Great Sui Guoshi

Chapter 376 A Mysterious Turtle Out of the Sea

The path at the foot of the mountain was seldom visited by people, and the hot sun shone through the forest. Three women in different costumes walked over there through a messy mountain path.

The old monk in Zhenhai opened his eyes, saw some dry food put in front of him by passers-by, stretched out his hand to pick it up and put it into the monk's sleeve, propped up his still cold legs, and made a Dharma seal on his chest.

"In the wilderness, sparsely populated, the three girls came by coincidence!"

"Hey, Master, isn't he waiting for us here?"

Another woman in a black-and-patterned dress raised her eyes and showed a coquettish look: "I can't think of a monk, but also a flowery mind."

In the middle, a woman in a red dress threw off her long sleeves and nodded slightly.

"Old monk, to make a long story short, how about going to the same place with the three of my servants?"

On the other side of the road where the sun shines, the old monk flicked his sleeves, spread his other hand, and the golden bowl on the ground flew to his palm. Looking at the three women, his voice suddenly stern.

"Three people? Three monstrous evildoers who dare to speak rudely in front of this poor monk!"

Throwing the golden bowl, it flew into the air.

"Show your true form!"

The Buddha's light flickered, and a thin ray of light shot towards the opposite side. The moment of contact, the demonic aura exploded, and the red, purple, and colorful smoke and dust revealed a human figure with red hair and a fox tail. On the other side, a woman in a colorful dress turned into a lower body. It looks like a spider's belly, with its eight legs stretching out its teeth and claws, but in the middle, the red dress remains, and the skirt is gently stroked.

"What kind of evildoer are you?" The old monk frowned slightly.

The woman with red lips covered her chuckle with long sleeves, her eyes revealed a soul-stirring look.

"Old monk, this is the original form of the slave family, or, old monk, do you want to see more different scenery?"

Her charming eyes narrowed suddenly, revealing a cold light, and the corners of her mouth curled up in a light smile, lightly.

"Go!"

Long-sleeved dancing, a red damask like a red snake preying on the old monk, swaying and shooting at the old monk, wrapping him around him in a circle, in an instant, the spider spirits and fox demons on both sides of the woman moved in response, filled with demonic aura, Headed by the woman in the middle, they followed the red silk and rushed towards the monk.

"Drink-"

The old Zhenhai monk clasped his palms together, shook his head outward, his robe swelled, and the red silk was torn apart with several hisses, and the fragments fluttered like butterflies. Grasping one of the spider spirit's long legs, the old monk twisted his thin body, shouted violently, lifted the opponent above his head, and slammed him to the ground on the other side.

"World Honored One, Ksitigarbha, Prajna Makong!"

Looking sideways at the fox demon rushing forward, forming a seal with his fingers, he yelled, "Cassock!"

The Buddha light of the cassock flew away from the body, spread out with a bang, wrapped the red fox, and aroused bursts of evil spirit to seep out.

"Ugh...Ahh...the king save me! Uh..."

"Old monk, look here!"

The woman in red suddenly turned her long sleeves, and there was an extra scroll in her hand. When the old monk looked over, he suddenly threw it to the sky, and unfolded it up and down to reveal a blank scroll.

"Zhenhai!"

Suddenly, a human voice was like a twilight bell ringing, echoing in the mountains, and an arm suddenly stretched out from the blank paper, stretching more than ten feet like an infinite extension.

"Dawei Tianlong!"

The old monk's beard was furious, and his answer was to greet the protruding arm with a palm. At the moment of contact, the arm passed through the palm he pushed away like nothingness, and strangled Zhenhai's neck. The next moment, he shrank suddenly, stiffly. Drag the old monk to the sky, and sink into the painting scroll together with the golden bowl suspended in the sky and the posture wrapped around the fox demon.

In mid-air, the Dharma light flickered, and the scroll shrank up and down, and fell back into the hands of the woman in red. She unfolded the scroll and took a look. On it, the old monk was thin and bearded, holding a golden bowl, and wearing cassock like a glaring Vajra.

Then he tightened the scroll and handed it to the approaching red fox.

"Matchmaker, take this scroll back to Wuse Village and give it to Master Wuyuan."

"Yes."

The matchmaker was one of the two fox monsters in the ruined temple outside Qixia Mountain back then, and she knew Lu Liangsheng, but she did a lot of evil back then, and the demon pills she cultivated were still in the scholar's body now.

"Your Majesty, are you not going back?"

The red fox took the scroll carefully, and when she asked this sentence, she was slapped with a slap in answer.

Snapped!

The crisp sound showed five clear red marks on the red fox's face, and his body was crooked and almost fell.

"You don't need to ask me what I want to do, just take the things back."

The woman in red was Hua Hongyi. She looked at the mountains in the distance, closed her eyes slightly, and took a deep breath.

"Since you're here, you should take a look at Qixia Mountain anyway."

After finishing speaking, she called Zhu Erniang, who was thrown, and walked slowly along the mountain road. In the bright sky, her figure was swaying, her long sleeves were fluttering, and she was already tens of feet away in the blink of an eye.

......

Slightly slanting sunlight goes south along the stretch of mountains. At the foot of Qixia Mountain, there is a small courtyard in the village.

After lunch, the family sat under the eaves and listened to Lu Liangsheng talk about being taken away. The scholar considered his parents and would not say anything too dangerous, so he only robbed the monk because he was afraid of being surrounded by villagers. , Find a remote place to ask questions.

"...Actually, I didn't expect that I was taken to Fulin Prefecture in a blink of an eye. After clearing up the misunderstanding with that master, I ran into Min Yuerou who was wandering alone in the rivers and lakes when I went down the mountain, so I just came back together. On the way I didn’t suffer much, just like when I went out in the past.”

Listening to Lu Liangsheng's narration, the Taoist squatted aside, turned his face to look at the scholar, and then at the woman sitting on a low stool with her head buried in silence, suspiciousness appeared on her sharp-mouthed monkey-cheeked face.

"So coincidentally?"

"Naturally, it's such a coincidence." Lu Liangsheng replied with a smile, and kicked lightly with his toe, signaling the Taoist to shut up.

No matter the truth or not, when Li Jinhua and Lu Laoshi saw their son came back safely, the other things were not important at all, and they felt heavy in their hearts, especially when they brought back Min Yuerou. She chatted with her hands.

"Fortunately, I ran into you. Maybe my son got lost halfway and couldn't come back."

"By the way, is your father-in-law safe in Chang'an? If you have time, ask them to come over to Qixia Mountain to have a look. Didn't you stay in Fushui County for a few years? That's half your hometown..."

The women in the village were the best at talking. Li Jinhua gave her son a wink while talking. Lu Liangsheng looked around. Fortunately, Hong Lian went back to the temple to recuperate.

"Mother, Xiaoxian, you can talk to Yuerou, I have something to do when I go back to the house."

Saying that, he pulled the Taoist back into the house, before Zhu Gangli came in, the scholar who went in suddenly took off his robe, Sun Yingxian was stunned for a moment, raised his finger and pointed, while quickly backed away, crossing his arms to cover chest.

"Hey, hey, hey... I'm very serious in this way, it's not good to say this."

"What do you think."

Lu Liangsheng glared at him, and threw his robe to the bed. The clothes inside were loose, revealing his back: "Look at what's on it?"

The Taoist lowered his hands in reassurance, looked at the scholar's back, and hurried to the front, whispering:

"Mr. Lu Da, what do you want to do, learn from those fancy arms, why do you get tattoos, and tattoo a bastard..."

"That's a black turtle!"

At this time, Zhu just came in, recognized the pattern on Lu Liangsheng's back at the first sight, closed the door casually, and said in a loud voice: "There is a sea in the north, and there are black turtles coming out of the sea. The cold can transform the spirit water, the spirit water nourishes the body, and can produce kidney water.”

and many more.....

Lu Liangsheng over there was suddenly stunned. How could they tell that it belonged to Xuan Gui? They asked the Taoist to compare the bronze mirror on the desk with his back, and turned his head to see the image reflected at the bottom of the mirror. It was indeed a black ink outline The mysterious tortoise, with the head of a bird and the tail of a snake, put on the appearance of screaming.

The scholar found out the picture scroll he drew before, and compared it, it was almost the same as the one he painted.

Weird, it was still from Xingxiu before.

"Lu Liangsheng, I, old pig, don't know what kind of fate you got, but since there is a black tortoise that can produce kidney water, I have an idea, maybe you can restore your previous cultivation."

The black man looked at the strange beast on the scroll, and recalled his past experience in cultivating Taoism in his heart.

Chapter 377 Five Beasts Connected, Five Elements Live Together

The sun shone through the old trees in the courtyard, Li Jinhua and Min Yuerou's soft voices could be heard under the eaves, and Lu Xiaoxian laughed from time to time.

In the room, Lu Liangsheng put on his robe, frowned and looked back at the contemplative pig demon, waiting quietly for him to finish, while the anxious Taoist sat on the edge of the bed, twisting his buttocks.

"Old pig, what solution do you think of, tell me quickly."

Over there, the chubby figure touched his chin and pondered for a while, took two steps, and pondered for a moment: "My old pig thinks that Lu Liangsheng has lost his cultivation, so he can recast the five elements, and the black turtle can produce kidney water. The strange beast can give birth to the other four elements, so you might as well draw it, if it can appear on him, then it is not feasible."

After being reminded by Zhu Gangli, Lu Liangsheng frowned even more. It seemed that he had never heard of this method, but it did not prevent him from giving it a try.

But before that, the scholar must first find out the other four corresponding ones from among the numerous strange beasts of mountains and seas, and they need to be screened one by one.

Lu Liangsheng sat back at the desk, and based on the narration of the strange beasts in the three "Mountain and Sea Illustrated Records" in his memory, he took pen and ink to summarize and write down again.

The Taoist and Zhu Gangli who stayed in the house seemed bored, and when they saw the scholar's writing content, they didn't bother him and slipped out together.

Min Yuerou, who had been talking for a long time under the eaves, quietly walked to the door and took a look, and saw the scholar's focused side face, with the corner of his mouth pursed into a smile, shyly holding the corner of his clothes and leaving, helping Li Jinhua with some housework.

The sun gradually slanted, spilling a hazy yellow.

The scholar who had been writing for a long time put down his pen, stretched vigorously, let out a breath, and looked at the originally blank page, which was densely covered with handwriting.

'The rest, just find it from inside, it shouldn't be difficult...uh...'

Lu Liangsheng looked out of the window, it was almost dusk, he had been writing for so long unknowingly, Min Yuerou was still at home, she was on the sidelines, after all, something was wrong, when he went out of the house, he found that the woman was quite used to being here, and followed her mother Competing for the front and back, even if some don't know it, they shyly ask for advice.

Xiaoxian gently nudged her elder brother with her elbow, looked at Min Yuerou who was burning fire and breaking firewood in the kitchen, and said in a low voice, "Brother, you are finally enlightened, our family will not lose seedlings, look at your mother's expression, you If you dare to refuse, I'm afraid I will beat you up."

"Let's go, you are too old and not married yet." Lu Liangsheng glanced at her and frowned.

"Hmph." Lu Xiaoxian raised her chin, folded her arms across her chest, turned around and left, "I am still young and beautiful, so I am not willing to marry so soon. I am still a child, what kind of mother should I be?" .”

Ever since my younger sister took the elixir given to her, including her parents, although her age will continue to increase, her old age will become slower and slower. After attending a private school in the village, she has more thoughts of her own. Because of this, Li Jinhua was angry two or three times Back, and Lu Liangsheng also suffered.

As the sky darkened, Hong Lian and Mu Qiyou came back one after another. As soon as the latter saw Lu Liangsheng, he threw himself into his arms and rubbed him a few times, making Hong Lian and Min Yuerou stare at each other with their rice bowls in their hands, and put them on the table with a bang. Lao Shi was sitting on the sidelines looking around, but his wife dragged him to the stove by his ears and told him to serve the dishes on the table.

The Taoist went over to help, took out the talisman, cast the magic of the five ghosts for luck, put the dishes in the air on the round table, and slammed them on Lu Xiaoxian's face, which was full of oily leftovers. Xian held up the stool and ran after him.

The old donkey poked into the kitchen door out of curiosity, and a stool slammed into the door frame. He screamed and neighed in shock, and ran back to the donkey shed.

Soon, the night was dark, and the small courtyard gradually became quiet. Lu Liangsheng returned to the room, lit the oil lamp, and in the dim light, read the names, locations, and descriptions of the strange beasts on the page word by word.

Use pen and ink to circle a few possibly useful strange beasts. Early the next morning, amidst the sound of cock crowing, Min Yuerou got up early and saw Lu Liangsheng sitting on a stone bench in the yard setting up an easel. She went over curiously to have a look at some What.

The green ink in the scholar's hand is repeatedly sketched and wandering. On the top is a one-legged crane with its wings spread out to take off. The feathers are colorfully embellished with green ink, and there are faint outlines like flames around it.

"What kind of bird is this? Why does it only have one foot?" Min Yuerou couldn't help but asked curiously. After all, she had seen a huge monster like a black turtle before, and suddenly she drew a crane again, which was still a bird. feel strange.

Lu Liangsheng put down the last stroke, looked at the strange beast formed on the painting, smiled, took off the drawing paper, and put it on the stone table aside.

"Bi Fang, once the legend appears, it must be accompanied by a fire."

"That and the big turtle that appeared that day..."

The woman couldn't find any suitable words to describe the black tortoise she saw that day, so she had to say it was a big tortoise. Seeing the scholar spread a blank drawing paper on the easel, she stopped what she wanted to say and asked: "Do you still want to draw?"

"Well! There are three more."

After washing the tip of the brush in the water, Lu Liangsheng shook off the water stains and re-stained the ink. The woman's eyes slowly wiped off the paper. The green ink extended from the tip of the brush, forming a shape like a cow, with muscles knotted like pieces On the raised rock, a single horn was drawn on the head with a scholar's brush, the tip of the horn is bent forward, and the sharp side faces the opposite side.

"It's called Xi."

Before the woman could ask, Lu Liangsheng said it first, and kept drawing thick long hair on the whole body of the strange beast.

wow——

He took off the drawing paper and put it on top of Bi Fang's painting, and continued to draw without stopping for a moment. The lyre insect with the animal head and snake body, with two feet like eagle claws, had a penetrating appearance, which gave Min Yuerou goose bumps all over his body.

And the last one is a crouching ferocious beast with a bull head and a bull body, with long hair like a waterfall and four corners on its head. The inner pair is small, the outer pair is thick and curved downwards, and the bull's mouth and fangs protrude. Si bend is completely different, a demeanor of choosing and devouring.

Looking at the four vivid pictures of alien beasts, Min Yuerou felt heart palpitations. When the morning sun came, she felt a chill in her back. She watched Lu Liangsheng carefully compare the four pictures and took them into the room.

When the scholar opened the door and entered the room, when the four paintings were placed in front of "The Boundless Mountains and Seas", a change happened quietly, and four strands of green energy visible to the naked eye floated out of the painting and disappeared into the book.

In the frame of the "Mountains and Seas" event, the air flow is flowing, and the voices of strange beasts can be vaguely heard from above. Lu Liangsheng raised the book and unfolded it, and saw four heads of strange beasts among the mountains on the frame. Appearance, respectively, and the black tortoise in the order of the five elements, standing on the top of the mountain.

The next moment, feeling the itching in his back, Lu Liangsheng clenched his fists.

The faint feeling became clear, itching everywhere, as if someone was poking with the tip of a brush, and couldn't help but take off his robe and want to scratch.

On his invisible back, the black dots that appeared in the corresponding positions of the five internal organs gradually formed stars and connected together, forming the appearance of a strange beast.

"Master Lu, I'm bringing breakfast."

Outside the door, Min Yuerou, who came in with breakfast, had her beautiful eyes wide open. The scholar who took off his robe was covered in tattoos, and almost knocked over the porridge.
