Chapter 39 Wuwu
The Master Chen mentioned by Xiao Wangsun is Chen Shi’s grandfather.

Back then, outside Jinghu Villa, Chen Shi heard him call his grandfather "Master Chen".

Chen Shi hurriedly thanked Xiao Wangsun and asked in confusion, "Grandpa also knows these things?"

Xiao Wangsun said calmly, "Although his talent and knowledge are not as good as mine, they are not far behind. He will naturally understand."

Chen Shi was confused. He used to think that his grandfather was just an ordinary talisman master, but the appearance of Granny Sha and Xiao Wangsun made him feel that his grandfather was not that simple.

But if grandpa knew all this, why didn’t he teach him?

"How come you went out at night and ended up in such a situation?" asked Xiao Wangsun.

Chen Shi told the story of how the Zhao family sent someone to plot against him, how he killed them in return, and how he broke into Huangyang Village to wipe out the roots. He said with embarrassment, "I was stupid. I thought that since Sanwang was dead, I had to kill this person to avenge him. As a result, I kept chasing him until now, and ended up putting myself in danger."

"The Zhao guest's hair is covered with tassels, and the Wu hook is as bright as frost and snow... After three cups of wine, a promise is made, and the Five Mountains seem nothing to you. You are quite chivalrous."

Xiao Wangsun showed an admiring expression and said, "Your technique is beyond the ordinary and far superior to the Tianxin Zhengqi Jue taught in the private school. Tianxin Zhengqi Jue is just a low-level technique taught to scholars. The greatest function of this technique is to nourish qi, build a foundation, refine a shrine, condense the heart of heaven, and obtain the blessing of the outer true god to descend to the divine fetus. But your technique is different. It refines qi, body, and mind, and strengthens oneself. Even I have never seen a few techniques that can compare with it. Your technique... did you get it from the tomb of the True King?"

His sharp eyes fell on Chen Shi's face and looked directly into Chen Shi's eyes, as if he could see through Chen Shi's eyes and reach his heart to see whether Chen Shi's words were true or false.

Chen Shi said calmly: "I got this technique from the True King's Tomb, but Uncle Yangjiao stopped me from going any further and getting the complete technique. If you think it's good, I'll write it down and give you a copy."

Xiao Wangsun was stunned: "Write one for me? What do you want to get from me?"

Chen Shi shook his head and said, "You are my grandfather's friend, and you just gave me advice without asking for anything in return. I don't have anything good to give you. Since you like it, I'll give it to you. I don't want to exchange it for anything."

Xiao Wangsun stared into his eyes, as if to see whether he was sincere or hypocritical.

After a while, Xiao Wangsun shook his head and said, "I don't want your technique. Although your technique is good, I have seen several techniques of similar quality. Moreover, my cultivation level is already high now. If I turn around and learn other people's techniques, the gains will outweigh the losses. However..."

He paused and smiled, "You are very interesting. The roads are hard to distinguish at night, and evil spirits are everywhere. With your strength, you won't make it to the village alive. I have something else tonight, so I can't send you back for now. I will have time after I finish this matter. If you can wait, I will send you back. Can you wait?"

Chen Shi got in the car and said with a smile, "I can wait."

He looked around, and saw green spots of light and red lanterns everywhere in the darkness. They looked like evil eyes, waiting for him to be left alone.

If I go back alone, even if I know the way, I'm afraid I won't be able to walk for long before I'll be eaten by these evil spirits!

He was curious. It was late at night and dangerous everywhere. Why did Xiao Wangsun go out to do business at this time?
The driver swung his long whip, and the whip made a curl, whipping the air, making a crisp sound that shook the valley.

The four horses cheered up and pulled the chariot. Clouds of gas burst out from the wheels and actually raised the chariot several inches, allowing the wheels to avoid the rocks.

The four horses started off, and they walked briskly with the wind under their feet.

Chen Shi looked at it and found that the horse's four legs had no armor symbols tied to them, but it could still step on the breeze. It was very strange. He thought that it was not a purebred horse, but a different species.

"Yes, the Jiama Talisman was originally designed to imitate the running of a horse, supplemented by the wind and cloud characters of the Six Ding and Six Jia. They are horses with the blood of divine beasts, so of course they run fast." Chen Shi thought to himself.

There was silence in the carriage, with only the sound of wheels and the clatter of horses' hooves.

After a while, Xiao Wangsun said: "You have good skills and a good character. What's more rare is that you have high talent. Even if your divine fetus is cut off, you will definitely achieve something in the future."

"Really?" Chen Shi's eyes lit up.

Xiao Wangsun said calmly: "Why should I lie to you?"

Chen Shi was extremely excited; he really needed encouragement.

Since he woke up from his deep sleep, he has been trying to figure out how to practice, how to preserve his true energy, how to get rid of being a cripple, and how to rebuild the shrine. However, he has no friends, Hei Guo can't talk, his grandfather won't encourage him, his godmother is a stone, and Zhu Xiucai can only talk nonsense.

He can only think about it and try it alone.

If you fail in your trial and error, no one will know if you die alone in the wild.

But Chen Shi is willing to take the risk!
He wants to become strong, he doesn't want to be a useless person all his life, he wants to give his grandfather a stable and prosperous old age!

No one recognized him before, but now he has been recognized by Xiao Wangsun. One can imagine how happy he is.

The carriage was traveling on the quiet post road in the night. On both sides were ancient trees illuminated by the moonlight, and their shadows were mottled like the claws of a monster.

Xiao Wangsun looked at the moonlight outside and said slowly, "There was a man in the past whose talent was not very high. He did not build his foundation until he was twelve years old, and completed it only when he was fifteen years old. The so-called hundred-day foundation building means that a cultivator only needs a hundred days to build his foundation and then he can enter the next realm, but he needed three or four years, which shows the difference in talent. Later, he passed the examination to become a scholar with great difficulty, and obtained the gift of God, and was able to cultivate into a divine fetus. But divine fetuses are also divided into different levels, and his divine fetus is the lowest level, called a fantasy fetus, which means a dream bubble. Do you think such a stupid person can achieve great success?"

Chen Shi shook his head.

The divine fetus represents the degree of recognition of the true god for the qualifications and talents of the cultivator. The lower the divine fetus, the lower the qualifications and talents of the cultivator.

The lowest grade phantom fetus shows how poor its aptitude and talent are, only slightly higher than that of an ordinary person.

Xiao Wangsun said: "This person has a stubborn temper, is very stubborn, and very persistent. He thinks that he will not waste his life. His classmates and colleagues have already cultivated to the stage of transformation of spirit, and have reached the stage of golden elixir and the stage of Yuanying, but he is still in the stage of divine fetus. But he still did not give up. He repeatedly polished the divine fetus and repeatedly cultivated the basics. Ten years later, he entered the stage of transformation of spirit and achieved golden elixir. At this time, his old friend was already a strong man in the stage of refinement of spirit, and the gap between him and the other party was getting bigger and bigger. But in the next ten years, this stupid man finally caught up with his old friend. Ten years later, he accumulated a lot of experience and became famous all over the world with his nearly invincible magic power, which amazed the world."

He paused and continued, "His phantom fetus was almost equivalent to nothing, but he relied on his own perseverance and persistence to achieve great success. If he can do it, so can you."

Chen Shi was excited and looked at Xiao Wangsun with hope. He said, "Could it be that the person you are talking about is you?"

Xiao Wangsun shook his head, his expression proud: "I have been practicing since I was young, and I formed a fetus at the age of nine. I obtained one of the most powerful divine fetuses. I was famous throughout the world when I was young. How could I be so stupid?"

Chen Shi was stunned and stammered, "Then who is this person..."

"This stupid guy's surname is Chen, his name is Yindu, and he is your grandfather." Xiao Wangsun said indifferently.

Chen Shi was extremely surprised. Is his grandfather really that powerful?
He didn't have much contact with Xiao Wangsun, but he could see that Xiao Wangsun was a proud and arrogant person. If one wanted to get his praise, one had to be exceptionally outstanding.

If a person's magic power is praised by a figure like Xiao Wangsun as being almost invincible, then his magic power must be truly invincible!

However, no matter how you look at it, my grandfather is an old man who is about to die. His greatest skill is drawing talismans, and he relies on this to support his family.

How does he have such nearly invincible magical powers?
How many things is grandpa hiding from him?
"No matter how he was in the past, grandpa is old now." Chen Shi said silently in his heart, "He is old now. No matter how powerful he was when he was young, he is just an old man in his twilight years now. He has not even been eating properly recently. He needs someone to take care of him."

The chariot drove into the foothills, and the road ahead gradually became rugged and difficult to travel, but the four horses continued to move forward as if they were walking on flat ground.
After an unknown amount of time, the carriage arrived at the foot of a mountain. There was actually a city here, brightly lit at night.

Chen Shi was extremely surprised. He was the local boss of Qianyang Mountain and had traveled all over the country with his grandfather. Where in Qianyang Mountain had he not been?

When did a city appear in the mountains?
The carriage drove into this strange city. The city walls were very high and the wall surface was extremely smooth. The city towers were even higher. The words "Wuwang" were written on the city gate.

Chen Shi was sitting in the car, looking to both sides, and saw green-faced, fang-toothed monsters standing on both sides of the road. They had ferocious faces and held weapons such as axes and forks.

His heart skipped a beat, and when he looked at the residents coming and going in the city, most of them had their intestines ruptured, their heads cut off and their feet missing; most of them were dead.

Occasionally there are complete people, but it is impossible to tell whether they are dead or alive.

“Is this a city of the underworld?”

He felt uneasy.

He looked around. This place was full of lights, wine, and women, and the sound of laughter and joy could be heard constantly. It was nothing like the underworld he had been to before.

Chen Shi had died before and had been to the underworld, where there was haze everywhere and people were zombies walking in the fog, being eaten as delicacies by unknown beings hidden in the fog.

But here, it seems like a happy city. There are no disturbances from the world of the living and no dangers from the underworld. The ghosts are very happy here.

"This place is called Wuwang. In Wuwang, evil ways are not tolerated and deceit is not allowed. In this city, no one is allowed to lie."

Xiao Wangsun said, "The reason why I met someone here is because of this. The person who came here is good at lying. If she is not here, I will not believe a word she said. By the way, you can't tell lies here. If you lie, your tongue will be pulled out."

Chen Shi blinked his eyes. Can’t he tell lies now that he is here?
"Everyone in the village calls me Little Honest. I never lie. I will definitely feel at home in this Wuwang City."

Having said that, Chen Shi still didn't dare to say it out loud, and could only think about it in his heart.

Because as soon as he thought of this, he felt a strange force pulling his tongue!
Fortunately, he was just thinking about it. If he had said it out loud, he would have lost his tongue.

"I'm definitely not attracted to that girl!" someone shouted on the side of the road.

Chen Shi looked in the direction of the sound and saw a quarreling couple. As soon as the husband said this, he opened his mouth involuntarily, and his tongue flew out of his mouth and fell to the ground.

A dog jumped out and picked up the tongue that was jumping around on the ground.

Chen Shi shuddered, but saw that the people around him all started laughing.

He noticed that many of them also had no tongues in their mouths.

"They had their tongues cut out for lying."

Chen Shi shuddered. This city really couldn't lie!
"This city is designed to deal with honest people like me!" he thought to himself.

The carriage brought them to a restaurant and stopped. A waiter came out quickly and helped park the car in the backyard.

Xiao Wangsun went downstairs and, under the guidance of the shop assistant, came to a private seat on the second floor, next to the window sill.

Chen Shi looked carefully and found that the waiter was no ordinary person. He actually had four arms, each holding a plate, and entertained the guests attentively.

"What kind of good tea is there to warm the mind? I want to entertain guests." asked Xiao Wangsun.

"Master Xiao, we have some new Lingnan raw Pu'er recently. We killed some Lingnan merchants and robbed them. They taste great. Would you like to try some?"

Xiao Wangsun nodded slightly and waved his hand.

The waiter immediately went to make tea.

When the tea came, Xiao Wangsun took out a ten-liang silver ingot and placed it on the table. Chen Shi looked at the silver and felt it looked familiar.

Xiao Wangsun said, "I picked it up on the road. I don't know who left it in the middle of the post road."

Chen Shi felt aggrieved and said nothing.

The waiter took the money and served the customer even more attentively, serving a plate of preserved fruits and a plate of preserved meat.

Xiao Wangsun drank his tea, put down the cup, and said softly, "Here it comes."

Chen Shi looked down and saw a tall, thin ghost holding a green lantern, walking towards the teahouse in the city. The ghost was about 170 to 180 feet tall, skinny, hunched over, and looked hungry.

Under the lantern, a woman in red, wearing a rain hat and veil, was walking in the light.

The lantern was held high. It was hollow inside, and a beam of light came out from the hole below, falling on the ground and forming a light spot of ten feet in radius.

The woman in red clothes and black rain hat walked in the light spot very properly.

She has a graceful and charming figure, especially her slender waist, which can be held in one hand.

Chen Shi couldn't help but take a few more glances.

The woman entered the teahouse. The sound of people climbing the stairs was heard. Then a woman in red came into view. She glanced at Chen Shi from behind her veil and walked towards him.

She had a slender waist and round hips. She leaned slightly to one side, sat down slowly, took off her rain hat and veil, revealing a pretty face.

She glanced at Chen Shi and chuckled, looking very charming.

"Little brother, do you think I'm pretty? Do you want to sleep with me?"

——Thanks to the leader of Muggle 1 for the support, the boss is so generous!
