Taoist Master: I have a strange world

Chapter 116 The strange boy in the river, the Yaksha Li family

In Zhou Yuanwai's mouth, a scene of Nanjiang was slowly described.

As early as the founding of the Celestial Dynasty, Nanjiang was already full of monsters.

Moreover, the land of Nanjiang is dominated by aristocratic families. These aristocratic families are often demon people with a certain bloodline, and they often form a group with huge power.

Normal creatures are rare in Nanjiang, but there are various sects and aristocratic families.

However, Nanjiang is also rich in products, especially various water treasures, such as pearls and oysters.

At that time, Zhou Yuan's family took a risk and brought a batch of goods, risked a narrow escape, crossed Qingyun Mountain, and arrived at Nanjiang.

Later, after he came back by luck, he slowly started the family business.

"That was when my father was here, and I was just a kid. Because it was a family decision, the children went with it."

"Many of the clan uncles who went with us died in Nanjiang, so only my lineage survived."

There are many types of ghosts, but after ordinary people die, their instinct is to be attracted by the underworld.

As a Taoist successor, the thing he is least afraid of is ghosts.

Zhang Ling was also quite surprised when he initially learned about the situation in Nanjiang.

At this time, member Na Zhou said: "So I suspect that the Five Poison Sect may be related to Nanjiang."

However, as he spoke, Zhou Yuanwai's fear disappeared, because he reached out and touched the alienation on his body, and turned into a wry smile:

Zhou Yuanwai said: "Many monster families are able to communicate. On the contrary, there is no danger from ghosts and there is no reason to explain."

Zhang Ling thought to himself, and then asked Nanjiang what he needed to pay attention to.

But to Zhang Ling, these ghosts are just 'experience packages' that allow him to experiment with various ghost-killing curses or spells.

Zhou Yuanwai said slowly, with fear of Nanjiang in his words.

"So, there is no danger in Nanjiang." Zhang Ling said to himself. If it was just the danger from ghosts, then this kind of danger could be ignored for Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling looked strange.

"This……"

Zhou Yuanwai was a little dumbfounded when he heard Zhang Ling's words, and then he realized that he believed that ghosts were in danger, but that was not necessarily the case in front of the 'Taoist Master' in front of him.

Hearing this, Zhang Ling nodded.

Zhang Ling was slightly startled, but after thinking about it, it seemed possible.

"I never imagined that now our Zhou family has become demon people."

"The most dangerous thing in Nanjiang is the ghosts?"

"Once you encounter it, you just have to leave it to fate."

For example, the method of using five poisons to transform evil spirits and the method of using people to nourish evil spirits are obviously quite mature.

Those who can stay in the world often turn into ghosts because of their resentment or bad energy.

Zhou Yuanwai affirmed: "In Nanjiang, the most dangerous thing is the ghosts!"

"Some ghosts can even form a group of ghosts and kill people inside."

"The Five Poison Sect may be related to Nanjiang?"

Zhang Ling was a little puzzled and thought of something at the same time.

"If you are an ordinary person who eats monsters, it is not impossible to face it."

"That's not right. The people here have been poisoned and have lost their consciousness. They still rely on my methods to regain their consciousness. How do the creatures in Nanjiang maintain their normal consciousness despite their own alienation?"

He didn't expect that Nanjiang was now full of monsters.

That is to say, there is alienation in the body.

"When I was in Nanjiang, I heard about the reputation of some of the Five Poison Sects. I didn't expect that they would come to the Celestial Empire and do such unscrupulous things as to harm the people."

"But if ghosts come, ordinary people and even ordinary practitioners have no choice but to be attacked by ghosts."

The Five Poison Sect didn't appear without reason, that's for sure.

Only then did he become an 'unsolvable' existence in this other world without many means of dealing with ghosts.

"Ghost!"

Even without spells and other means, the simplest 'Thunder' is the nemesis of this type of ghosts.

Therefore, this kind of ghost has no normal logic and consciousness, and will follow a certain pattern to kill people.

That dynasty was so big, where did the Five Poison Sect's method mature?
  Thinking of the monsters everywhere in Nanjiang, there are some results.

"Could it be that the creatures in the Nanjiang area also have poisonous evil spirits entering their bodies?"

"Perhaps the Five Poison Sect was originally from Nanjiang, came to the Celestial Dynasty, and used the people in this area as a testing ground."

For people from this other world, once darkness falls, ghosts are somewhat inexplicable.

"What about the many demon people in Nanjiang?" Zhang Ling asked.

"In this case, if some family secrets hadn't taken action, we would have had to wait for death or stay away."

The Taoist priest in front of him can drive the ghosts and open the gate of yin and yang!
  Now in this blessed land of Qingyun, a 'Yam Luo Temple' is being built to worship the King of the Underworld who accepted their relatives in the underworld.

But Zhou Yuanwai couldn't help but asked: "Taoist Master, are you going to Nanjiang?"

"Some ideas."

"Even if you practice cultivation, you still need resources and knowledge, and you can't do it behind closed doors."

Zhang Ling did not say directly that he needed to exchange supplies, but changed his words.

"The Taoist priest should also be careful in Nanjiang." Zhou Yuanwai solemnly said: "The land of Nanjiang is full of demon people. On the contrary, normal people have difficulty walking among them and may be out of place."

"Okay, I remember."

Zhang Ling nodded to express his understanding.

After understanding the affairs of Nanjiang clearly, Zhang Ling asked: "What do the people still lack now?"

"You make a list and tell me. I will go to Nanjiang soon to solve these problems."

Zhou Yuanwai said: "If we were only in this blessed land, we wouldn't need many things, just farming."

"However, many people have been in various industries before, so it is a bit difficult for them to farm."

Zhang Ling somewhat understood that society needs fluidity and diversity.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to achieve any big development and hope just by doing a fixed job day after day.

Zhang Ling thought for a while and felt that Zhou Yuanwai's words were reasonable. He pondered and asked: "As you think, what if the people can go out and do business with the outside world?"

Faced with Zhang Ling's question, Zhou Yuanwai smiled bitterly and said: "Now in the land of the Celestial Empire, how can we monsters freely set foot on it?"

Zhang Ling shook his head and said, "I'm not talking about the Celestial Empire, but Nanjiang."

"If I can ensure that the people in the blessed land are in the Nanjiang River and are not harmed by ghosts, then can I organize caravans in the blessed land to trade with each other and activate people's hearts?"

After listening to this, Zhou Yuanwai showed surprise: "If you are not harmed by ghosts and monsters, of course you can."

"I knew from my time in Nanjiang that only some tyrannical families with the means to deal with ghosts can own fleets traveling to various places in Nanjiang, so they can make a lot of money from doing business."

"If we, the people of the Blessed Land, are not afraid of ghosts and monsters, we will naturally be able to trade in the Nanjiang River."

Zhou Yuanwai touched the alienation on his body and said: "Now we are also demon people. Being able to integrate into Nanjiang can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

"That's fine."

Zhang Ling nodded, thought for a moment and said, "Then you can find some suitable people first. After I go out to find out the situation in Nanjiang, I can send out the caravan."

"it is good!"

Zhou Yuanwai was quite excited. It seemed that this kind of business trip attracted him even more.

Thinking about it, Zhou Yuanwai originally came from a business family, not an official family.

Helping manage the people now is just a transition. My real interest is still doing business.

After Zhou Yuanwai left, Zhang Ling pondered.

He just made that statement because he thought that he couldn't be running around all the time.

To practice, you need a dojo, and Qingyun Mountain is just the right dojo for him to practice.

Therefore, if these people can communicate with the outside world, they can also help Zhang Ling obtain supplies.

At least, Zhang Ling can provide some cinnabar for the caravans from Qingyun Paradise to sell.

But the prerequisite for this step is that Zhang Ling first goes out to get a rough idea of ​​the situation in Nanjiang.

"You can go to Nanjiang to see it now!"

Zhang Ling made a plan.

We can wait until he comes back to make plans for teaching Taoist boys.

"Qingyun, after I go out, these people will need you to take care of them."

Before leaving, Zhang Ling asked the God of Qingyun Mountain.

"Taoist Priest, leave it to me."

Qingyun Mountain God patted his chest and promised: "These people also want to worship me, and I will naturally take good care of them."

"After you leave, I will directly close the mountain so that you can't get in or out, and there won't be any problems."

Zhang Ling nodded, still very relieved about Qingyun Mountain God.

"But, Taoist Master, don't you need me to come with you?" Qingyun Mountain God also asked: "Although I don't have much power left, I can still help Taoist Master at critical moments."

"No need, you can practice more in the mountains and regain more power as soon as possible."

Zhang Ling smiled slightly.

If it were before, Qingyun Mountain God would be by his side, which would be of great help to Zhang Ling.

After all, those mountain gods' powers can be used as Zhang Ling's key means.

But now, Zhang Ling has been refining treasures from modern times. After filling the green leather gourd with electric current, he has the means to suppress the bottom of the box.

Moreover, Zhang Ling's Taoist ultimatum now has the power to allow Zhang Ling to skip the stage of "practice and prayer" whether he is drawing talismans or casting spells, and does not need to be surrounded by the God of Qingyun Mountain to protect the law.

In this case, having Qingyun Mountain God by his side would not be of much help. On the contrary, once a person like the God of Qingyun Mountain leaves Qingyun Mountain and is far away from Qingyun Mountain in the outside world, accidents are likely to happen.

Zhang Ling had heard from Qingyun Mountain that many places in ancient times had mutated due to various reasons and turned into various mountain ghosts and monsters.

In this case, it would be best if Qingyun Mountain God is in this mountain.

"Ok."

Qingyun Mountain God sighed with regret. It really wanted to follow Zhang Ling, because by following Zhang Ling, it could see things it had never seen before.

But Zhang Ling did not ask to follow, so Qingyun Mountain God had no choice but to give up.

……

After Zhang Ling made his decision, he set off directly after a while, and he left very decisively.

For him, doing things with purpose naturally requires efficiency.

Qingyun Mountain and the people of Qingyun Mountain are not enough for Zhang Ling to worry about until he stays there.

Zhang Ling's top priority is to get some supplies so that he can get some money in the modern era. Just staying in Qingyun Blessed Land is not enough.

Before leaving, Qingyun Mountain God informed Zhang Ling about the external landforms he knew.

That Zhou Yuanwai also gave Zhang Ling an old map that had been hidden in their home for many years.

The leather map is already mottled and worn, but you can barely still see the distribution of landforms and location labels on it.

At the same time, the God of Qingyun Mountain was in front and personally sent Zhang Ling out of Qingyun Mountain.

After crossing many high mountains and cliffs in the Qingyun Mountains, Zhang Ling heard the sound of rolling waves.

"Taoist Priest, this is the edge of Qingyun Mountain, right next to the Nanjiang River."

Qingyun Mountain God reminded.

Zhang Ling raised his head and looked up with the Qingyun Mountain God. He saw that the water in front of him was so bright that it seemed that the moon in the sky could be immersed in it. In the vast river, the shadow of the sky appeared.

A big river suddenly rolled down around Qingyun Mountain. There were turbulent waves rolling in it, which seemed to have hundreds of layers, and there were even waves, like thousands of mountains.

"What a big river! What a dark river!"

Zhang Ling couldn't help but exclaimed. The huge river in front of him exceeded Zhang Ling's experience in the two worlds.

Up and down the river, there is no end in sight.

Zhang Ling opened his eyes to see the other side of the river, and found that it was still thirty to fifty miles away.

Such a large river is unheard of in the modern world.

"This is the Nanjiang River. Looking at the world, it is also one of the largest rivers."

Qingyun Mountain God nodded and said from the side: "So, this God of the River is one of the strongest gods on earth."

"But once it mutates, it directly causes countless people up and down the Nanjiang River to mutate on the same day."

Zhang Ling nodded and looked towards the river. The waves were so turbulent that normal ships could not pass through them. There were no ships visible on both sides.

Fortunately, Zhou Yuanwai had already told Zhang Ling how to cross the river.

"There is a tribe called the Turtle Tribe that has always lived in the river. They specialize in the business of crossing the river. As long as the spinal fluid of living beings is poured into the river as a guide, the Turtle Tribe will appear nearby."

Zhang Ling also remembered this method, but he did not need to use this method to cross the river at the moment.

After all, he was still on Qingyun Mountain, which happened to be a high cliff with Nanjiang River below. It happened to be the highest point of Qingyun Mountain adjacent to Nanjiang River.

When Zhou Yuanwai first crossed the river for business, he took the lowest point, found the river bank, and used the turtle tribe to cross the river.

Zhang Ling is at a high point, on a cliff thousands of feet tall.

At this height, Zhang Ling could jump, ride the wind, and glide to the other side.

"I am leaving."

Zhang Ling said goodbye to the God of Qingyun Mountain, and at the same time, he put a 'Armor Horse Riding Cloud Talisman' on his legs.

With this cloud-riding talisman on his legs, Zhang Ling could, to a certain extent, use the cloud energy to keep gliding.

Zhang Ling, who was still in the stage of refining gas, did not have the ability to fly.

But he can 'glide'.

In addition to the power of the talisman, Zhang Ling himself also has the 'Pegasus and Cloud Feet', which allows him to grow wings at his feet and control the wind and clouds to a certain extent.

In addition, Zhang Ling's magic power can also be used to gather wind and clouds for himself with the help of the 'wind and cloud' clouds.

After saying goodbye, Zhang Ling jumped from the high cliff of Qingyun Mountain.

The water of the broad river was dark and the current was mighty, but Zhang Ling jumped down from a height of thousands of feet.

Stab it!

Zhang Ling's magic power was transferred to his feet, and he activated the 'Pegasus Cloud Feet' to the extreme. Two pairs of feathered wings sprouted and flapped rapidly.

There is also the 'Jiama Riding Cloud Talisman' that gathers a cloud of wind and energy under its feet, which can be used to step on it.

The magic power in Zhang Ling's body surged, directly stirring up the situation.

"Hoohoo!"

There was a strong wind all over his body, and Zhang Ling walked against the wind. His figure did not fall rapidly, but it was more like there was a slide under his feet, heading straight ahead.

The Nanjiang River was mighty, dozens of miles wide, but Zhang Ling was traveling very fast while riding the wind.

After a while, Zhang Ling's figure slowly descended, and the river bank could be seen in front of him.

Wow!
  The wind blew and the clouds flew, the grass on the ground was bent by the wind, and a pair of shoes fell to the ground.

"arrive!"

Zhang Ling let out a breath and retracted the wings on his feet into his body, and the 'Armor Horse Riding Cloud Talisman' slowly dimmed.

As soon as he landed, he heard a "gurgling" sound, like the sound of swallowing saliva.

"Ok?"

Zhang Ling turned around and saw a sudden 'crash' sound coming from the river.

Immediately afterwards, a monster in the water broke out of the water, splashed water, opened its mouth, and bit Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling took a closer look and saw that the monster was a ferocious big fish, with black scales all over its body. There were ferocious barbs on the huge fish head. A pair of fish mouths were filled with fine and sharp teeth, and there were faint traces of residual teeth. Meat scraps.

This monster is huge, its body is two feet long, and its mouth is more than two meters wide.

If he was really swallowed, Zhang Ling would be swallowed clean, including his body and clothes.

"What a bold monster and he's going to swallow me as soon as I hit the ground?"

Zhang Ling did not panic, and reacted quickly. As soon as he turned his hand, a yellow talisman appeared in his hand.

He directly punched out the yellow talisman.

On top of the yellow talisman, there is a cloud with the word "electricity", which is the electric talisman drawn by Zhang Ling in modern times. Once released, it will be equivalent to a high-voltage electric shock in an instant, which is enough to electrocute ordinary people.

Wow!
  As soon as the yellow talisman came out, it immediately ignited and turned into flying ashes.

But the power within it was suddenly released, and a bright electric light fell on the strange fish.

Zizizi!
  In an instant, the electric light danced, and the strange fish's whole body became brighter. At the same time, the body that suddenly jumped out suddenly stiffened.

Zhang Ling just took two steps back.

"Oh!"

The strange fish's body stiffened and fell from the air. Under the inertia, it even slid forward, but it just happened to be in front of Zhang Ling.

This electric light talisman is not enough to make the strange fish lose its life. After all, the opponent is huge and quite impressive.

But this moment of stiffness was enough for Zhang Ling to react and do something.

Keng.

Zhang Lingfa took out the sword from its sheath, whispered in his mouth, pinched the finger of the diamond sword with his other hand, recited the diamond mantra, and touched it on the sword!
  Immediately, the magic sword was given the golden light of the divine edge that can kill demons and destroy evil.

The next moment, Zhang Ling stabbed the monster's head mercilessly with the magic sword in his hand.

"Wait! Don't kill my big fish!"

At this moment, a young and anxious voice emerged from the river.

In the river near the shore, the current turned into a whirlpool, and a figure rose inside.

His skin was green, like an onion. He wore a small bellyband and a collar around his neck. He had normal limbs, but his facial features had a ferocious and ugly look. He was holding a pocket-sized steel fork in his hand.

At this time, he was the one shouting for Zhang Ling to stop.

Zhang Ling just glanced at the strange boy in the river, but the movements of his hands did not stop at all, and instead he used more strength.

"Pfft!"

The magic sword flashed with golden light and pierced directly through the gap in the fish monster's gills.

As soon as Zhang Ling's magic power surged, the sword immediately began to stir with light. In just an instant, the strange fish's eyes went blank, and smelly blood flowed out from its gills.

"You killed my big fish!"

The strange boy who just emerged from the river was stunned, and then a look of anger appeared on his face.

"I don't just want to kill this big fish!"

Zhang Ling turned around and looked towards Jiang Zhong, his face was calm, but his words were a bit sharp:
  "If you let this evil fish swallow people and sit back and watch, I will kill you too!"

As he spoke, another electric talisman appeared in Zhang Ling's hand, and he raised his hand to strike it out.

And the strange boy screamed and said loudly: "You want to kill me? I am the third son of the Yasha Li family."

"Yaksha Li family?"

Zhang Ling paused for a moment and looked at the strange boy. Although he looked like a human being, he was ugly, his skin was not like that of an ordinary person, and his hair was as messy as waterweed.

Zhou Yuanwai told Zhang Ling that there were many tribes of monsters living in the water in the river. He told Zhang Ling all the races he knew about, big and small.

And this Yaksha Li family is one of them.

According to Zhou Yuanwai, the Yasha Li family, which owns a city, is a well-known powerful family in this area!
