That old man frowned, said, "Don't tell me you are here to complain to me, this is not your character."
Reverend DaoXuan looked at that old man for a moment, suddenly laughed out and then sighed and said, "You and I have been friends for these few hundred years, as expected only you know me best."
That old man shook his head and said, "I know you best? If it is really so, I will not be here guarding the ancestral hall. Alright, less nonsense, what exactly do you want to say? "
Reverend DaoXuan seemed to be especially lenient towards the old man, he contradicted him several times but DaoXuan did not take it to heart, only his face looked solemn, slowly said, "I have already made up my mind, this battle concerns too much, for the world's common people's livelihood, I want to remove Qing Yun Hill seven peaks Heaven seal."
That old man's expression suddenly froze, frowned deeply, looked deeply at DaoXuan, DaoXuan looked back calmly, after a long time, that old man slowly said, "This matter, have you thought it through?"
DaoXuan slowly nodded, said, "But today when I secretly informed the six leaders, Tian BuYi asked someone to pass on some words to me, advised me to be careful of the evil energy backlash."
That old man coldly laughed, turned and faced those ancestors' memorial tablets, after a long time said, "It's not like you have never entered the 'Illusory Moon Cave', what is inside, you yourself know." After a pause, his voice suddenly softened, with a trace of helplessness, said, "You better take care of yourself."
Reverend DaoXuan was silent, after a moment he also raised his head, looked at that deep dark shadow, that silent majesty, seemed to be silently sneering in the darkness.
Seven days later, around Qing Yun Hill, rumours of demon beasts appearing increased, within a hundred miles, with HeYang City at the foot of the mountain as the centre, people could be seen fleeing everywhere. As if right now in this world, only that lofty towering Qing Yun Hill, could give people a little comfort and sense of safety.
And amidst the noise of the countless people, HeYang City was the most chaotic place, the streets and alleys were packed with people, the original inns and restaurants in the city were already full of people, and even more refugees had to sleep in the open. Under these circumstances, the food supply in River Sun City became very tight. Fortunately, because the city was right by the river, there was no need to worry about the water supply.
Originally in this kind of chaotic situation, it was hard to guarantee that there would not be any robberies, murders and other evils, on the matter, there were indeed such rumours from time to time, yesterday someone disappeared and today someone's corpse was heard lying on the streets. But HeYang City was after all at the foot of Qing Yun Hill, Qing Yun Sect had long made preparations and sent quite a number of disciples to maintain order in the city, therefore in general these numerous refugees in this calamity, did not meet with any mishap.
Just that, with that terrifying demon beast rumour spreading day by day, who could predict what tomorrow would be like? In this situation, the atmosphere in HeYang City was getting more and more uneasy, people were panicking.
And in such a situation, Jianghu fortune teller Zhou Yixian, with his granddaughter Xiao Huan and Wild Dog Taoist, came to this city. Standing on the previously spacious street, right now densely packed heads could be seen, the main street was so crowded that it was difficult to walk, Wild Dog Taoist was still alright, but Zhou Yixian and Xiao Huan were dumbstruck.
Relying on Wild Dog Taoist's strong physique and ferocious face, opening the way in front, the weaker ones were pushed aside, the stronger ones turned and looked at Wild Dog Taoist, with that face, most of them did not dare to say anything. Zhou Yixian and Xiao Huan followed closely behind Wild Dog Taoist, struggled to move forward, sweating profusely along the way, with great difficulty they passed through the main street, turned into a small alley at the west of HeYang City.
The three of them walked in, the usually secluded alley, right now there were many people standing, but compared to the crowded main street outside, this place could really be said to be spacious. Tanis Ka cursed in a low voice, appearing very angry. It's fine if I, an old man, run for my life, but why are there so many people running with me? In the end, I, an old man, feel so uncomfortable while running for my life.
This small alley was very long, twisting and turning, the further in they walked, the lesser the number of people, after about an hour, the three of them reached the end of the alley, there were no more refugees, the reason was very simple, this place was a morgue, but looking at the dilapidated entrance of this small morgue, even half of the wooden door had fallen to the ground, the other half was nowhere to be seen, not sure if it was taken by someone to be used as firewood.
Zhou Yixian looked at this morgue, shook his head, sighed, Xiao Huan stood beside him, quietly called out, said, "Grandpa."
Wild Dog did not understand, but he was from Evil Sect, he did not really care about these morgues with bad luck, only puzzled, why would Zhou Yixian and Xiao Huan come to this place.
Zhou Yixian was silent for a while, said, "Let's go in, no matter what, this place should be quieter."
After speaking, he took the lead and walked in, Xiao Huan and Wild Dog followed behind him. Walking into the morgue, in the small courtyard, the grass and trees were desolate, scattered wooden shavings and broken beams could be seen everywhere, indistinctly there seemed to be some white things shining in the grass. Xiao Huan's face was slightly pale, couldn't help but pulled Zhou Yixian's clothes.
Zhou Yixian turned back and looked at her, quietly comforted, "It's not the first time here, what are you afraid of, and this is also your father's place, will he harm us?"
Xiao Huan nodded, her face then became better, Wild Dog Taoist frowned behind but did not say anything.
In front of the courtyard was the morgue's gatehouse, Zhou Yixian walked up, saw the door was covered with dust, not sure how long had it been since someone came here, he was speechless, shook his head, sighed again and pushed the door open.
[Creak …] The wooden door made an ear-piercing sound, slowly retreated in, a mouldy smell gushed out, in the dim light, three coffins were placed disorderly, but the coffin lids were already scattered at the side.
An unspeakable desolation of the years, as if in this small house, faintly emanated out. Tanis Ka's mouth twitched twice, his face pale, slowly walked up, did not look at the scattered coffins, went straight to the sacrificial table where incense sticks were placed, looked at the dozens of spirit tablets on the table that were lying all over the place.
The room was silent, as if no one dared to speak. Zhou Yixian slowly stretched out his hand, picked up those spirit tablets, slowly wiped off the thick layer of dust on them, glanced at them, put them aside, and then went to find the next one. Just like this, when he was cleaning the seventh spirit tablet, he saw the words "Beloved son Zhou Xingyun's Spirit Tablet" written on the tablet.
Tanis Ka stopped, silently looked at the spirit board, after staring for a long time, Tonni slowly walked up, looked at the spirit board in his hand, her eyes were also a little moist, quietly said: "Grandpa, put father's spirit board properly."
Zhou Yixian heaved a long sigh, his face somewhat desolate, nodded. Tonni took the tablet from his hand, carefully placed it on the sacrificial table, then stepped back, put her palms together, respectfully bowed to the tablet, quietly said, "Father, me and grandpa have come back to see you again, these years thanks to you, although grandpa and I have roamed the world but everything is fine. Today we have come back to clean up for you, hope you do not blame us. "
After saying that, he respectfully bowed three times. Wild Dog Taoist was watching from behind, suddenly walked to the front, bowed thrice to the tablet, startled Zhou Yixian and Tonni, Tonni said in surprise, "Priest, why are you …"
Wild Dog Taoist did not look at Zhou Yixian's strange eyes, said, "Since he is your father, also my senior, coming to this place, I have to pay my respects to senior, it is only right."
Tonni then felt relieved, nodded and said, "Then thank you very much." After speaking, she turned and spoke to the tablet, "Father, this is Wild Dog Taoist, he is a good person, helped me and grandpa a lot."
Zhou Yixian snorted, said, "He is considered a good person, humph humph, harboring evil intentions …"
Wild Dog Taoist's expression froze, but Tonni had already glared at Zhou Yixian, said, "Grandpa, how can you talk nonsense."
Zhou Yixian rolled his eyes, turned and looked elsewhere, Wild Dog Taoist gratefully looked at Tonni, was about to speak, suddenly his body stopped, abruptly turned around, Tonni and Zhou Yixian also seemed to feel something, almost at the same time looked towards the entrance of the morgue.
In the originally desolate and silent morgue, at that door, a black-attired person suddenly appeared, even his face was covered by a black veil, unspeakably strange. The morgue which was initially livelier because of the arrival of Zhou Yixian and the rest, right now because of this person's appearance, suddenly fell into an even deeper deathly silence and desolation.
Wild Dog Taoist's countenance changed greatly, his lips moved a few times, then slowly said with a hoarse voice, "Mr Ghost …"
