Chapter 15: Kingfisher Spreads the Dharma, the Azure Skeleton Master
The Yin Mountains are like a dragon, stretching and undulating.
This mountain originates from the Northern Water Marrow Kingdom, runs through the Fire Kingdom in the middle, and its tail end is close to the Huachi Kingdom on the sea.
The vast mountains bring countless resources and conflicts.
I don’t know how many demons and evil remnants live here.
The night was cold, with dark mist rising from the mountains. The calls of birds and roars of animals echoed in the forest. The towering mountains seemed like ancient behemoths overlooking all living things.
Gaoshan Charity House is backed by a mountain range and appears extremely small and fragile against the backdrop of the mountain peaks.
Deep in the mountains, refugees fleeing famine spontaneously formed gathering places.
Wooden houses are built along the mountain.
A bonfire was lit in the square in the center of the cabin.
There was a man in front of the campfire, and the bright red firelight illuminated his terrifying body.
Its entire body is sapphire blue, as if painted with emerald green paint, its muscles are knotty, and there are three bald heads on its shoulders, one angry, one happy, and one sad.
Each head wore a skull crown with a blood-red flame burning in the crown.
This man holds a skull bowl in his left hand, symbolizing wisdom, and a vajra in his right hand. A beautiful naked woman is wrapped around him, with a dazed look in her eyes and a sacred expression.
Everyone worshipped and chanted the Dharma name.
"The flames of the Venerable Qinghaidi are limitless!!"
As all living beings bowed in devotion, the flames grew hotter.
The disciples below each had their own strange appearances. Some wore human skulls, some had bald heads with bright red lotus tattoos, and some were covered in human skin.
Without exception, all of them had ferocious looks and sacred expressions.
These people are the remnants of the Fire Wheel Buddhist Kingdom who have been hunted down by the Fire Elephant King.
After a long time, Qing Hai Di in front of the campfire opened his Dharma eyes, his eyes burst into flames, as if he could see through everything within a hundred miles.
"Venerable! Recently our strongholds at the foot of the mountain have been eliminated one after another. Should we send out a Dharma protector army to attack the Quhuang evil sect, destroy the Fire Elephant government, and establish a Buddhist kingdom on earth?" said a man with an elephant trunk.
"No, I, the Buddha, came from the boundless hell to save all living beings from the sea of suffering. If you start a war without permission, the people will be innocent."
Qing Hai Di had a compassionate face, but combined with his ferocious body, it all seemed so weird.
The crowd chanted the Buddha's name again and praised the Venerable for his compassion.
"Since the Buddha's portrait cannot convert people, then you should go down the mountain and convert them yourself. In addition to ordinary people, you can also convert the disciples who ride on the fire elephant."
They call the Fire Elephant King a mount. According to them, the Fire Elephant was originally the mount of the Fire Wheel Buddha King. Later, he was bewitched by the devil and betrayed the Buddha King to establish the Fire Elephant Kingdom.
Qing Hai Di had no expression on his face, and the flames of his skull crown grew hotter:
"There are unpredictable dangers and untraceable horrors ahead. Are you willing?"
"We are willing!!!" All the disciples and believers knelt down.
"May the light of the Fire Wheel Buddha King shine everywhere when he descends to the world, so that all beings may have blazing light that illuminates countless, boundless worlds."
Qing Hai Di chanted a spell and continued to practice with the woman until she turned into a mummy.
Everyone was used to it and even envied the woman for being able to practice with the Venerable and transcend the world of suffering.
The disciples went down the mountain and began their journey of salvation.
The real strong ones should break through from within. They don't have many people. If they just go down the mountain to fight others, how can they defeat the large-scale Fire Elephant Kingdom?
……
Phew! !
A kingfisher called.
In the charity cemetery, in front of the coffin, Xu Yang opened his eyes.
"come yet?"
Xu Yang walked to the door and saw a three-foot-long kingfisher standing on the eaves.
The kingfisher's eyes are bright and sparkling with wisdom.
"Greetings, messenger!" Xu Yang bowed.
He knew that this was the kingfisher messenger of the Heche Palace.
"Hmm." The kingfisher messenger's voice was clear and it was obvious that it was a female.
The kingfisher flapped its green wings, and a green whirlwind appeared. A leaf of book fell out of the whirlwind, on which was written the secret technique of the zombie totem of Zhigang Taoist. "Three hundred taels of silver, or thirty gold, thirty magic coins, and three merits."
Hundreds of taels were needed all at once, and Xu Yang felt a little distressed. Suddenly he remembered something.
"Messenger, wait a moment!!"
Xu Yang walked to the backyard and brought in the dwarf's body. The body had been specially treated and exuded a strong smell of herbs, plus there was a broken Buddha statue.
“Is this considered a barbarian Buddhist monk?”
Kingfisher turned his head and took a look, then said, "No, but it counts as the Qi-touching demon. I will be awarded five merits. Can I use the merits to offset it?"
"Exactly."
After deducting three merits from the five merits, there are still two merits left in the Dharma records, which is equivalent to two hundred taels of silver.
"To record merits in the future, just burn incense and pray to the Dharma book on the table, and it will be recorded."
Xu Yang secretly sighed, it turned out that earning merits made money faster, and it was impossible for an ordinary village to produce so much.
Back to the backyard.
Xu Yang flipped through the classics and had seen this method before. The zombie totem was similar to a rune, engraved on the zombie's body. There were six types in total: hard armor, sharp teeth, sharp claws, light body, smelling nose, and great strength.
"Old Master Ren has the fighting power of sensing Qi, but the other three zombies don't. We can use the totem method to increase the fighting power of the zombies to the level of sensing Qi."
It doesn’t matter if you fail in your training, at least your proficiency will be improved.
There were still more than 30 unidentified corpses in the morgue, and two full jars of human blood, so there was no need to worry about the money.
Xu Yang came to the pavilion and opened the coffin. Inside was a gray-faced zombie lying. He carried the zombie out, found medicinal herbs, rooster blood, and a carving knife, and began to carve a totem on the zombie's body.
The way of cultivation itself is complementary to each other. The small success of the corpse-driving method on my body is enough to compare with the decades of practice of Taoist Changming. With the in-depth practice of this method, it will be easier to engrave the totem on the zombie, at least it will not hurt the zombie.
The dwarf's body also entered the coffin and was about to be refined into a zombie; the heart blood, brain marrow and other substances containing the soul were used to refine the locust wood ghost.
The soul, body and blood are all useful, and the whole body is a treasure.
The ancestral hall was filled with smoke and three locust wood tablets were offered as offerings.
The Taoist priest concentrated his attention on carving dark red lines with cinnabar and a carving knife.
as time flows.
Proficiency improves little by little, and strength accumulates little by little.
outside world.
As Zhang Zheng came down, it seemed as if some mysterious switch was turned on.
There were many frictions between the various factions, and people often went missing among the people. Some were even killed in broad daylight. When they were found, only a heartless corpse was left.
The strange thing is that Xuyang's side is relatively safe. Apart from some people going missing in the mountains, no incidents of people digging out their hearts and livers have occurred.
half a month later.
In front of the ancestral hall, where incense is bright and the aroma of sandalwood is strong.
Xu Yang sat cross-legged, his expression changing from bright to dark, and the negative energy seeped into his body like a firefly.
After a long time, he finished his practice and felt the silk book from the Warring States Period.

"My proficiency has increased a lot." Xu Yang thought to himself. Now adding totems is basically not difficult, and the proficiency of other methods has also increased a lot.
He withdrew his spiritual thoughts, stood up and picked up the corpse-driving bell on the altar.
Jingle Bell…………
Whoosh whoosh! ! !
There were sounds of breaking through the air, the wind was howling, and the candlelight in the room turned dim green.
Old Man Ren and the dwarf were wearing official uniforms, with green faces and fangs, standing in the front, with eight zombies behind them.
There was a ghostly shadow hovering in the gloomy wind above my head.
Cold winds, zombies, ghosts, and the weird ancestral hall... set off the eerie and terrifying Taoist priest in Yizhuang, who looks like the ghost king of hell.
