Listen carefully, there are also sounds of gongs, drums and shouts in the wind.
Every house in Bazhou City is closed.
Even the most naughty children dare to hide under the quilt and tremble at this time, because since they were born, what these children have heard the most is: 'Don't cry, if you cry, you will be thrown out and the evil spirits will take you away.
'
Yes.
The voice shouting that Yang Ren should be avoided is not a human voice, but comes from the underworld.
If someone opened the window and looked outside, they would see three thousand Yin soldiers with flags flying, slowly entering the city surrounded by a large sedan.
The sedan was so big that it was carried by sixty-four evil ghosts. It was a sedan, but it was basically a palace.
It's just different from what everyone thinks.
The palace carried by evil spirits is not gloomy, but sacred and shining.
A group of Yin soldiers beat gongs and drums and marched towards the palace.
Look closely.
There were many soldiers holding banners and flags high.
This flag is raised: 'The Yin God guards the Yang.'
The one holding up the flag: 'Justice and impartiality.'
Look again.
The Bazhou City God is as powerful as a prison, he can judge yang and yin, and he can check everything. There are more banners and flags of this type.
"Zhang Chenghuang rescues those who are in distress. He is brave enough to deal with yin and yang. Bless you, bless you. May the weather be good this year, and may my brother who is the bodyguard be safe."
There is fear.
Of course there is respect.
There are many people in the city who offer incense to the City God. Even some middle- and lower-class warriors who are used to licking blood from their swords will offer statues of the City God in their homes for no other reason than to one day suffer a sudden and violent death.
If you can be selected by the City God, you can enter the City God's temple as a Yin soldier and continue to protect your family.
certainly.
Only the middle and lower class warriors are like this. The most powerful people who have understood the true meaning of martial arts regard themselves as gods and disrespect the world. They do not think that being a Yin military commander in the City God's Division is a good place to go.
The strong have their own way of dying.
It was vigorous when alive, but turned into dust and smoke after death.
When the Lord enters the city, he sits down and acts as someone else's pawn. If he speaks out, he will be ashamed of his colleagues.
"Zhang boldly!"
"Zhang boldly!!"
The palace sedan has just entered the city.
Just as he was about to go to Bazhou City God's Mansion, a low voice sounded from all around.
In the palace sedan, Zhang Chenghuang and Master Zhang were sleeping soundly.
Hearing the call, an excited spirit sat up from the bed and suspiciously asked the ghost maid who was accompanying him: "Did you hear the sound?"
"Master, this slave didn't hear anything."
The maid wore a bellyband and looked respectful.
After hearing that the maid said she didn't hear any sound, Zhang boldly turned over and lay down again, muttering: "What a ghost, I seem to hear my senior brother calling me."
"How brave of you."
"I don't even practice Qigong, I just feel lazy all day long."
The sounds came from all directions again.
Zhang boldly opened his eyes suddenly, feeling a little uncomfortable: "Senior brother, is it you? Don't scare me. You know me. I'm not that courageous."
Woo woo woo
Suddenly a spring breeze came, and thousands of trees and flowers bloomed.
Zhang DaDa quickly raised his eyes and looked up.
Enter the eyes.
The surrounding space rippled like water waves, and then opened from it, and a young Taoist wearing a white robe with red edges and a hairpin on his head walked out.
"Teacher, senior brother!"
Saw someone coming.
Zhang DaDa was stunned for a moment, then shook his head fiercely.
After going back and forth to make sure that he was not dreaming, he stared and said, "Senior brother, it's really you. I thought I was hallucinating."
Said.
Zhang Dabao was a little unsure: "Brother, aren't you enjoying the blessings in the immortal world? Why did you come to the Sanyang world?" He muttered in a low voice: "Could it be that you were corrupted and were driven down?"
"You're so corrupt."
Zhang Heng said angrily: "I came to see Master, and I came to see you by the way."
Finished.
Zhang Heng looked at Zhang DaDang again.
There is no change in this guy. Even the scarlet city god's official robe looks a bit nondescript and indescribably funny when worn on him.
And judging from the aura on his body.
The incense is rich and the divine light shines everywhere.
No need to ask, he has given up on practicing the Dharma and has switched to cultivating incense and becoming a Shinto.
Of course, this is what should be done.
When it comes to cultivation, Zhang DaDa’s talent for cultivation is just that, and he can’t achieve much by correcting the method.
It is better to take the road of incense and become a god.
You know, now that Maoshan has opened up the Yin Division, it is bound to take control of the Netherworld.
Over the course of time, Yin Earth has the power, and there are as many incense as there are. It is almost certain that in the future, Maoshan will inevitably have Shinto and Immortal ways running side by side.
for example.
Disciples join the sect and practice the path to immortality, but the path to immortality is difficult and many disciples with low qualifications cannot go far at all.
what to do.
First-rate talents cultivate immortality, while second-rate and third-rate talents turn to Shintoism and practice with the help of incense.
The time is still short, so there is no improvement.
In the future.
Judging from this development, it is impossible to say that Maoshan will produce one or two Shinto greats from Shinto.
Just saying that.
Whether to come out or when to come out, that is the question.
One million years, ten million years, or one hundred million years.
Or in the next era, no one can predict this, but there is some hope.
"You are rich now."
Zhang Heng looked at the decorations in the palace sedan: "There are loud gongs and drums coming in and out, and maids as companions. I heard from the master that you still like to dress up as an old man and bring opportunities to some unlucky people. What, you also want to accept a disciple?"
"That's not true."
Zhang DaDang stood by and laughed: "I am only half a bucket of water myself, so there is no need to teach someone a half bucket of water. At most, I just want to see who pleases me and give me some benefits to relieve my boredom."
There was a pause.
Zhang Bingdao couldn't help but ask again: "Brother, how are you in the fairy world? Isn't the fairy world very fun, just like the legend, full of opportunities, singing and dancing all day long?"
He gave Zhang DaDa a playful look.
It is true that opportunities are everywhere. Compared with the lower world, there are more opportunities in the fairy world.
But the question is, are those opportunities yours?
Fairyland.
It is a paradise for the strong and a hell for the weak.
Especially for some low-level immortals, if they could talk to themselves thousands of years ago, many people would only have four words left: "Don't ascend."
"There are many opportunities in the fairy world, and the pressure of competition is also great."
"It's okay for those who ascended in the Great Thousand World, but if they are only ascended in the Middle Thousand Realm, or even those in the Small Thousand Realm."
"You are the overlord in the lower realm, a genius you have never met in ten thousand years, but when you get to the fairy world, you will find that people like you are everywhere in the fairy world."
"So what if you ascend? When you are in the lower realm, you may be invincible at the same level, and you can even fight across levels, attracting everyone's attention."
"But here you can only be at the bottom. Many people can't stand this contrast. They live in confusion all day long. They work for ten immortal stones a day, rest for three days a day, and buy wine when they have a small amount of money. What's the point of being drunk in life?
nonsense."
Zhang Heng also lamented: "You and I are lucky. The ancestors worked hard enough to have a place to stay. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't even be able to see me. I'll be like those paupers, running to plant peanuts in the spiritual world of plants and trees."
I went there, I heard that they work nine to seven, only work ten hours a day, and can get fourteen fairy stones, this job is very popular."
ah
Zhang DaDa's whole body wilts.
The fairy world in his imagination is rich and majestic, with immortals singing and dancing, holding tea ceremonies all day long, or traveling around and enjoying themselves.
Now it seems that is not the case.
Especially the low-level immortal, why does he sound the same as before?
in those days.
He drives carts for people in Dagou Town, makes daily settlements, orders drinks on time, and occasionally eats two pieces of pork head.
Going round and round, we are back again.
"What, you don't believe it?"
Seeing that Zhang DaDa was doubtful, Zhang Heng said with a smile: "Heavenly Court has done statistics and found that among all walks of life, the happiness index of Zhongqian World is the highest."
"As long as you become an immortal, you will have a life span of ten thousand years. This kind of cultivation may not be enough in other places, but in the Zhongqian world where the upper limit is the heavenly immortal, the true immortal is already an overlord-like existence. He has dignity and face. I think
If you want to make progress, you can continue to practice hard. If you don't want to make progress, you can travel around, take care of your family, and enjoy the happiness of family."
"Where's the Little Thousand Worlds?"
"You can't become an immortal, the upper limit of your life span is too low."
"Where is the world?"
"There is a serious lack of sense of security. In a survey, it was even found that 95% of the angels consider themselves insecure."
"Let alone the original world like the fairy world."
"It's hard for a golden immortal to shake. There are people covering you. You can barely be considered a giant. If no one is covering you, you are just a stick."
Zhang Heng felt inspired and said: "It's better to be here with you. With the cultivation of a true immortal, the city god of the state under the Three Yang Realm, plus the support of the Yinsi system, with the support of Master and Uncle Jiu, I can do whatever I want without any worries."
I was worried, so I almost didn’t go sideways.
Zhang DaDa nodded repeatedly.
The fairy world is too dangerous and not suitable for an honest child like him.
He should stay well in the Sanyang Realm. It would be best if he paddles next to his master.
"Ah Heng."
Just thinking about it.
Master Xu also came with Uncle Jiu.
I haven’t seen him for a long time, but now Uncle Jiu is dressed in red and purple, looking like a great mage.
Look further back.
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai were not there, and following behind them was a little Taoist boy of thirteen or fourteen years old.
"Uncle Master, have you accepted another apprentice?"
Zhang Heng stepped forward and saluted.
“You can’t miss good talents and beautiful jade.”
Uncle Jiu seemed very happy: "This is my new disciple from the Three Yang Realm, and he is born with a thunder body. He is the best one to pass on my mantle."
Natural thunder body!!
Zhang Heng took another look at the little Taoist boy.
There is a little thunder mark on his forehead, his eyes are clear and resolute, and he looks like a good young man who is cultivating Taoism.
Think again about Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai.
Zhang Heng also shook his head.
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai were unreliable when they were young. Although they changed a lot when they grew up, got married, and started a career, because they missed too much homework when they were young and were not naturally gifted, they are now as bold as Zhang.
After practicing Shintoism, being a city god in Huangtu Realm is not enough to pass on the mantle of Uncle Nine.
"Fang Wuyang, I have met senior brother."
He saw Zhang Heng looking at him.
The little Taoist boy also hurried forward to salute.
"Yes, our uncle has a successor."
Zhang Heng took out two fairy fruits as a greeting gift and warned: "You are still young, so you don't have to be obsessed with improving your magic power. Instead, you should read more Taoist canons and increase your knowledge, because magic power can be used with various elixirs and heavenly substances."
The improvement of material and earth treasures is a very simple matter in terms of spiritual practice."
"Thank you, senior brother."
Fang Wuyang took the fairy fruit respectfully, and then stood behind Uncle Jiu with a calm expression.
Uncle Jiu glanced at Fang Wuyang with satisfaction, and then explained to Zhang Heng: "In fact, I want to give this child Wu Yang to your Uncle Star Reacher to train, but he doesn't want to accept a disciple before he can be promoted to an immortal.
Soon, he was busy in retreat to consolidate his cultivation, so he became my disciple."
Uncle Star Reacher!
Hearing this name, a smile appeared on Zhang Heng's face.
In the past, when I was in the Republic of China.
Not long after he first started practicing Buddhism, he was shocked to see Taoist Master Zhaixing and regarded him as an idol.
Not an exaggeration.
If it weren't for him, among the modern disciples of Maoshan, Taoist Master Zhaixing would have been the most outstanding.
Just speaking of talent.
In Zhang Heng's opinion, Zhang Jingrui from Longhu Mountain and Xuan Qingzi from Gelao Mountain are not as good as his uncle, the Star Reacher.
of course.
Taoist Taoist Catcher has just been promoted to Heavenly Immortal, seemingly a little later than Zhang Jingrui and the others.
But to be honest, this is not because people in the Star Reaching Way are inferior to other people, but because they don’t have the ancestors from the upper world to help them.
Once Zhang Jingrui ascended to heaven, he followed Tianshi to practice.
Xuan Qingzi was similar, studying the Dharma beside the little immortal.
Where is Uncle Star Reacher?
At present, Maoshan is conquering the Yin Division, and the ancestors have many affairs, and he has also taken up the post of Yin God and is busy.
In addition, there is no personal guidance from Da Luo.
Rao is so.
He still relied on his own talent to achieve the status of an immortal only half a step too late.
Such talent.
It's too far away to say.
In the future, a Taiyi Zunzun will be indispensable.
"Uncle Master."
"We have been close since we were in the lower world. We are one family and do not speak the same language."
"I'm coming down this time, firstly to visit Master, and secondly to bring you some resources."
"The situation in the fairy world is complicated, and within the sect alone, there are not many people I can rely on."
"So you can feel free to use these elixirs and magic weapons."
"Don't feel like you're taking advantage of me. I'm still waiting for you, uncle, to help me control the sect after you improve your cultivation."
Zhang Heng looked serious.
It is true that his status in Maoshan in the Immortal Realm is quite high. Many people regard him as the successor of the Jade Ax Patriarch. Once the Jade Ax Patriarch succeeds in taking the position of Da Luo, he will take over the leadership position.
But you can know your own affairs.
After all, he has only been practicing for a short time, and he is not from the immortal world, so he has no foundation in the sect.
The simplest example.
The example of this generation of immortal sects, the ten outstanding disciples of the sect, all came from the earthly immortal world, and they were only familiar with him, not close to him at all.
Even to some people, Zhang Heng can even be considered an outsider, because he is from the ancestral land and is not from the earthly immortal world.
Now that Zhang Heng has been promoted, he was quickly designated as Taozi, the future successor to the headmaster.
These people say they are convinced, but in their hearts.
And Zhang Heng is also busy.
He has a part-time job in Tianji Mansion, and he has no intention of living and eating with these people and cultivating relationships from scratch.
What to do if this happens?
Answer: 'Get a few of your own to be among the top ten outstanding disciples.'
Imagine if Master Zhaixing, Jiu Shu, and Zhenren Xu were all on the list of the top ten outstanding disciples.
Zhang Heng no longer has such worries.
Same reason.
If the top ten outstanding disciples are promoted further, they will become the elders of the Immortal Sect.
One hundred years is not enough, just one thousand years.
If one thousand years is not enough, then ten thousand years.
Uncle Jiu and the others had reached high positions in the sect, so Zhang Heng no longer had to worry about not having people close to him to help him.
All kinds of things.
Zhang Heng talked a lot with Master and Uncle Jiu.
more than this.
Taoist Priest Four Eyes, Taoist Qian Zhenren, Taoist Qianhe, Taoist Yimei, and Taoist Exorcist also talked about the whereabouts of these uncles.
Ask yourself mindfully.
Are these people bad?
They are all Maoshan heroes of the same generation as Xu Zhenren and Jiu Shu. How can they be different from those who can achieve great fame in the era of Dharma Ending?
Come back and gather more.
Zhang Heng has many ways to make money, and these juniors and uncles have watched him grow up, so it wouldn't be too much for him to be more filial.
As for the Jade Ax Patriarch.
There are no factions within the sect, and there are all kinds of strange things.
Although it is still early to establish a separate Shantou, Zhang Heng believes that it is necessary to establish a small circle of his own to facilitate taking over government affairs in the future.
after all.
It is true that he is the descendant of the Jade Ax Patriarch, but a close confidant of the Jade Ax Patriarch may not be his confidant.
Zhang Heng traveled all over the country.
The thing I learned the most is: 'Don't trust people easily.'
