The years when I opened a coffin shop in the world of Ninth Uncle

Chapter 286 Encountering a Mountain God
The cock crowed and the sky dawned.

The twilight of the morning sun penetrates the clouds, washes away the turbid air of the night, and covers up the killings of the night.

To deal with the ninjas this time, each faction went to Qicheng, each with casualties, and the price was not small.

There may still be scattered ninjas hiding in the city, but it is impossible to find them all. One after another, people from various sects are already ready to turn back.

City God Temple.

Thinking about what happened last night and details that he hadn't noticed, Xu Ping got up early.

The sky outside the window changed from a twilight morning light to a bright light, and he was still sitting at the table, thinking quietly.

"Brother Xu, it's time for breakfast!"

Gu Nianhua's voice came from outside the door, she opened the door and entered the room, and put the prepared breakfast in front of Xu Ping.

The aroma of white porridge penetrated Xu Ping's nose, interrupting his train of thought. Xu Ping raised his head and smiled, "You slept so late yesterday, why did you wake up so early?"

"I can't sleep, so I got up and made breakfast."

Gu Nianhua sat next to Xu Ping, there were two breakfasts on the table, and she also had one.

Picking up a meat bun and taking a bite, the aroma of the gravy burst out between the lips and tongue, leaving the fragrance on the lips and teeth, and took another sip of the white porridge, feeling warm and comfortable in the whole stomach.

"call……"

Xu Ping took a deep breath, stood up and said, "If I'm not wrong, the corpse of Yamata no Orochi last night should be the escaped Ishida ghost."

Gu Nianhua swallowed the bun in her mouth, frowned, and said, "I told Master what happened last night, and Master also said so."

Xu Ping regained his energy and asked, "What did Uncle Jiu say?"

"Master said that he did some research. The ball of light was swallowed by Yamata no Orochi, so its body should also contain divine power. The person who secretly stole the body must have done it for this."

As he said that, Gu Nianhua was a little worried: "If the tennin of the Ishida ghost got the corpse of Yamata no Orochi, then its strength will definitely be further improved, and it will be difficult to deal with at that time."

Xu Ping also echoed, "And if he hides in the city, he will definitely cause even bigger troubles when he receives reinforcements from the Ninja people from Dongying."

Gu Nianhua said in astonishment: "Brother Xu, do you think those ninjas will make a comeback?"

"definitely!"

Xu Ping said affirmatively: "From the behavior of these ninjas, we can see their wolfish ambitions, so I'm sure there will be ninjas who come here after traveling thousands of miles."

Upon hearing this, Gu Nianhua immediately stood up and said, "I'll call Master over."

After saying that, she got up and rushed out, and after a while, she came in with Uncle Jiu.

Uncle Jiu didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly after sitting down: "Xiao Xu, do you think these ninjas will attack us again?"

Xu Ping nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Jiu, according to my speculation, the possibility is very high."

"This……"

Uncle Jiu couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Originally, their Maoshan was also preparing. In the past few days, they left Qicheng and returned to Maoshan to surrender to the head teacher of Maoshan.

After all, in the process of Maoshan this time, the casualties were not small.

But now that he heard this, Uncle Jiu couldn't help but start to hesitate, whether to stay or not, to guard against possible attacks in the future.

"If it's true what you said, the other party failed so thoroughly this time, there will definitely be even more powerful ninjas coming here next time." Uncle Jiu looked serious and his voice was low.

"But now the cultivator organizations in the northeast region have basically been attacked, and most of them even the mountain gates are already in ruins." Gu Nianhua echoed.

Under such circumstances, there is no ability to organize defense.

If you want to resist the ninja that may come next, you must continue to stay here with other sects.

Uncle Jiu pondered for a long time before he said: "Xiao Xu, it's not that I don't believe your speculation. The casualties of various sects this time are too great to continue, but I will definitely inform all sects, including those The sect that has already left."

This is all he can do. After all, Uncle Nine can't represent Maoshan, and he needs Dinghu Daoist or Maoshan's head teacher to decide the next resistance mission.

Xu Ping nodded, expressing his understanding.

"Uncle Jiu doesn't need to be too anxious. I don't think they will make a comeback so soon, so we still have time." Xu Ping said with a smile.

Listening to the conversation between the two of them, Gu Nianhua suddenly said: "Can we ask the government for help? After all, this matter may no longer be a practitioner's business."

Xu Ping laughed and asked, "Which one?"

Gu Nianhua fell silent immediately. In this chaotic world, when encountering such a situation, it is true that folk practitioners can only solve it by themselves.

"Ugh!"

Faced with this situation, Uncle Jiu was also helpless and could only sigh.

In troubled times, the common people have always suffered. Uncle Jiu, who has a strong sense of justice, hates such a scene the most.

After a little adjustment, Uncle Jiu asked: "Since that's the case, then we can take advantage of this time to deal with that Ishida ghost first."

Xu Ping nodded: "I think so too."

Gu Nianhua said the key point, "But we don't know where he is now."

Uncle Jiu pondered: "If I were him, I would definitely not stay in Qicheng. I would go to a place where there is no one to heal my wounds. By the way, I would completely digest the divine power from the corpse of Yamata no Orochi before reappearing."

Now in the whole city, there are practitioners from various sects, and in the past few days, the whole city has been searching for Dongying ninjas. It is impossible for Ishida ghost to heal his wounds and digest his divine power in such a situation.

Xu Ping began to ponder.

If this is the case, then you need to pay attention to some deep mountains. Such a place is very likely to be his hiding place.

Changbai Mountain? !

The first thing Xu Ping thought of was this place. They must be very familiar with it when they raided Changbai Mountain before, and maybe they will go there.

Looking at the little nest beside the bed, the little fox, Ali, was sleeping soundly and hadn't woken up yet.

If it was Changbai Mountain, then it must be very familiar. Thinking of this, Xu Ping planned to take the little fox to Changbai Mountain to see if he could find Shitian Ghost.

After expressing this idea, Uncle Jiu affirmed, "Changbai Mountain, what you said is not impossible, but Changbai Mountain is a long way from here, I still suggest, now, search in the nearby deep mountains and talk about it again."

Xu Ping nodded, agreeing.

In the next few days, Xu Ping wandered around the nearby famous mountains with his nine uncles, his master and his disciples, looking for any traces of Ishida ghosts.

Such an aimless search, of course, is fruitless, and the whole process is not much different from tourism.

Three days later, Xu Ping still decided to go to Changbai Mountain and send the little fox back at the same time.

……

The next day.

Xu Ping and the little fox left Qicheng and rushed to Changbai Mountain.

Qicheng is not close to Changbai Mountain, but because of this, staying away from Qicheng makes it more likely to avoid searches.

Ninth Uncle and the others were also going there, but Maoshan suddenly sent a letter claiming that the teacher was in trouble, and everyone in Maoshan hurried back, so only Ping was allowed.

Xu Ping flew all the way, the speed is not slow, stop and go, it took two days to reach the foot of Changbai Mountain.

Changbai Mountain has long mountains, towering peaks, snow-capped mountains and beautiful scenery.

Even after being mopped up by Japanese ninjas, you can still see many rare and exotic beasts, tigers, leopards and wolves among the vegetation in the forest.

And when he arrived at his home, the little fox was also very lively. After entering the Changbai Mountains, it got into the jungle for a while, and chased it from behind again, very happy.

After a while, it slid into Xu Ping's sleeve with an unknown fruit in its mouth, and the white snow stained on its hair was very cold.

"This fruit is for you to eat. It's very sweet." The little fox grinned silly, looking heartless.

Since that night, he has never seen a sad look on its face, which makes Xu Ping very envious.

Holding the fruit in his hand, Xu Ping shook his head and said, "I'm not here to play."

The little fox, Ali, was also a bit more serious, and said: "Don't worry about this, don't you just want to find someone, I can help."

Xu Ping was still thinking about how to find the Ishida ghost, but when the little fox said so, his eyes lit up and he asked, "What can you do?"

"Ha ha!"

The little fox smiled triumphantly, and said: "There are many foxes in the mountains, and I can inquire about them. As long as there are strangers or abnormal situations nearby, I will know."

Xu Ping was overjoyed, and said: "That's good, you helped me find someone, so I don't need you to repay the favor."

"what?!"

Surprised, the little fox jumped off Xu Ping's body, transformed into a charming girl, looked up and down, and asked in amazement, "Do you despise me?"

"Uh...not really."

The little fox was surprised: "Then why don't you want me to repay you?"

Xu Ping asked, "Then you must repay the favor?"

Facing his straightforward culture, the little fox Ari became shy instead, lowered his head and stammered: "Well...that's not true, but since I said to repay my kindness, I must mean what I say, and you also It’s not that annoying, I actually…”

Having said that, she raised her head, but found that there was no one in front of her.

"what?"

"What about people?"

The little fox turned around in surprise, and found that Xu Ping was looking at somewhere, dazed.

She ran over quickly, and before she could speak, Xu Ping pointed to a building not far away and said, "What's that place?"

The little fox's expression changed instantly, and he said, "You can't point to it, you can't point to it, it's the temple of the mountain god grandpa."

mountain god?

Xu Ping turned his head to look at the girl beside him, "I figured out a way, how to find the Ishida ghost in Changbai Mountain."

Although it is impossible to determine whether Ishida Ghost is in Changbai Mountain, if the mountain god wants to find someone on the mountain, it must be easy.

Of course, the prerequisite is that there is indeed a mountain god on the mountain.

Xu Ping walked quickly to the mountain temple, looked up, and found that there was indeed a faint fragrance of incense circulating.

The little fox, Ari, also followed behind him. After transforming into a human form, her face was flushed, and her skin was even more delicate.

"Young Master, do you want Grandpa Mountain God to help you find someone?"

"Yes."

The little fox waved his hand and said with a smile: "How is that possible? How could Grandpa the Mountain God help you? Whether it's people who come to worship or us monsters, he never pays attention to you."

Xu Ping smiled faintly: "That's you."

As he said that, he looked at the mountain temple in front of him, and said lightly: "If he refuses to help, I will set his temple on fire. What do you want him to do, a god who doesn't do anything?"

Since there is incense and charm, it is enough to prove that there is a mountain god in the temple, and it is not the kind of temple that people use to cheat people out of money.

Without squinting, Xu Ping walked in directly, passed through the front yard where the two bronze tripods were placed, and entered the mountain temple.

The little fox, Ari, hurriedly followed in.

In the mountain temple, there is a statue of a clay statue high above. The appearance of the statue is no different from that of an ordinary old man, with a bun facing the sky, long beard fluttering, and smiling eyes. It looks like a kind old man.

Although the statue is a clay sculpture, its body surface has a faint charm, and the power of incense is lingering around it, which is extremely pure.

The little fox couldn't see these charms and incense, but he suddenly noticed that the eyes of the statue seemed to light up.

When it looked carefully again, it found that there was no change, and thought it was an illusion.

What it didn't know was that there was already a figure in the empty mountain temple.

A transparent figure stepped down from the statue and came to Xu Ping. The old man was dressed in a luxurious black robe and had an extraordinary demeanor. He was smiling and looking at Xu Ping in front of him.

"I don't know which god friend came to visit, but I didn't greet him, please forgive me." The mountain god asked politely, but he was very strange in his heart.

The person in front of him is full of charm, but it is so complicated that he can't distinguish it at all.

He hadn't seen his god friend for hundreds of years, and the mountain god was very excited, so he met him for the first time.

The mountain god's voice was gentle, but it startled the little fox. She couldn't help but took a step back, looked up at the statue in front of her, and said in amazement: "Grandpa Mountain God has really appeared!"

The mountain god, who seldom, or even never showed up, met and spoke with Xu Ping the moment Xu Ping came in, which made the little fox Ari feel even more mysterious and terrifying the people around him.

Xu Ping, on the other hand, was very indifferent, as if meeting old friends, cupped his hands and said: "Xu Ping, I am not a god's mansion. I just came here this time to ask the mountain god for a matter, and I hope to promise."

"Oh……"

Hearing Xu Ping say that he is not a god, the mountain god frowned, unable to see the young man in front of him clearly, and asked, "I don't know what you want to ask for?"

"Actually, this matter is quite simple. I just want the mountain god to help me find someone in Changbai Mountain..." Xu Ping said politely with a smile on his face.

"Find someone?"

The mountain god looked Xu Ping up and down again, and was even more surprised when he found that the charm on his body was only much more than that of the mountain god who had been around for hundreds of years.

"The matter of finding someone is quite simple, but there is one thing I don't understand, Mr. Xu, since you are not a divine mansion, why do you have so much charm on your body?" The mountain god continued to ask.

The totem pole has existed for an unknown period of time, and the fusion of divine power contained in it has created Xu Ping's wonder.

It's just that this matter can't be explained clearly in a few words, Xu Ping smiled and said: "There are some adventures, but it's not worth mentioning."
