Chapter 345: Kidnapping Zhuang Moxing
Taoist Liu pretended not to notice the short-bearded Taoist's stiff expression and took the talisman directly.
After carefully examining the Explosion Talisman in his hand, he uttered a sigh and asked, "Is the topic of today's entrance examination to be the Continuation Talisman?"
The short-bearded Taoist priest glanced at Taoist He Lian's expression and replied awkwardly, "Yes..."
Upon hearing this, Taoist Liu's eyes widened in surprise, and his expression suddenly became serious: "Are you sure you're not trying to trick me with the explosive talisman drawn by your master? I won't forgive you if you dare to lie!"
The magic that Liu Laodao specialized in was an evil magic that was looked down upon by the ancient noble and upright sects. However, although it was not taken seriously by the upright sects, it was very torturous, and the short-bearded Taoist priest did not dare to deceive him.
Hearing this, he hurriedly waved his hands in denial, explaining anxiously, "I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare! How could I, a disciple, deceive you? This is truly the continuation talisman drawn by the candidate himself during the entrance examination."
Taoist Liu saw the undisguised fear in the depths of his eyes, and finally confirmed that he was telling the truth, and immediately clenched the talisman in his hand.
Taoist Master Wen Yi and Taoist Master He Lian, who were sitting on the side watching the fun, immediately noticed his emotional ups and downs, put down the teacups in their hands and walked over.
Taoist Master Wen Yi stepped forward and took the explosive talisman from Taoist Master Liu's hand and examined it carefully.
After a quick inspection, he even turned on the headlights, frowned, and held it up for inspection. After studying it for a while, he suddenly said, "This talisman was actually completed by two people? It's unbelievable! The strokes, the joints, and the spiritual energy intensity are completely consistent. It's simply natural. Taoist He Lian, don't you think so?"
Taoist Master He Lian is the one who has the deepest research on talismans among the three.
When Taoist Wen Yi was examining the talisman just now, he had carefully examined every detail of the talisman, and his eyes gradually brightened.
After being questioned by Taoist Master Wen Yi, he finally said, "Although it is recorded in Taoism that there are no two auras in the world that are exactly the same. But now that it is the end of the world, I can't help but make other guesses.
Even though the spiritual energy strength is the same, it can be seen that this person has excellent basic talent. He was able to complete the tail of this talisman so perfectly! "
Taoist Liu and Taoist Master Wen Yi nodded in agreement. Taoist Master He Lian immediately looked at the short-bearded Taoist priest and said in a slightly urgent tone, "Go, bring that disciple here now!"
It's no wonder that Taoist He Lian, who has always been calm, is not calm. It is really too difficult to meet a talented disciple, whether before or after the end of the world.
I remember that when Zhuang Moxing’s master picked him up, he was also surprised and happy!
The short-bearded Taoist priest received the task and ran frantically in the Taoist temple, with sweat on his forehead. He couldn't help but feel scared about the ups and downs of his experience today, but fortunately the result was very good!
However, when he ran back to the examination room sweating profusely and wanted to take Zhuang Moxing to Qingzhai Hall, Taoist Bansheng unexpectedly rushed into the examination room with a large number of armed men.
"Which one is Zhuang Moxing?"
As soon as he rushed into the center of the examination room, he shouted out Zhuang Moxing's name. Upon hearing this, a dark-skinned middle-aged Taoist priest jumped out from among the invigilators and said flatteringly, "Master Bansheng, you've finally arrived. Zhuang Moxing is the candidate dressed in black in examination room 12. He can perfectly continue the Explosion Talisman. His control over spiritual energy must be excellent. He definitely meets your requirements!"
Taoist Bansheng's eyes were sharp. He locked onto Zhuang Moxing's figure and walked over quickly. He slapped the short-bearded Taoist who tried to stop him away and grabbed his wrist, releasing his spiritual energy.
Zhuang Moxing felt that strange spiritual energy and his eyes suddenly darkened for a moment.
But then he saw that this man was followed by many armed men dressed in the same manner as the people inside the National Government Building, and he quietly suppressed the momentum of the pure spiritual energy that was about to destroy the old man's cultivation.
Taoist Bansheng manipulated his spiritual energy to probe the thin stream of spiritual energy flowing through Zhuang Moxing's meridians. A look of joy immediately appeared on his wrinkled face. He said excitedly, "Although the spiritual energy is weak, the reserves are abundant. He is very suitable for the formation. This is him! Once everyone is gathered, let's set off immediately!"
As he said this, he waved his hand and asked the armed men behind him to take Zhuang Mo away. The flattering black-skinned Taoist priest hurriedly stepped forward and approached Taoist Bansheng to ask for credit.
"Master Bansheng, please look at my contributions..."
Taoist Bansheng glanced at him briefly and then tore off a dark green jade pendant from his waist and threw it into his arms.
He left quickly when the black-skinned Taoist priest was frightened and in a panic, and left behind a sentence that made the black-skinned Taoist priest ecstatic.
"Take the jade pendant to the affairs hall to change your apprenticeship to an inner disciple. Once they see the jade pendant, they will cooperate with you."
The dark-skinned Taoist priest was so shocked by these words that he was completely stunned.
The reward he originally wanted was just some crystal cores and silver, and he didn't dare to hope for anything else. He never expected that pie would fall from the sky and he could enter the inner gate!
Watching the figure of Taoist Bansheng disappear into the distance, he ecstatically knelt down in that direction, shouting loudly, "Thank you, Taoist Bansheng! No! Thank you, Master!"
The short-bearded Taoist priest, who had been knocked to the ground vomiting blood by Taoist Bansheng with a palm strike, glared at his back with hatred.
He grabbed the two panicked apprentices beside him and said sternly, "Hurry up and go to Qingzhai Hall to inform Taoist Master Helian!"
At this time, Zhuang Moxing was "forced" by the armed men to walk into the winding corridor. He was not worried at all and also hinted at where these people were taking him.
When he heard that the place name was exactly the Lingquan address mentioned in the document last night, a sharp light flashed in his eyes and the idea of resistance completely disappeared.
These people took him straight into the huge courtyard of Bansheng Taoist Priest, where he saw many Taoist priests in long robes with either excited or confused expressions.
After he joined the Taoist group, those people looked at him with disdain, and no one came forward to talk to him.
Instead, he felt relaxed and happy. He chose a secluded spot to stand in, then threw out two paper cranes from his sleeve, one infused with pure spiritual energy, and the other whispered to his lips.
After completing this set of small movements in a concealed manner, the palms quietly opened.
The two paper cranes carrying different messages immediately flapped their wings flexibly and flew out at a high speed!
