Li Daoxuan held an oil-paper umbrella in his hand and a fish intestine sword hanging on his waist. He put all his luggage into the Three Realms Gourd and moved quickly towards Yuzhang City, which was three hundred miles away.

After entering the early stage of Bigu, his Taoist skills have greatly improved, and his Shukuchi magic skills have also become faster. The surrounding scenery seems to be distorted and quickly recedes.

After walking for more than an hour, the sky turned dark.

Li Daoxuan didn't know where he was. It should be in a mountain forest, surrounded by lush greenery.

He planned to find someone to ask for directions first.

This was also an inconvenience in ancient times. Without a map for navigation, it was easy to get lost.

Li Daoxuan walked for a while and finally saw an old man carrying firewood and preparing to go home.

The other party was startled when he saw a figure suddenly appear in the forest, but he relaxed a lot when he saw that it was a Taoist priest.

Taoism was the state religion of the Tang Dynasty. Even Li Shimin said that his ancestor was Laozi and Li Dan, so Taoist priests had a relatively high status in the Tang Dynasty.

"Li Daoxuan, a poor Taoist, has met a layman. Where is this place?"

When the old man saw the other party saluting him, he was a little flattered and said quickly: "Taoist Master, you're welcome. This is Cuiwei Mountain."

Cuiwei Mountain...

Li Daoxuan frowned and said, "Excuse me, layman, how far is it from Yuzhang City?"

The old man smiled and said: "You have asked the right person about this. I have been to Yuzhang City once, climbed over Cuiwei Mountain, kept going east, and walked more than a hundred miles to get there."

Li Daoxuan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had not gone in the wrong direction.

He handed over a few coins and said, "I'd like to thank you, layman, for your kindness."

The old man didn't want to accept it at first, but under Li Daoxuan's strong request, he still accepted it. At this moment, he was very fond of this handsome Taoist priest.

Common people from a humble background like him rarely receive such polite treatment.

Just when Li Daoxuan was about to leave, the old man hesitated, then took a step forward to persuade him: "Does this Taoist priest plan to walk at night?"

Li Daoxuan nodded and said: "Exactly, what's wrong?"

"If you don't mind it, Taoist Master, you'd better come with me and stay at the foot of the mountain for a night. The night roads here are... not peaceful!"

Not at peace?

Li Daoxuan's eyes lit up and he asked, "Is there something dirty here at night?"

There was a trace of fear in the old man's eyes, and he said: "To be honest with you, Taoist Master, several people died mysteriously while walking at night some time ago. I heard that their eyes were so wide that they must have seen something scary and dirty!"

"The government sent people to investigate. At first they said it was some gangster, but soon the people from the government died. Like the previous people, their eyes were very wide. From then on, no one here dared to do anything at night. coming."

The old man looked at the darkening sky around him, his body trembled, and he said in fear: "Taoist Master, let's go down the mountain quickly!"

Li Dao

"As for that dirty thing..."

Li Dao

The old man wanted to continue persuading him, but he saw the young Taoist priest walking away with a long laugh.

"Taoist Master, Tao——"

The old man stood there stunned, because in just a blink of an eye, the young Taoist priest disappeared, and the surrounding mountains and forests were silent, as if everything just now was just an illusion.

However, the old man looked at the few coins in his hand and determined that it was not an illusion!

The old man shuddered. He felt that he had either encountered a mountain spirit monster or an expert!

But remembering how polite he was before, he must be a real worldly expert!

He decided to treat these copper coins as family heirlooms. After all, they were gifts from masters, so there must be something special...

In Cuiwei Mountain.

Li Daoxuan slowed down, fearing that the dirty thing wouldn't notice him.

The Book of Demons has not been open for a while. I wonder if I will be lucky enough to encounter monsters this time?

As for whether it is possible to defeat it?

After Li Daoxuan was promoted to the early stage of Bigu, he had been practicing Taoism for more than ten years, plus various magical weapons, an immortal weapon, and a red-dressed man, so he was naturally confident.

The sky is getting darker and darker, the moonlight in the mountains and forests is dim, and everything is pitch black.

Li Daoxuan used his Dharma Eyes to easily avoid the thorns and walked gracefully on the night road. The only thing that bothered him might be the flying insects.

I don't know how long they walked, but just when Li Daoxuan thought that his plan was about to fail, blue flames suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

It's a will-o'-the-wisp!

Ordinary people would definitely be frightened and run away when they saw this scene, but Li Daoxuan's eyes lit up and he quickly walked in the direction of the will-o'-the-wisp.

Not long after walking, there were more and more will-o'-wisps, and the surrounding area became brighter and brighter.

A figure stood in front of Li Daoxuan.

His back was to Li Daoxuan, he was hunched over, wearing a large black robe, and his hair was light yellow.

Those will-o'-the-wisps surrounded him, and the green firelight shone on his body, looking very strange.

Barren mountains, ancient roads, will-o'-the-wisps, back figures...

If a timid person saw this scene, he would probably faint from fear immediately, but for Li Daoxuan, it was just a small scene.

He looked at the figure from behind carefully. Although the figure was wearing human clothes, he gave people the feeling of wearing a monkey's head.

It should be some kind of demonic beast.

At this time, the figure turned around slowly, revealing a lean face with cunning eyes and a sharp chin, as if...

Li Daoxuan's eyes lit up and he had already guessed the opponent's heel.

"Hunter, do you think I... look like a god?"

The man showed an infectious smile and asked Li Daoxuan in a hoarse voice.

Hearing this question, Li Daoxuan's eyes narrowed, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, and he also confirmed the guess in his heart.

The other party is not a human, but a yellow-skinned man!

The so-called Huangpizi is a weasel that has become a spirit, and the people also call it Wong Tai Sin.

Master once said that after a weasel reaches a certain level of cultivation, it will block the road and ask for a seal.

The so-called asking for a seal is to ask a passerby a question. If he asks if I look like a human being, then the answer is like a human being. Then the weasel can turn into a human form, the passerby can survive, and maybe he can get some repay.

But there is one situation that is an exception and is extremely dangerous!

That is the situation Li Daoxuan is facing now. What Huang Pizi is asking is not whether he looks like a human being, but whether he looks like a god!

People have no right to enthrone gods. If they answer like a god at this time, all the Yang Qi will be sucked away by the other party and die suddenly. If the answer is not like a god, Huangpizi will be angered and his internal organs will be eaten away.

This is a question that will lead to death no matter how you answer it!

The master said that Huang Pizi, who would ask such a question, had committed many murders at the beginning of his cultivation. His body must be covered in blood and filled with innocent souls. Don't hesitate to kill him directly if you encounter him!

"Young man, do you think I look like a god?"

Seeing that Li Daoxuan didn't answer for a long time, Huang Pizi seemed a little anxious. He asked again, staring at Li Daoxuan with his gloomy eyes, and yellow hairs appeared on his penetrating face...
