Chapter 43 Master Six
The man walked slowly into the house and studied us both. "Who drew the sword? What is your purpose of summoning me?" he asked. The then-Chen Yixuan stood forth and greeted him. "And you are..." The immortal cut him off, saying curtly, "You can call me Master Six, for I am the sixth in my family." Immediately Chen Yixuan muttered reverently, "So it is thus, Master Six..." and he began telling the immortal of his story.
At the end of his story, Master Six pondered quietly. "The promise I had made so many a year ago to the founder of your order was that I will help to the best of my abilities if your order is in grave peril," said the immortal at last. "Which is it you want, for me to help you with the case or to cure him of his sickness?" Chen Yixuan began bickering with his junior; he wanted the immortal's help to cure his junior, but his junior insisted that the immortal should be helping him with his case. Master Six watched them quietly, until he spoke up. "How ab

The atmosphere turned strange and awkward and Chen Yixuan failed to summon any courage to further ask any more questions. Master Six was busy filling their cups, bellowing loudly for toasts after toasts with a reckless abandon to get drunk and wasted. After drinking for some time, Master Six's hand slipped into his pocket and took out the small bundle wrapped with his handkerchief. Only now Chen Yixuan finally saw what it was: a bullet round, one which had been a dud. There were scorch marks at its end, the sign of being struck by a firing pin when the bullet was fired from a gun. Master Six handled the opened bundled to the old man. "Grandfather, look! Is this one of ours?" The old man took the bullet and peered at it closely. At last, he handed it back, saying, "Indeed. It is one of ours; my cousin's in fact!" "Your cousin?" Master Six blurted loudly, as he quickly remarked, "Is he not at the cotton factory?" "He is," said the old man, nodding. "He has been there f
Once Upon a Time Chapter 45 Divinity
As he stepped out of the textile factory, Master Six told Chen Yixuan, "Hurry, we need to reach Wu Zhong County before nightfall!" Chen Yixuan took his instructions seriously and steered his warhorse in the direction the county. They did not speak, finally arriving at the Southern Pass of Wu Zhong County just as it was nearly dusk. Master Six dismounted before a sundry shop and told the assistant to get the shopkeeper. The assistant did not dare dally, upon noticing that they were police officers. After a short while, the shopkeeper emerged, and he hurriedly greeted the lawmen. "What orders do you have for me, officers?" he asked. Master Six wasted no time on pleasantries. "Tell your boss that we want to go up the mountain! We'll be back here tomorrow at eight a.m., and you should make the necessary arrangements!" he ordered before turning to leave after speaking, unconcerned if the shopkeeper had any questions. That night, as they were in the reception area, Chen Yi
Once Upon a Time Chapter 46 The Whole Bandits' Lair Is Wiped Out
Master Six surely deserved his reputation as an immortal. Chen Yixuan thought that Master Six had left him behind, but he had not yet fully formed the thought before he found out that the bandits were stilled and couldn't move. In the distance, the voice of Master Six came through, "The acupuncture points of these people will unravel in half an hour, take a horse and meet me at Mount Bie!" Then he had to go down the mountain alone. When he went past all the bandits standing guard on the way, he found them all stilled. Some of them were leaning on trees, and others were lying on the ground. It was really quite amusing! Chen Yixuan got on a horse and started to catch up from behind... When he reached Mount Bie, he was tired and hungry. He saw a restaurant by the roadside and then drew rein at the door. The waiter came out to bow and asked, "Hello, Mister. Are you Officer Chen?" Chen Yixuan asked, "How do you know?" The waiter said promptly, "Your colleague is waiting for
Once Upon a Time Chapter 47 There is No Reason Why it Should Not Be
When his colleague reached this point in the conversation, there was not a sign of disappointment on his face. Instead, he said to Chen Yixuan very excitedly, "At that moment, I was flabbergasted. All the insiders were executed by shooting, leaving us no leads to look for the goods!" Master Six looked at me and said, "Let's head back!" We both returned to the Jixian Police Station Guest House. After eating and returning to the room, I still couldn't help to ask, "Master Six, all the insiders are dead. There are no others for us to interrogate the whereabouts of the goods. What's our next move to find clues?" Master Six said dryly, "Who says we can't find out the whereabouts of the goods if the bandits are all dead?" I said, "Is there another way?" Master Six raised his hand and pointed his palm to me. In his palm, some pictures appeared like a puppet show (There was no television in this time of China). I saw those bandits all on their knees with the Ox-head and the Ho
Once Upon a Time Chapter 48 Master Six's Action
I looked at these three broken pieces of incense and whispered to myself, "Whatever." Then each of us took a piece and took out our lighters, trying to ignite them. However, no matter how we tried, we couldn't ignite the incense. When it touched the flame from the lighter, it gave out smoke. But once it left the flame, it went out. I looked at the others and found that the same happened to them. How strange that was! At this moment, we heard someone talking at the door. Then we saw a middle-aged man who was around 50 coming in. He was wearing clothes of famous brands and leather sandals, holding an iPhone in luxury gold color in his hand. Talking through his phone, he passed between us directly as if he didn't see us and sat on the couch. We all got stupefied. Chong Xi asked him suspiciously, "Are you in the wrong house?" The middle-aged man hung up, put back his phone on his waist, raised his head and asked, "What do you want from me?" Chong Xi replied w
Once Upon a Time Chapter 49 The Cultivation of Seven Lives
The man who was carrying the fish basket was none other than Master Six at a younger age. Master Six said to the couple, "I can save you, but on one condition. When she grows up, she needs to marry me!" At a life-and-death point, who could say no? After the couple agreed, Master Six put his necklace in the baby's hand and said, "This is the love token!" Then he turned his head and said to the boatmen, "Will you jump off by yourselves, or should I make you?" Right after his voice faded away, the two men jumped into the water with a flop. Master Six poled the boat to the shore. ... It turned out that those two gangsters were actually the shrimp soldier and the crab general sent by Dongting Dragon Monarch. Back to the present, the couple saw a necklace with the same appearance in Master Six's hand. They went to a specialist to identify the other necklace before. It turned out it was worth more than 12 million. Now they felt very embarrassed because they fail
Once Upon a Time Chapter 50 The Resolution
"Because there was still part of your Karma not yet resolved!" Master Six bellowed, shaking his head since she was unwilling to give in. Apparently, the dark man was working as a convoy bodyguard of a convoy escort agency. Every time before embarking on a trip, especially convoys with people, he would first visit a temple and offer some prayers, hoping for some blessing. But on this trip, the Lord Buddha had intentionally tried to delay him by means of some entanglements with the local magistrate because an area he would be passing was part of a battlefield. If not for any external interference, he would have first been arrested for investigation but would be released later. The truth would be revealed not long afterwards: the fabric store owner would have been sentenced to payment of hefty sum as punishment, and he would also have to re-compensate the girl while the girl would be safely sent home. The sales agent, the true instigator of the whole matter, would be seve
Once Upon a Time Chapter 51 Ludicrous Absurdity
Here I was, thinking that Father would utter with his own lips the name of a prestigious and illustrious sect or order. Instead, Father had merely revealed that the man in the picture was his teacher with the monotonous mood as if he was speaking to a sleepy class of students, which made me wonder if his tone could not be more condescending. During dinner, from nowhere, Father took out a sword and handed it to me. "Take this sword, since the previous one was broken," he said. I took the sword from him and studied it. What the, I gasped quietly. This looked exactly the same as the previous one! Did Father buy these swords in bulk? The sword looked oddly similar to the ones used by old men and women in their morning taiji exercise no matter how I looked! As we chomped on the food, I asked Father, "How did you know that incident involved Master Six?" Father gave a sly chuckle. "I knew about it since the beginning. But what I did not know, was that even Celes
