Chapter 18 Acting
018 Acting
"Miss Qiao Yun is actually fine. She only needs to listen to a few scriptures and she will be back to normal."
It was difficult to describe to Lin Zhen what he saw. Xiang Jiannan was actually very unsure when he spoke.
He felt that Magistrate Lin's confidante seemed to be using some kind of magic, but he didn't know how to explain the hazy gas.
It is connected to Qiao Yun's body. It is not afraid of sunlight or people. It is a bit inappropriate to call it a demon.
He had indeed fallen into her trap just now. If Lin Zhen had not appeared in time out of jealousy, who knows what would have happened next.
After a few glances, he felt that his consciousness was out of control and he was confused and did such a frivolous thing. Although he had some thoughts in his mind, he would never do such an extreme thing.
This Qiao Yun is a bit difficult to deal with.
"Scripture? Are you so sure, young Taoist priest?"
Hearing Xiang Jiannan say that he seemed to be going to recite some scriptures, Lin Zhen and Master Guo looked at each other quickly, and then seemed to be confirming with Xiang Jiannan, but the four eyes were actually looking at Gao Yuan.
Is your apprentice really reliable? Considering his previous performance, it is hard for us to trust him again.
Since there is no serious problem, why bother with scriptures? As a master, could you please say something?
"That's great. Our Taoist scriptures are always gentle and will not harm Miss Qiao Yun's body."
Seeing Lin Zhen's hesitation, Gao Yuan immediately took over and said, to be honest, he hadn't read the scriptures for many years, and didn't know how his disciple came up with this move. Could it be that he had gained some insights from studying the scriptures frequently recently, and wanted to take the opportunity to use them in actual combat today.
He just thought about it without asking any more questions, just waiting for Xiang Jiannan to say something next.
I, an old Taoist priest, have used this trick before, but honestly speaking, it's not very effective. If you just talk and don't take action, the other party will not be convinced.
"Please ask the county magistrate and Mr. Guo to leave first, or I'm afraid your eyes will be dirty later."
As his master spoke out in support, Xiang Jiannan's eyes became more determined. In order to prevent any unexpected situations from happening again, he asked Lin Zhen and the other two to leave first.
If you want to deal with Qiao Yun, you can't let Lin Zhen stay at the scene. Who knows if this County Magistrate Lin will suddenly turn into a flower-protecting messenger later.
"this"
Turning his head to look at Qiao Yun and then at Xiang Jiannan and his disciple, Lin Zhen thought about it and decided that a short pain is worse than a long one.
They came here today just for this matter. They wanted to refuse, but they couldn't open their mouths. Since the old Taoist priest also agreed with his disciple's request, the two of them should not stay here.
As long as the two of them can help me find the former Qiao Yun, leaving for a while is not a big deal.
After making the decision, he didn't say much. He turned around and said to Qiao Yun who was still crying: "Wait here. The Taoist priests have something to say to you."
"Qiao Yun, don't stay here."
When Qiao Yun heard Lin Zhen say that he would leave her alone in the backyard, she immediately refused to listen and pulled Lin Zhen's sleeve, refusing to let him leave. This went on for too long and actually aroused Xiang Jiannan's temper.
He strode forward and placed his right hand on Qiao Yun's hand.
Men and women are not allowed to touch each other, and after hearing a scream, Qiao Yun's hand immediately loosened.
He forced me to use a rogue style of play.
Understanding the reason for the anger on Lin Zhen's face, Xiang Jiannan was not afraid of his outburst. After separating the two, he forcibly escorted the county magistrate out of the backyard amidst the crying and wailing, and reminded him to stay as far away as possible and not to think of coming back to peek.
After seeing Lin Zhen and Master Guo leaving in a long distance, he closed the gate and turned back in a rage.
In the yard, Qiao Yun probably wanted to go into the house, but unfortunately her way was blocked by the master.
"Girl, there's dirt on you."
"Your mother is the one with the dirt on her!"
He just felt that the master was being superfluous at this time. As soon as Xiang Jiannan approached, he heard him being scolded harshly. He saw that the old Taoist was a little embarrassed, and his eyes were very innocent when he looked at him: "Disciple, which scripture are you going to use?"
The meaning is very clear, so we should quickly teach this little girl who doesn't know etiquette a lesson.
"Whatever, Master, you should handle this matter. I don't know how to remember any scriptures."
Thinking carefully in his mind, Xiang Jiannan found that he seemed to have almost forgotten the scriptures. He mentioned using the scriptures before just to dispel Lin Zhen's concerns, and the reason why he let them leave was because he was worried that he would be exposed.
I have indeed reviewed a lot of scriptures in the past few days, but I forgot most of them in the blink of an eye. It is unrealistic to expect him to recite a passage professionally at this time.
"I, the teacher, don't know how to do that either!"
When Gao Yuan heard Xiang Jiannan ask him to do the task of reciting scriptures, his eyes immediately widened.
Old Taoist, I just support your idea, but I never said I want to participate. I haven't touched the scriptures for so many years, and my mind is already empty.
"You've been in Ping An Temple for so many years, and you can't even remember a single scripture?"
Xiang Jiannan had never expected this kind of answer from his master, and he found it unbelievable.
Please...you...collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠBar (Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\Bar!)
An old Taoist priest actually has no stock in his stomach. If he tells this story, isn't he afraid of being laughed at? How can he be a Taoist priest if he doesn't have a solid foundation in basic business?
"Haven't you also lived in Ping An Temple for more than 20 years? Aren't you the same as my master?"
At this moment, he had no time to care about Qiao Yun. Gao Yuan seemed to be thinking about arguing with Xiang Jiannan.
It’s all his fault that the master of Ping’an Temple dotes on his disciple too much. Fortunately, County Magistrate Lin and the others are not here.
Why are you bragging if you don't know the scriptures? It's my fault that I'm always backing you up.
"You are a Taoist priest!"
"You're not?"
"The two Taoist priests are really funny."
Just as Xiang Jiannan and his master were arguing over the scriptures, Qiao Yun, who had been crying non-stop, suddenly spoke in the middle of the yard. When she turned around and looked at the two of them, her eyes were full of sarcasm:
"I wonder what County Magistrate Lin would think if he knew what you did."
"That's what the girl said."
Feeling embarrassed by Qiao Yun's words, Gao Yuan's face suddenly turned red, his behavior became awkward, and his expression became uneasy. The shyness revealed by his arrogance actually made Qiao Yun come closer to him.
She had charming eyes and a sweet breath. She put a hand on Gao Yu'an's shoulder and returned to the same state she had when they first met: "You, as a disciple, really don't know how to respect your teacher. The old Taoist must be feeling very bitter."
“That’s true.”
As if he was suddenly enlightened, Gao Yuan's eyes changed when he looked at Xiang Jiannan. As Qiao Yun got closer to him, his tone became heavier: "Evil disciple, regret your decision."
"So what does the Taoist want to do?"
"Of course, severe punishment!"
He suddenly took out a peace amulet from his sleeve and put it on Qiao Yun's forehead. When he walked away, he almost made Qiao Yun, who was behaving ambiguous with him, fall down on the spot. At the same time, as his master left, Xiang Jiannan hurriedly gestured in the air with his fingers.
Several green airs then appeared in front of his chest and in just a moment they touched the amulet on Qiao Yun's head.
An explosion suddenly sounded.
As the smoke cleared and we looked back into the courtyard, we saw that Qiao Yun, who had been attacked earlier, had turned into a piece of skin.
