Yanjiang Little Hell

Qinghan finally recognized that the glittering thing rushing towards him was none other than his beloved disciple whom he had always been worried about.

The master and the disciple met again after a long separation, so naturally they had endless private conversations to share.

It took Qinghan quite a while to figure out the reason why his beloved disciple was dressed so strangely, as well as her experiences after she came down the mountain.

Then he couldn't help but sigh.

He never expected that his apprentice not only did not go hungry, but even lived a life far better than that in the Taoist temple. It was not that he did not know the value of things, and he might not have estimated the price of those gems accurately, but he was very clear about the bag that was made purely of gold thread.

"Master is really happy for you that you have so many opportunities."

Qinghan didn't know at the beginning that he would enter the underworld and become a ghost after his death. Normally, he would drink Mengpo soup soon and forget everything about his past life.

So, no matter how reluctant he was to worry about his beloved disciple, there was nothing he could do because he didn't have time.

But because of that incident in his previous life, he accumulated great merits, so this time he didn't need to reincarnate, and his memories were preserved. He began to worry every day whether his disciple would sleep on the streets. Since he had to guard the small underworld, he could not leave.

The longer the time went on, the more tormented he became.

It was not until Xie Bian came to tell him that his beloved disciple had performed a great deed that the King of Hell allowed her to enter the underworld as a living person.

At this moment, Qinghan was so happy that he couldn't sit still and waited at the entrance of the small underworld early.

"Master, don't worry, I am doing well now."

"But it's very difficult to expand our Huoyun Temple."

Yaoyao scratched his head worriedly. He had been down the mountain for so long, but the temple only accepted one new person. Together with himself and his master, there were only three of them.

As for my master? He no longer counts in the underworld!

However, those grand sightseeing places often have dozens or even hundreds of people, so there is still a huge gap.

Qinghan couldn't help but smile when he heard this and said, "Don't be too stressed about expanding the Taoist temple. Just let it go."

After all, so many generations of temple masters have been like this for so many years, how old is his precious disciple? Just maintain it and be worthy of the ancestors.

With the comfort from her master, Yaoyao was no longer so anxious. She took her master's hand and acted coquettishly, asking him to take her to see the small underworld he was guarding.

"Of course, Master will help you broaden your horizons today."

Qinghan had exactly this idea. Compared with the cowardice he had suffered before his death, after his death he became the master of a prison. He felt more confident and had to save face in front of his disciple.

So, the big and the small actually went to visit the small underworld. Only they were brave enough. If you didn’t know, you would think that this underworld was a supermarket!

The Yanjiang small underworld is affiliated with the Tongue-Pulling Hell in the Eighteen Levels of Hell. The evil ghosts imprisoned here basically have no tongues.

Therefore, the environment of the small underworld is very quiet, and there are no bloody scenes of missing limbs when walking around.

The master and the apprentice chatted from time to time, and their relationship was not much different from before in the Taoist temple.

After a while, Qinghan had to speak up: "Okay, it's almost time, let's go back first."

Although she was reluctant to leave her beloved disciple, she was still a living person after all. Even if she had some skills, it would not be good for her to stay in the underworld for too long. There was still a long time to come. Now that she knew the way this time, it would be much more convenient for her to come next time.

"Master... then I'll go. I'll come back to see you in a few days."

Yaoyao looked back every few steps as she walked, which made Xie Bian, who was leading her, couldn't help but glance at the old man Qinghan.

It must be said that this old Taoist priest is quite amazing. It is quite an ability for him to make the child so close to him.

Compared to the impatience when coming, the process of returning was longer. During the journey, Xie Bian took the initiative to talk about the mistakes made in the underworld during the Ghost Festival.

You won’t know until you check, and you’ll be shocked when you do.

During the Ghost Festival, when the gates of hell were wide open, hundreds of red ghosts escaped, including several ghost generals.

Those few were obviously the members who betrayed the underworld, because those who reached the level of ghost generals were the leaders of a small underworld. Only they took the lead in the rebellion, otherwise it would not be possible for so many evil ghosts to escape.

Hearing this number, Yaoyao's chubby face suddenly turned serious. You know, this number of evil spirits is enough to make the world of the living a mess.

Before Xie Bian's investigation, he had never expected that there would be so many lords of small hells who would defect to the world of the living.

His expression was particularly grim, and he said to Yaoyao: "As Yin gods, it is not easy for us to walk in the human world. You are different."

"You are a Taoist monk, and now you have the soul-catching chain to protect you. You are the best candidate. If you can help the underworld catch those evil ghosts, the King of Hell will reward you with corresponding merits. One merit for each red ghost, and ten merits for each ghost general. I wonder if you are willing to do it?"

Xie Bian did not write a blank check, and the gift of merit was also approved by the King of Hell.

After all, the evil ghost's defection is ultimately the fault of the underworld, and if you want to redeem it, you naturally have to pay a price. For the cultivators in the world, all the underworld can give is the posthumous deity position and merits.

Yaoyao is only three and a half years old. Even if he doesn't make a breakthrough in his cultivation in the future, he will still live for nearly two hundred years. It is too far away to talk about the status of a god after his death.

On the contrary, it is not as practical as merit, because the latter can assist monks in their practice.

When she heard that there could be rewards for good deeds, Yaoyao's big, bright eyes suddenly lit up with excitement.

What she lacks most now is merit. Now that she has the opportunity to earn extra, she certainly won't refuse. She is seen nodding rapidly.

"Master Wuchang, please rest assured. I will try my best to catch those ghosts back."

Yaoyao stretched out her little hand and counted on her fingers, thinking how much merit she could get if she caught all those evil spirits.

After a rough estimate, she found that there were actually several hundred of them, and she suddenly became excited.

Xie Bian looked at the little guy's smile which was getting wider and wider, and he couldn't help but feel puzzled. He had no idea what this little kid was so happy about.

However, this did not affect his relief. After all, someone really needed help to deal with the mess in the underworld.

"Your identity jade card has given you a lot of power. If you need help, you can directly recruit the nearby Yincha."

"Once they sense it, they will obey your command unconditionally."

After all, there are a lot of evil spirits to be caught this time, and there is little hope relying on one person alone. Obviously, unity is needed at this time. Whoever finds the ghosts can make a call, and everyone can work together, so that we can catch them faster.

"You can pay more attention to some dead places with strong yin energy. Those ghost generals are excluded by heaven and earth because of their cultivation, so they can only hide in these places."

"Once you find it, don't be impulsive. Use the token to notify me directly. I will come over immediately. As long as the ghost general is captured because of your information, it will be your credit."

Xie Bian explained seriously. The reason was very simple. Among the group of ghost generals who escaped, there was one who had reached the peak of ghost general and was not far from the ghost king realm.

Although this kid is very talented, he is too young and has not yet entered the ninth realm. With this level of cultivation, he will definitely not be a match for the other party.

If he acted rashly, he would probably put himself in danger. Xie Bian was afraid that the kid would be greedy and act rashly, so he emphasized this.

Obviously, Yaoyao had no intention of showing off. She nodded with a smile on her face and said, "Don't worry, sir. Yaoyao has remembered everything!"

Her main target is still the group of red ghosts, and there is no risk in earning these merits.

As for encountering ghost generals, of course they would fight them in a group. Even without Lord Wuchang's promise, she would do so.

Because the old Taoist priest said that the first priority for a monk is stability. Only by protecting yourself can you protect others.
