When I was a Taoist

Chapter 69
"Dazhi, Fanchen, you two, don't just stare at him!"

Seeing our surprised expressions, Taoist Xuanyuan knocked on our heads and said in a low voice: "Do you know who he is? He is..."

"Senior Xuanyuan, right? These two little guys are quite interesting. It's the first time I've met a child who isn't afraid of me."

The young man smiled, interrupted Taoist Xuanyuan, and then looked at Fan Chen and me.Only then did I realize to my astonishment that the young man's eyes were hidden in black and white, just like Tai Chi!
"Hehe, the two of them are my apprentices, they are ignorant, please don't blame me." Taoist Xuanyuan laughed, and at the same time gave the two of us a hard look, wanting us to learn some etiquette.But now Fan Chen and I are deeply attracted by young people, how can we have the mood to look at Taoist Xuanyuan's eyes?

"One has excellent spiritual sense, the other has excellent muscles and bones, and both of them are talented little guys. Senior Xuanyuan, you took a big deal." The young man smiled at us, and then said: "Introduce yourself , my surname is Shangguan, you can call me Shangguan Mu."

"Shangguanmu?"

When Fan Chen and I were still pondering over this name in our minds, Li Mingxuan stared suddenly and exclaimed, "You are the genius elder from the headquarters of the Daoist Society, Shangguanmu?"

"I don't dare to be a genius. Since I'm sitting in this position, I must do my best for the Daohui." Shangguanmu waved his hand and said with a smile.

Seeing that Fan Chen and I were still in a daze, Taoist Xuanyuan sighed and explained in a low voice: "Shangguanmu is the youngest elder in the history of the Taoist Society. His talent is so enchanting that people can't speak. It's not even half of him. Bai Qi and Meng Yi can easily be conquered by himself when he was a teenager."

At the beginning, I didn't have any idea about his description of Shangguanmu. At most, I thought he was just a Taoist priest with good talent.But after hearing the last sentence, I realized how terrible this young man was.

Taking a deep breath, I asked weakly, "Senior, how old is he this year?"

"Little guy, I won't tell others my age easily."

Shangguanmu gave me a gentle smile, then bent down, and whispered in my ear: "I am only 40 years old this year. If you practice hard, your future achievements will definitely be better than mine!"

After finishing speaking, Shangguanmu straightened up and blinked at me.If I didn't know his identity, I'm afraid I would directly regard him as a gentle big brother.

"The 40-year-old has the face of a 20-year-old, and his strength can easily change his appearance." I smacked my lips and said with emotion.

"Okay, the reminiscence is over, now let me solve the remaining troubles."

After finishing speaking, Shangguanmu shifted his gaze to Bai Qi and Meng Yi, and said coldly: "Since you two managed to sneak out of the underworld, you must have bought a lot of ghost messengers."

Bai Qi looked at Shangguanmu with horror in his eyes, pretended to be calm, and said in a low voice: "I advise you to let us go, otherwise you can't bear the consequences!"

"You dare to threaten me, Shangguanmu, just because you know a few ghost messengers. When I made troubles in the underworld, you two were just ordinary ghosts."

Shangguanmu rose into the air like in a martial arts movie, suspended in the air, looking at the two ghost generals with a stern expression.A white formation is rapidly gathering in front of him.

"You let us go, and I'll tell you the secret that interests you!"

From the white formation, Bai Qi and Meng Yi felt a fatal threat, and immediately begged for mercy.But Shangguanmu just shook his head, and said softly: "No need, if I want to know something, I can go to the underworld to question the judge myself."

After finishing speaking, Shangguan Mu pinched his fingers and shouted in a low voice: "Bai Lian's ghost formation, get up!"

With a flash of white light, a huge white lotus bloomed in front of Shangguanmu.Just looking at these many lotus flowers, I felt extremely strong heart palpitations.It seems that if I touch a little bit, I will be out of my wits.

"Don't look. This white lotus descending ghost formation is Shangguanmu's forte. It was used to subdue real thousand-year-old ghosts!" Taoist Xuanyuan hurriedly pushed my head down and said.

Later I learned that not when everyone dies, it means how many years they will become ghosts.Don't look at Bai Qi and Meng Yi as generals of the Qin Dynasty, but according to Taoist Xuanyuan's speculation, the two of them turned into fierce ghosts at most one or two hundred years ago, and only recently transformed into ghost generals.Otherwise, with his half-baked magical skills, it would be good enough not to be chased and beaten when encountering a thousand-year-old ghost, and it would not be possible to talk about suppressing it.

"This is the real divine method! Domineering, arrogant, as if no one is his opponent!" Taoist Xuanyuan looked at Shangguanmu with reverence, and said.

The huge white lotus bloomed slowly, and then a terrifying suction force erupted, attracting Bai Qi and Meng Yi.Even though the two of them resisted desperately, the actual gap was too great, and they could only watch helplessly as they were sucked into the lotus.

Originally I thought it was an earth-shattering battle, but Shangguanmu easily solved the ghost general that gave us such a headache.The white lotus finally turned into a real flower half the size of a palm, inside which were sealed two ghost generals.

Put away the lotus, and wave Shangguan's wooden sleeve robe, and the resurrected soldiers in the maze turned into real corpses, never to be resurrected again.

This catastrophe was resolved lightly by Shangguanmu.At this time, I couldn't help complaining, if the Taoist Association sent such a master from the beginning, there would be so many troubles later.

As if seeing my small thoughts, Shangguanmu smiled lightly, and explained: "The headquarters of the Daohui pays attention to the situation of all branches in the entire Huaxia Kingdom, and will not use power because of troubles in a certain branch. And the headquarters of the headquarters Members have their own missions, and I happened to pass by West City, so I discovered the strong ghostly aura here."

The trouble this time was completely resolved, and Shangguanmu also planned to go to the underworld to find out why Bai Qimeng Yi escaped from the underworld.Before leaving, he glanced at Fan Chen and me, and said, "You two are rare seedlings, do you plan to join the Daoist Association headquarters in the future?"

Hearing this, Fanchen and I nodded hastily without any hesitation.The headquarters of the Taoist Society is a sacred place in the eyes of every Taoist priest, there is no reason why he does not want to join.

Shangguanmu nodded in satisfaction, and then flicked his fingers, two white lights fell on our hands respectively: "This is a gift from me to you two, and it is an investment in you two. Daohui needs Fresh blood like you joins in, and when you meet the qualifications, I will come to you personally."
