Dedicate One’s Mind

Early the next morning, when Wu Yi was recuperating and meditating in his room, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. The person seemed to want to knock on the door, but he probably hesitated for a moment. In the end, he did not knock, but stood at the door.

If Wu Yi sensed it correctly, the people outside the door should be the disciples or warriors who were around Lin Qi yesterday. They all have spiritual energy flowing through them, and there are only a few other people in the governor's mansion who have cultivation level. Wu Yi has only seen one character like Aunt Qing so far.

Not sure what this group of people were doing here, Wu Yi did not open the door immediately and continued to practice for a while. When the tea moment passed, he saw that they were still standing aside. Wu Yi knew that it was Lin Qi who had something to do with him, so he opened the door. As expected, it was Lin Qi's disciple who came to the door.

Wu Yi pretended to have just finished his work and said to them: "Are you okay?"

A disciple who was not much older than Wu Yi said: "Master Mingjian, this disciple came here to invite the master to meet in the small courtyard on the instruction of the master." Seeing Wu Yi's attitude of just finishing his work, this disciple said, I couldn't help but feel glad that I didn't knock on the door rashly before. If I disturbed Wu Yi's practice and was scolded by Wu Yi, there would be no explanation.

Walking slightly in front of Wu Yi, this disciple looked at Wu Yi's youthful face and couldn't help feeling that at the same age, he has a different life. He must serve him obediently and not dare to slack off.

But if he knew that Wu Yi was an ordinary person two years ago, he didn't know what he would think at this time. In the final analysis, fate is destined by God, but fate is under his own control. Wu Yi's journey is definitely not Came along smoothly.

They walked for about a stick of incense. The reason why they walked for such a long time was because Wu Yi deliberately criticized Lin Qi's character on the way. These disciples were very happy to be able to talk to a foundation-building monk like Wu Yi. It was an honor to answer almost every question Wu Yi had. Although he could not get any real information from these people, Wu Yi mainly got what he wanted by observing words and emotions.

Combining these words and expressions, Wu Yi can roughly infer that Lin Qiping's words and deeds are the same as when he first appeared in the lobby last night. He is unsmiling and a stern Taoist. However, after Xiaoya made a shy expression last night, he He looks like an old naughty boy, and maybe his heart is not as good as his appearance.

When he was about to arrive at the location, Wu Yi noticed that a strong man behind him was missing. If Wu Yi hadn't observed carefully, he wouldn't have been able to find it. He should have left from the alley. As for what he was going to do, Wu Yi was clear in his mind. Go and report the news of Wu Yi's arrival, and then Lin Qi will come out to greet him first, which will show more importance.

Arriving at the place where Wu Yi had peeked last time with the help of audio-visual skills, the disciple who led the way said to Wu Yi: "Master, this is where it is."

Wu Yi knew it without him having to say it, not to mention that Lin Qi was already greeting him at the door and could be seen from a distance. Wu Yi stepped forward and took the lead in making a Taoist salute, saying: "My Taoist friend, why are you doing this, but you are hurting me?" ”

Lin Qi walked down the steps, walked through the lush forest and Xiuzhu, came to Wu Yi, made a gesture of invitation, and said: "My Taoist friend is talented and intelligent, no less than the children of the rich family in the sect. His achievements in the future will be extraordinary. Could it be that he looks down on me?" ? Please come in quickly."

Wu Yi declined briefly and entered the small courtyard where Lin Qixian lived. After all, it was a small courtyard in the governor's mansion. It was not as full of Taoist things as the Taoist temple, but it had many plants and made it feel like a mountain. Elegant taste.

The two parties separated the guests of honor. After sitting on the futon, they each exchanged a few words. Lin Qi glanced at Wu Yi and said straight to the point: "I wonder how much you know about the art of exorcising ghosts and subduing demons?"

Wu Yi knew that the topic was coming, and said: "Although I don't know much about this, I am raising a ghost." Wu Yi said and released the turtle, and after a few breaths, he took it back.

Because Xiao was seriously injured before and did not have Wu Yi's abnormal recovery ability, he still looks very weak and out of breath.

Lin Qi's expression was as usual when he saw Jin like this. Who knows if Wu Yi deliberately showed him his weakest ghost so that he could relax his vigilance. After being in the monastic world for so long, Lin Qi would never trust him. something shown by appearance.

"I wonder if you know the news about the traitors and evil heretics?" After hesitating for a while, Wu Yi asked the doubts in his heart, hoping to get more information.

Lin Qi let out a surprised sound, and said curiously: "Fellow Taoist doesn't know about this, then——"

Lin Qi's voice stopped abruptly, but Wu Yi knew what he wanted to ask. Wu Yi had no intention of hiding it from Lin Qi, and said frankly: "I was looking for the evil place in Nanling a few days ago, but unexpectedly... I encountered a very difficult ghost and almost lost my life. I fainted on the road and was rescued by this young lady. She is not familiar with traitors and evil heretics. "

Lin Qi didn't completely believe Wu Yi's words. He said oh, and then he seemed to have thought of something and said: "It's a coincidence that the evil heretic is also entrenched in a sinister place. I don't know that my friend accomplished his purpose last time. If not, we can destroy the caves of these evil demons and occupy the place of evil."

Lin Qi said this in an understatement, with a murderous intent, and did not take the evil heretics to heart at all. Wu Yi did not openly question it, and cooperated: "What the fellow Taoist said is true, and there is indeed such a place of evil."

Lin Qizhong replied: "Let me investigate, it should be true."

Upon investigation, Lin Qi had already broken into that group of people's lair. When Wu Yi heard this, he felt a stir in his heart, but it was quickly suppressed by Wu Yi.

"I don't know when you are going to go to this evil heretic cave next time. Please let me know then."

Lin Qi readily agreed, probably realizing that there were some contradictions in his words, so he added, "Although the evil heretic is not high in cultivation, his methods are weird, but fellow Taoists should be careful," and finally said angrily. : "If this were not the case, how could this generation be allowed to be so arrogant to this day?"

Afterwards, the two discussed some specific matters, and Lin Qi also mentioned a few words to Wu Yi about the cultivation methods of evil heretics, which he explained very carefully and specifically.

After the conversation was almost over, Wu Yi took his leave. Lin Qi left a few words of apology and allowed Wu Yi to leave.

On the way back, Wu Yi recalled Lin Qi's description of the evil heretics' cultivation method, and felt that these evil heretics should be monks practicing witchcraft.

Witchcraft is also broad and profound, with a long history. However, not to mention compared with Neidan Dao, even compared with several other major schools, its cultivation system is also complicated and confusing, and it retains many ancient and even older practices. The cultivation method is incompatible with the methods of today's era.

Although the country of Dayu uses Yiqimen as its state religion, it does not mean that there are no other sects in the country. It is just that it has become insignificant under the suppression of Yiqimen. It lives in remote and inaccessible places in the wilderness, like this group of practicing witchcraft in Lingnan County. This is the case for the monks of the sect.

In fact, the witchcraft had been spread in Baiyue, Lingnan, before Dayu Kingdom conquered this place, and there were many high-level practitioners and great masters among them. However, they were suppressed during the expansion of Yiqi Sect, and most of the great masters were killed, and the power Big reduction.

From Lin Qi's words, Wu Yi learned that for some unknown reason, Yiqimen did not choose to kill them all in the end, but instead signed a legal contract with the witchcraft monks, agreeing that as long as they can maintain their duties, they will continue to pass on the inheritance.

Although the reason is not very clear, Wu Yi guessed that it was the master of a sect who took retreat in Lingnan County. It was difficult for the witchcraft monks to find disciples who would pass on the inheritance, so they could only choose some Yue people scattered in the mountains. The descendants of the clan are passed down from generation to generation, and their influence will only be eroded little by little by one clan. This not only prevents the witchcraft monk from having to fight against the odds and cause serious damage to himself, but also achieves his goal.

Regarding the reason for coming here, Lin Qi revealed the real reason, but it was not the invitation from the county governor that Wu Yi had in mind. The monk pursued the great road, and the county guard was a mortal. How could he be moved? It turned out that the inner sect was on a mission. , destroy the witchcraft monks who cause trouble here, and you will be rewarded generously.

Lin Qi also gave a task list and asked Wu Yi to carve his own breath into it. If the task is completed, Wu Yi will also be able to get a reward.

Wu Yi thought for a while. After all, there is a place of evil inside, which involves the way to Jin's body. It needs to be explored. Lin Qidian said that he knew where the place was. If Wu Yi didn't agree, he might not know it in the end. Promise to let Wu Yi know the location.

Wu Yi did not refuse in the end, and engraved his aura on the list. Wu Yi has now been officially dragged into the water. If it fails by then, the inner sect will be held accountable.

The most critical question now is whether these witch cultivators did what they did on their own, or whether they were under the instigation of powerful shaman cultivators who wanted to test the attitude of Yiqimen and expand their sphere of influence. If it is the later Or, the water inside is not that deep.

However, this core issue was not specified in the list, and Lin Qi did not know it, which gave Wu Yi a headache.

Wu Yi was thinking about this all the way, but he still didn't think of a solution until he returned to his residence. After all, his status was too low. Perhaps the inner master knew all about this and sent out a task list. Wen also wanted to test, but Wu Yi turned his eyes dark and became a pawn in the confrontation between the two.

He and Lin Qi agreed to go together to destroy the enemy's nest in five days. This time was set by Wu Yi. Wu Yi estimated that he would be able to completely restore the broken meridians in his body at about this time, otherwise it would greatly hinder his battle. At the same time, we must visualize some of the evil ghosts in the world of stone tablets, and try our best to keep the Nine Ghost Locking Palace Formation running.

When Wu Yi was about to return to his room, he found several people standing at the door, including Xiaoya and several maids.

Seeing Wu Yi coming back, Xiaoya came up to him and said, "Dad didn't think it was appropriate to arrange you here, so he asked me to prepare a new room for you." At this time, Xiaoya couldn't tell that Xunran was about to cry last night. She looked elegant and elegant, as if she had forgotten what happened last night.

As soon as Wu Yi's words of rejection came to his lips, he saw Xiaoya puffing up her cheeks and looking directly at him, as if she was saying that if he dared to refuse, she would pounce on him and bite him. Wu Yi swallowed his words and said calmly: " Okay, thank you for your hard work, girl.”

Xiaoya showed a smile and took Wu Yi to the new room prepared for Wu Yi. In fact, it can't be said to be a room because it has become a small courtyard. It may not be as quiet as Lin Qi's residence, but it is better than Wu Yi's. The place where Yi lived before was much better.

After taking Wu Yi to the location, Xiaoya was ready to leave. Looking at Xiaoya's back, Wu Yi said something out of nowhere, "Is your mother being tricked by evil heretics using sorcery and is bedridden?"

When Xiaoya heard this, she turned around in disbelief and said, "What? You have a way."

Wu Yi looked at her confused eyes, smiled brightly, and said: "If you don't give it a try, how will you know if there is a way?"

Xiaoya stopped the tears that were about to fall, smiled, and forgot to say anything for a moment.

Wu Yi looked at her happy look and felt that she was the most real herself at this moment, a weak woman who had shed all her burdens. Her young shoulders carried too much.

Wu Yi did this not to compete with the beauty, but out of his own heart. Xiaoya saved his life, and he wanted to repay the favor, but when he engraved his own aura on the task list, it was not pure. To repay the favor, I need to find another way. It just so happens that Xiaoya's mother is ill in bed, which is an excellent opportunity.
