Chapter 291: Guardian God
Towards evening, Zhang Yuan returned to Xishanji.

He wandered around the ruins for most of the day with Chen Zian's face on his face.

In addition to arranging the distribution of porridge for relief, the main task was to find out information from all sides so as to avoid being cut off from the outside world.

It’s just that Xiaxu is very peaceful, there hasn’t been any big news recently, and the guests in restaurants and teahouses mostly talk about love affairs and anecdotes.

However, there are fewer beggars and hungry people in the streets.

When he returned to Xishanji, out of caution, Zhang Yuan first asked the Red-eyed Crow to check his own situation in the air.

Be careful of the enemy setting an ambush.

As a result, he actually found someone at home!

After seeing the other person's appearance clearly, Zhang Yuan was very surprised and immediately quickened his speed to rush over.

He did not forget to take off his mask on the way.

When we arrived at the place, we pushed open the half-open door.

Zhang Yuan saw a Taoist priest in a green robe with an extraordinary temperament standing in the courtyard, with his hands behind his back, seemingly lost in thought.

And I heard the sound of the door hinge turning.

The Taoist turned around and smiled at Zhang Yuan: "Brother Zhao, how are you these days?"

The other party was Xuan Cheng!

Zhang Yuan never thought that Xuan Cheng, who had been in seclusion for a long time, would come to his home today.

He could be 100% sure that the other party must have come for the matter of Xuanxin and Huineng.

It was normal for the Heavenly King Palace to find out that Xuanxin and Huineng were in trouble, and it was not surprising that they traced the problem to Zhang Yuan.

After all, the many secret techniques of Taoism are beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

But he came so quickly, and the person who came was Xuan Cheng, which was completely beyond Zhang Yuan's expectations!
But the other way around.

The Heavenly King Palace sent Xuan Cheng to find him, and the meaning behind this was very subtle.

Zhang Yuan sighed: "It's not bad, it's good to be alive."

Xuan Cheng was speechless, then smiled and said, "I think you should know why I'm here, right?"

"Ah."

Zhang Yuan nodded and made an inviting gesture to the other party: "Let's go in and talk."

Xuan Cheng did not have the slightest hostility, and his tone even contained a hint of joy and relief at a long-awaited reunion.

It was naturally impossible for Zhang Yuan to go into battle with him.

After sitting down in the main room, Zhang Yuan asked, "When did you come out of seclusion?"

Xuan Cheng answered frankly, "Last night, it was Master Huizhi who asked me to come out, and that's when I realized something was wrong."

The first seat of wisdom and intelligence!

Zhang Yuan was shocked.

Huizhi is the master of the Temple of Heavenly Kings and the only great wizard in the temple, with unfathomable strength.

However, Abbot Huizhi focused on his spiritual practice, and all affairs inside and outside the hall were left to the elders of the branch halls. Therefore, he had never met this great master before.

Despite this, Zhang Yuan also knew Huizhi's great reputation.

The Palace of Heavenly Kings is able to operate independently from the many forces in Xiaxu, take on some of the responsibilities of the government, occupy the central tower without anyone coveting it, and gain the faith of all the people.

It has a great relationship with the chief of the temple!
He is also one of the pillars of Xiaxu.

Zhang Yuan asked curiously, "Did Master Huizhi ask you to come and capture me?"

"Do not."

Xuan Cheng answered seriously, "Master Huizhi wants to know the details."

Zhang Yuan hesitated for a moment and said, "Wait a moment."

He got up and went to the bedroom, went into the tunnel and took out some items hidden in the secret room.

Then he went back to the main room and placed these things on the table.

They are all spoils captured from Xuanxin and Huineng!

Then, Zhang Yuan told Xuan Cheng the whole story.

He had a clear conscience, so he was not afraid to tell the truth. Of course, he had to gloss over the things that needed to be concealed.

For example, regarding the bodies of Xuan Xin and others, Zhang Yuan only said that they were all burned to ashes.

This is completely normal and reasonable.

“These are what they left behind.”

Zhang Yuan finally said: "If it involves the secrets of the temple, I am willing to return it for free."

Xuan Cheng listened quietly without expressing any opinion.

He thought for a moment and said, "I understand the situation. How to deal with it will be decided by Master Huizhi."

The wizard immediately took out the talisman paper, used his fingers as a pen and his magic power as ink, and wrote a talisman.

Then cast a spell to send it out.

After sending the talisman, Xuan Cheng picked up the golden talisman seized from Huineng and said in a deep voice: "This is the Golden Light Life-Protecting Mysterious Talisman, one of the relics left by Master Mingkong."

Mingkong is the last Taoist of the "Ming" generation in the Heavenly King Hall. He is also the uncle of the abbot Huizhi.

He passed away twenty years ago.

What this great wizard is best at is refining weapons and making talismans.

The several mysterious weapons currently stored in the Taoist treasury of the Heavenly King Palace were all made by Mingkong.

The mysterious golden talisman for protecting life is also one of the masterpieces of Master Mingkong.

Once this talisman is activated, the holder will be blessed with a layer of defensive golden light, which can withstand attacks below the seventh level and can also rebound attacks and damage from the enemy.

The power is amazing!

However, the mysterious golden light life-protecting talisman is a one-time talisman and will become useless after use.

There are five golden life-protecting talismans left by Master Mingkong, and only elder-level figures are eligible to redeem them.

There is only one left in the current Dao Curry.

After Xuan Cheng finished speaking, he smiled and said, "Are you really willing to return it to the temple?"

Zhang Yuan nodded: "Of course."

He killed Xuanxin and Huineng not because he wanted to be an enemy of the Heavenly King Palace.

In fact, Zhang Yuan’s favorable impression of the Heavenly King Palace is much greater than that of the Angry Whale Gang.

If these things could be used to resolve the hostility from the Heavenly King Palace, Zhang Yuan would be completely willing to do so.

But the Heavenly King Palace wanted to hold him accountable.

There is no way Zhang Yuan would surrender!

Xuan Cheng chuckled.

He also identified the many talismans and elixirs left by Xuan Xin, and told Zhang Yuan the names and functions of these items clearly without any reservation.

Not long after, a streak of light suddenly flew into the room.

Xuan Cheng reached out and held it.

This is the reply from Abbot Huizhi!
Xuan Cheng finished reading it quickly and his eyes became a little strange.

He asked, "Brother Zhao, are you hiring people to set up tents in the outer market to provide porridge relief to the hungry people in the name of Yuanshi Tianwang?"

Zhang Yuan nodded: "Yes."

Zhang Yuan didn't expect that the Heavenly King Palace would know about this matter so quickly.

"No wonder, no wonder!"

Xuan Cheng said "no wonder" twice in a row, and his eyes looked at Zhang Yuan differently: "Master Huizhi asked me to ask you, are you willing to serve as the guardian general of this temple?"

The guardian deity is a very special existence in the Temple of Heavenly Kings.

Unlike the guardians of the inner hall and the outer hall, the guardian general has the same status as the elders in the hall and does not need to obey the orders of anyone except the abbot.

As for the corresponding treatment and benefits, they are no worse than those of the elders!
The last guardian deity of the Xiaxu Tianwang Palace died in a battle with a strange monster more than ten years ago.

There has been no new successor so far.

Even Xuan Cheng didn't expect this.

Master Huizhi actually intends to assign such an important position to Zhang Yuan!
