Chapter 139 How to Top Incense


Chapter 139: The Method of Top Incense
The thick grass underfoot submerged the path, and the view stretched far away, and the towering trees were lush with leaves. Even if you were rushing on the road at noon, you could not help but feel a bit suffocating. Depressed.

I heard from the apprentice named Liu Sheng that it was like this in the wild. As long as no one walked there, even the rugged places would soon become overgrown with weeds.

I think it's all because of the four immortal families.

It is worth mentioning that according to the usual procedure, after Xiangtou finished reading the matter, the person involved had to arrange a flowing banquet.

But when Lu Bai relayed the words of Master Bai Si to Uncle Tao, the old Xiangtou immediately decided to take Lu Bai and several apprentices back to the county town without even resting too much in the village.

Lu Bai didn't have any objections at first. Anyway, he didn't remember much about that village.

However, when he was on his way, he learned about Master Bai Si's status in the world from Uncle Tao, and he vaguely felt that there was something strange about what happened last night.

It's enough that two Hu Clan fairies suddenly appeared to cause trouble. The question is, don't those two fox fairies know that this is Master Bai Si's territory?

Moreover, when he saw that Uncle Tao summoned Master Bai Si through his spiritual power, he still refused to run away and even dared to fight back.

This is a bit too reckless.

Unfortunately, the information he could understand was still too little. Lu Bai thought about it for a while and couldn't find a reasonable explanation, so he just assumed that the two fox fairies were crazy.

As the group goes deeper into the forest, they will notice that the surroundings become increasingly quiet, and the chirping of birds and insects gradually becomes fainter.

Lu Bai inexplicably felt that there were more prying eyes in the dark forest.

Uncle Tao walked at the front. Without saying anything, he silently took out a stick of incense from his bag and lit it.

He bowed in all directions: "Enemies, don't look up until you meet down, and save each other's face."

As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of rustling movement around.

After a while, the feeling of being spied on disappeared.

Uncle Tao looked at Lu Bai, waved for everyone to continue following him, and explained in a low voice: "Don't look at the prestige of Xiang Chai like us in front of the villagers. It's mainly because of the power of Master Bai. Don't go there anytime." If you encounter evil spirits, you still have to talk to others about etiquette first. "

Lu Bai nodded, but then felt something was wrong.

Why are you telling me this?

Uncle Tao has been working as a perfumer for so many years, and his eyesight is still very good. He could see Lu Bai's doubts at a glance.

He immediately said with a smile: "I think I know Mr. Bai Si fairly well, but I have never seen him so anxious to meet someone. It won't be long before we become colleagues."

In fact, it is easy to understand.

Since Master Bai didn't kill Lu Bai when he was at the scene, and his attitude was so good, besides, Lu Bai didn't know Master Bai before.

Then it was obvious what Lu Bai was going to do.

"Master Bai Si is not as good as you, isn't he?" Lu Bai stroked his chin.

"I can't do it alone."

Uncle Tao said cheerfully.

In fact, most of the profound immortal families have more than one Xiang Chai.

The surrounding villages are indeed managed by Uncle Tao.

But Master Bai Si’s territory is far more than just a few villages.

Their Taoist temples are all located in the county town, and they have jurisdiction over dozens of villages, large and small.

Therefore, Master Bai Si currently has more than 20 Xiangcha at his disposal.

One more and one less will have no effect on other fragrance differences.

After all, they were not able to borrow all the magic power of Master Bai Si, and at most they would easily conflict when channeling the gods.

But the problem is that most of the fragrances are good but not very fragrant. When they are confused, there are only a handful of them.

Lu Bai nodded thoughtfully.

He knew that his talent should be considered very good, but he was still somewhat repelled by the Immortal Family. Even though he knew that Mr. Bai Sisi had a good temper and kept everyone safe when the world was in chaos, he still couldn't accept that his body was taken over by the Xian family.

Walking in the dark woods, the perception of time and space will become blurred.

It was already approaching dusk when Lu Bai followed Uncle Tao and his three apprentices out of the woods.

But there is no need to worry about rushing at night, a small county town is already in front of you.

"It's just ahead."

Uncle Tao waved his hand and motioned for everyone to speed up.

Along the road extending from the gate of the county town, Lu Bai quickly followed.

It should be said that Lu Bai felt that Uncle Tao did not teach the three apprentices any real skills, but they only trained their feet very well.

After not sleeping all night and then driving for such a long time, the three apprentices still looked so energetic.

The city gate guard obviously knew Uncle Tao, the incense head, and nodded. He didn't even bother to check and let the group of people enter the city.

Under the leadership of Uncle Tao, the group walked straight towards the Bai Shiye Dojo in the center of the county.

Probably because Mr. Bai Si was in charge, the business in the city was quite prosperous. There were all kinds of hawking sounds along the way, and it was rare to encounter lifeless passers-by.

These rare human fireworks made Lu Bai relax a lot after walking in the woods for a long time.

The dojo of Master Bai Si is a mansion, with a vermilion door that looks like a wealthy family.

Dong~dong~dong~
Uncle Tao picked up the ring on the door leaf and started knocking it rhythmically.

Soon, the door opened out of thin air.

Uncle Tao immediately led his three apprentices to bow respectfully.

Then he turned to Lu Bai and said, "Master Bai Si is inside, come with me."

The three apprentices stopped outside the gate. On the one hand, they were not qualified to see the Fourteenth Master Bai.

On the other hand, it also prevents passive “detachment”.

On the way here, Uncle Tao briefly told Lu Bai the process of becoming a Xiangtou.

This process consists of three steps, namely, taking the method, transitioning into it, and opening the top.

To put it simply, a separation ceremony is performed first to separate from the original group or environment.

This detachment process is called "taking the method". People at this stage will suffer from sudden illness, which usually manifests as coma, fever, talking nonsense, etc. In short, they will see strange things or behave abnormally.

The problem is that frequent contact with immortals can easily lead to this symptom, which is considered a passive disengagement.

The vast majority of people simply cannot withstand this stage and will either die or go crazy. It is best to have less contact.

Of course, the better the talent, the milder this performance will be.

For example, Uncle Tao only returned to normal after vomiting and diarrhea for three days. He is a type with very good talent.

The yard was quiet and empty, but it was cleaned cleanly.

The two of them walked in tandem and walked into the lobby.

The incense altar is placed in the middle of the lobby. Fruits and vegetables are placed in front of the shrine, and faint green smoke rises from three pillars of incense.

Lu Bai's attention quickly focused on a colorful painting.

This portrait hangs above the shrine. It shows a middle-aged man sitting cross-legged on a futon, with a round face and a silly smile, like Maitreya Buddha.
