Seeking immortality in a deceitful way starts by making oneself into a puppet

He Ping sat back in the paper sedan and was heading to the meeting point in the direction indicated in the jade talisman.

At the same time, he was also checking the loot after killing the red-robed demon monk. This time, he got two trophies in total.

One is the "Dakini Karma Goddess Bead". This skull necklace is a powerful magic weapon. Each skull is inlaid with gold and jade, which is obviously the hand of a skilled craftsman.

"Unfortunately, the skull necklace, a magic weapon, must be destroyed by Buddhist methods. If this thing falls into my hands, if I can't find the method to control it, it will not be able to work miraculously for the time being."

To a large extent, magical instruments are refined by practitioners, and therefore, they also have a strong personal style of practitioners. For example, this "Dakini Karma Mahayana Bead", if you don't have Buddhist cultivation, it will be useless. Impulse cannot be activated.

In addition to the skull necklace, he also took back the small copper bowl. The copper bowl was only the size of a palm. He Ping looked over it and found a line of writing engraved on the bottom of the copper bowl.

"'All actions are impermanent, arising and passing away. This is the law of arising and passing away, and cessation is happiness'?"

He muttered something, guessing it was a Buddhist verse, but he didn't know what it meant.

"This copper bowl should also be a magic weapon, but unlike this skull necklace, it is not the kind of magic weapon used for offense and defense. This thing is quite strange-"

He Ping studied again and couldn't figure out a reason. In the end, he could only choose to put away the two things.

Even if you can't use Buddhist magical artifacts, you can still exchange them with others. Moreover, these two Buddhist magical artifacts may come from Daxiye Kingdom and are definitely worth a lot of money.

It is said that when Dayou Kingdom destroyed Shichan Temple and exterminated Buddhism four times, it seized a large number of Buddhist classics and may have also mastered part of the Buddhist teachings on how to enter the Tao.

"...It's quite profitable."

he muttered.

…

After staying on the paper sedan for two hours, He Ping seemed to have arrived at the rendezvous point and got off the sedan.

There was a forest outside the sedan, and the gloomy sunlight shrouded the surrounding trees. Even the shadows on the ground looked strange.

There was a path a few feet away, a winding path with wild grass covering both sides like fire. At the end of this winding trail, you can vaguely see a village on the top of a low mountain.

"Why is there a village in such a deep mountain and old forest?"

There may be ignorant villagers in the village. If they see paper sedans and paper puppets, they might be frightened. He Ping waved his hand behind him, and several paper puppets carrying the sedan pushed hard, and the paper sedan was folded. She was sucked into his shadow along with those paper puppets.

He Ping stepped forward and walked for a while, passing through the woods on this path. In front of him was a farmland that had been harvested once. These fields had been plowed over, and large chunks of black mud were piled in the fields.

There is a small stone bridge at the end of the field ridge. Next to the bridge is a very shallow river. Because it snowed yesterday, there is still snow piled beside the river.

"Which person?"

He Ping noticed a figure standing by the river. It was an old man dressed like a street vendor. The old man was holding a fishing rod and sitting on a stone to fish.

"Grandpa the salesman?"

He quickly realized that this person was probably Chi Xinzi, the person who disguised himself as a salesman and handed the jade talisman to the boy.

(...So, I will have a conflict with that demonic monk in red. Is it possible that this guy is also responsible for this?)

He Ping's heart moved. He had been a little suspicious before, because it was a bit strange that the jade talisman would be handed over to the boy. Now it seems that this is too much of a coincidence. However, I never believe in coincidences.

However, he was a little confused as to what Chi Xinzi's intention was in doing this?

"Forget it, the monk is dead anyway. This is just a way to blackmail Chi Xinzi. If he doesn't come out with some regulations, then I will have no choice but to fall out in front of him!"

He Ping sneered in his heart. If Chi Xinzi didn't give him a reasonable explanation, he wouldn't make it easy for him.

Just when his thoughts turned to this, he smiled coldly and said loudly: "Senior Brother Chixinzi, you really have leisure time and ambition, why do you come to a place like this to fish?"

The old man dressed as a salesman twisted his neck, and what emerged was an unfamiliar face. This face was different from the old man with the calligraphy stickers before. This also proved that Chi Xinzi would change his face every time he appeared.

"It turns out to be Junior Brother He. You arrived a little late. Senior Brother, I originally expected you to arrive here yesterday."

He Ping saw that Chi Xinzi had changed his face, and he was also thinking that this old ghost might not have used a human skin mask to disguise himself like him, but that he might have used the secret technique of living puppets to change his face. Only then can you change faces at will.

(Then again, Chi Xinzi should also have used the secret technique of living puppets, but I don’t know how many parts of his body have been replaced. Theoretically, the more parts he replaces, the stronger he will be...)

While thinking about this question, He Ping replied in a pleasant manner: "Junior brother, I will be a day late, but I still have to thank you for your kindness."

With that said, he told Chi Xinzi about his encounter with the demon monk.

"Senior brother, the jade talisman in that boy's hand should be your handiwork. Senior brother, please don't say that you have nothing to do with this matter!"

"Hahaha, so that's what happened?"

Chixinzi took back the fishing rod and laughed suddenly: "Junior brother, don't be angry. It's a long story. I know who the monk is. His name is Abra. He is not from Dayou, but from Daxiye Kingdom. He has a good background, he is a monk who came from Jingang Zen Monastery. I didn’t expect you, junior brother, to meet him. This is quite beyond my expectation..."

"Senior brother, people don't tell secret stories," He Ping said calmly: "If it were another person, he might think this is a coincidence, but I never believe in coincidences in the world. I guess you want to use my hand to get rid of That monster monk, perhaps wants that monster monk to get rid of me, it’s best for both of us to suffer losses and die together.”

"Hey, Junior Brother He, why do you have to say that."

Chi Xinzi shook his head.

"Then Abra's magic power is really not comparable to yours. It doesn't take much effort to kill him with your ability. I went around in a circle just to do you a big favor, junior brother. You have misunderstood my good intentions."

"I also misunderstood your kindness, senior brother."

He Ping smiled instead of getting angry.

"Then I need to ask senior brother for advice."

"Actually, things are not as complicated as you think."

Chi Xinzi smiled.

"I have also said before that the Narcissus ruins in the Three Yuan Demon Palace are full of dangers. Before you, I had invited four comrades, and the five of them decided to join forces to explore the ruins. This monk Abra is one of them .”

"Then why do we need to change people midway?"

He Ping snorted coldly.

"Abra has a reckless temper. Neither I nor the other three people like this partner. However, he also knows about the ruins. If he spreads it everywhere, trouble will inevitably occur if the news gets out."

Chi Xinzi continued: "I intended to get rid of him, but I couldn't let the other three people know about it, so I took advantage of my junior brother's help."

"Is this what Senior Brother calls 'good intentions'?"

"Junior brother."

Chi Xinzi pretended to cough again.

"If you want to take Abra's place in this operation, you must at least show your strength. I originally expected you to come here to meet me after taking the jade talisman, and then I would introduce you to meet the other three people. Abra doesn't Even if there is an accident, you will arrive at the scene. When the time comes, you two will fight each other and decide the winner. I didn't expect that you would quietly kill this monk on the spot."

"hehe."

He Ping just sneered.

Chi Xinzi also knows his own character very well, so he should have planned this matter in advance...

"But this is not a bad thing. This monk was born in the Vajra Zen Monastery and has a strong magical power. Since he was killed by you, you will take his place. The other three have nothing to say."

Chixinzi smiled and said: "Those three people are from the Qihun Sect, the Ghost Crying Sect, and the Zijia Palace. They are all members of the 'Nine Evils of Immortality'. They are not inferior to our Immortal Puppet Sect. If Junior Brother doesn't show it, How can you convince the public with just a few tricks? I only took this step for the sake of my junior brother."

After saying this, he took out a silver iron order from his arms.

"Junior brother, the iron talisman I earned you last time contains the refining technique of 'Resentful Demon'. This iron talisman hides the refining method of 'Death Demon'. It is also one of the secret methods of "Growing Demon". Just treat me as my senior brother and make amends to you!"

Chi Xinzi waved his hand and He Ping took the pale silver iron plate.

"The refining method of 'Death Demon'?"

"There are nine chapters in "Cultivation of Demons", collectively called "Nine Refinements of Ghost Demons". 'Resentful Demon' and 'Death Demon' are both one of them. There are still many benefits hidden in the Narcissus Cave Mansion. We brothers and sisters will cooperate together. If people are of the same mind, their sharpness can cut through gold, isn't it much better than taking advantage of others for nothing?"

Chi Xinzi's rhetoric was somewhat effective. He Ping thought about it for a while and thought that it was right.

"After all, the time to fall out has not come yet, and I don't know Chi Xinzi's trump card, so I will just pretend to be greedy for benefits, so that this guy can relax his vigilance and find another opportunity to get rid of him."

However, he has not forgotten that his main goal here is to find an opportunity to get rid of Chi Xinzi.

However, in order to lower Chi Xinzi's vigilance as much as possible, He Ping felt that he had to pretend to be greedy. After he checked the iron plate, the usual cold and cold look on his face disappeared, and he appeared His face was filled with a warm glow.

"Senior brother is absolutely right. We, fellow seniors, are members of the same family. The benefits of Narcissus Cave should definitely not be cheap to outsiders."

"Junior brother, if you think so, that would be great."

He Ping and Chi Xinzi looked at each other and smiled, as if their previous dirty plans had been resolved.

"By the way, where are the colleagues from Qihun Sect, Ghost Crying Sect, and Zijia Palace? Senior brother, don't you want to introduce them to me?"

"This is easy to say, let's go to the village first."

Chi Xinzi laughed loudly, stroking his long beard and making a gesture of invitation.
