Chapter 269 Old Yellow Skin

There is another one? !

When did the Hai Gang become fortune tellers on the street? Anyone can find them?

Mysterious, independent, not following the rules of the underworld, and having their own set of principles...

This is the Hai Gang!!

To be honest, no matter from which aspect, the Hai Gang is not the kind that is easy to get along with!

If we hadn't gone out to sea to find the illusory Penglai Island, the journey would have been difficult and dangerous. We really didn't want to come here to deal with them. I think all the people in the Xuanmen probably think so. It's really unexpected that they can collide with each other and make a huge mistake!

I don't know what the old man Shi in the wheelchair was thinking about. His behavior was very strange. At first, he nodded to my master, which was a silent exchange between the heads. Then he looked at Brother Yaozi and Zhang Xinya meaningfully, and then carefully looked at me and Wushuang, as if our secrets were completely transparent in his eyes, but he couldn't feel any breath of a master on him. After a long time, he finally nodded slightly and said softly: "It's interesting. I thought my eyelids were twitching recently. First, the Tianmeng appeared again and posted everywhere. Then, the descendants of the etiquette officer and the ferryman were born. All kinds of monsters and ghosts have popped up. It seems that our Hai Gang is really a bit closed."

This was just his soliloquy. He didn't mean to ask, and he didn't deliberately suppress his voice. He revealed our identity in one word.

The eyes of the two old men beside him suddenly became hot, staring at me constantly. Anyone could see that there was a taste of consideration in their eyes, which made people feel creepy.

I always felt that this was not a good thing, but I couldn't say anything.

Then, Old Man Shi waved his hand and calmly ordered the others to retreat and immediately remove the people who surrounded us. He then pointed at Lao Bai and asked Lao Bai to go over and help him push the wheelchair. Let's talk somewhere else.

The young man who was helping him push the wheelchair hesitated for a while, probably because he was worried about his safety.

"What are you afraid of?"

Old Man Shi turned around, glared at the young man, and shouted: "Xiao Bai was exiled back then, lived in my house for three years, and also kept company with me, an old man, for three years. In my eyes, he is no different from my offspring. Could he still hurt me?"

The young man reluctantly stepped back.

Lao Bai originally cried and raged to show his closeness, but at this moment, he was confused, with some hidden worries in his eyes, and subconsciously turned back to look at my master.

I don't know what my master was thinking, his brows were furrowed, and after a moment he sighed and nodded to Lao Bai.

Lao Bai stepped forward, pushed Old Man Shi, and under his instructions, he went out from a small door next to the training ground. There was a long corridor behind him.

Along the way, I was uneasy, always feeling that Old Man Shi's attitude was too weird.

Back then, Lao Bai was chased by the flower boats on the Qinhuai River and had no choice but to flee here. He told me the whole process in detail, and I know it in detail. Back then, Old Man Shi must have taken him in because he was really pitiful. Later, it was said that they had been companions for three years, but it was better to say that Lao Bai served him for three years, more dedicated than a personal servant. Old Man Shi himself was also a dirty guy. In Lao Bai's words, his pants were hard enough to stand up, and the soles of his feet were shiny under the lamp when he could wear black socks. Maybe it was because Lao Bai was really comfortable serving him, so he finally gave him a little protection.

How could the relationship between the two be as close as Old Man Shi said? Maybe Lao Bai was really grateful to him, but it's hard to say how Old Shi feels about Lao Bai.

With such a sudden performance, it's no wonder that Lao Bai hesitated. Something must be wrong. Old Shi has a high status in the Hai Gang and is not a simple character!

While we were thinking about it, we came to the end of the corridor and entered a large living room with a very classical Chinese decoration. There was also a bedroom next to it, with obvious signs of living. It seemed to be a safe house. Old Shi should have stayed here recently. I don't know what happened to make him stay so secluded.

The two old men followed us all the time, one on the left and one on the right, helping Old Shi sit on the Luohan bed, and then they asked us to sit down, make tea and pour water, with a completely different attitude from before.

"We Minnan people love tea, and the best is oolong tea. How about the taste of my tea?"

Old Man Shi greeted me with a smile. I don't know if it was intentional or not. He happened to be sitting next to me. He took my hand and greeted me like a gentle elder: "I haven't seen the etiquette officer out for many years. Since you have entered this line, it means that you must have grown up. I wonder how your family is doing?"

I don't think this is just idle chat. In addition to what Qingzhu said before, I am afraid of the so-called Jianghu. I am not sure whether this Hai Gang has any connection with our etiquette officer in the past. I don't know the depth, so I dare not say anything nonsense. I turned my head to look at my master. Seeing my master nod, I said that I just learned a little bit.

"A little knowledge is good enough. The ritual official's stuff is not easy to learn."

Old Man Shi nodded, and then asked: "What about the "Ten Thousand Burials Sutra"? Have you read it? How many of the four chapters can you understand?"

This is not a surprise. My master knew the Ten Thousand Burials Sutra at the beginning. This old man Shi is unfathomable and must know it too. I just don't know whether I should tell the truth, so I looked at my master again. Seeing my master nodded, I told the truth that I can only understand the Three Burials of Heaven and Human and the Five Elements Hidden Treasures at present.

"What about the Heavenly Official Juque?"

Old Man Shi's tone suddenly became urgent: "How much of this sutra can you understand?"

"I can't understand it."

I said: "The sacrificial text at the end is too profound. I guess I am not good enough, but since it says it is the Heavenly Official Juque, I think it is probably the doorway of the Heavenly Official. I know how to get to that step now."

"Oh, not bad."

Old Man Shi leaned back, playing with the tea set in his hand leisurely, and asked no more questions. He had a meaningful smile on his face, and I don't know what he was thinking. After a while, he pointed at the two old men beside him and said to my master with a smile: "My two old brothers have been watching the things in that place through the camera. They came to tell me that Zhang Daoxuan is here. At first I didn't believe it. After all, Mr. Zhang retired at the height of his career and didn't walk around for many years. I didn't expect it to be true. Although you and I have never met, I have seen your photos a long time ago. Now I see the real person, you are more handsome than in the photos, and more unconventional than I imagined. You even accepted a ceremonial officer as a Taoist disciple. It seems that this time you came out of the mountain, I am afraid it is also for you, your disciple?"

My master never liked to beat around the bush with people, so he said directly: "After the greetings, let's not talk about our business first, why don't we talk about another group of people first? You said that some acquaintances came to you and mistook us for them. I'm very curious, who are these people?!"

"The seaside has been very uneasy recently."

Old Man Shi sighed lightly, and this time he didn't hide anything and told the whole story of the matter truthfully.

It turned out that the acquaintance he had been waiting for was actually an old yellow-skinned man!

In his words, he and the old yellow-skinned man had a relationship of a pipe of tobacco.

The story started about five or six years ago. The old yellow-skinned man didn't get the Tao in the Minyue area, but escaped from Jiangxi. At that time, his descendants sneaked into a farmer's house and stole someone's chicken. As a result, they were caught in the act. The owner of the chicken was also a scoundrel. He didn't care whether the yellow-skinned man could be beaten or not. He beat him with a stick and the little yellow-skinned man died.

The yellow-skinned snake is the most vengeful creature. If the young one is beaten to death, the old one will naturally come out to seek revenge. So he sneaked into the family, lay at the head of the child's bed, and sucked the child's energy. Since then, the child has been sick every now and then. Today he has a cold, tomorrow he has a sore throat. He went to the hospital, and the doctor said that it was due to poor immunity, but he could not find the root of the disease and had no way to treat it. Not long after, the child died of bird flu.

Originally, no one in the family thought about it, but they couldn't stop the villagers from talking privately. How could a healthy boy suddenly have poor immunity? Although bird flu is dangerous, it is not incurable. As long as there are no particularly dangerous complications, most of them are curable. The family is not bad financially, and they took the child to many good doctors in hospitals. Why did he die in the end? There must be something unclean at work.

The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional.

The only child in the family was gone, and the family couldn't accept it. When they heard about this, they also felt strange, just like a fight, they had to find out everything. Their home was very close to Longhu Mountain. The couple believed in Taoism and had a very good relationship with the Taoist priests in the temple. Without saying anything, they went up the mountain to invite the Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain.

Everyone in the Xuanmen knew that most Taoists were peaceful, but there were only two exceptions, one was the Tianshi Dao of Longhu Mountain, and the other was the Shangqing Maoshan Dao of Jiangsu. Most of the descendants of Maoshan are not seen now, but the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain are often seen. These Taoist priests are extremely domineering and have almost zero tolerance for evil spirits that harm people.

The Taoist priest went down the mountain, dug the grave and looked at the body. He saw that the body of the 16- or 17-year-old child had not decayed after being buried for three or four months. The body was filled with extremely cold and yin energy, and bacteria could not grow. The body was almost frozen. He immediately knew that it was the work of evil spirits. Following the scent left by the old yellow-skinned fox, he found the nest of the yellow-skinned foxes. Without saying a word, he used his magic weapon to fight and almost killed all the yellow-skinned foxes in the nest. The old yellow-skinned fox was torn apart and fled, but the Taoist priest still did not let it go and chased it all over the world.

The old yellow-skinned fox finally fled here. In fact, his idea was similar to that of Lao Bai when he came here to seek refuge. This was the territory of the Hai Gang, and there were very few other Xuanmen!

Perhaps it was fate that made the old yellow-skinned man finally come to Old Man Shi. They were very polite. Every day when Old Man Shi smoked in front of the house, the old yellow-skinned man would squat on the roof and inhale the smoke. They also followed him in puffing and exhaling. The two had never communicated with each other, but they accompanied each other every day and became a pair of smoking buddies.

At this point, Old Man Shi suddenly glanced at Old Man Li. The two old men exchanged glances, and then he said, "Who would have thought that the Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain would be so domineering. In the end, he chased and killed the people to the territory of the Hai Gang, and directly said that he had no harm to the Hai Gang because the Hai Gang had always been upright. If the Hai Gang sheltered the evil spirits that harmed people, it would be no different from the evil ways, and there would be no need to say that we should not interfere with each other. We would definitely kill and bleed.

Tell me, I can't really fight Longhu Mountain for a yellow-skinned person who is seeking refuge, right? Others don't know, but Mr. Zhang doesn't know? There is still an old Taoist priest on Longhu Mountain now!

So, I made up my mind and expelled the old yellow-skinned person.

The yellow-skinned person finally went to the Yinren Inn."

At this point, I couldn't sit still anymore. I looked at Old Man Li, who nodded with a wry smile, admitting that there was indeed such a thing. For this matter, the old Taoist priest even deduced it, and almost found the real location and got beaten up.

At this point, it seems that everything is clear...

The Yinren Inn was tricked by the Water Prince to open the door, and all the things inside were released. Now they are all following the Water Prince, and the old yellow-skinned guy is no exception!

And this time, we are not the only one looking for the mysterious overseas Penglai Mountain. The Water Prince is also looking for it. Moreover, to be honest, it was because of the Water Prince that we knew about Yang Yuhuan's matter and had these clues now.

So, we can think of going out to sea to find the sea gang, but the Water Prince can't think of it?

This yellow-skinned guy came here a while ago! !

However, we are human beings, and they are unclean creatures. If we ask the Hai Gang for help, we will be rejected at most, and at worst, we will be spat on the face with toilet water. But they are not like that. The Hai Gang still hates these things, just like natural enemies. If they really come to our door, I am afraid they will be beaten to death by the Hai Gang! !

So, with the old yellow skin leading the way, the evil spirits following the Water Prince all approached the old man Shi, trying to hold the emperor hostage to control the princes...

The old man Shi spread his hands and sighed: "Fortunately, I am cautious in doing things, otherwise I would have fallen. There are many enemies of the Hai Gang in these years. In order to avoid being sought for revenge, I have moved out to live, and every time before going home, I have to observe the surroundings carefully before entering the house."

Looking at the helpless look of this old man, I was even more speechless, thinking to myself, what on earth did you do to make your life so chaotic?

Don't mention it, even Old White didn't know about this habit, let alone the yellow-skinned man.

A bunch of evil spirits squatted at the entrance of the village, waiting for Old Man Shi to go home.

Old Man Shi noticed it from a long distance away. When he listened carefully, the old yellow-skinned man was talking about their plan with a smug look on his face. His nose was crooked with anger, thinking that the cigarettes I gave you back then were all smoked in vain? He is an ungrateful wolf with white eyes!

However, Old Man Shi didn't listen much, and fled in a hurry because of fear. Because he ran in a hurry, he couldn't see the road in the dark night. He didn't know which wicked ghost actually stole the manhole cover on the road. He fell into it and broke his leg...

Old Man Shi has been in the underworld all his life. When has he ever done such a shameful thing? When his men pulled him out of the sewer, his face turned green. He vowed to kill the yellow-skinned man and rushed back with a group of people. As a result, the old yellow-skinned man left early before he could catch him...

Old Shi knew that the village was no longer safe. After all, he had lived there for so long and knew everyone in the village. So he moved everyone away, and then replaced the waiters and their families from the village to disguise as villagers, set up a trap, and waited for the yellow-skinned man to come again, trick him into this place, and kill him all at once!

Those men in the training hall were just appetizers. There were many good players hidden in the secret doors around!

As a result, the old yellow-skinned guy didn't come, and we were unlucky enough to run into his bag...

"That's what happened. In fact, you are just unlucky..."

Old Man Shi said: "But then again, looking at you like this, it seems that the old yellow-skinned guy is also your opponent? This time you have the same purpose, are you here to borrow people and boats?"

My master nodded: "Yes, we want to go to sea, and... we must be quick. The Water Lord has already taken action. If they succeed first, we will definitely have no chance."

"In principle, our Hai Gang will not participate in your affairs. This is the rule, and the rules are the rules."

Old Man Shi drank the tea in one gulp, slapped the teacup on the table, looked at me with sparkling eyes, and said lightly: "Unless this matter is related to our Hai Gang, then it is our Hai Gang's business. There is no problem with contributing manpower and effort."
