Chapter 75 The View in the Clouds
"Bang~bang~bang~bang~" The gate of the yard was continuously kicked by people outside. The old Taoist priest made tricks and cast spells to remove the blocking talisman formation. The man who was kicking the door outside kicked the empty kick and fell into a dog's mud. The snow was cold. Realizing that he had made a fool of himself, the detective quickly stood up and patted the snowflakes on his body. In the yard, he found that only the old Taoist priest sat cross-legged on the ground, "Oh, what about the appearance, Old Wang liar, where is the monster?"
"Boss, come in, nothing is wrong~"
The night was dark and the lights were dim, and only the snow was illuminating on the ground. People outside the yard saw that nothing happened in the yard. When the ward called the ward, they walked in one by one. There were only three old people in the group of wards, and the rest were young and strong. Standing among them was a middle-aged man with a knife crossing. He looked quite arrogant. As soon as he entered the yard, his eyes were swept around. The man's eyes were bright and he soon discovered something abnormal.
He walked step by step to the old Taoist priest, and had already seen that the old Taoist robe was tattered, and the blood on the snow had not yet dissipated. He must have been after a battle just now, and he couldn't help but look up at the old Taoist priest and asked, "Master Wang... a demon?"
"Hmph! I have been killed by me~" The old Taoist priest was arrogant and had done something big just now, which was not something that ordinary people could understand. Ignore these constables for the time being, and maybe they were pretending to behave.
These constables were not just for a good meal. They investigated clues from the hospital separately, but in fact there was no need to see much. The bones and a lot of blood stains of the male owner of the hospital were still in place when they died. Soon they saw blood and broken bones all over the ground.
"Boss, come here~" A constable hurriedly called the middle-aged man standing in front of the old Taoist priest. He walked over quickly and saw the scene of the crime clearly.
At this time, the old Taoist priest stood up slowly, his body still a little weak. When the constable leader saw the bloody scene, he believed the old Taoist priest and removed the monster. He turned around and saw that the old Taoist priest was frivolous and quickly stepped forward to support the old Taoist priest, "The King of Taoists has made great contributions to eliminating monsters. The arrester will report to the top truthfully. Can he tell the story in detail?"
The old Taoist priest looked at the middle-aged man and waved his hand, "How could I deal with the monster with this old bone? Look at me, I'm in rags and meager spiritual power at this moment, and this cold night is very cool~"
I don’t know what grudges the old Taoist priest had with these constables in the past. Now it is obvious that the old Taoist priest is teasing and teasing the constable leader, but the constable leader doesn’t care. Eliminating monsters is a great achievement. This is not a time to bicker. He smiled awkwardly and ordered his subordinates to take off his robe and put it on the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist priest was not willing to make any progress. He explained the causes and consequences of the matter one by one, and told the constable leader that if he didn't believe it, he could ask the mistress and servants of the yard.
The matter was explained clearly. The old Taoist priest left. Although he was frivolous and unsteady, the constable and leader wanted to leave the old Taoist priest to serve as a banquet, ask for details of each of them, and then make a visit. In the past, the neighbors in the four wilderness and people in the whole town underestimated the old Taoist priest and regarded him as a liar with no real ability. Now he found that he could indeed catch the monster, but he was not allowed to get close to him. However, if anyone would open the store on this night, he had to give up and ordered his subordinates to clean up the mess, preserve important evidence, and wait for the county magistrate to prosecute.
Bai Gu followed the old Taoist priest out of the town, looking at the direction of the mountain, and walked to the mountain road to make sure that no one was around. Bai Gu showed up. The old Taoist priest was not frightened this time. Perhaps because he did a big thing today, he had a big face in front of everyone, and was in a good mood. He reported his name and said that his name was Wang Anfeng.
Bai Gu also reported his name and chatted along the way. He soon arrived at Wang Anfeng's Taoist temple. The "Yunzhong Temple" was in the snow forest outside the Taihang Mountains. It was called a Taoist temple, but in fact it was a broken yard surrounded by seven tiled buildings.
Wang Anfeng was not married in his life and was born in the army. He had four adopted sons, all of whom he adopted. He took his adopted sons to participate in the battle between Qingyun Kingdom and the Desert Snake Demon Group thirty years ago. No one of the adopted sons survived. Wang Anfeng was heartbroken and retired to the mountains to seek immortality. After a few years, he really found a way to practice. In this Yunzhong Temple, a white-haired Confucian scholar taught the art of spiritual guidance, and since then he became a Taoist priest.
Eighteen years ago, Wang Anfeng was rushing back on the snowy night and saw a pair of twins still on the side of the road. The two little guys were crying and moaning in their cradles. If Wang Anfeng hadn't been passing by, he would have been taken away by wild beasts soon. Wang Anfeng was kind and kind, and he looked at the two babies becoming more and more cute as he looked at them. This was like God pitying Wang Anfeng for having no children, so he gave them to him. Wang Anfeng adopted these two children without hesitation. Now Yun Zhongguan is the home of their master and disciple.
After entering the Taoist temple, he was afraid of waking up his two disciples, Wang Anfeng walked slowly and quietly to his room. The room was cold and frugal. Wang Anfeng lit a candle and had no other food in the middle of the night. He could only heat a pot of hot tea to warm Bai Gu's intestines. In fact, Bai Gu's cultivation was around, and this ordinary cold air was not enough to frostbite the body.
"Who is that old white-haired Confucian scholar? Are you there now?" Bai Gu still wanted to know who taught Wang Anfeng's spiritual engraving technique. Since he introduced the road to build, he did not continue to give advice. Thirty years have not even passed the late stage of spiritual engraving, and all his time has been wasted.
Wang Anfeng poured tea for Bai Gu, rubbed his teacup with his thin palms, and sighed, "Oh, my teacher has passed away. I was still in my prime at that time. I thought it was still long, but I didn't expect to lead me into the road construction. I passed away in a few days. Since then, I have entered the country slowly, and no one has been instructed, and I have been exploring all the way to this day~"
Bai Gu drank a sip of hot tea, nodded, sighing in his heart that this old Taoist Wang was not easy. If he had been able to break through one or two small realms for thirty years, I wonder if he could calm down and think for a long time, and weighed the pros and cons, Bai Gu made up his mind to express his purpose.
"Master Wang, I'm not intimidated. I came here to apprenticeship, just for the old monk who taught you the magical guise. Unfortunately, he is no longer there, but I have no place to go... Can I take me in this Yun Zhongguan?" Bai Gu said sincerely with a clear look.
Wang Anfeng didn't expect Bai Gu to say this. At first, he thought Bai Gu was here to be a guest. Wang Anfeng, a cultivator as young as Bai Gu, could guess that he was definitely a disciple of the Great Immortal Sect. Inviting Bai Gu to enter the temple also had a purpose. In fact, he wanted to ask Bai Gu for some questions about his practice.
"This..." Wang Anfeng hesitated. After all, he has lived for more than 70 years. He is a person who is old and has a changeable world. Wang Anfeng is also weighing the pros and cons. It is difficult for anyone to let go of his guard when he meets for the first time.
Bai Gu also knew what Wang Anfeng was worried about, so he sincerely prayed: "I was not from here, but an accident brought me and my senior brother here. We were trapped in a powerful secret place of formation. It was the senior brother who sacrificed his life to rescue me. Now I am homeless, but I am looking for a safe place to practice hard, so as to break through the realm as soon as possible and find a way to go home as soon as possible."
What this said is actually true. Bai Gu just didn't explain it all. Wang Anfeng was still hesitating. Bai Gu guessed that it seemed that it was difficult to stay here.
The reason why he said he wanted to keep it here is that Bai Gu needs to give himself a foot and do things in Jionzhou in the future. Second, he observed Wang Anfeng along the way. Although he was old, he was compassionate. He used to eliminate monsters and forced his life to thunder. He adopted six children in his life. After the first four died, he gave up military power, fame and fortune. The latter two children walked quietly when they entered the sightseeing just now, for fear of waking them up. They could see that Wang Anfeng cared for more.
The most rare thing about human beings is that they still have a pure heart when they are old and die. Baigu Gambling King Anfeng is trustworthy.
However, although Bai Gu was willing to believe this old Taoist priest, Wang Anfeng didn't think so. No matter how he had been a soldier, slaughtered people, and killed monsters, and he had seen more people in the world, so he had to be more careful.
Seeing that Wang Anfeng did not give a reply for a long time, Bai Gu did not plan to say anything else. The days were still long and he could not hang himself on a tree. He then observed the other three temples and Taoist temples. In fact, Bai Gu still had tricks and knew that what Wang Anfeng wanted was actually guidance on practice, but Bai Gu disdained to use this trick. If he exchanged it for profit first, then others would tempt Wang Anfeng with greater benefits in the future. Bai Gu himself was unlucky.
"Since there is something inconvenient, I naturally cannot force others to do anything. I thank the old Taoist priest for his hot tea. I will leave here and I will bother you next time~" Bai Gu stood up and wanted to leave.
Wang Anfeng quickly stood up and grabbed Bai Gu, "Don't worry, this snowy night is cold and the wind is howling, where can you go? Why can't you be so calm at such a young age? I'm thinking of a legitimate way~"
Bai Gu was delighted. It seemed that the old man was willing to help him again and again.
