Ye Chen opened his spiritual eyes and looked into the courtyard, and saw a cloud of gray air entangled above the roof of the main house, and the ghost was still here.
He drew out a hundred-year-old Thunderbolt Peachwood Sword from his back, and pulled out a Qi Shield Talisman from his pocket. A small amount of mana was poured into the Talisman. The complicated runes lit up, and the Talisman burned automatically, turning into a clear light and falling on him, forming an invisible layer of Qi. The hood covered his whole body.
The air shield talisman is a first-grade talisman, and it is also the most basic talisman of Taoism. The clear water talisman, raging fire talisman, and wind blade talisman he painted before are all first-grade talismans. With his strength, he can only draw this basic talisman.
But even the most basic air shield talisman is not bad in defense. He has tried it before, shooting three arrows with the golden light talisman can penetrate it. Palm-thick stone slabs shot through.
Holding a sword in his right hand and a golden light talisman in his left, Ye Chen walked slowly into the courtyard.
As soon as he entered the small courtyard, he felt that the temperature in the air dropped by about ten degrees. After the enhanced inspiration, he could detect a malicious gaze staring at him in the main room, but it seemed that it was daytime and the ghost did not come out. .
It seems to be dominated by ghosts. Although the small courtyard is overgrown with weeds, there is not a single mosquito or ant. Walking to the steps of the main room, slowly pushing away the dilapidated room, a puff of dust blows towards the face and slides down the air shield.
With the sunlight slanting down from the outside, you can see vines growing in the house. There are piles of weeds in the corner, but there are no spider webs. The dark and thin quilt on the bed has already grown a layer of mold due to humidity. The wooden bed feet There are also several black mushrooms growing.
When Ye Chen came in and glanced, he landed on the corner of the room, where a group of particularly dark mist was surging, turning into a huge black curtain and covering him.
He snorted coldly, raised the sword in his right hand and slashed, splitting the black scene in two with one sword, revealing a face covered in blood and rushing towards him.
This face is extremely ferocious, and ordinary people would be scared to death just seeing it, but Ye Chen has already known the essence of ghosts, they are just the lowest level of ghosts, and they usually hunt for frail old people or children, and it is difficult for them to be stronger. To deal with it, if Ye Chen hadn't broken one of its hands, under normal circumstances, he wouldn't dare to show his face now.
Physical attacks against invisible ghosts are useless, no matter how sharp the magic weapon is, they can't hurt them, but it's different if it's the thunder-splitting mahogany sword with the power to slay evil. Ye Chen turned his wrist and just split the black screen into two The mahogany sword was raised with the backhand, and the lightning-fast sword directly slashed on the grimace.
"what!"
A sharp and heart-pounding scream sounded directly in his mind, but Ye Chen's spirit strength is not as weak as it was when he first arrived. , piercing through the grimace, mana surged, a ray of thunder lighted up on the mahogany sword, and the grimace let out a scream, and it shattered into several pieces.
Ye Chen took out a fire talisman in his palm again, the mana infusion rune lit up, the talisman turned into raging flames and expanded, he slapped the split ghost body with his palm, and it exploded with a 'coax' sound, instantly wrapping the split ghost body in it Burning.
A sharp scream came from the flames, a burning grimace tried to reunite, Ye Chen hit the center of the grappling grimace with a sword to disperse it, and the flames swallowed the split grimace.
At this moment, raging flames set the roof on fire. Ye Chen exited the house and watched the flames gushing out of the house. Soon the whole house was on fire and quickly spread to the surroundings.
Ye Chen stood silently in the middle of the courtyard until he felt that he had harvested four potential points, then he walked out of the small courtyard through the burning wooden gate.
The Yin ghost died, the house burned down, and he couldn't live anymore, so he could only go back to the master's house, but this also represented his farewell to the past.
On the way back, I met many villagers who were attracted by the burning house. They looked at the house from a distance and pointed. No one went to put out the fire. The villagers knew that the house belonged to Ye Chen. If he didn’t save it himself, there was no reason for others to save it .
Back at the Earth Temple, he was surprised to find that the master didn't go out, but stayed in the yard drinking tea, saw him nodding approvingly and said:
"You did a good job. Your performance is beyond the teacher's expectations. Maybe you will be able to become a teacher soon."
Only then did Ye Chen know that his master had been watching him when he was going to deal with ghosts.
He knew that his performance today had impressed his master, and he didn't expect that he would soon be a teacher and travel around.
But he didn't expect this day to come so soon. One morning after a month, the master stopped him when he was about to clear the table after eating, took out Xiaoguang's secret book from his pocket and said to him:
"Zong Chen, take it to see, get ready, and five days later, I will hold a graduation ceremony for you as a teacher!"
Ye Chen was mentally prepared for this day. Although it was a little early, he was not too surprised, and reached out to take the secret code.
In his room at night, Ye Chen opened Xiaoguang's Secret Code again and accepted the remaining inheritance.
The cultivation method has not changed, it is still the Siyang Gong and Xiaoguang's great method of refining gods, but he has learned all the talismans of the master's school, the highest level is up to the fourth grade, as well as more than a dozen magic tools and three kinds of magic weapon refining methods, as well as several secret methods.
On the seventh day, Ye Chen returned the secret book to his master. The master prepared a large amount of exquisite blank talisman paper, a box of cinnabar, ten taels of silver, and ten second-grade talismans for him. The senior brother prepared dry food for him for a few days.
Witnessed by the villagers, a graduation ceremony was held for him in front of the Patriarch of the Earth Temple. So far, Ye Chen has officially graduated as a teacher and can go out to practice alone.
Saying goodbye to master and fellow villagers, Ye Chen left the village alone with his bags on his back, and walked out of the mountain along the road outside the village.
Chapter 349 Halfway Upgrading
In this ancient time with inconvenient transportation, it was often deserted for dozens of miles, not to mention this kind of world with ghosts and ghosts. Soon after leaving the village, the road was in a semi-abandoned state, and most of the narrow road was covered by wild weeds. On the road surface, only a road core in the center is left, and it can be seen that this is a road.
The road was so quiet that I didn't see a single person... let alone a person, I didn't even see a ghost.
Anyway, it is daytime, most of the ghosts are active at night, and there are only some wild animals during the day.
Ye Chen took a picture of the armored horse talisman for himself, and walked on the road at an extremely fast speed, even if there were wild animals, it would be difficult to catch up with him.
The armored horse talisman is also a first-grade talisman. It is a talisman that increases speed. After activation, people have the speed equivalent to that of a war horse. It lasts for three hours, that is, six hours, and it does not consume energy like ordinary running. Even ordinary people You can also run for a day without feeling tired.
Although Ye Chen's physical strength is comparable to that of tigers and leopards, it is good to save a little energy in the wild, and he is not stingy with this talisman.
He ran for six hours at a stretch, ate something on the way, and until the time for a armored horse talisman ended, he was already approaching Qingshan Town, which was less than ten miles away.
Qingshan Town is the closest town to the village. It is said that it has a population of several thousand. At the same time, the town is close to the Heishui River. With the help of waterways, it can go to other prosperous cities.
Ye Chen has two things to do when he goes to Qingshan Town. The first and most important thing is to fulfill his last wish.
The task of the last wish is to avenge the parents of this body. Three months ago, Zong Chen’s parents took the boy’s family of three to Qingshan Town, and encountered a green-haired zombie halfway. The few remaining escaped, and the young man also suffered a serious illness due to the fright, and did not die until he arrived.
Now that he has occupied his body, he has to fulfill his last wish. Now that he has successfully cultivated the Tao, he can already do it.
He planned to go to the town to inquire about the hiding place of the green-haired zombie, and then use potential points to increase his strength, and then make a move after being more stable.
The second thing is to inquire about the news from Qingshan Town, and then take the waterway to Guanzhong Luoyang to find the uncle in Guanzhong.
Generally speaking, there will be a task sent by the master to complete when leaving the teacher. Don't come back if you don't finish it. You will hang around outside by yourself. Before leaving, the master sent him a task to go to Luoyang to find the uncle.
The task is to find the uncle, but there is no specific request for what to do. Going to Luoyang alone for thousands of miles will not be easier than dealing with a fierce ghost. It is good enough to do it, and no additional tasks are needed.
The distance of seven or eight miles would not last long without armor and horse talismans, and as we got closer to the town, we occasionally saw people passing by on the road, and he was dressed as a Taoist priest, which was quite eye-catching.
A small caravan consisting of three ox carts approached, and an old man on the cart with a big cigarette waved to him:
"The little Taoist is going to Qingshan Town?"
Ye Chen nodded.
The old man waved enthusiastically and said:
"That's a good thing, the little old man is also going to Qingshan Town, and he happens to be on the same road, so he can take a ride along the way?"
He glanced at the caravan, and then at the front. Before he saw the town, he nodded and unceremoniously got on the last bullock cart.
Not long after I sat down, a waiter brought me a small pot of green tea.
Ye Chen looked up and saw the caravan boss grinning and showing his yellow teeth from smoking, he arched his hands and said:
"Thank you!"
You are welcome to take the teapot.
In the previous car, the old man saw Ye Chen take the teapot, sat down with a smile, and a young guy next to him asked in a low voice:
