Walking out of the alley, it seemed like a different world. Because it was early morning, the mist was a bit hazy, and the "squeak" sound made when the house was opened was like the call of the world of mortals, floating in the scattered fog.
The old Taoist priest's thin body walked in front, while Wang Yuan followed closely, wanting to see what the old Taoist wanted to do. If it was too much, he didn't mind the interruption of his understanding of the world of mortals.
"Hey, hurry up!" the old Taoist priest turned around and yelled.
Seeing the old Taoist priest's anxious look, Wang Yuan immediately sighed secretly and followed quickly.
Walking on the street, it was a strange feeling. Wang Yuan looked at all kinds of people on the street with strange eyes, connected with his spiritual consciousness, and slowly felt the human heart of these people.
For more than four hundred years, I have lived in a world of survival and death, staring at everyone cautiously all the time, and looking at these people with the eyes of mortals now are two different worlds. The one where intrigues, the jungle and the strong prey on each other.
In a world where the strong are respected, he has developed a sophisticated mind. This outing is also his first step into the world of mortals.
But in his current life, there is less stimulation and excitement, and more smells that make him particularly unfamiliar. If he changes his own breath into a stranger, then it means that Wang Yuan has completed this cleansing.
Ordinary life, ordinary heart and ordinary people, everything starts from scratch to fill the vacancy of that black memory. This is a long time. You cannot force instant enlightenment, it needs to be washed away gradually.
The old Taoist priest led Wang Yuan out of the main street and entered a remote street. However, this street was very ordinary, with scattered pedestrians walking in a hurry. There was nothing that attracted the old Taoist.
At this time, the old Taoist suddenly became cautious, stooped up, turned around and waved to Wang Yuan, saying in a low voice: "Come here, let's change your appearance first."
"Disguise?" Wang Yuan looked at the old man inexplicably. He himself used magic to transform his face, so what else can he do to disguise himself?
But he couldn't get rid of the old Taoist priest's temper, so he and the old Taoist priest hid in the gap between the two houses. It was a little crowded, but the old Taoist priest couldn't stop laughing.
"Hey, do you know what is the most important thing when traveling in the world?" The old Taoist priest kept taking out some small bags from his arms and asked.
Wang Yuan was completely confused about the world of martial arts. He was not pursuing martial arts, but a path of cultivation that was even worse than martial arts! But Wang Yuan was quick-thinking, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "It should be safe."
The old Taoist priest raised his head, looked at Wang Yuan strangely, and said with an appreciative smile: "Not bad, I know this. Now that you know this, don't stand there anymore, help me open these quickly, don't waste time and delay
It’s time for me to question you!”
With his eyes flashing, Wang Yuan lowered his body and reached out to open the small bags that the old Taoist priest took out. When he opened the first bag, Wang Yuan glanced at it and saw that it was filled with sand of various colors.
Opening the second one, there are some soft-looking "meat balls".
The third one is some hair.
…
Most of these pockets contained strange-looking things. Wang Yuan frowned and looked at the old Taoist priest. At this time, the old Taoist priest had finished his work, smiled obscenely, then grabbed a handful of sand in the first pocket and sprinkled it.
on Wang Yuan's face.
"What are you doing!" Wang Yuan shouted angrily and waved his sleeve, but his cultivation was gone, so this wave was of no avail.
"Haha, don't hide, I'm pretending for you!" The old Taoist priest smiled even more.
Who is Wang Yuan? If he had his previous temperament, he would kill the old Taoist priest on the spot. But if he started killing during this period, all the previous efforts would be in vain.
"Disguise!? How can you disguise yourself with these things!" Wang Yuan said coldly with extreme patience.
"You don't know this. If you don't believe it, just look at how I changed my appearance." As he said that, the old Taoist priest grabbed a handful of sand and sprinkled it on his face. In an instant, his face changed!
Wang Yuan did not feel any strange changes on his face, but when he saw the scene of the old Taoist priest, he subconsciously touched his face. The original skin became extremely rough, and there were wrinkles all over.
Looking at the old Taoist priest again, I saw that his face was getting thinner and thinner, and it stopped only when there was only a layer of skin left. He looked very scary.
The old Taoist priest opened his mouth and smiled, like a corroded corpse after death!
"Hey, there are some missing materials here, and the effect is like this, so I think of other ways to make up for it with this!" The old Taoist priest picked up the second bag, took out the "meat balls" inside, and stuck it on
In the pits on the face.
After pasting several items in succession, the old Taoist priest wiped the rest of the strange objects in his pockets on his face. After doing this, he suddenly raised his head, and Wang Yuan's eyes shrank. In shock, he murmured: "It's unexpected.
It’s really changed.”
Even though he used magic to hide his face, his face actually remained unchanged. But the old Taoist priest didn't use any magic, he just messed around with the things in his pockets, as if he had changed into a different person!
He has a medium appearance, rough eyebrows, and slightly thick lips. A calm aura exudes from this new face, which is why Wang Yuan was shocked.
"How is it?" The old Taoist priest smiled obscenely. In an instant, Wang Yuan withdrew from the shock. It turned out that no matter how the old Taoist priest in front of him changed, he could not change his obscene feeling.
Wang Yuan stared at the pocket on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Where are we going and why are we disguised?"
"Don't ask, just change your face quickly!" The old Taoist priest grabbed a ball of "meat ball" and put it on Wang Yuan's face.
…
Half an hour later, two figures walked out of the gap between the two rooms. One of them, a middle-aged man, looked around cautiously, but the young man behind him was handsome, with delicate features and a rather elegant attitude.
"Okay, you can go." The old Taoist priest waved his hand and ran out quickly as if he was hiding from someone. Wang Yuan frowned and chased after him.
After following the old Taoist priest, they didn't run very far and stopped outside an ordinary person's home. The old Taoist priest looked at Wang Yuan flatteringly and said with a smile: "Take out all your money. Today, I want to have a hand addiction!"
"
The money on Wang Yuan's body was all found in the storage bags of the people he killed. At that time, he just wanted to keep some, but he didn't expect that it would be used. Although he once gave me a bag of gold and silver to the old Taoist priest, Wang Yuan
There is still a lot left over.
Throwing out a bag, the old Taoist priest immediately caught it and shook it in his hand a few times, with a more obscene meaning, "Hey, let's double it today!"
The old Taoist priest took a few steps forward, coughed a few times to moisten his throat, and then began to knock on the door.
Suddenly, Wang Yuan's ears perked up, and he heard that the old Taoist priest knocked on the door in a regular pattern, three short and one long, with intervals of exactly one breath, which seemed to be a secret signal.
Not long after, a heavy voice came from the room: "Who are you?"
The old Taoist priest smiled and said: "I picked up a shoe outside your house last night. I wonder if it belongs to you."
The sound in the room disappeared. The old Taoist priest was stunned for a moment, and when he was about to knock on the door again, the voice came out: "No." After saying that, he disappeared this time.
The old Taoist priest's eyes suddenly widened, he scratched his head and whispered: "Huh? The secret code has changed. How can we get in?"
At this time, Wang Yuan's eyes were full of interest, and he was guessing where the room was, and that he needed a secret code to enter. Judging from the fact that the person who answered in the room made no sound when walking, he seemed to be a master of martial arts.
This made Wang Yuan’s interest even deeper!
The old Taoist priest scratched his head and scratched his head. After a few breaths, he patted his disheveled hair and immediately thought of a solution. Then he knocked on the door again.
"Bang bang."
A moment later, the dull voice came out again: "Who are you?"
The old Taoist priest coughed lightly, with a lewd smile on his face, and said with a smile: "I picked up two taels of gold outside the door, is it yours?"
After a while, the voice said: "It's mine, come in."
The door was opened, and an old man in black clothes stood there. His face was covered with scars, but his eyes were bright and bright.
The old Taoist priest signaled Wang Yuan to come in, took out two taels of gold from his pocket, put it quietly in the old man's hand, and then walked into the room.
The door was closed, and the room was dark. Just when Wang Yuan was about to ask, a bright light flashed in front of him, and then he heard the laughter of the old Taoist priest: "Here, come here!"
I walked along the bright light and looked closely. It turned out to be a door. The old Taoist priest opened the door, and then the whole room had some warm light.
As soon as I walked out of this door, loud noises, yells and shouts filled my ears, steam was rising, and smoke was filling my ears.
This is a strange place. The room outside is just a secret door, but the real cave is here!
"Haha, I haven't come here to gamble my luck for a long time. Let me open your eyes and see my gambling skills!" The old Taoist priest smiled happily and had already integrated into the atmosphere.
Wang Yuan looked at the small room. There was a group of people surrounding it. There were about twenty people. They were all standing in battle with bare arms, rolling up their sleeves, holding banknotes in their hands, and shouting loudly, "Press up!"
Press down”!
Although Wang Yuan had never been to such a place, two words instantly popped into his mind: "Casino!"
This is a casino hidden in a remote location, but it has a secret whistle, and he is also a master of martial arts. It seems that the owner of this casino must be quite good!
When Wang Yuan was surprised, the old Taoist priest pulled Wang Yuan's sleeve, pushed the crowd away, and came to the edge of the small table.
Wang Yuan had never seen such a scene before, and he immediately wanted to leave, but he was firmly fixed on it.
"This place is filled with all kinds of emotions. I have a better understanding of the world of mortals. I can't leave!" Wang Yuan held this belief and began to look at these tough people.
The old Taoist priest couldn't stop laughing. If Wang Yuan hadn't determined that the old Taoist priest was not an ordinary person, then he would be an old guy addicted to gambling!
