Chapter 34 The Counter
"I didn't!"
Listening to the chatter around her, the girl suddenly screamed, and she struggled like crazy and rushed out towards the crowd.
Seeing this, the onlookers immediately dodged a way, unwilling to stop the girl.
"Dare to run!"
There was a roar of angry cheers behind him, and when the crowd dispersed on both sides, he saw a plain and white-haired old man walking quickly, and his five fingers grabbed the fleeing girl with eagle claws.
The little girl was no more than seven or eight years old, dressed in tatters, with a thick dirt on her collar, her hair disheveled, and her face as dirty as a little cat.
The little girl looked panicked, panicked, rushed out of the crowd directly, and a figure suddenly appeared in her eyes, and then she was directly bounced back and fell to the ground.
As if feeling the coolness coming from behind her, the little girl didn't care about the pain, crawled directly in front of the figure that knocked her down, and immediately looked up, just in front of the woman in front of her.
Probably feeling that there was no malice in the woman's eyes, the little girl crawled and hugged the other party's legs directly, and blood gushed out from the wounds on a pair of small hands, dyeing the corners of the woman's pants red.
"I didn't steal, I really didn't steal."
The little girl looked up, and the tears that she held back slid down in an instant, leaving two tear stains on her face, and she kept repeating the words "I didn't steal" in her mouth.
Seeing this, the plain-clothed old man did not rush forward, stopped at the position of more than three zhang, squinted his eagle-like eyes, and looked at the woman in front of him.
But after such a look, Su Yi Lao Dao found that he couldn't even notice the other party's cultivation.
Between monks, if they are not aware of each other's cultivation, it may be that the other party's cultivation is too high, or that an ordinary person has not cultivated, or that he has used some kind of magic weapon that can conceal his cultivation.
But how can a person who can enter the mountains be an ordinary person.
Therefore, the woman in front of her either cultivated too much to be higher than him, or used a magic weapon to hide her cultivation.
But either way, it's not easy to mess with.
On the Shengyuan Continent, there are many kinds of martial arts weapons, but the magic weapons that can conceal cultivation are extremely rare. Because this kind of magic weapon is basically in the hands of those transcendent forces on the mainland.
Thinking of this, Lao Dao was in a dilemma for a while.
He said tentatively: "Poor Dao Law is a Taoist, I don't know who Your Excellency is. ”
Seeing that the woman in front of him was speechless, he pointed to the little girl on the ground and said, "This son is stubborn, stealing poor things, and I hope that Your Excellency will not shield such a stubborn son." ”
"Counter!"
"It's actually a Daoist!"
Before Ji Daoren's words fell, the onlookers looked sideways, stared at the old Taoist incredulously, and whispered one after another.
"Who is the Counter?" Someone asked.
"You don't even know about the Daoists? The news of that friend is a little shallow, I don't know if you have heard of the battle of Mount Meru a hundred years ago. ”
"I've heard of that. When the abandoned city appeared, countless strong people on the mainland heard the wind and left, gathered in Mount Meru, and wanted to see the true face of the ancient ruins, but unfortunately they were blocked by those old bald donkeys, blocked under Mount Meru, and finally caused dissatisfaction among the strong people from all walks of life, and forced into Mount Meru. I heard that the battle was particularly tragic, although the Buddhism guarded the abandoned city, but the Buddhism disciples were killed and injured countless times, which also led to the decline of the Buddhism in the past hundred years. ”
"No, no, no."
"What's wrong?"
"In fact, the Buddha Gate did not guard the Lost City back then." Someone spoke slowly.
"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”
The man continued: "The Buddha Gate was defeated back then, and in the end, it was the mountain protection array of Mount Meru that allowed the Buddha Gate to avoid the fate of almost destroying the Gate. ”
"So serious!" The crowd was shocked.
Buddhism is the most powerful transcendent existence in the Western Regions, and I never thought that there would be such a secret a hundred years ago.
"And then?" Someone continued to ask, and everyone's eyes fell on the young man who spoke.
The young man is dressed brightly, his face is delicate, and his casually matched ice blue robe is matched with an angular facial feature, which is a good jade tree in the wind.
Seeing everyone's eyes gathered, the young man stood with his sword in his arms, and his expression was inevitably a little more proud.
He pretended to be mysterious and said: "After the Buddha Gate retreated to Mount Meru, the powerhouses from all walks of life entered the Lost City, but when they arrived at the Lost City, they found that the original ancient array had been broken, and the Lost City was already empty. ”
Someone wondered: "Could it be that the treasure was stolen by the Buddha Gate in advance?" ”
"I don't think so, at that time, the Buddha Gate was trying its best to block all forces, how could there be a chance to break the big array and remove the treasures." Someone retorted.
"I think Buddhism is more likely......"
Everyone has a word and I say a word, and no one can convince anyone for a while. Seeing this, the young man coughed before he pulled everyone's attention back to him.
I saw him say: "Actually, the treasure was not taken away by the Buddhist Gate, but someone had carefully observed the man's method of breaking the formation, which was from the hands of the Daoist people." ”
"What? It turned out to be him! ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes fell on the old man in plain clothes, and his eyes were full of heat.
"He actually ransacked the Lost City under the noses of the Buddha Gate and many powerful people." Someone was stunned.
Thinking that the old Dao in front of him might have the treasures of the entire city on his body, everyone's eyes became hot, and they each had a ghost in their hearts, but no one dared to step forward.
can loot the abandoned city from the hands of all strong people and retreat with their whole body, the strength is beyond their ability, and no one dares to be the first bird.
At this time, the Taoist had no leisure to care about the discussion of the crowd, he stared at the woman with sharp eyes.
Ji Dao people know very well that the powerful enemies in this world are often not terrible, and the most terrifying thing is the unknown.
Just as Lao Dao was thinking about what to do, he saw the woman suddenly raise his hand, Lao Dao's heart tightened, and just as he was about to escape with luck, he heard the woman's low voice sound.
"This fellow Daoist, since this female doll has stolen your things, she is at your disposal, and the old body will naturally not shield such a stubborn person."
As she spoke, under the dull gaze of everyone, the woman helped the little girl up and sent her to Lao Dao.
The old man was stunned.
He didn't seem to react until the woman's voice sounded again, "Little doll, remember not to steal again, just give back to others if you steal." ”
"I didn't steal, I didn't steal it, it ran into me on its own." The little girl was very emotional, screaming and trying to break free and escape.
Ji Daoren grabbed the little girl and scolded: "It's clear that you ate it, and this move is clearly stealing, and you dare to quibble." ”
"I didn't! Not me! ”
Ji Daoren didn't care, grabbed the little girl's collar and walked back.
"Let go of me! Let me go! ”
Now the little girl was really anxious, screaming louder, she struggled to resist, but her thin body couldn't move the palm of the old man at all.
