Chapter 19: Crying to calm ghosts, divine method

"The nine-headed Guanyin weeps to suppress the ghost statue!"

Xu Beihu said in a deep voice. After finishing his words, the sound of wind and snow in the sky seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

Crying to suppress ghosts? !

Li Che's face changed slightly.

Today, he is no longer the novice porter who used to focus on moving wood. He also knows a lot about the water involved in wood carvings.

This huge Feilei City is divided into an inner city and an outer city. The inner city is as prosperous as a dream. It is where the aristocratic families that have flourished in Feilei City for a long time live. It is extremely rich and prosperous inside.

These aristocratic families all have their own cultivation methods, and they even practice the rumored divine method.

In fact, every family owns a wood carving shop and recruits and trains wood carvers, because if the wood carvings carved by the wood carvers have a strong enough charm, it will be of great benefit to the family practitioners who practice the divine method.

Divine cultivation can be extracted from wood carvings.

This is also the reason why the price of wood carvings carved by wood carvers can be very high.

In the wood carving shops in the inner city, there are wood carving masters. The wood carvings carved by those wood carving masters are full of charm and extremely precious. Each piece is worth hundreds or thousands of gold!

Li Che has heard many opinions from Lao Chen this year.

It is not easy to become a master of wood carving, because the charm of the carved wood carving needs to reach the level of overflowing and taking shape.

Li Che's [Immortal Craftsmanship] Dao Fruit has reached lv2, which can make the carved objects have meaning, but he is still a little short of reaching the master level. Perhaps he can only reach the master level after reaching lv3.

"The sculpture maker will provide it, you can just carve it..."

Xu Beihu, who had a tall body and a deep voice, looked at Li Che deeply.

"This is a rare opportunity. It is based on your reputation for carving sculptures in the past. Because the wood carvings you carved have rich meanings, you got this opportunity."

"You don't need to be too burdened. Even if the carving fails and the finished wood carving is not rich enough in meaning, it doesn't matter. After all, you have only been a wood carver for a year, and there is still room for growth, so just practice."

Xu Beihu said with relief.

Li Che gritted his teeth and had no intention of letting go of the five gold leaves.

"Then let me try." Li Che said, cupping his fists.

Seeing that Li Che had agreed, Xu Beihu was in a good mood. He patted Li Che on the shoulder and said, "Young master of the Si family wants your wood carvings, probably to practice the divine method. The divine method of the Si family is to 'cry to suppress ghosts'." If you can succeed, you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future, and you may even have a chance to reach the master level."

"Divinity...crying suppresses ghosts." Li Che heard the explanation from Lao Chen.

Cultivation methods include physical training, inner strength and divinity. Among them, the divine method is the most mysterious, inner strength is precious, and physical training is more popular.

Divine law has always been controlled by the wealthy families in the inner city, and outsiders have no way of practicing it.

Xu Beihu glanced at Li Che and said softly: "The divine method is commonly divided into seven meridians, joy, anger, worry, thought, sadness, fear, and surprise... Crying to suppress ghosts belongs to the divine nature of sorrow, the divine nature. The method is infinitely mysterious, but it requires accumulation of divine power over time, and it is not easy."

Xu Beihu didn't say much and took a deep look at Li Che: "Your wood carving talent is excellent. If you become a wood carving master in the future, you will have a chance to obtain the divine method of my Xu family, so... don't slack off."

When Li Che heard this, he quickly showed gratitude on his face and bowed with his fists.

Xu Beihu nodded with satisfaction and took out a folded piece of paper from his sleeve: "This is the shape of the 'Nine Songs of Guanyin Crying to Suppress Ghost Statues'. The construction period is one month. After one month, I will come to find you." ”

"At that time, I will take you into the inner city to trade with the Master of the Si family."

Li Che nodded and took the shape diagram.

…

…

After practicing, Li Che returned to the workshop and tidied up before leaving Xu Ji Wood Carving Shop.

He made an excuse to buy some rice wine and cut some braised meat, but actually he planned to go to Fangshi in the outer city to check out the situation. If Xu Beihu didn't come to the muscle-opening method and the internal strength method, he would have to do it himself.

Fortunately, the muscle-opening method is only a body-training method after all. Although it is rare, it is as rare as the divine method.

After leaving the wood carving shop, he walked to an alley. After confirming that there was no one around, he activated the [Dragon Elephant King Kong]. His body straightened up and became burly. He took out a wood carving mask and covered it on his face. Wrapped in a fur coat, he disappeared down the long street.

Feilei City's Fangshi is located in the west of the outer city. It is a not-so-shabby place with many shacks and old buildings.

It looks very dilapidated.

But this is the market where the monks of Fei Lei City trade. Most of the monks here are adventurous people outside the city, killing monsters and entering strange temples to obtain cultivation resources.

The monk took the rags, spread them on the ground, even in a store, displayed all kinds of weird things, and started doing business.

Li Che looked over all the way, his eyes turning. This was his first time here. The main reason was that he had never practiced before and did not dare to come here for fear of losing his life.

After wandering around many stalls for a long time, I finally stopped in front of a similarly well-packed vendor.

The similarity in temperament gave Li Che a sense of security.

"Are you interested in the stuff that just came out of the Weird Temple?"

The stall owner glanced at Li Che, who was wrapped up tightly, and said in a hoarse voice.

"The Weird Temple..." Li Che was silent. It was an extremely dangerous place outside the city. It was rumored that the inheritance of the Lingying Sect came from the Weird Temple.

The reason why the huge scene is so precarious has a lot to do with the strange temples that have sprung up like bamboo shoots after the rain, and the raging evil things that escape from the strange temples after they lose control.

For martial artists, the suppressed Weird Temple is a place to explore resources.

However, Li Che is not very interested in the Weird Temple now. He came to the market only to ask for the body-refining method.

"Does the merchant have a body-refining method for sale?" Li Che changed his voice and spoke hoarsely.

"Body-refining method?" The merchant sat cross-legged on the ground and raised his head strangely.

"What level do you want?"

"Open the tendons." Li Che said.

Open the tendons?

The merchant's eyes flickered.

"I just happened to have a middle-level body-refining method that I found in the Weird Temple in the south of the city. It can be cultivated to the point of tempering the bones. I wonder if you have any ideas?"

Li Che's burly body was extremely oppressive, but the vendor was not afraid. What kind of strength could a guy who even wanted to buy the method of opening the tendons have?

"I only need the method of opening the tendons." Li Che responded lightly.

The vendor didn't waste any more words after hearing this, but was quite quick. He took out an old blue-covered book from his arms and handed it to Li Che.

After flipping through it and confirming that it was the middle-level method of opening the tendons, Li Che closed the book with satisfaction.

"If you have an internal force method, you can also take it out and have a look."

In fact, Li Che had no hope for the internal force method, but if it really didn't work, he would go back to Lao Chen to buy it. Lao Chen had said at the beginning that he could sell him the internal force method.

"You are joking, the internal force method is mostly monopolized by the aristocratic families. We, the small vendors, can't bear the responsibility of selling the internal force method. Once we are discovered, we can't survive in Feilei City."

The vendor shook his head.

Li Che felt regretful, but he didn't care: "Then let's take this method of opening the tendons."

The merchant raised five fingers: "Five hundred taels!"

Li Che laughed and slowly stood up. He was as burly as a mountain. The blood and qi in his body were intertwined and surging. The air around him became stagnant. The extremely terrifying sense of oppression pressed down on the other party as if the sky was falling and the earth was collapsing.

This man thought he was a martial artist who was stuck in the perfect skin grinding, so he needed the tendon opening method urgently, so he took advantage of the fire to rob him?

Don’t say... He really guessed it right.

“One hundred taels, that’s enough.” Li Che said lightly: “I bought it to give to the younger generation, it’s enough.”

The merchant felt this boldness and his face changed slightly. As a person who was mingling outside the city and dared to enter the strange temple to fight for the harvest, he naturally had good eyesight.

The strong blood of this strong man, the oppression is not as strong as that of the bone tempering martial artist, and even his hands are stained with human life!

He is definitely a murderer who regards human life as worthless!

A hand-copied medium-level tendon opening method, which is not rare, is sold for one hundred taels, anyway, some are profitable.

After all, he has copied several copies at home.

“Deal!”

The merchant said immediately from the heart.

After hearing this, Li Che threw down a hundred taels, turned around and left with the tendon opening method, and disappeared in the market.

The merchant also pulled up the cloth and left the stall.

…

…

After learning the method of opening the tendons, Li Che was in a good mood and could start opening the tendons tomorrow.

After leaving the market, he found a remote place, took off his shawl, and found a place to hide. Then he leisurely cut the braised meat and drank wine. He also went to the snack shop to buy a box of osmanthus cake that Zhang Ya liked to eat, and then returned to the wood carving shop.

The wind and snow were rustling and dancing all over the sky.

Stepping on the thick snow covering the bluestone ground.

Li Che walked towards the way home.

However, his steps gradually stopped. Carrying the braised meat, jar of wine and osmanthus cake, Li Che frowned slowly and stared at the man standing at the door of his yard...

Zhao Chuanxiong, the head of the government office, stood with a knife, smiling and not smiling.
