Patriarch enjoys meal

Chen Yu pinched the corner of the ticket and thought about it, took out his mobile phone to 'click' to take a photo, then changed his hand to open a dialog box and sent it.

'[pretend to have a picture]'

'Is this blood on it? '

Everyone on the train had almost left, Chen An wrapped the ticket in a tissue, put it in his pocket, and got off the high-speed train with his luggage.

......

Zhou already studied the photos sent by Chen An for a while.Does this imply that he has arrived in Xincheng?But the name on it is a bit interesting.

"Tao Jiang, what's your grandfather's name?"

"Why do you ask this?" Tao Jiang didn't answer his question.

Zhou already handed the phone to Tao Jiang: "Do you think this is it?"

After Tao Jiang glanced at it, he nodded.

"That's a coincidence, your grandfather and Chen An are on the same train." Zhou already zoomed in on the picture, although he couldn't tell whether the red color on the ticket was blood or not through the screen, but it was not a good sign anyway, ".. ...he seems to be in trouble."

After learning about the whole process of Chen Yu picking up the ticket on the phone, Zhou Weiran and Tao Jiang looked a lot more serious.

Qingyun Temple has been destroyed for many years, what successors can it have now?The young Taoist priest who claimed to be from the same sect as Tao Zhuopei should undoubtedly be from Zhai Ziyin's side.

Zhai Ziyin himself is like a mummy, he was seriously injured not long ago, and now he might fall apart if he walks a few more steps, and he will definitely not make a move himself, that person is probably his apprentice Zhang Sheng.

Then the problem came, Zhou Jiran looked at Tao Jiang, and said, "How is your grandpa... how strong is it?"

Zhai Ziyin is indeed difficult to deal with, but his apprentice is also really good.

Tao Jiang understood what Zhou Jiran meant, but he didn't answer the question directly, he just pointed to the thousand-year-old root in the vegetable field in the courtyard, and said: "The thousand-year-old root grows in the deep mountains, often haunts at night, and hides among the cliffs during the day. The traces are very difficult to find, and even a fox with spiritual consciousness may not be able to find one in its entire life."

But now, there are two trees in Tao's house.

The tree that Zhou Jiran caught was purely an accidental joy, but the one that Mr. Tao sent back was caught with seriousness and strength.

Just imagine, an old man nearly seventy years old, squatting alone in the deep mountains and old forests in central Sichuan, not only has to endure the harassment of poisonous insects and beasts, but also be careful of all kinds of mountain spirits.But even under such difficult conditions, he still caught Chitose Gen.

This already shows the strength of Mr. Tao.

Zhou already looked at the thousand-year-old roots that had begun to sprout.

"Ok, I see."

......

Zhang Sheng helped Tao Zhuopei, who looked dull, walk out of the gate of the high-speed railway station and turned into an alley. Both of them were wearing Taoist robes and their hair was tied up in a bun, which was really eye-catching in the crowd.Moreover, this old man is already very old, but unexpectedly, he is quite stubborn. On the high-speed rail, he used three talismans by talking to him, which made the surrounding passengers fall asleep, and managed to control him.

Zhang Sheng shook his sore arm and muttered in a low voice: "The old man is quite heavy..."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he was keenly aware that something was wrong—the weight on his body was suddenly much lighter.

One side of Zhang Sheng's head met a pair of clear and energetic eyes. Tao Zhuopei silently tightened the hands on Zhang Sheng's shoulders, and tightly bound his neck.

The situation reversed instantly.

Zhang Sheng swallowed his saliva, and pulled out a stiff smile: "Well... In fact, we really came from the same school. My master is Zhai Ziyin, Zhai Ziyin, you know? At the time, the master of Qingyun Temple Gong Changsheng's closed disciple! He is the one who asked me to invite you!"

Tao Zhuopei's expression was one-third surprised and seven-point clear, but he did not relax his grip: "Zhai Ziyin... so he is not dead."

How can I ask him, who is an apprentice, to pick up what he said.Should it be said that he was cared for or cursed maliciously?

If calculated according to Qing Yun Guan's seniority, this old man is still his junior.

However, Zhang Sheng was controlled by others, so he could only laugh awkwardly.

"Now that there are only a few of us left in the master's school, the master doesn't want to see my master?" Zhang Sheng said vigorously, "My master really wants to discuss with you about the... something."

Having said so much, Tao Zhuopei still had a serious face, without changing his expression, Zhang Sheng really couldn't see what the old man meant.Anyway, his neck was still pinched by his hands, so he simply broke his can and said, "You can tell me whether you want to go or not!"

Tao Zhuopei: "Go."

"..." Zhang Sheng: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go?!"

"No, I can't leave now." Tao Zhuopei turned on his phone and looked at it: "Master Didi will arrive in 5 minutes."

Zhang Sheng: "...Oh."

......

After getting out of the car and seeing the familiar residential building, Zhang Sheng still couldn't believe that he actually brought him back after so long.

Although the person who was held hostage in the end became himself, Tao Zhuopei also came here voluntarily...

In any case, this result can be regarded as fulfilling Master's explanation!

The small rental house is always a dark scene. Zhai Ziyin is leaning on the recliner and flipping through a thin booklet. His expression is extremely serious, to the degree of sacredness. Look up.

Zhang Sheng never dared to disturb Zhai Ziyin when he was flipping through the booklet.When he first worshiped under Zhai Ziyin's sect, he violated the ban on it, and the punishment he received has made him dare not forget it to this day...

What a coincidence for them today!Zhang Sheng sighed secretly in his heart.Fortunately, Tao Zhuopei is not a talkative person, and has been quietly observing the surrounding environment since he came in.

After a few minutes, seeing Zhai Ziyin closed the booklet, Zhang Sheng hurriedly stepped forward and whispered something to his master.

"Tao Zhuopei." Zhai Ziyin squinted his cloudy eyes and carefully looked at the person in front of him. He looked like an elder, "There are only two bloodlines left in Qingyun Temple, but I have never had contact with the Tao family in the past hundred years." ...Do you know why I came here today?"

Tao Zhuopei nodded: "It's something suppressed by Tao Zhai."

Zhai Ziyin barely sat up straight with his arms like dead branches, and then he sighed heavily, his voice suddenly raised, and he shouted coldly: "Tao Zhuopei, No. 18 disciple of Qingyun Temple, you know your mistake!"

Zhang Sheng, who was standing next to Zhai Ziyin, was startled by the sudden scolding, and after recovering, he couldn't help but glance up.

Zhang Sheng admired Tao Zhuopei who was facing the impact head-on. At this time, he still had that serious and upright expression, and even changed the direction of taking the whisk.

"I don't know, please enlighten me."

After that cold drink, Zhai Ziyin also quickly restrained his outgoing aura, and said in a low voice: "Let me ask you, what is the responsibility of your Tao family? How did the master entrust you with it? Now the Tao Jiang in Tao's house is called Tao Jiang." What's the... again?"

Tao Zhuopei replied sternly: "The duty of the Tao family is to defend the formation. I was not born when the master entrusted the ancestors of the Tao family, so I don't know the details. Tao Jiang is my grandson."

"You said Tao Jiang is your grandson?" Zhai Ziyin sneered a few times, the lotus crown on his head trembling with his thin body, "We all know what he is, he is not even human!"

"Tao Jiang has a household registration and an ID card. He has received a nine-year compulsory education and went to a university. Why is he not a human?" After talking, Tao Zhuopei glanced at Zhai Ziyin, who looked like a mummy, and asked, "That's all Many years have passed, now you, do you have an identity card?"

To be honest, Master is indeed a black household now.In the past, it was possible to use talismans to create a cover-up, but now that technology is getting more and more advanced, cover-ups are not easy to use most of the time.

A few years ago, he went to the bottom of the bridge to ask someone to give a false certificate to the master, but unfortunately, this aspect is now being strictly grasped.

Zhang Sheng sighed silently.

Naturally, Zhai Ziyin couldn't understand the bitterness of his apprentice going out and doing business. After hearing Tao Zhuopei's words, he sneered and said, "Is your Tao family going to betray the master?"

"I have to make this point clear first." Tao Zhuopei said earnestly, "The Tao family lineage has been drawn out of Qingyun Temple a hundred years ago. Strictly speaking, our family has no teacher for a long time."

"Qingyun Temple has long been destroyed, so why talk about betrayal."

The deathly silence made Zhang Sheng's breathing slow down. To his surprise, his master didn't seem to be very angry, as if... as if he had already accepted this fact.

After a few seconds of silence, Zhai Ziyin spoke again, his voice could not hear any emotion: "What do you want?"

Tao Zhuopei straightened Fuchen, and said: "Our Tao family has compensated many people for the original oath over the past 100 years, and now there are no successors in my generation... Maybe it's God's will. It was a joke to suppress the ancient beasts by manpower."

"A joke? A joke...it's a joke...God's will...God's will can't be violated..." Zhai Ziyin muttered to himself, and after a few seconds, there seemed to be light in his eyes Flashed, "Since you want to give up your original oath, you will give up Tao's house."

Tao Zhuopei remained silent.

Zhai Ziyin leaned back on the reclining chair, closed his eyes halfway, and said, "I don't care about your betrayal because of the merits of the Tao family's generations of guarding the seal formation."

"I see." Tao Zhuopei smiled suddenly, as if his doubts for a long time had finally been answered, he sighed with relief, and the gloom accumulated between his brows for a long time dissipated.

"Do you know how the master of Qingyun Temple entrusted the ancestors of the Tao family?" Tao Zhuopei asked.

Didn't you just say that you were not born at that time, so you don't know the specific situation?Zhang Sheng didn't dare to say this, but only dared to complain silently in his heart.

Zhai Ziyin closed his eyes and didn't intend to speak.

Tao Zhuopei didn't mind, and said coldly: "Besides entrusting my Tao family to guard the sealing formation to the death, there is one more word."

"Beware of Zhai Ziyin."

Zhai Ziyin frowned and opened his eyes.

"The temple master went away after saying this. The ancestors of the Tao family tried their best to recruit the soul of the temple master... This endless sentence confused him for a lifetime. Why should he be wary of a What about the dead?"

"This sentence has been passed down together with the oath of guarding the formation. It was not until today that I really understood what Guanzhu Gong meant." Tao Zhuopei looked at Zhai Ziyin, who looked as cold as ice, and said word by word, "The formation under Tao Zhai , It is a seal and a guardian, the one who really needs to be protected is you."

"The one to defend is the Nine-Tailed Fox."
