General Zhiyi

The world is divided into four parts, the human world, the ghost world, the demon world and the heavenly world.

The human world is the ancestor of the Three Realms. When you are born as a human being, if you have resentment, obsession, greed and other obsessions in your heart after death, your soul will separate and turn into a ghost. One category is monsters. If you have faith, virtue, and goodness, you will be promoted to a god, and you will be listed in the immortal class, which is called a priest.

There is an emperor in the human world, a king in the ghost world, a king in the demon world, and an emperor in the heaven world.

As far as the four realms are concerned, death is not the death of the body, but the disappearance of the soul.

Jiuchongtian, Xiandu.

"Brother Xu, how is that one doing?" An old man with a white beard who was leaning leisurely by the door took out a handful of melon seeds from his cuff, licked them with his front teeth, smacked his lips, and held a large stack of documents in his hands. The short-bearded man passing by the temple gate asked.

Hearing someone calling him, Xu Tao poked his head out from behind the document, pulled out his thoughts from the complicated affairs, and showed doubts on his face: "I don't know who Master Bai is referring to?"

"Who else could it be, isn't it that one!" Bai Xiangshi winked and said.

Xu Tao frowned and thought about it, then nodded sharply at Bai Xiangshi: "Oh! It's that one!"

"That's right!" Bai Xiangshi nodded and waved at Xu Tao, "That's the one!"

Xu Tao became interested in an instant, walked up to Bai Xiangshi in a few steps, bent over and put the stack of documents on the ground, and sat with Bai Xiangshi on the threshold in front of his hall, and spread his hands to catch Bai Xiangshi and hand it over. He picked up a handful of melon seeds with his index finger, shrugged his shoulders, and showed a look of nothing to say: "That one, what can you do? It's still the same."

Bai Xiangshi didn't want to hear what he wanted to hear, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed the melon seeds in Xu Tao's palm, and said in a vicious voice, "What's the matter with the old man!"

"Hey!" Seeing that Bai Xiangshi was about to leave, Xu Tao quickly reached out and grabbed his sleeve, "Whatever Master Bai wants to hear, just say it."

Bai Xiangshi laughed "hehe" twice, sat down on the threshold again, put the melon seeds back into Xu Tao's palm one by one, and said, "I heard that you Wuxu Palace and Yanyang Palace are competing on that one." Let's see who can find out where the merits of that person are scattered first, is there such a thing?"

Hearing this, Xu Tao's hand pinching melon seeds stopped suddenly, and he looked left and right, making sure that there were no other people waiting to watch, and then nodded solemnly: "It's true."

"Then..." Bai Xiangshi's eyes lit up, "Have you found anything in the Hall of Wuxu?"

Xu Tao gave Bai Xiangshi a complicated look, and fell into a long silence.

Thinking that Xu Tao was worried that he would break his mouth, Bai Xiangshi quickly patted his chest and swore: "You still can't believe me, Bai Xiangshi? Put your heart in your stomach, the old man will never take the news from Wuxu Temple Leak it out! The old man is just curious, promise to listen to it!"

But Xu Tao still shook his head, pondered for a moment, and said, "This junior is not afraid that Master Bai will talk too much, it's just that he doesn't know what to say."

"What?" Bai Xiangshi pinched the white beard in front of him with two fingers, rubbed his fingertips lightly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Xu Tao steadily, "Could it be that you didn't find anything?"

After hearing this, Xu Tao gave a wry smile: "That's right! According to the estimate of the junior hall, there is not much progress in the Yanyang Hall."

Bai Xiangshi's palm stroked along the white beard, his face was full of confusion, and he murmured to himself: "Hiss, that person has never stopped since he appeared, logically speaking, he has accumulated a lot of merit. Little, how could you disappear?"

"Isn't it!" Xu Tao patted his knee heavily, "Everyone knows that that person lives on the top of Xiyun Mountain in his spare time, and he hasn't even gone down the mountain. What do you think is the merit? Where did it all go? For a god, merit is so important, how can he consume it so quickly?"

Bai Xiangshi glanced at Xu Tao, and looked down at the few melon seeds scattered in his palm, wondering what he was thinking, and didn't make a sound for a long time.

"Master Bai, you have been in this fairy city for at least a thousand years, can you tell me a thing or two about that one?"

As a priest who has only been promoted for 200 years, Xu Tao's knowledge of a certain person is based on incisive attacks. He only knows that that person is a famous general in the human world 800 years ago. For God, he didn't say a word on the day of his ascension, and immediately turned around and jumped into the mortal pool, and disappeared as soon as he went to the human world, only showing his head a few days ago.

Although it is said that a priest would not be able to use immortal arts without merit, but since he has become an immortal, as long as he has not fallen, he will always be a priest.

Priests will fall until no one in the human world remembers them, and the so-called fall means turning into a mortal, experiencing an ordinary life, and then disappearing completely.

Speaking of it, Xu Tao was even more puzzled. He heard that there was no one in the human world to enshrine, but he never fell during these 800 years.

It is enough to see that the one who has been praised in the human world for 800 years has never been forgotten, but how can there be no one to enshrine such a god?

This is really strange!

As the competent subordinate of the chief priest, one of the two major intelligence halls, Xu Tao is committed to finding out the whole story. He circles among the old priests all day long, but he can only hear a few words and inquire about some irrelevant news.

What kind of general is invincible with his sword, what kind of general is unparalleled throughout the ages, what kind of general is poor and miserable, what kind of general is today/forced into prostitution... Anyway, there are all kinds of words, and he will be confused if he hears too much Oh, this... is this really the same person?

As for the more reliable news, it’s not that they are unwilling to say it, and it’s not that they were silenced and banned by their superiors. It’s just that almost no one knows about it, and most priests dare not go to the few people who know the news. Pry their mouths.

That person's past, the past 800 years, was completely hidden under his misty sleeves, never covered with dust, but after all no one could get a glimpse of it.

Xu Tao once met the legendary one by chance.

Unruly, uninhibited.

This is the first impression he left on Xu Tao.

After the contact in a few words, Xu Tao silently signed that person in his heart - "avoid if you can". He has an outstanding temperament, so why is he not a decent person?

But after thinking about it, that person's fame has been spread in the Four Realms for 800 years, no matter how bad it is, there must be something special about it, right?

Of course, except for that handsome face.

However, the senior told him righteously that the man didn't have any mana cultivation base!

To put it bluntly, that guy is a purebred...weak chicken.

But Piansheng is such a purebred weak chicken, but he has the ability to turn the four worlds upside down.

As a result, Xu Tao's curiosity became more and more intense. When he learned that Wuxu Palace and Yanyang Palace were going to dig out secrets from that person, all his hard work was stimulated, but he was busy for more than half a year. , He didn't find anything, and while feeling very disappointed, his heart itched more and more.

This time it's rare to meet Bai Xiangshi, the veteran of the heavenly world who hasn't shown up for ten and a half months and is still flustered. Xu Tao naturally wants to ask such a question, maybe he can hear some less useless news, at least let him know Know why the man jumped into the mortal world 800 years ago.

I saw that Bai Xiangshi stuffed all the melon seeds in his palm into his mouth, and chewed the shells once and for all. He chewed thoughtfully for a long time, but he didn't seem to hear Xu Tao's question just now. Since he stood up and patted off the melon seeds crumbs on his body, he turned around and walked into the hall with a flick of his sleeves.

Xu Tao was stunned for a moment, knowing that if he entered, he would disappear for a month, so he quickly reached out and grabbed his trouser leg, and hurriedly shouted: "Master Bai! You are not being kind!"

Bai Xiangshi paused in his footsteps, and as if he just came back to his senses, he took back his wandering thoughts, and said with a smile, "That one, who used to be unbelievably serious, is now unbelievably unprincipled."

After saying such a sentence just now, Bai Xiangshi pulled back his trouser legs, ignored Xu Tao's bewilderment and questioning, and walked slowly into the inner hall with his hands behind his back.

After hearing a nonsensical answer, Xu Tao sighed helplessly, propped his head and sat on the threshold for a while, then picked up the stack of documents, got up and walked back to Xiandu Avenue, ready to go back to Wuxu Hall Report the important matters selected in advance.

Half an hour later, Xu Tao, who had finally had the time to sit down and have a sip of tea to rest for a while while he was descending to the Third Heaven Desire Realm, sneezed loudly, and the snot from his nose bubbled with a "poof" sound. The moment he broke open, a low and lazy voice sounded in his mind: "Mr. Xu, I have a request from Tang Jingxu."

This straight-to-the-point tone, which is neither pretentious nor tactful, isn't it the same as General Jianyan!

Inexplicably called by Tang Jingxu who had been thinking about him for a long time, Xu Tao hurriedly wiped off the tea stains on his chin, and said in awe, "I don't know what General Tang is doing?"

Fear turned to panic, Xu Tao still couldn't help muttering in his heart: This master who has always been in the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and I only met once, not even a nodding acquaintance, it is impossible to find him. I'm chatting, but I'm just running errands in Wuxu Palace, what can he come to for?

"Mr. Xu is an effective subordinate of Pan Lin, the master of Wuxu Hall, one of the two great intelligence halls in the heavenly realm. I know that Mr. Xu has his heart set on the affairs of the world, so I want to get an unimportant piece of information from him."

Hearing this casual tone, Xu Tao saw Tang Jingxu with his legs crossed. He looked lazy but his face was full of gimmicks. He swallowed and asked tentatively: "What does General Tang want to know?" ?”

"Today, where is the ghost town?"

Hearing this, Xu Tao's brows immediately frowned, and he said with a bitter face: "General Tang, this is not some irrelevant information."

Not only is it not irrelevant, but the location of the ghost town is very important.

You know, the three realms of demons, ghosts, and gods do not violate the waters of the river, but the gods are closely related to the human world after all, and the two worlds of demons and ghosts will inevitably have entanglements with the human world. Under the prayers of mortals, priests kill demons and ghosts There is no lack of work, the demon and ghost worlds are already chaotic, and most of the cases will not be taken care of, and in order to avoid chaos in the four worlds, the ghost city and the demon palace have been secretly monitored by the heavens, and this responsibility falls to the heads of the two intelligence halls.

In the position of intelligence, the most taboo thing is to talk badly. If Tang Jingxu asked some innocuous matter, it would be fine for Xu Tao to mention a few words casually, but the location of the ghost town is really hard to say. Those who are interested will know that it is nothing for him to be dismissed, but it is a crime to cause disputes between the two circles.

Tang Jingxu on the other end was silent for a moment, then smiled and said: "How about this, Mr. Xu, you just need to tell me if there are any activities held in the ghost world today. It shouldn't be unreasonable, right?"

There are only a few activities in the ghost world upside down, and the four worlds are familiar to everyone. It’s really not a secret thing. It’s just that Tang Jingxu asked about today, which obviously meant something. Except for activities on fixed days, he asked implicitly. The most important thing is "whether there is a ghost market today".

The ghost city happens every three months, although the place where it appears is not fixed each time, but there are only four places on the left and right. Tang Jingxu explores every place, and he can always touch it. is a breeze.

Thinking about it this way, Xu Tao suddenly felt that Tang Jingxu was not as casual as he looked on the outside, but he should be a thoughtful person.

"At sunset, a ghost market appears." Thinking that this would not be a bad rule, Xu Tao replied honestly.

Tang Jingxu chuckled and said, "Thank you."

I thought Tang Jingxu was going to cut off the connection, but he heard him say again: "By the way, Mr. Xu, please ask Panlin for me, are you planning to pay back the meat buns you owed me 300 years ago?"

Xu Tao: "..."
