Chapter 276 Huang Huo Tu: I just want to live an ordinary life, why is it so difficult?
“Commissioner, this is my resignation.”

In the director’s office, Huang Huitu handed in his resignation.

The director was bald, holding a thermos cup, shaking the bright red wolfberries inside, and said regretfully:

“Fire and Earth, you are a very good police officer.”

“You have killed the murderer this time and have performed a great deed. The higher-ups have already announced that you will be appointed as deputy. I will retire in a few years, and the rest of the year will be your stage. Do you really not want to consider it?”

Huang Huotu shook his head and said without any nostalgia: “Director, I have let it go. Family is the most important thing.”

As he spoke, his tone was a little low, and he said self-deprecatingly: “You know, although I stood on the moral ground of law and duty and there was nothing wrong with that, he was my daughter’s uncle, and my colleagues all criticized him behind his back.”

“A person who is too cold-blooded and ruthless is only suitable to be a sharp blade, not a commander.”

“Besides, the knife has already made a cut, and I’m tired.”

The director was silent and sighed.

“Okay, if you’ve made up your mind, I won’t try to keep you. But as long as you’re willing to come back, I promise that I’ll keep your position for you within three years.”

Huang Huotu smiled and didn’t care too much about the promise.

He pushed the door open and looked at the white clouds running in the sky, feeling relaxed.

There are no endless cases to deal with, nor are there any weird and mysterious things happening. He has already decided to take Qingfang and Meimei out to have some fun.

He wanted to save his broken marriage, and he wanted to be a good father.

He walked out of the door briskly and saw dark red marks on the ground. That was the blood that flowed when the murderer was shot yesterday.

“Xie Yali, have you really become an immortal?”

Huang Hutu couldn’t help but think of the flying fairy scene he saw yesterday, and it seemed that he could still hear the ethereal sound of the skeleton-faced goddess in his ears.

It is sacred and weird, like a light hymn or the wailing of thousands of ghosts.

He shuddered unconsciously, and goose bumps appeared on his arms.

“If becoming an immortal means turning into a ghost, I would rather be a mortal for the rest of my life.”

After smoothing out the goose bumps, Huang Huitu thought again of the old man who appeared last.

He has white hair and a youthful face, and looks otherworldly, like a sage who has attained enlightenment.

Compared with the one seen in the official residence, the old Taoist priest who has survived since the Chunhua period has a more spiritual temperament.

It is a kind of transcendent and free-spirited attitude that has witnessed the ups and downs of life in the mortal world and understood the changes of life and death. It is the accumulation of years.

“Those who kill will not die, and those who give birth will not live?”

He muttered the words left by the old man and took out a decree to look at it.

The decree was made entirely of fire jade, with a soft texture. On the front was engraved a treasure vase, emitting a hazy glow. On the back was engraved a palace, with a line of words inside:

Command everything and lead all the doctors.

In the corner of the law, there is also a name: Xiao Sanxiao.

“Doctor General, smile three times? This looks like an identity token.”

Huang Huitu was silent. He just felt that this was a hot potato and wanted to throw it away.

After experiencing Xie Yali’s bizarre murder-to-become-immortal case, he now avoids these mysterious things like a snake seeing realgar.

In his mind, spiritual practice means doing good deeds, accumulating virtue, and practicing Zen meditation, but it is not about sending others to hell and achieving self-improvement.

This is an evil practice and is against the law and discipline.

He didn’t know whether the old Taoist priest from the Chunhua period was a similar existence, but even Sheng Zuchang hadn’t achieved anything famous, so he didn’t think he would be that lucky person.

Besides, he is already forty years old. He is not a virgin and does not have any special talents.

The passionate young man who once longed for the path of martial arts immortality had his unrealistic fantasies crushed by time and reality.

“At thirty, one is independent; at forty, one is free from doubts; at fifty, one knows the will of heaven.”

“Confucius is right. I was confused in the first half of my life. It is only now that I can see clearly what I really need.”

He smiled carefreely, put the decree on the ground, bowed and said: “Master, you must have some skills, you must be able to hear what I say.”

“I don’t know what the Taoist priest meant by leaving the decree behind, but I just want to live well with my wife and daughter, and never want to have anything to do with spiritual practice again.”

After saying this, he turned and left.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, the decree suddenly rose into the air and shone brightly.

An old and deep voice followed.

“Yellow Fire Earth, the sky is about to change, the era of global high martial arts is about to come, and the Five Hells becoming immortal is just the beginning.”

“Come, I will answer your questions at Zhenxian Temple.”

The token hung in the air and flew back into Huang Huitu’s arms.

His heart tightened and he felt a little overwhelmed.

“I just want to live an ordinary life, have a happy family and a happy life. Why do these things always happen to me?”

“Is the heavens about to change? The world’s most powerful martial artist?”

Huang Huitu heard a shocking change in the words. He felt a huge wave of pressure and began to smoke unconsciously again.

The cigarette butt flickered, and soon he finished the cigarette. He said in annoyance:
“What the hell is this? I’ve already made a promise with Meimei to quit smoking. Sigh.”

He sighed, started the car and drove straight to Zhenxian Temple.

Out of habit from many years of work, he hated any truth that was covered up and he wanted to make everything clear.

Ding Dong
Central World Building, as the elevator reached the top floor, Huang Huotu walked out holding a decree.

As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he immediately saw the dark yellow shield and the two golden-armored gods standing behind the shield.

“Stop, you are not allowed to trespass.” King Kong stretched out his hand to stop them.

Huang Huotu took out the decree and said carefully: “The Taoist priest who gave me the token asked me to come here to find him.”

“The decree of the Palace Master?”

The two Vajra were extremely surprised. They looked at each other, and the coldness on their faces disappeared. They showed a friendly smile, made the treasure bottle seal with their hands, and said to Huang Huotu:

“Since you are the one favored by the Palace Master, you can come in. Please come in.”

The protective shield opened, Huang Huitu walked in, and was shocked when he saw the building within a building.

He knew that Lin Daosheng and Huang Yifeng had moved the Zhenxian Temple from the mainland, but he had not expected that this Taoist temple was so large and filled with the smell of time and decay.

After walking around the incense burner at the door, Huang Huitu stepped into the gate and saw an old man with white hair and a youthful face sitting on a cushion.

The old man was wearing a Taoist robe with a treasure bottle mark on it, and was looking at him with a smile.

“Greetings, Taoist Priest, here is your decree.” Huang Huitu bowed and handed over the decree in his hand.

The old man waved his hand, and the decree flew up and disappeared into his sleeves.

“I am the Palace Master of Doctor Palace of Pingshan Holy Land. I have been waiting for you here for two days.”

Huang Huotu was shocked: “You are just a mortal, how can you be so virtuous and capable?”

Xiao San smiled and said, “Huang Huotu, you are nothing special, or you are special only to Xie Yali.”

“In my eyes, you are not even more malleable than a child, but you have a very special advantage that no one else can replace.”

Huang Hutu was stunned, feeling a little overwhelmed.

Xiao Sanxiao stood up, walked to the window, overlooking the busy city, and said lightly:
“I told you earlier that the world was about to change, and it wasn’t without reason.”

“Please enlighten me, Taoist priest.” “No matter how much I tell you, it is not as good as seeing it with your own eyes.”

Xiao Sanxiao flew up into the sky, with a dazzling mysterious light all around him, and a ray of light fell in front of Huang Huitu.

“Come on, I’ll take you to see what the change in the sky is.”

Huang Huitu looked at the light in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped forward carefully.

It felt like walking on flat ground, like stepping on hard stone slabs, without any sense of illusion.

Huang Huitu was surprised. If Xie Yali had such means before, he would not have killed people through hallucinations. The bullet would have hit the flesh and blood body.

However, if this mysterious light was used for defense at this moment, not to mention bullets, even heavy weapons would be useless.

Xiao Sanxiao saw Huang Huitu’s confusion, and he chuckled: “It’s still a long way to Mount Tai, so let’s talk on the way.”

boom!
A ray of brilliant light shot up into the sky.

In the light of escape, Huang Huitu looked at the city rapidly receding under his feet. After a while, he saw the strait and was shocked.

Xiao San chuckled and said, “This is the art of flying and escaping. It’s nothing special.”

Huang Huotu said with emotion: “In the morning, I travel to the North Sea and in the evening, I rest in the deep sea. It’s just like this.”

“Mortals can also achieve this kind of means.”

“But he is not as free and easy as the Taoist priest. As soon as his mind moves, he can fly into the sky.”

Huang Huotu flattered him for a few words and then brought the topic back on track: “Master, Xie Yali only knows some deceptive magic. His body is no different from that of an ordinary person, but he can become an immortal. How is that possible?”

Xiao Sanxiao did not give a direct answer, but asked back: “Before answering this question, I want to ask you a question.”

“Taoist Master, please speak.”

“What do you think is outside the world?”

Huang Huotu was stunned, not understanding what he meant: “Outside the earth, that is naturally the boundless universe and starry sky.”

Xiao Sanxiao shook his head: “No, I am asking about this world, not this planet.”

“this world?”

Huang Huotu frowned, “I can’t answer the question asked by the Taoist priest. But the Buddha once said, ‘One flower is a world, one leaf is a bodhi’, and the Taoist scriptures also say, ‘There are thirty-six layers of heaven’, so this must be the truth.”

Xiao Sanxiao nodded: “Yes, that’s right, there are always people better than you, and there are always things better than you.”

“And I, the old man, come from Hongyuan Baopingtian, which is outside the world of transcendence. I am a person from outside the heavens and do not belong to this world.”

“It’s unbelievable.”

Huang Hutu was a little stunned. This answer was more shocking than seeing an alien.

After a while, he came back to his senses.

At this moment, the two had crossed the strait and began to enter the airspace above the mainland.

Huang Huotu asked, “In other words, what Xie Yali practices is not the same as what the Taoist priest practices?”

“You are wrong. It is the same thing. We are all practitioners, but we take different paths.”

Xiao Sanxiao took out a book and handed it to Huang Huitu: “Xie Yali’s Dharma name is Miaoli, and he belongs to the Xianyou School. He practices the Dixian Method, which is the volume of “The Five Prisons Immortal Method” in your hand.”

“Xianxian?” Huang Huotu was puzzled: “What is this? I only talked about gods and immortals.”

“There are five kinds of immortals: heaven, earth, man, gods, and ghosts. The ghost immortals belong to the ghost immortals. They are an external sect, and they take an unconventional approach. You also understand the process of cultivation.”

“It’s really weird.”

Huang Huitu’s scalp tingled whenever he thought of that strange way of death.

Sending people to hell is such an evil method. He just can’t accept it.

Xiao San smiled and said, “Your world is in the last days of the Dharma, and the correct way of practicing Qi cannot be practiced. Only the Xianyou sect can still practice.”

“This sect upholds the cycle of hell. Although the practice process is somewhat cruel, it still follows the Taoist idea of ​​saving people without limit. Their ancestor Huang Shang has done immeasurable merits and virtues. Even I admire him.”

“Huang Shang is the founder? The one with double pupils in the Song Dynasty?”

Huang Hutu exclaimed. He still remembered Sheng Zuchang’s explanation. He was the first Taoist priest in historical records who killed a man-monster and became an immortal.

Xiao Sanxiao nodded: “Yes, it is him, you will see him in the future. Now let’s talk about the change in the sky.”

“Master, please speak.” Huang Huitu said seriously.

“I mentioned earlier that I am from Hongyuan Baopingtian, which is a cave world beyond all the heavens and worlds. The creator is ‘Hongyuan Wanmiao Daoyi Zhenjun’. Here is the scripture. Calm down and listen to me recite it for you.”

Huang Huotu took the scripture and immediately focused his attention.

Xiao Sanxiao made the Aquarius seal with his hands, his expression was solemn, and his lips were pursed.

“In the past, in the Aquarius Heaven, the True Lord Daoyi sat on a unicorn, opened up the source of all wonders.”

As the scriptures were chanted, Huang Huotu seemed to see an incomparably sacred being creating the world, educating all living beings, and spreading the glory of immortality throughout the heavens and the worlds.

This is an extremely magnificent picture, majestic and shocking, which makes people feel awe involuntarily.

After finishing reciting the “Hong Yuan Sutra”, Xiao Sanxiao went on to tell about the heavens and myriad worlds that Pingshan currently ruled, which made Huang Huotu dumbfounded.

If Xiao Sanxiao had not told him that next year on the Ghost Festival, Taoist Master Daoyi would descend to this world to liberate people from hell, he would not have believed it at all.

This situation is like the arrival of Pangu and Nuwa in ancient mythology, which is simply incredible.

When Xiao Sanxiao stopped talking, Huang Huitu felt his mouth dry and he couldn’t help swallowing.

He asked tremblingly, “Master, does this mean that Pingshan Holy Land will spread immortality in this world and rule the world?”

“No, it’s not the immortal method, but the martial arts.”

“Broken Vajra is only a prerequisite for practicing the ‘Eight Vajra Method’, one of the methods of Pingshan. In this world of the last days, without spiritual energy, the Qi training method cannot be practiced.”

咕咚
Huang Huotu was terrified: “So this world’s most powerful martial artist is a natural disaster?”

“Yes, the first War God Temple has been established on Mount Tai. Shenzhou has gained a one-year head start, which is enough to create a huge gap.”

“From now on, the world will be unified, the great power will belong to itself, King Kong will suppress the world, and all existing laws will be overturned and rebuilt.”

In an instant, Huang Huitu thought of the shocking incident, and a shudder rushed from his tailbone to the top of his head.

His heart was beating like a drum and he felt that the future was in chaos.

With extraordinary power ahead, no one can escape it.

He has a sharp weapon in his mind and a murderous intention.

He always believed that all people have bad natures and that destruction has always been rooted in human genes.

Everyone has dreamed of gaining amazing power, but what will inevitably surge along with it is uncontrollable desire.

This kind of future where everyone is extraordinary will return to the age of the survival of the fittest. If there is no overwhelming force to suppress it, the world will be in chaos.

“I just want to live an ordinary life.”

Huang Huotu gave a bitter smile and was about to ask a question, but he heard Xiao Sanxiao say, “We have arrived at Mount Tai.”

He looked up and saw a huge mountain in front of him. It was Mount Tai, the first of the Five Great Mountains.

What is even more eye-catching is that on the top of the mountain stands an extremely tall and huge palace.

The area around the palace was now filled with young and strong men standing in teams, listening to the Vajra’s teachings, the sound of which shook the sky.

The mountain road farther away was also crowded with people transporting supplies. They were so densely packed that they looked like ants moving before the rain.
