Renowned Taoist?
Can it tell at a glance what kind of reputation we desire? And help us achieve it?
Is there such a good thing?
I was a little bit unconvinced, and Su Xiaoniu and Xuanxuan were even less convinced. Then I heard Xuanxuan pointing at her slender hand and asking, "You stinky old Taoist priest, you didn't even see who we are and just came up to fool us. Brother Xu Fei and sister-in-law don't even need to do anything, I can destroy him! Let him talk nonsense!"
As Xuanxuan was about to take action, the old man, who claimed to be the renowned Daoist Lord, continued with a smile, "Wait a minute, little girl, let me calculate... Well, all you want now is to join the Ghost Alliance, dedicate yourself to cultivation, surpass the 'Yin Yang Fairy', and become the second legendary woman. This is the fame you've been craving. Am I right?"
Xuanxuan was about to take action when she suddenly stopped and said in horror: "You...how did you know?"
The renowned Daoist Lord smiled and said, "Didn't I just say that I can see the fame and prestige you desire, and I can help you achieve it."
Xuanxuan hesitated.
I frowned and said, "Are you really that powerful, old man? Look at me, what kind of reputation do I want? I guess you can't guess it."
The renowned Daoist Lord narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at me for a long moment before suddenly smiling. "This Daoist fellow doesn't place much stock in reputation; he can be described as 'desireless.' However, this 'desireless.'" only applies to reputation. Regarding other things, such as wealth, sex, and love, he's incredibly greedy. Just to take the word 'wealth,' take the jewelry box you just encountered. Those two girls didn't touch a single bit of it, yet you even managed to keep it for yourself before leaving. This clearly shows your greed."
I stared at him. This old man was so accurate!
Su Xiaoniu came up to me and asked me, "Fei Fei, are you really hiding jewelry?"
I was extremely embarrassed and quickly took out some gold, silver and jewelry that I had hidden from my backpack. When Su Xiaoniu saw this, she almost beat me to death.
"As for lust, I think I don't need to say much, right? Just now at the hot spring, you already had lustful thoughts." The renowned Taoist said with a smile.
"I didn't do it voluntarily!" I explained quickly.
However, the renowned Taoist Master remained calm and said, "If you have no evil thoughts in your heart, what can a foxy charm do to you?"
"What this old man said makes so much sense!" Su Xiaoniu actually helped an outsider!
"Then there's love..." Just as Xianyu Daojun was about to continue, I quickly stopped him: "Alright, alright, you win. Stop talking."
Xianyu Daojun smiled and shut up. Then he looked at Su Xiaoniu. Just as he was about to say something, Su Xiaoniu interrupted him: "I believe it."
I didn’t expect Su Xiaonu to believe it so much!
The renowned Daoist Lord smiled and said, "In this way, I can achieve the fame you desire. If you wish, I can send you out immediately. Once you are out there, the world will change because of you."
Su Xiaoniu and I didn't feel anything, but Xuanxuan seemed moved: "Can you... really help me achieve this?"
Xianyu Daojun nodded and smiled: "Yes, little girl, do you need it?"
Xuanxuan nodded, and Xianyu Daojun stroked his beard and smiled: "Okay, okay, I'll take you out now."
I quickly grabbed her and said, "Xuanxuan! Although he can clearly see what we want, you must not trust him to achieve the fame you desire. This is the Dumen. Before, it was jewelry and beautiful women, and now it's fame. Money, sex, fame... This may be a kind of "greed" in the hearts of the Five Poisons. I always feel that this is very strange. You must not be deceived!"
Xuanxuan's body trembled suddenly, and she came to her senses and said, "Brother Xu Fei..."
I gave him a firm look.
Xuanxuan took a deep breath and immediately said to the renowned Taoist, "Stinky old man, please don't try to confuse me. I will fight for the reputation I want with my own strength. I don't need your help!"
I give a thumbs up to Xuanxuan, well done!
"I will not let you down if I fulfill my original intention. You have passed the test." The renowned Taoist laughed loudly a few times, then turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the darkness.
We both breathed a sigh of relief.
Money, sex and fame, these three kinds of greed have already appeared. I don’t know what will appear next. I no longer have the mood to play as before and have become more cautious.
After walking a little further, a faint fragrance suddenly wafted through the darkness, instantly whetting my appetite. I was fine, but Xuanxuan and Su Xiaoniu were practically drooling. You can imagine how powerful this aroma was for them.
"Sister-in-law, it's over there!" Xuanxuan pulled Su Xiaoniu and ran towards the darkness ahead.
I looked around and saw a snack stand looming in the darkness. It was filled with all kinds of delicious food, including meat skewers, chicken legs, duck necks, sausages, some cakes, fruits, cold drinks, etc. What made Su Xiaoniu most happy was that they even had Jiaxing rice dumplings and milk ready.
I walked up to him with great curiosity, and kept looking at the stall owner. He was a middle-aged man wearing very simple home clothes, a blue striped scarf in front of him, and sandals. He had messy hair. At first glance, he looked ordinary, but I felt that something seemed to be wrong!
Xuanxuan had already ordered a lot of delicious meat skewers, chicken legs and pastries. Su Xiaoniu ordered rice dumplings and milk and sat down at the table and chairs nearby.
I sat across from them and said helplessly, "You two are such foodies!"
Su Xiaoniu pouted and said, "What? Do you have any objections?"
Xuanxuan also imitated Su Xiaoniu's tone and said in a condescending manner: "Yes, Brother Xu Fei, you have an opinion!"
I raised my hands in surrender. "You win. But do you really want to eat it? Have you forgotten that we are in Dumen now? Many of the things here are fake. Besides, this might also be a form of greed."
