Old Fogey Goes Down The Mountain

Chapter 88: Perfect ending

Views:

The Daoists of the Xinnan Taoist Association were like a dream, Zhang Pang was even more ignorant than them, and only Wei Xi nodded.

No wonder Hei Wuchang didn't see the meeting for so long after he set off. It turned out that he rushed to the New South City God Division to do anti-corruption work.

The big leader in the Fengdu office personally went out to fight corruption. It is not necessary to go into details about how frantic the New South City God Division has been. Just look at the speed with which the group of messengers who hurriedly came to the scene put out the paper money and incense. The underworld messengers watched the burning paper money being extinguished, and they felt very sorry for Zhang Pang at the same time—

Last night, Black Impermanence landed in the local City God Division without warning, so shocked that the local City God didn't even have time to count the incense of the believers, and hurriedly summoned his confidants to carry out the reception work. As a result, as soon as I met the big leader, before I could even mention the reception meal, I was scolded in the face. After the big leader finished scolding the city god, he also recruited the land divisions of the new southern districts and reprimanded them one by one. At that time, the whole city god Si's messenger was so scared that he shivered, and when he asked later, he realized that it was his own messenger who got extra money and got the head of the brothers' unit in Beijing! He happened to be bumped face-to-face by the big leader who had just arrived in the capital from Fengdu.

Losing face and throwing out the province, can this be endured

The Chenghuang and the land people were angry at the big leader, so it goes without saying that they must vent on their subordinates. Those who were reprimanded in the second half of the night were these scumbags, who were scolded like grandchildren one by one. If something like this happened, they definitely don't have to think about the New South City God's year-end evaluation in Fengdu. If the evaluation is not good, the salary and benefits will be affected, and more importantly, if such a shameful thing spreads, the Chenghuang Division from other places may not know how to joke after knowing it.

The entire Xinnan, from Chenghuang to Mingchai, felt ashamed.

The cause of the incident is not difficult to find out. The ghost who was brought back by the big leader was smashed to the end, and the whole ghost collapsed after the system that was finally admitted to the test was cancelled. It was done by the priest! Chenghuang followed a check and almost died of anger. The salary of the Chenghuang Division is not high. Occasionally receiving some extra money is originally a small welfare that everyone tacitly agrees to. The next step is to generate income, and Chenghuang does it himself. Gray income! What does grey income mean? It means you have to keep a low profile! The seminary teaching is very good, and it is well known that he has made some contacts. Even the Taoist priests in the world know that he is related to the Chenghuang Company. How can the credibility of the Chenghuang Company be maintained in the industry? !

It has developed to this level, and it will definitely not work if it is not investigated. The task force was formed very quickly, which led to the entire New South City God's Division entering a period of severe crackdown overnight. Not only the underworld who was caught, but also other colleagues were also cut off. With a fortune, who can't be angry

The underworld guards were angry, and they did things extremely well. They all showed their unselfishness to Zhang Pang, and even took out the law enforcement record book, and they were going to give all the other bad guys who were complicit with him in one breath. Get it out!

The Taoist priests standing in the distance seemed to fall into a dreamland, watching the scene of Zhang Pang being interrogated and his accomplices in a trance.

That messenger interrogated Zhang Pang and peeked at Wei Xi, this is the director Wei who stabbed the sky out of the basket...

Zhang Pang fell into an unprecedented predicament. Even the betrayal of the Yin soldier did not give him such despair. The little apprentice on the side asked him in a panic: "Master... Master, what should we do now? Yin and Yang two worlds. Joint law enforcement, we have encountered a severe crackdown!"

Zhang Pang turned his gaze to him, and the sullen gaze made the little fat man stand up all over his body: "Master, Master?"

Zhang Pang suddenly smiled and looked at him with a soft expression: "Meng Xiaoming, Master has raised you for so many years, and among so many brothers and sisters in the sect, he has always been the best to you, right?"

This is absolutely true, the little fat man nodded with confidence.

Zhang Pang asked with satisfaction, "Then are you willing to work hard for Master today?"

The extinguished incense in front of the incense gave off the last strong smoke, and the nearby ghosts were selfless and secretly took two more puffs. No."

Zhang Pang: "..."

*****

Zhang Pang's smile faded a little, and the Taoist priests in front could see some clues. After returning to their senses, they couldn't believe that he still refused to accept his fate: "Zhang Pang, you have nowhere to go!"

After all, it is the object of cooperation before, although it is now breaking up, the law enforcement officers are also a little unbearable: "I heard that you have organized a cult, and it has done a lot of harm to people. Is there a king in the world, and we are now staring at it. You have to cooperate with the arrest operation, if you can’t escape, it’s better to accept the trial of the government of the world.”

Zhang Pang sneered: "Is there a king in the world? What are you kidding? It's fine if you manage one-third of this acre of land, can you manage to go to the United States?"

Mistakes: "..."

Daoists: "..."

It was the first time that Wei Xi accepted this kind of national topic, and he was a little dazed: "Isn't the United States under the control of our yamen?"

The Taoist priests who heard this actually thought about it subconsciously, and after a long time came to the conclusion: "Religions are indeed different, more of them believe in God..."

Unity was shocked: "The country has been engaged in globalization and overseas aid for so many years, and now there are embassies. Have we never established diplomatic relations with them?"

Ming Chai held the chain and said: "... It seems that no leader has mentioned it before."

Zhang Pang took two steps back when he heard the words, staring coldly at the group of stunned opponents in front of him, his voice became pleasant: "I can't think of it? Knowing that you are coming, I left a way for myself early, transferred overseas assets, and contacted me. The lawyer applied for political asylum. Now that I have all the passports and visas in hand, I don’t believe that you poor Taoists have the power to restrict me from leaving the country.”

The poor Taoist priests present said that they did not expect that monks live a poor life, and few can travel. Who would have thought that cultists are now so rich, saying that if they immigrated to the United States, they would immigrate to the United States and have overseas assets.

Wei Xi couldn't help but show envy on his face. This colleague obviously seemed to get along better than the Taoist priests around him. It was his goal.

But in this situation, the Taoist priests still had to fight, and confronted Zhang Pang: "You can't run away."

Zhang Pang is extremely calm, as expected of a MLM background, and still in danger in such an embarrassed situation: "How do you know if I can escape or not?"

After speaking, he leaned over and grabbed the arm of the little fat man who had already started to shiver, and said in a pleasant manner, "Xiao Ming, I'm afraid you don't want to this time, but you have to."

The little fat man stared at him blankly, with tears in his eyes, and said cautiously, "Master, you, don't scare me..."

There was a smile on Zhang Pang's face, but his eyes were extremely cold. Then he didn't know where the strength came from. He even lifted the fat man up, and then before everyone had time to react, he was picked up. Push hard in the direction of the crowd.

The Taoist priests are still quite confused, what use can this little fat man crying and chirping be used for? I saw Zhang Huan shouting: "Lu Qing! Come here!"

The tall and thin man who was still sad in the crowd glanced at him, stunned for a while, as if he knew what he was going to do. He looked at the little fat man who staggered and called himself "Senior Brother" and "Senior Brother", with a hesitant expression on his face.

Seeing this, Zhang Pang frowned: "Lu Qing!"

The tall and thin man gritted his teeth, and finally got up. At this moment, no one from Taicang Sect was near him. He escaped from the arrest of several priests beside him like a catfish, and then ran towards Zhang Pang. past. The crowd followed closely behind him.

Zhang Pang moved extremely fast. He quickly pulled out a knife and cut a slash on his arm. Then he grabbed the tall and thin hand and cut his middle finger.

At this time, the Taoist priests had already rushed to his side and pushed him to the ground with all his hands and feet. His blood was scattered all over the ground. Wei Xi wanted to follow him, but suddenly there was a heavy weight on his shoulder. He almost lifted his feet off the ground.

After he stood still, he looked up and saw the second apprentice staring at him solemnly: "Don't go there!"

Wei Xi was stunned for a while, his eyes turned to the crowd, and he suddenly realized something.

Zhang Pang's blood was sprinkled on the ground behind the incense table he was standing on, and there was actually an engraving there! The blood quickly spread into several strands, and the shape made him suddenly dazed, and then an indescribable restlessness surged in his heart.

It seemed that the bloody aroma rushed to the tip of his nose in an instant, causing his endless appetite and the faint killing intent in his heart to start an unspeakable commotion. There were so many lively humans at the scene... He opened his mouth unconsciously, paying attention to the side. To his changed unity, he exclaimed: "Master, why are your eyes red?!"

But the voice also became distant, making Wei Xi almost indistinguishable.

Fortunately, at this moment, a warm warmth covered his face, covering his wide eyes.

The second apprentice's arms were also trembling slightly, as if he was holding back something. The veins on his arms burst out, but the smell of his palms and his calm voice were the same as before: "Close your eyes and don't look."

The voice entered his ears, and in the darkness, Wei Xi raised his hand to hold his apprentice's thin and strong wrist, and touched several clear scars on his fingertips. After losing sight, the boiling killing intent in his body gradually calmed down, but at this time, he heard the sudden screams of the Taoist priests in the distance, and then came the sharp cry of the little fat man—

"Master! I hurt! I hurt!!"

His mind instantly became clear, and he turned to look at the source of the sound. The little fat man who had been thrown away still ran back to Zhang Pang's side, but at this moment, he seemed to be suffering inhuman pain, grabbing the clothes on his chest all over the floor. roll.

His voice was screaming and screaming, but it suddenly changed, becoming short and sharp, like the scream of a beast.

In the next instant, there was a loud bang, and the incense case that Zhang Pang had placed just now was swept out. The smoke and dust filled the air, and the place where everyone's eyes could see, instead of the little fat man who was rolling all over the floor, suddenly became another behemoth.

This behemoth was covered in Zhang Pang's blood, and was struggling and crawling frantically. It was against the back of the tortoise. The limbs and head of the old man stretched out from the back of the tortoise. Long and meandering like a snake.

It was so big that it was startling, the screams were deafening, and the sweeping head and tail were even more unstoppable. When the tail was thrown away, the big tree with a thick bowl folded without any resistance. became two halves. However, compared with its powerful destructive power, its existence is even more incredible. The Taoist priests at the scene have recognized its identity from its iconic appearance, and can't help but shouted in amazement: "Xuanwu?!"

The layman, Tuanjieyi, couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded: "Xuanwu? Qinglong Zhuque that Xuanwu? Isn't this a divine beast enshrined by Taoists?! Wait, aren't divine beasts a legend? Are they really there?"

Wei Xi couldn't see Zhang Pang's blood, and his mind was already clear. At this time, he was just looking at the chaos in front of him with confusion. He had never been very clear about these things, but the second apprentice behind him seemed to know something. Not so good: "They've always been around, they just disappeared more than a hundred years ago."

One hundred years? Weixi was unexpectedly sensitive to this number, and Tuanjie was also curious: "More than a hundred years ago? Why did it disappear more than a hundred years ago?"

Wei Xi looked back at the second apprentice, and the second apprentice was also looking at him, his eyes were calm and deep: "Do you want to know?"

Wei Xi nodded, but the second apprentice didn't seem to want to answer, he just straightened the hair on his forehead as before, and said thoughtfully, "I thought these spirit beasts should have died out long ago, but I didn't expect them to come back. If you leave one, I’m afraid it will be the Great Wilderness Seal Array on Yucheng Mountain.”

For more than 100 years, the simplified seal formation was obviously placed in a hurry. Rather than a seal, its function was more like protection. In addition to the wind and rain, and the unstable foundation, it has little effect today.

But this kind of avoidance made it survive and at the same time lost the inheritance memory that it should have, no wonder it was accepted by a half-hearted person like Zhang Pang.

He can almost see the past scene from this. At the moment before the collapse of the Heavenly Dao, countless believers transported a dying Xuanwu here, and then hurriedly covered up its traces from the Heavenly Dao.

Xuanwu is like this, but what about Weixi

Zhang Pang lost so much blood, but he didn't feel any pain at all. Instead, he was very satisfied with the chaos at the scene. He didn't even look at the big snake tortoise who was struggling in his summoning formation, but quickly wrapped himself up and got up to escape. Seeing the tall and thin apprentice froze in place, he shouted in dissatisfaction, "Lu Qing!"

The tall and thin man regained his senses and was silent for a moment, then followed him while clutching his aching hand.

Seeing that he was about to run, the priests present panicked: "Stop!"

However, the scene was chaotic. The crazy Xuanwu who appeared out of nowhere had disrupted everyone's plans, and no one could go past it and hold Zhang Pang down. Zhang Pang obviously knew his own advantages, and before leaving, he did not forget to show a smile on his pale face: "When you can control it, come find me again."

The battle situation at the scene was immediately reversed, and the Taoist priests showed despair - not to mention that this was a divine beast enshrined in their own system. Weapons with huge lethality, what spells can they have to deal with? !

Zhang Pang saw that they were embarrassed, and the smile on his face became wider. At this time, a faint sound of wind suddenly came from the sharp howl in his ears.

Puff puff.

It was the muffled sound of something submerging into the body. After a few times, Xuanwu's heart-piercing screams began to become lower and lower, and the frequency of sweeping his tail became sluggish and slow.

Both sides of the war were stunned. Everyone including Zhang Pang realized that something was wrong, and slowly, slowly, turned their attention to the direction of Taicang Sect.

Wei Xi lowered his head and asked, "What are you doing?"

Dog Dan, who was squatting at his feet, held a strange small tube and a needle-like thing in his hand. He raised his head and said: "... Boss, I got this from the dog thief that day. Stealing dog narcotics, I want to try and see if it doesn't work."

As he said that, he installed another anesthesia needle into the long barrel, raised it in front of him, and pressed the trigger.

The needle was pulled out of the long barrel by him, and it went straight into Xuanwu's tail because it was too long. Everyone looked closely, only to find that a dense row of anesthesia needles had been inserted into the tail.

Everyone: "… "

This dose was enough to kill a herd of elephants. After all, Xuanwu, who was in a frenzy, couldn't hold it any longer. He was defeated by the last injection. He closed his eyes, and his limbs, head, and tail slumped unconsciously.

The place was quiet.

Goudan: "It really works! No wonder the brothers who were targeted couldn't escape one by one. The dog thief was really condemned!"

Everyone: "..."

Zhang Pang, who was about to run away: "..."

******

The Taoist priests felt very confused, yes, why were all the Taoist methods in their minds just now, it is already the age of technology, and anesthesia is much better than the thunder talisman.

Everyone quickly reacted and pressed Zhang Pang, who had fallen into new self-doubt, to the ground. Zhang Pang really had no way out now, and shouted in disbelief: "How is it possible! How is it possible!!"

This Xuanwu was discovered by him in the mountains by accident. With auspiciousness on his body, his fortune was prosperous one day. After he was admitted to the division, it was his secret fighting strength card. How could it be so easy? Get knocked down? !

The fact that the Taoist mythical beast was smashed by the dog thief's anesthesia gun didn't make the Taoist priests feel much better, but in the face of Zhang Pang, everyone quickly accepted this reality. There was an injured young Taoist at the scene whose morale was so bad, he punched and kicked him, insulting him while beating: "You are from a pyramid scheme, I didn't expect you to be so brainless, and you can immigrate to the United States. The truth is that technology changes the world. Haven't you figured it out yet!"

Zhang Pang: "..."

Wei Xi seemed to understand after hearing these words, raised his hand and patted his head and looked up at his dog with watery eyes: "Good job."

I didn't expect technology to be so useful. It seems that some changes should take place in the future of the sect.

As he said that, he looked at the huge Xuanwu with some greedy eyes, and moved two steps closer.

His arm was suddenly pulled, and he looked back. The second apprentice hadn't said anything since Goudan held the anesthesia gun. At this moment, his expression changed rapidly. On his body, there seemed to be blood vessels beating in his forehead.

After a long while, he made a voice: "...This can't be eaten, it has anesthesia."

****

Wei Xi still took a bite while he was not paying attention. Who knew that he bit the tip of his tail and his tongue began to tingle. He suddenly realized that the apprentice had said it well, and no matter how greedy he was, he had to give up.

Probably due to the loss of his mind, the image of this huge snake tortoise slowly became hazy after a while, and finally changed back to the original human form, and collapsed in the blood stains that had been messed up by his struggles.

The scene was so chaotic that no one noticed that Wei Xi was stealing the food. Wei Xi pooh pooh pooh a few times and let his blood go numb. When he approached the chaotic fellow Daoists, he realized that everyone had passed away from Zhang Pang, who was in a trance. The magic weapon of Xu Xiaofeng's soul was found on his body.

He then remembered: "Yes, we are here to rescue Fellow Daoist Xu!"

Kuang Zhiming: "..."

Other Taoist priests also said: "..."

Yes, they are obviously here to rescue Xu Xiaofeng, why do they have to witness so many miraculous history along the way...

Everyone looked back and saw that the little fat man's clothes had been torn. At this moment, Bai Huahua was lying on the ground and fainted. It was probably a little cold. Needle.

As soon as they thought of his body and the reason for his defeat, the Daoists collapsed a little, and could only force themselves to turn their eyes away: "Fellow Daoist, let's see how your wife is doing first."

Kuang Zhiming hurriedly nodded and began to summon Xu Xiaofeng's soul.

Everyone was a little anxious: "The soul has been separated from the body for too long and has been imprisoned in the magic weapon. I am afraid that it is now in a daze. Master Kuang, think of a way to wake her up!"

Seeing this, Kuang Zhiming gritted his teeth, stood up solemnly, stretched out his hand and began to dig towards him.

The attitude of everyone also became cautious, thinking that he was going to dig out some magic weapon, and even retreated a little to avoid being affected.

Who knew that Kuang Zhiming pulled his hand out of his pocket and held a mobile phone between his fingers!

"Xiaofeng!" He searched out a page, held it up in front of his wife, and shouted, "Look at what this is!"

Some people looked at it, and it was actually a promotional text message from a certain brand: In order to welcome the Spring Festival, the whole winter clothing including new models will be 20% off.

The surrounding Taoists: "..."

******

When everyone went down the mountain, they received a call from the capital. The hospital said that Xu Xiaofeng, who was in a coma, had woken up. Kuang Zhiming burst into tears and signaled that he wanted to talk to his wife.

Xu Xiaofeng's voice was weak, with a little anxiety: "... Zhiming, my XX brand coat... It's really only 1,000, and I bought it at a discount... "

Daoists: "..."

It seems that her body was still conscious when her soul left the body, and I heard everyone talking about her spending power that night. What does Kuang Zhiming think about at this moment? What else can he ask for when his wife wakes up

The couple hugged each other over the phone and cried. When they came out, the local police in Xinnan had already arrived. They were evacuating tourists who had gathered on the mountain road to watch the excitement. Even the media who had quick news came over.

The tourists were agitated when they saw a group of Taoist priests coming out, and there were many discussions in their mouths—

"Did they make such a big movement in the mountains just now?"

"Isn't it poaching wild animals?"

The media also looked at this group of Taoist priests who seemed to have experienced a fierce fight, and there were bloodstains on many of their clothes. They were more suspicious of whether there was a shootout in Yucheng Mountain just now.

The police also stepped forward and asked, "Daoist priests, the howl that came from deep in the mountains just now is..."

Everyone was silent for a moment when they heard the words, and their eyes involuntarily fell on the little fat man who was already wearing clothes on the back of a certain Taoist priest: "...Nothing, something happened when we arrested the leader of the cult."

He caught the divine beast of his own Taoist sect.

The Taoist priest who was carrying the little fat man was extremely excited at this time. Although the process was a little embarrassing, how could he be able to walk with his own divine beast in his lifetime!

In the end, before he was happy for a few minutes, he heard the policeman staring at the divine beast on his back with glowing eyes: "Isn't this one of the members of the Seminary cult?! Master, hand him over to us, and we'll bring him here. Interrogation in the bureau will definitely be severely punished in accordance with the law!"

The strength of the anesthesia passed, and the little fat man was already a little awake at this time. Hearing this, he shed tears in a daze. He didn't know if he remembered what happened just now. In short, he returned to his previous state of being harmless to humans and animals: "I... I plead guilty. …”

Daoists: "..."

The Taoist priests watched helplessly as their own divine beast was carried away on a stretcher by the police, and they didn't know how to react. After a while, the Taoist priest said with tears: "The cult harms people!"

A Xuanwu is so good, and he was caught and sent to prison like this! Since then, the resume is not clear, and no criminal certificate can be issued.

Zhang Pang's master and apprentice became more and more hostile, Zhang Pang looked like he didn't care, and sneered with a pale face until the little fat man on the stretcher turned to look at him.

The little fat man burst into tears and watched him open his mouth. After a while, he let out an almost inaudible choking sound: "...Master, I'm so hurt..."

Zhang Pang's face changed, his expression gloomy, his eyes met, and after a few seconds, he turned his eyes away as if he had been burned.

The tall and thin man lowered his head silently, never looking at his master, only hurriedly glanced at his junior brother at the end of the little fat man being carried away on a stretcher, as if he wanted to open his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.

These two people are finished. The police sorted out the criminal evidence found by the Taoist priests from the mansion in the mountains. The number is bigger than we thought, enough for him to drink a pot."

As for tall and thin people, participation in a cult organization and the crime of intentional injury cannot escape the law.

The Daoists present did not expect that their actions to rescue the souls of Daoist friends would be so successful in the end. Not only did they achieve their goals, but they also destroyed the long-established cult in Xinnan, and finally sent their own divine beasts in together. .

Everyone was a little overwhelmed by the gratified eyes of the police, but the Taicang Sect's unity and righteousness stood up with a smile, facing the police and media cameras: "It is our citizens' duty to combat bad behavior, and we Taicang Sect. And the Taoist priests of the Taoist temples have always resolutely implemented the policy of governing the country according to the law, it is just a trivial matter, and it is not worth mentioning."

The policeman was very surprised: "I didn't expect religious people to have such a consciousness now!"

The Taoist priests first felt that the dialogue was a bit overwhelming, but then they thought about it, and they really couldn't make sense.

The Taoist priests of Xinnan were really convinced now, and said with a wonderful expression: "… fellow Taoists of the Beijing Taoist Association, you are indeed very politically conscious in your work. We, the New South Taoist Association, will learn more from you in the future. "

The Taoist priests from the capital were silent for a while, and just as they were about to explain, they heard the Taoist priests from Xinnan speak again: "After this incident, our Xinnan Taoist Association was deeply touched. , I plan to hold a seminar, I wonder if all Daoists are interested in participating?"

The Taoist priests in the capital were stunned: "What seminar?"

Director Xinnan: "It is a topic about the integration of Chinese and Western Taoist culture and modern technology. It has not yet been concretely formed, but we plan to propose that anesthesia needles be added to the ranks of daily instruments in the future."

The chief of the capital city: "..."

Xinnan Daoist: "Daoists from the capital are so advanced in concept and at the forefront of legal innovation. As a pioneer of the combination of Chinese and Western, you will definitely vote for it, right?"

Daoists in the capital: "..."

"But it's a top priority." The Xinnan Daoists couldn't help but feel sad again when they said this, and sobbed heavily, "Daomen mythical beasts appear in the world, I think we should organize Daoist friends from various Taoist temples, go... Go to the detention center , visit Xuanwu."

Wei Xi closed his clothes in silence and peeking, hiding his merits and fame.

The author has something to say: Daoists from all over the world received a call: "? You repeat where is Xuanwu?"
