Chapter 143: You Go Your Way
I didn't expect this to have something to do with Maoshan again. Probably because of Chen Yuande's incident back then, my impression of Maoshan was extremely poor.
However, he was most concerned about the dead face, and couldn't help asking: "What about Mr. Zhong?" ”
The old camel glanced at me, but didn't say anything, and after a while, said: "The one surnamed Zhong is also fateful, and he actually let him escape, and then I somehow found out that he joined the Mountain God Society." So he desperately came to the door to seek revenge. ”
I thought to myself, at that time, the dead man heard that the old camel had joined the Mountain God Society, thinking that he had harmed his wife and children in order to save his life, and it would be strange not to look for him to fight hard.
The old camel snorted and said, "This surnamed Zhong is also a genius, and he actually used a few pages of fragments of "Shuzang" collected at home to find out some strange magic numbers by himself. With these half-baked Qimen formations, he actually let him continue to attack and kill many leaders of the Mountain God Society. At that time, the teacher was serving by the warlock's side, and he had no time to separate, and later heard that the mountain god would send someone to surround and suppress the person surnamed Zhong, but since then the surname Zhong suddenly disappeared without a trace. ”
Hearing this, the old camel stopped, and I was curious for a moment, and I couldn't help asking, "What happened?" ”
The old camel suddenly laughed, and laughed for a while before he said: "I don't know where he went when I was a teacher, but after many years, I learned that this person secretly went to Maoshan to apprentice." ”
I was taken aback and resisted the urge to interject. The old camel laughed enough. Only then did he continue: "Although this surnamed Zhong realized some techniques by himself back then, after all, his foundation was shallow and he couldn't achieve great success, so he thought of going to Maoshan to learn Maoshan techniques. This person's talent is really good, and he was included in the door wall by a scattered person named Ji Hanguang in Maoshan at that time. ”
When I heard this, I couldn't help but feel a little strange. I really know this "scattered person", I once heard Ma Boss talk about it. The people in this sect are usually divided into two types: monk disciples and lay disciples. The meaning of these two is very clear, a monk is a bull like Chen Yuande who has become a Taoist priest, and Jiang Chuhong, who has entered the Taoist sect but is still in the world, is a lay disciple. In addition to these two, there is also a type called sanren.
As the name suggests, a scattered person is a person who is scattered, although he has graduated from a certain sect, he has broken away from the control of this sect and lives in various places as a loose cultivator.
Since this season Hanguang is a casual practice. How could he live in the ancestral courtyard of Maoshan Mountain, and he also put the face of a dead man into the door wall.
The old camel was a little surprised, and said, "You have seen a lot of knowledge outside all these years. ”
I bowed my head slightly. Say: "That is, hearsay".
The old camel said: "Don't you think it's strange, how can Hanguang be a scattered person this season, how can he accept apprentices in the Maoshan Ancestral Garden?" In fact, this matter is also simple, although this season Hanguang is a scattered person. However, he was originally a Taoist boy who grew up in Maoshan since he was a child, and he also broke away from the master because of an incident in recent years, and has a close relationship with the ancestral court of Maoshan, and will also go to Maoshan from time to time. I happened to meet the door-to-door apprentice surnamed Zhong, this season Hanguang just didn't accept apprentices, seeing that the qualifications of this surname Zhong were excellent, and seeing the joy of hunting, he accepted him as an apprentice. ”
"At that time, Ji Hanguang happened to have something to do and stayed in the ancestral court of Maoshan. So the surnamed Zhong also followed him to study in the mountains for nearly half a year. This surnamed Zhong has been taught by Hanguang this season, and his cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds, especially for the number of techniques, and he has a deep understanding. ”
Hearing this, I felt that something was wrong. At that time, I took out the notes of the dead man's face and showed it to Aoko, and after reading it, Aoko said, "This person should be a spell of the Masaya school that he stole to learn." Qingzi's vision will never be wrong, but listening to this old thing, this dead face is a serious Maoshan disciple. Why go to school?
These two statements are clearly contradictory.
At this time, the mountain road ahead suddenly opened up, and it had already entered a concave valley. The old camel walked inside, and I looked at the terrain around me. Then followed.
After entering the valley, the environment on both sides has changed, and the ancient trees are standing and the cold air is cold. In this summer, there is still a hint of cold. The old camel said: "As soon as half a year passed, Ji Hanguang's affairs in Maoshan were finished, so he took him, a newly recruited apprentice, back home. ”
Speaking of which, the old camel did not say anything. He looked at me and said, "Boy, you might have guessed what wonderful things happened behind me?" As he spoke, his eyebrows fluttered, as if he had thought of something that he couldn't help but enjoy.
This old thing is really sick. Judging from the previous situation, it seems that the more unlucky the dead face is, the more he gloats, and when he says this, it is about the dead face that has encountered something embarrassing.
I pondered, my heart suddenly moved, I thought of something, and I couldn't help but lose my voice: "It won't be ......" As soon as the words came out, I held back and swallowed back.
The old camel suddenly burst into a burst of violent laughter, leaning forward and backward with laughter, and finally restrained it, clutching his stomach and saying, "Good boy." Attaboy! Did you guess it, hahaha, you say, did you guess it? ”
This old thing is really not your average weirdness. Seeing that I didn't respond, he suddenly stopped laughing, grinned, and said, "The one surnamed Zhong arrived at Master's house, and then went to meet Master's wife." So you know...... Hahaha. Hahaha, it's ridiculous...... Hahaha......"
I couldn't help but feel a little sad when I looked at the old camel. I have just guessed that the Maoshan Taoist priest who saved his wife and daughter with a dead face back then was this Ji Hanguang.
The old camel leaned forward and leaned back with laughter, and told the rest of the story intermittently, laughing so hard that his face was red and his ears were red, and he trembled.
The wife that Dead Face was visiting at that time, Dead Man's wife, Zhang, was taking his daughter to prepare a meal for his new apprentice. I haven't seen him for a few years, but my wife has actually turned into my own teacher, which can imagine what a heavy blow this was to the dead face at that time.
The details at that time were unknown to outsiders, but about a month later, Zhang suddenly died mysteriously and suddenly, and the dead face fought with his master Ji Hanguang. At that time, it was rumored that Zhang's death was the secret hand of the dead face, and Ji Hanguang was furious and chased after the face for thousands of miles.
The dead man hid in Tibet, and used various means, either by stealing or robbing, to plunder some secret copies of spells from Maoshan and Qingwei factions, and studied them hard. One day, the dead face tried his best to set up a series of killings, taking advantage of Ji Hanguang to go out. A surprise attack trapped him in the battle for ten days and ten nights, and finally killed him. As soon as this incident came out, the rumors spread very strongly at that time. Maoshan Zuting was also furious. Countless elite disciples were dispatched to search for the whereabouts of the dead man's face.
It's just that the dead face has since disappeared without a trace, never to be seen again.
After listening to this secret story of the year, my heart was turbulent, and I couldn't calm down for a long time. I didn't expect this dead face to encounter such a tragedy, no wonder I saw it later, and it became such a zombie face.
was in a trance, and suddenly woke up: "This old camel is so dignified, it's a little strange to tell me such a long old story." "I peeked at this old thing, and saw this man walking on the mountain road with a hunched back, and from time to time let out a burst of piercing laughter, but there was no trace of joy on his face, and he couldn't help but feel strange.
I didn't dare to say anything more, so I walked out of the road silently for a while, when I heard the old camel suddenly let out a long sigh. I didn't know what he was going to do, so I heard him ask, "When did you see Zhong with the surname Zhong?" ”
I hesitated, but told the truth: "About five or six years ago. ”
The old camel let out an "oh", and after a while, he said: "This person is willing to teach you, but it is also rare, it seems that your qualifications are indeed good, and I will cultivate you well for the teacher this time." ”
I hastened to thank you. The old camel walked forward and said lightly: "This person has taught you for a few months, where did you go after?" ”
I hesitated, but said, "This man is dead." As soon as I finished speaking, the figure in front of me flickered, and a sharp pain suddenly came from my neck, which was clasped by a withered paw of the old camel.
"What do you say? You repeat? I'm not dead, how can someone surnamed Zhong die? There's no way he's going to die! The old camel had an old face, distorted like a demon, and his eyes were bloodshot, as if he wanted to choose someone to eat.
