Ordinary people in the world of Uncle Nine

Chapter 377 Chapter 369

...

"Master, why does it feel like Senior Brother Gao Yang is afraid of you?"

Gao Yang's stealthy departure was accidentally seen by Xiaotong, and he asked Zhang Chengji in confusion.

"Ahem, how could it be fear! That's the respect that Senior Brother Gao Yang has for being a teacher. After you practice in Longhu Mountain, you will understand the status of being a teacher here!"

Some children reminded Zhang Jicheng that Gao Yang had run away at some point, and when he heard the children's question, he defended himself seriously.

After hearing what he said, Xiaotong gave him a half-believing glance, and believed it tentatively, but what she saw and heard on the road made her suspicious of Zhang Chengli's words again.

Just because they were on the way, some elderly Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain saw their figures from a distance and hid in a panic, while those young Taoist priests looked at them from a distance with curious and timid eyes. Looking at them made the little boy feel weird.

"Brother, do you feel that they look at us strangely?"

The little boy quietly approached Ah Xing and asked in a low voice, Ah Xing looked around after hearing the words, and nodded with emotion.

"Indeed, since we entered the back mountain, many people have been secretly looking at us."

"Could it be that Master offended someone in Longhu Mountain?"

"Shhh, don't be so loud, be careful Master heard..."

Zhang Jicheng walked in front, his ears trembling slightly, and his face was depressed. He naturally heard the conversation between A Xing and Xiao Tong, but he could only pretend that he didn't hear it at this time, otherwise how could he explain it to the two apprentices? This situation?
Is it possible to tell them that when your master was young, he used his status as an elder to play tricks on the younger generation?Then do you want to have the face of his master?

Fortunately, they didn't go far and saw a row of houses. Li Mu saw that Zhang Chengji was obviously relieved, so he turned his head and pointed to one of the houses and said to them.

"That's my residence in Longhu Mountain. You go and put down your things first, and rest for a while. I'll go to see your master first."

After Zhang Chengji finished speaking, he turned and left, leaving Li Mu Xiaobao and A Xing Xiaotong staring at each other.

"Come on, let's clean up the house first."

I heard Daoist Gao Yang say that Zhang Chengji hadn’t come back for almost 40 to [-] years, and he didn’t know if anyone cleaned the house, so Li Mu suggested that everyone should clean the house first.

The door of the house is not locked, but there should be no need to lock it in Longhu Mountain. Several people opened the door and entered the house and found that the house was unexpectedly clean. It seemed that someone had cleaned it irregularly.

So the few people had nothing to do after tidying up a bit, and they didn't dare to walk around in Longhu Mountain without Zhang Chengji leading the way, so they could only sit at the door and wait for Zhang Chenggong to come back.

On the other side, Zhang Chengji, who left the house, came to a large hall in the back mountain. The plaque on it was inscribed with three big characters "Tianshi Mansion".

"Disciple Zhang Yuncheng pays homage to Master!"

Zhang Chengli stood in front of the gate of the Tianshi Mansion and bowed inward, with a loud and respectful voice, but after Zhang Chengji saluted, he kept his movements and waited for the old Tianshi in the hall to reply, and soon there was a loving but majestic voice in the hall sound.

"It's good to be back, come in."

The Tianshi Mansion is the place where the celestial masters of all dynasties live. On weekdays, there are Taoist boys who take care of the old celestial master’s daily life, but today Zhang Chengji walked all the way and did not see them. If you want to come over, they have been screened back.

The front hall of the Tianshi Mansion is the place where the old celestial masters worship the gods. In addition to the statues of Sanqing, there are Zhang Daoling, the founder of Longhu Mountain, Ge Xuan, the Maoshan Zongtan, Xu Xun and Sa Shoujian.

In addition, there are the gods and portraits of the celestial masters of the past dynasties.

Zhang Chengji went to the back of the hall after offering incense and worshiping in the hall. He saw a long aisle similar to a garden in the courtyard.

Zhang Jicheng walked towards the old master's residence at a fast and unhurried pace, and soon saw a figure in a pale white robe standing in the courtyard covered with eight diagrams of Yin and Yang.

"Unfilial disciples pay homage to Master!"

Looking at the figure in front of him, Zhang Chengji's eyes immediately turned red, and he fell to his knees with a puff. For the first time in 40 years, he was old, and his master was even older.

"Just come back, get up, and tell me where you have been all these years."

The old Tianshi turned around slowly, and looked at Zhang Jicheng who was kneeling on the ground with a loving face. The 160-year-old old Tianshi looked like a child with white hair and a full complexion. It was impossible to tell that he was 160 years old. advanced age.

Seeing that his feet moved, he came to Zhang Chengji, and stretched out his hand to help Zhang Chengji who was kneeling on the ground.

"Yun Cheng, you are getting old..."

Looking at the white hair on the young apprentice's head and the wrinkles on his face, the old Tianshi couldn't help sighing, Zhang Jizheng was taken back to the mountain gate to take care of him when he was still a baby, and in the blink of an eye he became the old man he is now. People like Master, who are used to the detachment of life and death, can't help being moved.

The two masters and apprentices were talking in this yard. Zhang Jicheng told the old Tianshi what he had encountered in the places he had been to these years, just like a child showing his own experience to his parents, and the old Tianshi smiled. Watching him quietly listening, asking a question or showing surprise from time to time, just like teasing his own children.

"Master, brother, he..."

Speaking of Zhang Jicheng, he suddenly remembered something, and then looked at the old Tianshi sadly. The old Tianshi had nine apprentices under his knees, and his eldest disciple Zhang Yunyi was his blood. When he entered the mage realm, he already had the cultivation base of the peak mage. At that time, everyone in Longhu Mountain thought that he would become the second celestial master of Longhu Mountain.

However, after Zhang Chengji left the mountain to travel, the senior brother heard that there was a demon cave in the north that harmed the common people, so he brought some of his disciples to get rid of the demons. None survived.

At that time, there was a great shock in the Tianshi Mansion. The old Tianshi personally went to flatten the demon cave to avenge his son, but it was of no avail. Zhang Yunyi died in the demon cave and could not even find his soul.

However, Zhang Jicheng left Longhu Mountain to travel and live without a fixed place because of the blow of the hopeless celestial master, and the old celestial master ordered him not to tell him, so he didn't know the news until not long ago, so he brought Ah Xing and the others back. Recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestors.

On the way back to Longhu Mountain, although Zhang Chengji pretended to be nonchalant in front of Ah Xing and the others, no one knew the torment in his heart, so after dealing with the curse master, in order to prevent another accident on the way, he even hired After getting out of the car and driving all night, the closer he got to Longhu Mountain, the stronger his feeling of being close to home and timidity in his heart.

"Time is fate, your elder brother's fate should be like this..."

　So embarrassing, embarrassing to me...
