Cultivating the Tao: Beginning with Meditation and Liver Experience

Chapter 44 Sneak attack, peeking ghost!

After a moment.

The fortune-teller led Xu Yan to a house in the corner of the house, opened the thousand-machine lock hanging on the nose of the door, and made a gesture of invitation: "Fellow Taoist, please come in!"

Xu Yan walked into the room calmly.

I saw that a small room was engraved with various patterns and talismans, which vaguely seemed to be some kind of special formation.

After a little thought, Xu Yan understood the general function of this formation.

This formation should be a protective formation set up by the owner of the house. It can not only effectively prevent the infiltration of evil spirits from the outside world, but also have a certain protective power for the house, and can isolate the sound from coming out and so on.

The monks living in the ghost city are not real ghosts after all. Even if there are some means to resist the erosion of Yin Qi in the ghost city, they still need a residence suitable for the living of living people and various living materials needed by living people.

Therefore, it is definitely not an easy task for living people to live in the ghost city, and more ghosts in the underworld settle here.

Of course, living people are not easy, and ghosts are also difficult.

Because the ghost market is not a shantang, if you want to live in the ghost market, you have to pay money.

If you don’t have money, go to the Netherland to mine, collect the essence of the dead, plant and pick the other shore flowers, find all kinds of natural treasures, etc., and then take these things to the ghost market in exchange for money, so that you can pay rent, buy real estate, and exchange cultivation resources. wait.

As the saying goes: Migrant workers have their souls, and those who work are masters.

When you are alive, you need to work hard for three meals a day.

Even if you become a ghost after death, you still need to risk your life to fight for a place to stay, and you cannot escape the fate of being exploited and squeezed.

The reality is so cruel, so cruel that the capitalists will cry when they come.

A kind of pressure called "survival" makes people and ghosts unable to breathe.

Of course, Xu Yan only recognized a few common talismans, and there were many others he didn't know, so it was difficult for him to figure out what specific functions the talismans and formations on the wall had.

"The humble house is shabby and not very welcoming, making friends laugh."

The fortune teller led Xu Yan into the room, lit a bone lamp with a spell, and there was a faint green flame burning and jumping.

Will-o'-the-wisps are the most common flames in Netherland, and they are also the most commonly used lighting objects for the people of Ghost City, mainly because they are cheap, easy to collect materials, and simple to make, which can save money.

Even because of living in the ghost market for a long time, many monks have long been eroded by Yin Qi, and their likes and dislikes are completely different from living people.

Such things as will-o'-the-wisps must be extremely taboo and unpleasant in the eyes of living people.But for the ghosts and monks living in the ghost city, they have long been used to it, and are deeply loved by the people of the ghost city.

In the dark room, ghost fires danced, and the talismans and patterns on the wall seemed to come to life, reflecting the whole room strangely and inexplicably.

If ordinary people saw this scene, they would be scared to death if they couldn't say it directly.

But Xu Yan didn't care and said: "The Taoist priest is too polite, I'm already very grateful for the hospitality..."

Before the word "grateful" was finished, Xu Yan sensed a sudden malice coming from behind, and then a glint of light shot out from the fortune-teller's hand, and fell on Xu Yan's body in an instant. over the shield.

"boom!"

The shield was shattered, and the remaining light remained undiminished, falling towards Xu Yan's heart.

However, before the joy on the fortune-teller's face faded, he saw in horror that Xu Yan stretched out his right hand unhurriedly, pinching the gloom between his fingers.

But it is a coffin-nailing magic weapon with a gloomy blackness and luster.

"Crack!"

Xu Yan exerted a little force, and under the horrified gaze of the fortune-teller, the specially refined coffin-nailing instrument broke in two and fell to the ground.

"Dao... Fellow Daoist, I... I said this is a misunderstanding, do you believe it?" The fortune-teller came back to his senses, with a stiff smile on his face, but his steps moved back slowly, trying to grab the door and escape.

At this time, he was dying of regret and full of complaints towards Xu Yan.

You are amazing, why are you pretending to be a rookie Xiaobai.

Isn't this cheating?

Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is not such a good way to act.

"Ah!"

Xu Yan sneered, and with the snap of his fingers, a shot of magic power pierced the fortune-teller's throat.

Then the mana turned into a big hand, and took out the evil ghost pretending to be dead in the fortune-teller's body. With a pinch of his hand, he planned to kill the grass and roots, and then slowly searched the fortune-teller's room and property to clean up the spoils.

"Excellent, spare your life, expert, spare your life!"

"Also ask the master to spare the life of the little ghost, the little ghost is useful, the little ghost is useful."

"Little ghost, I know where Jia Laosan hid his money, and I can help the expert lure that old devil Lin, and the kid also knows how to enter the ghost market on the next level, so he knows the ghost market better than Jia Laosan."

The vicious ghost seemed to know Xu Yan's plan, and before Xu Yan could make a move, he wailed with all his might.

Xu Yan let go slightly, frowned and asked, "Do you know what I'm thinking?"

If this ghost didn't know what was going on in his heart, he would certainly not have said such a thing.

"To tell you the truth, the little ghost is a mind-peeping ghost among the other ghosts. He is born with the ability to spy on people's hearts. Jia Laosan borrows the little ghost's ability to deceive in the world of the underworld and the underworld."

"Of course, the expert's strength is too strong, and the little ghost can only spy on the little distracting thoughts that the expert inadvertently reveals, but can't really spy on what the expert is thinking."

"But if you were an ordinary person, the kid would be able to see all its secrets."

"So the little ghost is useful to the master, absolutely useful, and please save the little ghost's life, the little ghost is willing to sacrifice his life and soul, to be driven by the master forever, to be a slave and a servant, life and death are only in the mind of the master!"

In order to live, the mind-peeping ghost was completely thrown out, and he couldn't see any backbone.

"A peeping ghost?"

When Xu Yan heard the heart-peeping ghost's surrender, he didn't speak. Instead, he used his golden pupils of luck to look into the heart-peeping ghost.

In a pair of eyes, there is a bright golden light flowing, like a golden galaxy!
He carefully looked at the mind-peeping ghost, and saw that the entire ghost body of the mind-peeping ghost was composed of individual thoughts and Yin Qi. All the thoughts combined together vaguely formed a strange and complicated cloud of supernatural powers.

"Is your supernatural power born like this, or is it acquired?"

The reason why Xu Yan asked this question is because the mind-peeping ghost's mind-peeping supernatural power is very similar to his mind-penetrating supernatural power among the six magical powers recorded in some classics.

This made him have to wonder whether the mind-peeping ghost in front of him had been in contact with things that contained his mind. After a long time of contact, he was influenced by his mind and had his mind power.

In other words, this little devil has his mind-through cultivation method in his hands, but he just hides it and doesn't say it.

However, as the mind-peeper said, he does have some use for him.

Not to mention the words said by the mind-peeping ghost, just the complex supernatural powers in the mind-peeping ghost's body are of extraordinary value.

Undoubtedly, he could comprehend his supernatural cultivation method from the cloud seal.

If so, he will make a lot of money.

Thinking of this, Xu Yan's expression finally softened a lot, and he said lightly, "If that's the case, then hand over your life and soul!"
