Chapter 65: The Unfathomable Old Taoist

This story, the old Taoist priest has heard his master tell countless times, this happened in the early days of the Republic of China, that year, the whole country was in chaos, the old Taoist master, that is, Wu Xuanwang, was just an ordinary peasant boy at that time, Wu Xuanwang at that time, there was no ideal, let alone any ambition, his only dream was to have a full meal to eat every day, which was enough.

At that time, the gap between the rich and the poor was too great, and there were very many poor people, and there were few full meals to eat all year round.

If that accident hadn't happened, maybe Wu Xuanwang could only be a farmer in his life and live a life in chaos.

That year, Wu Xuanwang's village was robbed by bandits, and most of the food in the entire village was taken away, and Wu Xuanwang's wife at that time was also captured by the bandits as a wife of the village.

Wu Xuanwang is just a peasant, how can he beat a whole group of bandits, but he didn't give up, he went to break into the bandits' den alone, the outcome can be imagined, he was beaten half to death and locked up in prison, and her wife, unable to endure the bullying of the bandits, bit her tongue and committed suicide.

After the death of his wife, Wu Xuanwang was so grief-stricken that he wanted to commit suicide and went to Huangquan with his wife, but in the end, he resisted the idea of suicide, he thought, since he was going to die, how could he pull a few bandits to the bottom to avenge his wife.

With a heart of revenge, Wu Xuanwang lived in the prison of the bandits' den for half a year, and finally by chance, he escaped from the prison, he did not run out of the bandits' den, but found a knife.

It was night, except for a few bandits on patrol, the other bandits were asleep, and no one thought that Wu Xuanwang would run out.

After Wu Xuanwang secretly killed several sleeping bandits with a knife, he was finally discovered, and he was arrested again, and the bandit leader did not kill him immediately, but tied him to a pillar in the cottage's martial arts training ground.

First he starved him for three days, then every day he was given only water, exposed to the sun, whipped with a leather whip, and in order to prevent him from committing suicide, the bandits gagged him with a rotten cloth.

tortured for half a month, just when Wu Xuanwang was about to die.

A Taoist priest and a cheongsam woman in a red robe appeared, behind the Taoist priest's red robe, embroidered with the word Xuanshi, and next to the Taoist priest, the woman in the cheongsam had a very indifferent expression, as if nothing in the world could impress her expression.

The appearance of the two made Wu Xuanwang, who was on the verge of death, see a glimmer of hope, he didn't know how he had such a thought, after all, there were only two of them, and their bodies were not very strong, but in the bandit den, there were dozens of bandits, and there were even muskets among them.

But what happened next changed the fate of Wu Xuanwang for the rest of his life, the Taoist priest seemed to be very angry, he took out a peachwood sword, those bandits, under his peachwood sword, almost failed to survive a move, this Taoist priest did not show any mercy, every move was fatal, in just a few minutes, Wu Xuanwang had seen nearly half of the bandits die under the peachwood sword.

When he saw the appearance of the musket, Wu Xuanwang was worried about the Taoist priest, but this Taoist priest was not afraid at all, all the bullets of the musket were dodged by him, his speed was very fast, when a bandit shot a shot, and when he was loading, the Taoist priest's peach wood sword was already on the bandit's neck, and with a slight stroke, the peach wood sword that seemed to have no lethal power easily took away a human life.

And when the Taoist priest killed the bandits, the cheongsam woman walked towards Wu Xuanwang, untied him, and fed him a pill at the same time.

He was already dying, but after taking the pill, the internal organs in his body, as if given vitality, were slowly healing themselves, although he couldn't see his body, but Wu Xuanwang could clearly feel it.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Wu Xuanwang stood up like an ordinary person, this half month of torture had already tortured him into a human being, a ghost or a ghost, but after taking the pill, he felt that his body was the healthiest and strongest in his life.

After Wu Xuanwang reacted, he hurriedly thanked the cheongsam woman, but the woman just glanced at him coldly and didn't say anything.

Wu Xuanwang was a little embarrassed, and then he looked at the Taoist priest, it didn't matter if he didn't look at it, he was startled when he saw it, there were dozens of bandit corpses lying on the ground, and at this time, the Taoist priest also inserted the peachwood sword into the heart of the bandit leader, ending all this.

The entire bandit den, with the arrival of Taoist priests and cheongsam women, was also disbanded.

After being saved, Wu Xuanwang asked the Taoist priest's surname, and the Taoist priest said that his name was Lin Xuanshi, and the cheongsam woman next to him was his sister-in-law, called Lin Kuier.

Compared with Lin Kui'er's indifference, Taoist Lin Xuanshi is approachable and very good at talking. Wu Xuanwang was originally an orphan, and after his wife died, he didn't plan to go back to the village, and when he saw that Lin Xuanshi was so powerful, he had the urge to apprentice.

Wu Xuanwang asked him why he didn't accept himself, and Lin Xuanshi told him that without the permission of his master, he couldn't accept apprentices without the permission of his master, and he had something to do, and he couldn't teach him Taoism.

Just when Wu Xuanwang was disappointed, Lin Xuanshi recommended a place to him, Wudang Mountain.

With Lin Xuanshi's letter of recommendation, Wu Xuanwang came to Wudang Mountain to apprentice with a worried heart, and it is conceivable that with Lin Xuanshi's letter of recommendation, Wu Xuanwang directly became a Taoist priest in Wudang Mountain.

At this point in the story, the old Taoist priest stopped. After a while, the old Taoist priest said to Lin Mo: "My master often says that if there is no help from two benefactors, I am afraid that he will be dead."

Lin Mo waved his hand lightly and replied, "It's been so many years, and that was my previous life." Don't call me a benefactor, it's a little weird."

"Okay, then I'll call you Miss Lin, by the way, is Brother Ling here? Master's only regret in this life is that I didn't express my gratitude to that Master Lin Xuan" Speaking of this, the old Taoist priest paused, only to see him scratch his pale hair, and said with an embarrassed smile: "My master once said that no matter how hard I work in my life, I can't compare to any Lin Xuanshi Daoist, so I want to see the gap between myself and Xuanshi Daoist"

Hearing the old Taoist priest ask about Lin Nian, Lin Mo's face showed a hint of gloom, and said, "I'm afraid I'll disappoint you, Daoist, my brother has already gone to the Inhuman Realm."

"Inhuman Realm?" the old Taoist priest muttered, he sighed and said, "The rumored treasure land that is most suitable for Inhuman cultivation, I also want to take a look."

Lin Mo thought that the old Taoist priest's strength was insufficient, so he would make such an exclamation, so she persuaded: "Daoist, there must be a chance, I feel that your strength is also unfathomable, you should soon be able to reach the innate level, and you have the qualifications to enter the alien world."

The old Taoist shook his head with a wry smile, he didn't go around with Lin Mo or pretend to be mysterious, and said directly: "The old Taoist is already a congenital two-level, and he still has the qualifications to enter the alien world, otherwise he wouldn't dare to say anything compared to the appearance of the Xuanshi Dao."

Hearing this, Lin Mo was taken aback, glared and said, "Innate two levels, don't you have three thousand years of Taoism?"
