Chapter 219: Secluded Life After eating and drinking, and feeling tired, I just want to sleep. Lin Jue also lay down on the bed. Before going to bed, I had a sudden thought and took out the ancient book. Two new pages were added to the ancient book. "Wow..." The art of returning wind is also known as the wind that rolls people up, the wind that horns them, and the dragon beast. It is the art of controlling the wind. Ancient books say: Fuyao is called Biao, wind and fire are called Biao, and returning wind is called Piao. It is also said: Piao is the returning wind, the wind that swirls and rises, shaped like a sheep's horn, which can roll up people and water. Beginners can control the wind with mantras, and the wind will swirl around and make a person's body unstable; when they reach a high level, they can lift others up to the sky, and can also help themselves to reach the sky; those who have achieved great success can control the wind with their thoughts, and the wind will turn into a tornado with sheep horns. When it passes through a village, it will destroy the houses and lift the tiles; when it passes through a river, it will suck water into the sky; when it passes through a forest, it will uproot and destroy trees. This is a natural disaster. When ordinary people saw it, they thought it was a dragon passing by.
Practitioners must first learn to breathe the wind and feel the wind. "Fuyao is called Biao..." Lin Jue murmured subconsciously. The little white blanket on the floor in front turned its head and stared at him with smart eyes, but didn't want to move. "Wind Return Technique... "The wind that rolls people, the wind that horns..." Tornadoes are thin at the bottom and thick at the top, and indeed look like an inverted sheep's horn, so some people call them epilepsy. Because they look like a tornado and are very powerful when they pass through, some people also regard them as a real dragon passing through, and the disaster they cause is called a dragon disaster, which is actually a natural phenomenon. This spell seems to be a more advanced spell of controlling the wind derived from calling the wind. It may require more tricks. When it is cultivated to perfection, it can become a man-made natural disaster. Lin Jue felt that he had quite a lot of insights into Feng Yidao. "Wow..." Wall technique, a method of blocking. The wall created by the spell is invisible to the naked eye. For those with low Taoism, the wall is narrow, low, thin and fragile. For those with high Taoism, the wall is strong, indestructible, broad and tall. Those with shallow attainments can form a wall by chanting incantations, but the wall is rigid and stiff; those with deep attainments can form a wall by waving their sleeves, but the wall is mysterious and flexible. When one has reached a high level of learning, one person can pass through the wall, but one person cannot; one can pass through holding one object, but one cannot; one can pass through with a pure heart, but one cannot pass through with evil thoughts; one can pass through by chanting mantras, but one cannot pass through without chanting mantras; even immortals cannot break it by brute force. "This spell..." When Lin Jue saw this page of introduction, the first thought that came to his mind was: this page and the previous page must not have been written by the same person. Then I read and thought more carefully. Still muttering to himself:
"It seems that the turtle demon sorcerer's attainments in this magic are not very deep." Fuyao was already used to this and just looked at him silently without any reaction. When this magic is practiced to a high level, it really has some of the power of gods. With a wave of the hand, a wall can be formed. One person can pass through it smoothly, while others will be stopped outside just because of their wrong thoughts. Unfortunately, the method of setting up obstacles has not been obtained. But it’s nothing to get it now, including these two spells, Lin Jue doesn’t plan to learn them for the time being. The most urgent thing right now is to improve his fighting skills so that he can defeat the Alligator King next spring, thereby eliminating harm to the people and finding the golden essence. Although these two spells have their own wonders, neither of them is designed specifically for fighting. Especially for beginners, it is difficult for them to be of much help in fighting when their attainments are not deep. But if you want to be good at fighting, you still need to specialize. The most urgent task is to carve and refine the bean soldiers, comprehend and practice the original spells, and then find time to prepare the elixir. Lin Jue planned to stay in Runze County. Because he currently has no idea where the Alligator King's cave is, nor does he know exactly when his birthday is. If he wants to be safe, he needs to get more detailed information. When it comes to fighting, intelligence is extremely important. I think this place is not far from the cave of the Alligator King. I heard from the thousand-year-old ghost on the road that when the Alligator King holds his birthday banquet, it seems that many goblins and ghosts will come from afar. Ghosts like the "Qingmiao God" should come to the banquet and pay a visit. Maybe many ghosts will pass by here at that time. At least I will be here at that time. "..." Lin Jue closed the ancient book and lay on the bed thinking. Now that he has collected enough spells, he has also found the spell that suits him. Among all the magic spells he had at that time, the most powerful one for fighting and the one he liked the most was undoubtedly the "Flower Blooms in an Instant". This spell may seem dreamy and beautiful, but in fact it is also quite powerful, and its power is almost as great as the difficulty of learning it. Perhaps even the original techniques of turning beans into soldiers and controlling objects cannot compare to it. Lin Jue should focus more on this. Secondly, practice spell-controlling for a period of time. Now controlling two to four flying swords at a time is still too few, and there is also considerable room for improvement in strength and control. In addition, he can carve beans into soldiers and tap stones into generals. “We mainly repair these four doors. “In addition, telekinesis and immobilization techniques also have unexpected auxiliary effects in fighting. Using telekinesis and the Dragon Transformation Technique together may have miraculous effects. "It would be even better if I could get the original version of the object control technique and the bean-casting technique." Lin Jue thought about this and slowly fell asleep. The next morning, downstairs of the inn.
The pavilion facing the river was transparent on two sides. Lin Jue sat by the window. There was a emerald green jade belt below him. Although he could not hear the sound of water, he could feel the cool water vapor. After a fight and a good sleep, I sit here and feel an inexplicable sense of peace and comfort. Luo Seng also came down from upstairs and sat down next to them: "Do you plan to live in the city forever, Taoist priest?" "That's not the intention." "Oh?" "It's not good to get information about the Crocodile King in the city, nor is it good for us to practice magic." Lin Jue said, "So we have to find a place to live outside the city." "That's perfect! There are many inns and hotels outside the city, and there must be some courtyard houses for rent, or we can just stay in the inn we stayed in a few days ago." Luo Seng paused and glanced around: "After I kill the county magistrate, the temple priest and the filial son, I will definitely not be able to enter the city. If I have no other place to go, I will come to you for help." "can." Lin Jue nodded. In fact, most inns these days do monthly rental business. If you only stay for one or two days, most people will choose other types of hotels. For example, traveling merchants will stay in a guesthouse, the richer ones will stay in a restaurant, and the poorer ones will stay in a thatched house or a chicken feather inn. Most of the people who stay in inns within the city are students taking exams, scholars who are away for business, and public officials. If you live longer, renting a house is a better choice. "Originally, Luo is more skilled in this matter, but this time Luo is a bit inconvenient, so you have to go find it yourself, Taoist priest." "We'll just leave an extra room for Mr. Luo." "That's great." Luo Seng nodded, and then reminded, "Remember not to leave my real name." "Of course, of course." Lin Jue thought for a moment and said, "If we find a place to stay outside the city, we will inform the waiter of the inn where we stayed a few days ago, and Mr. Luo will know the answer by asking him." "can." When the three of them settled down, breakfast was served. Gradually, several tables of other people were seated in the inn. While waiting for their meals, most of them were talking about the strange things that happened outside the city yesterday. People on the street outside seemed to be talking about it as well. The three of them showed no expression. After finishing the meal, they went their separate ways. Luo Seng stayed in the city, while his two brothers and sisters went out of the city. …… In the inn outside the city, the waiter was in a trance. Yesterday's events spread throughout Runze in one day. Not only in the city, but also in every place where there were people who believed in the Green Narcissus, people came and told the news. There is no way, this matter is really too surprising and shocking. I have heard a lot about these kinds of things about gods, demons and ghosts since I was a child, and I have also read a lot of them in books, but how many of them have actually happened around me? Even at this moment, several guests in the inn were still discussing it even though they did not go to the Xiantai yesterday. "Green Narcissus..."
"Fight..." “Firelight…” "Shrimp, crab, fish..." "monster……" Sounds kept floating into his ears. Judging from the expressions and words of these guests, it was as if they had been to the scene and witnessed it with their own eyes yesterday. But I was the one who was there. Not only that…… I know more than ordinary people. In this way, the guy will inevitably have a feeling that he is closer to the truth, that no one in the world knows but he is aware of it. He will also have a feeling that he is closer to the gods and seems to have been touched by some immortal spirit. The novel and ethereal feeling in my heart is so mysterious that it is hard to describe. But I can’t tell it to others. It's really uncomfortable to keep such a secret. "Hey, bring some tea." Suddenly, such a voice came from inside, pulling him back to the mortal world from his fairyland and trance. "okay!" The waiter responded and immediately stood up, preparing to add more tea for them, but when he glanced at them, he was suddenly stunned. At some point, two Taoists, leading a gray donkey, were slowly walking towards them from the morning mist in the distance. "This……" As soon as he lost his focus, two gods appeared in front of him. "god……" The man looked dazed, and before he could say anything, he saw the Taoist in front of him smiling and saying to him: "We want to stay outside Runze City for a while, probably until the beginning of next spring. We don't know anyone else here, so I want to ask you if there is a quiet house to rent?" "Then we need to find Fangya..." The waiter was about to ask him to go find Fang Yazi, but suddenly he changed his words and said: "It just so happens that I just built a few new houses this year, which were originally prepared for my marriage. I usually stay in inns, and when I go home, I usually go to my eldest brother's house and live with my parents. I rarely stay there. If you two gods don't mind the simplicity, you can live in my huts." "convenient?" "Convenient! Very convenient!" "Is it far from here?"
"One mile, right by the road." "..." Lin Jue and his junior sister looked at each other and thought it was very suitable, so he asked, "How much is the rent?" "Except for the gods..." The waiter paused, and quickly changed his words, "It is a blessing for me to be able to live with the gods. How dare I charge money?" "Yes." "Then the immortal will just give you whatever you want, based on the price of renting a house outside the city." "Thank you very much." Lin Jue smiled and agreed. "Hey, man!" another voice came from behind, a little impatiently, "You're only busy serving the new customers and ignoring the old ones, right?" "Come right now! Come right now!" Although the waiter said this, his feet seemed to have taken root. He stood there and said to Lin Jue unhurriedly: "I will go and add a pot of tea for them first, and then I will take the two gods over to have a look." "Thank you." The guy then walked over. After pouring a pot of tea and saying something to the shopkeeper, he took Lin Jue to his house. They were indeed a few newly built huts. Although it looks simple with mud walls and thatched roof, it was built with great care. Small but complete. Opposite the main room is a bedroom on each side, and behind the main room is the kitchen. On the left is a thatched cottage that can be used to entertain guests, and on the right is a firewood room and pigsty, with a wooden door outside. All that's missing is a bamboo fence to enclose the rooms, and then there's a farmyard. Moreover, it is neither far nor close to the official road, with only a small path of about 100 steps. After walking a few dozen steps on the official road, you will reach the prosperous village and shops outside Runze City. It has both the tranquility outside the city and the prosperity inside the city. "That's it. It's a bit crude." The guy looked at them quietly, and his attitude was much better than in the previous few days. "Your new house is very carefully built." Lin Jue liked it at first sight, and then looked at the little sister, and even the fox and cat at his feet, and then said, "We have decided to live here." "As long as the gods like it!" "Just call me Taoist priest." Lin Jue said, looking ahead, "Don't worry, we will take good care of your new house and repair the fence for you. If you like, we can also build a bamboo forest behind the house and plant a fruit tree for you in the yard." "Gods, please do as you please. If you need anything, just tell me." The waiter felt around and said, "Here is the key to the house." "it is good." There was no one else in the inn, and the waiter's cousin was in a hurry, so it was not good to stay here for long. Therefore, he went back to the inn not long after.
The two were left wandering around in the hut. The more Lin Jue looked at it, the more he liked it. In this quiet place, without heavy taxes, looking at these simple thatched huts, I could vaguely feel the feeling of the ancient people living in seclusion. The fox and the civet cat were already fighting in the yard. (End of this chapter)
