Tales of the Supernatural

Chapter 51: [050] Conversation with Master Yin

Views:

I fell asleep in a daze, and this time it was the same as before. I was unconscious for a long time, and I didn't know how long I slept. I just felt pain in my bones. I thought it was because of the snake demon. I miscalculated. I sat up with difficulty and looked around. I was still in the same inn room as before. You know, I am very familiar with this place. After all, I lay here like a corpse for several days.

I saw a person sitting on a chair, wearing a Taoist robe. It was obviously the Taoist priest who saved me. I moved a little, but I felt powerless. At this time, the Taoist priest seemed to have opened his eyes because of my noise. He touched his beard and said with a smile: "Friend Wu, you'd better not move now, otherwise you will have sequelae in the future. It will be troublesome."

When I heard that moving again would leave sequelae, I immediately lay down again. After lying there for a few minutes, I felt really bored, so I said to the Taoist priest, "Master, what is your name?"

"My previous Taoist name was Xu Hai, but I have since left the Dragon Tiger Sect and become a solitary monk. My common name is Yin Zhipeng. You can just call me Taoist Yin." The voice of Taoist Yin came to my ears.

"Master Yin, you are so capable, why do you stay in this ghost market? It's such a waste of your talent. Why don't you come with me to start a ghost catching company and make a lot of money?" Although I was in pain all over, I still didn't forget to pull Master Yin along. We were going to set up a supernatural group, which would definitely be dangerous. With Master Yin along, I wouldn't be afraid of any ghosts in the future.

Although the young man in white who was killed was not particularly strong, Master Yin should have killed him instantly. In the end, Master Yin said such a domineering sentence to the people below, and no one dared to say a word in reply, which proved the deterrent power of Master Yin.

"Haha, money is something outside of one's body. You can't bring it with you when you are born and you can't take it with you when you die. As for my ability, it's not bad compared with you juniors. Speaking of which, I admire your master, Mr. Liu."

"My master? No way, are you kidding me? Although you seem to have quit the Dragon Tiger Sect, it seems that haven't you famous and upright sects always looked down on us Yin-Yang Master?" When I heard Taoist Master Yin mention my master, I was suddenly shocked. Moreover, these famous and upright sects have always looked down on Yin-Yang Master, so how can there be any admiration for him

"Forget about the other Yin-Yang masters, but there are things about your master that I admire. Since your master hasn't told you, I won't say much. When the time comes, your master will naturally tell you. I don't want to say a few more words and cause trouble for Mr. Liu in the future." I heard Taoist Yin's words again. I became even more confused. Could it be that my master is a very powerful person

But then I thought about it, my master is now sick and frail, there is no way he can get in touch with those peerless masters.

"Okay, little friend Wu, don't think about it anymore. Go back and ask your master when you have a chance. Why bother racking your brains now? You won't be able to figure it out in the end."

"Well, thank you Master Yin for your advice." I thanked him. These old guys must be polite when they should be polite. One of my principles of showing off is that I will never show off in front of people who are more awesome than me, because that will only make me look stupid.

Having said that, after listening to this old guy, it seems that his master has a lot of secrets. I really have to go back and ask him when I have time. There is also the matter of my parents, and a lot of questions.

I dozed off for more than an hour. Master Yin didn't say anything during that time, but I knew he was sitting on the chair. I could hear his breathing. I usually have a lot of respect for a powerful person like Master Yin.

Just when I was about to fall asleep again, the door suddenly opened and the person who came in was undoubtedly Taoist Qingfeng. As soon as he came in, he said anxiously, "Great-grandmaster, something bad has happened. I just went out to check and found that the snake demon we killed this time was related to Grandpa Changxian. The news has reached Grandpa Changxian's ears, and he is furious. He said he will send someone to investigate and kill all those who are related to him."

"Isn't it a poisonous snake this time? How can it be related to the python of Master Changxian?" I had already sat up by myself at this time, looking at Master Yin with a frown.

"It's easy to tell the relationship between pythons and poisonous snakes. I guess it's just that old man who messed around with them and created some other species. It's normal." I thought about it and said.

"Nonsense, can you just gossip about Master Changxian's private affairs?" Taoist Yin said angrily, then stroked his beard and continued: "Qingfeng, during this period of time, you will stay in Longhu Mountain for a while."

When I heard this, I immediately said, "In this case, I will also go to Longhu Mountain with you with reluctance."

Taoist Yin shook his head and said, "If you go up normally, you can stay as long as you want, but it's different now. You are the one that Master Changxian wants. Qingfeng is from Longhu Mountain, so Longhu Mountain will protect him. But you, Longhu Mountain will not let you go up."

I felt something was wrong when I heard it. You know, I know that Master Chang Xian, one of the top bosses in the Northeast. If he really wants to kill me, I guess I'm really dead this time.

"Master Yin, you can't just stand by and watch someone die." I said to Master Yin worriedly.

Taoist Master Yin looked at my worried expression and said, "Don't worry. It's hard to say for others, but you are fine. I remember that Master Changxian still owes your master a favor. If it really comes to a life-and-death moment, you can use this favor to save your life."

When I heard that Master Changxian still owed my master a favor, I immediately relaxed my slightly nervous mood and said, "Since he owes my master a favor, it's easy to deal with. Just go and make it clear. One younger generation will pay off one favor. I think Master Changxian should be very happy with this."

When Master Yin heard that I was going to use a favor to pay for this matter, he immediately said angrily: "Nonsense, for an existence of Master Changxian's level, do you think it's easy to earn a favor? You have to know that your master was... ahem." Suddenly Master Yin stopped talking, and then said: "Anyway, don't take this favor lightly. This is your master using it to save his life. If you can not use it, it's best not to use it."

He ignored me after that. My master used this to save his life? I was shocked. Could it be that my master had some other way to prolong his life? I couldn't help but feel happy when I thought of this. I was happy that my master seemed to have a way out and a way to prolong his life. But at this moment, I thought of the method I had just used to save my life. I slapped myself with my right hand.

Since this favor is so important, I would rather die than use it. The pain on my face is still there. The slap I gave just now also scared Taoist Yin and Taoist Qingfeng.

But they ignored me and started talking about their own things. It didn't matter to me. Taoist Qingfeng would be the one looking for it anyway. Taoist Qingfeng also said that they would only be able to stop at Longhu Mountain for a while and would continue to look for the Yin-Yang Record without any delay. I really admire Brother Qingfeng's treasure-hunting spirit.

My mind is very complicated now, and I don’t know what to do. However, Master Yin told me to just live my life as I did before. Master Changxian will not come here in person. I do understand this a little bit. The monsters in each area are different. If Master Changxian comes to Sichuan and Chongqing, he will be crossing the border, and the local monsters will unite to deal with him.

However, the monsters in Sichuan are not as powerful as those in Northeast China. I don’t know why, but Northeast China has the most and densest population of monsters. It seems that some agreement was signed a long time ago, which moved all the monsters to Northeast China. Therefore, there are more supernatural events there than other places.

Qingfeng and Taoist Yin talked about the Yin-Yang Record for a whole day. In fact, there was no difference between day and night in the Ghost Market. The sky was always gray. It should have been twelve hours before Brother Qingfeng took me to bid farewell to Taoist Yin and left the Ghost Market.

We were originally planning to have Taoist Master Yin go with us, but he said he had to stay behind to take care of some things, and it would be best if Master Changxian couldn't find us.

When I left, although the monsters on the street looked hostile to me, no one came up to attack me. I left the market and entered the thick fog again, walked out of the cave and arrived at the grove. These two days felt like a lifetime ago. As soon as I came out, my phone immediately received dozens of text messages, all from Glasses, Kaizi and others. They all asked me where I had been and asked me to call back if I was not dead. In fact, I was quite touched. This group of buddies are also one of my few friends, but they are worth making friends with sincerity.
