"Ah" Chang Jin closed the book and sighed heavily.

There were a few days left to take the exam for the government, and somehow, his mood began to panic.

It’s not that he is afraid of the prefecture exam. He is the head of the case in Tongqu County, which is equivalent to being admitted to the student. According to the custom, as long as the prefecture exam does not make fatal mistakes, he can definitely pass the prefecture, and the same is true for the college exam.

The state of mind was suddenly chaotic, but it was related to practice. Chang Jin always thought that he was a person with a firm mind, and he didn't know why he suddenly felt confused in his heart. It was like a strong city wall, and a crack appeared unknowingly.

When he practiced the "Twelve-story Tower Visualization Sutra" at night, he was even more unable to concentrate and remain silent.

After practicing until the critical moment, illusions arose in the Nirvana Palace, but the magic brush did not respond at all.

Fortunately, he realized something was wrong and stopped immediately, and nothing went wrong.

After trying this again and again, Chang Jin had to stop practicing... He knew that if this problem was not solved, he would probably be like this for the next period of time. Chang Jin also had speculation in his mind about why this situation suddenly occurred. It was probably caused by the inner demon mentioned in the "Twelve-Level Tower Visualization Sutra". Chang Jin was promoted to the realm of ghost immortals in just one year, and the speed was absolutely jaw-dropping.

Because of this, although there is a magic pen to provide luck suppression, it is ultimately unstable.

Knowing that there was something wrong with his mood, Chang Jin did not plan to stay in the house, so he said goodbye to Huangfu Yuanwai, pressed his sword and walked out of the village.

During this period, he spent most of his time studying in Luliu Villa and did not look closely at the environment outside the villa. Now that he walked around, he found that this place had a different interest.

Weeping willows are planted around Green Willow Villa, and green trees are hidden, which is very elegant. Walking forward, it is a village. Wherever you look, a peach tree planted by a farmer's home is filled with peaches the size of eggs. At this time, the peaches are not yet ripe and naturally cannot be eaten. But a few anxious children secretly took bamboo poles and beat the peach trees, causing a burst of exclamation.

Soon, the farmer reacted. An old man walked out with a cane and scolded the children, scaring them to escape.

Chang Jin smiled. This feeling was so good, and he couldn't help but feel a little relaxed.

After passing the village, you can see the green wheat waves, and the surrounding air is also filled with the fragrance of wheat. A few quails are flying among the wheat waves, adding a little vitality to the field.

The farmer has few idle moons. Although it is late spring, the fields are busy. Many farmers carry hoes to weed and occasionally hum a few tones.

Although the people under Wanshan Prefecture lived a hard life, they did not survive, and they were able to enjoy the joy of suffering and enjoy themselves.

Along the way, the countryside is filled with a comfortable and leisurely scene.

However, thinking of the increasing number of refugees and beggars in the city, Chang Jin knew that the troubled times were coming was not a fallacy. If the situation continued to deteriorate, it would explode one day.

Those farmers who worked in the fields were a little surprised to see Chang Jin, and they didn't know what the scholar was wandering around the place.

An idle person does seem a little abrupt.

Chang Jin had no choice but to walk quickly, and before he knew it, he walked to a mountain stream and found two children, eight or nine years old, staring at the reed marsh not far away.

He coughed softly, and the children were immediately alarmed.

The two little guys didn't admit that they were born. The one who was slightly taller had his fingers on his lips to prevent Chang Jin from speaking.

At this time, Chang Jin saw clearly that there were fish hooks in front of both of them. But he quickly became confused. Fishing should be in a wide area, so how do two little guys choose to be next to the reed marsh?

Releasing his spiritual sense, he finally realized that the two children in love were not fishing, but using fish as bait to catch egrets.

Chang Jin saw it interestingly, so he simply stopped.

There are many water birds in the reed marsh, especially in late spring, wild ducks, geese, egrets, etc. will enter it overnight. In his memory, every time this comes, the fishermen in the village will take advantage of the night to get into the reed marsh and touch the blind birds.

This thing is simple to say, mainly because of fast eyes and quick hands. After finding the right place for the aquatic birds to live, they directly jammed their necks with their hands, so that they would not let the screams alarm other birds. They would just keep catching them. If they are lucky, they would be able to catch twenty or thirty one night.

However, this is the first time Chang Jin has seen this method of using fish hooks to catch egrets.

Soon, the child suddenly pulled the fishing rod, and then saw the flapping edges in the reed marsh shaking. A large group of water birds flew up with their wings.

The two little guys shouted excitedly, "Catched, caught" another one rushed into the reed marsh and carried the egret that swallowed the bait back.

"Brother, come here, we roast egrets, do you eat them?" the tall man invited.

"Baked egret?" Chang Jin has never eaten this before.

"You don't know, seeing that the egrets are thin, they are all fine meat. They taste so delicious when roasted. There is also this for you." The child said and handed over another bird egg with pockmarks.

Chang Jin reached out to take it and looked at the other person in confusion. The child grabbed the bird egg and touched it on the ground, then pried open a small mouth, sucked it hard, and the egg yolk and egg whites were sucked into his mouth.

Chang Jin also learned to eat this once again. It tasted a little fishy and was cool and refreshing.

Seeing that he was having a good meal, the child wanted to hand over another one, but Chang Jin refused.

I was in a hurry and didn't bring food, so I couldn't exchange it with the other party. Chang Jin wanted to give these two children some money, but he felt it was tacky and gave up his thoughts.

After leaving the sight of the two people, Chang Jin took a step forward and walked rapidly. In an hour, he had already run out of hundreds of miles and disappeared into the vast mountains and forests.

When he felt that his abdomen was empty, he directly released his spiritual sense and found several places to hide in wild game. He did not kill too much, but just killed a hare and made a fire and roasted it.

Filling his stomach, Chang Jin did not continue running, but stopped in front of a cliff to rest.

Watch the sun move in the sky, birds and beasts run in the mountains... Before we knew it, the sun had passed and the night was spreading in the mountains.

Chang Jin kept his posture still, and the chaotic thoughts surged out of his mind.

If you practice Taoism yourself, you will be born or entered into the world? If you are poor, you will be able to keep yourself alone. If you are successful, you will be able to help the world. With Chang Jin's current ability, it is also extraordinary compared to ordinary people, but he found that he could not do much.

In fact, this confusion has always existed since Chang Jin to this world, but it is just suppressed in the deepest part of the heart.

When I visited Wang Jiuyuan on a heavy snowy day, I hoped that he could solve his own doubts. As a result, Chang Jin was quite disappointed. Wang Jiuyuan's theory inspired him a lot, but it was not completely convinced.

Then he met the Xuandong Taoist who was trying to win him over and asked him to join Yuqing Taoist, but Chang Jin naturally refused.

At that time, he had made up his mind to walk out of his own way in this world.

It is just that it is easy to learn from others’ ways, but it is difficult to seek your own ways.

After thinking for a day, there were chaos, but Chang Jin never knew where his way out was.

The dew in the mountains was heavy, and at some point, Chang Jin was already wet. He released his spiritual power to dry his clothes, and then looked into the distance in amazement.

A few miles away, there was a ferocious beast.

When his mind moved, Chang Jin had already taken a step forward quietly, and then stopped again.

"Hu" I saw a large python on a large bluestone several feet in a radius, and a huge body was wrapped in a ball, his head was raised high, and his green eyes looked at the bright moon in the sky, revealing a trace of spiritual light.

The forest is pitch black, and the entire body of the python is completely hidden in it. If it is not near, no one will notice that there is a python here breathing and breathing towards the moon.

The name of this python is Ayi. It still remembers the person who named him in its brain - a woman in white clothes.

When the woman saw it more than ten years ago, she frowned and said to herself: "What name should I give you...Ashan, Aqing...or should I call it Ayi?"

The woman in white cast a spiritual consciousness in its head, then left and never appeared again. However, the python remembered this name, and it was called Ayi from then on.

After giving birth to spiritual consciousness, Ayi sneaked into human villages several times.

From there, it knew that it was called monsters by humans, and there were many Taoist masters appearing in the places where humans gathered. In those legends, many transformed monsters harmed people in the human world, but were all eliminated.

One time, the python was almost eliminated by a Taoist priest. If it hadn't seen the wrong time, it jumped into the water and ran away immediately, and now it would have been gone.

It is precisely because of this that the python has awe in his heart. He rarely goes down the mountain for fear of being removed.

The bright moon passes through the sky, and a few light clouds in the sky are covered with a layer of gauze.

The python was waiting for this moment, and immediately raised his head, as usual, restrained himself and kept inhaling and exhaling.

During the breath, the snake's body continued to shrink and swell. At this moment, the python felt the surrounding breath absorbing the huge sarcoma of the head.

At the same time, the qi and blood in the body were also mobilized by this breath.

As the breathing deepens, the internal organs begin to vibrate, and several breaths in the body move rapidly, and the qi and blood around the body gradually become hot and boiling.

At this time, the python closed its mouth tightly, and the whole snake body seemed to be inflated, gradually expanding and becoming larger. In just one stick of incense, the body swelled more than twice.

At this moment, the huge snake head became ferocious and terrifying, with green eyes completely raised, and the sarcoma on the top of the head was red, as if it was stained with blood.

Guagua

As the breath intake increased, the python could no longer help, opened its mouth and made an anxious cry.

The sound was like thunder, and it rushed three feet away from the front of the mouth and nose before it dissipated into the night sky.

Quagua Quagua Quagua

The sound became louder and louder. The python's chest and abdomen were like waves, sometimes bulging high like a suckling pig, sometimes as if it was shrunk into a thin piece of skin.

At this moment, the whole night was full of explosions, and the mountains and forests were silent, which were heard several miles away.

Just doing a simple breathing and breathing action, the python felt the airflow in its body continue to thicken.

It was originally only a trace, but now it is like a vine, completely connecting the internal organs through blood.

It felt that it could no longer absorb it, so it took a long breath. It shook its body suddenly, and the dewdrops stained on the scales had dissipated.

Refining Qi means refining the essence of the moon that spreads in the air and then converting it into spiritual energy.

However, its body is like a quantitative container, with limited spiritual energy that can be transformed, and it is already full in just one hour each time.

The body of the python was rolled up, and then he walked towards the depths of the forest, and began a day's predation.
