Through [Bloody Memories], Yin Xiu extracted two memories about the Qi Refiner from the memory of the Sophora Tree Spirit.
At least more than half a month ago, these mysterious Qi refiners were still active in that Taoist temple, but just like Yin Xiu at the beginning, no one noticed the locust tree that hid his aura.
One "night", the locust tree finally took action and sucked all the qigong masters into human beings, leaving no one behind.
This is the first memory, and the second memory is outside the Taoist temple.
Those Qi refiners stood on the bamboo rafts with lanterns, like boatmen carrying lanterns for fishing at night, staring at this ancient Taoist temple that had been occupied by the Sophora japonica tree spirits from a distance, their eyes full of indignation.
The Sophora japonica tree spirit was also on the top of the Taoist temple, observing these Qi refiners through countless "eyes" built by countless roots.
At the same time, the roots hidden under the water became "ears", transmitting their conversation to the Sophora Tree Spirit word for word.
"Blessings and births are unified, and the heart net is bodhi."
"None of them came back alive. The tree demon sucked all their blood. The noble bodies of us Qi Refiners became the nourishment of the despicable tree demon."
"No, we are not noble. We Qi Refiners are the same as those mediocre people on the ground. In other words, we are more humble than them, because we live underground, accompanying moles and pangolins all year round. No daylight.
And our goals are too illusory even for our own people.
People on earth are mediocre, and their lives are rough and ordinary, but their goals are real, such as getting promoted, buying a house, getting married and having children, not to mention the possibilities, but those things are indeed foreseeable. .
As for the fairy mountain we are looking for, we still don’t know where it is. "
After a long sigh, a serious voice immediately sounded.
"Why, you don't believe the prophecies of the elders and my mother?"
"Blessings and births are united, Heart Network Bodhi! How could I question my mother? I just expressed some of my confusions. Didn't the elders also say it? If you have any myths, you should tell them in time to avoid being taken away by the demons from outside the territory."
"Okay, okay! Soon your myth will no longer exist, because we have found a master Kanyu, who is much more powerful than all our previous helpers. With him, the fairy mountain will no longer exist. It is an illusory existence.”
The man wanted to say something more, but the Sophora japonica tree spirit had already stirred the lake surface. Countless roots emerged from the water, stirring up water waves and making the bamboo rafts sway up and down.
"Let's go! The tree demon is demonstrating against us."
"Then we won't take revenge?"
"Compared to Fairy Mountain, nothing else is important, including you and me. Don't waste time here."
The man who spoke seemed to be the leader of this group of people. With a wave of his hand, the bamboo rafts on the lake began to recede in the "sight" of the Sophora japonica tree spirit, and disappeared into the darkness...
After reading the two memories, Yin Xiu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
This locust tree spirit was so impatient that he was like a starving ghost, wishing to eat all the living creatures passing by.
Probably because of this experience, its patience had to "grow" some, so that it did not start hunting until Yin Xiu and Fang Yin entered the Taoist temple.
But Yin Xiu couldn't help but miss some information because of his impatience with the Qi Practitioners.
For example, how tall is the "Kanyu master" that the Qigong practitioners call him? Is he as tall as a stall on Temple Street, or as tall as an office in Central? Yin Xiu hoped it was the latter. Coupled with a series of recent events, Yin Xiu had a vague feeling that Liu Banxian might actually be in the hands of those Qi refiners.
This is of course the best result, he is alive and kicking.
But if he was brainwashed by those Qi refiners and fantasized about the existence of fairy mountains every day and became hysterical, then Yin Xiu would be in trouble because he was not a psychiatrist.
Liu Banxian couldn't be sick, so Yin Xiu simply rolled up his sleeves and gave him a big slap in the face.
"Asshole! What have you done!?"
If he really does this, I don't know whether my uncle will fight with him or not. I'm afraid God won't be able to bear it and a thunderbolt will come down and kill him.
Anyway, everything has to be found now after finding Liu Banxian. After all, no one can guarantee whether he is standing or lying down at this time.
"It is true that the two hidden dragons nourished it, otherwise this locust tree demon would not have grown so big and would not have so much strength to become a demon."
Ma Xiaoyu took the branch that Yin Xiu brought back in her hand, looked at it again and again, and even sniffed it with her nose.
For the Ma family Celestial Masters, the inspiration that exists in their bones allows them to roughly feel the power and origin of the original owner just by touching a stump of a limb.
"How about you take this branch back as a souvenir?" Yin Xiu asked.
"To commemorate what?"
"To commemorate my single-handedly killing a thousand-year-old monster, keep this branch as a family heirloom." Yin Xiu grinned at her.
"Family heirloom? I'm afraid I might accidentally use it to start a fire while having a barbecue one day."
Ma Xiaoyu threw it away casually, and the branch drifted away and was carried away by the current, falling into a deep stream on one side and disappearing without a trace.
Yin Xiu couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the scattered splashes left on the water.
Rowe slept at the end of the raft from beginning to end, covering his face with his hat and saying nothing.
Hearing the noise, he took off the corner of his hat and said to Yin Xiu: "It doesn't matter. With your brother's qualifications, you will definitely have the opportunity to fight stronger monsters in the future. Then you can leave some decent souvenirs."
Yin Xiu glanced at him, "Are you praising me or cursing me?"
Luo Wei grinned, "Don't judge others by yourself. Why should I curse you when you're so good?"
"You better be." Yin Xiu glanced at him again. "boring."
Luo Wei covered his hat and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
After the boat sailed out of the tunnel and reached the wider underground water area, Yin Xiu handed a route map to the boatman.
"Brother, go to [Diaotai], we know the way."
This time the boatman was not the same person as before, but he was also pale and taciturn.
After taking a look at the route map, he unexpectedly spoke.
"There are a lot of fishing lines there. The last time a customer went there, he stretched his hand into the water and when he took it out, four fingers were missing."
Luo Wei couldn't help but take a breath of cold air and moved his body to the middle of the bamboo raft.
"Then he only has one thumb left?"
The boatman shook his head, "That's because the guest only has four fingers."
When Luo Wei heard this, he couldn't help but shrink his hands closer to his body.
Seeing this, Yin Xiu bent down and said to Luo Wei, "What are you afraid of? The last time I saw that bastard Masahito Yamamoto, his hands were blown up like popcorn. Didn't they grow back in the blink of an eye?"
"How do you know so clearly?" Luo Wei asked.
"Because I was the one who blew it up. How can I not be clear about it?"
"Okay! Don't tell me to catch you yet!"
Luo Wei got up immediately, "Did you admit it just now? You are one of the main culprits in that great storm. The death of Yamamoto Masahito and a group of people, as well as numerous murders, were all caused by you!"
Yin Xiu rolled her eyes and said, "I just said it casually. Do you have any witnesses or evidence?"
"Yes!" Ma Xiaoyu raised her hand, "I can prove that he did it."
"Okay, let's wait for this..."
Before Luo Wei finished speaking, Yin Xiu covered his mouth, and his words suddenly stopped.
It wasn't until Yin Xiu let go of his hand again that Luo Wei looked at him, "What, you want to kill someone and silence them?"
Yin Xiu shook her head and smiled bitterly, "No matter what, please don't say what you want [when the matter is over]. I always feel that every time you say this, something bad will happen to us."
Just as Luo Wei was about to refute, he was stunned. Then he realized that it was indeed the case and quickly slapped his mouth several times.
"Bah, bah, bah, childish words!"
Yin Xiu was quite speechless, "Why, you changed your name to Yamamoto Luo Wei? It's just a carrot head that died. Why are you so nervous?"
"Well……"
Luo Wei touched his chin, "It seems so. A Japanese dwarf mule is dead when it dies. It seems that it really has nothing to do with me."
Thinking of this, he said to Ma Xiaoyu: "Miss Ma, I won't bother you anymore."
"It's okay." Ma Xiaoyu glanced at Yin Xiu again intentionally or unintentionally, "About him, if you have any criminal facts you want to know, you can come to me to record a confession at any time. I know everything."
"..."
Seeing that the three of them had finally finished arguing, the boatman rarely spoke again.
“[Diaotai] is equivalent to an endless seafood market. What is available on the ground is available there, and what is not available on the ground is also available there.
I often heard that some people caught hundreds of kilograms of grouper and two-headed moray eels there, which are water monkeys. Some people also caught them, but they ran away, jumped into the water, and disappeared immediately. No trace.
The fisherman who lost the water monkey was found dead on the shore the next day, with several turns of fishing line wrapped around his neck, and his skin was strangled. "
Luo Wei's eyes widened, "You didn't report...ah, no, there is no police station here. What did you do with the body afterwards?"
The boatman shook his head, "It's not [you], it's [them]. I'm just a punter. These things have nothing to do with me."
"As for what they will do? If no one claims them, most of the time these bodies are unclaimed. They will probably just throw the bodies down to make a nest."
As he said that, he glanced at Luo Wei again, "Sir, do you often fish too?"
Luo Wei shook his head repeatedly, "I don't fish much."
"That's a pity. I think you are a person who can endure loneliness." The boatman sighed.
Yin Xiu looked at the boatman and asked, "Did you just get off the ground?"
The boatman shook his head, "I can't remember clearly, but I think it was more than three years ago."
"I don't mean to offend, but you seem to be talking a lot?"
The boatman actually smiled shyly.
"Sir, the reason why I say so much is mainly to remind you that if you go to [Diaotai], you have to pay extra." (End of Chapter)
