I built the Jade Capital with the Netherworld

Chapter 14 Flesh
Once bitten, twice shy!
Lu Wujiu looked at Liu Qingtan's worried expression and said seriously, "No."

"The ancestor doesn't lie?"

"Monks don't lie."

Lu Wujiu patted Liu Qingtan's soul and said, "Go back. It's cold outside. If your soul is injured, it will be difficult to treat."

"Ok!"

Liu Qingtan nodded and his soul returned to his body.

Lu Wujiu immediately chased after the old woman.

I don’t know if it was a last burst of energy or faith in her heart, but the emaciated old woman now walked briskly.

They stopped and walked along the way, but by midnight they had arrived at a mountain village thirty miles away.

At midnight, the old woman returned home. Instead of resting, she rolled up her sleeves and started cleaning and boiling water, full of energy.

When it was almost dawn, the house was cleaned. She took advantage of the hot water to take a good bath, combed her hair, put on new clothes, opened the dusty dressing box, and put on rouge with awkward and clumsy movements.

At this time, the noise of early-rising villagers could be heard outside the house.

She got up and went out of the house. Amidst the villagers' strange looks, she gave away the things that she had sorted the night before one by one.

Sister Li had just given birth and needed clothes, so she gave her a bag of old clothes;
The old sister-in-law often helped her out, and gave her the most valuable iron pot in the house;
Although the old student at the head of the village was strict, he took the best care of Zhong'er. He even forgave the tuition he owed in his early years as a favor that had to be repaid. He also entrusted Zhong'er's most valuable books and writing materials to him.

After some gifts were given, the villagers who had originally looked at them with strange eyes suddenly became enthusiastic.

But before they could talk for a few words, the old woman closed the door, locking everyone out.

An uncontrollable tiredness also surged into my heart.

She slowly moved her feet, sat on the bed, and lay down quietly, thinking about the ups and downs of her life and the upcoming reunion in the underworld. She couldn't help laughing, and the low curse, like a childhood nursery rhyme, echoed lightly in the clean hut.

"The living are false, the dead return to the true self. They come suddenly and go away suddenly. Their spirits are pure and innocent, and their bodies are transformed into the world's destiny..."

As the old woman chanted quietly, her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and the noise outside the house became increasingly blurred.

After a while, her whole body felt light. The heavy thoughts and the sick old body all disappeared at this moment.

She stood up in a daze, and saw a familiar immortal standing beside her. Behind the immortal stood the familiar Ghost Gate.

Looking back, her remains were lying quietly on the bed with a smile on her face.

"Master, did I pronounce it correctly?"

"That's right, go ahead! I'll be waiting for you there in the middle of the week."

"Hey!"

The old woman responded and walked away briskly.

Lu Wujiu looked at the corpse on the bed, sighed softly, and disappeared without a trace in a flash.

……

……

The underworld, the side hall of Fengdu.

Lu Wujiu sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and looked inward. He was supposed to have a pure yin body, but at this moment, a set of internal organs that seemed real and illusory were flowing in his abdominal cavity.

There is yang energy flowing in it!
Taoism says that the soul is formed by yang energy and becomes the human mind.

The "Transferring the Spirit into the Shell Sutra" also says that by reversing the soul and using yin to nourish yang, the flesh and blood can also be reshaped.

As the saying goes: "Where a little Yang energy arrives, all things are like spring!"

As Lu Wujiu practiced his skills, the Yin energy in his soul was constantly consumed, while his Yang energy grew stronger and stronger. His internal organs also gradually solidified, and the feeling of solidification seemed to be expanding outwards.

However, before Lu Wujiu could rebuild his body, the Yin energy in his body had already been exhausted.

"No wonder it's a mid-level technique. It's really full of troubles."

Lu Wujiu frowned and was about to pause temporarily, planning to slowly reshape his body.

Unexpectedly, the Yin Qi in the underworld, as if sensing the void in its owner's body, immediately swarmed in. Lu Wujiu was startled, suddenly realizing that he was the owner of the human skin book, and the Yin Qi in the book should be used by him.

With the influx of Yin Qi and the transformation of Yang Qi, the stagnant body gradually solidified again.

Lu Wujiu's body was like a piece of porcelain that was gradually painted, with the Yin forming the blank and the Yang creating the glaze, adding vitality to the flesh and nurturing the unpolished jade into a human being.

It seemed like a long time had passed, and also like just a moment, Lu Wujiu silently opened his eyes.

A familiar yet unfamiliar touch came from all directions, flowing into his sea of ​​consciousness through his six senses.

He looked down at his naked body, stood up and stretched his limbs slightly. The lightness that belonged only to the soul disappeared, and what was left was the heaviness of the flesh and the sense of security that the soul did not have.

"Is this... done?"

Lu Wujiu murmured, somewhat incredulous.

You know, in the "Moving the Spirit into the Shell Sutra", the method of pretending to be dirty and generating the five elements is described as very troublesome.

Ordinary ghosts cannot regenerate into flesh and blood without years of hard work.

So much so that he was mentally prepared for a long battle.

How could you imagine that this would happen?
Is this because of the benefits of human skin books?
Thinking of the human skin book, Lu Wujiu felt complicated. He had to admit that this magic book written with countless lives was indeed extraordinary.

In fact, his reconstruction of the flesh and blood was not without cost.

The concentration of Yin energy in the underworld dropped by a level because of his breathing.

At a glance, many ghost officials became suspicious.

Lu Wujiu had an idea and weakened the Yin energy at the foot of the mountain. The saved Yin energy gathered at the top of the mountain to provide for the Yin officials to practice.

This increased the peak concentration by three points.

Seeing this, the ghost officials couldn't help but talk about it, but unfortunately no one knew the truth, so they could only make random guesses and give up!
Lu Wujiu was not interested in the situation of the ghost officials. His soul left his body and headed towards Lao Lu Temple.

From Lao Lu's perspective, everything remains the same as yesterday.

Lu Wujiu walked to the room of his third senior brother with ease, and then his soul returned to his body. His naked body walked out of the human skin book and he found a clean Taoist robe to put on.

I haven't worn clothes for a long time.

In other words, he hadn't been a human for a long time, and suddenly having an extra body made him feel something was wrong. Now that he had an extra set of clothes, he felt even more awkward.

After twisting and turning for a long time, I finally managed to adapt.

He pushed open the door. The night was as dark as water, and the chill of deep winter brushed across his cheeks, making him shiver uncontrollably.

But I was genuinely happy in my heart.

He rubbed his hands and walked towards the ancestral hall - if nothing unexpected happened, Liu Qingtan would probably be practicing at this time.

In fact, since the death of the old Taoist priest, Liu Qingtan has been practicing more and more diligently, especially after Yu Qi Guang appeared, Liu Qingtan's practice can be described as self-abuse.

It's no longer day or night.

that's the truth.

From a distance, Lu Wujiu saw the flickering candlelight in the ancestral hall. When he reached the door, he saw Liu Qingtan sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed in meditation.

However, as a cultivator, his five senses were extremely sharp. He seemed to realize something and suddenly opened his eyes.

Seeing Lu Wujiu, he was startled, and his expression changed from disbelief to ecstasy:
"Master, I see you!"

"is it?"

Lu Wujiu smiled, but Liu Qingtan said excitedly:

"Disciple has developed the Yin-Yang Eyes!"
