Who let him join the Sword Sect!

Chapter 22 Grandpa Wang's Story 1
Zhang Ze opened his eyes and woke up from the 18-square-meter bed.

The ball was now rolling around in his chest.

Four days have passed since I picked up this little ball.

Zhang Ze, the wise and brave Senior Sister Qiao, his master, and even the Pavilion Master did not know the origin of this little ball.

On the flying boat returning to the sect, Senior Sister Qiao and Old Li tried various methods to get the ball away from Zhang Ze.

But all failed.

Lao Li tried many traditional methods.

For example, sealing, exorcism, and other methods that normal human cultivators should come up with.

All to no avail.

Qiao Lezhi tried many non-human methods, but all of them were ineffective.

For example, crushing.

Her immense strength was powerless against the tiny ball.

She also tried to step on the accelerator of the flying boat and throw the ball out of the boat.

But no matter how far she threw it, the ball would suddenly appear in a corner of the flying boat after five seconds.

Then he skipped back to Zhang Ze.

Senior Sister Qiao even wanted to try eating the little ball raw.

But he was stopped by Zhang Ze and Elder Li.

In short, I have no idea.

Therefore, on the way back, the two of them were frowning.

Qiao Lezhi felt that he was too careless and broke the seal, causing his junior brother Zhang Ze to be entangled by the small ball.

Old Li felt that it was his negligence and lack of vigilance towards the ball that led to this situation.

In short, it's all their own fault.

On the contrary, Zhang Ze kept comforting the two of them on the way back, saying that he was fine.

After leaving the underground, Zhang Ze calmed down.

He felt that given the nature of the system, something like Lao Li wanting to hit him would trigger an emergency task.

If this ball is really dangerous, it might have bounced around in front of my eyes.

Just like Mr. Wang, there is a countdown ticking in front of me.

But now there is nothing in front of me, it is quiet and the system is as dead as a dead body.

And Zhang Ze also has his own guesses about this small ball.

The mission to get the ball is called [Awakening from a Dream and Rebirth]

The quest for the snake statue is called [Unawakened Snake]

The system said that the task is permanently disappeared, which only refers to the [Unawakened Snake] series of tasks and the related [Lurking]

Zhang Ze felt that [Unawakened Snake] was the major prerequisite task for [Awakening from a Dream and Rebirth].

According to the mission, Zhang Ze needs to gain the trust of the Spirit Snake Rudder through [Lurking], and then get the opportunity to approach the statue.

Then trigger a mission to seize the statue.

Until he smashed the statue's head and saw the small coffin.

Finally the mission [Awakening from a Dream and Rebirth] will be triggered.

The answer to the task is this little ball.

But what Zhang Ze couldn't understand was what the relationship was between this small ball and the Thousand Machines Technique, and why it was sealed in the spirit snake statue.

So, when Zhang Ze returned to the sect and was dragged by Lao Li to the Pavilion Master, he did not pretend that he was fine.

He also wanted to let the Pavilion Master see it.

But even the Pavilion Master couldn't tell what this small ball was.

Although the Pavilion Master himself was not clear about it, he attached great importance to it.

Therefore, Zhang Ze was arranged to have a room with an 18-square-meter bed.

It is said that this room has the effect of suppressing evil spirits and eliminating evil thoughts.

No matter whether this little ball is an opportunity or a tribulation, as long as I stay in this big house for the time being, I will be fine.

This house also has a history.

Listen to Grandpa Wang's bragging stories.

When the Pavilion Master first became the Pavilion Master, he once captured a giant ape.

But the giant ape was unruly and undisciplined, and the evil spirit in it was difficult to remove.

The Pavilion Master built this huge house for the giant ape to live in. The formation in the house can suppress evil spirits and cleanse the evil heart.

The Pavilion Master would come to talk with the giant ape after three o'clock every morning, teaching him human etiquette and the righteous way of thinking.

The giant ape finally turned over a new leaf and became the disciple of the Pavilion Master.

He also melted the iron rod he used to do evil, made a part of it into a ring and put it on his head as a warning.

The rest forged a giant sword as a magical weapon after their rebirth.
Finally, he bid farewell to the Pavilion Master and headed west to hone his sword skills.

The monkey's surname is Sun.

After hearing this, Zhang Ze felt it was outrageous, but he didn't want to ask more questions.

He was afraid that if they talked for a while longer, Grandpa Wang would tell him that the Pavilion Master lived in Liangshan Marsh before he became an immortal.

Anyway, when Zhang Ze had nothing to do these days, all he had in his mind was Journey to the West.

For example, Zhu Bajie went in and out of the Kingdom of Women seven times.

Zhang Ze spent the rest of his time reading.

A small part of it is the secret manuals of Qi training, and the rest is miscellaneous gossip and anecdotes about this land of four continents.

Compared with the martial arts, these random talks are more interesting, probably because I have heard too many bragging stories from Grandpa Wang.

Zhang Ze picked up a copy of "Records of the Four Continents" beside his pillow and continued reading the book he had not finished yesterday.

"Records of the Four Continents" tells the history of the four continents and some of their customs and practices. The author is a purple-robed Taoist priest from Mount Longhu who loves traveling.

Tens of thousands of years ago, Dongzhou was not called Dongzhou, it was called Dongqi.

It is a human monk empire with a very unoriginal setting, similar to those Great Wei and Great Zhou in various novels today.

To the west of Dongqi is a very unconventional barbarian tribe, where the barbarians live happily in their unconventional little leather skirts.

A very unoriginal man with a passion for the battlefield, making friends through boxing.

This very unoriginal woman dares to love and hate and is often taken home by rogue monks from Dongqi.

They had a rather unoriginal fight.

The idle and chaotic demon tribe in the north also united together in a very unoriginal way and joined the team battle.

Then the world was divided into four continents.

Dongqi was defeated, the royal bloodline died out, and each sect and family became independent, demarcating their own territories and not invading each other.

The place where each immortal sect governs itself.

Dongqi became Dongzhou.

What it looks like is probably the same as in "Under the Sky".

The barbarians retreated to the west, to the land that had always been called the Western Barbarians by the scholars of Eastern Qi.

But now Dongqi is gone, so the tribal leaders in the west gathered together for a meeting and discussed it, and decided to change the name of their place to Xizhou.

Although everyone is tired and doesn't want to fight anymore, they must not lose in terms of momentum.

The happiest ones were of course the demon clan. After all, they were truly independent, and all the land north of Qianlian Mountain became the demon clan's territory.

Because of the mountains, the place is almost isolated from the outside world, and the old Taoist priest only went there a few times occasionally.

According to the old Taoist priest, the customs of the demon tribe are extremely chaotic and are despised by cultivators like us.

By the way, the demon tribe is not bound by rules and declares that their home is called the North.

But the barbarians and the righteous sects in Dongzhou did not listen and still called them Beizhou.

Without Nanzhou, the continent is in the shape of a triangle. The fourth continent is Zhongzhou, which was the battlefield where the war took place.

Although the Great Dao was not destroyed, the entire Central Continent was almost shattered.

Even the barbarians in Western Continent said that even dogs wouldn't live in Central Continent.

Therefore, Central China became a buffer zone between the three forces.

Of course, these words were not the original text of the "Records of the Four Continents" in Zhang Ze's hand.

The old Taoist priest of Mount Longhu was knowledgeable and had an incisive writing style. He narrated that period of history in a dramatic way, like the endless flow of a river.

But in Zhang Ze's view, this is how things are.

Zhang Ze put down the "Records of the Four Continents" and picked up a book called "Miscellaneous Talks on Wild Ghosts" written by a former Demonic Master.

After this demon master became a monk, he carried a ghost-head sword and ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddhist scriptures every day. In his spare time, he would write about his glorious deeds.

Zhang Ze liked the part where the Venerable teased the female cultivator of Tianzong the most, but someone had blacked out the key part with a black pen.

pity.

Just as Zhang Ze was facing the sunlight, trying to see the blackened part clearly, the voice of the Pavilion Master sounded in his ears.

"Don't look at it, I painted it."
