mountain ghost

Chapter 74

"Immortal Master, Immortal Master! I understand, I understand!"

Lu Chen sat cross-legged above the sunshine stove, looking forward, looking at Lin Xiaofan who was trotting in all the way.

This guy fell into a coma after drinking Enlightenment tea last time, and didn't wake up until these few days.

His complexion looked much better, he walked like the wind, his breath was well-proportioned, and he completely lost the puffy feeling he had before.

Between the inhalation and inhalation, there was a subtle fluctuation of spiritual energy that could not be detected.

It seems that the insight is already extraordinary, and it can barely reach the point of entraining energy into the body.

'This guy, he drank half a cup of Enlightenment tea from me, and barely sensed the aura. This talent can only be said to be ordinary. '

Lu Chen shook his head secretly.

But it didn't hit too hard either.

At least Lin Xiaofan can still perceive the existence of aura, which shows that he has a bit of cultivation talent, but compared to himself, Xia Xueyi, Yinhu, etc., his cultivation talent can only be described as mediocre.

Anyway, Lu Chen didn't really intend to take him as a disciple, at most he just gave some pointers, so he didn't ask too much.

"That's right. You didn't have any foundation in practice before. Being able to perceive the aura so quickly is considered a qualification for cultivation. Now that you can see the extraordinary, then you can draw the qi into your body to cultivate spiritually. As for where you can go , it all depends on your own creation.”

Lu Chen said.

He did not intend to teach Lin Xiaofan further practice.

As far as an ordinary person is concerned, as long as he can refine qi and accumulate spirit, it is enough to strengthen his body and prolong his life. He does not need more advanced methods, and it is difficult for him to achieve much on this road.

"Hey, it's thanks to the teachings of the immortal master, who led Xiaofan into the door of cultivation, great kindness and great virtue, just like reinvention."

As he said that, it was another flattery.

On weekdays, Lu Chen would also like to hear his rainbow farts, but now that the King of Yinshan may come at any time, Lin Xiaofan doesn't come at the right time every time, it seems that every time he goes up the mountain, it is when he happens to be in trouble.

I really don't know if it's his bad luck, or he made a special trip to call the police for himself.

Lu Chen shook his head, interrupted his nonsense directly, and said: "There is no need to talk about these nonsense. You made a special trip up the mountain, what's the matter, hurry up and go down the mountain after talking."

"Yes Yes Yes."

Lin Xiaofan is not the kind of person who doesn't have eyesight, seeing that Lu Chen has no leisure to chat with him at this time, so he restrained his playfulness.

Honestly said: "Xiaofan went up the mountain this time mainly for two things, to report to the immortal master."

"Speak straight."

"The first thing is a personal matter. Excuse me, Master Xian, do you know a scholar named Li Kaiyang?"

Lin Xiaofan asked and said Li Kaiyang's name.

This surprised Lu Chen a little.

Although Li Kaiyang is also in Taiyuan Mansion now, he is just an ordinary poor scholar, how did Lin Xiaofan know his name?
Can't help asking: "This person does have some relationship with me, how did you know?"

"The immortal master really recognizes this person? Then it seems that what the mountain god Fu said is not groundless."

Mountain God Fu?
What is that?
Perhaps seeing the doubt in Lu Chen's eyes, Lin Xiaofan didn't dare to let it go, and hurriedly said: "Recently, among the literati and elegant guests in Taiyuan Mansion, there was a poem called Mountain God Fu, which was about a scholar who stayed overnight in Taihang. , the story of encountering monsters and being rescued by mountain gods, the poems are gorgeous and mysterious, and the descriptions are vivid, just like personal experience, which has attracted countless people. Rare, this kind of poems praising the gods is the first time I have seen..."

"Later, it was rumored that the author of this poem, Li Kaiyang, had a serious illness a few days ago. His body was cold, but unexpectedly, he came back from the dead. He said that he was rescued by a god, and that's why he came back to life. Now it has become a strange talk in Taiyuan Mansion..."

Hearing Lin Xiaofan's narration, Lu Chen realized that this Mountain God Fu was actually written by Li Kaiyang for himself.

This is unexpected.

However, this kind of poems praising himself is conducive to spreading his god name, making it easier for him to expand his domain in the future and spread his faith in the world, which is actually a good thing.

But this doesn't seem to have much to do with Lin Xiaofan.

"The scholar accidentally left his body, and I was indeed the one who saved him. But what does it have to do with you?"

Lu Chen didn't hide it either.

After all, with the god statue there, no matter how stupid Lin Xiaofan is, he can guess his real identity to some extent, but he didn't reveal it.

After getting along for this period of time, he can now at least be sure that Lin Xiaofan has many shortcomings, but his nature is not bad, so he didn't deliberately hide it.

Sure enough, upon hearing Lu Chen's answer, the respect on Lin Xiaofan's face grew stronger.

He even took two steps back slightly, and lowered his speaking posture.

"Coincidentally, the place that the scholar rented in Taiyuan Mansion is also my house, so Xiaofan paid a little attention to it. If what this person said is true, Xiaofan intends to take advantage of this limelight and do it for you in Taiyuan Mansion... No, it is to build a temple for the Lord of the Mountain God's Mansion. Nowadays, there are many folks who have heard of the name of the Taihang Mountain God. Building a temple at this time should be able to gain a lot of incense from believers..."

Lin Xiaofan explained his purpose.

This guy has a very flexible mind.

Li Kaiyang came back from the dead, and with the spread of the Mountain God Fu, it was time for the common people to talk about it. If a temple was built in Taihang Mansion, it would indeed attract a lot of incense believers.

This is a great thing for Lu Chen.

But there are too many issues involved.

First of all, Taiyuan Mansion is already outside Taihang Mountain. With his current power, God's Domain cannot cover the entire mountain forest, let alone the distant Taiyuan Mansion.

Furthermore, the gods have authority and territoriality.

Lu Chen has not really seen other gods in this world yet, and he is not sure whether there are other gods. It stands to reason that a big city like Taiyuan Mansion must be protected by relevant gods, at least there are lands, city gods, etc. , protecting and guarding one side, being worshiped by folk incense, rashly opening a temple here is tantamount to snatching other people's incense, which may cause a lot of unnecessary troubles.

Lu Chen didn't want to cause too much trouble just yet.

Furthermore, the distance is so far away, beyond the scope of my god domain, even if someone believes in worship and asks for help, but I have no ability to protect it, that is meaningless. Will you worship?

Therefore, although Lin Xiaofan's idea is very good, it is a bit too early.

"Taihang Mansion is an important town, where people gather and incense is flourishing. Building a temple here will involve too much. I am very touched that you have such a heart, but it is not yet time. It’s enough to enshrine the gods, and we’ll talk about the rest later.”

Hearing what he said, Lin Xiaofan also understood and nodded.

Then he said: "In addition to this matter, I mentioned to you earlier about the construction of the commercial road in the mountains. Xiaofan has already discussed it with the elders in the family, and made the corresponding official report. Now all the materials have been prepared. We are currently mobilizing manpower, and after the Ghost Festival, we can choose an auspicious day to enter the mountain..."

While he was talking, suddenly, he saw Lu Chen's expression suddenly changed.

"What did you say?"

"I said building roads..."

"Not this sentence, later!"

"Ah, I said that after the Ghost Festival..."

"Hungry Ghost Festival? There is also a ghost festival in this world?"

According to the legend, on the day of Zhongyuan, the underworld boils, the gate of ghosts opens wide, and the yin energy in the nether world will invade the yang world, which will cause a certain degree of overlap between the yin and yang worlds, so all ghosts travel at night, and strangers avoid them.

Unexpectedly, in this world, there is also the tradition of the Ghost Festival.

"July and a half, the gate of ghosts will open, and it will be a few days. No wonder I said that the old ghost of Yinshan has been waiting for this day?"

Lu Chen suddenly realized.

This King of Yinshan was cunning and cautious. He tried many times, but he didn't make a real move. Even if he killed the military division under his command, he didn't attack immediately. He should be waiting for the day of the Ghost Festival.

At that time, the gate of ghosts will open and the underworld will surge. It will indeed be the time when ghosts and ghosts are rampant!
"Lin Xiaofan, you have made a great contribution this time!"
