Chapter 36 The Heavenly Master Goes Down the Mountain
(ticket!)
The ban will automatically dissipate after two months!
After hearing the news, Minister Liu Jiang looked a little ugly. It turned out that there was no need to beg him at all. He would be fine after waiting for a while.
Unfortunately, Xu Xiang has been reinstated now, and if Xu Xiang has not made a big mistake, he can no longer attack him at will.
Xu Xiang's suspension and reinstatement this time has aroused the attention and curiosity of many people, and he is also afraid that he will fall into Zhang Song's hands again next time.
So Liu Jiang honestly handed over the information about Zhang Huaiyi that he had secretly intercepted some time ago to Xu Xiang.
Anyway, Zhang Huaiyi is not an easy man. Let these two groups fight. It would be best if both sides lose.
After Xu Xiang, who was restored to his original position, learned the news about Zhang Huaiyi, he did not send out all his personnel as vigorously as before. Instead, he selected a few reliable ones and let them disperse to find out the news.
The situation in the Northeast is special. They are not from the Xian family shaman lineage, so it is easy to tell.
Rather than casting a wide net for the other party to notice, it is better to conceal your whereabouts and notify the director after you are sure you have found the person.
Thinking of this, Xu Xiang couldn't help but send a letter to the Taoist priest explaining the current situation and speculation on Zhang Huaiyi's hiding place.
After writing the letter, Xu Xiang called a stranger to help him send the letter; at the same time, a similar letter was also sent, with the destination being Longhu Mountain.
.....
Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion
"Master, Xin."
After Fang Qianhe came in, he handed a letter to Zhang Zhiwei, then bowed and left the room.
Zhang Zhiwei frowned slightly after seeing the sender and address, and then opened the envelope. After he carefully read the contents, his face became a little more solemn.
Tian Jinzhong noticed that his senior brother didn't look very good, so he asked
"Senior brother, who sent the letter and what did it say?"
After Zhang Zhiwei put down the letter, he thought that he would have come to see his junior brother later. But now that he has opened the letter in front of his junior brother, it is impossible to hide it; he can only hope that his junior brother will not be too excited.
"The letter was sent by Liu Jiang, who came here a few days ago. He said in the letter that he had found the whereabouts of Junior Brother Huaiyi."
"What!? Junior Brother Huaiyi?"
Tian Jinzhong's face was slightly dazed, and his heart tightened.
"Have you found the whereabouts of Junior Brother Huaiyi? Where is he?"
"It's not accurate news, it's just speculation. Moreover, there is a group of people who are also searching for the big-eared thief."
Zhang Zhiwei saw the changes in Tian Jinzhong, but he thought that junior brother Jinzhong was just feeling guilty for not finding Zhang Huaiyi that year.
"Junior brother, you'd better see for yourself."
Zhang Zhiwei held up the letter in front of Tian Jinzhong, and after he read it, he put the letter aside.
"Senior Brother...that man has been looking for Junior Brother Huaiyi for more than twenty years. What is the reason for him?"
Tian Jinzhong asked worriedly
"Is it because of those amazing skills?"
"I don't know, but I have some impressions of this person..."
After Zhang Zhiwei saw Zhang Song's name, he slightly recalled what happened decades ago, when he and Tian Jinzhong went down the mountain together, but a few days later he returned to the mountain to recuperate due to injury.
After many inquiries and a letter from Lu Jin, he found out that the man he met was named Zhang Song. He was also a Taoist priest and had some connection with the Shangqing sect.
Now that I think about it, it's true. With the magic of Tongtian, it was possible to put that kind of ban on Liu Jiang.
But, what does this person want to do with Junior Brother Huaiyi? This person also has one of the Eight Miracle Skills. I guess he is not coveting the Eight Miracle Skills of Junior Brother Huaiyi.
"Junior brother, I'm going down the mountain."
"Are you looking for Junior Brother Huaiyi?"
Tian Jinzhong asked with some surprise. Senior brother has almost never gone down the mountain since he became a heavenly master.
"No, I'm just meeting an old friend and asking some questions. Let Youyi take care of you during this period. Qianhe wants to go down with me."
.......
After Zhang Zhiwei came down from the mountain, he took his eldest disciple Fang Qianhe and walked all the way to Qingshan Village according to the address provided by Liu Jiang.
When he first came here, Zhang Zhiwei was a little surprised by the affluence of the village. Every household was well-lived and well-dressed. Moreover, the roads in the village were clean and the people's customs were simple. Nothing near Longhu Mountain or even what he saw on the road was as good as here.
Because of the Qingshan Temple, people in the village had a good impression of the Taoist priests. When they saw two Taoist priests from other places coming here, everyone notified the village chief to come.
Then the village chief came here to ask about the purpose of his visit. When he learned that he was looking for the Taoist priest from Qingshan Temple, he immediately smiled and welcomed the two of them to his home to rest for a while.
However, Zhang Zhiwei thanked the village chief repeatedly for his kindness and just asked how to go up the mountain.
Seeing Zhang Zhiwei's resolute attitude, he seemed to have something urgent to do to find the Taoist priest. However, because he had other chores, he thought for a moment and called his eldest son and asked him to take the two Taoist priests up the mountain.
"Little brother, how long has Zhang Daoyou been living here?"
On the way up the mountain, Zhang Zhiwei asked the village chief's son who was leading the way. The village chief's son seemed taciturn, but he had a simple and honest face and was a young man who would not lie.
The village chief's son did not answer immediately, as if he was thinking
"I don't know, probably... decades ago. When I was a child, I heard my grandfather say that there was a Taoist temple on the mountain before I was born."
"Oh, that's long enough."
There was no words all the way. After walking for nearly two-quarters of an hour, they finally reached the top of the mountain. Zhang Zhiwei also felt a wave in front of him. Then he stopped and said to the village chief's son.
"Thank you for your hard work, little brother, just bring it here."
The village chief's son looked up and saw that there wasn't much road ahead. He could see the Taoist temple when he looked up, so he didn't insist on leading the way. It would be good to save some energy. He nodded and went back down the mountain.
Afterwards, Zhang Zhiwei led his disciples to the Taoist temple, gently opened the door and walked in.
However, this Taoist temple was beyond Zhang Zhiwei's expectation. Any house in the village at the foot of the mountain should be better than this Taoist temple. It's not that it is uninhabitable, it's just a bit crude.
After entering, Zhang Zhiwei saw a Taoist priest serving tea. His face was still the same as it was decades ago, but he looked a little older.
Zhang Song put down the teapot and looked at the two Taoist priests who came in. The old Taoist priest in front looked familiar. He had left an impression on Zhang Song. The one behind him looked like a follower, and he was not very powerful. Zhang Song took a few glances. Didn't pay attention.
When they were going up the mountain, Zhang Song felt the two peaceful waves in the Taoist temple, and knew that there were other strangers coming here. However, there was no hostility in the outside, so Zhang Song thought about it and made a pot of tea. Waiting for guests to come to your door.
"Fellow Taoist, I haven't seen you for decades, but you are still the same as before."
Zhang Song saw the old Taoist priest salute and said that he had obviously met before. He first returned the salute, and then tried hard to recall the news about this person in his mind. After thinking for a long time, he finally saw the old man's narrow eyes. At that moment, it overlapped with the image of a person in his mind.
