Rebirth of the Demon Dao

Lin Yunshen arrived at an inn at the foot of the Tibetan Green Mountain, and wanted to stay overnight in the inn. When he touched his pocket, he realized that Yang Liuyi was a poor man who had run out of money.So he looked under the arbor in front of the hotel and took aim at a man.

That person looks elegant, and he is not an ordinary person at first glance. Although he is deliberately disguised and the clothes are not gorgeous, the jade pendant on his waist is worth a lot of money, especially the sword next to him, which is made of black iron. People from the Taoist sect, and should be a direct line of the Taoist family, but I can't tell which one it is.But it doesn't matter which one, Taoism cultivators have a tradition, they will help each other when they go out, regardless of rewards, this is "friendship of the same way".

He looked himself up and down again, making sure that he had no flaws, thought for a while, took a breath, walked over, took off the sword on his back, and put it heavily on the table.The sword he carried on his back was a good sword, so good that it didn't suit a little Taoist like Yang Liuyi who had little mana.Now that he has no cultivation base, he is just an ordinary man, dragging a sickly body, and he feels as heavy as death with this lump of iron on his back.

When the man saw his sword, he clasped his fists and nodded.Lin Yunshen sat down and said with a grin: "Brother, I've been away for too long, and I've used up all my money. I wonder if you can lend me some, brother. I'm going to Yangliuyi, long..."

Before he finished speaking, the other party smiled awkwardly: "I'm really sorry, I've been traveling for too long, and I've already used up all my money. For such a little, I'd better let others borrow it."

As the man said, he showed him his money bag, and sure enough there were not a few coins left: "Why don't you wait for a while, wait for my teacher..."

Before the man finished speaking, a money bag fell into his hand: "Brother, please take it yourself."

Lin Yunshen grinned and turned his head to thank him, but when he saw the people behind him, he froze in place.

Behind him did not know when a group of Taoist disciples came, and the one who gave him the money bag was a young man, about the same age as he is now.But what frightened him was that this group of people came from Xizhou.

When it comes to Xizhou School, everyone in the world should know it.If you talk about the Taoist family of cultivating immortals today, if the Xizhou faction considers themselves second, no one would dare to admit that they are the first.

At that time, Taoist arts flourished in the world, and four schools of Fuzhuan appeared, such as Beichuan, Changzhou, Wucheng, and Xizhou.Beichuan follows the Jishan Sect, with the purpose of "educating and persuading goodness", and its talismans are also most effective in praying for blessings and najibs. The sect is all female disciples, all of whom are as beautiful as flowers.Changzhou followed the Talisman School, which mainly focuses on exorcising ghosts and curing evil, and the talisman seals are also more fierce and domineering.The Wucheng School was originally a branch of the Danding School, with the purpose of alchemy and seeking immortality. It was once prominent in the past, but now it is not as powerful as before.Each of these three sects belongs to one sect, each occupying one side, but in terms of origin, they all come from the same sect, that is, the Xizhou Lu family.

The Xizhou School once took the Xuanzhen School as its teaching purpose, emphasizing the participation of "truth", advocating returning to the original and returning to the true, and at the same time attaching the art of true art, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all perfect, so it is also called Confucianism and Taoism, elegant Taoism, and is famous for its nobility. In the world, he is quite prestigious, and he is the ancestor of the Taoist family.With more and more children in Xizhou, each practice has its own emphasis, and then different side branches such as talisman seals and golden pills are derived.Among the various sects, Xizhou is the most prosperous, with scriptures, rituals, talismans, Zhaijiao, refining and cultivation, golden pills, medicine, etc., and it is the most important Taoist home of the imperial court.

But in his view, the Xizhou faction is just a group of hypocrites trying to gain fame, a real villain with a decent face.Most of the disciples of the Xizhou School are proud of their high-spirited origins and have long since lost the Confucianism and Taoism of the past.The head of the Xizhou School is Lu Zhengdao, because Lu Zhengdao's younger sister, Lu Xunying, married into the Han family, so the Han and Lu families have a close relationship. He grew up in the Han family, and he also knows many children of the Xizhou School. Zhengdao's only son, Lu Yuanhe, can fight at the slightest disagreement, and is what Han Qinchuan calls a "dead enemy".And Lu Yuanhe's aunt, Han Qinchuan's mother, Lu Xunying, died at his hands.Now that he met someone from the Lu family, he had to quickly avoid the limelight.

So he quickly picked up the money bag and took out a piece of broken silver from it: "This is enough, thank you."

The young man didn't ask any further questions, he glanced at him, took the money bag and sat down, his cold appearance looked like a child of the Lu family.I haven't seen you for so many years, but the disciples of the Lu family in Xizhou are still the most generous and forthright.It's just why the children of Xizhou appeared at the foot of Tibetan Green Mountain.Xizhou is at least half a month away from Tibetan Qingshan. It is impossible that people from Xizhou rushed here just after he was reborn.They must have been around here.Have they heard about their own rebirth, or is it just a coincidence?

Lin Yunshen grabbed the money and got up, and went to the nearby hotel.

Although it was expected that these Xuanmen disciples would also sleep here, but it was already dark, and it was not easy to find another hotel, so they would sleep here tonight.

This hotel is not big, and there is a hunting order pasted at the door, but the characters painted on the hunting order are still him back then, and their appearance is quite different from him. Not surprising.The door was unobstructed, and the window of the kitchen next to it was wide open, and a fat cook was killing a chicken there, and the blood of the chicken was sprayed all over the floor.The proprietress had a big waist, pinching her waist and cursing there: "You can't go to the backyard to kill, the chicken blood is all over the floor, the guests are all scared away by you!"

The fat cook didn't take it seriously, and said with a greasy grinning grin: "Miss Boss, now that you see so many Taoist masters coming outside, it can be seen that there are monsters and ghosts in our land, and this chicken blood is spilled on the ground." , it can also exorcise evil spirits!"

"Stop messing around and clean up for me quickly. It's already hot and stuffy, and you still smell like blood!"

As soon as the proprietress finished speaking, she turned her head and saw Lin Yunshen. She immediately changed her smile and asked, "Xiao Daoist, do you want to stay in the shop?"

"Is there any room left?"

"Yes, upstairs private room!"

Lin Yunshen went upstairs with the proprietress, and asked as they walked, "Madam proprietress, I just heard you talk, is there something evil in this place?"

The proprietress smiled and said: "I don't know if there is any evil, but since yesterday, there have been several groups of Taoist disciples. Don't you just do this job, you don't know, and you still come to ask me?"

"I'm just here to make a fool of myself, to join in the fun."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone shouting from the yard: "Boss, is there any room left?"

The proprietress hurriedly opened the door of a room: "The priest is sitting inside, I'll go down to entertain the guests, call me if you need something."

"Thank you."

The proprietress ran down in a hurry, and the stairs she stepped on creaked.He walked to the window, pushed open a crack and looked into the yard, and saw the young man who had just been shy.But there was another person standing next to him, looking up.The figure of the man was extremely long, his waist was black-colored Bawu, his clothes were plain and dull, but they were embroidered with white crabapple flowers, his black hair was fixed with a jade hairpin, the golden afterglow of the setting sun shone on his face, and he had a high nose. Thin lips, even more graceful than before.The two looked at each other, Lin Yunshen quickly retracted his head, and looked out secretly after a while, the man was no longer visible.

After ten years of absence, Youlang of the Bai family has grown up.If it is said that he was vicious, vicious and hypocritical in his previous life, maybe he has given a little sincerity to this person.

Speaking of the Jiangdong Bai family, it is known to everyone, and it is a famous Confucian family that has flourished and flourished for generations. "The Bai family in the world comes from Jiangdong, and the Jiangdong Bai family is in the same family." Jiangdong is the place where the Bai family is most concentrated, and the Bai family in Jiangdong, the fourth generation of Taiwei, has successive virtues and careers. It is a famous family among famous families.Even though the two incumbents of the Bai family were implicated and died because of a witch case back then, and Taifu Bai Zhengying returned home with his descendants, the prestige of the Bai family remained undiminished.

When he escaped from Cheung Chau, he took refuge in the Bai family. He was very familiar with the children of the Bai family in Jiangdong.His fiancee, Bai Huiduan, is Bai Zhengying's niece.The Bai family is directly related to one line, and there are two descendants, the two sons born to Bai Zhengying, the eldest son Bai Yin, courtesy name Xiu.As for the second son, Bai He, he doesn't know what character he took, because when he was out of his wits, Bai He hadn't taken the character and crowned it.

Lin Yunshen would not be willing to live in Bai's house if he hadn't been helpless.He is so carefree that he is not suitable to live in an official's house.But the Bai family is all pleasing to the eye, and I don't know whether it is intentional or destiny. The descendants of the Bai family are all handsome men and beautiful women, so there are rumors that beauty is more important than virtuous when choosing a wife for the children of the Bai family. The reason is "a relationship comes from the heart".This is also one of the reasons why he is popular in the Bai family. Bai Zhengying said that he "has a beautiful appearance, and his temperament should not be bad."

But Bai Yin, the son of Bai's family, doesn't like him. The son of Bai Yin's family is noble and has a gentleman's style, but in private, only he knows that this person loves to speak evil words, has a very bad temper, is arrogant and domineering, and makes it difficult for people to get close to him. .The Bai family has always been engaged in official careers. After several dynasties, they are full of Four Books and Five Classics, Confucian scholars.Now I also learn the style of Taoism, purely to assist my family to make a difference in the government.Bai Yin was educated by the orthodox thought, and he was quite disdainful of the current court's upholding morals.

Wearing a Confucian uniform and wearing the crown of Zhang Fu, Bai Yin hated cultivating immortals and learning Taoism, let alone demonic ways. In addition, the difference between the two people's lives was too great, so Bai Yin always disliked him.He felt that this was a common problem among young men of aristocratic families. Because of his extraordinary background, he also learned to be double-faced. He treated people from high families in one way and people from poor families in another way.

Now Bai Yin is taller, with a tall body, and the teenager who was in the high wall of the rich family back then is now a jade tree facing the wind.

It's just that he heard that although it was Han Qinchuan who poisoned him back then, it was Bai Yin who burned his body.I don't know where Hakuin had such a big resentment with him, he didn't even remember it.

It would be great if he could get back his lost soul.

He let out a breath, put down the sword on his back, and loosened his muscles and bones.

He fell asleep without eating dinner, but he had a demonic heart disease and his body was weak, so he couldn't fall asleep. When he was half asleep and half awake, he suddenly heard a strange sound. He opened his eyes suddenly and found someone on the roof.

This person walked in disorder, and he must have been huge. The tiles shattered and fell, and he was not the only one who woke up.Immediately afterwards, a scream cut through the night: "There are ghosts, there are ghosts!"

Lin Yunshen grabbed the sword on the couch and was about to get up, but was staggered by the blade of the sword.This sword is dead heavy, if it wasn't for Yang Liuyi's belongings and some friendship, he really wanted to throw away this heavy thing.

He ran outside the door in disheveled clothes, and saw the disciples of the Luxizhou faction standing in the corridor with their swords in disheveled clothes. The young man who lent him the money bag during the day said, "It's in the backyard."

After hearing this, everyone went downstairs, Lin Yunshen was hesitating whether to follow him, when he saw Bai Yin coming out of a room on the other side.

Seeing him walking towards this direction, Lin Yunshen hurriedly mixed into the crowd and walked down.The sword in his hand was very heavy, he dragged it down, the sword body thumped against the stairs, he held his breath, and refused to show his clumsiness, it was dark, he staggered "Oh" and tripped on the ground On the ground, he quickly turned his head to look at Hakuin, only to see that Hakuin passed him without even looking at him.

Still staring at no one.It's just that although Bai Yin knows a little bit of Taoism, he is a layman's disciple, why is he here to join in the fun?He looked up, only to see a mysterious sword on Hakuin's back.

He was silent for a moment with a gloomy face, then put on an innocent look, got up quickly, and followed them to the backyard.Unexpectedly, before the others could stand still, a person fell from the eaves, and a bloody smell rushed towards him. He quickly covered his mouth and nose, and when he took a closer look, he saw a bloody and fat man under the moonlight. The man fell in front of him.

It was the cook I saw during the day, and he was dead.

"Who shouted that there was a ghost just now?"

"It's...it's me," the proprietress said with a pale face, clutching her chest, "Just... I just woke up at night when I suddenly heard movement on the eaves, so I took a look, who knows... I saw him standing on the eaves , looking up at the moon, without making a sound. Then he began to bite his own flesh, those eyes... those eyes are green..."

"It was possessed by an evil spirit, it should be a body-gnawing ghost." Lin Yunshen blurted out.

Hakuin turned his head and glanced at him, and he shrank his head immediately: "I guess..."

"White pheasant, go up and have a look."

Hearing this, the young man, who was always cash-strapped, jumped onto the roof.The smell of blood was everywhere in the yard. It didn't seem like one person died, but a lot of people died.The weather was still very hot and stuffy, and the smell of blood was even stronger, making one's hair stand on end.After a while, the white pheasant came down from the roof and shook his head: "I didn't find anything suspicious."

Hakuin heard the words but suddenly turned to look at him: "What do you think?"

Lin Yunshen shook his head like a rattle: "My knowledge is very shallow, I don't understand..."

Why did Hakuin ask himself alone, has he been exposed?

Suddenly screams came from the direction of the tea shop outside, breaking the temporary tranquility, people in the courtyard rushed towards the gate, the screams from outside became more and more sinister, making people feel creepy, Lin Yunshen felt that his courage became smaller Yep, my heart was beating so hard, I just felt that the weather, which was still sweltering, suddenly became chilly.

There are so many Taoist disciples sitting in the town here, presumably all evil spirits can be subdued, he has no magic power now, he is just an ordinary Taoist, it is better not to get involved, not to mention meeting old acquaintances again, taking advantage of the chaos of people now, secretly Slipping away is the right thing to do.

So he hurried back to get his bundle and came out, looked to the side, and vaguely saw a haystack piled up at the foot of the east wall, which he could just climb over. Waist up to the wall, step on the haystack and climb up.Unexpectedly, the haystack was so loose that he almost fell into the mud. The sword on his back was heavy and heavy. grabbed his ankle.Lin Yunshen's heart skipped a beat, and the weeds on the wall scraped against his neck. At this moment, the full moon was covered by dark clouds, and the wind was also chilly.He gritted his teeth and looked back abruptly.

Only after looking at it did he realize that it wasn't Xiesong who was holding him, but Hakuin.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and asked innocently, "What are you going to do?"

"Where are you going?"

"Run for your life."

"The door is open, why not go the right way?"

"..." Lin Yunshen chuckled twice: "I'm used to walking in crooked ways."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Yin grabbed his wrist suddenly, and before he could yell out, a talisman was pasted on his forehead with a "slap", and his face sank!

He almost drew his sword to face him, but the talisman was stuck on his forehead, and he just froze for a moment, the gloomy expression on his face turned into surprise, he opened his mouth wide and looked at Hakuin, who also stared at him closely, Lin Yunshen realized that there was no need for him to panic.Although he is reborn, he is still a living person, neither a ghost nor a monster, a few talismans can do nothing to him.It's just... Hakuin has also entered the Taoist sect now?

Nowadays, the imperial court upholds Taoism, and Taoism and politics are indistinguishable, so powerful families will also have Taoist children, but according to the tradition, "the eldest son inherits the power and nobles, and the second son follows the Taoism".It should be Bai He, the second son of the Bai family who took the Taoist path. Bai Yin has always wanted to pursue an official career, and he has always hated cultivating immortals and learning Taoism.

But just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a faint scream, like ghosts and ghosts, as if it was in his ears. His heart tightened, and he saw two scrawny arms around his neck, and then suddenly his body As soon as it was lightened, the Taoist talisman slipped from his forehead and burned instantly. He was riding on the wall, dumbfounded.
