Chapter 4 The Faceless God Statue This seated disciple placed it for him personally...
Jimo Chi didn't have so many rules, after Xing Yishan gave away the messenger talisman and got permission to travel, the matter of apprenticeship would be considered complete.
But accepting apprentices is not a small matter, and the meeting gift that should be given must be given.Jimo lived late for more than 300 years and never accepted a disciple. He looked at Xingyishan up and down, trying to see what Xingyishan lacked now.
Xing Yishan is a disciple of the Cang Qiong Sect, who practices the Cang Qiong Sect's mind method, and only uses the ordinary saber that the Cang Qiong sends to the disciples in the sect.Although the master who did good deeds was the head of the Cang Qiong Sect, and by chance, he got a sword with a slightly better handle than ordinary disciples, but that was not something that Jimo Chi could take a fancy to.
The mind is poor, and the magic weapon is also poor. When will a little doll like Xing Yishan be able to cultivate to the realm of the hole?
A good deed has few eyes, without Yu Lian who can observe words and expressions. Seeing Jimo Chi staring at him with complicated expressions, shaking his head and sighing, he was extremely nervous, and hesitated: "Master Wuzhang, is it because my aptitude is too poor? Embarrassing you?"
In fact, he doesn't really want to call Master Jimochi for doing good deeds, because to him, Jimochi is just a chance for him, and the head of the Sky Sect is the master who takes him on the path of cultivation and teaches him how to behave .Fortunately, Jimochi didn't care about these things, and after hearing Xing Yishan's words, he replied truthfully: "The mental method you are practicing now is too bad, I was thinking, where should I find a mental method that is more suitable for you?" .”
Hearing that Jimochi despised his own thoughts, he was a little unhappy when he did a good deed. He was sent from the sky, so he naturally didn't like others to say that the things of the sky school were not good, let alone go against his will because of temporary interests.
But Jimo was slow to speak, as if he always didn't take the Cangqiong faction seriously.
"Master Wuzhang, the mind of the Cang Qiong Sect is not bad." After practicing compassion and forbearance, he still couldn't help retorting: "It's because the disciple is stupid and can't understand the mystery of this mind, which makes Master Wuzhang laugh at you." .”
When Xing Yishan said this, although he lowered his head slightly, his attitude was very humble and polite, neither humble nor overbearing, and Jimo Chi couldn't open his mouth to ridicule anything with that look of taking all the faults on himself.
"Forget it, the future will last forever."
In the end, Jimochi had no choice but to say so.
But even though this is said on the surface, it is actually not the case.While looking through the system as if nothing had happened, Jimochi pondered in his heart how to trick Xingyi into cultivating evil ghosts, because among all kinds of ways, cultivating evil ghosts is the fastest way to progress, even though it is dangerous.
"Master Wuzhang, wait for me!"
After doing a good deed, he saw that Jimo was about to leave, so he hurriedly followed.After all, the master-student relationship should not be too tense, Jimo Chi doesn't like to talk, he can only take the initiative to stir up the burden of enlivening the atmosphere, he has nothing to say: "Master Wuzhang, why have I never heard of it before, Do you have a younger sister with such a high level of cultivation?"
Jimo didn't have time to do a good deed. He just used the newly earned [-] points of good deeds to open a VIP. He was watching the second episode of [Nine Heavens] while walking.
It's so annoying, the second episode only lasts less than a stick of incense, and there are such a long opening song and pre-story synopsis, what a waste!
Xing Yishan couldn't see the system frame in front of Jimochi, he only thought that he was such a temperament, and continued to talk without minding at all.
"Where are we going next?"
"casual."
"Then what shall we do?"
"do not know."
Xing Yishan choked.
"...Master Wuzhang, there are many people with better qualifications than me, why are you willing to accept me as an apprentice? Is it just because I have completed your two extremely simple tests?"
As soon as the words fell, Jimochi finally turned his head and took a look at Xing Yishan, and said earnestly: "Because I am both prosperous and prosperous with you now, and we are both damaged."
Doing a good deed does not understand.
Not long after I did a good deed, I was not beaten mercilessly by Jimo Chi as in the original plot, so I still retain my youthful character, without a city in my heart, and rarely think of others as bad. Master Zhang really respects him sincerely.
Jimo Chi didn't expect him to understand.
Between master and apprentice, the best results can be achieved only when the master teaches each other and the apprentice earnestly studies, trusts and understands each other.In order to solve Xing Yishan's doubts, Jimochi pressed the pause button, temporarily closed the system dialog box, pondered for a moment, and solemnly explained to Xing Yishan: "To tell you the truth, I accept you as an apprentice precisely because I am When I was fighting with those ten thousand ghosts... the elders of the Demon Sect, I accidentally suffered an internal injury, which has caused my spiritual power to be stagnant and difficult to mobilize, but there is something in you that can restore my power."
Jimo Chi told the half-truth and half-false lies, and he didn't shy away from Yu Lian who was following him at all, but because he was so honest, he dispelled Yu Lian's doubts these days, and made Yu Lian give up in time to "take advantage of his illness." His life, hurry up and find a new boss" thought.
Yu Lian thought: No wonder the Lord rarely used spells these days, and even if he used them, they were all insignificant little spells, originally for the purpose of recruiting disciples.
First design for Han Wuzhang to defeat Elder Yaoguang, let Han Wuzhang gain a foothold in the upper cultivation world, and then secretly beat and disable Han Wuzhang. Taking advantage of Han Wuzhang's time of retreat and healing, under the guise of Han Wuzhang's name, using the injury as an excuse to search for suitable disciples of the righteous way , to lure these righteous disciples into doing their secret work of the Myriad Ghost Sect...
wonderful!Your lord, this trick is really wonderful!If the Lord has meat to eat, even if Yu Lian dies, she will die in the Wanguizong!
Seeing that his right guardian was being fooled along the way, Jimo slowed down, raised his hand and patted Shang Yishan's shoulder, "Don't worry, I just happened to need a disciple, I just happened to meet you, and happened to be broken by you." It's just a test, you are a good boy, and a child like you should know how to repay your kindness."
"Master Wuzhang means..."
Jimo Chi looked at Xing Yishan seriously, and deliberately raised his voice and said: "Cultivation skills cannot be taught in vain. After you have completed your cultivation, I will take something from you, but don't worry, although the process of taking it is a bit troublesome, But it will never endanger your life."
In fact, how can there be any rare things in Doing One Kindness that are worth remembering by Jimo Chi?For Jimochi, as long as he does a good deed and listens to him and cultivates well, it is the best reward for him.
The reason why Jimochi said this was firstly to appease Yu Lian, making her think that she really had a plan for Xing Yishan, and secondly, to appease Xing Yishan, making Xing Yishan believe that he really wanted to accept apprentices, and that he had to Accepting apprentices, after all, the two "tests" set up just now are really too simple.
"So that's how it is. I understand that the two tests set by Master Wuzhang seem to be simple and rough, but in fact there is a mystery hidden in them. In essence, they want to screen out good-natured people who are not afraid of trouble. After getting the benefits, I regretted it and refused to give it to you."
Jimo nodded his head and said: "If you have to think that way, it's not impossible." After finishing speaking, he took his attention away from Xing Yishan and planned to continue watching the second episode of "Nine Heavens".
Jimochi really wanted to know, according to the development of the original plot, where the Sky Sect was destroyed 50 years later, and where did Xing Yishan go alone.
But Jimochi's curiosity was once again interrupted by an unexpected incident.
Originally, I was just walking in a random direction, but I didn't expect to walk back outside Qiandeng Town by accident, and I didn't expect that the originally closed city gate was suddenly opened, and a large number of people poured out of the city, all of them holding their hands. Carrying a basket of apples, they went west together, talking and laughing.
The voices of the people talking and laughing were too loud, and Jimochi was disturbed and couldn't hear what the system was saying clearly, so he had to fork off the second episode in displeasure, "What happened? Do people in this town grow apples for a living? ?”
Yu Lian scratched her head, changed into a smiling face in an instant, stopped a person who looked more honest, and asked with a sweet smile: "Uncle, what are you doing here? Why is everyone carrying fruit baskets in their hands? "
The person who was stopped was a middle-aged man in his 40s, with a thin body. When he spoke, his eyebrows shrugged. "Little girl, you are not a local, right?"
Yu Lian nodded, she really rarely came to the lower cultivation world.
"That's right, let me tell you, the Qi'an Festival is a custom that only we have in Qiandeng Town. Every year on this day, we have to take apples and go to the Qi'an Temple outside the city to worship the Yuan Xianzun. Cheng Yuan Xianzun is our great benefactor of Qiandeng Town!"
"Chengyuan Immortal Venerable..."
Hearing this, Jimo Chi chewed the four words in his mouth carefully, and frowned in confusion.
Since he can be honored, he should be a very powerful person. Why didn't he know that there is such a person in the cultivation world?Well, it's good to go to see the excitement once in a while.
"It is said that many, many years ago, our place was famous for being haunted by ghosts. Every night, there would be countless ghosts wandering the streets and alleys. Evil ghosts often ate people, causing the people to suffer unbearably. It is said that later, a god with magic came from nowhere, and helped the big guy subdue the evil spirits. The big guy was grateful to him, so he built a temple for him, made a golden body, and set the day when he came here as a prayer. An Festival means praying for peace.”
They walked forward while chatting, not long after, the three of them followed the uncle to the gate of the temple.
This is a modest temple with a very low threshold and a small room. There is only a small wooden table in the room. There are several plates of apples on the small wooden table. Behind the wooden table is a square stone base. On the stone base, The statue of Chengyuan Xianzun is holding a long sword and standing majestically. The so-called golden body is not pure gold, but brass covered with gold.
Overall, it is not very rich, but it is very tidy, and it looks like it has been carefully maintained.
Jimo has lived hundreds of years late, and has seen all kinds of rare things. He is no longer interested in this kind of folk tales about exorcising ghosts. He just glanced at the statue of Chengyuan Xianzun, and then turned his eyes elsewhere.
The immortals sealed up by mortals in the lower cultivation world may not necessarily have any real abilities.
Xing Yishan felt the deepest, looked up at the statue full of longing, and praised: "Although I don't know who this immortal is, but he is willing to protect the safety of one side, and his benevolence in killing evil and evil is very admirable. "
Jimochi, who is known as the leader of the demons in the world, said, "..."
Xing Yishan didn't see Jimochi's face changing, and continued to ask with great interest: "Old man, why is this fairy wearing a mask? Is he ugly?"
"You don't know about this. It is said that the Immortal Master Cheng Yuan is very good-looking, but when he was catching ghosts, he was unfortunately eroded by the ghost energy to his face, causing the wound on his face to be delayed in healing, rotten and festered, dripping with blood. Zun was afraid that his appearance would scare the people, so he had to live with a mask all day long. After Xianzun left, the people deliberately did not carve his face when they built a temple for him in order to remember the sacrifice made by Xianzun. "
While talking, he picked out an apple from the fruit basket and stuffed it into Xing Yishan, and pushed him with a smile: "Come on, little brother, you also go and offer a fruit to the immortal, it will keep you safe!"
Xing Yishan did not refuse, he took the apple with both hands, put it in the fruit bowl in front of the statue, and saluted the statue respectfully.
"What do you ask him for? The rumors in the mortal population are often exaggerated. They can be injured by a few little ghosts and can't be cured. It is estimated that their cultivation base is not much higher. They can only deceive ordinary people who don't know anything. Forget it, now that you are my disciple and you are a Golden Core Stage cultivator, you don't need to worship such half-baked people and lose your status."
There was a buzzing in his ears, he turned his head instinctively, and saw Jimochi staring at him with a gloomy face, the few words just now were all Jimochi's voice transmission to him.
Xing Yishan disagreed, and couldn't help explaining to Jimochi through voice transmission: "No matter what level of cultivator he is, he is worthy of my worship."
Jimochi was suddenly refuted, and was briefly taken aback.
It has been more than 200 years since he ruled the Dao of Demons, brought all the respectable Demon Cultivators in the world under his command, and set up a flag to honor him, almost no one dared to refute his words face to face.
How did you deal with those who didn't listen to him before?It seems... all killed?
When the two were in a stalemate, the offering fruit that Xing Yishan put in the fruit plate suddenly fell to the ground without warning.
Xing Yishan looked at Jimochi subconsciously, and Jimochi raised his eyebrows, saying that it was none of his business, he had no time to deal with an apple.
He picked up the offering fruit and put it back on the fruit plate. After a while, the offering fruit fell to the ground by itself under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Put it again, drop it again.
The offerings made by other people are fine, but those who have done a good deed will not do.
This……
Xing Yishan's eyes widened in a daze, looking down at the fruit bowl for a while, and looking up at the god statue for a while, a little confused whether this kind of thing was just a coincidence or a real evil.
It's just three things, try again.Do a good deed.
This time, Xing Yishan picked a big and red offering fruit, first bowed devoutly to the statue, and then carefully put the offering fruit on it, but it still failed.
The anomaly in Xingyishan soon attracted a lot of people who love to watch the excitement. The big guys all came together and looked at the four apples on the ground in amazement.
"The Immortal Venerable only eats offerings from good people, little brother, you must have done something wrong!"
"Yeah, that's right, it won't work if you put four fruit offerings in succession, you must have done something bad in private..."
"That's right, I heard from the old man at home that although the Immortal Venerable left our Qiandeng Town a long time ago, he left a trace of spirit on this golden statue. Although he was blinded by the evil spirit, he could see clearly. People's hearts."
"You young man, you look like a human being on the surface, but you didn't expect to have such a bad heart, so bad that even the immortals don't want to eat your offering."
"..."
The people's accusations became more and more ugly, and Xing Yishan stood at a loss beside the small wooden table, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Why is this happening?
"Tsk, I'm so troublesome. I told you not to worship him a long time ago. How can an unknown person afford the fruits of offerings from my disciples?"
While performing a good deed with his face flushed and trying to explain to the people clumsily, Jimochi squeezed through the crowd, bent down to pick up the four offering fruits on the ground, threaded them into a bunch with a long wooden stick, and nailed them to the wood. on the table.
"Here, isn't this enough? Isn't it just the fruit of the last offering? How can there be so many nonsense? Since the fruit offering was made for him by this disciple himself, he has to eat it even if he doesn't want to eat it."
Do a good deed: "..."
