Chapter 2 Accepting Punishment

A blue-robed Taoist priest saw Li Bufan being stunned and asked, "Li Bufan, what are you stupid? What are we asking about you?"

"Ah--Two senior brothers, I was knocked unconscious last night. Now I just woke up. I seem to have lost my memory. I can't remember all the things I used to... "Li Bufan replied hesitantly.

When the two blue-robed Taoist priests heard this, they were so surprised that their mouths were rounded. After a while, a blue-robed Taoist priest asked in disbelief, "Junior brother, are you sure you were really knocked unconscious last night? So you met a book thief?"

In fact, Li Bufan knew nothing about book thieves, but he had to perfunctorily say about the two little Taoists in front of him, "Two senior brothers, I was indeed knocked out by book thieves last night. Don't ask me now, I can't remember anything!"

At this moment, a little Taoist priest wearing the same gray Taoist robe as himself ran over and said with a bitter face, "I was vigilant last night, and I don't know who knocked out."

Li Bufan wanted to laugh when he heard this, but he deliberately held back his smile and said, "It seems that we are really sympathetic! If I knew who did it, I would definitely have to repair him well!"

"Junior Brother Li, you are talking big! Those thieves who dare to come to our Yuxu Sect to steal books are not ordinary people. With your and my cultivation, it may be difficult for them to touch each other!" A blue-robed Taoist priest analyzed seriously.

Li Bufan nodded slightly when he heard this and expressed his agreement.

The Taoist priest from the blue robe who had just spoken continued to add, "Do you know what secrets are the stolen?"

Li Bufan and the other two Taoist priests shook their heads slightly, and the blue-robed Taoist priest pauses and said, "It is said that it is the number one sword score in the world that is the Deadly Soul Chasing Sword. It was originally a demonic evil skill, but two hundred years ago, after the great demon Hunyuanzi was surrounded and annihilated by the righteous group of heroes, the sword score of this evil sword is hidden in the Yunji Pavilion of our Yuxu Sect."

Yuxu Sect! Li Bufan was shocked when he heard the words Yuxu Sect and thought to himself, "So this sect is called Yuxu Sect!"

The little Taoist priest in gray robe said with a frown, "Oh, if such an important secret book is stolen, wouldn't we be severely punished?"

Li Bufan was also worried when he heard this.

Sure enough, three Taoist priests came in a short while, leading by a middle-aged and long-bearded Taoist priest. He looked elegant, but his expression was solemn, which made people feel depressed.

The middle-aged and old Taoist priest interrogated Li Bufan and another gray Taoist robe night watchman, and then took Li Bufan and the night watchman to a house. The plaque on the lintel of the house had three big words "Law Enforcement Hall".

Li Bufan complained secretly in his heart, thinking that it is inevitable that he will be suffering from flesh and blood.

However, the fact was not what Li Bufan thought. The law enforcement elder said to Li Bufan and another gray-robed Taoist priest, "You two have neglected your duty at night and will be dealt with more seriously according to the rules of the sect. However, because the book-stealing thieves are indeed masters among the masters. You were stunned, and they are much better than those awake and unaware night watchmen, so you are punished to stand upside down this time.

Li Bufan thought to himself, "Although the handstand is easier than the flesh and blood, if it takes a long time, it will definitely not be able to bear it."

So Li Bufan hurriedly asked, "How long will it take to stand upside down?"

The law enforcement elder replied with a smile, "It's just a stick of incense!"

Li Bufan said in his heart, "A stick of incense is actually easy!"

Li Bufan stood by a wall and stood upside down.

The law enforcement elder hurriedly scolded, "What did you do? I forgot the rules of the sect? The rules of the sect stipulate that one hand must be inverted!"

"What? One-handed?" Li Bufan said in disbelief.

The law enforcement elder nodded slightly and said, "Yes, one-handed, is there any problem?"

Li Bufan shook his head slightly and whispered, "No problem!"

The law enforcement elder lit an incense stick, then moved a bench and sat not far away to supervise.

Li Bufan suddenly realized that since he came to this world, he has become more powerful, and one-arm stands upside down is completely effortless. Is this the difference between a person who practices the truth and a mortal?

Li Bufan saw that the little Taoist priest from gray robe who came with him was standing upside him.

Li Bufan used the time of the inverted hands to chat with the Taoist priest who was punished with him, and learned that he was just an outer disciple in the Yuxu Sect. He just practiced basic skills every day, worked as a traitor, and never had the chance to get along with the upper level of martial arts.

It turned out that the disciple who was punished with him was also an outer disciple.

Li Bufan also learned about his situation from Luo Xiaohu.

I felt much more at ease, and I was a little secretly grateful that although I was born as an orphan in this world, I lived a peaceful life in the Yuxu Sect. Although I was an outer disciple and could not learn the upper level of martial arts, the problem of food and clothing could be solved and I had always lived a life of food and clothing without worries.

After living in Yuxu Sect for a while, Li Bufan gradually became familiar with this place. Li Bufan found that although he was an outer disciple, he had solid basic skills and could use a variety of talismans, which was much better than his fellow disciples.

Li Bufan’s main responsibility in Yuxu Sect is to watch the night. In this world where there are many demons and monsters, ordinary people cannot do the job of watching the night. Li Bufan knows talismans and some low-level Taoist techniques, so it is not a big deal to watch the night.
