When I become a demon king, I want to change my department to the Taoist sect.
Chapter 766: The Foundation in the Mountains
Chapter 766: The Foundation in the Mountains
After walking out of the old man's noodle shop, Xu Zhi did not stay in Yongzhou Prefecture for too long and left directly.
This also meant that the Chen family cultivators who had hurried over were left empty-handed.
"Old Ma, where is the person you were talking about?"
The leading cultivator frowned and questioned. He was wearing a bright helmet and armor, and his aura was at the Qi Refining level.
"Gone...already gone." The boss shrank his neck, a look of fear on his face.
"Didn't we say that anyone who encounters this kind of demon society must report it immediately and do their best to delay it until we can capture it?"
Monk Mingkai's eyes were as furious as lightning, and the boss was so scared that he collapsed to the ground.
"Sir, this... this person just left after finishing his noodles. No matter how I try to keep him, it's useless."
"How long has that person been gone?"
"It's been less than a cup of tea." The boss replied hurriedly.
"They shouldn't have gone far. Let's go to the city gate and track them down."
After the attendants beside him left, the monk Mingkai stretched out his hand and said with a cold smile: "Take it out. They haven't discovered it yet. Do you think you can still hide it from me?"
The boss pretended to be dumb and said, "What are you talking about, sir? I don't understand."
The monk with bright armor waved his hand and took the small spiritual stone in his hand.
Then he leaned over slightly, slapped the boss twice loudly on both sides.
"This is something you can keep privately. I could already smell it as soon as I walked in."
The boss was still unwilling to lose this spiritual stone, and struggled to say: "Sir, this... this is what I am going to give to Brother Ma."
The monk in bright armor narrowed his eyes slightly, like a hungry wolf selecting its prey, and an extremely dangerous aura emanated from his whole body.
"This thing should be given to you by the monk from the Demon Society. Let me think, how much secret did you betray to her to give you such a big spiritual stone?" The monk Liang Kai frowned and looked thoughtful.
"Could it be that you also coveted the free skills and joined the demon society?"
"No, no." Upon hearing this, the boss immediately panicked and waved his hands around. "I'm living a good life, how dare I do something so desperate."
"Who can say for sure? Maybe you, a lowly slave, also want to turn over and become a monk?"
The black-armored monk said nonchalantly, "If you commit such a capital crime, do you think that demon horse can still protect you? Or in other words, is it willing to protect an old horseman like you?"
After saying this, Brother Liangkai walked out of the noodle shop contentedly, leaving behind the boss who was like a puddle of mud, full of regret.
But if he hadn't coveted the Chen family's reward, how could he have ended up in such a situation?
……
There are two words, each representing one thing.
After Xu Zhi left the noodle shop, she turned into a beam of light and flew towards the northern part of Yongzhou. To her, such a lower province seemed almost defenseless.
Xu Zhi's destination was a high and steep mountainous area with many folds, many faults and uplifts.
This place is neither suitable for the magnificent mountain scenery required by the monks for their secluded practice, nor is it suitable for large-scale gatherings of mortals.
Logically speaking, only a few scattered tribal-like mortals and wild beasts would take root here.
But when Xu Zhi looked down at this place from the sky, she saw a scenery that was completely different from what she had imagined.
The mountain land was neatly plowed out and made into terraces.
The busy little people in the terraced fields would throw out a talisman from time to time, and then a small group of dark clouds would gather there, and after a few moments, a drizzle would fall.
The rain-praying talismans that were rarely seen in Shengjing were seen here to their full extent.
Looking forward, Xu Zhi saw endless gray houses. She was very familiar with this kind of building because the Danfang on Sanxian Island looked like this.
And the hint of fire coming from the gray house confirmed her suspicion.
So she stopped her escape and landed in front of a gray house.
When she suddenly appeared, the two teenagers guarding the door of the gray house were obviously panicked.
However, although their eyes were filled with fear, they still walked towards Xu Zhi calmly and asked with a trembling voice, "Who are you?"
Xu Zhi did not deliberately restrain or increase her power, just like Tang Yuan usually did when interacting with them.
Therefore, facing a Yin Shen Venerable, it was quite remarkable that these two young men who had just established their foundation could say these two sentences.
Xu Zhi looked at the two of them with a hint of admiration and said, "You are probably practicing the third revision of the basic foundation-building method. It seems that you have done quite well. You all have a Dao foundation of medium quality or above."
The slightly older boy on the right steadied himself from falling. Even though he was very scared, he still tried very hard to look at Ohhuo and questioned him, "Who are you? You are trespassing into Zhideshi, but you will die. I advise you to run away quickly."
Xu Zhi slowly approached the boy, patted her trembling arm, and chuckled, "Why, didn't the person who taught you the technique tell you who filled in the changed characters?"
The boy was stunned at first, his eyes moving around, then as if he thought of something, he pointed at Xu Zhi and almost jumped up with excitement.
"You...you are the master's junior sister!"
Before Xu Zhi could admit it, a beam of light appeared from a distance and appeared in front of Xu Zhi in an instant.
"Junior sister." Zhou Ju nodded with a smile.
Xu Zhi excitedly grabbed Zhou Ju's arm and said, "The high ones are suppressed, the low ones are lifted up, the excess ones are reduced, the deficiencies are supplemented, their food is sweet, their clothes are beautiful, their homes are comfortable, and their customs are joyful. This can be called the world of supreme virtue."
"When I heard the words 'Zhi De Shi', I knew it must have been you, my brother, who did this."
"You are the only one who would regard the homework assigned by the master as the first priority!"
Xu Zhi has always had a high opinion of herself and has never taken the geniuses of her generation seriously.
But Zhou Ju was an exception.
The identity of senior brother is only one aspect. The other aspect is that Xu Zhi feels that if she were to swap places with Zhou Ju, she would definitely not be able to reach the same level as he is today.
After all, for quite a long time, Master did not protect this fellow brother.
What made Xu Zhi admire him even more was that this senior brother of hers seemed to never be confused.
Once he has determined his goal, he will move forward meticulously and with full concentration, and no matter what twists and turns or storms occur along the way, his determination will not be shaken.
Xu Zhi couldn't do it herself, and she had only seen such a determination in her master.
Therefore, Xu Zhi's respect for Zhou Ju came from the bottom of her heart.
Just like now, when I saw Zhou Ju completing the almost impossible assignment given by his master.
Even more excited.
Such emotions even infected the two little kids, who all laughed out loud.
Even though they didn't know Xu Zhi yet, their favorability towards her had already skyrocketed.
Because, the gentleman they respected most had never had such a full smile on his face as he did now!
"Why, do you want to take a rest first, or go and visit this Zhide World first?" Zhou Ju asked.
"Of course, I have to take a look at the foundation built by my senior brother first. I have to learn from his experience. Maybe after I learn it, my master will let me manage the lower house." Xu Zhi joked.
“Hahaha.” Zhou Ju also laughed and said, “When you really take charge, just don’t ask me to take over!”
