Chapter 8: Defeat Him

Jinzhou City, the city lord's mansion.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the selection.

Wang Jin, the lord of Jinzhou City, was also a martial artist when he was young, even if his body is blessed now, he still has the strength of the eighth grade, a national face, a long beard, and he is very majestic on weekdays, but at this time he has a warm smile on his face, and the spring breeze is blowing on his face.

Below, sat a young man in black.

The young man was about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with white face and phoenix eyes, and two mustaches shaved very well, although he was smiling, he still couldn't hide the seriousness in his eyes. The most noteworthy thing is that the palms of the young man in black are very white, but they give people a hard texture like jade.

"Hehe, Deacon Bai, a young talent, worthy of being a famous teacher and an iron arm!

Bai Yuxing, the deacon of the Six Doors Imperial Demon Division, the master is one of the four famous catchers - the iron arm. The kung fu in his hands has been practiced, and he is also a little famous in the rivers and lakes, and the stunt is a move 'empty-handed into the white blade', and it is rumored that below the seventh grade, there is no sword that can hurt him!

Bai Yuxing was old-fashioned, and he didn't get fluttering because of Wang Jin's sycophancy, smiled lightly, and replied: "Lord Wangcheng is serious, this time I came here, I also heard that under the jurisdiction of Jinzhou, there are several geniuses, so they will be selected, otherwise the good seedlings who practice so much will flow into those Jianghu sects, who knows if they will go on the evil road?"

"Yes, yes!" Wang Jin nodded yes and continued: "In this selection, there are two people worth paying attention to, one is Wang Shan, the daughter of the Wang family in Jiuqi Town, who is only fifteen years old, and has already reached the ninth grade!"

Wang Jin spared no effort to praise his distant niece.

"As for the other, it is the Zhao family in Pinghegou in the north - Zhao Rui, although he is older, eighteen years old, but now he has reached the realm of the lower eight grades!"

When Bai Yuxing heard this, he nodded and said, "It is indeed two good seedlings, we will pay attention to them when they are selected!"

"We?" Wang Jin suddenly paid attention to the key point and asked, "Could it be that there are other adults in the six doors in this selection?"

Bai Yuxing nodded and said, "In addition to me, there is also a Dao Master, who is my Demon Si Keqing, looking at the time, it should be almost up......"

......

The north gate of Jinzhou City, a small wine shop.

A man, a woman, and a beast were resting at a table by the roadside.

"Tang Xian, have you finished eating?" Wang Shan said impatiently.

"Hehe, it's almost there!" Tang Xian and Brother Pingtou were two, one person nibbled on a big meat bun, so uncomfortable.

While eating, Tang Xian's eyes also peeked at the daughter of the owner of the wine shop from time to time.

The little girl is the same age as Tang Xian, her clothes are very simple, her face is not very well maintained, with traces of being blown by the wind all year round, but her big black eyes are extraordinarily spiritual and unforgettable.

Tang Xian was looking at it happily, and a voice came from next to Leng Buding: "Have you seen enough!"

Tang Xian shuddered, and when he looked back, Wang Shan was already covered with frost, and the internal force in his hands was running to slap the table, and the dishes and chopsticks on the table were shocked.

Unexpectedly, he broke through to the cultivation of the upper ninth grade!

"Yo! jealous?" Tang Xian smiled as if he had discovered a new continent, and teased Wang Shan with words.

Wang Shan's face was cold.

Tang Xian was not afraid, poured a glass of wine, learned from the romantic noble son in the novel, and said leisurely: "Why don't you have a cup too?" You know, vinegar can cure hangover, wine ...... It can also relieve vinegar!"

Just when Wang Shan wanted to slash at Tang Xian with the knife in his sleeve, suddenly a voice came from beside him: "The poor road has passed through the treasure land, I want to ask for a bowl of plain noodles to fill my stomach, and I hope to give alms......"

Wang Shan and Tang Xian turned their heads and saw that it was a Taoist priest, with rags and swishing clothes, and carrying a wooden sword on his back.

Tang Xian smiled and said arrogantly: "It's just a bowl of somen noodles, count it as mine! Little sister, come and give a bowl to this Taoist master!"

Wang Shan said: "Do you have the money to please?"

Tang Xian was surprised: "Didn't you invite this meal?"

At this time, the poor Taoist priest had already sat down, waved at Tang Xian, and said, "Thank you for this donor." ”

"Hmph!" Wang Shan was expressionless and said, "He just wants to show his generosity in front of other girls, and he doesn't need to thank him!"

"When the noble sons on the rivers and lakes saw the little folk girls of Peugeot, they all threw the silver tickets directly to reward, but I am such a poor ......" Tang Xian looked at Wang Shan resentfully, raised his eyebrows and said: "Or ...... Woman, will you reward her with a hundred taels of silver for me?"

Facing such a scoundrel Tang Xian. Wang Shan decided that she would not eat Tang Xian's vinegar, or ...... Don't let him see that he's jealous.

"Cut! Sooner or later, one day you will willingly reward other little folk girls for me!" Tang Xian continued to challenge Wang Shan's patience.

Wang Shan was silent.

Tang Xian was bored with himself, but instead provoked this Taoist priest and said, "Under Tang Xian!"

Although the poor Taoist priest was a little dumbfounded, he also hurriedly replied: "Yixin Taoist priest!"

Tang Xian frowned: "Yixin of virtue and art?"

The one-hearted Taoist priest corrected: "One heart and one heart!"

Then, there was an awkward pause for a few seconds, as if no one had thought of any suitable topic, and the Taoist priest chatted awkwardly: "Waiting for the idle people...... Idle?"

Tang Xian paused, and solemnly corrected: "Leisurely and elegant leisure!"

Finally, Wang Shan interrupted the awkward conversation between the two and asked, "Where is the Taoist chief going?"

The Yixin Taoist priest seemed to have never spoken to such a beautiful woman, and he was a little stunned. After a long time, Cai Mu Ne said: "Six doors to select ......"

Huh? Another selection?

Tang Xian was stunned for a moment, and then leaned to Wang Shan's side obscenely, and whispered, "Competitors." Still a Taoist priest!"

You must know that among the six doors, there are two divisions of the demon and the town of ghosts, so it is inevitable to cooperate with the Taoists often, such as the two Taoist holy places today - Zhongnan Mountain Heavenly Master's Mansion and Wuyi Mountain Taoist Temple, there are often Taoist priests who go down the mountain to be the guest of the six doors, so if you are born in the Taoist gate, it is very beneficial to the selection of the six doors!

"Look at me to help you get him first!" Tang Xian gave Wang Shan a 'I am very righteous' look.

Afterwards, Tang Xian cordially hugged the Yixin Taoist priest, handed over a big meat bun, and said: "What's so delicious about somen noodles, when the Taoist chief is growing his body, eat more meat!"

The Yixin Taoist priest hurriedly pushed it away and said continuously: "You can't eat, you can't eat!"

"Why?" Tang Xian asked.

Yixin Taoist priest said: "Before leaving, the master said that those who cultivate the Tao need to be pure in heart and have few desires, otherwise they will not be able to spy on the Great Dao, abstain from meat and sex, and ......."

"Stop, stop, stop!" Tang Xian was troubled by the chatter, and asked casually: "How do you know that you can't spy on the avenue when you eat meat?"

"No, the master said it!" said the Taoist priest sincerely.

"That'...... Has your master ever eaten meat?" Tang Xian asked.

"No, the master's master said ......" The Yixin Taoist priest was a little weak-hearted.

"Cut!" Tang Xian showed a look of contempt, and then asked, "You monks, what is the way of cultivation?"

Yixin Taoist priest said seriously: "The Tao is the Tao, the extraordinary Tao, the Tao is all things in heaven and earth, people are coming, birds are the way, animals are the way, and flowing water is the ......"

"Is that meat a way?" Tang Xian interrupted.

Yixin Taoist: "Uh......"

"If the meat is the Tao, how can you know the taste of it if you don't eat it?

You must know that Tang Xian and Old Man Lu have more than ten years of storytelling skills, and they are still at ease when they fool a little Taoist priest who has just come out of the mountain.

"I ......" Yixin Taoist priest didn't know what to say at all.

Because the one-minded Taoist priest who had always believed in the master's words, suddenly found that he seemed to be moved by Tang Xian's words.

was struggling, only to hear Tang Xian say again: "Make a bet?"

The Yixin Taoist priest let go of the entanglement in his heart and asked, "What kind of bet?"

Tang Xian said: "I bet that you will not be able to spy on the Great Dao at all according to what your master said! If you lose, you promise me one thing, if I lose, I promise you one thing!"

The Yixin Taoist priest seemed to be stirred up a ripple in his heart, and said unconvinced: "How to bet?"

Tang Xian smiled mysteriously and asked, "Your master not only asked you to quit meat, but also quit sex, right?"

The Yixin Taoist priest nodded.

Whether it is the abstinence of meat or not, but the abstinence of sex, the Taoist priest is convinced. Wealth cannot be adulterous, this is what the sage said.

"Here you come~"

I saw Tang Xian sneaky, came to the side of the Taoist priest, glanced at no one around, and then took it into his arms.

This strange scene aroused Wang Shan's curiosity, and she couldn't help but poke her little head over.

I saw Tang Xian take out a book, and there were three big characters written on the cover - "Spring Palace Map"!

Turning it open, the contents of it are full of flowers and mysteries......

"Stinky rascal!" Wang Shan hurriedly covered her eyes and shook her head desperately, as if she wanted to shake off the scene she had just seen.

The one-minded Taoist priest suddenly blushed, like a monkey's buttocks, and the one-minded Taoist priest, who was originally unfazed in the face of life and death, panicked at this time, and hurriedly pushed Tang Xian away, silently chanting 'Heavenly Master is above' in his mouth, and tried to calm the boiling qi and blood in the dantian......

"You've lost!" Tang Xian said calmly.

The Yixin Taoist priest finally calmed down, but he still blushed and said unconvinced: "Why did I lose?"

Tang Xian said: "Your master's teaching of your pure heart and few desires is not to cultivate the Great Dao, but to let you escape, to keep you away from those things that you have no resistance to. If one day you really taste the taste of meat, or break the color ring, you will eat the marrow and know the taste, and you will be out of control!"

"Is this the avenue you want?"

The Taoist priest was so focused that he had nothing to say.

Seeing that the Yixin Taoist priest did not speak, Tang Xian continued: "The real avenue is that the meat is placed in front of you, but you don't want to eat it at all. When a woman stripped off her clothes and stood in front of you, your heart could be like a rock! This is the foundation of cultivation!"

Tang Xian shouted sharply: "Cultivating the Tao, cultivating the heart! Not escaping!"

A word was like a heavy hammer, smashing into the heart of the Yixin Taoist priest, leaving him stunned like a chicken, unable to calm down for a long time.

What to do? What is the right thing to do?

The Taoist priest was terrified to find that he had firmly believed in his beliefs for twenty years, but at this moment he was actually broken apart by Tang Xian's blow!

Could it be that what the master said was wrong?

I saw that the eyes of the Taoist priest were gray, his fingertips trembled, his face was pale, his lips were purple, and his heart was dead more than sad.

"I can help you!"

Tang Xian's words were like a dawn in the dark night, a ray of light in the deep sea, through layers of fog, and shot into the heart of a Taoist priest.

As if grasping the last straw to save his life, the Yixin Taoist priest desperately grabbed Tang Xian's hand, and roared hoarsely: "What should I do!"

"So...... I won the bet?" Tang Xian asked.

The Yixin Taoist priest nodded desperately.

"Grant me a request?"

The Yixin Taoist priest continued to nod desperately.

"Huh...... Simple!" Tang Xian smiled lightly like a master in the world.

Then he stuffed the "Spring Palace Map" that had been treasured for several years into the arms of the Yixin Taoist priest, and said earnestly: "Look more! Defeat him!"

The Taoist priest nodded solemnly.

Tang Xian quietly turned around, nodded at Wang Shan, smiled cheaply, and made a lip shape: "It's done!"
