In the Ten Thousand Snake Mountains, Bai Jun's heart moved, as if he felt something involving him, but it was difficult to feel the specific matter. He just looked to the north, what would he have there?
Bai Jun didn't go into details. He had never been a persistent person.
Now he is a god in the middle realm, comparable to the realm of a great demon in disguise. With more than two hundred years of accumulation and followers spread over thousands of miles, Lu Yutang's incense stick became the key to his success. A second-grade official is burdened with the destiny of the dynasty, and his words and deeds contain the general trend of human destiny. His incense stick It is more valuable than ten thousand sticks of incense.
Therefore, when the gods meet passing officials, they all treat them with respect and even greet them personally. All they ask for is to enter the temple and offer incense.
But most officials above the fifth rank know this and will never offer incense easily, because it is also related to their own official career. If they worship a god when they meet one, wouldn't it mean that all the great things they have in themselves will be used up? In Jin's luck, if you are not careful, you will suffer disaster and be punished and jailed.
Bai Jun was promoted because of this line of incense that blessed the fortune of the dynasty. He cultivated into the realm of Shinto Yangshen, condensed the gods' orders, and held the power of gods.
Now in the Ten Thousand Snake Mountains, Bai Jun is comparable to a great demon in disguise. But outside of the Ten Thousand Snake Mountains, his strength will decrease. The farther away from Qinan Prefecture, the weaker his strength. This is the commonality of all incense gods, and it is also their commonality. Due to the restrictions, one cannot stay away from the place where the incense is offered.
Bai Jun asked Lu Yutang to worship his longyi spirit body every time there was a change of generations, as a guide.
If he really uses this secret technique of escaping tribulations one day, he will be reborn in the coffin next to the water pool in the underground palace under the Lu family's ancestral hall.
However, there are many restrictions on escaping life and death, violating yin and yang, and deviating from reincarnation. At that time, he was considered dead. If he wanted to live again, he needed someone's anger to guide him, and he also needed an aura that could awaken his own consciousness. For example, the white jade scales given to Lu were his own castrated scales.
Therefore, even if Lu Yutang didn't say anything, he would secretly protect the Lu family's inheritance.
Although Bai Jun has not yet transformed into a demon and has little practice in demon cultivation, the demon Tao is inherently timeless and the divine Tao is easy to achieve, so the Incense Divine Tao precedes the demon Tao and can protect him.
Bai Jun can now be considered to be on par with several great transformed demons.
But he made no noise, kept silent, and waited until he came, never to reveal all his power.
Moreover, he was only in the realm of the God of Incense and Fire, so he would definitely not be a match for the three great demons after leaving Wan She Mountain.
…
The autumn sunshine in the sky is pale and weak, the sky is high and the clouds are deep, there is a green snake coiled on the top of the mountain to bask in the sun.
Qing Cang lazily curled up in a ball and glanced at the birds that were frightened by him and flew away with their wings, screaming, and became a little uninterested.
Bai Yan looked at the trapped green snake and felt helpless. As the incense he gathered in the Ten Thousand Snake Mountains grew stronger, the demonic power in Qing Cang's body was being suppressed. Not only did it interfere with his mind and affect his cultivation, it also made Qing Cang instinctively want to escape from the Ten Thousand Snake Mountains.
This may be the natural suppression of demons in the land of Incense and Fire, and Bai Jun is quite helpless.
After thinking about it, he decided to find a good place for Qing Cang, otherwise his mind would have to be suppressed by these Shinto incense over time.
Bai Jun stretched out his hand, raised the divine wind, and called out: "Come quickly!"
As soon as the voice fell, the divine wind was blowing straight to the west, blowing continuously. In the blink of an eye, the wind and clouds were blowing hundreds of miles away. After the wind started to rise, within half a cup of tea, a leopard was seen being frightened by the divine wind. The wind was blowing.
"Hoo~"
The wind blew, and the leopard fell to the ground with a plop. None of its four claws were soft, and it had not yet recovered from the sky.
It wasn't until he saw a huge green snake looking at him curiously in front of him that he suddenly trembled and crawled to the ground.
Bai Jun transformed into a human form, waved his hand and pushed away Qing Cang in front of the leopard, and said calmly: "Little leopard demon, considering that you have abided by my words for many years, how about I give you a name today?"
"Name?" Huapibao was confused for a moment, and then he thought angrily: "You old monster, will you be kind enough to correct my destiny?"
But people under the eaves have to bow their heads. It could only nod.
Naming and fixing one's destiny is not just about calling a person a random name. In cultivating a soul, naming belongs to the name. Correcting one's name and fixing one's destiny is extremely important, as it is related to one's own destiny and future.
Bai Jun looked at the spotted leopard for a few times, then suddenly chuckled and said: "You are wandering in the mountains and forests, and you are a yellow-skinned leopard with spotted skin, so I will give you a name and change it to Golden Leopard. how?"
"Golden leopard? What kind of leopard is that?" It felt strange in its heart and looked at Bai Jun in confusion.
Bai Jun smiled and said: "In the world of mortals, all karma and benefits are money. You, the Golden Leopard, can be passed down to the world, and you can gain incense and faith. If you have good luck in the future, I will accept you as my assistant god. In the future, you may not be able to achieve immortality and achieve immortality, and live a happy life!"
The leopard's eyes were stunned, and he was shocked. Can it become an immortal or a god? Is what this old monster said true? It seems that the other party is quite good and thinks so much about himself.
Demons are sometimes cunning and sometimes simple. When hunting, their intelligence is not inferior to humans, but when talking to and dealing with people, they are simple and direct, and their brains are not working well.
The Golden Leopard thought for a while, then whimpered and happily agreed.
Seeing this, Bai Jun reached out and pointed at the center of his eyebrows, and the drop of Baiji poison flew out of the golden leopard's body.
Then he gave a hint of the true meaning of the divine order, condensed into the words "wealth" and "rich", and integrated into him.
Suddenly, the leopard's body emitted dazzling golden light, and the leopard prints everywhere on its body seemed to have turned into countless copper coins and gold, making it look golden.
On the top of the mountain, Bai Jun looked at the strange beasts around him. The green snake was on the left, the golden leopard was on the right, and the true god was accompanied by the strange beasts on the left and right. It looked like the true image of the immortal god.
Bai Jun said: "Golden Leopard, you already have the false authority of the god of incense and wealth that I gave you. In the future, you can give more money, gold and silver to mortals, which are the two kinds of stones in the mountain."
As he spoke, a piece of gold and a piece of silver appeared in his hands, and they were given to the Leopard to take a closer look at.
Bai Jun said to Qing Snake again: "Qing Cang, you can follow the golden leopard to live in his valley for a while."
"What?" Qing Cang asked in confusion: "Brother, you can also give me a hint of the divine order like the golden leopard, isn't that enough?"
Bai Jun shook his head, "You are too shallow-minded. I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand the interference of incense and will abandon the demon path. Besides, you may have strengthened bloodline in the future, and you may one day fly into the sky and transform into a dragon. If this hurts your foundation, then Isn't it too silly?
The mountainous area of the Golden Leopard is only a hundred miles away from Wanshe Mountain. It is not disturbed by the incense, and the Golden Leopard is there to take care of it. "
Green Snake thought for a while and finally agreed.
Qingcang and Leopard climbed and walked side by side, leaving the Snake King Valley.
In fact, apart from the incense, Bai Jun is still worried about the vitality of the mountains. As his cultivation level increases day by day, he absorbs more and more vitality of heaven and earth every day. It is okay for these mountains to support him with a big demon, but with Qing Cang, it may not be enough.
To absorb vitality and increase demonic power, the amount absorbed is not the same every day. There is naturally a huge difference in the energy of heaven and earth that a little demon of two or three hundred years old absorbs every day from a big demon in disguise.
This is true even if you take a wrong path. A century-old demon with a weak cultivation level can swallow a human's flesh and blood, and after refining, it can increase the demon's power for decades.
But if an old demon who has practiced for thousands of years swallows a human, it will only increase the demon's power for one or two years at most. Moreover, the demonic power gained from cannibalism is, after all, a foreign object and not a demonic power obtained through hard work, so the quality is not as good as the demonic power cultivated by absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth.
In fact, the demonic power accumulated by eating too many people will damage the foundation, and it will be targeted by some demon-killing people, which may lead to the disaster of killing.
There is no shortage of people in Buddhism who go around looking for monsters that they believe have deep karma to demonstrate the Buddha's teachings.
Bai Jun now has to deal with the prayers of some believers with great demands every day. He goes to the God's Realm for an hour every day and selects a dozen believers to help him realize his dream.
Naturally, Bai Jun ignored some unrealistic delusions.
God can only guide you in the direction. To gain something, you need to work hard.
The Ten Thousand Snake Poison Techniques are still being practiced, and the snakes in the Ten Thousand Snake Mountains have gradually returned to their original size. New varieties of snakes will occasionally breed among different snake species, and the precious venom of these snakes is used by Bai Jun.
…
At the bottom of the mountain, outside a village.
The golden leopard carefully looked around the village and quietly stepped into the village. The old snake demon said that if you give more wealth to people, you can keep the incense and be worshiped by people. He will try it today too.
However, as soon as he stepped into the village, he encountered several local dogs fighting and chasing each other.
Dog eyes to leopard eyes, the next moment.
"Woof! Woof woof woof!"
"Woo~ woof! woof! woof!"
"Woof woof woof!"
The harsh and noisy barking of dogs gave people a headache, and the leopard was so frightened that he ran away. He hid at the entrance of the village and watched several ferocious and barking native dogs, feeling extremely panicked.
Suddenly, he remembered that he was a wild leopard, and how many local dogs dared to bark at him?
So, the leopard swaggered out again, staring at the few local dogs with a pair of leopard eyes, and the aura of the beast as an apex predator suddenly rose.
Several local dogs were instantly frightened and ran away in panic.
The wild leopard snorted coldly in his heart, and with a single leap of his paw, he knocked down a native dog. The dog in his hand was so skinny that it barely gained a few kilograms of fat.
He roared in dissatisfaction at the local dog: "Woof!"
Are you the only one who can call? Who can scream so fiercely, right? Your Grandpa Leopard, my screams are much more powerful than yours.
Seeing the shock in the dog's eyes, Golden Leopard was greatly satisfied, so he roared viciously at the black-skinned native dog he had caught, "Woof!"
In the village, a man and two little children ran out of a house that heard a dog barking. The three of them looked at the big leopard imitating the barking of a dog in surprise.
It wasn't until the colorful leopard turned its head that the hunter remembered that it was a leopard and a wild beast!
He hurriedly rushed into the house with the two babies in his arms.
As soon as the golden leopard saw the person and wanted to show off, the person ran away. He was so anxious that he slapped the black native dog away with his paw and threw the man down at lightning speed.
The man was so frightened that he pushed away the two children in his arms, grabbed the wild leopard's paw and tried to fight to the death.
The golden leopard looked at the man who was holding his paw strangely and was reluctant to let go. Could it be that he was too attractive?
His mood suddenly improved, and he shook his body, "Swish, swish, swish~"
After a tremor, a piece of gold and silver was scattered on the ground, which was so bright that the man was stunned.
The leopard grinned proudly, turned around and swaggered toward the outside of the village, swaying its long leopard tail proudly.
"Ouch! Damn it! The monster is here! The monster is here! Come give us gold!" The man shouted excitedly and nonsense while holding a piece of gold and silver on the ground.
"You're a guy who's been stabbed a thousand times, what are you talking about?" A thick female voice sounded in the room, and a rather strong woman came out.
The two little kids also stuttered: "Leopard, leopard, learn like a dog, the dog barks...Give it back to us, give it to us, give it to us, give it to us!"
When the woman saw the gold and silver held by her man on the ground, she was dumbfounded. "Oh! Oh my God! I'm so rich! So much gold, isn't it just a dream?"
"No, it's not a dream, it's real." The man said stupidly.
The woman suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly took the gold and silver on the ground into her arms, and cursed: "You bastard, you went out to eat and drink in broad daylight, and you talked nonsense when you were drunk. Now I If I don’t teach you a lesson, you don’t deserve to be called Tu Dou Sanniang!”
"Are you crazy?" The man couldn't help but get angry after being beaten and scolded by his mother-in-law, and he cursed: "You crazy woman, you..."
Before he finished speaking, the mother-in-law covered her mouth, leaned into his ear and whispered softly: "You idiot, your voice was so loud just now, the two families on the left and right probably heard it, don't say that you were drunk and talking nonsense. , do you still want them to worry about this gold given by the gods?
Good man, you don’t want your home to be missed by those who don’t guard the door, right? "
Hearing this, the man reacted and was about to say that the mother-in-law really has you, when there was a slap and a slap on the face...
Next door, Aunt Wang curled her lips and glared at the old man who was eavesdropping in the corner of her house, "How old are you, and you still listen to other people's young couples in the corner, and you are not afraid of embarrassment?"
"Hey, didn't I hear something about gold and silver?" Old Man Zhang smiled awkwardly.
"Are you stupid? That Tudou Sanniang is a shrew who sells tofu. She defeated her parents to death. Who dares to marry her? Li Ergou, a bachelor with no money and no house, married her to be his mother-in-law. He sneaked out to eat and drink. He must have eaten too much and was talking nonsense." Aunt Wang held a dustpan of dried pods and sneered: "Just the first one, you know? I went to town to talk nonsense. Bu saw Li Ergou drunk again in the wine shop, and he was talking about dreaming about his father and about the big white snake."
Old Man Zhang couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, "Don't his family believe in that kind of fairy who protects the family? Then Sanniang Tudou bought some tofu and put incense on some little statue all day long, but she didn't see her parents bless her?"
"Hey, why do you think we are so unlucky? The house we live in is next to this shrew who killed my parents, so it will bring a lot of misfortune. I really hope that his family will move out soon.
What kind of Baojiaxian do you still believe in? I don’t believe in that. If I have the time, I might as well go to the Earth Temple in town to pray for its miraculous effects. "Aunt Wang said disdainfully.
Aunt Wang complained casually, but she didn't expect it to actually work. Three months later, Li Ergou's family and his fierce wife moved to the town with their two children and bought a small courtyard to live in. People in the villages were jealous.
Someone asked Li Ergou about his story, but he said that his mother-in-law bought the small courtyard with the inheritance left by his parents. He won a lot of money in the casino several times, but his mother-in-law stopped gambling, so he naturally had a lot of money. some.
One day, Tu Dou Sanniang went to bed at night and dreamed of a land of tall buildings that she had never seen before. Each one of them was so beautiful that she, who had never read a book, could only marvel at it. When he looked up, he saw four characters written on it, Liu Xian Shen or something.
She naturally recognized the three characters Liu Xian Shen. After all, she had worshiped Liu Xian for many years and had memorized these glyphs. She raised her head and looked into the distance, only to see a white figure descending from the sky in a divine light. It was an extremely handsome divine man in white. He was holding a jade bottle and making a spell with one hand. A white snake appeared behind him, and a figure was lying underneath him. A golden leopard.
Tu Dou Sanniang knelt down excitedly and said: "Greetings to Liu Xian, Liu Xian has appeared! Thank you very much for Liu Xian's gift of gold and silver to my family. My little girl, I will burn incense and pray for you every day!"
The white-clothed divine man slowly opened his mouth and said: "For hundreds of years in this world, our ancestors have cultivated blessings and benefited their descendants. Your father once released an egg-laying female snake at the boundary of Wanshe Mountain. He also encountered snakes many times and respected them. He has accumulated good deeds for thirty years. , in exchange for you having a good husband, good son, and good money in this life, I hope you will cherish it!"
Tu Dou Sanniang was about to kowtow her thanks when she realized that her vision went dark. When she opened her eyes, she could hear the man's snoring, as well as the sounds of her two sons talking in their sleep and grinding their teeth.
She thought of the scene in her dream, the golden leopard lying under Liu Xian, and felt extremely grateful.
He stood up slowly, and for the first time at night, he quietly did not wake up his husband. He came to the small shrine at home where Liu Xian was enshrined, clasped his hands and knelt down in worship.
The next day, she told her husband about the incident, and Li Ergou also felt that it was very possible that Liu Xian had appeared.
So the couple built a large shrine in the house and asked someone to build a new statue of the Willow Immortal. Now there is a three-foot-tall stone statue enshrined in Tudou Sanniang's house.
A white-clothed god holds a vase in his left hand and holds a curse in his right hand. He is wrapped in a white snake and has a leopard crouching under his body. He does good deeds in the world, gives away wealth and accumulates virtues, and is very compassionate.
