Chapter 450: Opening the bundle, there were not many things inside

~16 min read 3,162 words

Very simple, there is no storage ring in this world, and the magic tools used when performing some spells are dazzling, so they can only make trade-offs.

Li Yan and the others, as wandering immortals, generally carry them with them. Even if they are streamlined, they have accumulated a lot of luggage over a long period of time.

The three Wushan loose immortals must have other hiding places, but the people are dead, so those things have become ownerless.

This is also the reason why in some deep mountains, occasionally cave scriptures and magic tools are discovered, achieving a legend.

First is the "Wish-fulfilling Yang Baozhu."

This thing is still wrapped in red cloth and covered with talismans to cover the aura, because it is a bit eye-catching, so it can only be used at critical moments.

Li Yan placed it aside carefully, and then picked up two knives.

These were left by the one-eyed Daoist.

About this person, only his surname "Lin" is known, he learned the magic of the Tongtian Sect, and nothing else is known.

The other party should have used the method of seizing the house, died and got someone else's body, barely survived, and hid in Wushan to become an Earth Immortal.

A pair of short knives, both ink-black, the blade is rough, with many air holes on it, and holding it in the hand, the yin evil spirit is pressing.

Its material, Li Yan just happened to see it on Huashan.

This thing is called "Underworld Iron," originally a meteorite from the sky, which fell into a grave or some deep valley yin evil place by chance, and became so over time.

It can bless yin spells such as controlling ghosts and yin curses.

This thing is also a treasure, but it is not suitable for them. It is better to keep it and exchange it when the treasure cellar of Qingcheng Mountain opens.

This time coming to Shu, there are quite a few things.

One is to participate in the "Huangquan" organization meeting and look for the inheritance of Yin Changsheng. The Fengdu trip is considered settled, just waiting to return again in the twelfth lunar month to participate in the gathering and see what benefits can be obtained.

The second is to help the Dragon Girl find out the reason for the abnormal movement of the Jiangshen Great Lord. There is no clue so far, but it is very likely related to the ancient Dragon Palace water mansion.

This is also one of the reasons for the chaotic phenomena in the Shu martial arts world.

The third is to go to Qingcheng Mountain, one is to forge magic tools, and the other is to say hello in advance and participate in the cellar opening ceremony held after the New Year.

The rest are some scattered tasks.

For example, escorting the Bai family to Qingcheng, for example, passing through some areas to help Wang Jingxiu find treasure medicine.

Besides that, there are two treasures.

One is the reward of the Bai family. The Siming Society has a small cave cellar in Shu. Although it is not a world-shaking treasure, it has a long history, and the things hidden inside can be used to exchange on Qingcheng Mountain.

After all, the Mystic Sect opens the cellar, and bartering is more suitable.

If you use silver, they can't afford it at all.

There is also the reward of the Green Bull Temple. There are several heavenly treasures hidden, so you have to find a treasure-seeking person along the way to help take the treasure.

This is one of the reasons they came to Chongqing.

Thinking of this, Li Yan placed the short knife aside again.

On the one-eyed Daoist, the most valuable thing is this, and the rest are all odds and ends, all given to Meng Zhanggui.

The key is Wang Mengsheng and the items on the Wenxiang Saintess.

Wang Mengsheng carried two books with him, one called "Yi Chen" and one called "Luo Wei," which are prophecy books whose names have never been heard.

According to the old woman Bai Huan, this Wang Mengsheng practiced in the "Jinghuang Cave" in Wushan. Emperor Wu of Liang once hid books there, and Emperor Ming of Tang also stayed there to avoid the An Lushan Rebellion.

It might be an isolated secret classic left in the palace.

Li Yan opened it and turned the pages carefully.

"Yi Chen" is a prophecy map, drawing the sixty-four hexagrams of the I Ching, corresponding to the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, and also has the theory of Five Movements and Six Qi, both prophecies and some strange magic.

"Luo Wei" is another interpretation of the Luo Shu, mostly related to gods and ghosts, and mixed with certain curse methods.

Li Yan was confused after reading it and couldn't understand it at all, so he could only put it away first and then hand it to Wang Daoxuan to comprehend.

The art of prophecy is a forbidden art of the Confucian Sect, and its power must be extraordinary.

And on the Wenxiang Saintess, except for some secret incense powder used to perform spells, only a picture scroll remained.

The picture scroll is ancient, seemingly refined from human skin, colorful, depicting some strange gods, and at first glance, it is a thing of the Tantric Sect.

Not only that, there is also a gang evil spirit lingering on it. If you stare at it for a while, illusions will appear before your eyes.

This kind of scripture-like magic tool, Li Yan saw it for the first time.

If you run into a master of the Buddhist Sect, you might be able to ask about it.

After collecting and classifying the things, Li Yan shook his head slightly.

This time, it was a bit of a loss.

Although he killed the Master of the Green Bull Temple and captured the demonic energy, getting a gang order and a divine gang, but when killing the Wushan two immortals, he used a gang order again.

At that time, the situation was urgent, and he didn't have time to take the task, so he risked his life to kill the Earth Immortal, but didn't get the reward from the Yin Division.

On the contrary, Meng Zhanggui picked up a bargain.

You know, such opportunities are rare.

Living Yin messengers are the nemesis of Earth Immortals and those who return from the dead. No matter how high your cultivation is, as long as you are not bigger than this sky, once you run into it, you are looking for death.

Therefore, Earth Immortals rarely show up in front of living Yin messengers.

If you want to deal with it, you usually find disciples of the sect, or Mystic Sect masters, and even powerful killers can kill living Yin messengers.

Simply put, it is the relationship between stick, tiger, and chicken.

Mutual checks and balances form the current situation.

It is harder than going to heaven to find such an opportunity again.

But he is not without gain.

"Wish-fulfilling Yang Baozhu" can only be considered an external object. What really surprised Li Yan was that the Great Luo Dala Dala Fa Shen finally improved again.

Originally it was a broken stone shape, later it became ceramic, becoming more and more exquisite, and now, it has revealed a metallic luster!

Li Yan kept his mind and looked inside, observing the Great Luo Dala Dala Fa Shen carefully.

After the Great Luo Dala Dala Fa Shen improved, the color actually began to dim, like those divine statues cast in black iron in the temples.

The Gou Die seal is on the left palm, the chains of the soul-hooking rope are entangled on both arms, pinching the formula and sitting cross-legged, the facial features are becoming clearer, exactly the same as him.

The only difference is that on the lotus seat below, there are two lotus petals, the outline is outlined with gold thread, which is exceptionally obvious.

This appeared after absorbing the "Meng Shen Bu" blessing in the village near Wushan, which can also enhance the strength of the Dala Dala Fa Shen.

As for what other functions it has, the quantity is too small to show.

Li Yan was thoughtful after seeing it.

The secret of this Great Luo Dala Dala Fa Shen is really too much, and it is very likely related to that mysterious Great Luo Dala Fajie.

Unfortunately, even the Great Luo Dala Fajie is a secret of heaven and earth, let alone this Great Luo Dala Dala Fa Shen, I guess no one has heard of it at all.

How many secrets are hidden in this world...

Although he didn't understand, it didn't hinder his use.

Li Yan pondered for a while, shook his right hand, the dark force erupted, and suddenly slapped his chest with a palm.

At the same time, the fascia in his body drummed and vibrated, quickly resolving and transferring this force, passing it into his feet.

Crack!

The bricks and stones under his feet shattered instantly.

Immortal Seal Method!

This martial arts method he created on a whim has now completely had a framework, which can transfer the force attacking the body.

It can both unload force and borrow force to hit force.

But this is just the beginning. If the enemy attacks at the same time, several different forces attack the body, it is impossible to resolve them in time.

If you want to completely practice it, you can only practice hard constantly, form a powerful instinct, follow the heart, follow the body, to resolve it.

Going further, it is to turn it into martial arts.

Since stepping into the martial arts world, Li Yan has experienced many battles, and the masters who died under his hands are countless, and he has completely understood a truth. No matter how high your martial arts are and how sharp your spells are, the one who can survive in the battle is the winner.

Drifting in the martial arts world, how can you not get stabbed.

Relying solely on the Great Luo Dala Dala Fa Shen, one day you will encounter power that is difficult to resist, and three lives are not enough to squander.

Therefore, life-saving kung fu is indispensable.

This Immortal Seal Method is an auxiliary to the Great Luo Dala Dala Fa Shen.

When practicing before, it was inevitable that there would be mistakes, and the Great Luo Dala Dala Fa Shen also appeared cracks. In key battles, it might lose a life.

Now that the strength of the Great Luo Dala Dala Fa Shen has improved, it means that he can withstand more damage, and the practice of the Immortal Seal Method can also speed up.

Also, the three-story building of Dao practice is worthy of being the peak of mortals.

From here on, even for him, the speed of practice has slowed down significantly, and it is still far from the fourth floor.

The practice of spells cannot be left behind. It seems that he also has to find some yin evil places on the road and practice with the help of "Beidi Luo Feng Jing."

Thinking of this, Li Yan took out the Bashu map again, drew on it according to the information, marked it with his own unique symbols, and combined with the secret treasures of the Bai family and the heavenly treasure orientation told by the Green Bull Temple, planned the route.

After doing these, he took out the last piece of information.

On it is information about treasure-seeking people.

The treasure-seeking lineage, because they can often find treasures, is inevitably coveted, so their actions are very secret.

The only clue mentioned above is that a group of treasure-seeking people appeared near the dz area.

dz area?

Li Yan looked at the information and was thoughtful.

Those people, wouldn't they be hitting the idea of Dazu Rock Carvings...

…………

In the southern part of the city, outside a dilapidated temple.

Torches were burning, and the ground was full of broken limbs and corpses.

"Wuwu!"

"Son, I finally found you!"

"These sons of turtles, they really deserve to die!" Everywhere were children crying, and the common people who heard the news blocked the street entrance, and many people poked their heads to look.

The soldiers of the guard station built a human wall to block the common people.

The small officials in the government office led those children out one by one.

Those who have family members must be identified by the children themselves, and two neighbors must be found to guarantee, before they can take the person away.

As for those who cannot find their family members, they will be settled in a place for the time being.

In the crowd watching the excitement, some cried, some cursed.

This temple was originally the Land Temple of the Daxiang era of the previous dynasty. Because it was dedicated to the officials of the Daxiang Dynasty, the local officials and gentry had concerns and never allocated funds for repairs, gradually becoming dilapidated.

Later, it was occupied by a group of evil beggars.

These people were rampant, often going to the doors of nearby merchants to beg for money, saying some auspicious words to ask for money.

If they didn't give it, splashing feces, stealing chickens and dogs, smashing windows in the middle of the night... they used all kinds of disgusting means, making the common people miserable.

!.

Reported to the government several times, the people from the government office came and drove them away, but they would return within three days, and they would toss the people who reported them to death.

Over time, no one dared to say more.

Unexpectedly, this time it was all taken in one pot.

The common people cursed incessantly, and they felt very relieved in their hearts.

Inside the dilapidated temple, the yamen runners and the people from the Commandant Division were busy.

"My lord, it's a new type of firearm."

The coroner stood up and cupped his hands after examining the corpses: "The person using the firearm is an expert among them, and there is a master to help, blocking these beggars in the courtyard, relying on the power of the firearm, and killing them all."

"The means are clean and neat, definitely not ordinary people in the martial arts world."

Looking at the broken corpses all over the ground, the head catcher of the Chongqing Prefecture government office trembled slightly.

He was tall and sturdy, with dark skin. The most prominent was a big beard, hanging on his chest, smooth as water, and he took great care of it.

This person's surname is Wan, named Wan Baoquan, a master of the Hua Sect among the Five Flowers and Seven Leaves of Emei, specializing in the Thirty-Six Closing Hands of Tiangang, known as the number one divine catcher in the Southwest.

There is also a nickname, called "Beautiful Bearded Man."

Imperial officials generally avoid making friends with people in the martial arts world.

But the head catcher in the public office is not included.

After listening to the coroner's words, Wan Baoquan nodded slightly and respectfully cupped his hands to the side: "Master Liu, the case is clear. It is a local evil beggar abducting population. The humble position suggests closing the case here."

Opposite him, a hundred-household official of the Commandant Division sat on a chair, with two subordinates standing beside him. It was Liu Qian, the hundred-household official who had set up a trap in Fengdu.

Facing the broken corpses all over the ground, he didn't even look at them, trimming his nails with a small knife, indifferently saying: "Head Catcher Wan, it's a bit too sloppy."

Wan Baoquan's face stiffened, "I don't know what the lord means?"

The hundred-household official Liu Qian slowly raised his eyes and said: "Beggar abducting people is just that, it's everywhere, but you know the rules of the imperial court, as long as it involves firearms, you can't be careless."

As he spoke, his eyes turned cold, "The imperial court opened up firearms, it was a last resort, but it doesn't mean that these martial arts guests will be allowed to act recklessly."

"Using firearms in the city, so many people died, if you don't find out the truth, neither of us can afford it!"

"Humph! This group of people is lawless, most likely the beggar's accomplices, uneven distribution of spoils, must be caught!"

Wan Baoquan pondered for a while and cupped his hands: "Yes, my lord."

The hundred-household official Liu Qian of the Commandant Division was satisfied and nodded, taking his subordinates to leave.

But when he walked to the door, he suddenly stopped, turned his head and said meaningfully: "Head Catcher Wan, this official is watching this matter, don't smash your sign of the number one divine catcher in the Southwest..."

After speaking, he strode away.

After he walked out of the dilapidated temple, Wan Baoquan straightened his waist, stared at the other party's back, frowned slightly, and was thoughtful.

His hand unconsciously reached into his arms, took out a delicate small wooden comb, and gently groomed his beard.

"Head, what do you think of this..."

A yamen runner came forward to ask.

Wan Baoquan sneered and groomed his beard, saying: "This Liu is famous for being insidious, he must have bad intentions."

"Check it, find the person first."

The yamen runner nodded hurriedly, "Good, I will take the brothers to find the Gelao Society and ask if there are any strangers entering the city recently."

"Hmm."

Wan Baoquan groomed his beard and nodded slightly.

He stared at the yamen runner who left. After he left, he put away the comb, hooked his finger, and recruited another yamen runner.

"Feng Feng Shixiong brother."

The yamen runner cupped his hands slightly.

Wan Baoquan sneered: "This case doesn't need to be checked at all. At first glance, it is a passing hero who sees injustice, and we are in the public office, but we are also people in the martial arts world."

"If we take people, wouldn't it be ridiculed by fellow travelers in the martial arts world?"

"The kid just now, in a hurry to find someone, must have received money from this group of beggars, follow him, see what you find."

"Yes, senior brother."

The yamen runner nodded slightly and left immediately.

Wan Baoquan took out the wooden comb again, groomed his beard, and muttered: "Son of a turtle, it's really hard to eat a bowl of rice..."

…………

On the other side, after the yamen runner left the dilapidated temple, he accelerated his pace, turned two alleys, and ran in a hurry, arriving at the riverside.

The riverside was pitch black, waves hitting the shore.

He spat, took a hoe from the woods, and dug quickly beside a reef.

Before long, a strong stench of corpses drifted out...
