Jiang Ming asked me what my real name was, which was within my understanding. After all, they were all veterans, and it was impossible for them to bring a stranger to the black-faced grandfather's birthday party for no reason.
So I hesitated for a moment and said, "I dare not hide it from you seniors, I am Zhang Wuxin from Shijiazhuang Yin Yang Store."
As soon as the name Zhang Wuxin was spoken, the surroundings instantly became silent.
Including Jiang Ming and Jiang Liang, all the exorcists looked at each other with strange expressions. After a while, the shop owner laughed and said: "People in the Yin Yang shop will also be chased by evil spirits? Little guy, are you afraid?
Are you kidding us?"
The woman looked solemn and said: "Can't Zhang Wuren and He Zhonghua deal with this evil spirit? If it doesn't work, Yu Buren is here. Why don't you rush to Hebei?"
I smiled bitterly, Lao Zhang, Lao He, and Yu Buren were all turned into bones and trapped on Hongxia Island. If I could ask for help from them, why should I be as disgraced as a bereaved dog?
Several diners were whispering nearby, and one person whispered: "Are we incurring a big trouble for the black-faced grandpa? The evil spirit that even the Yin and Yang shop cannot solve must be so ferocious."
Another person glanced at me secretly: "From my point of view, it's not necessarily true. As the saying goes, water from afar cannot quench thirst from afar. This little guy named Zhang Wuxin is not very talented. If he provokes serious evil spirits, their store will be very powerful."
The character won't be able to catch up for a while, so he can only run away in embarrassment and try his luck in Lushan Mountain."
Someone next to him echoed: "That's right! That must be the case. If even Zhang Wuren and He Zhonghua couldn't deal with the evil spirits, how could this little guy named Zhang Wuxin have a chance to escape here? I'm afraid he would have been swallowed up long ago. Since
That evil spirit can't even catch up to Zhang Wuxin, so it may not be that strong."
Everyone said something to each other, and then the tone gradually became more relaxed. But I was depressed with a dark face, okay, I admit that I can't compare to Lao Zhang and Lao He, and I am even worse than Yu Buren.
The building is so high.
But am I really that bad in their eyes?
Jiang Ming and Jiang Liang discussed it with several exorcists, and then decided that my skills were not good enough, and the demon Xie Sui who was chasing me behind my back was not a great guy.
So Jiang Ming said to me with a smile: "Since you are the person in charge of Yin Yang Shop, then we are not outsiders. We are from the same lineage of exorcism. Since you have asked us for help, we are the exorcists in Jiangxi."
No one will let you down."
I said seriously: "Senior, the evil spirit chasing me behind my back has a huge background. Even my two bosses..."
Before I finished speaking, the fat store owner interrupted me casually: "Don't worry, that evil spirit has a big background, and our exorcists in Jiangxi are not vegetarians. Now there are more than 200 exorcists in southern and northern Jiangxi.
Exorcists, and more than a hundred ghosts and living corpses that are allowed to exist, all want to celebrate the birthday of Grandpa Black Face. As long as we are here, no one can do anything to you."
I sighed and stopped talking. Exorcists are all very polite. If I continued talking, I would probably make them unhappy and offend someone for nothing.
Besides, the shop owner said that all the exorcists from southern and northern Jiangxi are here, and there are countless monsters and ghosts coming to celebrate the birthday of the black-faced grandfather. As the saying goes, a tiger can't hold off a pack of wolves, and if there are too many ants, it will kill the elephant.
No matter how powerful he is, without his evil spirit messengers, the realm of life and death, and the underworld people to help him, he may not be anywhere near as strong as he is.
What's more, everyone admires that mysterious black-faced grandfather so much. There are dragons and tigers hidden in the world. Who said that winning destiny can guarantee victory?
At that moment, I clasped my fists at everyone and said, "Then I'll thank you seniors for your help."
An exorcist said: "You, Zhang Wuren and He Zhonghua are brothers, so we can't be counted as seniors. If we really count, the two Jiang family are the real seniors."
Jiang Mingjiang Liang smiled and said: "Don't call us brothers old, we still want to live for a while longer."
Everyone joked for a while, and seeing that I looked tired, they quickly arranged food and bed for me. While I was eating and drinking like crazy, Jiang Ming told me that although my black-faced grandpa was old, he had a kind-hearted personality and finally
Enjoy helping others.
On weekdays, if someone asks for help from him, as long as the person has an upright heart and has never done anything bad, he will do his best to help and will never ask for anything in return.
So Jiang Ming told me not to feel guilty. After all, we are all members of the exorcist family. If evil spirits are chasing the exorcists, we cannot stand by and watch anyway.
I was secretly moved in my heart and thought that although there are not many great exorcists in Jiangxi, they are all chivalrous and courageous, and have a warm heart. It is this group of people who have maintained the road of exorcism in the country.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but ask: "Senior, I would like to take the liberty to ask, who is this black-faced grandfather?"
Jiang Ming was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter and said, "You haven't heard of Grandpa Black Face? No wonder, Grandpa Black Face never cares about those reputations, so apart from us exorcists in southern and northern Jiangxi, there are very few
Few people know his name. Since you asked, I will tell you so as not to offend some taboos of the black-faced grandpa."
I nodded hastily. Some exorcists have weird personalities and always have taboos of one kind or another. If I had known about them earlier, I could have avoided unnecessary conflicts.
Speaking of this black-faced grandfather, he is not actually an exorcist, but a big black pig that has become a climate. This big black pig was born in the Kangxi era, and his whole life was chaotic and he didn't know why.
Later, I don’t know which year, the earth dragon turned over, which was the so-called earthquake. The mountains shook and collapsed. There happened to be a mountain blocking the water of Poyang Lake.
As the saying goes, blessings never come in pairs, and misfortunes never come alone. When the mountain collapsed, the floods from Poyang Lake were released. But at this time, it rained heavily again, and it did not stop for several days. As a result, the floods raged around the entire Lushan Mountain, and countless people were killed by the floods.
hand.
The imperial court sent water conservancy officials to control floods, but unexpectedly a crocodile turned into a spirit and lurked in the water to catch residents who fell into the water. After the water conservancy officials arrived, they hid in the water, attacked ships, and even came ashore to eat people.
The local county magistrate organized many brave men and women to catch this big crocodile, but no one succeeded in catching this big crocodile, but every time they lost their troops and returned home defeated.
This big crocodile was angry that the county magistrate dared to attack him, so he became more aggressive. At first, he only ate people to fill his stomach, but in the end, he even took pleasure in eating people.
With such a monster around, the water conservancy officials are helpless. After all, they have to conduct on-site surveys to find ways to control floods. Now that they don't even dare to pour water, how can they talk about controlling floods?
Seeing more and more homeless people, the water conservancy officials couldn't sit still and took the risk to take a thickened boat to check the water damage. Then of course, they were spotted by the big crocodile.
Water conservancy officials were well prepared and worked together to drive away the crocodiles, but the ship had to run aground and stopped near Lushan Mountain.
The officials braved the wind and rain and climbed up the mountain in embarrassment, but how could they compare to the big crocodile? At that moment, the big crocodile was chasing after them. If they caught up with one, they would bite one to death. If they caught up with another, they would kill another.
Kill one.
Just when everyone was panicking, a big black wild boar rushed out of the mountain forest, smashing the vegetation wherever it went, and it was extremely powerful.
At that time, the water conservancy officials were stunned and secretly told me that I was going to die. There were wild boars in front of me and crocodiles behind me. Everyone fell into despair.
Who would have thought that the big wild boar just raised its eyes and glanced at everyone, then passed the water conservancy official and ran over them due to its huge body.
The pig and the crocodile were both huge creatures. When they fought, the mountains collapsed and the ground broke apart. Everyone was so stunned that they forgot to escape for a moment.
The big wild boar has extremely hard skin and sharp tusks on its mouth. The most important thing is that it seems to be smarter than the crocodile. It does not rely entirely on brute force in battles.
Anyway, the two sides fought back and forth, and the big wild boar gradually gained the upper hand. The two sides fought until dusk, when the big wild boar pierced the neck of the big crocodile with its tusks, becoming the final winner.
It was only then that the big wild boar staggered up to the water conservancy officials. It looked down at the stunned water conservancy officials and said in human words: "Everyone, I helped you, are you willing to help me once?"
?”
The official was stunned for a long time. Hearing this, he hurriedly said with a trembling voice: "What does your Majesty want from us? As long as we can do it, we will do our best!"
The big wild boar grinned, full of humanity. It said: "I heard that the flooding in Poyang Lake is serious. I am willing to dig into the mountains and rocks to help the local people live and work in peace and contentment. I just ask the Shangguan to write a memorial and make me the black god of the mountain. I am willing to
Guard Lushan forever and ever, and refuse to do the slightest bad thing!"
When the water conservancy official heard this, he agreed on the spot without hesitation. Just now he saw that the flood was serious, and he needed a powerful being to help open the mountains and crack the rocks.
Now that the big black pig had volunteered, of course he had to agree hastily.
Anyway, he only needed to write a memorial and send it to heaven. As for whether Emperor Jiaqing would ban him or not, it was none of his own business.
This water conservancy official did his duty conscientiously. With the help of the big black pig, after calming down the flood, he handed a memorial to the then Emperor Jiaqing.
The memorial clearly stated the achievements of the big black pig, and it also explained that the big black pig was never willing to harm even half of the people, but was willing to protect one side.
After reading it, Emperor Jiaqing pondered for a long time, and then with a stroke of his pen, he made the big black pig a black god of mountain control, guarding Lushan forever.
This big black pig is now the black-faced grandpa.
After listening to it, I felt a lot of emotion in my heart. The black-faced grandpa can actually reach this point, which is actually quite impressive. It was given the title of Emperor Jiaqing, which means it has actually got rid of its identity as a monster and become a small god.
As long as it lasts, there won't be any monsters and ghosts near Lushan Mountain that dare to cause trouble. If this is the case, it may be possible to block Ying Tian's destiny.
