Build the Traveler Alliance from Scratch.

Chapter 931 Eight Years Later

"What are you looking at? You've never seen anyone kill someone?"

Master Zishan glared at the waiter behind the counter, then flicked his sleeves and put away the bloody body of Xing Ji Laodao. Then he turned around and Shi Shiran walked towards the fog behind him.

The guy behind the counter looked blank.

After a while, he came back to his senses, looked at Master Zishan's back and muttered: "Why do I always feel familiar..."

Master Zishan didn't give the guy a chance to observe carefully. He strode into the mist, made a hand seal with his right hand, and disappeared into the mist.

At the same time, in the mist, Zhan Zhao held the giant sword and moved forward cautiously.

Suddenly, a figure appeared from the right side. Zhan Zhao was startled and swung his sword to kill it without hesitation.

"clang--"

The sound of gold and iron clashing echoed in the mist.

Master Zishan glanced at him and said: "There is a thousand-year-old purple bat spirit in the devil's way, and it likes the art of collecting tonics. Xingji Laodao and Tongzhen Guan secretly transported women, and it is very likely that they were under the instructions of the thousand-year-old purple bat spirit."

Master Zishan dispersed the golden light, lowered his arms, looked at the surrounding fog and said: "This street is the only way to go more than half a step. If you don't master a specific method, you can't get out of the fog."

Master Zishan's palms were filled with golden light. He blocked the sharp sword swung by Zhan Zhao and said with black lines on his head: "It's me."

Zhan Zhao was overjoyed again and said hurriedly: "Is Mr. Bao awake?"

Zhan Zhao was stunned and said in surprise: "Xing Ji Lao Dao has been stopped by you?"

Zhan Zhao was startled and quickly took back his sword and said apologetically: "It turns out to be the Taoist priest..."

Zhan Zhao had a look of surprise on his face, and then asked in a low voice: "What is more than half a step?"

Zhan Zhao asked doubtfully: "The devil's way?"

……

He immediately said angrily: "This is really unreasonable!"

……

After hearing the words of Master Zishan, Zhan Zhao finally understood everything.

After speaking, he asked again: "Taoist Priest, do you know how to enter more than half a step?"

Master Zishan smiled and said: "Of course, otherwise, how could the poor Taoist accept the old Taoist Xing Ji before the donor?"

A quarter of an hour later, Bao Zheng was sitting on the bed in the study room, rubbing his temples and frowning: "So, Bao's illness is because Master Pang asked Tongzhen to practice the Tao of Demon Contemplation with the intention of killing me with a curse?"

While Master Zishan was holding the secrets and leading the way for Zhan Zhao, he explained casually: "More than half a step away, there is an inn. It connects the three realms. It is a place like a gods and demons version of an inn or a transfer station."

Zhan Zhao said happily: "Then what are you waiting for? Come back quickly!"

"Xing Ji, the old Taoist, fled here. He probably wanted to escape to the devil's path through the Banbuduo Inn..."

"I see."

Master Zishan nodded and said, "Well, when I get back to Bao Mansion, I will tell Mr. Bao exactly what happened..."

Master Zishan smiled and said: "Counting the time, when we go back, we should have woken up for a moment..."

"That's right!"

Bao Xing, who was waiting by the bed, nodded repeatedly, then looked at Bai Yutang and Master Zishan with a grateful face and said, "If Brother Bai hadn't been so righteous and led Mr. Zhan to invite Master Zishan, I'm afraid you would have been in trouble this time! "

"..."

Bao Zheng calmed down, raised his head, glanced at Bao Xing, Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang, Gongsun Ce, Xu Xian, Zishan Zhenren and others in the study, and then solemnly raised his hands and thanked them.

"Bao Zheng thanks Yishi Bai for his righteous action!"

"Thank you, Taoist Priest Zishan, for rescuing me!"

Bai Yutang quickly turned aside, not daring to accept the courtesy.

Although Master Zishan accepted it gladly, he still said modestly on the surface: "The prime minister has done good deeds for the country and the people, and a poor man can only represent the people of the world and repay good deeds... not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning!" "

Bao Zheng smiled: "The Taoist priest really has a righteous mind. I wonder where Changxian Township is?"

"When Bao recovers from his illness, I can't go to the temple to pay homage..."

Master Zishan hesitated and said: "This..."

Seeing this situation, Bai Yutang quickly explained: "The Prime Minister doesn't know something. Taoist Priest Zishan is a real reclusive master who does not live in the world. There are no pilgrims in Ziyang Temple and it is not open to the outside world."

"If the prime minister hadn't been in trouble this time, I'm afraid the Taoist priest wouldn't have made an exception..."

"That's it." Bao Zheng suddenly realized, and then looked at Master Zishan with admiration.

Feeling the admiring looks of everyone in the study, Master Zishan didn't think anything of it, but Xu Xian and Yourong Yan couldn't help but raise their chests and raise their heads with a smile on their face.

After a conversation, Bao Zheng's thoughts gradually became clearer and his brain began to work normally.

He recounted what he heard from everyone from beginning to end, then turned to look at Gongsun Ce and said: "I already know the matter. Tomorrow, I will prepare a book about the participation. I will pay my respects to the Holy Ann and thank you for your leave." Thinking about it, Master Pang is good at using nightmare magic to secretly murder ministers."

"The fold has been written and can be placed in front of the table. I will present it to the court with five drums the day after tomorrow."

After hearing Gong Bao's instructions, Gongsun Ce quickly nodded in agreement. Bao Gong then turned to look at Zhan Zhaohe Dynasty Ma Han and others, and said: "You will go to Tongzhen Temple immediately to arrest the surviving Taoist priest Tan Ming, and summon the sister of Yuxiang, a commoner, and the relevant people to come together." Arrive."

When Bao Xing heard the word "the day after tomorrow" and heard Bao Gong's order to capture Taoist priest Tan Ming, he immediately understood and asked worriedly: "Sir, you have just recovered from your illness, and are you going to go to court again?"

Bao Gong shook his head and said: "Human life is at stake, there must be no delay."

Bao Xing said hurriedly: "But..."

Bao Gong did not answer, but looked at him with a majestic look, and immediately told him to shut his mouth and retreat slumped.

Master Zishan watched the whole process, smiled slightly, pushed Xu Xian out behind him and said: "My apprentice's name is Xu Mingxian. Although he is young, he still has some skills. If Mr. Bao is short of manpower, it is better to keep him on duty until this matter is over. Then put him back in the mountains."

……ah?

Xu Xian was stunned and looked at the master with a confused face.

Bao Zheng's eyes wandered between the master and the apprentice. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, little friend Xu!"

Master Zishan smiled, immediately turned around and walked away.

Bao Zheng sat on the bed, looking through the window at the back of Master Zishan leaving in the clouds, and couldn't help but sigh: "You are indeed a master!"

……

……

Fifteen days later, Ziyang Temple.

Xu Xian, who had just returned, made tea for his master and said excitedly: "Mr. Bao is worthy of being Gong Bao. No matter how troublesome things are, he can handle them as calmly as peeling off cocoons."

"In this case of Taishi Pang, Taoist Tongzhen Guan Tanyue was sentenced to border confinement. Yuxiang was sent to the Jiaofang Department for secretly assisting demons in transporting women, along with Jin Widow and other poisonous women who were also involved in the matter."

"As for Taoist Tan Ming, he had nothing to do with it. He was just too timid to expose his master and brother, so he was punished by stealing all the dirty silver in the Tongzhen Temple, and then succeeded him as the leader of the temple..."

"The most hateful thing is that Grand Master Pang. He clearly committed such evil deeds and the evidence is conclusive, but because he is a relative of the emperor, he was only removed from his official position and fined for three years by His Majesty. It is really unreasonable!"

When he said the last sentence, Xu Xian showed an angry look on his face.

Master Zishan said calmly: "The emperor's country is like this, there is nothing strange about it."

As he said that, he glanced at Xu Xiandao: "If you are dissatisfied, I can teach you the dragon-slaying technique when I have time to serve as a teacher. I'm afraid that you are too weak-tempered to do such a big thing that changes the world."

"..."

Xu Xian blinked, unable to understand what the master was talking about.

Master Zishan took a sip of tea, stood up and said: "Calculating the time, it's almost time. I won't practice boxing today. Come to my cave, my master will formally teach you the magical skills I created in three months of retreat!"

Xu Xian's face was full of surprise, he quickly put down the teapot and followed.

……

……

The sun rises and sets, and in the blink of an eye, eight years pass.

During these eight years, Master Zishan has been living near Ziyang Temple. The only time he went down the mountain was when Bao Gong passed away four years ago. Zhan Zhao, Bao Xing and others wrapped their heads in white cloth and went up the mountain to invite Master Zishan to go to Kaifeng to preside over the ritual.

In addition, Master Zishan has not stepped outside the Taoist temple. He is either teaching disciples or practicing cultivation every day. He occasionally activates system tasks, then takes the trouble to complete them and receive system rewards.

Eight years have passed like this, and with the help of system tasks, Master Zishan's cultivation has skyrocketed to 1,500 years, far exceeding his previous mana cultivation.

Not only that, all the magical powers and techniques he mastered were replaced by those produced by the system.

Its true combat power is already several levels higher than the peak of its previous life.

With such strength, as long as he doesn't fall into a situation of being besieged, it will definitely not be a problem to seek revenge from a few old acquaintances from his previous life.

But Master Zishan still didn't take action.

This is not because he has given up his hatred, but because three years ago, the world has changed again.

Those immortal gods and Buddhas who had mysteriously disappeared before suddenly reappeared.

The demons and monsters that took advantage of the disappearance of the immortal gods and Buddha to seize heaven and earth were also surrendered by the returning immortal gods. They either died or were adopted as mounts of the immortal gods.

Master Zishan was also a great demon in his previous life, and the old demons who were qualified to participate in besieging him were basically among this group of demons.

This resulted in Master Zishan depressingly discovering that he had beaten the other party to death before he could take revenge personally.

After learning this information, Master Zishan was even more reluctant to go down the mountain.

On the other hand, his eldest disciple Xu Xian, after reaching the peak of Qi Sea two years ago, obtained the right to go down the mountain freely from him.

In the past two years, Xu Xian has been active around Lin'an Prefecture, and even participated in several major events in the martial arts world with Bai Yuting. Among the martial arts world gossipers, he has earned a resounding nickname "The Unrivaled Divine Fist, Lin'an Xu Hanwen".

At this point, I have to mention that after Xu Xian entered the Qi Sea Realm, the excessive medicinal power in his body was finally digested, causing his originally overly strong body to gradually shrink.

Now in appearance, he is extremely close to the handsome young man in the original work.

If there is any difference, it is probably that Xu Xian in this world is taller, and his temperament is more heroic, lacking the soft and bookish air...
