Chapter 346: Taking Advantage of the Situation

Two extremely small paper cranes flew nimbly along the ground, grass, corners and other hidden corners, heading straight towards Liu Yu.

The Taoist priest Ban Sheng in the courtyard did not dare to delay anything for the sake of his beloved disciple's life.

He briefly told everyone in the courtyard that the purpose of their trip was to practice the spirit gathering formation, and that those who could be selected were talented disciples, and no one else would be selected.

As soon as these words were spoken, all the disciples, no matter how long they had been in the sect, were filled with joy, and they suddenly felt that they were the chosen ones of heaven, and they were completely unaware of the mockery in the eyes of the guards around them.

Taoist Bansheng then immediately announced their departure, and the fully armed guards in the inner courtyard obeyed his orders and carried out a pale-faced man from the house.

The few disciples who were secretly delighted in the field immediately recognized the man on the stretcher when they saw him.

I was curious and wondered if this wasn't Jiang Siqing, the last disciple of Taoist Bansheng?

When they saw that Jiang Qingsi was in a very bad condition and was barely breathing, they took a deep breath and were secretly shocked that someone dared to hurt him.

Apart from them, everyone else's eyes turned to the seriously injured and unconscious Jiang Qingsi, and they whispered to each other, curious about why he ended up in such a miserable state.

Only Zhuang Moxing looked indifferent the moment he saw Jiang Qingsi. He had already recognized him as the owner of the paper crane that day. He glanced at him and then looked away.

Taoist Bansheng naturally would not explain to everyone why the seriously injured Jiang Qingsi would go to Lingjiu Mountain on the outskirts of City B with them.

He looked at his beloved disciple with a look of heartache and urged everyone to move forward quickly.

Taoist Bansheng did not inform the temple master of all these things, and the many Taoist apprentices who were deceived were also secretly recruited by him.

In order to prevent anyone from ruining his plan, he quickly arranged for everyone to leave through the back door of Detian Temple.

After strictly ordering all personnel at the various positions to board the truck, he immediately urged the driver to set off quickly.

From taking Zhuang Moxing away to setting off, the entire journey took less than ten minutes.

As a result, Liu Laodao and others who heard the news and hurried to Bansheng Taoist's courtyard were unable to stop the man and stood in the courtyard beating their chests and stamping their feet in regret.

Taoist He Lian looked at the deserted courtyard, his heart tightening slightly. Somehow, he felt a sense of unease, as if something big was about to happen...

He stroked his beard anxiously, gritted his teeth, and risked injury by counting with his fingers. However, even after counting until his dantian was shattered and aching, he still couldn't figure out a clue.

He coughed, closed his eyes dejectedly, clutched his throbbing dantian, and shouted in a deep voice, "Notify the abbot!"

At this time, Taoist Liu, who had searched the courtyard of Taoist Bansheng but couldn't find anyone, froze when he heard his shout, and his eyes wandered with a guilty look.

"No, not really. It's just a small matter. I just missed out on a talented apprentice. Maybe I can meet someone else in the future..."

When Taoist Master Wen Yi heard the sound, he looked a little evasive and didn't dare to speak out to wake up the abbot.

It’s not their fault that they didn’t dare to wake up the abbot. It’s because they have caused too many confusing things since the abbot of Detian Temple went into seclusion.

Previously, they had lost dozens of Taoist priests in the temple in order to verify the spiritual spring. If the temple master knew about this, he would definitely destroy their bones or whip their souls with the black thorns in the temple!

How could they not be afraid of such punishment!

But when Taoist He Lian saw the two guys keeping silent, he felt a breath stuck in his chest, unable to go up or down. He had never seen them act so recklessly!

Now that I'm afraid, why didn't I think about the consequences before doing that?!

Now, Taoist Bansheng has secretly brought a group of Taoists to open the spiritual spring, which will surely cost more than a dozen lives. Can Detian Temple bear such cause and effect?

Taoist He Lian was so angry when he thought about this that he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his knees instantly became weak and he knelt down.

Seeing this, Taoist Liu and Taoist Master Wen Yi were immediately shocked and rushed over to support him, calling out nervously: "Master He Lian! Master He Lian!"

When Taoist He Lian was in a daze, he did not hate the other Taoists for their reckless behavior, but only hated himself for being selfish.

He has been practicing the art of self-preservation since the abbot went into seclusion, never getting involved in the dirty business of other Taoist priests. However, he forgets that sometimes "inaction is a sin"!

With the last bit of rationality left, he grabbed Taoist Liu's collar and warned him word by word: "Something is wrong with Lingquan. We must wake up the master..."

His voice faltered, and his hand relaxed.

The remaining two people who were supporting him looked at each other anxiously.

At the same time, Liu Yu outside the examination room felt something sharp touching his ankle.

Looking down, she saw two tiny paper cranes poking her gently with their pointed beaks.

She raised her eyebrows and bent down to pick up the two paper cranes. Lingbao saw them and said curiously, "Eh? They're my brother's paper cranes!"

Then Lingbao noticed the subtle difference in the tails of the two paper cranes. He picked up the one with slightly longer tail feathers with his little hands and blew a breath of spiritual energy into it.

The chubby little hand covered the little paper crane and put it close to Liu Yu's ear, and his own little ear also quickly moved forward.

This was the first time Liu Yu had seen Ling Bao perform this operation. He did not dare to disturb him and kept his body at an angle without moving. Then, Zhuang Moxing's unique low voice suddenly came from the paper crane beside his ear.

"Xiao Yu, Lingbao, there's something fishy going on in the temple. I've been called to Lingju Mountain and Lingquan for a mission. That's one of the dragon veins I wanted to explore. You can wait for me back at the base or follow the paper crane. If you come, be very careful!"
