Three years ago, the East China Sea Grand Competition ended with the emergence of Qinglong, which can be said to have drawn a successful conclusion.
After that, all countries were recuperating and entered a long period of calm. Modern society has quickly completed its transformation, opportunities are everywhere, food production has increased, commerce has flourished, prices have stabilized, and ordinary people have some spare cash.
Between monks and monks, between sects and sects, and between countries, small disputes are inevitable, but overall, they all present a rare scene of peace and happiness.
This is not only the popularization of concepts, but also in real life, practice items are becoming more and more integrated into social groups. For example, Liu'an Lingcha, because of its large production volume, has a mild and not strong effect, and anyone with a certain amount of wealth and connections can drink it.
Another example is the refining of alienated organisms to make those medicines, which have come out continuously in recent years, and there are more and more cases of curing cancer, AIDS, leukemia, etc.
The population of the world has been greatly reduced, but the life expectancy and physical fitness of individuals are increasing invisibly. Even after several generations of genetic improvement, those intractable diseases may become minor ailments like colds and fevers...
Nowadays, congenital monks are no longer a rarity, and there are hundreds of thousands of acquired monks. Even human immortals, Taoist Priest Shi Yunlai and Priest Zhang Shouyang of the Taoist Academy, have been promoted one after another by virtue of their aptitude and comprehension not inferior to Lu Yuanqing. Chao Kongtu, Bai Yunsheng, Zhong Lingyu and others were stuck at the pass and followed closely behind.
So there are already seven human immortals on the bright side, Fenghuang Mountain accounts for four, and Taoist Temple accounts for three. Magnolia Pearl hides behind the scenes, claiming to be the inheritance of the black mother, setting up the black water gate, it can be regarded as going ashore for nothing.
These seven immortals can be called the apex existence of the Xia Kingdom, and they are revered by thousands of monks.
Especially Gu Yu, who is simply an idol of the whole people. There are even many rumors that this Gu Patriarch who is number one in the world has surrendered Qinglong and successfully refined a Dao Realm Dragon Kun!
The so-called start with a kun, the leveling up depends on swallowing... Incredible!
Besides, this is the place where Longqiu discovered the crystallization of the five elements during her tour, so she set up a magic circle and used it as a special Yangran mountain range.
Rampant is also a kind of wandering ghost. It is gradually transformed into Rampant by the accumulation of five elements. It has a manic temperament and strong combat effectiveness. It is divided into four categories: five rampant soldiers and horses, five manifested spirit officials, five-pass soldiers and horses, and wandering soldiers and horses, and they can be trained and upgraded.
Almost all of the six hundred and one disciples of Phoenix Mountain practice the water method, and the number needed is very large. It is far from enough to rely on those naturally formed, so Long Qiu built a stronghold here, responsible for capturing wild ghosts and wandering souls, and then throwing them into the mountains to increase the base.
The basic configuration is that there are three inborns and forty in the acquired, led by a senior disciple. You Yu is in the second term, and his term has expired, and An Susu is here to replace him.
"Life here is fairly easy, there are not many constraints, and there is only one iron rule. We will never catch newborn wandering souls, which will destroy the law of operation. We only catch ghosts that have not fallen into reincarnation after seven days, lost their consciousness, and wandered in the world. Lone ghost."
You Yu took An Susu for a walk in the mountains, and explained the precautions by the way, "Especially the ghosts and ghosts, the more the better, the rampant soldiers they evolve into are generally half a level higher, and the quality is higher... Oh, we After a rough division, rampant soldiers are divided into low, middle, and high grades, and the top is rampant generals. There are also some special beasts, which can be transformed into rampant tigers, rampant wolves, etc. by chance. I just made statistics a few days ago , there are about 100,000 wandering souls in this small mountain range. It's a pity that the work is not in place, the qualifications are not too high, and the growth is limited. As far as I know, there is only one rampant general in the uncle's place, and it is a red-clothed ghost given by the real person transformed."
"Brother has guarded the house for two years. You have worked hard and made great achievements. Don't be self-effacing. Hey, by the way, how many have you collected now, can you let me see?" An Susu laughed.
"sure."
With that said, the two went down the mountain and arrived at an open space. You Yu has been cultivating thunder techniques for six years, and he has cultivated the three thunder qi of gold, water and wood, and his strength is also top-notch in Phoenix Mountain.
He performed the Five Elements Technique, and drew out a trace of water vapor, which condensed into a drop of water.
The water droplets trembled and gradually dissipated in the air. With a gust of scarlet wind blowing, ten armored soldiers appeared in the field. He is not tall, and his body outline is clear, but his face is rather vague, only two red beads that are regarded as eyes can be seen.
As soon as they appeared, they looked to An Susu in unison, and the red beads were full of violent and ferocious intent. If You Yu hadn't been there, it seemed that she would have been torn to pieces.
"It's really interesting!"
An Susu has been in the field for nearly ten years, and she is no longer that weak little lolita. She nodded slightly, and her evaluation was only interesting.
After about half a day, the handover between the two was completed, and You Yu was going back to the mountain to return to his life.
When parting, An Susu suddenly thought of something, said: "Senior brother, when I came to Linhuan Teahouse, I heard that Wang Yu's family in Lu'an, dozens of people, were killed last night, do you understand?"
"Oh? I've been in the mountains recently, but I don't know."
You Yu was also surprised when he heard it. After all, there was a sudden tragedy in a peaceful and prosperous world, and nothing seemed right, so he said, "I just happened to go to Lu'an to buy some tea, so I just checked it out."
"Then you'd better report it first, otherwise you will be punished if you miss the deadline for returning to the mountain."
"Hehe, thanks for the reminder."
You Yu cupped his hands and drifted away. An Susu looked at his back, pursed her lips, and there was a hint of emotion hidden in the plainness.
…
Anhui Province is a major tea-producing province, and three of the top ten famous teas in the Xia Kingdom are located in Anhui Province: Lu'an Guapian, Huangshan Maofeng, and Qimen Black Tea.
Lu'an Guapian was called Luzhou Lu'an Tea in Tang Dynasty, it was called Lu'an Guapian in Ming Dynasty, and it was called court tribute tea in Qing Dynasty. Modern times are different from ancient times, and everything can be mass-produced. The tea gardens in Lu'an produce tens of thousands of tons of tea every year, and Er Da Wang is the largest of them.
Outside the city, leisure villa.
This place is very famous in the local area. The owner is Wang Yu, one of the two great kings. It occupies a large area and is magnificent.
And just two days ago, Wang Yu celebrated his birthday and held a family banquet in the villa. As a result, in the early morning of the next day, dozens of people died, which became the most shocking news in recent days.
It was late at night, the gate was sealed and cordoned off, and there was a police car on duty outside. Inside the door is a huge courtyard, passing through the courtyard is the villa building, and there is a small courtyard behind the building.
There was no moon in the sky, and it was pitch black. The flowers and plants in the courtyard swayed and rustled with the wind, adding a bit of eerie depth.
Suddenly, the air fluctuated, as if a figure appeared out of thin air, it was You Yu.
He just came over from the mortuary, and it was true to the rumors that he was indeed poisoned to death. The toxicity is strange, the appearance is intact, the blood, muscles, and nerves are also normal, except that the heart has shrunk strangely, only one third of the size of an ordinary person, and the surface is covered with fleshy bumps.
According to the joint investigation by the Taoists of Taisu Palace and the Special Bureau, there are probably two targets:
One is Wang Tong, who is also the second great king. The two families have had a long-standing enmity and often fight. The other one is a monk from the Xiaoxiang sect. She had an affair with Wang's disciples and was severely beaten. Later, she joined the master's sect and learned Gu skills.
Of course, You Yu didn't care who did it. He just felt that the tragic event of exterminating the family was too conspicuous, and it should not be for personal grievances, there must be greater intentions.
"rustle!"
He walked through the courtyard with lush flowers and plants, first walked around the building, and then came to the backyard.
The backyard is a row of houses, with big trees planted beside the wall, the branches and leaves are shady. He released his consciousness, searched inch by inch, then suddenly paused, and walked quickly to the east corner.
He pushed aside the grass, and picked up a nearly transparent fragment that looked like some kind of insect carapace, with extremely weak fluctuations emitting from it.
"Is this molting?"
You Yu didn't know why, so he had to put it in the Qiankun bag, and after confirming that there was no more discovery, he found out the villa lightly.
The case was naturally under the jurisdiction of Anhui Province. He had no intention of becoming a famous detective Conan. After leaving, he went all the way north, intending to return to the mountains. He has been guarding outside for two years, and he is quite eager to return home. He misses the elders of the same family, and his journey is much faster.
This walk took a full day, went straight out of Anhui Province, and stopped to rest at the junction of Jiangnan and Lunan.
The moon was bright and the stars were thin, a bonfire was lit, and a fat pheasant was roasting.
You Yu sat by the fire, seemingly in a daze, as if thinking, and from time to time, a pretty face flashed in front of his eyes.
"Oh, the little girl has grown up and is quite beautiful."
He smiled, recalling how young and immature he was when he first started, and the little girl who always followed behind him.
It's been almost ten years in the blink of an eye...
The fire is very hot, the skin of the chicken has become golden, and the fat drips down, making a slight crackling sound.
You Yu tore off a piece and chewed it one after another. In another three or four months, it was the annual puja. This year it's my turn to come out and discuss the law with my colleagues in the rivers and lakes.
It is impossible not to be nervous. To discuss this thing, one must have sufficient theoretical inductive ability, and one must be quick-spoken, and he is just one who doesn't like to talk.
"Last year Zeng Ke'er made a big splash, but this year I screwed up, and I don't know how she laughed at me, eh... huh?"
He didn't sigh halfway, and suddenly raised his head, and in the next second, he was chasing westward like a shooting star chasing the moon.
That's right, just now he sensed a trace of breath, which was almost the same as the fluctuation of shedding skin!
Did they meet by chance, or was the other party following him
He didn't have time to think about it, and used the land volley, without touching the ground, turned into a wisp of green smoke, and chased after the black figure in front of him.
After chasing for a while, he suddenly raised his hand, and a black water thunder split out, scattered into thousands of bundles in the air, forming a big net, covering his head.
The black shadow was unavoidable, trembling crazily and making a buzzing sound. Immediately afterwards, another thing sprang out from the nearby woods, grabbed the black shadow, and at the same time flashed through the big net, turned and disappeared into the forest.
"How dare!"
You Yu was shocked and angry, and quickened his pace, but who would have thought that the speed of that thing was also very fast, and it was not restricted by the terrain of the mountains and forests at all.
boom! boom! boom!
Several thunderbolts struck down in a row, and the thing dodged left and right, still galloping amidst the indiscriminate bombardment.
It was very small in size, like a child, or an odd dwarf. I was running on two legs, but as I was running, I suddenly fell on the ground with my upper body, supported by my hands, and my torso was bent...
In an instant, both hands and feet turned into four-legged ground, and behind the buttocks, there was a tail raised up, and it rushed far away, unable to catch up.
"this… "
You Yu stopped in a daze, dumbfounded, is this a human or a beast
