Zhong Shenxiu found a seat and sat down. He did not drink the spiritual tea here. When he heard Zhang Taiyi being talked about next to him, he couldn't help but smile in his heart.
They still wanted to find this person, but they were afraid they would have to die first before they could find him.
"No matter what, Zhang Taiyi has a decent background. As long as he doesn't provoke him, he won't kill easily. Although the Fufeng Protector's Mansion is remote, it is also a paradise."
The old man smoking a dry cigarette faintly blew out a smoke ring, causing the smoke to turn into shapes such as white cranes, dragons and tigers, flowers, plants and trees, and suddenly sighed.
"Sigh... No, China has not been at peace recently. The Underworld Demon Sect has been born. This sect is one of the six paths of the Demon Sect. Since it has come out, the other five paths will not be too far away... In this world, I am afraid that... chaos."
"Our Luozhou is just a small state, but a lot of things have happened recently, such as the Black Lotus Sect!" A swordsman in blue lowered his voice.
"The storm is coming... But when that time comes, the worst is that I will seek refuge with the government and become a Taoist official. Although there are some restrictions, I will always have a backer. I am afraid that if I join the government, I will be directly used as cannon fodder... "
The old man said and everyone nodded.
When Zhong Shenxiu heard this, an official document appeared in his mind.
"In the summer of the sixth year of Wucheng's reign, in the Fufeng Protector's Mansion, there was a demonic trick that killed seventeen members of a family. Afterwards, only a black lotus seal was left... The Taoist official investigated and found that the real murderer had escaped into Suotian Pass, and was specially ordered to investigate... …”
This was a mission he received, and it was said to be related to a sect created by a branch of the Demon Sect.
The superiors didn't ask him to die, they just asked for information.
Now it seems that this Black Lotus Sect is just right.
The bell god showed his eyes and nose, and his nose looked at his heart, without any intention of asking for advice.
"Follow it now. Can you complete the mission and come back? I'm not stupid. Of course I will procrastinate as long as I can... I won't hand in the mission even if I complete it."
"Besides, there might be some deep holes in this sect, but don't bury me. Just pretend you didn't hear it..."
He sat quietly and watched everyone show off.
At the end, the voices in Banyue Hall gradually became silent.
The old man smoking glanced at Zhong Shenxiu and said with a smile: "This fellow Taoist is a bit unfamiliar. I am a hookah smoker. I am half a landlord here. Don't you know?"
"Hua Wu, a casual cultivator, wants to come here to get some evil spirit."
Zhong Shenxiu said politely.
"Haha... The reason why everyone is holding this gathering is to exchange knowledge. If we don't refine Gangsha and just practice by ourselves, it will be too difficult..."
The hookah smoker took a puff of dry tobacco: "I wonder what kind of evil spirit you want to exchange for, fellow Taoist?"
"Dragons and tigers mix evil spirits!"
Zhong Shenxiu said what he wanted most.
"Hiss... this kind of evil spirit is indeed difficult to find."
The hookah smoker narrowed his eyes: "I know an earth connection point that may have such evil aura. I wonder what fellow Taoist would be willing to give in exchange?"
"Oh? Really?"
Zhong Shenxiu's eyes lit up, and he waved his hand and took out three gourds: "Here are two Xuan Yin evil spirits and one Jiutian Gang energy. If the information from fellow Taoist is true, you can choose any one."
"Tsk tsk!"
The hookah's eyes lit up, and many casual cultivators around him cast incomprehensible glances.
"Dao Youyou has a good fortune. This Xuan Yin Sha is extremely difficult to find, and the Nine Heavenly Gang Qi is located thousands of feet high in the sky. It cannot be obtained without a major repair." He deliberately emphasized the tone of the last sentence: "It seems that the elders of Dao You's disciples have amazing magical powers."
This is to remind others that this Hua Wu seems to have some background and not to be blinded by benefits.
"It's just a chance."
In fact, this Nine Heavenly Gangqi is a by-product of absorbing Qingling Fengsha, but the hookah's idea is not wrong.
Being able to obtain such Tiangang Qi, it is obvious that all kinds of people can be related to magical monks. Their backgrounds are very tough, and something will happen if they bump into them.
"I am old and inexperienced, but I have taken a fancy to this Nine Heavenly Gang Qi."
The hookah smoker stood up and put away his pipe: "It's just a piece of news, I may not be able to reach it, I can only accompany my fellow Taoist on a trip."
"It seems like that place is a bit dangerous?" Zhong Shenxiu said clearly.
"Yes, there is a ground in Mangdang Mountain called Tiger Dragon Cave. There was once a tiger demon entrenched in it. Later, it died together with a snake demon, forming a desert land that gave birth to many spiritual creatures. Later, it was killed by a crow spirit. Occupy, that crow’s flight is extinct, hard to deal with.”
The hookah man smiled and said: "But it's okay to drive it away for a while and let fellow Taoists collect dragons and tigers."
"That's it, thank you very much."
Zhong Shenxiu nodded and walked out of Fangshi with the hookah smoker.
With his big sleeves fluttering, he flew up. The hookah sighed in admiration, took out a gourd with a smile, sat on it, and led the way.
…
Outside the Tiger Dragon Cave.
A group of ordinary warriors, wearing straw hats and powdered medicine on their bodies, carefully hid several miles away.
In front of them is a trap.
"Brother, will this spirit fox really come out? I always feel that this matter is dangerous... If the spirit fox was easy to catch, it would have been captured long ago. Who will get us?"
A man in black crawled forward a few steps, came to the other person's side, and lowered his voice.
"I know it too, but in order to impress the immortal master, this is the only thing suitable."
This man's appearance is somewhat similar to that of Xu Shaoling. He is probably his father. He has a determined look on his face at this time: "After my many investigations, I found that the spirit fox has taken refuge in a monster and is under its protection. The front is its lair, so we must not go to capture it." , we can only set up traps, hoping to lure the spirit fox out."
"If we're not careful and attract monsters, we'll all be doomed."
The man in black had a solemn face: "But for Shaoling, we will risk our lives, eh?"
With sharp eyes, he saw a white shadow emerging not far away, wandering around the trap. It turned out to be a small white fox.
"Notice."
The leading man lowered his voice and hid a little deeper, his heart full of anticipation.
Boom!
At this moment, a thunderous sound suddenly came from high in the sky.
The fox was frightened by this and fled away like the wind, disappearing without a trace.
"No!"
The man in black wailed and was about to jump up to chase after him, but was held tightly by his brother.
"look!"
Following the other person's finger, he looked up at the sky and couldn't help but be stunned.
I saw two people standing in the mid-air. One was standing in the air and the other was riding a gourd. They were both cultivators.
"Meet the Immortal Master."
They immediately knelt down and saluted, but no one in the sky looked down upon them.
"Look, fellow Taoist, this is the monster."
The hookah man pointed at the Tiger Dragon Cave, and a huge black demonic bird flew out of the cave. With its wings spread out, it was almost ten feet wide. It was full of demonic aura and fierce.
"This monster is a crow turned into a spirit. It is good at flying and has fire feathers. It is very difficult to deal with. It is old and incompetent. It can hold it back for three sticks of incense. Whether you can get the evil spirit depends on you, fellow Taoist."
The hookah man stroked his beard and prepared to take action.
puff!
At this moment, he saw Hua Wuyi raise his hand and release a sword light.
The sword light was extremely sharp, like a white rainbow, piercing through the crow spirit.
The crow screamed, and the fire feathers around it were unable to stop it at all. The sword light was too fast and it had no time to fly away. It was killed by the sword and fell down.
The hookah smoker was stunned for a long time, then turned his head numbly and looked at Zhong Shenxiu.
"Is this the bird demon? Wouldn't it be more convenient to get the things after killing it?"
Zhong Shenxiu raised his hand to recall the Poison Dragon Sword and answered with a chuckle.
