Chapter 218 Quietly
“It’s a pity that the immortal master passed by earlier and scared a lot of big fish, otherwise we could have harvested more this time.”
“Shut up, Who are you? You dare to say that the Immortal Master is wrong. We can live a stable life by relying on the Immortal Master’s protection.” That’s all, if outsiders listen, you will have to suffer a lot.”
Listening to the exchanges among the people in the reeds, Chu Tai secretly marveled that the ecology of this place seemed to be a combination of cultivators and mortals, or some of it. combine.
'Furthermore, the way these people practice is also interesting. Although it is rough, their strength is obviously stronger than that of ordinary people, and their breath is much longer than ordinary people. They should specialize in two aspects: vigor and diving. The stronger ones throw weapons by themselves, and the weaker ones use equipment...'
Chu Tai glanced twice, followed the popularity, and fled towards the gathering place on an island.
It is said to be a gathering place, but the population is not large.
Overall, this gathering place is somewhat similar to the port city in Chu Tai's memory. There are densely packed large and small ships scattered around the periphery of the gathering place, and countless fishermen are coming in and out with their harvests.
Chu Tai walked inside, avoiding the fish market where the smell of fish was the strongest, and walked inside.
Life such as those living in water and on islands usually feed on fish, and rice has become a precious thing here.
Chu Tai saw a sturdy man holding a treasure fish into a well-decorated rice shop and exchanged it for three ounces of fine rice.
Putting it on the boat that Chu Tai was on before, the value of the treasure fish could be exchanged for at least three hundred kilograms of polished rice.
This kind of price that is different from the outside world is also quite novel for Chu Tai.
But the curiosity only lasted for a moment. Chu Tai’s bigger purpose of coming here was to identify the practitioners here, and then find a suitable place among the mountains and rivers, to understand the characteristics of the mountains and rivers here, and to improve his mastery. The legal principles of [mountains and rivers].
But Chu Tai searched around and saw no practitioners. Instead, he saw many martial arts schools in the gathering place, teaching some cultivation methods.
Chu Tai just took a few glances from a distance and determined that these methods were roughly similar to the cultivation methods of fishermen outside. It was just that some of the transportation methods were more subtle, and his future achievements would be slightly higher, compared to what he had done in the Bamboo Sea. During the performance, the people at the foot of the mountain didn't understand the skills as well as they could. In the end, they could only reach the eighth level with the help of some heretical methods.
Chu Tai was disappointed when he saw this scene and planned to leave.
But just as he was about to leave, he suddenly felt something was wrong, but a slender filament slipped into his sleeve at some point.
"Who stole it from me..."
Chu Tai sneered in his heart, and a ray of true energy spread along the long thread.
I never thought that there was a thin layer of energy on the surface of the filament, which was so slippery that even Chu Tai's true energy couldn't handle it and was avoided by it.
But with a slight aura, the fate has been forged, Chu Tai saw the appearance of the other party. He was a short old man who looked like a naughty boy. His Taoist robes were dirty and dirty, but his aura was good. , has entered the sixth level, a little bit of Dharma has been leaked, but it has reached the threshold of the fifth level.
Seeing Chu Tai, it seemed that the little old man did not have the slightest fear or shame of being discovered. Instead, he had a rogue look on his face and bowed to Chu Tai with a smile, showing two yellow teeth.
"Fellow Taoist, you are polite! Little old man, I am blind and do not recognize the true Buddha. Please forgive me and spare me this time. If you want reward, please wait a moment. I I have found a fat sheep, and I will have the money to repay it after I finish this job." Chu Tai saw that this little old man was lazy and funny, but he also saw the way this man practiced. The condensed Dharma intention is also a concept of stealing and stealing, and there seems to be some thoughts of eliminating evil and promoting good. Looking at its breath, although it is a little mixed, it is overall clear and has a little merit. It is obviously not an evil heretic.
Chu Tai shook his head repeatedly: "Your practice is rare among the thieves. It almost condenses the will of the law. I thought that the person who came to steal this time was unusual, so I thought Ask me for help, just say it bluntly, why bother?”
Hearing this, the old man looked bitter, raised his hands to Chu Tai, and prayed: “Fellow Taoist, his eyes are like a torch, and he can see through the little old man at a glance. This is a small thought, but I am not here to ask my Taoist friends to protect me, but to protect the living beings here."
"What are you going to do?"
Chu Tai frowned slightly. He said displeasedly: "I haven't agreed yet, but you want to manipulate me with your words. What do the creatures here have to do with me? If you don't make it clear, I will leave now."
Hearing this, the old man hurriedly told Chu Tai what he knew.
It turns out that this lake is vast and there is not close communication between the islands. A group of side sect monks established a dojo nearby, enslaved the people here, let people practice exercises, polish their muscles, and then deceive some with follow-up methods. People who have achieved success in practice should use supplementary methods to improve their practice diligently.
“Although those people will give some elixirs to nourish others’ energy and teach them some inferior breathing techniques afterwards, the price is the longevity of those who were deceived for more than ten years in the future, and The innate essence of the Three Treasures is simply not matched."
"A friend of the little old man was angry when he saw this scene, so he invited me to eliminate the evil miasma here, but the two casual cultivators were a bit confused. His ability, relying on the favorable location, actually surpassed me and others."
"So, I thought about stealing the treasure from their sect tonight, destroying the ground of their dojo, and destroying their power. Formation, and then work with friends to take them down and restore the surrounding world.”
After hearing this, Chu Tai looked at the little old man without responding. Seeing his gaze, he said slowly: "By the way, can you also take this opportunity to further improve your Dharma principles and step into the fifth level?"
Hearing the words, the little old man touched the back of his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Although it is for practice, isn't it also for the local creatures?"
Hearing the words, Chu Tai just shook his head. Shaking his head, he asked, "I'll go and see with you."
Hearing this, the little old man immediately beamed with joy, made a gesture and fled outside.
On the way, he seemed to want to show off, and used various escape techniques such as water escape, wind escape, cloud escape, etc., but Chu Tai would spot him every time he changed his position, so he admired Chu Tai even more.
When he met his friend, he praised Chu Tai's ability and said that with his help, the two of them would be able to suppress the evil cultivators.
"Wait a minute, I didn't say I wanted to help."
Chu Tai bluntly denied the little old man's words, saying that he wanted to see the origins of those people before making a decision.
At the same time, Chu Tai looked the little old man up and down and said, "Besides, you didn't even tell me your name, how can I trust you?"
Hearing this, the little old man said again He bowed repeatedly and said: "It's my fault. The path is quiet. I have met my Taoist friend, but I don't know his name."
I finally straightened out my next thoughts and went to rest first. The afternoon update was postponed as usual.
