Liao Zhai alchemist

Chapter 408
In the afternoon, Zhang Wei was not in the mood to sleep either, so he began to ask how Ma Jun died.

His death made him feel a little uneasy.

I asked several Taoist boys who were familiar with Ma Jun, but they also didn't know anything about it.Ma Jun is good at making money and won't offend people easily.He rarely gets into trouble.

Finally, after asking several Taoist boys who were onlookers at the scene of the incident, Zhang Wei vaguely had an idea.

Last night, his and Ma Jun's shifts were actually switched.

He was supposed to be on duty for the first half of the night, and Ma Jun was supposed to be on duty for the second half of the night.But these days Ma Jun really can't stand it anymore, he will be too sleepy in the second half of the night, so he won't be able to stand it anymore.

So he discussed changing shifts with Zhang Wei. He watched the night in the middle of the night and then went to sleep.And Zhang Wei went to watch the night in the middle of the night, and when he finished his night watch, he came to call him to do morning classes.

This is their private transfer, and the Gongde Palace is out of control, anyway, it's fine if someone watches the night.But in the Gongde Palace, the order of their night patrols was still Zhang Wei in the first half of the night and Ma Jun in the second half of the night.

Zhang Wei guessed that Hou Yong was probably one of the two brothers who fought that night.He came to find the treasure bag.He found the list of night watchmen on that line, and then found Ma Jun.

Of course Ma Jun didn't know anything at all, and then he was beaten to death by this disbelieving brother!

In other words, Ma Jun saved Zhang Wei from death...

Thinking about this, Zhang Wei's face was very ugly.This Ma Jun is unlucky, but it doesn't mean that Hou Yong won't suspect him!

Someone like Hou Yong must have killed someone by mistake!Because it's not just Hou Yong, even he himself will do the same!
"What should we do?" Zhang Wei couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

But fortunately, there are still rules in Xinghuangguan. Hou Yong killed Ma Jun by 'missing'. Although he was a senior disciple and killed an insignificant junior disciple, he would still be punished.He should have to be driven to the outside to do a few dangerous disciplinary missions before being released.

There is a price to kill, but Hou Yong can afford this price.But as short as one month, as long as three to five months, this Hou Yong will definitely come back.At that time, Zhang Wei will be in trouble!

"It's better to die outside!" Zhang Wei cursed him bitterly.Although this is what he said, Zhang Wei also knows that it is very unrealistic to pin everything on such illusory things!
As night fell, Zhang Wei began to patrol with a full heart.

He's going to be on tour all night tonight.Thinking of this, his mood got worse.

The first lap, safe and sound.After greeting other night watchmen in the rear hall, Zhang Wei continued to patrol.

On the second lap, nothing happened.Continue to greet other night watchmen in the back hall.

On the third lap, on the third lap, something went wrong!

Watching the night is a very bad job. If you often walk by the river without getting your shoes wet, anyone who encounters a ghost is a night watchman!

On the third lap, Zhang Wei waited in the back hall for a while, but he didn't wait for another night watchman!The routes of the two are different, but they will meet here after all.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Zhang Wei's heart sank, knowing that something might have happened to this person.According to the regulations, if the meeting time exceeds a quarter of an hour, it needs to be reported!
Zhang Wei quickly knocked on the small gong on his waist.

The sound of "Dangdangdang" spread out at once.Not long after, the two senior brothers rushed over and stopped in front of Zhang Wei.

"What happened? Why did the gong sound?" a brother asked in a deep voice.

Zhang Wei hurriedly said: "Brother, I am a Taoist boy who watches the night. The other brother who was supposed to meet me here has not arrived yet. According to the regulations, I should sound the gong to warn."

Zhang Wei acted according to the rules, the two brothers nodded and said, "Which road is he patrolling?"

"It's the Western Front." Zhang Wei returned.Zhang Wei patrolled the Eastern Front.In addition, there are northern and southern routes.But those two lines don't meet here.

The two senior brothers nodded, and then they said, "You go to patrol first." After speaking, they moved towards the western front.

Zhang Wei will continue to patrol, no matter what happened to that brother, his patrol cannot stop.

Not long after I left.When Zhang Wei passed by a house, he suddenly saw a shadow floating into the house!

Zhang Wei was startled, because he had already seen the shadow floating in!This is a piao!He touched the Cowardly Ghost Talisman in his arms, and then sneaked over.

He needs to be sure, and if he's not sure and hits the gong, he'll still be beaten.Although you can sail for thousands of years with care, if you are too careful, you will be beaten up.

After sneaking up, he saw that figure go directly through the wall.

Can go through walls!This must be a ghost!Zhang Wei cheered up, the target has been determined, it's time to warn!

As he thought about it, he immediately rang the gong around his waist again!

The voice of "Dangdangdang" sounded, and then Zhang Wei also started to shout: "Ghost invasion! Brothers, be careful!"

Ghosts are best at absorbing people's yang energy through their mouths and noses when they are asleep.They will lie on people's bodies, like kissing, and stick to your mouth and nose to absorb Yang Qi.

At this time, the person will feel that the body is compressed and it is difficult to breathe.This is the so-called 'ghost press'.And after being absorbed by the ghost, the person will be listless the next day, as if he had indulged too much.

This kind of situation is still good, it shows that this ghost knows how to control, it means that this ghost knows how to raise people to smoke, and what the ghost knows is sustainable development.

And in the deep mountains and old forests, there are some ghosts who haven't seen a person once in half a year. If they catch a living person, they will suck it up once and for all, directly sucking up the person's yang energy, and sucking the person to death!
There are few people in the deep mountains and old forests, and ghosts don't pay attention to sustainable development. Who knows if this person will come again next time, so they just suck it up all at once!
Therefore, in order to prevent Yang Qi from being absorbed, the best way is to wake up everyone.

But after waking everyone up, there is also a problem. If the ghost becomes angry, it will kill someone!

The sound of Zhang Wei's gongs, drums and shouts directly awakened the Taoist boy in this house.The lights of these houses were quickly lit up one by one, and people shouted.

The kid who sneaked up could no longer hide at last!

He was illuminated by the light, and his phantom body appeared in front of everyone.The next moment, he screamed suddenly, and everyone covered their heads and couldn't stand still!

This is the magic of ghosts!This scream can shake ordinary souls, at worst it can make them lose consciousness, and at mildest levels it can make them dizzy.

And taking advantage of this dizzy opportunity, the ghost grabbed a Taoist boy, and the ghost's claws pierced through his chest, grabbed a warm heart and ate it!

The hot blood in the heart is the place that contains the most yang energy.Now I don't have a chance to inhale slowly, I can only quickly swallow my heart's blood and plunder the yang energy!

This time, all the Taoist boys turned pale with fright.

Dao Tong, after all, is still an ordinary person, how can ordinary people deal with ghosts and goblins.

At this moment, a shout came from a distance: "Naughty animal! How dare you attack the person I watch!"

Even faster than this sound was a rushing sound.There was a sound of piercing through the air, and this person appeared on the scene immediately, and the long sword in his hand slashed at the ghost!

The ghost screamed and wanted to repeat the old trick.

But the monk in front of him is not an ordinary person, his spirit is much more stable, even after eating this scream, he can continue to kill the ghost without changing his face.

The next moment, the long sword cut off one of the ghost's hands, and continued to chop off the ghost's head!
The ghost was also scared, and immediately jumped towards the side, passed through the wall and ran away!

Ghosts go through walls, that's instinct!
When the disciple saw it, he immediately made a seal with one hand, and shouted: "Wall piercing technique!" After his words fell, he also slammed his head against the wall.

In an instant, he also passed through the wall and chased after the ghost!

Seeing this, Zhang Wei felt a little envious in his heart.Although this wall piercing technique is a relatively simple technique, it takes a lot of time to practice to achieve the same number as this senior.

I heard that there is a Taoist of the Laoshan School who has learned this spell for three years but is not proficient in it, and sometimes it doesn't work.Going home and performing it in front of his wife, he failed, bumped himself into a big bag, and made his wife laugh out loud!

The senior brother chased the ghost and left, and the Taoist boy here also started to clean up the mess.The Daoist whose chest had been ripped out was obviously hopeless...

Zhang Wei shook his head, and then he continued to patrol.He still has responsibilities.

For the next time, Zhang Wei was not in any danger.If you can still meet ghosts, then there is no need for this Apricot Yellow Temple to exist...

At dawn, two senior brothers found Zhang Wei and asked him about last night's patrol. They said: "Last night, that ghost not only killed the disciples who were patrolling the night, but also killed the disciples in a house." But fortunately, you warned in time and did not cause more damage."

He patted Zhang Wei on the shoulder and said, "This achievement will be recorded in the gate."

After saying this, the two senior brothers left.

After dawn, Zhang Wei continued to attend morning class with his tired body.After playing "Yellow Apricot Healthy Skills" once, the discipline brother came to his side and said, "Have you made a breakthrough?"

Zhang Wei was taken aback for a moment, then pretended to be stupid and said, "I was promoted?"

The teacher brother nodded and said, "Yes, you were at the second level yesterday, but today you are at the third level. This means you have been promoted. You are very sleepy? What did you do?"

Having said that, he frowned.

Zhang Wei quickly said, "I am a night watchman disciple."

After hearing this explanation, Brother Guan frowned.Then he looked Zhang Wei up and down and said, "Are you the disciple who warned the police last night?"

Zhang Wei immediately said, "It's right here."

The brother smiled and said, "Sure enough, you came into close contact with the ghost last night. Your yang energy was stimulated by the ghost's yin energy, and you broke through. You are a bit lucky."

Zhang Wei was taken aback when he heard this, and said, "Can this also lead to promotion?"

The brother nodded and said, "Seeing how courageous you were last night, let me tell you a few words." He paused, and continued: "As the saying goes, a lonely yin does not grow, and a single yang does not grow. "Yellow Apricot Health Care" nourishes yang qi. Over the years, there will always be some yang qi accumulated in the body, while ghosts are yin qi. When this yang qi is stimulated by yin qi, it activates the yang qi in your body, so The promotion is not surprising."

Although Zhang Wei knew that he was talking nonsense, the truth was the same.He also nodded thoughtfully.At this time, he suddenly asked: "If this is the case, then if you tie a ghost by your side to practice, wouldn't the speed be very fast?"

As soon as his words came out, he saw the senior brother looking at him with a half-smile.

Brother Guan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Young man, your thinking is very dangerous! This is evil way."

Then the corners of his mouth curled up, and he whispered in Zhang Wei's ear, "The way is evil, but it is feasible." After speaking, he patted Zhang Wei's shoulder, and went on to watch others practice.

Zhang Wei looked at this senior brother, thoughtful in his heart.

At the end of the morning class, Zhang Wei did not go back to sleep, but followed the senior for a while.

After walking too far, the senior brother turned around and said, "What's the matter? Senior brother, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Zhang Wei hurried up and said, "Please brother help me."

"Help you? Help with what?"

"Brother was joking, you patted me on the shoulder, didn't you just ask me to find you after class?"

The senior was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Zhang Wei's serious expression, and suddenly laughed!

"Hahaha, you are really interesting." He paused, and then said, "Then come with me."

After speaking, he took Zhang Wei to a separate room.This teacher brother is called Long Tuan, and he is a middle-level Taoist.

He asked Zhang Wei to sit down, and said to Zhang Wei: "Do you want to use ghosts to cultivate? You must know that this method is extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be killed by ghosts. Even if you don't die, stay with ghosts for a long time Yes, that will also affect the soul."

Zhang Wei nodded and said, "I understand all of this. I just want to know if my brother has a solution?"

Long Tuan smiled, and then said: "You are already 17 years old, and you still have a year to go. If you can't be promoted to a low-level Taoist, then you have no chance."

Zhang Wei nodded and said, "Please brother teach me."

Long Tuan stared at Zhang Wei for a while, only to see that Zhang Wei's heart was trembling.He suddenly said: "It's not that I can't help you. Seeing you, I see me back then, and I was so desperate back then. If it wasn't for..."

He stopped talking here, then paused, and continued: "If you really want to, find a reason to go out of the temple in three days and meet me at Shangtang Garden in Jinhua City."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand to signal Zhang Wei to leave.

Zhang Wei saluted him before leaving Long Tuan's place.

All the way back, Zhang Wei was excited all the way.

But he didn't feel that his behavior style is different from before!In the past, he would rather do less than commit crimes.Conservative and prudent is his code of conduct.

But now, he dared to seek help from an unfamiliar senior brother, and it was obvious that he sought help from evil ways.This was impossible for him before.

It seems that after that dream, his personality was modified!And he didn't feel it at all, as if he was born to be like this.

Go back to your own house.Because Ma Jun is dead, this house will not arrange new people to come in for a while, and now it is his room alone.

He took out a yang qi pill, hesitated for a moment, and swallowed it directly.He hesitated for a moment, because he was thinking of using Long Tuan's method, and waited until there were ghosts by his side before taking pills to practice.

But he thought about it again, Long Tuan couldn't let Long Tuan find out about this pill, so he just took it.

After taking this yang qi pill, Zhang Wei started to practice again.

Finally, when he was sweating profusely again, his "Yellow Apricot Health-Preserving Technique" has improved again!Although there was no breakthrough this time, Zhang Wei also felt that it was not far away.

The main reason is that his physical talent is too poor, otherwise this elixir would definitely allow him to break through.

After doing this, he fell asleep.

............................................................

In the past few days, Zhang Wei swallowed three yang qi pills, and the "Huang Xing Health Preserving Technique" also broke through to the fourth floor.After taking the pill, his progress slowed down again.

Over the past few days, he has also been beating around the bush to inquire about 'Yang Qi'.But his inquiries came to nothing.His class is still too low, and he can't inquire about many things.

All the Taoists who came into contact with him were Taoists, and he knew what most of the Taoists knew.Sometimes, class is a hurdle that cannot be overcome.

But the time soon came to the third day.Zhang Wei found an excuse to go to Jinhua City that day.As long as he can rush back to the Taoist temple at night, he will be fine, because he has to patrol at night!
Fortunately, his kung fu has improved now, which has increased his energy.Otherwise, he would probably die young if he went out wandering without sleeping.

Jinhua City is still the same, roughly the same as the Jinhua City in the dream, except for some shops, the rest of the layout is similar.The Shangtang Garden that Zhang Wei is going to is a courtyard of the Chen family, a wealthy family in the city.

This Chen family... seems to have appeared in a dream, the lady of his family is one of his wives!Thinking of this, he couldn't help shaking his head.

The Chen family is an aristocratic family, with several 'scholars', such a high-class family, how can people like myself be able to climb high?
He laughed at himself, but rushed to Shangtang Garden.

After showing that he came to find Long Tuan, he was brought into the garden.Shangtang Garden is a top-level garden, with three steps and one scene, and different scenes. It is a famous garden in Jinhua City.

This is also the first time for Zhang Wei to come to this kind of high-end garden, and it is really strange to see it.

Soon, he came to Long Tuan.At this time, Long Tuan was lying on a beautiful woman's lap and eating grapes.

Seeing Zhang Wei coming, he didn't get up, but said lightly: "You want to use ghosts to cultivate, I can give you a chance."

After he finished speaking, he took out a black wooden bottle from his sleeve and said, "You just need to hand this black wooden bottle to Dong Sheng, the black dog in the city, and I will let you stay with the ghost for one night."

Hearing this, Zhang Wei was taken aback.Then Long Tuan said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will take care of you and won't let you be eaten by ghosts."

Zhang Wei nodded when he heard this.Then he took the bottle and said, "Who is this black dog Dong Sheng?"

Long Tuan waved his hand and said, "Go and find out yourself, he is quite famous."

After finishing speaking, he ignored Zhang Wei and started teasing the beauty.

Zhang Wei took the black wooden bottle, turned around and left.

After leaving this place, Zhang Wei walked around the street, and then went to inquire about the black dog Dong Sheng.

Only after inquiring did he know that the black dog Dong Sheng was a well-known gangster in Jinhua City. Under the guidance of a "good-hearted person", Zhang Wei came to a bungalow.

"Is this where the black dog Dong Sheng lives?"

He straightened his Taoist robe, and then knocked on the door.In fact, he was a little apprehensive seeing this kind of bastard, but the Taoist robe on his body was the best protection talisman.In Jinhua City, no one dared to do anything to the Xinghuangguan people.

Not long after, the door opened, and a scarred face said viciously, "Is that bastard knocking on the door?"

He stretched his head out to look, but saw a Taoist boy standing in front of him.He couldn't help but paused, and then asked: "Little master, what are you doing?"

Sure enough, the Taoist robe on his body has such a deterrent effect.Zhang Wei asked directly: "Are you the black dog Dong Sheng?"

The scarred face froze for a moment, then he said, "I'm not. Are you looking for my boss?"

"Well, I'm looking for him."

Not long after, a white-faced scholar appeared in front of Zhang Wei, and he said, "I am Dong Sheng, I don't know my little master..."

Zhang Wei took out the black wooden bottle, shook it, and said, "Do you know this thing?"

When Dong Sheng saw it, he smiled and said, "So it's you, of course I know this thing." After finishing speaking, he flatteringly took the black wooden bottle from Zhang Wei's hand, and said, "It's still According to the old rules, after three days, please invite the little master to pick it up."

Hearing this, Zhang Wei also nodded.Then he turned and left.

Although he was curious about what was in the black wooden bottle, his reason told him not to meddle in other people's business!When you are an errand runner, be an errand runner!

After the job was done, it was getting late, so Zhang Wei went directly back to the observation room.

Three days later, Zhang Wei came to Dong Sheng's house again.This time it was Dong Sheng who opened the door.Compared with three days ago, his complexion is worse today.

But this is not Zhang Wei's business.He stretched out his hand, and Dong Sheng honestly handed the black wooden bottle into his hand.

He hesitated for a moment, but said: "Please tell your lord, my incident seems to have been noticed, and please make more preparations, lord."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wei nodded and left.

He came to Shangtang Garden and saw Long Tuan again.He put the black wooden bottle on, and then said: "Then Dong Sheng said that his affairs seem to have been discovered, so you need to make more preparations."

When Long Tuan heard this, a hint of annoyance appeared on his face, then he nodded and said, "I understand."

Then Zhang Wei asked: "I don't know what brother promised me..."

When Long Tuan heard this, he smiled and said, "Don't worry about this matter, I will arrange it. Just wait for it with peace of mind."

Hearing this, Zhang Wei suddenly had an idea in his mind.

He himself will not be prostituted by Long Tuan!

Long Tuan sent Zhang Wei away, and Zhang Wei walked on the road a little depressed.

If you are being prostituted for nothing, there is really nothing you can do.Fortunately, this was just an errand, and there was nothing to lose except for some lost time.

Then, he returned to the mountain gate.Not long after entering the mountain gate, two senior brothers came to him.

"You are Zhang Wei? Why did you go to Shangtang Garden in Jinhua City today?"

The unceremonious inquiry of the two senior brothers directly made Zhang Wei's heart sink.He suddenly felt that he was not only being prostituted for nothing, but also seemed to be involved in something bad!

This is unlucky!

　Wuhu!New book set sail!Everyone votes for it (laughs)!
