Chapter 55: The Hidden Demon
"Master, I found another piece, can you help me take a look?"
A cheer rang out from a ravine in the depths of the wilderness, but it was Lu Zheng standing in the middle of the stream holding a crystal clear stone the size of a finger, and his face splashed with countless splashes was filled with excitement.
"This is an ordinary Lan stone, although the breath is pure, if it is large enough, it can be used to make a box to store medicines, but the medicine can be preserved without loss, this piece is only the size of a finger, and it is not of much use. Although he no longer knew how many strange stones he had given his physical properties and uses, the voice of the man in white was not impatient, and no matter what Lu Zheng touched, it could not surprise him.
After finding the cold spirit that day, Lu Zheng decided that there must be other treasures in this stream, so he went up the stream and searched for it with his divine sense. For two days in a row, I picked up a lot of all kinds of large and small, colorful stones, some of which are still some jade that are relatively rare in the world, if I replaced Lu Zheng, who was a beggar in the world, it was already a lot of wealth, but now I can only hear the master say again and again, 'It's useless' or 'I can't refine the magic weapon'.
But Lu Zheng was not discouraged at all, he himself knitted a small basket with branches, hung it around his waist, and put the piece of cold spirit in it. Whenever he touched these stones that he thought were beautiful or interesting, he threw them into the bamboo basket, and in the past two days, he has had a small half basket.
The man in white neither stopped nor encouraged this, whenever Lu Zheng touched some stones. He will also help Lu Zheng identify. At the beginning, he also reminded Lu Zheng that it was luck that he found that piece of coldness, it was already amazing to have such a piece of coldness in a mountain, and it was impossible to have other heavenly treasures. But seeing that Lu Zheng was interested, he didn't say anything anymore, maybe he felt that Lu Zheng's doing this would not delay him from practicing how to sense the properties of all things.
Lu Zheng walked up the stream for three days, the stream became smaller and smaller, and there were fewer and fewer beautiful stones in the river. On this day, Lu Zheng finally gave up the search and went ashore to find a large, flat rock. All the stones in his basket came out. 'Whoa'. Hundreds of stones of various colors occupy half of this large rock.
Lu Zheng kept pulling these stones, looking satisfied. When the man in white saw him flipping, he picked out one and held it in the palm of his hand from time to time, and then continued to look for the next one. And he jumped out of the stone. It is not the purest of things. Then he asked, "Lu Zheng." What are you doing?"
Lu Zheng smiled and said a little embarrassed: "I want to pick some out and make a bracelet for Xin'er." He knew that he couldn't hide it from his master. I just said it happily. The man in white suddenly realized, no wonder he saw that the stones picked out by Lu Zheng were all pure and bright in color, uniform and round in size, and they were originally used for such a purpose.
Lu Zheng was picking, and when he saw that the master didn't answer, he casually asked, "Master, do you have someone you like?"
Lu Zheng has been with the man in white for a long time, and he feels more and more that this master has an easy-going temperament, and sometimes he likes to joke and joke with himself, without the slightest arrogance. Getting along with himself, sometimes it's like his friend, even if he complains, no matter if he quarrels with him, he won't get angry, he can be described as a teacher and friend, making him feel very comfortable. It is precisely because I am not used to it that I ask such a question, you must know that if this is in other sects in the cultivation world, a disciple asks such a question to the master, but it is very disrespectful and will be punished.
The man in white didn't seem to expect Lu Zheng to ask himself such a question, he first paused for a moment, as if this question caused him some memories, and said, "Someone you like?" It seems that there should be one. ”
Lu Zheng asked casually, but he didn't expect the master to answer, and when he heard it, he suddenly became curious and wanted to get to the bottom of it, but unexpectedly, he heard the man in white continue: "It's just like ...... It's like I don't remember who she is. ”
Lu Zheng immediately exclaimed, "Master, you remember so many tricks, but you can't even figure out who you are. That's it, now you even forget about the person you like, it's too unconscionable!"
Just a few days ago, when Lu Zheng asked the master if he knew all the cultivation methods of the Daomen, including the Taishang Xuanmiao Sutra, the man in white replied with a sentence that surprised him even more, he said: "If you want to learn, I still have the first method of the Buddhism here, the thirty-two body physiognomy formulas." Lu Zheng was so shocked that his mouth grew and he couldn't speak for a long time.
When he reacted, Lu Zheng immediately asked the origin of the master in white and asked him who he was, but the man in white just smiled and insisted that he couldn't figure it out, which made Lu Zheng suspicious, but he was helpless. It made his master's origin feel mysterious, and now he heard that he actually had someone he liked, and he wanted to learn about the master's past from it, but he didn't expect the man in white to use the trick of forgetting jì to deal with it.
The man in white said: "I really forgot about it, but I clearly remember it." Even if you say that I have no conscience, I can't explain it clearly, forgetting is forgetting, remembering what people just remember, knowing that I have forgotten, this is people's conscience. ”
In the cultivation world, those who directly scolded the master for having no conscience were afraid that Lu Zheng would be alone. And those who don't get angry after hearing this kind of words, and who still tirelessly reason with their disciples, I'm afraid that of course there are only people in white.
Lu Zheng was disdainful when he heard it, knowing that the master was tight-mouthed, and what he didn't want to say, it was useless to wear out his mouth, and he said in his heart, he would find a way to know one day, and he still put his mind on the stone in front of him. He chose and chosen, and in the end he only chose red, white, yellow, blue, and black, with different colors, plus a transparent total of six stones, all of which were only the size of the finger segments of the little finger.
The color of these stones is pure but not bright, the stone is moist but not astringent, and the size is moderate in the hand. Lu Zheng is familiar with the size of Xin'er's wrist, and these six stones are worn, and there is one in the middle, which can just form a beautiful six-stone bracelet. It's just that there are no tools in front of him to drill out of the stone eye, and there is no rope to wear into a bracelet, Lu Zheng put them on the rock, looked at it again and again, and was satisfied, thinking about the appearance of the bracelet in his heart, and smiled.
At this moment, the man in white said: "Silly boy, don't be a nymphomaniac, something has been staring at you for a long time, in the forest behind you, but there doesn't seem to be any malice." ”
Lu Zheng was nervous when he heard this, and hurriedly pulled the dust out of his waist and held it in his hand, and at the same time jumped to the cat's waist under the rock, and had already turned around, and with the power of the imperial object, he grabbed a handful of stones he spread on the rock and stayed in front of him, ready to shoot out at any time. He reacted so quickly that he did these movements in one go, and he did it very cleanly and beautifully.
At the same time, his divine sense unfolded and swept towards the woods, and sure enough, he saw a figure crawling on the ground in the depths of the forest, looking at himself sneakily behind a tree, not daring to approach. Lu Zheng sensed clearly, this should be a certain monster, the strength is not very strong, and he should be able to deal with it. In the past few days, he has encountered many such situations, most of them are some monsters in the wilderness, and the magic power is not strong, and it is more than enough for him to deal with it. But he didn't do anything to kill them, he just scared them away.
At the moment when the divine consciousness swept over the monster, the monster also sensed it, and immediately ran away, as if it was surprised by something. It moved, Lu Zheng immediately used the magic method to chase it, he was going to rest here at night, if he didn't scare this monster away, I am afraid that it would come to harass again at night, and then it would be a toss.
Lu Zheng, who was in the middle of the gods, floated up, slid on the grass tips and leaves without sticking to the ground, although he was in the dense forest, his speed was still extremely fast, and he caught up with the monster at once, and he also saw clearly, there was a little white deer demon in front of him, and he immediately let out a roar.
The little white deer demon was frightened, his steps were chaotic, but he ran faster, and after jumping three times and two times, he actually disappeared from Lu Zheng's sight. Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood that this was the little white deer demon who had cast a stealth magic spell. Although it is no longer visible to the naked eye, he locks its breath with his divine sense, and naturally he will not lose it.
At this moment, the man in white took the opportunity to say: "Silly boy, don't forget, you can't see it with the naked eye, your divine sense is clear, activate your eye power, don't you see it?"
That's right, why didn't he think of it? Lu Zheng chased after him endlessly, and immediately activated his eye power, and sure enough, the little white deer demon appeared in front of him again. It's just that it's not that the little white deer demon has withdrawn the spell, but Lu Zheng's spell is more clever than it, and if he changes to other creatures, he still can't see the little white deer.
After chasing for a while, just when Lu Zheng felt that he had almost caught up far enough, the little white deer demon suddenly jumped forward, and then disappeared from Lu Zheng's divine sense. Lu Zheng stopped his mind and said in surprise, "Master, what's going on?"
The man in white said: "In the place where the little white deer disappeared just now, there is a magic circle enchantment, which cuts off your divine sense. The monster that can support such an enchantment is much more clever than you, you can't afford to mess with it, so before the other party comes out, let's go! Don't spend the night there tonight!"
When Lu Zheng heard this, he said, "Okay, I'll go there and get the stone and leave." He quickly retreated back where he was, and at the same time wiped out his breath so as not to be tracked down. After a while, he came to the big rock, but what made him dumbfounded was that not only the stone that had prepared the bracelet for Xin'er was gone, but also the hundreds of other stones he had found.
