"Huh? What's wrong?"
Chu Chen looked at the cute little face of the little ghost and pretended to be confused.
The little kid suddenly became anxious.
"Senior brother, I...I have made a meritorious service, do you want to give me a reward? Look, those princes and nobles went out hunting and caught prey, and they were not allowed to give a profit to the hunting dogs. I...I. ..”
Chu Chen couldn't help but laugh, what was going on in this little devil's mind.
This metaphor...
"Hahaha, little devil, you gave the wrong example. Why did you compare yourself to a hunting dog? Can my little devil be the same as a dog?"
As he spoke, Chu Chen couldn't hold back his smile and burst into laughter.
"No, no, no, I am the hunting dog!"
A sly look flashed across the kid's face, and he was old-fashioned: "Senior brother, don't put a high hat on me like the master, and praise me so much that I get dizzy and distracted, and finally forget the reward. I have learned to be smart a long time ago. .”
"I am the dog!"
After saying that, the little ghost imitated the dog barking perfectly:
"Woof woof woof~"
Chu Chen was dumbfounded.
For the sake of fragrance, don’t be immoral at all.
"Hahahaha~ Little devil, you are almost making me laugh to death."
Chu Chen laughed heartily.
"Okay, okay, senior brother, there will be many rewards. For the next six months, senior brother Xiang, I will take care of everything."
"Suck as much as you want?"
The little ghost's eyes were shining, full of little stars.
"Well, you can smoke as much as you want. The only requirement is not to overdose. The medicine is three-thirds poisonous, and the incense is also poisonous. If you smoke too much, it will affect your practice." Chu Chen explained with a smile.
"Oh oh oh~ Senior brother is mighty!"
The little kid simply ignored what Chu Chen said and swayed happily from side to side, like a little roly-poly.
"Senior brother, I know you are much more generous than me. He picks the ropes and sends people to work without paying him any wages. He is like a landlord and a rich man. It is better to be my senior brother, hehehehe!"
The little ghost boy was so happy that he kept talking and chattering.
"Senior brother, why don't you say anything? Hey, why are you pointing at me?"
The little kid was quite puzzled and turned back to look in the direction of Chu Chen's finger.
"Ah~"
The little devil's face froze, he stumbled, and felt quite guilty:
"Master...Master, why are you walking without making any sound or showing any breath? It scares me to death."
Taoist Xu Ping glanced at Chu Chen and Xiao Guizai, and then his eyes fell on Xiao Guizai:
"Ahem~ Little devil, who do you think is the rich landlord?"
"Ah~"
The little kid felt guilty, but he kept his promise and rubbed the corners of his clothes with his little hands: "No... How dare I say that you are a landlord and a rich man? What I mean is that you are a disciple of a strict teacher. You have taught my senior brother and I so well. It is really amazing." Well, the little devil admires you."
"Stop it! I heard everything, you don't have to explain."
Taoist priest Xu Ping waved his hand, interrupted the kid's flattery, and said seriously:
"It is a crime of great disrespect to talk about the teacher in private. Little devil, do you know your mistake?"
"I realize my mistake." The little ghost nodded weakly: "Master, I accept the punishment and I just ask you not to take away my incense."
Taoist priest Xu Ping felt dumbfounded, and the serious expression on his face almost stopped.
"I won't deduct your incense, but I can't ask for more than thirty incense sticks from your senior brother every month. It's over the limit and it will easily affect your practice. Are you convinced?"
"Be convinced, be convinced!"
The little devil, who was like a beaten cock, suddenly became alive again when he heard that there were still thirty incense sticks in one month.
"Brother, give me five sticks of incense first."
Chu Chen smiled and handed the little ghost five sticks of incense and sent him away.
After the little ghost boy left, Chu Chen and Taoist Master Xu Ping smiled at each other in tacit understanding.
"Don't give the little devil so much incense, it's not good for his cultivation."
Taoist priest Xu Ping shook his head and warned.
"Thank you, Master, for coming today." Chu Chen smiled: "Master, this time we went to the mountains, we gained a lot. We made one hundred thousand jade coins at once, and the three of us shared it equally. Each of us got more than thirty thousand jade coins. The little devil followed the whole process and made great achievements, so it’s not good if I don’t give him some sweetness.”
Taoist priest Xu Ping was quite surprised that Chu Chen and the others made 100,000 jade during this trip.
Even if he has reached the sixth level of Taoism and practiced deep into Longling Mountain, he may not be able to earn tens of thousands of jade coins after working hard for a month.
Taoist priest Xu Ping suddenly became interested and asked them about their experience in the mountains.
Chu Chen started from Wang Ping and Xiucai's discovery that a group of Jiangzhen Incense trees were about to turn into spiritual incense, and then mentioned that the fox demon used the Jiangzhen Spiritual Incense to lure the divine tiger down to the lower realm, practice secret techniques, encounter tribulations, etc. He told them all, and Nothing to hide.
After hearing the bizarre experience of his apprentice, Taoist Xu Ping was not interested in the harvest of tens of thousands of jade coins, but was concerned about other things.
"Show me the fox tail tattoo."
Chu Chen rolled up his sleeves.
Taoist priest Xu Ping looked at it carefully.
After a long time, he muttered:
"Dean Cang Qingzi is right. It is indeed not a curse. Instead, it is like the original energy of the fox demon. It is full of spirituality and not violent. It does not harm you at present."
As he spoke, Taoist Xu Ping's eyes shone, which was quite magical.
"As long as it's not harmful!"
Chu Chen still had great confidence in his master, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well, but don't take it lightly. Anyway, you have made a lot of money this time. Don't go to Longling Mountain to hunt for treasures in the near future. Instead, study hard in Taoist temples and academies. This money will be enough for you to spend for a while."
"Yes, disciple knows."
...
In fact, Chu Chen, Wang Ping, and Xiucai do not plan to go to Longling Mountain in the near future.
A total of thirty thousand jade coins was enough for three people to spend a period of time.
Especially Chu Chen.
After a trip to Longling Mountain, he deeply understood his own weakness and saw how big the sky outside was.
In Xin'an County before, the demons he encountered were all lowly little demons, and the strongest ones were only ninth-grade demons.
This time when he went into the mountains, he encountered many monsters above the eighth level, and even encountered a big monster above the seventh level.
Facing so many powerful monsters, he felt a sense of urgency about his own strength, especially the means to save his life.
Taoist cultivation cannot be rushed, but life-saving means can be improved.
The spell [Egg Yolk Formation] is good, but it is still a little weak against the big monster.
In the next period of time, he planned to use it to practice the escape technique [White Crane and Purple Zhi Escape].
After practicing [Vajra Spiritual Sword Technique] for a period of time, he had a vague understanding of the secrets of the great avenue, which was greatly beneficial to his practice of [White Crane and Purple Zhi Escape].
After these days of pondering, he had some vague insights and had the foundation to practice [White Crane and Purple Zhi Escape].
In order to refine [White Crane and Purple Zhi Escape], in addition to understanding the secrets of the great road, the most important thing is to sacrifice the "Crane Tablet" and "Cao Tablet".
Both magic cards require carving and refining of Leizhen jujube wood, which in other words requires money.
He has.
Among them, the "Crane Tablet" sacrificial refining requires the use of the pure spiritual incense "Introduction to the Crane God" from the lower realm.
He has it too.
It can be said that everything is ready, all it takes is action!
