Chapter 26: The Gate's Treasure
The two men in suits put me on a stretcher and pushed me into the car without saying a word.
The ambulance sped along with its sirens blaring. Although it was going very fast, the interior was very stable.
Mao Xueying sat next to me, picked up a towel and gently wiped my face. She asked in confusion.
"In fact, you can just give up on that place. Why are you trying so hard?"
I smiled bitterly. Who is willing to risk their lives? I have to take care of this matter! First of all, there is Zhou Yan, the future sister-in-law, and my cousin is working here. Secondly, I don’t know about this evil spirit. The Nine-turn Trapped Evil Array has six array eyes. If the evil array is completed, there will be no grass growing in this area of more than ten miles!
"Alas!" I sighed and said helplessly, "I'm just doing what I should do. After all, I've encountered this situation. If I don't do it, I won't be able to get over it in the future!"
Mao Xueying looked at me as if she was meeting me for the first time.
"Ni Ge, do you still remember the first time we met in Xiangyuan County? Why didn't you express your opinion when I asked you to help me?"
"That time! You always throw money at me. We are not from the same world. How can I help you? Haha. Your Majesty, are you here to understand the people's feelings?"
Thinking of that meeting, Mao Xueying's cold and beautiful face, her queen-like demeanor, the corners of my mouth could not help but curl up, and I laughed and said something.
Mao Xueying suddenly stopped talking, and the carriage fell into silence.
I immediately felt a little regretful. It was obvious that Mao Xueying was taking care of me during this hospitalization. For Mao Xueying's status, I'm afraid that even drinking water at home would be brought to me by someone. But I was lucky enough to be taken care of by him. It would be a lie to say that I was not touched. Did Meng Lang's joke make Mao Xueying unhappy?
"That, that!??????" I suddenly hated my mouth. I was good at causing trouble, but how could I face Mao Xueying? I kept saying that for a long time but there was no more to say. My face turned red.
"Haha, you should have a good rest! I'm fine. But I took care of you for three days, which is not in the contract, so you owe me three days. I want you to pay me back for these three days."
Mao Xueying suddenly smiled and looked at me and said very seriously.
"Uh! How about I take care of you for three days while you're in the hospital?"
My heart skipped a beat. This Mao Xueying is so clever. Three days! What kind of excessive demands did she make during these three days? Could she agree to it even if I had to be a servant? Thinking of this, I quickly set an acceptable limit for these three days.
But the idea is perfect, the reality is cruel.
Mao Xueying's eyes flashed with a smile, and the corners of her mouth revealed an undisguised cunning. She looked at my panicked look with great admiration.
"You owe me three days. Don't you people who practice metaphysics believe in cause and effect? That is to say, if I don't agree, you have no right to discuss how to pay me back. So during these three days, I will think carefully about how to make you pay me back."
It's true. I feel like a little white rabbit caught in a trap. But outside the trap is a hunter who is so beautiful!
Fortunately, this torture ended soon. The ambulance stopped and two men in suits carried a stretcher and carefully carried me to the bedroom.
I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep until I was the only one left in the bedroom.
I am powerless to change the situation as I owe Mao Xueying the three days' appointment. I just hope that Mao Xueying will not make any excessive demands during these three days.
Now, I just want to recover my spiritual power quickly. Tomorrow is the day when the Youth Metaphysics Discussion Meeting will begin. The Righteousness Stone can help me quickly break through to the third-grade metaphysical master. I think I have been stuck in the third grade for some time. Unfortunately, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is thin. Even this last step requires years of accumulation.
I pinched my fingers, cleared my mind, and soon I reached a state of selflessness. This extremely yin place has a strong innate yin spirit. Coupled with the five elements magic array, yin and yang complement each other. For me, this is simply a holy place for cultivation and healing.
The Youth Metaphysics Discussion Meeting was held in the back mountain of the Dongmen Metaphysics Society.
What surprised me was that the road leading to the back mountain was full of police officers maintaining order.
"Brother Ni, this is quite a big event, isn't it? This discussion meeting is held every three years. The government is also very supportive of our gathering. However, ordinary people who can enter the back mountain must be either rich or noble."
Zheng Qihuai walked side by side with me, looking very cocky.
I smiled and nodded, agreeing with Zheng Qihuai's words.
"Ni Ge, are all the people participating here the same as you?"
Mao Xueying was waiting at the door early in the morning and came to the Metaphysics Society with me. At this time, she was curiously looking at the pedestrians on the road.
"Haha, most of them." I responded with a smile. Along the way, most of the people passing by were people with spiritual power fluctuations. There were not many young people, but they all looked very arrogant. And there were also some older people around them.
"President Zheng! Hehehe."
As they were talking, a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a long gown, walked over with square steps and a smile on his face.
"Oh, it's Fellow Daoist Zhuzhichong." Zheng Qihuai put away his cynical look and put on a confessional look, and at this moment he really had some aura.
"Haha, this is a grand event held every three years. To be honest, it has been difficult for the Dongmen Metaphysical Society over the past decade. Every time as the host, they have to present a magical instrument. This time, they actually got a Buddhist magical instrument. I really admire them!"
After hearing what Zhu Zhichong said, Zheng Qihuai's old face suddenly became ugly. For so many years, the Dongmen Xuanxue Society has been like a joke. Every time it is the last one. Naturally, colleagues in other provincial capitals often make fun of it.
However, Zheng Qihuai's face was also tempered by thousands of trials and tribulations. It returned to its original state in an instant, and he smiled very brightly and said, "Things are different now. This time, my East Gate District also has some better seedlings for the metaphysics discussion. As for Taoist Zhu, you have been ranked fourth for several years in a row. I often feel sorry for you! Every time I hear others call you the eternal fourth, I feel angry. In fact, with the excellence of Taoist's disciples, although they are not as good as the masters of the Northern School in Beijing, it is not bad to get second place. Shouldn't they be the eternal second?"
Puff! I almost got a stitch in the side. Zheng Qihuai's mouth is really sharp!
"How do you talk like that!"
Zhu Zhichong had an unpleasant look on his face, but he didn't say anything. Instead, a man in his thirties behind him jumped out.
"Oh, the eternal fourth has come out! But you are already over 30 years old, so you are not eligible this year. What a pity, what a pity!" Zheng Qihuai smiled, and suddenly his momentum suddenly surged. In an instant, he pressed towards the eternal fourth opposite.
The fourth oldest who had been so arrogant just now now turned pale and retreated more than ten steps.
"Enough! Old man Zheng, you are so shameless that you bully the younger generation!" Zhu Zhichong stood sideways to block in front.
"Hehe. This bastard still knows that he is a junior. He dares to jump around instead of kneeling down to kowtow to his grandfather. Besides, I bullied him in the market. Did you see me fight? Why do you want to fight with me? Hehe, I, an old man, haven't stretched my muscles for a long time."
Zheng Qihuai stared at Zhuzhi Chong with a look of disgust, and raised his hands lightly with clenched fists.
"Hmph, Guan Hu, let's go!"
Zhu Zhichong's face suddenly changed. Facing Zheng Qihuai, Zhu Zhichong really had no confidence. Although the talent of this Dong Xuan Society was dwindling, the two old guys Zheng Qihuai and Wu Zhidao were really capable.
"Let's go! What tiger? It's a cat! Hahahaha."
Looking at the backs of Master Zhuzhichong and his disciple, Zheng Qihuai smiled happily.
"Brother Zheng, what are the origins of Zhuzhi Chong and Guan Hu?" I asked curiously.
"What a bullshit background, he is just a master of the Changfan City Metaphysics Society. This Guan Hu is considered to have some talent in the previous Metaphysics Society, but he has always been ranked fourth, which is also a joke!"
I frowned and shook my head: "Brother Zheng, when I saw Guan Hu today, there was a hint of evil spirit between his eyebrows. The fluctuation of spiritual power was very strong. However, Guan Hu's face was ruddy and his breath was very peaceful. The six palaces were peaceful. It seemed that he actively absorbed this evil spirit."
"Now that you mention it, I remember that I originally thought this kid was a bad guy. Now it seems that he is just eager for quick success."
Zheng Qihuai said with a look of regret.
The so-called "Chongsha" means being entangled by evil spirits. Evil spirits are free between heaven and earth and are one of the most difficult things to deal with. Ghosts and filth like evil spirits the most. However, actively cultivating to absorb evil spirits is against the way of heaven.
First of all, the human body is a very fragile individual, and it is important to be moderate and peaceful. The evil spirit is extremely cold and will naturally cause the body to decay and the five palaces to darken when it enters the human body. Secondly, the evil spirit is evil and filthy. If a cultivator absorbs the evil spirit, it is equivalent to stepping into the evil path. This is unacceptable to heaven, and even heaven will be angry.
People who are infected with evil spirits will have bad luck and suffer constant disasters, and those who actively absorb it will be in even greater danger.
The venue of the conference is in the basin behind the mountain. The basin is several thousand square meters in area. The terrain is flat and the ground is paved with bluestone.
"Brother, how about the location of this meeting place?"
I glanced at the complacent Zheng Qihuai, looked around, and couldn't help but sigh.
"This basin is peaceful in the middle. The terrain is flat and full of vitality. If it were in the ancient times when spiritual energy was abundant, it would have been a blessed land. It is surrounded by mountains and the entrance is in the south. The Azure Dragon soars into the clouds. The White Tiger lies down to rest. The Black Tortoise pokes its head out and the Vermillion Bird is beautiful! What a blessed land! If the ancestors are buried here, the descendants will surely be rich and powerful. This fortune will last for a thousand years."
“Hehehe.” Zheng Qihuai smiled proudly and said, “Brother, you have good eyesight. This place was actually the sect of Tianzheng Dao in the earliest times. Although the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is thin now, this blessed land is still the treasure of my East Gate.”
