Chapter 83 Night Talk

083 Night Talk

After Xiang Jiannan and his master both lay down on the bed with their clothes on, several noises were heard from the Demon-Suppressing Division compound. A man holding a silver spear jumped into the compound first. Tang Ning signaled Li Jin, who had been waiting inside the gate, to open the door quickly.

The adult is back, and I am one step ahead of him.

"grown ups."

Hearing the footsteps outside the door, Li Jin opened the door and reached out to take the robe that the person took off. He did not go out with Li Si tonight. There was a riot in the city, and someone had to stay in the Demon-Suppressing Division to take charge.

It would definitely not be his turn before, but after Lord Li came, his status also increased accordingly.

The main reason was that the adults were particularly interested in the two Taoist priests and did not allow me to follow them when they set out.

"You don't want to go through the door, but you insist on jumping over the wall."

After entering the room, he stretched his muscles in front of his two subordinates. Seeing that Li Jin's eyes were burning in the dark, Li Si looked at Tang Ning with a stern face:

"Did you see it all?"

"I can't hear you."

Holding the silver spear, Tang Ning immediately pointed at his ear, responding to Li Si's previous words, and then kept stroking the spear, as if polishing it hard:

"That old Taoist priest's strength is unfathomable. I've been watching him for so long that my eyes are almost blind."

"If we fight against him, how many moves will we make?"

He had already secretly compared himself with Gao Yuan in his heart, but he felt that he was not confident enough. Li Si asked about Tang Ning. The light made him panic, and he was thinking about it all the way back.

The information passed on was true; that old Taoist priest was indeed no ordinary person.

"You won't know until you fight."

He seemed a little sleepy while speaking, and didn't want to answer Li Si's question vaguely.

The Lord would probably return to the capital at daybreak. He knew himself well and guessed that it was meaningless for Tang Ning. He immediately carried the silver spear, waved his hand, and walked towards the depths of the compound in a graceful manner.

Ten moves? I probably won’t be able to fall asleep after I go back. The question raised by the adults is like a stone placed in my heart, which hurts and itches.

"You should step down too."

After taking the robe back from Li Jin, Li Si put it on again and seemed to remember something. He walked forward a few steps, then stopped and asked, "What do you think of what happened tonight?"

"The fight between the snake and the crane is an internal matter of the Dao sect."

Seeing that Li Si just nodded lightly, Li Jin followed his meaning and continued:

"That Taoist priest had no ill will towards us, but he did cause a lot of trouble."

The first sentence was to reiterate his position to Li Si, and the second sentence was a guess. During this period of time, he had been investigating Gao Yu'an, and the information he obtained could not even fill a page of white paper.

After being silent for decades, it seemed as if it suddenly erupted overnight. The Chen family incident seemed to be just the beginning, and no one knew how far it would go in the future.

This is also the reason why adults attach great importance to it. We must be on guard at all times in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"oh!"

Li Si understood the meaning of Li Jin's words and was thoughtful after listening to them. He didn't say anything else. The Demon Subduing Division was still humane and it was not a bad thing for subordinates to have their own ideas.

At the critical moment, all you have to do is to be clear about your own position. Maybe it is really the same as he believes, and the old Taoist priest just hasn't been noticed before.

There are tens of thousands of cultivators in the world, and it is impossible for the Demon-Suppressing Division to know about all of them. At least until today, there hasn't been any major disturbance. Even if it happened tonight, how many people would know about it after dawn?

That Taoist method was expected, although it was a bit arrogant.

"Are those ghost messengers here for revenge?"

Lying quietly on the bed side by side with his master, Xiang Jiannan heard his master chattering. Although he didn't know whether it was true or not, he could only listen seriously.

Some things are actually very difficult to tell whether they are true or false. At least with my master, I have only been able to accept them honestly. This old Taoist priest never likes to take responsibility when it comes to his words, so even if he has doubts, there is no way to check.

"Revenge for someone."

With his hands on his chest, Gao Yuan was full of energy and spoke so many words: "They are all officials under the City God. I believe you know that, my disciple."

"City God? Someone from the underworld?"

"Bullshit, Taoists, please stop reading those messed up books. They can easily lead you astray."

Looking sideways at his master in the darkness, Xiang Jiannan just opened his mouth when Gao Yu'an sprayed something at him. The old Taoist priest was a little excited when he spoke, and his saliva splashed on his face after falling from the sky.

Taoism is Taoism, why get so excited? It's a common sense mistake and there is a gap in memory.

The young Taoist priest couldn't even tell this before, so this just happened to broaden his horizons.

Influenced by his memories from his previous life, Xiang Jiannan had always believed that the City God was an organization under the jurisdiction of the underworld. After hearing Gao Yu'an's correction, he didn't feel much.

Please...you...collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠBar (Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\Bar!)

Is there any difference? If the city god is here, how far can the underworld be? I have never asked such questions in detail in such a long time. Today, I just took this opportunity.

"What is the relationship between the underworld and Taoism?"

After carefully searching through his memories, Xiang Jiannan felt a little excited when he asked the question.

There are also many legends circulating in this world, such as the Heaven, the Underworld, the Fairy Island, and a series of other similar places. People's ears are almost callused from hearing them.

"What's the relationship? It depends on what the storyteller thinks."

"Master is telling you something very important. If you don't want to listen, go to sleep downstairs!"

Gao Yuan's tone revealed disdain. He was shocked that his disciple could ask such a question. "I don't know these things. If you want to know, go ask the master. He became an immortal in his time."

"Becoming an immortal! Is this true?"

This sentence touched his excitement, and Xiang Jiannan was unaware of his master's anger.

The story of immortals was also widely circulated. In the Zhou Dynasty, this kind of thing seemed to be more reliable than the story of the underworld, but not many people had seen it.

"I also want to know. Your master said that he filled up the East China Sea after he became an immortal. This should be true."

After answering, he kicked Xiang Jiannan so hard that he almost fell off the bed. Gao Yuan lost the desire to continue the conversation. He thought of the old man with white steam coming out of his head and his determined expression when he jumped off the cliff.

He ascended to heaven and has not been seen since.

"Master, please continue."

Speaking of being suddenly attacked, Xiang Jiannan was not willing to give up after stabilizing his body. Instead of talking about becoming an immortal, he could talk about something else. Who instructed those ghost messengers to avenge others? Does the City God care about this?

There are still many things that the master has not explained clearly, and this old Taoist priest gets angry easily while talking.

"Rest and talk about it another day."

Gao Yuan dodged Xiang Jiannan's approaching face and said something impatiently. His snoring stopped a short while later. When he found that his disciple was still staring at him, he simply sat up:

"Is Chen Jia'erlang still reading his book recently? Please read it for me when you go back."

The words came out of nowhere and it took Xiang Jiannan a long time to react. The old Taoist priest thought that he stood up to kill himself, but it turned out that he was thinking about someone else.

Chen Jingxuan? Hasn't he been studying all the time? Why would a Taoist priest care about the affairs of the cultural circle?

Also Taoist?
