Great Sui Guoshi

The application time is two quarters.

In the afternoon, the sun poured down and shone through the gaps in the trees. The breeze in the mountains blew by, and the spots of light swayed gently on the ground, with the rustling of branches and leaves.

In the grotto, there was a rustling sound, and after a while, the clothes and pants were folded and a piece of paper was placed on it.

"Master, the words written on that piece of paper... are my gift to you."

Wow... The sound of water splashed, Lu Liangsheng stepped into the big cauldron, the water temperature was not too hot, and the steaming water almost covered his chest. Sitting in the water, he looked at the old man with his back on the other side, While fishing for something floating on the water, it looks like a fungus common in mountains.

The steam was steaming, and in the dimness, the gray robe turned around, the old man had a smile on his face, and something in his hand.

"Liangsheng has a heart."

Walking over slowly, he threw a few hexagonal leaves into the cauldron, followed by an unknown rhizome. When a small piece of water splashed on the boy's chest, Lu Liangsheng asked in a low voice, "Master, what are these?"

"Of course it's a good thing. It's specially prepared for today by the teacher... This is a mountain spirit... used to repair injuries and enhance cultivation. It will melt when it meets water, adding to the taste."

The old man rolled up his cuffs, and his tone was a little more excited than usual. He shook the root of a plant that was similar in shape to ginseng in his hand, and then threw it into the water.

"This is Yumu...it can make the meat...body more resilient."

Then, he took out the bloody thing again, "Don't look at this bloody meat, in fact, it is meat, the essence of sunflower in the mountain, this thing is hard to find, luckily let me come across it."

One by one, things were put into the tripod.

Lu Liangsheng frowned slightly, stretched it out again, and said with a smile: "Master, no matter how you look at it, you look like you want to cook bone soup (an ancient name for hot pot)"

"hey-hey….."

In the flames, the old man looked at him flickeringly for a while, grinned twice, and turned around: "Liangsheng, I'm telling you the truth..."

Reaching out for the white paper on the top of the underwear, he probably wanted to see what gift this disciple gave: "... I was attacked by someone as a teacher, and I was injured. I need nourishment, and I accept you as a disciple. for……"

The paper was unfolded in the hands of the old man, and the words behind the word "only for" came to an abrupt end, his eyes widened suddenly, staring at the moment when the two lines of handwriting were written, the words were juxtaposed, and a faint golden light shot out, he opened his mouth and squeezed out a sound. : "The other mother's..."

Over there, Lu Liangsheng, who was still waiting for Master to finish speaking, turned his head and said, "Master, just for what?" The next moment, a white light suddenly appeared, covering the old man who was standing there, and then everything was white. One piece, full of vision.

Slowly, the white light gradually faded, the young man hurriedly got out of the tripod, and stood barefoot on the ground. In an instant, a group of lavender mist exploded suddenly, and the whole cave was filled with purple air and surged.

"cough….."

Lu Liangsheng covered his nose, surrounded by pungent smells, waved the purple smoke away with his other hand, took two steps carefully, and shouted loudly: "Master!"

The voice echoed in the cave, but no one responded.

Stepping on the wet ground, Lu Liangsheng groped around with his hands, and his naked body moved accordingly. When he stepped on the gray robe on the ground, he panicked for no reason, not knowing what happened.

"Master—" shouted again.

"Stop calling!"

When Lu Liangsheng yelled this sentence, the old man's words echoed in the grotto at the same time, his tone seemed to contain anger.

Hearing the familiar voice, the young man breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly took half a step forward, and looked around: "Master, where are you?"

"Under you!"

"what?"

The purple mist dissipated, revealing the swaying oil lamp on the low table. In the dim and warm yellow light, Lu Liangsheng quickly lowered his head, and the corners of his eyebrows twitched.

"It's a huge pile."

"That's yours, I'm behind you!"

The boy quickly turned his head and scanned around: "Master, I didn't see you."

"Keep your head down!"

Lu Liangsheng lowered his gaze, and saw a huge toad staring at its big, oily eyes with red dots. Its back was full of lumps with seven stars, revealing a pitch-black luster. His body was straightened, and standing there, he was not as high as the boy's knees.

One person and one toad stared at each other for a long time.

After a while, the corners of Lu Liangsheng's mouth twitched, and hesitantly said, "Master...father?"

"Precisely as a teacher!"

The toad rolled its eyes, with its forelimbs on its back, its bulging belly sticking out, and its two frog webs slapped on the ground, with a serious tone: "What expression do you have, didn't you say it before you became a teacher? Conspiracy, the opponent's spell in the body, now seriously injured, unable to resist, was turned into this by that spell... croak."

"Master...you...haha!" Lu Liangsheng suddenly laughed out loud as he watched it move like this.

"I'm talking to you very seriously as a teacher!"

The boy quickly stopped smiling, and bit his lips hard: "I'm sorry, Master, I can't help it."

"Forget it, forget it, now that half of my cultivation base has been abolished as a teacher, it's not safe to stay here, I'll come down the mountain with you, get some fireworks in the world, maybe I can start again."

Toad swayed to the stone bed with his forelegs on his back, raised his frog face and looked up at the cliff-like edge of the bed, and sighed: "But being a teacher won't drag you down."

After finishing speaking, the toad kicked its legs, jumped up, and climbed onto the edge of the bed. Its forelimbs firmly grasped the straw mat, and its two webs hung in the air and kicked quickly... it just couldn't get up.

The short legs that were kicking fiercely were pushed by the outstretched hand, and then the toad rolled onto the straw mat, sat up, stared at Lu Liangsheng with big eyes, and shouted: "I can come up by myself for the teacher!! Quack!"

Turning over, he swayed over to the low desk with his frog webs, took down the black-striped gourd placed on it, and carried it behind his back: "This is the magic weapon that the teacher carries with him, and it can collect everything in the world! It's just that it can't be used now. This bookshelf There are still a few books on spells for the teacher, you take them all together."

Over there, Lu Liangsheng quickly put on his underwear, put on his ripped shoes and jumped onto the stone bed, and took a few simple books from the shelf into his arms.

The toad with the gourd on its back jumped off the stone bed with a bang, "My dear disciple, follow me as a teacher!" He said to the boulder over there, and then waved his webbed hand.

On the opposite side, a huge boulder stood there motionless.

Lu Liangsheng: "..."

Toad: "..."

Immediately, he sighed, and lowered his head: "It seems that the master's mana can only maintain his words, and he can't even push this boulder." He stretched out his hand and pulled the boy's trousers: "The boulder needs to be moved away, you still have a little practice. Because, it should be possible.”

The formula is only a few short words. When Lu Liangsheng recited it silently, he waved his hand at the boulder, and only heard the sound of rumbling and heavy movement. superior.

"Master is gone!"

Lu Liangsheng picked up Toad and put it on his shoulders, "It's time, I have to go back quickly, Master, hold on tight."

Before the toad on his shoulder could answer, the young man ran quickly. The mountain road was rugged, but it was not difficult for Lu Liangsheng who often walked here. What's more, since he practiced, his body is stronger and more agile than before.

"Liangsheng...you slow down..."

The running figure was undulating, and the toad on the shoulders was lying on it, bumping up and down, and shouted anxiously: "I have no hands as a teacher...a bad student...a...a mother...a...quack …”

After going down the mountain, the toad felt that most of its life was gone, and its eyelids drooped as if dying. Before entering the village, Lu Liangsheng whispered to it: "Master, don't let other people see it, you can talk..."

Toad feebly raised his eyelids and glanced at the boy.

"I know it for the teacher, quack."

After entering the village, I met the villagers who came back from work. Everyone was familiar with them. From a distance, I saw the toad on the young man's shoulder: "Liangsheng, I caught such a big toad..."

"I'm afraid he's about to become a genius, and he's carrying a gourd on his back." Some people joked.

"I picked the gourd from the mountain. I'm afraid it might run away, so I tie it up." Although Lu Liangsheng didn't have much experience, he was smart and quickly responded to the adults who were joking with him.

Back home, Lu Xiaoxian stared at the thing that her brother put down from his shoulders, she was frightened and ran away from it, since she was afraid of this kind of pimple-covered toad since she was a child.

But such a big one, after all, I have never seen it before. I found a small stick that was as long as an arm, and ran to poke it a few times. Even Lu Laoshi and Li Jinhua came around to look at it for a while.

"Apart from its size, there is nothing unusual about it. Liangsheng, throw it in the vegetable garden and help catch insects."

After his parents and sister left, Lu Liangsheng carefully put the toad on the edge of the vegetable garden fence, and whispered: "Master... I'm sorry for you, if it's cold at night, come to the room."

"go Go….."

A lump of big toad crawling on the ground bulged, looking at the dimly lit stove, the disciples and their families sat around the stove and had dinner.

"Thinking that I am a majestic demon cultivator who has transformed into a form... I have fallen into such a field...I hate it."

Buzzing... Mosquitoes flap their wings and fly.

In the blink of an eye, a long scarlet tongue wrapped it around and quickly pulled it into the mouth, and the toad licked its mouth.

"The taste is not bad... croak."

Chapter 9 Toad Taoist Looking up at the Starry Sky

The gray clouds float gently, revealing half a bright moon, and the sky is full of stars twinkling, dotted densely on the night sky. The foothills at night quiet down, and occasionally the howling of a lone wolf can be heard.

In the quiet mountain village, the people in this yard have already fallen asleep. Standing on the window sill with webbed hands, the short figure looks at the silver and gray starry sky, which is an unspeakable beauty.

It has no name, and it has never been named. Many, many years ago, it was just a small toad in a small puddle under a certain mountain. If there was no moon like tonight and a little girl I met by chance, maybe Like others of the same kind, after a few months, life will come to an end.

I don't know from which day, I gradually got the consciousness of my self, and fell in love with the girl who often came to the puddle to talk alone, and then the other party gradually became less and less.

It can only practice diligently by the puddle while waiting for the other party to appear.

As the body became bigger and bigger, surpassing many of the same kind, he slowly hid at the bottom of the puddle and continued to practice and wait.

After a long time, maybe a while, it doesn't count the time, it just remembers the repetition of spring and winter, and the puddles appeared for the first time in many years, because it felt the smell of the girl passing by the road outside.

It's a pity that the body was already huge at that time, and tall trees would be knocked down by its roots, so I could only hide in the mountains far away, watching the long dragon blowing and beating on the road, and carrying the sedan chair.

That day, the girl was very beautiful.

It's a pity to miss it.

Not long after, the hiding place was finally discovered by human beings. A few young cultivators came, perhaps not skilled in skills, but they were repulsed by it, and one of them was killed.

Within three days, more ascetics came. It knew that it couldn't beat it, and that it could only be killed by the opponent if it stayed, so it left the puddle and became a wandering toad.

In fact, demon cultivators will also devour and absorb each other, or just to meet the needs of food. After several fights and desperate efforts, they understand the truth between heaven and earth. In order not to be killed or eaten, the only way is to elevate themselves to a more terrifying level , absorbed a few demon pills obtained from other demon cultivators, and after an unknown number of years, he could gradually transform into a human form.

The first thing to do after transforming into a human form is to return to the puddle where you once stayed. It has become a clear pool, a gazebo is built, and a luxurious temple stands not far away. Help people become the people who are enshrined here.

One night, the toad spewed purple poisonous smoke, killing all the people in the temple in their dreams, and burned the whole temple to nothingness.

The notoriety began to spread far and wide, and it was called Ziyan Yaodao, but it likes to call itself Zixing Taoist, it wants to be a human being.

Because he wanted to see how the girl was doing, but when he saw her, it was not the best time.

The girl became a woman, gave birth to two children, and was beaten by her husband. When she saw her, she was drowned. It was said that she was stealing a man outside.

However, as soon as the woman died, the man asked someone to tell a matchmaker the next day that he was going to remarry.

The truth of the world has never changed.

The toad picked up the woman's body, picked it up from the bamboo cage, put her in the red dress she had seen in the mountains from afar, worshiped in the mountains, and got married.

Then, a tomb was built for the woman, and the words "beloved wife" were engraved on it.

Some people say that suona is a great musical instrument, it is the only one that can be played from weddings to funerals.

Soon, he came to the town where the woman's ex-husband lived. On the day when the other party was overjoyed, the whole town was shrouded in a sea of ​​purple smoke. Water flooded over his insteps.

Since then, the ascetics who heard the news began to chase and kill, one after another, one after another, from the mountains in the west to the Taotao River in the east. After losing the support in their hearts, they started Eating monks, eating demon cultivators, as long as he dares to come, he will not let go, and his cultivation base is getting stronger and stronger. If he is given another ten years, he may be able to rival the big demon in the demon king period.

However, a few years later, the cultivation base obtained by devouring began to backlash, and he also encountered a terrifying enemy during his weakness. An old monk, he didn't know whether it was a coincidence that day, or whether the other party knew his location and came to find him.

In that battle, there was only the old monk, with a thin body and pale beard, but he was like the angry-eyed Vajra in Buddhism. Fighting back, but in this kind of declining battle, he was hit by the opponent's purple gold bowl and escaped.

He ran to this world with poisonous smoke, and hid in a remote mountain forest where there is no evil spirit and people who practice Taoism, to recuperate from his injuries.

Later, I met a young man with good talent but not much experience in the world. If I gave him the cultivation base of a demon cultivator, and combined with the elixir I carried with me, it would be a great tonic. Although it cannot heal, At least he can recover part of himself, this kind of result is the best.

The young man named Lu Liangsheng did not disappoint him, he was able to gather demonic power in just a few days, it's a pity that people can't practice like that, but fortunately, he can rush over when there is a backlash, and he can save him by himself Down.

Once everything is done, it's time to enjoy your fruits.

And then, things went beyond expectations. The original perfect plan was ruined by an inscription that the young man copied from somewhere. It was blessed with incense, which directly made him hurt. The human shape disappeared, and it directly showed In the original form, the mana he tried his best to maintain after being injured is also ten to nine.

Fortunately, during this period of time, the lies he had laid out could be recovered, and he was able to deceive innocent young people, and died without being discovered. Of course, he was not worried that a small young man would kill him.

"After all, this old man is going straight to the demon king... croak."

Taoist Zixing put his hands behind his back, looked up at a silver belt paved by the dense stars in the night sky, thinking like this.

Also remembered a lot of things in the past.

If he couldn't beat that old monk, it was because of his own incompetence, but when he fell into such a situation, it was...

In the room, there was a slight snoring sound, and the toad standing on the window frame turned his face slightly. In his big eyes, a scarlet spot slowly spread and became fierce.

Then, he jumped down, stepped on the ground with his flippers, and walked towards the sleeping figure on the wooden bed step by step.

"You ignorant junior, the old man was murdered so badly, how could I just let you go..."

Climbing onto the wooden bed, looking at the back lying on the side, the dense lumps on the back shook slightly, as if they were about to break open, and little dark purple spots emerged under his vigorous urging.
