Celestial Immortal

Chapter 372
Zhou Zi bowed deeply to Chu Chen respectfully, and thanked him:
"Lansheng has seen the old fairy!"

Chu Chen waved his hand: "I'm not an old god, I'm just a wandering cultivator."

Zhou Zijing is a scholar, not an uninformed countryman, he also has a certain understanding of the world of practice, so he naturally knows the common sense that "immortals, true gods and Buddhas do not descend from the world".

The reason why he called "Old Immortal" was simply to express his inner gratitude.

He knows very well that trading with Yunwu Ghost City is seeking skin from a tiger, and if he is not careful, he will fall into the enemy's hands and end in misery.

"Senior, in the eyes of Wan Sheng, you are a living god who saves people from suffering!"

"Everything is predestined, so there is no need to worry too much."

Chu Chen smiled, and did not correct the other party, but asked casually:

"What? Why didn't you go to Goulan to listen to the music with your classmates? Could it be that you redeemed your sweetheart back home?"

That day, after Chu Chen wiped out the first Yunwu Ghost City stronghold, he gave the people present what they were asking for, and gave them a chance to get out of the sea of ​​suffering and go ashore to start again.

Scholar Zhou Zijing is no exception.

Zhou Zijing's face flushed slightly. Before, everyone was "the same degenerate people at the end of the world", and he was facing a group of strangers again. He didn't care at all when he talked about going to the bar to listen to the music.

But in front of him was a well-rounded man, he respected him, and he didn't dare to be frivolous in the slightest.

"Senior joked, the late-born prodigal son turned around, no longer wandering in Huajie and Liuxiang, inspired to read the imperial examination, and get a title on the gold list!"

Chu Chen was a little surprised.

"You don't want that brothel friend anymore?"

The scholar Zhou Zijing became more and more embarrassed, he hesitated and told his past events one by one.

It turned out that after Zhou Zijing got the money back, he immediately went to the brothel to redeem the man.

But who would have imagined that the girl in the brothel learned about him from nowhere, knew that his family was not rich, and owed a lot of debts, and his studies also plummeted.

No matter how she looked at it, she couldn't see any future or future in Zhou Zijing.

So, on the day when Zhou Zijing came to redeem him, what he was waiting for was not the joy of his sweetheart, but indifference and even cruel words.

Afterwards, Zhou Zijing came to his senses, stopped playing and devoted himself to studying.

"Yes, Ruzi can be taught!"

Chu Chen's "old man" stroked his beard with emotion, and he had the demeanor of a master of Taoism.

Zhou Zijing was delighted to see the senior man praise himself, but he bowed deeply again and said:
"Thank you so much, senior. That day, I was depressed. I thought it would be all over, but I suddenly remembered that senior descended from the sky to help people. I just woke up at a late age. The world is vast. How can I be fascinated by the love of my children."

Speaking of this, Zhou Zijing's eyes were full of longing, as if he was quite interested in the world of practice.

"Senior, I don't know your surname, where do you practice? Can you tell this junior about the practice world?"

When Chu Chen heard the words, his mind moved.

This time, he came to find the "old, middle and young" three people, on the one hand to see that they did not "go ashore" to start a new life, on the other hand, he wanted to use the mouth of the three to announce his "contributions" to the public.

Thinking of this, Chu Chen stroked his beard and smiled, saying:
"Young man, you really are keen on cultivating immortals, but the world of cultivating immortals is not as good as you imagined."

After speaking, Chu Chen started the purpose of this trip - to tell a story.

"Take the previous Yunwu Ghost City as an example. I'm afraid you don't know the dirty things behind it!"

"The cloud ghost market is full of demons and goblins, and then borrows, pawns, gambling houses and other transactions to plunder people's life, energy, and fortune. You have seen this with your own eyes, so there is no need for old people to repeat it."

Zhou Zijing nodded again and again, with lingering fear in his heart:

"They took advantage of the fire to rob, and although they didn't directly kill our people, they actually did more. Once they fall, not only will their lives be lost, but their souls may even be scattered. They are more terrifying than crippled wolves, tigers, and leopards. They cannibalize people without spitting out their bones! "

"The demons use the people as their food, that's nothing."

Chu Chen commented lightly:
"The bull ghosts and snake gods in Yunwu Ghost City are just one of them. The real scourge is Yunwu Lake God, Yunzhi Empress. She practiced magic arts and went astray. She hooked up with local ghosts and gods. , Lending money wantonly, forcing the common people to the cloud and fog ghost market.”

"The Yunwu ghost market extracts the people's life, essence, and fortune, and offers them to Yunzhi Empress. All these actions lead to the decline of Yunlin's local country's luck and people's thoughts."

Chu Chen explained the case of "Yunwu Ghost City".

Hearing this, Zhou Zijing was in a cold sweat, with lingering fears in his heart. In the end, his eyes were full of admiration and gratitude.

"Demons, ghosts and gods are really insidious! Thanks to someone like you who secretly saves the world and rescues people in need, senior, you haven't said your name yet, where is your immortal residence, I will definitely make a name for you later."

After finishing speaking, Zhou Zijing seemed to have thought of something, and immediately waved his hand and said:
"No, no, it's because Wansheng is too vulgar. You are such a noble person, you are indifferent to fame and fortune, how can you pursue worldly fame and fortune? Don't worry, Wansheng will never reveal your identity to outsiders!"

Chu Chen: "."

He was almost suffocated internally by the scholar in front of him.

This old man is really not an expert in the world, he only loves worldly fame and wealth!

coughed.

Chu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and said inscrutablely, "In the Yunlin Ghost City case, I just followed orders, and the real credit is not mine!"

"Senior, what do you mean that day in Yunwughost City, you didn't bump into Zhengyi to make a move by chance, but acted according to orders?"

Zhou Zijing was quite surprised.

Chu Chen looked stern, clasped his fists and bowed in the direction of Yunlin County Ghost and God Division:
"The old man was ordered by the county governor Chuchen to investigate the Yunwu Ghost City. This time, the Yunzhi Empress was killed, the Yunwu Ghost City was destroyed, and even the local tycoons were destroyed. Behind all these incidents, it is the Chu Governor who is aware of the details and strategizing."

A certain kid who secretly observed: "(°ー°〃)"

"The real hero is Chu Du Guan. If you want to make a name for yourself, do it for Chu Du Guan. This old man is only ordered by Du Guan to take credit!"

After another chat, Chu Chen left the city in a hurry to go to the home of the "old man in Guizhou head" and the "middle-aged man" for "home visits".

Those two also successfully "disembarked" and lived a normal life.

Chu Chen was relieved, and followed the same pattern, and through the mouth of the incarnation of the "mountain woodcutter", he returned all the "merit" to the deity, and comprehended the subsequent changes in Dao Qi.
After some incidents, Chu Chen sealed the [People's Letter Seal] and restored his real body.

Seeing that the senior brother was done with his work, the little ghost also showed up, looking at Chu Chen with admiration.

"Brother, you are too powerful!"

Chu Chen was dumb: "Little ghost, why did you say that?"

"Senior brother, I just found out today that I can still show my holiness in front of people like this, I have realized it!"

Chu Chen: "."

What did you realize?
