Chapter 300 This fate is truly wondrous!
As soon as dawn broke, Zhu Chongjiu, who had developed the habit of waking up early since childhood, got out of bed rubbing his groggy head.
He pushed open the door, stretched, took a deep breath of the fresh mountain air, and then got into a starting stance, beginning a set of boxing moves.
It lacks a powerful, vigorous feel, but possesses a slow, profound sense of weight.
Halfway through his boxing routine, Zhu Chongjiu saw Liu's mother emerge from the room.
"Aunt Liu, did my martial arts practice wake you up?"
"As I get older, I need less sleep. I usually have to get up even earlier than today."
"I'll go prepare breakfast for you right away."
After saying "Thank you for your hard work" to Liu's mother, Zhu Chongjiu continued practicing the unfinished boxing stance.
Shortly after Liu's mother went into the kitchen, Lianhua also came out of the room.
Seeing Zhu Chongjiu practicing his martial arts, Lianhua walked straight over with a happy expression on her face.
Good morning, sister-in-law!
The lotus flower that came before Zhu Chongjiu ignored his greetings and instead asked him directly:
"Ling'er, was what you said last night true?"
"Sister-in-law, is what you're saying true?"
Upon hearing Honglian's question, Zhu Chongjiu asked, puzzled.
"Is this the 'mountain-suppressing technique' you mentioned, the one that can suppress rockfalls?"
Ah, this matter!
To be honest, sister-in-law, I really can.
Upon seeing Zhu Chongjiu confirm this again after regaining consciousness, Honglian immediately said happily:
"That's wonderful! The hundreds of people in 'Lianwang Village' are saved this time!"
"Damn it, we're doomed!"
Upon hearing the words of the woman named Honglian, Zhu Chongjiu hurriedly added, "I do know how, but sister-in-law, I don't think I can use it with my current level of Taoist cultivation!"
"Huh~?"
Honglian's expression shifted instantly from surprise to astonishment, doubt, and disappointment, all converging on her face at the same time.
Just as the two were awkwardly speechless for a while, Qingfeng came out of the room rubbing his temples.
"Madam, what are you and Brother Ling'er talking about?"
Yesterday's drinking was really enjoyable.
Ling'er, stay with your brother a few more days, let's get drunk a few more times.
A moment later, Qingfeng also learned that although Zhu Chongjiu knew the technique of suppressing mountains, he was unable to use it.
Although Qingfeng wanted Zhu Chongjiu to explain the incantation of the Mountain-Suppressing Technique, to see if his current cultivation level was sufficient to perform it.
However, such secret techniques are generally not passed down to outsiders.
"Brother Qingfeng, do you have paper and pen?"
Although he didn't know what his little brother needed paper and pen for, he quickly replied, "Yes!"
Just as Qingfeng was leading Zhu Chongjiu toward the study, Liu Mama came out of the kitchen to call everyone to have breakfast.
"Aunt Liu, please wait a moment, it will be ready in ten minutes!"
As Zhu Chongjiu finished speaking, he quickly walked into Qingfeng's study.
Before Qingfeng could offer any courtesy, Zhu Chongjiu picked up the inkstone on the desk and began grinding it.
After a minute or two, once the ink was ground, Zhu Chongjiu casually picked up a pen from the pen holder, grabbed some papers scattered on the desk, and began to write furiously.
Qingfeng, somewhat bewildered by Zhu Chongjiu's actions, suddenly exclaimed upon seeing the opening line on the paper that directly stated the theme:
"Ling'er, this is not appropriate!"
"Brother Qingfeng, is there something wrong?"
Zhu Chongjiu, who had just written two sentences, looked up and asked Qingfeng in reply.
"These kinds of techniques are usually kept secret by different schools. Isn't it against the rules to just write them down like this...!"
Before Qingfeng could finish speaking, Zhu Chongjiu, who was already writing with his head down, interrupted him and replied:
"The Law was not created for any particular person, sect, faction, or faction."
Especially our Taoist teachings.
The law exists for all things in heaven and earth, and therefore should be applied to all things in heaven and earth, whether it be killing or redemption.
At this point, Zhu Chongjiu put down his pen, picked up the sheet of paper that was already filled with words, or rather, law, and handed it to Qingfeng.
"But……!"
"Brother Qingfeng, there's no need for 'but'."
Even if we don't discuss anything else, let's just talk about the villagers at the foot of the mountain.
The path had a connection with them.
"Since Brother Ling'er has already said so, then I won't be so long-winded."
After saying that, Qingfeng took the paper and quickly left the study.
As he walked, he called out, "Madam, don't eat breakfast yet. Hurry up and prepare the materials needed to set up the formation."
The sky was overcast and it was drizzling.
Watching the two figures disappear and reappear, Zhu Chongjiu sighed inwardly, "Fortunately, we have Brother Qingfeng and his wife. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for me to complete the task of setting up these arrays on the other mountain peaks in such a short time."
Time flew by, and it was noon.
The Qingfeng and Honglian couple had already selected all the materials needed for the mountain-suppressing spell and placed them in the locations indicated by Zhu Chongjiu.
"Ling'er, it's all done."
After Qingfeng finished setting up the last piece of array material, he said to Zhu Chongjiu.
"Okay, Brother Qingfeng."
If you can, you can start activating the great formation now by following the incantation I taught you.
Then, at the core of the formation, I'll need Brother Qingfeng's help.
"Mom, Mom, come out and see!"
"Many yellow lights are shining on the mountains around us! Come and see!"
The couple, who had just returned home safely after discussing with their wife whether the young Taoist priest could subdue the female ghost, were startled by their son's cries. The wife scolded him:
"You little brat, didn't I tell you not to play outside when it rains?"
If I get a fever or a cold, where can I find a doctor to prescribe medicine for me...?
The wife walked out of the house while cursing.
A moment later, his wife's voice rang out, "Honey, come quick and see, our son is right."
"Look what's wrong with this?"
At this time, not only their family saw the situation on the hills surrounding the village, but other families also happened to see it.
At this moment, what comes to everyone's mind is that little Taoist priest.
There was worry, but also relief!
"The true forms of the Five Sacred Mountains, the Heavenly Official, the Earthly Official, the Spirit Official, and the Earth God, command and obey my orders."
Just as Zhu Chongjiu recited the incantation, the large sword that had been carried on his back suddenly rose into the air.
As the great sword rose higher, the phantom image of its blade also grew larger.
When the phantom of the great sword grew to a hundred feet in size, Zhu Chongjiu, already drenched in sweat, shouted to Qingfeng beside him:
"Brother Qingfeng, please help me!"
After activating the formation, Qingfeng stayed by Zhu Chongjiu's side. Upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's plea for help, Qingfeng's spiritual power split into two streams and instantly entered the great sword and Zhu Chongjiu's body.
Feeling the spiritual energy flowing into his body, Zhu Chongjiu, feeling much more relaxed, immediately raised his hand and made a sword finger gesture, pointing at the great sword in the void and shouting:
"Divide!" "Town!"
At Zhu Chongjiu's command, a giant sword split into four. As the word "suppress" was uttered, the four giant swords pierced the peaks of the four mountain ranges surrounding the village with the speed of a streak of light.
After witnessing this astonishing phenomenon, some of the villagers at the foot of the mountain immediately knelt down and kowtowed towards the direction of the giant sword.
At the same time, he muttered, "That's not a Taoist priest, that's a deity appearing to protect us and help us subdue the female ghost."
Thank you, God! Thank you, God!
Perhaps the disaster has been averted, for the previously gloomy sky is now showing a ray of fiery red sunset light.
Zhu Chongjiu, who was resting in bed due to exhaustion, was woken up by his sister-in-law Honglian.
"Brother Ling'er, Mother Liu has stewed a lot of wild delicacies for you to nourish your body."
Eat first, then rest!
Although there was some strain, it was still inevitable that it would be another big mouth.
The drinking session had gone on until midnight.
Zhu Chongjiu looked up at the sky, where the dark clouds had completely disappeared and the stars were now twinkling and dazzling.
"This mountain-suppressing technique can not only suppress mountains and other places, but also gather energy and condense spirits."
It's just that I don't want to stay here for long. Otherwise, I could give Sister Honglian some pointers on her cultivation and then submit a memorial to the emperor.
Let's see if we can make it a local mountain god or land deity, so that Qingfeng won't need to use his spiritual power to nourish its corpse and soul so often.
Hey!
The main reason is that their destiny and path haven't arrived yet, unlike that village couple.
This fate is truly wondrous!
Well, this life isn't that interesting anyway.
Actually, I still yearn for a simple and ordinary life!
As Zhu Chongjiu touched the great sword that seemed to have been broken and then reattached, and muttered his last words to himself, his eyes opened again.
