People are among the Eight Immortals, starting from Painted Skin Ghost

Chapter 332: The water official’s edict to relieve calamity; the whereabouts of another four divine beads [Please subscribe]

All the people saw that Old Man Wen was safe and sound on the monster's back.

I didn't see him getting angry, so I couldn't help but believe him a little bit.

At this time, some brave people saw something new and got on Henggong Yao's back to have a good walk.

He even squinted his eyes, mustered up the courage, and looked at the Henggong demon with his head buried in the river. What was his expression?

I hope he is not upset, he just lowers his head and takes a few sips of river water, and he immediately feels at ease.

Shout to the people below:

"Everyone, come up."

"Since this monster has been subdued by the fairy, it will naturally not cause trouble."

"The fairy is still here, there is no need to be afraid!"

"..."

After hearing this and seeing that many people were in peace, the people of Shihu Town finally put aside their worries and began to run swarm towards the back of the male monster.

Some caravans also moved all the goods that had been stored here for a long time.

In less than a stick of incense, the back of the male demon was full of people.

Seeing this, He Xiugu slightly dimmed her face and said:

"You can go."

"Those who haven't gone up, please wait for the next trip."

Soon, the Henggong demon's tail swung and carried these hundreds of people and swam toward the other shore.

Its speed is much faster than ordinary cargo ships. It can reach dozens of miles of waterway in less than half a stick of incense.

This was because Henggongyao considered the feelings of the people above him. It was easy to lose his balance when the wind was strong, and there was a risk of the goods being blown down, so he did not swim hard.

otherwise.

With its ability, it can reach dozens of miles of waterway in less than ten seconds.

An hour passed.

Henggongyao carried passengers and goods again and sailed from the other side of the river to Shihu Town.

When it came, it saw that He Xiugu was still at the ferry and had not left.

It turned out that He Xiugu was afraid that this evil demon would be defeated by her before, and she was dissatisfied.

At the moment, I feel lazy about letting it do these rough jobs, so I stay here for a while to see how it performs.

He Xiugu was generally satisfied with Heng Gongyao's return this time, so she corrected her tone and said:

"Heng Gongyao, if you can always keep your true intention and do good deeds from now on, when your merits are complete one day, I will personally save you!"

Hearing this, Heng Gongyao was not very interested.

Although it had previously called He Xiugu "fairy aunt", it was just to survive.

He Xiugu's cultivation level has been somewhat understood.

Know that she is not some Taoist real person.

It is hard to say whether the three flowers will be able to gather together in the future. How difficult it is to become an immortal!

With such strength, are you still talking about enlightening yourself?

Heng Gongyao only regarded He Xiugu's words as perfunctory remarks.

Therefore, I never paid attention to it.

But here, He Xiugu seemed to have read Heng Gongyao's thoughts. She frowned slightly and said:

"I'm not lying to you. I am the disciple of Han Xiangzi, the Heavenly Master of Dongxiao Guangji in the Tang Dynasty. Sooner or later I will be among the immortals. It will be easy to transform you into a little demon."

The words fell.

The Henggong demon's pupils shrank for no reason, its eyes widened, and it stared blankly at He Xiugu. It uttered human words:

"You...are you really a disciple of Heavenly Master Dongxiao Guangji?"

For the Celestial Master Dongxiao Guangji, he is also Han Xiangzi, the star king of Kaiyuan Yanfa Miaodao.

Naturally, Heng Gongyao has heard of it.

Shuangqiu Dragon Cave is not far from Chaozhou.

In the past, the dragon god was evil and tyrannical. He once approached the Shuangqiu Demon King and asked him to submit to him.

By the way, he also used this to expand his prestige to Zengzhou.

The Shuangqiu Demon King refused, and he aspired to join the Shuiguan lineage.

When he was young, he received enlightenment from He Bo.

I won't agree to anything.

This move made Dragon God angry.

After he left the dragon's lair, the Shuangqiu Demon King was quite frightened.

I am afraid that the Dragon God will come to my door to oppress me.

Unexpectedly, not long after, the news came that the Dragon God was deflated.

It turns out that Duke Changli of the Tang Dynasty arrived in Chaozhou, and his grandnephew Han Xiangzi is the Imperial Master of the Tang Dynasty, and he is also the fourth-rank righteous god in heaven, Kaiyuan Yanfa Miaodao Xingjun!

As soon as he showed up, the Dragon God was frightened before he even took action.

Completely solved the problem of dragons in Chaozhou!

After finding out about this, the Shuangqiu Demon King felt relieved.

Now, the Henggong Demon was shocked when he heard what He Xiugu said that the Celestial Master Dongxiao Guangji was his master!

If that's the case, isn't it a sure thing that this woman in front of me will become an immortal in the future?

"How can it be false?"

He Xiugu's beautiful eyes flashed and she said.

"The little demon must remember the fairy aunt's teachings, dare not do evil, and be devoted to good."

Heng Gongyao felt hot in his heart, thinking that she would not dare to joke with Kaiyuan Yanfa Miaodao Xingjun and other gods and immortals to identify themselves, so he quickly changed the subject and said with a hint of piety.

"Infinite Heavenly Lord, if you do this, it will not be in vain for me to spare your life."

He Xiugu smiled, and her beautiful face became more bright.

Watching Heng Gong Yao off again, carrying passengers.

This time, she did not stay and left Shihu Town.

……

……

Not long after she left, the story of He Xiangu subduing demons and benefiting the people in Shihu Town spread like wildfire.

It even alarmed the government.

When the county magistrate led the government officials to rush to Shihu Town, they looked up and saw the giant fish monster on the river, and they couldn't help but be stunned.

Only then did I know this was true.

Immediately, the county magistrate found out the identity of He Xiugu and found out that she was from Zengzhou.

But the county magistrate doesn’t know the specifics.

At the end of the year, He Xiugu's subjugation of demons in Shihu Town was recorded in the county annals and passed down to future generations!

In order to thank He Xiugu for her move, the people of Shihu Town built a temple for her at the ferry in Shihu Town.

Of course, this is something to talk about later...

……

……

After leaving Shihu Town, He Xiugu returned all the way to Guixiang, Zengzhou, and it was smooth sailing.

One day passed and she returned to her hometown.

Returning to Guixiang again, looking at the familiar streets and old scenery, He Xiugu was filled with thoughts.

When she left before, she did not have any magic power in her body, but now she returns home, but she is a monk who has subdued the dragon and subdued the tiger.

Its strength has surpassed that of Luofu Mountain’s Ying Guanzhu!

"Dad, Mom, my daughter is home!"

He Xiugu walked across the threshold with light steps and came to her house. Before entering the hall, she couldn't wait to shout inside.

in the house.

When He Tai and his wife heard this familiar cry, they walked out involuntarily and saw He Xiugu after three years of absence.

"Xiugu, you are finally back!"

Mrs. He Dou shouted, rushed over and held He Xiugu in her arms.

He Tai stood aside, tears glistening in his eyes, but they were fleeting.

He carefully looked at He Xiugu from head to toe and found that she was a little taller than him, with a jade-like complexion and a clear temperament that made people dare not look too directly at her.

"This is the true skill I learned from the Heavenly Master..."

Seeing this, He Tai thought to himself, the joy on his face not diminishing.

"Xiu Gu, since you are back, don't be in a hurry to go back. Mom will go cook you a delicious meal right now."

After hugging He Xiugu for a while, He Dou let go of her hand, smiled, and went to the kitchen to get busy.

Looking at her leaving figure, He Xiugu felt a little warm in her heart.

"Xiugu, haven't you tasted the soy milk made by dad for a long time?"

"It's fresh out of the pot, have a taste."

Taking advantage of the time, He Tai went to the tofu shop, and He Xiugu filled a bowl of steaming soy milk and handed it to her.

"Thank you daddy."

He Xiugu chuckled lightly.

Taking the bowl, Tan opened his mouth and drank a few big gulps before passing the bowl over.

“It’s been more than three years since I drank the soy milk made by my father, and it still tastes as good as before.”

He Xiugu said happily.

"You are the only one with a sweet mouth..."

He Tai shook his head and smiled.

The father and daughter walked to the main hall and passed the screen. He Tai pointed to the portrait of the Heavenly Master hanging in the back hall and said to He Xiugu:

"Now that you've gone home, let's pay homage to your master first."

"In the past few years, thanks to the blessing of the Heavenly Master, your mother and I have been in good health, and our family's business is not bad."

Holding three sticks of incense, He Xiugu walked respectfully to the portrait and paid her respects.

After the incense was placed, the two of them withdrew.

"Xiu Gu, you have been studying Taoism with the Heavenly Master for the past few years, but what kind of magic do you know?" He Tai couldn't hide anything in his heart and couldn't help but asked curiously.

He Xiugu blinked:

"My daughter has learned a lot of magic. She has practiced diligently in the past three years, and now she can be considered a great monk in the world."

"How does it compare to Daoist Luo?"

He Tai didn't know the realm of Xuanmen, so he compared her with Guanzhu Luo.

"It's more profound than fellow Taoist Luo."

He Xiugu couldn't explain it to He Tai, so she spoke tactfully.

"Can it be compared to Daozhang Luo?"

Hearing this, He Tai stared and felt surprised.

I thought that my daughter, who had studied Taoism with the Heavenly Master for three years, would at most be able to turn stones into gold and soar through the clouds.

Unexpectedly, he has such great ability.

This time, He Tai was really impressed.

The original intention of urging her to get married as soon as possible was extinguished. Having said this, He Xiugu thought for a while, suddenly changed the topic, and asked tentatively:

"Dad, my daughter is thinking, you and your mother are still young, why don't you have a younger brother?"

"My daughter is able to come back this time because Master saw that I was successful in cultivating Taoism, so he let me go down the mountain."

Say it.

He Tai was stunned for a moment. He was completely unexpected by his daughter's words:

"One more, this?!"

"Master has great magical powers and is familiar with many immortal families. If parents ask for a child from him, they will definitely succeed." He Xiugu continued.

Since she started cultivating Taoism, she suddenly understood that for a practitioner, time is just a snap of the fingers.

But for secular people, it is different.

How many decades can an ordinary person live?

He Xiugu just saw the longing for her mother's face and the caring in her eyes, and she suddenly understood something.

I'm afraid she won't be able to spend much time with her parents in this life.

Instead of letting the two elders worry about themselves all day long when they grow old, it would be better to have another child so that they can have something to think about and have more comfort in their hearts.

He Tai's body suddenly trembled. Hearing what He Xiugu said, he looked away a lot.

With an open-minded look on his face, he said:

"Xiugu, dad wanted to ask you about your marriage again, but now it seems that he is overly worried..."

"Your mother and I are very happy that you can worship in front of the Heavenly Master. We have nothing to miss in this life. We just hope that you will be well."

"As for the child, let it take its course."

"Thank you for your understanding, Daddy."

He Xiugu heard this, bowed her head and said.

After chatting about this matter, He Xiugu told He Tai interesting stories about practicing in Zhongnan Mountain and what she had experienced all the way back to Zengzhou from Zhongnan Mountain.

Unconsciously, half an hour has passed.

Until Mr. He Dou came out of the kitchen and told them that the food was ready.

He Xiugu took the initiative to bring food to the kitchen and had a dinner with her parents.

……

……

"The prince is here, please take a seat!"

Double dragon lair.

In the spacious and translucent water palace hall, the red dragon saw a majestic horned figure and an extraordinary handsome figure wearing a dragon robe came to the front of the hall and hurriedly came out to greet him.

The person greeted by the red dragon was Ao Lin, the crown prince of the East China Sea.

"Chifeng, my prince heard that you have unified several water palaces and river palaces, and you have done a good job."

Ao Lin came to the front of the hall and sat on the upper seat naturally. He looked at the red-robed figure and smiled.

"The prince has given you too much praise, thanks to Lord Dragon Demon for his good training."

Chi Feng bowed and cupped his hands.

It turns out that Chi Feng is none other than the demon spirit that haunted the mountain king in the past.

On that day, the Dragon Demon Ancestor discussed with Ao Lin to establish his own force so that he could compete with Han Xiangzi and others.

For this reason, Ao Lin spent that time exterminating demons in the human world and collected many demon spirits.

After obtaining these demon spirits, the dragon demon conveniently erased the memories of these demon spirits, and then took some dragon bones to reshape the bodies of these demon spirits.

In this way, these demon spirits transformed into innate dragon species.

Although each of them has great magic power, they are controlled by the dragon demon!

And Chi Feng's predecessor was the King of Mount Cuan of Jiujing Mountain.

Now, he has become a general under Ao Lin. His true body is a red dragon, and his cultivation is comparable to that of the Taoist Half-Step Star Lord!

With Chi Feng's strength, there were eight or nine others under Ao Lin's command, all of whom had the help of dragons and demons.

A few days ago, Ao Lin sent Chi Feng here and asked him to investigate the whereabouts of the water treasure divine bead.

Unexpectedly, when he came this time, Chi Feng actually unified several nearby water palaces and river palaces, which really gave Ao Lin an unexpected surprise.

"Do you have any information on the whereabouts of the Water Treasure Divine Bead?"

The two chatted for a while, then Ao Lin asked straight to the point.

Hearing this, Chi Feng's eyes dodge for a moment, then he spoke sincerely:

"To be honest with the prince, I have searched all over the nearby Daze River, but there is no clue at all."

"Judging from the small size, the water treasure divine bead has probably never appeared in the world."

Ao Lin had a sarcastic look on his face, looked at Chi Feng, and sneered:

"Humph!"

"Are you doubting whether the Dragon Demon Ancestor is successful?"

"If this dragon ball hadn't triggered the reaction, why would I have come to your place?"

"Think carefully, have you found any clues?"

Chi Feng's body involuntarily tensed up a bit, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He hesitated for a moment before he hesitated:

"Qi... I'm reporting to the Crown Prince that when I occupied this dragon's lair, I killed the horned dragon here, but accidentally let go of its dragon soul."

Ao Lin rolled his eyes at Chi Feng, cursed and said:

"What do you do for food?"

"I have so much magic power that I can't even defeat a horned dragon. Where did that guy go?"

"No...I don't know."

Chi Feng's body suddenly trembled.

Not long after, he took out a scroll from his small sleeve and handed it to Ao Lin.

After taking the item, Ao Lin opened it and glanced at it quickly.

As soon as he couldn't see a line, his face darkened.

"The Great Emperor Dongyin, the official of Jiehe, is the Shui Cao of Jiujiang..."

"Jin Tongdi was granted the title of Chief Yuyu Officer and took office on the 28th of this month."

After reading it, Ao Lin was shocked and said in surprise:

"This is the edict written by Jiujiang Shuicao, the subordinate of Emperor Shuiguan, to that dragon?!"

After coming back to his senses, Ao Lin cursed at Chi Feng:

"idiot!"

"Emperor Shui Guan is one of the three great emperors. His status is so high that even the Nine Heavens Ying Yuan Lei Sheng Puhua Tianzun of the Lei Department treated him with courtesy. Why did you kill his subordinates?"

Ao Lin was very angry.

Forget it I met the Yin Xiang Master last time, but I didn’t expect another one to come today and cause such a big disaster!

"Prince, what should we do now?"

Chifeng asked with a look of helplessness as he felt a grave sin in his heart.

Ao Lin stared at the document and thought about it for a while before he pondered:

"The documents are still there, which means that the horned dragon has not gone to Jiujiang Water Cao to serve. I guess there is no need to panic since he doesn't have the immortal status."

"However, if that horned dragon can escape from you, it probably has some tricks."

"Can you send people to look for his traces these days?"

Chi Feng breathed a sigh of relief and replied:

"I sent people to look for it, but couldn't find it."

Ao Lin said disapprovingly:

"That guy has turned into a dragon soul. He couldn't run far. He must have been buried somewhere else."

"I would like to ask you, is there any place for cultivation within a few hundred miles around here that you haven't looked for?"

Chi Feng lowered his head, thought for a moment, and suddenly said:

"Prince, there is a Luofu Temple not far from here. The owner of the temple is a Taoist Taoist priest."

"Did the dragon soul go somewhere?"

Ao Lin nodded thoughtfully:

"Most likely."

Asked again:

"Which deity is worshiped in the Luofu Temple?"

"It seems to be a Yuanjun." Chi Feng said.

He once sent someone to inquire about the Luofu Temple.

"Yuanjun?"

Ao Lin raised his eyebrows.

Yuanjun was probably some of the immortals from Yaochi.

Unexpectedly, Luofu Temple does not enshrine the god of heaven.

"Then you go to the Luofu Temple in person another day and investigate clearly."

Ao Lin thought for a while and ordered to go down.

"Little understands."

Chi Feng replied.

……

……

That night.

Luofu Temple.

The moonlight is melting and the dusk is dark.

As the evening breeze blows, the sound of rushing waves from Guihu Lake at the foot of the mountain can be heard from time to time, adding to the loneliness.

Most of the Taoist boys guarding the mountain gate in the temple had fallen asleep at this time.

Bang bang!

At this moment, a sudden knock on the door rang out, awakening the Taoist boy from his slumber.

"Who?"

The Taoist boy rubbed his sleepy eyes and complained a little.

It's late at night, who's knocking on the door?

After the Taoist boy woke up, he opened the door and saw a dripping Confucian scholar.

But for some reason, he looked very weak and pale.

"Ji...Ji Shi, who are you looking for?"

The Taoist boy was stunned for a moment, thinking that this person came from the lake in the middle of the night?

"If I want to see your temple master, I'll tell you that an old friend from the foot of Fanchuan Mountain is here to visit!" the Confucian scholar said feebly.

"This……"

When the Taoist boy heard this, he glanced at this person with some embarrassment.

The master of the temple was probably practicing at this time, and he didn't dare to disturb him.

When hesitating.

The Confucian scholar's face suddenly changed with a burst of white mist, and soon a majestic dragon appearance appeared.

Two bunches of dragon whiskers even hit the Taoist boy on the face.

"You...who are you?!"

The Taoist boy was shocked for a moment. He came to his senses completely and looked at the Confucian scholar in disbelief.

"I am an old friend of your temple master. Go and tell him!"

The Confucian scholar's tone was a little more impatient and he urged.

……
