Chapter 47: For the sake of the façade

I feigned composure to say these words, but as soon as I said them, a deep sense of guilt rose in my heart.

I probably knew the truth in my heart, but I couldn't say it, especially under the noses of so many people.

One is that there is no evidence, and the other is that I am afraid of startling the snake, which is the same now, but I never thought that my discovery might have cost Li Haibo his life.

I said this nonsense, Xu Youqiang on the side frowned, as if he was a little puzzled, but he didn't say anything.

I knew he must have had a lot to say, but it was just like what I thought, so I endured it.

"It's not unreasonable." Changxia Dao Chang said softly on the side.

As a Taoist, finger telling is a basic skill, but it is rare for a practitioner to tell his own fortune.

If Li Haibo breaks his vows and finds that his limit is approaching, with his usual style, he may do something to be planted after death.

I said something unintentionally, and most of the people around me believed it.

Although they have lived with Li Haibo since childhood, they also know his character, so it is not surprising that they do such a thing.

It's just that the strange place in the middle seems to have been subconsciously erased by everyone.

An examination of the Taoist certificate ended in vain.

Li Haibo is also an orthodox person no matter how he says it, and it is said that a funeral was held for him afterwards, and for several days in a row, the orthodox territory was spread with a sad atmosphere.

Afterwards, I stayed in my room for a day, and I kept thinking about the cause and effect of the incident until Changxia Daoist found me.

"Changxia Dao Chief?"

When I saw Changxia Daochang, I was really a little surprised.

He nodded to me, put the tray in his hand on the table, and then turned to close the door.

"Listen to Youqiang, you haven't eaten much lately, I'll send you something, are you still thinking about the first few days?"

I nodded silently, my fingertips trembling.

Seeing me like this, Changxia Dao sighed and sighed: "I know, if you don't find the real culprit, you must be unconvinced, especially if that person is still behind you, maybe he will frame you again." ”

"Daoist Changxia, do you also think that Li Haibo's death was not caused by himself?"

"Of course." Changxia Daoist shook his head with a wry smile, "It's just that this statement can temporarily suppress everyone, I know you want to find out the real culprit behind the scenes, but I advise you to wait a little longer." ”

Chief Changxia sat down in front of me and pushed the food on the tray towards me.

"No matter what Li Haibo says, he is also a disciple of Xuan Yichang, and now that this kind of thing has happened, you have to insist on tracking down the real culprit behind the scenes, I am afraid that the most ugly person in terms of face will be Xuanyi Chang."

"But that's his apprentice, the death is unknown, doesn't he want to find out the real murderer?"

My voice was a little intense, and as soon as I said it, I realized that something was wrong and quickly apologized.

Changxia Daoist waved his hand, signaling that I was okay.

"You have anger and resentment in your heart, I can understand it, but you do things orthodoxically, and you have never done it for outsiders, and they have always protected their families, maybe they have started a private investigation, if you bring this matter to the table, everyone will not end well."

I was silent, what did Changxia Daoist mean by what he said, I probably understood, just let me not continue to pursue it.

Not only for the sake of Xuan's long face, but also for the façade of this association.

If people know that there are people in the Taoist Association with despicable means, I am afraid that it will cause an uproar.

Is this going to be hidden? Hiding the matter under the façade in this way, the real cause of Li Haibo's death and who the real culprit is behind the scenes can only be investigated in the future.

This ending made me a little unacceptable, but Changxia Dao Chang was in front of him again, and what he said was true, so I couldn't refute his face.

After a few moments, I nodded with some difficulty.

"I know, I won't mention these things again until Li Haibo's funeral is over."

With my assurance, Daoist Changxia also looked relieved, and comforted me a few more words before leaving.

After he left, I sat in the room for a long time, and I made a decision in my heart.

Changxia Daoist looked at me, and Xu Youqiang also ran over.

After the accident that day, Xu Youqiang and I had a tacit understanding again, and we would never tell what Li Haibo did, and even Changxia Daoist decided to hide it first.

I also told Xu Youqiang about my analysis, and I rarely saw Xu Youqiang being silent that day.

"Li Sheng, your Taoist certificate has arrived!"

Xu Youqiang held a document and hurriedly ran towards me with interest, and after seeing the things in his hand, I also rarely cheered up and took the document at the same time.

Yellow characters on a blue background, on the cover are three big gilded characters of the Taoist certificate, this card is no different from what the master showed me, and it can even be said to be exactly the same.

Since both certificates are the same, why is there no Master's name in the Taoist Association?

At first, I suspected that Master's certificate was fake, but after reading Xu Youqiang and my Taoist certificate, it was clear that it matched the certificate in my mind.

So what's going on here? Even if the master wants to make a false testimony, he will not do it so realistically, what is the secret in this? What did Master hide from me in those years?

"But Li Sheng, when you get this Taoist certificate, don't think that everything is complete, and becoming a real Taoist priest is not so simple."

Xu Youqiang pretended to sit next to me mysteriously, and I could see that he deliberately wanted to liven up the atmosphere, so I could only barely hook the corners of my mouth and ask cooperatively, "Then what else do you need?" ”

Xu Youqiang smiled, crossed his fingers and counted with me.

"Those who have not taken the Taoist certificate belong to ordinary little Taoists, and those who have obtained the Taoist certificate can become intern Taoists, if you want to become a real Taoist, you still need to undergo a training."

"What grind?" Hearing this, I suddenly became a little curious.

"That's going down the mountain to catch demons."

Xu Youqiang said these words slowly, and when I heard the word demon, my smile became lighter, and I suddenly remembered the scene I saw at the bottom of the mountain that day.

Catching demons, I am afraid that after these demons are caught, they will provide essence for those Taoist priests with improper intentions.

If you really have to hunt demons to become an official Taoist, I'd rather not have this so-called title!

Xu Youqiang seemed to remember what I said to him before, slapped his head, and said with some annoyance: "Oh, it's all because I didn't tell you clearly, when you go down the mountain to catch demons, you still need to be with other peers. ”

"When you act together, I will follow, don't worry, with me, we will only catch those bad spirits, as for the others, I will try to avoid them."

Xu Youqiang opened his mouth to reassure, listening to his words, I felt a little better in my heart, but Xu Youqiang muttered a few more words next to him.
