Xianlu

Chapter 163
Xu Dao stared at Su Jiu, although there was not much change on his face, but his heart was churning.

He walked forward calmly, put his hand on Su Jiu's shoulder, injected his true energy, and checked Su Jiu's body thoroughly, and found that the other party's body had really reached the state of body training, and his blood had already begun to temper his whole body of the membrane.

In just one night, Su Jiu actually broke through the fetal breath and was promoted to body training, and the benefits obtained by the opponent's breakthrough have not disappeared. With every breath, his blood is constantly tempering the body, making it stronger. tough.

For a moment, Xu Dao felt emotional, and had to admit that Su Jiu's talent was far better than his, and he was a genius.

"It's only been less than half a year since she practiced Taoism. Although I have given her a lot of help, and she is not short of talisman money and spiritual liquid, her aptitude is rare in the world, even first-class, to be able to enter Taoism in such a short period of time."

In fact, the reason why Su Jiu was able to break through to the realm of body refinement in such a short period of time, apart from her own aptitude and Xu Dao's training, was also related to the fact that she was kidnapped by Miao Nu last time.

During the more than ten days of being kidnapped, Su Jiu's body and mind were devastated, but it was not a small temper for her heart, and then she was rewarded with blood and honey from Xu Dao, so she made rapid progress during the healing time. Until the key is broken overnight, the breath of true qi enters the mutton, and one becomes a Taoist.

The old swordsman next to him also cupped his hands and congratulated: "Congratulations Jiu'er! Jiu'er is really amazing!"

Su Jiu replied: "Old Sha is full of praise."

"It's not ridiculous, you can break through to the realm of body refinement in such a short period of time, you are much better than my master."

Standing aside, Xu Dao also smiled and said softly, "Maybe in a few years, you will catch up with the master, and then you will have to support me."

The little fox girl was praised by Xu Dao, her eyes were full of joy, but she still had a small face and said seriously: "Ji'er dare not, master don't want to make fun of Jiu'er."

"Hahaha!" Xu Dao rubbed her little head with a smile, and said, "I have just made a breakthrough, and now is the time to be brave and hardworking, so as to gain insight. The secret room is yours to use these few days, so don't waste this opportunity. Now Just go to retreat!"

"Yes, master!" Su Jiu nodded obediently, and she bowed to Xu Dao. Seeing that Xu Dao waved at her to urge her, she bowed to the old swordsman, and then she was about to walk towards the secret room.

But at this time Xu Dao suddenly called her back: "Take this thing, I'm tired from retreating, so I'll play with this whip. Time is running out, so don't sleep for a few days."

I saw Xu Dao take out a long black whip covered in spikes, like a thorny thorn, from the fly.

Su Jiu recognized that this object was used by Miao Nu, it was a magic weapon, she immediately exclaimed: "The magic weapon!"

Xu Dao returned: "Exactly. You also know the origin of this thing. After mastering it, don't easily use it in front of outsiders. First, it's only for self-defense."

Su Jiu is no longer the ignorant little maid. Although she has never been to the ghost market, nor has she met other cultivators, but according to Xu Dao's precepts and deeds, as well as the one or two books she read, her love for the wealthy couple Dharma and ground know a lot about the four.

She is also aware of the importance and expensiveness of things like magical instruments.

Su Jiu's eyes were pleasantly surprised again, but she looked at the long whip in Xu Dao's hand, but hesitated again, and said, "Master, this magic weapon is too precious, Xiao Jiu is not worth it..."

"If you want to accept it, just accept it. Just don't sell it to the master." Xu Dao said softly, and Su Jiu had the courage to accept the magic weapon of the long whip just now.

Thanks again, under Xu Dao's wave of his hand, Su Jiu stepped into the secret room completely and started her own closed-door practice.

Xu Dao and Swordsman stood in front of the secret room, looking at the slowly closing door, still filled with emotion.

Xu Dao was lamenting that he saved a piece of talented and beautiful jade with a random rescue, while the swordsman was lamenting that Su Jiu, who was a soft and weak little maid, has now become a genuine fairy teacher, even Even he himself had the chance to become a fairy teacher.

Then something that surprised the swordsman happened again.

Xu Dao withdrew his gaze, and took out a silk book from his sleeve, with talismans drawn on it, and five large characters of "Cow and Tiger's Alchemy of Skin" written on it.

In this booklet, there is a skill in the realm of leather refining. It is a martial arts skill that Xu Dao based on a skin refining skill, adding, deleting, and simplifying. for.

The booklet is not the original, but it contains the visualization charts and spells drawn by Xu Dao, as well as some external insights, which are assembled into a book for the convenience of passing it on to others, so there is no need for Xu Dao to teach it himself.

"After changing the bloodline of the demon dog, although a hundred days have not passed, your roots have been initially established, and you are full of energy, and you can practice martial arts. After taking this method back, it will be easy to understand. If there is something you don't understand, you can ask for advice Me, after Su Jiu leaves the customs, you can also ask her for advice."

The swordsman stared blankly at the thin booklet in Xu Dao's hand, and his face was overjoyed immediately. He immediately knelt down on one knee, cupped his hands towards Xu Dao, and shouted: "Thank you, master, for the teaching. This old servant will remember it in my heart, and I will work harder Cultivation, live up to the kindness of the master!"

After the swordsman obtained the secret medicine in Xu Dao's hands and replaced the root bone, although he also vaguely guessed that one day he would be taught by Xu Dao, but he didn't know how long it would take for this day to come, and he felt that he didn't know much about it. He didn't dare to ask Xu Dao for the credit.

Unexpectedly, just over a month later, Xu Dao taught him the exercises to save him into Taoism, which surprised the swordsman.

After another swearing and oath, the swordsman's face flushed red with excitement, and he looked eagerly at the booklet in Xu Dao's hand.

"Good!" A smile appeared on Xu Dao's face. After a few words of encouragement, he handed over the booklet in his hand to the swordsman, and handed over a few talisman money for the other party's cultivation.

After sending the swordsmen back to the room to study the exercises, Xu Dao stood alone in the courtyard, looking at the white clouds and dogs in the sky, and began to think silently.

The reason why Miao Nu's magic weapon was rewarded to Su Jiu just now is naturally because this girl is very talented and has broken through to the realm of body training, so she needs to be rewarded and win over.

On the one hand, it was because he didn't want to favor one over the other, and on the other hand, Xu Dao had already prepared the skills to be passed on to the swordsman, so he just followed the trend.

It's just that the skills passed down to the swordsman are incomparable with Su Jiu's. The former's "Cow and Tiger Skin Alchemy" is just leftovers from Xu Dao's comprehension of martial arts, while the latter is the same martial art that Xu Dao practiced—" "Thunder Fire Exercise".

The reason for this is Xu Dao's own considerations, and the main reason is naturally that the law should not be passed on lightly.

Although he is not a Taoist who cherishes himself with his broom, the time that the swordsman has been with him is still short, and he has not made any achievements. It would be too unwise to pass on a profound method.

It should be noted that if you change to an ordinary Taoist priest, even if your servants serve you carefully for ten years, you may not be able to get the real practice method taught by him.

Xu Dao's actions are rare and generous. If ordinary people who seek immortality and Taoism in the world know about it, they will flock to him and be willing to serve as slaves and handmaids.

Fortunately, the swordsman is also a sensible person, and the other party knows the power of it. He only has loyalty and gratitude to Xu Dao in his heart, which is worthy of Xu Dao's kindness.

As for Su Jiu's side, Xu Dao didn't bother to cover up why he was able to get "Thunder and Fire Body Refining Technique" in the first place, and naturally there were some of his thoughts hidden in it.

He paced and walked in the courtyard, thinking to himself: "I already knew that the little fox lady is talented, but I didn't expect that she would be able to step into the realm of body training within half a year. The talent is so good."

In the Temple of the Bone, young girls are considered qualified if they are able to advance to the realm of Qi refining or body refining within three years after being taught the exercises.Anyone who can advance, even if it is only half a year, is a person with good qualifications.

Thinking about it, Xu Dao's thoughts were beating, and suddenly he felt that Su Jiu was a rare person to live in, and he thought in his heart:

"It's a waste for this girl to be by my side. With her aptitude, I'm afraid that even Erhai Dao Palace and others can directly join her... It just so happens that she is also practicing the outer sect of the Erhai Dao Palace."

Thinking about it in his heart, Xu Dao lowered his eyes.

For the classics of exercises, he is not very self-cherishing, and for the servants of the disciples, he naturally will not drag him down, but hopes that all of them will have a bright future, and they will be able to help him, and even support him.

The little fox girl Su Jiu fits this point very well.

Xu Dao thought faintly:

"Although the grace of saving lives and teaching the Dharma is great, it can only leave a feeling of gratitude. If it is to be unforgettable for a lifetime, it must be remembered physically and mentally. Especially for young people, otherwise it will take time After a long time, the relationship will fade..."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing.

Now that he has the idea of ​​living with rare goods, it is best to learn from the methods of Qin Shi's father Lu, and think about it first, maybe it will come in handy one day.

Of course, it doesn't have to be fully applied.

………………

A few days passed by.

These days, Su Jiu and the swordsman are both busy, but Xu Dao himself, he has nothing to do except mentioning the swordsman occasionally, so he also happens to take some rest to relax himself.

Within a few days, he disguised himself and wandered around the mountain city of Shezhao by himself, playing tricks all day long, eating all the famous teahouses and wine shops in the mountain city, and at the same time, he also found out for himself that as the day of sacrifice approached, people in the city It's getting more and more lively, there are not a few cultivators like him hanging out in the mountain city.

As a result, all the clerks in the big and small shops in the mountain city dare not neglect anyone, even beggars dare not offend, lest some Taoist play the wind and dust, and they accidentally bump into the iron plate.

When Xu Dao was preparing to go to watch Shezhao's sacrificial meeting by himself, Su Jiu left the customs during the daytime on June [-]th.

The time she spent in seclusion was not too long, but she gained a lot. Not only did she comprehend the exercises more thoroughly, but she also fully nurtured the long whip, the magic weapon that Xu Dao rewarded her, and completely grasped it in her hands.

Following Xu Dao's example, Su Jiu shrunk the magic weapon and placed it on top of her head, but instead of using it as a hair pin, she used it as a hair band to wrap her snowy white silk.

However, Shezhao's sacrificial ceremony was a bit weird. It was not held during the day, but it officially started to set up the stage in the evening, and it would not start at night.

When Xu Dao said that he was going to join in the fun, Su Jiu had just finished the retreat, probably wanting to relax, begging Xu Dao to take her with him.

The old swordsman glanced at the lights starting to decorate in the mountain city, and muttered that he was stupid and had to hurry up to comprehend the Dharma door bestowed by Xu Dao, and chose to stay in the yard to watch the house.

So in the evening, Xu Dao put on a green shirt, changed his appearance slightly, and pretended to be a young man with a yellow face. Because of his cultivation, he was not very old, but at first glance, he looked quite amiable. Su Jiu is about the same age.

As for Su Jiu, she only used spells to dye her white hair black and covered the fox ears on the top. She was also wearing a green shirt and turned into a pretty little bookboy.

It's just that anyone with a discerning eye can tell that this book boy is not a man, but a woman.

Just like that, when the rays of the sun receded from the sky, the two restrained their energy, walked out of the yard, and blended into the crowded crowd.

Sheshan is vast, but tonight, the thick smoke and smoke enveloped the entire mountain, making it look beautiful.

The city is brightly lit, orange-colored all over the city, and lanterns are hung every other step on both sides of the street, forming a light belt that gathers like a dragon.

The squares and streets in the city are criss-crossed, one by one, like the scales on a dragon.All those who saw this scene from a high place were all in a trance, as if in a dream.

Su Jiu and Xu Dao were no exception. One of them was amazed that he had never seen such a brightly lit scene, and the other was astonished when he saw such a scene again.

Xu Dao recovered from his trance, he looked at the lights in the mountain city, and found that the more he went to the river, the brighter he went.

Looking at the past from a distance, both sides of the Wuxia River are full of light, only the middle of the river is gloomy.

"This scene is not something that ordinary people can do, it should be arranged by the practitioners in the Shezhao."

Thinking in his heart, he realized that if Shezhao wanted to hold a gathering of tens of thousands or 10 people at night, he must also light up the lights all over the city. Otherwise, it would be dark at night, and countless people would be trampled and injured if they were not careful.

Xu Dao looked at the mountain scenery for a few times, then shook his sleeves, and said to the book boy beside him, "Let's go."

"Yes, master!" Su Jiu's book boy clasped his hands and followed Xu Dao's side curiously, walking towards the Wuxia River with the crowd.

There are not only sacrifices tonight, there are also sugar sellers, silver jewelry sellers, gourd musical instrument sellers, rouge gouache sellers, portable lantern sellers, mask sellers, and many other activities such as juggling, playing, playing and singing on the streets along the road.

The market is like daytime, full of brilliance.

When the two passed by a peddler carrying various masks on a bamboo pole, Su Jiu suddenly took down a white fox face mask from the bamboo pole.

The mask is made of wood, painted with white paint, and painted with red powder. It is not exquisite but quite playful. There are two animal ears cut out of fur on the top.

Su Jiu gestured to her face, and called to Xu Dao: "Master, look!"

The peddler who sold the masks saw it, and hurriedly shouted: "Both brothers buy one, it's fun!"

Xu Dao laughed, he tapped Su Jiu on the head, and said to the peddler, "I bought it." Without asking the price, he threw a piece of silver directly, and then he chose the mask from the peddler's goods.

After choosing and choosing, Xu Dao chose a ghost face mask of an evil dragon for himself.

On the other side, Su Jiu had already put on the mask by herself.Under the white fox's face, her eyes flickered.

Xu Dao looked over and found that the two fox ears on the top of the opponent's head were shaking slightly, which were not fakes, as if they were greeting him.

Su Jiu came to life in a rare way, and asked intimidatingly, "Master, do you think I look like a vixen?"

She grasped her fingers as claws, looked up at Xu Dao, one sleeve was hiding fake fox ears cut out of fur, her neck was slightly red.
