Chapter 43 Yunyu Liu Peiyu

Chapter 43 Yunyu Liu Peiyu

"It seems that we have to visit Yuntu, Sanqing Mountain and Huifeng Valley."

After realizing the seriousness of the matter, Chu Tai also understood why the Crow Immortal Wu Chaoxi chose to leave immediately after a brief exchange.

The existence of Jun Modao forced Wu Chaoxi to intervene in the Wang family's affairs. At the same time, his alien identity made it difficult for him to trust the immortal monks.

Chu Tai suspected that the reputation of Taiyi Jinhua Sect played a significant role in the other party's trust in him.

After returning to the woods, Chu Tai and Guo Shan had a brief exchange, and then drove the remaining corpses forward. They calculated where the remaining corpses were going, and according to the order of distance and the impact on the Wang family, they chose to go to Yunluo Liu's house first.

Unlike the great and philanthropic Wang family, the Liu family living in the Yunchu area can be considered a family of spiritual practice.

Six hundred years ago, the ancestor of the Liu family was fortunate enough to obtain a volume of cultivation methods and became a cultivator.

After three generations of inheritance and accumulation, a wandering immortal was born, who is the current head of the family, Liu Peiyu.

As a well-known immortal who has been practicing for more than 300 years and has achieved immortality for hundreds of years, Liu Peiyu's name is also known to Taoist Fu Guang. When he was explaining the immortal practitioners in the world to Chu Tai, he used him as an example.

According to Taoist Fu Guang, although what Liu Peiyu learned was a side door alchemy method and he did not receive the true teachings of the Xuanmen, it did have its own unique and wonderful uses.

The four symbols of the golden elixir have been formed, the five elements have gathered, and yin and yang have combined. It's just lacking a little bit of fire. It's difficult to be complete after seven returns and nine returns, and it's difficult to fully refine the body. Without the full work of creation, it cannot reach the top grade, and stops at the middle level.

However, he has practiced hard for many years and has accumulated magical powers of more than 400 years, which is a first-class existence in the State of Chu. Moreover, he started preparing to deal with future disasters sixty years ago and practiced many powerful spells, and his magical powers became more and more powerful.

He also refined a powerful magic weapon, the Feiyan Qingmeng Flag. Taoist Fuguang had watched it from afar and commented that it was made by repeatedly refining various spiritual herbs, pulling them into threads and weaving them into a fabric. Its shape and quality had been completely refined, and it was engraved with the cloud scrolls of the side door, assisted by real water to enlighten the spiritual orifice, giving off a brilliant light and precious aura, making it a superior side door magic weapon.

Although its potential is not as good as the Jinxuan Danxia Banner, it is not inferior in terms of fighting skills.

In a nutshell, Liu Peiyu can be considered Chu Tai's predecessor in terms of both his supernatural powers and years of practice.

When meeting such a person, you naturally cannot wear a mask, nor should you easily go to visit him.

They have been doing business here for hundreds of years and have deep roots. They were invited in by personal invitation, but Chu Tai came here on his own to ask for a meeting.

Therefore, before arriving at Yunxu, Chu Tai helped Guo Shan clean the coffin on his back and opened up a small world to collect the remaining bodies that had not yet returned home.

He asked Guo Shan to practice on a hill near Yunluo, while he changed his clothes and walked towards the town where the Liu family lived.

As one of the few immortals in the State of Chu, Liu Peiyu's reputation allowed the Liu family to monopolize a good spiritual cave and to enclose a large piece of land to build pavilions and towers.

During the construction of these buildings, the lives of the surrounding people gradually shifted towards the Liu family and became dependent on the Liu family, further expanding the Liu family's influence in the local area.

Nowadays, in the towns outside the Liu family, apart from a very small number of indigenous people, the majority are outsiders who come here to seek the truth and learn the law. It can be said that it is a mixed crowd.

Chu Tai, who was alone and still in his teenage years, naturally attracted a lot of attention as soon as he entered.

Those martial artists who were carrying short swords and long sticks looked at each other, sizing up Chu Tai with different eyes, trying to guess his origins and abilities.

Looking around, Chu Tai saw a lot of hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng, as well as some magical medicines such as seven-leaf lily and cloud-shaped fritillaria that were grown in the mountains and rivers of southern Chu State.

It’s just that these ingredients were either not cooked enough or their medicinal properties had been lost, and after going through the whole process, they were all just low-quality stuff.

'I thought that with the flow of people here, some treasures would be found and evaluated, causing a sensation, and finally the Liu family would be brought in. Now it seems that I underestimated the Liu family's ability, and all the slightly more famous ones have been plundered. ''Should I find something else to do now to make some noise? '

When Chu Tai was feeling distressed, a beautiful woman in luxurious clothes walked straight towards him.

The faces of the people watching Chu Tai changed color one after another, some were surprised, some were admiring, and some even looked at Chu Tai with jealousy.

"Hmm? Why does this aura have some traces of unorthodox methods like mud and water alchemy?"

Chu Tai glanced at the woman and frowned slightly.

The woman didn't care. She stepped forward and bowed to Chu Tai, saying, "Meet the Taoist priest. The head of the family invites you."

Chu Tai was slightly surprised by the other party's behavior, but he didn't show it on his face. He nodded and signaled the other party to lead the way.

Amid the surprised gazes of the rest of the crowd, the two walked into the gate of the Liu family, passed through a large garden with an exquisite layout, where rockery and vines created a new scene with every step and every scene, and came to a pavilion built beside a verdant bamboo forest and in a clear lotus pond.

Inside the pavilion, a young, handsome and dignified middle-aged man in Taoist robes was looking at the lotus in the water. Behind him, there was a small stove with a pot on it making a gurgling sound of boiling water.

The woman took Chu Tai forward and said respectfully, "Master, the Taoist priest is here."

Liu Peiyu raised his hand, and the woman retreated respectfully without saying a word.

Seeing this behavior, combined with the aura of Dharma he had sensed from the woman before, Chu Tai frowned slightly, feeling that something was not right.

As if seeing Chu Tai's confusion, Liu Peiyu said with a smile: "My family always likes to act like a noble family. I'm sorry to make you laugh."

"The Liu family has been here for hundreds of years and is a first-class family in the Chu State. It is normal for them to have some rules."

Chu Tai's answer made Liu Peiyu shake his head repeatedly.

"Fellow Daoist, your vitality is pure and clear, and you are surrounded by aura. You are obviously a person who has achieved success in cultivation. You must have a deep nature of Taoism. How could you not know that the rules of this family are the most torturous? People who cultivate can be crude and stupid, but if they lose a little bit of self-esteem in their hearts, they will be useless."

“So, in this world of mortals, what is most tiring is never the seven emotions and six desires hidden in the wonderful Qi of human Yuan Ling Qing, but the red tape that consumes people’s ego!”

As he spoke, Liu Peiyu took out some bait, threw it into the water, watched the fish fighting for it, and muttered to himself.

"Sometimes, I wonder if it would be better if there were no ponds in the world."

Chu Tai, who heard the other party's thoughts, looked at the fish in the pond, as if answering, but also as if asking himself.

"But without the pond, can these fish adapt to the big rivers? They will die..."

Chu Tai stepped forward and blew a breath. The clear water rolled and the fish hid under the lotus leaves. The lotus leaves just swayed in the wind but never sank into the water. Standing alone above the clear water, they seemed to be protecting the fish swimming below.

"Restrictions are also protections, and freedom also requires legal principles. If you feel that the pond is a restriction, then jump out of it. If you are powerless, then staying in the pond may not be a bad thing."

Chu Tai's answer made Liu Peiyu laugh out loud and he shouted towards the bamboo forest behind him.

"What do fellow Taoists think?"
