History's first sorcerer

After Zhou Changyong and Shi Wujiu took their seats, there was a moment of silence on the court, Yaque was silent.

In the end, it was Ye Xiao, the protagonist who took the initiative to provoke the topic, "Since everyone is here, the banquet can officially start this time. If you have any questions, please ask. If you can answer, I will try my best to answer." you."

It is said that the banquet has started, but compared with before it started, that is to say, there is another small plate of snacks on everyone's table.A small plate is only about the size of an adult's palm, and there are roughly three or four pieces of snacks in it. There is not even a decent plate, it looks really shabby.

"Could it be that Aqing City is so poor?" A certain immortal cultivator from Hongchentian couldn't help questioning, they came all the way to Righteous Heaven, they couldn't drink this tea, they couldn't eat this snack, how could this be entertaining guests? It's entertaining prisoners.

"The heaven of right and wrong is not as vast as the world of mortals and rich in resources. Most of the demon cultivators don't do production, they just like to get something for nothing, so there are naturally not many of them." They are looking for cooks, embroiderers, farmers and the like, and those bodyguards and killers caught a lot of them. Whether you like these things or not, I am not really inviting you to dinner."

After Ye Xiao finished his rant, he grabbed a piece of dim sum and ate it directly, without looking at that Xianxiu's face.

The lord of this city ate the snacks, can the others not eat them?

"Wu Jiu, let's eat this." Zhou Changyong unhurriedly took out various snacks and fruits from the Sumeru ring, and placed them one by one in front of Shi Wu Jiu.

All these items have extraordinary auras, naturally they are not something that Zhou Changyong can afford, but come from Shi Wujiu's own treasure house.But in front of others, Zhou Changyong naturally wants to give Shi Wuzuo a good face.

"I want to eat this." Shi Wujiu nodded his chin slightly, Zhou Changyong immediately picked up the fruit wisely and handed it to Shi Wujiu's mouth, Shi Wujiu opened his mouth respectfully and bit down.

"Be careful." Zhou Changyong took out a handkerchief, wiped the corners of Shi Wujiu's mouth, and used his hand to smooth the broken hair next to Shi Wujiu's ear, looking extraordinarily thoughtful.Such an attitude combined with Zhou Changyong's handsome face with a hint of gloomy, could not help forming an additional sense of contrast and contradiction.

The monks around looked very sad, they should have brought their beloved concubines or servants with them, so as not to be shown off by others for no reason.

Ying Zhuchun and Bai Tongzi Mo Han stood behind Zhou Changyong and Shi Wujiu, they didn't look at Zhou Changyong and them, so as not to show their feet and be seen by others.

"The two of you are really affectionate." Xu Lu didn't know what method he used to stop the smell of corpses on his body, but his lips were so red that they were extraordinarily bright, which easily reminded Zhou Changyong of his previous life Those vampire-like images in novels and movies.

"Wu Jiu is especially outstanding, so I naturally have to be careful." Zhou Changyong replied without changing his face, "If Mr. Xu also has a Taoist partner, he can probably understand my state of mind worrying about gains and losses."

"Oh, then I will have a Taoist couple in the future, so I will definitely invite you two to have a wedding wine." Xu Lu answered the words very smoothly.

With the beginning of Shi Wujiu, naturally the demons and immortals no longer wronged themselves, and took out some food from their sumeru rings, everything was considered a treasure of heaven and earth.

All of a sudden, this small meeting place became full of aura because of the things they brought out, and those who didn't know thought it was some kind of paradise.

Shi Wujiu ate several fruits in a leisurely manner, and then asked, "I heard that City Lord Ye said before, as long as someone can find the reincarnation of your Taoist companion for you, you will send the Qingxie Lantern, right?"

Immediately, everyone also looked towards Ye Xiao.

With Shi Wujiu here, it might be difficult for them to snatch it by force.At this time, Shi Wujiu took the initiative to ask such a question, which means that Shi Wujiu gave up the idea of ​​force to snatch, and other people can also have a chance.

"That's right." Ye Xiao put down the wine pot and replied seriously, "I called you here for this reason, please take a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, a phantom of a lamp appeared faintly between Ye Xiao's eyebrows.The lamp looks very ordinary, but its extraordinary power can be vaguely seen.

Especially those Buddhist cultivators, who have always been moody and angry, their eyes are almost shining when they see this lamp.

"Back then, Saint Shenzang was the lord of the human race, and the mirror Buddha in my Buddhist world, Xiao Zizaitian, was also born with a relationship with Buddha, and he was also a close friend with Saint Shenzang. This lamp for clearing evil was originally an ordinary green lamp enshrined in front of the Buddha. Later, Mingjing Buddha and Shenzang sages used the green lantern as a carrier for their discussion. After that, the blue lantern possessed extraordinary power, which can drive away evil spirits, protect the heart and protect the gods, and it is a treasure." A slightly older While fiddling with the rosary, the Buddhist cultivator slowly told the past events in detail.

This clearing evil lamp is indeed the magic weapon of the saint of Shenzang, but it is also deeply related to Buddhism.Therefore, when they know that the magic weapon that appears in the right and wrong heaven is the Qingxie lamp, these monks in the Buddhist world will take the initiative to come to the right and wrong heaven.

Although Buddhist cultivation is also a long-standing orthodoxy, it advocates asceticism and has many precepts, but there are not many people who are willing to worship Buddhism and can persevere.

In addition, Buddha Xiu once had a lot of grievances with the Yaozu.How many members of the demon clan were abducted by Buddha cultivators and became Dharma protectors, and how many Buddhist cultivators seduced by the demon clan who relied on their beauty broke the world and returned to vulgarity.

This back and forth, Yaozu and Buddha Cultivator fight each other, but consume each other's strength.

Therefore, the Buddhist world did not occupy the first heaven, but only opened up its own space in the world of mortals, called Xiaozizaitian, and did not get involved in other orthodox disputes on weekdays.

It's a pity that there are more and more monks inheriting other orthodox traditions, but there are fewer and fewer monks inheriting Buddhist orthodoxy.Gradually, these monks in the Buddhist world also realized that they can no longer stand still like this, and they need to find more seedlings of Buddhist cultivation.

It's a pity that there are not many descendants of the monster clan nowadays, and there are fewer and fewer seedlings who have cultivated well, and there are only a handful of treasures belonging to Buddha cultivation.And among the magic weapons of Buddhist cultivation, this evil-clearing lamp undoubtedly ranks extremely high.

According to the thoughts of the Buddhist cultivators, this lamp for purifying evils was jointly created by the sage of Shenzang and their Mingjing Buddha. Now that the sage is gone, this magic weapon should naturally belong to the little self-possessed genius.

If the magic weapon went to the Red Dust Heaven or the Happy Heaven, the Buddhist cultivators would still have something to say, maybe they could take the magic weapon back smoothly.But it's a pity that this magic weapon fell into the sky of right and wrong, and demon cultivators have never been a temperament that takes care of the overall situation.

Once the magic weapon is in their hands, it is theirs. How can I return it to you?

There is no way, the Buddhist cultivators can only come here by themselves to see if they can take away the evil lamp.

The moment Ye Xiao showed the Qingxie Lantern, Zhou Changyong felt the vibration of the scabbard in his Sumeru ring.

After all, this evil lamp is the magic weapon of immortal cultivators and Buddhist cultivators. Ye Xiao preliminarily refined the evil lamp because he was once an immortal cultivator and had the eye to see the truth.It's just that the scabbard of Ah'Xie Dao and Ah'Xie Dao have been together for many years, and have already fused with each other. After sensing the breath of Ah'Xie Dao, the scabbard will naturally vibrate.

"No matter what you say or do, as you can see, this lamp for purifying evils is already connected with my heart and blood. If you can't find the reincarnation of my Taoist companion, I will not give you this lamp for purifying evils. If you want to take it, You can only kill me first. But I would like to advise you, kill me, and this evil lamp will disappear. Therefore, you can only do as I ask, and I can make a Dao heart oath, as long as you help I found the reincarnation of a Taoist companion, so I naturally offered the Qingxie Lantern with both hands."

Ye Xiao simply clarified all his thoughts, so as to prevent them from guessing here and there all the time.

Shi Wujiu couldn't help but glance at Zhou Changyong.

Everything is similar to what Zhou Changyong said.

This Ye Xiao really tied himself and the Qingxie Lantern together, and he just didn't want to die.What if someone is really not threatened by him and destroys him, including the person and the lamp?

There are always some devil cultivators who would rather destroy something and no one can get it than get it by someone.

Ye Xiao's move was too risky.

But this method is surprisingly useful.

After Ye Xiao said such words, the tense atmosphere immediately dissipated without a trace after the Qingxie Lantern appeared.

Not to mention whether it is possible to kill Ye Xiao, if it is true that people and lamps are destroyed together, how can others let this murderer go?They came all the way here, but they didn't come back empty-handed.

"Please forgive me for being rude." Xu Lu naturally longed for the evil lamp, but Ye Xiao's request was a little too much, "Everyone knows that since the closure of Huang Quantian, all monks can no longer seal the memory of the soul and reincarnate to rebuild. Moreover, the lack of the Dao of Reincarnation does not guarantee that every monk's soul can be reincarnated smoothly, and some of them are unlucky and dissipate directly between heaven and earth, or they are reincarnated into other races. In case your Taoist partner What if I was reincarnated as a bird or a cat?"

"That's right. If you want to know people's reincarnation, you must either become the Lord of the Underworld, or master the Book of Life and Death. However, the Book of Life and Death escaped from the hands of the three quasi-sages and disappeared for many years. Some people say that it has returned to the Underworld. My God. It's not that we don't want to help you find it, but we really don't have the power to do so." Another demon cultivator also followed Xu Lu to help.

Now, they don't even have the most basic clues and means. How can they find Ye Xiao's reincarnation?

"He is different from you." Ye Xiao gritted his teeth, "His ancestors have profound merits and virtues, and he has blessed future generations. He will be reincarnated smoothly every time, and he will be a wealthy family who does not worry about food and clothing. You just need to find someone If you have merit marks on your body, you may be my Taoist partner."

"No, no, no one's merits and virtues can always be preserved to protect future generations." A fairy in the world of mortals shook his head and said, "Unless it is such a major event as saving the world, it is probably delusional for future generations to want to enjoy the merits of ancestors forever. In addition, if your Taoist companion is truly blessed, I am afraid that I have already been with you for a long time now."

Since the other party fell early, it means that the other party's merits have also come to an end.

This is the reason why Ye Xiao couldn't find it all the time.

If it can be found only by merit mark alone, then how could Ye Xiao have been searching for it for so many years and still haven't been found?

Ye Xiao's face suddenly turned ugly, and he didn't leave any room for words, "If it's easy to find, why should I use the evil-eliminating lamp? The quasi-sage once calculated for me, saying that the only chance for me to find him is in this evil-eliminating lamp." Middle. The quasi-sage's words naturally convinced me. If you can't find it, then you have no ability. Since you don't have this ability, even if you get the evil-clearing lamp and see the quasi-sage, it is useless. You might as well leave !"

He does have the book of life and death, but he has only just been recognized by the book of life and death, and it is impossible to find out the reincarnation of someone right now.

A person's fate is unpredictable, and it is not common to see.

But since I was destined to come here, it meant that in the dark, the way of heaven still gave Ye Xiao a chance, it just depends on whether Ye Xiao can seize it.

This evil-clearing lamp may also be useful to me.

"May I ask who is your Taoist companion's name, why did he fall, and when did he fall? In addition to the merit mark, how can you be sure that the person we found is the one you want?"

If Ye Xiao could recognize people, he would naturally have a way to tell them apart.

"I know it right away." Ye Xiao replied, "My Taoist companion is named Wei Lianhuan."

"Wei?" A fairy in Hongchentian suddenly remembered, "Are you talking about the Wei family who devoted himself to the earth in order to make up for the loopholes in the world during the catastrophe of Hongchentian 10,000+ years ago?"

"I seem to have heard it from the master. The Wei family is a hybrid of the monster race and the human race in ancient times. They were born to be close to the earth. When the gods practiced Taoism at its peak, almost all the mountain gods and land gods came from the Wei family. Family. It’s a pity that there was a catastrophe in the world of mortals, the unification of gods and Taoists failed, and the Wei family suffered heavy casualties. I thought this family was extinct, but I didn’t expect that there are still descendants in the world?”

But in this way, it matches what Ye Xiao said before.

Almost all of Wei Lianhuan's ancestors died because of fighting against the catastrophe of heaven and earth, and the way of heaven will naturally bring down merit.This Wei Lianhuan is naturally a descendant of the Wei family, so he can also enjoy the protection of his ancestors.

It's just that this was 10,000+ years ago after all.

The merits of those years have been moved to the present, how much can be left?

Ye Xiao remained silent.

Wei Lianhuan's merits and virtues are enough for him to cultivate to the level of Immortal Venerable, but he died because of him.

At first, Ye Xiao only relied on the power of his eyes to discover Wei Lianhuan's profound merits from the crowd, and he didn't have to worry about his eyes being coveted when he acted together.

Slowly, they experienced life and death together, and experienced many things that they had never experienced before.From the mortal world to the world of comprehension, and then to the world of ascension to the world of mortals and immortals, they have come through ups and downs all the way.

But who knows, the secret of his eyes was exposed somehow, and people have been chasing him, and he almost thought he was going to die several times, all because of Wei Lianhuan leading him to hide in Tibet.

I don't know what kind of method the person who chased and killed them used. The longer he and Wei Lianhuan hid, the more people died because of them, and the merits of Wei Lianhuan were also being worn away bit by bit. .

In the end, before dying, Wei Lianhuan made a great wish to transfer all his little merits to Ye Xiao.After Wei Lianhuan's death, Ye Xiao was devastated and fell into the devil's way. However, because of his skills, he didn't change his mind greatly because of falling into the devil's way, but his skills continued to multiply.

Afterwards, he had a smooth journey in the right and wrong days, even with a magic weapon like the Qingxie Lantern, he had it very easily.

But what about Wei Lianhuan?

No matter how he searched, there was still no trace of him.

The Wei family had great merit back then, even if Wei Lianhuan died, he would definitely be reincarnated as a human being, and maybe he could also embark on the path of cultivation.It's just that there are so many people, how many places can he find?

So Ye Xiao could only ask for help.

Using the Qingxie Lantern as a bait, everyone in the Nine Heavens and Ten Realms who wanted to get the Lantern came to help find it.If God is merciful, maybe there is still a chance.

"With the first and last name, the time and place of death, it will be more convenient to calculate the location of your Taoist companion." Bai Tongzi sensed Zhou Changyong's order and opened his mouth.

Now Bai Tongzi and Ying Zhuchun are ghost cultivators on the surface.As for matters involving reincarnation, ghost cultivation is naturally more convenient.

"If everything is as the city lord said, even if your Taoist companion is reincarnated, I am afraid that the mark of merit will be very dim, or it may be difficult to find." Bai Tongzi continued, "In this way, if you want to find it, there may be some problems in time. .”

"I can afford to wait for as long as possible." Ye Xiao said solemnly, "I don't ask for another marriage, I just want to see him again."

This matter is difficult to say, but it is not difficult. After all, even the mark of merit and virtue is released, and the range of choices is much smaller.But it is difficult to say, there are so many living beings in the nine heavens and ten realms, how difficult is it to find a person with a mark of merit?If the other party has never stepped into practice, but enjoys wealth and peace in the mortal world, how can they find it?If you accidentally intervene in the mortal world with too many fates, you will be backlashed by the Dao of Heaven.

"It's not that I can help you find it." Shi Wujiu took a bite of the fruit, "As long as you keep your word, before we bring the person, you have to take care of the evil spirit lamp."

"Naturally." Ye Xiao replied affirmatively.

"Okay, let's go." Shi Wujiu was a little tired, he tried his best to appear on the stage, it was fun, and he watched it, and he already knew what kind of level these people are.So, there's nothing left to do here.

"Okay." Zhou Changyong immediately got up and followed.

"Please rest assured, Lord Ye, we will help you find it as soon as possible." Zhou Changyong said with a smile, Ying Zhuchun and Bai Tongzi on both sides also nodded.

"Wait." Mo Han stopped and looked at Ye Xiao, "Master Ye, I just want to know, how did you get Ah Xie Dao, and why did my master fall?"

"Why should I tell you?" Ye Xiao asked back, "You are not my guest, so I have no obligation to answer you."

"Master Ye, I have worked so hard to come here, you..."

"What does it have to do with me?" After Ye Xiao fell into the magic way, except for his feelings for the Taoist companion, other people are almost no different in his eyes.

The reason why Zhou Changyong and Shi Wujiu are different is that they can help.Ying Zhuchun and Bai Tongzi seem to be ghost cultivators, and they can also help, and Ye Xiao will also answer any questions.

But Mo Han is obviously not in this list.

"City Master Ye, if I ask him this question?" Zhou Changyong stopped, turned to look at Ye Xiao and said.

Mo Han gave Zhou Changyong a grateful look.

"I can answer half of your answer first." Ye Xiao looked at Mo Han and said, "Your master's death has nothing to do with me. If you want to know all the truth, bring my Taoist companion to see me. I feel better , naturally have something to say. If you are in a bad mood, even if you kneel down in front of me, I will not be half moved, please—"

Ye Xiao picked up the jug on the table, drank a few sips, and immediately issued the order to evict the guests.

Seeing Ye Xiao like this, the others knew that there was nothing to talk about, so they all got up and said goodbye.

Compared to this, they should think carefully about whether there is any way to find someone with a mark of merit.

Speaking of this reincarnation, this imprint of merit and virtue should be best at ghost cultivation, Buddha cultivation and spiritual cultivation.

No wonder Ye Xiao deliberately sent the news to Hongchentian, probably for the purpose of Hongchentian's Buddhist and spiritual cultivation.

It's a pity that all the spiritual cultivators stayed at home and didn't come at all.

And these demon cultivators, if they want to find someone, they may have to spend a lot of effort.

On the other side, the world of mortals and self-cultivation.

"Hey, buddy, you can go back first, don't bother me here." Zi Shanjun was a little impatient, and he wanted to drive Chen Huayu away with all his heart.

"What, you want me to leave?" Chen Huayu was shocked, his face full of disbelief, "Now that Hushan is in turmoil, everyone has discovered that Mrs. Caiyun has fallen, and now the western border is in chaos. I came here to look for you because I was worried about you. , you don't appreciate it at all?"

"It's easy to say." Zi Shanjun cupped his hands slightly, "Now Wang 75jian is a monk in the Mahayana period. He just sent me hundreds of sword symbols a few days ago, and now I have more than enough to protect myself. But you, my friend, come every day Looking for me is to put your own safety at risk, you should leave earlier. I know you came because you were urged to make alchemy, but I am really busy right now."

"Hehe, don't lie to me." Chen Huayu found it funny and funny, "Isn't it because you recently took in a lonely ghost as an apprentice, and you focused on nurturing him to become a mountain god in your class as soon as possible? I have known you for many years, you You actually have a new love and don't want my old love?"

"Speaking of it, it's really a bit." Zi Shanjun blinked and answered very seriously, "Friend, I'm really tired of seeing your face. How can you compare to my fresh and fresh apprentice? You know, I In order to accept an apprentice, I have been delayed for hundreds of years. The fellow Taoists in the same period have already become gods, and I am still waiting for my apprentice. After finally accepting the apprentice, it will be soon before I can be named a mountain god. Naturally, I will Get your work done first."

Chen Huayu was almost fuming with anger at Zishanjun's unreasonable attitude of liking the new and disliking the old.

"Your apprentice is better than you." Chen Huayu rolled his eyes angrily, "I see, your apprentice will become a god by then, and you will still be just a Purple Mountain Monarch!"

"That's fine." Zi Shanjun was particularly shameless, "As an apprentice, how can you not drag me as a master?"

Chen Huayu was so angry that he fell on his back.

The author has something to say: Author: Do you still remember Zi Shanjun who never received an apprentice?

Reader: ...Who?

Author: It's the spiritual cultivator who likes to look older and older.

Reader: This aesthetic... seems to be a bit impressive.
