My Immortal Brother-in-law

Chapter 109: Taoist Cihang
After leaving Zhongshan, Zhong Su felt too lazy to move for the first time in his life.

Well, Zhong Suli might be a bit of a otaku, but this attribute was not evident when he was always on the go.

But as soon as he set up his cave, he couldn't help but want to stay at home.

Although Fellow Daoist Zhulong talks a lot, he is really meticulous in his teachings with this spirit, which is far better than other people's ambiguous or mysterious teachings.

Although Zhong Su actually did not need to listen to the lecture, he had already reversed cause and effect and obtained the innate magical power of reversing yin and yang.

But who among those attending a seminar would dislike the speaker for presenting various knowledge and experiences in too much detail?

Only the dumbest of fools would refuse to share knowledge.

Apart from Zhulong, Zhong Sulu now has a cute tiger pet above him and a clam girl to serve him below, so he is really happy.

However, no matter how much he didn't want to go out, Zhong Su had to rush to the meeting.

So Zhong Su rode on Hu Jiao and slowly walked from Zhongshan to the southwest, all the way to the South China Sea.

It was not until he passed through five or six chaotic countries to the south that Zhong Su finally left civilization and stepped into the true wilderness.

If we say that the Shang Dynasty in today's era still has 70% civilization, then in the wilderness you can't find even a single point of civilization.

Zhong Su, who had not fought any magic in the past few years, now had a really good killing spree in this one.

First, the elephant demon controlled a tribe of southern barbarians to block people on the road, climb mountains and dive into caves, and killed many people on the way.

So Zhong Su took the handle of the Ruyi whisk, which was also a stick, and smashed the elephant's brain.

Then Zhu Yan brazenly blocked the way and insisted that he was a disciple of Jiejiao and a disciple of a saint, and demanded that Zhong Su hand over his magic weapons and Taoist techniques. So Zhong Su picked him up in his sleeve and planned to take him to Jin'ao Island to be recognized by Tongtian Jiaozhu.

Then dozens of tiger monsters blocked Hu Jiao and wouldn't let her leave, just because Hu Jiao was particularly beautiful among tigers.

It's a pity that Hu Jiao didn't like to be passive, so she took the initiative to ask Zhong Su to kill dozens of tigers before she opened up the road to the southwest.

Similar things happened over and over again, and the monsters he encountered almost made Zhong Su unable to even muster the mood to speak.

The monsters in the wilderness really only do two things: one is to choose the right prey, and the other is to run away desperately when they find out that they have chosen the wrong prey.

They fought and killed along the way, and captured hundreds of demons who claimed to be disciples of the Jiejiao sect.

Zhong Su, carrying a sleeve full of goblins, finally reached the South China Sea.

Seeing the South China Sea, Hu Jiao followed Zhong Su's footsteps and stopped on the beach. She took a deep breath of the sea breeze with a happy face, then looked up and said to Zhong Su.

"Master, I haven't seen the sea for a long time. I was so tired of eating fish before, but now I suddenly feel a little greedy. You see..."

"What am I looking at?"

Zhong Su patted Hu's head in annoyance.

"If you want to go play in the water, just go ahead. I don't really need you to carry me across the sea.

But remember to keep up with me, there are less than two months left before the agreed date, and we will probably be the latest one when we arrive."

"Okay, sir!"

With permission, Hu Jiao dived into the sea and in a blink of an eye rushed to the depths of the South China Sea, where she played with whale sharks and the like, and took a bite of the passing fish left and right to taste them.

While Hu Jiao was walking on the bottom of the sea, Zhong Su was walking on the water surface. He shortened the ground with every step he took and walked very fast. Soon, he crossed two islands.

However, when they reached the third island, Zhong Su couldn't help but stop, because there were traces of civilization on this island.

These traces were not those of barbarians who ate raw meat and drank blood, but real fishing nets and fishing boats. There were actually civilized tribes on this island, and even a primary school where Taoist scriptures were recited.

So Zhong Su stayed for a while, went up to the island from the coast, shrunk Hu Jiao into the size of a cat, and turned his clothes into ordinary cloth.

Zhong Su came naturally to the vicinity of the ships and greeted a man who was repairing the ship.

"You are repairing the boat here. Let me see what is wrong with it."

"what?"

The man repairing the boat was frightened by Zhong Su. He took two steps back in a hurry, then looked at Zhong Su's clothes and finally stopped.

Then, without waiting for Zhong Su to speak, the man knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Zhong Su.

This action left Zhong Su puzzled for a moment, but the man's subsequent narration made Zhong Su gradually understand.

It turns out that this village was not formed naturally, but a Taoist priest rescued many barbarians from the many shipwrecks in the South China Sea. He then sent those barbarians to this island and came here every now and then to unify and educate them.

The ship repairing man in front of Zhong Su was once a barbarian. He has been on this island for sixteen years. Now he has married and had children on the island and has gradually become accustomed to civilized life.

But no matter what, there are only about 300 people on this island, and almost everyone on the island knows each other. A stranger like Zhong Suli will be noticed as different right from the start.

especially……

Although Zhong Su's clothes were modified to look like those worn by the islanders, and they were also exposed, her skin was really... too white! On this island, there was only one person with skin like this, and that was the immortal who sent them in.

So, when this person saw a white person like Zhong Suli, he couldn't wait to kneel down and worship him.

After listening to the man's explanation, Zhong Su nodded in understanding. It was normal for a black person to kneel when seeing a white person.

So he helped the man repair the boat, and then went to the village with the man to beg for food and observe what they had learned.

But when Zhong Su just arrived on the island, a man in another place sensed something and hurried towards the island.

When Zhong Su went to his fellow villager's house to drink water and share shrimps and crabs with him, the light transformed by this man fell directly in front of Zhong Su.

His arrival made the villagers kneel down and call him an immortal.

As for Zhong Su, he calmly swallowed the crab legs and bowed to the visitor.

"I am Zhongshan Jun, I accidentally passed by your territory this time. I am sorry for any offense. Please forgive me."

"Mr. Zhongshan?"

Hearing Zhong Su's words, the young man in a green silk and soap flower velvet brocade robe, holding a clear glass bottle in his hand, was slightly stunned.

Then, he immediately remembered something and quickly looked at the neck of Hu Jiao in Zhong Su's arms.

When he saw the now complete Dragon-Tiger Ruyi, he finally nodded in understanding, then bowed to Zhong Suli.

"So you are the Dragon and Tiger Ruyi who captured the Golden Spirit Mother with a flip of his hand, and the Master Zhongshan who took all my fellow disciples into his sleeves with a single wave of his hand!"

After he finished speaking, the young Taoist straightened up, smiled at Zhong Su with his slightly peachy eyes, and continued.

“Today, I am able to meet the True Lord, which shows that we have a great affinity.

I am Cihang, the poor Taoist priest. I am glad to meet you this time. I wonder how you came to the South China Sea and are eating crabs on the island where I have been helping you for a few days?"

After he finished speaking, Cihang couldn't help but laugh.

After a light chuckle, he raised his finger and pointed to the ceiling, motioning Zhong Su to go up and talk.

Seeing this, Zhong Su threw Hu Jiao to the ground and stepped onto the clouds with Ci Hang.

Looking at the South China Sea below from high in the sky, Cihang explained to Zhong Su.

“I’m afraid what happened on the island will make you laugh.

It's not that I want to pass on my Taoism to the barbarians and slaves, or do anything against the will of heaven, but when I occasionally see creatures struggling in the waves, I can't help but want to change their fate.

Don’t tell my master about this. Although he probably knows everything, he won’t say anything unless you expose it.”

"what's up?"

After hearing what Cihang said, Zhong Su counted on his fingers belatedly.

After a moment, Zhong Su raised his head and couldn't help but mutter something to Ci Hang.

"If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that the people who are living and multiplying on your island are actually all dead people who should have died.

They should have followed the will of heaven, died in the waves of the past, reincarnated as shrimps and crabs for 600 lifetimes to bear witness to their true nature, and then re-entered the six realms of reincarnation to be reborn as humans in the next life.

But you intercepted them directly, which is quite amazing.

Fellow Daoist Yuanshi will definitely not like this approach."

"That's exactly it!"

As soon as Zhong Su finished speaking, Ci Hang nodded quickly.

“My master values ​​destiny the most and is very particular about rules, but I think it’s a bit too arbitrary to judge everything based solely on destiny.

Look at those barbarians on the island. Although they originally ate raw meat and drank blood, they accumulated a lot of karma and ended up dying a sudden death.

But I only taught them a little.

Now, not only do they treat me with special respect, but they are also very friendly and respectful to each other on a daily basis. In this small village, people don't pick up things on the streets.

This scene is even warmer than what I have seen in Da Shang. If someone had taught them like me earlier, how could they have ended up being entangled in karma and filled with blood and qi in the first half of their lives? "

Having said this, Cihang also felt that his tone had changed a little, so he lowered his hand and stroked the pure glass bottle, then calmed down and looked at Zhong Sulu.

Facing Cihang's gentle yet extremely firm gaze, Zhong Su thought for a moment, then nodded heavily.

"Makes sense."
