Chapter 128 What’s left behind
After leaving the deserted village and walking for another day, Zuo Chen and Caiyi were now very close to the dense forest.
Judging from the map, there is a small city next to the Great Jungle, called Linsen. It was originally a checkpoint specially set up by King Wei, mainly to monitor the many people coming in and out of the Great Jungle.
After all, the soldiers at the checkpoint need to be raised by farmers. There is a long distance between here and Dongshui. It is unrealistic to just rely on caravans and carriages to transport them back and forth. It just so happened that there were many birds and animals in the shallow area of the large dense forest, and the soil was quite fertile, so farmers were sent over to build a village here to provide food.
As time passed, the wall was erected, and it became such a small town.
Seeing that it would take some time to reach the city, Zuo Chen reached out and picked up the backpack placed next to him.
This was left by Tang Qi before he died, and was placed in a relatively complete wooden house in the village.
I haven’t looked at it since I took it out.
Zuo Chen did not open it directly, but handed the backpack to Cai Yi's hand.
Caiyi was stunned for a moment, then opened the lid with his hands.
There are some simple objects placed here, two thin books, a mask, and a wooden sign.
Caiyi first picked up the mask and played with it in his hand. He found that there was a buckle under the mask. With a slight touch, the entire mask would change immediately.
It is an object commonly used by flower-faced men, and it should be full of face-changing skills.
Put it away carefully.
Picked up the wooden sign and looked at it again, and found that it was just an ordinary sign, but it had the three characters "You Changqing" engraved on it.
I felt it for a while, but I didn't find any unique abilities, and I don't know what it does. Maybe it's just a brand that represents identity.
Just put it aside for now.
Finally, I took out the two books and found that there was no word written on one of the covers, while the other had the words "Celestial Master's Fragmentary Scroll" written in a large golden pen.
However, for some reason, when Caiyi touched the fragment of the Celestial Master's scroll, she suddenly felt uneasy. She subconsciously shook her hand, and the book fell directly onto the donkey cart. .
Zuo Chen also frowned slightly.
He didn't feel anything when he put it in the bamboo basket just now. Now that it was taken out, he also noticed that there seemed to be an unpleasant and familiar aura in the fragments of the Celestial Master.
It seems to be exactly the same as the red Taoist in the wilderness before!
"Caiyi, let me take a look."
Caiyi nodded, suppressed his nausea, picked up the book by a corner, and put it on the left Chen's hand.
Zuo Chen also opened it and started reading.
When the page of the book was opened, Zuo Chen frowned tightly. He could feel a strong and disgusting breath coming from it.
Although the amount is extremely small, the purity is even better than that of the red Taoist at that time!
Looking at the contents, I suddenly found a line of small words written by Tang Qi on the front page:
"Caiyi saw that this is the remains of the capital. It contains the truth of heaven, but it also contains If you want to learn from the inner demons, please learn from the Taoist master first.”
Looking inside again, I found a cultivation method with various magical powers for performing tricks on the street.
Obviously, Tang Qi learned this.
According to the poem Tang Qi sang at that time, he should have gone to Kyoto, and by chance, he obtained part of the capital's inheritance, which was this cultivation method.
He practiced according to this cultivation method, spent so many years, and became half a land god.
Zuo Chen turned over the handprints, and the more he looked at them, the more he frowned.
The core cultivation methods in the entire book are very similar to his Taoist scriptures, and even large sections of text are the same. However, there are a few keywords with a thick black air above them, and a few lines have been changed. , or even a few words, the entire cultivation method is completely different from the original Taoist scriptures.
If you continue to practice according to this book, what you will cultivate is not the Dao mind at all, but the devil mind!
No wonder at the beginning, Tang Qi marked a sentence that contained layers of demonic thoughts. It seemed that by the end of the training, he had realized that something was wrong with this thing.
If you continue to practice according to this cultivation method, your mind will naturally be affected. This is the chapter on the cultivation of demons in the heart of the Tao. The scriptures start from evil and give birth to inner demons. As a result, it goes around and around. First, it comes out of a The flower-faced man who practiced magic skills came up with another soup beggar.
But why is this Taoist scripture like this?
Zuo Chen felt a strong sense of weight as his fingertips slightly traced the blackened fonts.
Vaguely, Zuo Chen seemed to see a huge black wave rolling into the sky.
There was a flash of lightning in his eyes, and the black wave disappeared immediately.
As if feeling something in his heart, Zuo Chen turned his head slightly and looked towards the far north.
He heard the sound of the waves.
He also heard the sound of painful wailing.
What he saw just now was the tip of the ocean of suffering.
The huge waves surge into the sky, causing all living beings to rise and fall.
Just looking at the thick malice, it is impossible to tell how many creatures it has devoured.
He just snorted coldly, picked up the scripture, and blew it gently above it.
The aura of bitter sea clinging to the top disappeared.
The handwriting that had been covered up and modified also returned to its original appearance. Looking at it again, it was not much different from the ideas in my Taoist scriptures.
After doing this, he checked again and found that there were no major problems, then Zuo Chen handed the scripture to Cai Yi.
“Let’s practice accordingly. If you don’t understand anything, just ask me.”
Caiyi took the book seriously.
Looking at Cai Yi’s appearance, Zuo Chen remained silent for a moment and said:
"Caiyi, there are some problems before practicing this technique, which makes it easy for people to become possessed."
"Huh?" Caiyi was slightly startled: "Taoist Master, you are saying..."
" What do you think? "
Zuo Chen didn't reply, just asked Caiyi.
Caiyi was silent for a long time.
I also thought about it for a long time. "I think that the old man's condition may not have much to do with this Taoist scripture."
"How to say?"
"The past life will have an impact. To shape a person, perhaps the skills he practices can indeed make people fall into the devil's path, but if the world is peaceful enough, he will not even have the opportunity to come into contact with this Taoist scripture."
"Then what do you want to do. Do?”
Hearing Zuo Chen ask this question, Cai Yi's eyes finally regained their color.
“The world is in turmoil now. Although I don’t have the ability of a Taoist priest, I still feel that those who kill people are wrong. If the world is peaceful and peaceful, at least there won’t be so many ghosts in the world.
“Since I was born in troubled times, I have only heard about the bright world from the storyteller. Although I don't know what it is, I feel that it must be an excellent place.
"I want to work hard. Regardless of whether I can succeed in this life, at least if I have a child in the future, I hope she can see that peaceful and prosperous age."
"Good." Zuo Chen smiled. Nodding.
Putting away the practice method carefully, Caiyi picked up the book and there was no pamphlet on the cover.
A little confused, I opened it.
But I found that this is a dense roster.
"Qiu Shanguo, whose original name is Zhang Bai, is from Huai Town, Jingzhou. He likes to walk around the hall, is good at changing his identity, and can curse people."
"Mo Ask for Directions, whose original name is Luo 1. A native of Dacheng, Qingzhou, Xiao Huanxi walks around the hall and is good at getting information..."
All the information about these people is written in detail on the top of the entire roster, what they are good at, where they live, what their original names are, and what their status is among Xiao Huanxi. Some of them are even accompanied by a small painting.
Caiyi was slightly dazed, and then gave Zuo Chen a look at this thing.
After just one glance, Zuo Chen's expression became a little strange.
This thing can basically be regarded as the lifeblood of Xiao Huanxi!
Tang Qi said before that he was tricked by Xiao Huanxi’s boss, so he had to go to the gambling village to form a formation. This means that Ming Xiao Huanxi is actually similar to Don’t Forget, and he has a lot of expectations for himself. Hostile sect.
This group of people mainly plays tricks and cheats. They huddle in the dark and mess around like mosquitoes, which is annoying.
Well now, with such a roster in hand, most of the members of Xiao Huanxi basically fell off their horses in front of Zuo Chen.
Isn’t this...
One slap in the face?
Looking back again, I found that there were three people like this on the last page.
"The Flower-faced Man, whose original name is Tang Qi, is from Hongtou County, Xuzhou. He is a small joy with a long Qingqing on his right side. He is a half-step god on earth and is good at acting."
"The Smiling Face Buddha, whose original name is unknown and his birthplace is unknown. Little Huanxi Zuo Changqing, half-step land god, good and evil Dharma, Dharma. "
"Little Huanxi boss, bitch"
Although there is no specific information marked on the side of the Smiling Buddha. There is indeed a small painting, and you can tell that he is a fat monk with a soft face and a smile that always smiles.
As for the little Huanxi boss who is called a bitch, he has nothing. It seems that even Tang Qi cannot get his real information.
But even so, it will not reduce the preciousness of this book.
"Taoist Master, can this be used?"
Caiyi asked.
Zuo Chen nodded:
“Of course it will be useful.”
...
After entering the Linsen City checkpoint, you are faced with a lively street.
There are mostly wooden houses on the left and right sides of the road, but they are all elegant enough. The street vendors here mainly sell meat and fruits, supplemented by grain and food. Some cloth and clothing shops sell footwear stalls. Most people just set up a few racks on both sides of the road, hang their clothes and let them float in the wind.
You can tell just at a glance how much influence this large dense forest has on Linsen. Almost every household depends on this forest for their livelihood.
The strange combination of Zuo Chen and Caiyi did attract the attention of many people after entering the town. There are few strange people in this small town, and Taoist priests riding donkeys are naturally rare, but they Most of them just glanced at them and then withdrew their gaze, minding their own business.
Zuo Chen looked around and saw that it was already getting late, so he patted Lord Donkey on the head and pointed towards the small restaurant next to him.
Master Donkey immediately understood and stepped towards that direction.
When I arrived outside the tavern, I saw a shed at the door with several horses parked, and there was even a servant who took care of it here.
Zuo Chen got off the donkey cart and went in with Caiyi. When the boy saw him leaving the donkey cart here, he rolled his eyes at him and muttered to himself:
"If you leave this stupid donkey here, you won't be afraid of being bullied by these uncles!"
After talking about it, I was about to continue feeding the horses with hay, but suddenly I found that the horses seemed to have seen a scourge and couldn't help but shrink back.
The young man felt strange in his heart. He looked sideways and realized that what these uncles seemed to be avoiding was none other than the man who was pulling the donkey.
I couldn't help but be surprised.
What a donkey, it can scare a horse like this!
After entering the restaurant, I found that it was not too lively. There were not many people eating, and even the waiter was listless.
On the other hand, there was a group of warriors at the table next to them, drinking and eating meat and discussing things loudly, in a lively manner.
The horses outside are theirs.
I greeted the waiter and asked for a pot of tea and some snacks. The two of them were waiting here.
Beside that at this moment, a group of warriors seemed to have had enough wine. One of them lowered his voice and said to his companions:
"Have you heard? The Shouge Pavilion was raped by someone. Destroyed!”
Please give me monthly tickets, grandpas!
