Qiu Zu: From an apprentice in a medicine shop to an immortal ancestor

Chapter 154 [Demon-Suppressing Dragon Tiger Cavalry] Death of the Dragon King
Master is looking for me?

How many times did you look for it?
After hearing what his elder brother said, Qiu Zhen immediately stopped smiling and felt a little surprised.

Master An Jishi's way of teaching his disciples can be described as "extreme".

He starts by teaching in a cramming style, going beyond the syllabus and imparting the current and subsequent key points of cultivation, like pouring beans through a bamboo tube, without caring whether the disciple's comprehension is lower than his or whether he can learn it or not.

What follows is “free range”.

It truly is the practice of “The master leads you to the door, but the practice is up to you.”

Generally speaking, Master An Jishi lives a secluded life and rarely pays attention to worldly affairs.

In the past few months, Qiu Zhen followed his senior brothers and sisters to work in Guangling Pharmacy. Only they, the fellow brothers, had paid a visit to the master, and they had not seen the master An Jishi come to see them.

Master An Jishi must have something to ask him.

Thinking of this, Qiu Zhen did not delay and left the Qiuzhen Valley.

Over the past year, with Qiu Zhen's support, the herbal medicine industry in Qiu Village has developed well, and the people have become more prosperous, raising cattle, horses, mules and a large number of livestock.

Qiu Zhen casually took a horse and drove towards Qingmu County.

At the gate of the county town.

The black-robed runners of the Qingmu County government and the demon-suppressing warriors of the Demon-Suppressing Bureau were fully armed, wearing armor and holding sharp weapons, occupying both sides of the official road, forming a long dragon.

The ten-mile official road is bustling with colorful flags and crowds of people.

"Boom!"

There was a sound of horse hooves.

On the official road in the far suburbs of Qingmu, a group of soldiers wearing black armor were guarding a chariot, which was galloping from afar.

Each of these warriors galloping over was as big and strong as an iron tower. Their armor radiated a metallic luster. They gave off a fierce aura and strong blood. Each of them was at least a fourth-level acquired martial artist, and some even had a fifth-level martial artist.

Martial artists who have reached the fourth or fifth level of the acquired realm would be well-known figures in small places.

But now, they appear in piles.

In fact, the aura of these soldiers is much stronger than that of ordinary martial artists. Each of them exudes a murderous aura, and they are full of murderous intent, as if they are all "evil stars" who have been on the battlefield for a long time.

Even the horses they rode were extraordinary. They were covered in armor, had horns on their heads, and were incredibly fast.

It was actually the "Dragon Scale Horse" with the blood of a monster.

Elite!

The real elite soldiers of the imperial court.

There was a commotion at the city gate.

Upon seeing this, Wei Tanzhi, the commander of the Demon Suppression Division, and Liu Zhongchang, the magistrate of Qingmu County, each led their own officials, as well as the gentry and common people of Qingmu City, to line the streets to welcome them.

"Your humble servant, Wei Tanzhi, the commander of the Demon Suppression Division of Changle Prefecture, greets the general."

"Your humble servant, Liu Zhongchang, the magistrate of Qingmu County, pays respect to the general."

"No need to be so polite, just go away and don't disturb others."

A deep voice was heard from the carriage.

Immediately, the black-armored cavalry escorted the carriage into the city without saying a word.

Wei Tanzhi and Liu Zhongchang looked at each other, and without saying a word, followed him.

"A big shot has arrived at Aoki Castle."

At the city gate, Qiu Zhen happened to witness this scene and was amazed.

However, he didn't think much about it.

The city gate reopened, and he immediately entered the city and headed straight for An Mansion.

The study in the side courtyard of the An Mansion.

"Master, I'm here."

An Jishi held a scroll in his hand, greeted Qiu Zhen, and nodded slightly:
"We entered the city today and saw the [Demon-Suppressing Dragon and Tiger Cavalry]?"

Qiu Zhen was startled when he heard this, but he quickly reacted:

"Yes, Master. What is the origin of the [Demon Suppressing Dragon Tiger Cavalry]?"

"The [Demon Suppression Dragon and Tiger Cavalry] is directly under the Demon Suppression General Department, which is responsible for patrolling the country. There are a total of eight teams to suppress demons and evil spirits in all directions of the world. Each [Demon Suppression Dragon and Tiger Cavalry] is led by a Demon Suppression General. They are the elite of the elite of the Demon Suppression Department." An Jishi smiled and added:

"Every demon-suppressing general is a martial arts master, with supernatural powers."

"I see!"

Qiu Zhen suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Wei Tanzhi and Liu Zhongchang had been so respectful just now.

He had a vague idea of ​​why the [Demon-Suppressing Dragon and Tiger Cavalry] arrived in Qingmu, but he did not speak out.

"Master, the Demon Suppression General is on a tour of duty, so why is Qingmu here?"

"This is why I came here to find you."

After saying that, An Jishi didn't say anything else, but looked around at Qiu Zhen.

Not long after.

Perhaps he had noticed something, An Jishi looked surprised:
"Xiao Zhen, are you mentally hurt?"

"This"

Qiu Zhen was slightly surprised.

What a sharp eyesight.

In fact, his "primordial spirit was injured", but his body and soul were unharmed, and his basic martial arts and magical powers were not affected.

At first glance, it would be hard for an outsider not to notice that he was injured.

However, Master An Jishi saw it at a glance.

"Indeed, I am injured."

Qiu Zhen couldn't argue, so he had to bite the bullet and admit:

"Master, I don't know what happened. I was in seclusion a few days ago and got injured for no apparent reason."

Are you inexplicably upset?
An Jishi was moved when he heard this, and asked again with burning eyes:
"Seven or eight days ago, when you were in seclusion, did you see any strange phenomena in the world?"

"No."

Qiu Zhen denied it on the spot without even thinking about it.

Of course he saw it.

The giant palm that covered the sky was coming towards him.

But he couldn't admit it.

Fairy Yunrou said that only martial arts masters and spiritual cultivators can get a glimpse of the "Giant Palm that Covers the Sky".

Seeing his master An Jishi asking questions aggressively, Qiu Zhen couldn't help but feel guilty. He immediately changed his mind and asked back:

"Master, what happened? I was in seclusion for no apparent reason, but I got hurt mentally."

"I only heard it from others before, so I'm not sure."

An Jishi's eyes fell on Qiu Zhen, and he said leisurely:

"Now that I see you're injured, I'm afraid the rumors are true."

Qiu Zhen: "Master, what's the rumor?"

"Rumors about Yulongshan Jun!"

An Jishi said, looking towards the mountain:
"In the past few days, you must have heard that there have been riots in various places in the Demon Abyss. Many powerful demons have changed their habits and even suppressed their original obsessions and poured into Changle Mansion. This is extremely rare, but it is not the first time it has happened."

Not the first time this happened?
Qiu was really curious and had a vague understanding:
"The last time it happened, was it related to Lord Long?"

"Not bad!"

An Jishi nodded and said:
"The Jade Dragon King was once one of the most powerful earth gods in the world, a true mortal power who was invincible. Suddenly one day, the Dragon King died, and then the demons and evil spirits of the Demon Abyss emerged one after another, claiming to slay demons and exorcise monsters. This is exactly the same as the current situation."

"Rumor has it that the Dragon King touched some kind of taboo, which led to a murderous disaster. This time, the inner demons and evil spirits are rioting. I think there must be movement in Yulong Mountain again."

“I don’t really believe these rumors.”

An Jishi looked strange:
"But, you suddenly became mentally ill for no reason a few days ago. Everything is too coincidental. You have a great destiny."

After saying this, An Jishi may have thought of something, and his eyes fell on Qiu Zhen:
"Xiao Zhen, can I take the Mountain God Seal with me?"
