Master drank a glass of wine at the banquet and went straight back to the Taoist temple, while I was so drunk by a few enthusiastic villagers that I fell asleep on the table on the spot.

When I woke up, I found myself lying on a fluffy bed, and on a bed next to me lay the old village chief who was snoring. Only then did I remember that I had drunk too much and fell asleep before, and it was the old village chief who helped me back to his house.

The old village chief is almost old, but his body is very tough. Because his wife passed away early, he and his son depend on each other, and his son is now working outside, and he is alone at home.

I patted my drunken aching head, got up gently, walked over, picked up the old village chief's bed and covered it again. Then he tiptoed out of the old village chief's house.

I took out my phone and looked at it, and it turned out to be half past two in the morning. I hurried to prepare to rush back to the Taoist temple. Now that I've come back from out of town, I can't sleep in other people's homes, so it's better to sleep in my own room more comfortably and steadily. Besides, if I didn't come back so late, Master would definitely be worried, so I quickened my pace again.

As I was about to return to the temple, I saw from a distance that Master's room was still brightly lit. "Master, hasn't you rested so late? Are you worried about me? Thinking of this, I ran towards the Taoist temple excitedly.

"Elder Wang, I'll leave this matter to you." A deep, magnetic voice came from Master's room.

"Uh-huh, don't worry! It's on me. Please tell your patriarch, I will definitely do everything I can to find the Water Spirit Pill to save him. Master's old voice also came out.

"Patriarch? Which patriarch? Water elixir? What's that? I quietly crouched under the windowsill of Master's room with a full stomach full of suspicion, listening carefully to the conversation between Master and the mysterious man.

"Among the patriarchs is the Five Poison Corpse Oil Descending, and we have invited dozens of head descending masters from Nanyang, and they all say that there is no way to solve this kind of head reduction, unless they find the legendary Water Spirit Pill. But how can the water elixir be so easy to find! That's why I'm here to find you, Mr. Wang, I hope that Mr. Wang can look at the incident thirty years ago, and he must find the water elixir no matter what. The mysterious man said anxiously.

Master smiled at first, then nodded, "So he still remembers that incident thirty years ago?" Well! What a memory! Rest assured, I'll do what I say. ”

I quietly stood up and looked into the room through the crack in the window, where a man in a black leotard was sitting next to Master, but he had a mysterious mask on his face, and his face could not be seen clearly. But that mask glowed metallicly in the light.

Master held a teacup in his hand and looked at the mysterious man in the mask with a smile, I only then found that there was actually a three-pillar incense stick in front of the mysterious person, I wiped my eyes vigorously and looked again, and finally I could confirm that it was really a three-pillar incense stick in front of the mysterious person. The white smoke from the incense was digging into the hole in the mask on the mysterious man's face.

"Isn't this the etiquette of honoring the dead? Master, how could ... Could it be that the mysterious man in the house is not alive? I looked curiously at the mystery in the room and thought.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew and I couldn't help but sneeze. The mysterious man in the room shook his hand, and a cold white light shot at me with a piercing sound, and I hurriedly rolled over and dodged with a harrier.

"Who?" The mysterious man in the room shouted, and then several white cold lights flew towards me, this time several times stronger than before. Seeing that I couldn't hide, I hurriedly shouted, "Master, it's me!" ”

Another black shadow streaked in front of my eyes, and the cold white light was blocked by the black shadow. When I took a closer look, it turned out that the black shadow on the ground was the slippers that Master usually wore on his feet, and there were several cold and shining flying knives stuck in the slippers.

"Huh! What kind of throwing knife is this? Why have you never seen one? "I walked over to the wall, ready to pull out the throwing knife I had dodged earlier." Don't move, it's poisonous. The mysterious man in the room shouted so frightened that I hurriedly retracted my hand.

"Ji Liang! Your knives are getting more and more sophisticated. My apprentice barely managed to escape, but! Isn't your Soul Eater Knife a little too vicious? Master looked at the mysterious man with a reproachful tone.

The mysterious man looked at me and didn't speak, and I rolled out of the window and into the house. Came to him and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is so powerful, if it wasn't for the master's rescue just now, I'm afraid I would have gone to Huangquan with my life." Then he reached out to shake his hand. Unexpectedly, he didn't seem to look at my hand, but just said coldly: "It's okay." ”

Master pointed at me and smiled at him, "That's right, Ji Liang." This is my unsuccessful apprentice, and his current skills are not much different from mine. I smiled and nodded: "Hello, my name is Wang Youyu, it's a pleasure to meet you." He stood there and said without looking back: "Ji Liang." The tone and attitude were as cold as the winter wind.

At this time, the three-pillar incense in front of him was quickly burned, and the teacup in the master's hand was already empty. When I was about to help Master add some tea, Master waved his hand and said, "No need, You Yu, you can help me send Mr. Ji." ”

The mysterious man named Ji Liang stood up and arched his fists towards the master and said, "Elder Wang, I will leave first." He looked at me, then turned and walked out of the house. As he passed me, I could faintly feel the chill on his body.

I hurriedly followed his footsteps: "Mr. Ji, you go slowly!" He turned his head to look at me, nodded slightly, and then leaped into the air, and the sound of his clothes cutting through the air rang out, and his black figure had disappeared into the night sky.

I went back to the house and looked at Master curiously, "Master, what happened to that person named Ji Liang just now?" Why did you give him three pillars of incense? Aren't all living people offering tea? Master took out a box of cigarettes and handed me one, and then smoked it.

Under the light, the smoke slowly disappeared. Master threw down the cigarette butt and sat down and said to me, "That Ji Liang is not a living person, to be precise, he is just a walking dead with feelings. That's why I gave him three pillars of incense according to the custom of the dead. ”

I was even more curious: "He's actually the walking dead?" Looking at the strength of his throwing knife, he doesn't have that much strength and accuracy without decades of practice. Why did he come to Master so late? ”
