Chapter 1 My name is Chen Huangpi

Chapter 1 My name is Chen Huangpi

The Ten Thousand Mountains are majestic and steep.

On Yuqiong Mountain, inside Jingxian Temple.

The main hall is ten meters high.

There are portraits of three Taoists on the yellow mud wall.

Chen Huangpi has his back to the portrait, holding a medicine book in his hands, thinking hard.

A while ago, my master went crazy from practicing martial arts.

He insisted that he actually had three masters.

The first master wears a purple robe, the second master wears a white robe, and the third master wears a green robe.

He also moved away all the statues originally worshipped in Jingxian Temple and painted three portraits of himself.

It is said that Jingxian Temple does not support idle people, let alone idle gods.

Since you're just eating for free anyway, you might as well worship yourself.

Chen Huangpi thought it made sense, and planned to replace his master's portrait with his own after his master passed away.

Suddenly, Chen Huangpi put down the medicine book.

"Master is here."

Just as he finished speaking, a white-haired Taoist priest in a purple robe with a black base and red plum blossoms embroidered on it ran in, shouting as he ran.

"Yellow-skinned, yellow-skinned!"

"Master...Master, what's wrong?"

Chen Huangpi subconsciously wanted to call him Master, but when he saw the color of the clothes he was wearing, he quickly changed his words.

The master has a temper as stubborn as a donkey.

He said he had three masters, so he couldn't call them by the wrong identities and mess up the order of seniority.

Otherwise I will get angry.

Once someone gets angry, it takes a long time to appease him.

Chen Huangpi didn't want to make him angry.

The purple-robed Taoist priest drooled and said excitedly, "Huang Pi'er, I calculated with my fingers and found that today is your birthday. After today, you will be nine years old."

Chen Huangpi shook his head and said, "Master, you remembered it wrongly. At this time last year, I was only seven years old. After today, I should be eight years old."

"But you said the same thing last year."

“It was the same two years ago.”

"And the year before last."

"Then I guess I remembered it wrong. Let's start from the beginning. I will be eight years old after today."

"Well, if only you were nine."

The old Taoist in purple robe was secretly sad and wiped his saliva unwillingly.

Chen Huangpi shook his head secretly.

Master's insanity is getting worse.

We have to patrol the mountains more often to collect herbs, otherwise it would be too much suffering for the master to be crazy at his old age.

"Master, I'm going to the mountains now. I'll come back to make you some broth in the evening."

Chen Huangpi picked up a brass oil lamp and left.

The purple-robed Taoist drooled and said, "You have to come back before dark, otherwise you may run into some dirty creatures blocking your way."

"understood."

Chen Huangpi's voice gradually faded away.

The old Taoist in purple robe stood there, his stomach growling with hunger.

Suddenly, the purple-robed Taoist's face changed instantly, and he climbed up to the cushion where Chen Huangpi had been sitting before with his hands and feet. He took a deep breath and said with an intoxicated look on his face, "It smells good, really good, better than before. It would be nice if Huangpi was nine years old."

"Wait one more year. Wait one more year."

"No, don't wait."

If Chen Huangpi were here, he would definitely exclaim, "Second Master, why did you come out in the daytime?"

Because at this time, the old Taoist's purple robe had turned into a white robe.

……

The mountain road is rugged and slippery, and the shade of the trees blocks out the sun.

Chen Huangpi was carrying a bag on his back, with a brass oil lamp hanging on his waist, and he walked as fast as the wind.

There are many dangers and evil things in the mountains.

Patrolling the mountains and collecting herbs is not an easy task.

It’s okay during the day, but if you’re outside at night, you’re likely to run into dirt.

A few days ago, when Chen Huangpi was patrolling the mountains to collect herbs, he was delayed for a while due to heavy rain, and it was dark as a result.

A headless man blocked Chen Huangpi's way.

The man asked Chen Huangpi right away if he had seen his head.

Chen Huangpi said no, so the man asked Chen Huangpi for his head.

Chen Huangpi only has one head, so he would definitely not want to do that.

Unexpectedly, the man offered to buy it with money.

A full hundred bucks!

Chen Huangpi hesitated for a while and told the man that he could sell it, but he had to go back to cook for his master at night and he couldn't do without a brain.

The man was stunned for a moment, then agreed to Chen Huangpi that he could take his head tomorrow, but he had to sign a seal.

When Chen Huangpi heard about such a good idea, he agreed.

As a result, the next day, Chen Huangpi waited and waited, but the man never came to take his head.

There was just an extra booklet with signatures and seals in the hall.

Chen Huangpi also got a hundred dollars for nothing.

……

Chen Huangpi patrolled the mountain for a while.

The backpack was already filled with medicinal herbs, including ginseng, cardamom, white cardamom, wolfberry, and star anise.

It can be said that it has everything.

Just about to go back.

The brass oil lamp hanging around Chen Huangpi's waist suddenly grew human features and shouted, "Chen Huangpi, Chen Huangpi!"

"Huang Er, what do you want me to do?"

The brass oil lamp said, "Don't go back to the temple. I have overheard the temple master say several times that he wants to eat you, but you are not yet nine years old. If he doesn't eat you, then he will bite me. Look at the many teeth marks on my body."

As he spoke, a slender arm grew out of the brass oil lamp and pointed at the tooth marks on the lamp.

Chen Huangpi shook his head and said, "Huang Er, don't worry. Master has bad teeth and can't bite you to death."

"Nonsense, it's not you that I'm biting."

"Chen Huangpi, let's run! Don't you want to see the outside world? Today is a good opportunity."

Of course Chen Huangpi wants to see the outside world.

In fact, he had never seen any other living person except his master since he was a child.

But the master has gone mad.

Chen Huangpi has to cure his master, otherwise he will be worried.

"There will be more opportunities in the future!" "Ah, I can't persuade you."

The brass oil lamp sighed helplessly. Seeing that he couldn't convince anyone, he simply grabbed a handful of yellow mud and smeared it on his body to cover up the teeth marks.

Just like this.

The originally bright yellow oil lamp became dirty, and there was really no wonder at all.

Chen Huangpi walked back.

The road here was not easy to walk on because we had to patrol the mountains and collect herbs.

When you go back, all you have to do is take a step.

Just now.

Suddenly, a loud noise was heard from the distant mountains.

boom!
boom!
The noises came one after another.

Chen Huangpi frowned and leaped directly to the treetop. The next second, a huge strange blue-black figure appeared in his eyes.

The figure was about tens of feet tall, with no facial features, his body was dark blue, his chest was bare, his head was like a tree crown and covered with tumors, there was a huge mouth on his chest, with canine teeth intertwined, and a bloody tongue with barbs sticking out. At this time, he stretched out his hands, and there was a huge eye in each palm, as if he could see through everything.

Every step the monster took caused the earth to shake, smoke and dust to fly, and trees to fall.

Black smoke was surrounding him with every move he made.

Wherever the smoke touched, whether it was trees or grass, everything turned charred black, as if it had been polluted.

Several figures in black shirts were flying rapidly in the air, as if they were being chased by it.

Chen Huangpi recognized this monster.

It was one of the statues that the master had moved out of the main hall for worship.

One time, when Chen Huangpi was peeing at night, he saw it circling outside the Jingxian Temple. When it saw Chen Huangpi, it said that it was too cold outside and not as warm as inside the temple.

Chen Huangpi felt sorry for it and was about to invite it into the temple to sit for a while.

But the master suddenly appeared, and the latter was so scared that he quickly disappeared into the night.

I still remember what Master said: It has been contaminated. If you let it in, it will eat you. We will never allow a fourth human-eating creature to enter our Jingxian Temple.

Chen Huangpi was frightened and searched for a long time but couldn't find the other three cannibals.

After that, Chen Huangpi never saw this mutated statue again.

I didn't expect to meet it here today, and it ran out before it got dark.

And just then.

The mutated statue seemed to have sensed something, and the palm with eyes suddenly pointed towards Chen Huangpi's position.

"Hey! It still remembers me."

Chen Huangpi was startled and quickly jumped off the treetop, using all his strength to rush to Jingxian Temple.

And just then.

A voice sounded in Chen Huangpi's ears.

"Little doll, are you from around here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Huangpi felt his feet leave the ground.

When he turned around again, he saw the men in black shirts he had seen before appear on his left and right. One of them was an old man with a goatee, who was holding him up with one hand.

Chen Huangpi nodded obediently.

Someone was surprised and said, "I've heard that there are still remnants of the people living in these 100,000 mountains. I didn't expect it to be true."

Someone took a look at Chen Huangpi and said, "He has a strong body and is a cultivator in the Body Refining Realm."

Chen Huangpi didn't know what the body refining realm was.

He can't practice anyway, so whatever these people say is right.

"Stop talking nonsense, it's going to get dark soon, and this damn thing is going to get even scarier."

Someone turned around to take a look at the mutant statue that was chasing them.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

Obviously, when this ghost thing was chasing them, its speed was not so fast just now, but suddenly it was like it was injected with chicken blood, and it rushed hundreds of feet away in the blink of an eye. Its huge figure walked in the mountains and forests, as terrifying as a dragon turning over.

The old man with a goatee hurriedly asked Chen Huangpi: "Let me ask you, since you live nearby and are dressed as a Taoist child, there must be a Taoist temple nearby, right?"

"It's getting dark soon. Can you lend me your statue to protect me for the night?"

When night falls, this world seems to have changed its appearance and becomes full of evil.

Without the protection of gods, unless you have extremely high cultivation levels, you will not be able to withstand the countless evils that emerge from nowhere in the darkness.

This time, the old man and others went deep into the Ten Thousand Mountains. They originally wanted to invite a statue of god, but the moment they offered it up, it was swallowed by the evil statue.

I couldn't even send a message back.

The few people had never seen such a horrible thing before, they were so scared that they ran away as fast as their souls dared to.

Chen Huangpi actually wanted to remind them that the ones chasing them were the gods in his Taoist temple, but before he could say anything, the old man interrupted him.

"Don't worry, this is the only time. We will not linger tomorrow morning, and we will definitely reward you handsomely!"

Chen Huangpi smiled happily: "Okay, I'll lead the way for you."

After saying that, Chen Huangpi suddenly remembered something and looked alert.

"But what if you default on the debt?"

The old man and others suddenly became anxious.

The mutated statue behind him was closing in step by step. There was no time to worry about life and death.

"I am old enough to cheat you out of a child."

"That's hard to say, unless..."

"Unless something..."

Chen Huangpi shook his head and took out a yellowed booklet: "Unless it is written in black and white and signed, I won't believe it."

"Sign, I'll sign now!"

“You all have to sign.”

After they signed quickly, Chen Huangpi said happily: "I'll show you the way. Go, fly east."

With Chen Huangpi's guidance, the few people finally saw hope of survival.

They flew forward with all their might and swallowed energy-replenishing pills one after another, totally unconcerned about whether their dantian meridians could withstand it.

When the mutated god saw that Chen Huangpi was about to be taken away by several people, he roared to the sky in anger.

Chen Huangpi was so scared that he shrank into the arms of the old man with a goatee.

"Don't be afraid, kid. Even if my foundation is damaged, I will never let this ghost catch up with you."

"Uh-huh!"

Chen Huangpi nodded obediently.

Not far away, in the dark mountains.

A Taoist temple is looming in the mist.

When the few people stepped into the mountain gate, the sky suddenly darkened, and the whole world seemed to be covered with a black cloth. Not a single starlight could fall through. Only a hazy red moon was looming, as if someone was blinking.

The mutated statue stopped unwillingly, and the big mouth on its chest spit out a statue as tall as a person. The statue was like a living thing, with a frown on its brows, and its body was corroded by black smoke, making crackling sounds.

As soon as it was released, the statue immediately opened its eyes and tried to escape.

But before he could do anything, he was slapped to pieces by the mutant statue.

The latter roared and swallowed it completely into his mouth. While chewing it with a crunching sound, he watched Chen Huangpi and others walking into the mountain gate, and finally disappeared into the darkness unwillingly.
