Chapter 781: The Mystery Appears
"By the way, Xiaolong, let me tell you, your Grandpa Zhao is the gatekeeper of our Tianji Gate, and he has been coming to the Taoist Temple for a longer time than me, it should be fifty years, right?"
Xuanse Daoist introduced again.
"It's not just fifty years, it's been fifty-six years, and in a few years, I guess I'll die of old age here."
Zhao An replied with a smile.
"Uncle Zhao, what you said, you are still young, you can live for at least another hundred years."
The Xuanse Daoist smiled and complimented.
"Come on, I'm not a king, how can I live so long."
Zhao An waved his hand.
"No one else can't, but it's not easy for you."
Xuan Se smiled and slapped a sycophant, and then changed the conversation and said, "Uncle Zhao, is my junior brother back?" ”
"I didn't see him anyway, wasn't he with you?"
Zhao An replied.
"No, who knows where he died. I won't tell you yet, I should go and sweep my master's grave, and we'll talk when I come back later. ”
Considering that it was not too early, Xuan Se said goodbye to Zhao An first.
"Okay, okay, you guys hurry up, I've already gone to see your master in the morning, so I won't accompany you."
Zhao An replied.
Afterwards, Xuan Se asked Qin Xiaolong to put his luggage in the inner hall of the Taoist temple, and then took Qin Xiaolong to the back mountain.
"Uncle Shi, that Grandpa Zhao should also be a hidden powerhouse like a sweeping monk, right?"
On the way to the cemetery, Qin Xiaolong couldn't help but ask the words that he had been holding back for a long time.
Zhao An looked estimated to be eighty or ninety years old, but he didn't have a bit of the rotten aura of old age on his body.
And he can also see at a glance that he is not good, which shows that the other party is definitely not an ordinary person.
"You guessed right, Uncle Zhao's cultivation is still above me, I estimate that he is very likely to have reached the Divine Treasure Realm."
Xuan Se said in a deep voice.
"I'll go, Grandpa Zhao is the real boss."
Hearing this, Qin Xiaolong was also surprised.
Reaching the Divine Treasure Realm can open the Divine Treasure in the body, allowing people to have unpredictable abilities.
Because of this, this realm is also known as a demi-immortal.
It is no exaggeration to say that the powerhouses of the Divine Hidden Realm can easily kill a group of ordinary people with a single look, and in their eyes, everyone is an ant!
Especially in this era of the end of the law where immortals have become legends, the Divine Treasure Realm is almost the pinnacle of cultivators, and they can completely ignore the rules of this world and become the controller of order!
"Uncle Shi, you just said that Grandpa Zhao is the gatekeeper of our Tianji Gate, so is he a member of our Tianji Gate?"
Qin Xiaolong asked another question again.
"People are just obliged to watch the door for us, and he doesn't belong to our Tianji Gate."
Xuan Se said with regret.
"What's the matter, how can such a big guy be a janitor for us?"
Qin Xiaolong asked curiously.
"My master told me about this when he was alive, it is said that Uncle Zhao was also a ruthless character when he was young, I heard that he offended many people, and then he was chased and cornered, and it was your master who saved him."
"Later, Uncle Zhao didn't know how to live in our Taoist temple, and then became good friends with your master."
"He can have today's cultivation, in addition to his own talent, not to mention your master's guidance."
"For so many years, Uncle Zhao seems to be tired of fighting and killing on the rivers and lakes, so he usually hardly leaves the Taoist temple for a single step, and slowly he becomes a gatekeeper, and when my junior brother and I are not in the Taoist temple, he will take care of it here."
Xuan Se quickly told Qin Xiaolong what he knew.
"Grandpa Zhao is so powerful, why don't you invite him to join our Tianji Gate."
Qin Xiaolong asked again.
The influence that a peerless master of the Divine Hidden Realm can bring is beyond imagination, and if he is in charge of the Heavenly Machine Gate, I am afraid that even a super force like the Eight Great Families will not dare to easily become an enemy of them.
"I also tried to persuade Uncle Zhao before, wanting him to join our Tianjimen, but people didn't want to do it at all, and then I didn't mention it again."
Xuan Se replied quickly.
"Okay."
Hearing this, Qin Xiaolong couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
But he also knew that this kind of thing could not be forced.
Otherwise, if you anger Zhao An again, it will only backfire.
While the two were talking, they had already come to the Houshan cemetery, where the tombs were all over the mountain, and all the burials were the sages of Tianjimen.
However, Xuan Se came back this time to pay tribute to his master, so he didn't stay in front of other graves, and went straight to his master's grave.
This tomb is not as grand as Qin Xiaolong imagined, but very ordinary, with several big characters engraved on the tombstone, such as "Tomb of the Dustless Child".
On the way here, Xuan Se told Qin Xiaolong that Wuchenzi was his master's way.
In front of the tombstone, there was also a bottle of liquor, a box of pastries, and a roast chicken, which were obviously sacrifices brought by Zhao An when he came before.
"Master, I brought your disciples and grandchildren to see you."
After saying this, Xuan Se bowed to the tombstone first, and then waved at Qin Xiaolong and said, "Xiaolong, put all the sacrifices we brought." ”
"Okay."
Qin Xiaolong responded, and quickly placed the fruits, liquor, and other sacrifices they had bought in advance in front of the tombstone.
"Master, he is the apprentice I accepted for my junior brother, his name is Qin Xiaolong. Xiaolong's talent is much higher than that of my junior brother, if you have a spirit in the sky, please bless Xiaolong to grow up safely. In the future, our Tianjimen will return to its former glory! ”
"Xiaolong, come and kowtow to your master three times, and you will officially enter our Tianji Gate."
Xuan Se then commanded.
This is a due gift, Qin Xiaolong naturally will not refuse, and immediately knelt in front of the dustless tomb and kowtowed three times in a row.
After Qin Xiaolong finished kowtowing, Xuan Se picked up the wine glass again, poured a glass of wine, and sprinkled it in front of Wuchenzi's tomb.
"Master, this is your favorite drink of Longnanchun, apprentice, I can bring you two bottles this year, let's have a few drinks today."
Speaking of this, Xuan Se poured himself another glass.
"Alas, you said you would leave back then, but it hurt me and my junior brother. No, I should say that I am alone. ”
"Originally, I said that I would let my junior brother be the head, but my junior brother directly gave me this burden, and he didn't know where he died, and I couldn't even see others all year round."
"Forget about the first two years, but this year is your fifteenth anniversary, and he won't come back, I really don't understand the etiquette at all."
"When we meet next time, I must teach him a good lesson for you."
The Xuanse Taoist complained about the mystery while drinking wine.
At this moment, a neutral voice suddenly sounded.
"Senior brother, it's immoral to speak ill of people behind your back."
Hearing this, Qin Xiaolong immediately turned his head to look at the source of the sound.
Just as he expected.
The person who spoke was a mysterious Taoist who hadn't shown up for a long time!
