Chapter 363: The Old Daoist's Situation
The Huitian Sword Sect needed to pass through Qifeng Mountain, and when he saw that familiar mountain peak from afar, Zhuo Zangfeng suddenly missed the old Taoist priest very much. ┡E』 ㄟ.『
It's been a few years since I said goodbye, and I don't know how the old man is doing at his nephew's house?
Once he remembered it, he was very eager to see the old Taoist priest, tell him about the things after the separation, and tell him that he had won the Longmen big test list, and he would definitely be very happy......
Falling on the peak, looking at the mountain that has been turned over countless times for a long time, my mind is full of nostalgia.
Telling Shen Xiaoxiao about Lu Wuxian's injury, she also comforted her, although the girl was anxious, but thinking about the Heavenly Sword Sect's medical skills, she was not as panicked as when she first learned the news.
Just thinking of everything the World Sword Alliance has done, Lu Xiaoxiao can't wait to kill the big housekeeper with his own hands, and kill the person who did it to his brother and father in the first place.
For Wei Moran, the good feeling in her heart became much weaker because of hatred.
In her heart, she may still like this Wei Gongzi, but after this incident, it seems that it is gradually insignificant.
She is full of respect for Zhuo Zangfeng, and even mixed with a trace of inexplicable fear, but with him, she can feel a sense of security that she has never felt.
She is willing to do anything for Zhuo Zangfeng, even if she is allowed to die, she will not have the slightest complaint.
The sun peeked out from behind the mountain, and the golden light shone obliquely on Zhuo Zangfeng's body, and his contemplative expression fell on Shen Xiaoxiao's eyes, making her feel inexplicably that meeting him was the luckiest thing in her life.
Ask herself, she doesn't know if she likes this man who rescued herself from the fire, but let her entire enemy fall into the fire again.
She suddenly felt that the man in front of her who was not far away from her was too admirable.
That's right, admiration, not love?
Lu Xiaoxiao is not sure.
......
......
Qingshui Town is thirty miles away from Qifeng Mountain, and standing on the town's not wide streets, the majestic mountains show a sense of desolation and heaviness.
The swallows fly away and fly back every year, and still land on the beam, but unfortunately it is currently in winter, the swallow's nest is empty, and the small courtyard looks extremely lonely.
The cold wind was dry and cold, and the old Taoist priest walked back and forth in the courtyard with his hands caged, looking out through the low earthen wall from time to time, looking a little restless.
Suddenly, his eyelids twitched a few times, and the uneasy feeling in the old Taoist priest's heart became even stronger.
A country woman in her forties walked into the courtyard, her face smeared with inferior rouge stretched long, and she glanced at the old Taoist priest out of the corner of her eye.
"Don't make a mess, stay in the house, if something like this happens, you old bones don't help, don't walk around here and make people laugh!"
The old Taoist priest was speechless, ignored her words, showed a helpless expression on his face, and still refused to enter the house.
The woman whispered, "Old man does not die!" and went into the house.
After a while, the woman's younger brother walked into the courtyard, ignored the old Taoist priest, and went directly into the house to talk to his sister.
Being snubbed is nothing, and he has experienced hardships when he is in the Taoist Temple of Qifeng Mountain, but fortunately, he raised Zhuo Zangfeng, and the old Taoist priest feels that this is the most beneficial thing he has done in this life.
"Alas!"
He sighed, coughed twice, and was silent. He was ashamed of his inability to do anything.
Staying in someone else's home, except for this honest nephew who treats him well, everyone else is ignorant of him.
Usually the nephew is at home, and the niece and daughter-in-law don't dare to be so presumptuous, but yesterday the nephew was arrested by a cultivation sect in the town because of an incident, and there is no information until now.
The nephew, daughter-in-law, sister and brother inquired many times, but there was no news, the old Taoist priest was worried, and he didn't blame others for scolding him, but hated himself for being powerless.
Just as he was about to go out and ask others, four big men barged in.
One of them stretched out his hand and pushed the old Taoist priest away, and if he hadn't been leaning against the wall, he would have fallen to the ground.
"Old thing, get out of here!"
The other thought he was in the way, and after scolding, he whipped him on the back, tearing a hole in the coarse cloth clothes on his body.
The wind poured into the mouth and the pain was incomparable, and the old Taoist priest swallowed his anger and didn't dare to do it, but just grinned in pain.
When the nephew and daughter-in-law and his brother heard the noise, they hurried out of the house, though their faces were pale with fright, and their faces were still piled with unnatural smiles.
"I don't know that my husband has offended the Heavenly Star Sect, and the little woman has apologized for you for him!" the woman saluted again and again.
His younger brother has always been regarded as a person with some status in the town, and when he saw these fierce and vicious Heavenly Star Sect disciples, he was also troubled.
"Hmph, your husband dares to sell meat in our Tianxing Sect's territory, and he doesn't understand the rules at all. Dahan said coldly.
"Yes, he is a ghost, please report to your sect master, for my sake, let's give some money, and let him out." ”
The woman's brother, who thought he had some face, hurriedly interceded.
"How old are you? In front of our Heavenly Star Sect, you don't even count a fart! It is natural to pay money, I see that you are also a small family, so take a thousand taels of silver to ransom people, otherwise you will ......"
The words of the Great Han did not come out, but according to the style of the Heavenly Star Sect, they could all think of what the result would be if they did not follow the other party's orders.
The woman shuddered at the thought of the consequences, and looked at her brother for help.
Seeing that the other lion opened his mouth, his brother also dared to be angry and did not dare to speak.
His brother-in-law usually sells meat in the town, but this time he just gave two catties of fine meat to Liu Laosan, who was across the street from the Tianxing Sect, and was recognized by the Tianxing Sect as doing business in their territory and caught the snake
Now they are extorting money, and the export is thousands of taels of silver, and it is difficult for a small business to make so much money in a lifetime, and they are really willing to open their mouths.
"You simply don't have the law of the king! This is the world of the Tang Dynasty, not a place where your cultivation sect can decide the life and death of others at will. ”
The old Taoist priest used to be a member of the imperial court, and everything was based on the king's law, and seeing that the Heavenly Star Sect was bullying people too much, he couldn't help but roar angrily.
Just such a sentence, a hoarse voice roared out, although it was old, but it gave people a bit of majesty.
When the disciples of the Heavenly Star Sect heard this, they turned their heads and saw that it was the old man who was blocking the door, and they froze for a moment, and instantly became fierce.
"Isn't this old thing alive?"
The disciple who had whipped the old Taoist priest just now had a fierce look in his eyes, stepped over, picked up the whip and whipped it towards the old man's head and face.
The other disciples looked at it coldly, eager to beat this old man who didn't know whether he was alive or dead to vent his hatred.
In fact, the Heavenly Star Sect did not capture the old Taoist nephew for no reason.
Although their sect does not allow others to do business on their own territory, they will not arrest people after selling two catties of meat.
Because the old Taoist nephew did business fairly, he robbed the business of a disciple of the sect, and used the excuse to rectify it in an attempt to occupy their butcher shop.
For these, the old Taoist nephew, daughter-in-law and his brother don't know, how can they hide it from the old Taoist?
The old Taoist priest dodged left and right under the whip, but he was weak and sickly, where could he dodge, and his face and body were instantly torn open by the whip.
Just as the disciples of the Extreme Heavenly Star Sect were looking at it with cold eyes, an angry voice said, "The dog thief is here!"
