I walked up to Master Kongan and wanted to explain.
But Master Kong'an waved her hand, indicating that I didn't need to say anything, and then she looked around at everyone with her cold eyes, and the room suddenly became quiet.
"When did the association have a rule that people from the Ma family in the north cannot become the president?"
Master Kong An said coldly: "Now the Yin and Yang world is about to face a catastrophe. If Cheng Yi can be elected as the president, it will help us unite with the Ma family in the north to deal with it together. As righteous people, you can only Thinking about competing for the president’s selfish interests really disappoints me!”
Everyone bowed their heads and remained silent, no one dared to refute.
At this moment, the leader of the Shangqing Sect, who had been silent until now, suddenly stood up.
"Let me say a few words."
"I think what Master Kong'an said is very reasonable. Whether it is the Ma family in the north or the Yin and Yang world in the south, they are originally the right path to eliminate demons and protect the way. You should not be divided into superiors and inferiors. Especially now, with the crazy infiltration of wizard groups , it is necessary to unite with the Northern Ma family to deal with it together."
"As for Cheng Yi, even though this is the first time we have met, I feel that this young man has an extraordinary temperament and a very decent person. Coupled with his previous achievements, I think the master's recommendation of him as the president is also for the sake of the association. future considerations.”
Although there are many sects in the Yin Yang Association, the four main sects are Tianlian Sect, Shangqing Sect, Maoshan Sect and Cangyun Sect.
Now the leader of Maoshan cannot come for some reason, and the leader of the Shangqing Sect and the Tianlian Sect, as well as the current president Master Kongan, have clearly expressed their support for me. Naturally, the rest of the people do not dare to say anything more.
"What Master Lu said makes sense. The president of our Yin Yang Association has always been chosen by those who are able. If this little friend Su Hao has enough ability, it is not impossible for him to serve as the president."
Seeing this, Taoist Master Xuankong also said: "But now, the election is not over after all. Several candidates have to complete the next tasks. The one who completes it first will be the winner, right?"
Master Kong'an nodded: "Yes, let's proceed to the last step of this conference and select the mission."
After listening to the fourth sister’s explanation, I finally realized that it turns out that the election process of the Yin Yang Association and the process of selecting speakers at the Wutang Conference are very similar. That is, candidates are recommended first, and then several candidates are asked to draw lots to choose the task. The first one Only those who complete the task can win the position of president.
Soon, a subordinate of the association came over dragging a plate with a row of bamboo sticks lying flat on it. On the back of each bamboo stick, there was a task written on it.
As the candidate with the most votes, Taoist Priest Xuanming had priority. He walked over and fumbled on the bamboo sticks one by one. Then he picked the middle one. He took it over and looked at it. He raised his eyebrows and showed a proud smile.
Obviously, the task he got was supposed to be relatively simple, that's why he was so proud.
After finishing the task, Taoist Master Xuanming gave me a fierce look, then turned and left.
Later, the Shangqing sent a disciple to draw lots. He took a bamboo stick and took a look. There was no change in his expression, and he immediately went to perform the task.
Finally it was my turn, and I saw there were seven or eight bamboo sticks on the plate, so I just picked up the one on the side regardless.
When I turned it over and looked at it, I was stunned because there were only two words written on it: Po Ni.
What does it mean? I scratched my head and thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out, so I could only come over and ask Master Kong'an.
"Master Tai, the time and place of this task are not clearly stated. It's just two words. How can I complete it?"
Master Kong An glanced out of the corner of his eye, and his face suddenly became solemn: "Cheng Yi, it seems that your luck is not very good, and you actually got the most difficult task."
The head of Xuankong also noticed my mission and couldn't help but smile proudly: "Little friend Cheng Yi is extremely talented. It shouldn't be a problem to complete this mission. Master, you should have confidence in him."
Although he was expressing relief on the surface, the teasing in his words was not concealed at all.
Master Kong'an didn't pay attention, and just warned me in a deep voice: "Cheng Yi, you must be careful this time, don't be careless."
I was stunned for a moment: "Master, are the monsters in my mission very powerful?"
"This is not a question of whether it is powerful or not..."
Master Kong'an shook his head, then stood up and walked towards the screen at the back.
"Come with me first."
When Master Kong'an said this, I didn't dare to ask any more questions, so I took Lonnie, Bai Ze, and An Jingjing to follow her.
After bypassing the screen and passing through a corridor, Master Kongyasu stopped at the end and opened a door next to it.
After walking in, I found that this was a small room, empty inside, except for something hanging on the left wall, which took up the entire wall.
It seems to be a painting, but for some reason, the painting is wrapped in layers of yellow paper, with a red talisman stuck in the middle, which looks very weird.
Master Kong'an asked me to take off the thing, take off the red talisman, and peel off the layer of yellow paper. Sure enough, an ancient painting appeared in front of us.
There are many pavilions, pavilions, and figures in the painting. It looks like a normal image of ancient urban life. There is nothing special about it. It is just that maybe because of the age, the painting has become a little yellowed, giving it a simple texture.
"Cheng Yi, your mission lies in this ancient painting."
Master Kong'an pointed at the painting and said to me in a deep voice.
"ah?"
I asked in confusion: "Is there something evil in this painting?"
Master Kongan nodded: "The nightmare you want to break is inside."
"There is a space inside this painting, and a nightmare is imprisoned in it. All you have to do is enter the soul with your soul, find the nightmare, and destroy it."
I couldn't help but ask: "Master, this Yama is already imprisoned inside anyway. Why don't you just let it stay in the painting? Why do you have to go in and kill it?"
Master Kong'an sighed: "This nightmare was originally transformed by a ray of obsession. Because the obsession is too deep, it cannot be eliminated and can only be sealed in the painting."
"I didn't expect that during these years of being sealed, Nightmare has continued to become more powerful. It won't be long before it breaks through the seal and will cause a catastrophe to the world."
"So I want you to enter the painting before the nightmare forms a climate, find it and destroy it."
It sounds like this task is indeed very difficult, and within seven days, I have to return to Neiwutang to report to Mr. Hu San, and time has become tight.
It's just that now that I've been brought here, under Master Kong'an's earnest gaze, I can't refuse and can only nod in agreement.
