Beginning to practice immortality as a refugee

Chapter 365 Departure
Lu Zhi was overjoyed.

I was worried about how to get into the ranks of the Three Black Masters, so Liu Yaoyao gave me a chance.

It's really hard to find anything without wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort at all to get there.

"Fellow Daoist Liu..." he said, pretending to be hesitant, "I've heard about the Demon Country."

"A golden elixir demon king is in charge of a land with a radius of thousands of miles, and his management is very negligent. There are also many little foundation-building demon kings occupying various hills below, and they are not very obedient."

"It's not as peaceful as our human realm."

"Furthermore, the demon clan has a tradition of treating humans as two-legged sheep. I'm afraid this spiritual stone won't be very profitable."

"Also, I've heard of the Three Black Masters. It's said that they can suppress the lives of disciples. They are very tough. If I become a follower, I'm afraid I'll be suppressed at the same time."

"Forget it, I'd better not go into this muddy water and just sell my materials to make some stable money."

"That one spiritual crystal can be used as a discount for the cost of visiting the stall next time."

He saw there was a door and smiled.

Nothing to say that day.

This time he scanned it carefully with his spiritual consciousness, and there was nothing wrong with the beast armor.

The two gritted their teeth and agreed.

"What a waste of natural resources. Who can do it? Just remove the limbs of the puppet. Why did the puppet's heart also be smashed so much?"

Liu Yaoyao was anxious.

After taking a closer look, Master Mo exclaimed, he is indeed a professional.

He scratched the pile of fragments with his left hand and picked them with his right hand, dividing them into ten piles and adding four or five puppet hearts.

It is best to make it look like riding an animal, with an old-fashioned appearance, and just choose an ordinary domestic animal in appearance, not too eye-catching.

Lu Ye then turned and left.

If the opportunity is right next time, I'm afraid I won't be able to be her grandfather.

In the evening, the stall was closed.

In addition, the foundation building aura needs to be hidden.

After one round trip, it will be enough for you to earn from a year of hard work.

"What a good thing! If you put it together, you can get a few foundation-building puppets."

A family member like Liu Yaoyao is actually confident that she can turn the tasks assigned by her superiors into opportunities to make profits for herself.

The shopkeeper and Master Mo looked at each other and nodded in agreement, willing to pay a high price to send this plague god away.

Master Mo said in shock.

So he pushed almost all the ten foundation-building puppet fragments from the storage bag used by Daoist Jia to the shopkeeper, Master He Mo.

Lu Ye pretended to be hesitant, but finally reluctantly agreed, and both of them were happy.

"Shopkeeper, since Master Mo says this is a good thing, I'll sell it to you!"

The most valuable thing about a puppet is the energy provided by the heart of the mechanism, which is the source of power for foundation-level monk puppets. Four or five of them were recovered on site, but they were not suitable for sale.

He and Liu Yaoyao have only known each other for half a month, and he can become her uncle.

Lu Yimei thought that his gang of monster zombies must know how to strike carefully before they see a ghost. A life-and-death fight is not about stabbing where the fatal thing is.

When the shopkeeper and Master Mo saw him bringing out a pile of junk, he was furious at first, thinking that this guy dared to rip off money.

Lu Ye walked briskly and went to Qingshan Pavilion first. Under the respectful reception of the shopkeeper and Master Mo, he picked up the Beast Armor that had been repaired for free.

He lamented in his heart that this long-established sect seemed to have strict rules on the surface, but in fact, as the number of disciples multiplied, it was riddled with many ills.

"It's too much to bully someone! We clearly agreed on the price last time, so we won't correct the past!"

Liu Yaoyao tried her best to persuade her, saying that although the journey was far away, she had enough manpower and was still on the territory of the Black Tiger Demon King, so it would be safe. One spiritual stone in five days was a huge sum of money.

In fact, she also felt that Master Sanhei was too tough, and she was afraid that this trip would be inappropriate, so she was thinking about how to get out of this hot job. Seeing Lu Ye now was like seeing a walking spiritual stone, how could she let it go.

He glanced sideways at Master Mo and whispered.

"Huh? Are these the remains of ten foundation-level mechanism puppets?"

After he left, the shopkeeper in the private room slapped him down.

As for strength, I hope that speed is first, carrying punch second, and the attack can be so-so.

Lu Ye also said that if he comes back in half a month, he must give him another repaired foundation-building puppet.

Lu Ye remembered that his stall had not been doing well recently. After all, recycling and refining precious metal spiritual materials from those puppet fragments was too troublesome. Foundation-building monks looked down upon them, and Qi-training monks lacked mana and could not reach them.

It's surprising that Lu Ye's business is so good.

"You two, do you want to accept these things?"

She just said it casually out of curiosity, but now the more she thinks about it, the more she feels that this plan is feasible. It will save her from hard work and she can also earn spiritual stones.

This time, I and a few of my surname brothers were racking their brains to think of how to sneak into the accompanying team, but they didn't expect that they could sneak in just because they were given the chance.

"This guy is here to take advantage of us. We have worked hard for a year to make his wedding dress!"

"Why don't you, Master Mo, try to trick the foundation-building puppet you gave him this time? Let's pay a high price to help Jie Xiu kill him."

"I'm afraid that the other party will take advantage of me endlessly. What should I do?"

Master Mo's expression changed from gloomy to bright, and finally he sighed and shook his head.

"Shopkeeper, let's just admit defeat if we accidentally kicked the iron plate!"

"If nothing else, this person can take out the remains of ten foundation-building puppets. Think about how much energy he or the organization behind him has?"

"I checked. These puppets were smashed by a group of people and then recovered almost intact."

"If it was all his fault, how terrible would it be?"

"Shopkeeper, let's just endure it for now!"

"After half a month, I will give him a puppet and I won't know how to do anything. Maybe the other party will stop pestering him in the future?" Master Mo looked distressed.

The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and could only agree.

He thought to himself - sometimes knowing too much can be troublesome, thinking too much before and after.

But if he came out of the spirit stone alone to find work for Jie Xiu, he didn't want to suffer the loss, so he had no choice but to give up.

Lu Ye left the shop, turned left and right around a few streets, and soon came to a restaurant.

Relying on tortoise shell communication, Wang Hu, Zhang Cunyi and Shu Chitu were already waiting in the private room on the second floor.

Lu Ye pushed open the door and took off his mask, revealing his true face.

Zhang Cunyi said with a guilty look on his face.

"Brother, it's our incompetence and we haven't found a suitable guarantor yet."

"I'm afraid it won't be easy to sneak in."

"Actually, most of the casual cultivators in the city are not willing to join that team. I heard that many of them are forced to join."

"But these casual cultivators are all related to the people in the sect in a roundabout way. If you really can't do it, let's use a trick to exchange the fake for the real."

Wang Hu slapped his leg.

"Grandma, if you can't get in and become a follower, then let the fourth child sneak up and follow you."

Shu Chitu said with shame.

"It's feasible, but if the Three Black Masters wrap up someone and fly in the sky, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up on the ground."

Lu Ye laughed loudly and said that all sworn brothers don't need to worry, the problem has been solved.

The three people were surprised and asked, and Lu Ye told Liu Yaoyao that if it could really happen, this evil neighbor would be a great help.

Wang Hu slapped his head.

"Yes, we thought wrong!"

"Why are you looking for a guarantor? Just go directly to the casual cultivators who have received the mission and have a relationship with the guarantor and can talk to them. Maybe you can do it if you try a few more times."

The four of them carefully deduced the situation over wine and food.

There is only one human skin mask, so if you take the team route, only Lu Ye can go there alone.

If they can't get into the quota, Lu Ye and Shu Chitu will have to find a way to follow the team, but this is a bad idea. It would be extremely difficult to track a team led by a Foundation-Building Dzogchen monk without letting the other party discover it.

Wang Hu muttered.

"The Tianlun Sect is so troublesome, don't let anything happen again."

Result the next day.

Lu Ye, who was full of hope, went to the stall and met Liu Yaoyao who was furious.

"Those bald people on the mountain are so stupid when they read the Bible and knock wooden fish!"

"Who gave the leader the bad idea!"

"This time, the accompanying casual cultivators are required to be under fifty years old, with strong qi and blood, and above the middle level of qi training!"

"Don't you know that having an old man in the family is like having a treasure? What a joke!"

Lu Ye was stunned. He was indeed not over fifty years old, but the vest he wore was that of an old man.

The folds on this human skin mask are like dense ravines, even more than two fifty.

After finally seeing a glimmer of hope, how could he bear to miss it?
Lu Ye knew Liu Yaoyao's weakness and deliberately shook his head and sighed.

"Forget it, Fellow Daoist Liu, the sect's order must have a profound meaning!"

"Just pretend that we don't have that kind of wealth in our lives. Just remember that the old Taoist still has a spiritual crystal with you."

Liu Yaoyao raised her eyebrows and said angrily.

"Don't even think about it!"

"I, Liu Yaoyao, have set my sights on the spirit stone, and I will take it back even if I die!"

Lu Ye spread his hands.

"This is the rule, but you can't rejuvenate me!"

Liu Yaoyao rolled her eyes and patted her thigh.

"Fellow Daoist Ji, do you have any relatives or friends you know? Please introduce them."

"It's the same method as yesterday. He and I are evenly matched!"

Lu Ye pretended to hesitate.

"Then what good do I get from being an old Taoist? Why don't you, Daoist Liu, give you 40%, I get 10%, and the person I'm looking for gets 50%?"

Liu Yaoyao put her hands on her hips and said confidently. "They are all your relatives and friends, what more benefits do you want?"

"When someone gets a spiritual stone, you get a thank you, that's enough!"

"How can you earn the spiritual stones of your left and right siblings?"

Lu Ye pretended to be dumbfounded and convinced by the wrong reasoning. He rolled his eyes and said that he had a nephew named Ji Buyu who met the requirements and also did some small business in Shannan Yifang City.

Wait for him to send a letter to summon him.

I'm just worried that my nephew is not from the city, he hasn't even stayed there for a day, and I don't know if the superiors will get stuck because of this.

Liu Yaoyao impatiently patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, I will take care of everything. He is from Jinshamen, I can clear his name."

Just wait a few days for my news to be reconciled with the above.

really.

A few days later, Liu Yaoyao told him that the matter was settled and asked nephew Lu Ye to come quickly.

Lu Ye had no choice but to run and ask Zhang Cunyi to act in a play.

He chose a young and recognizable face, copied it on a human skin mask and put it on Zhang Cunyi to act as Ji Buyu.

He uses the Hundred Animals Sect's Hundred Change Technique.

This is a small technique that was discovered together with the God of Cookery back then. It can change a person's body shape and appearance.

There are too many loopholes to fool the foundation-building monks, but there is still no problem if you deal with the Qi-training monks.

There are almost no foundation-building monks in Linyunfang City. If they are encountered, it has nothing to do with them and they will not be bored to expose this little trick.

Lu Ye used the Variety Technique, shrinking his bones and changing his shape to pretend to be Ji Shiyu. Anyway, he was familiar with his daily gait and posture, so it was good to perform in his true colors.

As for Zhang Cunyi, he followed Lu Ye the whole time without saying a word.

Liu Yaoyao curiously asked why your nephew didn't say a word because he was probably mute.

Lu Ye replied, his name is Buyu, doesn’t he like to talk?

Liu Yaoyao didn't care whether Ji Shiyu's nephew could tell him or not, and once again reiterated the 50-50 spirit stone issue during the round trip.

Lu Ye nodded fiercely, and she felt relieved.

So I passed the test smoothly.

Soon, half a month passed by in a hurry.

Early this morning, the morning light began to rise.

At the gate of Linyunfang City, there were twenty or thirty casual cultivators gathered together, not in a queue, but in groups of three or five, including men and women.

All of them were under the age of fifty, and they had bulging storage bags around their waists. Most of them wore two or three storage bags, and some of them who were rich even wore four or five storage bags. They looked like they were going on a long trip.

In addition, most of these casual cultivators are equipped with mounts. This place is located on the North Sand Bank, bordering the Demon Kingdom. There are many beasts with demon blood that are born from the union of demons and animals. They have strong energy and blood and can run far better than ordinary BMWs.

It was common for someone to ride a tiger or a leopard. The last person to ride was an exotic horse with scales on its legs.

Looking carefully, most of them have sad faces and no energy.

There were some indigenous casual cultivators in the city who got up early. They all looked at the casual cultivators outside the gate with sympathy.

"Following the Three Black Masters to the Demon Kingdom is going to make things worse. It's a sign of great misfortune!"

"Don't tell me, do these dozens of young and energetic casual cultivators look like blood food given to the demon king?"

"Hey... stop talking, it sounds scary..."

at this time.

At the corner of the street, a gray donkey was galloping towards him.

This donkey has thin legs and a big belly, a head with long ears and a white-haired face. There is also a young Taoist priest with a long face hunched over it, wearing a gray Taoist robe.

Taking a quick look, I saw that the two were similar in color, and they looked like a human body growing out of a donkey.

Looking carefully, I found that the young Taoist above also had a long white face, and he actually looked like a master and servant like the donkey.

If you look closely, you will see that although the donkey's hooves are thin, it is clear that the whole body is made of metal. It tilts its head and twists its mouth, and its mouth is full of steel teeth. Its eyes are flashing red. It is stupid and fierce. You can still vaguely hear the components inside when walking. The sound of turning turned out to be a mechanical puppet beast.

If there is any shortcoming, it is that the donkey looks too small, less than half a foot tall and long, and has nothing to do with being tall and powerful.

This man and beast walked out of the gate of Fangshi and stood silently beside the crowd. Apparently he was also a member of the entourage of the three black masters this time.

Lu Ye rode a gray donkey, his eyes swept among the entourage, and secretly took note of their appearance.

He found that many people were also looking at him, mostly on the donkey crotch.

"Master Mo is so narrow-minded!"

"I made an ordinary domestic animal. I thought it was a horse, but a mule was not enough, and it turned out to be a mechanical donkey for me!"

"Forget about the donkey, it's still so thin."

"Although he's fast, can take a beating, and can attack so-so, why is it so annoying?"

"The color is not pleasing to the eye. It's all gray, but it's the same color as my robe..."

"When I ride on this donkey, it's almost the same as standing on the ground."

"Everyone is taller than me. It's really annoying."

Lu Ye guessed that Master Mo had delayed delivering the goods to him until he was about to set off this morning. Could it be that he wanted to see himself make a fool of himself?
I must talk to him carefully next time.

For example, the casual cultivator riding a lion next to him was half his body taller than him. When Lu Ye moved his neck, he could only see his waist.

"Fellow Taoist," the casual cultivator got off the majestic lion, "I would like to give you a gift. This is polite."

"Your mount is quite unique."

"It's not yet time to set off. There are beasts in the city. I might as well use a ferocious mount as a helper. I'm afraid this trip to the Demon Kingdom will be uneven."

Lu Ye's face trembled slightly. He was now wearing a vest that was silent and taciturn, and he cherished his words like gold.

"Ji Buyu," he pointed at himself, then bent down, "Thank you fellow Taoist for reminding me."

Lu Ye touched the pointed ears of the gray donkey under his crotch.

"This donkey is fast and has a strong skin, so I won't change it."

Seeing that he persisted, Shi Yiwen stopped trying to persuade him and tried to chat a few more words. He found that Ji Buyu was really not good at words, so he lost interest in talking and turned around to mingle with other casual cultivators.

Lu Ye pricked up his ears and listened.

The content of these casual cultivators' chats with each other is also very interesting. Most of them ask each other who their backers are in the mountain gate and compare their strengths.

Then they each lamented their bad luck in being assigned to participate in the training and escorting of this Lao Shizi.

Everyone knows that the Lingshi may not be so easy to earn this time.

In the end, everyone sighed together. Now that the matter has come to this, we can only help each other and support each other.

Among the crowd.

There is a fat, bald man with a strong scent of sandalwood on his body. All he needs is a scar on his head. He can become a monk of the Tianlun Sect by putting on his cassock.

He has a strong and close backer. He is a relative of Sanhei Shitai's family who has not been born in the fifth service. He is recommended as the leader by everyone. His name is Teng Kuan, who is the most outstanding and conspicuous.

he shouted.

"Since we are lucky enough to travel together today, it is fate."

"Serve all the nuns of the Tianlun Sect well, keep your duties, and help each other, and you will definitely return safely."

"Master Tai is my family member. I don't look at the monk's face or the Buddha's face, just because everyone has the same surname as Teng. I will try my best to help you arrange some easy and safe work."

"Well, I'm just a humble person, so I can't help too many people."

Teng Kuan said that he couldn't help too many people, but a strange light shone in his eyes. It was the familiar light of casual cultivators looking forward to spiritual stones.

Many people didn't move, but there were still a few monks who gathered around, murmuring flattering words and handing over the spirit stones with a pull of their sleeves.

Lu Ye looked on coldly, while Shi Yiwen sneered from the side - who can be sent here to be truly favored?
This Teng Kuan really dares to collect any spiritual stone.

Because of what Teng Kuan did among the casual cultivators, the rest of the cultivators also formed cliques, forming groups based on their close relationships.

In the midst of a commotion.

A casual cultivator suddenly pointed to the horizon and whispered.

"Could it be that old man Shenni is here?"

Everyone hurriedly looked up and saw a ray of light coming from the horizon so fast that it almost arrived in the blink of an eye.

It turned out that the escaping light was dim in color, almost the same as the sky. In addition, the movement was small, and it arrived in front of everyone quietly.

It turned out to be a flying boat.

The boat descended from the sky.

Master Sanhei and the nuns walked out of it. There were two nuns on her left and right. Her complexion was as smooth as white porcelain. She was very pretty and had long hair.

The other nun has a wheat complexion and wears a bhikkhu hat. There is no hair between the hat and the swan's neck, and his head is completely shaved.

Then came a dozen female nuns, half with long hair and half with hats.

All the cultivators hurriedly saluted and said in unison that they had seen the nun.

Master Sanhei first glanced at everyone coldly, and then looked at Teng Kuan with a pair of sharp eyes.

"Are you from my Teng family?"

Teng Kuan nodded and knelt down on the ground in flattery.

"Returning to Shenni, the youngest one is the seventieth of the Teng family..."

Snapped!
Master Sanhei was so impatient that he slapped him down and pushed his whole body into the ground. Although he was not dead, he was seriously injured. His legs and feet twitched and he vomited blood.

"Humph," the teacher raised his eyebrows and looked around, "If you are a member of the Teng family, you should know my temper!"

"What's the matter with having someone else's spirit stone in your sleeve?"

"Recruiting you casual cultivators, you only need to remember one thing, that is, you must obey orders on the road. If you dare to question and shirk the blame, you will be killed by the demon clan!"

"Did you hear that?"

The monks were trembling with fear after hearing this, and they were all trembling like quails.

This old lunatic has sharp eyes and is merciless. He even beats his own family members when they meet, let alone others.

Lu Ye didn't care what others thought, and kept his eyes fixed on the nun wearing a hat next to Master Sanhei.

Perhaps because of becoming a monk, even his original pair of sword eyebrows have turned into the elegant style of distant mountain dark eyebrows. His eyebrows are slightly wrinkled, and his eyes seem as calm as an ancient well but hide a wild and unruly look.

Lu Ye's breath tightened and he finally saw Furong again.
