Sitting in the hall, Zhang Meng began to see many important figures he had met before.
Among them were Old Man Liao and the leaders of the Mayi Sect and the Emei Sect, whom he had dealt with last time. As for the rest, Zhang Meng had never seen them.
When Mr. Liao came in, he saw Zhang Meng sitting in the hall and walked over with a loud laugh, "Xiao Meng, why are you here?"
Zhang Meng stood up and called out, "Mr. Liao."
"Don't be so polite, come and sit down and chat. You don't know that it's been more than half a year since we last met. The talisman paper I bought from you last time has been used up very few sheets. I was planning to go to you to buy more these days. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that we met here. That's great. Once things here are done, let's have a good chat and discuss the price of the talisman paper." Zhang Meng smiled and nodded.
After waiting for nearly half an hour, Qing Yuan finally called out, "Everyone, thank you for coming here to discuss this important matter."
Zhang Meng, who was standing outside the crowd, rubbed her ears. She was obviously quite far away from Qing Yuan, but why did his voice sound as if he was speaking right next to her?
Just as she was filled with doubts, a soft voice suddenly floated from her chest, "Mom, that old man uses a thousand-mile sound transmission method, so you feel like his voice is speaking in your ear."
After listening to Xiao Zhuang's explanation, Zhang Meng looked down at her with curiosity, "Xiao Zhuang, how come you even know this?"
Xiao Zhuang's cheeks flushed, and he buried his head in Zhang Meng's arms embarrassedly. After a while, a muffled voice floated out from her arms, "I have lived for three hundred years, and I still know a lot about this world."
Zhang Meng smiled, patted his head, looked at the little guy hiding awkwardly, and praised him in his ear, "Xiao Zhuang is really amazing, even better than me."
The next moment, Zhang Meng felt a chuckle coming from his arms.
This meeting lasted for more than an hour before it was considered over.
When Zhang Meng, who was standing outside the crowd, saw Mr. Liao again, she found that the old man looked at her with eyes full of admiration.
"Little Meng, you have worked so hard this time!" Old Master Liao patted her shoulder and spoke earnestly.
Zhang Meng replied in confusion, "It's not hard."
When these great monks who had arrived left, the way they looked at her was similar to the way Grandpa Liao looked at her.
Zhang Meng was completely stunned. After everyone left, Zhang Meng took Xiao Zhuang and went to find Gu Mingtai, who had just participated in the discussion. "How is it?"
Gu Mingtai was silent for a moment, then quickly said, "We've already discussed it. We'll set out at noon tomorrow. You, Youhui, and I will be the three of us. The group of cultivators who came here today will work together to help us open the gate to Hell."
Zhang Meng was surprised when she heard the departure date. "It's so soon! We haven't prepared anything yet."
"Don't worry, we just need to draw some more talisman paper. As for the rest, they will help us prepare it. Don't worry, they want us to get the Resurrection Grass back, so they will definitely prepare the best things for us."
"Yes, Mom, don't worry, Xiao Zhuang will help you when the time comes." Xiao Zhuang's voice floated out again.
Zhang Meng immediately lowered her head and looked at the little guy standing beside her, and immediately refused, "You want to go too? No, the underworld is very dangerous, you can't go, you can't go."
The little zombie immediately pouted and said unhappily, "Mom, don't underestimate me. I may look like a child, but my abilities are no worse than yours. Honestly, you might even need my help at the very last moment."
Zhang Meng was about to continue refusing when her arm was suddenly grabbed by the man next to her. Then she heard his voice, "Let him go! We might actually need him to help us later."
Zhang Meng frowned and turned to look at Gu Mingtai.
"Believe me!" Gu Mingtai patted the back of her hand.
Zhang Meng clasped his hands and sighed, "Alright, you two can handle this matter. I don't care anymore."
After saying this, Zhang Meng turned and went to the guest room.
There is not much time left before the departure date, so she has to hurry up and draw the talisman paper she needs.
Behind her, the big and small children she had left behind were staring at each other.
"Boy, I don't know where you come from, but I warn you, don't hurt my wife, or I'll kill you." Gu Mingtai stared at the little zombie who was not even as tall as his knees with a gloomy face.
"Hmph, don't worry, even if I hurt myself, I won't hurt my mother." After saying that, Xiao Zhuang turned his face away proudly.
Gu Mingtai snorted softly and said again, "That's better. Also, boy, when you get over there, take good care of my wife. Don't let her get hurt, otherwise don't stay with her."
The little stiff put his short hands on his waist and said, "I can do this without my teaching, humph."
After saying that, he took his short legs and ran towards the guest room at a faster pace.
That night, Zhang Meng flipped through the book that Gu Mingtai gave her for the first time, and in the end she actually learned how to draw several other types of talisman paper there.
At the beginning, because I had just started drawing, I couldn’t get it right after several attempts, and it wasn’t until the next day that I finished it.
Time passed quickly and it was time for them to set off.
After having lunch early, everyone, led by Qingyuan, came to the back mountain behind the castle.
It was an empty space with a huge Bagua circle drawn on the ground.
Seeing this symbol, Zhang Meng was a little surprised. She never thought that the leader of a country would have such a thing behind his house.
I wonder what those little Red Soldiers outside who were clamoring to destroy the Four Olds thought when they saw this.
"Everyone, please." Qing Yuan said this solemnly to the five great Taoist masters standing in front of the five jade beads.
"Mr. Qing, you don't have to say this. The country is in danger, and we should take action." One of the five people replied.
