Chapter 148 Time flies, I, Yu Haitao, once left my name on Wanmin Umbrella
early morning!
Xuan Yang walked out of the house refreshed and looked at the blue sky.
"Hey, why does the sky feel so much bluer than before?"
Without thinking much, he went to chat with his junior brother. He arrived at the place where his junior brother used to live with him. He knocked on the door, but there was no response. He opened the door and found the bedding was neatly laid out there, with no signs of anyone having slept in it.
Xuan Yang walked to the bed, bent down, looked for something with his eyes pressed against the bed, and moved his nose to sniff.
His expression was solemn, then incredulous.
"Junior brother, he really didn't sleep, but where did he go so early in the morning?"
Last night he was so absorbed in having a great battle with his master's wife that he completely forgot about his junior brother. It was not until the early morning that he remembered that his junior brother had returned.
A piece of letter paper pressed under the kettle caught my attention, so I picked it up and took a look.
"Brother Xuanyang, I have something important to attend to, so I won't stay for long. The friendship between us is in my heart. I hope you and your wife are well. I have nothing else to leave behind, but some magic. I hope you can study hard, expand Chaotian Taoist Temple, and contribute to the world..."
Xuan Yang put down the letter paper, looked at the booklet beside him and took a look.
Table of Contents: "Soul Refining Technique", "Curse-Bearing Technique", "Corpse Refining Technique", "Swallowing Clouds and Exhaling Mist", "Wooden Stake Technique", "Tiangang Five Thunder Technique", "Finger of Magic Power", "The Ultimate Blood Secret", "Four Symbols Formation", "Forbidden Magic Formation", "The Various Advanced Colors and Perceptions of Taoist Body".
“Junior brother, wuwuwuwu…”
Xuan Yang's eyes filled with tears. He quickly came to the door and shouted, "Junior brother, where are you? Why did you leave for no reason? I can't bear to see you go. Come back and stay with me."
The voice was transmitted in the Taoist temple, and each call was filled with sincere emotion.
No echo.
"Is he really gone?" Xuan Yang muttered. In case his junior brother played hide-and-seek with him, he looked everywhere again. After making sure that there was no one, he rushed to the room. "Master's Wife, my junior brother is gone. He is really gone. He didn't come back to snatch the Taoist temple from us. My good junior brother, he is really my good junior brother."
"Oh, that's great, what's that in your hand?"
"The spells that Junior Brother left behind make me dizzy. I don't have time to practice these things now. Let's take advantage of such a good day and try again."
Xuan Yang threw it casually, and the booklet recording Xuan Dian's practice method was inserted into the bookcase.
Then the sound of the wooden bed shaking, creaking and panting could be heard from the room.
Half a month later, in the Northern Territory.
Lin Fan sat cross-legged next to the Demon Eye, as wisps of pure demonic energy flowed out of the Demon Eye and merged into his body.
According to Xuan Dian's previous habits, he would not absorb it so slowly, but instead took big gulps of it, allowing the demonic energy to spread throughout his body. But now he was very steady, absorbing the demonic energy, then refining it in his body and integrating it into his lungs.
Now the three most powerful auras among the five energies entangled in him are Taoism, Buddhism and Devil.
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes. He felt calm and peaceful inside, and was not affected by the evil spirit.
The sealed Gu Xingyun naturally felt that Xuan Dian was absorbing the demonic energy in the Demon Eye, and roared angrily: "Xuan Dian, you guys, who are so righteous, are obviously coveting my Demon Eye. Damn it, you deserve to die."
Lin Fan said softly: "Gu Xingyun, cherish your time. Once I have completely absorbed your demonic energy, it will be time for you to be executed."
"Haha." Gu Xingyun couldn't help but laugh. "How ridiculous! You want to absorb the magic energy of the magic eye? Do you really think you can do it? Don't daydream. It's impossible. I want to see how long you can hold on."
Lin Fan ignored Gu Xingyun, but left the Demon Eye and walked in the Northern Territory to kill those demons and use merit points to improve his spells.
As for worldly affairs, he will not get involved.
Monks only need to slay demons and eliminate evil, and now that most of them have been slain, there is naturally no need for them to show off their prowess in front of people frequently.
When night fell, Lin Fan returned to the house built on the border of the Northern Territory. The three demons stayed here to practice. For them, wherever the Taoist priest was, they would naturally be there.
If you want to always follow the Taoist priest, you must not hold him back and you must have the corresponding level of Taoism.
Especially Miaomiao, she felt that she was still the clan leader, so she must work hard and practice diligently, and must not be lazy.
Day after day, half a year passed.
Lin Fan’s daily schedule was very stable. The first thing he did after waking up was to go to the Demon Eye to absorb the demonic energy, and then listen to Gu Xingyun’s unwilling roar.
After finishing absorbing the demonic energy, he continued to roam in the Northern Territory and kill the demons.
During this period, his realm did not improve. Instead, he used his own Tao heart and the golden blood given by the master to transform the evil spirit, preventing the evil spirit from running rampant in his body and losing his mind.
Of course, given his current situation, if he absorbed the resentful and evil energy that had been condensed in the Huangtian Array for hundreds of years, he would not lose his mind.
When he calmed down and reflected on himself, he deeply understood that he had many flaws and his understanding of the Dharma had not reached a very high level.
This was also the real practice he had started since he came down the mountain.
There is no trace of Xuan Dian in the world, but his legend is spread everywhere.
The storytellers were scattered all over the place, and whenever people gathered together, they would tell the stories of Taoist Priest Xuan Dian. Some storytellers were really talented and began to expand on the stories of Taoist Priest Xuan Dian, adding some small stories. These small stories were all adapted from real life and were spread only with the permission of the people who were helped by the Taoist Priest.
Taoist Priest Xuan Dian's prestige reached its peak due to the spread of storytellers.
Many people knew what Taoist Master Xuan Dian had done.
The wonderful life they have now is all created by Taoist Master Xuan Dian who chopped and killed them with his axe.
In a county town.
"Brother Rong, I told you, the Taoist priest will definitely succeed, and he didn't cause you any trouble, which means Brother Rong has turned over a new leaf and will be fine." Shan Gui was in high spirits as he listened to the storyteller's narration about the Taoist priest's deeds, and he turned to look at Li Rong.
Li Rong did not say anything, but he felt extremely peaceful in his heart. He had never thought that he would really see such a world.
Taoist Master Xuan Dian actually wiped out Wuwang and Huangtian Sect.
Today, under Jiang Zhengduan's arrangement, public security in various places is surprisingly good and is beginning to get back on track. The bad guys that were once seen everywhere are now rare, not to mention the scenes in the city where people draw their swords and fight each other over a disagreement.
Too many heroes appeared.
For example, there is a knight who has become quite famous in recent months, named Li Dabing. He wiped out a bandit nest of nearly a hundred people with just his sword. He became famous in the martial arts world and was called Li Jianshen by the world.
There is also a knight named Ouyang Haoyun, who also carries a giant sword on his back and can be called the Sword God. However, Ouyang Haoyun's physical body is quite powerful, and his boxing skills are even more impressive, so he is also called Ouyang Fist God.
Some people think that Ouyang Haoyun should be the number one martial artist in the world.
There are also many practitioners who are quite famous.
Taoist Ma Yi, Taoist Qingmu, and others all began to travel around the world, doing many good deeds and were deeply loved and respected by the people.
Everything is moving in the right direction.
Three years later, in the Northern Territory.
"Master, are you serious?" The sealed Gu Xingyun's voice trembled and he really started to get scared.
He has a connection with the Demon Eye, so he can naturally feel the Demonic Aura of the Demon Eye gradually weakening, and the speed of weakening is very fast, basically every few days.
After finishing refining the demonic energy, Lin Fan smiled and said, "I have been absorbing demonic energy here for several years. You only now realize that I am serious about this. You are right. The demonic energy in the demonic eye is indeed strong and it is very easy to make people fall into the demonic path. But what I have the most right now is time. There is no rush for us to take our time."
During these years, in the process of refining the demonic energy, his Tao heart has become more and more stable.
The refined demonic energy was integrated into the lungs and merged with the metal energy, one of the five elements, and great progress was made.
The merit points gained from slaying the Demon from the Northern Territory were not wasted.
He raised the magic he had learned to perfection.
The Five Elements Classic, the Five Thunder Methods of Tiangang, the Mana Finger, the Red Sun Destroying Pupil, and the Five Reverse Tribulations that Destroy the Purple Sun Body were all brought to perfection.
He was not in a hurry to further improve his spells and magical powers.
Instead, the wisest choice is to first completely integrate the demonic energy in the demon eye into the lungs, increase one's own cognition, and then be promoted at the moment of reaching the peak.
Gu Xingyun's momentum was a little weaker, not as strong as in the first few years. "Master, please give me a chance. There's no need to kill me all."
Lin Fan said softly, "I never discriminate against demons, but I can clearly see the difference between good and evil. If I leave you alone, who else in this world can subdue you except me and the master?"
"Master, can't I change it?"
"Then I killed your whole family and said I was wrong. Can you still forgive me?"
"Yes, I can definitely forgive it. It's a great thing to admit one's mistakes and improve. There is no one who has not done anything wrong. I can definitely forgive him." Gu Xingyun said hurriedly. As for face, he didn't care about it at all.
Lin Fan shook his head. "How shameless! People of each era have their own mission. The fact that you have survived until now means that no one in the previous era could take you down. But now that I have appeared, I have the responsibility to eliminate the remnants left over from the previous era and not leave you to the people of the next era."
Gu Xingyun was silent. Knowing that Xuan Dian’s determination to kill him would not change, he didn’t know what to say.
He couldn't even do anything now.
Lin Fan continued to practice. The demonic energy entered his body and was instantly transformed, flowing into his lungs. The fusion of gold, one of the five elements, and the demonic energy formed a force that was extremely overbearing.
He always had an idea in his mind, which was based on the theory of One Qi transforming into Three Pure Ones.
而他想的就是五脏身外化身。
想法是有，但以目前的情况，他自感无法做到，难度太高，况且以他现在的道行无法做到这一步。
不过他愿意尝试，先将基础打好，才有尝试的可能性。
又是不少年而过，本该寒暑交替，但北域之地颇为不同，一年四季都是一样，在这里感受不到任何季节的变化。
唯一有所改变的是笼罩北域之地的魔气淡薄许多。
被镇压的古行云沉寂，不再说话。
倒也给林凡提供了清净的修行环境，北域之地的魔很难见到，基本被他玄颠灭的干干净净，对北域的魔们来说，从未想过天塌下来的感觉是如何的。
但这些年，他们深刻的感受到了。
当那身穿阴阳道袍的人影出现时，便是天塌地陷，任你如何躲藏下场都是一样的。
这一日，盘坐在魔眼旁的林凡紧紧锁眉，额头浮现两种光辉，有股漆黑的魔气似乎想要占据额头，但紧接着，又是一股浩浩荡荡的气息浮现，将想要涌现的魔气彻底压制。
道生一，一生二，二生三，三生万物，万物负阴而抱阳，冲气以为和。
道法自然，万物相容。
原本狂暴躁动的魔气在融入到肺部的那一刻，金气的锋芒，魔气的凶狠全都变得温顺起来，安稳的凝聚一地，没有任何暴乱的迹象。
林凡睁开双目，一抹金光闪烁，随即隐匿。
突然，他心头一动，背在身后的万民伞似有所感，起身，朝着北域外走去。
封印中的古行云默默凝视着玄颠，他发现玄颠在这些年里的道行越发深不可测，所散发出的气息万分恐怖。
巴山县。
一家人办着白事，堂前儿孙嗷嗷大哭着，全都面露悲伤。
街道百姓们望着余府，也都叹息着，为余老爷的离世感到难过。
余老爷是当地心善的老爷，开伞店起家，随着新朝代的到来，各地发生了翻天覆地的变化，而余老爷就是抓住此机会，将一家小小的伞店，开成了连锁店，在巴山县就足足有三家，更别说在别的县开了多少家店了。
但余老爷是真的心善，没有为富不仁，反而每年都会将赚到的银两分给一些孤儿寡母。
人人都说余老爷菩萨心肠。
但余老爷却从不承认自己心善，而是得意自豪说，道长可是答应我的，在我死后会亲自前来将我魂魄收到伞里，跟随在他的身边修行。
所以我得行善积德，让道长看到我的行动。
当然，这些话没谁相信，就连余海涛的家人也不信，谁能不知玄颠道长，那可是仙人之流，虽然你余老爷为人很好，但怎么可能跟玄颠道长有关系。
余家前堂，很多百姓们自愿前来吊唁，当地的县令也前来上香。
县令走到家属面前，“唉，余老爷前半生活在乱世中，好在后半生享了新时代的福，没受什么苦。”
家属含泪点头，感谢县令百忙之中前来。
6◇9◇书◇吧
在场的人望着躺在棺材里的余老爷，要说余老爷闹出最大的笑话，也就是余老爷所说的那件事情了。
而证明这件事情，也只能在余老爷死后才能证明。
此时，一旁有位年幼的孩童，声音稚嫩道：“爷爷死后要跟道长修行的，爷爷经常跟我说，他这辈子最期待的就是死的那天，还经常让我问他，爷爷你什么时候死，爷爷总是说托孙儿的福，应该快咯。”
此话一出，现场一片宁静。
所有人都傻傻的望着孩童。
余家的人嘴角抽搐着，这……这。
“孽子，你胡说什么呢，今日是你爷爷出殡的日子，你怎么能胡言乱语。”余仁怒声呵斥着，抬手就要怒扇这不孝的儿子。
孩子被吓得躲在身后，昂着脖子喊道：“我没胡说，这都是爷爷说的，我最相信爷爷的话了，爷爷说道长以前光顾过咱们家的伞店，用过咱家的竹子制作过伞，那伞的模样就在画像上呢。”
“我看你是找打啊。”余仁愤怒，这要是传出去，可是要出笑话的。
他们被笑话无所谓，可现在爹已经死了，岂能死后被人在闲谈中笑话。
越想越气，伸手就要打孩子。
现场众人面面相觑。
这是真是假谁能知道。
也许是真的，也许是假的，但这些都不重要，因为余老爷子都……
突然，一道亲和的声音传来。
“孩子说的没错，贫道的确是答应了他爷爷，今日前来赴约。”
刹那间，灵堂安静万分。
所有人的目光齐刷刷的看向声音传来的方向。
就见一位身穿阴阳道袍的年轻男子跨过门槛，不急不缓的朝着灵堂走来。
众人惊愣，双目瞪的滚圆。
有些人家里摆放着玄颠道长的画像，日夜跪拜，早就将模样刻印在脑海里。
如今看到眼前的这位道长。
瞬间跟脑海里的记忆相互融合。
腰间别着斧头。
背着万民伞。
一模一样，简直就是一模一样啊。
所有人激动的浑身颤抖，消失了十几年的玄颠道长竟然出现了。
县令微微张着嘴，仿佛被人施展了定身咒似的，呆滞在原地。
余家的人更是如此。
曾经的老爷子一直将这件事情挂在嘴边，他们都听腻了，只觉得自家老爷子是真会吹牛，但也就算了，配合老爷子，让老爷子开心就好。
林凡路过孩子面前，面带微笑的轻轻摸着孩子的脑袋，“贫道来带你爷爷走咯。”
孩子双目泛着光，那是崇拜的光。
林凡走到棺材前，背后的万民伞悬浮到空中，众人抬头望去，伞面展开。
“余海涛，魂魄现。”
在施展炼魂术的情况下，余海涛的魂魄逐渐从虚幻到凝实，这一幕周围的众人看的那般的真切。
魂魄刚凝的情况下，余海涛浑浑噩噩，但渐渐的逐渐清醒过来。
“道长。”看到道长的那一眼，余海涛激动的喊出声。
“爹。”
“爷爷。”
余家人同样激动惊喜，但余海涛看都没看他们一眼，而是跪在道长面前，“多谢道长前来引渡小的。”
林凡道：“贫道当初答应你的事情，自然会履约而来，你还有什么话跟家里说的，就快说吧，贫道得带你走了。”
余海涛没什么话跟家里人说的，唯独走到孙子面前，将其抱在怀里，“孙子，爷爷跟道长修行去了，你往后得好好读书，莫要做坏事，否则爷爷可不饶你。”
“爷爷，孙儿知道了。”孩子乖巧的点着头。
余海涛转过脑袋，舔着脸道：“道长，您看我孙儿能在伞上留名吗？”
哪有这样当爷爷的。
竟然盼着孙儿死。
“行了，如今世道，万民伞不留名了。”林凡说道。
余海涛在面对道长，哪里有余老爷的风范，“对，对，现在世道这么好，的确是没必要留名了。”
然后余海涛看向前来的人，抱拳道：“多谢各位前来送别余某，但余某还是想问一句，我有没有吹牛？”
“嘎嘎嘎嘎……”
林凡看不下去了，一指点出，魂魄融入到万民伞里，漂浮的伞合拢，从空中落下，落到道长的手里。
林凡转身要走，当地县令连忙道：“道长，在下巴山县县令，拜见道长。”
林凡停下脚步，回头含笑点点头，“贫道玄颠，江正端可还好？”
县令道：“好，好的很，江师身体很是硬朗。”
听闻此话，林凡都怀疑是不是时山谦给江正端逆天续命，让其活的更久点，虽说他以前用青木之气调理过对方的身体，但也不可能有如此效果。
“硬朗就好，让贫道看看你如何。”
林凡开启功德之眼，双目似有光辉浮现。
县令紧张万分，只觉得手脚发凉，仿佛浑身上下都被看穿似的，他可是听闻玄颠道长能一眼看穿善恶。
在这短短时间里，他将自己从小到大所做的事情在脑海里捋了捋。
比如小时候跟狗抢过食物应该不算吧。
只是不知为何，总觉得道长很熟悉，好像以前见过。
林凡微笑着，轻轻拍着县令的肩膀，“没想到长这么大了，好啊，真的好啊。”
县令被道长这番话说的有些迷茫。
这话听起来，就好像道长见过他似的。
林凡没有多说，朝着门外走去。
沉思的县令鼓足勇气问道：“道长，我曾经是不是见过您？”
林凡没有停下，却传来爽朗愉悦的笑声，“自然见过，你小的时候可是很能吃烧饼的。”
县令愣神在原地。
脑海里的一扇门似乎被人狠狠踹开一样，那模糊不清的记忆疯狂涌现。
很快，他想起来。
他小的时候跟一群孩子在街道乞讨，饿的饥肠难耐，貌似的确有位道长给他们买过烧饼，而卖烧饼的那位老奶奶也时常会救济他们。
“我记起来了，我真的记起来了，道长，他就是玄颠道长。”
县令眼眶通红，曾经与他有一面之缘，还给他们买过烧饼的那位道长，竟然就是玄颠道长。
Ever since he heard about the deeds of Taoist Master Xuan Dian, he had been full of admiration for him and wanted to meet him.
I didn't expect that I had seen it when I was a child.
I also got help from the Taoist priest.
As he cried, the county magistrate began to laugh.
"Master, the world we live in now is the world you have been striving to see."
He was not the only one sighing at this time.
The people of the Yu family have come back to their senses from their confusion.
"Ah? Was my father really taken away by the Taoist priest?"
"Oh my god, my Yu family really has a connection with the Taoist priest."
"Dad, you really weren't bragging."
