"What, are you saying that Zhang Daoxian was overtaken by the Bodhisattva of Western Heaven Buddhism, is it true?", Zhong Kui couldn't believe his ears, and hurriedly asked.

"That's right, after you passed out, the Lingji Bodhisattva of Western Heaven Buddhism suddenly appeared in front of me, fought a fierce battle with that Zhang Daoxian, and finally subdued Zhang Daoxian with his profound Buddhism, and resealed the well of gods and demons, and then drifted away", Zhou Yan said without changing his face.

"Hahaha, it's good to die, it's good to die, thank you Lingji Bodhisattva, thank you Lingji Bodhisattva for removing this great harm for the people of Hudu for me", Zhong Kui cried with joy and shouted loudly, and then knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the west three times in a row.

"Brother Zhong, how did that Zhang Daoxian hurt you, you hate him so much, could it be that he killed you, that's why you hate him so much", Zhou Yan asked strangely.

"It seems that Brother Zhou, you already know that I am not a human being, but a haunting ghost. But also, I can see you here, Brother Zhou, are you also one of those immortals, but why did Brother Zhou come to my capital", Zhong Kui straightened up, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and looked at Zhou Yan thoughtfully and asked.

"Brother Zhong, no matter who I am Zhou Yan, I am just a friend of you and Sister Ling'er, you don't have to think about it, I won't harm you", Zhou Yan smiled slightly, avoided Zhong Kui's question, and said.

"Hahaha, yes, what does your identity do to me, I understand now, I, Zhong Kui, am just a resentful soul who is not dissipated, and the ghost is not gone, walking in the yang world, what face do I have to meet the people of Hudu again", Zhong Kui laughed and mocked himself.

"Brother Zhong, there is no need for you to deny your existence like this, although you are a resentful spirit, you have not done anything to hurt the heavens and reason, on the contrary, you have been guarding the safety of the people of Hudu. Even if Zhang Daoxian did something bad before, it has nothing to do with you, you should cheer up again, do what you want to do, don't be bound by the so-called identity, think about Ling'er sisters, think about the people of Hudu, they all need your help", Zhou Yan comforted Zhong Kui.

"But, but, I was able to maintain my body with a resentful soul before, all because Zhang Daoxian had been feeding me soul rejuvenation soup, but now that Zhang Daoxian is dead, where can I find soul rejuvenation soup. Without the Soul Rejuvenation Soup, I will not be able to maintain the state of my human body at that time, and I will return to the body of a resentful soul, how can I face Ling'er and the people of Hudu", Zhong Kui looked at his hands and said bitterly.

"This ...... Brother Zhong, I think I can help you with this", Zhou Yan pointed his finger towards Zhong Kui's eyebrows, and a golden light disappeared into Zhong Kui's consciousness.

"Brother Zhou, what is this?", Zhong Kui looked at the strange black words that appeared in his consciousness, and hurriedly asked.

"Brother Zhong, this is a ghost cultivation decision that I once inadvertently obtained, with your qualifications, if you practice this method, I believe that you will soon reshape your body, and then the body of the resentful soul will be mastered by you, and you can change between the ghost body and the human body at any time, and you don't have to be afraid that you will suddenly recover your resentful soul body", Zhou Yan said, as for the ghost cultivation decision that Zhou Yan taught to Zhong Kui, it was the "Nine Springs Underworld" obtained by destroying the thousand-year-old tree demon when he was in Lanruo Temple. Netherworld Nine Springs, what kind of thousand-year-old tree demon must have something to do with the Nine Netherworld in the underworld, but unfortunately, I don't know very well, but, it doesn't matter, even if there is any big movement in the Nine Netherworld, it has nothing to do with me, and the sky is falling and there is a tall man on top.

"Thank you Brother Zhou, I am grateful here, as long as I am still alive in this world, I will definitely protect the safety of the people of Hudu", Zhong Kui said categorically patting his chest.

"Brother Zhong, that's right, let's go out quickly. The people of Hudu outside were sucked into the soul essence by Zhang Daoxian's dementor lamp, and they don't know how they are now, let's go out and take a look", Zhou Yan hurriedly said.

"Brother Zhou is right, let's go out. However, before I go out, I have one more thing, and I ask Brother Zhou to be sure to agree to me," Zhong Kui said

"What's the matter, please ask Brother Zhong to make it clear", Zhou Yan asked strangely.

"What happened here, as well as about Zhang Daoxian, I also ask Brother Zhou to keep it secret, I don't want Ling'er and them to know the truth of this matter, the truth only needs me to bear it alone, and please Brother Zhou must keep it secret", Zhong Kui said in a firm tone.

"It turns out that this is this matter, Brother Zhong, don't worry, I, Zhou Yan, am not a talkative person, I still know what to say and what not to say, Sister Ling'er is so innocent and cute, let's not destroy the image of the immortal in her mind, Brother Zhong, you say, what I said is right?", Zhou Yan said with a slight smile on his face.

"Hahaha, right. That's it, good brother, let's go", Zhong Kui laughed.

After that, Zhou Yan and Zhong Kui left the small world where the Well of Gods and Demons was sealed, and strode out of the Dao Immortal Temple. After experiencing Zhang Dao's immortal primordial possession, Zhong Kui's cultivation actually reached the realm of the entrance to the immortal stage true immortal realm without surviving the heavenly tribulation. As long as Zhong Kui comprehends the "Nine Springs Scripture", he can freely control the ghost qi in his body, reshape his body, and even go one step further and become a formal immortal-level ghost cultivator, that is, a real ghost immortal.

Zhou Yan and Zhong Kui, who walked out of the gate of the Dao Immortal Temple, looked at it and were shocked, and the ground was full of people from Hudu who had passed out in a coma.

Seeing such a situation, Zhong Kui hurriedly ran over and shouted one by one.

"Ling'er, Ling'er, what's wrong with you, wake up soon......"

"Du Ping, why are you like this, wake me up quickly......"

"Vice Admiral Wang, get up quickly, don't sleep for me anymore, what's wrong with you......"

............

"Brother Zhong, you don't have to shake them, they can't wake up for a while because of the loss of soul essence and the damage of vitality, no matter how much you shout at them, they won't be able to hear them", Zhou Yan shook his head, stepped forward and dragged Zhong Kui, who was a little crazy, and said quickly.

"Then, Brother Zhou, what should we do, it's all to blame for the damn Zhang Daoxian, who actually harmed the people of my city", Zhong Kui looked at Zhou Yan with some gods and asked.

"Brother Zhong, with me, you can rest assured! Most of the soul essence of these Hudu people has actually returned to their respective bodies, presumably when Lingji Bodhisattva entered the small world before, he broke the ghost lamp and released the soul essence of the people of Hudu imprisoned inside, the important reason why they haven't woken up now is that the part of the soul essence that has been sucked away has not yet fully matched their own souls. According to my observation, in about half an hour or so, they will be able to wake up, you don't have to think about it, when they wake up, I will write a prescription for replenishing qi, you send someone to grab the medicine according to the prescription, drink it three times, and their bodies will be fine", Zhou Yan said.

"Then thank you Brother Zhou, please hug Ling'er first, I'll take a few of them, take them back to the city lord's mansion first, and then say, it's always a problem to lie here", Zhong Kui heard Zhou Yan's explanation, put down a big stone in his heart, and then gave Zhong Ling to Zhou Yan, he himself picked up Du Ping, and there was a deputy general in armor, Wang Wang, walking towards the city lord's mansion.

"Brother Zhong, you are ...... It's really, hey!", Zhou Yan looked at Zhong Ling, who was still asleep like a sleeping beauty in his arms, sighed angrily, and followed Zhong Kui to the City Lord's Mansion.

............

A day later, after the people of Hudu were settled, Zhong Kui announced to the people of Hudu as the lord of Hudu that their lost yang spirit had been recovered by Zhang Daoxian, and from then on, the people of Hudu could spend every day happily, and Zhang Daoxian left Hudu and returned to Heaven because he completed his mission, and never came back.

Immediately, Zhong Kui ordered that it was to thank Zhang Daoxian for his contribution to the people of Hudu, so he listed the Daoxian Temple as a forbidden place in the Hudu, prohibiting anyone from approaching it, and keeping the Daoxian Temple pure and sacred.

The truth of that day was sealed in the mouths of Zhong Kui and Zhou Yan, not in detail by outsiders.

And Zhou Yan was excused by Zhong Kui to stay in the City Lord's Mansion, and the two talked from time to time about a lot about the way of cultivation, of course, most of the time, it was Zhou Yan who was talking and Zhong Kui was listening.

Of course, Zhou Yan sometimes talks about what Sun Wukong knew in his previous life, and sometimes he talks about what he saw and felt in this life. After all, in the previous life, Sun Wukong's origin was extraordinary, he was born and raised, he was born noble, and what he saw, saw and got acquainted with were all immortal-level powerhouses such as demon kings, immortals, and star monarchs in the Three Realms, and Zhou Yan in this life has experienced the secular road as a mortal, and has seen a lot of mundane things, but the two are different, in fact, when Zhou Yan was preaching and discussing the law for Zhong Kui, he was also washing and perfecting his own perfect Dao heart.

Because in the past, with the help of Zhang Daoxian, Zhong Kui also killed a lot of powerful ghosts and ghosts, and Zhong Ling also knew something about demons and monsters. The things of the gods and Buddhas, so Zhong Kui did not avoid Zhong Ling when he talked to Zhou Yan, and at this time, Zhong Ling also knew that Zhou Yan was a cultivator who was even more powerful than his brother, and sometimes, he also pestered Zhou Yan all day long to tell her about those gods, gods and ghosts, and when Zhou Yan was entangled by Zhong Ling, he told Zhong Ling some stories about gods, ghosts, demons, and absurdities that he had seen on the earth in his previous life, such as chatting about strange things, about gods, ghosts, demons, and absurdities.

Soon, in this relaxed environment, under the guidance of Zhou Yan, Zhong Kui, who was worthy of being born with the life of the ghost king, only took less than three days to master the ghost qi in his body, reshape his body, and no longer have to worry about anything.

Moreover, with the help of Zhou Yan, Zhong Kui also cultivated many ghost dao spells recorded in the "Nine Springs Underworld Canon", and even Zhong Ling and Zhou Yan also gave her an orthodox Taoist practice from the Bodhi Patriarch The method of breathing and refining qi, hoping to make her strong and healthy, not stained with dirt.
