Daytime.
In Minyue County, there is a Taoist temple surrounded by walls.
Yi Bai sat on a stone chair, and a fat Taoist priest stood behind him, squeezing his shoulders.
"Chen Shen, how strong is this?"
The fat Taoist showed his big white teeth and said flatteringly.
"good."
Yi Bai enjoyed the Taoist's service.
"Then please enjoy it, God Chen!"
The fat Taoist tried his best to squeeze Yi Bai's shoulders.
Yi Bai nodded silently and relaxed his whole body.
When he felt it was almost done, he opened his mouth again and asked the fat Taoist to remove the dust.
The fat Taoist received the order and immediately took a broom to remove the dust.
Yi Bai looked at the busy fat Taoist and didn't know how to describe it.
He was originally from a Taoist temple and planned to clean up the dust and walls. He never thought that this person would break into the Taoist temple and say "bold evildoer".
After hearing this, Yi Bai felt that he was Huo'er. He immediately took out the brown orb and revealed his identity. At the same time, he was ready to fight with the fat Taoist.
He even took out Fo Ce.
Unexpectedly, when the fat Taoist saw the brown orb and heard that Yi Bai was the 'Chen position demon', his face changed drastically and he apologized repeatedly, almost kneeling down in front of Yi Bai.
Yi Bai can't handle this.
After some communication.
Yi Bai finally understood that this fat Taoist was an 'official fan', and knowing that he was the future Chen God, he naturally fawned over him.
Only then did the fat Taoist apologize and pinch his shoulders.
'Does the Taoist know everything already? This makes me, if anyone wants to find him, tell me my identity as Chen Yao. '
Yi Bai was suspicious.
He looked at the fat Taoist in the courtyard and asked aloud: "Master Yanming, right? Do you recognize the master of this temple?"
His inquiry made the fat Taoist stop his movements.
"The path is just Yanming. I dare not call myself a real person in front of Chen God! This temple belongs to my senior brother. My senior brother and I agreed to fight every ten years. Today I came here to keep the appointment. I never thought that Chen God would be here. I didn't know that Chen Chen God is visiting the temple, but there is something important?"
The fat Taoist 'Yan Ming' threw away the broom, bowed his hands and said.
When Yi Bai saw this, he was silent for a while. He was really surprised by the "official fanaticism" of Taoist Yanming.
This is already Taoist Yanming, the thirteenth or fourteenth time I have worshiped him.
In fact, he wanted to say that he still liked the Taoist's unruly look just now.
"The real person in this temple left earlier and has not returned yet. As for me... I am here to clean up the dust for him."
Yi Bai said calmly.
"Let Chen Shen get rid of the dust?! When did my senior brother reach this level of ability?!"
Taoist Yanming's face was full of shock and disbelief.
See this scene.
Yi Bai suddenly understood.
He asked why the Taoist monk asked him to clean up the dust.
It turned out that he was waiting here. He knew that his junior brother, an 'official fan', was coming to compete with him, so he was specially asked to sweep away the dust and walls.
All the dignified Chenshen have to help him clear away the dust and show how the Taoist can fight.
This Taoist man is really good at pretending...
Yi Bai couldn't even deal with it.
After all, that's right. Even if he hasn't transformed yet, he can still be regarded as a real Chen Demon and future Chen God.
With him as a foil, it is enough to show the ability of the Taoist.
"Sure enough, I shouldn't fight with it!"
Taoist Yanming sighed and said.
"Actually, it's not..."
Yi Bai still wanted to say something.
"Chen Shen, I know you want to comfort me, but I know that I am not as capable as my senior brother. I will leave after I finish removing the dust and sweeping the wall."
Taoist Yanming finished speaking.
Picked up the broom again and started working hard.
Yi Bai wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it.
He watched Taoist Yanming finish cleaning the bathroom and sweeping away the cobwebs on the wall.
After Taoist Yanming finished his work, he bowed deeply to Yi Bai and then climbed over the wall and left the Taoist temple.
Yi Bai watched the Taoist leave, speechless.
Seeing that the surroundings were completely new and there was nothing to do, he walked to the corner and sat down cross-legged, took out the Buddhist teachings and entered a state of meditation.
…
The rabbit rises and the darkness sinks.
Night falls.
Yi Bai's Qing Dynasty was interrupted.
The man climbed over the wall and caught a rabbit in his hand.
As soon as he came in, he dropped the rabbit on the ground.
Yi Bai looked around and saw that the rabbit was three feet long and had been dead for a long time. There was a strong evil aura lingering on the body, mostly evil aura.
'This is a big demon pill demon! '
Yi Bai's heart is clear.
He also knew that this rabbit must have done many evil things and was so evil that it was eliminated by the perverse person.
"Has my junior brother been here?"
The Taoist priest ignored the corpse of the rabbit demon and hurriedly asked.
"good."
Yi Bai nodded and said.
"Tell me, what happened at that time?"
"Your junior brother suddenly broke in and knew I was here, and then..."
"I didn't want to hear this. What was my junior brother's shocked expression at that time?"
Yi Bai: "..."
He looked at the naughty Taoist and felt helpless. He sighed and could only describe the expression on Taoist Yanming's face at that time.
After hearing this, the Taoist laughed and was overjoyed.
I laughed for a long time.
Only then did the Taoist monk stop.
"Okay, let's start a fight. I want to liberate this demon."
The Taoist priest pointed at the corpse of the rabbit demon.
Yi Bai agreed, but he was confused.
What is the difference between salvation... and fighting a fire?
Could it be that the art of salvation requires fighting fire?
Yi Bai went out in a daze to find a pile of firewood and lit a fire in the courtyard.
Then……
Then he watched the Taoist master pluck out the hair skillfully and put the rabbit corpse on the fire to roast it.
"This, is this transcendence?"
Yi Bai was shocked.
"Surely, transcend into my belly!"
The Taoist man grinned, looking crazy and crazy again.
"The real person is really good at learning the art of salvation."
Yi Bai said helplessly.
"Mild praise, ridiculous praise!"
After the Bian Taoist finished roasting the rabbit, he didn't mention sharing it with Yi Bai, and just started eating it by himself.
After a while, the entire rabbit carcass was eaten, leaving only the shelf.
"Speaking of it, Dao Chan was just like you back then. He stood by and watched me eat. It's just that Dao Chan was drooling all over the floor. You are so boring, boring!"
The Taoist man patted his butt, stood up and said.
"Why do real people like to play tricks so much?"
Yi Bai said.
"There is nothing to do in the barren mountains and mountains, so we should have some fun."
The Taoist said calmly.
"If a real person is so capable, why would he live in seclusion in the mountains of Minyue County?"
Yi Bai asked.
He really couldn't figure out why the Taoist would choose to live in the wilderness and deep mountains, which was not a beautiful place in the world.
With the ability of a Taoist, wouldn't it be wonderful to find a beautiful place to live in seclusion?
"Long Lord, do you think there are so few big demons doing evil in Shiwan Mountain?"
The Taoist priest showed a smile and said.
When Yi Bai heard this, he was shocked and felt admiration.
It turns out that the reason why Bian Dao chose to hide in the mountains of Minyue County was to suppress the big demon here.
This was true. He had been in and out of the mountains of Minyue County for several months in the past, and he had hardly seen any big demons.
Normally, a wilderness and deep mountain like this would be a place where monsters and monsters gather.
"A true man of great righteousness!"
Yi Bai bowed and showed even more respect.
"When you go to heaven and truly become an immortal, this place will be yours to take charge of."
The Taoist man stretched his body.
"The demon in the Chen position needs to suppress the evil demon that causes trouble. I wonder if you know, in addition to the twelve demons, what else needs to be done to suppress the demon?"
Yi Bai asked.
Although he is the appointed Chenshen, he is not very aware of the responsibilities of this position.
"I don't know, how do I know about this? But I heard that the position of the Twelve Demons is bigger than you think. I don't know how many grades. But the bigger the position, the greater the responsibility. You need to be mentally prepared."
The Taoist Master said, walking into the side room without saying anything more.
What exactly are the responsibilities of Chen position? What is the position of the Twelve Demons?
In the past, I heard the Golden Armored Divine General say that among the twelve earthly branches, the Chen position has the greatest responsibility. I don’t know what the responsibility is.
Yi Bai murmured in his heart.
He thought about it for a while, but he didn't have a clue, so he simply didn't think about it.
He then took out Buddhist teachings and entered a state of meditation to improve his own Dharma.
He didn't know what the responsibility was.
But he has a clear conscience in his heart. No matter what the responsibility, he needs strength after all.
He is currently too weak and needs to improve his strength.
At least he needs to reach the level of the Great Demon in Transformation.
Speaking of which, if you can achieve transformation, you are not far away from transforming into a dragon.
Yi Bai's mind was racing, he adjusted and began to practice hard.
…
Time flies, time flies.
In the blink of an eye, half a year passed.
Yi Bai has been staying in the Taoist temple for half a year. He helps clean the temple and sweep the walls every day, reads Buddhist teachings, and improves Buddhism.
After half a year of hard training.
Yibai's Dharma grew tremendously.
As time went by, he could find that the Taoist priests asked him to clean the dust and sweep the walls every day, which seemed to be intended to help him cultivate his mind.
The effect is also obvious.
Yi Bai could notice that he seemed to vaguely understand something, but also couldn't figure it out.
'Cultivation of the mind, what does it mean? '
Yi Bai looked up at the bright sky, feeling full of mysteries in his heart.
Da da da……
A strange sound sounded.
Yi Bai immediately gathered his thoughts and turned to look.
He had lived in the Taoist temple for half a year, how could he not know that it was the sound of climbing the wall.
Under Yibo's gaze
A young man stepped over the wall.
Yi Bai knew this young man, his name was 'Li Gui'. He often pestered Taoist people to learn Taoism, but he came from a wealthy family in Fu County, so he couldn't bear the hardship. He kept pestering him for a long time. Carrying water and climbing the wall, filling the Taoist temple with water and chopping firewood, he stayed there for a year and taught his true Dharma.
But this young man spent three days fishing and two days drying nets, but he couldn't hold on and continued intermittently.
Yi Bai hadn't seen Li Gui for three or four days, and he didn't expect to see him again today.
"gentlemen!"
When Li Gui saw Yi Bai, he didn't dare to make any mistake, so he raised his hand and said.
He was so afraid because he had been taught a lesson by Yi Bai.
"Why are you here again today? What's wrong with your head?"
Yi Bai looked away.
He found a big bump on Li Gui's head and couldn't help asking.
"It's not the old thief's fault!! He told me about the wall-penetrating technique, so I learned it. I never thought about it. I returned home and wanted to try it, but as soon as I bumped into it, I found that the wall-penetrating technique didn't work. It’s a big bump, it hurts.”
Li Gui rubbed the big bump on his forehead and grinned.
"Master Yanfa really said that you can pass through walls?"
Yi Bai stared at Li Gui with bright eyes.
The Taoist name of the Taoist is "Yanfa".
"This this……"
Li Gui hesitated and did not dare to speak.
"I guess you used your scattered achievements in carrying water and chopping firewood to force Master Yanfa, but Master Yanfa had no choice but to teach you the wall-penetrating technique, but is that so?"
Yi Bai had a clear mind and guessed the truth.
"That's...yes."
Li Gui gritted his teeth and admitted.
"What did the real person tell you before he left?"
Yi Bai stood up, picked up the broom, and asked himself.
"Let me not show off my magic...I, I am showing off."
Li Gui seemed to realize something, a look of shame appeared on his face.
When Yi Bai heard this, he knew what had happened. He stopped sweeping the floor, stared at it, and scolded: "You have a lazy personality and like your own vicious habits. The real person pities you and wants you to improve, but you can't bear the hardship. Now I see you stalking me, teaching you a skill or two, and telling you not to show off, but you have forgotten it."
"You've been hit hard now, and you still dare to say arrogant words and insult real people. Do you really think that real people have no temper?"
"Do you know that this temple is dedicated to the Nine Heavens Yingyuan Thunder Universal Transformation Heavenly Lord, who is in charge of Heavenly Thunder? If you dare to talk nonsense in this temple, aren't you afraid that the Heavenly Lord will strike your elm head with a thunder?! "
Yi Bai's tongue bursts with spring thunder, deafening.
Li Gui fell to the ground, not daring to say another word. He apologized again and again, quickly turned over and left the Taoist temple, not daring to stay.
Yi Bai looked at Li Gui's figure and shook his head silently.
The Taoist people have already said it.
Sincerity leads to spirituality.
This person is destined to be immortal, but he doesn't know it.
If you can stand firm and get rid of your vicious habits, you will surely be looked upon by those who are against the Taoism, and you may even be accepted as a disciple. That will be a great way to reach heaven.
It's a pity that it was wasted because it was hard to endure.
Yi Bai finally understood what it meant to "hate iron but not become steel".
He complained for a long time, then gathered his thoughts and turned to thinking about 'cultivation of the mind'.
'I don't know where the Taoist Bian has gone, otherwise I can ask the truth. But since I stayed in the Taoist temple, this Taoist man has been missing every day, disappearing from time to time for a month or two. '
Yi Bai is in trouble.
He sat cross-legged under the peach tree, meditating hard on how to cultivate his mind.
He had a vague feeling that if he could understand it, it would be of great benefit to him.
Yi Baiku sat under the peach tree.
This time I sat down for more than a month.
Yi Bai seemed to be in trouble.
He sat under the peach tree, his body covered by the dust that returned every day in the Taoist temple. He frowned and closed his eyes tightly.
I just feel like I don't understand yet, like looking at flowers in the mist or looking at the moon in the water, it's hard to see through.
Huhu...
In the Tianzun Hall of the Taoist Temple, a wisp of breeze blew out and blew through the peach trees.
Snap.
A ripe peach fell and hit Yi Bai in the head.
Boom!
Yi Bai was interrupted from thinking, and his mind was buzzing. He looked down at the peach, and then glanced at the peach tree behind him, feeling helpless.
He thought hard for a long time, but was interrupted by Tao Zi.
"It's autumn."
Yi Bai stood up and looked up at the sky.
It was early summer, now it is late autumn.
Yi Bai planned to sweep away the dust on the ground. He took two steps, suddenly turned back and looked at the peach tree.
This glance.
A flash of inspiration flashed in Yi Bai's heart, and he suddenly realized.
He felt as if thunder was rising from the ground in his mind, and he could see steaming golden energy, ghostly energy, and demonic energy. All kinds of energy seemed to appear in front of him, and after several twists and turns, they transformed into the whole world.
His perspective seems to be infinitely higher, seeming both illusion and reality, both true and false.
Yi Bai was in such a state for the first time and was panicked.
But he quickly realized that he had entered some kind of special state. He didn't know why, but he knew that it must be good for him.
He began to look around in all directions, wanting to get a closer look...
