Elaborate on the world of mortals

Chapter 125

Outside the Temple of Earth, a gust of wind blows to the front of the temple and picks up a few fallen leaves around it.

In a small whirlwind, Yi Shuyuan showed his figure, and the leaves that circled him several times also slowly fell to the ground.

For a few days in the first month, all the temples in the city were full of incense. Even at night, Yi Shuyuan could smell a strong sandalwood fragrance outside the temple.

"Sir, I heard that the land lord here has been around for a long time, as long as Mingzhou City."

"Ah."

Yi Shuyuan responded softly, and walked towards the Earth Temple.

Many earth temples are not big, and some are even just a small hut.

The Earth Temple in Mingzhou City has a long history. After three dynasties, it has been renovated at least six times. The temple is complete with flying eaves and brackets, and it looks not much inferior to the Town God's Temple.

It's also interesting to say, at the beginning Yi Shuyuan thought that Netherworld and Heaven were in a subordinate relationship, but what Xiang Chenghuang meant was that they belonged to each other.

Before looking at Empress Shuntian, she first looked for the Landlord, and the God of the Fire Department also looked for the Landlord, so you can feel something.

And some lands were invited out from the Town God's Temple, some lands were enshrined spontaneously by the people or canonized by the court, and might be recognized by the heavenly court. In short, the relationship in Shinto is much more complicated than Yi Shuyuan imagined.

At this moment in the earth temple, the eyelids of the god statue trembled, and then a faint smoke floated out of the temple, turning into a slightly rickety old man.

Yi Shuyuan did not neglect, and greeted him first.

"Yi Shuyuan met the Lord of the Land!"

"Mr. Yi, you're being polite. It's the old man who has lost his way to welcome you. Mister, you are here because of Huan Yulang from the Ministry of Fire?"

The land lord returned the salute while asking, but his hands and feet seemed to be somewhat inconvenient.

Yi Shuyuan noticed something but didn't ask more questions, but answered the other party's questions.

"Exactly, Yi was in the process of cultivating before, and he didn't know that the gods came to look for him, so he came here to say something now that he was out of customs."

The land lord nodded slightly.

"Mr. Yi came at an unfortunate time. The first month of the first lunar month is the time when the gods tour the four directions. The gods of various ministries and paths will go to various temples and even altars in the mortal world to enjoy offerings. It may be a little inconvenient at this time."

Yi Shuyuan didn't expect this time, after all, he didn't know enough about Shinto, and he didn't know enough about some customs in this world.

"Since that's the case, I'll trouble the Landlord to take the trouble to inform you that Yi Shuyuan is waiting for you at any time."

"Okay, the old man will definitely convey the message."

As he said that, the Lord of the Land glanced at a certain place in the city, and asked again.

"Mr. Yi, there was a thunderstorm yesterday, but it was caused by the master's spell? But what evil spirits are at work?"

"It's because of the breeding of demonic energy that harassed my disciple to enter the Tao, so he cast a spell to break it."

It turned out to be protecting the disciples!Was there a demonic energy yesterday?

"This kind of lightning control method is really rare, and it really scared the old man."

Yi Shuyuan's immortal technique yesterday was actually "resisting shock". It can be shocking, or thundering, but it seems to be very similar to resisting thunder, but it is also more like thunder in the heart.

Yi Shuyuan didn't explain much, just expressed his apology.

"It's Yi's fault for disturbing everyone in the city!"

"Sir, you are being polite, do you want to come and sit in my earth temple?"

Saying this means that there is nothing to say, and Yi Shuyuan is also sensible.

"That's unnecessary, Yi has something else to do, so I'll take my leave first!"

"Well, the old man will not be far away!"

One person and one god bowed to each other, and then Yi Shuyuan left along the street, his figure was so far away that it was blurred within a few steps.

The Duke of Earth stood outside the temple and watched Yi Shuyuan disappear without going back, just frowning slightly in thought.

"Every time this Taoist Yi reveals a little bit of immortality, he is different from the ordinary way, but his immortality is also upright and mysterious. I have never heard of such an immortal in the immortal way."

The Earth Lord didn't think too much, and after returning to the temple, a stream of light containing the power of incense and fire shot towards the sky.
-
In the following days, Yi Shuyuan resumed his normal daily life. In order to facilitate the teaching of his disciples, he temporarily lived in the side courtyard of the Mo family.

After all, Yi Shuyuan himself is too special. Mo Shisheng and Qi Zhongbin have just come into contact with immortality, so they cannot do without the teaching of their masters.

In the yard, Yi Shuyuan broke apart and explained some theories in "Five Elements Miaoshu" according to his own understanding.

"The five elements are not limited to metal, water, wood, fire, and earth, but also extend to various zodiac signs. For example, thunder belongs to wood, and the air of water brings thunder, which is also the category of aquatic wood. If you want to master the imperial law, the principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint maybe understand"

Mo Shisheng was wearing a thick and large flowered jacket, with his hands propped on the stone table, dragging his chubby face, his feet hanging in the air, hooking each other, half understanding.

Qi Zhongbin unfolded a book on the side, listening, thinking, and memorizing. He could understand most of these words, but he realized that his so-called understanding was far from the real comprehension.

After listening to the Five Elements for a long time, Qi Zhongbin asked later.

"Master, what about illusion?"

Qi Zhongbin and Yu Po suffered a lot from illusion at the beginning, in fact, the most difficult thing to deal with in decades is often illusion.

After a little thought, Yi Shuyuan replied:

"The so-called illusion is not just as simple as the literal understanding. As the saying goes, illusions cannot be born when the mind is clear. Illusions are not just simple squinting, but at least include blindness and mental tricks, cholera, confusion, and even the breeding of evil spirits. "

"Using various variables such as things, air, scenery, taste, temperature, thinking, time, etc. to cooperate, various differences are formed, each has its own target and its own rules, and among them, the most insidious is the disorder of the mind."

"As the saying goes, if the mind is not right, it can be used as a substitute, and it can be used as a substitute for others."

As Yi Shuyuan said, he looked at Mo Shisheng who was on the side. The little boy's head was already shaking up and down, his eyes were slowly closing and opening them forcibly.
Qi Zhongbin also followed Yi Shuyuan's line of sight to one side, and couldn't help but smile. This senior brother who is not too old for his great-grandson is still too young after all.

Yi Shuyuan sighed softly, the little doll is cute, so let's treat it as a playful preschool education.

"Zhong Bin."

"At Master!"

Qi Zhongbin, who was watching Mo Shisheng, trembled when he heard the sound, and responded quickly.

"You remember clearly, and you will teach your brother more in the future. Children are naturally sleepy and playful. Shi Sheng is destined not to learn much these days."

"Disciple obey!"

That’s why it’s good to have a mature and prudent apprentice. If you order something to make people feel at ease, even if there is something Qi Zhongbin can’t do, Yi Shuyuan believes that it must not be because of his attitude or intelligence, but more because of his lack of strength. .

When it comes to illusions, Qi Zhongbin also asked the question that he has been itching for a while.

"Master, change is also an illusion, right? For example, when you appeared last time, you looked different."

This happened to scratch Yi Shuyuan's itch.

Showing off in front of outsiders, Yi Shuyuan would feel embarrassed, but he didn't take it into account in front of his apprentice.

"Change does not necessarily mean illusion, but it is true that most of the so-called changes are illusions, after all, the shape is hard to change"

"A very important symbol in the cultivation of monsters is transformation. Once this form is born, it means a rebirth, and it also has the foundation of the spirit of all things in the human body. This change is born after many calamities. This deity's form is definitely not an illusion!"

Qi Zhongbin nodded, and then saw his master smile "hehe" inscrutablely.

"As for the appearance of your master and me in the wonton shop before, it is not an illusion. This is the result of the mystery of the original immortal method, and it is a real change."

Even though Qi Zhongbin doesn't have a deep understanding of immortality, he understands that this immortality is absolutely extraordinary!

"Then master, can you have more than one deity form?"

Qi Zhongbin's eyes widened.

After all, monsters have transformed into human beings just once in all their calamities, and they changed into human beings in the same form as the original form of monsters, but the master said that his is not an illusion
Yi Shuyuan stroked his chin and thought for a moment.

"If you really want to say that, it doesn't seem unreasonable, but there are still some differences. If the mana is exhausted, it should still change back."

Yi Shuyuan added a sentence in his heart: Unless the Tiangang Transformation and the Earth Fiend Transformation are running at the same time!

"Won't monsters also show their original form after death?"

When Qi Zhongbin said this, Yi Shuyuan nodded with a smile.

"It's true when you die, but if you just take the monster's magic power as an example, there are several situations. Some may return to the monster's body, and some may not return!"

"Why is this?"

This question is more complicated, and Yi Shuyuan himself only understands the general idea.

"It can only be said that the attributes of demons, spirits, and monsters are too complicated, and even a teacher can't fully understand them. You should explore them yourself when you have a chance in the future."

Yi Shuyuan said that he had heard footsteps approaching outside the courtyard, so he spoke.

"Okay, that's it for today, let's go to the dining hall."

"It's Master!"

Qi Zhongbin responded solemnly, and Mo Shisheng, who was almost asleep, was also startled, wiped his saliva and cupped his hands like his junior, and gave a childish cry.

"It's Master!"

Before the owner of the footsteps entered the courtyard, Hui Mian had already rushed in first, jumped onto the table, looked at the drool on Shi Sheng's sleeve, and looked at Qi Zhongbin's many notebooks, so he probably knew what was going on.

"Sir, today's dishes are rich, and there are lamb chops."

It was also at this time that Master Mo went to the entrance of the courtyard in person, saw that there seemed to be no lectures inside, and walked in.

"Mr. Yi, Master Qi, you can have lunch, have a baby, have you studied hard?"

Shi Sheng jumped off the stool, ran and threw himself into his father's arms.

"I'm serious!"

Yi Shuyuan and Qi Zhongbin looked at each other, smiled and shook their heads.
-
Sure enough, as Hui Mian said, today's food is very rich, but during the time of eating in Mofu, there is basically no day that is not rich.

The chefs of the Mo family cook in different ways every day, unless Yi Shuyuan orders to be lighter, otherwise they will show off all the eighteen skills of being a cook.

Facing this table of dishes, Yi Shuyuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion, it's good to be rich.

During this period of time, both Mo Shisheng and Qi Zhongbin had a great appetite. This is actually equivalent to strengthening the body during martial arts. When absorbing the spiritual energy of the world and not being proficient, food supplements can still play a role.

As for Yi Shuyuan and Hui Mian, if they really want to open up and eat, their appetites are not small.

While Yi's family was having a hot meal, the guard at the door suddenly rushed to report.

"Master, master—someone is looking for Mr. Yi!"

The servant ran outside the dining hall with a door open, which also attracted the attention of everyone inside.

"Who is it?"

Master Mo asked a question, and the servant answered with lingering fear.

"A very tall man, with a beard that exploded like a needle, and his eyebrows raised, he looked fierce. I just took a second look, and now I feel scared."

Yi Shuyuan looked towards the front yard, as if he could smell a faint scent of incense.

"Did he announce his name?"

When Yi Shuyuan asked this question, Jia Ding nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, he said that his name is Cao Yugao, and he made a special trip to visit Mr. Yi. Mr. Yi, you have to be careful."

Cao Yugao?
Yi Shuyuan hadn't heard of it. He looked at Hui Mian, and the little mink holding a lamb chop obviously didn't know about it either. Qi Zhongbin was the only one on the table who opened his mouth in surprise.

"Master, don't you know?"

"It should be a god, but I don't know which one it is."

There are so many god names, and Yi Shuyuan didn't recite them on purpose. It's impossible to know all of them, but why isn't Huan Yulang here?

Qi Zhongbin swallowed, and said in a low voice.

"Master, Cao Yugao is one of the five Thunder Generals of the Thunder Department. Warlocks sometimes read his name when casting spells."

Leibu?

Yi Shuyuan probably understood what was going on, and he suddenly felt a little bit empathetic with Xianxiu's saying that he hated Tianting a little bit.
