Chapter 571 You, a Taoist Priest, Steal the Monk's Job



Most of the other people's tents are not as big and new as the military tents over there, but they have their own private space and they don't need to squeeze with others.

But when she entered the camp, the soldiers told her not to take up too much space, so she was now considering whether to take out the folding house.

But when she reached the corner of the camp, she was stunned because there was a folding house in the corner.

And she was very familiar with it, because it was the one she had given to Hu Ling. There were two children about eight or nine years old playing in the open space in front of the house.

It is certain that Taoist Master Hu has not escaped.

He Xiaobei walked over with a look of surprise on his face until he stood in front of the two children, a boy and a girl. The little boy had an oriental face, while the girl had light brown pupils and shiny golden hair.

It was obvious that they were well taken care of by Hu Ling. Not only did they eat well, but they were also very clean.

He took out a handful of fruit candies and handed them to them:

"Tell me where your keeper is, and these two candies will be yours."

He Xiaobei was full of confidence when he spoke. Sugar is not very expensive, but fruit candy is a rare commodity.

As a result, the two children looked at her with vigilance, and the little boy took a step forward to stand in front of the girl:

"Don't be afraid, this person is probably an enemy of Taoist Hu. No one here dares to steal children, let alone fight. Just tell her. That's a lot of candy. It's hard to meet such a stupid person after this village."

The girl nodded in agreement, and then they both looked at He Xiaobei:

"Give us the candy first."

The corners of He Xiaobei's mouth twitched. This seemed to be the person brought by Hu Ling and Baxiong, so he simply stuffed the candy into the arms of the two children.

"Go ahead."

The child who took the candy lost all thoughts and started to speak rudely:

"Captain Hu is in the camp. The camp isn't very big. You can find him by walking around."

He Xiaobei took a deep breath and suppressed his irritable emotions:

"Need you to tell me? I walked around the camp and didn't see her, so I came to ask you!"

The little girl tilted her head, looked at He Xiaobei and giggled a few times:

"If you go around in a circle and don't find anything, just turn around and go around in a different order."

He Xiaobei looked at the little girl. She was quite smart. Didn’t she know to take another walk around? She ran over excitedly when she saw the folding house.

"Are you trying to be clever with me? How would I have known she was in the camp if I hadn't asked you? I originally asked you to save time, but you didn't seem to provide me with an effective way to find her, so I'm giving the candy back."

He Xiaobei looked at the two children with a stern face. She wanted to scare the two little guys.

As a result, the two children were not afraid at all. The boy looked at her and said confidently:

"This is a deal. Once a deal is made, there's no going back on it. What's in our hands is ours. If you try to take it back by force, that's robbery. There's a military camp here, and robbery and fighting are prohibited. Are you going to break the rules?"

He Xiaobei sneered:

"You are right, but can you stay here forever? If you provoke someone, what will you do when you leave the camp?"

The two children looked at each other, and finally returned the candy.

He Xiaobei glanced at the two of them a few times, and finally left a few candies for them. Then he turned around and left without saying another word.

The girl seemed a little anxious and shouted behind her:

"We've returned the candy to you. Please don't cause trouble for Taoist Master Hu, okay?"

He Xiaobei still ignored them, but his anger had subsided a little.

His character is still uncertain, but he is still thinking about Hu Ling and the Eight Evils.

As a result, before I walked far, I saw Hu Ling from afar with a bun on her head and a whisk in her hand.

Although the woman's face was a little weathered by time and life, she was still radiant, and her eyes were looking at the man in front of her with sparkling eyes.

Baxiong was standing beside her, holding a large cloth bag in one hand and a large bowl with a corner missing in the other.

There were two little boys following the two of them. They looked younger than the one in front of the folding house, probably about seven or eight years old.

But these two look dirty and their clothes are patched.

He Xiaobei hurried over, but just as he walked in, he saw Hu Ling holding a whisk and knocking the man on the head, saying:

"I'm just asking for alms, why are you talking so much nonsense? Don't be so selfish. I just saw you exchanging supplies."

He Xiaobei paused. She was not surprised by Hu Ling's forced begging behavior, but the last sentence was a bit scary!

One shouldn't be too selfish? Isn't this a classic quote from the Virgin White Lotus? For a moment, she didn't want to go back.

The man rubbed his head, took a step back in horror, and pointed at Hu Ling with his other hand:

"Don't go too far, even if you're a psychopath, you'll still be arrested if you go too far. Besides, you're a Taoist priest, how can you steal a monk's job?"
