Chapter 42 Two Ghosts
The young Taoist priest said, "Master is inside. I will take you here. I am busy at the front and I have to greet the pilgrims."
Mr. Wang took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and put it into the young Taoist priest's hand, saying, "Thank you for your hard work, young Taoist priest."
The young Taoist priest weighed the silver, stuffed it into his sleeve, and smiled even brighter: "Please."
Mr. Wang took a deep breath and entered the quiet hall.
There was nothing else in the quiet hall except a cloud bed, an incense burner, and a copper lamp.
And the word "eternal life" pasted on the wall behind the cloud bed.
Taoist Master Zhen was sitting on the cloud bed. When he saw Master Wang, he didn't even open his eyes and continued to regulate his breathing.
Mr. Wang didn't dare to disturb them and stood at the door waiting quietly.
Only after standing until his waist and legs were weak did he hear Master Zhen let out a long breath and said, "It's not time yet, why are you here?"
Mr. Wang smiled flatteringly and said, "Master, we are already searching for the tripod furnace you requested. We will definitely deliver it to the mountain on the first day of the month."
Taoist Master Zhen's expression brightened a little. He opened his eyes, looked at him, and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Master Wang then said, "I have been practicing recently, but I feel my body is getting heavier and heavier, and my back is feeling a pressure. I also sprained my waist yesterday. I'm afraid I may have strained my muscles during practice, so I dare not delay and come to ask for your advice."
Taoist Master Zhen gave him a strange look and said, "It's just a few key points of Qi gathering. Can you really do something wrong with this?"
Master Wang heard the contempt in his words, but he didn't dare to get angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "My disciple is dull."
Taoist Master Zhen didn't have the patience to listen to his nonsense. He waved his hand and said, "Forget it. You try your luck and I'll see what went wrong."
Mr. Wang was overjoyed and quickly crawled in front of Taoist Master Zhen, closed his eyes and mobilized the little "magic power" in his body.
Taoist Master Zhen put his hand on his shoulder, feeling the flow of his Qi. Seeing him stumbling like a turtle, he immediately became impatient and thought he was indeed a piece of rotten wood.
She waited patiently for his luck to return to normal before saying, "Are you kidding me? Aren't you okay?"
Master Wang said, "How could that be? My shoulders are heavy and I can hardly walk, and my waist aches unbearably. If it's not a mistake from my training, could it be that I'm being haunted by a ghost?"
Taoist Master Zhen said, "You are not stupid."
Taoist Master Zhen pondered and said, "Your house hasn't been cleaned for some time. I'll go to your house tomorrow to take a look and clean it up."
Mr. Wang said happily, "Thank you, Taoist Priest."
He looked embarrassed again: "What should I do now?"
Taoist Master Zhen said, "It's just a mere evil spirit. I can destroy it with a wave of my hand."
Taoist Master Zhen mobilized his magical powers and chanted, "Venerable Tianyang will respond with his spirit, exorcising ghosts and demons, as fast as the law commands."
Taoist Master Zhen pointed his finger at Mr. Wang, and a red light fell on him, burning like a flame.
The red light disappeared in an instant, and Master Wang suddenly felt relieved. He bowed and said, "Master, your magical powers are boundless, and you will live forever."
When Master Zhen heard him say this, he smiled with a bit of pride: "No matter what kind of ghost it is, it will be reduced to ashes by my Tianyang Divine Fire."
Mr. Wang laughed and said, "Master Zhen is a living immortal. A mere evil spirit would be frightened to death at the sight of him."
Taoist Master Zhen chuckled and said, "You've already mastered the Qi-gathering method. Don't slack off. When my magical power reaches perfection, I'll create a magical elixir. While I can't guarantee your immortality, I can certainly extend your lifespan to over 200 or 300 years."
Mr. Wang was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Taoist priest. When your magical power is great, I will also be able to benefit from it."
Taoist Master Zhen said meaningfully, "The cauldron you sent me is related to my cultivation, so please don't let anything go wrong."
Master Wang said, "Don't worry, Taoist priest, it will only be more, not less! I will go back and supervise them."
Mr. Wang left the Taoist temple excitedly. He was inconvenient when he came, but he was in high spirits when he left.
No one noticed that there was a sparrow perched outside the window, turned its head, and flew away hoppily.
Mr. Wang was impressed by Master Zhen's magical powers and thought that his magic was superb.
Little did they know that in the eyes of the sparrow, the so-called Heavenly Sun Divine Fire was actually a scarlet tongue.
With a light lick of the tongue, not only did he break the winning method that Gong Mengbi had left on Master Wang, but he also scraped away three layers of Master Wang's essence.
He looked vigorous and cheerful, but his effect was similar to that of the "King of Hell's Post" that Gong Mengbi had exposed in Wuning County as a medicine seller.
However, Master Wang still has a group of beautiful ladies who can provide him with nourishment, so even if the effect passes, there will be no visible sequelae.
The sparrow followed Master Wang down the mountain. The carriage swayed slowly towards the county seat of Yongkang County. The sparrow landed on the roof of the carriage and dozed off slowly.
But Gong Mengbi's true body has been hidden in Xilong Mountain.
The daylight gradually darkened.
There are no more pilgrims in the Yin-Yang Temple.
But the candles in the temple are bright and the incense is not extinguished. The incense and candles left by the faithful pilgrims will not go out even if they burn until tomorrow night.
The moon is out.
The young Taoist priest in the Yin-Yang Temple closed the door and reported to Master Zhen: "Master, the time has come."
Taoist Master Zhen nodded and gently twisted the copper lamp holder in the quiet room. As the lotus lamp holder turned, the word "Eternal Life" on the back wall of the cloud bed slowly separated, revealing a stone door.
The master and disciple walked into the stone gate, and the two words "Eternal Life" slowly came together, leaving behind a glorious wall.
Gong Mengbi stood outside the Taoist temple, wanting to go in and see what was going on, but in the end he was afraid of the two big ghosts and did not dare to enter without permission.
After the master and disciple entered the secret room, Venerable Tianyang and Madam Diyin slowly stood up from the shrine in the Taoist temple and patrolled around the temple to protect its safety.
Venerable Tianyang is a yang ghost. His whole body is red and emitting fire. His eyes are like copper bells, with round red pupils. His red hair is raised like fire, and he has a round nose and a round mouth with huge fangs.
Madam Diyin is a ghost. Her whole body is glowing and as white as jade. Her eyes are like thin threads, sharper than a fox's. Occasionally, you can see the blue eyeballs flashing in her thin thread-like eyes. Her black hair is piled up like a mountain, and she has a small nose and a thin mouth, like a red rope.
The Yang Ghost is red in color, with broad and scattered facial features. Its large face is filled with facial features, but its body is long and thin.
The Yin ghost is white, with facial features gathered together, a face like a full moon, but the eyebrows, eyes, mouth and nose are gathered in the center, half of the face is blank, but the body is plump and round.
These two Yin and Yang ghosts are in the form of ghosts and gods, but they are much more powerful than the five ghosts that Gong Mengbi had subdued before.
Taoist Master Zhen, who refined these two ghosts, has a cultivation level far higher than Xu Banxian. Both the Yin and Yang ghosts are of the eighth rank. The ghosts look ferocious, and the gods look majestic, both of them are extraordinary.
Gong Mengbi felt fearful after just one glance during the day, and now when he was secretly observing again, he found that this was beyond his ability to handle.
If there was only one, he would be confident that he could fight, but in the current situation, he could only avoid the attack for the time being.
At this moment, the Yang ghost suddenly turned its head and looked towards the woods.
His flaming eyes looked straight in the direction of Gong Mengbi.
After a moment, the Yang ghost seemed a little confused, but did not delve into it. Instead, he continued to patrol the Taoist temple.
