Capítulo 1079: Chapter 419: Crow Bun Shop
Yellow Plains Prefecture, Cloud Deer Mountain, adjacent to Shepherd’s Flute Lake of Huangyuan.
The lake is not a dead lake; the major river of Huangyuan is its inlet, and the Xiling River is its outlet.
Stretching between the two major rivers, from above it looks sowhat like a young shepherd riding on a bull’s back.
Because when the lake wind blows through the mountain gorges on either side, it makes a sound similar to a flute, it’s called “Shepherd’s Flute.”
At this mont, the alarm bell of Yellow Plains Prefecture rings long, signaling the entry of a powerful master, and imdiately a thick fog rises over Shepherd’s Flute Lake.
The fog cos quickly and dissipates just as fast, as if lifting a light veil, then directly retreats, revealing dozens of fishing boats and covered boats on the lake surface.
Each boat, navigating on the lake like shuttles, before long approaches the foot of Cloud Deer Mountain.
However, even reaching the lake shore, there remains a few hundred feet from the foot of Cloud Deer Mountain.
Yet the helmsman of the leading boat showed no sign of stopping his pole. After reaching the shore, it continued pushing ahead as if rowing.
The boat began traveling on land.
“Land-traveling ship, the Bitter Ghost Master has arrived.”
Li Changxun, with sharp eyes, discerned the style of land-traveling ship imdiately recognized the nature of the visitor.
Yun Ziliang also said: “We just ca here for a stroll, but all it took was the Ancient Tree Golden Bell’s wail to summon even the Bitter Ghost Master.”
“How high is this Bitter Ghost Master’s level?” Zhou Xuan asked curiously.
“Quite high.”
Li Changxun said.
“How high really?” Zhou Xuan asked again.
“Generally, should be more powerful than .” Li Changxun said.
This answer really surprised Zhou Xuan.
Although he often mocked Li Changxun as the “Sha of the God,” the bottom of the Heavenly Do, but still, it was God-level, no reason to be worse than a re Hall Disciple in the human world.
“You don’t understand, the Bitter Ghost’s Tangkou is very united. The God-level ‘Bitter Ghost’ behind them, like ‘Gong Zheng’, is an ancient god who has lived for two thousand years,
this Tangkou’s tough guys, even after reaching the Nine Incenses level, won’t ascend to the Heavenly Do to slay gods, rather stay hidden in the human world, they are like students who haven’t passed to the next grade.”
Li Changxun sighed: “So the Bitter Ghost Master, his level is extrely high, not to ntion just , even the second to last in the Heavenly Do might not be able to deal with him.”
“And who’s the second to last?” Zhou Xuan asked.
“Jiugong it is.”
Li Changxun said: “The god-level behind Dun Jia.”
So, is this Daoist sect really that weak? One at the bottom, another second from the bottom?
“There are reasons.” Li Changxun said: “Mister, don’t forget, all other Tangkou have ans above Nine Incenses.”
The storyteller is “Will Heavenly Book” after Nine Incenses.
Tattoo is “Great Divine Map” after Nine Incenses.
But notably, the asures above Nine Incenses for Dragon Seeking and Dun Jia’s two Tangkou can only be understood when combined as one and are called “Gorge True Scripture.”
This “Gorge True Scripture”, for so many years, only Wang of Xishan of the Hu sect has comprehended it, understanding two levels of thods nad “Infinite Sage” and “Noble Dao.”
Under heaven, only Zhou Xuan has comprehended the third layer of the Gorge True Scripture, “Universal Form.”
“Such skills, all you layn have comprehended them.”
Li Changxun muttered. At this mont, what he thought was, if only he could comprehend “Gorge True Scripture”, how could he be the tail of the Heavenly Do, at least a third from the bottom.
“Look at you, with your limited potential.” Yun Ziliang scolded Li Changxun for not living up to expectations.
At this ti, the boat traveling on land was already near Zhou Xuan and the others.
The helmsman on the boat inquired: “Which group of heroes has co to Yellow Plains Prefecture, and which boat do you wish to take?”
Yun Ziliang shouted: “Bitter Ghost Master, we ca to Yellow Plains without taking a boat, just wandering around.”
He pointed to Zhou Xuan next to him and said: “This is the great master from Mingjiang Prefecture, with so friendship with your Bitter Ghost’s Guan Niang.”
“Oh? A great master indeed?”
The curtain of the cabin was lifted, and a middle-aged man walked out.
He was wearing a scholar’s robe and holding a round fan that only won like to use, with hair reaching his waist, looking like a powder-scented scholar—if not for his face.
This Bitter Ghost Master’s face was truly horrifying; he had the head of a fish, gills, scales, and the sticky liquid on his face flowed slowly.
“Lu Xingzhou of the Bitter Ghost Hall pays respect to the great master of Mingjiang Prefecture.”
Lu Xingzhou bowed to Zhou Xuan, and liquid slowly dripped from his face.
Zhou Xuan didn’t mind. After all, the Earth Child had hundreds of hands, what grand scenes has he not witnessed?
He clasped his fists and said: “The three of us entered the prefecture to investigate a strange tale from many years ago. We intended to leave after the investigation, so we didn’t inform the Master in advance. We’ve disturbed you, we’ve disturbed you.”
“It’s no disturbance.”
Lu Xingzhou, waving his round fan, said gently: “Since the day before yesterday, Yellow Plains Prefecture mysteriously rged with Jingchuan Prefecture. Our three major Tangkou in Yellow Plains are concerned about causing trouble, so we patrol the prefecture day and night.
Tonight, hearing the golden bell ringing, I thought there was a strong man causing trouble. Now seeing it’s the great master, we can put our minds at ease.”
As he spoke, he clasped his fists again: “Great master, your reputation precedes you. Though your ti in Jianghu is not long, the deeds you’ve accomplished are more renowned one after another. I’ve long admired you, and after you’re done, please visit Huangyuan Water Village to have a drink.”
“As for drinking, that’s easy to arrange.”
Zhou Xuan agreed.
