! ”

"That……"

"Ah...Master Shizhen." Lin Yuan cried out when he saw the figure behind Minghe.

Minghe closed his eyes, "Guard Master Shiyun... Shizhen?" Your master?

He didn't understand why Lin Yuan was always getting involved with some troublesome people.

The master of Shiyun Temple, Shizhen, is undoubtedly a truly capable person with great ability, but... that kind of troublesome past... At this moment, Shiyun Temple can still be included as an invited party of the Daoist and Buddha Conference, it is only in the past That's all leftover power.

However, it is impossible for him to speak ill of his teacher in front of Lin Yuan.

"Although the little monk has something to do, he happened to be traveling with the two benefactors." Ming He took the jade token from Lin Yuan's hand, "If you can, please follow me!"

Maybe he can vaguely remind Lin Yuan's benefactor...

…………

Ming He brought Lin Yuan and Master to the courtyard near the edge, and his brows frowned slightly. Even he didn't know that there was such a remote place in the Buddhist Sect.

"This... If not, let the little monk help you exchange a house card!"

"Although this location is a bit remote, it is better than quiet."

Shizhen rejected Minghe's proposal with a smile, and calmly looked at the courtyard in front of him, "It's not too old, and compared to the previous treatment, it's not bad."

Lin Yuan also remained silent, as if he thought what Master Shizhen said was right, this place is not too dilapidated, at least within the acceptable range.

Minghe secretly sighed, wrote down Lin Yuan's house number, and was going to try to change Lin Yuan's living location after finishing what Master ordered.

"If nothing happens, the little monk will go."

"Thank you, Master Minghe."

Hearing Lin Yuan's voice, Ming He felt a little dazed, and said the exact same words as that night - "I still can't be called 'Master'."

"Why do you care so much!" Lin Yuan shrugged casually, patted Minghe's shoulder familiarly, and took a step across, closing the distance between the little monk Minghe and himself, "It's just a title, it's just a title, you and I They are all old acquaintances, and they are so rigid and polite."

Ming He looked at Lin Yuan's fully opened face, which was close at hand, and the inner demon almost roared towards him, forcing Ming He to back away in a hurry to avoid Lin Yuan's gaze.

"Young monk still has something important to do, so let's go."

Minghe almost escaped from the courtyard in a state of embarrassment. When he crossed the threshold, he suddenly remembered something——"Benefactor Lin Yuan, you should be more careful these days! Shi Zhenren is very capable, and he is not afraid of Xiaoxiao, you... other orthodox sect parties Shi Yunguan's attitude is always not very good..."

…………

Lin Yuan looked at Minghe's figure fleeing in embarrassment, and doubts slowly arose in his heart, and he looked back at his master who was at ease—"What the little monk Minghe said about 'Shiyun Temple is not favored by other orthodox sects' What's going on?"

Shi Zhen seemed to be caught in some kind of hard-to-extricate memory, and he didn't answer Lin Yuan's words directly, but just perfunctory, "When the time is up, you will know, if the master doesn't tell you, someone else will always tell you .”

Seeing that Master Shizhen was not very willing to bring up the past, Lin Yuan stopped asking, chose a side room, and began to meditate...

Although there is no way to improve his cultivation base without Yan Jingjun's ghostly aura, he has long developed the habit of cultivating without incident...

…………

The venue of the Taoist-Buddhist Conference was indeed lively.

Although it is a grand gathering among ascetics, it is not much different from the gathering of ordinary mortals.

Lin Yuan and Taoist Shizhen almost came late - after all, there is a rule of prohibiting flying in the sky in the Buddhist sect, and the courtyard where they live is ridiculously remote, so it's not surprising that they came late.

"There are so many people!" Lin Yuan frowned slightly, looking at the ascetics on the inner three floors and the outer three floors, "Can't you see everything like this?"

"Shiyun Temple has its own viewing platform, although the location is not good." Shi Zhen frowned tightly. Although he described himself as a good tempered person, he couldn't suppress the feeling of anger when thinking about the next thing—— It's not that he is still a first-class master in this cultivation world, this stand must be cancelled by those people.

"You come with me."

…………

"Did you think that Shiyun Guan was still the 'outstanding show' this year? Didn't you expect Shiyun to be so experienced? Did you accept disciples? It's really strange that there are still people willing to worship Shiyun Guan... After 100 years After that incident many years ago."

The person who spoke seemed to be a powerful figure in Jianzong—the reason for Lin Yuan's judgment was very simple, because Ling Xuan was standing behind the old man.

"The disciples of the sect have fallen into the devil way, and it's okay to be in the same rank with the devil's sect... The disciple who has fallen into the devil has repeatedly missed, and let the righteous disciples be slaughtered by the devil..."

"And even my own sect was slaughtered by that enchanted disciple until only one person remained..."

"By the way... I'm so disrespectful... Disrespectful... Fellow Daoist Shizhen probably survived because you are the senior brother of the devil, and you were born secretly from the devil's hand!"

Lin Yuan listened to the discussions of the people around him, his eyes dimmed, and he suppressed his urge to cut these bad guys into pieces, and looked back at his master...

but……

Is it because of Master's younger brother...?

☆、Sky Demon Fox King

When Lin Yuan followed Shizhen Taoist to participate in the Daoist Conference, the valley that had been quiet for 8 years suddenly welcomed a strange guest.

It was supposed to be a secret shielded place that would not be found by anyone unrelated...

…………

Standing in front of the empty valley are a group of white-clothed sedan chair bearers and...a single-person sedan chair in bright red and vermilion paint.

"Just stop in front of the valley ahead."

It was a voice that was so pleasant that it didn't sound like a human being, but with the illusory feeling in the voice, it made the person in the sedan chair more unusual than ordinary human beings.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

A group of white-clothed men carrying the sedan chair obeyed the wishes of the occupants, and placed the vermilion-colored sedan chair among the withered and yellow leaves.

White and slender fingers stretched out from one side of the vermilion curtain, lifting the vermilion curtain of light gauze.

The appearance of the person in the sedan chair is unimaginable. When you look at him, you may be beyond amazing, but when you move your eyes away, you will find that no matter how hard you try to recall, it is impossible for you to remember. Half of that astonishing appearance - it is unimaginably beautiful, unless it is right in front of your eyes, no one can imagine that amazing and peerless beauty!

The face of the person in the sedan chair was astonishing, and his posture and posture were also impeccably perfect.

As long as that plain white figure stands quietly between the heaven and the earth, everything will lose its color, which is incomparable.

"Just wait here!"

The plain figure lightly ordered a group of sedan chair bearers, turned around and accurately stepped into the valley entrance a hundred meters away.

To cross a distance of more than [-] meters in an instant - there is no doubt that it is a wonderful way to shrink the ground into an inch.

The strength of the "human" will certainly not be so weak - at least he is also a strong man whose cultivation base is comparable to that of the Mahayana period.

……

Some strangers have entered the valley.

Yan Jingjun tapped his half-realized body, and could not help frowning when he sensed the situation in the valley with the luck of the ghost emperor—he was not in a hurry to move the luck of the ghost emperor hidden in the belly of the mountain. The ghost emperor's luck should still be shielding and confusing the secrets, so how could a stranger find this place, and based on the posture of that person walking straight to this cave, it is definitely not a coincidence of passing by.

It’s not just passing by, but I can find this place again…

Should that be 'associated person'...

Immortal energy and demonic energy are mixed and mixed - is it a monster who cultivates immortals?

That should be... a monster who is qualified to inherit the fate of the Demon Emperor!

Speaking of the word 'qualified'...

Thinking about this, Yan Jingjun has some guesses - if it is a monster who has inherited the fate of the demon emperor, he must have come here to seek an alliance.

After all, it has been a family of ghosts since ancient times.

In other words, except for the successor of the Immortal Emperor's Luck, the other successors of Luck can be regarded as alliances, but in terms of relationship, the relationship between the demon and ghost clans is much better than the relationship between other successors.

……

"The contemporary Sky Demon Fox King Bai Sui came to visit the successor of Ghost Emperor Qiyun."

Sky Demon Fox King White Marrow!

"I know Brother Gui is not physically condensed at the moment, although I can't communicate with this subordinate, it may not be difficult to hear what I say clearly."

Bai Sui stood rigorously and neatly, but his expression was relaxed and easy-going. Although there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, although it was only on his face, it was still so beautiful that it made people dizzy.

"In ancient times, Pan Zu opened the sky and established the world of adults. Later, in order to protect the peace of the human world, Pan Zu used himself as a pillar to support the human world. Although the human world became more stable as time went by, various cultivation powers They also came out of the world one after another, their strength far exceeding the limit of the human world, although the human world is supported by Pan Zu, but the collapse is only close at hand."

A mocking smile floated from the corner of Bai Sui's mouth, "Although Panzu is strong, he is also limited. In the end, in order to ensure the stability of the human world, he passed down three thousand ways. Apart from the human world, there are five categories: immortals, Buddhas, ghosts, demons, and demons. He also believed that each of the five categories corresponds to the five realms, and if one cultivates that Dharma door, one will undergo a catastrophe when one's power reaches the limit of the human world, and ascend to the realm corresponding to the Dharma door."

"At that time, Panzu's power had been greatly weakened. He only found the world's raw stones necessary to create the five realms, but he did not have enough power to fully form the five realms. Not completely."

"In the end, Pan Zu had to use his last strength to form the 'key' that can be compatible with the world—luck."

"The biggest difference between the incomplete five realms and the normally formed human realm lies in the incompleteness of its own heavenly way. It needs a part of the heavenly way formulated by man, that is to say, it needs the master of one realm."

"Having the qualifications to inherit luck, and inheriting the existence of complete luck, will be compatible with the realm, and open the realm that has been perfected by the master of heaven."

"Actually, Brother Gui also knows that after Pan Zu passed away, there is only one world that has been truly opened——that is the fairy world."

Bai Sui sighed, not disliking that the gravel and soil in Huanggu would stain his clothes, and sat down on the spot.

"The current Immortal Emperor, the World Master of the Immortal Realm, maintains his identity as a disciple of Panzu, and first gathered the Immortal Emperor's fortune to open the Immortal Realm."

"Lord, what a noble status, how could that narrow-minded immortal emperor allow others to have the same authority and power as him? The first thing he did after he became an immortal emperor was to closely monitor those who are qualified and qualified. Candidates who have the ability to take over from other world lords will get rid of them without hesitation when they feel threatened."

"No matter who it is, as long as they want to leave the human world to make themselves stronger and live longer, there must be only one choice—choose the method of cultivating immortals and ascend to the immortal world."

"That's right, when I didn't know that I was qualified to collect the demon emperor's luck, I had no choice but to learn nondescript fairy spells." Otherwise, there would be no mixture of immortal energy and demon energy on his body.

"In the human world, demons, ghosts, and demons are mixed among the crowd. God knows how much trouble it has brought to the world."

"For the human beings in the human world, but also for the three races of demons, ghosts, and demons who have nowhere to go."

When he said this, Bai Sui had already stood up from the ground, and bowed long towards the cave where Yan Jingjun was hiding.

"Brother Gui, please join hands with me to break the blockade of the Immortal Emperor and open the worlds of ghosts and demons at the same time."

After a long time, Bai Sui stood up straight.

"I know Brother Ghost can't answer right now, but Brother Ghost please come and see me after the retreat is over. Whether or not the covenant will be concluded will be discussed until then."

Bai Sui calmly walked to the cave where Yan Jingjun retreated, took out a piece of jade pendant and placed it in front of the cave.

"Brother Wang Gui must bring this token to the Demon King's Palace."

Of course, Bai Sui knew that Yan Jingjun, who was busy condensing his body, would not be able to give him a definite reply. After putting down the jade pendant, he no longer took this matter to heart, and turned and left the valley.

"Get up the sedan chair and go back to the Demon King's Palace."

…………

Make a covenant...?

Although Yan Jingjun is still refining the luck of the ghost emperor, his heart is no longer as calm as before.

☆, old ghost, ghost master

"Master, is this a group arena?" Lin Yuan looked at the fiery battle stage not far in front of him, feeling a little dumbfounded—he, he, he wouldn't want to stand on it like this stupidly Fight with strangers, so that the people below the stage can watch a monkey show! ?

"Why do you think so, you silly boy!" Shi Zhen didn't mind Lin Yuan's disrespectful behavior at all, perhaps because of the influence of his eccentric younger brother, he didn't think that only strict behavior was the right thing to do. It should be the demeanor of a cultivator, and there is nothing wrong with being free and easy.

"I don't even think about how many Nascent Souls can be produced under the age of a hundred? You are a genius if you can cultivate to the Golden Core Stage. Where can you find someone your age to fight with you in the ring? That's where you should go."

Lin Yuan looked in the direction Shizhen was pointing at, but only saw eight empty arenas, and his expression suddenly became puzzled, but before he could express his doubts, Shizhen first opened his mouth to explain to him—"You To be the master in that arena, let the cultivators challenge. Of course, the challengers will not be old monsters, but young cultivators under the age of 500. They will accept three challenges and win two. "

'Young' practitioners under 500 years old? !

Lin Yuan twitched the corners of his mouth, but he still didn't say anything strange—it's not easy for a practitioner to cultivate, it's just that he, a freak, cultivated a little faster.

"Master, how many days will this Daoist Conference be held? I don't think I have to stand on that ring every day!"

"That's not true. Every Nascent Soul cultivator under the age of 500 is divided into two groups. One group accepts three challenges in the arena and wins two games. The other group challenges the ring master during the Grand Competition. A person can challenge three times and win two games."

"Uh...however it sounds like it's worth being a challenger..."

Lin Yuan complained slightly, but when he turned around and saw Master Shizhen's slightly apologetic expression, he suddenly understood, it must be because of the incident more than a hundred years ago!

In any case, this kind of thing should draw lots to decide whether it is the champion or the challenger!

These practitioners have used their memory to be narrow-minded!

Lin Yuan rolled his eyes, jumped up, and floated onto one of the eight rings under a cloud of illusory ghostly aura.

"Don't worry! Master Shizhen, I will let those guys see that I, Shiyunguan, are not easy to bully."

Shi Zhen listened to the small voice pressed into a line by his ear, obviously it was a small sound of sound transmission, there was no big change on the surface, but the bottom of his heart seemed to be stable-this apprentice!

It is a blessing for him to have such an apprentice.

If he could see his junior brother again before crossing the catastrophe... Maybe he really has no regrets...

"Fellow Daoist Shizhen, the method used by your little apprentice seems to be quite similar to the cultivation method of my Ghost Control Sect!"

Shi Zhen was suddenly awakened from his thoughts by the voice beside him. Although he didn't use his spiritual sense to observe who was talking to him next to him, the immortal aura that was slightly different from most immortal cultivators was mixed with ghost aura. Zhen Yuan had already clearly told Shi Zhen that the person who was talking to him was—the master of the Ghost Control Sect, Li Jie.

"When I accepted this apprentice, he already had his own practice method, but I can assure you with Dao Xin that the child obtained this practice method through an adventure, and it has nothing to do with the Ghost Control Sect."

Shi Zhen frowned slightly. When he first saw Lin Yuan, he also doubted whether what Lin Yuan practiced was the magic technique of the Ghost Control Sect. After all, the two are really similar enough—they are also carried out with the help of ghost energy. Practicing, the true energy produced by cultivation will be mixed with ghost energy and so on.

In any case, if the child is determined to have learned his method secretly, at least his cultivation will be abolished, and at worst he will be killed directly.

"Since Fellow Daoist Shizhen has said so, then I can rest assured."

Li Jie seemed to be relieved, with an expression of "I really believe what you say", and his eyes moved away from the ring where Lin Yuan was standing, but Shi Zhen could clearly feel that Li Jie His divine sense had obviously surrounded the ring where Lin Yuan was standing.

Shi Zhen clenched his fist, he didn't quite understand why the master Li Jie suddenly targeted his disciples - Yu Guizong had no contact or friction with Shi Yunguan before - but, no matter what happened Whatever it is, he will definitely protect his apprentice, and will not let his apprentice be the same as his senior student...

Shi Zhen simply released his spiritual consciousness, surrounded Li Jie's spiritual consciousness, and was ready to rescue immediately if any accident happened.

"Ah! Master Shizhen, what a coincidence! My apprentice seems to have just chosen the ring that your apprentice is guarding!" Li Jie smiled and looked at the person who suddenly jumped into Lin Yuan's ring, with an invisible flash in his eyes. With a faint light, the curvature of the corner of the mouth became more obvious.

"What the hell do you want to do?"

"It's nothing, I just want to see the difference between the exercises practiced by the disciple and my ghost-controlling sect's exercises."

Shi Zhen suppressed his urge to fight, looked at Li Jie coldly, and slammed his sleeves, "If Sect Master Li is willing, please do as you please! But please don't hurt my disciples, otherwise I will Even if you fall into the devil's way, you have to kill the Yuguizong sect completely."

"Of course we won't hurt the Ling disciple."

Li Jie squinted at Shizhen, then turned his head to the ring, and watched carefully.

……

"Ghost Controlling Sect, Liu Shuo asks fellow Taoists for advice!"

Lin Yuan looked at the fairly square-looking 'young' cultivator standing in front of him, and returned a salute to him without changing his expression. He recalled the knowledge of cultivation that his master had given him, and after thinking for a long time, he finally learned from the box at the bottom of the box. I found an introduction about this sect in the corner.

When building the foundation, choose a ghost ghost that matches your own attributes, subdue it for your own use, and use the subdued ghost as a magic weapon to fight. The ghost energy is mixed in it, which makes the true essence impure. When crossing the catastrophe, the power of the catastrophe encountered is more than three times that of other cultivators, and almost no one succeeds in crossing the catastrophe...

"Shi Yunguan, Lin Yuan, please be merciful, fellow daoist!"

"Time Cloud View...?"

Liu Shuo's face was clearly puzzled, but he still didn't say much, and simply raised his hand.

As he raised his hand, a black shadow began to appear in the center of the arena. When the black shadow completely solidified, groups of astonishing black mist had completely surrounded the entire arena, making it impossible to see inside. Things that happened.

"Sect Master Li Jie, what's going on here!" When he really found out that even his own consciousness couldn't penetrate the black mist, he suddenly became worried.

"This is Liu Shuo's luck. A thousand-year-old ghost that has been passed down by our sect fell in love with Liu Shuo, and voluntarily signed a contract with him to help him complete the foundation building. If Li Gui comes to see him, this kid Liu Shuo can already be counted as the fourth master of our sect."

"This... Sect Master Li Jie!"

Shi Zhen's complexion was extremely ugly, almost turning blue.

"How can this be..."

"Li Gui is our clan's own fighting power. This is recognized by all colleagues. Does Guanzhu Shizhen have any doubts? Besides, that kid Liu Shuo has a sense of propriety and won't hurt his disciples."

……

"Boy, don't rush to fight!"

The figure standing in the center of the stage pressed his bluish-black forehead, easily blocked the high-condensed ghost energy from Lin Yuan, and protected Liu Shuo behind his back.

"I still have something to ask you... For example, where is my king who found the ghost emperor's luck?"

☆, come from the same door

"I don't understand what you're talking about."

Lin Yuan suppressed his expression and tried to look as calm as possible—the existence of Yan Jingjun must not be known to these decent cultivators. Although the old ghost called Yan Jingjun "My King" before, God knows this old ghost will He didn't say that to deceive himself.

"Tsk! Don't pretend, you kid. If others don't feel it, will I still feel it's wrong? There is no doubt that you should have stayed with my king not long ago."

The old ghost stretched out his finger and pointed at the center of Lin Yuan's body.

"That's such a pity! It must be that you are getting old and old, so you are unconscious!"

"puff……"

Liu Shuo really couldn't suppress his own smile, he laughed out loud, "Ye Mie, you've been told - you're an old ghost!"

"Tsk! Is there any need to laugh so exaggeratedly!" The old ghost Ye Mie glared at Liu Shuo with a rather ferocious expression, but in fact he didn't feel much anger, but a bit like - acting like a spoiled child?

Lin Yuan shivered because of his excessive brain power, and secretly laughed at himself for thinking too much. An old ghost was facing a person—probably a young man? (Calculated according to the age of the practitioner?) —— Acting like a baby?It's too weird no matter how you think about it, even if ordinary ghosts are not as serious as Yan Jingjun (there is a chill that makes people's skin crawl when they laugh...), at least they won't act like a baby!

"Ye Mie, others are still waiting for your explanation, so don't just stare at me and keep quiet!"

"Tsk, I'll argue with you later."

Ye Mie gave Liu Shuo a hard look, and finally turned his head to Lin Yuan.

"Those whose souls cannot disappear in the world are ghosts."

"That is to say, no matter before becoming a ghost or after becoming a ghost, there will always be people who care about the person who became a ghost—this is the source of the ghost-controlling sect."

"Not everyone rejects the existence of ghosts."

"The cultivator who founded the Ghost Clan back then created the alternative cultivation method of the Ghost Clan with the idea of ​​letting ghosts live together. Even now, the Ghost Clan is still helping ghosts."

"Boy, regarding this point, the exercises you have practiced are the best proof, aren't they?"

"Although the kung fu you practiced has improved a lot compared to the kung fu of the Ghost Control Sect, the essence is exactly the same, and both humans and ghosts will benefit."

"You should have noticed it too!"

Lin Yuan pursed his lips. That's right, he did feel that his own kung fu and the kung fu of the person opposite him were echoing each other—it was a sign that the masters came from the same source.

But this……

"What does this mean? I secretly learned the technique of controlling ghosts?"

The problem of cultivation method can't explain anything at all!

"Tsk! You kid is too brainy! If you can't communicate with ghosts and get ghost energy, you can't practice the skills of the ghost control sect, right? How can ghosts not want to find a inheritance that can inherit the luck of the ghost emperor? Or, help him open the ghost world, so that the ghost clan can have a formal shelter?"

…………

"Is that so?"

Lin Yuan was thinking about what Ye Mie had told him, and couldn't help but think of Yan Jingjun—that person was responsible for the fate of the entire ghost clan, no wonder he always seemed so in a hurry, but he was obviously in such a hurry, why did he bring him along? burden?Obviously you don’t have to take him with you, you don’t need to worry about him, you don’t need to save him from the beginning, let him die in that secret underground room that no one knows about!

At that time, the old bastard surnamed Wang had just died. His soul was neither strong enough nor had enough resentment to turn him into a grudge.

Although it's strange to say that, isn't it true?

Yan Jingjun doesn't need to save him, and there is no reason to save him. Even if he dies, Yan Jingjun will lose a karma to bind him...

Lin Yuan lowered his head silently, with a bitter smile on the corner of his mouth.

To Yan Jingjun, Lin Yuan is just a troublesome and useless brat who hinders his steps.

No matter how much you don't want to admit it, it's true.

"I've told you everything I know."

Lin Yuan looked up at Old Ghost Ye Mie, "How about it, what are your plans?"

"The king is in seclusion...it must be reshaping his body. At this moment, there is a ghost emperor's luck blocking the heavenly secrets. For the time being, there is nothing to worry about. The problem is when he leaves the seclusion..."

"Is there any problem when you leave the customs?"

"The ghost of nothingness has regained its entity, but it is against the way of heaven. When my king leaves the customs, it will definitely cause changes in the world, and the guy from the Immortal Emperor will notice it... It seems that we must deploy manpower now to prevent the king from leaving. Guan was attacked on both sides by cultivators from the human world and immortals sent by the immortal world!"

…………

"I surrender."

Suddenly, the voice of his apprentice could be heard clearly from the ring surrounded by the pitch-black ghost fog. After hearing it, Shizhen finally breathed a sigh of relief, watching the ghost fog gradually dissipate on the stage, and withdrew his consciousness.

Lin Yuan was standing on the stage in a state of distress, his clothes were torn in one piece, a piece was cut short in the west, and a large piece of his right face was scorched black, while Liu Shuo stood on the stage almost completely intact. , Just one glance can make a judgment.

"Brother Liu is indeed powerful, and I am far behind."

"Brother Lin, accept it."

Lin Yuan watched Liu Shuo step off the stage and turned to look at his master.

"Sorry, Master, I lost."

"It doesn't matter, as long as nothing happens, there is no need to lose, there are two more chances."

Shi Zhen comforted his apprentice.

"Master believes in you."

…………

Probably because Lin Yuan lost too quickly in the competition with Liu Shuo, leaving a weak impression on people. As a result, the challengers behind were eager to challenge Lin Yuan to the battle, but how could Lin Yuan be like them? As weak as imagined?Easily swept away the two people who came up to challenge—he would not allow himself to be weak, because if he was weak, he would be a burden in that person's eyes, and he would never be able to catch up with that person's progress!

…………

That person has become so much stronger...

Minghe's eyes unconsciously followed the flying figure on the stage.

He has been left far behind by that person...

Minghe twirled the prayer beads in his hands, recited the Buddha's name silently, lowered his head, and forced himself to turn his attention away from the figure.

Maybe he should ask his master what happened to him...

…………
