In the upper reaches of the river, Qing Hong retracted his gaze and his anger turned into contemplation, "The power of the immortals spreading from the village, could it be junior sister? She really can't be underestimated when she uses all her mana. She has become an immortal at least three times? "
According to Qing Hong's understanding, Li Jingxun cultivated the Three Corpses Dao to the Human Immortal Realm and killed the Three Corpses Bug was considered an immortal. The Profound Female Dao Golden Core not long ago was considered an immortal. As for the Daode Buddhism, Li Jingxun estimated that she had also become an immortal once.
"But the Nine Refinements Immortal Dao is not that easy. The further she goes, the heavier her knowledge barrier will be. In order to suppress her immortal power, she had to use an even stronger seal, and the difficulty of breaking this seal would increase accordingly. Only then can the Nine Refinements Immortal be completed. "
Every time one became an immortal, there would be the power of the Dao fruit to cleanse one's body and transform into an immortal body. But Li Jingxun had to suppress this power and try her best to ensure that she was in the state of a mortal body. She compressed and sealed the Dao fruit baptism and waited for the nine times to erupt and achieve the Ground Fairies Karma Rank in one go.
Every time she suppressed the power of the Dao fruit, she would need double the power of the seal. And to break this increased power of the seal, she would need an even stronger power of becoming an immortal.
In this cycle, Li Jingxun's path to becoming an immortal became more and more difficult.
But Ji Feichen had to admit that after nine repetitions, Li Jingxun would definitely be able to compete with them.
At this moment, a commotion came from the river and interrupted Qing Hong's contemplation.
An old man stood in front of the gold diggers and refused to let them go into the river to cut off the river.
"You can't go down! The river can't be cut off! "
"Old man, it's not like we won't pay. When we find gold later, you will also benefit from it. These few days, you have been here every day. Even if you are not annoyed, we are! Let's go, let's go! "
As he spoke, he pushed the old man away.
The old man's crutch fell to the ground and a lot of blood came out of his forehead, but he still stood in front of the crowd.
"It has nothing to do with money. This water is the lifeline of our Chuanyang Town. Cutting off the water and intercepting the flow, this is destroying the foundation of our Sunflower Creek Town! "
"Tsk, why is this old man so annoying? Hey, I say, your people are causing trouble here. Are you going to do something about it? "
Yang Chuanzhen had already negotiated with these gold diggers. After they cut off the river and dug out the gold, they would give a cut to the people of Chuanyang Town.
Hearing this, a few burly men hurried over. "Uncle Zhao, why are you doing this? When the time comes, can't you just take a little more? "
The old man stomped his feet in anger. "You juniors don't understand! This river is our lifeline, we can't touch it! Moving would bring disaster! This is the ancestral teaching! "
"Tsk, what disaster? Besides, now that we have money, why don't we use it to get rid of the disaster? " Everyone giggled and said, "Times have changed, and those ancestral teachings have long since become old seeds and rotten grains. It's simply not the right time to bring them out now. Uncle, you'd better go back and rest! "
Everyone disagreed, and in the end, the old man fell under the crowd's shoving. Seeing this, a townspeople shouted, "Little Lian, where the hell are you? Your grandfather is in trouble, hurry up and take him away!"
Not long after, a young girl hurriedly ran over and helped her grandfather to his feet.
"Grandfather, why are you out again? You haven't recovered from your previous injuries, why are you still here? " The young girl glanced at everyone and whispered to Master Zhao, "Good and evil will be repaid by the heavens. Why are you in such a hurry?" She carefully supported Master Zhao and gradually left.
Qing Hong squinted his eyes and looked at the old man's back. "This person is my fated person, the one who is about to become a god here?"
The old man looked excited. He was the temple attendant who took care of the River God Temple, but this river had long lost its Spiritual Aura and Celestial Light, and there was no god in charge. Otherwise, those people from the Demonic Path would not dare to be so presumptuous and directly use the river to do something.
"Lian 'er, don't stop me! These people will definitely be punished by the heavens for doing this! "
"Yes, yes, yes, but if anything happens to you, even the heavens won't be able to see it." The young girl waved her hand, and a dim light shot into the old man's body, stabilizing his emotions. Then, she took the old man home.
"This girl has traces of celestial spells on her?" Qing Hong's eyelids twitched, and he followed behind her to the nearby River God Temple.
Because River God had passed away a long time ago, the River God Temple was already in ruins.
Standing at the entrance of the temple, Qing Hong shook his head. "This temple has no incense and Celestial Light protection. Even evil spirits can come and go as they please."
He followed the two into the River God Temple and saw the two applying medicine in the side room.
"Who?" Seeing Qing Hong, the young girl looked vigilant and stood in front of Master Zhao. "Who are you?" She opened her fingers and gathered the faint water vapor around her.
"A passing immortal." Qing Hong smiled and flicked his finger, shattering the water vapor that the young girl gathered. Then, Qing Hong poured out a golden pill and said, "Give this to your grandfather, and he will be healed immediately."
"How do I know if it's poisonous or not?"
"Girl, wait —" The old man patted his granddaughter's shoulder, then cupped his hands and said to Qing Hong, "Mister, you said you're an immortal?"
"Of course." Qing Hong released his protective immortal light, and the five-colored light condensed into a Dao Fruit light wheel, slowly spinning behind his head. Around him, wisps of water vapor slowly surged, and he looked like an immortal.
"This should be the legendary Dao Fruit light wheel?" The old man's eyes flickered, and he said to his granddaughter, "Girl, give me the pill. Here, if he wanted to harm us, why would he use such a method? Plus, if he's really a Daoist master, then our River Yang Town can be saved. "
The young girl was skeptical, but she slowly walked over and brought the pill back with both hands.
The old man took the pill mixed with tea, and immediately, all the external injuries on his body disappeared, and he became lively again.
Seeing that her grandfather's injuries were healed, the young girl's attitude towards Qing Hong took a 180-degree turn. She immediately poured tea and fruits for him, "Senior immortal, thank you for your help."
Qing Hong nodded slightly, then picked up a pear and asked the old man, "How long have you been guarding this River God Temple?"
"It's said that this temple was here when River Yang Town was built. Since then, my family has been guarding this temple. I'm already very old this year, and I've been guarding this temple for at least 75 years. "
"That's quite a long time." Qing Hong smiled, waved his folding fan, and said, "How long has River Earl fallen here?"
The old man frowned, as if he was thinking about how to answer.
"I can see that you have a faint light of River Earl on your body, so River Earl was probably still alive when you were a child? This is his blessing to you, right? And there's a divine power in your blood. How many generations of descendants of River Earl are you? "
The old man was stunned, then he looked up and down at Qing Hong.
"Don't worry, if I wanted to harm you, I wouldn't do it now."
"Since you've already guessed it, then I don't have to hide it. Yes, the River God worshiped here was originally my ancestor. It's said that he was a guest of the Xuanmen Sect, just like the immortals. But later, he fell because of something. Before he died, he left us a message to build a River Earl Temple here to worship him. "
"So, he turned into the path of gods, and endured for so many years with the help of the incense. But in the end, his injuries relapsed, and he had no choice but to reincarnate? "Qing Hong showed a look of understanding. After a human immortal was heavily injured, it was normal to choose to turn into a ghost immortal or a deity.
The old man's expression was sad, "Yes. When I was 30, my ancestor entered the reincarnation. "
Qing Hong closed his eyes, and immediately sent a message to Peng Shaoyu, "Are you there? When you're free, help me check the whereabouts of River Earl in River Yang Town. See if he's reincarnated or something else. Also, help me check the situation when River Yang Town was founded. "
The netherworld accommodated the dead, and many secrets that the living kept for their whole lives were public in the netherworld.
In the world of the living, River Yang Town had been through a few hundred years, and its original history could no longer be verified. But in the netherworld, it was easy to investigate all this.
Unfortunately, Peng Shaoyu was a little busy at the moment. He was pretending to be the "Marquis of Beiyin" to discuss important matters with the ghost marquises in the north, and had no time to care about Ji Feichen's message. He could only ask a few ghost officials under him to help investigate. But those ghost officials were slow, and could not produce any useful information in a short time.
Seeing this scene, Qing Hong thought to himself, "Forget it, I won't look for him. If I wait for him to finish his work and free his hands to help me, I'd better solve it myself. "
So, Qing Hong said to the old man, "I see that the layout of River Yang Town is mysterious, it must be the work of our ancestor River Earl?"
"Yes, it was the refugees that our ancestor gathered and built River Yang Town here. But not long after, he turned into the path of gods. "
"Turning into the path of gods means that his initial injuries came from his body. Later, incense couldn't prolong his life because the injuries came from his soul? Could it be two groups of people? "
"Did Lord River Earl say anything when he died?"
The old man nodded, "Back then, I served by our ancestor's side, and I didn't dare to forget a single word of his last words. He said a total of two sentences. One was' The Five Spirit Tiger Bane Saber is indeed powerful, worthy of being the true inheritance of Thousand Feet City. ' The other was' It's a pity that I didn't practice this immortal city blueprint well, or else why would I be afraid of a mere Thousand Feet City? '"
Five Spirit Tiger Bane Saber? Thousand Feet City?
Qing Hong's heart jumped, could this be related to the Huangfu family?
But now that the Huangfu family was all dead, Qing Hong couldn't find anyone to confront.
But immortal city blueprint? Qing Hong hurriedly asked, "What is that?"
"This … I don't know either." The old man immediately shook his head, but Qing Hong could see that he seemed to be hiding something.
"Speaking of which, the technique that your granddaughter cultivates should be the Xuan technique that Lord River Earl cultivated back then?"
"Yes, [Golden White Water Scripture] is my family's secret scripture. Unfortunately, this girl doesn't have much talent and couldn't learn it. "
"[Golden White Water Scripture]?" Qing Hong understood and said, "This thing needs the pattern of metal and water coexisting to enter the path. Although it's a technique that directly leads to human immortality, it's too hard to understand for beginners. "Qing Hong casually gave some pointers to the young girl, then stood up," Alright — that's it. I still have things to do, so I'll leave first. I'll be staying in the inn in the town these few days. If you want to learn, you can come to the inn to find me. "
Qing Hong left the River God Temple, and saw people cutting off the river and searching for gold in the riverbed. He couldn't help but walk deeper into the river without anyone noticing.
He grabbed with his hand, and a few gold bars and broken axes flew in front of him, "Gold bars, not gold mines?" Qing Hong pondered, "Sure enough, someone hid it here?"
He looked carefully again, and found a blood-stained flag with a big "Li" character on it.
"Li Family Army? Was this gold left by a man with the surname Li? "
Suddenly, the gold bars in his hand emitted bursts of heat, as if a few imperceptible strands of devil aura wanted to invade his palm.
"Is there a problem?" Seeing that he couldn't find anything else, Qing Hong packed the gold and the flag, and went back to the town to find Li Jingxun.
…
Li Jingxun met up with the Beggar Sect, and under the guidance of the Beggar Sect members, he found the first person to find gold in Chuanyang Town.
"Fairy, this person is called Zhang Laizi, and he was originally a vagrant in the town. Who knows what kind of luck he had to find gold? Pooh! Look at my mouth! " Don't talk nonsense in front of Fairy. "
The person who spoke was surnamed Bai, and he was the branch leader of the Beggar Sect here.
"It's nothing, I don't care about that." Li Jingxun dealt with many people in the Beggar Sect, and she didn't discriminate against them at all. She smiled and said, "A man of character is better than those treacherous villains who say one thing in front of others and another behind others' backs."
Following a few people from the Beggar Sect, Li Jingxun arrived at Zhang Laizi's door.
"Zhang Laizi, where are you?!" A beggar shouted, "Did you forget your brothers now that you have money?"
But no matter how he shouted, no one responded in the room.
Li Jingxun's eyes moved slightly, and he said softly, "No need to shout, there's no one inside."
"No one, that's impossible. I saw him go home with my own eyes, and then I deliberately sent people to guard him. You two saw him leave again? "Branch Leader Bai called over two little beggars who were squatting nearby and asked," Do you know where he went? "
"No, he hasn't left since he came back. Is he sleeping? "
"No." Li Jingxun faintly looked at the closed door. "When I said there's no one inside, I meant there's no living person inside."
"No living person?" Everyone's expression changed, and they immediately rushed in.
A man with a head full of scabies was lying on the ground, his face twisted, and his surroundings were a mess. Obviously, he had been through a fierce struggle.
Looking at his dead face, Li Jingxun frowned. "He died from swallowing gold?"
"Swallowing gold? Why would this guy swallow gold? "The Beggar Sect disciples next to him looked confused, as if they hadn't come back to their senses yet.
Zhang Laizi had just received a huge sum of money, why would he seek death?
Suddenly, Li Jingxun looked up at the sky and asked, "What do you think, Senior Martial Brother?"
"He indeed died from swallowing gold, and he swallowed the gold obediently." Qing Hong was riding the wind, sitting cross-legged on the clouds and meditating.
"Why did he eat the gold after he got it? Did he find out that we were investigating? Or is it because he was the first person to fish for gold, and there's something else going on? "
"I went to the river to investigate. Although the gold is gold, it's attached with blood aura and a special kind of inner demon power. "Qing Hong jumped down from the clouds and calmly walked to Li Jingxun's side.
The two immortals stood side by side, looking like pearls and jade.
"So, it's related to the Sky Heart Demon Sect?"
"That's right." Qing Hong threw a gold bar he found to Li Jingxun. "Look. Gold is attached with the inner demon power, and it can bewitch the mind. People who dig for gold will eventually swallow the gold they pass through. Because this person was the first to find gold, he was the first to die. Next, I'm afraid there will be more people in the town who will be killed one by one. "
Staring at the corpse on the ground, Qing Hong muttered to himself, "They've already started killing, we don't have time."
