Poverty

Within a street in Weicheng,
A girl of seventeen or eighteen years old was blocked in a corner by a hunchbacked old woman.

The girl's face was smeared with black ash on the left and right, and her face could not be seen clearly, except for her black and white eyes, which were clearly extremely bright and pure.

Wearing a loose robe, you can vaguely see her charming curves.

At this time, the girl's bright eyes were filled with panic, and her lips were pressed into a tight line.

He held a soul-calling bell in his hand, which is a common magic weapon used by Taoist sects to suppress ghosts and exorcise evil spirits.

The hunchbacked old woman opposite was unmoved, showing her few remaining yellowed teeth.

He smiled coldly: "You little fox can run quite well. Neither of them caught you."

"However, in the end you still fell into the hands of my old woman!"

The girl pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.

"You are acting as an aide to the tiger and claiming to be righteous people. You are simply more hateful than the devil!"

The hunchbacked old woman smiled sinisterly and said: "Little fox, are you frightened and talking nonsense? How can we be righteous people? We are clearly demons!"

Girl: "........."

There was a moment of anger, followed by a huge fear,

The hunchbacked old woman is not amazing in appearance, but her methods are extremely evil and cruel, and she can charm the mind.
If it weren't for his special bloodline, I'm afraid he wouldn't have had the trouble to be captured by this hunchbacked old woman, who would have followed her obediently with just one look.

laugh!
The hunchbacked old woman suddenly stretched out her hand and grabbed the girl fiercely, and a sharp sound broke through the air.
It was so fast that an afterimage swept across the sky,
The girl was panicked, but she punched directly.
boom!
The hunchbacked old woman remained motionless, but the girl flew out directly.
However, her body turned several somersaults in the air and landed gently, neutralizing the powerful force of the hunchbacked old woman.
The hunchbacked old woman said coldly: "As expected of the daughter of the leader of the martial arts alliance."

The girl flew backwards and jumped out of the alleyway.

It's just that a black light suddenly flew out of the hand of this hunchbacked old woman,
The black light disappeared in an instant and hit the girl's back heavily!

boom!
The girl fell hard!

This black light is a string of bracelets, each one made of polished skulls, containing a lot of resentment. It is a magic weapon in the hands of this hunchbacked old woman.

After the girl landed, she was in severe pain. She couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. She couldn't struggle for a while.

She is not an ordinary weak woman. Her father is Pei Jian, the leader of the Jiangnan Martial Arts Alliance. He is a first-class martial artist with strong energy and blood, so demons and ghosts dare not get close to him.
He once killed a giant python that was causing harm to the mountains and forests with his bare hands, peeled off the snake's skin, drew blood and dug out the snake's gallbladder, which made him famous!
The girl has been practicing martial arts with her father since she was a child, and her energy and blood are very strong.

If he hadn't met this hunchbacked old woman, he would have escaped from the tiger's mouth long ago.

The hunchbacked old woman smiled sinisterly, stepped forward and lifted the girl up.

But the girl suddenly bumped into the hunchbacked old woman's belly.
boom!
Even with the help of the hunchbacked old woman, the lower abdomen was in severe pain after being hit by this collision, and her face turned pale.

The monks have powerful abilities, but close combat is the exclusive domain of warriors.

The old woman snorted coldly, and the black light flew up again in her hand. This time she lost precise control and flew directly towards the girl's head!
If hit by this blow, the girl will die immediately.
Of course, this old woman came here to arrest someone, and killing this girl was not her intention.
But just now he was hit, and he struck angrily at his heart, missing an inch.

With the speed of this black light, the girl couldn't react in time. The blow she received just now had already broken her shoulder blade and her body was invaded by Yin Qi!
however,
But the black light did not fall on her head. A handsome young Taoist priest suddenly appeared.

He directly took out the black light, and with a gentle squeeze of his hand, the magic weapon made from a bunch of human heads turned into powder!
The hunchbacked old woman had cold eyes and said in a deep voice:

"Who are you! Minding your own business!"

As he finished speaking, a pale human hand suddenly appeared from the ground and grabbed Li Yanchu's calf, trying to pull him off.
This is a secret technique mastered by the old woman, ghost shadow!

Just the moment the pale human hand grabbed Li Yanchu's calf, it suddenly exploded with a bang!
The girl's eyes widened. This old woman who practiced magic was cruel and vicious.
A wandering Taoist who was slaying demons wanted to rescue him, but the old woman used this secret technique to directly capture him underground. When he resurfaced, there was only a white skeleton!
Thinking of the previous scene, the girl felt a little moved and shuddered.

Unexpectedly, it seemed to have no effect on the young Taoist.

Li Yanchu's eyes fell on the old woman, and he was a little curious: "Which force are you from?"

The old woman looked alert and said nothing.

Just now, Li Yanchu broke through her magic weapon and secret technique in an instant.
The old woman was a little panicked, unable to see through the depth of this young Taoist.
"This person has an extremely strong aura in his movements. Could he be a master in the late second realm?"

The old woman couldn't help but think.

But she was half right, it was indeed the later stage,
But it’s not the second realm, but the third realm!

When Li Yan first saw that the old woman was silent, he asked again: "Netherworld Mountain, Spring and Autumn Forest, or Shengxian Mansion? Or the White Lotus Sect?"

Li Yanchu believed that anyone who dared to break into Weicheng at this time must have a great background.
Who knew that the old woman's look at Li Yanchu would become more and more strange?
She had never heard of the first three. The White Lotus Sect had been vaguely heard from someone. It was an ancient sect that had long since disappeared, a mysterious demonic sect. It could be said that it was the leader in the demonic sect.

Is this Taoist priest deliberately entertaining Lao Shen... The old woman said proudly: "I come from Longyang Temple. If you are wise, step aside and give this cauldron to Lao Shen to take away. Longyang Temple is an existence you cannot afford to offend."

Li Yanchu: "………………"

Very standard bad guy speech,

Li Yanchu fell into silence when he heard this. This move made the girl behind him turn pale.
Longyang Temple is a powerful demonic sect in the south of the Yangtze River. Is this young Taoist intimidated by this title?

The girl knew in her heart that there was no chance of surviving today,

Unexpectedly, a moment later,

This rich and handsome young Taoist with a simple long sword hanging on his waist said in confusion: "Longyang Temple? What kind of place is Longyang Temple? Why haven't you heard of it?"

The hunchbacked old woman: “…………”

Girl: "…………"

The hunchbacked old woman shouted coldly: "Don't pretend to be calm. There are many experts in Longyang Temple, and they are famous. If you know what to do, please step back and don't let me repeat it again."

Li Yanchu frowned when he heard this.
I don’t know where such a force appeared again.

The old woman's cultivation level is not very strong. She is in the middle stage of Yin Shen. She may be a junior member of Longyang Temple.

Usually minions speak so arrogantly.

Li Yanchu was too lazy to talk nonsense to her. He flicked his fingers and a stream of energy penetrated the old woman's head.
boom!
This hunchbacked old woman died suddenly!

Li Yanchu controlled his power, fearing that she would be beaten to death.
He grabbed the old woman's soul with his hands and grabbed it out of her body.

The hunchbacked old woman looked confused and a little at a loss.
The girl next to Li Yanchu also widened her watery, black and white eyes, full of panic.

This...isn't a master of magic!
Li Yanchu didn't talk nonsense to the old woman.

Now, he is no longer the young man who needs Minghe to ask questions.

The terrifying Gangqi swept away inch by inch, and the old woman's body and spirit were destroyed.

At this time, Li Yanchu also read the old woman's memory,
However, Li Yanchu fell into silence immediately.
"Longyang Temple... such a big demonic sect."

Li Yanchu said with emotion,

The girl twitched the corner of her mouth. Why did she feel that the young Taoist's tone was very strange?
Li Yanchu learned from the old woman's memory that Longyang Temple was a demonic cultivation sect in the south of the Yangtze River.
Guanzhonghan Zhenren is a master at the pinnacle of Yin Shen, mastering several magic secrets.

The environment in Jiangnan is quite special. Buddhism and Taoism are prosperous, and the literary style is also very strong. It can be said that there are many practitioners.

Therefore, Longyang Temple is not well-known in the south of the Yangtze River. As a demonic sect, it still follows the path of murdering and plundering women from good families.

And for ordinary martial arts masters, the secret technique of Longyang Temple is extremely powerful.

Previously, Long Yangguan's robbery of good families was exposed, and one of the dens was destroyed by Pei Jian, the leader of Jiangnan Wulin League.
Pei Jian was later cursed to death by the secret technique of Longyang Guanhan Zhenren. A first-class martial artist who could fight demons at close range died under the magic.

This is the shortcoming of martial arts. Cultivating the physical body but not cultivating the soul, the secret technique of the soul is a great threat to martial arts.This hunchbacked old woman specially robbed women from good families for the master of the temple, and took them back to her crown to make a furnace.
The secret technique practiced by the temple master is extremely overbearing. Basically, after a few days of harvesting, people will usually be killed directly.

Originally, they would not commit crimes across the border from Jiangnan and come to Beifeng County to arrest good families.

Just because this girl is the daughter of the Wulin Alliance, the viewer named the girl named Pei Yu to be taken back and have fun for a few days.

Therefore, the hunchbacked old woman followed her,

This Pei Yu is a Jianghu woman who is good at Qinggong swordsmanship. She has practiced martial arts since she was a child. Now she is a third-rate martial artist. The energy and blood in her body have been trained to the point of fur and flesh.
If you completely refine these muscles and bones, you will step into the realm of a second-rate martial artist with rich experience in martial arts.

Therefore, the old woman spent a lot of means,
It was a coincidence that during a hurricane, the merchant ship that Pei Yu was traveling on was shattered, and the old woman and another old man dressed as a fisherman caught up to this place!

"Thank you Taoist Priest for saving your life. Wang Xiu will never forget it!"

The girl suddenly turned over, knelt on the ground, and said respectfully.

You are so handsome... Li Yanchu's mouth twitched slightly: "No need to be polite, Miss Pei Yu."

The girl suddenly shook her body and raised her head in disbelief. Her gratitude turned into a strong sense of vigilance: "Who are you?!"

The world is dangerous, and Pei Yu dare not trust Li Yanchu at this time.
Li Yanchu smiled slightly: "The poor Taoist Li Yuanba is a casual cultivator."

Looking at Pei Yu who was so alert, he felt a little emotional in his heart.
These are the children of Jianghu!

How can you trust others?
His consciousness instantly spread out, searching the entire Wei City, and found an old man holding a fishing rod.

This old man’s arms are thicker than ordinary people’s thighs.

This person is already half-human and half-demon, but it should be due to the long-term eating of monsters in the water in the later period. He has not been refined, and his body has been eroded by the monster energy.

Like the hunchbacked old woman, this old man is also riddled with resentment and is not a kind person.

"No need to worry, I know a little bit about the art of searching for souls. I just learned from this old woman's soul that there is an old man who is chasing you, right?"

Li Yanchu said lightly.

Pei Yu took a deep breath and finally nodded.
Li Yanchu took out a bean from his body, threw it casually, and turned into a tall official with sharp eyes, with a wild goose feather knife on his waist.

The technique of throwing beans into soldiers!

Li Yanchu said softly: "Drag the person to a secluded place and chop him down."

The burly official said respectfully: "Follow the law."

Then he strode out.

Li Yanchu's technique of sowing beans and forming an army has achieved some success. Now, there are many changes.

At this time, he turned into an official official and did not want to attract attention in the crowded Wei City.
Otherwise, a thunderbolt will strike down and turn into ashes!
The girl was stunned.

Is this the legendary fairy magic that spreads beans to form an army?
The young girl was immediately shocked by the young Taoist in front of her.
This is real fairy!
………………

Weicheng,

An old man holding a fishing rod was walking on the street, and a tall official came towards him, with a wild goose feather knife on his waist and sharp eyes.
The old man looked at him inadvertently, his eyes stung.

boom!
When the official passed by him, he kicked the old man's knee hard.
Grab the old man's neck!
The old man is a second-level left-field monk who is proficient in body-refining methods and is no match for ordinary martial artists up close.
But he didn't expect that when he encountered this official, he was subdued in an instant. He couldn't move at all, and he was in so much pain that he couldn't say a word.
"This fugitive escaped to Weicheng. We will arrest him and bring him to justice today!" the officer shouted coldly, escorting the man away from the street.

As a result, it didn't cause any sensation at all.
It's just that the official dragged the old man to a quiet place.

The old man was horrified, the man in front of him was definitely no ordinary yamen official!

If the official chariots had such strength, then their demonic sect would simply be disbanded, what a waste of time!

The old man wanted to ask, who are you?Where did I go wrong in your hands?
It's a pity that the officials summoned by Li Yanchu did not set up such complicated procedures at all.

Drag him to a secluded place and chop the old man to death with several knives.

Immediately, the true fire of Samadhi emerged from his palm, burning the old man to death, and his body quickly turned into ashes.
A set of movements flowed smoothly, destroying the corpse and eliminating traces.

Li Yanchu took back his spiritual thoughts and was quite satisfied.

Only by using such methods can one be called an immortal cultivator. Previously, I only knew how to chop and chop, which was a bit too violent.
I just poured my spiritual thoughts into it, and then I can use the Samadhi True Fire. Otherwise, I still can't use the ordinary technique of planting beans to form an army.

"There is still a long way to go."

Li Yanchu thought.

Killing two people resulted in a total of six thousand merits, which was not bad.

Pei Yu suddenly felt something in his heart and knelt down on the ground: "The Taoist Master is a real person from the Taoist sect. I beg the Taoist Master to save the innocent woman trapped in Jiangnan!"

Li Yanchu said calmly: "Do you believe in Pindao now?"

Pei Yu nodded heavily: "The Taoist priest is upright and a man among the gods. The little girl Pei Yu is the daughter of the leader of the martial arts league in Jiangnan. Her father was killed to investigate the matter. The innocent woman in Jiangnan was robbed by Longyang Temple. Only the Taoist priest can't do it." rescue!"

Li Yanchu nodded slightly: "Okay, I'll go with you."

Pei Yu's face lit up with joy and he was immediately grateful!

This place is not far from Taiping Inn, so Li Yanchu went to tell the proprietress first,
At this time, the uncle went to perform religious duties again and was not at Qingyun Temple at all.
Li Yanchu thought for a moment, then took out the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Demon-Eliminating God Shuttle.

"Sit up, Pindao will take you to Jiangnan."

Pei Yu was once again shocked by Li Yanchu's magical methods and said quickly: "Okay."

Her body was invaded by Yin Qi. At this moment, her beautiful eyebrows were furrowed and her teeth were grimacing in pain.

Li Yanchu reached out and gently held her wrist, pouring a majestic spiritual energy into it.

Pei Yu immediately snorted, and then his face softened and relaxed, and the injuries on his body were healed instantly by this spiritual energy!
"It's amazing!" Pei Yu's heart moved.

Li Yanchu suddenly smiled and said: "You asked me for help just now, not because you believe in Pindao, but because you know that you can't escape no matter what, so why not give it a try? If Pindao is a righteous person, you can not only rescue those innocent women, but also Avenge my father."

Pei Yu's eyes flashed with surprise, and he suddenly said: "The Taoist priest has a sharp eye, and the little girl's thoughts are clearly seen by the Taoist priest."

Li Yanchu smiled slightly and didn't take these words to heart.

On the contrary, he had a good impression of this girl named Pei Yu.

This is how you should walk in the world. No matter how beautiful you are, you should still have some sense of the world.

After stepping onto the divine shuttle, the girl, who looked a bit quaint in his eyes, let out a scream:
"Aaaaaaaaaaa!"

The two of them turned into a stream of light and fled towards the sky!
……

Jiangnan County, Longyang Guanshan Gate,
There are many Buddhist temples in Jiangnan, most of which occupy famous mountains and rivers.
This Longyang Temple is built on a secluded barren mountain. There is a cover-up on the outside. Ordinary people cannot find it at all. Even well-trained Buddhist monks cannot easily see through it.

There is a Taoist temple in the mountains. The number of people is only twenty or thirty. There are young and strong Taoist priests, as well as middle-aged Taoists who act calmly.

The master of the temple, Han Zhenren, is 120 years old this year. He is still full of energy, walking as fast as flying, with skin as delicate as a baby, tight and strong muscles, an air of immortality, and a glowing face.

Today, Han Zhenren gave a sermon at the forum. He was talking about the art of Fang Zhongshu.

It is said that thousands of imperial maidens can ascend in a day, and the disciples were mesmerized when they heard it, and some of the details were told vividly.

They are all experienced people, and Master Han Zhenren is even more proficient in this.
Today, a centenarian is still as strong as a young man, which speaks volumes.
