Chapter 77: Attracting Zuo Ci to move to Kongling Mountain
I must admit that my writing motivation has been getting worse and worse since last Saturday. I will send you an update of 4,000 words tonight, and I would like to apologize for any dissatisfaction.
The Taoist figure appeared, an old Taoist with gray hair and a childish face.
"I was going to say who followed us all the way, but it turned out to be you, an old fool!" Upon seeing this, Xie Yi immediately yelled.
"Silence!" Zuo Ci waved his right hand and a talisman was struck, and Xie Yi immediately became silent.
It's not that he stopped talking, but that no matter how hard he shouted, no sound came out.
Seeing Xie Yi like this, Zuo Ci also felt very proud.
But the next moment, Xie Yi took out a talisman and pinched it. As the talisman shone for a while, he regained his ability to speak.
"Hmph! How can you show off the lowest level of silencing charm?!" Xie Yi said disdainfully.
Since getting the "Encyclopedia of Knowledge of Talisman and Seal Script", he has also studied hard. Although he has not been able to draw high-level magic talismans, he has no problem in drawing some low-level magic talismans.
"I'll give you some color to see, so that you won't be so proud!" Xie Yi took out the Samadhi True Fire Gourd. After a few words, a burst of flames spurted out from the mouth of the gourd and rushed towards Zuo Ci.
"Samadhi True Fire? Fellow Taoist, you really have something good in your hands! But, this kind of thing can't hurt me either!" Zuo Ci smiled.
The next moment, his figure immediately transformed into hundreds or thousands of them, scattered throughout the mountain.
"Among so many shadows, only one is the real me. If you want to get burned, let's see how lucky you are!" Zuo Ci said contemptuously.
"Okay! I still don't believe it, but I can't burn you to death!" Xie Yi became furious and planned to use real fire to burn Zuo Ci.
"Stop!" At the critical moment, Xie Xin stopped him.
"Brother?!" Xie Yi wondered why Xie Xin wanted to stop him.
"The figures in front of me are all phantoms. His true body is not here." Xie Xin said with a smile.
"My fellow Taoist, since I came here with friendship, wouldn't it be a good idea to deceive others with this illusion?" Xie Xin shouted to the surroundings.
"I don't know why my friend said he was cheating?!" Zuo Ci looked at Xie Xin coldly and asked.
"Zuo Ci, ziyuanfang. People from Lujiang, date of birth..." Xie Xin read lightly, but in the end there was a long, long sound.
"I don't know how your friend knows this?!" Zuo Ci still asked coldly.
"If I said that you are one of the few people in the world of cultivation that I pay close attention to, would you believe it or not?!" Xie Xin looked around wildly and said lightly.
"Does Yuan Fang feel honored to have the attention of fellow Taoists?" Zuo Ci said expressionlessly.
"Indeed it should be so! Because if a monk I don't know dares to show off in front of me with only a little magic and the seventh level of Qi training, or even intends to do harm to me, I will probably kill him immediately
!" Xie Xin said calmly.
Then he jumped suddenly, came to a bush not far away, and stretched his hand into the void.
"Because of the different realms, for a monk like you whose cultivation level is far lower than mine, no matter how strong the illusion is, I can still sense your existence!" Xie Xin suddenly mentioned, and a man wearing a Taoist robe appeared.
Was lifted out of the void.
"Fellow Taoist is really powerful, even if I don't accept it, it's useless!" A childish voice came out at this moment.
I saw Xie Xin holding a child around seven or eight years old in his hands.
"Child?!" Xie Yi couldn't help being surprised, then blushed a little.
He actually scolded a seven or eight-year-old child, and also shouted to kill him. As a man who is about to become an adult, doing this is naturally very embarrassing.
"Zuo Ci was supposed to have been born fourteen years ago, so naturally he is only fourteen years old this year. When I saw that old man calling himself Zuo Ci, I felt something was wrong. But are you really fourteen years old? Why?
She looks only seven or eight years old?!" Xie Xin asked doubtfully.
"There is nothing I can do. If I appear like this, many monks will immediately come to rob me. As for my appearance, please don't go into it in depth, okay?!" Zuo Ci said helplessly.
I saw that he was wearing a large Taoist uniform, the width of which was completely inappropriate for his figure. Just dressed like this, it made him a little more cute.
"Is this Taoist robe a magic weapon?!" Xie Xin asked in a low voice.
"According to records, it is a medium-grade magic weapon, the Moral Bagua Clothes, which can increase the effect of spells." Zuo Ci was honest at the moment and answered almost all questions.
"Aren't you practicing in Tianzhu Mountain? Why did you end up in Xu County?!" Xie Xin continued to ask.
"It was too boring on the mountain, so I went down to play. According to my training experience, it is also recorded on it: after traveling thousands of miles in the world of mortals, you will realize the Tao and become an immortal. In other words, you cannot become an immortal if you don't join the world!" Zuo Ci replied still so obediently.
.
"Then why are you following us in Xu County?!" the question continued.
"Well... this fellow Taoist should know about the spirit stone thing... so..." Zuo Ci's pink face had turned red at this moment.
Obviously, this person has not been involved in the world for a long time, and his face is still a bit tender.
"So you plan to scare us away and monopolize the spirit stone mine?!" Xie Yi asked angrily.
"No... no! I just... want to intimidate you... I hope I can get a little bit from you." Zuo Ci replied shyly.
"Ha?! So you plan to get something for nothing?!" Xie Yi understood.
"Who said I don't work anymore! I used two talismans and an illusion. Isn't that all my efforts?!" When Zuo Ci heard this, he immediately retorted loudly.
It's just that his rebuttal sounded to everyone's ears like he was acting like a child.
"I can give you some spiritual stones!" Xie Xin said.
"Ha?!" Zuo Ci didn't react for a moment.
"Brother, why?!" Xie Yi shouted loudly.
"But first, you have to answer a few questions from me! If the answer is in line with my wishes, I can give you half of the spiritual stones. If you are not satisfied, you can also get five points of spiritual stones." Xie Xin said lightly.
"Then...Excuse me!" Zuo Ci thought for a while and said.
"You didn't realize the Tao on your own from the beginning, let alone receive enlightenment from an immortal, but you found an immortal's cave?" Xie Xin asked expressionlessly.
"How did you..." Zuo Ci was startled, but after blurting out, he realized something was wrong.
"Don't try to hide it. With your ill-fitting robe and your previous words, I can still tell! After all, your time in the world is too short, probably less than three months!
"Xie Xin said to him seriously.
"Yes... I just left that cave a little over a month ago!" Zuo Ci could only give in after hearing this.
"The reason why you went down the mountain is not just because you want to join the world and practice?" Xie Xin continued to ask.
"Yes! Because the spiritual stones left in the cave have been used up. If they are not replenished, the poor Taoist's practice will be much slower in the future..." At this point, Zuo Ci lowered his head in shame.
"So I accidentally discovered the spiritual stone in Xu County, and even learned the source of the spiritual stone. I just don't have the ability to dig at hand, so I hope that when we dig, we can give it to you evenly?! And because I was worried that we wouldn't give it, so I specially
Use illusions to scare us, hoping that if we can't see through the situation, we will give you more spiritual stones because of the fear in our hearts?!" Xie Xin looked at him and asked.
At this time, Zuo Ci did not continue to speak, but just bit his lips and nodded.
"Very good! Last question... our Xiaoyao sect plans to recruit you as a guest elder. Are you willing to join our Xiaoyao sect?!" Xie Xin asked with a smile.
"Ha?!" Zuo Ci was stunned.
"Ha!" Xie Yi and others did not react for a moment.
“Although it is a small sect and has only been established for less than a year, the infrastructure is basically complete and will continue to be replenished.
At the same time, our outer courtyard is a private school, and I will serve as the tutor. In the future, when you grow up, you can also serve as a tutor to achieve the goal of joining the world. It can be said that you can achieve multiple things with one stone!" Xie Xin began to promote it vigorously.
It was nonsense to say it, but he saw Ge Xuan's teacher, even Zhao Yun's teacher in legend, Zuo Ci, one of the more famous immortals in the Eastern Han Dynasty, appearing in front of him at this moment.
At this moment, he is still so immature and his cultivation level is not very high.
If you don't abduct her as soon as possible in this situation, how long will it take?
"What did you mean just now, was for me to join your sect?!" Zuo Ci asked doubtfully.
"It would be best if you could join. If not, I wouldn't mind becoming a guest elder!" Xie Xin said with a smile.
"That...okay!" Zuo Ci thought for a while, then agreed after some hesitation.
Casual cultivators like him, especially if they accidentally find the Immortal Mansion, can start cultivating, but without anyone to guide them, the path of cultivation will naturally be extremely difficult.
What's more important is that his school is proficient in the study of elixirs and illusions, but his cultivation is not advanced. It can be said that if there are no adventures and no supply of spiritual stones, Zuo Ci will even have to practice ten times.
It takes eight years to reach the foundation building stage.
How many ten or eight years does a person have to waste?
The most important thing is that Zuo Ci devoted himself to cultivation because he lost his parents and family. Life is not easy for a person. This feeling is difficult for him at his age to bear.
If you can join the Xiaoyao Sect, you can at least have a few cultivation partners, and your life will not be too lonely.
In general, it was because of his immaturity and lack of understanding of the world of cultivation that he accepted Xie Xin's solicitation.
"Welcome to the Xiaoyao Sect! From now on, you are one of the elders of our sect!" Xie Xin was overjoyed and immediately announced in public.
"Um, please give me some advice!" After hearing what the thank you letter said, Zuo Ci rubbed his head in embarrassment and said with a giggle.
That look is indeed very cute.
For a moment, seeing him like this, Xie Yi had no intention of getting angry.
Bian Linglong, on the other hand, was even more maternal at this moment. She completely ignored the fact that the other person was three or four years older than herself, and rushed towards him, giving him a good caress.
There's no way around it, Zuo Ci looks like he's seven or eight years old, and is much shorter than Bian Linglong. Coupled with his pink and tender skin, he looks like a top-notch young lady.
"Speaking of which, your age..." Xie Xin couldn't help but ask.
To be honest, not to mention the thank you letter, Xie Yi and Lou Gui were also deeply curious.
"Back then I came to the cave and found a bottle of elixir. I thought it was something from the immortal family, and it was naturally magical, so I took it directly..." Zuo Ci replied with a blushing face.
"Fuck! Didn't you take the Dingyan Pill?!" Bian Linglong reacted immediately.
"Yes... Later, when I learned alchemy, I realized that what I was eating at that time was..." Zuo Ci replied sheepishly.
"Then you will spend your whole life..." Xie Yi asked curiously.
"Not really, it's just that the body's growth will be about four to five times slower than others." Zuo Ci answered, shaking his head.
"Ha?! So that means that it will take thirty-five years at the latest for you to grow up to be fourteen years old?!" Xie Yi was about to laugh out loud at this moment.
"Yes..." Zuo Ci replied frustratedly.
If a normal man's physiological reaction is to be followed, it will not appear until he is thirteen years old. At the same time, if Zuo Ci is about seven years old now, based on a growth rate of five times, it will take thirty years for that reaction to appear.
In other words, Zuo Ci must remain a virgin for another thirty years before he can enjoy the fun that a man should have.
As far as this waiting time is concerned, how many men can be ashamed?!
"Okay, now that Yuan Fang has joined our sect and has become an elder, you are not allowed to talk about this topic anymore, and you can't talk about it everywhere. Do you understand?" Xie Xin said to several people seriously!
.
"Understood!" They looked at Zuo Ci pitifully, and everyone replied in unison.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and let's get back to work!" Xie Xin immediately took the topic elsewhere.
"Brother, where is this mineral vein?!" Xie Yi looked left and right, but he didn't see anything similar to the spirit stone mineral vein.
"Three miles directly below!" Xie Xin pointed to the bottom of his feet and said.
"Ha?! So deep? Then, how are we going to dig?!" Xie Yi shouted suddenly.
"What's so difficult about this?!" Xie Xin smiled.
With the pinch of the magic weapon, a hill-like stone suddenly appeared next to Xie Xin.
"Lingshi?! Brother, how did you get it?!" Looking at the mountain of spiritual stones, Xie Yi couldn't help but asked in surprise.
"We all know where they are. Is it difficult to pick them up from the ground directly using telekinesis?" Xie Xin said while looking at everyone.
"Ah! So there is this trick!" Xie Yi suddenly reacted.
"That's the spirit stone. If it were anything else, this trick wouldn't be useful." Xie Xin looked at the mountain of spirit stones and couldn't help but sigh.
"Okay, let's start installing these spiritual stones!" Xie Xin turned around and said to everyone.
"I'm here to help!" Zuo Ci smiled and took out a ring, and with just one sweep, all the spiritual stones everywhere were put into it.
"This is the Najie I found in the cave that was left by the original owner. There is about ten spaces as big as this mountain. It will be absolutely stress-free to put the entire mountain in it!" Zuo Ci showed off with a smile.
Finally, he handed the ring to Xie Xin and said to him: "Master, since I have joined the Xiaoyao sect, then this Najie will also be handed over to the sect!"
Xie Xin took the Najie and smiled: "Since this thing has been obtained by Elder Zuo, it naturally belongs to Elder Zuo. This is actually the case in the world of cultivation. Sometimes luck is also a kind of strength."
"That's it! Well, back to the Immortal Sect, I'll help take out the spirit stones inside!" Zuo Ci couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xie Xin didn't take the ring.
In fact, isn't this a test for Xie Xin?
Seeing Xie Xin's attitude, he finally felt relieved and was full of curiosity about the so-called Xiaoyao Sect.
All the spirit stones have been taken away, so there is no need for Xie Xin and others to stay any longer.
So everyone followed the road they came from and returned to Dianjia Village, where they met up with the other four people.
As for the extra Zuo Ci, Xie Xin didn't explain much, and the others were very cooperative and didn't ask any questions.
In this way, under the leadership of Xie Xin, a group of people
