Just as Zhuge Zhengqi said, after arriving at Jiuta Station, He Yunshang got off the bus with the big man Gao Tianci.
Before getting off the train, the two of them came to our carriage and said they wanted to say goodbye to Mr. Beidou.
Fatty Qiu was too lazy to be polite to He, so he pretended to be asleep and passed away.
It took another two days and one night on the train. Late at night the next day, our group finally returned to Luoshen County.
I hurried back to the Taoist temple overnight. When I went up the mountain, I found that the mountain was covered with fog again that was exactly the same as when I first went up the mountain.
But I don’t know if it’s because of the magic in my body, but I can actually see the scenery in the mountains through the mist.
When I saw the place where I was separated from Fatty Wang, I felt a little uncomfortable.
If I had held back my pee, even if I peed my pants, today would be a different story.
I climbed to the Taoist temple gate at the top of the mountain in one breath, but the old Taoist priest and Zhuge Liujin did not come out to greet me.
The four of us pushed open the mountain door ourselves and walked in.
I walked into the Taoist temple again and looked at the deserted scene inside. I said to Zhuge Zhengqi:
"Brother, your master is too ungrateful.
Or did you forget to call your master in advance? You should take your brother out to greet him, right?
Even if I don’t welcome you and me, there is still a demi-god.”
The ugly Taoist priest smiled and shook his head and said:
"This is a deliberate attempt to avoid suspicion. According to the rules, except for the superiors and the mortals who store immortal magic, no one else can know what they are doing on this trip.
Even the superiors had to arrive at the scene before telling them the purpose of the trip.
My master is a serious old man and cannot let his superiors pick out this fault.
Until I return to heaven, my master and Gilded King will not show up."
After talking to me for a few words, Zhuge Zhengqi turned back to Xingguan, who was descending to earth for the first time and about to return to heaven to resume his life and said:
"Sir, you follow me here, this is the place where you descended to earth.
But this time the order is reversed, let the donor exchange the immortal magic back first. After you remove the immortal magic stored in your body, you can go back."
After Doujun Xingguan looked at the small room, he nodded and said to Fatty Qiu who had been accompanying him:
"Deputy Commander, thanks to your help this time, I have made a small contribution.
What I didn’t say is that I will be needed in the future when I am a little star official.
Write my name on a two-inch piece of yellow paper and burn it, and I immediately became possessed."
Qiu Beidou nodded, and then whispered to the star official:
"I won't give you any great achievements. If you can also find the forbidden door, you will be able to upgrade to at least three levels in a row.
Speaking of this forbidden door, Star Officer, after you return to Heaven, also ask him how someone found the forbidden door.
After you find out more about it, tell me in your dream."
Xingguan patted his chest and said:
"That's no big deal. As long as I find out clearly, I will report it to you, the deputy commander."
When the two of them talked about this, Zhuge Zhengqi pointed to the small room and said to me:
"Donor, you go first and remove the magic.
Everyone's method of removing the magic is different, and I can't say what you will encounter.
But don’t be afraid of anything. You are just returning things that do not belong to you. It will not cause any harm to you.
There is a stone step in the house, just sit on it and wait."
I glanced at the dark room, not knowing what I would encounter when I entered, and I felt a little nervous.
But this level has to be passed. After taking a deep breath, I walked into the small room.
Although it was pitch dark inside, I could still see a medium-sized stone platform in the house through the moonlight outside.
Just when I was about to take a closer look to see what else was in the room, Zhuge Zhengqi had already closed the door from the outside.
In the blink of an eye, the room was filled with darkness.
I groped my way to the stone platform and carefully sat on it.
After a while, nothing happened to me, and the magic was still in my body.
What does this mean? Does the immortal magic belong to me, so I don’t have to pay it back?
Just when I was thinking wildly, I suddenly smelled a faint fragrance filling the air.
Shortly after smelling the aroma, I also heard a "buzzing" sound in my ears.
It seemed like there were some kind of small flying insects flying around me, but I could only hear the sound but couldn't feel the presence of anything else.
After another ten minutes, I suddenly felt something like silk scratching my face.
Then, more and more 'silks' appeared out of thin air, spinning around on my body, as if wrapping me up.
At this time, I felt that my eyelids were tight, as if I hadn't slept for three days and three nights, and I was extremely sleepy.
This sleepiness is irresistible to humans. As soon as I closed my eyes, I knew nothing.
I don’t know how long I slept. When I woke up, I was back in the room where I first spent the night in the Taoist temple.
I lay on the camp bed and opened my eyes in a daze.
It was still pitch black outside, and I didn't know how long I slept, whether it lasted all day and all night, or just a few hours.
I felt my body first, and sure enough, the immortal magic had disappeared without a trace.
I got up from the camp bed dizzy, opened the door to get some air.
The courtyard of the Taoist temple is still empty. I don’t know if the gods have been sent back.
When I walked out of the yard, I smelled a strange stench.
This stench is indescribable. It is almost the opposite extreme of the aroma I smelled in the house before.
I retched several times and wanted to go back into the house to avoid the stench.
Unfortunately, after opening the door, the room was filled with this stench.
Finally, I strolled out of the Taoist temple, not believing that there was this smell in the mountains outside.
When I opened the door of the Taoist temple and walked out, I felt like I was back to the day I first came to the Taoist temple.
Countless little beasts, foxes, wolves, and rabbits gathered opposite the gate.
There are still many humanoid shadows, and the scene reappeared a few days ago.
At this time, Zhuge Zhengqi's voice sounded behind me:
"I heard the sound of walking in the yard, and I guessed that the donor was awake."
While I was talking, the ugly Taoist priest had already walked to my side.
He glanced at the beasts and figures in front of him with a smile, and before I asked, he took the initiative to explain and said:
"These are all spiritual beasts and dead souls on the mountain.
When the superiors return to heaven, they will disperse the immortal magic that has been contaminated by the mortal world. They are here to absorb these immortal magic."
