Chapter 462: Coming to the door
Boom.
Almost instantly.
The vitality of the whole world became restless, and the purple energy poured into Shen Ping's body from all directions, and gathered into the bones along the meridians, without receiving any blood. Before he was too old, he could only absorb one ray of purple energy every day while meditating. But now that his Tao bones have transformed, coupled with his devouring talent, he can absorb more than thirty rays of purple energy in less than a few dozen breathing efforts.
Hu Chi Chi.
His skin sounded like a blower being blasted by a large amount of purple energy.
After half a cup of tea.
The purple energy of heaven and earth bred by the rising sun disappears.
The strange phenomena around Shen Ping also dissipated.
His true spirit was immersed in his body, and he looked at the lines on the surface of the Tao bones condensed by the energy of life. They had already increased by one circle. This meant that in just half a cup of tea, he had gained a year of Taoism.
The speed of cultivation increased more than a hundred times.
If blood Tai Sui alone cannot achieve this effect at all, most of it is caused by the Devouring Talent. If the news leaks out, I am afraid that the entire Taoist sect in the world will be shocked, and the Taoist temples in famous mountains and rivers will go crazy. Scramble.
But for this.
Shen Ping is not interested at all. He did not come to this world to become a genius.
Get up.
Activating his teleportation talent, he returned to the house in Shanyang County.
“According to the records in the Changling Taoist Temple, only those who have practiced Taoism for five hundred years can be crowned as a real person by imperial decree. Those who have practiced Taoism for a thousand years can still proclaim themselves as true kings even if they do not have a royal title. Those who have practiced Taoism for a thousand years or more can go to famous mountains and rivers to open a sect. Establish a sect. "
"According to my current cultivation speed, it should only take three or four years to reach the level of a true king... Well, let's settle down in Changling Temple for a while, and when I have the strength of a true king, Let’s travel again and find out about Futu Mountain.”
He thought deeply.
Going to Futu Mountain to rescue Xi Lengyan can’t be rushed. He believes that since Xi Lengyan can obtain the blood of Tai Sui and escape all the way to Shanyang County, both her own strength and the identity behind her are definitely not simple. , will not die so easily.
Three days later.
The evil spirit in the ancient well of the house has become thinner.
But Uncle Lingwu was not in a hurry to leave. He stayed for another two days and received the incense money from the county government before leaving with Shen Ping satisfied.
The so-called Dharma Land for Wealthy Couples, no matter what world or practice system, is inseparable from money and currency, and Taoist temples are no exception. Only with strong incense can Taoist temples have the foundation to cultivate disciples and pass on the Taoism.
Back to Changling Temple.
The days became dull and boring again.
In addition to meditating and practicing Taoism every day, I also do various groceries. In the words of Uncle Lingwu, this is called sharpening my state of mind.
However, other disciples, under the leadership of their uncle, went to various places in the Daliang Mountains to slay demons and demons, apparently accelerating the training of disciples in the temple.
So most of the time, the Taoist temple is empty, and the temple owner is often absent.
It’s just that Shen Ping didn’t dare to use the swallowing talent to practice in the Taoist temple carelessly. He didn’t forget that the Taoist temple also has the ancestors. The statues of the ancestors in the ancestor hall are not only the targets of daily worship. , and it is the true foundation of Taoism.
As early as the first day after entering the Changling Temple, his true spirit sensed that there was a huge Yin Qi under the Patriarch's Hall, which should be the blessed place mentioned in the classics.
Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
The debate about the competition among Dao lines in the world as advised by the Great Zhao Guoshi became more and more intense in the court. More than half of the Dao lines opposed it, and even the two powerful Dao lines came forward, which made the Emperor of Zhao hesitate. Make the final decision.
Everyone can see that competition among Taoist temples is a matter of time. After all, there are too many Taoist branches. From the more than 30 branches in Da Zhao Jianguo to more than 200 now, the number of naturalized Taoist priests is even more There are more than 10,000, and as long as they are naturalized Taoist priests, they can enjoy the imperial salary and various tax exemption rights, resulting in the annual revenue of the national treasury decreasing year after year.
Changlingguan Patriarch Hall.
Shen Ping and the other disciples gathered together.
In the past six months, two new disciples and five Taoist boys have been admitted to the temple, sharing a lot of chores, making Shen Ping much more relaxed.
Old rules.
The temple master first took his junior brother Lingwu and his disciples to worship the ancestor, and then got down to business.
"Recently, the number of demons and ghosts has increased in Shanyang County and the villages near Daliang Mountain, endangering the people. As the local lineage of this place, I, the Changling Temple, have the responsibility and obligation to kill demons and eliminate demons, and contribute to the common people of the world. Starting today, the team will be led by Uncle Lingwu and divided into three teams, heading to Daliang Mountain and Shanyang County.”
Then the leader of the Changling Temple began to allocate members, as well as the required spells, talisman swords and other things.
Shen Ping frowned when he heard this.
More than half a year ago, the disciples in the temple were busy everywhere. Why, after half a year, the number of demons and monsters increased.
"Lingzhen, you are good at spells and have followed Lingwu to exorcise evil spirits and destroy ghosts. This time you will lead a team and lead the two new disciples to Shanyang County."
“Yes, Master.”
Before leaving.
The leader of Changling Temple warned: "Lingzhen, when you arrive in Shanyang County, you must act cautiously and don't act too hastily. If you encounter troublesome ghosts, you must protect your junior brothers and sisters as your top priority."
Even Master Lingwu reminded him in a low voice, "Put your own safety first in everything. Don't show off. In addition, you must remember the rules of my chief spirit watch."
Shen Ping kept saying the same thing. , but thinking secretly in his heart, I'm afraid it's not easy to kill demons. Changling Temple itself has the responsibility to protect Shanyang County. Although the Taoist temple may not take the safety of the people as its own responsibility, it so straightforwardly puts its own safety first. , obviously there is something inside.
“Is it related to the dispute in the court?”
He couldn't help but guess.
After simply packing up that day, they took their two junior brothers and sisters to Shanyang County. With the blessing of the divine talisman, the three of them arrived at the county seat in only half an hour.
Before entering the city gate, I encountered a funeral procession. Paper money was scattered on the road, falling with the wind. When I arrived at the city, I saw a desolate and run-down place. In addition to the paper money flying on the street, there were only a few scattered pieces. A passerby in a hurry.
Shanyang County was very prosperous and lively half a year ago, but it has become like this in just half a year.
Shen Ping stopped a passerby and asked a few questions, but the passerby shook his head and kept saying he didn't know. Seeing this, he had no choice but to take his junior brothers and sisters towards the county government office.
Go to the county government street.
Finally gained some popularity.
"Song Putou."
"Taoist Priest Lingzhen, you are finally here."
Song Putou saw Shen Ping and the others as if they had grasped a life-saving straw, and hurriedly Welcoming him into the county government office, he then asked the waiters to bring him delicious food and drinks. Without Shen Ping asking, he told the situation about the county seat like he was pouring beans.
"I don't know what happened in the past two or three months. There have been a series of deaths in the county. I originally thought it was an ordinary murder case, but later I found out that it was haunted, and it wasn't just one or two. It has become more frequent in the past few days. Even the county The Liu family has suffered a lot, and the Liu family has a Taoist priest sitting in charge..."
Song Putou sighed, "If it were an ordinary case, those of us who eat royal food would risk our lives to solve it, but Yin Xie As for ghosts, we have absolutely no choice but to ask you to watch the ghosts. However, I heard from your temple master that Daliang Mountain is not safe and there are many monsters. Now we finally wait for the Taoist Master to come."
"Taoist Master Lingzhen, you must help our county government. The county magistrate is still at Liu's house and cannot greet him in person."
Shen Ping waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, Song Putou, how about we Are you going to visit Liu’s house?”
Song Putou was overjoyed and said, “Taoist Master Lingzhen, I will lead the way.”
The Liu family was a wealthy family in Shanyang County and could influence the county's decision-making. What happened in the house must be more important than other families. Shen Ping naturally understood the meaning of Song Putou's words.
“Senior Brother Lingzhen, can you really drive away ghosts?” the fresh-faced junior sister behind her asked anxiously. She and another disciple of the temple had just started to learn how to use ordinary spells not long after they started. Skill, if you encounter a ghost, you are still powerless.
Shen Ping said casually: "It depends on the situation. If it is an ordinary ghost, it will be fine, but if it is a more powerful one, we should run faster."
"Huh?"
The junior sister's stunned look is quite cute. She is so peaceful that even the junior brother next to her usually doesn't even look at her twice.
All the way to Liu’s house.
A white cloth was hung on the door of the house, and as soon as you entered the threshold, you heard bursts of crying. It seemed that someone had just died in the family.
"He is the third son of Master Liu."
Song Putou whispered and led Shen Ping to the hall.
"County Lord, Mr. Liu, Taoist Priest Lingzhen from Changlingguan is here."
When Master Liu heard that it was Changlingguan, he hurriedly got up and walked to Shen Ping, "Taoist Priest Lingzhen, are you here?" I want to avenge my third son and kill the evil ghost. No matter how much incense money I have, I will give it to him.”
It can be seen that Mr. Liu loves his third son very much.
The county magistrate of Shanyang County also said, "Taoist Priest Lingzhen, please exorcise the ghosts and subjugate them as soon as possible, and give the people of Shanyang a bright future."
Shen Ping was busy. Said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Liu, please rest assured that Lingzhen will do his best."
At this time.
A Taoist priest in Taoist robes walked out of the corner. He snorted coldly: "Why did Changlingguan send three young boys here? You three Taoist disciples can also drive away ghosts?"
As he said that, he faced Mr. Liu and the county magistrate, "In my opinion, it's better to go to Fucheng and invite a real person over as soon as possible."
Song Pu took a few steps forward and said, "Ling Taoist priest Zhen had followed Taoist priest Lingwu to drive away ghosts six months ago."
When Master Liu heard this, he said, "I trust Taoist priest Lingzhen. As for going to Fucheng, we will talk about it later."
The Taoist priest heard the dissatisfaction in Mr. Liu's words, so he said nothing, glanced at Shen Ping, turned around and left the hall.
"Steward Wang, please take Taoist Priest Lingzhen, the others, and Song Putou to the wing to rest for a while, and then tell Taoist Priest Lingzhen about the specific situation in the house in detail."
"Yes. , Master."
Steward Wang immediately made a gesture of invitation, "Priest Lingzhen, Mr. Song, please come with me."
After arriving at the wing.
Butler Wang first asked the maid to serve tea, and then said: "The thing is like this. A few days ago, the third young master brought back a dancing girl who had not served before in Yihong Courtyard. As a result, the dancing girl died that night. The third young master asked the servant to After he was buried, something happened. "
" Taoist priest Lin who was in charge of the house personally fought with the evil spirit, but there was no winner. The evil ghost came every night for the past two days, disturbing the house. Up and down."
Listen.
Shen Ping asked: "So, the evil ghost was a dancing girl before she was alive?"
"Yes."
"According to what Taoist Lin said, the evil ghost is indeed the dancing girl brought back by the third young master. Taoist Master Lingzhen must not be careless. Taoist Lin still has some abilities. He can't do anything about the evil ghost."
Shen Ping nodded. He guessed that the Dao Wang Butler must have concealed something. Otherwise, even if a newly deceased dancer turned into a ghost, she would not be so powerful. Just now in the hall, he used his true spirit to check the cultivation of Daoist Lin. Fang Daoxing Although it is less than a hundred years old, it still has fifty or sixty years of practice, so it is not a problem to deal with ordinary ghosts.
"If you have any needs, Taoist Master Lingzhen, just tell me."
After Butler Wang finished speaking, he left the servants in the house.
Shen Ping began to use mana to make spells, mainly fire spells and thunder spells. Generally, for Taoist priests with low Taoism, the spells must be carried on special paper and ink. If the Taoism is more than three hundred years old, , you can directly use your magic power to condense the magic spell instantly.
He has been cultivating every day for the past six months by devouring his talent, and he has only reached two hundred years of Taoism until now.
Evening time.
The sky has just dimmed.
There were bursts of women’s cries from the Liu Mansion.
“Here he comes, the evil spirit is here!”
Master Liu and his wives and concubines were trembling with fear and hurriedly hid behind Shen Ping.
Song Putou and other Paopai also showed fear on their faces. Only Daochang Lin sneered and crossed his chest, waiting to see the joke. He had fought with the evil ghost and knew the opponent's strength very well.
Boooooooh.
Shen Ping calmly took out the magic spell and pinched the magic formula of "Taiyin Talisman Sutra" in his hand. Suddenly the magic patterns on the spells flickered and lit up, and then quickly flew out and landed out of thin air. The sky above the lotus pond in the backyard of the house.
"Thunder, fire spell, suppress it for me!"
Tsk tsk.
Dozens of spells formed a six-pointed star shape, tightly suppressing the invisible air.
Soon.
A shrill scream came from below the spell, and then a huge amount of Yin Qi burst out from the ghost, instantly destroying the spell.
“Stinky Taoist priest, you are colluding with the Liu family, go to hell!”
The evil ghost manifested a ferocious figure and rushed towards Shen Ping.
However, Shen Ping ignored it. He turned his eyes and stared at Master Liu's concubine behind him. He said calmly: "You have gained such strength in just a few days. Tell me, what kind of power is behind you?" ?”
The concubine said with a bitter face, “Taoist priest, what are you talking about?”
Pfft!
The talisman sword was chopped down directly.
The concubine's face suddenly changed, and suddenly she turned into a large ball of stinking pus, but her body flew out.
Shen Ping threw a few spells to calm the hall, "Song Putou, protect Mr. Liu and the others, don't leave this hall."
Leave one sentence.
He chased after her, and after a cup of tea, he chased her outside the county town.
“Stinky Taoist priest, you are so courageous that you dare to chase me.”
The ghost turned around, with a charming and charming face, and was only wearing a translucent gauze dress. Under the night wind, its figure could be vaguely seen.
"A ghost that can condense the Yin body must have practiced Taoism for at least a hundred years. What is your purpose of dressing up as a dancer to harm the Liu family?"
Shen Ping asked calmly.
The ghost smiled and said: "Of course it is to attract you, the spiritual master."
"Oh, what do you mean?"
"Taoist Master Lingzhen seems to have a bad memory. Half a year ago, you must have met Chunxiang, the maid next to Gui Ji, and she gave you the blood Tai Sui."
