The little girl nodded slowly, "I have known him for three hundred years in the underworld."
"In the last life, he pretended to be a fortune teller and deceived me that Yan An had gone to the underworld. In this life, before I recognized Yan An again, I couldn't remember his appearance at all. Why?"
Funny's already round eyes widened slightly, trying hard to think about the meaning of Li Ting's words.
"Brother, in your last life, did you want it to go to the underworld?"
"Not really. At first, I overestimated my capabilities and wanted to bring people back to life. Later, I thought it would be good to rest in peace."
Funny blinked, as if he understood something, "You have thoughts and obsessions about it, and Xie Bian wants to cut them off, otherwise there is no need for him to deceive you."
"Then what's the benefit to him?" Li Ting said coldly.
Indeed, Bai Wuchang is not responsible for the affairs of ghosts. It doesn't matter to him whether Yan An has the thoughts of people from the earthly world.
Interesting thought for a long time, took out a book from his body, and handed it to Li Ting.
Li Ting looked at the thick booklet with some surprise. There were four words written on it - The Silent Ghost Code.
...are these some hellish rules and regulations?
"Brother, this page." The funny little hand held the page and helped him turn to a certain place.
——If a ghost knows that he has relatives in the mortal world that he misses, he is usually unwilling to join the job. If he wants to stop his reincarnation, he should cut off his fate.
Onboarding?
It's quite strategic.
Li Ting gradually began to make some guesses. It was possible that a ghost had taken a liking to Yan An and wanted him to stay in the underworld. That's why Bai Wuchang found him and wanted him to let go of this death. In this way, there was one less person in the world of the earth.
A person who worries about peace of mind.
And it wouldn't be surprising if he was favored by the underworld and was given some special abilities to enable Yan An to cross the Bridge of Two Lives.
Li Ting closed the booklet, returned it to the audience, and asked, "Do Xie Bian and I have different statuses?"
"He has been in the underworld for more than a thousand years, and has extradited countless dead souls..." the little girl said as she clapped her fingers, "In terms of status, he can be ranked in the top ten."
After that, the little girl looked at Li Ting and said: "Brother is not a ghost, so naturally he is not a ghost, but the king of hell is afraid of you day and night, and you are negotiating deals, so you are different from the ghost master in the past, even if you have not crossed
There are several ghosts, and you don’t have to bow to anyone.”
"The ghost master? You mean there was someone who helped guide the ghosts before?" Li Ting immediately caught something.
Qingqu closed his mouth, spread out his palms, looked down, scratched twice with his little hands, and then said in a low voice: "That's right, but they... are not helping."
She said no more, and only looked at Li Ting quietly with her big black eyes, which made Li Ting feel that it was inappropriate to ask any more questions.
So he touched the little girl's head and said with a smile: "So if I go to question Xie Bian, will the King of Hell care?"
"No." Qing Qing shook his head, "But I won't help either. The relationship between my brother and the King of Hell... is very subtle. I can't explain it."
Although she didn't understand, Li Ting understood. If there was no day and night, he would naturally let the other party round him up and flatten him. But with day and night, he has a bargaining chip, can form a delicate balance with the King of Hell, and has some right to speak.
.
Therefore, he is not considered a subordinate who obeys the orders of the King of Hell. Therefore, the King of Hell will neither care about him nor help him.
It's like half a collaborator. As for why it's only half, it's naturally because I'm not strong enough. If I can't stand in the same position, the other party will have the capital to overturn the table at any time, so I can't be considered a true collaborator.
"Then we will go to the underworld after we get back. If I am beaten by Xie Bian, you have to take me away." Li Ting said to the little girl.
Interesting tilted his head, "Why are you running?"
"I went to him to settle the score. Of course he might get angry." Li Ting seemed to have thought of what he wanted to do, and there was a smile in his eyes.
"I'm here." He said interestingly.
"Are you going to take action?" Li Ting felt strange. He was always a "pacifist" and would rather be beaten than hurt others.
Sure enough, the little girl shook her head and said seriously: "It's not a good boy to hit others. I can help my brother block it, and he won't hit me."
"Why?"
"Because he can't save me either."
Li Ting looked at the little girl in astonishment. Her dark eyes were quiet and a little gloomy. They were the unique color of a ghost, gloomy and confused.
He stretched out his hand and gently covered the little girl's eyes, thinking for the first time, what is this little girl's obsession that has not been swallowed up by resentment for more than three hundred years?
No one knows her obsession, and naturally no one can help her get through her confusion.
…
Li Ting held Day and Night in his arms, welcoming a layer of gray morning light. There were no ghosts to disturb him all night. He turned his head and looked at the wind, rain and night sounds not far away. His mind suddenly recalled Day and Night, and walked over.
Feng Yu collected the runes one by one, and when he saw Li Ting coming over, he said, "We will collect them for another day, and then we will go back."
Li Ting nodded and looked for herbs along the sand river. The yellow sand was floating, and a blue-black slender plant was vaguely visible. He grabbed its leaves, cut them along the roots and put them away.
This is a kind of herb in Beizhou that restores mana. It has water properties and often grows on the edge of rivers and lakes. If the spiritual root contains water, it can be taken directly, but the effect is not as good as medicine. If the spiritual root has no water properties, it cannot be taken raw and must be boiled.
Made into medicine.
There are five types of spiritual energy in the world: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, which correspond to the birth of heavenly materials and earthly treasures with different attributes, and even human spiritual roots. The five types of spiritual energy are mutually reinforcing and incompatible. It is not possible to practice by absorbing spiritual energy with the same attributes, and many contain incompatible spiritual energy.
Items can also be converted under special conditions into usable elixir equipment to enhance the monk's mana.
The spiritual energy of each state is different. The spiritual energy of gold is stronger in the western state, the spiritual energy of water is stronger in the northern state, the spiritual energy of wood is stronger in the eastern state, the spiritual energy of fire is stronger in the southern state, and the mountainous areas in the middle have the spiritual energy of earth.
It's a coincidence that there are three irreversible two-tone bridges in the world, from Xizhou to Beizhou, from Beizhou to Dongzhou, and from Dongzhou to Nanzhou, which are in line with the five elements of metal generating water, water generating wood, and wood generating fire.
.
It is often said by practitioners that it can also be regarded as the creation of heaven and earth.
In Xizhou, where the golden spiritual energy is more abundant, many monks have metallic spiritual roots, so their practice will go more smoothly. If you are born in Xizhou, you don’t have to worry if your spiritual roots are not metallic. After all, metallic spiritual energy is not strong enough.
It only represents metal. In Xizhou, there are also water-attribute spiritual beasts and herbs in the rivers and lakes. There are wood spirits in the mountains. When the sun is the strongest, there must be fire-attribute spiritual beads and spiritual plants in the south and north of the mountains. They are all gifts from heaven and earth.
.
In the previous life, Chen Shi's spiritual roots were of the three attributes of wood, fire, and earth. He didn't take up too many geographical advantages, so he worked hard to find treasures of heaven, materials, and earth. He walked around, which could be regarded as relying on extraordinary efforts to enhance his magic power and constantly understand the world. If it weren't for fate,
If you are not good, you will not stop at the Dao Dan stage.
In this life, Li Ting had no intention of cultivating immortality, so he never cared much about his spiritual root attributes, but he knew it after all.
The other side flower grows on the bank of the Wangchuan River, and the Wangyou bean sounds like a strange plant. Maybe because the body is made of these two, and his spiritual root has the dual attributes of water and wood, so the conditions are better than in the previous life.
After all, the spiritual roots with three mutually generating attributes must also have two attributes that are incompatible with each other. It takes a lot of effort to fuse the spiritual energy and convert it into mana.
As for aquatic wood, the spiritual roots of these two attributes alone need to be taken care of better.
Li Ting only knew about some wood-type heavenly materials and earthly treasures, but he didn't have much experience with such spiritual root characteristics.
Speaking of which, Yan An also had a water-wood spiritual root in his last life. Because he lacked the fire attribute, he couldn't be an alchemist or weapon-refiner, but he must have had a lot of experience in the practice. It would be beneficial if we could communicate with each other.
At this point, Li Ting took one look at the stiff-skinned ghost and secretly sighed that things in the world are confusing.
In the past few days, his mentality has changed. Since fate is bound to drag him forward, instead of resisting, it is better to take this opportunity to become stronger and exchange hard work and travel for strength and the power to know the truth.
He still doesn't like cultivating immortals, but he has accepted the matter of transcending ghosts and advancing to the next level, and is willing to do it with a positive attitude, so he will study and treat it seriously at the same time, whether it is his own body or herbs that increase spiritual power.
This is Beizhou Daicao, which grows in shoals or wet places. It is a basic water-attribute spiritual plant that can be used to make elixirs and medicines. It can neutralize strange-attribute spiritual energy when refining weapons. Li Ting looked at the blue-black color in his hand and felt a little...
The sawtooth grass wiped the sand from its roots and put it away in the storage wristband.
He was bending down by the river, touching the herbs with a quiet expression, when his fingers suddenly touched a round object. The young man's eyes widened slightly. He could never mistake the fluctuations of spiritual energy. He was sure that it was a spiritual bead.
.
Spiritual beads are the best cultivation materials, and can directly absorb their power. They can be called gifts from heaven and earth. Most of them have no attributes and are scattered in nature, or sealed in mountains, rocks and rivers with sufficient spiritual energy, waiting for monks to find and mine them.
Li Ting has been able to skillfully use day and night in the middle and late stages of his last life. He will never lack spiritual pearls to practice, but he will never forget the days when there was no day and night in the beginning, when he searched hard and was ecstatic when he got every spiritual pearl.
.
Therefore, he has always cherished this simple cultivation material.
This is the first spiritual bead he found after re-accepting his cultivation as an immortal in this life.
Li Ting fished out the spirit bead. The water flow was soft and powerful, washing away the sediment on the surface of the smooth bead. A spirit bead with a water-colored halo was held in his hand, which made him hold his breath.
This is a spirit bead with water attributes! Every spirit bead with attributes in this world is a treasure.
A big smile appeared on his childish face, and the spiritual pearl in his hand was as beautiful as a pearl in this broken world. This chapter has been completed!
