Chapter 2578: Selling Skills for Survival
"I didn't expect you to have some skills!"

Jinchang was very interested in how Zhang Xuezhou turned so many people into dead bodies and wanted to know how Zhang Xuezhou accomplished this.

When Zhang Xuezhou was hiding in the shadows and swaying back and forth, his clumsy shadow-following technique made Jinchang too embarrassed to watch.

He forced himself to praise him and then signaled Zhang Xuezhou to work hard.

"Excuse me, I didn't practice bone-softening techniques when I was a kid, so I can't be as smooth as you!"

Jinchang is like a twisting snake in the shadow, and can use the shadow to achieve invisibility.

Zhang Xuezhou's body was as stiff as a piece of wood.

Not to mention cross-school academics, even the techniques within the Yin-Yang School are not so easy to cross.

If you do not train your bones and flesh to be soft and flexible when you are young, it will be difficult to perfect the art of following your shadow later on.

Moreover, this technique requires constant physical training to prevent the bones and flesh from becoming rigid and difficult to practice.

For a person like Zhang Xuezhou, it is obviously impossible for him to spend his entire life on the art of following like a shadow. What's more, he changes his body every twelve days, which causes his body to lie flat. The result of working hard for three days and drying the net for two days is that he cannot get in.

Zhang Xuezhou used the technique of following the shadow to hide but not move, and his technique was at a disgraceful level.

But Zhang Xuezhou's method also explained why he could go to the Huainan Palace late at night, and why he could feed the medium of corpse-eating technique to so many people, giving Jinchang another explanation.

"It's useless to be smooth and flowing," Jin Chang said unhappily, "I have been scolded for many years, saying that I am just a waste in the shadows, a dog thief who cannot stand the light of day!"

"Use the puppet string to poke their mouths and make them speak more clearly," Zhang Xuezhou advised.

"Forget it, forget it, I've already killed them, I won't bother with those dead people!"

Jinchang waved his hand.

Many people cursed him, but these were basically their last words before death. Few people could survive after cursing him.

But after being scolded for so many years, Jinchang still didn't feel very happy.

He pulled a puppet string, and his body floated behind Zhang Xuezhou's horse as light as the wind, chatting with Zhang Xuezhou from time to time.

"When will you tell me the last part of the Yin-Yang Great Compassion Nine Heavens Curse?"

After riding these zombie-like mounts for more than forty miles, Jinchang could not help but ask Zhang Xuezhou.

"As long as we leave Huainan State, we'll be fine," Zhang Xuezhou said. "You are familiar with the roads here. Please give us some guidance so that we can leave earlier!"

Zhang Xuezhou and Rong Tianding are good at flying and can fly in all directions. They are also familiar with the official roads in Huainan, but the Huainan Palace has sent too many people to search for Changxing.

Either they need to avoid each other, or they need to rush forward, or they need Jinchang's help and use their identities to maintain normal passage.

Zhang Xuezhou obviously asked Jinchang for help to save trouble.

He was not afraid of losing face and kept agreeing with Jinchang all the way, while insisting on holding on to the only thing he could offer.

"You are just so worried about your uncle," Jinchang sighed.

"I am sure you will trust me, uncle. You know what, I actually know some big news that will be good for you," said Zhang Xuezhou.

"Don't brag," Jinchang said, "Master uncle is not a fool, you can't fool Master uncle with those few words!"

"No kidding, this is the truth," Zhang Xuezhou said, "I am now a person close to His Majesty, and I know some of the secrets of the palace. Any one of them is a secret unknown to the outside world!"

"Then you say, if it works out, I'll take you down a small road that's not patrolled, but if it doesn't, you'll just run around randomly." Jinchang said, "If you're caught and tortured into confessing that little secret, my uncle won't be interested!"

"There is a secret place in our Chang'an City that has not been visited by anyone for a hundred years. It is exactly the same as the secret place of our Yin-Yang family," said Zhang Xuezhou.

"Do you know the entrance?" Jin Chang asked curiously.

"I don't know," Zhang Xuezhou shook his head repeatedly.

"Then what are you talking about?" Jin Chang said disdainfully: "You ordered me to go to a place like this to find the entrance. I might as well go directly to the Yin-Yang Secret Land!"

"That also requires our secret place to be useful," Zhang Xuezhou sighed, "When I went to Mount Tai, I didn't forget to visit our house. A man named Yuan Quezhong and a man named Fu Sima brought people into the secret place. I suspect that the secret place has been completely ruined by them. They might be waiting for us to come!"

"what?"

Jinchang was shocked.

He just felt that what Zhang Xuezhou said was not some big news that would be beneficial to him, but an announcement of very bad news.

Zhang Xuezhou was not clear about the identities of these two people, but Jinchang had heard a little about them and knew that they were great monks from the Immortal Court.

Although the people in the Immortal Palace may avoid the world, the things under their feet are still very positive.

After eavesdropping on the relevant news, the Tushita Palace participated in the operation and even broke into the Yin-Yang Secret Land. "Why did you brag so much?" Jin Chang said with a headache, "This attracted the immortal monks to come down to the world for inspection. It's okay for them to inspect, but the key is that they broke into the secret land. Even if they can't get out after entering, it will definitely ruin our Yin-Yang Secret Land. I'm afraid that the spiritual energy that has risen for a hundred years will be wasted by these people!"

"Well, I didn't have anything else to brag about at the time, and I didn't see you saying anything to help me!"

"I was..."

"You can't let me bring trouble to the court. I still want to live in Chang'an City!"

……

Once Zhang Xuezhou got involved, things would never end.

Even though Jinchang knew that Zhang Xuezhou was unreliable, he really wanted the information Zhang Xuezhou provided.

Sometimes many things in the world are just a matter of information asymmetry.

Everyone knows that secret places that no one uses are good, but where to find the secret places is a science. It is not as reliable to search in a fixed area as to try your luck everywhere.

Zhang Xuezhou's words not only helped Jinchang avoid disaster, but also gave him a choice of places to go.

Jinchang stretched out his hand lazily and pointed in the direction.

For Jinchang, who followed the King of Huainan, he not only knew where the great monk who was searching for Changxing was, he also knew where the Huainan army was searching.

If he made some calculations, Jinchang would know where these people are today and where they will go tomorrow.

It seemed that there were Huainan's troops everywhere around them, but as long as they followed the route suggested by Jinchang, they would almost be in an uninhabited area.

"This corpse-transformed horse is not afraid of being exhausted to death, and it can run steadily. We will only be out of the border of Huainan after running here and there for a day. After passing this post station, Uncle Master will not see you off. Please explain the Great Compassion Nine Heavens Mantra to me clearly, and we can say that we will part ways in peace and meet again in Chang'an City!"

"No problem, Uncle Master, you are the best. We didn't even see a ghost during this whole journey, and we walked on the official road for half a day. This is all thanks to Uncle Master's ability!"

"Don't flatter me. My uncle has exceeded his time limit and needs to go back to report. It's going to be quite troublesome!"

"Then let me tell you, after entering the realm of magical powers..."

Jinchang didn't want to take even one more step and stopped immediately after stepping out of the Huainan border.

Everyone had no choice but to rest. Those who could find some food would do so. If not, they would just drink some water to fill their stomachs.

Rong Tianding was controlling the mount, while Zhang Xuezhou was reciting the contents of the Yin-Yang Great Compassion Nine Heavens Mantra.

In the case of missing parts, Zhang Xuezhou also wanted to see how Jinchang would make up for the relevant parts and whether he could move beyond the "Ren Dan" practice method.

He spoke sincerely and what he cut off was also real.

"Why does the following content seem a little weird...Who is it?"

In the extremely brain-burning thinking, Jin Chang frowned, and his body floated out like green smoke, grabbing a slightly agitated mount.

Before Jinchang could reach out to grab it, several gray-white poisonous snakes roared and crawled out from under his mount, making bursts of hissing sounds.

"Friend Jin, long time no see. I hope you can help me. I will definitely reward you handsomely in the future!"

A low voice of Hong Ku came from under the horse's belly, which made Jin Chang's eyelids jump, and then he looked surprised.

"It seems that you are being hunted and cannot escape. I would like to ask if you can tell others about your method of flying and hiding your body?" Jin Chang said quickly.

"can!"

"Can I learn?"

"can!"

"Can you tell me?"

"can!"

After Hong Ku said the three words "can", Jin Chang had already floated out and faced Tian You who was most likely chasing after him.

"Teacher, you bought your life very skillfully!"

When Zhang Xuezhou and Rong Tianding quickly gathered everyone to mount their horses and leave, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but approach Hong Ku and complain.

"You're also very skillful!"

Hong Ku stuck his head out from under the horse's belly and replied to Zhang Xuezhou in a bad mood.

Before Jinchang noticed, Hong Ku had already listened for a while and knew very well that Zhang Xuezhou was also relying on selling his skills to make a living.
