Nine idlers

Chapter 19 White-headed Crow (This chapter is free)

"It's time for everyone to go on the road. When the heart lamp is on, the wandering soul will return to its place, and hurry like a law!" Xu Changqing's expression was indifferent, and he pointed his sword at the void, and more than 2000 wandering souls all rushed into the lantern. The flames inside the lantern also seemed to be much brighter.Then he grabbed the braids from behind and shook the golden bells on the braids vigorously. As the crisp sound of the bells spread, the light attached to the boys, girls, cranes and bamboo stands changed as if they had been ignited. It was so strong that it could be seen even with the naked eye, and he recited the mantra again, saying: "The fairy boy leads the way, the crane protects the spirit, and the magic soldiers are as urgent as a law, rise up!"

Driven by Xu Changqing's Taoism, the nine pairs of boys and girls pulled out a rope made of golden light from the bamboo frame, pulled the whole lantern frame and flew towards the light of reincarnation, and the cranes became even bigger, Flying around the shelf, fend off all the hungry ghosts who try to approach.

"Look, what's that?" It's hard not to attract people's attention to such an eye-catching scene. When the lantern frame flew high into the sky, the people who gathered at the Water and Land Ceremony to set off lanterns to save the dead all looked up at the same time. .Many believers of the Immortal Buddha thought that this was the descending of immortals, and they all knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and muttered words.Some eminent monks who chanted sutras and practiced dharma at the Water and Land Ceremony felt that the lantern frame exuded a very pure aura of heaven and earth, and many people knew that it must be a certain master casting spells to send resentful souls on the road.

In the inner courtyard of Wanhua Building, while enjoying the meticulous service of the male disciples under her door, Hu Yueniang was running the Dzogchen Heart Sutra of Tantric Buddhism, bit by bit drawing out a part of the true power of Buddhism and Daoism from the sky above the Water and Land Dharma Assembly to restore the body that was beaten by Xu Changqing ten years ago. Cracks in the Buddhist and Taoist consciousness that appeared after the injury.When the lantern frame appeared high in the sky, she was immediately awakened by the pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth emanating from it, and she got out of the Dzogchen Heart Sutra, and kicked away the dog-like disciples, wrapped in a layer of light veil , walked to the window and looked at the lantern shelf in the air, a rare look of sadness appeared in his eyes.

"I didn't expect that in only ten years, you have reached the level of borrowing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth like your master," Hu Yueniang said to herself with a slightly sad expression, "If you have the same line of idlers as you can The borrowed spiritual energy of heaven and earth is used for oneself, so why worry about the failure of the golden elixir? That dead ghost will no longer be in danger?" As he spoke, his face suddenly changed, and he smiled coldly, saying: "God is also fair, Let you all be endowed with unique advantages, born with Dao bones, and you can become a master of Taoism in just ten years of cultivation, but it means that you will not be allowed to achieve the golden core orthodoxy, and you will always be stuck in the sideways. Always be a low class person."

"Master, is it uncomfortable for you to be served by my disciple?" He obviously looked tall and big, but he just wagged his tail like a dog and begged for mercy. Hu Yueniang's disciple carefully 'licked' Hu Yueniang's leg, and climbed up to her little by little. body, his thick hands pinched the pair of round jade rabbits in front from behind, and put his mouth close to her ear and said pitifully.

Hu Yueniang groaned full of obsequiousness, closed her eyes and enjoyed her disciple's "kneading" on her chest, and said quietly: "Second brother, how many senior brothers do you have in Wanhualou?"

"The boss, the third child, and the seventh child were all sent by the master to fetch things, and the tenth child followed. Now only me, the fifth child, and the sixth child stay here to serve the master." Hu Yueniang's second disciple replied honestly. .

Hu Yueniang thought for a while and said: "Go and call them all, and ask the boss of Wanhualou to pick some strong men with strong yang, and I will borrow the Yuan Yin you stole and the Yuan Yang of those strong men for the teacher. , Heal wounds through the true power of Buddhism and Taoism."

The second disciple of the prostitute Yangtang quickly responded: "I will call them now."

When the second disciple was about to leave, Hu Yueniang suddenly stopped him again, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Forget about those strong men. Since Xu Changqing has already issued a warning, he is not just joking. He will fight again for the sake of a few men." If he falls out, it won't pay off, let you brothers serve as teachers!"

"Yes!" A trace of jealousy flashed in the eyes of the second disciple, and he bowed and retreated downstairs.

At this moment, on the viewing platform of the Chen family's house, Chen Deshang stood on the edge of the platform with his hands behind his back, looking at the strange scene in the sky, wondering what he was thinking in his mind, while the Chen family's nephews and nephews were sitting scatteredly on the platform, surrounded by Chen He was guarded by the masters trained by his family over the years, and Jin Yunpeng, who was a guest, stood beside him respectfully.Although Jin Yunpeng is a Beiyang general, but when it comes to seniority, seniority, and strength in his hands, he is not so far behind Chen Deshang.He was flattered that Chen Deshang let him watch the stars side by side with him, even though he was extremely surprised by the vision in the sky, but before Chen Deshang opened his mouth, he always stood there respectfully, not daring to speak.

"Yi Qing! You can't see a scene like today's in Beiping. There are too many dragons and snakes there. You have to think twice before doing anything. On the contrary, there are no people here who can let go. You come in time. If you come early If it comes in a few days, you might not stand here and pay me for watching the stars!" Chen Deshang said suddenly, there was something in his words, and he said with meaning.

"It's Chen Weng's love that gave Yi Qing the opportunity to stand with someone like Chen Weng. Yi Qing is really lucky." Although Jin Yunpeng didn't understand the meaning of Chen Deshang's words, he was still confused He said some compliments, and said: "What I saw today has really taught Yi Qing a lot, not to mention the Mr. Xu who can pinch and count by Chen Weng's side, even if this spellcaster can do such a thing now." I have never seen an expert with a vision of heaven and earth before in the capital, Yi Qing now understands that there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky! Only people like Chen Weng are worthy of using these experts."

Chen Deshang did not intend to expose all of Xu Changqing's abilities to outsiders, just as everyone who is close to or hostile to Chen Deshang knows, Xu Changqing's ability is just a very ordinary fortune teller , As for Xu Changqing's profound Taoism, it is Chen Deshang's hidden trump card.The Patriarchs of the Chen family and the owners of Yizhuang in the past dynasties like to plot people behind their backs. Even if they are powerful, they will not confront the enemy head-on. He Cixi used this method.

Seeing the lantern frame in the sky disappearing into the clouds little by little, Chen Deshang looked away, looked at Jin Yunpeng beside him, and said: "Tomorrow, a group of high-ranking monks from the north will leave, and you should go with them too. I will let people closely protect your safety along the way. Although there are many revolutionaries who want the lives of you Beiyang generals, under my protection, they will never hurt you at all. 'hair'."

"Yi Qing, thank Chen Weng here first!" Jin Yunpeng thanked again and again, and then said: "As for the things that Chen Weng left behind in Wuhan..."

Chen Deshang interrupted him, and said: "Give that worthless gadget to your Duan Tongzhi! There is no need to bring it back."

Jin Yunpeng couldn't help being astounded by Chen Deshang's arrogance. The batch of firearms that needed to be used by the Beiyang New Army was definitely not a small amount. No matter how it was calculated, it was a huge amount of wealth that ordinary people could hardly imagine.He swallowed dryly, took a few deep breaths, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said: "Yi Qing is here to thank Chen Weng in place of Master Zhi, and when Chen Weng arrives in Tianjin or Shanghai that day, Master Zhi will definitely I will personally go to Chen Weng's residence and thank Chen Weng face to face."

"There's no need to be so polite, it's nothing?" Chen Deshang said indifferently: "Speaking of which, I also contributed a lot when your Beiyang New Army was founded, but it's a pity that because of various grievances and grievances, it's not possible to get along with me." Your Beiyang family runs in opposite directions, and now we have to cooperate again, which is considered a blessing." He took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Jin Yunpeng, saying: "When you go back, give the letter to Jin Yunpeng. Your family is in charge, ask him to hand it over to Big Head Yuan, as long as he agrees to the things mentioned in my letter, I, Chen Deshang, can use the financial resources, manpower and connections of the Chen family to help him achieve his success, and I will never break my promise."

Jin Yunpeng took the letter carefully, kept it close to him, and said respectfully: "Yi Qing will definitely hand over the letter to Master Zhi."

"That's the best!" Chen Deshang nodded, turned his head and told the servants in the mansion: "Chen San takes Mr. Jin down to rest."

"Yi Qing resigns!" After Jin Yunpeng saluted, he walked down the observatory with the servants of the Chen family, his footsteps were extremely relaxed, and he involuntarily 'touched' the letter on his chest, thinking that after this letter was handed over to Duan Qirui , the rewards he got and his future career, his body couldn't help shaking with excitement.

After watching Jin Yunpeng go down, Chen Deshang stood for a while, and said to the butler beside him: "Prepare the sedan chair, I'm going to Taohuashan Yizhuang."

In Yizhuang, Xu Changqing felt that his Dao Xin state had improved again after the fairy boy and crane transformed from the aura of heaven and earth sent the more than 2000 resentful souls into the light of reincarnation.In particular, the universe in the sleeves also improved at this moment. The formation printed into the true spirit began to transform into two formations of yin and yang, and the inner celestial cycle appeared, which echoed the outer celestial cycle of the long jacket outside the body, thus making the support The real energy needed for a world in the sleeves has also become much less.As long as a period of time passes, after the Great Formation of the Universe in the Sleeve in the True Spirit of the Nation is transformed into the Four Elephant Spirit Suppressing Formation, then the Universe in the Sleeve can break away from the outer cycle of the long-gown spirit treasure on his body, and be in harmony with the cultivation of the original life. In order to be connected together, as long as the natal cultivation base is higher, the desire for the universe in the sleeve will be stronger.

In addition, his golden body of merit seems to have completed the outermost stage of training skin and melting flesh. After that, as long as he completes the stage of forging bones and removing karma, he can become a golden body of merit. At that time, he will not be involved in karma, and there will be no disasters and disasters. The world will win.He will not be afraid of being involved in the disaster of heaven and earth like now, and hide in Chen Jiachong, calculating the direction of his luck, fearing the head and the tail.

After Xu Changqing adjusted his breath for a while and recovered part of his golden core essence, he opened his eyes and saw those white-headed and black-horned crows standing around the cracked peach, looking at him with pairs of red eyes, as if Only after he agreed, did he dare to make Douxi happy.

Xu Changqing smiled, took out a copper bowl from the room, put it on the table, and said, "Eat it! Remember to spit it out after eating."

After finishing speaking, he sat cross-legged on the cushion of the incense altar, and operated the golden elixir to recover the lost true energy.After obtaining Xu Changqing's consent, those white-headed and black-horned crows quickly pounced on the peaches on the human face, quickly pecking at the peach flesh, and as the peaches they ate increased, a layer of green energy shrouded their bodies, and When the green energy is strong enough to a certain level, the crow will stop eating the peaches, walk aside and put its head under the wings without moving.After a while, the green energy on it will gradually fade away, and it will fly to the incense altar and spit out a little amber liquid into the bowl that Xu Changqing took out.

As the peaches of human face fell into the bellies of these white-headed and black-horned crows, the copper bowl in front of Xu Changqing also slowly filled a bowl of amber liquid.The biggest one among the group of white-headed and black-horned crows flew in front of Xu Changqing, lowered its head and put its black horns on the ground, and bent it hard, breaking the black horns on its head. Looking at the broken horn on the head, a new horn soon grew out of the broken horn, but it was much smaller.The tired-looking crow flew to the top of the incense altar with the broken horn in its mouth, dropped the horn into the amber liquid, and then yelled, causing all the white-headed crows to fly away Get up, and fly to the southwest like a dark cloud.

Not long after the crow flew away, the amber liquid in the copper bowl was gradually absorbed by the broken horn, and the broken horn seemed to melt in the amber liquid A droplet-shaped object was formed.As the 'liquid' gradually decreased, the object formed by the broken horn became larger and larger, and finally turned into a sticky black substance, lying quietly in the copper bowl.

At this time, Xu Changqing woke up from the samadhi, and the body's golden elixir essence recovered about [-]%, and the luck method of refining and transforming qi in the golden elixir in his body became much smoother.Many unused occluded Qi meridians and acupoints became active, and they joined the ranks of circulating true essence, which accelerated the condensation of golden liquid true essence a lot, and it was possible to use the unbroken golden core. Famen's posture.

When Xu Changqing stood up and saw the unknown mass of substance in the copper bowl of the incense altar, a rare smile appeared on his face, and he said to himself: "You spirit birds are quite clever, I didn't raise you for nothing." one game."

Xu Changqing stretched out his hand to 'touch' the inexplicable substance in the bowl, felt the biting chill coming from the substance, smiled with satisfaction, turned around and took out all the gourds with corpse aura and those ancient meanings from the main room. The owner of the village collected the gourd of grievances, and then took out the two pairs of Sanyin thorns and the two life soul beads from his waist pocket, and put them together with the red dust rope with silver nails taken out of his sleeve.

Just when Xu Changqing was about to forge a powerful spiritual treasure while the iron was hot, Chen Deshang's call to the door was suddenly heard outside the gate of Yizhuang, and he said, "I begged to see Mr. Xu rashly, please don't blame me."
