Chapter 433: Nanshan Lingyun (Thanks to the leader of the "Emperor Europe Blessing" boss) "Brother! Where are you going?" He was a young man wearing a tattered gown, with a pale face and thin body, and many patches on his body. It was obvious that he was poor, but it was also obvious that he was trying hard to look presentable. "Go forward." Lin Jue looked at him and replied, "What are you doing..." "Alas, I am also a fellow traveler, but I heard that there are bandits ahead, and I am afraid of being robbed, so I dare not move forward and wait for someone to come with me." The man in green shirt said, and even kindly reminded him, "Where are you going ahead? What are you going to do? Do you know that there are bandits ahead?" When Lin Jue was halfway through his words, he felt his fox scratching his hair, as if reminding him of something. Lin Jue ignored him and just replied: "Go to Nanshan." "What are you going to do in Nanshan? To retire?" The man in green seemed to be more alert. "Do you know that it is now the lair of bandits?" "I am a layman. Even if there are bandits, I don't think they would rob a monk like me, right?" "That's hard to say. Nowadays, no one can survive. There are many mountain bandits. People are afraid of being robbed, so they often disguise themselves as Taoists or monks, thinking that they won't be robbed. Those mountain bandits are no dumber than ordinary people. After many times, they will know."

"So what you mean is..." "I'm looking for someone to go with me." The man in green shirt answered and paused: "I heard that the bandits in this area were originally poor people. Although they were forced into banditry, they neither killed anyone nor robbed money in moderation, and they certainly did not rob monks. If the Taoist priest is really a monk, then I will go with him. If not, there is no need to hide it from me. We can wait here for a few more people to go with us, and then we can set out together. Don't lie to me, or we will lose money for nothing." “But I am indeed a Taoist.” "How to prove it?" "There is a certificate of ordination as proof." "That won't work!" "Why?" "Those who pretend to be Taoists or monks walking around are not stupid. The certificate of ordination is just a piece of paper and it is too easy to forge." The man in green shirt shook his head and waved his hands. Lin Jue didn't know whether he knew or not, but there were two kinds of certificates of ordination, one was a piece of paper and the other was a folded one. But he didn't say much, but asked with a smile: "How do you prove it?" "If he is a Taoist priest, he must have magical skills. Bandits are afraid of this. Does the Taoist priest know it?" "How can you show your magic skills to others so easily?" "That Taoist priest must be fake!" The man in green shirt insisted. Lin Jue had already seen that he was a bandit from the local area, and because he was wearing a Taoist robe, he looked like a Taoist priest, and they were worried that he might have some special skills. But perhaps because there was not much money to make here, and there were too many people pretending to be monks on the road, they were unwilling to let go of everyone wearing Taoist robes or monk's clothes, so they had to come out to test him. Especially after hearing that I was going to Nanshan, this person was afraid that I was going there specifically to find them. Lin Jue knew it very well, but he still asked: "how do I say this?"

"Firstly, the world is in chaos right now. If you are a cultivator, why come here if you don't go and exorcise demons, help the world, and save people's lives?" the green-shirted man said. "Secondly, the Taoist priest claims to have magic, but he can't show it to others easily. What's the difference between him and those charlatans?" "I don't think that's right." "What's wrong?" "Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. Different people have different abilities. A Taoist is a cultivator, not an official or a general. I don't necessarily know how to help the world and save people's lives." "What does the Taoist priest know?" "What can I do..." Lin Jue smiled. This question should be asked to the crocodile king who eats people while practicing cultivation, to the leopard king who invades the human world, and to the Queen Mother of the East who captures cities and swallows up the land. But he didn't say anything at this time. He thought for a while: "I can do it with a spirit writing brush." "Can you use a spirit writing brush? Can you tell fortunes?" "Exactly!" "How about you figure out my name?" "Okay." Lin Jue nodded and said, "I'm just afraid your name is not worthy of being seen by others." "Ok?" "Let me do the math..." Lin Jue smiled slightly, as if casting a spell. But he did not take out a dustpan, a rice tray, a sand tray, or a stylus. He just stood there, paused for a moment, and then began to recite a divination poem: "You don't need to escape from your name now, half of the world belongs to you." When the man in green heard this, his expression changed. It was obvious that he was educated, which was why he was sent to do such a thing. And as a bandit himself, he knew very well that this line of poetry was written about bandits and robbers. "you……" Before he could utter a single word, a beam of white light suddenly appeared above the Taoist's head. At first it was just a tiny white dot, about the size of a bean. As soon as it jumped out, it swelled up in the wind and instantly became larger, turning into a gigantic white fox. When it landed on the ground, it was as big as a house. The white fox stood in the woods, supporting itself with its two front legs, slightly bent over, opened its mouth and stuck out its tongue, stretched lazily, and its six fluffy tails slowly opened behind it like a fan. "Five-tailed white fox... “Lin, Lin, Lin…” The man in green pointed at Lin Jue and was speechless. He had originally thought that perhaps this man was indeed a Taoist who knew some magic, so no matter what the magic was, he would let him go.

Even if this person does not know magic, as long as he can calmly tell the Taoist master and the Taoist people, and it is confirmed that he is really a Taoist, he can be let go. I thought about the worst outcome, which is that this person is a master who knows magic and heard that there are people here who have become bandits, so he came here specifically to eliminate them. Then there is nothing we can do, we can't survive anyway, so we have to fight. But he never thought that the person he met would be the famous Master Lin in Qinzhou. The story of this master has been circulating in the mountains. They even had statues of him on their mountains. "My last name is Lin Jue. I came from the capital and I want to go to Nanshan to find a destiny." Lin Jue said to them, "The world is not easy now. Considering that you don't hurt the lives of passers-by, I won't hurt your lives either. I am too lazy to send you to the government in this world. But the world is not easy, and it's not just you. Being a thief in the mountains is not the right way after all. You have three days to get down from the mountain. No matter how you make a living in the future, you are not allowed to be a thief again. Otherwise, if I see you, I will not let you go." "Yes Yes Yes……" "One more thing." The man in green was about to leave, but when he heard this, he stopped. "I want to meditate in the mountains and practice cultivation. I would like you to bring me food and water. Ordinary food and clean water are enough. Just once a day. I will exchange it with you for silver." "Obey, obey the Master's order!" "You go first, I'll wait for you at the top of the mountain." "Yes……" The man in green shirt ran away in panic. Lin Jue watched him leave and shook his head. "Half of the world now belongs to you..." Although this poem is a bit exaggerated, I'm afraid it is slowly coming true. But this is obviously different from the peaceful years. If the whole world were filled with bandits and even honest farmers became bandits, then it would obviously no longer be the bandits' fault. “Linlinlin…” The fox tilted its head to look at him, its eyes clear and seeming to be healing. "Let's go." Lin Jue rode his donkey and continued forward. As we gradually go deeper into the forest and up the mountain, the spiritual charm of the mountain slowly emerges. A towering stone mountain appeared before him. Lin Jue knew that mountains and rivers have spirits. He came here to get Nanshan stones and absorb the spiritual charm of Nanshan. Naturally, there was no reason for him to fly up. So he took the fox and slowly went up the mountain road. There are no steps, just paths. First there were dense forests and green mountains with lush vegetation. When I reached the top of the green mountain, I thought the view would be broad and that I would be very close to the top of Nanshan Mountain. However, my view was completely blocked by this rocky mountain. It turned out that the top of the ordinary green mountain was just the beginning of Nanshan Mountain. Going up gradually, you will reach the stone mountain.

Fortunately, there is a road from beginning to end. Lin Jue felt a strong yin and yang spiritual charm, which must be due to absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon. He is most sensitive to this. In addition, there is the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the spiritual charm of mountains and rocks. There is something special among these auras. The specific details still need to be carefully understood. Lin Jue patiently walked up step by step. It is easy to pick up a piece of Nanshan stone. Now you are already on the top of Nanshan Mountain. Just bend down and pick up a piece. But it takes some effort to find the piece that is most spiritual and mysterious. Now that Lin Jue has arrived here, it is naturally not as simple as just picking up a piece of Nanshan stone, but he also has to comprehend the spiritual charm of the mountain. Just like before at Beibaoquan—— The Leopard Spring has spiritual charm and can nourish the soul. Lin Jue has been waiting for the Leopard King in the Leopard Spring for several months, and has also been practicing in the Leopard Spring for several months. Now the strength of his soul is far beyond before. The natural resources of Nanshan should not be wasted. Lin Jue quickly reached the top of the mountain. Looking around, I saw a vast expanse of sky, with nothing but blue sky, white clouds and fresh breeze. The blue sky was around me, the white clouds were under my feet and the fresh breeze was everywhere, but I couldn't see even a bird. The open space is a bit boring. I did understand a little bit of the feeling that Taoist Master Jiang talked about above the nine heavens. "I want to practice here, please don't disturb me, and don't let the goblins and ghosts in the mountains disturb me casually." Lin Jue sat down cross-legged on the top of the mountain and rubbed the fox's head. The fox stood up with a serious face and also rubbed his head with its paw, as if it would suffer a loss if it didn't rub back. "Do not worry!" "If it takes too long, don't get bored." "A fox can play with itself. It can go to the mountains to find other animals and monsters to play with. It won't be bored!" The fox said to him seriously, "The fox also has six tails to play with!" "That's good." "The fox will protect you!" "Thank you." Lin Jue smiled slightly, "If you are really bored, you can also practice writing and recognizing words." "The fox will protect you!" "..." Lin Jue shook his head and closed his eyes.

The spiritual charm of the mountains seemed to be visible for a moment, appearing in his mind as the clouds rolled and the sun rose and set. It turns out that the spiritual charm of this place nourishes the body. Lin Jue had not yet refined it into the golden elixir, nor had he swallowed the golden elixir, but he had used this method to gain some insights into it. (End of this chapter)
