Chapter 33 The Ghost King Appears After the Farewell Banquet
A month after returning from Dahuai Town, Wu Yi got the news that Yun Sa Zhenren, who was visiting the Taoist temple, was about to leave, and asked all the disciples to go and see him off.
Wu Yi did not have much feeling for Yun Sa Zhenren who saved his life. After all, the gap was too big, and there was no chance of contact. Whether he was there or not had no effect on Wu Yi. So Wu Yi just followed the crowd to say goodbye.
The same banquet, the same seating, the same laughter, the same witty remarks, and the same performance of Wu Yi. He was also eating and drinking without caring about what occasion he was in. However, he was specially arranged to sit in the corners by the person who arranged him, so he did not need to pay attention to these details.
The difference was that this time it was a farewell banquet. The singing and dancing at the banquet brought some feelings of farewell, and seemed much sad. The disciples below had different faces, and unlike the last time when they were excited, most of them looked lonely, but there were one or two people who could not suppress their joy. Wu Yi could guess the reason with his toes. It was nothing more than the wine prepared by the begging family caught the Zhenren's eye and was accepted.
Indeed, the wine was sent up to open up an excellent relationship for himself. In the future, as long as it is not excessive, the real master will not mind asking for help.
But Wu Yi, who has no wine, has nothing to do with these. If he had not been lucky enough to realize the sense of qi a few days ago, he would have been discussed more in the sect.
Even now, Wu Yi has developed the sense of qi after only half a month of entering the sect. Some disciples privately believe that it is Wang Chuchen who secretly cultivates and personally instructs him. He has no shortage of pills, powders, pastes, and pills, and uses resources to pile up. Some disciples even deliberately make friends with Wu Yi for this, intending to please Wang Chuchen.
Thinking of this, Wu Yi couldn't help laughing in his heart. If others don't know Wang Chuchen's expression, will he not know it? The changes before and after fully explain what is the supremacy of interests. The so-called relationship is just a fig leaf under the interests. It's just that everyone in the cultivation world is like this, so there is no need to sigh too much.
Xu and Xu also understood this very well. Wu Yi glanced at Xu and Xu who were not far ahead. They used excuses many times to get close to Yun Sa.
Wu Yi only learned from other disciples who failed to deliver wine that the two had brought a lot of wine when they came here, and they successfully delivered it. They should have known Yun Sa's hobby a long time ago and planned it for a long time.
However, Yun Sa showed his love of wine in front of many disciples. I don't know how many rare wines he has delivered in the past month. It is very difficult for the two to stand out. Just looking at the two people's confident look, they must have other outstanding features.
The farewell banquet came to an end. Yun Sa stood up and was about to leave, and the others stood up to see him off.
"Junior brother, see you in the inner sect." Yun Sa said to Wang Chuchen. For a disciple like Wang Chuchen who was sent out from the inner sect to become the master of the outer sect, it would be difficult for him to have the opportunity to re-enter the inner sect if he had not been promoted to the Jindan Zhenren. After all, being sent out means that there is no one in the inner sect and he is excluded. Otherwise, there are many jobs in the inner sect. Even guarding a small pavilion is much better than being sent out. It is easy to enter the eyes of the inner sect master, receive guidance, and comprehend scriptures. It is much more convenient.
Yun Sa said this because he believed in Wang Chuchen and believed that he would definitely be promoted to the Jindan realm. Wang Chuchen smiled slightly and did not answer. Just looking at the expression on his face, he knew that he was full of confidence in his heart.
"Goodbye, senior brother." Wang Chuchen also replied.
The two bowed to each other and said goodbye. The scene was free and easy, and there was no trace of sad emotion. Although the cultivators stole the fortune of heaven and earth and had a much longer lifespan than ordinary people, they actually spent most of their time on cultivation. Often, when they came out of seclusion, things were no longer the same, and parting sometimes meant a farewell forever.
Yun Sa and Wang Chuchen were both free and easy people. Since they were saying goodbye, they didn't look back three steps. Yun Sa rode the sword light and jumped into the sky, and disappeared in a flash.
The main person left, and there was no point for the others to stay, so they bowed to Wang Chuchen and left in twos and threes.
Wu Yi did not return to the cave. He had an appointment today, and the location was Qibu Town. The person who asked him was Li Tian, and the reason was to thank Wu Yi for escorting him on the way back to Dahuai Town. Although Wu Yi was puzzled why he had to wait until the Dahuai Town incident was over for so long before looking for him, he didn't think much about it, just thinking that Li Tian wanted to connect with Wang Chuchen in his own way.
Originally, Wu Yi didn't want to go, but the invitation sent by Li Tian was attached with four words at the end - Be careful of the Ge family, which immediately reminded Wu Yi of the yellow talisman letter he received the night before he got angry, and after that he was impeached by Liu He.
The letter that night was sent to him by Li Tian, or he knew it very well, anyway, it was inseparable from it. Wu Yi thought for a while, changed his mind, and decided to go to the appointment.
Going alone to the town closest to the Taoist temple, Wu Yi wondered why Li Tian asked him out. The first time he saw him was during the morning class, and Wu Yi didn't think well of him. The second time Wu Yi saw him was after he was knocked down by the evil ghost in Dahuai Town. In general, he didn't have much interaction with Wu Yi.
Wu Yi suddenly stopped, and a bright light flashed in his eyes, Li Tian, Li Gu, Li family, Runan Li family. Wu Yi suddenly remembered some of the private discussions of other disciples, and gradually grasped a clear thread by connecting them.
Li Gu, as far as I can see, is on Wang Chuchen's side. So it seems that Li Tian sent a letter to Wu Yi under Li Gu's instruction. The purpose of the letter should be to let Wu Yi know who the enemy is, and at the same time to tell him to be law-abiding and not let others catch him.
Could it be that Li Gu has another instruction, but there is something that cannot be sent by letter, and he must go outside. Although he roughly deduced the purpose of Li Tian's asking him out, Wu Yi still felt vaguely uneasy in his heart, and he didn't know why.
But Wu Yi often had this feeling, and he didn't take it to heart. He just carefully observed the surroundings as usual. A cautious person is not good to say that he is suspicious and makes a fuss. But it must be said that Wu Yi's suspicious nature did help him resolve many difficulties.
When he was close to the place Li Tian told him, Wu Yi found out that the place where Li Tian asked him to meet was the best restaurant in Qibu Town. Li Tian also bought a quiet and elegant small courtyard, and I don't know how much it cost.
The yard is full of beautiful flowers and herbs. Unlike other restaurants that are just for show, these are all real spiritual plants. Although they don't have much spiritual energy, they are worlds apart from ordinary grasses. Ordinary people can prolong their lives by getting one of them.
It is rumored that the owner of this restaurant is a disciple of the Taoist temple who has not made great achievements in cultivation, and there are many noble families behind him. From this point of view, it is not far from the truth.
Pushing open the door, there are no other people on both sides except a few servants and singing girls. There is a bit more wildness in the mountains and forests, and the layout can be said to be very attentive.
"Ancient vines are across the sky, bamboos are light lotus, and frogs are chirping in the pond. It is really a good place for seclusion." Wu Yi looked at the scenery in the yard and couldn't help but say that this place is much more luxurious than his cave. At least his cave doesn't have so many spiritual plants.
"Junior Brother Wu is here, please come in, I have been waiting for a long time," Li Tian greeted Wu Yi warmly when he saw him coming, and said to the singer behind him: "The main guest is here, you guys hurry up and sing." Soon, the sound of silk began to echo in the quiet courtyard, which had the effect of refreshing the mind and calming the mind. It was very suitable for people like Wu Yi who had realized the great way of tranquility.
Li Tian, with a warm smile on his face, seemed to be a different person from the one who fought after the morning class. He could switch his role at any time when his strength was low, which was the so-called slickness. What kind of person he chose to be depended on what kind of person he was needed to be under the background at that time. It was a must-learn lesson for the children of the family.
Having seen countless such people, Wu Yi was already familiar with it and chatted with Li Tian familiarly, as if they were old friends for many years, without any estrangement or grudge.
What Wu Yi didn't know was that at this time, two figures were looming in the sky above the courtyard. One was Yun Sa Zhenren who had already "left", and the other was Wang Chuchen. They were looking at the scene below, or at "Li Tian" below.
"Brother, have you confirmed it?" Wang Chuchen asked.
"In the past month, I have investigated in many ways. The ghost king should be living in this disciple. As soon as I left, it seemed to have recovered its strength. It must have regarded me as a fool." Yun Sa said lightly. It turned out that the ghost in Dahuai Town was not a ghost that was about to be promoted to a ghost king, but a ghost king. I don't know what Wu Yi thought after knowing it, whether he would feel that he was so bold.
"In this case, please protect another disciple."
"Don't worry, with me here, the ghost will definitely not be able to wreak havoc. Being able to comprehend the Dao Yun in the first stage of Qi Refining is also a first-class genius in the inner sect. It cannot be lost. It's a pity for the disciple who is living there. The aptitude is also good." Yun Sa said proudly.
Wang Chuchen didn't respond and remained silent. Yun Sa smiled lightly, knowing what Wang Chuchen meant. How could an ordinary disciple compare to a disciple who had comprehended Dao Yun? This was the golden elixir of the future sect.
If the news that Wu Yi had comprehended Dao Yun in the first stage of Qi Refining was spread, there would be many old people in the inner sect who would be interested, and even the person who discovered it would have a great reward. Should I say something to my master? Yun Sa was entangled in his heart, not knowing whether he should have another junior brother.
But it was precisely because of comprehending Dao Yun that Wu Yi was targeted by the ghost king living in Li Tian. In fact, after the golden elixir, some evil ways robbed others of Dao Yun cultivation, although the consequences were great, because Dao Yun, if not comprehended by oneself, would be rejected by heaven and earth, and could not borrow much power from heaven and earth.
This method is rarely used even among ghosts, but the ghost king living in Li Tian's body has lost some strength for some reason and needs to recover himself urgently, so he doesn't care so much. He will recover some strength first, and then expel the alien Dao Yun from his body when he can use the power of heaven and earth. It won't take too much time, otherwise he will not even have the strength to resist when he is discovered by the cultivators.
Just like now that Wu Yi has comprehended the Dao Yun, even if he occupies Li Tian's body, he dare not act easily because he is too seriously injured, and he has to create opportunities.
Suddenly Li Tian dispersed the servants and singers around him, and said to Wu Yi: "Junior brother, the Ge family has made another move recently."
Just raised the wine glass in his hand, Wu Yi put it down heavily when he heard this, and looked surprised and asked: "What should I do?"
"Seeing that you have become a force to be reckoned with, the Ge family does not want to be suppressed by the master of the temple, so they plan to kill you." Li Tian said solemnly.
"Does the deacon have any advice?" Wu Yi asked hurriedly.
"Don't worry, the deacon expected the Ge family to do this, so he sent me to deliver a talisman, which contains a back-up plan for the deacon. As long as it is not a professor-level person, it should be fine." Li Tian took out a black and purple talisman from his sleeve and carefully handed it to Wu Yi.
Looking at the talisman in his hand, Wu Yi showed gratitude on his face, but his heart was in turmoil. The reason was that the ghost told him that there was a powerful ghost sealed in this talisman, at least a demon ghost, relying on the induction between the same kind.
Wu Yi suddenly felt that there was a hot potato in his hand, and he couldn't wait to throw it away. At the same time, he also aroused endless vigilance against Li Tian. Where did he get the demon ghost, and why did he give it to himself. The three paths of spirit, energy and spirit merged into one, ready to leave this place at any time, and the sense of danger before also surged, stronger than ever.
Li Tian stood up and walked towards Wu Yi, wanting to pat Wu Yi on the shoulder. Wu Yi, who was extremely nervous, thought that Li Tian was going to make the next move, so he took the initiative to shoot out several air blades, and the mist also spread. Wu Yi originally wanted to destroy the talisman in his hand, but it was too tough to damage, so he had to throw it far away. Then he left the yard with a gust of wind under his feet.
Li Tian's eyes flashed with green light, his face was gloomy, he stomped his feet suddenly, ignored the mist, and chased Wu Yi in front of him.
At the same time, he spent a lot of money to remove the seal in the talisman. Why did he seal the ghosts? It was also a last resort. The evil ghosts in Dahuai Town were all because of its reduced strength. After the yin energy on its body dissipated, it became rational and became clones.
That is to say, hundreds of evil ghosts are actually his clones. With his reduced strength, he can no longer control his clones, so he doesn't care about them and lets them be killed by Yun Sa. He just wants to keep a ghost for self-defense, so he seals one, but he doesn't want to use it, because the evil ghost clone is not very intelligent, it is completely his legacy.
But now Wu Yi somehow found it. Although he doesn't know how he found it, now is not the time to consider this, so he has to use it.
The roar of the ghost came from behind, causing everyone in Qibu Town to scatter in fear. Li Tian hated it very much. After today's incident, he had to escape. He couldn't stay there at all. He had to fight quickly, and his attack on Wu Yi became much more fierce.
Seeing Wu Yi in danger, Wang Chuchen saw that Yun Sa didn't move, so he wanted to go down to kill the ghost, but Yun Sa stopped him and said: "It's not time yet." He looked at Wu Yi with strange eyes.
