The silver-robed Taoist glared at him, originally wanting to give Tong Chen a blow, but he didn't expect that when he looked over... he saw that Tong Chen had been punched against the wall by Sun Yixie with his trident.
Speaking of which, Tongchen was also unlucky. According to his cultivation, even if he only had 30% of his combat power left, he would not be helpless in the face of Sun Yixie's surprise attack. However, when Sun Yixie rushed in At the moment in front of him, the sound of the bell came...
As mentioned before, this bell is from the Taoist temple where Tongchen stayed before becoming a spirit. For hundreds of years, he has been "beating" by the bell every day, and has formed a conditioned reflex. This is the same as when you leave school. It's the same feeling when I hear the bell ringing many years later and still feel my scalp tingling and my heart tightening.
Therefore, this bell is the nemesis of Tongchen. He just doesn't listen. Once he hears it - the first ring makes him dizzy, the second ring makes his spiritual consciousness scattered, and the third ring makes his body and mind tremble.
Simply put, while the bell is ringing, he is basically unable to do anything, neither maintain spells nor ward off attacks.
Just like that, he was stabbed by Sun Yixie with a trident again... and this time his head was stuck directly on the stone wall of the cave, and there was no way to "break away and escape" again.
Furthermore, with the silver-robed Taoist priest present, no matter what tricks Tong Chen tried to play, it would be in vain.
"Uh..." Seeing Tong Chen's state, the silver-robed Taoist priest realized that he no longer needed to be in such a threatening state, so he changed his attitude and said to Sun Yixie, "Young Master Sun, I wonder if I can put this intimidation Leave the evildoers to me, the poor man, to deal with them."
"Ah?" Sun Yixie heard this and looked up at him, "Who are you? Could you be this guy's accomplice?"
"No, no," the silver-robed Taoist replied with a wave of his hand, "Pindao is a member of Shushan Xuanqi Sect—Miaoyinzi. On the order of the head brother, he came here to rescue the two young heroes Huang Donglai and Sun Yixie."
His self-introduction made everyone present a little confused.
Huang Donglai thought for a while and said: "This Taoist priest, Huang is from a martial arts family, but I have never heard of a sect called 'Xuanqi Sect' in the world. Moreover, Brother Sun and I are related to You are strangers to each other, why did your leader send you to rescue us? Before that...how did he know that we were in trouble here?"
His question was reasonable, and Miaoyinzi seemed to have guessed that he would be asked this question, so she calmly replied: "Young Master Huang, don't worry, Pindao will answer these questions for you one by one later, but for now... Let me accept this monster first and then talk about it."
After saying that, Miaoyinzi waved his sleeves, picked up the fly whisk, and shouted in the direction of Tongchen: "Tian Luo Wei Net, Earth Yama Luo, close it!"
The shouting stopped and the Dharma seal appeared.
However, he saw a white light suddenly appear in the air, rushing towards Tong Chen's head like a whip rope. With just one touch, Tong Chen's head turned into black smoke and was trapped in the white light, and then was pulled all the way to the Taoist priest. Inside the small clock in your hand.
It seems... what Miao Yinzi said to Sun Yixie just now was just to be polite to him. Even if he didn't say hello, Miao Yinzi could still put the evil way away.
"It's not advisable to stay here for a long time. You'd better come up with me first. We'll talk later." Miaoyinzi took hold of the goblin and breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone looked at each other. Although they still had doubts and wariness in their hearts, they had no reason to reject each other for the time being.
To make a long story short, after a while, the four "survivors" Sun Yixie, Huang Donglai, Xie Run, and Lei Buji followed Mianyinzi back to Lanruo Temple above.
At this moment, the rain outside has stopped, but it is still night and the sky is not yet bright.
The five of them lit an oil lamp and sat down directly in the abbot's room. After all, this room was the most spacious and comfortable in the entire temple, with many places to sit.
"Everyone is justified." After Mianyinzi sat down, he saluted everyone again, but he was not very particular about it.
After all, he is a monk, and his seniority and age are actually higher than the four people present combined, so there is no need to be too polite to them.
Xie Run was quite polite. Regardless of what others thought, he still cupped his fists and raised his hands, and said seriously: "Xie Run, I have seen..."
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Miaoyinzi interrupted him: "Thank you, donor, you don't have to be polite..." He said and glanced at the four people again, "I know every one of you, There is no need to introduce them one by one; we as Taoists originally don’t pay much attention to these red tapes...it’s all nonsense, so don’t mention it.”
Sun Yixie said to himself that this Taoist priest was quite down-to-earth and suitable for communicating with an illiterate like him, so he said: "Okay, we won't be polite to you anymore. What did Brother Huang ask you just now? Brother, just tell me."
The shout of "brother" was not too much, because Miao Yinzi did indeed look in his twenties, and Xie Run was the only one present who looked older than him.
"Yes." Mianyinzi really didn't care about the title. He nodded, collected his thoughts for a while, and said, "You two, do you still remember Bai Ruhong?"
Shuang Xie naturally remembered it, so Huang Donglai quickly answered: "Oh? Are you, Taoist Priest, and Senior Bai from the same sect?"
"That's right." Mianyinzi said, "Senior Nephew Bai is a nominal disciple that my head brother accepted many years ago. Although he has poor foundation and poor qualifications, and cannot learn the Taoist techniques of our Xuanqi Sect, senior brother sees him He is a man of integrity and has a sincere heart, so he passed on a set of his sect's entry-level Qi techniques and a set of basic swordsmanship."
"Ah?" Huang Donglai and Sun Yi heard this and said this modal particle in unison.
Lei Buji didn't realize the problem, but Xie Runke was murmuring: "What do you mean? Bai Ruhong, a famous Yin Dao in the martial arts world, is not even a formal disciple in your sect? Then he Just relying on your 'basic' martial arts skills to take off in the world?"
Of course, Xie Run muttered these words in his heart, saying that he would not say them out loud.
"Alas..." Thinking of Bai Ruhong, Mianyinzi sighed, "My nephew Bai... is too upright and upright, so the incident in Luoyang was destined to happen to him." He paused. , "Fortunately... two young heroes, Sun and Huang, came to the rescue. At least he saved his life. I have to thank you again for him."
Everyone thanked them, and Sun and Huang responded with a couple of words: "It's easy to talk about, it's a big effort, and it's my duty to do it."
Bai Ruhong nodded again and continued: "You two have done a great favor to save the lives of the people in this sect, and we naturally have to repay you... A few days ago, my senior brother calculated that you will suffer a disaster here today, and it will be the disaster of evildoers. , although you two have extraordinary fates, facing this monster... Senior brother is still worried that something will happen to you, so he sent me here to help you." At this point, he sighed again, "Oh, I could have done it again. I arrived a day earlier, but I took a detour to Kunlun Mountain to retrieve the magic weapon to subdue this monster, which delayed me for a day. If I had arrived earlier, I might have been able to save a few more people."
"Taoist Master, you don't have to blame yourself." Huang Donglai said, "We are already very grateful that you can come."
This is true. Repaying a favor is not revenge. There is no particularly strong driving force. So what if they don't come? You don’t even know that you are indebted to people from the Xuanqi Sect.
"No matter what, since you are fine, then I have an explanation for my senior brother." Miao Yinzi read.
"Taoist Master." Sun Yixie changed his name to him at this time, no longer calling him brother, because Brother Sun felt that this brother was quite capable and had to be polite, "So, you, the 'Xuanqi Sect', What kind of sect is it? Also, at that age, Taoist Master Bai is actually your nephew? Isn’t the age difference between you and your senior brother a bit big? "
"Oh, well..." Miaoyinzi answered this question in a more casual tone, "My Shushan Xuanqi Sect belongs to the Taoist Immortal Sect, not a martial arts sect. It's normal for you not to have heard of it; as for me and I The age difference between senior brothers is not that big, both are less than 200 years old. I just look younger than senior nephew Bai. In fact, I was already like this when he went to the mountain to become a disciple when he was more than ten years old."
If it had been a day ago, the four people in front of them would definitely not believe his words, but after what they had just experienced, they basically believed it.
"Taoist Priest! I have a merciless request." A few seconds later, Sun Yixie rolled his little eyes and immediately came forward, speaking with a flattering look on his face.
"Hey, I know what you're going to say." Could it be that Miaoyinzi didn't know what this kid wanted to do? Before Brother Sun could clarify his words, he stopped him, "But where we accept disciples, it depends on fate. I only need to look at you and know that your temperament and foundation are not suitable for me." Daomen, so I think it’s better to forget it.”
After hearing this, Sun Yixie immediately said "What a chicken" in his heart, but since everyone said that, he could only curl his lips helplessly: "Oh, okay..."
"Hey~ Taoist Master, can I do that?" A second later, Lei Buji also brought his big black face over, like a child, and asked with a silly smile, "I also want to learn magic. "
"Don't ask." Mianyinzi said, pointing at Huang Donglai, "Among you, only Huang Shaoxia is suitable to learn from my Taoism."
Upon hearing this, Huang Donglai couldn't hold back: "Hahahahaha..." He laughed immediately, "Damn! Someone finally admits that I have talent!"
Unexpectedly, before he finished laughing, Mianyinzi poured cold water on him: "No, no, you don't have any talent, you are just 'able to learn'. Having bones and talent are two different things. There is such a thing as bones Just like six fingers, some people have them and some people don't. You can learn Tao if you have the bones, but it doesn't mean you will learn quickly."
"Hahahaha..." This time, Sun Yixie laughed, "Taoist priest, you should let him be proud for a while. You said it so straightforwardly, how embarrassing he is."
"Get out!" Huang Donglai immediately shouted at Sun Yixie, "I'm not embarrassed! After all, I still have the bones, and you don't!"
"Okay, okay, you're awesome, you're awesome." Sun Yixie was still smiling, "Whenever Brother Huang succeeds in cultivation, remember to give him a hand."
"I'll give you a fortune first after I'm done cultivating to see when you'll die!" Huang Donglai said unhappily.
Listening to the scolding between the two of them, Miaoyinzi also smiled: "Ha... you two, don't talk to yourselves. I didn't say I wanted to accept you; our sect has rules for accepting disciples. If you really want to become a disciple, Yuanshi Tianzun came to Shushan to look for our monastery on Christmas Day this winter solstice. If he can't find it, it means you have no fate with our sect. If you find it... then you have to talk about it."
As soon as these words came out, Sun and Huang became calmer, but they were not very disappointed because the other party didn't say anything to death. According to this meaning, Huang Donglai still had a chance.
"Speaking of which..." At this time, Miaoyinzi changed the topic again, "I came late today after all, and I didn't help you much, so even if I repay the favor... it's a bit unjustifiable." He thought. After thinking about it, "How about I give you two something else?"
"Okay! Okay, okay." Sun Yixie nodded quickly, "Give as much as you can. Don't worry about us being embarrassed. Any elixir that can enhance one's skill for a hundred years or a peach that can make people immortal. Come as you like, we can handle it. .”
"Ha...you have a beautiful idea." Miaoyinzi thought that Brother Sun was joking, so he smiled.
While talking and laughing, he picked up the big gourd on his waist, opened the stopper, and poured out a pill from it.
"Huang Shaoxia, you have an inhuman spirit of fighting in your body, twisting in your meridians and blocking your internal strength. You know this, right?" Mianyinzi is indeed an expert. He knew it just by looking at Huang Donglai. The other party has this situation.
"That's right!" Before Huang Donglai could answer, Sun Yixie said, "Since this guy swallowed a fart pill he made a month ago..."
Halfway through his words, Huang Donglai rushed over and covered his mouth: "Don't use random names! When did I refine the elixir you mentioned?"
Miaoyinzi was still very calm, and he continued: "That... of yours should be the elixir refined by Xie Zhi. Ordinarily, you can't eat it casually, because after eating it, Xie Zhi's spiritual energy will crowd out the human body's own elixir. The turbid air, if the turbid air cannot be discharged, the person will explode and die."
After what he said, Huang Donglai was really a little scared...
The reason why Huang Donglai survived after swallowing Xiedandan that night was actually a coincidence - because he had been practicing poison resistance since he was a child, his stomach and intestines had not been in good condition, so his body had an instinct to "detoxify with diarrhea" , even though he couldn't guide it by his own luck, the "turbid air" still "habitually" ran towards the intestines and was successfully expelled.
"In short, if you take another 'Qijiao Pill' in my hand now, once the two spiritual qi are reconciled, the qi in your body will be rebalanced. By then, you will not only be able to exercise your skills again, but your skills will also be greatly increased. "Miaoyinzi explained.
"Oh? Okay!" After hearing this, Huang Donglai took the pill and swallowed it in one gulp. After swallowing, he said, "Then Huang will thank the Taoist Priest."
"Don't be too polite." Mianyinzi said, "I'll give you another good thing."
As he spoke, he took out a long sword from his sleeve as if by magic.
Anyway, you are good at magic, so no one asked you how you could hide such a long thing in your sleeve.
"I think you only have concealed weapons and no weapons, so I might as well give you one." Mianyinzi put the sword in front of Huang Donglai, "This sword was used by a fellow cultivator many years ago. After his death , this sword has been among the people, and I got it by chance when I was traveling down the mountain recently." He paused, "That fellow was originally a court judge, and he was also considered a figure in the world. Because at that time, traitors were in power and the world was chaotic. , he became disheartened and retired to the mountains and forests. Later, he entered Taoism through martial arts and began to conquer demons."
When Huang Donglai heard that the setting sounded familiar, he blurted out: "Yan Chixia?"
"Eh? Have you heard of him?" Miao Yinzi said.
"What?" Sun Yixie was also shocked, "Is there really someone like Yan Chixia?"
"You've heard of it too." Mianyinzi said, "It seems that you two are really destined to be connected with Taoism." He didn't think there was anything to make a fuss about, and just continued, "In short, it's , Fellow Daoist Yan had two swords back then, one was the Xuanyuan Divine Sword that he used after he attained the Dao, and the other was the sword that he used before he attained the Dao... This is it. This sword has no name. When he was a judge, a blacksmith in the village he rescued gave it to him as a thank-you gift. It is the best sword in that village. In my opinion... let’s call it the ‘village sword’.”
Huang Donglai picked up the "Village Sword" and twitched the corner of his mouth twice: "Can I rename it? For example, 'Yitian Sword' or something like that."
"So I said you have no talent." Miaoyinzi shook his head, "The names of things are the same as the names of people. They have to be chosen according to their fate. If you name them too big, they will be affected by it. If you can't afford it, you will suffer a serious consequences; people in our Taoist sect are very casual, so this casual name is fine, do you understand?"
Huang Donglai thought to himself: You are so powerful, what are you talking about?
Brother Huang has finished taking the benefits, but Brother Sun is still empty-handed, so Sun Yixie quickly answered: "Taoist Master, I have a share in saving Senior Bai..." At this point, he glanced at Huang Donglai. After one glance, he looked back at Mianyinzi and said, "You won't favor one over the other, will you?"
"Don't worry." Mianyinzi smiled, reached out and grabbed Sun Yixie's trident, "Well... your weapon is pretty good." He looked at the trident carefully. He also read, "Not only is it made of a stone from the heavens, but the person who made this weapon also knows Taoism. No wonder even a Taoist demon like Tongchen can be controlled by it."
"No... Taoist Priest, it doesn't matter if you don't give me something, you can't give me one in return, right?" Sun Yixie thought that Mianyinzi wanted his trident, and he became anxious at that time.
"What are you talking about? Can I have something of yours?" As Miao Yinzi spoke, he turned his palm over and pointed two fingers of the other hand towards the trident, "I'll give you a Taoist seal and let you know. There is a secret on this weapon."
When he finished speaking, Sun Yixie's trident instantly shrank to the size of a chopstick.
"Look." Mianyinzi threw the shrunken weapon to Sun Yixie, "Isn't this much more convenient to carry?"
Sun Yixie took the mini version of the trident, held it in his hand, and laughed dryly: "Ha...it's convenient to carry it, but it's very laborious to stab people."
"Hey~ How could it be? Come here." Miaoyinzi waved to him and motioned for him to put his ear closer.
Sun Yixie nodded and obeyed, and Miaoyinzi said a few words in his ear.
"Oh~ which HODO~" After hearing this, Brother Sun immediately smiled and said a sentence in Japanese. Obviously, Miaoyinzi told him the method of making this thing bigger and smaller.
"Look how arrogant you are." Miaoyinzi smiled, "There's more."
The Taoist priest looked like that Doraemon, and he took out another thing: This thing... It's hard to describe. It looks like an oval rubber product, about the size of a mouse, and it's completely red, but It feels like a sponge to the touch and is slightly warm.
"Put this away. From today on, you won't be able to leave it." Mianyinzi handed over the object and said, "It can save your life in the future."
After Sun Yixie accepted it, he thanked him again and again, so I won’t go into details.
To everyone's surprise, after Miaoyinzi gave Shuangxie these things, he actually called Xie Run and asked him to go out alone to "say something."
Of course, this is a matter between Xie Run and Taoist Master, and Shuanghe and Lei Buji will not ask.
After they went out, Sun Huanglei and the others had nothing to do in the room. They were bored, so they started to behave like Japanese RPG protagonists - they started to rummage through the things in the room.
I never thought that this time, I would have an unexpected harvest...
