I'm just an ordinary Taoist priest

Chapter 132 Zhang Sheng Is Actually My Ancestor

Gu Yao's grandfather, Gu Yan, also seems to know the secret for the first time: "So there is this secret. Although Nian Qiu fell into the water and died unfortunately, but he met you and rescued the child, it was a coincidence."

He acted rationally as if he didn't hear what the old Taoist said, and didn't get to the bottom of it.

Gu Yao heard the old man calling him a boy, and remembering that the old man didn't know his name, he introduced himself immediately: "Grandpa, my name is Gu Yao, Yao of the Nine Heavens and Stars."

Then he looked at the old man and said, "Master, did my mother fall into the water and die?"

The old Taoist was silent for a moment: "Your mother was pregnant with you back then, and many people knew about it, so I didn't dare to bring her body back here, in case someone found that her stomach was gone, but after the knife wound was healed, Let the two meet for the last time, and then go to the ground."

"In order to make the two feel at ease, the situation at that time was not clearly stated."

Gu Yan smiled wryly: "Although the chief didn't say anything at the time, but after you broke into the Zhou mansion and killed several people, we also guessed that Nian Qiu's death might not have been an accident."

"It's not that simple. When I found her, her shoulder was pierced by something, she was bleeding profusely, and there were countless small wounds on her body, like needle pricks. I guess she was hunted down by some kind of ghost, and she had to jump into the river to survive. "

The old Taoist's face was calm: "Although I killed the heads of the Zhou family after that, I didn't find any ghosts. Later, in order to prevent the Gu family from being affected, I beat Dunjing Yesi and left after revealing my identity."

"I just heard you talking about City God. This might be the ghost I killed."

Gu Yao looked at the old man and said, "Isn't the city god a righteous god conferred by Da Zhou? How could it be a ghost? And why did you want to kill my mother for the Zhou family?"

The old man sneered: "That's very interesting. When I was here, the Town God's Temple was empty. Although the incense was constantly burning, no one could bear it."

"It seems that I lost my sight back then. This Zhou family is very powerful, and there are experts behind it."

The God of the City God is different from the God of the Mountain. They are registered in the Great Zhou Dynasty. If there is a Temple of the City God in every place, a grand ceremony will be held to invite the City God into the city.

Most of these city gods are locals, most of whom are dead heroes or famous ministers.

However, there were not many city gods in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there were only some in the Jiangnan area, and there were no Guangling Mansions.

After sitting here for a while, seeing the place gradually getting busy, the old man got up to say goodbye.

"Where are you going now? The Zhou family?"

"You should choose to kill people at night, so long enough, if you go in the daytime, you may enter the door with your front foot, and then you will arrive at the government office." The old Taoist passed on his experience, "It is also convenient to kill people at night, and you can even go around Go back and see if there are any murderers, and do some honest things during the day."

"Such as going to the Town God's Temple?"

"Yes, if there is something wrong with the City God, it won't matter if they fight during the day."

These experiences are worthless. How can I, a little Taoist priest who does good deeds and accumulates virtue, run to kill people at night?

Gu Yao glanced at the old man, interrupted him from continuing to teach Ye Hei Feng Gao Ye, and asked:

"Old man, what did you say before that you killed one of my own uncles?"

That's my uncle.

The kind that can cause accidents if you shave your head in the first month.

The old Taoist stopped: "When I found your mother, your uncle was hiding in the dark and watching. I picked her up and searched for his soul, so I didn't know the whole story."

"He was bought by the Zhou family?"

"Almost, your grandmother promised him that he would marry a daughter to him, as long as he tricked your mother into the Town God's Temple that night."

"That person, you just said that the poisonous woman of the Zhou family, don't call me grandmother, it's disgusting, and, didn't you tell my grandpa about this?"

The old man said with a cold face: "Speaking of such things will only make him sad, so I told him that he rushed to Zhou's house to ask for an explanation for your mother, but unfortunately died."

"Although it gave him a good reputation, at least your grandfather can feel better. Otherwise, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear the truth."

The old man continued walking, looking at the direction, he was going to the middle of the city.

Walking like this, passing by Caishikou in Luzhou, seeing countless arrest warrants posted on the side of the road, Gu Yao suddenly became curious: "Old man, you have committed so many things, why haven't I seen your arrest warrant?"

"I was hanged in Lin'an Mansion before, but someone who was not afraid of death followed the news all the way to Gezao Mountain."

"The results of it?"

"The man who posted the wanted notice was charged with premeditated murder and removed from office."

The corner of Gu Yao's mouth twitched.

Speaking of Gezao Mountain, he remembered something he had almost forgotten, and hurriedly asked: "Old man, Gezao Mountain said that a person who looked like you died there a hundred years ago, what happened?" ?”

"That's my junior brother. He came out to do something outrageous. He always put his face on me, and when he died, he also put his face on me. This is one of the reasons why there is no arrest warrant for me."

"Then who did you stand up to when you were shameless back then?"

Before Gu Yao finished speaking, the old man suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand and slapped the air forward: "It's a good trick, is Luzhou Jingyesi a waste?"

"what happened?"

"look by youself."

Gu Yao looked forward, and it turned out that he could already see the Temple of the City God.

The Town God's Temple faces south, stands in the middle of the river, and is surrounded by water. If you want to enter the temple, you can only enter from the south by crossing the bridge.

The red bricks and golden tiles look majestic, but the stone beast on the roof is a strange bird, which makes people feel ominous.

Taking a closer look, Gu Yao didn't notice anything wrong, except for the strange bird on the roof, it seemed to be quite normal.

Looking sideways at the old man, he had already wrapped the white bead around his fist.

"Old man, didn't I see anything?"

"Don't just look at the Town God's Temple, you have to look at it with the surrounding Fengshui. Some people use the river to gather all the bad luck in the city here, and then use the Town God's Temple to lock it up. This is raising ghosts under the noses of so many people."

The old Taoist turned his wrist and walked towards the bridge with a murderous look.

Gu Yao stood on the spot and carefully looked at the Feng Shui pattern around him.

Nothing could be seen.

He is very knowledgeable about Fengshui Qimen and so on.

Seeing that the old man had already crossed the bridge, he hurried to catch up.

Although this Town God's Temple is located in the center of the city, it is very deserted, and there seems to be no one to visit. The two entered the temple, although they could see the incense burning very well, but they didn't see anyone.

The old Taoist wandered around the temple for a few times, then returned to the statue of the City God, looked up at the statue and said, "It's so brave."

"Old man, what's going on? I didn't find anything?"

Gu Yao also leaned over, the temple was very cool, but he looked around with the technique of seclusion, but he didn't find any ghosts.

"Could it be that this ghost has become a god?"

"It's not wrong to say that."

"what?"

The old man raised his hand, and the heavy door slammed together with a bang, closing the place.

"They are all of the same class, Ye Mao, why don't you come out and meet?" He said in a loud voice.

No one answered.

"Gu Yao, I don't seem to have taught you how to deal with God, have I?"

"Well, I haven't taught it."

The old Taoist nodded: "It's actually quite simple. Gods need something to rely on. Except for Lu Baihou, all the gods have a core. Once touched, it will be very fragile."

While speaking, he raised a finger and made a friendly gesture to the statue: "Got it?"

"clear."

Gu Yao shot out a ball of flames and hit the statue.

"Gee chi chi."

At the moment when the flames gushed out, countless black birds flew down from the beams of the house, flying over fearlessly and pounced on the flames.

In just a split second, the flame was extinguished by the bird with its body, and the ashes fell all over the ground.

The remaining countless birds surrounded the two of them, twirling crazily, like a black tornado, surrounding the two of them, surrounded by noisy chirping sounds, Gu Yao was about to blow away the group of birds when suddenly there was a surprise cry.

"Zhou Lang, it's you!" (rough voice)

The sound seemed to be a signal, and the flock of little birds dispersed together and scattered everywhere.

Only then did Gu Yao realize that there was a monster with a bird's body and a bird's head in front of the statue of the City God. At this moment, a pair of dark eyes stared at the two of them.

"It's calling? Zhou Lang?" Gu Yao raised his hand and stared at it.

"Zhou Lang, I'm here."

Gu Yao couldn't get used to the sound. He looked around, and finally saw a man in a white robe hanging upside down on the beam of the statue.

Seeing that Gu Yao saw him, the man showed joy and fell down, but the strange thing was that he was on all fours with his butt facing up.

"Zhou Lang, is that you? Have you come to see me?"

After seeing the man's face clearly, Gu Yao's scalp tingled and hurriedly said: "You are looking for the wrong person, my surname is not Zhou."

This person's face seemed to be made out of a jigsaw puzzle, with two eyes, one with phoenix eyes and the other with almond eyes, but they were of different sizes and heights.

The nose is very tall and straight, but the bridge of the nose has already reached the forehead.

The small mouth of the cherry is beautiful, but crooked.

The two eyebrows turned up and down, which looked really weird.

"It's not Zhou, how is it possible? You look like him, and you also look like his son, his grandson, and his great-grandson."

As he was talking, he suddenly raised a hand and patted his head: "Ah, yes, Zhou Lang has already passed away. You are more like his great-grandson Zhou Jing. I just don't remember."

"What's your name Zhou? What's the matter here looking for my aunt?" He put down his hands, his face was pleasant, and his face twisted for a while, as if he wanted to smile kindly, but the facial features had different smiles, which made people creepy.

This is too much information.

"Who bullied you? Or made you unhappy?"

"Did the Gu family come out again? It's okay, my aunt will clean them up now."

As he said that, he turned around on the ground: "Go and clean up that Gu family tonight, and vent my anger on my precious great-grandfather and grandson."

It turned out that the Zhou family and the Chenghuang Temple really colluded, but what happened to this thing?

Gu Yao watched the man turn around again, stretched out a hand to grab his hand, couldn't help it, and kicked him flying, with thunder in his hand, ready to strike.

The monster in front of the City God Statue also spread its wings, ready to move, and the air in the hall was surging, but the man stopped it the next moment.

"My great-grandson, why did you hit me? Is it because my aunt made you angry?"

"Tell me, tell me, what do you want, tell my aunt, my aunt will definitely move it."

The man hit the ground with his back, struggled and twisted and turned over, but he didn't get angry, instead he crawled back pitifully.

He looks like a dog.

Seeing him lying on the ground with a pitiful fawning appearance, Gu Yao suddenly felt that this person was very pitiful.

Dispersing the thunder and lightning, he glanced at the old man, asking how to deal with it.

"What's your name?"

The man glanced at the old man, and said in a cold voice: "Who are you? Are you the servant of my obedient great-grandson? You are too ugly."

"Forget it, you can call me Mrs. Bai."

Then he looked at Gu Yao again, and flattered him: "Where did my aunt make you angry? You say what you say, and I will change it when you say it."

Gu Yao sighed: "Tell me about you, and about the Zhou family."

"Okay, okay." The man nodded hurriedly, and the group of birds flew up, moved a chair from nowhere, and put it behind Gu Yao, "Sit down, sit down, what do you want to eat and drink?"

"No need, just tell me."

Gu Yao frowned. This person seemed to have been brainwashed by the Zhou family, and he became the dog of the Zhou family.

He lay on the ground, lost in memory: "Back then, Zhou Lang and I went to Chang'an for scientific research, and we traveled all the way to the mountains and rivers, and we were in love with each other."

Gu Yao: "...As expected."

"In Lanruo Temple outside the barren mountain, we encountered ghosts and were deluded. We thought it would be a disaster, but we didn't expect to let us."

Just listening, Gu Yao suddenly remembered something: "Zhang Sheng and his fellow countrymen stayed overnight at Lanruo Temple, met fairies, climbed to the fairyland, and shared bliss. Bloody, unable to walk."

I took a deep breath at the moment, according to the records of the ancestors of the Hou family, Zhang Sheng was actually my ancestor.
