Chapter 184 Disobedience

Hanshan Sanren had been paying attention to Chen Shi's every move. When he saw Chen Shi kicking down the mountain gate, he couldn't help but gasp.

"This little fellow is so ruthless and cruel, even worse than Wuhu Sanren back then! He wiped out the entire family with one move, even demolished the mountain gate, and smashed the mountain guardian beast!"

The purpose of smashing the stone statue of the mythical beast is to cut off the incense.

Even Chen Yin rarely does things so drastically.

"That's too ruthless." Qianke Sanren also saw this scene and said.

Eighty-two people from the Taiping Gate, plus two divine beasts, were all killed by Chen Shi. Could a teenager have done this?
"Based on what Taiping Gate did, they really deserve to die."

Hanshan Sanren said, "What shocked me was that he could use my magic so skillfully. I suspected that Wuhu Sanren had secretly learned my magic and passed it on to him."

Qianke Sanren laughed and said, "How arrogant is Wuhu Sanren? Will he steal your magic? When he sees your magic, he will just say that your magic is too bad. I will help you modify it, and then it will be changed beyond recognition."

Hanshan San was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, but suddenly he burst out laughing. This was indeed Chen Yindu's style.

"But when Chen Shi performed your spell, it really seemed like you were teaching him step by step."

Qianke Sanren looked at him in confusion and asked, "You really didn't teach me the third spell?"

Hanshan shook his head: "I definitely didn't teach you that!"

Qianke looked at him dimly, and said, "Then his talent did not become mediocre just because his innate Dao fetus was taken away by someone. On the contrary, his talent is too high. The innate Dao fetus bestowed by the True God may not be that important to him."

Han Shan lost his voice and said, "You are going too far. What is a congenital Dao fetus? There is only one of its kind in the history! If you possess this kind of Dao fetus, you are destined to break through the limit of Mahayana, transcend the calamity and ascend to become an immortal! Although Chen Shi has some talent, he does not have a divine fetus. At best, he can cultivate to the same level as us."

Qianke also felt that his praise was a bit excessive, so he changed the subject and said, "Chen Shi's method is too sophisticated, it doesn't seem like this is his first time doing this! His moves are deadly, he cuts down mountains and destroys families, even those who have cultivated to the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm can easily die in his hands. How can a ten-year-old child do this? You say..."

She paused and said, "What did Chen Shi experience in the underworld?"

Hanshan was slightly stunned and didn't understand what she meant.

The guest said, "The scholar has been dead for eight years. He was a man who was highly valued by the True God. The True God gave him a unique innate Dao fetus. Would such a genius sink into obscurity and become unknown in the underworld? What did he experience in the eight years in the underworld? Was he bullied by the little ghosts?"

Han Shan was awed, and said, "In order to save him, Wu Hu San Ren sought the help of many other San Ren, in order to enter the underworld and snatch back his soul. Wu Hu San Ren's strength is something that even we are afraid of. He led many masters to snatch back Chen Shi for eight years. If he wanted to summon back an ordinary ghost from the underworld, would he have to go through so much trouble?"

The two looked at each other with serious expressions.

Summoning spirits is actually not difficult.

Any witch doctor in the countryside can summon souls. As long as they cultivate to the Divine Embryo Realm or the Golden Elixir Realm, they can summon ghosts from the underworld.

Ten years ago, Chen Shi's skull was pried open and his divine fetus was taken away. After his death, he entered the underworld. Why couldn't Chen Yin summon his soul?

At that time, Chen Yindu was one of the most powerful beings in the world, and his strength was unfathomable. Why did he even need to rely on the power of other people, enter the underworld several times, and fight for eight years before he could get Chen Shi's soul back?
"There must be something wrong here!"

Hanshan said, "Grandma Sha once studied under me. She was the one who helped Chen Yindu summon his soul. We can ask her and find out the whole story."

The migrant nodded.

Han Shan Sanren's spiritual awareness was vast and boundless. When his mind swept across Wuling, he found where Grandma Sha was, so he asked Yu Tiancheng to go and invite her over.

Not long after, Granny Sha arrived at the Void Realm and asked, "What does Master Hanshan want to talk to me about?"

Hanshan Sanren told Qianke about his doubts and said, "We are confused and want to ask you, why was it so difficult for Chen Yindu to rescue Chen Shi in the underworld? What happened to Chen Shi in the underworld?"

Granny Sha's expression suddenly changed, and she said unhappily, "Is this something you can ask about?"

Han Shan was so angry that his face turned blue. He slammed the table and shouted, "How can you talk like that? Is this how you talk to your teacher?"

Granny Sha quickly put on a smile and asked, "Teacher Hanshan, are you planning to be Xiao Shi's godmother?"

Hanshan Sanren asked, "What do you mean by godmother?"

"We have to guard him day and night and watch him. We can't let him get into any danger. We also have to be careful about the demons in his sea of ​​consciousness escaping. When the demons come out, we have to find ways to get rid of them. And we have to be careful about him doing stupid things, such as destroying Xiniu Island."

Han Shan said angrily: "I don't have many years left to live. If I become his godmother, I won't have many days left to live!"

Granny Sha said unhappily: "You don't do this, and you don't do that. Why are you asking around? Isn't it better to go to the village entrance and chat with some old men and women? I'm leaving!" After that, she turned around and left.

She turned back and said, "Teacher, I used your God-Searching Bag to suppress a demon. You won't take it from me, will you? If you don't want to take it, just give it back to me."

Han Shan San Ren was so angry that his head was dizzy. He picked up the soul-searching bag and threw it at her, shouting, "I'll give you both! Sooner or later, I'll possess your body!"

Granny Sha took the God-searching bag and left happily.

Hanshan was so angry that his hands and feet were shaking. He said to Qianke: "This little girl is getting bolder and bolder! She even dares to disobey me!"

The migrant said, "I think the reason she concealed it was probably because she encountered something terrible in the underworld."

Han Shan's heart was slightly moved, and he said, "I heard that Madam Hua Li was also invited by Wu Hu San Ren back then. Maybe she knows something about this."

Not long after, Madam Hua Li was invited to the Void Realm to meet the two seniors.

The migrant was an old woman with kind eyes. She explained the situation and said, "We are also worried about Chen Shi and want to know more about him."

Madam Hua Li pondered for a moment and said with a smile, "My cultivation was weak at first, so Wu Hu San Ren never asked me to help. Later, when I made some progress, he invited me. I only participated in the last rescue, but I didn't contribute as much as Granny Sha and the others, and I don't know much either."

The two elders, Han Qian and others, looked at each other, knowing that she didn't want to say more about Chen Shi.

The migrant smiled and said, "Just say what you can say."

Madam Hua Li pondered for a moment and said, "At that time, we went to the underworld with Black Pot... Black Pot was the black dog beside Chen Shi. When Wuhu Sanren did something wrong, they would put the blame on it, so we called it Black Pot."

She continued, "We went through an extremely terrifying battle. An endless stream of ghosts and gods from the underworld came toward us. Suddenly, Wuhu Sanren and Heiguo disappeared, and we were the only ones left to resist the siege of those ghosts and gods. When we were about to give up, Wuhu Sanren and Heiguo came back. Wuhu Sanren was covered in wounds, and Heiguo was carrying the unconscious Chen Shi on his back."

Her face showed a strange expression as she said, "We fought our way out and returned to the mortal world. Wu Hu San Ren was obviously seriously injured, but he didn't care to rest. He kept adding seals to Chen Shi's forehead, forming an illusion of a heavenly palace ruled by all the gods in the universe."

The corner of Hanshan's eye twitched, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Zhou Tian Da Jiao?"

Mrs. Hua Li hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly.

"impossible!"

Han Shan said decisively, "The Zhoutian Grand Ceremony has been lost for thousands of years. Wuhu Sanren cannot perform the Zhoutian Grand Ceremony! The Zhoutian Grand Ceremony symbolizes the harmony and order of the gods in the universe. He cannot restore the Zhoutian Grand Ceremony. He can only use fragments at best!"

Madam Hua Li said, "I am not well-educated enough to know if it is a fragment. I only know that after Wu Hu San Ren sealed Chen Shi, Chen Shi returned to his physical body and often went to Jing Hu Villa to be raised. When I met him, he didn't remember who I was. All his memories from two years ago seemed to have disappeared."

Hanshan and Qianke were stunned.

It was Chen Shi’s ghost that Chen Yindu rescued from the underworld, and it was Chen Shi’s ghost that was sealed with the Zhoutian Dajiao.

Obviously, the Zhoutian Dajiao seal is not used to seal the demons in the sea of ​​consciousness.

At that time, the demon had not yet entered Chen Shi's sea of ​​consciousness. After being sealed, Chen Shi returned to his physical body and woke up, forgetting all his previous memories, as if he was reborn.

So, did Chen Shi lose his memory because he had been dead for too long, or because he was sealed by Chen Yindu?
If it is the latter, what exactly does Chen Yindu want to seal?
"Chen Shi is hiding a lot of secrets." The two elders Han Qian thought to themselves.

"Hanshan, Wuhu Sanren himself hasn't solved this problem, so we should not interfere."

Qianke Sanren said solemnly, "I think if we are a little more timid, we may be able to live a few more years."

Hanshan nodded repeatedly.

Although they all had some complaints about Chen Yin, they admired his strength and wisdom.

If they rashly intervene in something that even Chen Yin can't handle, they might die without knowing how they died.

"No wonder Granny Sha yelled at me. She didn't mean to yell at me. She's just been under too much pressure lately."

Hanshan Sanren said, "She still has me as her teacher in her heart."

Having said that, he still felt a little aggrieved.

Mrs. Hua Li held back her laughter, said goodbye and left.

The two elders Han Qian saw him off.

At Phoenix Ridge, Chen Shi dispersed the thunderclouds covering the sky, raised the shrine, and with the light from the shrine, searched the Taiping Gate inside and out.

He was looking for the Resurrection Lotus collected by Taiping Gate.

When he passed by the altar, he saw Xiao Dingxiang, Xiaotian and a dozen other children still standing on the altar. There had been thunder and lightning just now, and they were soaked in the rain. They were still waiting for the master's instructions and did not dare to leave.

These children seemed unaware that they were the only ones left at Taiping Gate, and were still waiting for the underworld to open so that they could steal white lotus.

Chen Shi stopped and stretched out his hand. A cow-ear knife in his palm turned into a skylark, flapped its wings and flew in front of Xiao Dingxiang.

Little Lilac looked at the skylark flying around her, feeling surprised and happy. She raised her palm, and the skylark landed in her palm, jumping around and pecking her fingers.

"You are the little bird picking white lotuses!"

Xiao Dingxiang was overjoyed. She ran towards Chen Shi and said with a smile, "You are the boy who asked for help! You are still alive! That's great, that's great! I thought you were dead!"

She jumped for joy and laughed till tears came down.

Another little boy said timidly: "Little Dingxiang, don't make noise. Aunt Wei will whip you..."

Chen Shi smiled and said, "Your Aunt Wei will never beat you again. I have killed the evil people on this mountain. You are free now. When daybreak comes, I will have someone send you home!"

The boys and girls in front of the altar were all stunned, not daring to believe what he said.

At this time, a dozen skinny boys and girls came over, and one child cried, "Aunt Wei is dead, so many people are dead..."

Some brave children went to check and found that it was just as he said.

Some of them were frightened, some cheered loudly, and some were so scared that they squatted on the ground and cried.

Chen Shi asked Xiao Dingxiang, "Do you know where the white lotus you picked is placed?"

"Know!"

Little Dingxiang said, "Every time we pick white lotus, the steward will collect it and put it in a box. Then the box will be sent to the master's room."

Chen Shi smiled and said, "Take me there."

Xiao Dingxiang led the way in front and led him to Peng Wanshan's residence.

Peng Wanshan was a Taoist who had no interest in women. He lived without any family or servants. It was obvious that he was concentrating on his cultivation and had no distractions.

Such people are very rare.

"No wonder his cultivation is so high."

Chen Shi secretly praised and entered Master Peng's room. He searched around and found the box that Xiao Dingxiang mentioned.

There was an extremely complex talisman seal on the box, with a picture of a ghost head with an open mouth.

When opening the box, you need to put your hand into the ghost's mouth to break the seal. If you cannot open the talisman seal correctly, your arm will be bitten off!

Chen Shi took a quick glance and knew how to open the talisman, so he reached in and opened the seal.

The box is opened.

The internal space of this box is quite large. It should have been blessed with talismans such as the Taotie Swallowing Heaven Talisman, but the accomplishment is not very high. It is only three or four times larger than the internal space of a normal box.

There were layers of white lotuses stacked in the box, about three or four hundred in total. I guess the people at Taiping Gate had been collecting them for a long time and were preparing to send them to Yudu together.

"That young master from Yudu said that the quantity is not enough. I guess he needs a large amount of Resurrection Lotus to practice some kind of martial arts."

Chen Shi's heart moved slightly, remembering that when he took the Resurrection Lotus, his soul became stronger than ever before, and he thought, "Could this lotus be a treasure for cultivating the Yuan Shen?"

There was also a thick stack of silver bills in the box.

Chen Shi's heart was pounding. He picked it up and flipped through it. Most of them were silver notes worth one hundred taels each, which were passes to Wansan Money House!

This kind of silver note can be exchanged for silver in any money house in any province or county in Xiniu Xinzhou!

Unlike the silver notes of some small money houses, they can only be exchanged for silver at special money houses, which is very inconvenient.

Chen Shi estimated that there were at least more than a hundred hundred-liang silver notes here!
"Ten thousand taels of silver... it's a lot! I can build many, many houses and marry many, many wives! I'll marry a big wife to put in the east room, a second wife to put in the west room, a third wife to put in the south room, a fourth wife to put in the north room, and I'll also have to buy seven or eight maids to serve them, and hire a dozen scholars to draw talismans every day to make money to support the family..."

Chen Shi's eyes lit up. "We can also burn a few young old ladies for Grandpa. Old Lady Wuzhu is a bit of a chatterbox, so we won't burn her. We can burn someone 20 years younger... But Grandpa said that we can't take money from the dead..."

He put the banknote down, his face uncertain.

After a while, he picked up the banknote again.

Chen Shi gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with tears, put down the banknote, turned around and was about to leave, but turned back before he even walked out of the house.

"Grandpa, please forgive me for being unfilial and disobeying your teachings. I want to test how powerful this ghost is!"

Chen Shi held the box and went out happily. With this step, he became the wealthy man Chen.
