The moon and stars are sparse, in the courtyard on the mountain.
"Twenty-two, twenty-three...twenty-seven, twenty-eight..."
Jiang Changsheng sat on the trunk of the Earth Spirit Tree, looking at the night view of the capital, counting in his mouth.
Today's curfew in the capital is extremely late, the lights are still brightly lit, and Jiang Changsheng is counting the number of Tongtian masters under the mountain.
He was counting the inns near Longqishan. The capital was so big and there were countless inns, but so many experts gathered in the neighborhood near Longqishan must have some agenda.
"Three divine hearts, thirty-six heaven-reaching ones, the formation is quite large. It would not have been seen thirty years ago."
Jiang Changsheng murmured to himself, his eyes full of expectation.
It’s been a long time since I’ve received a survival reward, it’s time!
This is the reason why he gave the inheritance of Mahayana Dragon Tower to Jiang Ziyu. On the one hand, it is to strengthen the scenery, and on the other hand, it is to raise leeks.
People who practice martial arts are competitive and competitive. As time goes by, some people will naturally forget about Jiang Changsheng's strength, or may not believe him, and then come to deliver food.
Jiang Changsheng waited for a while, and then practiced under the moonlight. The luster of Chen Tiangong's feather robe faded, and he completely blended into the darkness, obscured by the leaves.
Half an hour later, the candlelight in Longqi Temple gradually extinguished, and darkness enveloped the entire Longqi Temple.
A figure galloped through the woods, its footsteps jumping over rocks, tree trunks, and pavilion tops, like a dragonfly touching water, without making any sound.
He jumped up and leaped into the air. Under the moonlight, he saw a man in black clothes. Only his eyes and nose were exposed. His eyes were full of excitement.
"Today, if I steal the legendary Heaven and Earth Scripture, I will definitely achieve great success in the world. What kind of holy land is like a mere emptiness in front of me!"
The man in black thought excitedly. He jumped over the mountain gate and moved quickly. The disciples practicing in their respective courtyards along the way did not notice him.
In the past few days, he had figured out the location of Longqi Temple through his identity as a pilgrim. Although he had not seen the Immortal Immortal, it was obvious that the address of the Immortal Immortal must be hidden in those places where he was not allowed to go.
Go through them one by one!
However, he was extremely lucky and directly touched Jiang Changsheng's courtyard.
Bai Qi, who was sleeping under the tree, opened his eyes. The man in black was so shocked that he immediately shrank his head and hid behind the courtyard wall. He held his breath and concentrated, and activated his true energy according to the technique, turning his own breath into nothingness.
Bai Qi murmured: "Strange...an illusion..."
It glanced at Jiang Changsheng on the tree and saw that he was still there, so it felt relieved. If the sky fell, there would still be a Taoist presence. What was it afraid of?
It lowered its head and continued to sleep, having a sweet dream of being a thousand-year-old monster that was rampant in the world. In the dream, it had transformed into a male slave, and the Immortal Master was working as a male slave for it, rubbing its shoulders and legs, making it happy.
The man in black waited patiently for half an hour before he looked over and saw that the white wolf had fallen asleep. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"As expected of a demon, he actually raised a demon wolf. It seems that the rumors are true. The Baiqi spirit wolf has such a keen sense of smell. Where is the white dragon python that is said to be able to transform into a dragon?"
The man in black was secretly frightened. When he looked up, his pupils tightened.
He saw the white dragon, entrenched on the top of the mountain. The terrifying snake body made him frightened. He had never seen such a huge snake, it was almost half a foot thick!
Damn it, this beast can't really turn into a dragon, right?
The man in black cursed secretly. He tensed his mind and sneaked into the earth spirit tree along the courtyard wall. He climbed along the trunk and looked at several houses in the yard. One of the houses had candlelight, and inside there were flowers, swords, and hearts. While Jiang Xiu was waiting, Hua Jianxin was telling stories in a low voice to coax Jiang Xiu to sleep.
"How come there is a mother and son, and the evil spirit actually raises a woman? Isn't this a violation of the precepts for a Taoist priest? The evil spirit is so presumptuous, I'm really... envious."
The man in black sighed in his heart. He climbed forward along the tree trunk, and suddenly a hand pressed his head. He was so frightened that his whole body tensed up, sweating profusely, and he did not dare to move.
He has been walking around the world for so many years and has never touched anything. He has even been to a tomb and encountered a jumping corpse. His experience and intuition told him that there was definitely a hand pressing his head.
Living person?
dead?
If it was a living person, why didn't it continue to move?
Why are the words of a dead person hung on a tree?
At this moment, the man in black thought a lot. He raised his head cautiously, and his eyes met a handsome and extraordinary face with a smile. Under the dim leaves, he was so frightened that he almost screamed, but Jiang Changsheng directly tapped the acupuncture point, sealing it. Hold his voice.
The man in black's eyes widened with fear.
Jiang Changsheng carried him and dropped him to the ground, waking Bai Qi up. When Bai Qi saw the person in his hand, his eyes widened and he shouted: "There really is..."
Before it finished speaking, it saw Jiang Changsheng making a silencing gesture with one hand and immediately shut up.
I almost forgot, don't wake up the little bully, lest you have to clamor to ride him again.
Jiang Changsheng carried the man in black out of the yard. Bai Qi was curious and quickly followed.
They came to the cliff and Jiang Changsheng untied the man in black's acupuncture points.
The man in black jumped directly to the bottom of the cliff, and said with a sarcastic smile: "Hahaha, you devil, you can't believe that I am unique in the world of martial arts, and I am on a cliff thousands of feet long, and I have come and gone..."
Before he finished laughing, he was shocked to find that his body was rising. Jiang Changsheng used his spiritual power to suck him through the air, pulling him to the cliff and landing in front of Jiang Changsheng.
Bai Qi was lying on the ground, his eyes full of teasing.
The man in black was embarrassed, but mostly fearful and desperate.
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said: "Send your name, why did you sneak into Longqi Temple?"
This person has been to Longqi Monastery several times, and his skills at the Tongtian realm are still very conspicuous among the pilgrims. Of course, only Jiang Changsheng can see clearly, and ordinary people cannot see through his skills at all.
If the man in black hadn't injured the disciple, he would be a corpse now.
The man in black took a deep breath and said: "People in the world call me the God of Thieves. I want to try the foundation of the holy land of martial arts and see if I can steal the skills of my predecessors..."
Apart from leniency for confessing, he felt that any other reason would lead to death. After all, it was taboo to break into someone else's property late at night.
Jiang Changsheng did not kill him, which gave him a glimmer of hope.
Jiang Changsheng asked: "Don't you have a name?"
The man in black said awkwardly: "I have been an orphan since I was a child. My master is a crazy master and named me Zasui... Ahem, senior, I really have no evil intentions. I just want to make a name for myself in our line of work. Yes, the more powerful the things we steal and the higher the status of the person we steal from, the greater our reputation will be, and the more powerful wealthy owners will come to us..."
He plopped down, knelt in front of Jiang Changsheng, and kowtowed desperately.
"Senior, please spare my life. I am willing to let the world know that I, the God of Thieves, will never enter the Longqi Temple again..."
Bai Qi was happy and said with a smile: "Zha Sui, your master is very talented."
The Thief God felt humiliated, but did not dare to talk back.
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, "Have you heard of Xu Tianji?"
The Thief God raised his head and said: "I've heard that he is one of the ten great masters in the world and also the martial arts person with the highest military rank."
"When Xu Tianji came to cause trouble, he survived because he had been sweeping the floor for Long Qiguan for ten years. Would you choose to die or sweep the floor for ten years?"
"ten years?"
The God of Thieves was so scared that he was trembling all over. How many decades are there in his life?
Jiang Changsheng inserted the seal of life and death into his body. The Thief God's whole body was agitated and extremely nervous. He could feel the terrifying power wandering around in his body.
"This is the seal of life and death. No matter how far you run away, you will die as soon as I use my power. Just guard the mountain honestly. You are still young. Xu Tianji was only forty when he came down from the mountain. You still made great achievements."
Jiang Changsheng patted the Thief God on the face, laughed softly, and left after laughing.
The God of Thieves pressed his forehead to the ground, weeping tears of humiliation and despair.
Bai Qi smiled and said: "Little brother, bear with me, ten years goes by very quickly. I had the same experience as you, but now ten years have passed, and I still can't bear to go down the mountain."
It turned around and followed Jiang Changsheng's footsteps.
The God of Thieves was trembling all over, feeling that life was dim.
…
In the early morning, there was an extra person sweeping the floor in front of Longqiguan Mountain. It was the God of Thieves. Wangchen gave him a set of Taoist robes. Now he looked like a disciple of Longqiguan. He had a handsome face and was very young. He looked like he was only twenty years old. Get ahead.
The Thief God looked numb and felt extremely painful.
A young disciple came over and asked, "Senior brother, I'm unfamiliar with you. Which college is he from?"
The Thief God said angrily: "Get out of here."
"Why are you swearing?"
"What's wrong with scolding you?"
"You... are bullying others, I will ask Uncle Huang to seek justice!"
Uncle Huang?
Could it be the famous Arakawa?
The Thief God quickly stopped him and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Junior Brother, Senior Brother, I'm out of temper. How about I take you down the mountain to eat roast chicken tonight?"
The young disciple's eyes widened and he said, "Okay!"
The Thief God was surprised and said: "You just agreed like this? Can Long Qiguan eat meat?"
"Of course we can. We are just practicing Taoism, not becoming monks. Different from traditional Taoism, we can also marry and have children, but that must be done after we become a monk." The young disciple finally understood. It turned out that he was not a senior brother, but a junior brother.
The God of Thieves became interested and started chatting with him. The two of them swept the floor and chatted, and the disciple's attitude became higher and higher.
The sun gradually rises in the east, and pilgrims begin to ascend the mountain.
Near noon, a group of martial arts people went up the mountain. When one of the men in blue saw the God of Thieves, his eyes widened and he quickly walked up to him and asked in a low voice: "Brother, why are you sweeping... Is this... Step on..."
The God of Thieves glared at him and whispered: "Shut up and get down the mountain quickly. Don't say you have seen me."
The man in blue was confused and asked quietly: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm in trouble. I have to work as a sweeping Taoist priest for Long Qiguan for ten years. Just tell the outside world that I will retire for ten years. I will find you after ten years. Let's do something big. Go..."
The Thief God said seriously, and then cast a look at the palace.
The man in blue was shocked and did not dare to think too much. He was so frightened that he quickly turned around and went down the mountain, fleeing from here, for fear that he would be left behind and end up like the God of Thieves.
The Thief God looked at his back and sighed.
Lu Chengfeng went up the mountain along the steps of the mountain path. When he saw the man in blue who was bragging in the inn yesterday walking down the mountain in fear, he secretly wondered, but didn't think much about it and continued to walk up the mountain.
He passed by the God of Thieves, bought incense, and went straight into the temple.
The God of Thieves glanced back at Lu Chengfeng and said to himself: "What a profound skill, tsk tsk, I hope you will cause some trouble, so that I can feel balanced."
He sighed, regretting that he should have come to Longqi Temple.
