fairy flame

Not long after the monk wearing a bamboo hat walked into the store, the door of Jinlinzhai was immediately closed, which made many neighboring shops wonder why they suddenly closed down.

But without a business competitor, these nearby store owners were secretly happy while thinking hard about it.

At this moment, in the elegant room where Luo Yu and Luo Yu were received, a bald monk with ring head and big eyes was discussing something solemnly with the old woman Xiao from Jinlinzhai.

This time the old lady Xiao claimed that she had other important matters and could not accompany Luo Yu to the medicine garden, it seemed that she was waiting for this person.

If Luo Yu were here, he would be shocked immediately when he saw this fat, round-faced bald monk!

There is a slender scar on the face of this person that splits to the corner of the mouth, coupled with big copper bell eyes, at first glance it looks extremely fierce and ugly, but if you look closely, you will find that this person's eyes are clear, and his whole body is full of blood. There is a positive and harmonious atmosphere in the stock, so that anyone who has been in contact with it for a long time will invisibly feel a sense of intimacy.

I have to say that this person is a dead-headed person who makes Luo Yu speechless, even stubborn and a little too extreme. It's not that his heart is so vicious, so Luo Yu won't find it strange, on the contrary Well, this person is the kind of crazy cultivator who has no other ideas other than killing demons and eliminating demons as his lifelong ambition.

This obese monk is none other than Zhang Lingpu who had a friendship with Luo Yu, and also the scar-faced monk from Lanzhou Buddhist sect!

However, the scar-faced monk, who had always been optimistic and positive, looked gloomy at this time, while the old lady Xiao, who had always been kind and kind in Luo Yu's eyes, was full of worry on her face!

"Fellow Daoist Xiao's news is accurate, that witch Yinmiao is really about to leave the customs? This time, the poor monk invited all four juniors who practiced the war Buddha, and the five of us can form a powerful Zen demon formation in this sect." , even if this witch has the cultivation base of the alchemy stage, it is absolutely impossible to escape."

After listening to the old lady Xiao's words, the scar-faced monk didn't enjoy the leisurely taste of the fragrant tea in the cup at all. He narrowed his eyes and said with a cold light.

"Although this news came from inquiring, Master should know that after a while it will be the time of the Yin Moon, when Lan'er's Soul Moon Body will absorb the Nine Nether Purple Qi from the outside world again, and the pain is unbearable Back then, the witch Yinmiao killed Brother Pang but only let Lan'er go. She didn't behave like this demon at all. It wasn't until a few years ago that the old man solved the mystery. , so viciously planted the "soul-condensing demon seed" on Lan'er, who was not yet four years old, so that she would be stimulated to absorb the nine secluded purple energy from the outside world as soon as the yin and moon came for more than ten years, it was an inhuman torture Fortunately, Lan'er has been mentally and resolute since she was a child, and has been clenching her teeth to live until now. According to the records in the classics, people with a soul-moon physique cultivated during the Qi training period, and the amount of Jiuyou Ziqi that can be absorbed in the body is limited. When a 'Lingyou Tianbone' is formed in the body, if you don't take it out, you will definitely die, and the 'Lingyou Tianbone' that can't be taken out in time will also dissipate."

The old lady Xiao had a bitter look on her face, but she seemed to have thought about these words countless times in her heart, and she blurted out without even thinking about it.

Thinking of the scenes where her granddaughter would have been worse than death every year when the moon was full, the old lady Xiao felt like a knife was twisting her heart, and said slowly and tragically.

"The old man used the secret method to check again. The ghost bone in Lan'er's body is almost formed. There is a sense of the soul demon. The Yinmiao witch must also know about it. This person has been planning for many years, and this time he will definitely not let it go. At this opportunity, I would also like to ask Master Lingpu to help me with my years of love. No matter how much I pay, my old body will be willing. I am already in my twilight years, and even if my soul is gone, it’s nothing. I just can’t bear to see Lan’er living in a nightmare. Among them, she has suffered enough in these years!"

After saying this, the old woman Xiao's face was full of sadness, and her voice sounded extremely sad.

It's not that she hasn't thought about a way to save her these years, but if she wants to get rid of the soul demon seed, if she doesn't have the strength at the alchemy stage, she will only ask for trouble. After knowing the 'Lingyou Tiangu', he immediately turned his face and attacked.

Therefore, the past ten years have been like years for the old lady Xiao, but she has only procrastinated until now, and she is really forced to have nowhere to go.

"Do fellow Daoist Xiao and the poor monk still need to see each other like this? If Fellow Daoist Pang hadn't exposed the Yinmiao witch back then, the poor monk should have fallen at that time. It wouldn't have caused Lan'er to have no father and mother since childhood. The poor monk owed you all The Xiao family has one life. We cultivators pay attention to cause and effect, and we must pay back what we pay. This time, even if the poor monk sacrifices his life to defend the Tao, he will not hesitate. As long as the poor monk is around, the Yinmiao witch will not have anything to take advantage of However, this matter must not be publicized, so it will die in your heart, and don't even tell Lan'er. After all, as the elder of the Yunhuan Sect, the Yinmiao witch has arranged a lot of eyeliner around here If the poor monk can't lead her into the formation, even if the five brothers join hands, they won't be able to deal with this temptress!"

The scar-faced monk smiled wryly when he heard the words, but after the corner of his mouth twitched, he put life and death aside, and solemnly reminded him in a different voice.

"Back then, if you were a master, you would have known the true face of the Yinmiao witch, and you would probably have made the same choice as Brother Pang. It has been so many years, and our husband and wife have no intention of blaming the master. Why should you be so obsessed with this matter and delay your practice? , but this time I still have one thing to ask Master, if you can survive this catastrophe safely, please also accept Lan Er as a younger brother, let her follow Master Qingxiu in the future, no matter whether the old body is still alive or not, won't be with her anymore."

In the words of the old lady Xiao, there was suddenly a little desolation, but a very reluctant smile squeezed out of frustration on her face.

"Fellow Daoist, what is the meaning of this! As long as there is a poor monk around, nothing will happen to the two of you. Lan'er and Fellow Daoist have been alone for many years, how can you bear it?"

"My lifespan is running out!"

Before the scar-faced monk finished speaking in surprise, the old lady Xiao pursed her lips in an ugly expression, and interrupted sadly and helplessly.

"Even if there is no accident, the old body will live for another two or three years at most, and it is precisely because Lan'er stayed with the old body since childhood, and the old body watched her grow up. Although I have been hiding it, with Lan'er's intelligence, I am afraid I have long known that something is wrong with my body, but no matter how much pain she endured, she never said it to make me worry. I really feel sorry for this only grandson. Just commit suicide and end this life, instead of knowing that there will be a day when heaven and man will be separated forever, why not take this opportunity to let the old body be in doom, and go to exchange Laner for a nirvana!"

"No! Fellow Daoist Xiao does not agree with this move. This is too cruel for Lan'er. If parting is destined, and reincarnation is determined by its own cause and effect, it is a real sea of ​​suffering that Daoist friends dare not face. The poor monk hopes Fellow Daoist think twice before acting."

Upon hearing this, the scar-faced monk immediately shook his head like a wave drum, and retorted earnestly.

"If karma really exists, then where is the unhappiness of retribution! I have lived for most of my life, and I have never been able to see through the world of mortals like the master. In fact, no one can really see through the world of mortals. Before, the old body will temporarily forget all other troubles."

The old lady Xiao lost control of her emotions for a while, but after all, she is a person who has experienced countless storms, so she said calmly.

"Forget it, if you don't completely kill the Yinmiao Witch this time, then everything else will be empty talk. The poor monk and the four juniors have already made preparations, and this time we will definitely destroy this demon!"

The scar-faced monk knew that it would be fruitless to persuade him again, and after a long sigh, he said with a faint cold light on his face, then turned his head solemnly and looked out the window at the clear and sunny sky, without saying a word, showing a look of deep thought.

After all, this time is to deal with a monk of alchemy. Among the four helpers invited by the scar-faced monk, except for him who has a late foundation cultivation base, the rest are only in the middle stage. The power of the middle-level top-level formation, but that is without any accidents, so the details of how to arrange it need to be carefully discussed between the two.

At this time, the three of Luo Yu, who were already in the medicine garden, didn't know about it. As soon as they entered the place where the beast grass was planted, they began to familiarize themselves with how to practice some common beast grass for the first time, so as to test it Whether it has met the requirements of the old lady Xiao.

Of course, this step was an easy task for Luo Yu's strength as an alchemist. After several small mistakes, he found out the way.

Although Ling'er was slower than Luo Yu in this respect, she was not impetuous at all. I believe that if you try a few more times, practice makes perfect.

However, after Lan'er watched Luo Yu and the two refining medicine for a while, and saw that the two were concentrating on their work without saying a word, she felt bored, and after staying for less than half a day, she found a reason to return alone.

Originally, Luo Yu wanted to take this opportunity to practice more, but there was nothing he could do about it. Since Luo Yu discovered that someone was secretly spying on them in the motorcade not long ago, and after repeatedly checking Luo Yu and Linger many times, he had no choice but to Deliberately leaking a trace of breath to warn the other party, but afterwards Luo Yu felt that the other party directly targeted their beast car at the beginning, obviously targeting Jinlinzhai instead of the two of them.

It is not a strange thing for Luo Yu to feel hostility from the same visitor from a certain shop.

Although Luo Yu is unwilling to understand the interests and grievances among the shops in the square city, Luo Yu is really worried about letting Lan'er, who is only a low-level qi practitioner, leave alone at this moment.

Therefore, after hearing that the woman was leaving, Luo Yu had no choice but to secretly discuss with Ling'er through sound transmission, and then put down the matter at hand and accompanied the woman back to Fangshi.

Perhaps Luo Yu was really overwhelmed, he and Lan'er did not encounter any danger along the way.

After Luo Yu sent Lan'er to Jinlinzhai safely, out of goodwill for the grandparent and grandson, he also informed the old lady Xiao that someone was investigating them.

However, the performance of the latter surprised Luo Yu a little. It seemed that the old lady Xiao knew this would happen, and the gloomy look on her face passed away in a flash. Of course, she thanked Luo Yu politely.

Seeing that the old lady Xiao didn't intend to talk to him in detail, Luo Yu didn't seem surprised and just kept silent. He also knew in his heart that there would be few enemies if he opened a shop in this city.

What also made Luo Yu feel very strange was that it was fine for the old lady Xiao not to be nervous, but after the conversation, she asked Luo Yu not to tell Lan'er about this matter, which made Luo Yu a little surprised.

On the surface, it seemed that he didn't want to worry his granddaughter, but Luo Yu always felt that something was wrong.

But since the old lady Xiao spoke up in person, Luo Yu is still a junior, so she naturally agreed. Anyway, he is not interested in caring about other people's family affairs.

After returning to his room, Luo Yu only rested for one night, and the next day he followed the old lady Xiao to the mountain col early in the morning.

This time, since the shop owner came in person, the purple-clothed guards seemed less indifferent, and let them go directly after saying hello.

In the next few days, everything seemed to be calm, and the old lady Xiao did not leave, and began to teach Luo Yu and Ling'er the method of refining animal medicine and grass in the medicine garden, and saw that both of them were extremely talented. After mastering the essentials, he also imparted another unique skill, "Spiritual Beast Bag Weaving".

The old lady Xiao has been trading spirit beasts for a lifetime, so it is not surprising that she knows some strange techniques related to spirit beasts.
