Chapter 4 Sloppy Taoist
Chapter 4 Sloppy Taoist
At the door of the shop where everyone was watching, there was a sloppy Taoist in a black robe who was being held by the shopkeeper.
"Our shop is operated on a small basis, and we do not take credit. The Taoist priest should pay before leaving."
The Taoist had gray beard and wrinkled face, looked at the shopkeeper and said with a smile: "Why do you need to be like this, it's just a meal, why be so stingy.
Pindao didn't have any money with him today, how about using this amulet in exchange for your meal? "
With that said, this old-fashioned old hand took out a crumpled talisman paper from his waist. It was twisted and twisted like a ghostly talisman, and some incomprehensible things were drawn on it.
"That won't work."
The shopkeeper listened to the Taoist's words, looked down at the talisman paper cut from the crumpled yellow paper, and immediately shook his head: "The Taoist priest should keep this talisman paper, the small shop can't afford these things.
It's not that I'm stingy, if the Taoist priest just eats some vegetarian dishes and noodles, that's all, I won't bother with you, but you ate a few big fish from me and drank two jars of old wine. Like you, my shop can't go on. "
"That's all."
The old Taoist turned his eyes away from the crowd, and found that several young monks were also attracted, and they were watching with great interest. Obviously, they were all juniors, and it was strange to see everything.
He sighed and said, "Pin Dao really doesn't have any silver taels with you now, so let's take a pot of water, and I'll change the few fish I've eaten for you."
"Nonsense, the fish has already been eaten by you, how can they come out?"
The shopkeeper's face was full of disbelief: "I tell you, we also have monks in Kuncheng, and we have seen spells, don't fool me with blindfolding, or I will report to the officials, and then be careful to be caught and destroy you. evil law."
"Hehe, ignorant people, how can they know the magic of poor magic."
The old man smiled lightly, and didn't care about the shopkeeper, just urged him to quickly bring a basin of water.
The shopkeeper was suspicious and winked at the shop assistant.
Soon, the shop assistant brought out a large wooden basin, which contained more than half of the water.
The Taoist broke free from the shopkeeper's pull, stretched out his hand and pulled out a sword from his waist, and immediately startled the shopkeeper and the shop assistant.
"You, you...what are you going to do?"
The fat shopkeeper shivered a little, thinking that this man was trying to kill?
He looked at the sword in the hands of the Taoist. It was about two feet long. Cold winter and twelfth lunar month.
"Don't be afraid, let's watch the poor way cast spells!"
The Taoist spoke in his mouth, and when he drew the sword light in his hand, he saw the fishbone and fishbone that had been eaten on one of the tables in the shop lined up and flew over and dived into the basin of water.
Then I saw the Taoist put the green sword in his hand into the water and stirred it in one direction.
Just when everyone was looking at it for no apparent reason, they suddenly heard a pop, and there was water in the tub.
Everyone hurriedly stretched their necks to look, and saw that the bones in the wooden basin had turned into live fish, and they were all jumping around, very happy.
"This……"
The shopkeeper raised his sleeves to wipe the water droplets that had been splashed on his face, and in surprise, he stretched out his finger and touched the fish in the wooden basin. Blindfolded.
In the crowd, Qin Feng smiled slightly.
Thinking about what method of transportation this old man had used, he moved a few fish from other places.
As for the fact that he could revive a fish that had been cooked and gnawed until only its bones and bones were left, even if such means really existed, it was impossible to appear in a small place like Kuncheng.
Even if it is the method of the flesh and bones of the living dead, it is necessary to let the bones still have some vitality. These fish bones that have been stewed and simmered with salty fragrance, if they can still produce blood and flesh, it is a ghost. .
"The Taoist master's spells are exquisite, I will admire it."
On the other side, several young people came out and said to the man.
"Ha ha……"
The black-robed Taoist smiled lightly, put the sword into the sheath, and returned a salute: "Let a few laugh, Pindao is really shy, and he has to show off some means.
Pindao Ling Yunzi, I don't know what to call the little friends? "
"I am a child of the Zhao family in Tieling County, my name is Zhao Jinglei, these are several brothers of my own family..."
Following the introduction of the leading boy, Qin Feng's eyes lit up in the crowd. He did not expect this boy to be the son of the Zhao family in Tieling.
The Zhao family is the No. 1 family in Tieling County. The family is very powerful. It is said that there is an old patriarch who is at the peak of Jindan. It is not a small family like the Qin family in Kuncheng that can be compared.
These young people were bored in the county town, so they wanted to go out and practice. It happened that there was a tragedy in Kuncheng, and many monks came here to investigate.
These juniors are new and have some skills, so they made an appointment to come to Kuncheng to play together. By the way, they solved the case in Kuncheng and let the elders in the family know that they are not completely playboys, but they still have some points. matter.
"It turned out to be the son of the Zhao family. No wonder Pindao sees a few of them with extraordinary temperament, but they are indeed children of the big family."
Ling Yunzi's words of compliment immediately made these young people who had not yet entered the world float into the sky.
"I have long heard that the old patriarch of the Zhao family has a high level of cultivation, and it is said that he is about to break through the cultivation level of the Purple Palace, which is really enviable."
"Brother Ling Yunzi, your news is out of date."
Zhao Jinglei pretended to be reserved, and said: "My ancestors started to retreat a few months ago, if nothing else, after a few years, when the ancestors leave the retreat, we will have Zifu monks in our family.
Hmph, when the time comes, I want to see how that kid from the Fan family fights with me! "
"Ah? The old patriarch of the Zhao family has already begun to retreat and prepare to break through?"
Ling Yunzi hurriedly cupped his hands: "It seems that I want to congratulate Zhao Gongzi. In the future, the major families in Tieling County will definitely be dominated by the Zhao family. After the poor road goes to Tieling County, I will rely more on Zhao Gongzi to take care of it. "
"Good talk, good talk."
Zhao Jinglei smiled with satisfaction: "Brother Ling Yunzi should also come to Kuncheng to investigate the case, I wonder if you have found any clues?
I've been waiting for my brother to come here for two days, but it turned out to be nothing, so I just went back like this, I'm really unwilling. "
"That's it!"
Ling Yunzi glanced left and right, Qin Feng saw that he was insane, so he hid behind one of the men before he looked over.
He is not old, and his figure has not fully grown. He shrank back a little, and the whole person hid behind the big man, showing no trace.
Lao Dao saw that there were no other cultivators in the crowd except these young people, so he felt relieved, and mysteriously approached the young people, lowered his voice and said: "If you want to tell the clues, Lao Dao, I am here. There is one."
"Oh?"
When several young people heard the words, they were overjoyed: "The Daoist speaks quickly, if you really catch the evil cultivator, my brothers and I will not be greedy for the reward, all the rewards are yours, you only need to capture the evil cultivator. Just count my name on my head."
"In that case, the old man would be grateful."
When Ling Yunzi heard the words, the smile on his face became even stronger: "When the old Taoist came here, he found that there was something strange in the west of the city, but he was worried that his strength was not enough, and it would be bad if he was killed by that evil cultivator. That's why I didn't act rashly, I wanted to find a few like-minded fellow Daoists to take action together.
If Young Master Zhao is willing to help, of course the mere evil cultivator will be able to capture him. When Young Master captures that evil cultivator in one fell swoop, he will surely become famous inside and outside the county town. "
As soon as these words came out, that young master Zhao immediately burst into laughter.
"Good talk, good talk."
Zhao Jinglei's face was full of smiles, as if he had already captured the evil cultivator, and he was already thinking about how to brag about his skills to those girls after returning to the county town and going to Baihua Pavilion.
"As long as the evil cultivator is caught, I will invite fellow Daoist Ling Yunzi to go to the county town for a good stroll. All the expenses will be counted on this son's head."
"Oh, Mr. Zhao is really good-natured."
Ling Yunzi had a flattering smile on his face, and while saying compliments, he stretched out his hand to signal Zhao Gongzi and others to leave with him.
Qin Feng looked at the backs of these people and thought about it.
He felt that the old man who claimed to be Ling Yunzi should be a liar, trying to defraud some good things from these noble families.
It is these noble family members who are not deeply involved in the world that can be easily fooled by others. Although Qin Feng has no experience in the cultivation world, he still has the memory of his previous life, and he cannot be regarded as a teenager completely. .
Although he himself has not experienced any tricks such as fairy jumping, he has also seen some subtle tricks.
There is no such thing as a pie from the sky in this world. It really happened, and you have to be careful if there are still traps in this pie.
If you accidentally sink into it, it is very likely that you will bleed once.
However, Ling Yunzi's old-fashioned courage is not small, and he dares to pit the juniors of the Zhao family in Tieling, so he is not afraid of being held accountable by the Zhao family afterwards?
Or that this old man is a master who travels around. After cheating Zhao Jinglei and others once, he turned around and left.
If this is the case, then the Zhao family may not be able to catch him.
Although the strength of the Zhao family is not weak, it is mainly developed in Tieling County, and their family is not a big force outside of Tieling County.
Qin Feng ignored this matter.
Regardless of Ling Yunzi or the young people of the Zhao family, their cultivation is above him. These things are not something he can manage as a rookie who has just started practicing.
If you really want to ruin the good thing of Ling Yunzi, maybe this old man will give him a sword.
With his small body, he really couldn't hold up the other party's cold sword.
Qin Feng dispersed with the scattered crowd, wandered around the city for a long time, and met a lot of monks, but there was no other excitement to watch.
After all, most monks value their own identity, but they don't want to let ordinary people see a joke.
In the evening, Qin Long returned home with a gloomy face, which made Qin Feng stunned.
Since there have been no more cases in the past few days, Qin Long has returned to normal. Why is his face pulled down again today.
"Father, doesn't it mean that the evil cultivator has not dared to commit crimes, not to mention the senior sent by the county to help, even if the evil cultivator is not caught in the end and he escapes, the responsibility is not on you, you What are you still worried about?"
"You do not know."
Qin Long frowned and said, "Although no pregnant women have been tortured in the past few days, some monks have been brutally murdered."
"Cultivator?"
"good."
Qin Long said in a deep voice: "Actually, some monks have been killed since the day before yesterday, but the places where those monks were killed were relatively hidden, and they were deliberately buried by that evil cultivator.
If it weren't for the fact that more monks have come to Kuncheng recently, and they have been investigating around, they happened to find a few places where monks were killed. I would not know about it.
Because this matter was only circulated in the circle of a few monks, the common people didn't know about it, so it didn't cause any trouble. "
Having said that, Qin Long glanced at his son and said again: "Before the evil cultivator is caught, you'd better not go out during this time, although you say that you don't have any valuable spiritual stones on your body, but also said that It is not allowed that the evil cultivator just wants to kill people and practice evil arts."
"so serious?"
Qin Feng was startled suddenly, it seems that he is safest to stay at home honestly in the future.
"Humph!"
Qin Long was obviously a little angry: "That evil cultivator is actually hidden among the cultivators who came to Kuncheng recently, but this guy is proficient in disguise and can change his appearance, so I didn't find it.
In fact, after careful investigation of those monks who were killed, we found that they had been in contact with people before they were killed. According to some people, they have seen them being deceived by a monk with eloquent words to go to certain places. Those monks may also be the same. So he lost his life.
It's really not greedy enough, for the sake of the reward in the yamen, it's so easy to believe what other people say, it's an idiot. "
"Uh……"
Hearing this, Qin Feng was slightly taken aback, and he couldn't help thinking of the scene he saw in the city during the day.
"father."
He swallowed and said, "Maybe, I discovered that evil cultivator!"
