Liao Zhai alchemist

Chapter 467 Chance
It was dawn the next day.Zhang Xuanji looked at a few people on the saddle, with a slight displeasure on her face.

What is this all about, being regarded as a saint by others, and yet being served!

These few people are all Taoists who preach the scriptures. They left the base camp of preaching the scriptures and came to their hometown in the south to preach.Among them, the man named Wade is a walker.The other four people are his comrades from the same village, and they are also partners who are willing to follow him.

Zhang Xuanji looked unhappy, but Wade Zheng and the others looked happy.Because on the 'Ghost Crossing List', after Zhang Xuanji's name, there are two words 'Saint'.

What's this?This is Bodhisattva certification!Zhang Xuanji also saw this list, and wondered why she was a saint.

She suspected Zhang Wei's hands and feet, but she had no evidence.

Zhang Xuanji was very uncomfortable with the waiting of several men.So she said, "Don't do this to you, even if I were a saint, I wouldn't deserve it."

"It's worth it. It's our honor to serve a saint." Several people said with bright faces.

Zhang Wei smiled and said to Zhang Xuanji: "Xuanji, forget it. Let them go."

With Zhang Wei's persuasion, Zhang Xuanji didn't say anything more.But she has already been noticed by the people in the caravan, and everyone is secretly observing her, which makes her somewhat uncomfortable.

Zhang Wei also sighed, and said, "When we get to the next city, we will leave them, buy a horse and go on our own."

It can only be so.

So, two days later, they arrived in a small town, bid farewell to the caravan, and went to the market in the small town to buy some horses for transportation.Wade and the others couldn't afford the horse, and Zhang Xuanji finally paid for it.

Zhang Xuanji is a little rich woman after all...

Those who considered themselves followers of the saint also accepted these horses with peace of mind.

On this day, several people were sitting in a restaurant eating.Zhang Wei suddenly handed a book to Zhang Xuanji and said, "Xuanji, this book is for you."

"What is this?" Zhang Xuanji asked, then took the book and read it.

""Laoshan Magic"? What is this?" Zhang Xuanji asked strangely.

"This is a book that records "Laoshan Spells". It is useless to me, but you can try to enshrine it and use some spells." Zhang Wei said to her.

Now Laoshan magic is really useless to Zhang Wei, he doesn't even use magic.Giving it to Zhang Xuanji can give her more means.

Zhang Xuanji nodded, then tried to open the first page, and then got a prompt.

Zhang Wei didn't care about Zhang Xuanji, he suddenly heard a small discussion outside a few tables next to him.

"Brother Feng, this time we must find the hidden Buddha treasure."

"Well, sister Qing. This time the vision from the site of the Daguan Temple must have been born. If we get it, we will be able to perfect our practice... It won't be a surprise that we will be promoted to warriors in the future!"

These were the voices of a man and a woman. Although their voices were small and covered by the noise of the restaurant, they were still clearly heard by Zhang Wei.

Suddenly his heart moved, and he pinched his fingers to calculate for a while, then nodded, thinking: "Unexpectedly, there is still a chance here!"

This is the ability of the True Immortal Dao Fruit, which can know the past life and present life, and can also deduce chance and coincidence.However, this kind of deduction is not out of thin air, at least a little clue is needed to deduce it.

It really needs to be calculated on a whim, and Zhang Wei's strength needs to be strengthened.

Zhang Wei looked at the five people who were working hard to prepare the rice, and said, "You finish your meal quickly, we will leave later."

The five people nodded after listening, and grilled the rice more quickly.

People in the army eat very quickly.They finished eating quickly and went to prepare the horses and luggage.Not long after, Zhang Wei brought Zhang Xuanji down from the restaurant.

"Master, where are we going?" Several people said to Zhang Wei respectfully.They called Zhang Wei uncle, although Zhang Wei looked younger than them all.

Zhang Wei pointed to the northeast and said, "Let's go in that direction."

Several people nodded, then got on their horses, protected Zhang Wei and Zhang Xuanji, and headed northeast.

Soon they were out of the city, heading northeast along the road.After walking for a while, the road here became more and more difficult to walk, and there were gradually no people around, and gradually walked into a large mountain.

Zhang Wei looked around, pointed to the road ahead covered by weeds and said, "Go along this road."

When the five people saw it, it turned out that there was still a way!

They didn't say anything, but led the way.

Gradually, the grass became waist-deep.The horses are not easy to go.The few people in front got off their horses, took out their waist knives and began to cut grass to open the way.

After busying for a long time, finally in the afternoon, Zhang Wei and the others entered the depths of the mountain and found a deserted hill at the end of the road covered by weeds and bushes.

"Master, this seems to be a temple." Wade looked at the surrounding environment, and then said to Zhang Wei.

"Do you know what the temple is called?" Zhang Wei continued to ask.

"The plaques are all decayed, and the handwriting can't be read clearly." Wade said shaking his head.

"Well, we will camp here today." Zhang Wei said lightly.

"Decree!" Several people did not raise any objections, anyway, they did what the uncle said.The discipline of the soldiers is undoubtedly revealed at this moment.

The mountain gate is dilapidated, and the temple has to walk up the mountain road for a while.The stone on the road is now covered with moss and weeds.Fearing that the horse would slip and fall, everyone got off their horses and walked up.

The three of Wade are still leading the way ahead, and the other two are behind to protect.This is the protection strategy of the military array.

Before long, they arrived in front of the temple.

This is a temple that has been abandoned for an unknown amount of time. Judging from the mountain gate, the size of the temple was not small.

It's just that the damage here is serious now, and many stones and bricks have disappeared. It seems that they were picked up by nearby mountain people to make chicken coops.

Most of the adobe walls remained, and the beams supporting the roof were also taken away. Many houses collapsed, and even most of the black tiles on the roof were taken away.

The only one that is better preserved is the central hall.The doors and windows are still there!Not pried away for firewood.

Wade and the others went in first, and then came out and said, "It's not bad inside, it's quite spacious."

Zhang Wei nodded before entering the hall.

The main hall is very clean, and several pillars supporting the main hall are intact, but in the center of the main hall, the high platform where the Buddha was originally enshrined is empty, leaving only a platform made of earth and stone.

The square bricks on the ground are also in good condition. They are paved with high-quality water-milled square bricks. Although there is some dust on the ground, there are no traces of snakes, insects, rats and ants.

"This hall is well preserved, which is interesting." Zhang Wei patted the pillars beside him and said.

"Master, this deep mountain and old forest, dilapidated ancient temple. I'm afraid it's not a good place." Wade came forward and said.

"It's okay, are you still afraid of those goblins?" Zhang Wei glanced at him.

He froze for a moment, then smiled and said: "Yes, there is a saint, those mountain spirits and wild monsters are here, I'm afraid they are not looking for Duhua!"

Zhang Xuanji next to her could only sigh helplessly after hearing this.

Next, the five people began to fetch water to clean the hall, at least to create a clean place.

There is an active spring at the back of the temple, the spring water is clear and sweet, and there is no shortage of water here.

I went outside to collect some dry firewood and came back, and brought three pheasants, two rabbits, and a deer.Five people work very quickly.

In a short while, roast chicken and stewed meat will be arranged.The sky gradually darkened.

The sky was gloomy, and everyone ate roast chicken and drank broth.Suddenly, a gust of dark wind blew, and the doors and windows of the hall blew loudly.

When the five of them saw this battle, they immediately touched their waist knives.This is obviously something coming!

At this time, a voice sounded: "Who are you, why are you occupying my residence?"

The voice was empty and the pronunciation was a little weird.Zhang Wei cupped his hands and said, "I passed by by chance and thought no one was there, so I came in for a night's stay!"

After Zhang Wei finished speaking, the door of the main hall was suddenly blown open. After a gust of wind, an elder with four eyes and a monster with a human body appeared in front of everyone.

This monster is covered with short fluff, and there is a layer of flesh between the arms and the body.His claws were sharp and he carried a dead deer in his hands.

After the monster fell, they found that Zhang Wei and the others were not panicked, so they asked in surprise, "Humans, aren't you afraid of me?"

Zhang Wei's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he knew what the monster was just by looking at it.

This is a mountain spirit, a kind of goblin.It looks like a monkey, with four eyes, webbed arms, can fly, and is good at running.Its heart can be used as medicine, which has the effect of treating shock and evil.

In addition to this knowledge, Zhang Wei can also see that this goblin is a kind goblin, the aura in its body is very pure, without human blood, which means it does not eat people.

Some mountain spirits can eat people, because eating people can increase their cultivation.Being able to refrain from eating people, this mountain spirit is also commendable.

Zhang Wei smiled and said, "Why should I be afraid of you, would you eat me?"

"Hahaha! Interesting!" The mountain spirit dropped the dead deer in his hand, and then rushed towards Zhang Wei with a kick.

The five people were startled, and the knife in their hands was about to strike.Zhang Xuanji is ready to chant scriptures!
But Zhang Wei didn't think it would move, and then the mountain spirit pressed Zhang Wei's face, blinked all four eyes, and said, "You really are not afraid of me!"

Zhang Wei shook his head and said, "I told you, you won't eat me."

The mountain spirit went back and said: "What's so delicious about human flesh? It's sour and smelly. It's not as good as venison!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xuanji boldly asked: "Listen to you, have you ever eaten human flesh?"

The mountain spirit froze for a moment, and then pretended to be tough and said: "Of course, I would say that if I hadn't eaten it." Then he glanced at Zhang Wei and the others, and said: "Don't worry, I have given up human flesh. Don't worry."

After speaking, he squatted down, grabbed the venison and began to gnaw it. He didn't eat cooked food, so he just gnawed it raw, until the venison was bloody.

He gnawed it a few times, and found that Zhang Wei and the others were still looking at him, so he put the venison behind him, and said cautiously, "I won't give it to you, I don't have enough for myself!"

Zhang Wei laughed dumbfounded, and immediately said: "You eat, you eat!"

After hearing this, the mountain spirit took the deer and walked out of the hall, obviously going to eat elsewhere.

After he left, Zhang Xuanji said, "What is this?"

Zhang Wei said: "This is the mountain spirit recorded in the book. The mountain spirit is a goblin in the mountains, and has no thoughts of good and evil in his heart. Some mountain spirits can eat people, because eating people can increase their cultivation. This kind of Mountain spirits cannot stay, they must be killed. Mountain spirits who eat humans cannot resist the temptation of human flesh."

"And this goblin has never eaten people. Don't look at him insisting that he has eaten, but in fact he has never eaten. This kind of goblin can save his life."

Zhang Xuanji nodded after hearing this, she has learned a lot today.

Wade also nodded frequently.At this moment, a golden light suddenly flashed outside.Everyone was attracted by this golden light.

"There's something!" Wade said, and then walked towards the golden light.

"Be careful!" Zhang Wei shouted at him, and then waved his hand, a mana hit him, hitting a golden sword shadow in one go!
This sword shadow was hitting Wade right now!

Wade was frightened out of a cold sweat.Then Zhang Wei walked up and said, "Be careful, follow me."

A mana shield appeared on his body, covering them, and then Zhang Wei walked towards the direction of the golden light.

Along the way, the shadows of swords, knives, and spears transformed into golden light kept hitting Zhang Wei's mana shield.But now that Zhang Wei is already a powerful man, this kind of attack can't break through his shield.

When everyone came to the backyard of the temple, they saw that mountain spirit fighting with a ball of golden light!
Mountain spirits are mountain goblins, who are best at using the power of mountains and forests, stretching out vines from the ground, and pulling towards the golden light.And the mountain spirit also held a wooden stick and kept hitting the golden light.

In the golden light, there is a palm-sized Jiangmo pestle, which continuously emits golden light, and the golden light turns into swords, spears, swords and halberds, and continuously hits the mountain spirit.

Seeing Zhang Wei and the others come out, the mountain spirit who was in a ball with Jin Guang immediately shouted: "Humans, this is not something you can deal with, go to the main hall and stay here, this thing dare not go to the main hall!"

While he was speaking, another ray of golden light from the Subduing Demon Pestle hit him, and instantly sent him flying, leaving a wound on his chest.

"Bastard! I don't believe I can't break you!" The mountain spirit was furious. He knocked the wooden stick on the ground, and a wave of rocky air swept over him, instantly enveloping him, and his strength, defense, and speed were all improved by this. .

The wooden stick in his hand was also covered with a layer of rock, turning into a cored stone stick!
"Ah!!!" The mountain spirit roared, bared his fangs, and hit Jin Guang again!

When Zhang Wei saw this scene, he waved his hands and said with a smile: "It really is a good opportunity!"

He said to Zhang Xuanji beside him: "Xuanji, your weapon is here!"

Zhang Xuanji was taken aback, and said 'ah' in her mouth, then pointed to the subduing magic pestle and said, "That is my weapon?"

Zhang Wei nodded and said with a smile: "That baby, I should be destined to be with you, wait for me to pick it up and give it to you!"
