Descending upon the terrifying heavens as a superman

Chapter 34 Master Ren's Ancestral Tomb

What is the foundation?

If you're a student, it would naturally be subjects like Chinese, math, drawing, history, music, or history and physics from primary and secondary school.

But for someone who practices cultivation, these foundations are various Taoist knowledge, such as the three souls and seven spirits. Which three souls and which seven spirits, where do they reside, what are their attributes, and which parts of the human body do they govern?

These are the basic knowledge of Taoist cultivation.

Zhang Yue always felt that it was the right thing for him to come and learn from Uncle Jiu. Uncle Jiu's words alone demonstrated his solid foundation in Taoist knowledge.

It's no wonder that Wencai's cultivation in Taoism is so superficial; he can't even grasp the basics of Taoism. Without a solid foundation, how can he talk about cultivating Taoist arts and magical powers?

But these kinds of things are boring and tedious, and it's normal that most people can't get into them.

To Zhang Yue's surprise, Master Si Mu actually offered a solution: to get him a pair of glasses.

"Although I can't cure your eyes, I can give you a magical artifact so that you won't be blind for the time being. It's this one I'm wearing."

"Hehe, because I often work day and night, traveling at night and resting during the day, my natal energy is weak, so I used my eyes to cultivate a magical artifact for myself."

Master Four Eyes pointed to his glasses with some pride, "Don't underestimate these glasses. Besides enhancing the aura of the fetus, they are also a magical artifact that can subdue demons and exorcise evil spirits."

"As long as you channel magic into it and control it with incantations, it can fight monsters..."

Zhang Yue recalled the image of Master Four Eyes using these glasses to shoot laser beams at a fox spirit, but it didn't seem to be in Mr. Zombie...

"I can't see anything..." Zhang Yue put on his glasses and looked around, but everything was still blurry.

"Oh, of course you can't see it. I developed this for myself, and I need to modify it before you can use it, but..."

Master Simu chuckled, said nothing, but rubbed his thumb and forefinger together.

Zhang Yue immediately understood and pulled out a watch that seemed more contemporary from his backpack. "Master, how about this?"

"This is a Western watch. Once wound up, it can run for many days without stopping. It can sell for dozens of dollars outside."

"A watch..." A hint of greed flashed in the eyes of the Four-Eyed Taoist, but he immediately shook his head. "That's not enough. My magic artifact will cost at least a hundred silver dollars."

"Junior brother—" Uncle Nine glared at him irritably.

"Hehe, senior brother, you know how expensive it is to cultivate Taoism and practice martial arts. This is just the cost price..."

Wealth, companions, methods, and land—don't think that Uncle Nine and his group don't spend money. In fact, quite the opposite is true. Practicing martial arts and cultivating Taoism are all things that cost a lot of money.

Otherwise, Master Four Eyes wouldn't have risked his life to help people transport corpses in this chaotic world. You have to understand that this was an era with guns. No matter how high your Taoist skills and martial arts are, you can't stop a few bullets.

"Taoist Master, how about this?" Zhang Yue smiled slightly, took out his money bag from his bag, and counted out thirty silver dollars.

In modern times, silver is no longer currency; it is merely an industrial metal with a very low price.

Fortunately, he had come prepared and bought over a hundred silver dollars on Pinduoduo. Since silver was cheaper than gold in modern times, Zhang Yue planned to exchange them for a few small yellow croakers to take back with him...

After paying the full amount, Master Four Eyes patted his chest and said, "Alright, leave it to me. I guarantee you'll see the sunrise in the next two days."

Uncle Nine's expression softened as he nodded and said to Zhang Yue, "Young man, you can rest at the mortuary tonight. I will treat your eye ailment tomorrow."

……

Zhang Yue thus settled down at the mortuary.

Master Four Eyes also accepted the money and did the job. The next day, he went out to buy materials to help Zhang Yue modify his glasses.

Although he may be slightly inferior to Uncle Nine in terms of Taoist cultivation, he is stronger than Uncle Nine in other aspects. For example, he invented this magical artifact, the glasses. Uncle Nine is too rigid and cannot make such a thing.

Every day, Zhang Yue would either chant scriptures and practice martial arts with his Uncle Jiu, or discuss Taoist arts with him. Although his Uncle Jiu couldn't practice them, he was extremely interested in Western Taoist arts.

Also interested was Master Four Eyes. After learning that Zhang Yue had received some of the teachings from the Western masters while studying abroad, he kept pestering Uncle Nine.

Finally, Uncle Nine, unable to bear his persistence any longer, lent him the roll of cling film and the sponge that Zhang Yue had given him for his research, and only then did he give up.

That evening, Zhang Yue was studying how to draw talismans using Mengjie sponges, wanting to test if it would work on zombies, when he suddenly heard several terrified and urgent cries from outside.

"Help!"

"master……"

Zhang Yue stepped out of the guest room and his expression changed slightly, because it was a zombie reanimation...

Under the moonlight, a group of zombies—or rather, Four-Eyes Taoist's clients—had their yellow talismans torn off and were out of control.

Driven by instinct, under the moonlight, they began to seek out living creatures, hoping to absorb their blood to replenish themselves and achieve the goal of evolution.

Their bodies are as hard as iron, and punches and kicks are completely useless against them.

Qiu Sheng, who was relatively skilled in martial arts, was able to maneuver among them and occasionally repel them, but Wen Cai, who was relatively weak in martial arts, was in a terrible situation. He was chased around by them and was scratched from time to time.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Yue suddenly remembered that this was the beginning of Mr. Zombie, when Qiu Sheng was playing tricks on Wen Cai, but he messed up and was accidentally freed by these zombies, almost getting killed.

It's important to know that, in order to facilitate transportation and prevent decay, Master Four Eyes' guests were all made into genuine zombies. Although they had never drunk blood, they were the kind that could kill.

Suddenly, a zombie, perhaps having failed to catch them, immediately turned its attention to Zhang Yue after sensing the third living presence...

It hopped and skipped toward him, opening its rotten and foul-smelling mouth, revealing four sharp teeth as it lunged to bite him.

Zhang Yue had experience dealing with ghosts, but he had no experience dealing with zombies.

Instinctively, Zhang Yue used the anti-gravity of Meng Jie Sponge to envelop his feet and kicked the zombie.

Whoosh!

The zombie's weight decreased, and Zhang Yue kicked it more than ten meters away.

But this thing is not afraid of pain, injury, or fear. Before Zhang Yue could continue his experiment with a look of joy, several more zombies surrounded him.

Holy crap!

The best of the Thirty-Six Stratagems is to flee; a wise man doesn't fight a losing battle. He could only subconsciously run towards the beams and pillars, using the anti-gravity force of the sponge to quickly reach the roof.

Master Simu's clients jumped a few times, but could only jump two meters high. They had never drunk human blood, so they were not strong enough to jump up, and they anxiously circled around below.

"Help! Help me..."

"Brother Zhang, please save us!"

Wencai and Qiusheng below are still calling for help. Unlike in the original story, Uncle Jiu and Master Simu are not here to save them.

Once they run out of energy, they may be killed by the zombies...

Zhang Yue pondered for a moment, then came up with an idea. He tossed them the yellow talisman he had drawn with a sponge, saying, "I have some talismans here. Try to see if you can immobilize them..."
