Chapter 1153 The Madman Obsessed with Immortality
Dayue Dynasty, Risheng College in Qiyang County.
At the end of the troubled times, a new dynasty was established, hundreds of industries were waiting for prosperity, and officials were needed to govern everywhere. Therefore, Taizu issued edicts one after another to support liberal arts colleges, respect bachelors, and take exams three times a year to select officials and talents. Therefore, colleges in various places also mushroomed. come out.
The educated people are also gearing up, hoping to show off their talents in the literary examination, so that they can leap over the dragon gate, stand in the court, and honor their ancestors.
In Risheng College, students from all walks of life are chewing words, reading books and devouring classics. The academic style is at its peak and the atmosphere is full of vitality. Even some elderly people are shaking their heads and talking about what Confucius said.
One of them has extensive knowledge and first-class literary talent. He calls himself "Mr. Chunfeng" and is a very famous person in the college. This person knows everything about astronomy and geography, and is also familiar with classics and history. Everyone thinks that after taking the exam three times a year, this person will definitely be able to land on the beach, put on that court uniform, and put on that official hat.
"Brother Chunfeng, let me congratulate you first." A student came to Chunfeng and expressed his congratulations.
Chunfeng asked why he was so happy?
"Now that the new dynasty has just been established, officials are needed to govern everywhere. The emperor issued an edict and took exams three times a year. I am studying hard just for this day. With Brother Chunfeng's talent and learning, I will definitely be able to pass high school and enter the official career. "
What this man said was true. Chunfeng passed the exam, but instead of going to Wangcheng, Kyoto, he rushed to a certain county six months later to serve as the county magistrate.
Some people say that talent is overkill but Chunfeng disagrees.
When you are in charge of a county, there are naturally many things to do, and you will be busy for several months.
One day, something strange happened in the county. Children in the county were missing for several days. People were panicked for a while. The parents of the missing children naturally came to report it to the officials. When Chunfeng knew it, he sent people to investigate, but the next day there was another family. Beat the drum and cry, saying that the youngest son in the family has disappeared after midnight.
After careful questioning, it was found that the door of this household was closed and locked, and the young son was being cared for by his mother in the room. However, after the ugly hour passed, the mother suddenly felt sleepy and fell into a trance. When she woke up again, the young son was gone.
There is an evil vibe about this.
The head of the police squad was extremely busy, but after searching again and again, there was no clue. He sighed all day long and did not dare to go out. Whenever he went out, he would be surrounded by the people and get scolded.
"Could it be that something evil is really causing trouble?" Several detectives were sitting around discussing the case.
"Maybe there really is. I heard that in troubled times, evil spirits will appear." A white-faced man said with a nagging look on his face.
"Shh, don't talk nonsense. Now that the world is stable and a new dynasty has just been established, with Taizu's methods, you will lose your head if you talk like this." Another elderly policeman hurriedly reminded.
"Yes, yes, I made a mistake. What I meant was that in the troubled times of the previous dynasty, Taizu was able to overcome the troubled times, but wasn't this just right? There might be some evil spirits left behind to cause chaos."
"It is possible."
"I don't believe in any evil spirits. Hmm, it must be a man-made disaster." A young policeman took a sip of wine, wiped his mouth, and said that he had found a hound.
"This dog has a very sharp nose and can search for food from thousands of miles away. When the sun goes down, we will set off to see if this hound can help us find the group of thieves."
"This is good!"
"You told me earlier, come on, come on, come on, eat and drink quickly, recharge your batteries, we have to do a big job today, we will definitely catch that crazy thief."
Several of the detectives stopped drinking, lest they get drunk and cause trouble, and they would eat up all the dry food and pickles. When the sky turned dark and there was no one outside, he brought the hound out. First, he took the missing child's old clothes for the hound to taste. The next moment, the hound barked several times and led several police officers out of the county.
Running wildly all the way, we arrived at a mountain col ten miles away from the county seat.
On weekdays, very few people come here. At this moment, the sky has turned completely dark, and the mountain forest looks completely dark. There are occasional wolves howling, which makes the scalp of those who listen to it numb.
"Do you think those missing children were taken away by wild wolves?" a police officer said.
"Impossible, a wild wolf dares to enter the county? Besides, even if it does, why not hurt the adults but only take the children?"
"That makes sense."
"However, there are many wild beasts here. Please be alert and don't be careless."
The hound will lead the hunter forward. There is a creek here. Under the night, the creek is gurgling and the sound of running water is loud.
When they reached the stream, the hound lost its direction.
The stream blocked the smell.
"It's broken, what should we do now?" A detective sighed. They had followed them all the way. It would be really frustrating if they lost the clue here.
At this time, a policeman didn't know what he saw and motioned for everyone to squat down.
"Look, you guys!"
He pointed to the ground.
The ground here is muddy, and people and animals can leave footprints when they walk there.
Look carefully, there are a series of footprints moving along the creek, and these footprints are obviously those of children.
At that moment, all the detectives became energetic and immediately followed the footprints and walked up the creek. After walking for about a hundred steps, they saw the footprints extending to one side and disappearing among the vegetation.
Walking in this direction, you suddenly see a cave.
The entrance of the cave is as high as one person. After entering the cave, I discovered that there is a universe inside. The interior of the cave is huge and intricate. Waves of putrid smell hit his face.
In addition to the stench, there was also a very strong smell of incense candles.
Someone is lighting incense here.
In the darkness, there were indeed some scarlet fire spots. The prisoners' hearts sank, and they used torches to shine forward. The next moment they saw a statue of a god in front of them.
But after seeing it clearly, even the most courageous policeman was so frightened that his legs became weak.
But they saw that the statue was actually pieced together from the corpses of seven or eight children. The heads of the seven or eight children were sewn in the middle, and each one was green and rotting. Some of them had corpse fluid seeping out of their mouths and noses.
Behind the body, a dozen hands were shaped like a peacock spreading its tail.
And every child is holding something similar to a magic weapon in his hand.
Some are holding wooden swords, some are holding talismans and seals, some are holding bronze mirrors, and some are holding jade plates.
"Mom!"
The timid detective was so frightened by this scene that he collapsed to the ground. The bolder one also had his legs trembling at the moment. This scene was really shocking.
The most outrageous thing is that in front of the corpse statue, there is an incense burner, in which the incense has not been burned out.
This is no longer evil.
This is a cult!
"Quick, call someone." The young detective yelled, but the old detective next to him immediately stopped everyone, saying that there was incense here, which meant that the thief had not gone far and would definitely come back.
The detectives immediately hid.
Sure enough, a moment later, there was movement outside the cave, and an old Taoist priest walked in. When they realized something was wrong, the policemen had already swarmed him.
The old Taoist priest was very ferocious, killing one of the agents and seriously injuring another, but after all, he was unable to defeat the four-handed man with his two fists, and was hacked to death by the remaining agents.
The case was so high-profile that even state officials were alerted.
But anyway, things worked out.
As the county magistrate, Chunfeng also received a commendation for this. However, later on, the several police officers died mysteriously one after another. They all died suddenly in their sleep. The government just regarded it as an accident and did not investigate further.
At nightfall, Chunfeng, the county magistrate, sat alone at his desk. The desk was full of official documents, but he had no intention of reviewing them. As soon as he closed his eyes, he fell into a dream.
In the dream, Chunfeng quickly walked out of the house, stepped into the black mist in front of him, and in the blink of an eye arrived at the strange cave in the wild forest.
Chunfeng stepped in, filled with rotten air, and stood two strange statues of gods.
One is made of children's corpses, and the other is made of adult corpses. If you look closely, you can see that these are the corpses of the previous arrests.
An old Taoist man sat cross-legged under the two statues. When he saw Chunfeng coming in, he hurriedly got up and stepped forward to salute.
"I've met Master!"
"Gexu!"
"The disciple is here!"
"Your physical body has been destroyed and contains resentment. It is suitable for cultivating the Immortal Code. Remember to practice hard and not slack off."
"Follow the teacher's instructions!"
After speaking, Chunfeng looked at the two corpse statues.
He walked over and offered incense to worship.
"Two Corpse Immortals, I will refine the Bailing Pill in a few months, and please give me the immortal skills to help me become an immortal."
After hearing Bailing Dan, Ge Xu's expression changed slightly.
Others don't know, but he understands.
The so-called Bailing Pill means human life. One spirit is one life. To refine the Bailing Pill, you need the lives of a hundred people.
Two corpse immortal statues must have at least two Bailing Dan, which is at least two hundred lives.
Ge Xu had killed many people, but hundreds of people's lives and deaths could be determined by talking and laughing like this. He asked himself that he couldn't be so calm and calm.
Looking at the back of Mr. Chunfeng, Ge Xu felt his scalp numb. This master was too terrifying. When they first met, Ge Xu was just a wild Taoist who practiced heretical practices and almost died in a dream. Mr. Chunfeng rescued him and saved his life.
When the immortal way was mentioned during the detailed discussion, Ge Xu said that the immortal way is ethereal and may not be true; but Mr. Chunfeng said that the immortal way is true and can be reached by those with a strong heart. Ge Xu discussed it with him, but he was defeated in just a few words. Respect and become a disciple. A few years passed by, and Mr. Chunfeng encountered countless dangers along the way. He even almost died a few times, but every time he was a blessing in disguise.
After several years of searching, I have visited famous mountains and rivers in various places, and even the masters of the world have visited, but I have never found the path to the great road, nor the method of cultivating immortality.
Mr. Chunfeng was not discouraged. He thought hard for several days and decided to change his mind and explore the strange things, hoping to explore the path to immortality from those horrific things. Obviously, this method is extremely dangerous, but very effective.
Making strange sacrifices is one way, but it can easily attract the attention of the government.
Later, Mr. Chunfeng said, if this is the case, then I am in charge of a place, so I am not representing the government. No matter how I investigate, it will be impossible to find his parents.
This is also true.
Ever since he took charge of a county, as many as 100 to 80 people had died mysteriously in the past few months, and this was obviously just the beginning.
In the following period, a plague broke out in the county, and the number of deaths increased sharply. Often, all the people in a village died of the disease.
The government and county offices also tried their best, and the county magistrate often worked with his own hands to mingle with the people, which earned him an excellent reputation. Little did they know that the plague was caused by this county magistrate who seemed to be close to the people. He really knew people but not their hearts.
After Ge Xu found out, he only sighed that his master was really a master in this world.
Still a lunatic obsessed with immortality.
He didn't know if there were immortals in this world, but he was certain that in the future, his master would be able to reach the top of the immortal path. Because of this persistence, this madness, and this unscrupulousness, the master would definitely succeed.
…
Lin Mo decided that the old man opposite, the elegant scribe in the heavenly palace fantasy, was the legendary Mr. Chunfeng.
Only this kind of existence can suppress the current self.
It's not just Lin Mo's boasting. He searched all over the world and could count the number of people who could collect all the Curse Sequences and most of them have been upgraded on one hand.
What's more, my own curses are the best of all.
He can walk sideways in the third level of dreams, so if anyone in this world can surpass him in terms of strength, it may be Mr. Chunfeng who has been cultivating immortality for hundreds of years.
At this moment, Lin Mo's mind was racing, trying to find a way to solve it, because even if he knew that the person in front of him was Mr. Chunfeng, he still didn't know what methods the other party had.
It’s not clear what its true strength is.
You can only use the stupidest method to test it.
But before that, a few words.
"Mr. Chunfeng, I have admired you for a long time. My brother always talks about you." Lin Mo said.
"But he never mentioned you to me." Mr. Chunfeng opposite finally spoke.
There was no sadness or joy in his voice, and there was no unnecessary expression on his face.
There was no visible change in emotion at all.
Lin Mo seems to have heard a saying that after becoming an immortal, everything will be like ants, just like a person staring at an ant nest, and there will be no psychological fluctuations due to a word from an ant.
Don't know if this is the case now.
"Where's my brother?" Lin Mo knew that it would be difficult to get anything out of the other person's mouth. Then he thought, it would be better to ask directly, which would be more direct.
"My disciple Lin Yuan has dedicated his life to his master and has become a member of the Immortal Class!"
Lin Mo was instantly furious.
He really couldn't bear it.
But he didn't take action.
Perhaps Mr. Chunfeng was deliberately irritating himself. Besides, if a fight broke out, the brother's body would be damaged as well.
Lin Mo smiled at this time.
She said in her heart that she was almost put into trouble by this old fox. After all, she was also an experienced driver, so how could she let the other party lead her by the nose?
Gotta take the initiative.
The best way is to attack its vital points.
What is the key to Mr. Chunfeng?
Lin Mo thinks it is faith.
The other party's belief in seeking immortality.
Lin Mo rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Sir, don't be joking. There are no immortals in this world, so why talk about immortals?"
