From the Red Mansion to Riding a Dragon to the Great Desolation

Chen Xi continues to tell fortunes to others under the guise of "a thousand pieces of gold", and part-time job is to subdue demons and supersede dead souls, recruit coolies for Xichen Dojo, and occasionally encounter Taoist priests who rob business.

Not far away, a young man covered in dark clouds and haunted by ghosts was asking a Taoist priest for help.

The Taoist handed the whisk to the young man, and asked the young man to go back and hang the whisk on the door, and said: "This ghost is pitiful, I can't bear to kill her, just scare her and drive her away."

The young man took the whisk and left.

Chen Xi stepped forward under the guise, and asked the priest: "That is an evil ghost that can eat people, why do fellow Taoists feel sorry for her?"

The Taoist returned the salute and looked at Chen Xi, "She was originally a concubine of a rich family, but she was burned alive by a big woman. She became a ghost and was like charred coal. She could only move about in someone else's skin."

Chen Xi asked again: "Those people whose skins she borrowed can still live?"

"Of course not." The Taoist looked at Chen Xi like a fool.

Chen Xi asked again: "I heard that the human skin on the Painted Skin Ghost needs to be replaced every three to five months. I wonder if it's true or not?"

The Taoist nodded and said, "Almost, if the Yin Qi is too heavy, it needs to be replaced in a month or two."

Chen Xi stared into the Taoist priest's eyes and asked, "Aren't those people who are murdered by evil spirits pitiful?"

The Taoist priest had a feeling of being watched by the master, and felt guilty for no reason, and said: "They are all fireworks girls, it is more pitiful to be alive, it is better to die."

Chen Xi shook his head in disappointment.

The Taoist said again: "At the beginning, when I saw that scholar was haunted by evil spirits, I wanted to save him, but he tried his best to justify himself and refused to admit it. Now if you come back and beg me, if you don't teach him a little lesson, you will not be able to show the majesty of my Taoism."

"The majesty of the Taoist sect does not need to be exchanged for human life." Chen Xi turned and walked into the city.

The Taoist got rid of the strange feeling, and became angry from embarrassment: "Which fairy mountain did the Taoist brother practice? Just came down the mountain? This world is more complicated than the mountain. If you see evil spirits, you will kill them. If you see evil spirits, you will kill them. Then you don't need to practice. Choppers are too busy to win in the daytime.”

Chen Xi stopped and turned around.

The Taoist retreated nervously, "What are you doing?"

"Since you like to practice, I will send you to a place where you can concentrate on practicing." Chen Xi tore off the small gourd pendant from his waist and threw it away. The small gourd the size of a thumb swelled a hundred times, and golden light shot out from the mouth of the gourd, covering the Taoist priest.

"Ah!" The Taoist priest disappeared.

Chen Xi followed the breath of the Taoist whisk and came to a mansion.

"Wangfu."

At this time, night fell, and the gate of the palace was locked.

Chen Xi was not in a hurry, sat down on the steps, took out the crystal lamp to illuminate, and shared with Mo Xuan to eat dried plum and vegetable pancakes.

There was an old man on the street who was in a hurry to go home to celebrate his wife's birthday, with strings of red bubbles on his head, Chen Xi was touched by seeing it, and bought the last few sesame seed cakes so that the old man could go home early.

The biscuits were a bit cold, Chen Xi warmed them up with the palm of his hand, and then handed them to Mo Xuan.

"Taste the noodles that have been kneaded by love for 50 years."

Mo Xuan didn't think the steps were dirty, so he sat next to Chen Xi.

The shoulders of the two were next to each other, as if biscuits were a peerless delicacy, and they exchanged opinions from time to time.

Mo Xuan took out some spiritual fruits, twisted them into juice, and put them in crystal cups. There are several colors of red, orange, yellow, and green. You have a taste and I will try to guess the year and nature of the growth of the spiritual fruit.

After eating, Chen Xi took out the conditioning rules of Xichen Palace, and Mo Xuan continued to carve his crystal.

The night was getting dark, and it was early morning.

"what--"

There were screams in the mansion.

Mo Xuan's figure disappeared into the void, Chen Xi patted the dust and got up holding the crystal lamp.

The evil ghost dressed in a beauty's skin came out through the door, holding a beating heart in his hand, seeing the lantern that Chen Xi was carrying, the heart slipped to his mouth.

"Changqing Taoist!"

Painted Skin Ghost screamed, and suddenly burrowed back, but it was not as fast as closing the demon gourd.

Chen Xi used the cover to catch the fallen heart, and the gourd automatically shrunk and hung back to his waist.

"Another spirit stone."

As Chen Xi said, he looked up at the sky, before he could speak, a golden light of merit fluttered down.

Tiandao became more and more conscious.

Chen Xi knocked on the door with a pretense, and shouted loudly: "Bringing back to life, once!"

The voice came into the mansion.

Soon, the noise of footsteps was getting closer and closer, the door opened with a "squeak", and a woman in disheveled clothes appeared surrounded by maids and servants, and knelt down with a "plop".

"Daoist, there is a ghost. The ghost killed my husband. Daoist, help me..."

Carrying the crystal lamp, Chen Xi stepped into the gate and said to everyone, "The evil spirits have been eliminated, and the impoverished people are here to save people."

The crystal lamp is brighter than the bright moon in the sky, exuding a soft orange light, reflecting the young and gentle smile of the Taoist priest, and the minds of the people who were still in shock gradually calmed down.

In the inner courtyard, Wang Sheng was lying on the bed, his chest was cut open, and blood flowed all over the bed.

Chen Xi performed a purification technique, allowing the woman to put the human heart back into Wang Sheng's body.

The whisk waved, the holy light fell, the blood flowed back, and the wound closed.

Wang Sheng opened his eyes, hugged his wife and wept bitterly, and vowed that he would never be greedy for beauty in the future, and would never accept two sexes in his life.

This is the truth.

When Chen Xi was purifying, he also eliminated Wang Sheng's lust, so that even if a female ghost came to pester him again, he would not be tempted/tempted.

The two couples thanked Chen Xi, and brought him back to life as a reward, hundreds of taels of gold and a box of gold jewelry, the total amount was about a thousand taels.

Chen Xi shook the clean and new cover, and held the crystal lamp to illuminate the words on it.

"The daughter I'm talking about is this catty."

Everyone looked carefully, and found that the word "one hexagram of a thousand gold" was not "gold", but a "jin" of two catties, and their heads were stunned.

Chen Xi walked outside the door, and pointed at the rockery in the yard under pretense, "Bring me a thousand catties of rocks."

Everyone asked in disbelief, "Stone?"

Chen Xi nodded: "Yes, stones. You carry them yourself."

A thousand catties of stones are not many, but they are not light either. The two couples rolled and lifted, picked eight big stones and sent them to Chen Xi, sweating profusely and panting.

"enough."

Chen Xi put the stone into the storage bag, nodded to everyone, turned and left.

"Daoist Chang Qing, breakfast is ready, let's go after eating..." Wang Sheng chased after him to persuade him to stay.

But the young Taoist shook his cover, chanted strange formulas, and disappeared at the end of the street in a few steps under the rising sun.

The servants of the Wang family talked about what happened last night to the neighbors, and they recited the song of good fortune and ascension to the spirit.

The gejue is a bit of a mouthful when you read it for the first time, but it becomes catchy when you read it a few times, and it can clear your mind, relieve fatigue, and some people say it can exorcise evil spirits and strengthen courage.

Some cultivators discovered that this is a formula for refining qi.

"Changqing Daoist is really a strange person!"

Chen Xi came from the north of the city to the south of the city.

In late summer and early autumn, the heat is still there.

At noon, people come and go in a hurry.Under the shade of the tree, a snake raiser is performing a snake charmer. Although there are only a few boys around, the snake raiser is still performing with a smile on his face.

Two green snakes, one big and one small, danced with the movements of the snake breeder. The big snake with red dots on its head could count and draw pictures on the sand with its tail.

Chen Xi stopped to watch, and whispered to Mo Xuan next to him: "If you encounter a world where superpowers are prohibited by law, I will follow their example and take you to the street to perform."

Mo Xuan thought for a while and said, "If I can tie a wishful knot with my tail and then untie it myself, I'm sure I'll earn more than them, so I won't make you hungry."

The two seriously discussed what would be more profitable to perform, and whether they should blow flute to make music, as if they were looking forward to such a future.

The big snake performing in front hissed and stuck out its tongue, and swam out of the circle drawn by the snake breeder.

"Erqing, Erqing, don't be scary."

The snake named Er Qing ignored the call of the snake breeder, swam to Chen Xi's feet, leaned over and nodded three times.

"Spirituality is good." Chen Xi squatted down and asked Er Qing: "Do you want to practice with me?"

Erqing nodded and swam back again, as if reluctant to part with his companion.

The snake keeper looked distressed, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go. You're already grown up, and I can't bear you. If you practice well in the future and become a spirit, don't be a cannibal. from God's punishment."

The little green snake swam to Erqing's side, reluctant to let go.

Chen Xi laughed, looked at the snake breeder, and said: "I see that you have no parents, no wife and children, and you are alone. Why don't you go up the mountain with the snake to practice. Even if you can't practice, you can still do some chores such as cooking fire and cooking. , play with Erqing and the others in your spare time. Someone will take care of you in the future, it’s better than earning a living in the sun and rain.”

The snake breeder rubbed his hands, "Don't make fun of the old man, Daoist, such a beautiful thing, I dare not even dream about it."

Chen Xi only asked: "Are you willing? If you are willing, I will send you to the dojo in the mountains."

Er Qing bit the snake breeder's sleeve and tugged hard.

"Yes, yes." The snake breeder nodded repeatedly, hurriedly packed up his things, and distributed a few copper coins on the ground to the children around him, "Sorry, sorry, there is no show, take it to buy candy."

Chen Xi took a photo of the gourd on his waist.The gourd's light flashed, and the two snakes disappeared in place.The people around him did their own thing, and they didn't respond to it, subconsciously ignoring the abnormality.

Jinhua, Xichen Dojo.

The disciples guarding the teleportation formation discovered that the formation was working, and they were ready to take action.

The coolie demons and ghosts sent back by the gods have everything, and everyone will never guess what will be sent next.

Evil spirit?Fiend?Gorefiend?evil ways?Ghost?Or a flower demon?Or is it bad?mountain god?

Whoever can guess the next one is worth showing off for a long time.

This time it's...

An old man with no cultivation, and two green snakes.

"The gods don't even spare mortals?"

"Heart light is not bad, but the aptitude is not as good as the snake next to him. Is the teacher so picky about his students?"

The snake breeder looked at the crystal palace in the sky, rubbed his eyes, and his jaw was about to dislocate.

"Xian, Xiangong...Erqing, Xiaoqing, we met a fairy!"

Chen Xi never stayed in one place for long.

The main reason is that it is too bizarre to give a thousand catties of stones for a fortune-telling, which often causes a sensation.Stay in each city for a maximum of two or three days, and wait for the reputation of Yiguaqianjin to spread, then go to other cities, and don't forget to pass on the formula of fortune and ascension before leaving.

In a world where demons and ghosts are rampant, ordinary people rarely travel far away from home, and the spread of news is limited.But among the merchants and aristocratic families, Daoist Changqing's reputation is not small; and in the world of demons and ghosts, Daoist Changqing is even more famous.

The Taoist priest who held the crystal lamp at night has become an evil spirit that countless ghosts can't avoid.

Chen Xi suspects that the ghost world has a communication channel similar to the Internet, and the news flow is extremely fast.As a result, if he only relied on luck, he might not encounter evil spirits or monsters for a few days.

The spirit vision swept across, and many monsters and dark forces were quickly moving away on the road ahead.

"Am I so scary?" Chen Xi couldn't help asking Mo Xuan.

"You look good." Mo Xuan kissed his forehead.

Chen Xi also felt that he had good looks, so he stepped on his feet and covered tens of miles in one step, and happened to stop in front of a rushing monster.

The handsome young man was driving with a few beautiful women, and when he saw a Taoist blocking the road ahead, he flicked his whip with cold eyes.

The long whip turned into a long snake in the air, and opened its mouth wide, trying to swallow Chen Xi.

"One, a hexagram is a thousand catties!" Someone screamed in the car: "Master Hai, be careful! It's Taoist Changqing!"

Chen Xi slapped it under cover, and the snake flew back backwards and hit the carriage.

The carriage shattered, and seven or eight people rolled out of it, both men and women, all beautiful and young.

Chen Xi planted the cover on the ground, skillfully raised the barrier, and looked at the panicked monsters.

"I don't eat wild animals, and I don't eat intelligent creatures. What are you afraid of?"

The monsters trembled, some rolled their eyes, fainted, and turned into prototypes.

They are all snakes.

Mr. Hai opened his mouth to inhale, and then spewed out a violent bloody rain, blowing sand and stones away.

"The tone is too heavy, how many people did you eat?"

With a flick of Chen Xi's whisk, he stuffed all the bloody wind, blood, rain, flying sand, and rocks back.

Mr. Hai's mouth was blocked, and he swelled bigger than his face. He choked out his original form and turned into a giant snake rolling on the ground.

Chen Xi looked at the beauties with pale faces.

"I'm curious, how did you know I'm here?"

The main route he was moving forward was towards Mount Hua, but his left and right jumps were not regular, and he was sure that his method of restraining his breath would never be seen as abnormal by looking at his breath from a distance.

"Fan," said a beauty who was so frightened that she turned into bones, and the bones clicked and clicked: "Master Hai can know a lot of news from the Yin and Yang realms through the fan."

Mr. Hai's stomach swelled and squirmed, and the contents of his stomach were squeezed out, spraying at Chen Xi, and at the same time flicking the snake's tail, slapping at the concubine who betrayed him.

too disgusting!

As soon as Chen Xi frowned, Mo Xuan suddenly raised his hand and slapped, Long Yuan condensed into a big slap, and smashed Mr. Hai and the dirt he spewed into the deep pit.

The remaining little demons were suppressed by Long Wei, and they all turned into prototypes. Besides snakes, there were also bones and mandrills.

Chen Xi sent Mr. Hai's concubines to the Xichen Dojo, beckoning to attract heavy rain and wash away the giant snake in the deep pit.The spiritual power was condensed into a big hand, and he grabbed Mr. Hai Qicun and swiped it in the water before he pulled it out.

"fan."

Mr. Hai was dying, and he ordered and moved one by one. The scales on the back of his head opened, and a folding fan fell down with a clatter.

Chen Xi opened the folding fan with a hand transformed by spiritual power.

The fan is a picture of misty rain in apricot blossoms, and under the tree there is a beauty sleeping with a pillow of falling flowers.With the folding fan fully unfolded, the beauty got up lazily and blessed her body outward.

"What does the guest want to ask?"

Chen Xi beckoned, and took the folding fan in his hand to examine it carefully.

The fan bones are just ordinary jade, and the problematic part is the fan surface.

The beauty on the fan is a ray of demon soul. Chen Xi follows the connection between the demon soul and the main body, traces it thousands of miles away, and encounters a layer of space barrier, which can prevent the invasion of strange spiritual thoughts.

Chen Xi simulated Mr. Hai's spiritual fluctuations, and when he entered the fan, there was an extra hole in the apricot tree in the painting.The tree hole is a door, and after passing through, a mountain full of flowers appears.

There are heavy buildings, halls, pavilions, pavilions and pavilions in the mountains, which are extremely luxurious. There are big monsters coming and going in the wind, and there are immortals driving in and out of the sky... The spirit of monsters and ghosts is mixed with the spirit of fairy spirits, coupled with the mortal world that cannot be dispelled. [-]/ The qi of desire makes people want to get drunk.

"Master Hai!" Xing Yao bowed to Chen Xi, and hurriedly asked: "Have you stayed away from Taoist Changqing? Anyone who falls into the gourd of Taoist Changqing will not even be able to fall into the hell, please be careful."

Xing Yao's eyes were affectionate, and they were full of worry.But this is just an appearance, because the aura of Xing Yao is very calm, like a pool of stagnant water, showing no signs of emotion.

Chen Xi hummed, avoiding Xing Yao's leaning body, and asked, "What's the news recently?"
