the sky.

Chen Shi looked at these flying dandelions and let his mind fly with them: "Try again tonight. Even if you can't beat Chen Tang out, you can still have a good sleep."

"Brother, brother, can you give me a ride?" A young Taoist stood on the side of the road, waving to him with a smile on his face. Chen Shi stopped the car and said, "It turns out to be Yu Lingzi. Where does the Taoist plan to go?"

The young Taoist asked in surprise: "Brother, do you recognize me?"

Chen Shi smiled and said: "When you entered the city with the young master, you sat on the lotus platform of the sika deer, and I watched from below. There was a passerby beside me who called out the Taoist's name." Yu Lingzi smiled and said: "It turns out that So. I plan to go to Xijing City. Is it possible? "

Chen Shi said happily: "By the way, Master Taoist, please get in the car."

The wooden cart was quite high and had to be climbed up. Chen Shi stretched out his hand and Yu Lingzi took his hand. The two of them exerted their strength. Yu Lingzi was pulled into the cart, rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Brother Chen is strong." So big.”

Chen Shi looked at his hands that were turned white from being squeezed, and said with a smile, "Taoist is quite energetic."

Black Pot jumped off the wooden car obediently and ran in front of the car. He assessed the situation and felt that it would be worse if he stayed in the car, so he got off the car early. Yu Lingzi sat cross-legged opposite Chen Shi and looked at him.

Chen Shi responded with a smile.

The wooden cart drove slowly and gradually accelerated.

Yu Lingzi smiled and said, "Does Brother Chen know about our Taihua Qing Palace?"

Chen Shi said: "I have heard that it is said to be the holy land of Taoism, but I don't know much about it."

Yu Lingzi said: "Back then, the eunuch Sanbao led the Ming Dynasty treasure ship fleet and sailed into the sea of ​​darkness. I, Taihua Qinggong, were already on board at that time, with a total of eighteen Taoist priests. The eighteen Taoists from Taihua Qinggong followed Sanbao eunuch login Xiniu Xinzhou, seeing evil spirits everywhere and demon kings everywhere, invited the eighteen Taoists to take out the memorial tablets of the ancestors, set up the Three Purities Taoism, and invited the ancestors to come and fight side by side with the Ming Dynasty soldiers. Three years later, only the eighteen Taoists were left. Three people.”

He talked about the history of Taihua Qinggong and said: "Three Taoists, covered in blood, entered the hinterland of Xiniu Xinzhou where the evil spirit was the strongest, wiped out the demons, erected the founder's tablet on an unknown barren mountain, and guarded the barren mountain for forty years. Nine days. In the Nine Heavens, countless evil spirits came to the mountain to kill them, but they were still able to defend it. Later, Emperor Chengzu awarded the mountain the name of West Taihua Mountain, and named it Taoist Taihua Qinggong. 's holy place."

Chen Shi's blood boiled when he heard this, and he wished he could go back to the past and see the scene of eighteen Taoists defeating the demons.

Yu Lingzi said: "Taihua also has an origin. Taihua Mountain is also called Huashan. It was originally the West Mountain among the five mountains in the Huaxia Continent. The Taoist Sect built the Qinggong on Taihua Mountain. Therefore, our Taihua Qinggong is a branch of the Huaxia Taoist Sect. Qinggong Taoist priests throughout the ages have never dared to forget their roots.”

Chen Shi praised: "The Taihua lineage has been passed down from generation to generation, which is admirable."

Yu Lingzi said: "Taihua Qinggong knows very well that demons and evil spirits are always ready to come back, so we Taoists practice day and night and are always ready to subjugate demons and defend the Tao. I, Taihua Qinggong, have the best ability to subjugate demons in Xiniu Xinzhou. , below I heard that there is a demon at work in Brother Chen's consciousness, and it broke out in Gongzhou, endangering the people of Gongzhou. If Brother Chen is willing to follow me to Taihua Qinggong, I, Taihua Qinggong, will do our best to remove it for you. All the demons in my body!”

Chen Shi asked: "How many days does it take to get to Taihua Qing Palace?" "It doesn't take long. It can be reached in fourteen or five days."

Chen Shi smiled and said: "In that case, after the examination and the palace examination are over, I will go to Taihua Qing Palace with the Taoist priest."

Yu Lingzi shook his head and sighed: "There will be no such opportunity after the palace examination. Brother Chen, you only have one chance, today." Chen Shi shook his head and said, "Then, I have no choice but to give up this opportunity."

Yu Lingzi frowned slightly and said patiently: "There are not many people in this world who can help you get rid of the demons in your body, not even the Thirteenth Family. Even I, Taihua Qinggong, have to respectfully request the ancestor's memorial tablet before I can have the Thirteenth Family." This opportunity is extremely rare to help you conquer the devil!”

Chen Shi was extremely sincere and said: "Taoist, I have something to puzzle over. Since Taihua Qing Palace is a Taoist holy land and is quiet and inactive, why do you have to be such a lobbyist for the young master?"

When Yu Lingzi heard this, he immediately knew that he had guessed his intention. He immediately did not hide it and said seriously: "Brother Chen, it's not that I want to be this lobbyist for the young master, but that the world needs the young master today! I think you have seen it too. , the current government has long-standing shortcomings, and the countryside The wildness is unbalanced, evil spirits are rampant, the court is helpless, and the people are poor and weak! I feel that the fortune of Xiniu Xinzhou is getting worse day by day! Xiniu Xinzhou needs a true king, and it is time to change the situation! The sky changes..."

When he said this, his face changed slightly, and with a few clicks of his fingers, the Heavenly Listeners in the wilderness turned into wood one after another, branches sprouted from their heads, and soon they turned into towering trees.

Yu Lingzi's eyes flashed: "What is a change in the sky? It means that the sky is changing! It is the true god outside the sky that is changing! Now is our best time to take advantage of the change in the sky to elect a true king, get rid of the long-standing evils, and get rid of the shackles. Restore the prosperity of the true king's era! This man..."

Chen Shi cut off his words and said calmly: "Why can't this person be me?" Yu Lingzi's eyes turned cold: "Your surname is not Zhu."

He paused and said: "If your surname is not Zhu, you will not be able to win over people's hearts. There will be Thirteen Road rebels against you, and there will be all kinds of careerists who deceive people's hearts and set themselves up as kings, and the world will be in chaos." !”

He was impassioned and said in a deep voice: "For the sake of the livelihood of all people in the world, please give up the fight for the number one scholar, Brother Chen!"

Chen Shi tapped his fingers on the side of the wooden cart, click, click, one after another, neither fast nor slow, like tapping on the heart, making a sound together with the heartbeat. "Yu Lingzi, why do you have no confidence in the young master and think that he can't defeat me and win the top prize?"

His fingers paused and he looked directly into Yu Lingzi's eyes, "Since he is the destined person, why is he afraid of me?"

Chen Shi leaned back: "If you can't defeat me, what qualifications do you have to lead the world and change your fate against the will of heaven?" Yu Lingzi's face darkened: "You have already killed Shen Hongniang, it's time to give in."

Chen Shi shook his head: "Shen Hongniang, I want to kill. Young Master, I want to kill too. There is no room for maneuver. Taoist, please come back."
