Those years in Konoha

"Someone came to see me about my stay in Maoshan. Most people don't know about it." Zhang Tianci pondered slightly.

Dou Biqiang smiled and said: "Master, please sit down and relax. We will know at ten o'clock in the morning."

Zhang Tianci nodded, washed up first, and then drank morning tea with Dou Biqiang.

"Master Chen Xu, I haven't seen him in Xuyun Temple. Is he wandering outside?" Zhang Tianci took a moment and asked.

When he came here, Zhang Tianci rarely mentioned Chen Xu. Now before leaving, Zhang Tianci wanted to inquire about Chen Xu's whereabouts.

Dou Biqiang shook his head slightly and said: "He is always very busy, and I don't know what he is busy with. Seven or eight days ago, he called and said that he was hosting some meeting of overseas Taoist sects in Nanyang overseas. Alas, he can't handle things at home. , he also wants to run overseas."

Judging from his tone, Dou Biqiang was quite dissatisfied and disappointed with this apprentice.

"Family affairs, national affairs, and world affairs should be taken care of. Master Chen is enthusiastic about Taoism, which is also a blessing to Taoism in the world." Zhang Tianci said.

"It is difficult for this son to become a great person. The future of the Maoshan Sect is uncertain." Dou Biqiang sighed.

"Senior is being too modest." Zhang Tianci hurriedly changed the subject and said, "It's almost ten o'clock, and I don't know who will come to see me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mingyue Qingfeng came in and announced, "Old temple master, there is a bearded man in front of you who wants to see you and Da Zhenren."

"Come on." Dou Biqiang chuckled, waved and said, "Invite."

Zhang Tianci was confused. Dou Biqiang's calculations were so accurate. Could he have found someone to collude with him and play a double act to deceive him?

There were footsteps outside the door, and a loud voice said: "Zhong Kui in the underworld, I want to see Master Dou, and I want to see the Master of Heaven."

Damn it, the precious apprentice is here. Zhang Tianci stood up.

Dou Biqiang also stood up and said, "Are you the Celestial Master Zhong Kui from the underworld? Please come in."

In a flash, Zhong Kui walked in and saluted again.

In broad daylight, Zhong Kui was wearing ordinary clothes and looked like a stranger.Only the beard on his face does not look like modern people.

Zhang Tianci looked sideways at his apprentice without saying anything or returning the courtesy.

Dou Biqiang was a little surprised. He didn't know why Zhang Tianci was so arrogant towards Zhong Kui. After returning the courtesy, he introduced to Zhang Tianci: "Master Da Zhen, this is the famous Celestial Master of the Underworld, the ghost-eating Zhong Kui."

"I've known him for a long time. This old guy has dealt with me several times." Zhang Tianci nodded and asked Zhong Kui, "What are you doing here?"

Outside the door just now, Zhong Kui only said that he wanted to see the Master of Heavenly Master, but not the master, which meant that Zhong Kui did not want to make this relationship public.Zhang Tianci did not tell the truth, but still maintained his master's arrogance.

Zhong Kui grinned and said, "I'm here to ask for help from the great master."

"What do you want me to do?" Zhang Tianci was surprised, he was really tricked by Dou Biqiang.

If someone else came to invite him, Zhang Tianci would think that it might be Dou Biqiang's arrangement.But the one who came was his apprentice, so the possibility of performing an double act was absolutely ruled out.

"Two heavenly masters, please sit down and talk." Dou Biqiang observed his words and said.

Zhang Tianci nodded and sat down first.

Zhong Kui also sat down and said: "The great master is enjoying himself here, but he doesn't know that the underworld is in chaos. This time, it is King Qin Guang of the underworld who asked me to invite you."

"There will be chaos in the underworld, right?" Zhang Tianci asked calmly.

"The city of Fengdu is still stable for the time being. But the ghost roads of Kyushu are all in chaos." Zhong Kui sighed and said:

"Originally, I was only responsible for the affairs of Waishi City, but now I have been ordered to put aside the affairs of Waishi City and participate in quelling the rebellion. However, there is a ghost-faced man behind these rebellious Nine Provinces Wandering Souls, who is very powerful. Black and White Wuchang said, that ghost-faced man People obey Da Zhenren, so King Qin Guang asked me to invite him. I also searched for a long time before I found out that Da Zhenren was in Maoshan."

A few days ago, Zhang Tianci was overseas and fell into a trap of ten demons. At that time, even the five ghosts and boys couldn't see through the demon trap, so Zhong Kui naturally couldn't find Zhang Tianci.

"Last time, the ghosts in Jizhou Ghost Road and Yangzhou Ghost Road were in trouble. Wasn't it settled? And why would the underworld think that I can deal with the ghost-faced man?" Zhang Tianci frowned.

The ghost-faced man appeared again, and riots broke out in the ghost roads of Jiuzhou at the same time, which Zhang Tianci also found difficult.The Ghost-Faced Man said last time that when we meet again, we will never show mercy.

Zhong Kui grinned and said: "That's what Black and White Wuchang said. They said that on the Jizhou Ghost Road and Yangzhou Ghost Road, the ghost-faced people will turn around and leave when they see you. So everyone thinks that the ghost-faced people are afraid of you."

"Nothing." Zhang Tianci thought for a while and said, "What did King Qin Guang say?"

"Your Majesty said, please ask the great master to come forward and lead the Dao disciples in the world to suppress the ghost-faced man." Zhong Kui said.

Zhang Tianci shook his head and said: "I have not officially succeeded to the throne, so I am not qualified to lead everyone. The ghost-faced man comes and goes without a trace, and I may not be able to find him."

"The ghost-masked man has collected a lot of wandering souls, and he is advancing on the ghost road, trying to break through the ghost gate. As long as the Daoist is outside the ghost gate, he will definitely encounter the ghost-masked man." Zhong Kui said.

"I still have to think about this matter." Zhang Tianci stood up, bowed his head to Dou Biqiang, and said, "Junior, I will take my leave now. Senior, please take care of yourself. If you have the opportunity, I will come to visit you again."

In front of Dou Biqiang, Zhang Tianci had some words that were difficult to say. After leaving Xuyun Temple, Zhang Tianci and Zhong Kui were masters and disciples and could talk openly and honestly.

"Da Zhenren has something to do, so I won't stay. I'll leave slowly without seeing him off." Dou Biqiang said goodbye.

Zhang Tianci and Zhong Kui said goodbye and took Shenwa down the mountain.

Walking halfway up the mountain and seeing no one behind him, Zhang Tianci grabbed Zhong Kui's beard and shouted in a low voice: "Zhong Yang, what the hell is going on here?"

Zhong Yang was Zhong Kui's name in his previous life, and Zhang Tianci was used to being called that.

"Ouch, master, let me go, let me go," Zhong Kui cried out in pain, begging for mercy again and again.

Zhang Tianci let go of his hand and asked: "Why is the underworld so cowardly that it can't even deal with some wandering souls?"

Zhong Kui touched his chin and said: "This time, the underworld is really in big trouble. The ghost-faced man is very treacherous. He knows that the underworld does not dare to send troops on a large scale, so he keeps forcing him. The movement this time is better than the last time in Jizhou Ghost Road and Yangzhou The movement in the ghost realm is even greater. If the underworld sends out troops on a large scale, it will definitely affect the human world. Therefore, the situation is passive."

"What's the current situation like?" Zhang Tianci asked.

"The situation is in chaos. There are teams of wandering souls advancing on the Jiuzhou ghost path, forcing them to the gate of ghosts. The new dead souls on the ghost path are also wrapped up by the wandering ghosts. Thousands of them are like a tide, and they are powerful. It’s so majestic.” Zhong Kui said.

"There is no countermeasure in the underworld." Zhang Tianci frowned. See more Weixin official account: hhxs665
