Astral Apostle Chapter 174: Evil spirit

After seeing some mysterious tricks and being caught by Zhou Jing's trick of trying to get him, the Ye family's attitude changed drastically, they were respectful and did not dare to do it again.

Ye Heng was punished a bit, but he didn't hold any grudges. Instead, he became infinitely curious about Zhou Jing's abilities, and only then did he know that there are such means in the world besides martial arts.

However, he didn't dare to ask Zhou Jing casually, and couldn't help feeling itchy.

Ye Shunzhong saw that his family members finally got on the road, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and spoke loudly, which was a public statement:

"The Taoist priest has practiced all the year round, and rarely set foot in the mortal world. This is the first time he has come to Ningtian Mansion, and I, the Ye family, will do my best to handle trivial matters."

"That's right, I'm a servant of the Ye family, and the Taoist priest can do whatever I want."

When everyone heard the words, they didn't contradict them any more, they spoke in agreement one after another, and the atmosphere was heated for a while.

At this time, Zhou Jing's heart moved, and he said, "I do have something that you need to take care of."

"The Taoist priest has any orders, but it's okay to say."

Everyone's eyes lit up and they responded quickly.

Zhou Jing pondered for a few seconds and asked:

"Do you know why the poor Taoist came to Ningtian Mansion?"

Everyone shook their heads, quite curious in their hearts, but they didn't dare to intervene and listened quietly.

Ye Shunzhong heard Zhou Jing mention it, and asked tentatively: "I remember what the Taoist priest said yesterday, did you come to Ningtian Mansion to find the secret?"

Zhou Jing nodded and said seriously:

"That's right, I need everyone to do it, it's related to this matter."

"What does the priest want us to do?" Ye Shunzhong asked respectfully.

Hearing this, Zhou Jing ordered the table and said slowly:

"Heavenly secrets have no form, and they are hard to find. Things arise and die, and they are all due to fate. The poor only know that the heavenly secrets will be in Ning Tianfu, but they don't know who, what, what, and when, so they can only follow the circumstances. I hope Everyone, tell the people in the city about my search for the secret, and if anyone encounters any strange things, they will come to my door and tell me, so as to be the eyes and ears of the poor, I wonder if you would like to help me with this?"

"This..."

Ye Shunzhong hesitated slightly. This is equivalent to mobilizing the whole city. The movement is not small. Even if the Ye family is powerful, it is not so easy to do it, and it will cause criticism.

He thought about it, and asked cautiously:

"I don't know what is the use of the long search for this secret... I dare to ask, I hope the long is not to blame."

Zhou Jing chuckled, and said in a serious manner: "The secret must not be leaked, the only thing I can tell you is that this matter is of great importance. If you find it, it will ensure that the world will be in good order. If something goes wrong, hehe..."

The words were ambiguous, everyone seemed to understand, but at the same time they didn't understand, they didn't understand it.

Ye Shunzhong hesitated for a while before making up his mind, nodded and said:

"The Taoist leader is reassuring. This matter is not difficult for my Ye family. I promise that the people of Ningtianfu will know what the boss wants, and then lure them with rewards. The people of Ningtianfu will be willing to be the eyes and ears of the Taoist leader."

Zhou Jing nodded in satisfaction, and drew a big cake when he opened his mouth:

"This is very good. If the poor Taoist finds the secret, you and the Ye family will also have a share of the credit for the achievements. The benefits will be indispensable. Not to mention the big ones, the most important thing is that the next three generations will have a wealth of wealth and prosperity. This is It’s the predestined relationship I mentioned yesterday, you Ye family should take good care of it.”

Hearing the words, everyone's spirits were lifted, they would rather believe it, and responded excitedly.

Tricking the Ye family to work hard to "build momentum" for him, Zhou Jing just accepted it as soon as it was good, and didn't say much more.

After the banquet, everyone insisted on sending Zhou Jing back to the wing, and then respectfully took their leave and left.

Not long after Zhou Jing stayed in the room, the steward of the Ye family came to the door and brought many precious things, all of which were gifts from the relatives of the Ye family.

Zhou Jing never refused, he took all the orders and piled them in the room at will.

At this time, he seemed to suddenly think of something, called the steward who was about to leave, and said, "I have a small matter that I need you to do."

The steward of the Ye family hurriedly bowed his head, and said with sincerity and fear, "Let's just say it."

Zhou Jing was not polite to him either, and ordered:

"Go to the pharmacy in the city, buy a few copies of all kinds of medicinal materials, and send them to me. By the way, you can buy some medical prescriptions in the world. I want to observe them."

The manager of the Ye family didn't dare to ask more questions, so he responded immediately and ordered the servants to do this.

Afterwards, the steward bid farewell to Zhou Jing, went back to find Ye Shunzhong, and reported the matter.

After Ye Shunzhong listened, he was slightly taken aback, and said to himself:

"Why does the Taoist priest need so many medicinal materials? Could it be that the Taoist priest is also proficient in medicine?"

As he thought this way, his heart suddenly moved.

Maybe, you can beg the Taoist priest to see a doctor for the old man...

Ye Shunzhong had this idea, but after thinking about it, he still didn't dare to bother the Taoist priest rashly. Right now Zhang Jinduan is still treating the old lady, so he plans to wait for the result.

If this well-known doctor in Xinglin can't do anything... Ye Shunzhong has made a decision.

…

Two days passed in a flash.

The story of Zhou Jing's coming across the river has spread throughout the city, and the servants of the Ye family also revealed the name of Lingfengzi, which became the topic of conversation among the people of Ningtianfu after dinner.

Countless people are curious about who this Lingfengzi is, but this person lives in seclusion after living in the Ye family.

At this juncture, the Ye family suddenly mobilized their servants to spread Zhou Jing's so-called search for heavenly secrets, and claimed that those who discovered the strange things would come to the door and inform them, and they would be rewarded, which caused a lot of surprise in Ning Tianfu.

The people in the city are talking about it, they don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd, and they are even more confused about the so-called "secrets" and "strange things".

When the rumors were raging outside, Zhou Jing had been staying at the Ye family to observe the changes, and by the way, use this time to practice witchcraft as soon as possible.

With practice acceleration turned on, witchcraft can be practiced quite quickly, and "basic meditation" also has a practice efficiency bonus-this is a skill that Bill has practiced witchcraft persistently during the years of placement, and the higher the meditation level The higher the practice, the faster.

Zhou Jing spends most of his time meditating, and can gain more than 10 development points in a day.

Equivalent to, it only takes ten days to get 1 witchcraft skill point, and three months to fill up the skill tree of the first level of the wind spirit witchcraft, and the progress is extremely fast.

Based on Bill's soaring magical aptitude, it is estimated that he will not encounter the bottleneck of the [Elemental Wizard] system for a long time. Right now is the fastest stage to improve his strength.

As for the time outside of practice, Zhou Jing basically used it to study medicinal materials in this world.

Ye's family owns a medicine store business, and there are quite a complete range of medicinal materials. The steward did not dare to neglect Zhou Jing's order, and took every kind of medicinal material in the inventory.

Using the item analysis function to distinguish, Zhou Jing has a clear understanding of the characteristics of many medicinal materials, even better than the doctors in this world, and the progress is rapid.

Knowing the detailed properties of medicine, and having lv8 [pharmacy] and lv9 [knowledge of herbal medicine], a lot of ideas for medicine emerged.

——Know what are the uses of various medicinal materials, then set a target effect, and finally know how to use technology combination and medicinal materials to achieve this effect, so the prescription was born naturally.

Although he has not actually used the medicinal materials of this world to make medicines, Zhou Jing has already produced many prototypes of prescriptions in his mind.

He has the basic ideas for making medicines for healing wounds and stopping bleeding, recuperating deficiencies, invigorating qi and strengthening the body, poisonous and slow poisoning, one pillar supporting the sky, and so on.

This morning.

Zhou Jing was in the yard, carefully flipping through a medical book.

Suddenly, Ye Shunzhong came to visit, walking in a hurry.

"I have met the Taoist priest. I am here to pay a special visit this time. I have something to discuss."

Zhou Jing put down his book, sat still on the chair, looked at Ye Shunzhong who walked into the yard, and asked:

"Ye Layman, I don't know why you are looking for me?"

Ye Shunzhong saluted respectfully and said:

"I shouldn't bother the Taoist priest, but my grandfather is seriously ill. His condition has deteriorated recently, and Doctor Zhang is helpless. I heard that the family steward often sends medicinal materials to the Taoist priest recently. Could it be that the Taoist priest is proficient in medical skills?"

"Slightly understand slightly."

Zhou Jing responded casually, and understood what was going on

It seems that the famous doctor Zhang Jinduan did not cure Grandpa Ye. But recently, he had asked for a lot of medicinal materials to make others misunderstand, so Ye Shunzhong could only come to make his own idea and try his luck.

Hearing this, Ye Shunzhong was overjoyed and was about to speak.

But Zhou Jing interrupted him and added:

"However, I have lived in the mountains for a long time, and I have never seen people, and I have no chance of diagnosis and treatment. I am afraid that I am a little unfamiliar. Moreover, I have only dabbled in the way of medicine, and what Pindao is really proficient in is the way of alchemy."

"Alchemy?"

Ye Shunzhong was taken aback, this answer surprised him.

Taoists have the theory of alchemy, which can lead to immortality and lift the clouds to the sky. It is said to be miraculous, but in fact no one has proved it.

In fact, many fake Taoist priests use the name of alchemy to bluff and deceive, so the word "alchemy" is often linked to deception, and the reputation is not very good. Even if they are true Taoists, not many people say that they know how to make alchemy.

But Ye Shunzhong was very convinced of Zhou Jing. Although he was muttering in his heart, he didn't doubt whether it was true or not. He simply bowed down and begged:

"Master Daoist, my grandpa is in danger, please help."

He really has no choice but to use his dead horse as a living horse doctor.

Seeing this, Zhou Jing stood up and sighed:

"Since you came to ask for help, I'll go and see if it can be done, I don't know right now."

Ye Shunzhong was overjoyed, got up quickly, and took Zhou Jing all the way to the backyard mansion, to Grandpa Ye's room.

As soon as Zhou Jing entered the door, he smelled a strong smell of medicine.

Zhang Jinduan was also in the house, seeing Ye Shunzhong coming, he looked ashamed and said helplessly:

"The old man is unable to return to heaven, and he really has a heavy trust."

Ye Shunzhong couldn't blame others either, he sighed, then pointed Zhou Jing with his hand, and explained: "Doctor Zhang has done his best, so there's no need to do that. Daoist Lingfengzi also knows some medical skills. I'll invite him to take a look. Hope to find something."

Hearing this, Zhang Jinduan hurriedly saluted Zhou Jing, and then said curiously:

"It turns out that the Taoist master is also good at medicine, but unfortunately, the old man has been busy treating diseases these days, so he has not been able to have a deep discussion with the Taoist priest. I don't know what kind of medical skills the master is good at?"

"I am good at alchemy."

"Alchemy, alchemy..."

Zhang Jinduan was dumbfounded.

As a famous doctor, how can he not know that alchemy is a scam that hurts people, but from Zhou Jing who really has supernatural powers, he doesn't know how to respond.

Scorn is definitely not dared.

But to make him believe that... that is no different from talking nonsense with open eyes, and it is an insult to medical skills.

Zhou Jing waved his hand, changed the topic, and asked first: "Doctor Zhang, what did you find out?"

Zhang Jinduan came back to his senses, no doubt about him, and hurriedly explained it.

'Without diagnosis and treatment of the lesion, no matter how you check it, it seems to be the end of life? ’

Zhou Jing looked at the old man Ye's skinny and dark face, and found it hard to believe the diagnosis.

He stepped forward a few steps, intending to test his own pulse.

Woo...

However, as they got closer, a burst of cold air suddenly hit.

Zhou Jing frowned, and quietly exerted his perception, and found that Mrs. Ye exuded an invisible aura that made him feel uncomfortable. It was cold and damp, like rotten mud.

He looked back and found that no one else in the room was aware of it.

"...a bit interesting."

Zhou Jing suddenly became interested.

He thought that Grandpa Ye was just suffering from some intractable disease, but now he realizes that things are not that simple.

Zhou Jing looked at Taigong Ye carefully, but he couldn't see any tricks, but the cold aura in his perception could not be faked.

"Isn't it the feedback of the five senses...is it the spiritual sense?"

Zhou Jing's heart moved, and with the attitude of giving it a try, he switched to the elemental vision.

The next moment, colorful elemental particles appeared in the world in his eyes.

As far as he could see, a cloud of black air wrapped around the body of Grandpa Ye, like a cloud of sludge, still wriggling unconsciously.

'This... what is it? ’

Zhou Jing was startled.

This is also the first time he has encountered such a situation.

This cloud of black gas obviously did not look like elemental particles, and it was the first time he used the elemental vision to see other unknown things.

'Probably this is Ye Taigong's focus. ’

Zhou Jing frowned slightly, not sure what was going on with this cloud of black air. After thinking about it, he used his mental power to conjure the wind element, and touched it carefully.

The next moment, he suddenly felt a burst of mental feedback.

During the spiritual contact, negative emotions such as resentment and hatred came from this cloud of black air, but they seemed to be unconscious things.

At the same time, the cloud of black air was poked by his mental power, as if being pulled, a strand of black air came to attack him.

'Want to touch me? ’

A green light flashed in Zhou Jing's eyes, and the wind element, which contained spiritual power, directly rushed forward, shattering and obliterating the incoming wisp of black air without any effort.

The large cloud of black air has no response, and it seems that it will only automatically infect the objects it touches with mental power.

'I'm afraid this is an unknown hidden side of this world... Perhaps this black air, like the spirit of nature, is a unique non-material existence? ’

Zhou Jing realized something.

At this time, Ye Shunzhong saw Zhou Jing standing motionless in front of the bed, and he couldn't help asking in surprise, "Daoist, what did you find?"

When Zhou Jing heard the words, he looked back at him with a subtle tone:

"You are lucky, Pindao can really cure him."

Ye Shunzhong was taken aback for a moment, then he was very pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly asked: "Master, what disease does my grandpa have?"

Zhou Jing shook his head, and said carefully:

"This may not be a disease... In my opinion, he may be infected with evil spirits."

"Evil?"

Ye Shunzhong and Zhang Jinduan froze on the spot at the same time.

…

At the same time, outside another tall mansion in Ningtian Mansion.

Across the street, the old Taoist and the young man looked at the high courtyard walls and the gate guarded by the guards of the mansion with complicated expressions.

The boy blinked his eyes and turned to look at the old man:

"Master, are you sure this is where the hope-seeking technique found?"

The old Taoist sighed: "There is no mistake, the demon Taoist is in this house at this moment."

The young man swallowed a mouthful of saliva and stammered, "Master, shall we visit the door, sneak in, or just call in?"

The old Taoist glanced at him like he was looking at a fool, and said in a bad mood: "You have lived enough and I haven't lived enough. Visiting at the door is mostly self-inflicted. If you sneak in, it is too easy to be discovered by the monster. It is even worse if you hit the door. Now, you will be your master, I am the one in the Luhe area urging Yan Luo to fail? I don’t have that kind of ability!”

"Then, what should we do?"

"Cold salad! Go back to the inn to sleep!"

The old man turned his head and left~IndoMTL.com~ The young man hurriedly followed, after a while, he couldn't help asking: "Master, do we not care about this evil way?"

The old Taoist sighed, and explained helplessly: "The demon Taoist probably bewitched the gentry and got shelter. I am alone and alone, and you are a troublemaker. For the time being, I can't do anything about him. I can only make long-term plans and wait. It's time."

"...Master, I'm not an oil bottle, I think your evaluation of me is biased."

"Have you gotten started with Qingling Xiandun? Have you understood the Golden Light Evil-Repelling Talisman? Do you know how to trace Qi? Can you open psychic eyes? Tell me about it yourself, I taught you It’s been a few years, and if you are of some use, it’s not as if you’re useless.”

"Oh..."

The old Taoist scolded the young man while joining him in the crowd.
