When they returned to Flower Creek, the sky was already dark. They were too full from eating sweet potatoes. It seemed that the planned Flower Creek dog meat would have to be postponed.
Ou Jie had already booked the hotel. The three girls booked a three-person room. Chen Weizheng and Xiao Song stayed in a standard room. When they arrived at the hotel, Ou Jie suggested that they go to the flagship store to see how it was doing today. He also asked Chen Weizheng and the others to go to the store and give them some guidance. Xiao Song and Xiao Zhu refused on the spot. Chen Weizheng and Liu Yi were also not very interested. Ruan Lei could not stand Ou Jie's repeated pleas and followed Ou Jie.
Seeing the two leave, Chen Weizheng and Liu Yi looked at each other and smiled.
"Let's go." Chen Weizheng ordered.
"Where are we going?" Liu Yi asked.
"Er Qi Road. The night market is a street full of snacks. Do you think that only you know how to look for food? I will go too. "Chen Weizheng said.
"Okay, I support. Let's go online and see what's good to eat. "The two little ones took out their phones.
They walked all the way to Flower Creek Street and ate a stomach full of six plates of specialties.
"Oh! I'm so full! "The one who spoke was Liu Yi. She had never eaten so much before. She was full.
"Oh! I'm so tired! "The one who spoke was Xiao Zhu. They ate too much. Chen Weizheng was worried that they would get indigestion. He saw a group of four coming back from Er Qi Road not far from the hotel.
The four of them went back to their rooms in pairs. After washing up, it was nine o 'clock sharp. Xiao Song began a day of breathing. As long as there was a condition, he would not stop. Chen Weizheng used his divine sense to check on Xiao Song's condition. He found that Xiao Song's body was more condensed than it was during the summer break. His breathing was also more refined. A thought flashed through his mind. He sent Xiao Song into the Finger Mover and went in as well.
In front of the screen, Chen Weizheng asked, "I want to know if there is a way to open up Xiao Song's brain."
"Yes." The screen showed, "You need to do it."
"What should we do?"
The screen displayed, "In the outside world, there are many scattered spirits. If you can find them and refine them into elixirs like last time, it will be beneficial to him. If there is a spirit with superior intelligence that is willing to refine itself into an elixir, Xiao Song will retain 80% of his intelligence after absorbing it."
"How can I find those spirits?"
"Spirit bodies can be found everywhere. If you don't want to open your Heaven's Eye, there is only one way. Go to a place where spirit bodies gather and send a part of your spiritual sense into the Space. Find a spirit body through the Space, then take it into the Space and deal with it. But this way, you'll only get some ordinary spirits. "
"Wouldn't this be unfair to those spirits? They originally lived freely between heaven and earth, but I destroyed them." Chen Weizheng said.
"You didn't destroy them. On the contrary, you saved most of them." The screen showed, "The spirits that wander between heaven and earth are mostly incomplete. Those that are severely incomplete will affect their main body and prevent them from being reincarnated. Those that are missing a small part will barely be able to participate in the reincarnation, but because of the loss of the spirit body, a large number of people with mental or movement disabilities will be born. If you destroy these incomplete spirits, it will instead free up space for their main body to absorb other scattered spirits to complete themselves and participate in the reincarnation in a complete form. "
"Then how does their world manage this phenomenon?" Chen Weizheng was interested in this.
"The weak are prey to the strong, this is the world's law." The screen showed, "Some of the relatively strong spirits will devour the relatively weak spirits. The strong spirits will become stronger because of this. Once they become strong to a certain extent, they will affect you in the other world. This is why people often say that they see ghosts. These spirits will take the initiative to attack and even devour the souls of living people. At this time, it will attract the attention of the management and will quickly be taken away by the enforcers. "
"In other words, what I'm doing is not evil. Even if it's to the other world, it's not evil." Chen Weizheng asked.
"Yes, the path of good and evil is also relative. Don't be too rigid."
"Hehe!"
Every time he went to the Space to breathe, Xiao Song would feel that the effects were much better. It could be compared to moving a finger in the Space that was ten times longer than outside. The effects were naturally much better.
In the morning, when he woke up naturally, Liu Yi knocked on Chen Weizheng's door. Chen Weizheng opened the door.
"Is Xiao Song up?" Liu Yi asked.
"Cousin-in-law, good morning. I got up early. Only cousin is still sleeping in." Xiao Song answered from inside.
"Are Xiao Zhu and Ruan Lei up?" Chen Weizheng asked.
"Xiao Zhu is up. Sister Lei sent a text at ten o 'clock last night. She said that she went to the KTV with the National League to celebrate. She probably came back too late and didn't want to disturb us. Today, she went to Shui City with Ou Jie to open for business. They went very early. If we go to Shui City, we will go by ourselves. If not, we will arrange it ourselves. Hubby, what should we do? "
"We'll go to the ancient town in the southern suburbs to play. It seems that Ou Jie has already made his move. This time, Ruan Lei shouldn't be able to escape from Ou Jie's palm. "Chen Weizheng said.
"It's not the same. With Sister Lei's scheming, it's possible that Ou Jie can't escape from her palm." Liu Yi said.
Chen Weizheng laughed when he heard it.
Hearing Chen Weizheng's laughter, Xiao Zhu stuck his head out from the next door. He just woke up and his face was red.
There was a mountain in the southern suburbs of Huaxi. The cliff was orange-yellow. It was called Huang Yan. There was an ancient town under the rock. The locals called it Huang Yan Ancient Town.
It was very quiet here. Even if it was Golden Week, there weren't many people. It was only slightly more than usual. The ancient road paved with bluestones passed through the green fields. Occasionally, farmers carrying poles or shepherds walking by.
In late autumn, the sun was shining, the morning breeze was blowing, and the air was fresh. Standing at the entrance of the ancient street and looking into the distance, the small town surrounded by clouds and mist really made people feel relaxed and happy.
There used to be a gathering of merchants here. A large number of green-tiled wooden houses, stone paving roads, and ancient streets and alleys from the Ming and Qing dynasties have been preserved. The ancient town was surrounded by city walls. It was divided into an inner city and an outer city. Both were built with square stones. There were watchtowers, battlements, and turrets on the city walls. The imposing Dingguang Gate tower, the stone paving ancient road, and the ancient archway complemented each other.
First, they went to visit the residence of the first Zhuangyuan, Zhuangyuan Zhao.
Zhuangyuan Zhao's old residence was located in the small town's North Street. In front of the gate, there was a couplet, "The Zither and Crane Record, The Analects of Confucius passed down through the family."
Before Zhuangyuan Zhao became the Zhuangyuan Zhao, there had never been anyone who became the Zhuangyuan Zhao in the Imperial Examination. It was no wonder that the locals sang his praises. The layout of the house and courtyard, as well as the exquisite carvings on the doors and windows, still maintained the style of a hundred years old. The house was mainly made of wood. It had an ancient charm, tranquility, and a scholarly style. Although many of them had not been maintained for a long time, most of them still had their charm and were worth looking at.
Chen Weizheng said, "I have something to do here. It will probably take more than an hour. Xiao Song, bring Xiao Zhu and cousin-in-law here to look around. This is the residence of the Zhuangyuan Zhao. You scholars should be more respectful. After you finish looking around, go to town and find a restaurant to wait for me. It's best if it's a restaurant that serves Zhuangyuan Pig Trotters. "
Xiao Song nodded. Liu Yi said, "Call us when you're done."
"Okay." Chen Weizheng left. He wanted to find a place for religion. The ancient town had all four religions. Moreover, it was a 600 year old ancient battlefield. It was the place he wanted to find.
Every religion had their own way of communicating with the other world. At the same time, they also provided a relatively safe place for spirits to live. It was just that the abilities of the clergy of each religion were different. Their ability to communicate with the other world was also different.
Compared to other religions, Taoism, which originated from China, had a certain advantage in this aspect. Taoism worshipped nature and advocated harmony and equality between humans and nature. Whether it was humans, ghosts, or gods, they all had a corresponding position. It was just that its teachings were too profound and could not be understood by the masses.
Chen Weizheng walked into the Taoist temple and strictly followed the requirement of his left foot first. He walked three steps to the front of the praying mat and stood with his two feet apart. He cupped his hands, bent his waist, and saluted. He was not a believer and did not need to kneel. However, he still had to pay attention to the necessary etiquette. After saluting, his right foot retreated first. He did not leave the main hall but stood at the side of the main hall. He separated a bit of his divine sense and entered the Motion-Moving Finger. At first glance, there was a black flag outside the main hall. It was densely packed with spirits. He raised his hand and the black flag and the spirits on it were all sucked into the Motion-Moving Finger.
Everything went smoothly. Chen Weizheng walked to the front of the praying mat. His right hand naturally made an arc to the right and then down. At the same time, he bowed, bent his knees, and squatted down. His right palm was on the praying mat while his left palm made an arc to the left and then crossed the back of his right hand. His left thumb was inserted into his right palm. He leaned his knees against the outside of the praying mat and then slowly moved his head close to the Hegu acupoint on both hands three times. He released his left hand and returned it to his middle dantian. He supported the praying mat with his right hand and slowly got up. He gathered his Qi in his middle dantian and cupped his hands. He repeated it three times. It was called the three kneels and nine kowtows. This was the highest etiquette of Taoism.
The master playing the chime had not seen such a strict etiquette for a long time. He also played the small chime in his hand and sang a Taoist chant rhythm.
Chen Weizheng cupped his hands and thanked the master playing the chime before leaving the hall.
"Mister, please wait." A clear voice came from behind. He turned around and saw the master playing the chime. He wore hemp clothes, cloth shoes, and white cloth binding his legs. His face was rosy and his expression was kind.
"How can I help you?" Chen Weizheng hurriedly cupped his hands and asked.
"I don't dare to help you." The Taoist said, "Mister, are you a spiritual person?"
Chen Weizheng smiled and did not admit or deny it.
"This small temple has experienced a long time. Because of the misplaced love of the believers, the temple is flourishing. It's just that there are too many spiritual bodies, which disturbs the peace. This time, I thank Mister for your help. I am extremely grateful. I would like to present to you a book specially recorded by the ancestors of this temple."
Chen Weizheng knew that this was a Taoist with a brain. He had a certain level of cultivation. When he saw that he had taken away the spiritual bodies, he wanted to leave something behind for him. He was afraid that he would not be a match for him. Hence, he gave him a book. Chen Weizheng took the book and took out a stack of ten thousand dollars worth of RMB. He handed it over to the Daoist and said, "Many thanks to the Daoist for gifting me this book. Please accept this fee."
The Taoist accepted it with a smile. The amount of spiritual bodies had exceeded his expectations.
Chen Weizheng walked towards a secluded area. Unknowingly, he came to a small alley. He was attracted by the green stone road and the green stone walls. It was as if he had entered an ancient time tunnel. Time seemed to have stopped in this dark and secluded alleyway. A kind of nostalgic feeling arose spontaneously in his heart.
Seeing that there was no one around, he flashed into the space. The spiritual bodies on the banner began to disperse and wander around the space. A powerful spiritual body saw him and floated over. It let out an ethereal voice. Listening carefully, it was not a voice, but a silent expression of consciousness. "Who are you? Why have you brought me here? "
"I am the owner of this place. Taking in spiritual bodies has its own needs. Who are you? It is not easy to accumulate spiritual power. "The last sentence was obviously a threat.
"Hahahaha, a mere mortal dares to take in spiritual bodies. You are giving it to me. It would be impolite to refuse. I will kindly accept it. "It turned into a sword of qi and flew towards Chen Weizheng.
Chen Weizheng had also gone through cultivation in recent years, and was no longer at the same level as before. His left hand pinched the spirit cultivator, and his right hand released a divine sense that covered the spirit cultivator like a mountain. The spirit cultivator immediately let out a miserable cry. In less than five minutes, the spiritual body turned into a sword of qi. It gradually solidified and became smaller. Finally, it turned into a thumb-sized green spiritual bead.
