Chapter 173 Corpse Collector

Seeing that Tian Lin had no intention of competing for the position of Shuiyun Sect's outer disciple, Cui'er and Yu'er's hearts dropped.

It is often said in the secular world that "a person can attain enlightenment, a chicken or a dog can ascend to heaven." This is also true in the world of cultivation.

Aren't the fates of these sword-holding maids tied to their masters?

At night, Tian Lin continued to practice the Buddha and Demon Freedom Kung Fu, and the two sisters naturally went back to their rooms to rest.

Cui'er picked up the pen, scribbled a line of words on the table, and handed it to Yu'er.

Seeing Cui'er's indignant look, Yu'er was also a little helpless.

She wrote in reply:

"The family gave us to the master and didn't want us to go back. Besides, we fought for the master's place ourselves. How can there be room for the two of us to 'sit' in the Tong Mansion?"

The two of them have now learned to communicate through words, thus avoiding being overheard by outsiders or even Tian Lin.

"Then we are going to fish with this master for the rest of our lives? He doesn't even have money to buy the Water God Pill himself, so how can he help us build a foundation?"

After Cui'er finished replying on the paper, Yu'er did not take over the writing, but said: "Maybe this is our fate."

After saying this, she felt a surge of energy in her palm, and the paper in her hand instantly turned into fly ash.

And Cui'er's expression was just like the ashes burned by the flames, infinitely despairing.

life?

Should you accept your bad fate?

——

Early the next morning, when Tian Lin went out, he saw Gao He and Cai Shu changing into different outfits.

Although their clothes were still their usual clothes, they had two extra trousers.

When Tian Lin went out, Gao He was still playing with something like Sinan in his hand.

When Tian Lin appeared, he smiled and said: "Fellow Taoist Tian, ​​from now on we will also become the 'fishermen' of Shenxian Pond."

Tian Lin paid more attention to the 'Si Nan' in his hand and asked him: "What magic weapon is this in your hand?"

"This is a soul pointing needle. I borrowed it from a soul cultivator friend. It can sense resentful souls within one mile without using spiritual consciousness."

Tian Lin was shocked and couldn't help but take another look at the soul-pointing needle.

He ate the True Eye Fruit and could see the resentful souls without spiritual consciousness.

But there is no one who eats the true eye fruit, unless it is a golden elixir monk. Otherwise, we can only rely on spiritual consciousness to detect resentful souls——

However, spiritual consciousness will be hindered in the fog, and it is easy to be attacked when looking outside, so most foundation-building monks will not easily look outside.

"Fellow Taoist Gao really has friends all over the world, which Tian admires."

Tian Lin put on a high hat, and Gao He accepted it calmly and said: "A wealthy couple is indispensable. Fellow Taoist Tian, ​​you need to make more friends."

At this time, Cai Shu urged Gao He: "Let's go quickly. It's too late and all the resentful souls have been taken away."

The two of them walked in a hurry, leaving behind Tian Lin who followed leisurely behind.

When Tian Lin arrived at Shenxian Pond, he had already seen more than a dozen foundation-building monks.

These foundation-building monks may not all be worshiped by the Tong family, but they all have soul-gathering beads in their hands.

In addition to these foundation-building monks, there are many people with Qi-refining skills who have also taken soul-gathering beads and are discussing about going to sea together.

Looking at the dense group of monks, Tian Lin knew that this was Shuiyun Sect's strength.

Only if Shuiyun Sect spoke out could so many monks come to Shenxiantang to take risks for the sake of profit.

Tian Lin guessed that many people would die in Shenxiantang.

But he also firmly believed that for a long time to come, more and more monks would gather in Shenxiantang.

Seeing the grand occasion of "thousands of people going to sea", Tian Lin was not in a hurry to join in.

When he arrived at the tea shop, he looked at Zhang Xiaoke who was holding the ceremony with him and said, "You won't be fishing anymore?"

Zhang Xiaoke smiled bitterly and said, "Why are we still fishing? People like us can't even afford talisman paper, so how can we dare to go to sea?"

Tian Lin smiled and said: "Selling things here may not necessarily make less than fishing. In my opinion, more and more people will gather here in the future, and there will be no shortage of opportunities to earn spiritual stones on this shore."

While he was talking, he squatted in front of Zhang Xiaoke's pavilion. The pavilion was placed on the ground with only a felt, and on the felt were placed various medicine bottles and some talismans found from nowhere.

"Senior, is there anything you want? You can take whatever you want."

After Zhang Xiaoke finished speaking politely, Tian Linzhen picked up a small jade bottle.

He wiped the dust on the bottle cork with his fingers, then opened the small jade bottle and put it to the tip of his nose to smell it.

The young man next to Zhang Xiaoke looked a little ugly, because the medicine in the bottle Tian Lin got was not cheap.

Zhang Xiaoke had just spoken out loudly. If Tian Lin was so shameless and refused to pay, what could they say, and what could they dare to say?

"What is this? Why haven't I seen it in the alchemy shop in Pingyang City?"

Tian Lin asked, and Zhang Xiaoke explained:

"These are all brought by the monks who recently entered Pingyang City to call for the divine elixir. You can use this elixir to restore your soul after being attacked by evil spirits.

Even though the senior is a foundation-building monk, he can actually carry a few with him. After all, there might be wandering gods in this heavy fog. "

According to the classification of resentful souls by soul cultivators, the ordinary ones are the wandering souls, followed by the night wandering gods, and then the day wandering gods.

Generally, monks will associate wandering spirits with spiritual masters, but in fact, spiritual masters who have never practiced exorcism are easily injured when encountering wandering spirits.

The Night Wandering God is a more powerful being than the Wandering Soul, and corresponds to the Foundation Establishment Monk.

"What you said makes sense. In this heavy fog, there is no guarantee that we will meet the Night God and the Day God."

Tian Lin thought of the painted boat he saw that day and the leader Xun on the painted boat.

According to Tian Lin's guess, Sect Leader Xun has now become the Night God.

"There are only two of these pills?"

Tian Lin put the stopper back in place and asked Zhang Xiaoke, "I don't know how much this pill costs?"

Zhang Xiaoke waved his hand and said, "Since Xiaoke said he was giving it to you, how can I accept your spirit stones?"

Tian Lin said, "Since you call me senior, how can I take advantage of you? Besides, you are in need of spirit stones right now."

Tian Lin was referring to Zhang Xiaoke's attempt to earn spirit stones to redeem his shell.

"I got this pill from the soul cultivator. Just give me three spirit stones."

After Zhang Xiaoke finished speaking, Tian Lin did not hesitate and directly took out three spirit stones from his storage bag and gave them to Zhang Xiaoke.

Of course, he did not buy this pill to restore his soul after being attacked.

But because the entry showed that this was the auxiliary pill for practicing Tianyisheng Shui Jue, 'Tianyisheng Shui Dan'.

What kind of magical power is "Tianyisheng Shui Jue"?

Tian Lin looked up the cultivation method of the Five Elements Golden Pill Art, and knew that in addition to the Water God Art, there was also the "Tian Yisheng Water Art" that could cultivate the Five Elements Dharmakaya.

Tian Lin could not find the ingredients that could produce the [Water God Pill], so he had not practiced the Water God Art.

But now that he had obtained the "Tian Yisheng Water Pill", he wanted to practice the Tian Yisheng Water Art to achieve the Water Dharmakaya.

"But, this Tian Yisheng Water Art is the magical power of the Shuiyun Sect. The Shuiyun Sect is not short of money, so how could it sell this magical power to outsiders?"

Tian Lin took out the soul-gathering bead from the storage bag.

He was not interested in becoming an outer disciple of the Shuiyun Sect, but he was very interested in the Shuiyun Sect's "Tian Yisheng Water Art".

I just don't know if the Shuiyun Sect would be willing to do it if he used the opportunity to become an outer disciple in exchange for the "Tian Yisheng Water Art"?

"In fact, the Dao Sect also has a magical power similar to the "Tian Yisheng Shui Jue", but it's a pity that it's useless without the auxiliary pills I can take.

This Tian Yisheng Shui Jue, although it is a magical spell, is not the secret method of the Shuiyun Sect. I may be able to make a plan."

Tian Lin made up his mind and finally released the flying boat to the west.

He had no intention of fishing today, nor did he come here to catch resentful souls.

He just wanted to see what the situation in Chenxiantang was like now--

On this way, the coastal area was not full of ships, but also hundreds of ships were competing for the current.

Many foundation-building cultivators were full of confidence and went straight to the distant sea in the south.

Looking at the Qi-refining masters who occasionally passed by, Tian Lin's eyes turned and suddenly an idea came to his mind.

When he was fishing before, he was afraid that the storage bag would be lost when fighting with the fish monster, so he never brought the storage bag.

But this does not mean that he cannot bring the storage bag into the sea.

Tian Lin wanted to take the storage bag with him now, not to fight the fish monsters in the sea, but because he thought of the uncommon profession of "corpse retriever".

"Even if these monks don't have any magic weapons, they also have one or two pieces of talisman paper. And these talisman papers can also be sold for a lot of spiritual stones.

They fell into the water, and others didn't dare to salvage them in Chenxiantang. But since I'm not afraid of the water in Chenxiantang, why don't I pick up corpses in the sea?"

Tian Lin had an idea in his mind, so he took a boat to a distance.

He simply put his boat back into the storage bag, and the whole person and the storage bag sank into the sea together.

In Chenxiantang, in the sea area to the west, there are more fish monsters than before.

Tian Lin looked at the fish monsters vigilantly, fearing that these fish monsters would attack him.

These fish monsters are like steel knives from the tail fin to the dorsal fin, which can easily cut through people's clothes and skin.

Tian Lin only has one piece of precious clothes on his body, but he has two storage bags.

But whether it was clothes or storage bags that were cut by the fish monster, it was a huge loss.

"Next time there is a chance, you can actually apply some medicine on your body!"

Tian Lin applied medicine on the thousand-year-old wood when he went out to sea. This medicine makes fish monsters disgusted and stay away. Applying it on the thousand-year-old wood can prevent the thousand-year-old wood from being attacked.

No one has ever applied it on themselves, because this thing is poisonous after all.

Tian Lin is not afraid of poison, but is worried that the poison will not stay on his skin for a long time and will be completely absorbed by his body.

This time, he quietly went to the near sea.

And fish monsters like two-headed fish never go to the near sea.

Finally, Tian Lin didn't swim under the sea for long, and he heard a splash.

He vaguely saw a figure on a wooden boat not far away falling directly into the lake.

Tian Lin swam towards the figure without any hesitation.

On the sea, a middle-aged man looked ashen at the moment, as if he was possessed by evil spirits.

His body continued to sink, and an iron sword fell to the bottom of the sea with him.

Next to the middle-aged man, there was a 'Soul-finding Needle' and a small medicine bottle that continued to fall.

Tian Lin could not release his spiritual consciousness in the sea, and he could not rely on his spiritual consciousness to control the storage bag.

Fortunately, the man did not throw many things, and they were not big. Tian Lin just reached out and grabbed the iron sword that fell with the man, the Soul-finding Needle and the small medicine bottle.

After getting the things, Tian Lin kicked his feet and directly climbed onto the thousand-year-old wooden boat that the middle-aged man 'left behind'.
