Urban Witcher

Xiao Jiu stretched out her jade-like fingers and beckoned at him, "Come up!"

"This..." Ye Shaoyang suddenly didn't dare.

Xiao Jiu leaned over and grabbed him, and pulled him to the phoenix chariot. There was a layer of soft cushions on the seat, and Xiao Jiu pulled him to sit down together.

Ye Shaoyang was stiff all over, feeling very uncomfortable.

Xiao Jiu was next to him, exuding a faint fragrance, which was much weaker than that of the fox girl before, but more intoxicating.

Seeing Ye Shaoyang's dumbfounded look, Xiao Jiu wanted to laugh, but this occasion was really inappropriate, so she stretched her finger forward and said softly, "Look, Shaoyang!"

Ye Shaoyang's attention was completely attracted by Xiao Jiu. After she reminded him, he noticed that the people standing opposite were a bit condescending because he was at the foot of the mountain.

Ye Shaoyang glanced at it, and there were about four camps. There were only a few people in the small group, and dozens of people in the large group. There were men, women and children. There is an uneasy feeling.

"Over there, they are disciples of the Zhongge Sect, and they are also one of the 'Four Mountains and Twelve Gates'. This time they are the ones who are in trouble."

Following Xiao Jiu's gaze, Ye Shaoyang looked towards the group with the least number of people among the four camps. They were all Taoist priests, young and old, staring at them covetously.

Ye Shaoyang noticed that the styles of Taoist robes on them were not the same as the modern ones. They kept the ancient style. It was an old Taoist priest wearing a water suit and a magic crown, with a gray beard and a solemn face. old look.

Ye Shaoyang carefully looked at his clothes, and was suddenly secretly surprised: the water jacket on this old Taoist priest was printed with green, yellow and red three-color flowing waves from top to bottom, and it was embellished with a large piece of auspicious cloud pattern.

This kind of water jacket has not been worn by modern Taoist priests for a long time. Regardless of whether it is a Taoist robe or a monk's robe, the costumes worn by different status are different. Like the sweater worn by the old Taoist priest in front of me, Ye Shaoyang has only seen it in ancient books. It is a kind of Taoist clothing before the Tang Dynasty. The three colors of blue, yellow and red represent the redness of the blue sky and loess. Anyone who is qualified to wear this kind of water jacket, even if He is not the head of one sect, but also the abbot and elder of the sect.

This old Taoist priest was wearing a three-color flowing water jacket, a purple chiseled gold crown on his head, and Lingfeng boots on his feet, with his hands folded in front of him, holding a whisk.

"The one at the front is Huang Jianlong, the master of Mufeng Temple, one of the three pavilions. His mana is profound. I have been in the Qingming Realm for many years, and I don't have much contact with them. I don't know what kind of realm this person is."

"Sure enough, there are many sects..." Ye Shaoyang looked at the old master Huang Jianlong and sighed.

"The camp on the side is Lishan, Taiyishan, Xingxiuhai..."

Lishan! Ye Shaoyang suddenly thought of something, turned his head to look, and saw a familiar face: a man standing in the front was also watching him. smile.

Ye Shaoyang met him once, and this guy is Shi Niang's senior brother! When he entered the Dao of Reincarnation, he went to help out with a junior sister and fought with him. At that time, this guy looked down on the Taoist sect in the world, and Ye Shaoyang didn't have a good impression of him.

I didn't expect to see it in the Qingming Realm today.

"You don't need to worry about other forces. Unless you take the initiative, they won't do anything. Only the cabinet factions are here to find trouble."

Ye Shaoyang still wanted to ask again, but Xiao Jiu said to the distance: "Guanzhu Huang, this is the Celestial Master Ye Shaoyang of Xuanqing Mountain. What I told you before, as a person who experienced it, he knows more details than I do. If you If you don’t believe me, just ask him.”

Huang Guanzhu walked slowly.

Holding Ye Shaoyang's hand, Xiao Jiu jumped off the phoenix chariot and landed on the open space between the two sides.

Huang Guanzhu looked Ye Shaoyang up and down, "From Xuanqing Mountain?"

Ye Shaoyang originally thought that he was an old senior and wanted to salute, but the other party was so rude, so he didn't bother to salute, and pretended he didn't hear.

"Human disciples, it has been a long time since no one has come to the Qingming Realm, and the poor don't know what the world is like. You are a disciple of Xuanqing Mountain for many generations."

"The thirty-ninth generation... the head teacher." Ye Shaoyang wanted to say "inheritors" two people, but suddenly thought that he was the head teacher now, so he simply pretended to be a coward.

Huang Guanzhu frowned, and said: "You are so young, you are the head teacher of Xuanqing Mountain? Since the opening of Tongming sect, Xuanqing Mountain is really not as good as one generation after another?"

"Tongming" is the name of Tao Hongjing, the sage of Xuanqing Mountain. When Ye Shaoyang heard this, he not only belittled himself, but also belittled his master and ancestors, and immediately got a little angry. Before he could do anything, Guanzhu Huang said again: "You say you are the head teacher of Xuanqing Mountain, what is it to believe?"

Ye Shaoyang rolled his eyes, "Believe it or not, who are you, why should I prove it to you?"

A slightly younger Taoist priest behind Huang Guanzhu said coldly: "Presumptuous, I am waiting for everyone, who is not your ancestor, let alone Lord Guanzhu, why is he so disrespectful!"

What he said is not wrong. Ye Shaoyang naturally knows a lot about the history of Taoism: Before the Yuan Dynasty, Taoism was roughly divided into five major religions: Mayi, Sushi, Zhongge, Xuanqingshan, and Quanzhen according to the emphasis of cultivation.

Mai majors in divination and fortune-telling, which is also known as "Ma Yi's divine fortune-telling", Quan Zhen majors in physical skills, Sushi is an ancient alchemist who majors in Feng Shui, and Zhongge mainly cultivates immortals. As for Xuanqing Mountain, it is a great unity, good at all aspects, but best at catching ghosts and subduing demons.

After the Song Dynasty, because the Mongols entered the customs, Taoism was also greatly impacted. Sutu, Maiyi, and Zhongge lost their incense. Although Taoism was inherited by others, they lost the official inheritance after all, leaving only Xuanqing Mountain and Quanzhen.

However, Ye Shaoyang remembered that Master said that apart from cultivating immortals, the disciples of the Zhongge Sect were also very good at witchcraft, especially the head drop technique. Among the Nanyang and Miaojiang sorcery of the Zhongge Sect, one branch was the inheritance of the Zhongge Sect. It is said that in ancient times, all sects of Taoist priests gathered together to discuss things, and every time it was the sect of the cabinet that won.

The Xuanqing Mountain technique for killing demons and demons, all spells are used to deal with evil things, and to deal with people can only rely on physical skills, while the witchcraft of the Zhongge School should be applied to people. Fighting Xuanqing Mountain disciples is naturally not an opponent, the rest Not to mention factions. Moreover, those who practice witchcraft for a long time will have evil spirits in their bodies to some extent, and their personalities will be more sinister and ruthless, so the monks of the Zhongge sect were once regarded as a tyrant in the Taoist sect.

Ye Shaoyang originally expressed doubts about the master's argument, but seeing the demeanor of the two monks in front of him, he finally believed it.

Ye Shaoyang smiled and said: "This is about how many Taoist priests have been from ancient times to the present. Could it be that every one of them is my ancestor? The hell is all my relatives. Besides, if you want me to respect you, you have to show the respect that your predecessors should have. look like?"
