The shopkeeper claimed to be the apprentice that Liu Laodao had accepted in his early years, which surprised Xie Ling and me, and had mixed blessings.

Happily, now Xie Ling and I are in the predicament of being penniless and unrelated, and suddenly an apprentice accepted by Liu Laodao in his early years appeared, which is called the road of endless people.

The worry is that my cheap uncle has obviously caused a lot of trouble, in order to avoid the five thunderstorms in the sky, even the woman's sanitary napkin sticks to the head regardless of the filth, if we mix with him, it will be no good thing.

But Xie Ling and I don't have a choice, she is used to being pampered in Guiyunguan, and she can't stand hunger. Although she didn't say it, whenever she passed by a restaurant or snack bar, she looked inside with her eyes open, looking very pitiful.

The shopkeeper said that his name was Zhang Ming, and he was a registered disciple of Liu Laodao when he was mixed up on Silk Street in his early years.

"Senior sister, has the old man ever mentioned me?" Speaking of this, Zhang Ming asked.

"No,......," Xie Ling replied honestly.

Zhang Ming's face immediately became gloomy, and he said with a long sigh: "Alas, it seems that the master will not forgive me in this life." ”

Knowing that Xie Ling and I were still hungry, Zhang Ming decided to take us to dinner first and chat while eating.

The sanitary napkin on his head is really too much, so Zhang Ming found a hood to cover his head. When he left the store, he first looked at the sky very vigilantly. Seeing that the sky was clear and cloudless, he locked the door of the store with peace of mind and led us to a seafood restaurant at the entrance of Silk Street.

His behavior made me more and more curious about what he had done to hurt Yin morality.

Business in the shadows is not like a farmer's market, where the shops are deserted. But this is not in the way, the so-called three years do not open, open for three years. Yin Xing's bowl of rice is a big household, and only a big household will think of changing his life against the sky.

As for the poor, what they think about is how to survive.

Zhang Ming's popularity doesn't seem to be very good, and when he walks down the street, he doesn't even say hello. Not only did no one pay attention to him, but a few people saw him coming and closed the door of the store.

When he was about to walk out of Silk Street, an old fortune teller finally spoke: "Zhang Ming, you are a short-lived ghost, you don't sit in the store and wait for death, what are you shaking when you have nothing to do?" Do you want to harm the big guy and be robbed with you? ”

"It's a fine day today, it shouldn't be in the way, right?" Zhang Ming's tone was a little empty.

After saying that, he couldn't help but glance at the sky, which startled him on the spot, and let us run with him.

I looked up into the sky and immediately knew why he was so scared.

There was not a trace of cloud in the sky just now, but now there was suddenly a faint floating cloud. The floating clouds moved at high speed from the west, and the target was to catch up with Zhang Ming's head.

There is no doubt that behind the clouds there must be a thunderbolt.

Seeing that Zhang Ming had already entered the seafood restaurant at the corner of the street, I took Xie Ling's hand and decided to talk to the fortune teller first. This white uncle is obscene, and he has been chased by the thunder, and I am afraid that he will talk nonsense and coax us later.

"What the hell did he do, sir?" I asked.

"Relying on the killing spirit of Taoism, I forced to change the causal ending, which caused the disaster of thunder."

All kinds of cause and effect in the world are already predestined, and witnessing cause and effect can strengthen the Dao heart, but cause and effect can gain opportunities, and only forcibly reversing the cause and effect outcome is to be punished by heaven.

Unless it is like Buddhism, starting from the root of cause and effect, and slowly accumulating virtue by doing good deeds.

As for how Zhang Ming changed the causal ending, the fortune teller didn't mean to say anything, and we didn't have time to ask in detail.

Zhang Ming was waiting for us in the restaurants, looking frightened. When he saw us come in, he led us directly into the private room that was hugged us.

After Xie Ling and I had eaten and drunk enough, Zhang Ming lit a cigarette and began to tell his story.

This matter starts with the Nanzhou Supernatural Competition.

As mentioned earlier, there are many people in Nanzhou, there are many girls, and there are many supernatural events, and as long as the Yin people from all over the country have some real skills, they will want to come here to develop.

Maoshan Divine Arts, Traditional Taoism, Zhu Youke, Corpse Driver, Out of the Horse Immortal, Mr. Two Fingers, Miaojiang Witch Gu...... All kinds of yin people gathered in Nanzhou. Since the state weakened its crackdown on feudal superstition, the number of Yin people in Nanzhou has increased exponentially.

In the past, the Yin people could only be found in Silk Street in Nanzhou, but now, the Yin people have completely integrated with this big city, everywhere.

It stands to reason that there are more Yin people, and the supernatural events in Nanzhou City should be reduced, but this is not the case.

Driven by profits, many Yin people use the Yin arts they have mastered to do things that hurt heaven and reason, and gradually become an important source of supernatural events.

The harm of intrigue is more secretive, and it is difficult for the police to directly obtain evidence to hunt down the real culprit. Under the supervision of the supernatural department of the Ministry of State Security, the Yin people of Nanzhou City established the Yin People Alliance.

As long as you want to eat this bowl of rice in Nanzhou, you must be supervised and restricted by the Yin People Alliance. Since the establishment of the Yin Man Alliance, unnatural supernatural events have been greatly reduced.

Of course, the Yin Alliance is not only about restraint and discipline, but also attaches great importance to the cultivation and reward of Yin people.

Every year, the Yin Alliance will hold a supernatural competition, and those who perform well can not only get a huge bonus, but also get a certificate issued by the supernatural department of the Ministry of State Security.

The gold content of this certificate is very high, and with it, Yin people will no longer be classified as feudal superstition and poison, and they will become experts in folk customs.

"Senior sister, Master has always felt that I have lost his face, so I thought about winning the competition to get this certificate and win glory for him......"

"Don't be emotional, go on, brother. I'm curious about this paranormal contest, I want to know what the competition is about and how to determine the winner. Xie Ling interrupted him.

"Okay." Zhang Ming said a little depressed.

Next, Zhang Ming began to talk about the competition method of the supernatural competition.

The first is to register for the yin audition and qualify for the competition. Cultivators are eligible to participate in the supernatural competition as long as they condense their true qi, and as for other yin people, they will have a corresponding yin art assessment, and they can only participate after passing the level.

The content of the competition is to first count the supernatural events that occur in Nanzhou City and the surrounding suburban counties and rural areas, and then solve them by the participating Yin people, and finally divide the winners and losers according to the number of supernatural events handled.

The competition system is an elimination system, and only after one paranormal event has been perfectly solved can the next one be dealt with. Once you fail, you will be eliminated on the spot.

Given the constant flow of paranormal events, it is possible to happen at any time. So, the tournament has a duration of one month.

In other words, you can register for the competition at any time during the month, and then count the results at the end of the month.

Hearing this, I was a little excited, there are still ten days left in this month, and Xie Ling and I have the opportunity to participate.

Participating in the supernatural competition can not only satisfy my need for merit, but it is also a wonderful thing to have fame and fortune if I perform well.

And Xie Ling was obviously very excited, she was already very talented, competitive and strong-hearted, and the supernatural competition was a good opportunity to stand out.

Seeing me and Xie Ling eager to try, Zhang Ming was even more depressed.

"You two don't want to participate in the Paranormal Contest, do you?"

"Uh-huh, can senior brother take us to sign up?" Xie Ling nodded repeatedly.

"But what about me? No, I haven't even said anything about it. ”

"Oh, then you hurry up and take us to sign up."

Zhang Ming is very unlucky, he is a Taoist priest, and he has the cultivation of the second grade of true qi, and he can rely on his true qi to directly kill the yin spirit and ghost.

But the supernatural event he drew was a red soul asking for his life!

The red soul died with strange injustice, and after death, the heavens could not bear to scatter his body, and the underworld could not bear to arrest his soul, and allowed him to ask for his life in the world. If the Taoist priest dares to kill the red soul, not only will he lose his life, but in serious cases, he will also suffer the punishment of heaven!

"Uncle Shi, you're not going to kill the red soul, are you?" Hearing this, I couldn't help but ask.

"You guessed it."

"......" I was speechless.

"Senior brother, you are even better than Master!" Xie Ling simply gave him a thumbs up.

"Alas, if I fucking knew it was a red soul, I wouldn't dare to provoke it even if I gave up the game." Zhang Ming took a big sip of wine and said with remorse.

"The red soul's yin body is shrouded in a layer of red mist, you don't even know this, do you?" Xie Ling said.

"I know, but I was born red-green color blind."

When Zhang Ming said this, Xie Ling happened to be drinking water, and it all squirted out on the spot. And I sprayed it all over my face because I was sitting across from her.

He made us understand one thing, red-green color blindness is not only not suitable for driving, but also not for being a Taoist priest......
