I just want to be a quiet man

He didn't step out immediately, but cast [Ghost Controlling Technique], summoned a resentful soul with five levels of qi training, and made it walk out of the gate.

A while later, through the induction of [Ghost Controlling Technique], Pei Ling didn't find anything unusual about the resentful soul, so he immediately cast [Blood Ghost Escape Technique] and fled outwards!

Whoosh!

As soon as he stepped out of the gate, the foreground immediately changed. Pei Ling realized that he hadn't left the Taoist temple at all, but appeared in a strange courtyard!

On the courtyard wall not far away, a moon cave gate with carved flowers and grass is standing quietly.

Pei Ling frowned slightly, this is the courtyard of the Taoist temple!

He deliberately didn't approach it just now, but he still accidentally bumped into it?Moreover, the resentful soul sent to explore the way just now is not here at all!

Just as he was thinking, the connection between the resentful soul and him was suddenly severed.

The resentful souls at the fifth level of Qi training disappeared without a sound!

Seeing this, Pei Ling frowned even tighter, but soon, he smiled lightly, this Taoist view is indeed very abnormal.

But it doesn't matter, he can go out now!

"Nine Souls." Pei Ling ordered in a deep voice, "If I leave the Taoist temple later, you will immediately pat me on the shoulder."

Dao Ling said respectfully: "Yes, master."

Immediately afterwards, Pei Ling thought inwardly: "System, I want to practice, one-click entrustment of [unnamed exercises]!"

The system went online immediately: "Ding dong! The intelligent cultivation system will serve you wholeheartedly! One-click trusteeship, smart upgrade! Start hosting practice now, intimate reminder: During the practice period, the host will lose control of the body, please don't panic..."

Hearing the system's notification tone, Pei Ling looked calm.

It has been more than a day since we parted from Senior Sister Li, and at the speed of Yinzhou in Xuanguling, it is hard to say whether the Taoist companion is still in the service area.

But it doesn't matter, according to the usual style of the mentally handicapped system, if Senior Sister Li is too far away, it is very likely that she will give him a Taoist companion on the spot!

As for this Taoist companion, it doesn't matter if it's a human, a ghost, or a demon.

Anyway, it's better than walking into the Taoist temple in a daze, but not even finding an enemy.

Moreover, Pei Ling was not worried that she would accidentally injure an innocent woman like Han's Villa did before.Because as long as he leaves the Taoist temple, the Nine Soul Sword will immediately interrupt his trusteeship.

Chapter 55: Weird Rain.

"Ding dong! It has been detected that the nameless exercise is a dual-cultivation exercise, which requires a Taoist companion to practice."

"Ding dong! It is detected that the host lacks a Taoist companion, and the system will give a Taoist companion for free..."

The system's notification sounds sounded one after another, and Pei Ling was startled. It wasn't that the mentally handicapped system gave away a Taoist companion for free, but why did he lack a Taoist companion?

He has a companion!

Before Pei Ling could figure it out, under the control of the system, he had already strode towards the main hall of the Taoist temple.

Along the way, the green bamboos are whirling, the stamens are fragrant, and the scenery is quite elegant.

Soon, Pei Ling pushed open the door of the palace and walked in.

The layout of this hall is the same as that of ordinary Taoist temples, except for the statues of gods enshrined, which are hidden behind the heavy curtain, so the appearance cannot be seen clearly.

On the long table in front of the shrine, there are offerings such as melons, fruits and fish, which look very fresh.

It seems that it has just been served not long ago.

On the blue brick floor below, a row of futons was neatly arranged, with many incense sticks placed on both sides.

At this moment, most of the joss sticks were extinguished, and only part of the candles were still burning as usual.

In the whole hall, the smoky air was so strong that it was so strong that it was choking.

Seeing this scene, Pei Ling felt calm.

No matter what the system presents to him right now, it's better than playing hide-and-seek in this empty Taoist temple!

But then, he saw himself walking back and forth around the hall.

After walking around more than [-] circles, I finally sat down on a futon in the back: "Ding dong! The system did not find a Taoist companion, and the gift failed!"

"Ding dong! There is a lack of Taoist companions detected. This is the end of this practice. Thank you host for using the intelligent cultivation system, one-click trusteeship, soaring without worry! Looking forward to your sharing of practice evaluation, please give five-star praise if you are satisfied!"

After regaining control of her body, Pei Ling's face changed slightly.

Did the system not detect a suitable female cultivator, or was it unable to walk out of the Taoist temple?

If it's the former, he can switch to another practice.

But if it's the latter...

Rumble!

Suddenly, there was a sound of thunder above the head.

Immediately, there was a messy sound of jumping beads on the tiles.

But suddenly it rained cats and dogs.

Whoop whoop... Pei Ling stood up, walked to the entrance of the main hall, frowned and looked at the heavy rain outside the window.

The rain came suddenly and with great momentum. Almost instantly, raindrops the size of soybeans fell down quickly and violently.

On the green brick floor in front of the court, misty water vapor quickly filled the courtyard.

Not long after, a thick layer of fog seemed to cover the entire courtyard, obscuring the view. Three feet away, only the sound of roaring rain could be heard, but the specific scene could not be seen clearly at all.

Even with the eyesight of a monk, he could only vaguely see some outlines.

Pei Ling's face was gloomy, this rain is very strange!

He didn't dare to touch it directly, so he continued to summon a resentful soul of the sixth level of Qi training, and ordered him to enter the rain.

The resentful soul was fine at first, but according to Pei Ling's instructions, he walked towards Zhaobi for a short while, just like the resentful soul who practiced the fifth level of Qi before, and lost contact with Pei Ling instantly.

And Pei Ling turned his eyesight to the extreme, and he could only see that the resentful soul seemed to disappear into the mist all of a sudden.

No symptoms, no struggles.

He pondered slightly in his heart: "Two options. One is to practice [Burning Ye Chapter], break through the late stage of foundation establishment as soon as possible, and then thoroughly investigate the strangeness in the observation on the spot."

"If it is still like this at that time, and there is no trace of any other living beings in the weird, we will directly tear down this Taoist temple... to force the weirdness behind the scenes!"

"The second is to entrust the [Blood Fiend Saber Technique], or other exercises, and continue to try to leave Pengying Temple, and then discuss it in the long term after going to the outside room."

After hesitating for a moment, Pei Ling immediately decided to improve his cultivation first.

Time is very precious right now, and he has used the system once just now, and instead of leaving Pengying Temple, he went deeper into this strange place.

If you continue to think about leaving now, it's okay if you can succeed, but if you can't succeed, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?

More importantly, there are too many uncertainties in the system.

Wouldn't it be self-defeating if you gave him something dangerous as a present?

In any case, his own strength is his biggest trump card!

So, Pei Ling took out a jade bottle full of Wumengsan and was about to take it when he suddenly heard a burst of chaotic footsteps from outside the hall.

He immediately put away the jade bottle, held the handle of the Jiupo knife with his backhand, and stood ready.

"Cough, cough, cough..." A group of people hurried up the stone steps in front of the main hall, before entering the hall, they were coughed by the strong smell of incense.

Amid the sound of coughing, seven or eight young men dressed in fast boots, hanging knives and sabers looked like guards. After seeing Pei Ling, especially the Jiupo knife in his hand, they immediately moved and took the two young The girl stays with her.

The two female family members are about the same age, but the slightly taller girl has thin skin and tender flesh, and has a beautiful appearance. There is a black mole the size of a sesame seed on the corner of her mouth, which adds a bit of playfulness, and her clothes are bright and gorgeous; To be obviously rough, the appearance can only be said to be lacklustre.

He was wearing a simple green jacket and plain skirt, standing in front of the former, very dusty and inconspicuous.

It seems that this should be a pair of master and servant.

"I'm loyal to Ji, and I'm in charge of Ji's family." The other party stood silently for a moment, and among the pedestrians, a middle-aged man who was the oldest and wore a long robe came out, bowed his hands to Pei Ling, and spoke in harmony. Said, "I was ordered by the old lady to escort the eldest lady back to her hometown. I don't want to be a short distance from the gate of the mansion, but it is blocked by the heavy rain... I wonder if it is possible to use the place of honor to allow the eldest lady and the maid to hide for a while?"

Pei Ling didn't answer right away, and cast the [Spiritual Eye Technique], scanning through everyone one by one, carefully checking several times, and found that these people were all mortals without cultivation.

He didn't relax his vigilance because of this, his eyes paused on the rain stains on the pedestrians, and he wondered: Is it because these people's cultivation base is too advanced that I can't see through their concealment, or is it the rain outside that can hurt the soul but not harm the soul? flesh?

Or, this rain is aimed at the various methods of monks who enter the Tao, and it is harmless to ordinary people?

He couldn't be sure for a while, so he slowly loosened the handle of the Nine Soul Knife, and said calmly: "I am not the owner of this place, but I came here to hide from the rain."

Zheng Jingshan?

Never heard of this name.

Moreover, the other party looked very young, and he was not a very powerful swordsman.

Thinking of this, Ji Youzhong and his party secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and cupped their hands towards Pei Ling again, and then they protected their young lady and entered.

The main hall of the Taoist temple is quite large, and neither side wants to cause trouble.

Therefore, Ji Youzhong and his party specially chose a corner opposite to Pei Ling to settle down.

These people were obviously very skilled in wild life, and soon managed to build a fire, and the wet people gathered around the fire to keep warm.

The maid in the middle seemed to want to say a few words to amuse her lady, but before she could finish her sentence, Ji Youzhong stopped her with stern eyes.

Obviously, the other party is very cautious, and he doesn't want to attract too much attention when the female relatives are talking and laughing, causing extra problems.

For a while, only the "cracking" sound of burning firewood was heard in the hall, and no one spoke.

Pei Ling sat on the futon, seemed to be resting with his eyes closed, but quietly observed the pedestrian's every move.

For a while, nothing unusual happened to them.

He shook his head slightly in his heart, what a pity.

If these people are really just ordinary people, it is obviously not the time to come.

Right now, I can't protect myself, and if something happens, I'm afraid it will be difficult to save them...

Just as he was thinking so, footsteps came from outside the door again.

"Straight mother thief, this rain is really heavy!" Accompanied by cursing voices, three men in different costumes rushed in as if no one else was there.

Pei Ling slightly raised her head and glanced, her pupils suddenly shrank!

Chapter 56: Evil?

The three new arrivals, the leader looked to be about 30 years old, with a dark complexion, a pair of triangular eyes shining brightly, wearing a khaki Taoist robe, a square bun loosely tied on his head, and an emerald bamboo hairpin inserted horizontally;

Walking in the middle was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy with a simple and honest appearance and a pale face. There was a nail-sized mole under his left eye. Young people are generally clear and bright;

The last one is a dwarf who is less than the waist of an ordinary person, with brown robes and red hair, and a dove-shaped face. Looking at his age, his expression does not have the slightest kindness, but is full of viciousness.

What surprised Pei Ling was not the appearance and behavior of these three people, but that they were all monks!

The person in the lead practiced Qi at the seventh level, and the two behind him practiced at the sixth level.

Although the balance of qi is vain and the spiritual power is mixed, it can be seen at a glance that he is a casual cultivator, but he is a real monk.

How is this going?

Ordinary people and monks can pass through the rain without any problem. Could it be that the heavy rain from the outside is only aimed at ghosts and other intangible things?

Pei Ling frowned slightly.

After seeing the three people entering, he wandered around, he didn't want to cause trouble at this time, so he averted his eyes, only feeling secretly.

However, after looking around the three people, they all showed confusion.

Immediately, the leader yellow-robed monk frowned and said, "What's going on? Didn't I agree to rush all night and go to the market to buy what I need? Why did you come to this Taoist temple?"

"Brother Zhu, didn't you lead the way?" The young monk and the dwarf monk were slightly taken aback, and then said, "We thought you were here for other things."

The yellow-robed monk recalled carefully, and said blankly: "I didn't look at the road just now, I just walked here."

As they said that, the three of them also saw the two parties in the palace.

On one side is an ordinary ordinary martial artist... The three of them immediately turned their eyes away without interest.

On the other side, it seems that the worldly rich family is traveling.

Ji Youzhong followed many guards, and the three of them passed by with just a glance.

On the contrary, Miss Ji family, who was surrounded by them, was about fifteen or sixteen years old, fresh and beautiful, which made their eyes light up slightly.

It is rare for secular women to have such beauty.
