Tongtian Bamboo Repair

Chapter 380 The demon enters the net

There are many monks in Maple Leaf City, but most of them are transplanted artificial spiritual roots. Such monks are generally not high in cultivation. Many people will transplant a spiritual root when they are in their twenties or thirties, and then after reaching the third or fourth level of Qi training, they will find a job such as a magic infusion master or a magic pattern master to support their families and repay the money spent on purchasing the spiritual root. loan.

Spiritual root transplantation is already very mature in this world. This technology can allow an ordinary person to step into the ranks of practitioners. However, although this technology is good, every time one more spiritual root is transplanted, the difficulty will increase exponentially, and the cost will also increase exponentially. Theoretically, as long as you have enough money, even an ordinary person can transplant five spiritual roots and cultivate to the Golden Core realm.

In fact, most people are like the parents of the Li family, who gritted their teeth and bought a mid-level spiritual root transplant when they were young, then went into debt, then worked hard to reach the third level of Qi training, and then worked in a big factory. If you are lucky, you can pay off the loan within ten years, then you can get married, have children, and live a good life.

If you are too ambitious and want to continue practicing after transplanting your spiritual roots, unless you have huge financial support, the road will be very bumpy, and you may end up overwhelmed by debt and disappointment.

Those who are really worth cultivating are those who are born with awakened spiritual roots. It is generally believed that such people can be cultivated. When they are young, they transplant a spiritual root and add their own innately awakened spiritual roots to form a double spiritual root practice. Practice in this way. The speed will be greatly accelerated. Then after the foundation building stage, start saving money to continue transplanting spiritual roots. Until the five spiritual roots are completed, you can advance to the golden elixir stage.

After successfully advancing to the Golden Elixir stage, one will have a lifespan of eight hundred years. Such a long lifespan will have enough time to make money and then repay the loan for transplanting the spiritual roots.

Because of spiritual root transplantation, 99% of the monks in this world will have information left in the Spiritual Root Transplantation Society. After all, people who are born with all five spiritual roots are rare. If there is a record, then the city lord's palace can use this record to trace the information of each monk.

After spending some time searching, the information about those monsters gradually surfaced and was gradually gathered into the city lord's palace.

In the city lord's mansion, General Liang and several other monks were checking the list. After a while, General Liang suddenly slammed the table and said solemnly: "Wow, even my city defense department has been infiltrated by demons, and it turns out to be one of my three most trusted chief officers! It's really unreasonable!"

General Liang is the person in charge of the City Defense Department. All his tasks are carried out through the City Defense Department. Now there is an insider in this place. No wonder the last fishing operation failed so completely!

Not only the City Defense Department, demons have also infiltrated into many organizations. Several large temples also have demons' internal agents. Several monks looked solemn. They didn't expect these demons to infiltrate so rampantly.

General Liang angrily went to arrest the mole, and others also began to arrest people according to the list. With the help of the formation, these monsters have nowhere to hide. Those hiding in the secret room formation will also be found out, and those who think they are hiding well will also be found out. Under the thunderous arrests of the City Lord's Mansion, Maple Leaf City has been in turmoil these past few days. Many monks were taken away while walking on the road.

Luo Tianyou, one of the chief officers of the City Defense Department, was also taken away from his home. This Luo Tianyou was a Nascent Soul cultivator and was a highly regarded monk. But even such monks were corrupted by monsters. Luo Tianyou's daughter Luo Zhenzhen was Li Mozhen's best friend. On the day Luo Tianyou was taken away, Li Mozhen used the small spirit gathering array at his house.

The two women watched Luo Tianyou being taken away with their own eyes, and Luo Zhenzhen was completely stunned. Her father is her greatest pride. He is like the sky to her. Now the sky is about to collapse. How can she not be stupid!

Luo Zhenzhen cried and tried to stop him, but how could she stand up to the wolf-like monks from the City Defense Department? If she hadn't been fine, I'm afraid she would have been taken away.

Luo Zhenzhen was taken away, and her home was searched. A cold seal sealed her home, and she suddenly became homeless. Confused, she immediately contacted her relatives and friends, but those friends and relatives who were usually respectful to her were all silent at the moment, and even her communication mark was deleted.

At this moment, Luo Zhenzhen really felt the warmth and warmth of human relationships and the coldness of the world.

When Li Mocheng returned home, he found that there were guests at home. My parents, who usually should be at work, are resting at home now. Li Mocheng asked strangely: "Don't you have to go to work today? Are you getting off work so early?"

Father Li shook his head, sighed and said: "What kind of shift were we in? The production supervisor was taken away, and he was said to be a heart-hunting monster. Not only him, but several senior executives were also taken away. The hearts of the people in the factory were also taken away." I was so panicked that I simply stopped production for rectification. Hey, what’s going on? I don’t know if my wages will be deducted now..."

Father Li was concerned about his salary, and Mother Li whispered to Li Mocheng: "What did you do at the City Lord's Mansion today?"

Li Mocheng hesitated for a moment, then said honestly: "I unexpectedly met an adult, he is a master of formations. Today I went to the City Lord's Mansion to watch him set up formations. I have benefited a lot from this time... "

The parents looked at him in surprise after hearing this. Their son had a very narrow social circle and always kept silent. How could he still meet important people?

Seeing the strange looks in his parents' eyes, Li Mocheng also gave a wry smile and said, "This thing is very magical, and I can't explain it to you. But don't worry, the big shots won't harm me, and I don't deserve anything." Then the big shots will take care of you."

The parents thought it made sense when they heard it. Their family background and their son themselves knew that there was indeed nothing worth worrying about for the big shots in the City Lord's Mansion. If their daughter is noticed by a big shot, they are worried about whether they are interested in their daughter's beauty. But this son...as long as he doesn't get his waist cut off.

After Li Mocheng explained his affairs, he asked strangely: "I saw a guest at home, who is here?"

Father Li and Mother Li looked at each other, and then said: "It's Zhenzhen's friend, the friend who often comes to pick Zhenzhen up for class. She didn't come into our house before. I don't know why today, but she looks very depressed." It looks like I’m in Zhenzhen’s room now.”

Li Mocheng nodded after hearing this. It was normal for his parents to have such doubts. Although Luo Zhenzhen came to pick up Li Mozhen from school almost every day, she had never entered the Li family's house, nor had she greeted Li's father and mother. The daughter-in-law is able to be friends with Li Mozhen because of her talent and ability rather than Li Mozhen's family background, so she will not be friends with Li Mozhen's family at all.

The family of three chatted for a while, and then the father went out to find out when work would resume, while Li's mother went to buy vegetables and cook. Li Mocheng also walked up the stairs, planning to return to his room.

When he reached the second floor, the door of Li Mozhen's room suddenly opened. Li Mozhen walked out, stopped Li Mocheng and asked, "What did you do in the City Lord's Mansion today?"

Li Mocheng glanced towards his sister's room and saw Luo Zhenzhen sitting in the room unusually depressed, seemingly still crying. He looked away and explained to Li Mozhen. Li Mozhen frowned and said, "Big shot... Do you still know big shots?"

Li Mocheng said helplessly: "It's just a one-time relationship, but others still remember me..."

Before he finished speaking, Luo Zhenzhen suddenly rushed out of the room, grabbed Li Mocheng's hand and said, "Li Mocheng, you said you know the big shots in the City Lord's Mansion? Can you take me with you?" Go and meet this big shot?" She looked at Li Mocheng with hopeful eyes, her pitiful eyes full of pleading. Li Mocheng was immediately in a dilemma, but at this moment, he saw Li Mozhen standing behind Luo Zhenzhen, shaking his head at him, indicating his rejection.

Li Mocheng forced out a smile and said, "I say I know him, but I'm not qualified to meet this gentleman, let alone bring someone to meet him. I'm afraid I can't help you with this matter."

Hearing Li Mocheng's answer, Luo Zhenzhen's expression suddenly became extremely disappointed, but she immediately cheered up, grabbed Li Mocheng's hand and continued: "Please ask Brother Li for me. If it can be done, I will definitely never forget the kindness of my brother Li."

Li Mocheng was a soft-hearted person, and when he was begged by this man, he felt a little soft-hearted. Thinking that she is my sister's friend, if I can help...

But before he finished thinking, he saw his sister hugging Luo Zhenzhen gently and said gently: "Zhenzhen, don't worry. If my brother has a way, he will definitely help you. You also know our family background. I'm afraid it's really embarrassing for my brother. Don't worry, maybe my uncle was wronged and he might be back in a few days."

As she spoke, she glared at Li Mocheng. She knows Li Mo Cheng's good-natured character, Mo Ruomei, and she naturally won't let Li Mo Cheng agree to anything easily. If Li Mocheng hated that big shot, wouldn't it mean that instead of benefiting him, he would be in a state of disgrace?

The disappointed Luo Zhenzhen was persuaded to go back, and Li Mocheng was also driven back to the room by Li Mozhen.

In the next few days, the City Defense Department attacked everywhere. Finally, all the demons were captured. These demons were not unknown, and there were more than 300 of them.

This group of demons practice some kind of magic and specifically feed on the hearts of monks. By devouring the hearts, they can obtain the talents, magical powers and cultivation of the heart monks. The more hearts they devour, the stronger these monsters' talents, cultivation and magical powers become. But this magic has a drawback, that is, swallowing too many hearts will make the demon fall into madness.

Devouring the same kind is against the laws of nature. In this process, punishment will inevitably be imposed. However, there are still many monks who are willing to take this path. The fundamental reason is because they want to take a shortcut in practice. There are many monks who clearly know that this will have huge sequelae, but they will tell themselves that they just need to eat a few hearts and get some benefits to make up for themselves.

However, this simple and easy method is addictive. By devouring the heart, you can gain cultivation and your talents can skyrocket. Who can resist this? The more it swallows, the more chaotic its spirit will be, and the harder it will be to break free. After this vicious cycle, almost no one can escape.

The source of this magic is Qian Ji Yao Dao. Qian Ji Yao Dao has been enlightened for a long time and I knew he had this kind of magic before. But in the past, he was very cautious in spreading black magic, and there were not many monsters who got this magic, and most of these people spread it in rural towns far away from big cities.

But a few decades ago, the Qianji Demon Dao suddenly became more active, and there were more and more demons. Now he even entered the city and began to harm the monks in the city.

Unlike those small places outside, there are a large number of monks in the city, and there are also many high-level monks. If they are swallowed like this, the cultivation and talents of these monsters will be greatly improved, which will affect the safety of the city.

There was no trace of the Qian Ji Demon Dao among the captured demons. This demon Dao was really cunning, and there were no monks who had actually seen this person. Even high-ranking demons like Luo Tianyou only exchange letters with Qianji Demon Dao and have never met a real person at all.

Several god-transformation monks in charge of this matter met again, and everyone's faces looked relaxed at this moment. General Liang clasped his fists in front of everyone and said: "Thanks to everyone's help, we were able to solve this demonic rebellion in such a short time. If this happens, the City Lord's Mansion will definitely pay a heavy reward."

After he said this, the others nodded with satisfaction and said, "General, you're welcome. We didn't do anything. It's thanks to Master Zhang's formation that Master Zhang took the greatest credit."

General Liang also clasped his fists and saluted Zhang Miao, and said: "Thanks to Master Zhang's help this time, otherwise we would really have no way to deal with these monsters. If Master Zhang needs anything, he can ask it to our city lord's mansion. After the city lord heard about this, He will also come back from outside, and he will be rewarded heavily."

General Liang was very polite and sincere. Zhang Miao nodded indifferently and said, "General, you're too polite. I just did it casually, it's nothing."

No one took his modesty seriously. Everyone now knows Zhang Miao's strength. Not to mention other things, just the method of setting up the formation and the cultivation of this formation are enough to convince everyone, let alone the entire Dongjiao Mansion. , even the entire Xuanhuang world may not have a formation master like Zhang Miao. When meeting such a capable person, everyone respects them very much.

Zhang Miao thought for a moment and asked, "How are you going to deal with these monsters?"

Hearing Zhang Miao's question, General Liang straightened his expression and said, "I was going to kill them all to set the record straight, but the city lord is coming back. How to deal with this matter in the end depends on the city lord's decision."

Zhang Miao nodded, and then asked: "What should we do with the Qianji Demon Dao? Should we continue to arrest him?"

General Liang shook his head and said: "I'm afraid Qianji Demon Dao has left Dongjiao Prefecture. If we can't catch him, there's nothing we can do. We can only see if other prefectures can catch him."

Each state in the Xuanhuang Realm has a strong degree of autonomy. Basically, if it crosses the border, it has nothing to do with it. If this Qian Ji Demon Dao spreads to other prefectures, it will have nothing to do with Dongjiao Prefecture. It feels like a dead Taoist friend but a poor Taoist.

Hearing what General Liang said, Zhang Miao had nothing to say. He had done this easily, and then he said: "In that case, General, please find a place for me to stay. I still need to stay here." a period of time."
