Yin and Yang Taoist Code

Coming out of the illusion array, Li Chuyi saw the neatly arranged bookshelves on both sides. There were many books and volumes scattered on the bookshelves, which were the many secrets and techniques that the old monster Wuyang had collected during his lifetime. Judging from the information from the Sky Eye, although the books on these bookshelves are not as numerous as those on the first floor, the light they emit is several times stronger than the dots of fireflies on the first floor. The collection on the second floor is definitely much more precious than the collection on the first floor.

The Taoist priest on the side walked straight to the stairs at the end of the bookshelf without looking at it. Li Chuyi reluctantly glanced at the surrounding bookshelves and followed the Taoist priest up the stairs, making up his mind to pick up a few more books when he left. .

Going up the stairs, Li Chuyi followed the Taoist priest to the third floor.

Li Chuyi was on guard all the way, for fear of being careless and capsizing again. Especially looking at the empty third floor hall, which was decorated like a large study room, Li Chuyi felt even more uneasy.

Just now, the grassland on the second floor is almost real. The third floor is so weird. Not to mention that there is no flaw in the study, the size and layout are also so natural. There is nothing unreasonable. It is really amazing.

Li Chuyi's face was full of solemnity and vigilance, and he kept looking around with his slightly glowing eyes. The Taoist priest rolled his eyes and couldn't help but said: "Okay, don't look around with your eyes shining brightly. This There are no mechanisms on the third floor. This attic is used by the old monster Wuyang to store books. The mechanisms and restrictions set up are mainly for defense. If the people who come here can't even block the mechanisms and restrictions on the first two floors. If you don’t stop, you will have passed the test and you will be able to find an opportunity that matches your strength.”

After a pause, the Taoist priest said with a slight sigh: "Although this old five-yang monster has been famous throughout his life and has great cultivation, when he is about to die, he still has some thoughts of leaving something behind. He has cultivated like this. This huge tomb is not so much to hide one's belongings, but to leave some opportunities for future generations and to entrust some hopes that I have not been able to complete. You may lose your life if you are not careful, but as long as you have great strength or great luck and can survive the disaster, you will receive a piece of your own opportunity there, which may be a weapon, a magic weapon, a secret book of exercises, or even It may be some weird gadgets, but he won't leave empty-handed. From this point of view, this Wuyang old monster is also a free and easy person, not as stingy as those stingy old ghosts. I have to drag a lot of good things with me to accompany me.”

"Defense is the main thing? A test? Master, your disciple and I almost died on the second floor, so this still counts as defense first?" Li Chuyi couldn't help but curl his lips.

The Taoist priest glared at Li Chuyi and said coldly: "Aren't you dead? Besides, even if you are dead, it was because you were too greedy because of your lack of strength, which cost you your own life!"

Li Chuyi rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said to himself, "I also know that my strength is low. The problem is that I was dragged here by you without saying a word. If I were alone, I would not dare to come here even if I beat Li Chuyi to death." ah!

But he could only think about it in his mind. Li Chuyi was afraid that if he said it, he would get another slap on the head.

The Taoist priest glanced at Li Chuyi, who was silent on the side, and said: "Besides, it's not like you didn't gain anything on the second floor. Didn't the formation spirit give you four things as compensation for your shock?"

After hearing this, Li Chuyi rolled his eyes and almost lost his temper. The Taoist priest didn't say that he had forgotten that the formation spirit had indeed given him four things. The problem was that those things were magically disappeared by rolling up the sleeves of the Taoist robe. Apart from "inspecting the goods", he passed the test and was After the Taoist priest took it away, he never saw it at all.

The Taoist priest didn't know what Li Chuyi was thinking, so he continued to talk to himself: "This is called drinking and pecking. Could it be a predestined decision? If you weren't almost killed by that array spirit, how could that array spirit do this to you? If I hadn't been there all the time, how could you have controlled that spirit with your strength? If I wasn't your master and you weren't my disciple, how could I have helped an outsider? I'll wait until you're dead before I take action, are you right?" After saying that, the Taoist looked at Li Chuyi calmly.

Li Chuyi just wanted to say it was right, but then he thought about it and felt that something was wrong. After thinking about it for a long time, I suddenly figured it out. The Taoist priest said this implicitly. Why does it feel like he wants to take over everything and not give it to himself?

Li Chuyi glanced at the Taoist priest cautiously, lowered his eyes, and said respectfully: "Master said that the disciple has been taught. But the master is a compassionate person. Even if it was such a dangerous situation just now, it would be different if it were another person like the disciple. Ordinary young, ignorant, cute, sunny, and beloved children, Master, you will definitely come to the rescue. In the hearts of my disciples, you are the embodiment of justice and kindness in this dirty world, and you are worthy of being a Taoist in the world of mortals. You are the mortal immortal, you are the one who saves the mortal world!" After saying that, Li Chuyi stretched out his thumbs and practiced gestures thinking about the Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest smiled happily and nodded repeatedly, feeling quite relieved. Finally, after the little fat man finished speaking, the Taoist couldn't help but reach out and pinch the little fat man's chubby face, then stretched out his palm and said with a smile: "Bring it here!"

"What?" Li Chuyi had a look of dementia on his face.

"Bring the 20,000 taels of silver notes!" the Taoist priest continued with a smile.

"What's the 20,000 taels of silver note, I don't know?!" Li Chuyi continued to act stupid.

The Taoist priest didn't say anything, he just looked at him with a smile on his face, as if he was watching a monkey show.

When Li Chu saw this, he knew he couldn't hide. His expression changed, and he looked at the Taoist priest and said seriously and sincerely: "The bank note is not on me. I buried it in my luggage at the inn before I left!"

He glanced at the smiling Taoist priest and added: "I left it when you went to the brothel to 'transfer'. I was afraid it wouldn't be safe for you during this trip, so I hid it in my luggage!" After that, he nodded affirmatively.

The Taoist priest smiled brightly and said nothing. He just glanced at Li Chuyi's crotch, then looked at Li Chuyi, and his smile became even brighter.

Li Chu suddenly broke into a cold sweat and raised his voice and said, "Why don't you believe it? I really put it in my luggage at the inn. I'm not lying to you! After we go out, let's go to the inn and I'll get it for you! I'm your good boy Disciple, why don’t you believe me?” After saying this, he looked at the Taoist priest with an aggrieved look, as if he was deeply hurt by the Taoist priest’s distrust.

The Taoist priest laughed and waved his sleeves. A bunch of things in large and small bags fell down in front of Li Chu's eyes. Wasn't it their luggage? ! Before setting off, the Taoist priest actually went to the inn to check out the room, and even took out his luggage, which he hid somewhere on his body!

Li Chuyi looked at the Taoist priest for a long time and couldn't see where the Taoist priest could hide such a large amount of things. It must be that the Taoist priest never taught him his unique skills! This Taoist priest is so treacherous. He is so good at calculations. He must have calculated it before setting off so that he could take away the two thousand taels of silver notes!

The Taoist priest looked at Li Chuyi, whose expression kept changing, and smiled even more happily. Nodding at the pile of luggage, he said, "Look for it!"

Li Chuyi's face turned green and green. He didn't speak, and he didn't go to unpack his bags. He just stood there and stared at the Taoist priest.

Seeing this, the Taoist priest waved his robe sleeves gracefully, and the four things given by the formation spirit suddenly appeared in front of Li Chuyi, floating in the air.

The Taoist priest looked at Li Chuyi with a smile on his face, and his brows were filled with pride.

Li Chuyi was filled with grief and anger. He gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Old man, I paid for these things with my life. Although you are my master, wouldn't it be inappropriate not to leave them to me?"

"Without me, you would have died long ago, whether it was just now or thirteen years ago." The Taoist priest said calmly.

"Even so, you can't let me buy it with money! Besides, it's only 20,000 taels, what are you going to do? Can you spend all this money? Aren't you a fairy? Aren't you a heroic man? You're not Are you brave enough to help others?" The fat man had tears in his eyes.

The Taoist priest sighed and said melancholy: "I don't want to be a teacher! But drinking flower wine is very expensive! Not to mention 20,000 taels, even 200,000 taels is too little and not too much. As a teacher , it’s also very painful!”

Finally, he glanced at Li Chuyi strangely and said: "Besides, who told you that as a teacher, I am so heroic and willing to help others? As a teacher, I always act casually, except for the immortal Taoist bones, which is very correct. The other ones have nothing to do with being a master. They describe the elegant temperament of being a master, but they have nothing to do with our business."

Li Chuyi almost lost his temper. He looked at the Taoist priest fiercely, his eyes switching back and forth between the four things floating in the air and his own crotch. Suddenly he gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, roaring: "At worst, I don't want these things! If you want money, go drink flower wine, no way." !”

"The soul-nurturing beads are light purple in color and slightly bright. They are of the best quality and are rare treasures for monks. Holding them in hand during practice can calm the mind and drive away inner demons. . If the soul is damaged, it can also be used to speed up the repair of the soul. Especially for ghost cultivators, this soul-nourishing effect is extremely valuable, and can help strengthen the cohesion and warmth of their souls. My own soul. Although this one is only of the highest quality, it is still a rare treasure."

The Taoist priest ignored Li Chuyi and looked at four things, appreciating them in an indifferent tone.

"Although I don't know what the name of this sword is, just looking at the animal skin wrapped around the hilt and scabbard, you can tell that it is not a vulgar object. If I read it correctly, this animal skin should be the black one in Shiwandashan. It is made of the soft skin on the belly of the water crocodile, and the body of this sword is forged from hundreds of tempered cold iron, which is a hundred times stronger than ordinary fine steel."

The Taoist priest held the hilt of the sword and waved it casually twice. He raised his eyebrows and continued: "There is actually a trace of stardust iron in this sword. Stardust iron is an extremely rare thing. Just a trace can make it." Han Tie's spirituality has been improved by more than a hundred times, making it more tolerant and capable of carrying the power of true energy. It is a good sword!"

Leaving aside Li Chuyi, who had been dumbfounded for a long time, the Taoist priest added: "A trace of stardust iron is worth ten thousand gold!"

Gudu!

Li Chuyi swallowed. Oh my god, just a tiny bit is worth ten thousand gold! That’s one hundred thousand taels of snowflake silver! This is not counting the main material of cold iron, and it is also a hundred-refined cold iron. How much is this sword worth? Li Chuyi thought that maybe his toes would be enough to make it through.

Ignoring Li Chuyi, who was drooling at the side, the Taoist priest then looked at the jade talisman, played with it for a long time, and said: "Although I don't know what this jade talisman is, and I can't see any effect at all, but I got it It's gentle and can withstand my five powers without breaking, and it doesn't even react. It's definitely not an ordinary thing."

Next to him, Li Chuyi waited for a long time, but he didn't expect such a result. If it can withstand the Taoist priest's five successful powers without being destroyed, this jade talisman must not be a mortal thing. If it is not a mortal thing, then it must be valuable. Thinking of this, Li Chuyi's hopeful eyes fell on the last goose egg-sized "jellybean", not knowing what it was.

The Taoist priest did not disappoint Li Chuyi, and a faint voice came: "The most useful thing here is the last thing. This is a good thing, and it is rare to see it. For a monk at the level of a teacher, It may have no effect, but for monks with low skills, especially those who have just started, it is simply a holy product!" At this point, the Taoist priest stopped talking, just shaking his head and smiling, savoring the taste.

The Taoist priest talked for a long time, talking a lot of nonsense, but stopped talking when he got to the key point. Li Chu suddenly scratched his ears and cheeks, feeling itchy. It is a holy item for low-level monks. Doesn't this mean that this thing is obviously the most useful to him? But the Taoist stopped talking halfway through, and didn't say what it was or how to use it. Li Chuyi almost cried.

The monkey on the side was anxious for a long time, but finally couldn't hold it back, licked his face and asked: "Master, what is this thing? Can it be eaten? Can it be steamed or boiled?"

The Taoist glanced at Li Chuyi, curled his lips disdainfully, and said lightly: "This thing is called inner elixir. It is condensed from the huge demon power when the demon cultivator reaches a certain level. It is combined with the golden elixir of human monks and the ghost cultivator." Like the soul beads, they are the essence of one's own cultivation. The inner elixir can be used as medicine to make elixirs that increase one's own skill. It can not only increase one's own skill, save a lot of practice time, but also produce drug resistance in oneself. Afterwards, it is used as a rejuvenation pill to replenish one's own inner energy. This thing is very rare, because before the demon monks die, in order to prevent their inner pills from being taken away by the enemy, they will self-destruct the inner pills in front of them. It's so big, and it's even rarer to be left by a demon cultivator with a cultivation level of about four to five hundred years."

Li Chuyi was almost dumbfounded when he heard this, his little heart was beating like a thump. Mom, something that can increase your own power is so unbelievable! The Taoist priest said that this inner elixir must have been left by a great demon that lived for four to five hundred years at least. If he swallowed it, even if it could only have half of the effect, it would still be two hundred years of skill! I am only thirteen years old this year, but I already have more than two hundred years of skill. Then I am not a genius among geniuses, and I can fight whoever I want?

Thinking of this, Li Chu felt itchy and looked at the inner elixir floating in mid-air with a "hungry" look on his face, wanting to reach out and take it out and swallow it directly.

"If you miss, just swallow it." The Taoist priest's cold voice came.

Li Chu immediately poured a basin of cold water on it, and then he remembered that the Taoist priest had said that this stuff should be used as medicine. Looking at the Taoist priest with a flattering face, he opened his mouth to ask the Taoist priest if he knew how to make elixirs.

"I don't know how to make this kind of elixir." The Taoist priest knew what he wanted to ask and blocked it.

Li Chu's heart suddenly felt cold.

"But the friends I know do." The Taoist priest added.

Li Chuyi no longer knew what expression to use. For those who are overjoyed, it would be better to be as indifferent as a Taoist priest.

"Now, tell me your decision." Taoist Shi Shiran looked at Li Chuyi.

Li Chuyi was stunned and immediately realized what the Taoist priest was talking about. In fact, Li Chuyi is not really greedy for money, but he is afraid of poverty. Growing up, as long as he had some spare money, the Taoist priest would immediately use it to go shopping, which made Li Chuyi always on tenterhooks, fearing that he would not finish his meal. The Taoist priest did not starve Li Chuyi, but he often took him to wash dishes, chop firewood, and clean the stable. When he had no money, the Taoist priest took him to eat for free. How could he not work for others to pay off his debts?

Therefore, Li Chuyi seemed to have had a good habit of secretly saving money since he was a child. He tried every means to get money from the Taoist priests and secretly saved it for emergencies. Just like this time, Li Chuyi knew clearly that those four things were definitely worth more than 20,000 taels of silver notes, but between treasures and silver, Li Chuyi still hesitated.

After thinking for a long time, Li Chuyi secretly looked up at the Taoist priest and asked in a low voice: "Is ten thousand taels OK?"

The Taoist priest said nothing, just looked at him silently.

"Fifteen thousand taels?" Li Chuyi cried sadly.

The Taoist priest still didn't speak.

"Ten thousand head office?! I'm your apprentice! I also have a living! Can't you leave some pocket money for me?" Li Chuyi shouted with a face full of struggle.

The Taoist priest pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay, give me your 20,000 taels of silver notes, and I will give you a thousand taels of silver notes. Of these four things, the jade card is a bit weird, I took it away, and the other three Well, I’ll give it to you after I get out.”

After all, he saved a thousand taels, and Li Chuyi felt a little relieved.

He turned his back and unbuttoned the waistband of his pants, put his hand into his crotch, and fumbled for a long time. The pockets were sewn a little too hidden and were not easy to access. After groping left and right for a long time, I finally took out two banknotes stacked into a small square and handed them to the Taoist priest with a look of reluctance.

The Taoist priest took it and asked strangely: "You are so small and hard, so you feel uncomfortable when walking?"

Li Chuyi felt aggrieved for a long time and said in a low voice: "You can only become a master by enduring hardships!"

The Taoist priest sighed with a look on his face: "It's really hard for you!" After saying that, he took out a thousand-tael silver note from his arms and handed it over.

Li Chuyi quickly took it, turned his back, first folded the banknote into small pieces, then unbuttoned his belt, reached in, took it out again, and put the banknote away. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and tied his belt.

Looking at the Taoist priest walking forward, Li Chuyi's heart was bleeding.

After all this time, the 20,000 taels were gone again. Although they were exchanged for several treasures that far exceeded this value, the treasures could not solve the problem of food and clothing! Is it possible to tell the restaurant owner that this is the Cold Iron Sword, this is the inner elixir of the monster, please give me a bowl of rice? Why don't you let people think you are a liar and beat him to death!

Following the Taoist priest step by step, the little fat man's eyes rolled around, feeling all sorts of things in his heart.

After thinking wildly for a long time, Li Chu gritted his teeth.

What are you afraid of? ! The worst I can do is wash the dishes for another month!
