The years of reselling the haunted house

The old man has kept himself locked in the pharmacy and has no restrictions on my movements.

I first found the kitchen and the stove. There were half a tank of rice, half a tank of water, oil and salt, but there were no dishes.Moreover, the top of the pot and stove was covered with ashes. It was obvious that the old man hadn't started the fire for a long time.

I put the rice in the pot, filled the stove and cooked it, then walked out of the thatched hut and came to the backyard.

There are more than ten acres of medicinal herbs in the back. I want to find some edible vegetables.

I walked around the backyard for a long time, and finally found a vegetable field in a corner.

Those herbs grow lush and shiny, but the vegetables in this vegetable field are sparse and their appearance is horrible. It seems that the old man puts all his thoughts on those herbs. Doesn't he usually eat vegetables?This is a typical non-human fireworks.

I picked some good-looking ones in the vegetable field, went back to the kitchen, and tried to burn some green vegetables.

It is no exaggeration to say that I have some experience in cooking.

When I was poor, I was reluctant to spend money to eat out, so I could only buy some cheap dishes and cook them back.Over time, he actually managed to make unusual flavors out of simple dishes.

Although it can't be said to turn decay into magic, the things that are made must not be unpalatable.

It's just that the old man's condiments are really lacking here, and the things he makes are a little worse than my highest level.But it's okay to fill your stomach.

When the meal was ready, I gave Liang Yue some of the food and fed it to her.

Then I went to ask the old man to eat.

The old man was still studying in front of the medicine pot, sometimes frowning, sometimes inexplicably excited, crying and laughing, as if in a daze.

Hearing that I was cooking, the old man took a look at me before he came out and asked, "Do you know how to cook?"

I nodded: "I know a little bit, just be familiar with it. Don't be disgusted with it."

The old man responded, came to the kitchen, and found that there was food on the table, he sniffed and sat down.

I'm trying to please the old man, and I hope he'll change his mind and let us stay before tomorrow.I firmly believe that he must have a way to save Liang Yue, even though he used Liang Yue as a test object just now.But the result speaks for itself. Without him, Liang Yue would be in danger.

The old man took a bite of the dish, nodded and said, "Okay. It's not bad. I haven't eaten such a hot dish for a long time."

"Since you like to eat, I can make it for you every day." I said hastily.

As a result, upon hearing my words, the old man spat out the mouthful of food that was put into his mouth.

"Senior, you... what's wrong with this? Isn't it delicious?" I questioned.

"It's not delicious. It's not delicious. I didn't expect that you are setting me up. You are short of your mouth and short of your hand. Do you want me to eat the food you cook, and you owe you another one?" Humanity. You still want to do it for me every day, which means you want me to keep you. Thanks to my smartness, I woke up early and saw through your mind. You want to set me up for the old man, so be tender. You Kid, you look very simple and honest, but I didn't expect you to have a lot of eyes. I don't eat, I don't eat."

The old man gave me a scolding, and I couldn't laugh or cry when I heard it.

I did intend to please the old man, but it was not as evil as he said.

I smiled wryly and said: "Senior, I really didn't mean that. If you don't like us staying here, we will leave tomorrow. Besides, I did cook this meal, but I used all the ingredients from your place. The place is also yours. So you don't have to owe me favors, you have to eat what you have to eat."

The old man blinked, touched his head with his hand, and nodded: "You seem to be talking about the same thing. This place belongs to me, and the food is also mine. You cook here and eat it yourself, so we are talking about it." It's even, it doesn't count as a favor to you, does it?"

I looked at this old man, and I felt that his character was a little cute.Seeing that he is not young, sometimes he behaves like a child.

I hurriedly said, "That's right. We're even, you can eat."

"It's okay, it's okay." The old man didn't have any scruples anymore, he swept away the rest of the meal sullenly, and finally burped and said, "I haven't eaten such a full meal for a long time."

I asked curiously: "Senior, you live here, don't you cook? Then what do you usually eat?"

"What do you eat?" The old man scratched his head again: "What do I usually eat? I don't seem to have eaten anything? Sometimes I gnaw some herbs, just like green bark. Sometimes I drink some spring water..."

Looking at the old man's reaction, he didn't seem like a person living in this world.There is no one in the world who usually lives by eating herbs and drinking spring water.

"Then these rice..."

The old man waved his hand: "It was sent by those people. I have never used it. No, I have to refine medicine. It will be bad if I delay the time."

As he said that, the old man ran back to the pharmacy to fiddle with his things.

I shook my head, the old man ate all the food, and left nothing for me.

Fortunately, I'm not very hungry now, and I still have some dry food in my backpack, which is enough to satisfy my hunger.I went back to look at Liang Yue. After eating, she regained her complexion and fell asleep at this time.

I didn't want to disturb her, so I walked out of the room and continued to wander in the yard.

The environment here is completely hidden in the mountains, surrounded by mountains and shaded by green trees. If you listen carefully, you can hear the sound of spring water flowing. It is an out-and-out valley, which can be called a paradise.And I tested it with a compass, and the magnetic field here is quite special, and the compass even lost its effect.This is somewhat similar to that of Grandma Yan's Happy Valley.The feeling of déjà vu was even stronger.

It may be because of being in the mountains, the air here is very fresh and smells refreshing.

The old man has been in the pharmacy, so I found a slightly higher hillside and sat down. Since this place is so beautiful, there must be a lot of pure air in the air.Anyway, idle is idle, I can't let go of such a good place, it's important to hurry up and practice Qi.

I sat down cross-legged, tried my best to get rid of distracting thoughts, let myself become quiet, and then slowly introduced the outside breath into my body.

Breath into the body, let me feel them all at once.The aura here is indeed much purer, and it is a rare good aura.

The formation of this good qi has many aspects.It is related to the local climate conditions, geographical location, and the density of nearby vegetation. Of course, the most important thing is Feng Shui.

Chapter 1897 I'm Not A Thief

Just like the place where the stars are hidden, although it is located in the county seat, due to the relationship between feng shui and location, the purest aura can be gathered there.

I think that the old man must have his intentions in choosing such a valley.

So it is not surprising that the breath here is pure.

And after I introduced those breaths into my body, that unexpected situation reappeared.

It's these auras that gather together, they don't fall into the dantian, but rise up and go towards the position between my eyebrows.

Uncle San has already explained this situation to me.I know this is because of the bone relics between my brows.After being filtered by Dao bone relics, the purity of those breaths can be increased several times.From this, with the help of Dao bone relics, I can almost achieve the effect of refining Qi in a place where stars are hidden.

So this time, I didn't panic, but followed the normal Qi training procedure, directing the air flow to the center of the eyebrows.

At the beginning, I was not proficient.Because I have always channeled breath into Dantian.

Tried several times in a row and finally succeeded.

And I also suddenly felt that the bone relic at the center of the eyebrows had a tendency to pulsate.

bang... bang... bang...

Like the beating of the heart, the beating of the bone relic is very clear and obvious.

The bone relic has been in my head for a long time. As the priest Shimen said, the bone relic has slowly grown together with my skull.I usually don't feel its presence.

Unexpectedly, after I broke through the second level, when I practiced Qi again, this bone relic suddenly made me feel its existence.

All the breath gathered in the body, and I led it into the Dao bone relic.

Then the bone relics filter out those bad breaths, and excrete them out of the body with sweat, and at the same time bring out some filth in the body.Turn the purest breath into inner breath, infuse it into the whole body, and provide the accumulation of energy for the bones, joints and meridians of the body.

Over time, when the energy is stored to a certain extent and reaches saturation in the body, when the body can no longer store more energy, the structure of the body must break through to store more energy, and these are also the accumulation process of internal force, and also The process of gas refining and upgrading.

Therefore, the higher the level of the person, the stronger the physical function and the stronger the internal force.The internal force that can be stored in the body is also abundant enough.

This is the procedure for practicing Qi through Dao Bone Relics that I have figured out.

As the benefits of Daogu relics gradually emerged, of course I also recognized the existence of Daogu relics in my head more and more.

Finally, I channeled the pure qi I absorbed this time from the Dao bone relic, and circulated it in my body for a small cycle.

"Huh..." The exhaustion in my body was swept away again, replaced by incomparable joy. I took a deep breath and slowly opened my eyes.

As a result, when I opened my eyes, I saw a face in front of me.

"Ah..." I was so frightened that I hid my body backwards, and this time I was defenseless and rolled directly down the slope.

I finally stabilized my body, and when I looked up, I found that the man also jumped down, still staring at me.

It was the old man. He had an unbelievable expression on his face, as if he had just seen something extremely weird.

"Senior...Senior...what are you doing?" I had just entered meditation to adjust my breath and practice Qi, so I was supposed to be sensitive to the outside world.But when did this old man come to me, so close to me, I didn't notice it at all.

Seeing his expression, I couldn't understand what he meant at all.

The old man didn't say a word, he jumped over again, grabbed my collar, and lifted me up from the ground.

At the same time, the old man had an extra small knife in his other hand, which was dangling in front of me.

I tried to struggle a couple of times, but it didn't help at all.Under the control of the old man, I have no room to resist.

"Boy, I didn't expect you to be a thief. Today you fall into my hands, how do you count?"

Saying that, the old man put the tip of the knife on my forehead.

"Senior, who... who is the thief, did you recognize the wrong person? I didn't steal anything from you." I was so frightened that I broke out in a cold sweat. Knowing the old man's technique, my head would definitely be cut open with the knife.

"You still don't admit it, do you think I can't find it if it's hidden in your head?"

"Hiding in the head?" I was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that the old man should be referring to the bone relic.

After all, Taoist Master Shimen also said at the time that I am carrying the bone relics, and some people who are good at Taoism can see it as long as they pay a little attention, so I may cause unnecessary trouble.

Fortunately, I acted in a low-key manner, and after such a long time, nothing happened.This old man is very knowledgeable, obviously he can see that I have the bone relic.

I hurriedly explained: "Senior, are you talking about the bone relic? I didn't steal it. Someone gave it to me. You misunderstood."

"Nonsense. Then tell me, who gave it to you?" The old man refused to let go.

"Senior, this...I can't say it. If I say it...you may not know."

The old man stared, his hands tightened, and the tip of the knife pierced my brow, and a sharp pain came.

I could feel the hardness and coldness of the knife point poking against the bone, and a sense of fear followed.When the old man discovered the Dao bone relic, he seemed to be a different person from before, and became much more ruthless.

"Okay. Let me tell you, this bone relic was given to me by Daoist Shimen."

The old man shook his hands when he heard this, and asked in a trembling voice: "Prince Shimen? You...how did you know Taoist Shimen? No...impossible, how old are you, how can you meet Taoist Shimen?"

It seems that this old man knows such a number one figure as Taoist Master Shimen, which is beyond my expectation.Daoist Shimen died a long time ago, and the Daoist Shimen I have met only appeared in a special way in a special environment.

"Speaking of which, Taoist Master Shimen can be regarded as my master. He passed on the bone relic to me. I didn't want it at the time, but he insisted on giving it to me. In fact, I have been looking for his disciples all the time. I want to give it to him. This bone relic was returned, but it has never been found..."

As I was talking, I suddenly realized a problem, the old man valued Daogu relic so much, wouldn't he know the whereabouts of Lingxuzi?

So I asked again: "Senior, do you know Master Lingxuzi?"

When the old man heard this, he put the knife away with a swipe.But he didn't say yes or no to my question, he just said: "Tell me how you met Daoist Shimen."

I nodded. Although the old man's actions and tone were a little heavy just now, I didn't think he would be a bad person, so I told the old man what happened when I met Taoist priest Shimen in the Jiulong underground palace.

Chapter 1898 Lingxuzi

It gives me the feeling that since this old man knows Taoist priest Shimen and cares so much about Daogu relics, he must know Lingxuzi. I wonder if he is Lingxuzi's apprentice or something based on his age.

Listening quietly to me talking about this experience, the old man sighed, looked up at the sky, looked at the sky for a few minutes, then patted my shoulder, turned around and walked towards the fenced yard without saying a word .

Looking at the back of the old man, I felt more and more that this old man had a story.Could it be that he really knew where Lingxuzi was?

If I can find Lingxuzi, although I have recently felt the benefits of Daogu relic, I still have to honor the preface and return this thing to others.

Thinking of this, I hurriedly chased after him, and followed the old man into the fenced yard and into a room.

I also walked in, and the old man didn't refuse.

Seeing me coming in, the old man looked at me and said, "I didn't expect that I asked you to call me big brother, and you were really right."

"Calling you big brother? Senior, what do you mean by that?" I asked, puzzled.

"To be precise, I am your senior brother, you should call me senior brother."

"Senior brother? Where is the senior brother... huh? Senior, you can't be... you can't be..." I suddenly understood, my eyes widened, and I couldn't believe what was happening before me, let alone my own. judge.

"I am Lingxuzi."

With a calm expression on his face, the old man said something lightly.

But this sentence undoubtedly made me feel like a storm hitting the shore, and I was stunned all of a sudden.

I have been looking for Lingxuzi all along.The latest clue came from Granny Yan in Xiaoyao Valley.Granny Yan has learned skills from Lingxuzi, so she can be regarded as Lingxuzi's apprentice.After Lingxuzi left Xiaoyao Valley, he disappeared without a trace.

Recently, I have been entangled in other affairs, so I didn't specifically look for clues about Lingxuzi.In fact, in the final analysis, the more important thing is that there are no clues at all.

So I have basically given up looking for Lingxuzi, this character has always been living in my imagination.I even thought that Lingxuzi might not be alive anymore, after all, he would be more than 100 years old if he was alive.

And the Dao bone relic between my eyebrows has already taken root with the skull, even if Lingxuzi is found, it is unknown whether it can be taken out.

Even just now, I just boldly guessed that the old man might be Lingxuzi's apprentice or junior, and I didn't dare to think that he was Lingxuzi himself.

Looking at his face, he looks like he is seven or eighty years old at most, how could he be a hundred-year-old Lingxuzi?

"You...you are Lingxuzi?" I was dumbfounded, and it took me a long time to utter a word.
