Chapter 123: The method of entering the Tao, the method of transforming into a corpse demon, Qiu Heshan
Immediately afterwards, Chen Yushu saw the water surface shaking violently.
Apparently in the water, Xiao Hei had already fallen to death with that one and started fighting fiercely.
After a while, a broken arm was seen floating out directly following the surge under the water.
"This...this..."
When the old boatman saw it, his face turned pale and panicked. He looked at Qi Jichuan carefully and said, "Young man, are you okay?"
"Don't worry."
Qi Jichuan waved his hands, looking calm.
There was no trace of worry on Chen Yushu's face.
That one fell to death was only a bigger threat because he was in the water, but Xiao Hei is a zombie, and he is also a dead thing. He does not need to breathe underwater, and his level of strength is not much worse than that of Xie Zombie. .
Dealing with a dead one is of course not a problem.
really.
The movement under the water soon stopped, and then a body soaked in water and swollen like a pig was seen, turning over and lying motionless on the water.
It was the dead body.
But at this moment, after falling to death, the whole head was tilted, one arm was broken, one foot was completely bent, and there were even several holes in its heart. The scene was very scary.
Then there was a crash.
Xiao Hei came out of the water.
Zhao Yufeng stood up at this time, grabbed Xiao Hei's arm, and pulled him directly onto the boat.
"It's okay.
Boatman, please continue to punt. ”
Then, Qi Jichuan spoke to the old boatman.
"Ah...ah...ok..."
The old boatman screamed twice, as if he had just come to his senses, and kept looking at Xiao Hei. For some reason, he always felt that something was wrong with him.
Because when he stood on the boat, his body was obviously soaked, but he did not shake at all. He shook off his clothes and his eyes. Only then did he see clearly that the other person's eyes were lifeless, with only the whites of his eyes. There were no pupils, and its face was white and blue. It didn't look like a normal person's face at all, more like... like a dead person.
dead?
Combined with this, apart from moving, it didn't speak the whole time...
He suddenly realized that it was not a human being at all.
Thinking that he had enthusiastically wanted to introduce his girl to her before, his body trembled.
Fortunately, the other party didn't agree, otherwise wouldn't it be a disaster?
The old boatman slowly pushed the boat. He no longer dared to be as relaxed as before. He didn't even dare to look at a few more people, looking cautious.
At this time, Chen Yushu didn't look around anymore.
There were actually a lot of various things in this river, and he was afraid that if his eyes glanced randomly, he would encounter something again.
Especially after he used the Qi Watching Technique, he clearly saw a line of black energy rising in a reed marsh not far away.
Further away, almost in the middle of the river, there is a whirlpool that rotates from time to time. Within the whirlpool, there is obviously a green air rotating in it. It is estimated that there is something inside.
"However, this is also because my qi-watching technique has reached a small level of success and is about to become a big one.
Otherwise it would be really difficult to discover these things. ”
Chen Yushu had discovered long ago that the higher the level of Qi Wangshu, the more things he could see.
Just like when I first started, I could only see the incense, Taoism, and Qi and blood strength of others.
When you are proficient in it, you can look at the trend of earth energy in the mountains, rivers and terrain.
When you are done, you can see many unique atmospheres hidden in mountains, rivers and rivers.
For example, dead, zombies.
The reason why he was able to detect the evil zombie earlier was because he had already mastered the Qi-gazing technique at that time and could 'see' the 'Qi' belonging to the other party in advance.
Afterwards, Chen Yushu closed his eyes and began to directly practice the White Tiger Concept.
Even if he can't practice martial arts, he won't waste time.
As he began to practice, white tigers with divine forms took shape in his mind. At the same time, countless free spiritual particles around him continued to pour into his body as he practiced visualization.
Once, twice, three times...
Incense Daoxing+1
As the aroma of incense increased, Chen Yushu slowly opened his eyes.
"Where are you?"
Chen Yushu asked.
"After passing this water area, we turn around a hill and we are there."
The old boatman replied quickly.
"It's no wonder that you are so good at such a young age.
This diligence and energy are really nothing to say.
The effort of just sitting on the boat is not wasted, and you can calm down and practice meditation... You must have reached the state of meditation, right? ”
At this time, Qi Jichuan also spoke, looking at him with surprise in his eyes.
Chen Yushu remained silent and did not speak.
"Are you really determined?
This is really... When I was your age, I was only shallow.
It was only when I was in my early twenties that I reached the Xiaoding level.
As for Dading, it was only achieved by chance a few years ago..."
Seeing this, Qi Jichuan couldn't help but show envy on his face.
Dading!
Although it is not a great realm, it is an extremely important realm for any wanderer, and it is a clear dividing line between genius and mediocrity.
Only by reaching great concentration.
It is possible for Yin-walking talents to break through and enter the Tao level without relying on any external force.
Otherwise, we can only take some detours and use external forces to force the situation.
Although there are also successful cases, the cost is often high.
And it was only a few years ago that he accidentally entered the realm of Dingding due to a life-and-death crisis. That crisis was always regarded as a blessing by him, and it also allowed him to make a comeback from adversity and solve the trouble.
But looking back now at the danger involved, he was still frightened.
It can be said that he only reached his inner state after going through many hardships and countless life and death battles.
Therefore, he was extremely envious of Chen Yushu for being able to reach the state of great concentration at a young age.
"Compared with Senior Qi, I'm still far behind."
Chen Yushu shook his head and said.
"You don't have to comfort me.
Only after entering the Great Ding can you realize that the difference between the Small Ding and the Great Ding is huge.
Now that I am also in great concentration, my cultivation speed is not slow.
As long as you follow the steps step by step, it is possible to enter the Tao. ”
Qi Jichuan waved his hand, but his eyes were full of confidence.
Although he wasted a lot of time on practicing martial arts, his Taoist cultivation has now reached the perfection of three sticks of incense, and he is only one step away from entering samadhi.
"However, there is one thing that I have never been clear about.
I wonder if seniors can shed some light on my doubts. ”
Chen Yushu nodded first, then with a thoughtful look on his face, he asked.
"What's the matter?"
Qi Jichuan asked.
"Why do the two seniors have to pick up the body?"
Chen Yushu thought for a while and added another sentence, "This time, since we are acting together, there are some things that I think I need to know."
This time, he was essentially here to return a favor.
But he didn't want to, so he plunged into it in a daze.
In particular, he vaguely guessed that the corpse raised this time was unusual. He was a strong man of the same profession and the master of the two. His methods must be very clever. No one knew how much the other party had arranged for his tomb. Backhand.
He naturally needs to understand clearly.
Otherwise, I don’t know how he died.
"I really should tell you this."
At this time, on the other side, Zhao Yufeng, who had been closing his eyes to rest, also opened his eyes and spoke.
While speaking, he looked vaguely at the old boatman on the bow.
So he thought for a while, reached out from the cloth bag, quickly took out seven small flags, and planted them in seven directions on the deck.
Then make a hand gesture with both hands and put a little bit on one of the small flags.
Suddenly, there was a faint stream of light flowing among the small flags. As it flashed away, it was connected with several other small flags.
Seeing a look of confusion on Chen Yushu's face, he explained: "This is a sound isolation array.
Once placed, the sound inside will be isolated and will not be heard by people outside the space.
Of course, this is not very clever, and it is difficult to work on some advanced and powerful warriors and those who are evil.
But of course it wouldn't be a problem for an ordinary boatman. ”
"That's it."
Chen Yushu nodded, and then looked at the positions of the seven small flags one by one. Under the Qi Reading Technique, he could see clearly the Qi machines around them.
Then, he briefly recalled the technique that Zhao Yufeng had just shown in his mind, and saw that it was just a formation-initiating technique. It seemed complicated, but in his eyes, there was almost no secret.
Because, with just one glance, he was able to reproduce it perfectly.
This is Changding!
It has a photographic memory and can be copied perfectly.
"Is this considered a success in secretly learning?"
Chen Yushu muttered secretly, but his face did not change at all.
"Actually, the corpses we are going to exhume this time are the graves of Qi Jichuan and I.
Our master, when we were very young, took Qi Jichuan and I, as well as Qi Jichuan's sister, Qi Yuxiang, as his disciples, and taught us how to visit tombs in the underworld.
Among them, I learned about raising corpses.
Qi Yuxiang learned the art of inviting gods, while Qi Jichuan learned the art of walking through the yin and refining the body.
It has to be said that this old beast is quite capable and has inherited many secret techniques.
We followed him along the way and helped him do many things.
However, he had not yet revealed his true nature.
Until, Qi Yuxiang and I fell in love with each other and asked him to host our wedding.
The old beast's attitude changed.
Although he agreed on the surface, he sent Qi Jichuan and me away the day before our wedding actually took place.
Then, when we came back the next day.
Yuxiang..."
As he said that, the emotions on Zhao Yufeng's face suddenly became excited, and there were even more tears in his eyes.
Qi Jichuan, who was on the side, patted his senior brother on the shoulder, took over the conversation, and said: "My sister was only wearing a bellyband, with only thin skin and flesh left on her body, and she died in her room.
That old beast... happened to be seriously injured at that time, but he actually used the tonic technique on my sister and killed her alive..."
Chen Yushu was silent.
He couldn't comment on this matter.
But he understood the mood of the two people very well.
When he left, he was fine. When he came back, he saw his sister and fiancée dying in the room with torn clothes. Moreover, the person closest to him in the previous mission had used evil techniques such as picking and tonic, and he was still alive and dead. Death, this kind of blow is indeed extremely huge.
It's no wonder that the hatred between the two is so overwhelming that they can't let it go after so many years.
"Afterwards, we began to desperately seek revenge on that old beast.
However, he also knew that if he did this, he would definitely suffer our wrath, and since he was injured, he would definitely not be a match for our senior brothers, so he ran away.
We tracked it down for a long time.
It was only some time ago that a senior brother discovered his traces.
It was finally confirmed that the other party would place his tomb here. ”
Qi Jichuan said, with a fierce look on his face.
"So, it's impossible for me to let him rest in peace. This corpse must be raised.
However, we hate this old beast so much.
But I have to admit that his methods are extraordinary.
Do not preach these means to us.
As we discovered, he also mastered many unique techniques.
Some, even some secrets in Taoism.
I don’t know how he learned it, which even included the ‘method of entering the Tao’. ”
Speaking of this, Zhao Yufeng couldn't help but reveal a trace of yearning on his face.
"How to enter the Tao?"
Chen Yushu was also stunned.
He had long discovered that his White Tiger Concept could only allow him to practice to the level of three sticks of incense.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
But entering the Tao, as well as the practice after entering the Tao, were directly discontinued.
Therefore, although he knew that after three sticks of incense, he would enter the Tao.
But in fact, it is not clear how to enter the Tao, nor is it clear what the subsequent path should be.
Before, he had actually thought about obtaining subsequent cultivation methods from Sister Qiaoer.
But firstly, the other party has helped him enough, and secondly, since he is only at the level of two sticks of incense now, he doesn't want to give the other party the feeling of being ambitious, so he never mentions it.
Now that he heard about the 'method of entering the Tao', he couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.
"That's right.
The way to enter the Tao.
That old beast, before he was injured, had actually reached the level of three sticks of incense and was about to enter the Tao.
So we have actually been helping him and preparing for him to enter the Tao.
Because of this, I knew that he had a way to enter the Tao.
Speaking of which, I feel ashamed.
The reason why we went to pick up the corpse this time was not only to avenge Yuxiang, but we also thought about obtaining this method from his tomb.
After all, the two of us have actually been trapped in the realm of three sticks of incense for a long time. ”
Zhao Yufeng was silent for a while and said.
"Brother, you don't have to blame yourself.
Although we are a little selfish in doing this, if we don't do it for ourselves, we will be punished by heaven and earth.
My sister is dead and irretrievable.
It is completely normal for us to avenge her and get something back.
Not to mention, don't forget, that old beast is planning to sacrifice himself into a corpse demon.
Once a corpse demon becomes a demon, it starts at the evil level.
And it can retain most of the memories from his lifetime.
We have been hunting him for so long, and when he becomes mature, it will be time for him to hunt us. ”
Qi Jichuan on the side quickly comforted him.
Zhao Yufeng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I have come out long ago.
That old beast has a corpse-refining formation, which is indeed very powerful.
I, Xiaohei, relied on some skins from the Corpse Refining Formation, but in just a few years, I was able to reach the evil level.
But that old beast was able to set up a double corpse refining formation.
Taking the century-old tomb as a guide, it was used as the first level of corpse refining formation.
Then, use the first level of corpse refining formation as the source of power to fully supply the tomb where you are, forming the second level of formation.
Therefore, even though he himself was not buried for a long time, with the help of the power of the century-old tomb, his moral conduct is definitely not shallow.
Next, there will inevitably be a tough battle. ”
"And his technique of transforming zombies, I don't know where he got it from.
This old beast came from an ordinary background. He was just a magic stick at first. He only started to practice the Yin inheritance in his twenties, and he accepted a few of us at the age of thirty.
As a result, there are more and more methods at hand.
I always feel like there must be a big secret hidden in him. ”
Qi Jichuan said immediately.
"No matter what.
When his body was picked up at night, we would naturally find out. ”
Zhao Yufeng said calmly.
"Thank you two seniors for clearing up the confusion."
Chen Yushu cupped his hands and said.
In my heart, I felt a little nervous for no reason.
Corpse demons start at the evil level!
This is definitely not a small deterrent to him, and he doesn't think that his current strength can compete with such existences.
"Don't worry.
It is not that easy to become a corpse demon.
If there is even a slight mistake, not only will the transformation not be successful, but you will even be directly refining to death.
Not to mention, even if the old beast had everything ready, it would go very smoothly.
In just ten years, it is impossible for him to truly turn into a corpse demon. ”
Seemingly sensing Chen Yushu's hesitation, Qi Jichuan waved his hand and said.
While talking, the boat moved forward in the river.
After a while, he came to the edge of a reed swamp and stopped.
"My boss, my boss..."
Immediately afterwards, the old boatman came over with a cautious look on his face, looking inquiring.
Zhao Yufeng took advantage of the situation and took out the small flags one by one.
Then Qi Jichuan stood up and asked: "But it's here?"
"Go back to my employer.
It is actually still a little far away from the Qiu Heshan you mentioned before.
However, I just saw the official ship.
There are not only official ships, but also several merchant ships from the Haihai Gang. My ship is where my family eats. I dare not go near those ships, otherwise if they are detained, my family will have no chance of survival.
So, I took it upon myself to find a place like this and stop. ”
"Okay.
So how far is it from Qiuhe Mountain? ”
Qi Jichuan asked.
When Chen Yushu heard this, he quickly thought that the official ship and the merchant ship of the Haihai Gang should be the government, as well as many people in the entire Jianghuan Town who had gathered because of the news about the century-old tomb.
If he remembered correctly, the time set by the government to open the tomb was today.
"What's not far is not far anymore.
Go ashore from here, go around the mountain, and climb to the other side to reach it.
It's even faster to go over here.
Because if we go by boat, we have to make a detour, which will delay us even more. ”
The old boatman explained quickly.
"Oh?
In that case, let's get off the ship from here. ”
After hearing this, Zhao Yufeng stood up.
Chen Yushu and Qi Jichuan naturally had no objection.
Then the group of them went ashore.
The last zombie, Xiao Hei, naturally jumped under the control of Zhao Yufeng.
With a bang, he landed directly on the shore.
Seeing this, the old boatman trembled and did not dare to ask anything. He quickly waved his hand and said: "Master, go slowly."
As he said that, he held on to the bamboo pole and pushed himself away from the shore.
"Hey, wait..."
Seeing this, Qi Jichuan quickly greeted him.
The old boatman trembled when he heard this and replied tremblingly: "What's wrong?"
But he didn't dare to continue holding the boat and leave.
"Your money hasn't been confiscated yet."
Qi Jichuan rolled his eyes and said.
"Yes, yes...I forgot..."
The old boatman breathed a sigh of relief and had to carefully push the boat back. After taking the money from Qi Jichuan, he didn't dare to stop anymore and quickly pushed the boat away.
"Brother, it seems that your little black guy has scared people."
It wasn't until the boatman left that Qi Jichuan spoke with a smile.
"That's when he rushed home.
Xiao Hei is usually very docile. ”
Zhao Yufeng said in a calm tone.
Then, Yang led the way and quickly walked to the mountain pointed by the previous boatman.
Behind him, Xiao Hei jumped up and down, not fast but not small.
Fortunately, this place is quite deserted, so no one would be shocked if they see such a scene.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Yushu and Qi Jichuan followed.
Less than half an hour later.
The group of people then went up the mountain and had a hasty lunch with the mountain spring water.
Standing on the top of the mountain, Qi Jichuan pointed to a place in front of him and said, "See that raised hill near the river?"
Seeing Chen Yushu nodding, he continued: "That's Qiu Heshan.
Go west to Qiuhe Mountain and continue walking for three miles to reach Shuiliangou. ”
Chen Yushu glanced at the two mountain tops respectively.
It is obvious that the two hills are connected together like gourds.
Of course, at their location, he also discovered several official ships and merchant ships from the Sea Skittering Gang.
It was full of people.
There were not only many warriors among them, but also a few wanderers who made Chen Yushu feel slightly familiar.
At least, there were many people he had met once in the market.
For example, the strong man carrying the coffin was sitting on the bow of the Sea Skitter Gang's merchant ship.
He also took the body with him and placed it at the bow of the ship.
It was obvious that the people around him were a little far away from him, as if they were afraid of being taboo.
In addition to him, there was also the Talisman Maker Feng Talisman. In addition, on the bow of another boat, he also saw the three heroes from Lingxia...
"Shuiliangou is the tomb of the great martial artist, a century-old tomb.
And Qiu Heshan.
If we guessed correctly, it should be the place that the old beast has set for himself to sell himself. ”
Qi Jichuan said, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.
He had been preparing for this day for a long time.
When it comes time to actually do it, it’s inevitable that you’ll be a little nervous and excited.
"Then do we have to rush to Qiu Heshan first?"
Chen Yushu quickly looked away from the ships and asked.
