I'm looking for longevity in Liaozhai

Chapter 204
After kowtowing, the man stood up and hurried back home.

The dilapidated house was impoverished, with air leaks everywhere, and there was nothing of value in the house.

A thin, pale woman was curled up beside the bed, her body was shaking from the cold and hunger.

Lying on the bed was a comatose old man, covered with an old quilt. The old man's face was pale, without a trace of blood, and his breath was like a light in the wind and rain, which might be extinguished at any time.

With a creak, the door opened, and the cold wind rushed in from the outside.

The woman got up hastily, and used her thin body to block the cold wind for the old man.

At the same time, I looked back and found that it was my husband who I worried about day and night. After returning, his face showed a look of joy from the heart.

In order to save her mother-in-law, her husband went to the deep mountains to search for the legendary fairy grass. It has been nearly seven days.

She is very worried every day, she knows the dangers in the mountains, the more time passes, the more worried she becomes, these two days she often sheds tears alone,

I can only pray silently, hoping that the gods will bless my husband to return safely.

Seeing him come back now, I couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

"I met an immortal in the mountains, and that immortal gave me an elixir."

"God, god, is there really a god in the mountain?" His wife was also stunned after hearing this.

After all, things like immortals have never been just hearsay, and no one has ever seen it with their own eyes.

"Really, that god sent a beast to bring me back, and give the elixir to my mother first."

The man cut off a small piece of the elixir Wang Zhe gave him, melted it in warm water, and fed it to the old man little by little.Then the couple waited aside.

At this time, in the mountain village outside the house,
Among the villagers who were frightened by Laifu and fled in all directions, some boldly poked their heads out, looked around, then came out from the corner, and turned around quietly.

After confirming that the scary monster had left, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"What was that just now? It's too scary."

There's one coming out, and soon there's a second, and a third.
When people got together, from the shock at the beginning, they naturally began to talk about the man who was sent back by Laifu just now after they stabilized.

"What kind of monster was that just now?"

"I don't know, it's scary just looking at it. I guess he left after eating it?"

"But, I saw Ah Xiang get off that monster's body."

"Really, you read that right?"

"That's right."

"Yes, I saw it too."

"Also, we will know if we visit Ah Xiang's house."

At Ah Xiang's home, the husband and wife were surprised to find that the mother's originally pale face with no trace of blood on the hospital bed turned red, and even her breathing became much more stable.

The man hastily fed the rest of the elixir to his old man.

After a while, there seemed to be a faint light on the old man's body, and then his eyelids moved and he opened his eyes.

The cloudy eyes turned twice, and finally looked at the two people guarding the bed.

"Axiang, Xiaoxue."

"Mom, you're awake!" The middle-aged man shed tears of joy.

"Is Xiang at home?"

At this time, there was a shout from outside.

A man in his 40s with an unshaven beard and triangular eyes opened the door.

When he saw Ah Xiang, he was taken aback, and when he saw the old man sitting on the bed, he took a step back in shock.

Ah Xiang is very famous in the village, because he is a famous filial son, in order to save his seriously ill mother, he has tried everything.

I sold all the valuable things at home, but it didn't work.

The old man saw that he was dying.

This is something that everyone in the village knows. As a neighbor, he has visited the old man specially. A few days ago, he even saw Ah Xiang enter the mountain alone with a hatchet.

Said that he was going to find the legendary fairy grass to cure his mother,
At that time, he dismissed it, there is no fairy grass, but there are countless wolves, tigers and leopards in the mountain, and if they are not careful, they will die in it.

At that time, their mother and son will have a companion on Huangquan Road, so as not to be lonely.

But now the seriously ill old man sat up, his face was rosy, and he was still drinking porridge.

"Auntie, you, you're awake!?" The scene he saw was so shocking that he couldn't speak clearly.

"Ah, I just woke up." The old man said with a smile.

"A Xiang, you, have you really found the fairy grass?" The man suddenly thought of a possibility, and turned to look at A Xiang.

"I didn't find the fairy grass, but I met a fairy in Qinchuan. He gave me an elixir and saved my mother."

Ah Xiang is an honest person, and he didn't hide anything from his friend from the same village.

"The monster?"

"What kind of monster, you said that the beast that sent me back was sent by the immortal to send me back. It took me six days to go into the mountain, but it took me back in half a day."

Immortals, are there really immortals? !
The visiting man's mind was buzzing.

"What does the fairy look like?"

"He looks like a fairy. I don't know how long he has lived, but he looks like he is 20 years old."

"Where is that fairy?"

"I don't know." Ah Xiang shook his head.

"I don't know, how could you not know?"

"I was awakened by a fairy when I passed out in the mountains, so I don't know where he is." Ah Xiang said.

In fact, he probably knew where Wang Zhe practiced, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

He suddenly realized that if he told the place where the immortal lived, maybe many people would go to the mountain to find him and ask for elixir, which would disturb his cultivation.

That immortal should not want to be disturbed, right?

"Maybe it's fate." Ah Xiang said such a sentence.

He searched hard in the mountains for six days, experienced life and death, almost died in the deep mountains several times, and only then did he have the chance to meet that immortal.

Thinking about it now, he felt that the experience before he could meet the immortal was probably a test from the heavens.

At this time, Laifu met three people on the way back, who came to search the mountain.

There were originally four of them, but one stubbled and one died in the woods.

"This is a monster, isn't it, a spirit beast?!"

One of them pointed to Laifu.

He saw a different aura from Laifu's body, not the black aura on the monster, but a green aura.

The remaining two people were taken aback for a moment after hearing this, and then showed surprise expressions.They looked at each other.

"Caught alive!"

Spirit beasts are rare for monks.

For example, the Golden Winged Eagle is considered to be the lowest level spirit beast artificially bred.

Between the heaven and the earth, there are some natural spirit beasts, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are monsters, they are all born from nature, possessing different kinds of supernatural powers,
For example, gold-winged eagles can search in the sky, and if some spirit beasts are brought by their side, they can give early warning,
If these strange beasts can be tamed, it can bring some unexpected gains to the monk's practice.

"Go away!" Seeing this, Laifu roared angrily, echoing through the mountains and forests.

"The spiritual wisdom has been opened, and the mouth speaks out!"

This roar made these people even more determined to subdue it.

"Be careful not to injure its life."

One of them took out a talisman, chanted the magic spell, and threw it at Laifu.

set,
The talisman fell on Laifu's body, and Laifu's body shook, and the talisman instantly shattered.

"It's broken, good, good!" The monk was not angry but happy.

So several monks cast their spells around Laifu, but they were all relatively restrained and did not make any fatal moves.

But as they fought, they found that the spirit beast in front of them was far more difficult to deal with than they imagined.

The skin is rough and the flesh is thick, the speed is extremely fast, and a roar can shock people's hearts.

Accidentally, a person was bitten by him and lost an arm directly.

They found that if they didn't use all their skills, they might really be unable to deal with this spirit beast.

So they stretched out their means of housekeeping, but found that they still couldn't do anything to this spirit beast.

It actually has a magic weapon for body protection.

There is a piece of jade hanging around Laifu's neck. It is not an ordinary jade, it is a magic weapon specially made by Wang Zhe for it.

It is engraved with a special amulet spell,

But after all, Laifu has fewer methods, not as good as those three people who are both magic tricks and magic weapons.

And it can play tricks, and gradually couldn't hold it anymore, so it took the opportunity to roar, calmed down those people, then turned around and ran away.

Running towards the mountain where Wang Zhe practiced,
It can't fight them, but its master can!
From a distance, looking on the mountain, I heard the roar of the earth dog.a little impatient,

"Is there some trouble?"

Wang Zhe left the mountain in one step, followed the sound, and saw three people who were chasing Laifu.

He dodged to stop the three of them.

"This spirit beast has an owner?!" Upon seeing Wang Zhe's appearance, several people immediately realized that the spirit beast they wanted to surrender had an owner.

If a spirit beast is so powerful, wouldn't its owner be even more powerful.

Several people have retreated in their hearts.

"go!"

They turned around at the same time and were about to escape, but found that their bodies were fixed, and then fell from mid-air, flung straight on the ground.

He was thrown so badly that he almost passed out.

As the saying goes, beating a dog depends on the owner.

These people should do something to Laifu, Wang Zhe naturally didn't intend to let them go back properly.

"Laifu, why are they chasing you?"

ah ah ah ah ah ah

Wang Zhe already understood Laifu's eloquent and emotional description.

"Several of you talk about it."

"We thought it was an unowned spirit beast and wanted to subdue it, so we did it. Please forgive me."

As soon as Wang Zhe made a move, they knew that the person in front of them was definitely not something they could deal with.

The internal energy in his body was suppressed tightly, unable to move, this level of cultivation was really much higher than them.

"You are from the court, right? What is Qin Chuan doing here?"

"Come to this mountain to find a monk who escaped from the capital."

These few people were not too stubborn, and told Wang Zhe all their reasons for coming here.

"Eight Desolation Monument?!"

Wang Zhe was also a little surprised when he heard that the man had snatched the two-faced stele from Beijiang and the capital one after another.

You must know that the capital city is known as a forbidden place for monks in the world, which means that no monks can play wild in the capital city.

Because the capital has internal guards, Tianfeng Pavilion, and a large number of monks guarding the palace, this man was able to break out from the siege and snatch a monument of the Eight Desolation.

He also understood why the Eight Desolation Monument reacted abnormally when he was cultivating in the cave.

It should be that person who carried the Eight Desolation Monument and performed some kind of magical power.

"Laifu, how do you deal with them?" Wang Zhe pointed at the three people.

Laifu thought for a while, stepped forward, each paw,

The three of them flew out and hit a tree trunk or a rock, life or death unknown.

"Yo, I know I'm showing mercy, that's right." Wang Zhe nodded with a smile. Laifu didn't kill the three of them, and Wang Zhe didn't take their lives either.

"Whether you live or die, it depends on your good fortune. Let's go, come and bless!"

Wang Zhe left with Laifu, and the three of them felt that the force that suppressed them dissipated, as if the mountains that were pressing on them flew away.

"Huh, that person's cultivation is amazing!"

The three struggled to get up.

"Unexpectedly, there are such powerful people in this mountain."

They didn't dare to stay in the mountain any longer, endured the pain on their bodies, turned and left.

Not long after walking, the three fell down one after another.

His whole body was blue and black, and he was foaming at the mouth.

There was a bluish-purple mark on everyone's neck.

In addition to wild beasts, there are also some terrible poisonous insects in this mountain, which are even more deadly than those terrible beasts.

"Laifu, your skills are too bad, you can't even beat those three."

Back on the mountain, Wang Zhe began to criticize Laifu.

Wooow, oh.

"Don't quibble, weakness is the original sin."

Ow!

"In this way, I will train you from today on."

"I don't!" Laifu said anxiously after hearing this, and spoke out directly.

How beautiful is a peaceful life, it doesn't want to be beaten all day long.

"Hey, I can talk!" Wang Zhe said happily.

"Okay, great, let's start practicing today."

"I'll teach you the Five Elements Dungeon first. If you can't beat it, you can run. If you can't run, then you have to wait for death. Let's start with Earth Dungeon."

"What, why didn't Tuanzi learn it? Its cultivation level is worse than yours. Besides, why does it learn Earth Dungeon with an eagle? I will teach it the Wind Control Technique in the future."

"Very good spell!"

When Wang Zhe recited the mantra, Lai Fu listened carefully even though he looked displeased.

In the camp outside the mountains,

When it was dark, the deacon of Tianfengge who was waiting outside found that four of the people who had entered the mountain had not returned.

"There are four people missing!" He looked at the vast green hills in front of him.

It's like a huge monster, devouring them constantly.

One can imagine how difficult it is to find a person in a mountain, who is still a monk with advanced cultivation.

Just when they were worried, someone came from the capital suddenly, bringing the emperor's order to let the deputy head of the Tianfeng Pavilion, several deacons and the deputy commander of the inner guard of the Baiqi Division who were outside return to the capital.

Said there was something important to discuss.

The rest of the people continued to search for the whereabouts of the monk who broke into the capital and took away the Eight Desolation Monument.

With the departure of several masters,

Those who remained were fishing in troubled waters.
