Five years have passed.

Donglai Zhou because of the gradual revival of the spirit in the continent, demons from all over the country are frequent, fortunately, the Le Dynasty is flourishing, there are strong soldiers on the ground, once these monsters gather into a department, they will be immediately destroyed, although it is up and down at the beginning, but it is difficult to become a trend.

Changping County, the capital of the county.

"Lord Yuan, the last general has brought the head of the king of Horseshoe Mountain. ”

A general with a double pheasant feather in his hat stood at the foot of the stairs and held a black wooden box high in his hand, and everyone in the hall could see blood on it coming out of the cracks.

Yuan Zhenping raised his hand, and his own guards went down to bring up the wooden box.

He stretched out his hand and opened it, and suddenly a fishy smell diffused out, but he didn't seem to hear it, and he also picked up the hideous demon head with his own hand and checked it, and after confirming that it was correct, he waved his hand to let people take it away, and drew a tick on the merit book.

However, looking at the names and surnames of several demon kings on the thin book, it was a slight stroke.

The generals below are all beaming, this cloud king is a flower and a sparrow, there are hundreds of demon pawns under his hands, and he often goes down the mountain to hunt people and animals for food.

Because it flew around, it was extremely difficult to kill, and it took several months to arrange it in the county, laying a bait to lure it to come, until yesterday, it was eradicated, although a few little demons escaped, but it could not do much harm.

At this time, a civil official came out and said loudly: "My lord, once this demon is removed, the mountain road in the south has been opened, and we will gather troops and horses to attack the Qiqiao Demon King entrenched in this mountain, so the whole county can be determined!"

Yuan Zhenping said in a deep voice: "It's to suppress, but don't be in a hurry." ”

The civil official was stunned. His remarks were something that had already been decided, otherwise how would he dare to say it on his own, as soon as he thought about it, he knew that things had changed, and hurriedly said: "My lord is right, it is the lower official who is anxious." ”

Yuan Zhenping waved his hand and said, "It has nothing to do with you, the day before yesterday, I already found out that this Tangram King is not a demon king, but a total of seven." ”

"The Seven-Headed Demon King?"

The generals present all exclaimed. If you go back hundreds of years. The demon king is nothing, at that time, the monarch of the Le Dynasty often killed dozens of them in a battle, but since the world was pacified, it was rare. If there are two or three demon kings in a county, they can alarm the court.

It is necessary to know that a demon needs at least ten strong iron spearmen. It is supplemented by a strong bow and crossbow. to be able to take it.

And such a character needs to take the blood of the demon essence and wash his body with secret medicine. At least more than ten years of training can be completed, and when you put it in the army, you can be a hundred.

There were originally thirty-two iron spear generals in the county, but after killing demons a few times, there were also injuries, and now there are only twenty-seven people left, and against seven demon kings, the odds of victory are very few.

A general said with a worried face: "When Emperor Wuzong was emperor, the demon was expelled to the sea, I thought that the world was peaceful, but I didn't think that it would not be more than 20 years, and it was uneasy. ”

Another whispered: "There are rumors that a banshee has infiltrated the harem and caused trouble ...... the dynasty."

Yuan Zhenping's face suddenly sank, and he shouted: "Nonsense, this is just a folk rumor, you and I, as court officials, how can we talk in vain?

He is extremely powerful, this face, most of the people in the hall are not afraid to speak, only the first civil official to speak before is not afraid, and said with a solemn face: "My lord, the Qiqiao Demon King must be suppressed quickly, otherwise it will become the climate, and it will become a great harm." ”

Yuan Zhenping said in a deep voice: "I also know this truth, but the county lieutenant colonel has been dispatched repeatedly, and he is already exhausted. ”

The civil official pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said, "My lord, I heard that there was an Immortal Seal Immortal Master in the Shangde Immortal Temple the day before yesterday, why not ask for help there?"

Yuan Zhenping's eyes lit up, and he felt that it was also an idea, so he nodded slowly and said, "Wait for me to think about it." ”

Since Zhang Yan's doppelganger passed down the Qi practice method, this method has been widely spread among the world, although no one has been able to open the pulse and break through the barrier, but among them a little achievement, are all physically strong, running like flying, practice is only a short ten years, its strength is not inferior to the general.

And this recipe does not need external medicine, as long as you have perseverance and perseverance, and practice hard, you will not be able to enter the Tao, at least you can strengthen your body.

It's just that it's so hard, but it's not as easy as cultivating it with demon bones and blood, so it's not taken by the big families, but it's loved by some poor disciples.

In the past, in order to deal with demons, it was necessary to invite officers and soldiers to come to encircle and suppress them, but with this method, some mountain and wild spirits with little power can deal with them at home.

This also attracted the attention of the imperial court, afraid that after the people obtained the law, disturbed the order of respect and inferiority, but seeing that this was handed down by the immortal master of Shangde, he did not dare to ban it, so he sealed the name of the immortal master one by one, and allowed it to set up a view in various places, and every year some disciples can be selected to enter the court as officials, even if some authority is divided, but in this way, there is no fear of its birth and chaos.

After Yuan Zhenping retreated, he was thinking about how to ask the immortal master to come out to help, but someone from his subordinates came to report: "Master, the eldest prince is here." ”

Yuan Zhen said happily: "Is Qing'er here, I am looking for him, call him in quickly." ”

When he was young, Yuan Jingqing came up to the hall, knelt down, and said, "The child has seen his father." ”

Yuan Zhenping saw that he hadn't seen him for many days, and his own child became more and more heroic, and his demeanor was also calm, and he was very pleased: "My son hurry up." ”

After the father and son sat down, they talked in the back hall, and after talking about some trivial things at home, Yuan Zhenping asked Yuan Jingqing about his intentions, and the latter replied: "The child wants to enter Beijing this time, and go to Qinghe Mountain to seek the Tao." ”

Yuan Zhenping was stunned for a moment, and muttered: "Can't you wait a few more years?"

Yuan Jingqing said: "The child has only felt that it is difficult to make progress recently, and after thinking about it, it is the opportunity to enter the mountain." ”

Yuan Zhenping nodded and said: "It's okay, after you finish your studies, I hope to be able to protect the country and the people like a few immortal masters. ”

Yuan Jingqing said solemnly: "Father, please speak." ”

Yuan Zhenping said the reason, and said: "Now that the imperial court is using troops everywhere, even if the father invites the heavenly army, it will take at least half a year, but if there is the help of the Shangde Guan Immortal Master, it will not be difficult to get rid of the seven-headed demon king." ”

Yuan Jingqing thought about it, he hasn't been working behind closed doors all these years. I made friends with many cultivators who practiced this doorway, and a few of them had even entered the immortal temple, so they said seriously: "The child must bring the words." ”

Because the matter involved the safety of the people in the county, it was not appropriate to delay, so he decided to go on the road immediately, and Yuan Zhenping wanted to send several generals to follow, but he resigned.

Yuan Zhenping also knew that his child was different, and he didn't have to say anything, and he still had mana faintly, so he wasn't too worried. And he gave him two good horses. He also ordered his men to prepare his belongings and send him out of the house in person.

After Yuan Jingqing said goodbye to his father, he rode out of the city and headed north along the avenue.

Let go of the horse's hooves. The two horses take turns to replace. After running for a night. He wasn't tired yet, but the two good horses were sweaty and panting. So he found a clean place by the roadside to rest, untied the water bladder, and took out dry food to feed his stomach.

In fact, he was born with the ability to capture the spirit from the outside, and it was okay without drinking water, but he had been living in Fu Zhen for more than 20 years, and he had long been accustomed to this, and although he went to the outside world this time, he did not do so.

After a pause for a while, his head suddenly darkened, he was very alert, and when he looked up, he saw a strange bird hovering in the sky.

"In the next life, you are in a catastrophe. ”

Yuan Jingqing heard a human voice not far away, turned his head to look, and at some point, there was a sloppy old Taoist on the shade of the tree on the side of the road.

He unhurriedly put away the water bladder, and then said, "Dao Chief, what do you mean by this?"

The old Taoist said: "The one who passed just now is one of the Seven Clever Demon Kings, the Bodu Demon King, there is no one in this radius of dozens of miles, it is just spinning around your head, I am afraid that it is staring at you." ”

Yuan Jingqing glanced at it again and said, "Is that the Qiqiao Demon King?"

The old Taoist saw that he was not flustered at all, sighed, looked at it a few more times, and said, "Aren't you afraid?"

Yuan Jingqing said confidently: "The student is also half a cultivator, if the demon king comes, he will win without saying anything, and he can be forced to retreat." ”

The old Taoist smiled and said, "Cultivator, young man, do you know that there is a difference between big and small?"

Yuan Jingqing said: "I have never heard of this. ”

The old Tao said slowly: "Driving away ghosts and confusing people is the lower way, calling the wind and calling the rain is the upper way, health adjustment is the small road, and longevity is the road." ”

Yuan Jingqing sighed and said, "I don't know what kind of way of long-term cultivation is?"

Lao Dao laughed and said, "Naturally, the cultivation is a leisurely avenue." ”

Yuan Jingqing asked again: "How is the Joyful Avenue?"

"Walking in this world, you may be at ease everywhere?"

Yuan Jingqing thought for a while and said: "If there are no rules, there is no square circle, even if you are the emperor of the world, you can't do what you want." ”

Lao Dao clapped his hands and said: "Ah, Lao Dao cultivates this way, which is to ask for the unrestrained, once it is done, the sky does not care, the earth does not collect, come and go." ”

Yuan Jingqing said: "It's like this, and it doesn't have a hundred years of life, what can you do if you get free?"

Lao Dao praised: "This is a good saying, it's just a leisure, because there is a wonderful way of immortality in the world, you can live forever and live with the sky." ”

Yuan Jingqing raised his eyebrows and said, "What a big breath." ”

Lao Dao said with a smile: "Forcing is not the law, you are not a guest outside the door, believe it or not, it is in your heart." ”

Yuan Jingqing said: "I have a method here, and I can also live forever."

The old Taoist said, "What method?"

Yuan Jingqing took out a book from his bosom, and just took it out, the old Taoist took it out of his hand, looked at it a few times, smiled disdainfully, threw it on the ground, and said: "What kind of road do I have, it turns out to be this small technique, although this method can also strengthen the muscles and bones, but it is shallow, but it can't practice any magical power." ”

Yuan Jingqing tightened his eyebrows, stepped forward to pick up the book, patted off the dust, smoothed out the wrinkles, and carefully put it away.

The old man sneered: "I said that these are useless a long time ago, what are you picking them up for?"

Yuan Jingqing didn't answer, and asked, "I don't know where to ask for the wonderful method that the Taoist chief said?"

Lao Dao suddenly came to the spirit, and said: "Here five hundred miles, there is a distant mountain, there is an immortal living in it, named Banyun Zhenren, whose people are powerful, you can go there, as long as you are sincere, you can hit the immortal." ”

Yuan Jingqing turned over and got on his horse, just looking in that direction, it was still north.

Seeing this, Lao Dao called him and said, "You are going the wrong way, you should go south." ”

Yuan Jingqing said: "How could I have promised you to go there?"

Old Wenyan's face sank, and he said, "Then why do you want to ask where to go?"

Yuan Jingqing sneered: "Except for my Shangde disciples, the rest of the world are all evil ways, I ask you where you came from, naturally you will kill the door in the future, destroy the Ermen Court, Zhu'er disciples, destroy the Erfa scroll, and break the Daogen!"
