Chapter 55: Evil Ladder 02

Ma Shanfeng said to Chen Yang: "The Taoist Association is holding a meeting at Baiyun Temple. Both the headquarters and branches must send people to attend, and the heads of Taoist associations in other places will also participate in the video conference."

Chen Yang was puzzled: "What happened?"

Ma Shanfeng: "There is an evil ghost that escaped from hell and is now doing evil in the human world. He is extremely cunning and it took twenty years for him to escape from hell. Every time we catch him, we are always one step late. Even the ghost messengers in the underworld have become the target of the evil ghost's tricks. Fengdu decided to cooperate with the Taoist Association of the Human World, and the ghost messengers and the heavenly masters worked together to capture the evil ghost. This meeting is to discuss how to capture the evil ghost that escaped from hell."

Du Shuo had mentioned this evil ghost to Chen Yang. Because he had escaped from hell for 20 years before being discovered, Du Shuo was furious and implicated the ghost messenger in hell.

Mao Xiaoli was surprised: "Which evil ghost is so powerful? It actually requires the cooperation of Fengdu and the Taoist Association to capture it."

Ma Shanfeng: "That was a 700-year-old evil ghost that turned the entire city into zombies."

Zhang Qiudao heard this when he came back and asked in surprise: "Are you kidding? How is it possible to turn the entire city into zombies? I'm afraid that before it's done, it will be struck into ashes by a bolt of lightning from the sky."

Zombies are neither human nor ghost nor demon. They are excluded from the six paths. They are neither alive nor dead because of the resentment in their throats. They are monsters that are not tolerated by the heavens. Zombies practice for thousands of years to become flying zombies that are not afraid of sunlight. They are full of evil and are extremely evil. Even if they can walk in the sunlight, they will have to live in seclusion because of their corpse-like appearance. Especially when zombies have not practiced to become flying zombies, they need to drink blood to fill their stomachs. They are even more hated by everyone. Generally, zombies do not live to become flying zombies, but if they become flying zombies, they are difficult to subdue.

The result of killing the flying zombies in Changhe Yizhuang was the loss of three Shangqing Tianshi, which shows how terrible the flying zombies are. Moreover, in order to maintain a balance, the Heavenly Dao will never allow the entire city to be transformed into zombies. If the entire city is transformed into zombies, it will definitely be full of evil spirits and resentment, affecting the country's destiny, and the Heavenly Dao will never sit idly by.

Just as Zhang Qiudao said, before the whole city is turned into zombies, the Heaven will directly send down a thunderbolt to smash the whole city into ashes.

"If Heaven does not allow something, even the flying zombies that have lived from the Spring and Autumn Period to the present cannot do it. What about a mere 700-year-old evil ghost?" Zhang Qiudao obviously did not believe what Ma Shanfeng said. He questioned, "Could he be mistaken?"

"That's right." Ma Shanfeng shook his head: "Have you ever heard of someone with a Yin constitution?"

Mao Xiaoli and others nodded: "We've heard of it." Chen Yang's heart moved, and he looked up at Ma Shanfeng, waiting for his explanation.

Ma Shanfeng asked Chen Yang: "Does Director Chen know?"

Chen Yang: "I know. Extreme Yin constitution, or extremely Yin constitution, is a very Yin-like fate. Born on the third broken day of the winter solstice, the extremely Yin resentment gathers in the body, and is coveted by all kinds of ghosts. It is a fate of early death."

The third day of the year is the Big Ghost Festival, a very yin day that occurs once every sixty years. The gates of the underworld are wide open, and all the tortured evil spirits in hell rush into the human world, causing the yin energy in the world of the living to reach its peak. This day is also known as the day of the ten thousand ghosts. Pedestrians dare not go out late at night for fear of being disturbed by evil spirits. There is a saying among the people on the winter solstice: "When the yin energy reaches its peak, the yang energy begins to arrive." This means that the winter solstice is the day when the yin energy is at its peak in the year. After the peak, it slowly weakens, and the yang energy in the world of the living begins to gradually become strong.

Therefore, it is rare in history that the three broken days and the winter solstice, two extremely yin days, collide with each other. Once they collide, pedestrians dare not go out, the doors and windows of the house must be closed, and candles are lit in the room until dawn. If a child is born on this day, it is extremely bad to have a strange yin horoscope, and then he will be the best body in the eyes of all ghosts.

Ten thousand ghosts want to seize a body, so they will inevitably fight each other, and eventually a ghost king will be born. How can a baby's body withstand the ghost king's fierce ghost energy? It can only end up dying young. If someone tries every means to protect the baby, it will be harassed by evil spirits and ghosts for years and months, and cannot relax at all. In the end, the baby's family will be destroyed, and the baby may not live past the age of fifteen.

Therefore, there is a rumor in Taoism that there are no people with extremely yin constitution in the world, because they usually do not live long.

Ma Shanfeng: "The evil ghost is called Wu Lingjiu, and was born on the day of Sanpo, which happened to coincide with the winter solstice. His horoscope was extremely yin, and his constitution was extremely yin, so he was destined to die young, but he was born when the Wu clan was still prosperous. No one knew evil ghosts better than the Wu clan, which was also known as the ghost clan. They protected Wu Lingjiu and even regarded him as the incarnation of the god in the Wu clan. Because Wu Lingjiu tamed the evil spirit that wanted to kill him and made him a servant, he became the only chief witch in the world who knew how to tame ghosts."

"Wu Lingjiu?" Mao Xiaoli was slightly surprised. "I've heard of him. Our Maoshan Sect and the Wu Clan actually have a very close relationship. Although the origin of Tianshi Dao is witchcraft, after years of improvement, the current Taoism is actually very different from witchcraft. Maoshan Sect is divided into black witchcraft and white witchcraft, and most of them retain witchcraft. So I know more about the Wu Clan. My father said that after the demise of the ancient Shu Kingdom and the disappearance of the Ghost Clan, witchcraft began to decline. But seven hundred years ago, the Wu Clan had a genius named Wu Lingjiu. It is rumored that he almost restored the Ghost Kingdom, so he was revered as a saint in the Wu Clan, especially in the Ghost Kingdom, and he served as a monarch."

Zhang Qiu said: "The Tianshi Dao mentioned Wu Lingjiu, but only said one sentence: 'He was gifted at a young age, but his personality was eccentric, and he unfortunately died young.' There was not much description of the rest, as if it was a secret."

Mao Xiaoli: "Because he once tried to restore the Ghost Kingdom and turn everyone into his subjects. Ah, I remember now. Uncle Ma said that Wu Lingjiu once wanted to turn the entire city's citizens into zombie blood, and he did succeed. However, they were all turned into zombies with infinite strength but no wisdom, like bloodthirsty beasts. Wu Lingjiu thought they were failures, not the citizens of the Ghost Kingdom he wanted. It happened that he was already exhausted at that time. After all, he turned the entire city's citizens into zombies and concealed it from the Heavenly Dao, so he must have used a perverse forbidden technique. At that time, many heavenly masters surrounded the Zombie City. Although Wu Lingjiu was sent to hell, he still couldn't save the entire city's citizens. In a short period of time, the prosperous city became a dead city."

"Where is that city?" Chen Yang asked.

Mao Xiaoli answered, "From our perspective today, it is a city, but in history it was a small kingdom. It was called the Guge Kingdom, and it was once very prosperous. It is now located on a hill by the Xiangquan River in the Zhabujiang District of Ali, and is a cultural relic. History records that the demise of the Guge Kingdom was caused by war, but some scholars have studied that war and natural disasters are not enough to turn the Guge Kingdom from a prosperous city into a dead city in a short period of time. My father mentioned that the demise of the Guge Kingdom was related to the Wu Lingjiu's refining of zombies, and I guess it was that city."

Chen Yang nodded: "Wu Lingjiu is the evil ghost that escaped... Is his purpose to create his own ghost country? The method of refining zombies, I remember that the technique book mentioned that it is necessary to use... zombie blood, the blood of flying zombies!" He suddenly looked at Kou Xuanling, who reacted. Chen Yang: "Zombie blood from Changhe Yizhuang!"

Kou Xuanling: "No one can find zombie blood. The death of the three Shangqing Heavenly Masters shocked the entire Heavenly Master world. The Taoist Association sent people to search for zombie blood in Changhe Yizhuang for several years, but they couldn't find any. Flying zombies' zombie blood is extremely sinister and evil. Everyone knows the seriousness of zombie blood. So they have never given up looking for zombie blood, even though there are rumors that there is no zombie blood in Changhe Yizhuang at all."

Chen Yang frowned and said, "We still have to tell the police about the situation."

The police department responded quickly, specifically stating that no abnormal people were found. However, there was a girl at the scene, named Meng Yao, who was in a state of madness after waking up. They asked a Taoist priest for help, and the Taoist priest said that Meng Yao was possessed by a demon. After he performed a ritual to exorcise the evil spirit remaining in Meng Yao, Meng Yao fainted and only woke up this morning.

The first thing he said when he woke up was: "Meng Xi is not my brother, he is an evil ghost!"

Meng Yao was extremely frightened, repeating only this sentence over and over again. She was gradually regaining consciousness, but when a nurse came to give her an injection, the nurse suddenly grabbed Meng Yao's wrist, grinned and stabbed the syringe into her wrist and shouted loudly: "Yaoyao, you are not obedient! Come back soon, and we will be reunited as a family!"

Meng Yao went crazy again, this time not because of a demon, but because she was really scared. The nurse was caught and proved to be possessed by a demon, and she remembered nothing after waking up.

Chen Yang: "Is Meng Xi a Wu Lingjiu? An evil ghost that escaped from hell? Did he take the zombie blood to replicate another ghost country, or did he think that his current ability was enough to refine zombies?"

Meng Xi is about 20 years old. The evil ghost escaped from hell 20 years ago. If it happened to possess Meng Xi, it could explain why Meng's parents ignored him. It was because they realized that their child's body was taken away by the evil ghost who came from nowhere, and they hated the evil ghost but were reluctant to hurt the child's body, so they chose to ignore it.

It is difficult to tell whether Wu Lingjiu's words are true or false, but Chen Yang knows that Wu Lingjiu probably disdains to please the Meng family, so his statement that the Meng family ignored him in the past is true, but it is unlikely that the Meng family will use Wu Lingjiu's efforts to embrace Meng Yao.

Chen Yang: "Notify the Taoist Association immediately and issue a wanted notice for Meng Xi." As he was speaking, Da Pang jumped in with a photo in his mouth and placed it in front of him. Chen Yang picked up the photo and saw a woman in white clothes holding a black cat with a pale face. He thought about it for a while and felt familiar. So he asked Da Pang: "Do you know someone?"

Da Pang wagged his tail. Chen Yang said, "Have I seen her?"

Big Fatty took out a card, and it said: "Wish House". Chen Yang suddenly realized: "You once led me to the hostess of the Wish House." Mao Xiaoli heard about her competitor and hurried over: "Let me see, she suddenly disappeared for nearly a month." Seeing the photo, she also confirmed: "It is indeed the hostess of the Wish House."

Chen Yang asked Dapang: "What happened to her? Do you want me to help you find her?"

Da Pang raised his right hind leg and tried to bury his face in it, but he was too fat and could only raise his leg three centimeters. There were layers of fat between his face and legs, which was very embarrassing. Da Pang simply buried his face in his stomach, and when he buried it, his belly, which looked like a mountain of meat, moved like jelly, with layers of waves.

Chen Yang couldn't help it, and raised his hand to stroke: "You wouldn't mention her at this time for no reason, and you wouldn't lead me to the Wish House for no reason. If you wanted to find her, you would have found her a month ago. So she is related to Wu Lingjiu, right?"

Da Pang curled up into a giant ball, motionless. But his tail wagged, confirming Chen Yang's answer. Mao Xiaoli's eyes widened, and she secretly touched Da Pang's fur. As soon as she touched Da Pang's fur, her tail shook her away, and a red mark appeared on the back of her hand. She muttered, "If you don't want to touch me, then don't touch me. You are so stingy." After that, Mao Xiaoli discussed with Da Pang, "I ordered two boxes of cat wine. Let me pinch you. I'll give you one bottle for every five pinches."

Dapang shoved a sign in her face: Pinch three times and I’ll give you a bottle.

Mao Xiaoli: "You might as well go and rob it!"

The fat man took back the cards with a swish, his round back full of the indifference and ruthlessness of a businessman who would not tolerate bargaining. Mao Xiaoli calculated the price of the cat wine and found that it was within her pocket, so she compromised and happily stroked the cat ball.

Kou Xuanling was also tempted, but he didn't have cat wine. So he earnestly explained to Da Pang the rules of getting along with colleagues in the workplace: "... So, colleagues are partners and brothers. Since they are cats, what's wrong with petting them?"

Fatty was unmoved and rolled his eyes at Kou Xuanling. Chen Yang pushed Kou Xuanling away: "Don't make trouble. Fatty, who is she?"

Dapang put up a sign that read: 'Xu Ani'.

Chen Yang: "Xu Ani? Your previous owner Xu Ani?" Da Pang swung his tail. Chen Yang was surprised: "She is still alive?"

Xu Ani lived in the Sui Dynasty, more than a thousand years ago. If he survived, wouldn't he be more than a thousand years old? Da Pang pulled out a card, which read: Zombie.

Chen Yang wanted to ask more, but Da Pang refused to say more. Chen Yang had no choice but to tell the Taoist Association about Xu Ani and Wu Lingjiu. He guessed that Xu Ani was a hairy zombie that was about to become a flying zombie, otherwise Wu Lingjiu would not have gone to such great lengths to find zombie blood in Changhe Yizhuang.

Chen Yang and Kou Xuanling went to attend a meeting held by the Taoist Association, leaving Zhang Qiudao and Mao Xiaoli behind. When Zhang Qiudao came back, Chen Yang and Du Shuo had been in the room for a whole day and didn't know what happened. So he pulled Mao Xiaoli aside and asked, "You said Du Shuo and Chen Yang had a quarrel, why did they quarrel?"

Mao Xiaoli shook her head: "I don't know."

Zhang Qiu said, "... You're so excited to call me over to watch the show?"

Mao Xiaoli: "Uncle Ma told me that they had a fight and asked me to go watch a play. I think it's fine to just watch the play. It's pointless to dwell on the reason why Brother Chen and Director Du quarreled."

"So you don't know why they're fighting?"

Mao Xiaoli nodded, then pointed at Ma Shanfeng: "Uncle Ma knows."

Ma Shanfeng looked up at them, smiled, picked up his teacup and slipped back to the office: "Sometimes a husband and wife quarrel for no reason, you will understand this later. As for others, just watch and don't delve into it."

Chen Yang and Kou Xuanling went to attend the Taoist Association. As the director of the Dafu Branch, he felt a little uncomfortable sitting among a group of bigwigs in the Tianshi world. Fortunately, he met the familiar master of the Fire God Temple, Meng Fu. Later, when he had a video conference with the heads of Taoist Associations in other regions, he also met the master of the Changdao Temple in Sichuan Province, Yi Wei, and the abbot of the Ziyang Palace in Shen City, Su Li and Hu Yingnan.

They took the initiative to greet Chen Yang, which saved him from being speechless in the unfamiliar world of Heavenly Masters. But what Chen Yang did not expect was that after Meng Fu, Yi Wei and others, there were many Heavenly Masters who greeted him. These Heavenly Masters were all walking signs in the Heavenly Master World. They had long known that the Imperial Capital Branch had a talented director, a rare descendant of the Ghost Dao. Naturally, they all had the idea of taking care of the younger generation. In addition, the Ghost Dao was in decline, so the Heavenly Master Dao had to help a little.

So when they first met, Chen Yang received a lot of gifts from the big guys in the Tianshi world, filling up his schoolbag. Kou Xuanling told him to relax and not feel uncomfortable, because these big guys are very rich. And it is their hobby to give gifts to the younger generation when they meet, so just accept it.

Chen Yang: "Do you have experience?"

"Any young people with some talent have experience and are not surprised by this." Kou Xuanling immediately cited Mao Xiaoli and Zhang Qiu as examples: "They have also received many gifts, especially Mao Xiaoli, who has received gifts no less than ten times. Every time the Taoist Association holds a routine exchange meeting, Taoist Master Mao will take the young people in his family to visit the various Heavenly Masters, and leave satisfied after taking away the good things."

So later on, when the bigwigs in the Tianshi world saw the elders of the Mao family coming up with their younger ones with shy smiles on their faces, their hearts ached for a while.

After a while, everyone took their seats, and more than 30 of the 50 seats were empty. But there were tablets on those seats, and the tablets were connected to start video chat. The Taoist priests greeted each other and chatted, and when the president of the Taoist Association and the director of the Dafu General Administration walked in, everyone stopped talking and kept quiet.

They all looked over and glanced at the president, who still had the same celestial appearance with a flowing white beard and was still dressed simply. Then they looked at Director Beibei and all stared at the pig head on his chest, creating a weird atmosphere.

Chen Qingdai is a well-known Shangqing Celestial Master of the Quanzhen Sect, and was elected as the president because of his high moral character. He is one of the few Celestial Masters who knows Dushuo's true identity, and when he came in with him, he also noticed the pig's head embroidered on the chest of his clothes.

Chen Qingdai stroked his beard and said, "He still has a childlike innocence."

Du Shuo said calmly: "The one in my family embroidered it himself."

"The one at home?" Chen Qingdai was very surprised: "Is Du Ju married?"

"Yeah." Du Shuo smiled, his eyes fell on Chen Yang who was not far ahead: "He is naughty."

Chen Qingdai had experienced a lot of ups and downs. Even when he heard the King of Fengdu admitting to his face that he was married and showing off their affection in front of him, he was very calm and quickly accepted it: "Congratulations."

Then, based on the pig-head stitch on Du Shuo's chest, he praised his wife's kindness and dexterity. One has to know that not many people are interested in embroidery nowadays, especially one with really good skills.

The conversation between the two was heard by other Heavenly Masters, among whom no more than five knew Du Shuo's true identity. The others only thought he was the Director of the General Administration and had some connection with Fengdu. Seeing him getting married, they thought it was a newlywed wedding and congratulated him one after another.

Du Shuo corrected: "We are not newly married. We have been married for almost seven years."

Everyone was even more surprised, as they had never expected that Du Shuo had kept it a secret for so long. On second thought, Du Shuo was a low-key person who rarely appeared in the world of heavenly masters, so it was normal that no one knew that he had a family.

Meng Fu, the head of the Fire God Temple, asked in surprise: "Who is Du Ju going to marry?"

Chen Yang half-covered his face and had not looked at him since Du Shuo came in. Upon hearing this, he immediately shook his head: "I don't know."

"It's normal that you don't know. I don't know either." Meng Fu thought that Chen Yang had only been in the Heavenly Master Realm for a year, so it was normal that he didn't know Du Shuo. "Du Bureau has always been mysterious and low-key. Although he took office as the director of the General Bureau four years ago, the number of times he appeared in public can be counted on two hands."

Chen Yang nodded, his face flushed a little: "Well, I don't know him."

Kou Xuanling glanced at Chen Yang, but did not expose him. She listened to Meng Fu's chatter in silence.

But he suddenly remembered that four years ago, Chen Yang was about to enter his sophomore year, and a year was enough for him to adapt to life in the imperial capital. Then Du Shuo suddenly became the director of the General Administration. Could it be that he took on this tiring job just to take care of Chen Yang

Kou Xuanling looked at Chen Yang, who was embarrassed and angry, and then at Du Shuo, who was smiling and glancing at him from time to time. This was only in front of a group of old men from the Tianshi world, otherwise any young and gossipy person would be able to see through the affair between the two at a glance. He shook his head and sighed that maybe Du Shuo came to the world of the living for Chen Yang.

I didn't expect that the Emperor of Fengdu would be so infatuated! Kou Xuanling sighed, and then touched the portrait of the ancestor he carried with him.

Meng Fu looked at Kou Xuanling and saw that he was carrying the portrait of the ancestor with him again. He was no longer surprised. He even teased him, "I heard that when you were in Changhe Yizhuang, the ancestor appeared twice to save you, but the portrait was torn up."

Kou Xuanling's face turned black: "Master Meng, don't mention this. If you mention it again, I will be angry."

Meng Fu laughed a few times when he heard this, and then shut up after he was satisfied with his teasing of Kou Xuanling.

Du Shuo started to talk about the evil ghosts that escaped from hell. When he mentioned Wu Lingjiu who tried to turn the entire city into zombies seven hundred years ago, everyone's faces became solemn and their attention finally shifted from the pig head on Du Ju's chest to Wu Lingjiu.

Chen Yang patted his hot face. What Du Shuo said was almost exactly what he guessed. So he didn't listen carefully at this moment. Instead, he stared at Du Shuo's serious profile in a daze.

He seemed to have never seen Du Shuo working seriously, although he was always busy. It was rare to see this side of Du Shuo now, and he was as charming as expected. Even though Du Shuo changed into an ordinary face, his majestic aura still fascinated Chen Yang.

Meng Fu pushed Chen Yang and said, "Director Chen, have you come back to life?"

Chen Yang suddenly came back to his senses and found that the meeting was over. Du Shuo was chatting with the president of the Taoist Association for a few words, and then told the people around him to do things. The other heavenly masters also left one after another, and he realized that he was fascinated by Du Shuo. So he said awkwardly: "Du, Du Shuo is so handsome."

Meng Fu looked at him worriedly: "Everyone in the Heavenly Master World knows about it, but Du Ju is already married."

Chen Yang was stunned for a moment, then reacted and found that Kou Xuanling was already lying on the table and laughing. He smiled and said, "I know, I just admire Du Ju. That's all."

Meng Fu wanted to persuade him again, but Du Shuo had already finished talking to the president of the Taoist Association and walked over to Chen Yang and said, "Are you done?"

Chen Yang nodded.

"Are you hungry?" Du Shuo naturally took Chen Yang's hand, nodded to the petrified master of the Fire God Temple, turned and left.

Chen Yang turned around and smiled at Meng Fu, then whispered to Du Shuo, "It's okay. Brother Du, you were so handsome just now!"

"Do you like it?"

“I like it very much.”

Kou Xuanling patted Meng Fu's shoulder sympathetically, feeling sorry for him because he was the last one to leave among the Taoist priests present, and had to endure such a shock at his age. Kou Xuanling decided to be a good person to the end, and kindly gave him a push: "You read it right, the person whom Du Ju has been married to for almost seven years, the one at home is Chen Yang, our director."

After saying this, he left calmly.

Master Meng scratched his hair and cried out "Ah!", his mind being greatly impacted.

The author has something to say: Winter Solstice is the most yin day, and the third day is the Big Ghost Festival, which is said to occur once every sixty years. However, there is no such saying in Taoism and Buddhism.
