88: The world is too cold
Another friend came to the Chenghuang Temple.
This friend's name was Tian Wenxiu. He was a friend of the City God in his early years. He became a Taoist and was good at talismans and incantations. However, we hadn't seen each other for a long time, but for some reason he came to Jiuquan City today.
"Brother Qin, congratulations, congratulations!" Tian Wenxiu said.
"Brother Tian, where does this joy come from?" Qin Chenghuang asked in confusion.
"Brother Qin doesn't know yet?" Tian Wenxiu said in surprise.
"What do you know?" Qin Chenghuang asked.
"Oops!" Tian Wenxiu said with a face full of shock: "Brother Qin is the only one in this entire world who doesn't know that a secret realm is about to appear in your own city."
"Secret realm?" Qin Chenghuang asked as if he was surprised: "How can there be a secret realm in my city?"
However, he immediately thought of the Zhao Mansion where the seven righteous men of Black Wind Village now lived.
They didn't leave for a day, and Qin Chenghuang felt uneasy, and he also wanted to know what they were doing there. Originally, he was in this city, and wanted to know which house's affairs were very simple, as long as this house had the city god's tablet,
Or if you have offered incense to the City God or recited the name of the City God, he can take the opportunity to possess him and look around.
But I don’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional, all traces of the City God in the entire Zhao Mansion were cleaned up, even a small mural or a piece of ceramic with the words of praise of the City God on it were all cleaned up.
Outside the Zhao Mansion, this made it impossible for him to spy at all.
People from the Mystic Spirit Sect were inside before, and he also went to spy on it, but they almost had a conflict, so he never went to see it again.
"Oops!" Tian Wenxiu stretched out his hand and nodded at Qin Chenghuang continuously, and said: "You, you! You only want to be your city god, and you only care about the ordinary people under your rule. You can't do this, and you will be bullied by others.
I don’t know. You should pay more attention to the affairs of practitioners!”
"Alas! I want Brother Tian to know that I am devoted to cultivation and do not want to be tainted by cause and effect." Qin Chenghuang said.
"Brother Qin, what you said is wrong. Isn't this cause and effect just because you said you won't do it? Others think you are weak and easy to bully, so they deliberately tease you. You must be tougher and let everyone know that you are not a weak person.
There will be fewer people because of this." Tian Wenxiu said.
Qin Chenghuang thought to himself: "If I had acted tough, I would have been dead by now. Tian Wenxiu has not shown up for a long time, and now he encourages me to fight against that group of strong men. What is the meaning of this?"
"Brother Tian, please tell me clearly, where does this secret realm in my city come from?" Qin Chenghuang asked.
"It's in the home of a wealthy family in your city." Tian Wenxiu said: "A few days ago, many people saw two groups of people fighting over this. How could you, as a city god, not know about it?"
"Brother Tian, of course I know this. It's just that those two groups of strong men are outnumbered and powerful, and neither of them can be provoked by Brother Wei. Brother Wei, this small business, cannot withstand the torment." Qin Chenghuang said aggrievedly.
"Brother, when you say this, you don't regard me as a brother, Tian Wenxiu. You also have friends and brothers. Brother, just sit here. Brother, I will invite someone for you. If you don't say anything else, brother, I will do the rest.
Regardless of my ability, I still have many friends in these mountains and rivers," Tian Wenxiu said.
"Well, thank you very much, brother, but I still don't know where the secret realm in this city comes from?" Qin Chenghuang asked.
Tian Wenxiu didn't hide it, but took out a folding fan from his sleeve, opened it, fanned it gently, and then said: "Although my brother is the city god of Jiuquan City, I'm afraid he still doesn't know that a long time ago, there was no wind here.
It is a city in the Kingdom of Xi, but it belongs to a place called the Kingdom of Jiuquan. People in this country only need to drink water to be full, and all of them are strong, can walk as fast as flying, and can tear tigers and leopards apart."
"With such a thing happening, it's no wonder that few people in our city are sick," Qin Chenghuang said.
"However, later on, for some unknown reason, the people in Jiuquan City seemed to have been infected by the plague. Every one of them died. Even those who escaped from Jiuquan City were not spared." Tian Wenxiu said.
"I see." Qin Chenghuang said, "Is there something wrong with that secret realm?"
"Maybe it is, or maybe it is a natural disaster, but it has nothing to do with us. Now that this secret realm belongs to my brother's realm, then this thing belongs to my brother. How can we let outsiders snatch it away." Tian Wenxiu said.
"Alas!" Qin Chenghuang sighed again.
"Brother, don't worry. I'll wait for a few days and I'll come back as soon as I go." After Tian Wenxiu said that, he stood up and left.
"Brother, can't you leave without a bowl of wine?" Qin Chenghuang shouted.
"Save it for later." Tian Wenxiu's voice came from far away.
…
Today, the second boss came to the rooftop to drink and chat with Lou Jinchen.
"Second Master, I have always wanted to ask, how was this secret realm formed?" Lou Jinchen asked the Second Master.
"The formation of the secret realm is actually by summoning the 'secret demon' to come and attach it to a carrier that you have prepared. After making it come, you imprison it and seal it in a limited space.
Enter the spiritual grass and spiritual plant to make it continuously alienate."
"Moreover, if a person can practice in a secret realm that is consistent with himself, it will be of great benefit to the comprehension of magic and the growth of magic power."
Lou Jinchen suddenly understood that this secret realm was also a way to use secret spirits.
"In other words, the way the Secret Spirit Religion uses secret spirits is not new, right?" Lou Jinchen said.
"Of course, the conditions for creating a secret realm are too harsh. Not only is it necessary to summon the mysterious demon to come, it also needs to be a place where 'sperms' can be born and be able to support the changes in the secret realm. Some people say that the sperms are constantly coming.
After growing up and constantly transforming, he will also become a kind of 'secret demon', which is what the monks of Huanlong Dao strive for diligently."
"Huan Long Dao?" Lou Jinchen has never heard of this sect.
"The Way of the Dragon is a branch of the Way of the Spirit. They first raise a sperm insect into a snake, and then the snake turns into a dragon, and then the dragon turns into a dragon. When the dragon turns into a dragon, they call themselves Dragon Shepherds."
Lou Jinchen suddenly thought of Duan Runan who had followed her aunt, and wondered how she was doing in Minling Mountain.
"Do you know where Minling Mountain is?" Lou Jinchen asked.
"Mingling Mountain is not in our state. It is in Wuzhou, which is mysterious and foggy. There are many spiritual monks in it," the second master said.
"Do you know why in today's world, after becoming a god, there is no way forward?" the second master suddenly asked.
"I don't know." Of course Lou Jinchen didn't know. He had never been in the sect, so how could he know these things that only disciples of the sect knew.
"Many people say it's because our world doesn't have enough mystery, or it's because our world is too cold and hard," said the second-in-command.
"Not enough mystery? Too cold and hard?" Lou Jinchen understood this sentence in his heart.
"Have you ever seen Swimming City turn into an Eyeless City? What do you think of the atmosphere in that city?" asked the second-in-command.
Lou Jinchen immediately understood that although the city looked quiet, it was filled with suppressed madness. In that city, every brick and tile, every plant and every tree seemed to exude a strange aura.
The Second Master looked at Lou Jinchen's enlightened look and thought to himself: "The Third Master can cultivate himself to such a state with a simple Qi Refining Tao Technique. His understanding is really extraordinary."
"This is what everyone said is that the coldness and mysterious aura are not enough, so everyone can't break through the realm of god transformation. Therefore, many people will summon the mysterious spirits to come, not only because they can obtain divine magic from them, but also for another reason.
They hope that the world can change," said the second boss.
Only then did Lou Jinchen realize that the actions of the Secret Spirit Sect were actually supported by many people.
"But isn't there a secret realm?" Lou Jinchen said.
"The formation of a secret realm is also very demanding and requires a long process, and some people infer that even if you break through in a secret realm, you cannot leave that secret realm. Once you leave, you will be like a fish landing on the shore, and you will die soon, because
The outside world cannot satisfy his physical needs after his promotion."
The second master continued: "You must have also experienced that in the second half of your Qi refining, your physical body will always feel a sense of hunger. This is not only the process of practicing Qi refining, but also similar needs.
People on the path of spiritual practice will also have various needs from the body or soul. If there are no conditions and cannot be satisfied, they will be extremely painful."
Lou Jinchen immediately thought of how he had eaten spiritual wine and spiritual meat for three days after a day-and-night battle at Wanghaijiao to satisfy his physical body's thirst. This made him warn himself later not to consume like that again.
Let me give you a preview first, there will be a big update tomorrow.
