Chapter 9: The Child in the Corner Calls Out

Chapter 9: The Child in the Corner Calls Out

This meal has come to a perfect end.

The Old City God had originally planned to let Chen Changsheng rest for one night and accompany him to have a good stroll around the Qiuyue Archway the next day. Had it not been for Chen Changsheng's repeated excuses, he would have almost never been able to leave this gate.

Chen Changsheng walked out of the door and turned back, saying, "There's no need to see him off. Chen Mou has his own destination. The Old City God needn't worry."

The Old City God thought to himself that perhaps the gentleman did not want to be disturbed and did not dare to offend him too much. So he said, "Take care, Sir. I won't disturb you."

Chen Changsheng heaved a sigh of relief in his heart and walked in the direction of the long bridge.

Now, all he could think about was the qi cultivation method in his arms.

Over the years, he has tried countless ways to break the mayfly curse, but the final results have all been unsatisfactory.

This also made him realize that the power of ordinary people was unable to break the curse. Now that he had found the way to cultivate, perhaps he could also find a method from it.

The Old City God stood at the door, looking at Chen Changsheng who was getting further and further away.

He recalled the scene where Mr. Had copied the Dharma gate just now, and was once again shocked in his heart.

"Mr. Chen is truly extraordinary!" "

The Old City God couldn't help feeling a bit scared. If he had known that Mr. Chen had such great abilities, he would never have dared to provoke him.

But now it seems that the result is also good.

The old City God gently stroked his white beard, feeling relieved in his heart.

Just at this moment, a group of evil messengers returned to the City God Temple.

"Report to the City God."

Hong Sancai, with a long knife slung over his waist, leaned forward and reported, "The seal in the pool has been reinforced once. It seems that it won't loosen again in the near future."

The Old City God gave him a satisfied look and said, "Well done. It's just that you came back a bit late. Mr. Chen has already left."

Hong Sancai paused for a moment and said, "Sir, you left?"

The Old City God nodded and said, "I just left."

Hong Sancai opened his mouth, feeling a bit restless in his heart.

The Old City God saw through his thoughts and said, "If you want to go, just go. Come back later and follow me to that ancient well to have a look."

Hong Sancai's face lit up with joy as he clasped his hands and said, "Thank you, City God!"

Having said that, he caught up with the steps that had been following the gentleman.

The old City God gently stroked his white beard, lost in thought to himself.

His friendship with his master was far less than that between Hong Sancai and his master. The Old City God knew in his heart that as long as Hong Sancai's friendship with Mr. Chen continued, his contact with his master would not be less.

At that time, he also thought that it was because of Mr. Chen that Hong Sancai became a itinerant after his death.

The Old City God smiled inwardly. He was very satisfied with the choice he had made back then.

...

Chen Changsheng had just stepped off the bridge.

Then, however, a voice came from behind.

"Mr. Chen!"

"Mr. Chen!!"

Chen Changsheng turned his head and saw the visitor.

Hong Sancai floated up to Chen Changsheng, clasped his fists and said, "I have seen you, Sir."

Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "I was still asking why I didn't see you today."

"I had official business to attend to earlier and was delayed, but fortunately, I made it in time." "

Hong Sancai smiled gently and said, "It's been three years since we last met. Sir, you still haven't changed at all."

Chen Changsheng glanced at him and said, "You've changed quite a lot. You've accumulated a lot of merit and incense on your body, and you're becoming more and more like a hermit."

"After Sir Left last time, the City God promoted me to the position of the Ghost Envoy, all thanks to your good fortune." "

"How could it be that you're thanks to me again?" "

Chen Changsheng smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Chen Mou didn't help you in any way."

"Although you said so, I am well aware of why. If it weren't for you, I might not even be a ghost messenger, let alone a ghost messenger." "

Chen Changsheng just smiled and said nothing more.

How could he not understand these truths?

After that, the two of them found a secluded place to sit down and chat idly.

Hong Sancai, just like before his death, once he started chatting, it would never end.

The heavy snowfall two years ago was really severe. Many people died in the snowy night. For several consecutive days, the courtyard was filled with resentment. We were busy for quite a few days.

Last year, there was even a rat demon that had become a spirit and ran into the workshop to steal chickens to eat. Sir, you have no idea. That rat demon was really fast in burrowing. I chased it for several days before I finally caught it.

"And and..."

...

Hong Sancai was recounting what he had seen and heard during his years as a Yin Chai.

This was even something new that Chen Changsheng had never heard of.

Although he had been in this world for so many years, when he truly woke up, it had only been about ten days. Hearing what Hong Sancai said, he didn't feel bored at all. Instead, he was very curious about what the demons and evil spirits looked like.

You've had quite an interesting life these years. Chen Changsheng smiled and said.

Hong Sancai said, "The Autumn Moon Pavilion can't produce any powerful evil spirits or monsters. At most, there are just some small demons, so it's not a big deal. But if we encounter any powerful monsters, it would be a real disaster."

Have you ever run into that?

"No, but there is a powerful evil spirit in the Autumn Moon Pavilion. It's just that it has been sealed all along. Today, I almost didn't see you, Sir, because I went to reinforce the seal." "

"Seal?"

Chen Changsheng blinked and said, "What a powerful evil spirit?" Can it only be sealed?

I don't know either.

Hong Sancai said, "According to the City God, this evil spirit once killed nearly ten people in the Qiuyue Pavilion, full of resentment. Later, the City God took action himself, but that evil spirit was too cunning. It was only with great difficulty that the City God seized the opportunity to seal it."

Chen Changsheng was horrified upon hearing this.

More than ten people...

This world is really dangerous.

Chen Changsheng couldn't help smacking his lips, thinking to himself that he was glad he hadn't run into these things.

Chen Changsheng and Hong Sancai were chatting so passionately that neither of them paid attention to the situation around them.

Behind that eave, a child stuck his head out.

He has been looking there for a long time.

Tong Zhihuan quietly watched this scene. Apparently, he recognized that gentleman.

In his eyes, he could only see Mr. Chen, as if he were talking to someone, and it seemed as if that person was right beside him.

It's just that he can't see.

Tong Zhi Huan ran home first and asked her father.

Father told him that the one living in the City God Temple was the City God, a ghost or a deity.

Doesn't that mean that this gentleman is now talking to ghosts and gods?

Could it be that you are talking to the City God? '

Is this gentleman a deity?

Tong Zhihuan's small head was filled with many questions. He stared at the gentleman for a long time, unable to come to his senses.

He wonders exactly who this gentleman is talking to.

Chen Changsheng's gaze shifted, looking under the bridge. It was at this moment that he noticed something was hanging beneath the bridge.

Chen Changsheng took a look and asked, "What's hanging under that bridge?"

Hong Sancai looked over and replied, "Sir, that's the Dragon-Slaying Sword."

"Dragon-slaying Sword?"
