He has been very curious about this kind of thing throughout his life. In his opinion, there is nothing more fun than exploring the unknown.

After hearing what Wang Zhenqiu said, Liu Deshui knew something.

"This old Taoist Cui must have stolen the secrets of heaven to do this, forcibly changing his own destiny."

"I also heard about this kind of thing in my early years. It was about a friend of my father's in business. He didn't have any extraordinary cultivation talent, but he was determined to obtain the methods of those extraordinary people in the martial arts world."

"In the end, a wizard from Yemao Mountain was invited from somewhere and said he could give him this method."

"So this friend of my father's spent a large sum of money to have the magician from Yemao Mountain perform a ritual. It is said that he bought seven children and then grafted their talents onto him."

"I don't know what happened later, but in the end, my father's friend succeeded and spent the whole day showing off the supernatural skills he learned."

"But everything has a price. My father's friend used to have a good business, but everything he did would go wrong. I heard that he went bankrupt and moved to Southeast Asia with his family."

"As for what happened in the end, I'm not very clear."

"That means that this Taoist Cui might not have originally been destined to become an extraordinary person. In the end, he stole the secrets of heaven and became an extraordinary person."

"So he can't use this ability to make money for himself."

"Could it be that this Old Daoist Cui's fate was changed by the so-called human book?"

"Chu Lan, the opportunity you mentioned before, is this the opportunity you were talking about?"

Liu Deshui’s words also surprised Zhang Chulan.

"That's not entirely certain. Perhaps the Book of Humanity is meant to give people a chance. In this way, we can change our predetermined fate."

"And is the clue that the owner of the notebook mentioned really in the possession of this old Taoist Cui?"

Thinking of this, Zhang Chulan looked at Feng Baobao.

"Sister Baoer, please continue reading and see what's next."

After hearing Zhang Chulan's words, Feng Baobao nodded, and then continued reading the notes in her hand.

I asked Taoist Cui what it was, and he told me it was a heavenly book, a dozen pages long. He only read two and a half lines, but he already possessed incredible abilities. He mastered Yin and Yang, the Eight Trigrams, Feng Shui, divination, the Five Elements, and even demon-slaying techniques.

[Of course, these abilities of his can only be used for good deeds, not to make money, otherwise he will definitely be in trouble.]

He also told me that Zhuge Liang had learned the skills to stabilize the world after reading only two lines and Liu Bowen had learned the skills to stabilize the world after reading only three lines. He was already very impressive after reading only two and a half lines.

Watching Master Cui speak so eloquently, I realized I had misjudged him. I hadn't expected him to be such a capable person.

I asked him where he had seen the heavenly book, and Taoist Cui told me it was in a place called Tangwu Mountain.

I'm incredibly familiar with Tangwu Mountain. When I was chatting with Yi Xiaochuan, he told me he was from there, so I presume it was there. Perhaps Yi Xiaochuan later did something to Tangwu Mountain.

I then asked Taoist Cui how he got to Tangwu Mountain, and he told me a story.

【This story is also a story he experienced personally.】

Back in the Qing Dynasty, his family was poor and he couldn't afford education. However, he had never been interested in learning a craft or doing manual labor. His favorite storytelling was "Legends of the Immortals," which filled him with lofty ambitions. With such ambitions, he naturally wouldn't settle for being an ordinary citizen at home.

After much deliberation, I decided to leave home and become a Taoist priest at a nearby Taoist temple.

[In this Taoist temple, he met a master named Cang Tian Dao Ren. He was not from this Taoist temple, but a Taoist who had traveled from far away to stay here.]

Hearing this Taoist name, everyone was shocked.

This Taoist priest is so arrogant that he even dares to call himself Cang Tian.

……

Seeing a connection with him, the Taoist Cang Tian decided to take him in as his disciple and took him with him on their journey. Throughout their journey, he gained a lot of experience and learned many of the ways ordinary people deal with demons and monsters.

For example, human saliva and foul language are extremely lethal to ghosts. If someone curses and spit flies everywhere, even the King of Ghosts will retreat.

There are many other tips, such as placing a broom upside down in your home to ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters.

After hearing the records in the notes, Wang Zhenqiu was eager to try it out.

Then he looked at Feng Xingtong.

"That kid from the Feng family, don't you have a few ghosts on you? Why not experiment with them now?"

Feng Xingtong shook his head quickly after hearing this.

"No, no!"

“That’s absolutely not possible!”

"These elves are my friends. How can I let them be my test subjects?"

Wang Zhenqiu laughed heartily.

"Don't take it so seriously, I'm just saying."

Seeing that Wang Zhenqiu looked a little embarrassed, Zhang Chulan immediately tried to smooth things over.

"Speaking of which, why not just test it later when we're on a mission?"

"Okay, Sister Baoer, please continue reading."

After hearing this, Feng Baobao hurriedly continued reading.

After Daoist Cui had told me so much, he began to recount how he had seen those two lines of the Half-Sky Scripture at Tangwu Mountain.

One day, his master, Taoist Cang Tian, brought him to the Tangwu Mountain area and told him that he was not destined to seek immortality or the Way, but that he would have a lifetime of wealth and honor.

[As long as he seizes this opportunity, he will be able to enjoy a lifetime of wealth and no longer have to live in poverty.]

When everyone heard that Taoist Cui had actually lived a life of wealth and prosperity, they looked at him in disbelief.

I don’t know what happened later that prevented Master Cui from seizing this opportunity.

……

According to Taoist Cui, during the Han Dynasty, before Liu An, the King of Huainan, became an immortal, a toad always followed him around while he practiced cultivation. Over time, the toad developed a golden body, endowed with magical powers, and could gather wealth. Possessing the toad was like possessing a treasure, hence the origin of the saying "golden toad gathers wealth."

When Liu An, King of Huainan, took the elixir and ascended to heaven, he calculated that if the golden toad remained in the human world, it would surely cause cholera in the world due to its wealth-accumulating properties.

He wanted to kill the golden toad with a single blow, but he also felt that cultivating the Dao was difficult, so he sent it to guard Tangwu Mountain, where his grandmother was buried. His grandmother was a remarkable person. It was said that before her death, her body transformed from a woman into a man, and she left behind a heavenly book with her. It was said that anyone who read it went insane, but only King Huainan, Liu An, did not go insane after reading his grandmother's book, and he successfully cultivated to become an immortal.

When I heard this description.

Zhang Chulan and Xu San, who knew the inside story, couldn't hold it in for a moment.

But thinking that this matter must not be exposed, they still held back and did not explode.

Looking at the expressions of the two people.

Everyone present was smart and immediately realized that Zhang Chulan might know the specific inside story.

However, everyone was tactful enough not to ask, and instead listened attentively to Feng Baobao's subsequent note reading.

Subsequently.

A voice came into everyone's ears.

When I heard this story, I immediately realized that the grandmother of King Huainan Liu An was Yi Xiaochuan. I just don't understand how Yi Xiaochuan had such good fortune that she could actually give birth to a child.

I didn't dwell on this for too long, but continued to listen to Master Cui's story.

[It is said that after Taoist Cui went to Tangwu Mountain, he experienced many thrilling adventures along the way, and finally successfully found the golden toad. The golden toad had always longed to leave Tangwu Mountain, so it was willing to let Taoist Cui take it away.]

[But as fate would have it, the Heavenly Book that the Golden Toad was guarding was suppressed by the Golden Toad. After the Golden Toad was taken away, the Heavenly Book automatically emerged.]

[Master Cui originally didn't want to read it, but in the end he couldn't resist the allure of the heavenly book. He took a quick look and memorized two and a half lines of it.]

Who knew that upon seeing it, the golden toad and the Heavenly Book transformed into a streak of light and vanished? Old Taoist Cui was filled with regret, for his master, Taoist Cang Tian, had told him that if he gave in to the temptation and read the Heavenly Book, he would end up lonely and poor for the rest of his life.

[Master Cui knew that the deed had already been done, so he had no time to regret it and left the mountain to look for his master, Taoist Cang Tian.]

When he found his master, Cang Tian Dao Ren, he told him that this was just a calamity destined for him, and that if he did more good deeds in the future, he would live a peaceful and stable life until old age.

[Then his master, Taoist Cang Tian, unexpectedly passed away, a death beyond demise.]

After burying his master, Taoist Cui returned to his hometown of Jincheng, where he has lived ever since.

When everyone heard that Master Cui's master had suddenly died, they were all shocked.

Unexpectedly.

This Taoist Cang Tian died immediately after hearing the news. They thought he was some kind of otherworldly master.

Liu Deshui said at this time:

"It seems that Taoist Cui's master, Taoist Cang Tian, leaked the secret of heaven, which is why he died."

"Legend has it that revealing the secrets of heaven will lead to divine punishment. Perhaps this is the divine punishment."

"After all, what Master Cui said is really too bizarre."

Hearing Liu Deshui say this, Zhang Chulan on the side immediately thought of the time when the owner of the notebook was punished by God.

Perhaps there really is a divine punishment that can directly cause death.

at this time.

Feng Baobao has continued reading.

After Master Cui finished telling me all this, I asked him if he was afraid of divine retribution. Master Cui told me that the fact he dared to tell me this meant he wasn't afraid of divine retribution at all. He also told me that if I wanted to find the heavenly book, I needed a treasure.

I asked Taoist Cui what kind of treasure it was, and he told me it was the oil grate used to sell fried cakes outside Jincheng. It had to be the one that had been soaked in oil for hundreds of years without being replaced. The fire from this oil grate was a thousand-mile fire, and once lit, it could illuminate the Nine Netherworlds, and it would also allow one to avoid getting lost in Tangwu Mountain.

[Tangwu Mountain has now become a haunted mountain. To prevent the ghosts from dispersing, the wandering spirits that haven't been taken away by the underworld have gathered there. Anyone who enters without the Thousand-Mile Fire to guide them will surely be blinded by the ghosts.]

I originally wanted to ask if I could use the Samadhi True Fire if I didn't have the Thousand Mile Fire, but then I realized I couldn't break the rules and use other techniques anymore, so I resisted the urge and instead headed to the fried cake stand outside the city to buy an oil grate!

Chapter 228: The Notes Master Enters Taoism. The Book of Man, the opportunity for everyone to control their own destiny,

Taoist Cui and I arrived at the fried cake stall and successfully purchased the fried cake frying pan for five copper coins. Taoist Cui told me that I must not order all of the fried cakes at once, but must pick them out and order them one by one. Otherwise, even if I entered Tangwu Mountain, I would be possessed by a ghost and unable to escape.

After obtaining the oil grate, I headed towards Tangwu Mountain. I have to admit, this oil grate, soaked in oil for centuries, is truly remarkable. It holds a Bing Fire power, and once ignited, it can draw out a trace of the innate Bing Fire power.

After arriving outside Tangwu Mountain, I discovered that it had indeed become a place where demons and monsters resided. The concentration of Yin energy within was almost as high as that of the underground Qing Palace beneath Chulongyin.

Feng Xingtong suddenly asked curiously:

"If Tangwu Mountain is a place where ghosts and spirits gather, why is it that in modern times, we have never heard of the legend of Tangwu Mountain, or in other words, the name of Tangwu Mountain has disappeared?"

Seeing Feng Xingtong was so curious about Tang Wushan, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but say:

"You want to capture some evil spirits here, so you want to ask about the location of Tangwu Mountain."

Feng Xingtong immediately shook his head after hearing this.

"How could that be? You underestimate me too much. If you want to restrain the evil spirit, I have plenty of ways to do it, but I just don't want to do it."

Wang Zhenqiu was a little curious at this time.

"Why, don't you want to improve your strength?"

"You know, for the Feng family, who have the power to arrest spirits and dispatch generals, it's normal for them to arrest a few evil spirits for their own use."

Feng Xingtong shook his head.

"You all think that witchcraft is too simple. How could you possibly arrest evil spirits at will? After all, evil spirits are also living beings and part of nature."

"What our Feng family must do is to coexist peacefully with the spirits of this world, and only call on them for help when necessary."

Hearing Feng Xingtong say this, Wang Zhenqiu immediately said:

"Come on, if we really wanted to coexist peacefully, your great-grandfather Feng Tianyang wouldn't have invented the method of subduing spirits."

Feng Xingtong paused when he heard this.

The next moment, sadness came from my heart.

He thought of Grandpa Wang Zizhong again.

If he had not been eaten by Wang Bing, Grandpa Wang Zizhong would probably still be with him until now.

What happened next would never have happened.

Thinking of this, Feng Xingtong tried hard not to let her tears fall. Zhang Chulan also noticed that Feng Xingtong's mood was a little strange.

Then he spoke:

"I think even the Liangshan shamans have different paths to follow. It's like the Five Immortals Sect. Don't Qiaojie and the others have five different entry-level techniques?"

Wang Zhenqiu also realized that something was wrong at this time, and then stopped talking.
