Hell Emperor

Chapter 33 Nan Linghe-Teaching

Beside the bone burial beach, Nan Linghe held a branch in his hand and paddled back and forth on the sand. Xia Wei and Lu Xi sat aside, peeping their heads and recording the changes in the sand in their eyes.

"Let's start with the simplest numbers first. Come and read with me, one, two, three... one, ten, one hundred..."

After drawing out a large row of characters, Nan Linghe lifted the branch in his hand, pointed at the characters on the sand, and patiently explained to Xia Wei and Lu Qian.

"One, two, three...one, ten, a hundred..."

Xia Wei sat obediently, and under Nan Linghe's guidance, tried hard to carve the words into the deepest part of her mind. After a while, she felt dizzy, her eyelids were heavy, and she was about to fall asleep.

The impressive talent of the immortal reincarnation seemed to have lost its effect at this moment. Xia Wei's little head moved up and down like a buoy rising and falling on the river. Her eyelids were fighting. Suddenly she opened her eyes with a jolt. After sitting up straight, she couldn't help but He looked at Ye Jie and complained: "Master, why is it so difficult to read?"

Ye Jie was at the side, flipping through the classics of Bai Lian Shen, and expressed his helplessness to her: "Don't look at me, as a reincarnation of an immortal, if you can't even read, then you can't make sense, right? Let your Senior Sister He, I’ll help you get enlightened.”

Xia Wei had no choice but to grimace and continue studying.

Beside, Lucy was opening her eyes in confusion, completely unaware of Nan Linghe's intentions. Nan Linghe asked Xia Wei to remember by herself, then came to Lu Qian's side, raised a finger, and poked the words on the beach with a branch: "One."

Lucy seemed to understand what she meant, and followed her example and said: "Xi..."

"One." Nan Linghe shook his head and corrected himself.

"Seven..." Lucy said.

"One!" Nan Linghe emphasized his tone.

"meaning…"

Under Nan Linghe's repeated corrections, Lucy finally pronounced similar syllables. Nan Linghe nodded with satisfaction, raised two fingers, and poked the word next to "one": "two."

After some memorization, Xia Wei also picked up a branch and silently wrote the words she had just memorized on the beach. The effect was very remarkable. With her hard memory, she quickly mastered the words about numbers.

Nan Linghe looked surprised. He found a branch for Lu Qian and asked her to copy words on the beach, and then went to teach Xia Wei new words.

"Next, I want to teach you the words about animals." Nan Linghe picked up the branch and wrote the corresponding words on the beach every time he read a word, "Human, monster, crane, fish, fairy, shrimp, Tiger, pig, dog, dragon, crab..."

Now even Ye Jie couldn't listen anymore and asked the confused Nan Linghe to teach Xia Wei. He might know what trouble would happen, so he put away the classics and walked over:

"Isn't this adding to the memory burden on Xia Wei? How can she remember a lot of words with different meanings piled in front of her eyes? Forget it, let me do it."

Ye Jie took the branch from Nan Linghe, smoothed the words on the sand, drew two horizontal lines on the ground, and said:

"Animals are divided into three categories, those that fly in the sky, those that run on the ground, and those that swim in the water. The first row is those that fly in the sky, dragons, cranes, and birds... The second row are those that run on the ground, humans, tigers, pigs, and dogs... The third row is for things swimming in the water, fish, shrimps, crabs..."

Seeing Ye Jie coming to her side, Xia Wei's very relaxed stance disappeared immediately. She straightened her back, pursed her lips slightly, and looked at Ye Jie unblinkingly with her picturesque eyes.

"What are you looking at me for? Look at my writing!" Seeing that Xia Wei was distracted again, Ye Jie was so angry that he reached out and knocked her on the head.

Xia Wei covered her head with an ouch and puffed out her mouth in a coquettish manner, and then she concentrated on copying the words on the beach.

On the side, Nan Linghe was also patiently guiding Lu Qian. Xia Wei could not read at most, but Lu Qian could not even speak. What Lu Qian needed to learn was not only literacy, but also pronunciation. the entire writing system within.

Nan Linghe spread his left palm, raised two fingers of his right hand, and pointed at the seven on the ground: "Seven."

Lucy imitated her and said: "It means..."

"It's not one, it's seven." Nan Linghe said with a bitter face.

"Xi..." Lucy seemed to understand what she meant, but she didn't seem to.

Finally, Nan Linghe ran to Ye Jie helplessly: "Brother Jie, what should we do now? How long will it take to teach Lucy?"

Ye Jie smiled: "It's still early. It's too early to give up now. Do you want to lose to Xie Xinyu who provoked you in the competition? There is no difference. As long as you have time and be patient, you can complete it. This is a Class A mission.”

Hearing Ye Jie mention Xie Xinyu's name, Nan Linghe had no choice but to put away her complaints. She didn't want Brother Jie to be embarrassed in front of that ghost officer, but she still felt a little embarrassed about how to teach Lucy. She pursed her lips and said:

"Now that I'm teaching numbers up to ten, I can still use my fingers to indicate to Lucy. What if I teach numbers up to one hundred, one thousand? Where can I find so many fingers?"

Ye Jie patted her head: "According to what you said, I will teach her the names of animals later, teach her the names of animals such as the crane in the fairy mountain, the green cow in the pastoral cloud, the giant dragon in the deep pool, the dragon in the sky, the golden-winged roc, and the six-eared macaque. , are we really going to capture those immortal beasts?”

Nan Linghe sighed, as if he was worried about this matter.

"Wait a minute, you don't really think so..." Ye Jie twitched the corner of his mouth. Judging from Nan Linghe's reaction, he seemed to have really hit the mark.

Ye Jie shook his head helplessly: "Anyway, you should try to communicate with her more. Maybe Lucy will understand just by listening to us... What is she doing?"

The two of them turned around and saw that Lucy had squatted down at some point. Instead of copying words like Xia Wei, she was drawing randomly on the ground with a branch.

Lucy drew a circle on the beach below her with herself as the center. The circle surrounded her whole body, and then she drew a small circle with a slightly smaller radius inside the circle.

"Is that a magic circle?"

Ye Jie came to her side and saw that the circle drawn by Lucy on the beach was flawless, with smooth lines and no flaws. It was obviously the starting point for arranging the magic circle, but at the moment when the small circles were connected, Lucy's eyes showed a bit of confusion.

With white hair and red eyes, she looked at Yuan below with confused eyes. She didn't make any next move for a long time. She tried hard to remember, but her excessive thinking stimulated her mind, causing her to tremble and bend down, with trembling pain coming out of her mouth. growled.

Seeing this, Nan Linghe ran over with concern, helped Lucy sit down, took out a packet of medicinal powder from his arms, and carefully fed her to drink. Lucy's expression slowly improved, and her face gradually became calmer.

"What is that?" Ye Jie was stunned when he saw that Nan Linghe actually took out this kind of medicinal powder, and then asked.

"This is the medicinal powder Sister Bai Luo gave me, saying it can relieve Lucy's pain..." Nan Linghe said without thinking, but Ye Jie was even more confused.

"Bai Luo? Are you talking about Bai Luo, one of the chief maids in the wine country?"

In Ye Jie's mind, the head maid who was sitting on a wooden chair and looking sickly appeared.

Nan Linghe nodded: "Bai Luo came to look for you at home not long ago, but Brother Jie was not there. She also met Lucy. After hearing about my mission, she even checked on Lucy. She told me , Lucy's mind was severely traumatized, and she even lost a large part of her memory. She also gave me some medicinal powder, saying it could relieve Lucy's headache. "

"Why did Bai Luo come to me?" Ye Jie was puzzled.

"She said Mint asked her to come. She also said Mint reminded you to put away her mushrooms and not to eat them secretly." Nan Linghe replied.

"Mushrooms..." The corner of Ye Jie's mouth twitched. Because Mint left in a hurry, many of the mushrooms she brought were left in Xia Wei's hands, including three red body-burning mushrooms and more than a dozen There are different types of mushrooms with strange appearances. "Who would eat those highly poisonous Hades mushrooms?"

Among them, Ye Jie asked Xia Wei to carry the three Burning Body Mushrooms with him as a killing move when encountering danger. As long as they are eaten, they can explode with a full blow equivalent to the early stage of the third level, which is enough to catch the enemy off guard. The burning state brought about by the flames is enough to make even tough enemies drink a pot.

Ye Jie touched his chin. If it weren't for the Burning Body Mushroom growing under the Soul-Eating Abyss, he would have wanted to pick some himself and use it as Xia Wei's self-defense trump card. I don’t know where the mint came from. I’ll ask her again next time we meet.

Shaking his head, Ye Jie looked at the exhausted Lucy, and then at Xia Wei, who was copying text on the beach until her eyes were dizzy, and couldn't help coughing:

"Okay, let's move on to the next exercise. The next exercise is the use of the technique."

Saying that, Ye Jie also glanced at Nan Linghe and saw that she was in a daze, so he pushed her over: "Okay, now it's your turn."

"Me?" Nan Linghe pointed at himself, eyes wide open, as if he didn't understand what Ye Jie meant.

"Although you have obtained the first-level peak cultivation level under the baptism of first-class spiritual power when tearing up the book, Xia Wei with the same cultivation level is enough to beat a hundred of you. This is the strength gap caused by the skills. "

Ye Jie shook his head helplessly: "As an official ghost agent, you don't know any Kung Fu. Isn't that too unreasonable? I used to know two Kung Fu techniques, but now it's your turn to learn from Xia Wei."

Ye Jie added: "Your current goal is to get started with the practice of Soul-Breaking Arrow. My understanding of Soul-Breaking Arrow is very limited. It took me ten years to get started. I'm afraid I can't teach you any training experience, but Xia Wei is different, she is a peerless genius who can master Soul-Breaking Arrow in an hour. With her guidance, I believe you can learn this skill soon."

Nan Linghe shrank his shoulders, his eyes full of unconfidence: "Even Brother Jie needs ten years to learn the soul-breaking arrow. I'm afraid it will take longer..."

Xia Wei came over with a smile on her face: "Senior Sister He gave me such a precious sachet and taught me how to read. Now is the time for me to repay Senior Sister He. Don't worry, Xiao Wei will definitely teach you. !”

Ye Jie also comforted her and said: "Don't worry, the Soul-Breaking Arrow is only a low-level human-level skill, and it won't be any more difficult. With Xia Wei's help, I learned the high-level human-level Yun Zhemu in one night. You will definitely succeed."

Ye Jie took out the book on Soul-Breaking Arrow and recited its contents, while Xia Wei came to Nan Linghe and carefully explained to her the difficulties in the casting process.

"When performing the exercises, you need to keep a calm mind and not have any distracting thoughts. Feel the flow of spiritual power in the soul, gather your consciousness at the forefront of the flow of spiritual power, imagine that you have also turned into spiritual power, and interact with the endless spiritual power. Flow together... When the soul-breaking arrow is condensed, pour all your own will and consciousness into it. Don't use it as a weapon to kill the enemy, use it as an extension of the path of practice under your feet..."

Xia Wei's explanation was meticulous and fascinating. She took the trouble to explain every difficulty in the casting process and the secret of every spiritual power operation.

Nan Linghe opened his bright eyes and listened to the mystery of the exercises. Even Ye Jie felt enlightened when he heard Xia Wei's sermon. The problems in the exercises that had troubled him for decades were finally solved. At this moment, he put it behind him, and many problems were solved. Suddenly, he felt like he was enlightened.

An hour passed, Ye Jie's eyes were tightly closed, his arms were shaking slightly, and all the spiritual energy in his body was mobilized with his movement. He raised his hand, and a solid black arrow was condensed in his palm.

"It's done! This is the soul-breaking arrow of the Dacheng stage!"

Feeling the absolute power contained in the big black arrow, Ye Jie looked happy. Unexpectedly, it was him who gained the most from Xia Wei's preaching. Combined with his sixty years of experience in practicing soul-breaking arrows, he defeated it in one fell swoop. The breakthrough has reached the Dacheng stage.

Ye Jie took out the broken page and saw that [Soul-Breaking Arrow (Xiao Cheng)] in the skill column blurred for a while, and then turned into [Soul-Breaking Arrow (Dacheng)].

Seeing this, Xia Wei also showed a happy expression, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and she gently applauded Ye Jie.

On the side, after listening to Xia Wei's careful explanation, Nan Linghe slowly raised her hand, and a thin but unbreakable dark arrow also condensed and formed in her palm.

"Very good, you have also mastered the Soul-Breaking Arrow!"

Ye Jie laughed loudly. He didn't expect that just one day of practice would lead to such rapid progress. Both Xia Wei and Nan Linghe made huge gains, and even Ye Jie himself did the same. .

Several people looked at each other and smiled. The learning from each other's strengths and weaknesses in practice also gave everyone an inseparable tacit understanding. Even without words, they could understand each other's thoughts with just one look. When they were together, they felt like a family. The warmth.

Suddenly, a gurgling sound came from Xia Wei's belly. She scratched her head in embarrassment. After a day of practice, her belly was empty.

Ye Jie smiled: "Xiaowei, you should be hungry already. Let's go and try the power of the soul-breaking arrow."

Under the leadership of Ye Jie, the few people who had restrained their auras quickly approached the area where the monsters were active, and also saw a few lone crayfish.

Seeing this, Ye Jie reminded: "Ghosts cannot kill at will, even monsters, unless they are actively attacked by others. Those crayfish can't see us at all, so how can they actively attack? Because of this, ending the monsters The last blow of life needs to be completed by Xia Wei. "

Nan Linghe nodded, she raised her fair and weak right hand, and small black arrows condensed in her palm.

Ye Jie took a step forward and stood side by side with Nan Linghe. He raised his withered and slender right arm, and the big black arrow was ready to go.

Xia Wei followed up and stood side by side with Ye Jie. She raised her slender and agile right hand, and a larger black arrow locked the target in front of her.

Another slender and elegant right arm was raised, and a bright light, like a pure white arrow surrounded by flowing light, was also condensed in the palm.

"Huh? What's going on?"

Realizing that there was one more raised arm, three people raised four arms, Ye Jie frowned and realized that the matter was not simple. Taking a closer look, the person standing next to Xia Wei was Lu Qian.

Seeing that several people were maintaining uniform postures, Lucy seemed to have discovered something interesting and wanted to join in. The moment she raised her hand, a pure white arrow that was completely different from everyone else also condensed in her palm.
