Night gradually fell, and Xuzhou City, which had been bustling for a day, finally gradually became quiet.
The name of Li Daoxuan of Longhu Mountain has spread throughout the streets and alleys of Xuzhou. The white horse crosses the river, the unicorn catches ghosts, and the gourd subdues demons. These extremely legendary things have been processed by countless people and become more and more outrageous.
Some people even suggested that a statue of Li Daoxuan should be built beside the Sishui River.
The restaurant where Li Daoxuan drank was even more popular. People rushed to buy it, wanting to taste the taste of the wine that the gods drank.
But the center of all this, Li Daoxuan, did not leave Xuzhou City immediately.
He quietly returned to the city, used the magical power of magic prayer to ask for directions, and found Zhang Laowu who had fallen into the Sishui River but escaped alive.
The whole matter seemed to have come to an end, but Li Daoxuan always felt that something was wrong, and the main suspicion was this Zhang Laowu.
There were eight water ghouls in the water, and even the bad guys in the late period of Bigu were dead. How did he escape?
And after escaping, he yelled like crazy all day long, saying that he saw thousands of water ghouls, more than the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals...
night.
Li Daoxuan quietly sneaked into Zhang Laowu's home, used the magical power of magic prayer, and asked for news.
Zhang Laowu is an old man who lives alone. He comes from a poor family and makes a living by fishing. He was very hungry before, so he took the risk and went to the Sishui River.
"How many water ghouls have you seen before?"
Li Daoxuan asked.
Zhang Laowu looked dull and replied honestly: "Thousands and thousands, too many to count..."
Li Daoxuan frowned slightly, which showed that the other party was not lying. There are only two explanations now. The first is that there were really so many water ghouls in the Sishui River, but they mysteriously disappeared before his arrival.
The second is that Zhang Laowu was so frightened that when he saw the eight water ghouls swimming over, he thought they were everywhere and even regarded things like water plants as water ghouls.
After pondering for a moment, Li Daoxuan continued to ask: "How did you survive that day?"
"I was so scared that I even forgot to run away. At this moment, the river suddenly rose, and I didn't know why, so I landed on the shore."
After listening to Zhang Laowu's words, Li Daoxuan's eyes flashed, seeming to confirm a certain guess in his heart.
He drove away in the clouds, left Zhang Laowu's home, and quickly flew out of Xuzhou City and arrived in a wilderness.
Li Daoxuan patted the Three Realms Gourd, and the mouth of the gourd opened automatically, and a slender white snake flew out from inside.
White Snake did not run away this time, but looked at Li Daoxuan with fearful eyes. In its eyes, this Taoist priest was really terrible. In front of him, it had no hope of escaping.
hiss!
White Snake thought Li Daoxuan was going to kill it, so it straightened up and made an attack gesture.
Unexpectedly, Li Daoxuan smiled slightly, his voice softened a lot, and said: "If I guess correctly, you were the one who rescued Zhang Laowu when he fell into the water that night."
This white snake has the natural ability to control water, and its demonic aura is extremely weak, which shows that it does not usually feed on human blood.
A mere snake actually had the heart to save people and did good deeds, which Li Daoxuan admired very much.
White Snake had extraordinary intelligence. He seemed to understand Li Daoxuan's words and actually nodded to him.
Li Daoxuan stretched out his hand to touch the white snake, but was frightened.
"Haha, don't worry, I won't hurt you. I'm giving this elixir to you to express my apology."
Li Daoxuan took out a vermilion pill and threw it to it.
He didn't have much else, but he had no shortage of elixirs. Before leaving Longhu Mountain, Uncle Dabao gave him dozens of bottles of elixirs at once, some for healing, some for cultivation, some for nourishing the body, and even some for making people feel better. People are poisoned.
This is also the advantage of being backed by a large sect. In terms of cultivation resources, compared with those wild Taoist priests, it can be said that they are in the sky and on the earth.
White Snake smelled the strong aroma of the medicine, hesitated, and swallowed the medicine.
Soon, it showed a relieved expression, and in just a few moments, the wounds on its body bitten by the black jade unicorn quickly healed.
hiss!
There were some changes in the way it looked at Li Daoxuan.
"Although you are a monster, you have never hurt anyone. On the contrary, you can save people who fall into the water. For this reason, I will not hurt you."
After a pause, Li Daoxuan said with a smile: "You go, but don't go back to Xuzhou City. There are many people there. If you meet a bad-tempered Taoist priest who kills you indiscriminately, then That would be such a shame.”
"Go to the mountains, jungles, rivers, lakes and seas. Maybe that's your destination."
White Snake was doubtful and tentatively crawled a little further away. Seeing that Li Daoxuan really had no intention of catching it, it immediately jumped into the jungle and disappeared.
Li Daoxuan shook his head and smiled, then sat cross-legged on a piece of bluestone and began to practice.
Six thousand acupoints in his body were faintly glowing, swallowing the moonlight between heaven and earth. The bright moonlight enveloped his whole body, and rich spiritual energy poured into his body from all directions.
Looking from a distance, it really looks like an immortal practicing mystical skills. Every strand of hair is filled with moonlight. The grass and trees under the bluestone become extraordinarily green and full of vitality because they are nourished by spiritual energy.
After an unknown amount of time, a figure poked its head out from the grass. It turned out to be the white snake.
It went and came back, looking at Li Daoxuan who was practicing in the distance, feeling the rich spiritual energy around him, and instinctively drove it closer, and finally stopped under the bluestone where Li Daoxuan was meditating.
The white snake's skin was flowing with fluorescence, and it actually began to breathe in the moonlight spiritual energy.
After the monsters turn on their spiritual intelligence, they will automatically awaken the instinct of swallowing the moonlight, so many monsters worship the moon. People often see animals kneeling towards the moon in the deep mountains and forests.
White Snake has extraordinary blood and extraordinary intelligence. It is vaguely aware that meeting this man may be its greatest opportunity.
Just by practicing beside this Taoist, he has benefited a lot and gained a lot.
…
In the early morning, the sun begins to rise, the red sun breaks, and the rooster sings white.
Li Daoxuan did not stop practicing, but continued to breathe in the morning glow purple energy.
Although he switched to the "Five Thunder Yang Yuan Gong", he can still absorb the purple energy of morning glow. This purple energy is very precious and is of great benefit to the physical body. It can also increase life span and strengthen Yang Qi.
And the white snake actually followed suit and breathed purple energy, imitating it in a good way.
One person and one snake, just like the hermit in the mountain who has no concern for the world, practicing quietly without any distracting thoughts. If this scene was seen by others, it would be another strange story.
An hour later, Li Daoxuan opened his eyes.
He looked at the white snake under the bluestone, with a strange color in his eyes.
He had noticed the white snake approaching last night, but he did not stop it and let it go, as compensation for accidentally injuring it.
But Li Daoxuan never expected that this white snake could breathe out the purple energy of morning glow?
It should be noted that ordinary monsters never have this ability. Even among the human race that is said to be the most suitable for cultivation, those who can absorb purple energy are only one in a hundred.
Li Daoxuan suddenly had an idea. If he passed on the "Purple Qi Yangyuan Gong" to it, would it be able to practice it?
And the secret skill of raising dragons that he acquired after killing Pan Dan some time ago seems to have come into use.
