Chapter 111 The Evil God’s Whereabouts! Laojiu Barbecue Shop

Humans are born with 500 years more experience than monsters, which means that it takes monsters 500 years of cultivation and reincarnation for their spirits to be reborn as humans.

At this point, even if one goes against the flow and becomes an immortal, the distance to eternal life is still elusive.

Therefore, in order to realize that illusory hope, many spirits in ancient times wanted to take shortcuts and directly take over human bodies.

That is the demon.

Going against the norm is a demon, and going against reason is a human being.

“It is impossible for monsters to transform into humans on their own… Those who have cultivated horses and worshipped immortals eventually ended up having human bodies taken over, and in the end they could no longer even be human beings.” Old Yu said calmly.

As the Legend of the White Snake says, the white snake cultivated at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain for a thousand years before it took on a human form. Where her human body came from is unknown.

Because of this, Taoist masters may tolerate monsters in the mountains, but they regard monsters as evil.

As long as it is a demon, it must have occupied a human body, disrupted the laws of nature, and even caused killing.

“Once the spirit of a mountain monster takes over a human body and transforms into a demon, the body will undergo some changes to a certain extent.” Old Yu stared at Zhang Fan’s computer screen.

This article by the thousand-year-old demon also mentioned the special features of demons. Even if they have human bodies, because their souls are mountain monsters, their bodies will gradually show characteristics of monsters.

For example, a fox spirit may have a foxy smell on its body, and some may even have a fox tail.

For example, a snake demon, which was originally a mountain python, may have scales on its skin surface.

As their adaptability to the human body improves, they may be able to hide and suppress these characteristics, but in certain environments or conditions, they will still be exposed and reveal their true colors.

Just like Bai Suzhen who claimed to have a thousand years of Taoist practice, a cup of realgar wine revealed her true colors.

“Monster…” Zhang Fan thought.

Even though he is practicing Taoism now, he has met many masters and even dealt with heretics like the Wuwei Sect.

But to him, monsters still seemed to be legends that only existed in movies and TV dramas.

Monsters are common in the mountains, but demons are uncommon.

After all, the former practiced hard in the mountains and awakened his spiritual wisdom. It was born naturally and there is nothing wrong with it.

But the latter has to take the most crucial step, which is not allowed after the founding of the country.

“Eighty years ago, after the great catastrophe in Taoism, almost all old monsters over three hundred years old died.” Yu Fu sighed.

“Can a monster be called an old monster if it’s over three hundred years old?” Zhang Fan couldn’t help but ask.

“A demon is born from a spirit that has taken over a person’s body. It has disrupted the order of nature. Its fate is more than that of an ordinary cultivator. It is very rare for a demon to live for more than three hundred years.”

Yu Fu rolled his eyes, quite speechless. Where in this world could there be so many thousand-year-old monsters?

“That’s right.” Zhang Fa nodded.

Disaster is the elixir of life, but mortals cannot recognize the smile of immortals.

Taoist practitioners cultivate the primordial spirit, which should allow them to live longer than the average person. However, as soon as the Taoist heart arises, the devil is born. Therefore, from the day they embark on the journey of cultivation, they will encounter disasters on the road.

Therefore, most practitioners eventually fall into disaster.

Ordinary practitioners are still at this stage, let alone demons! ?

Nowadays, any species can be driven to extinction. If one can live for more than three hundred years, he can indeed be called an old monster.

“Nowadays… there are fewer and fewer real monsters. After the founding of the country, a nationwide survey was conducted.” Yu Fu lowered his voice.

“Generally, all monsters are registered and have their household registers made.”

“Ordinary monsters? Could there be monsters from Class 2?” Zhang Fan understood the key.

“If there really are monsters like those in [Class 2], even cultivators would have difficulty seeing them.” Yu Fu glanced at them and said calmly.

“Old Yu, you understand and know more about monsters than about humans.” Zhang Fan joked.

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Hulu, who was standing next to him, choked on a mouthful of water and started coughing violently.

Yu Fu remained silent and just stared at Zhang Fan.

“Old Yu, have you ever seen a real demon?”

At this moment, Zhang Fan asked.

Even as a Taoist priest, he was extremely curious about monsters.

“I have seen it.” Yu Fu nodded and said lightly, “I advise you not to be so curious. Every monster is troublesome. It may not be a good thing to provoke them.”

“I would like to provoke him, but how can I have such an opportunity?” Zhang Fan curled his lips and changed the subject: “By the way, soul possession, didn’t you say that there are two types of people who are proficient in this?”

“There is another category, which is the Wuwei Sect.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Fan raised his eyebrows and a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes.

Among all the Taoist sects in the world, from ancient times to the present, if we were to ask who has conducted the most in-depth research on the primordial spirit, almost to the point of being a demon, it would be the Wuwei Sect.

The Wuwei Sect uses the primordial spirit as the great medicine to steal life from the midst of murderous intent.

In their eyes, among all things created by nature, only the innate primordial spirit is seeking the elixir of immortality at this time. This is also the only chance of survival left by God to all living beings in this world.

It has been given by Heaven, and if you do not take it, it will be a great sin.

Because of this, they have no taboos. Not only do they use the original spirit as medicine, but they also often take over the physical body and occupy the magpie’s nest.

“It is a big taboo for the soul to take over another’s body. It is not only against the harmony of nature, but also against ethics. Although Taoism does not prohibit this method, there are many things to pay attention to…” Yu Fu said in a deep voice.

It is said that Li Tieguai’s soul left his body and his disciples mistakenly thought he had become an immortal, so they burned his body. Since he had no flesh left, he would become a homeless soul over time. As a result, his soul took over the body of another person. Even so, it was the body of a beggar who had died not long ago.

The Wuwei School does not have so many requirements.

“Precisely because they have no taboos, once they take over another person’s body, it is equivalent to having a new identity. That’s why the masters of Wuwei Sect hide very deeply and are extremely difficult to find.” Yu Fu said in a deep voice.

Since the founding of Taoism, the Zhang Family of Mount Longhu and other Taoist masters from all over the world have united to launch nine campaigns of “Destroying Mountains and Temples” over a period of two thousand years. However, they have not been able to completely wipe out the Wuwei Sect, because these people have the ability to possess the soul and take over other people’s bodies.

Once the whereabouts are revealed and a catastrophe is imminent, one can use the method of [Soul Possession] to escape.

A new body means a new identity.

He may even be right next to you and you won’t be able to detect him.

“This is the scariest thing about Wuwei Sect… They always ignore the rules.” Yu Fu whispered.

“New body, new identity…” Zhang Fan murmured softly, and suddenly became alert.

“Yes, sixty years ago, after the death of the world’s number one master, the Three Corpses Taoist, the Wuwei Sect seemed to have disappeared overnight, without leaving any traces…”

“The internal means are self-evident.”

Yu Fu paused for a moment, then continued, “They are extremely elusive and omnipresent…”

“Let me put it this way. Even if you tell me that there is a master from Wuwei Sect among the top ten sects in the world, I won’t find it strange.”

“Really?”

At this moment, Jiang Hulu next to him couldn’t help but ask.

This seemingly joke is actually very serious. If it were true, it would be unimaginable.

“How should I know?” Yu Fu shook his head. He was not from one of the ten major sects.

However, this possibility is very high. After all, after the Zhang family of Longhu Mountain is gone, the biggest threat to them is the ten major mountain gates that represent the top power of Taoism, no, the nine major mountain gates.

If I were an enemy, I would also infiltrate the inside.

But you cannot have such thoughts, let alone bring them up. Once you bring them up, people’s hearts will be in chaos, and that will be a greater disaster.

“Wuwei Sect…” Zhang Fan remained silent.

The real Wuwei Sect is even more unfathomable and awe-inspiring than he had imagined.

“The Wuwei clan and the Mountain and Sea Demon Ghosts are all experts in ignoring taboos and possessing other bodies with their original spirits, so…”

“In ancient times, most of the demons and ghosts in the world were affiliated with the Wuwei Sect.” Yu Fu said in a deep voice.

“Build a temple on a mountain, set up a temple on a river, control all the demons and ghosts in the world, gather incense from all over the world, sweep across the world, and stabilize the world.

Zhang Fan thought of the introduction of Wuwei Sect, and it turned out that this sentence was not just talk.

When the Wuwei Sect was at its peak, its power was so great that it not only divided the world’s worship, but even the monsters and ghosts in the mountains and seas came to its side. No wonder the Zhang family of Longhu and Longhu united with all the Taoist sects in the world and launched nine campaigns to destroy mountains and temples in order to fight against it.

“Now you know… it’s not right for the soul to take over another’s body.”

Yu Fu pointed at the post on Zhang Fan’s computer screen and said earnestly, “Whether it’s Wuwei Sect or a demon, it’s not a good thing to run into them.”

“I hope you’ll run into this in your life.”

Having said that, Yu Fu turned around and left.

“Lao Yu…”

At this moment, Zhang Fan suddenly called out to Yu Fu.

“What else?”

“After the soul leaves the body, if you want to survive forever, are there only two ways: sealing it off or possessing another body?” Zhang Fan asked.

Ten years ago, he used the method of splitting his spirit into three parts. The good spirit resided in the flesh, and the evil spirit was sealed in the Xiong family ancestral hall.

“That’s right…there are only these two ways.” Yu Fu nodded.

“If… I mean, if a soul cannot be blessed by external forces and cannot be sealed, if it wants to survive, it can only take over another body?” Zhang Fan’s mind raced.

“That’s the theory, but the risks of the soul taking over another body are also very high. It doesn’t mean that any body can adapt to it. Sometimes the soul and the body will repel each other, which may hurt the soul…”

Old Yu seemed to be quite knowledgeable about the soul taking over other bodies, and he spoke very clearly. “In addition, frequent changes of bodies can also cause problems for the soul. At the mildest, it could be mental disorder or even mental illness, and at the worst, it could be beyond measure.”

It is extremely difficult to practice the art of possession of another body by the soul. Even if one succeeds in practicing and lives in a body that is suitable for the body, the probability of successfully completing the art of possession is only 0.3%.

Of course, once it succeeds.

“Then he would have a new identity. In this vast sea of ​​people, no one except himself could see through his biggest secret.”

Yu Fu’s voice echoed in Zhang Fan’s ears for a long time.

“Evil God…”

At this moment, there was only one year in Zhang Fan’s mind.

“Please don’t take over someone else’s body, otherwise where can I find you in such a huge crowd!?”

As a soul, the evil god is also incomplete and imperfect. If he takes over another body, who knows what kind of changes he will undergo! ?

“Zhang Fan… Zhang Fan…”

At this moment, Jiang Hu’s voice brought Zhang Fan back to his senses.

“what happened?”

“The boss is not here these two days, why don’t we go to [Be Contented and Happy] later?” Jiang Hulu suggested.

“Where has the boss been these two days?” Zhang Fan asked back.

“It seems that he went to the Dao League with the people who came down from Zhenwu Mountain!”

“Jiangnan Shengdao Alliance!?”

Zhang Fan remained silent. That was an official organization. It seemed that it was about the commotion in the East Suburb Cemetery that day, which was related to the thirteen zodiac signs.

“Whoosh…”

At this moment, the Chaoxin icon on Zhang Fan’s computer lit up. When he clicked it to open it, it turned out to be Jiang Lai’s dialog box.

“You fought with someone?”

A simple question, followed by a fox emoticon with a huge question mark on its head.

“No, I was just there to watch. It was the boss and Sister Wen who took action.” Zhang Fan replied.

“Whoosh…”

As soon as the message was sent, Jiang Lai replied with an emoticon package, in which a roaring man shouted two words: liar.

Zhang Fan smiled and looked up at Jiang Lai’s seat. The latter was staring at her computer screen intently, as if waiting for Zhang Fan’s reply.

“I’ll treat you to dinner after get off work.”

“Eat meat!”

“no problem!”

Zhang Fan replied with a smiling emoticon.

……

In the evening, night falls.

Old Town, No. 101 Xiangliu Street.

Laojiu Shabu Shabu Restaurant.

Ever since Xiong Sanqi brought Zhang Fan here once, he fell in love with this barbecue restaurant. Although it is a bit remote, it is quiet. The meat is especially delicious, which costs 15 yuan a plate. It is tender and juicy, and is a must-try.

“Master Jiu…”

Zhang Fan led Jiang Lai, lifted the door curtain, and as soon as he entered the door, he greeted the bald old man behind the counter.

Xiong Sanqi said that when his father was young, he often came to this barbecue restaurant. The boss was called Jiu Ye, so Zhang Fan naturally called him that too.

“And brought a girl with him.”

Jiu Ye’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked Jiang Lai up and down. When their eyes met, they stayed still for a moment.

“sit down.”

Jiu Ye greeted him.

“Let’s order some food…”

Zhang Fan took a quick look and found that the business in the store was as quiet as usual. Apart from their table, there was no one else there.

Sometimes, Zhang Fan even wondered how Jiu Ye had been able to keep this old store going until now.

“Are there any dietary restrictions?” Zhang Fan looked at Jiang Lai and asked considerately.

“No garlic.”

“If you eat meat without garlic, the flavor will be half gone.” Zhang Fan couldn’t help but say.

“Don’t eat offal, don’t eat onions, don’t eat vegetables…” Jiang Lai thought for a while and added.

“Only meat?”

“Yeah!” Jiang Lai nodded.

“Let’s have fifteen plates of meat first.” Zhang Fan didn’t want to bother and placed the order directly.

A moment later, fifteen plates of barbecue and sauces arrived.

Zhang Fan was grilling the meat while Jiang Lai was holding chopsticks, waiting for the meat to be put into the bowl. In a moment, all fifteen plates of meat were in her stomach.

“Can you still eat it?”

“Just enough to smooth the gap.” Jiang Lai said without raising his head.

“Master Jiu, fifteen more plates.”

……

On the iron plate, the meat, which was 70% lean and 30% fat, was roasting with a sizzling aroma that filled the entire house.

Zhang Fan was flipping the noodles with the tongs, and suddenly asked, “Jiang Lai, do you know where you are from?”

“I know.” Jiang Lai nodded.

“Where?” Zhang Fan’s eyes lit up, and he instantly remembered the past he had seen in the star calculations.

“Longhu Mountain!”

“really!”

When these three words came out of Jiang Lai’s mouth, Zhang Fan’s heart seemed to be suddenly gripped by someone.

“What do you remember?”

“Can not remember.”

“…”

Zhang Fan paused and squinted his eyes and asked, “Are you kidding me?”

“Barbecue.”

Jiang Lai pointed to the iron plate.

Zhang Fan curled his lips and put the roasted meat into Jiang Lai’s bowl.

“You asked me to wait for you to come back.” Jiang Lai lowered his head, ate meat and talked.

“Didn’t I come back?”

“It’s not you.” Jiang Lai shook his head.

“…”

“Jiang Lai, you are not a demon!?”

At this moment, Zhang Fan suddenly spoke. He always felt that Jiang Lai was different from normal people. He had felt this way since he came to Zhenwu Mountain.

“You are not a human being.” Jiang Lai put down his chopsticks: “I’m full.”

“Not an ordinary demon.”

Zhang Fan shook his head: “Old Yu said that there are some unusual monsters from Class 2.”

“go home.”

As he spoke, Jiang Lai stood up and walked straight out the door.

“Wait for me.”

Zhang Fan paid the bill and said hurriedly, “Master Jiu, the money has been paid.”

Before he finished speaking, he rushed out in pursuit.

After a while, Master Jiu staggered out from the kitchen.

“You eat yours.”

At this moment, Master Jiu said something to himself in the empty room, then walked to the table littered with cups and plates and started to clean it up.

“Class 2? Interesting!!”
