Chapter 179 You are better than fertilizer
Pan Yun: "But what?"
Zhang Ziming frowned. "Whether it's absorbing energy or feeding corpse worms with flesh and blood, young people with vigorous blood should be selected. Why did he choose this... old Taoist priest?"
Pan Jun: "Oh, he is young."
Chen Ziwu was afraid of causing misunderstanding, so he quickly bowed and said, "I am Chen Ziwu, 23 years old. I just disguised myself to make it easier for me to travel around the world and do some divination rituals. Misunderstanding, misunderstanding..."
Zhang Ziming and the others were silent for a moment, then looked at him for a while and asked, "Pan Yun, do you know him?"
Pan Yun: "I met him today. I was setting up a stall and he was buying medicine."
Zhang Ziming and others realized instantly that the medicine from Sanqing Mountain was unmatched in the entire world.
Zhang Ziming glanced at Zhang Zixiang.
Zhang Zixiang asked Chen Ziwu to go down and remove his makeup. Since he wanted to investigate, he must know what the person looked like, right?
Chen Ziwu smiled and left with Zhang Zixiang very obediently.
After they walked away, Zhang Ziming murmured, "I have only seen the Essence Sucking Bug occasionally in some books. Because it is insidious and vicious, there is no specific method to breed it. The book of the skill of transferring energy has never mentioned it. I don't know where this person got the Essence Sucking Bug from, and how he raised so many of them."
Wang Gongze: "There are many insects in the southwest, and they are good at raising poisonous insects. Could it be that they came from the southwest?"
"Why did the evil people from the southwest come to our Jiangnan?" A senior brother said, "If it were up to me, no matter where they came from, we should wake them up and use the seventy-two punishments. I don't believe they won't confess."
"He was stabbed, but he can't wake up," Zhang Ziming said after glancing at Pan Yun, "He was stabbed too hard. I'm worried. If his brain is damaged, it will be useless even if he wakes up."
Pan Yun: "No way, at most we'll chop up his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys and dantian. He can't hide the bugs in his brain, right? Isn't that courting death?"
Everyone moved to the next room to look at Xie Dao who was lying straight on the wooden bed, and after a moment they all turned to look at Pan Yun.
The person on the wooden bed had a charred face, his hair stood up and was disheveled, and he exuded the smell of barbecue.
Pan Jun looked at him and also remained silent.
Pan Xiaohei couldn't help but meow and said, "Aren't you going to save him? He might die now."
[The scourge has lasted for thousands of years. I don't believe he can die so easily. 】
Pan Yun said, "Why not cut him open while he's still alive and see where the queen is hiding and whether he's alive or dead."
Zhang Ziming: "No, how is this different from evil? Let's ask Dean Lou to come and save him. At least we need to know how many people he has harmed and how many people out there are using the same methods as him to harm others."
"Send someone to the Cliff of Repentance to call Hall Master Lin down. This matter is serious and needs to be investigated by the Criminal Law Hall."
"It's almost dawn. There's no need to go up and call him. He will come down," Zhang Ziwang said angrily. "Why does he have to lock himself up in the cliff? Can't he reflect on his mistakes down there?"
Pan Yun reminded faintly: "Master Zhang, I'm still here."
Everyone:...
Zhang Ziwang stopped talking immediately, his face flushed red.
Teachers can say this in private, but not in front of students. After all, the Cliff of Repentance is a powerful weapon to intimidate students.
If it's the same wherever you reflect on your mistakes, why should you send students to the cliff as punishment?
The scene was awkward for a moment, and everyone was silent. Finally, Zhang Ziwang's good friend Wang Gongze said, "I'll go and ask Dean Lou to come."
The stagnant atmosphere became lively again, and everyone continued to gather around Xie Dao to look at him. "Looking at the clothes he's wearing, he must be from a wealthy family. If we look carefully, we may be able to find out where he came from."
"A new face. He must not be a Taoist from Jiangnan or the Central Plains. He must be from the north or the southwest."
A senior brother came forward and pulled open his teeth and looked at them and said, "Judging from his teeth and body shape, he is not from the north."
Pan Jun listened with her hands clasped together, but they didn't find anything useful and she almost fell asleep while listening.
Fortunately, Chen Ziwu came back after removing his makeup.
After removing his makeup, Chen Ziwu looks like a young and energetic guy.
He saluted repeatedly, then leaned over to look at the evil path on the bed and asked, "Is he dead?"
Pan Yun: “Not yet.”
"So it's almost time?"
Pan Yun nodded.
Chen Ziwu was a little hesitant. "Why don't we save him? I know a little bit about medicine. I can wake him up and ask him about the inside story."
Zhang Ziwang didn't let him do it. Who among those present didn't have some knowledge of medicine?
I've seen them all. Just leave it alone and wait for Lou Tong to take care of the rest.
He didn't really trust Chen Ziwu, "When did Brother Chen come to Mount Longhu?"
Chen Ziwu said: "I arrived yesterday."
"What are you doing in Longhu Mountain?"
Chen Ziwu said: "I came to seek the truth."
He said, "I am twenty-three years old, and I come to ask for ordination."
"Do you have a certificate of ordination?"
Chen Ziwu shook his head, blushing slightly, and said, "I practice on my own."
Zhang Ziwang stretched out his hand to him, "Household registration."
Chen Ziwu hurriedly rummaged in his sleeves and took out his household registration.
Sure enough, in any dynasty and in any place, when something happens, the first thing to check is the ID card.
Pan Yun leaned over to look.
Zhang Ziwang glanced at her, then handed it to her after reading it. Pan Yun took a look and immediately took it.
Pan Jun raised his eyebrows. He was from Fengyang, the birthplace of our dynasty.
Pan Yun closed the household registration form and handed it to everyone, who then passed it around for review.
According to Chen Ziwu's explanation, he came to Mount Longhu for cultural exchange. Firstly, he wanted to see if he could learn something from the Mount Longhu Academy; secondly, he wanted to inquire about the ordination.
The Tianshi Mansion is the place that manages all the Taoists in the world, and the Xuegong is also an academy for Taoists all over the world. In addition to recruiting long-term students, it occasionally organizes short-term training.
Taoist priests from all over the world are also welcome to visit for exchanges.
Pan Yun felt that it was just a visit to the mountain.
This is because the Taoist priests who come to the door are all boastful, and then they establish easily broken friendships with the Taoist priests in the Great Shangqing Palace or the Academy, in order to obtain some inside information that everyone can know.
We chose to go up the mountain in the evening so that we could use the excuse that it was dark and stay overnight at the Dashangqing Palace.
"I originally planned to visit the abbot of the Great Shangqing Palace tomorrow, oh, after dawn, and then practice in the Great Shangqing Palace, and wait until September to take the examination for ordination."
"You dare to come and take the test for the certificate of ordination, why don't you take the test for the certificate of ordination?"
Chen Ziwu sighed and said, "I want to, too, but the court has strict requirements. At my age, I have to be beaten with a stick before taking the exam. I feel... very nervous, thinking that I will not do well in the exam and will not be able to pass it in one try..."
After being beaten with a stick, I couldn't even sit still when I went to take the exam. The exam was difficult to begin with, and the number of admitted candidates was small, so there was no chance I could pass.
Zhang Ziwang frowned, "Since you don't have a certificate of ordination, how will your labor be calculated?"
Chen Ziwu grinned and said, "I am a native of Fengyang, so I don't need to serve in the army."
Zhang Ziwang said meaningfully, "Local people~~"
Zhang Ziwang skipped over the incident and asked, "How did he catch you?"
The process of Chen Ziwu being captured was very ordinary. The other party pretended to be a Taoist priest from the academy and walked towards Chen Ziwu from top to bottom.
He approached and started a conversation. In just two sentences, as there was no one else on the road, he started taking action.
He and the corpse attacked at the same time, and Chen Ziwu was taken away after only a few resistances.
Maybe he was afraid that he would hurt himself, damage his Dantian, and lose his energy, so the other party was very careful and didn't hurt him, let alone internal injuries, not even external injuries.
"In other words, this is the first time you saw Xie Dao. You haven't seen him before?" Lin Jingle walked in and asked.
Everyone turned around and found that Lin Jingle had been standing at the door at some point and seemed to have been listening for a long time.
Everyone looked out the window and saw that the sky was already bright.
Zhang Ziwang said, "You came at the right time. I don't know if this man came to Longhu Mountain to chase someone, or if he came to Longhu Mountain specifically to arrest someone. I also want to know if he has any accomplices. We need to investigate all of this."
Lin Jingle said "hmm", walked forward to take a look at the person on the wooden bed and said, "Where is Dean Lou?"
"I'm coming." Lou Tong walked in with a sour face. She was in a very bad mood when she woke up. Someone banged on her door before dawn. It was very friendly of her not to draw her sword.
The prince followed behind, touched his nose and walked in awkwardly.
After Lou Tong checked the man, he began to rescue him. Lin Jingle stared at Chen Ziwu sharply, flipped through his household registration, and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen hasn't said anything yet. Is this the first time you've seen him, or have you seen him before?"
Chen Ziwu said quickly: "This is the first time I've seen him, really, otherwise I would definitely not let him get close to me."
Lin Jingle: "Where are you from, Longhu Mountain?"
"Kaifeng."
"In the past half month, have you not met any special people or experienced any special things?"
Chen Ziwu was about to say no, but suddenly paused.
Lin Jingle nodded slightly, "Of course there is."
Lin Jingle turned around and asked Lou Tong, "Can the person be saved?"
Lou Tong looked better and nodded, "Okay, but it will take some time for him to wake up. This is not the thunder that can be struck by the thunder talisman. Who summoned this thunder?"
No one spoke, and everyone looked at Pan Yun.
Pan Jun also reached out, "Me."
Lou Tong said: "Don't use this method in future competitions at school, it will kill people."
Pan Yun grinned and said, "This is a desperate method. Don't worry, Dean Lou, I won't use it unless I have no other choice."
Lou Tong said: "You go back and rest."
Pan Jun glanced at the person on the wooden bed and nodded, "Then I'll come over after he wakes up."
Chen Ziwu could only watch her leave.
Lin Jingle's questions were much sharper than Zhang Ziwang's. As soon as she left, Lin Jingle asked him over and over again. Not only did he ask about every day of his past month, he also inquired about his whereabouts in the past year.
He asked the question back and forth, jumping around, writing and drawing on the paper. After a long time, he came to a conclusion, "This man is chasing you, starting from Kaifeng Prefecture."
Chen Ziwu also realized this during his review.
He murmured, "Am I a genius, so he chose me?"
Lin Jingle glanced at him and said, "Because you can convert internal force into Yuan force. Nowadays, people practice Yuan force, while most people in the martial arts world practice internal force. He Jie, who was captured and used as fertilizer, practiced internal force."
So he can only serve as fertilizer, while Chen Ziwu can be the provider of energy.
Chen Ziwu's face turned pale when he thought of the bugs that kept crawling out of the jar. He didn't want to do this at all.
Seeing that he was pale and colorless, Lin Jingle comforted him, "It's all the same. Fertilizer still needs to be laid in the blood, and you are dead. In the end, your body is preserved. You are better than fertilizer."
