The Heavens: Cross the World

Chapter 361 Buying the Design
In Guangping County, Feng Ji looked at the unexplained ghost in front of him.

In Yin Hun's mouth, he was still mumbling to himself, saying that he was the City God.

"This person has obviously lost his intelligence. I'm afraid that even if he searches for his soul, he won't be able to find anything useful. He may even die immediately after searching for his soul."

"It's better to keep it and go to Guobei County. Maybe someone can recognize this person's soul."

Feng Ji thought to himself, and at the same time thought that in Guobei County, Taoist Qingfeng was now serving as the city god. This person must have a great relationship with Taoist Qingfeng.

"This Qingfeng Taoist has a big problem. I don't know what his cultivation level is."

Feng Ji's eyes flashed slightly, he suppressed the doubts in his heart, and thought of the two flower demons Xiangyu and Jiangxue.

"The fairyland Hibiscus City mentioned by these two flower demons may have a way to heal the injuries in my body, but I don't know what the strength of the aunt they mentioned is."

"Based on the cultivation level of these two flower demons in the foundation-building stage, the aunt they mentioned must be at least a pill-forming monster to rule a cave. If she is just an ordinary pill-forming monster cultivator, with my body-refining cultivation level, she can also I'm afraid that the demon cultivator will not be easy to deal with."

Thinking of this, Feng Ji immediately stood up: "Why don't we take down these two flower demons first and find a chance to visit this so-called fairyland Furong City in person."

Feng Ji opened the door and saw Lin Da already waiting outside.

At this time, the sky was already bright, Lin laughed and said: "I would like to pay my respects to the young master."

Feng Ji nodded and asked: "Lin Da, do you know anything about Guobei County?"

"Guobei County? Sir, where are you going? That place is inaccessible."

When Lin Da heard the words "Guo Beixian", his expression suddenly changed slightly and he quickly began to persuade.

Feng Ji raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why, why can't we go?"

"Li Jianqian, the magistrate of Guobei County, is known as 'eyes open when seeing money'. Guobei County is in a mess under his governance. This person only knows how to collect money to do things, and the people there have long been in dire straits."

Feng Ji said calmly: "I don't want to go to the government, so what does it have to do with me?"

Lin Da added: "The people in that place are in dire straits. Bandits and gangsters like to gather there. It's a mixed bag of fish and dragons. It's very dangerous. And if you want to go to Guobei County, you have to pass through Lanruo Temple!"

Feng Ji suddenly paused, turned to look at Lin Da, and asked: "Lanruo Temple?"

"Yeah, it's rumored that Lanruo Temple is haunted. It's spooky during the day, and it's even scarier at night. I heard that many people have disappeared inside."

Feng Ji looked strange, and he finally remembered.

"Lanruo Temple... Guobei County... Liaozhai?"

"I asked why the name Guobei County is so familiar. It turns out to be this world."

Feng Ji suddenly thought of the two female flower demons, Xiangyu and Jiangxue, and his eyes suddenly flashed. He secretly thought that these two female flower demons were also the heroines of a certain story in the world of Liaozhai.

It's a pity that I haven't read the complete Liaozhai, and the only stories I'm familiar with are a few stories like "A Chinese Ghost Story".

"Since there is Lanruo Temple, I'm afraid that Dryad Grandma and Nie Xiaoqian are among them, so is Yan Chixia also in Lanruo Temple?"

His eyes lit up slightly. During this period, he had been looking for monks among humans. Yan Chixia was undoubtedly an extremely outstanding master among humans.

He recalled that in the original plot, it seemed that Yan Chixia had already cultivated the soul, and could even get the soul out of the body!

You must know that the supernatural power of the soul that comes out of the body can only be used when you step into the spirit form.

In other words, Yan Chixia is probably a cultivator of the Divine Sword!

"If Yan Chixia is a cultivator of the God-Transformation Sword, then wouldn't Grandma Dryad also want to be close to the God-Transformation Cultivator?"

"No, Grandma Dryad is obviously afraid of Yan Chixia. In the original plot, Yan Chixia was in charge of Lanruo Temple, and Grandma Dryad didn't dare to provoke her. From this point of view, Yan Chixia is probably stronger than Grandma Dryad. "

"Of course, it's probably just above the first line. Otherwise, given Yan Chixia's nature, how could she not conquer demons?"

Feng Ji pondered, if this was the case, Lanruo Temple would be in great danger, and with his current level of cultivation, he might not be able to escape unscathed in the past.

"Is it possible to walk through the woods where Lanruo Temple is located during the day?"

Lin Da's face changed slightly and he said awkwardly: "Sir, if you have to go to Guobei County, I won't go."

"Although it is possible to pass through that forest during the day, it depends on God. If it is sunny, it is indeed possible. However, if it is cloudy and rainy, the mountain road will be difficult to walk. I am afraid that I will not be able to get out before dark."

"No one dares to stay in that forest after dark anyway."

Feng Ji did not embarrass him and said: "I understand."

"Young master, do you want to visit Guangyun Temple today? I'm familiar with it, too." Lin Da asked.

Feng Ji said: "Don't worry, I have some things to do. You are waiting for me here."

After saying that, Feng Ji strode towards the direction of the flower demon in the backyard.

As soon as I walked over, I saw a lot of noise in the courtyard, and many people gathered around the flower garden.

Feng Ji walked over and saw a noble man wearing a black robe, holding a fan, and kept saying: "What a beautiful white peony, Brother He, what do you think?"

"It is indeed beautiful. This peony can be regarded as the most beautiful bunch in this courtyard."

"Brother Lan, I think this peony is so beautiful. It really shouldn't be allowed to be played with and admired in public. It should be taken back to the private house and appreciated slowly."

When the noble young master in black robe heard the words, he couldn't help but nod his head, and said, "What Brother He said is absolutely true."

He immediately turned around and shouted: "Go and call the Taoist priest who manages the flower garden."

A boy ran out quickly, and after a while, the Taoist priest from the Taoist temple rushed over.

"What is the name of this priest?"

"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, I am a poor Taoist in Chengu. I have met the young master."

The noble young master in black robe smiled and said: "My surname is Lan, I am from Jimo County. I came here because of my name."

"It turns out to be Mr. Lan..."

Taoist Master Chengu's mind suddenly moved, and he immediately thought that the Lan family in Jimo County was a well-known local family, and this noble young man was probably a member of the Lan family because of his style.

I couldn't help but feel a little more enthusiastic at the moment.

Mr. Lan smiled and said, "Of all the flowers in your garden, I love this peony the most. I want to buy it and plant it in my garden at home."

Taoist Master Chengu's heart was moved, but a look of embarrassment appeared on his face, and he said: "Master Lan, we outsiders don't plant these flowers for the sake of selling them for money. This is a matter of elegance..."

"I'll give you ten taels of silver."

Mr. Lan interrupted Taoist Master Chen Gu’s words.

Taoist Master Chen Gu’s expression remained unchanged, and he smiled and said, “It’s really not about money…”

"20 taels!"

"Master Lan, you have misunderstood Pindao. This peony is one of the three wonders of our Qingfeng Temple. It cannot be measured by money..."

"50 taels!"

Mr. Lan interrupted him.

Taoist Master Chengu's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

However, he still endured his temper and said: "Mr. Lan, if I sell flowers to you today, wouldn't it mean that I am greedy for money by selling flowers? The reputation of my Qingfeng Temple..."

"100 taels! Master Chengu, this is my last bid, 100 taels of silver. Go and ask, who would spend such a big price on a flower?"

"There are so many peonies in your garden. I want just one, but you can't bear to part with it?"

"This is 100 taels. Is it enough to buy your flower garden?"

Taoist Master Chen Gu looked at Mr. Lan and saw that the other man's face was unhappy and impatient.

He immediately laughed: "In that case, I have thanked Mr. Lan for the 100 taels of incense money on behalf of Qingfeng."

He immediately turned his head and said to the little Taoist boy next to him: "Master Lan donated a hundred taels of silver to my Qingfeng Temple. This temple gave me this white peony. It is considered fate. Why don't you hurry up and dig out this peony?" ?”

The little Taoist boy was astonished, but he immediately understood and nodded quickly: "Yes, Master."

Others also looked at Taoist Master Chengu in surprise.

There were all scholars present, and everyone immediately smiled knowingly.

Obviously buying flowers is too unpleasant, but if Chen Gu Taoist priest said it was sending flowers, the meaning would naturally be different.

Scholars should be so elegant.

Mr. Lan also burst out laughing and said, "You Taoist priest are really interesting."

Mr. He on the other side also smiled and said: "Brother Lan loves flowers, and the Taoist priest is also deeply moved. This situation is worthy of a poem."

Young Master Lan laughed: "Brother He, what's your masterpiece? Come on and sing."

Mr. He smiled and was about to recite a poem when suddenly a man squeezed into the crowd and roared loudly: "Stop! Stop it, you can't dig this flower, you can't take it away!"

Everyone looked over immediately and saw that the person coming was also dressed as a scholar.

The scholar was none other than Scholar Huang. He rushed into the crowd, grabbed the shovel from the Taoist boy's hand, pushed the Taoist boy down, and swung the shovel in his hand to drive away the crowd.

He roared angrily: "Go away, what do you know? You don't understand flowers at all. Go away, go away, I won't allow you to dig her up!"

Seeing this, Taoist Master Chengu couldn't help but frown slightly: "Master Huang, what are you doing?"

Mr. Lan's face darkened and he shouted: "Bold, who are you? How dare you stop me?"

Huang Shusheng was not afraid and said angrily: "This peony was born here and grew here. Once the roots are dug out, it will end its life. Is it just because of your own selfishness? How can you love a flower? It's clear. It’s just greed!”

He turned around and scolded Taoist Master Chen Gu, and roared: "And you, you are an outsider after all, but you actually sold one of the three wonders of the Taoist temple for yellow and white things. How can you be embarrassed?"

Taoist Master Chengu's face was gloomy and he said in a cold voice: "Master Huang, I have already said that this is a gift from Qingfeng Temple to Mr. Lan. When did you say you sold it?"

"Bah, do you think I can't hear it? He gave you a hundred taels of silver, and you are going to sell this peony, and you are still pretending to talk about incense money? You are all shameless people!"

Taoist Master Chengu was angry and scolded: "Master Huang, this is my Qingfeng Temple, and these flowers also belong to my Qingfeng Temple. What should I do with them? Is it your turn to speak?"

Mr. Lan also said: "Taoist Priest, what nonsense are you talking to him about? Just fight him out. Come here!"

Immediately, several servants stood up. "Get out."

"Yes, young master!"

Suddenly several young boys with big muscles and round waists rushed over. No matter how hard Scholar Huang struggled, he was pressed to the ground in a few moments.

He cried and yelled, but was dragged out like a chicken.

The Taoist boy picked up the shovel and was about to continue digging.

Suddenly, for some unknown reason, a branch of the winter-resistant tree nearby suddenly fell down with a loud crash.

The Taoist boy suddenly let out an ouch, and was hit by a branch on the back of his hand, and he immediately saw blood.

He quickly dropped the shovel, covered his hands and shouted.

Upon seeing this, Taoist Master Chengu couldn't help but frown. He looked at the winter-resistant tree and said, "This winter-resistant tree has not been pruned for a long time, and its branches have grown so long."

As he said that, he turned around and shouted: "Have someone bring scissors over here."

"Yes, Master."

The winter-resistant tree suddenly began to sway, as if it were trembling.

However, no one else noticed this scene, and they were still discussing the white peonies with great interest.

Feng Ji looked at this scene and knew that it was the banshee named Jiangxue who was causing trouble.

"Sir, please, save us."

Suddenly, a voice came from Feng Ji's mind.

Feng Ji's expression changed and he looked at the winter-resistant tree.

This voice was the voice of the banshee Jiangxue, who was transformed into the winter tree last night.

His expression remained unchanged, and he asked through a message: "You two are both foundation-building monsters. How can you deal with just a few mortals?"

Jiangxue cried: "We are just foundation-building flower demons. We need to be supported by spiritual energy to transform. However, we all have magic power cultivated by breathing out the power of the lunar moonlight. Naturally, we cannot transform during the day, so we have no magic power." , cannot be used."

Feng Ji suddenly raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, and asked: "What do you mean? After you flower demons build the foundation, you can't reveal yourself in the daytime? Use your magical powers."

"No, our main body is weak. Even if we succeed in building the foundation, we can only transform at night."

Jiangxue cried endlessly.

Feng Ji asked: "Why is this?"

"The sunlight during the day is filled with the power of the Sun's Law, which will do great harm to monsters like us. Once transformed, they will be burned by the power of the Sun and unable to maintain their form."

Feng Ji was stunned. The monsters in this Liaozhai world seemed to be different from the monsters in other worlds.

Feng Ji remembered that monsters in the Maoshan world could not only appear and appear at night, but also transform during the day.

That day when he first met Qiu Chunan in the deep mountains, he had dealt with a cockroach monster. The monster had transformed into a banshee and seduced Qiu Chunan.

Who would have thought that the banshee in the Chinese fairy tale world could not change shape during the day?

No, it's not impossible, it takes shape during the day and will be weakened by the power of the sun.

Feng Ji recalled the stories in Liaozhai and the situations in film and television works.

It seems that this is indeed the case. In the Liaozhai, it seems that many monsters and ghosts can only appear at night.

"No, it seems there are some who go out during the day and still live with human scholars."

Feng Ji remembered that there seemed to be many fox girls who were married to humans and could appear and disappear during the day.

"Could it be that they have practiced some other secret method?"

Feng Ji frowned slightly, having not yet figured out the rules of cultivation in this world.

He suppressed his thoughts and said through a message: "It's okay if you want me to take action. From now on, you two demons must recognize me as your master!"

Na Jiangxue suddenly fell silent.

Obviously she doesn't want to.

At this time, the Taoist boy had already come over with tree shears and started to cut off the extra branches of the winter-resistant tree.

Seeing that the Taoist boy's scissors were already reaching for the branch of a winter-resistant tree, Jiangxue finally couldn't help it anymore.

She sighed: "Jiangxue is willing to recognize the young master as his master. Please also ask the young master to save me and Xiangyu."

Feng Ji nodded and said, "Okay!"

At that moment, Feng Ji walked towards the Naidong tree and shouted: "Stop!"

The Taoist boy was stunned, looked at Feng Ji, and asked doubtfully: "What advice does this young master have?"

Feng Ji said calmly: "This winter-resistant tree is good. Taoist priest, I am also willing to invest a hundred taels. Can you sell this winter-resistant tree to me?"

Taoist Master Chen Gu looked at Feng Ji in surprise, looked him up and down, and said with a smile, "What is your surname, this young master?"

He almost asked, 'Who are you?'

Feng Ji said calmly: "Taoist Master, do you want to ask about the origin of fate? I am willing to pay a hundred taels of silver, but can't I buy this winter-resistant tree?"

"If Mr. Lan invests a hundred taels, can't he buy this peony?"

Taoist Master Chengu's eyes flashed slightly and he said with a smile: "The winter-resistant tree is one of the three wonders of this Taoist temple. The white peony is destined to Mr. Lan, but the winter-resistant tree may not be destined to Mr. Lan."

Feng Ji smiled: "Does the Taoist think you have too little money?"

"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, I am a monk. How can I care about things outside of myself? No fate means no fate."

Feng Ji just smiled, stopped talking nonsense to him, and took two steps forward.

Immediately, in full view of everyone, he punched out!
Boom!

In an instant, everyone's face trembled, and the terrifying fist wind directly swept up everyone present.

Bang bang bang...!
In an instant, Mr. Lan and Mr. He were knocked backwards by the fist wind and smashed directly into the grass!

Ouch, the screams are endless.

The Chengu Taoist priest was also thrown so hard that his front teeth were knocked out. He fell on the steps and several of his bones were broken.

His eyes widened, his face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Feng Ji said calmly: "Are you the one who has the final say about fate?"

Taoist Master Chen Gu’s face was suddenly full of horror.

"You...you...how dare you commit murder and hurt people in broad daylight..."

Feng Ji smiled: "What do you mean by committing murder and hurting others? As a monk, you should say that you should have suffered this disaster today."

He turned around and with a stroke of his hand, the ground suddenly cracked, revealing a huge ravine.

Feng Ji gently grabbed it and immediately dug out the winter-resistant tree with its roots and soil.

He immediately waved his hand and stuffed it into the storage bag.

Then he walked to the white peony and dug out the white peony with the same stroke.

After doing all this, he turned around and walked directly to the front yard.

Lin Da had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw this, he quickly said: "Sir, where are we going?"

Feng Ji said calmly: "Go to Guangyun Temple."

……

In Huya Mountain, Taoist Qingfeng frowned and walked out of Mrs. Xue's house.

He recalled the news he had learned from Mrs. Xue.

"Feng Ji...he's a half-way Taoist, but he's still a body-refining monk."

At this time, a burst of green smoke suddenly rose from the ground, and the Tuigong surnamed Cui came out and shouted: "Greetings to the Master Dianshi, the little god found out that the news about the monk surnamed Feng came from the Xin family. "

"The Xin family was looking for a human companion for Xin Shisi Niang, but they didn't want to find someone named Feng, and they were almost wiped out by that person."

Cui Tugong said with a smile, seeming to take pleasure in his misfortune.

Taoist Qingfeng's expression changed, and he immediately asked: "That man has become the fourteenth mother of the Xin family?"

"Uh, how could that happen? How could anyone fall in love with that little foxy girl?"

"Then why did he let them go in the end?" Taoist Qingfeng asked.

The Tugong surnamed Cui was suddenly stunned and a little puzzled, and said: "This... this... is strange."

Qingfeng Taoist thought thoughtfully and said, "I'm afraid this person named Feng has something to do with the Xin family."

His eyes flickered and he suddenly laughed: "Why don't we try him on the Xin family."

The Tugong surnamed Cui asked in confusion: "What do you mean, Master Dianshi?"

Taoist Qingfeng smiled and said: "Did you know that Mrs. Xue has a nephew also named Feng?"

The Tuigong surnamed Cui nodded and said: "Little God knows, it seems that his surname is Feng, and his name is Feng Chengzong."

"I heard that this person is frivolous, debauched, and drunk. But because he is Mrs. Xue's grandnephew, all the demons and ghosts around Huya Mountain have been warned, and no one dares to provoke him."

Taoist Qingfeng laughed: "Feng Chengzong, okay, what do you think about letting a girl from the Xin family marry him?"

The Tugong surnamed Cui was shocked and couldn't help but said: "I'm afraid the Xin family won't want to do it. The little god Xin Sisi also knows that she has a bit of a fiery temper. I'm afraid she won't look down on this young master."

"Haha, don't you look down on me? It's better not to look down on me. Let's see if she will beg this Feng Ji!"
