In the afternoon, a mysterious person came to Yilan Courtyard.
The man had an ordinary face, shiny black beard, tall and thin, and his age could not be seen.
He is wearing a Taoist costume but holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, calling himself a Taoist real person.
"Really, please use tea." An Shi respectfully took the teacup from the girl's hand and handed it over to her personally.
"Yeah." Daoist Daoist sat on the main seat and took a sip of the tea cup in a dignified manner, and then asked, "Ma'am, it's because of the thing you said last time that Mrs. ?"
"yes."
An Shi sat down at the side, frowned and replied: "The realgar wine given by the real person last time seems to have no effect on that evildoer. I wonder if the evildoer's cultivation level is too high, and ordinary methods have no effect on it. So I want to ask the real person to go and see for himself, what kind of monster it is!"
Master Taoist stroked his shiny beard, and narrowed his eyes slightly while listening to An Shi's words.
Speaking of this real Daoist Buddha, he is really a bit capable.
Before An's family came out of the cabinet, a red fox raised by an aunt named Wang in An's mansion became a demon. Sucked into a skeleton.
Aunt Wang was very popular with An's father, and Mr. An sent all the doctors in the county to see Aunt Wang. The final conclusions are the same, the body is weak and the energy needs to be recuperated and toned.
Those doctors couldn't help looking at Mr. An with weird eyes when they were seeing a doctor, but none of them dared to speak out to advise this old man to be more restrained in matters of fish and water.
She has been mended and raised, but Aunt Wang's body is still getting worse day by day, and a good beauty is born thin and out of shape.
Some people in the family began to spread that Aunt Wang was possessed by a monster, and she was tortured by the monster like that!
An Shi still remembers that she sneaked to see Aunt Wang when no one was around because she was really curious.
Aunt Wang was lying on the bed, covered with a quilt, her whole body was like a piece of paper, without any bulge. With a skull-like head, the mouth was wide open, gasping for breath.
Anshi hid behind the curtain and was quite frightened by Aunt Wang's strange appearance. She was about to turn around and leave, but she suddenly saw a red fox jumping in from the half-opened window through the curtain.
An's knows this red fox. It is Aunt Wang's pet since she was a child.
An Shi saw the red fox jump onto Aunt Wang's bed, and then slipped into Aunt Wang's quilt from the gap in her neck. A small bag protruded from the flat quilt, and the small bag went all the way down...
Then, Aunt Wang, who was like a dead person, suddenly made a movement.
There was light in her lifeless eyes, and her complexion also turned from gray-white to strangely flushed. What was even more strange was that Aunt Wang's wide open mouth made intermittent moaning.
The voice sounded both painful and joyful. An Shi, who had not yet left the court, could not understand what kind of phenomenon it was, but his heart beat faster and his face turned red for no reason.
Just when An Shi was at a loss, a voice sounded like thunder from outside the door.
"Bold evildoer, how dare you harm people." Then a Taoist priest jumped in from the door, holding a jug in one hand and a string of Buddhist beads in the other, staring closely at the bed with a pair of bright eyes.
Hearing the sound, the fox jumped out of the blanket and was about to escape.
The Taoist had sharp eyesight and quick hands, he threw out the Buddhist beads in his hand, and immediately tied up the red fox.
"What a monstrosity, to practice such a dirty technique." Daoist Daoist pointed at the fox with his fingers together.
The fox actually opened his mouth to speak with a very magnetic male voice, he said that he is not a demon, but a spirit who has attained the Tao, and he can become a fairy in the future. As long as Daoist Daoist and Buddha let him go, after he becomes a fairy in the future, he will never forget his great kindness.
On the Shenyuan Continent, not only people can absorb the aura of the weather, but also the essence of the sun and the moon to practice.
As long as it is a living substance, it can be cultivated. When it cultivates a mind similar to that of a human being, it will become a spirit. It is possible to transform into a human form if it continues to practice, or even ascend to immortality.
Of course, these are all legends. Ordinary people don't even have the chance to see the real strong, let alone the legendary demons, demons, spirits, and monsters.
The red fox keeps emphasizing that he is a spirit and not a demon, because there is an essential difference between a demon and a spirit.
A demon is a ghost that remains after a person dies, and for some reason attaches to a living object and continues to survive. This object can be a person or any kind of animal.
The mutants produced by this kind of ghost are called demons.
Monsters and spirits are different, they cannot rely on the stolen body to absorb the aura of heaven and earth for cultivation, they need to use heretical methods to absorb the essence from other people's bodies to nourish themselves.
As long as there are monsters, they are all deceitful and vicious people. In order to eliminate them, a profession was created on Shenyuan Road, the monster catcher. Daoist Daoist is a demon catcher.
Master Daofo didn't listen to the red fox's sophistry, he stepped on its tail with his foot, raised his hand and poured the wine from the jug on the red fox.
An Shi only heard the red fox let out a scream, and then gray smoke came out of its mouth and nose.
The smoke slowly condensed into the shape of a man, and was collected into the beads by Daoist Daoist.
This was the first time in An's life and so far the only time he watched people catch monsters.
"I heard Madam's description, this young lady of your family doesn't look like a demon."
After listening to An's description of Yun Ruoyan, Taoist Master Daofo said.
An's doesn't know the specific difference between demons, spirits, demons, and monsters. Ordinary people even confuse these three kinds of existence.
She couldn't help being stunned for a moment after hearing the words of Master Daofo. Ever since Yi Qianying said that Yun Ruoyan was a demon, the more she looked at Yun Ruoyan, the more she looked like a demon.
Regarding Yun Ruoyan's performance for such a long time, judging from her words and demeanor, An Shi has already determined that Yun Ruoyan must be a monster. But Daofo Daoist suddenly said that Yun Ruoyan was not like a demon, which made her a little unacceptable.
"Impossible, real man."
An Shi hurriedly said: "It's impossible for a person to be completely reborn in a short period of time. Her speech, demeanor, and demeanor are completely different, and her cultivation is so advanced that it's unbelievable. I really can't think of any other explanations except that she was possessed by a monster."
"Ma'am." Daoist Daoist put down the teacup in his hand, twisted the beads in his hand and asked, "Has anyone in your Yun family died for no reason in the past year?"
"No." Although An Shi didn't understand why Master Daofo suddenly asked this question, he answered honestly.
"Then did any strange murders occur in this imperial city, or did someone suffer from some strange disease?"
An Shi thought for a while and said, "My master is responsible for most of the big and small things in the imperial city, and I haven't heard him mention any murders in the city."
"Then this young lady of your family is not a demon." Taoist Daoist said with certainty: "Since she is not a demon, realgar wine will have no effect on her."
"Then...then..." It was difficult for An Shi to accept this reality for a while, and he hesitated when speaking.
"However." Immediately, Master Daofo spoke again, "From Madam's description, it seems that this young lady is indeed a bit strange. I wonder if Madam can arrange for the poor to meet this young lady."
In the space of the silver bracelet, Yun Ruoyan sat cross-legged, floating in the space with Jiujiu, and the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth was continuously absorbed into Yun Ruoyan's body. Immediately, he used the method of gathering elements to condense the spiritual energy that continuously entered the body into a spiritual mist that gathered in the spiritual sea at the dantian.
There are more and more white spiritual mist in the spiritual sea, and they are getting thicker and thicker. After a long period of condensing, as the concentration and quantity of these spiritual mist increase. Yun Ruoyan finally felt that her spiritual sea was slowly expanding.
As the spiritual sea expanded, Yun Ruoyan's physical fatigue became more and more intense.
"Master, Jiujiu, Master." Jiujiu's voice rang in my ears, "Master, you have been practicing for a whole day and night, if you don't take a rest, your body will not be able to bear it."
Yun Ruoyan finally opened her eyes and stopped practicing.
"Jiujiu, I feel like my spiritual sea has just begun to expand." Yun Ruoyan said wearily but helplessly: "I really don't want to stop like this."
"Because the spiritual power in the master's spiritual sea has been consumed too much, it needs to accumulate enough spiritual power before it can expand further, so it is obviously difficult."
Jiujiu replied: "Expanding the spiritual sea needs to be done step by step. Master's practice this time has already achieved very good results."
Only then did Yun Ruoyan smile in relief.
After finishing her training, Yun Ruoyan asked Shaoyao and Xilan to prepare bath water for her, so that she could relax and have a good sleep.
Yun Ruoyan soaked in the steamy bathtub, closed her eyes, and used her mental power to probe her own spiritual sea. This was her favorite thing to do during this time.
Looking at the spiritual power floating in the spiritual sea, Yun Ruoyan felt very fulfilled and safe.
On the contrary, if the amount and concentration of the spiritual mist in the spiritual sea are not enough, she will show anxiety, and then practice desperately until the spiritual sea is refilled.
After taking a bath, Yun Ruoyan was going to sleep and then began to practice the transformation of the fire element's spiritual power. But as soon as she lay down, she heard girls arguing in the yard.
She frowned when she heard the voice of Hongyu, the eldest girl next to Da Furen.
"Shaoyao, you are so courageous." Hongyu shouted deliberately loudly: "The eldest lady is going to see the second young lady right now, you girl dare to stop her from reporting it."
"Miss is resting, I can't disturb you now." Shao Yao replied without showing any weakness.
"It's broad daylight now, and Second Miss is still asleep."
Hongyu stretched out her hand to light Shaoyao and Xilan beside her, as if she was in charge of the family.
"Second Miss is so lazy, if the old lady and the master find out about it, you servants will be in bad luck. Hurry up and wake up Second Miss!"
This Hongyu used to rely on the prestige of the eldest lady and often came to Tinglanyuan to find pleasure, but now she is still provocative in such a short-sighted manner.
Xi Lan stood aside, holding two small fists, and couldn't help but go up and slap her both ears like she did to vanilla and Qiuhong before.
At this moment, the door opened, and Yun Ruoyan walked out.
