I am a monster in both worlds

Chapter 68 The chess ghost wants revenge

After half a month.

at night.

Yi Bai is hiding in a cave in a mountain.

He used the anvil's tail to memorize the record "boiled stone" in front of him.

It is also difficult for him to learn this technique.

The difficulty is far more difficult than 'Praying for Rain'.

The first part of this Taoist record explains to him what Taoist alchemy is.

The Taoist method is to swallow the inner elixir into the abdomen in one mouthful, and use the elixir externally.

In addition to inner elixirs, Taoism also has outer elixirs.

In layman's terms, external elixirs are the so-called 'alchemy', where the essence is gathered into elixirs and taken orally to increase spiritual practice.

There are many things to pay attention to in refining the elixir. It is recorded in the book that if you want to refine the elixir, you need to go to a place that is inaccessible to people and has a beautiful place in the world. Otherwise, 'evil energy will enter and the elixir will not be successful'.

For another example, the bottom of the alchemy furnace required for refining the outer elixir needs to be completely sealed, and the furnace body needs to have eight holes to control the direction of the air inlet, corresponding to the Bagua.

Complex and detailed.

Yi Bai knew that other alchemy techniques were far beyond what he, a monster, could master.

Fortunately, it is recorded in the book that the information about the technique of 'boiling stone' is only similar to the technique of external alchemy.

Generally speaking, this technique is not a true alchemy, but a Taoist technique that removes the dross and gathers the essence.

It can be understood as a simplified version.

By mastering this technique, one can also boil stones into food in the mountains.

Yi Bai figured it out, but if he wanted to truly learn the Taoist technique of "cooking stones", he still had to try it.

There is currently nothing to try.

Yi Bai died down.

He rolled up the book with his tail and headed towards Dongyue Temple.

I borrowed the book for half a month and it’s time to return it.

……

Cup of tea.

Yi Bai visits Dongyue Temple again.

When the two statues at the door saw Yi Bai's arrival, they shone with golden light.

From the statue on the left, a big man carrying an eagle stepped out and looked at Yi Bai with helplessness in his eyes.

"Come to the temple to pray again?"

The big man holding the eagle was silent for a while and then said.

"Exactly."

Yi Bai's evil spirit swayed in front of the temple, catching people's eyes.

"Hold on."

The big man holding the eagle nodded and walked into the temple.

Yi Bai made no move and waited quietly in front of the temple gate.

After half a sound.

The temple door creaked, and a head poked out.

Yi Bai looked around.

The one at the temple gate is not the cave chess ghost.

"Dragon, come in quickly. My uncle is still resting and hasn't gotten up yet."

The chess ghost waved to Yi Bai and pushed the temple door open.

Yi Bai glanced at the statue on the right and saw that it didn't respond, so he entered the temple openly.

As soon as he entered the temple.

The chess ghost closed the temple door.

Yi Bai looked at the chess ghost strangely, not knowing why.

"I came here to return the Taoist records to your uncle, but I don't have time to play chess with you."

Yi Bai speaks human words.

"Dragon, I don't want to play chess with you, I have stopped playing chess!"

The chess ghost waved his hand.

"It's okay to quit."

Yi Bai murmured to himself, food is not scary, food and fun-loving are scary.

Using his tail, he placed the book that recorded "boiled stone" in front of the chess ghost and planned to leave.

The chess ghost blocked Yi Bai's path.

"Dragon! Wait a moment!"

The chess ghost said.

"What else?"

Yi Bai looked at the chess ghost.

"I want to go out and ask the dragon to help me!"

The chess ghost gritted his teeth and fell to his knees with a pop.

"what for?"

"My uncle told the two eagle and tiger gods outside the door to keep an eye on me and not let me go out. You are a powerful dragon. The eagle and tiger gods are afraid of you and will definitely take me out."

When Yi Bai heard this, the whole gang fell silent. He glanced outside the door, wondering if the two gods could hear him.

Although it was true that the two gods were no match for him, saying so blatantly was a bit excessive.

"What do you want to do when you go out? Don't you want to see your uncle?"

Yi Bai asked.

"I, I want to go out and take revenge!"

The chess ghost said through gritted teeth.

"Revenge? What do you mean?" Yi Bai asked again.

"When my uncle took me back to the temple, he told me that when I was addicted to chess, I lost all my family wealth and was angry with my biological father. It was not because I was crazy, but because of the evil spells used by the people who often played chess with me. Even death is inseparable from him, that person caused me such misery, I don’t want to let him go!"

The chess ghost was filled with resentment.

"Even so, you are addicted to chess. Is it possible that it's a lie?"

Yi Bai saw that the chess ghost might have a grievance.

But it is true that he is addicted to chess and has a gambling habit.

"I accept this matter. If it's just an addiction to chess, with all my wealth, I will never lose it no matter what, let alone sell my ancestral home and make my biological father angry to death. I must take revenge! Please also ask the dragon seed to help me. !”

The chess ghost knelt down and kowtowed heavily to the ground.

"If I help you in this matter, how will you treat me? If I don't help you, how will you treat me?"

"I am grateful to the dragon species for helping me. If I have an afterlife, I will make a grass ring to repay this kindness! If the dragon species does not help, I have no complaints. This has nothing to do with the dragon species."

"That's all, I hope you will give me an academic opportunity, and I will help with this matter."

Yi Bai sighed in his heart.

In the end, the chess ghost was an important factor in letting him learn the art of "cooking stones".

If the chess ghost achieves this goal, he is willing to help.

Moreover, helping the chess ghost can do good deeds and pay off the cause and effect.

"Chen Yong, thank you Dragon Seed!"

The chess ghost knelt down and kowtowed.

"Okay, let me go."

Yi Bai crawled outside the temple.

The chess ghost followed closely behind.

Yi Bai took the chess ghost away from Dongyue Temple.

The statues of gods on both sides of Dongyue Temple were ignored.

Yi Bai successfully brought out the chess ghost.

……

Yi Bai led the chess ghost into the dense forest and stopped.

"Where are you going?"

Yi Bai curled up in front of the tree and looked at the chess ghost.

"Long Zhong, I lived in Jiangshui County during my lifetime, and I need to go north."

The chess ghost said respectfully.

"Jiangshui County?"

Yi Bai was stunned for a moment.

He asked the chess ghost carefully about Jiangshui County.

After repeated inquiries.

Yi Bai confirmed.

The Jiangshui County the chess ghost mentioned was the same place as the Jiangshui County he knew.

In the past, Huang Chenghuang and Huang Xu were located in Jiangshui County.

"Going north, you can reach Jiangshui County... Do you know where Sanjiang County is?"

Yi Bai looked at the chess ghost.

"Long Zhong, Sanjiang County needs to pass through thirteen counties to the north. Where we are now is called Dongjie County, which borders Sanjiang County."

The chess ghost bowed in reply.

Hear this.

Yi Bai understood that on his way to Sanjiang County, he would pass through Jiangshui County.

He just left Jiangshui County a few months ago.

Since he was passing by, he should go inside to pay homage to Huang Chenghuang.

"Let's go. It just so happens that I also want to go to Jiangshui County. If you can follow me, I will protect you on the way."

Yi Bai speaks human words.

If it were anywhere else, he wouldn't be able to help the chess ghost, and he wouldn't even be allowed to get close, unless he openly fights the city god.

Jiangshui County is different.

"Thank you dragon seed!"

The chess ghost burst into tears of gratitude and almost knelt down again.

Yi Bai said nothing, turned around and walked down the mountain.

The chess ghost hurriedly followed.

After all, Yi Bai slowed down a lot, allowing the chess ghost to keep up.

One demon and one ghost spent Zhuxiang's time coming down from the mountain.

While going down the mountain.

Yi Bai walked along the bushes and gravel, glanced at the chess ghost beside him, and saw an imperceptible golden light flying from a distance and landing on the chess ghost.

The chess ghost never noticed.

He saw clearly.

After all, it was his uncle, how could he sit idly by and ignore it.

Yi Bai sighed in his heart.

Knowing that maybe Miao Zhu had been listening and never showed up, he defaulted to leaving the chess ghost.

Yi Bai felt relieved.

The chess ghost has little ability, so he is really worried that the chess ghost will be killed inexplicably.

With his uncle's help, he doesn't need to pay too much attention.

Yi Bai looked north and headed towards Jiangshui County.

The chess ghost follows closely behind...
