Three of the monsters are brothers, all wild boars. Although the three brothers have different strengths and weaknesses, they are probably at the level of [True Demon].
The remaining two demons, one is a deer in the late stage of [Little Demon], and the other is a snake demon in the late stage of [True Demon] - it is also the strongest among all Niu Deheng's friends in Jinyun Mountain. He is probably about the same age as that old Qing Dynasty ghost "Li Xiucai".
It has to be said that Niu Deheng has a wide range of friends.
Because these "Three Ghosts and Five Demons" were the ones he said he could definitely trust. As for the ones he was not so familiar with and didn't have close friendships with, there were probably quite a few of them.
Knowing the specific situation of friends like Niu Deheng, I prepared corresponding "meeting gifts".
What was prepared for that old ghost Li Xiucai was the spirit version of the [Life-Extension Pill]. As the name suggests, this Life-Extension Pill was not meant for living people, but for spirits!
If ghosts do not enter the underworld and reincarnate, their spiritual bodies still have a "life span". In other words, ghosts do not naturally exist forever.
Otherwise, it would be great!
When a person becomes a ghost, he actually becomes another similar creature, which naturally has a lifespan. Of course, the lifespan of "ghosts" is much longer than that of living people.
The average wandering soul probably has a lifespan of less than a hundred years. If one can further cultivate to the [Fierce Ghost] realm, one can have a lifespan of close to two hundred years. If you further advance to the realm of [Fierce Ghost], your lifespan can be further extended...
If the ghost's cultivation level cannot be improved and it cannot go to the underworld at this time, the soul can only slowly decay and eventually die between heaven and earth.
So naturally among the alchemy monks, some of them came up with something like the spiritual version of the [Life Extension Pill], which can give the ghost's spiritual body a longer period of time when the realm is not enough...
Refining this kind of elixir is actually much simpler than using the [Life Extension Pill] for living people. It is a kind of cultivation material that is very useful but not particularly precious. It is very suitable as a favor gift for the "old ghost" who is not good at cultivation as a first meeting!
As for the female ghost and the child ghost, they obviously wanted to work harder on their cultivation path, so I prepared a few sticks of [Soul-Reinforcing Incense] of acceptable quality as a meeting gift for them.
The three wild boar brother demons have just stepped into the realm of [true demon] and need to condense their demonic energy and consolidate their realm. At this time, air-dried chewable tablets made from a hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum root are very useful.
The deer demon and the snake demon are both in the late stages of their respective realms. If they want to reach the realm... a bag of [Ling Gathering Flower Tea] is the best thing.
I picked out the appropriate meeting gifts and told Niu Deheng that I could go find them.
"Hey, little brother Wu, just sit here and rest peacefully with my brother. I'll call them all to the temple. I'm very fast!"
As Niu Deheng spoke, his chubby body gradually became transparent, and then turned into a swirling wind and flew out...
Originally, Madoka wanted to follow, but I quickly stopped her.
Because who knows what unreliable things this silly fat bird will do?
I was even afraid that it would see the cauliflower snake demon and think it looked delicious, so that’s what it would do... I really didn’t dare to think about it any more!
"Let me out, Mr. Wu, you are illegally imprisoning a national first-level protected wild animal, do you know that? You're done, Mr. Wu, you're going to have to wait for the jail sentence."
Madoka was cursing in my arms, but she couldn't break away from my big hands that were rubbing her belly.
Although, the sea green is indeed a national first-level protected wild animal...
…
About half an hour later, a voice came faintly in the wind outside the Taoist temple door.
"Your brother is here!"
Then the sinister wind that swirled into the courtyard door turned into a fat ghost with a smile on its face. It was Niu Deheng. Behind him, followed a group of cultivating beings, including ghosts and demons.
They are the "Three Ghosts and Five Demons" he has the best relationship with.
I took a casual look and found that the old ghost "Li Xiucai" indeed looked like an old scholar, the female ghosts were generally neither ugly nor beautiful, and the strongest child ghost looked young and mature.
The three wild boar demon brothers are quite large, each one is estimated to weigh three to four hundred kilograms, which is much larger than the common wild boar species in the mountains and forests of the southwest! It almost reaches the level of the Ussuri wild boar, the largest wild boar species.
Moreover, it is covered in tendon meat, extremely strong, and has two long sharp fangs. I met an ordinary tiger and killed him in minutes! If you hit him casually, you will be disemboweled.
Of course, this comparison is unfair. After all, the three wild boar brothers are all [true monsters]! They are spiritual spiritual beings, not ignorant beasts in the mountains.
As for the little deer demon, he looks cute and a bit silly. It's somewhat similar to the photos of Northeastern "silly roe deer" I've seen online.
The snake demon may be a venomous snake, so its size is not big, but its body is colorful, and it is very poisonous at first glance! This kind of cultivation to become a demon has great advantages in the early stage...
When I was looking at the three ghosts and five demons, they were also looking at me. There seemed to be a faint fear in his eyes.
I also understand that for them, if I want to be disadvantageous to them with my current strength, I will probably be able to surrender in an instant, and none of them will be able to escape!
He probably agreed to come because he had a close personal relationship with Niu Deheng.
I immediately stood up, walked forward with a gentle smile, and at the same time shook my hands with Taoist etiquette.
"Oh, I have long heard that Brother Deheng said that he has some close friends in Jinyun Mountain. They are all elves in the mountains. They are sentient beings who rely on the spirit of Jinyun Mountain's fairy spirits to open up their spiritual wisdom and embark on the path of spiritual practice. When we meet today, As expected, everyone is Zhong Lingyuxiu. Please sit down, please sit down!"
If we talk about ordinary Taoist monks, they will definitely not be as polite as me. They will probably be polite because of their status and cultivation level. But anyway, I am not a decent person from a well-known family, and I am also thick-skinned...
There is a saying in martial arts movies: Jianghu is not just about fighting and killing, but also about human relationships.
The same goes for the Xuanmen Jianghu and the supernatural world.
The three ghosts and five demons probably didn't expect that I looked so easy to talk to and polite. They were startled at first, and then the guard in their eyes became obviously much lighter. There is a feeling of relaxing.
The little deer demon flashed its big bright eyes, and its voice sounded in our minds.
"Fat Niu Niu, you didn't lie to us. This powerful little Taoist priest is indeed very gentle, and he doesn't look down on us."
She's still a girl?
"Yes, I, She Yun, have met Daozhang Wu!"
The snake demon also spoke, and his voice was rough and rough, with the temperament of a middle-aged rough man.
Moreover, it does have a high level of cultivation, so it has high spiritual intelligence, and it knows how to give itself a name. I guess "She" is the same as "Snake". When I was practicing in Jinyun Mountain, I just had the word "Yun" in my name.
I couldn't help but think of She Hong, a colleague from Southwest Xiuxing Company. His family's dharma lineage is to imitate various spells of snake monsters. I didn't even know him at the beginning...
The three wild boar demons and three ghosts also greeted me respectively. After visiting the main building of the Taoist temple, Hu Xiaoyue also came to the yard and met them.
As for Niu Bi, I already knew them all...
Xiao Yuan, a silly fat bird, also knew that the matter was important, so she restrained herself a little and didn't act too cowardly to scare others.
After exchanging polite words, the atmosphere relaxed.
I waved my hand, and the various training materials I had just selected appeared on the ground in front of me, and I said with a smile.
"When we meet for the first time, a small gift is not a sign of respect. Please don't refuse!"
As he said this, he introduced the gifts one by one, making the three ghosts and five demons extremely excited. He seemed to want to refuse, but in the end he couldn't help but accept it.
The three wild boar demons are the most honest, and the eldest, the biggest, fattest and strongest among them said in a loud voice.
"Brother Wu is really the best human monk we have ever seen! Whatever you ask me, old pig, I will do it for you even if I go through fire and water."
The "wild ghosts" and "wild monsters" who can cultivate to this point on their own are actually not stupid. They all know that Niu Deheng must have something to tell them to do when he called them over to meet me.
I laughed.
"What Brother Dazhu said is serious. We are just chatting casually, nothing else. You have lived in Jinyun Mountain for such a long time, and you are also familiar with wandering around. Have you heard of... Jinyun Mountain before? Is there a monk named Wuyou Taoist?"
I looked at the three ghosts and five demons in front of me.
The little deer demon, the three wild boar demons, and the female ghost all looked confused, while the snake demon, the old ghost Li Xiucai, and the child ghost all showed thoughtful expressions.
Obviously, the three of them at least knew the name [Wuyou Taoist]!
