dead body search

Chapter 168 Portrait of the Patriarch
"Quack quack..."

As soon as it flew to Niugang Mountain, the Iron Feather Bustard let out a hearty cry.

The Iron Feather Bustard originally lived in Niugang Mountain, where it inhabits, and it knows where to find Malango.

Two big birds landed in a hidden place in Niugang Mountain.

Little Daoist Liu put the black-feathered flying eagle into the body bag.

Hou Dongsheng poured out the water in the copper basin and put the copper basin into the storage bag.

He looked up and looked around.

Saw a large nest hanging in a tree.

Hou Dongsheng: "Your patriarch hall is on the top of the tree?"

Xiong Wang: "That's the nest of the Iron Feather Bustard, our Patriarch Hall is down here."

Got it... This is the tarmac above, and the secret base below.

Xiong Wang and Mulan led the way, while Hou Dongsheng, Liu Hang, and Suzaku followed.

They stepped on the branches and walked through the canopy.

The Bear King suddenly jumped and jumped into a tree hole.

"Come in." Bear King beckoned.

The rest of the people filed in.

Passing through the tree hole, you come to a dark mountain stream.

The water gurgles in my ears.

The surrounding cliffs are covered with moss.

There are stone steps dug at the foot.

The canyon is deep, covered by the shade of trees overhead, although there is no formation to cover it, it is also extremely concealed.

"Big brother!" A thin young man who was playing with bamboo worms saw the bear king and immediately hid the bamboo worms behind his back and clasped his fists at the bear king.

Xiong Wang: "Xiao Qi! Why are you alone and the others?"

Xiaoqi: "Senior Sister Yulan took everyone to the field to harvest rice, and will be back in a while."

Xiong Wang: "Oh... let me introduce you, these two Taoist friends Liu Heng and Suzaku should know each other. This is Hou Daoyou, their senior brother. When Yulan comes back, you ask her to kill two chickens at night, and we all eat together at night a meal."

Xiaoqi: "Okay senior brother."

The crowd followed Xiong Wang and broke into a house.

The environment of the house is quiet, and the roof of the building is also covered with trees. If you want to fly to it from the air, you have to pass through the shade of trees.

Hou Dongsheng: "This place is really a paradise."

Xiong Wang: "Everything here is good, but the aura is a bit weak."

Lingmai! ?
Hou Dongsheng doesn't have spiritual roots, he can't feel spiritual energy at all.

Bear King: "This way please..."

Hou Dongsheng stepped on the bamboo board, and the bamboo board was placed on the pool.

Bear King: "The humble house is simple."

Hou Dongsheng: "Very good..."

"This is the Patriarch Hall."

Everyone entered a small main room together, and it still seemed a bit crowded when four or five people stood together.

There is a portrait hanging on the wall of the house, and above the portrait is a pretty fairy with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

With her ponytail tied up, she stood on the cliff and made a gesture of protecting her heart.

Her smiling face and the rising sun behind her seemed to blend into one.

The person who did the painting was Lu Hongjin.

It really is you...

Hou Dongsheng didn't seem very surprised to see the portrait of the Taoist couple long ago.

Liu Hang: Shocked!
Suzaku: Shocked +1.

Yue Ningshuang and Xuanyue Ningshuang were actually the same person.

Sister-in-law is the founding patriarch of Xuanyang Sect.

I saw Xiong Wang shouting loudly: "Bless Yue Patriarch!"

The little girl Mulan handed over three sticks of incense.

After a moment of hesitation, Hou Dongsheng reached out to pick up the incense.

"Eldest brother, if you're not suitable, let me do it." Liu Heng took the incense candle and offered incense to his sister-in-law respectfully.

Suzaku: "I also want to offer incense to the Patriarch."

After Liu Heng burned the incense, he turned to Xiong Wang with a smile and said, "Can you add another portrait here."

"You think so too!?" Xiong Wang revealed surprise.

Liu Hang: Stupid! ?
Xiong Wang: "I want to put the portrait of my master Lu Hongjin here. He should be enshrined with the ancestor Yue."

"Not right, not right..." Liu Heng shook his head like a rattle.

Xiong Wang: "Ah... why is it wrong?"

Liu Heng: "How can the portraits of master and apprentice be hung side by side? This is unreasonable."

Xiong Wang: "The portrait of the master is hung in the front, and the portrait of the apprentice is hung in the back. Why not?"

Liu Hang: "It's not right... Your master has passed away, so it's more appropriate to hang his portrait in the mourning hall. Those who cultivate immortality have a long life, and Yue Zushi is a Jindan real person, so he must still be in the human affairs. Hang the portraits of the two in the mourning hall." It is inappropriate to be together."

Bear King: "You are right."

Hou Dongsheng: "Liu Heng, Suzaku...you come out with me and I have something to explain."

Liu Hang and Suzaku saluted Xiong Wang and left the Patriarch Hall quickly.

Hou Dongsheng: "You must keep the matter of sister-in-law a secret!"

Liu Hang, Suzaku: "Brother, please rest assured!"

Hou Dongsheng: "Since the Xuanyang Sect is not an outsider, you two should stay here and be the guardian elders."

"Suzaku... your skills are special, you have to find a place to practice alone, and remember not to kill mortals indiscriminately!"

Suzaku: "Brother, don't worry."

Hou Dongsheng: "If you need anything, just come to Tianqingmen to find me."

Liu Heng: "Junior brother understands."

Then Hou Dongsheng turned into a ray of light and left.

Xiong Wang: "Senior Hou left? Has he not eaten yet?"

Liu Heng: "Foundation builders can already fast without food."

Suzaku: "Eldest brother has allowed us to join the Xuanyang Sect."

Xiong Wang rubbed his hands with excitement: "Really!? This is really great."

……

The next day.

Yunlan Mountain.

Azure Gate.

inner door.

mission hall.

This mission hall was built quite majesticly, and one had to climb more than a dozen steps to enter the hall. On the contrary, the sect's meeting hall where the head of the sect was located seemed quite low-key.

Numerous inner disciples came in and out...

Some were dressed in green clothes, some in yellow robes, and some in black and white law enforcement hall robes.

Hou Dongsheng was about to enter the lobby with the flow of people, when he saw a ray of light from the foundation building period flying into the second floor.

Divine consciousness swept over.

The first floor of the mission hall is full of qi refining disciples, and the second floor has foundation building monks, and there are no stairs from the first floor to the second floor.

The lobby on the first floor is the task of the refining period, and the lobby on the second floor is the task of the foundation building period.

Hou Dongsheng stepped on the void and came to the balcony on the second floor.

There are two female disciples on the terrace, one on the left and one on the right.

The female disciple stepped forward and saluted: "Senior, you are very nervous, but this is your first visit to the task hall?"

Hou Dongsheng nodded.

"Senior, please follow me." The female disciple led Hou Dongsheng into the lobby on the second floor.

Female disciple: "Each wooden sign on the wall is a task. The task issuer is marked on the lower right of the wooden sign, and the dots on the lower left represent the difficulty of the task..."

"One dot is the early stage of foundation establishment, two dots are the middle stage of foundation establishment, and three dots are the late stage of foundation establishment. Naturally, the rewards are divided into three levels. Task rewards include spirit stones, pills, and gold and silver beans. You need to ask for details. Tell me about Master Lu who is in charge of the registration."

Soon Hou Dongsheng stopped and reached out to take down a task wooden sign.

Wooden plaque Zhongshu: Arrest Huang Yujun from the Foreign Affairs Hall.

Task Difficulty: 1 dot.

Task issuer: Law Enforcement Hall.

Female disciple: "The reward for this task is a golden bean."

Hou Dongsheng: "Are you clear?"

"There are many seniors who took on this task." After the female disciple finished speaking, she took out an identical wooden sign from the storage bag and hung it where it was just now.

"Senior, if you come here to register with Master Lu, you will receive the task." The female disciple pointed to an old man sitting in the hall.

Hou Dongsheng: "No hurry... I'll see if there are any other tasks."

After a moment.

Hou Dongsheng took down another task wooden sign.

Task Name: Catch the Griffon.

Task Difficulty: 2 dot.

Task issuer: Law Enforcement Hall.

Female disciple: "Senior, did you really accept this task?"

Hou Dongsheng: "How to say?"

Female disciple: "Many people suspect that Huang Yujun is the Eagle-beaked Demon, including Law Enforcement Hall!"
