From clam spirit to mirage dragon fairy

Chapter 24 Incense and War

In the cave——

"Brother, I got several pills. Let's eat them together."

Wugou was worried that Guyang would lose because he didn't grab the Emperor's Liquid, so he generously gave the five Emperor's Liquid to Guyang.

"Sister, this thing will be of great help to you in repairing the Yinshen. I'll give it all to you."

Guyang had no idea of ​​absorbing the Emperor's Flow Serum, even though it was very useful.

But Gu Yang felt that he had gained a lot.

Those imperial fluids were just the condensed lunar moonlight in the air, but in fact, Gu Yang himself sucked more moonlight into his body, which was enough for him to digest for a while.

"Hehe, you are so kind, little brother."

Wu Guan doesn't know what politeness means yet. She only knows that this is a gift from her younger brother and she likes it very much.

Guyang and Wugou began to refine the Emperor's Liquid, and a trace of cool air accompanied by a hazy white brilliance enveloped Wugou's Yin Shen.

Sure enough, the last bit of evil spirit was wiped away, and Wu Gu's Yin Shen began to glow.

Only then did Gu Yang feel relieved.

He also gained a lot.

The lunar moonlight can very well eliminate the fatigue on the soul, and can also repair the damage on the body burned by the sun fire.

The twelve pearls absorbed a large amount of lunar moonlight and gradually underwent qualitative changes. Each pearl seemed to be filled with bright moonlight.

"Brother, those people are so noisy."

The old wounds have been healed and his innocent nature has been restored.

He complained after the practice.

"those people?"

Guyang was confused.

"There are so many people arguing in my head and asking for things from me. It's so annoying."

Muzan's ghost reappeared and banged his head.

"Are they those colorful clouds of smoke?"

Guyang suddenly thought of the smoke and clouds that suddenly appeared in the Wugou Soul Space.

"Uh-huh."

Muzan nodded his head.

"let me see."

Guyang once again entered Wu Gu's soul space.

Those smoke clouds have been ignored for the past few days, but they have become a bit thicker.

Gu Yang tentatively sent his spiritual thoughts into it, and a noisy voice immediately entered his mind.

"I beg the Clam Fairy Queen to bless me and bring me home safely and with a full load."

"I beg the Clam Fairy to bless me to catch more fish today. I will burn more incense sticks for you when I come back."

"I ask the Clam Fairy Queen to keep my son healthy and free from disasters and diseases."

"I ask the Clam Fairy Queen to bless my business with prosperity and wealth."

"I beg the Clam Fairy to help me find a good wife, and I will offer you a big pig's head."

"I ask the Clam Fairy Queen to bless you with good weather and good harvests this year."

……

My ears are filled with the sound of prayer, and I can even taste it carefully and see the picture transmission.

It was a small temple built in the corner of the pier.

The small one is like a land temple in the countryside. It is said to be a temple, but it is actually a shrine.

There is a beautiful girl sitting in a clam shell with a lotus seal on her hand. Although it is very rough, Gu Yang can still recognize it at a glance. It is made in the shape of Wu Gu.

The fishermen coming and going will consciously come to pay homage when they get on and off the boat.

Some village girls and farmers will also carry baskets and place some melons, fruit cakes and other tributes, light a pillar of fragrance and bow earnestly to pray for peace and success.

"Those mortals built a temple for Wu Gu!"

Guyang didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

Looking at the Internet literature circle, there are naturally many benefits to the demon tribe setting up a temple to receive incense.

The power of incense and aspiration can not only increase your magic power and improve your Taoism, but also take the opportunity to gather merit and resolve disasters.

There is no need to talk about other things like refining artifacts, magical weapons, elixirs, and healing wounds and repairing souls.

But there are pros and cons.

The incense of mortals is not received in vain, it must be repaid.

If you just enjoy the incense and do nothing, and offend those mortals who destroy mountains and temples, you will immediately suffer backlash.

At the least, one's cultivation level will be greatly reduced, and a catastrophe is imminent; at the most serious one, one will be entangled in evil obstacles and fall into reincarnation forever.

The most important thing to be wary of is the statement that "incense is poisonous".

Incense contains various human desires. If it cannot be refined in time, it can easily affect the soul and Taoist heart and turn oneself into a soulless and unconscious flesh puppet.

Gu Yang didn't know whether he should let Wu Kuan absorb the incense. He personally couldn't make this decision for Wu Kuan.

So Gu Yang could only tell Wugou one by one about some of his speculations.

"Incense, it turns out this is incense."

Muzan looked happy.

"Brother, I also have incense to offer."

Muzan was as happy as a child who got candy.

It seems that she wants to obtain these incense.

However, Gu Yang was still a little worried.

"Okay, little brother. The Heart Sutra passed down to me by Sister Longnu contains the method of refining incense."

Wu Guo saw Gu Yang's worry and calmed Gu Yang generously.

"Nevertheless, sister, I think you should not absorb these incense to increase your cultivation.

It is better to refine these incense into a treasure and make it into a magic weapon for self-protection.

In this way, you can have more means without worrying about affecting your Taoist heart.

And what are the prayers of believers.

Not everyone’s prayers will be satisfied, and prayers must be considered as appropriate. "

Guyang sincerely persuaded Wu Gu.

"Okay, okay, just listen to my little brother."

Wugou was still immersed in the joy of having incense, and he didn't know if he listened to Guyang's persuasion.

Then surrounding the issue of incense, Gu Yang began to search for the "experience" left to him by his predecessors.With Wugou's innocent temperament, if Gu Yang wasn't watching from the side, he might have been able to respond to requests.

Finally, Guyang gave Wujia some suggestions.

First, it only protects the safety of people entering the water, but does not guarantee how many fish they can catch.

Second, you can eliminate disasters and cure diseases for good people as appropriate, but you cannot interfere with the cycle of life and death.

Third, we can follow the weather and bless both sides of the lake with good weather, but we cannot go against the law of heaven.

Fourth, any incense that is beyond the scope of ability, such as marriage, wealth and children, will not be accepted.

Fifth, you cannot neglect your own practice just because you are taking care of believers.

Wuji agreed to Gu Yang's suggestion.

But from that day on, Wu Gu could no longer stay in the cave to practice.

Every night Wujiu would come out of his body to inspect the situation of believers on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

If it weren't for the need to absorb the moonlight every month, Wu Kuai might not have stayed in the cave on the fifteenth day.

And Guyang also lost his stable life.

The entire Yingyue Lake must be inspected every day to ensure that those who enter the water will not drown.

It's okay during the day. After absorbing the pure Yang Qi, there is nothing important.

But it won’t work at night, and Guyang also needs to practice.

However, some areas of Yingyue Lake are even more lively at night than during the day.

It’s those flower boats.

The climate in the south is pleasant and full of spiritual energy, so there are countless talented people and beautiful people.

This brothel and boathouse has become a major feature of the South.

The small Yingyue Lake is only a hundred miles in radius, but there are more than 300 flower boats.

Fortunately, the ship is well guarded and manned.

What bothers Guyang the most are those poor scholars who have no money and are still arty.

Two or three close friends in a small boat, a few side dishes and a pot of wine, singing and chatting to the moon.

Don’t you think it’s very elegant and interesting?
But how about just drinking alone in the lake with a few people alive at night? Aren't you afraid of falling into the lake and drowning when you get drunk?
However, these people still enjoyed it, causing Guyang to work overtime at night, which seriously affected his practice.

But Guyang is not without gains these days.

Those people chatted and criticized current affairs, which made Gu Yang better understand the humanities and interesting things in this world.

Occasionally, some talented people mentioned Taoism and Buddhism in their discussions. Although it may be superficial, Guyang benefited a lot from his enlightenment.

This may be a blessing in disguise.

In addition, Guyang also became more familiar with the waters of Yingyue Lake.

After the crocodile spirit and three other monsters made trouble, all the monsters in the lake were reduced sharply. The only four that could be called "monsters" were Guyang, Wu Guo, Lao Gui and Carp King.

There are only a few other water tribes who have just transformed into demons.

Therefore, there are a lot of vacancies at the spiritual vein nodes at the bottom of the lake, and there is less hassle of fighting for spiritual energy.

Magikarp has returned to its crater, where it has been sleeping for the past few days.

It was only later that Gu Yang remembered that the inner elixir and body of the electric eel demon were missing and must have been quietly taken away by Carp King.

After it digests the electric eel demon's inner elixir, it should be able to make further progress, and it might even be able to form an elixir in one fell swoop.

The old turtle was still the same, and stopped moving as soon as he lay down.

However, the descendants left by the crocodile spirit made a little noise.

At that time, in order to kill the three demons, those little things Guyang didn't have time to eradicate them.

After those crocodiles lost the blessing of their ancestors, some fled to other waters, and some were eaten by the Carp King.

Although the remaining small crocodiles injured a few people, they were wiped out by humans.

On the other hand, the offspring of electric eels and puffer fish are a bit miserable.

Since Guyang taught humans how to use these two kinds of fish, people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have had two more delicacies on their tables.

Because electric eels are difficult to catch and demand is high, prices are set very high.

Even if it is not for food, I still want to keep one at home.

Because this thing will discharge electricity.

Thunder and lightning have always been said to drive away evil spirits and avoid evil in feudal society.

Those people may have raised electric eels as "spiritual animals" for their homes.

So in just over half a year, the electric eels in the lake were almost driven to extinction.

As for the pufferfish, it is highly poisonous but is indeed delicious, so it has a small audience. It is not yet on the verge of extinction, but its number has dropped sharply.

Just practicing and working at the same time, time passed day by day.

It's winter again in a blink of an eye.

There are a lot fewer flower boats on the lake. After all, it’s really cold on the lake.

On this day, Guyang inspected the entire water area as usual, but suddenly found that all the flower boats were driven to the shore by the government officials.

The colorful ribbons decorated with bright red lanterns were all replaced with black and white.

Guyang eavesdropped on their conversation and found out that Emperor Chongde of the Great Yin Dynasty passed away a few days ago, so the whole country was in mourning for three months. They were not allowed to eat meat, have boudoir pleasures, get married, and wear red or green clothes.

Don't worry about this Guyang, and it won't affect him.

Just listening to the private discussions among those students, it seems that Emperor Chongde did not appoint a crown prince before his death.

This is a big deal.

Guyang has also watched many historical dramas.

The old emperor died without establishing a crown prince.

Then his sons and grandsons must not beat people's brains into dog brains.

Facts are pretty much the same.

A few days later another news came.

The "King of Qin", the legitimate grandson of Emperor Chongde and the late crown prince, was supported by the ministers and succeeded Lingqian to the title of "Taihe".

But his uncles were not convinced.

The third prince, Prince Jin, refused to accept the offer and was captured and imprisoned on the spot.

The sixth prince, Prince Jing, the eighth prince, Prince Chu, and the ninth prince, Prince Qi, conspired to force the palace to be ambushed by the new emperor and all died.

The fifth prince, King Yan, was stationed in northern Xinjiang. After hearing the news, he sent [-] troops to attack the capital.

The Twelve Princes of Dian, the king of Dian, held the southern border and raised [-] troops under the banner of "Jingnan" to march northward.

The second prince's legitimate son, King Han, the fourth prince's legitimate son, King Yong, and the seventh prince's legitimate son, King Wei, also raised troops from all directions to oppose the new emperor.

For a time, the entire Yin Dynasty was in chaos.
