Under the supervision of the little fox demon, Su Rui carefully took the gold foil out of the fire.
Afterwards, the man and the demon stopped eating the stewed chicken and huddled together to read the "Art of Taming Ghosts" written in gold foil.
Although Heshan Dao is not a mainstream sect, it is the ninth-ranked Daoist art among the 300 side-door Daoist arts of Heshan Dao. Even if the little fox demon has the bloodline of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, who would mind mastering one more powerful spell?
Su Rui is even more of an ordinary person. Although he is lucky enough to deduce a powerful eye technique through the Dragon Map and Bagua, this does not change the fact that he is still an ordinary person!
If one can master the two unorthodox techniques of Heshan Dao, at the very least, he can be considered a half-cultivator!
The only thing that made Su Rui feel a little disgusted was that this thing dealt with the dead. Even if it was successfully refined, the person would become gloomy and eerie. It was obvious that this was not a serious way!
After finishing reading "The Art of Taming Ghosts", Su Rui asked Xiao Tu to work two jobs at the same time, recording "The Art of Taming Ghosts" and slowly deducing it.
After discussing the ownership of the gold foil with the little fox demon, Su Rui finally split it in half with a knife after making two copies of the complete technique. In the end, the man and the demon each held a copy of the complete technique and a copy of the gold foil containing only half of the technique.
Time flies and it is almost the hour of Chou.
After the profits were divided, Su Rui could no longer hold on and went back to the inner courtyard to sleep, while the remaining little fox demon finished up in the kitchen.
The little fox demon was quite excited after obtaining the "Ghost Taming Technique". After Su Rui left, she called out the girl whom she called "Sister Sun" from the ochre beads.
This time, after being called out, the girl didn't frown. Instead, she twitched her delicate nose and asked, "Xiao Ling'er, what did you cook just now? Why does it smell so fragrant?"
"Uh... according to that human child, the dish we just cooked is called Chicken Stewed with Mushrooms. It's so delicious..." It licked its lips as it spoke, then pointed at the iron pot and said, "There's more here. Sister Sun, do you want to try some?"
"Then try it!" the girl said reluctantly.
The little fox demon thought that Sister Sun would definitely not agree to eat because of her luxurious life, but she didn't expect that she would actually agree, and she couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
But it quickly covered it up. It quickly took out the clean dishes and served a bowl of rice to Sister Sun.
"Sister Sun, I got a Heshan Dao Ghost Controlling Technique today. Do you think I can practice it?"
While the girl was drinking soup, the little fox demon asked timidly.
"That little, side sect of Heshan Dao isn't even that great. Even their so-called 'Longevity Technique,' which is considered the best of the 300 side sects, isn't some truly remarkable sorcery. It's just some shady trick of using someone else's body for someone else's. If you have time to practice sorcery, you might as well spend more time cultivating your Heavenly Fox bloodline and ascend to Heavenly Fox status soon!"
The girl spoke eloquently, and every word she said revealed her deep contempt for Heshan's Taoism.
The little fox demon didn't dare to refute, but just mentioned in passing: "I just got this 'Ghost Controlling Technique' together with that human child. If he practices it, will there be any problems?"
The girl paused in her soup, glanced sideways at the little fox demon, and said, "He's just an ordinary mortal. Without practicing Taoism and cultivating true qi, he can't practice that evil technique! Unless he can break through to the Xiantian realm of martial arts and cultivate true qi, this will only do him harm!"
"You know the story of the one who possessed the treasure and was therefore guilty? He had no power, but he possessed some evil magic. Even if it was just a low-level one, if those rotten people and demons got to know about it, he would definitely not have a good end!"
"However, since we are borrowing the Su family's land to live today, I'm looking for an opportunity for you to tell him what I just said. This will be considered as a reluctant end to this cause and effect!"
The little fox demon nodded when he heard this: "Sister Sun, I understand!"
…
On the second day, after Su Rui finished refining the solar essence, he arranged for his servants to set up several incense burners for him to practice swordsmanship.
It is at this moment.
Suddenly, a powerful voice came from the front yard of the county government office, shaking the tiles on the roof of the entire government office.
"I've long heard that the Ape Sword Immortal lives in a remote corner of the southwest, becoming a lackey of the imperial court. I wonder if his sheathed sword is still sharp enough to fight me."
Now, the whole yamen became lively!
Although most of them didn't know who the Ape Sword Immortal was, they realized the seriousness of the matter. Someone from the martial arts world actually dared to cause trouble at the county government office! Was this because they were worried that the imperial court's butcher knife wasn't sharp enough?
Su Rui's heart skipped a beat. He had always thought that County Magistrate Su's nickname "Ape Sword Immortal" was self-proclaimed, but he didn't expect that he was actually famous.
He stopped practicing swordplay and hurriedly grabbed a blowgun dart spiked with snake venom, poison, and a wooden sword, then rushed out of the inner courtyard.
When he arrived at the front yard of the county government office, he saw County Magistrate Su in casual clothes, holding a long sword, and confronting an evil monk holding a scimitar.
"No. 1 on the Earth List, the Blood-Knife Demon Monk?" County Magistrate Su asked first.
"It's me! Are you the Ape Sword Immortal?" the Blood Knife Demon Monk asked back.
"It's been a while since I've heard anyone call me by this name. I really miss those days..." County Magistrate Su said with emotion.
"Ape Sword Immortal, I've long heard that your swordsmanship is unparalleled, and that no one can defeat you within three rounds of your swordsmanship. Today, I'm here to meet you! And I'm here to avenge the sword strike on my master!"
"Who is your master... Never mind, it's not important. I killed too many people like you back then, I might not be able to remember!" County Magistrate Su looked at him with disdain and pretended to be cool.
"Ape Sword Immortal, you are looking for death!!" The Blood Knife Demon Monk was furious, and the willow-leaf long sword in his hand turned into a streak of silver light and chopped down at County Magistrate Su's head.
