Chapter 86: Reincarnation
Inside the Third Department of the Ministry of War, eight Taoists and a group of people in the modern Ming style stood together, seemingly discussing something.
"Wandering spirits never appear in large numbers unless someone is controlling them, or there really is a ghost town nearby and the ghosts inside escape for some special reason."
Daoyi opened his mouth and said that he was one of the eight people dug out from the underground of Qingshou Temple by Lin Qingsheng, and he lived in the early Ming Dynasty.
It was not known whether the black-robed prime minister was too lazy to name them or for some other reason, but the names of these eight Taoists were Daoyi to Daoba.
"So..." Daoyi paused here.
Dao Er took over the conversation and said, "So it should be near the Loulan Ghost City."
Dao San continued, "According to the Ming Dynasty's style of doing things in our time, what we need to do now is to contact the sects that have left the world and work together to encircle and liberate these wandering souls."
Perhaps because they are too well-integrated, these people sometimes give Lin Qingsheng the feeling of being conjoined twins.
"But we have no connection with these sects." Lin Qingsheng said.
Daoyi said, "I was the one who contacted these Taoist sects beside the black-robed prime minister. I am very familiar with the old friends from the five Taoist sects. I will contact them."
Then he glanced at Lin Qingsheng and said, "What you need to do is seal off that place."
"Wandering souls have almost no independent consciousness. As long as they can be blocked, they will not cause any terrible consequences in a short period of time."
Lin Qingsheng glanced at Wen Ru, the chief consultant of the think tank, and Wen Ru spread his hands and said:
"According to the data analysis, you can establish connections and understand the operation of the supernatural organizations in the early Ming Dynasty. Then the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. In the mythological era, there should be rules between the court and the martial arts world that have been passed down for thousands of years. Only by mastering them can we get along better with the supernatural forces."
After Lin Qingsheng received a positive answer, he thought for a moment and looked at Daoyi.
"Okay, then I'll ask Senior Daoyi to take the trip."
“It’s my duty!”
………
On Mount Zhongnan, inside the cave, Qiao Yuanshan was on top of Mount Taiyi.
Ever since he had done something ruthless, no fellow apprentices had come to him to spar with him these days, for they were afraid that they would end up in bed due to the sparring.
After all, Senior Sister Zhao Yan was so pretty, yet this senior brother beat her up on the spot, hitting her specifically in the face, leaving her with a bruised nose and swollen face.
Who can withstand this!
This senior brother can’t be messed with!
So, Qiao Yuanshan had some free time.
The idle Qiao Yuanshan was assigned by his master Longxuzi to his great uncle. He didn't need to do anything but accompany his great uncle to relax.
To put it simply, it means accompanying in cultivation, accompanying in drinking tea, and accompanying in daydreaming, which are collectively referred to as the three companions.
Because this great-grandmaster was a person who didn't like to talk much. Apart from practicing Taoism, he would just stare at his sword in a daze.
If one were to go by what people say outside, his great-uncle-master should be a complete otaku.
However, Qiao Yuanshan also enjoys being idle, as he is the type of person who doesn't like to move.
He and his great-uncle-master are a pair of tortoise and turtle, absolutely amazing!
Look... my uncle-master is in a daze again.
Under the waterfall of Taiyi Mountain, in front of the stone table, Li Mubai, dressed in white, like a young master in troubled times, stared blankly at the sword in front of him.
His mind seemed to have flown away to who knows where.
Qiao Yuanshan sat in the distance, looking at his dazed junior uncle-master and shrugged.
My great uncle master is indeed my great uncle master. He spends less than an hour practicing every day, and then is in a daze for eleven hours, but he can still make rapid progress. This kind of talent is truly divine.
Just when Qiao Yuanshan thought he understood the talent of a god, a kind of Qi fluctuation suddenly appeared in Li Mubai's body.
The leaves, flowing water and dust on Taiyi Peak trembled with the fluctuations of this Qi body.
Like an invisible melody, it is closest to the way of nature.
The next moment, the fluctuations suddenly stopped, and the flowers, trees, flowing water and dust on the entire Taiyi Peak instantly returned to their original state.
And Li Mubai's aura became even more otherworldly.
Qiao Yuanshan was stunned.
what happened?
Is this a breakthrough?
This is not cultivation at all!
This... a breakthrough just by daydreaming?
Qiao Yuanshan has also reached the threshold of practicing Taoism. How can one achieve a breakthrough by just being in a daze?
This is outrageous!
"here we go again!"
Great-grandmaster Li Mubai sighed, as if he was still dissatisfied with his breakthrough.
Qiao Yuanshan opened his mouth and said, "Uncle-master, what are you dissatisfied with? You have achieved a breakthrough just by daydreaming."
This practice is just like eating and drinking water.
Glancing at Qiao Yuanshan, Li Mubai seemed to see through his thoughts and said:
"Because this breakthrough is just like my sleepwalking, it is completely out of control. What does it matter if the cultivation level is high if it is out of control?"
At this point, Wen Zhengming's cheap senior brother Li Mubai sighed again. He was very unhappy. He would lose control and run outside from time to time, and his cultivation would be out of control from time to time.
This made him feel insecure.
But he didn't know that it was his distant junior fellow apprentice who was doing the trick.
In order to make his cheap senior brother qualified to complete most of the things that tool men can do, Wen Zhengming would raise Li Mubai's level and attributes whenever he had time these days.
A qualified tool person should be able to handle most things.
"Uncle Master, this looks a bit like reincarnation!"
A voice came from afar.
Qiao Yuanshan looked over and found that the master who had found an excuse to slip away before had returned riding on a crane.
The crane landed on the ground and folded its wings. The old Taoist priest Longxuzi jumped down from the crane and brushed off the dust on his body.
Qiao Yuanshan asked, "What is the sign of reincarnation?"
"The image of reincarnation, as the name suggests, is a method often used by powerful people in ancient times to avoid the end of the law. Buddhism is good at this method, but it is not limited to Buddhism."
After imparting knowledge to Qiao Yuanshan, the old Taoist priest looked at Li Mubai and said, "The most obvious sign of reincarnation is that one's cultivation level will often increase uncontrollably, and it may also affect one's mind."
Li Mubai shook his head and said, "I know that, but this kind of influence on consciousness is the awakening of past life memories, and I don't have the state of awakening memories."
"What if something went wrong during the reincarnation process?"
The old Taoist priest said quietly: "For example, memory loss."
Li Mubai hesitated for a moment and said, "Maybe... maybe."
Li Mubai suddenly fell into self-torture. Could he really be someone's reincarnation?
After thinking for a long time and failing to figure it out, Li Mubai gave up and shook his head.
"Speaking of reincarnation, I accepted a disciple on behalf of my master before, and I accepted a junior brother. He seems to be the reincarnation of a great man."
"According to the time, I think his cultivation level is now comparable to mine."
The old Taoist priest Longxu blinked his eyes and said, "So Quanzhen has a new great-grandmaster?"
Before Li Mubai could answer, a voice suddenly came from afar:
"Brother Longxuzi, a guest has arrived. The head teacher wants you to go to Chongyang Palace!"
The old Taoist looked at Li Mubai, then turned his head and looked behind him, muttering:
"Got it, I'll be there right away!"
Thanks to Xingkong Yuyun for the reward of 500 Qidian coins and Zhuandouzhendamadaengshou for the reward of 100 Qidian coins!
