Daoist Abandoned Wisdom

Although Tao Xinian was drunk, he was still shocked. He thought Yuan Yao would find out.But Yuan Yao didn't open his eyes, just grabbed his hand and fell asleep again.

Tao Xinian smiled brightly, like a cat that has successfully stolen fish, and is content.He also felt sleepy, so he pushed Yuan Yao in and fell asleep beside him.

The rain stopped in the middle of the night, but it was still a little chilly.Tao Xinian hugged something warm and slept all night. Although he didn't cover himself with a quilt, he didn't feel cold.At dawn, he rubbed against the "thing", felt very comfortable, and continued to sleep.But at this moment, the "thing" in his arms moved.Tao Xinian felt something was wrong, opened his eyes in a daze, and met a pair of light brown pupils.

The familiar subtle scene reappeared, Tao Xinian let go of his hand, and apologized: "I'm sorry, my sleeping posture is too bad."

Yuan Yao stared at him with light brown eyes for a while, but didn't say a word, took him in his arms, and continued to sleep.

Is Yuan Yao awake or not?Tao Xinian looked at the sky, felt that it was still early, and also felt that his head hurt a little, and he couldn't turn his head, so he didn't bother to worry about it, and continued to sleep on him.

"Brother Tao! Brother Tao, why are you still sleeping? It's almost noon!"

When Lu Yu's voice came, Tao Xinian suddenly woke up, and the sky was already bright.

Yuan Yao had already left, and she covered him with a thin quilt in case he was cold.Abo rolled out of the jar, rubbed mung bean's eyes, and ran to the kitchen to find water to drink.

Lu Yu and the others had seen Abo's real body a long time ago, so he didn't bother to hide it, and let Abo wander in front of them carelessly.

He got up to comb his hair, Lu Yu said: "Brother Tao, my medicine has taken effect, and those crazy patients have improved a lot. Some of the symptoms are mild, and they have recovered more than half of their minds."

"Really? That's great!" Tao Xinian was overjoyed, and moved a little faster.After a while, he washed up and went out with Lu Yu.It was inconvenient for Abo to show up in front of everyone, so he stayed at home and guarded.

Martial law is still in the city today, but Faqing never showed up. Several Taoists took turns looking for him for two days, but found nothing.In the nearby towns, the patrolling soldiers did not find Fa Qing either.

Tao Xinian was puzzled, could it be that he knew the situation was over, so he chose to run away?But he always felt that Faqing might be in the city, in a certain corner, but they hadn't found it.And as long as Faqing doesn't show up for a day, they must not take it lightly.

Three days later, most of the insane patients regained their senses. Some went out of the city to find their relatives and friends, and some did not want to leave Jizhou, so they returned home and slowly resumed their old lives.Among the controlled Taoist friends, more than [-] people are still alive, they also woke up and left Jizhou one after another.The trip to Jizhou may become a nightmare that they don't want to recall for the rest of their lives.

At this time, Yuan Yao also received a Feige order from the imperial court, ordering him to continue to follow Fa Qing and kill Li Guibo immediately, so as not to have long nights and dreams.

Li Guibo was tortured in prison for several days, but he couldn't tell Fa Qing's whereabouts. Tao Xinian guessed that he really didn't know.Fa Qing is much stronger than Li Guibo, and there is no need for Fa Qing to explain his whereabouts to Li Guibo.

Li Guibo said frankly that he cooperated with Faqing in order to obtain relics and greatly increase his skills.The treasure in Fa Qing's hands was indeed, as Tao Xinian had guessed, a piece of Buddha's parietal bone relic.And Faqing's wife is indeed a black snake spirit.Li Guibo said that she left Jizhou a few months ago, and the time when she returned to Jizhou coincided with the time when Tao Xinian and the others repelled the black snake spirit in Fushanyan, and it was Fa Qing who wanted to create the walking corpses in Fushanyan.

As for whether Faqing will use the technique of seizing the house, Li Guibo is not clear.He didn't know much about the reason for Faqing's rebellion. He guessed it might be to gain more power.For the rest of the questions, if I ask him again, he will not be able to explain clearly, and he will not talk about it.

The execution of Li Guibo was carried out secretly, and he was not executed in public.A group of Taoists gathered around the small prison cell and watched the executioner behead Li Guibo with their own eyes.Afterwards, Xuanqing checked again and confirmed that Li Guibo was dead, and there were no signs of the people around him being taken away, so they should be dead.

Li Guibo was dead, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.Thinking that Fa Qing hadn't subdued the law yet, they all felt a little preoccupied.Faqing is like a thorn hanging upside down, and he doesn't know when it will pierce down.They all knew in their hearts that Fa Qing was definitely much more difficult to deal with than Li Guibo.

Unable to hold Faqing, everyone could only temporarily live in Jizhou, still trying to find his trace every day.All the Taoists feel that they are responsible, even Lu Yu, who is not very good at Taoism, didn't mention to go back to Nanliang first, but just wrote to the master of Nanliang to report his safety, and continued to treat the mad patients who had not fully recovered in the city. .

Tao Xinian was not idle, he had nothing to do these few days except to help Lu Yu, so he decided to learn from Qingchen.

Daozhen and Kou Huai are both from the great sect, and there are disciples from the master's sect in Jizhou, he wants to learn some Taoism techniques, he is afraid that even if they are willing to teach, they have to take into account the rules of the master's sect and cannot teach them easily.It is most suitable for Qingchen to be single and experienced.He especially wanted to learn the technique of turning beans into soldiers, but he didn't know if Qingchen would teach it.

This day, he asked Yuan Yao for a bottle of good wine, took the meat jerky made by Abo, and went to Qing Chen, who was guarding the city in the north.

Qingchen sat crookedly on the city wall, looking north, drinking wine from time to time, looking like a drunk.Tao Xiqing walked over lightly and sat beside him.Qingchen smelled the aroma of wine, and smiled at him: "Yo, little Daoist Tao, came to see the old Taoist again. You are very polite, and brought wine for the old Taoist." After finishing speaking, he was not polite at all, and brought the wine over. Opened the bottle cap, took a sip, "Good wine, the wine in the Wei army camp is not bad."

Tao Xinian handed him the preserved meat again, Qingchen took it and ate it, squinting at him, and asked: "Little Daoist Tao, do you have something to ask for today?"

Tao Xinian didn't make any detours, and said, "That's right, Daoist Qingchen, I want to learn from you that you can cast beans into soldiers."

Qingchen didn't expect Tao Xinian to speak so bluntly, he laughed for a while, and said: "You are the most straightforward person I have ever met. But... a jug of wine and a small bag of dried meat make me want to learn how to scatter beans Become a soldier? The seasoned Shuxiu has received too little."

When Tao Xinian heard something interesting, he asked, "What does senior want? This junior will find a way to get it for you."

The veteran Qingchen shook the wine gourd, and it seemed that the gourd was almost empty.He stretched out two fingers and said: "Today you give me the wine, and give me two jars."

"that's it?"

The old Taoist Qingchen said with a smile: "That's it. I'm willing to teach, it depends on whether you can learn."

Tao Xinian quickly replied: "No problem, Shu Xiu can deliver it tomorrow, no, tonight, even two more altars are fine! Senior, do you think I can learn it? Is it difficult to learn how to cast beans into soldiers? "

The old Taoist Qingchen tapped on his forehead, and his brows seemed to frown.Tao Xinian knew that he was exploring his roots of wisdom.

"You are very talented, but why do you practice this kind of evil way? Master taught it?"

Sure enough, Qing Chen discovered his heretical way.

"It wasn't taught by Master, I figured it out by myself."

Qingchen said seriously: "Your inner alchemy is impure, mixed with a little monster energy, but luckily it didn't cause any disaster! It's not that you can't learn it, but that you can't completely transform the spirit of monsters into your own use. How about you Have you never tried to absorb the inner alchemy of a big demon? Fortunately, you have not, otherwise you may be reduced to the way of demons! Didn’t your master discipline you? How did you become able to absorb the soul of a little goblin? "

Facing Qingchen's series of questioning, Tao Xinian felt very ashamed.His master Qingyun is a very gentle person, he has never questioned him so harshly, but he knows that Qingchen is just discussing the facts.

He replied honestly: "I have always been very careful, only absorbing the souls of evil spirits who have never cultivated the inner alchemy. My master's Taoism is not as good as those in Jizhou. He is also very gentle and has never been severely stopped. Me. This method was discovered after a demon hunt. At that time, I saw the spirits falling on the ground, so I picked them up. At that time, I didn’t know why, and the dantian moved around, and the thing was sucked into the body. It’s right. I only started cultivating when I was weak, and my foundation was weak. At that time, I thought that this method would definitely allow me to cultivate the inner alchemy quickly, so I used it a few times..."

Qingchen sighed: "You only started cultivating Taoism when you were weak, and now you are very talented to have such a cultivation base. It is different from ordinary people who have no roots of wisdom that you can see the spirit of monsters at the beginning of learning Taoism."

His father said that Taoists passed by when he was born, and said that only by going up the mountain to practice Taoism can he be safe for the rest of his life.If his father believed in that Taoist back then and sent him to a Taoist temple to practice Taoism, it is unlikely that he is now on the same level as Daozhen, Kou Huai and others.But if this is the case, he will not feel his father's love for him for so many years.

"Apart from killing inferior monsters, have you never killed anything?" Qingchen asked.

"No, I want to cultivate an immortal, and I don't kill."

Qingchen nodded and said: "Very good, not too bad."
