Chapter 16 Exorcism

"Wow"!

"Squeak squeak"!

......

The barking of the dog is intertwined with the scream of the monkey, echoing on the big bamboo peak of Qingyun Mountain, breaking the tranquility here. Zhang Xiaofan rushed out of the kitchen door with the black fire stick in his hand and said angrily, "Dead dog! Dead monkey! Don't run away!"

The monkey Xiaohui jumped on the back of the rhubarb dog. The already powerful rhubarb spread his feet and ran away. Zhang Xiaofan couldn't catch up with him. He watched Xiaohui make a grimace and put a fragrant meat bone into the rhubarb's mouth. Rhubarb was so excited that the dog's face was overjoyed. If it hadn't been for the two rows of teeth to bite the flesh and bones, I'm afraid that the dog's teeth would have fallen off.

"Wow!"

Zhang Xiaofan looked depressed and walked back to the kitchen indignantly. Since he was in charge of the kitchen when he was fourteen years old, his craftsmanship has impressed everyone, and rhubarb, with its Taoism of "old dog", can't help salivating the delicious food in Zhang Xiaofan's hand, especially the meat bones used by Zhang Xiaofan to make soup, which is fragrant and delicious, and it is a big meal that

However, Zhang Xiaofan's soup is for people to drink. Although the rhubarb "age" is old (Tian is not easy to raise from a young age), he is more qualified, but he can't get the proper treatment, and he often covets three feet but can't get it. Until it was familiar with the monkey Xiaohui, the scene above often appeared on Dazhufeng, which lasted for two years, allowing Zhang Xiaofan to hide the meat bones. As long as there was a rhubarb nose and the flexibility of Xiaohui, this battle between meat bones often ended with Zhang Xiaofan's defeat.

Two years passed in a hurry. In fact, it was just a year and a half. Zhang Xiaofan has grown into a 16-year-old teenager. He is taller and now half a head taller than his senior sister Tian Linger. During this period, because of Tian Buyi's strict order at the beginning, all the disciples on Dazhufeng were closed-door to practice. Except for Lao Liu Du Bishu, who traveled down the mountain, only Zhang Xiaofan, the chef, was the most leisurely.

In the past two years, Zhang Xiaofan has been practicing alone without anyone's attention, but what he doesn't believe is that according to the formula taught to him by his elder brother Song Dayen, he seems to have completed the second layer of Yuqing Realm - Qi Refining in only one year.

He was suspicious, but he didn't ask Tian Buyi after all. Song Daren, Tian Linger and others had been concentizing on studying behind closed doors and had no time to take care of his affairs. He and his best Du Bishu went down the mountain again, so he only hid this question in his heart. But next, there was a big difficulty in front of him. Tian Linger privately gave him the third level of the formula. He knew very well that this was a big foul. However, in the middle of the night, when he stood alone in the courtyard and looked up at the night sky, he would think of a sentence:

No matter how much you practice, it's not Qi Hao's!

After ten nights, he began to practice the formula of the third level!

In the Taiji Xuanqing Road, the first to third layers of Yuqing Realm are the foundation of all magic methods, and the difficulty is also deepening. What is different from the first two layers of "inducing Qi" and " refining Qi" is that the third layer of the formula "Yuanqi" has focused on the cultivation of Taiji vitality. The formula cloud: "Taiji vitality, letter three is one. Extreme, Zhongye; Yuan, Shiye, walk on the twelfth day... This yin and yang is in virtue, Qi Zhong is in the son, and everything is also born. Note: "Han Shu · Lv Li Zhi")

When the disciples of Qingyunmen practice to this realm, they will obviously show a watershed, and their qualifications are clear at a glance: intelligent people are often like broken bamboo, breaking through and enter a higher realm of "driving objects" in one fell swoop, and from then on, they will lay a solid foundation for the cultivation of The disciples often stagnated, and there are many people who waste their lives.

Zhang Xiaofan has been in the beginning for five years. Naturally, these things have been heard countless times during the conversation with his brothers, but it is obvious that all the brothers have put him in the category of "slightly worse".

He walked back to the kitchen, came to the stove, filled it with water, and then continued to add firewood to the stove to prepare to boil some boiling water. The bright yellow flame flourished again. Zhang Xiaofan took his pitiful black "fire stick" that had been used for two years and fiddled with the firewood in the stove. After the fire burned steadily, his eyes slowly fell on the fire stick in his hand.

But it's not something he found, but a very common thing - he was in a daze.

In addition to the round bead on the head, the whole black fire stick is only one foot long. The only abnormality is that it is under the black fire stick, which has a blood-like vein, especially at the interface between the short stick and the ball. Sometimes it almost makes people feel that these two things seem to be using people. The blood is welded together.

Zhang Xiaofan's whole body suddenly trembled, and the idea of human blood welding flashed in his mind just now made him feel sick. Over the years, he has slowly forgotten the trip to the valley in those years. He only occasionally dreamed back late at night, but he suddenly dreamed of that strange experience and woke up in a sweat.

At that time, he felt very lonely, facing the unknown ferocity alone and the dark death alone. At this time, it is always difficult for him to suppress his inexplicable emotional excitement. With a trace of fanatical impulse, he can't help but feel the feeling of killing. Even in the dark, he recalled that many years ago, Monk Puzhi looked at the strange fanaticism in his eyes on the edge of the broken grass temple!

Zhang Xiaofan doesn't know why he has such a strange feeling, but fortunately, he has another way to calm his creepy heart: Dafan Banruo!

This set of Buddhist supreme formulas has the wonderful use of suppressing evil spirits and clearing the state of mind. He has practiced for five years, and the biggest use is to suppress the strange emotions that have appeared inexplicably in the past two years.

"Bang"!

Zhang Xiaofan had a pain in his head, and something fell to the ground, but it was a pine cone. Zhang Xiaofan was angry and turned back angrily and said, "Dead monkey, don't let me catch it... Oh, you are... Ah! Sixth brother!"

Zhang Xiaofan jumped up and saw a man standing at the door, with a medium height, a capable face, a smile, and a small bag on his back. Who is Lao Liu Du Bishu, who he hasn't seen for a long time?

Du Bishu looked up and down at Zhang Xiaofan and said, "Awesome, you are as tall as me in just a few years."

Zhang Xiaofan walked up quickly, grabbed Du Bishu's shoulder hard, and said with a smile, "Sixth brother, why did you go for so long? We all miss you very much."

Du Bishu smiled and said, "Aren't I back?"

Zhang Xiaofan then asked, "Does the master know that you are back?"

Du Bishu said, "No, I just came back and saw that there was smoke in the kitchen here, so I came to have a look first. Ha ha, I knew you were working here. I haven't seen you for a few years. Do you miss me?

Zhang Xiaofan was happy and nodded repeatedly. Du Bishu touched his head and suddenly whispered, "Let's go, accompany me to see the master."

Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment and said, "Why do you want me to go with you?"

Du Bishu said with a bitter face, "Master asked me to go down the mountain and agreed that it would be limited to one year, but I played more. Er, no, I spent another half a year looking for good materials to refine magic weapons. I was afraid that I would be scolded by the master. Go with me."

Zhang Xiaofan stared at him and said, "Then you said you would come to see me first. Come by the way, Sixth Brother, what kind of magic weapon are you refining?"

Du Bishu smiled and said, "Ha ha, of course I came to see you first, little brother, let's go, let's go." With that, he pulled Zhang Xiaofan and left.

After a while, the rhubarb, who was hiding in a corner, gnawing on meat bones, and the little ash leaning against its back to catch lice. At the same time, they all heard a roar from Shoujingtang: "Unworthy people, I'm so angry!"

At dinner, Dazhufeng and others had a reunion for the first time in the past two years, sitting at a table to eat. When everyone sat down, Tian Buyi was still angry. After greeting Du Bishu, the disciples couldn't help asking him quietly, "Lao Liu, why did Master get so angry when he saw you?"

Du Bi was embarrassed in writing. He looked at him from left to right, while Zhang Xiaofan, who was sitting next to him, had a smile on his face, but he didn't dare to laugh, and he looked quite strange.

At this time, Tian Linger, who was sitting opposite, finally couldn't help it. She was the first to ask Tian Buyi, "Dad, the sixth brother finally came back. Why are you so angry?"

Du Bishu quietly raised his eyes and looked at Tian Buyi. Tian Buyi stared at him, which scared Du Bishu and quickly lowered his head. Tian Buyi snorted and said, "Lao Liu, show your own magic weapon to everyone?"

Du Bishu opened his mouth and couldn't say it. He raised his eyes to Master Su Ru, but saw Su Ru smile and said, "Bishu, just take it out for everyone to see, and let everyone know why your master is angry?"

Seeing that Du Bishu couldn't delay, he took his small bag, shook it twice, took out a few things from the middle and put them on the table.

Everyone stared straight at each other without blinking, for fear of missing something. In the dining room, it was extremely quiet for a while. On the dining table, there are three things half the size of a fist that seem to be made of some hard wood, six squares, all white, and various points carved on it, but they are three dice.

Everyone was dumb, speechless, and laughed loudly after a moment.

Du Bishu's face turned red. Tian Buyi looked at him with an angry face and said angrily, "The rotten wood can't be carved!"

Su Ru shook her head with a smile and said, "Forget it, it's not a big deal. Let's have dice. Anyway, this magic weapon is used by himself."

Tian Buyi stared at his apprentice and said to Su Ru, "How do you know that he didn't use this to cheat?"

Du Bishu was shocked and quickly said, "Master, Master, I will never dare to do this shameless thing. It's just that a thousand-year-old three-bead tree was found on the bank of the red water in the south a year ago (Note 1). It was very aura. I took its essence and carved these three dice. It was completely on a whim, and I never thought of anything else..."

Tian Buyi was so angry and said, "You're happy, hum, it's okay for you to practice other things. Now you have a gambler, and wait until the seven veins will be tested in a month. Do I still have the face when you appear on the stage?"

Du Bishu didn't dare to say any more. Su Ru shook her head and whispered, "It's not easy. This is what he likes. Don't force him. Do you still remember Brother Wan..."

Tian Buyi was suddenly shocked and turned his head to look at Su Ru. Su Ru sighed and said to Du Bishu, "Bishu, you know, your master and I have never forced you to practice fairy swords like other brothers, but the magic weapons often have a lot to do with it. You should be careful."

Du Bishu secretly glanced at Tian Buyi, but saw that the master's face was unhappy and he was sulking. How dare he say more? He nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes."

Su Ru glanced at her husband again, and then said to everyone, "Time flies. Next month, it will be the seven-vein martial arts test. At that time, we will go to Tongtianfeng, where Changmen is located. You can prepare early." Speaking of this, her beautiful and gentle face suddenly became solemn and said quickly, "Don't let me and your master down again this time, okay?"

The disciples' hearts beat and said in unison, "Yes!"

"Teacher, Master's wife." Mixed with everyone's loud answer, an uncoordinated faint voice came out. Su Ru looked at it and saw the last seven Zhang Xiaofan. She frowned and said, "What's the matter, Xiaofan?"

Zhang Xiaofan said carefully, "So did you mean that I'm going too?"

Su Ru was stunned and glanced at Tian Buyi. A smile appeared on her face and said with a smile, "Yes, aren't you also a disciple of Dazhufeng?"

Zhang Xiaofan was overjoyed, cheered, and clapped his hands with Du Bishu next to him. Regardless of Tian Buyi, he said coldly in the distance, "Anyway, there are nine places. Even if you give one to an idiot, you still waste one. Don't waste one."

※※※

At night, Zhang Xiaofan returned to the room and saw that Rhubarb and Xiaohui had already run to his ** to rest. From a year and a half ago, Rhubarb also moved to Zhang Xiaofan's room to sleep because he was getting better with Xiaohui. At the beginning, he scared Tian Buyi and couldn't find his dog everywhere. Finally, when he knew the reason, he snorted and walked away without saying anything. Seeing that the master did not blame, Zhang Xiao A bed with rhubarb accounts for half, and Xiaohui accounts for half of it, so you can know the mood of the owner of the house).

But after a long time, he was probably used to it and mature. Zhang Xiaofan no longer complained about rhubarb and Xiaohui sleeping with him. That night, he was in a very good mood. He walked into the room and sat at the table. When he glanced, he saw Rhubarb lying lazily, but Xiaohui didn't The fire stick was stolen again and rubbed on the rhubarb.

His heart moved, and he faintly felt that Xiaohui seemed to be very interested in this fire-burning stick, but he was not in the mood to think so much now. His heart was completely filled with the joy of his master's surprise allowing him to participate in the Seven Veins Martial Arts.

If Rhubarb and Xiaohui look at Zhang Xiaofan at this time, they will see a human with shining eyes. Zhang Xiaofan looked at the monkey and the dog, but he seemed to speak to the air: "Look, it's great that I have the opportunity to participate in the Seven Veins Martial Arts. Master is really magnanimous. Even if I'm stupid, I still take me to learn more. Er, maybe I can see Jingyu at that time.

At this point, he seemed to think of something and whispered to himself, "But if you really want to compete on the stage, I'm afraid it will embarrass him. Forget it, do whatever you want. Rhubarb, Xiaohui, don't you think so?

"Squeak squeak!"

Zhang Xiaofan looked up, but saw that Xiaohui's thoughts were in the rhubarb fur. He carefully grabbed the lice and only called a few times to deal with him, and the rhubarb was even more straightforward. He even put down the ears of the two dogs and didn't look at him.

"Dead dog!" Zhang Xiaofan scolded indignantly, and suddenly his eyes darkened, but Xiaohui suddenly smashed the fire stick in his hand. He was shocked and quickly dodged. The burning stick hit the table, jumped twice and fell to the ground.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!" This time, the voice of the big yellow dog and the little gray monkey became a symphony. Zhang Xiaofan made a face at the two beasts and sat down with hatred. Somehow, Qi Hao's heroic posture on the Dazhu Peak two years ago suddenly appeared in his mind.

"The ice is condensed into a wall!" Zhang Xiaofan read in a low voice that it was okay when he didn't practice, but these days, his practice was getting deeper and deeper, but he deeply experienced the difficulty and unattainability to reach the realm of Qi Hao.

He remembered that night, Tian Linger's gentle but hot eyes next to the lights in this room!

His heart seemed to be pricked by a sharp needle at that moment.

The fire stick on the ground lay there quietly, and there was the noise of monkeys and yellow dogs next to him. Zhang Xiaofan suddenly felt that he was so similar to the fire stick. Even the fire stick fell to the ground, as if he was a little lonely in his eyes.

"Alas," he sighed and tried to imagine that he could reach that state. Then, in a completely relaxed and careless posture, for the first time in his life, the disciples of Qingyunmen did countless "repellent" movements: waved to the fire stick on the ground.

That moment seems to be forever.

Zhang Xiaofan was very normal. He was not even sad at all and prepared to accept his failure as a matter of course. Then, he saw the fire stick in the ground move.

It was so gently and slightly, as if I woke up after a long sleep, and I moved!
