Chapter 212: The first day Xixi didn't come to the restaurant, I missed her, and I was afraid of the strange temple of Guanghan Fairy in Qionglou
The night was hazy, but a dim candle light was trying its best to reflect light in the darkness.
The whole alley was quiet.
It was so quiet that it was almost serene. The sound of the spring rain dropping on the black tiles sounded like thunder.
It was so quiet that the cool breeze blew through the spring rain, and the sound of raindrops colliding with each other sounded like a symphony of war.
Li Che's black shirt was stained with rain, and the spring rain seemed to be getting heavier.
However, the rain curtain that was gradually getting heavy and covering the world was unable to block the dim light reflected from the restaurant.
The familiar big black dog was lying on the ground, its hair was shiny black, and it was obvious that it had been eating very well recently.
He was baring his teeth at Li Che with an anthropomorphic smile on his face.
Li Che looked at the big black dog in silence.
A chill rose up from under the soles of his feet and instantly spread throughout his body, making every pore on his body open up and seem to be emitting cool air.
This big black dog...
How could it appear in Daocheng?! If Li Che saw this dog in Jinguangfu City, he would not be surprised, but this is Daocheng...
Has the restaurant moved here as well?
Li Che frowned, and too many doubts rose up in his heart like a thick fog, intertwining and entangled.
other side……
Following him on purpose? Li Che couldn't help but have such a thought in his mind.
But when I think about it this way, I feel a little conceited.
After all, the world is so big, where people want to go...what does it have to do with him? It is impossible that if he, Li Che, comes to Daocheng, the boss and the big black dog will not come to Daocheng, right? Originally, Li Che noticed that this restaurant was different.
When he was in Jinguan Mansion, Li Che thought that the other party appeared because of the strange temple of the Four Imperial Guards and the Eight-Armed Hell Lotus and the Angry Third Prince.
He was guarding and staring at that strange temple.
Now it seems...
The judgment was wrong.
Li Che regained his composure and stared at the big black dog with serious eyes. The big black dog grinned at him, but seemed not to have waited for Li Che's reaction. It rolled its eyes and lay down again.
Boring person.
Li Che seemed to have read this idea from the big black dog's reaction.
Exhale and tear apart the spring raindrops.
Li Che finally took a step forward and walked towards the restaurant.
Same layout, same door and dog.
Li Che pushed open the door, and the curtain hit the copper bell hanging at the door, which immediately made a tinkling sound.
Li Che walked into the restaurant. There were some changes inside, and it seemed to be more spacious.
But, there are not many big ones.
Li Che's blood and energy rolled like a dragon, as if a furnace was burning inside his body, shaking off the spring rain all over his body and evaporating it into water vapor.
I walked into the restaurant fresh and clean, and found a chair to sit down.
The boss in white clothes walked out of the house, with black hair hanging down and a cold and indifferent look on his face.
Seeing Li Che, he nodded, as if he was a familiar old customer: "Are you here?"
Li Che looked at the young man in white, and then replied: "Here I come."
Outside the restaurant, the spring rain was heavy, crashing down, making the bluestone slabs of the alley shiny and reflecting the lights.
Water vapor accompanies the spring rain, whistling in, and the air is filled with the scent of spring.
Inside the restaurant, the curtains fluttered gently in the breeze.
"What to eat?"
The boss in white took off the apron hanging on the wall, put it on, and asked Li Che softly.
"have no idea."
"Boss, take care of it."
Sitting on the chair, Li Che leaned against the backrest and relaxed.
Don’t say…
When I got to the restaurant, it really felt like I was home.
Li Che felt a special kind of relaxation, as if all his tense nerves were released.
After arriving in Daocheng, Li Che was actually quite nervous, even though he had many trump cards in hand and the instant teleportation of the Flying Thunder Chess Master.
But the pressure is still great, because there are still big differences between Daocheng and Fucheng.
There are too many strong people, and there are too many people who covet Xixi with bad intentions.
That Su Huaili must have informed You Liqing and other powerful people from Ji Moli's lineage about the bet between Xixi and Ji Haihui.
Ji Moli was You Liqing's master, so You Liqing naturally could not tolerate his master's bloodline being treated as slaves.
So, he will definitely target Xixi.
Of course, this was because Li Che thought of the worst.
But when you are in a strange place, you are walking on thin ice. You naturally cannot expect the best of everything, and you cannot underestimate the evil and ugliness of human nature.
In addition, there is the Demon Child of the Corpse God Cult, who has also set his sights on Xixi, and is determined to make Xixi his future wife.
He set his sights on Li Che's daughter and began to train his wife since she was a child...
Bah! I get angry just thinking about it.
Leaning back in his chair, Li Che let out a breath.
However, in this restaurant, there is an inexplicable sense of peace.
Although the origin of this restaurant is unknown and everything about it is mysterious, Li Che enjoys the feeling of security.
Inside the chest cavity, the five Dao fruits were as quiet as virgins, without any warning pulses of danger.
It is enough to say that the restaurant is safe.
Li Che still believed in Daoguo very much, and he could sense any malicious intent.
If the other party can even deceive Daoguo.
Li Che's resistance would not have made much of a splash.
It's better to save your energy and eat a few more meals in the restaurant, after all...
The boss's cooking skills are really good! The aroma is lingering, as if it has turned into substantial smoke floating out of the kitchen. Although it is just a simple noodle aroma, it penetrates the heart and transforms into many unforgettable flavors.
It seemed to bring back childhood memories, making Li Che recall scenes from his previous life.
It was a long-ago scene buried in memory.
Tall buildings, busy traffic...
The hustle and bustle of the world is like the moon in the water, the flower in the mirror, like a dream.
It's much safer than this world.
Eyelids drooped slightly.
Inside the restaurant, the boss came out holding a bowl of noodles.
"I made a simple bowl of noodles, just eat it."
The boss in white placed the noodles in front of Li Che.
The soup is clear and crisp, the noodles are like dragon whiskers, and there is a perfectly fried, fragrant poached egg with emerald-like chopped green onions.
The onlookers were salivating with anticipation, and the rising hot air made Li Che unable to take his eyes away.
The boss in white took off his apron and sat opposite Li Che.
Looking at Li Che who was eating with great appetite.
The corners of his lips raised in an imperceptible arc.
He took out the rolling paper and pinched some tobacco from the sachet, gently rolled it into a long and thin cigarette, and tapped it lightly on the table.
Then, he held it in the corner of his mouth and lit it with a match.
"hiss--"
"call--"
The smoke rises and I feel drunk and hazy.
"Xixi is not here, so you just make do with it." The boss said softly.
Li Che paused and suddenly felt that the noodles in the bowl were no longer fragrant.
When Xixi came, he was served braised pork, sweet and sour fish, and wine-soaked fish, but when Li Che came, he was only given a bowl of clear soup noodles? How could they be treated differently like this?!
Although Xixi is cute, she is still his, Li Che's daughter.
Can't he, Li Che, even get a little bit of his daughter's glory? "What? Can't make do? Then don't eat it."
The boss squinted his eyes, exhaled smoke, and said.
Li Che did not reply, but ate the noodles faster. He finished all the noodles in just a few chopsticks and drank up all the soup.
“Huha~”
Li Che put the bowl down, leaned back in his chair, and exhaled a breath of hot air comfortably.
Comfortable.
Looking at the boss smoking a cigarette, Li Che narrowed his eyes.
"How about one?"
Li Che said.
The boss held the cigarette between two fingers, glanced at Li Che, thought for a moment, and then delicately rolled a cigarette for Li Che and handed it to him.
"Just one."
A cigarette after dinner makes you feel as happy as a god.
Outside the restaurant.
The big black dog looked at the two people smoking and immediately covered his nose in disgust.
It lay on the ground, looking at the hazy night created by the heavy spring rain.
The first day Xixi didn’t come to the restaurant, I missed her.
…
…
The next day, dawn.
Leaden clouds rolled over the sky, brewing spring rain.
Individual raindrops fell from the sky, hit my cheeks, exploded into water splashes, and made my skin feel the cool spring breeze.
The willows are swaying gently, and the catkins are fluttering.
After Li Che got up, he used the flying thunder chess piece to move directly to the independent workshop scattered in the courtyard of Tinglei Lane in the outer city.
He checked to see if the clones of [Fairy in the Painting] were slacking off, and then practiced martial arts, circulated his qi and blood, and condensed his divine power.
When you wake up early in the morning, you are full of energy and spirit. Your internal organs have recovered from slumber and are in excellent condition. This is a great time to temper yourself.
After some tempering, Li Che's number of divine powers reached seven.
Of course, when the Wanhua Dragon Elephant Divine Power reaches seven, the Wanlong Fushen and Hunyuan Qitian Divine Power are naturally less than the earliest Wanhua Dragon Elephant.
If we talk about the three kinds of divine power combined into one, Li Che now barely has only one three-yuan divine power.
The scorching heat wave meandered like a dragon, raging in the yard.
Li Che's skin turned red, and every pore was dilated, raging with heat waves.
His eyes were as fast as lightning, and his five fingers struck the void.
Li Che stood in the courtyard, and the black gold eight-treasure thunder dragon stick in his hand was pointed out, causing waves in the air.
The brow center glowed, the soul opened its eyes, the divine light flowed, and quickly moved through the tendons of the flesh, feeling the tendons and bones becoming stronger and stronger, and the bones seemed to be emitting brilliant golden light! The peristalsis and strengthening of the internal organs appeared in the mind bit by bit.
Among them, the transformation of the heart, lungs and kidneys is extremely drastic!
Refine out the majestic essence, rolling like the tide of a mighty river!
Feeling the incomparable growth and prosperity, Li Che couldn't help but let out a long roar! As loud as a dragon!
As fierce as a tiger!
Li Che seemed to have sensed something, his eyes shone like golden light, he took a step forward, his whole body was filled with vigorous energy, the void seemed to be pierced through.
The figure instantly flew into the air, flashing a distance of three or four feet, and continuously changing direction, until four times! And the fifth time, it was almost formed, countless afterimages kept overlapping, and finally disappeared without a trace.
Li Che stood in the yard.
He stood with his hands behind his back, his black shirt fluttering.
仰起头,吐出一口浊气:“快了,凌虚八祁步,马上就要踏足大师之境了。”
“因为我掌握了大师境的万化龙象、万龙伏神和混元齐天棍,三门武圣绝学,继而再去修炼武圣绝学,反而会少了许多的难点,有种势如破竹的感觉。”
“这便是武学之间彼此的共通吧。”
李澈心情大好。
因为他明白,剩下的两门武圣绝学,踏足大师层次,凝练武圣真意,熬炼出神罡,只是时间问题。
换上干净的衣裳,李澈出了院子,锁好门后,顺着巷弄而行。
来到了餐馆中,老板正在包饺子。
“哟豁,老板你亲手包的饺子啊?”
“给曦曦的。”
老板瞥了李澈一眼,淡淡道。
“等着。”
随后白衣老板起身,入了厨房,开始煮饺子。
片刻后,才是将煮好的饺子打包好,递给了李澈。
李澈笑了笑,谢过老板,熟稔的留下一枚金叶子后,就转身离去,出了巷弄,直接动用飞雷棋子,回到了留香巷的大院中。
曦曦正蹲在屋檐下,跟着老陈一起刷牙。
那是李澈给他们制作的牙刷。
李澈一回来,曦曦鼻子立刻开始耸动,嘴角还沾染着泡沫,仰起头,眼睛亮亮:“爹爹,好熟悉的味道!”
“狗狗也来了吗?!”
曦曦一下子就猜到这菜品来自哪里了。
但是,她的关注重点却是那只好吃懒做的大黑狗。
老板精心准备包的饺子都没有敌得过狗子的诱惑。
“你好好练功,等你成为了宗主大神的亲传弟子,爹爹就带你去老板店里吃,去见狗子。”
李澈放下了饺子早餐,揉了揉曦曦的脑袋,道。
曦曦闻言,眼眸中顿时迸发出了无比强烈的斗志!为了去看狗子,一定要成为宗主大神的亲传弟子!小孩子的斗志就是来的如此莫名其妙。
吃过早餐,李澈便又指点曦曦、张雅和老陈他们,在院子中练武。
指点一会儿后,李青山才是睡醒,伸了个懒腰后,就被李澈抓来帮工。
李澈也没客气,可把李青山给气坏了。
看着摆手离去的李澈,李青山便明白李澈又要自己去玩耍,不带猫脸!
李青山已经打听到了。
最近乾元道城的外城,发生了诸多凶杀案。
不少二三流的帮派被屠尽,而那些被屠杀的帮派成员,居然都是尸神教的邪人!
李青山几乎是第一时间就猜到是谁做的了。
无愧是牛魔,一如既往的嫉恶如仇的作风。
李青山苦笑着摇了摇头。
“老夫也该加把劲了,踏足大宗师……便能跟上大部队的步伐了!”
李青山斗志亦是燃烧了起来。
他的八蛟翻江,马上就要达到大师级别,一旦凝练出宗师真意,便可冲击大宗师了。
到时候,就可以跟神宗兑换顶级的武圣绝学《八部天龙擎天锤》!他猫脸……
将不再是地府吊车尾!……
……
李澈换上了那件钦天监二等客卿的袍服。
来到了横跨城中大河的白玉拱桥下的八宝重檐钦天监宝楼。
上官青虹已经在桑榆的带领下,熟悉了钦天监的业务,所以,桑榆便当上了甩手掌柜,把事情都扔给了上官青虹。
在一6一9一书一吧一看无一错版本!
一层大厅,宽广无比,上官青虹正拿着清洁神符,用神性催动,清理着大厅中的尘灰,让那些摆好的货物,不染尘埃。
与上官青虹一起的,还有其他几位刚入钦天监的执事。
钦天监按照职务高低划分,分别是监正、监副、少监、钦天丞和执事。
上官青虹在金光府钦天监,已经混到了钦天丞的职位。
但到了道城,就只能重新归为执事了。
而李澈二等客卿的身份,在道城钦天监,却是能够媲美少监。
“澈哥!”
上官青虹看到李澈,顿时兴奋的招手。
与她一起做卫生的执事们,都是好奇的看了过来,便看到李澈身上的二等客卿袍服,惊讶不已。
李澈跟上官青虹招了招手,两人相互聊了会儿。
“你去帮我喊一下陆垚监副。”
李澈笑着说道。
上官青虹闻言,立刻前往,蹬蹬蹬的就上楼去了。
片刻后,陆垚便与上官青虹下楼,身边跟着气息膨胀许多的唐仁。
“突破了?”
李澈看了眼唐仁,稍显惊讶。
“对啊,不突破留着干啥?金光府庙神共鸣都结束了,他也该突破了,正好准备看看能否走狗屎运被宗主大神收为亲传。”
陆垚嗤笑一声,道。
很显然,陆垚对唐仁在庙神共鸣大会上颗粒无收很是有怨念。
李澈笑了笑,不再说什么。
心中倒是上了点心,争取让曦曦也寻个机会突破。
而且曦曦若是能够铸就神基的话,在接下来的宗主亲传的考核中,也能更有竞争力些。
虽然说,焦少秋说宗主亲传的考核,并不会太过看修为与战力,更看一个缘分。
但是,谁信啊?
实力能强些,总是底气会足上不少。
李澈也没有磨蹭,告知了陆垚自己的目的。
“你想要去诡异庙观庙神?”
“倒也是,听说你想要冲击神雕岭的长老考核?的确需要多观庙神以提高木雕水准。”
陆垚点了点头。
“道城跟金光府城不一样,客卿们的数量也极多,经常会主持到庙神之中观庙神。”
“你若是要去,我这便给你安排。”
“你是二等客卿,最高可入六司诡异庙,但是鉴于你的修为着实低了些,所以,只能去七元诡异庙……”
陆垚笑着说道。
在道城,六司诡异庙总共有十座,七元与八极诡异庙就更多了。
不过,都在镇庙司的统辖之下,普通人根本无法轻易的涉足诡异庙。
哪怕是修为有成的江湖人,也无法轻易踏足,需要经过申请。
李澈眸光闪烁了一番,他惊之神基中招神的火眼玄惊灵猿庙神,乃是八极位阶的庙神。
七元诡异庙,倒也够用了。
太高的六司诡异庙,李澈也不敢轻易动用招神……
而且,六司诡异庙的危险性远超其他,像是焦少秋,这位神宗的外门大长老,就是在闯荡一座六司诡异庙的时候,遭受重创。
破碎了元神金身,从神元金身蜕,跌落到了元神蜕的境界。
所以,为了稳健起见,李澈甚至可以申请八极诡异庙。
但想想还是算了,七元诡异庙先试试水。
“七元诡异庙……”
陆垚思忱片刻。
随后给李澈罗列了几座道城内的七元诡异庙。
“就这座吧……【百转忧梦桂灵兔】诡异庙。”
“哦?”
“这座诡异庙在云家管辖范围之内,云家乃道城千年世家,云娥便是来自这座庞然大物。”
陆垚点了点头。
随后陆垚便带着李澈前往钦天监楼阁之上。
只等待了不到半个时辰,就凑齐了五位钦天监的客卿,其中一位二等客卿,四位三等客卿,加上李澈,便是六人。
“人数够了,我等便出发吧。”
桑榆又被拉过来了。
陆垚有事,便让桑榆来帮忙。
桑榆还有一个身份,乃是桑观音的弟弟,桑观音从道城跟随南离火到金光府城修炼。
论及天赋,桑观音真不及她这个弟弟。
但是,桑榆是个十足的听姐姐话的弟弟,因此对于李澈这位自家亲姐宝贝小师妹的父亲,还是很客气的。
“百转忧梦桂灵兔诡异庙,其实同神性的还有一座六司级别的,亦是在云家管辖镇压之中。”
“好像叫做……【欲恐琼楼广寒仙】诡异庙,云家千年以来,一直在研究这座诡异庙。”
“云家能够崛起……与当年他们云家出了一位与【欲恐琼楼广寒仙】这座诡异庙的庙神共鸣度高达九成九有关。”
“正是这位先祖,才有了如今的乾元道城千年世家云家,以及云家那位神胎老祖。”
桑榆与李澈同乘车辇,笑着介绍道。
李澈眸光微微波动,想到了云娥体内藏着的那尊恐怖的庙神……
便是默不作声了下来。
春雨磅礴,车辇破风而走。
轮毂高速转动,甩动起了水花四溅。
很快,车辇停泊,一行人便来到了一座诡异庙之前。
镇庙司、云家的高手坐镇在外,拉开了警戒线,封锁了进入诡异庙范围内的任何路径。
这座诡异庙坐落在城内,周围迷蒙着翻腾的诡雾,时不时的可以感知到,诡雾之中有面容若隐若现。
呼啸、鬼哭、嘶鸣……
各种各样的声音,环绕不休,摄人心魄。
只是刚刚靠近而已,就让人有种强烈的眩晕之感,欲要堕入沉眠一般。
“钦天监特使,带钦天监客卿们前来观庙神。”
桑榆下车后,便有镇庙司的神差们拦阻。
远处闲亭之中。
两道身影对坐。
一道身影镇庙司大督司袍服,气息极其强大,好似与天地交融于一起,且周身元神绚烂,无比可怕。
桑榆抱拳作揖,高声开口。
此人乃道城镇庙司的大督司武刚,修为强绝,乃天人合一的先天大宗师。
He not only presides over the Seven Yuan Strange Temple of [Bai Zhuan You Meng Gui Ling Rabbit], but also presides over the Six Si Strange Temple of [Yu Kong Qiong Lou Guang Han Xian].
In fact, every strange temple of the Six Departments is guarded by a great master-level expert who has achieved the unity of man and nature.
There is no way. If a riot breaks out in this strange temple of Liusi, it will be too dangerous.
As for the stronger ones, they have to sit in the strange temple of the Five Elders and the Four Emperors.
Next to Wu Gang was an old man in fluttering robes. His spirit was extremely powerful. Just one look at him made Li Che feel oppressed.
On the way, Sang Yu introduced Li Che that this old man was the elder of the Yun family who was in charge of the strange temple, and was the golden body immortal who had transformed into a golden body, Yun Taishan.
The powerful soul scanned the carriage, investigating the six guest officials from the Imperial Observatory.
After scanning it three or four times in a row, they agreed to let it go.
The inspection is very strict, but since it involves a strange temple, there is no problem with a stricter inspection.
"Go in. You only have three hours to visit the temple gods. Once the time is up... you will be expelled."
Sang Yu said.
The six guests of the Imperial Observatory took steps one after another, passing through the torn strange mist of the strange palace. Along the way, they seemed to be able to hear the roars of strange creatures and monsters coming from the strange palace! A small temple was located, which was quite dilapidated. You could even see spider webs woven in the corners of the wall, with dead spiders hanging on them.
Li Che glanced and his eyes fell on the temple god on the altar.
It was a temple god with a rabbit head and a human body.
It has a white rabbit head, but underneath is the figure of a woman wearing a simple dress.
Quite strange.
The eyes of the rabbit temple god are extremely red. Although it is a sculpture, it seems extremely spiritual. Anyone who looks into the rabbit's eyes will feel their heart sink.
One after another, big fat rabbits jumped out from the body of the rabbit temple god, filling the entire strange temple.
Then, they seemed to have swallowed up their bodies, and the big fat rabbits kept moving their mouths, gnawing at everything, whether it was the ground, the pillars, or their flesh and blood...
Li Che raised his hand and touched his forehead.
Star-picking pupils! The golden light spread out in ripples.
Everything returns to clarity and brightness, and the truth is revealed!
Illusions, dreams...
The divinity of the temple god is extremely strong, filling every corner of the strange temple.
Looking at the other colleagues, the second-class guest official had already broken free from the dream, and he looked at Li Che with some surprise.
This second-class guest official was a cultivator at the Yuanxiang realm, and he had to sacrifice his divine appearance to get away with it with great difficulty. It seemed that he had not expected that Li Che, a small cultivator at the Shenji realm, was actually on the same level as him.
Li Che smiled and nodded, then found a corner and sat cross-legged.
I began to observe the Rabbit Temple God. Through the Dao Fruit of [Immortal Craftsmanship], I was able to strip away all the carving techniques of this temple god sculpture, and then simulated and reproduced the carving in my mind.
Three hours passed quickly.
“Tsk——!!!”
A sound like thunder came from outside the strange temple.
Wake up the monks who are still trapped in the dream.
There was a third-class guest official who had been dreaming since he entered the temple. He dreamed that he was being eaten by rabbits over and over again. He was sweating profusely and his face was pale.
Li Che stood up, stretched, and then took a deep look at the temple god rabbit on the altar.
With a flick of his finger, a flying thunder chess piece suddenly bounced silently and fell under the altar.
Li Che did not stay long and left this strange temple with others.
The spring rain is still drizzling.
In the pavilion.
Si Wugang, the chief inspector of the Temple Guarding Department, and Yun Taishan, the elder of the Yun family, sat opposite each other and drank tea.
"Nothing unusual, right?"
"Probably not."
The two nodded and smiled at each other, but their smiles contained vigilance and caution.
…
…
It's late at night and everyone is asleep.
The heavy rain hit the black tiles, creating a mist that blurred the vision.
Leaden clouds rolled in and spring thunder rumbled.
The reflected lightning made Li Che slowly open his eyes in the courtyard of the independent workshop in Tinglei Lane.
The water drops splashing from the edge of the black tile roof formed a curtain.
Li Che sat cross-legged, bathing in the high-speed falling raindrops, which exploded and then blew up in all directions.
Li Che's eyes were clear and bright.
The spot between the eyebrows is glowing slightly.
On top of the pure mind base that is integrated with the divine law "The Law of the True Ape in the Law of Heaven and Earth", there is golden divinity, which is constantly being integrated into the divine base from the "Face of Heaven" in the chessboard of heaven and earth.
Outline the shape of a real ape.
Now, about 90% of the progress has been completed.
“Soon.”
Li Che let out a breath.
I can't help but look forward to seeing how powerful the divine form condensed by the Three Purities method will be.
"It's a pity that I didn't succeed in condensing it all at once. Otherwise, I could have tried the True Ape Stick Technique with the little rabbit tonight."
Li Che raised his five stretched fingers.
The next moment, he clenched it violently.
The surging airflow seemed to be torn apart by the suddenly retracted five fingers.
Wait until you have a complete grasp of the Flying Thunder chess piece.
Li Che's black shirt fluttered and his black hair rolled wildly.
It has already appeared in the strange temple of [Bai Zhuan You Meng Gui Ling Rabbit].
Li Che looked at the temple god with a smile, and a faint light flickered in his eyes.
Li Che even couldn't help but hum a little tune in joy.
"Little bunny, open the door..."
On the altar.
The Rabbit Temple God suddenly trembled in fear.
