The tip of the sword was against Chen Luo's throat, and Chen Luo could feel the cold air coming from the tip of the sword.
At this time, Chen Ping, who had been knocked to the ground by the previous attack, rolled towards Cai Tongchen, shouting: "Sir, that is really my young master..." Two servants rushed out of the back office and pushed Chen Ping away. Hold on tight.
Chen Luo didn't dare to move at this time. He just looked at Cai Tongchen in front of him. A clear light flashed in Cai Tongchen's eyes, with a look of doubt on his face: "Huh? There is nothing strange about his soul?"
As he spoke, Cai Tongchen's eyes flashed clear again, several times brighter than before, but the look of doubt on his face became even stronger: "How is that possible? Are you really Chen Luo?"
Feeling the tip of the sword on his throat retreat slightly, Chen Luo nodded: "Uncle Cai, it's really me."
Cai Tongchen slowly retracted his sword, but the green light in his eyes remained fixed on Chen Luo. This Cai Tongchen is a Confucian student. His eyes have been refined with awe-inspiring righteousness, and he can reach the state of "clearly distinguishing right from wrong." At this time, he looked at Chen Luo, but he did not find any discrepancy between his soul and body.
After a long minute, Cai Tongchen finally dissipated the green light in his eyes, showed a smile, and said apologetically: "I was reckless, my dear nephew, don't blame me."
"My uncle's words are serious. My nephew will bear in mind his love for me." Chen Luo quickly returned the greeting. In this fairy world, it is not uncommon for someone to seize a body and possess him. It is normal for others to be wary of him like this.
only--
Things like soul penetration are still beyond the understanding of this world.
"The good nephew has come back to life. He must have had some adventures, right?" After some troubles, Chen Luo sat in the middle hall of the back office, and Cai Tongchen continued to inquire without leaving any trace.
"Before, my nephew did leave his body..." Chen Luo, who had been prepared on the way here, quickly "narrated" the story he had just made up -
"I seemed to have entered a peach blossom forest. In the peach blossom forest, there was an old man with white hair and childish face. He said to me, why did you come here now when you haven't arrived here yet? Then he wanted to drink with me. I don't know why, every time After a sip of wine, my mind became clearer. When the whole bottle of wine was finished, he said it was time to leave, and just waved his sleeves, and when I opened my eyes again, I woke up..."
In fact, Chen Luo originally wanted to make up a story to match the immortal poems such as "White Cloud Capital in the Sky, Twelve Cities on the Fifth Floor" and "Holding White Irises, Sweeping the Clouds in the Southern Mountains at Night" to enhance his "resurrection from the dead" style, but When he was recalling carefully on the carriage before, he discovered a fact that frightened him——
In this world, Buddhism and Taoism are different from the two religions of Buddhism and Taoism in the previous life. Many legends and legends related to Buddhism and Taoism have never appeared. For example, the previous "Zhong Kui" does not have such a figure in the Taoism of this world. . But Confucianism is different!
There is Confucius, there is Mencius, there is Xunzi, there is Dong Zhongshu, there is Yang Xiong... but all the great Confucians whose names Chen Luo can remember have a place in this world. Even the famous Hengqu Four Sentences have the same style in this world and are a must-read for Confucian scholars.
Well, a powerful tool for showing off-1-1-1-1...
This is not devastating. What really makes Chen Luo collapse is that the Tang poetry and Song lyrics he has memorized have already appeared in this world. Although some words and authors bear the imprint of this world, basically the artistic conception and usage The words and sentences are all similar.
A powerful tool for showing off-10-10-10-10……
However, after repeated memory confirmation, the poems after the Tang and Song Dynasties seemed to have disappeared. This heaven seems to have left a way for Chen Luo to survive, but this road is not very easy...
So he thought hard and finally made up the disguise of "Peach Blossom Fairy".
"My nephew doesn't know who the old man is. He just vaguely remembers that the old man recited a few lines of poetry when he was drunk -"
"In Peach Blossom Temple in Taohuawu, there is a Peach Blossom Fairy in Peach Blossom Temple. The Peach Blossom Fairy grows peach trees and picks peach blossoms in exchange for wine money!"
"Then I fell into a white space, and as soon as I opened my eyes, I returned to this world."
Cai Tongchen nodded slightly. If he had doubts about Chen Luo before, now he no longer had any doubts after listening to these four lines of poetry. The meaning of these four lines of poetry is not exhausted, and there must be a sequel, but these four lines alone show the extraordinary quality, carefree and unrestrained attitude. Not to mention Chen Luo, who has no talent for reading, even if Chen Luo's father is alive, it is difficult to say that he wrote If such a poem was not taught by an expert, where did it come from?
"What a peach blossom fairy!" Cai Tongchen said with a smile, "Just these four peach blossom poems are enough to make it clear!"
Looking at Cai Tongchen, who was getting emotional, Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief. This Cai Tongchen should be the last hurdle of his "resurrection from the dead". Now he has passed it. He silently thanked Tang Bohu of the Ming Dynasty in his heart, and then changed the topic. Get down to business.
"Uncle, my visit this time is related to the murder case in my Chen family. The person who killed my Chen family is indeed evil, but it is not an ordinary evil ghost, but a ghost. I guess the tiger demon behind this ghost has two years of history. It is related to a tiger beast that was rounded up by my Chen family, and it may be hiding in Xixiu Mountain."
"The common people sincerely request you to activate the official seal to cover Xixiu Mountain and locate the tiger demon. Send another group of government officials to follow me to Xixiu Mountain to eliminate the demon..."
When it came to business, Chen Luo's title also changed. Cai Tongchen's face suddenly became serious and he frowned slightly: "Do you have conclusive evidence that the tiger demon is in Xixiu Mountain? If not, I can't easily use my luck to investigate..."
Chen Luo quickly took out a wad of silver notes from his arms, offered it with both hands, and said: "Here are two thousand taels of silver notes. I, the Chen Mansion, are grateful to my hometown and would like to contribute to Wan'an. Please accept them... "
Cai Tongchen glanced at the banknote in Chen Luo's hand, thought for a moment, and said, "It's not enough to cover a mountain!"
Chen Luo's heart sank slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "There is another thousand taels, which will be delivered later!"
Cai Tongchen nodded and moved his lips slightly, as if transmitting a message. After a moment, Mr. Li, who looked kind-hearted, walked out of the back room with a tray with pens and ink on it, and smiled at Chen Luo. call.
Cai Tongchen didn't say much. He took the tray and wrote a document on it. He took out his personal seal, stamped it, handed it to Master Li, and said: "That demon is already at the level of an evil spirit. The tiger demon must be pure at least." In the Blood Realm, we will not assign government officials. Lao Li, please do your best and go to Xixiu Mountain with Chen Luo. If the tiger demon is really hiding in the mountains, kill him on the spot!"
Master Li still smiled and nodded: "It's just a trivial matter, I dare not say it's hard work." Then he looked at Chen Luo: "Master Chen, how about I go with you?"
Chen Luo quickly stood up and bowed: "Thank you, Master Li!"
…
The moon and stars are sparse.
Chen Ping drove Cai Tongchen's carriage towards Xixiu Mountain at high speed. On the quiet street, the squeaking sound of the wheels turning was extremely obvious.
In the carriage, Master Li was holding Cai Tongchen's county magistrate's seal in both hands, still smiling. Chen Luo looked a little embarrassed, and thinking of Chen Xuan's instructions, he said: "Master Li, I have recently collected some antiques from the previous dynasty at home. My sister said that Master has an unparalleled discernment, so I will ask Master to help me taste something some other day..."
Hearing Chen Luo's words, Master Li's smile became even stronger and he said: "Miss Chen is so polite, you have no obligation to refuse, you have no obligation to refuse..."
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting heated, Chen Luo quickly continued to ask: "I forgive my nephew for his limited knowledge. Uncle Cai said before that the tiger demon is at a pure blood level and what realm it is. Please ask Master Li to clarify his doubts."
Hearing this, Master Li nodded slightly and said: "Master Chen has lived in the hinterland of the human race for a long time, so it is normal for him not to know about the realm of the demon race. We still have some time to get to Xixiu Mountain, so I'll ask you to tell me about it."
"The cultivation of the demon race is different from that of our human race. They practice the way of blood, and they seek to return to their ancestors by blood."
"After the demon clan becomes wise, the first three realms are all related to blood."
"The first realm is the pure blood realm. The monsters in this realm continue to shed the impurities in their blood. The more clean it is, the higher the limit will be in the future. In the later stages of cultivation, they can transform into human forms, but some monsters' bodies cannot be concealed. For example, the tail, ears, limbs, etc., ordinary people can tell at a glance that it is a demon clan."
"The second realm is the pure blood realm, where the bloodline is almost pure and flawless. The demon clan at this time can be considered a real demon clan, because they can awaken the 'innate magic' at this time."
"For example, the tiger demon that harmed your Chen family. Even if ordinary tigers raise ghosts, they are the wandering spirit level among ghosts, which is the lowest level. But letting the ghosts advance to the level of evil ghosts that can kill people shows that That tiger demon has awakened the magic of 'soul manipulation'."
"The third realm is called the Blood Refining Realm. At this time, as the bloodline of the demon clan becomes further refined, it can further improve the demonic arts and turn them into magical powers. Every kind of demonic arts turned into magical powers will appear on the demon clan itself. A peculiar blood pattern, so this magical power is also called the blood pattern magical power."
Speaking of this, Master Li's smiling face showed a trace of disdain: "In the final analysis, the demon clan is a group of guys who rely on the ancestors' wealth. How can they be compared to our human clan, which continues the past and strives for the first, and even nobles from poor families come out... …”
Chen Luo was about to chime in when he suddenly heard Chen Ping knocking on the carriage outside the car and saying, "Master Li, Xixiu Mountain has arrived..."
