The county magistrate invited many famous doctors to look at the problem, but none of them could solve the problem.

Therefore, the county magistrate had to recruit strange people to help solve the problem.

However, although many practitioners can get rid of this method, they are not willing to take action because they can see that taking action to rectify this young man's humane conduct is not shallow.

So I don’t want to be contaminated by this cause and effect.

After all, saving the county magistrate only consumes some mana.

But it might anger the practitioner who deployed this method.

This will cause big trouble.

Ordinary practitioners in this world avoid this kind of thing whenever they can.

Therefore, until Xu Sheng and others passed through the local county town, the county magistrate was still posting notices looking for strange people to save his son.

Of course Xu Sheng and others posted the notice.

After all, the ascetic monk has left.

Now Xu Sheng and others must ask the county magistrate for a portrait and so on in order to find traces of the ascetic monk.

Soon, Xu Sheng and the other three, who had disguised their appearance, were taken to the county magistrate's house by the servants of the county magistrate's house.

However, I didn't expect to find that there was also an old Taoist priest with immortal style and several Taoist boys who came with him.

He seems to have the aura of a virtuous person.

Xu Sheng originally had no hostility. After all, if he could solve it, then let him solve it.

Anyway, Xu Sheng just came to ask about the ascetic's portrait and other information.

But Xu Sheng soon became disappointed.

Because this old Taoist is just a fake Taoist who cheats people with food and drink.

It's just using some magic-like means to deceive people.

They also made up some weird atonement process that the county magistrate had to go through to recover because he had blasphemed against Guanyin.

Anyway, it will take several years to get better.

The county magistrate and his family were deceived.

Originally, Xu Sheng didn't want to expose the old Taoist priest, after all, he was just making ends meet.

Although Xu Sheng felt a little unhappy seeing how his reputation as a Taoist priest had been ruined.

But after Xu Sheng got to know him, he found that the county magistrate was not a bad person.

On the contrary, he is usually kind-hearted, philanthropic, diligent in studying, and ambitious.

He has also achieved some success in his studies. He was awarded Jinshi not long ago. He was originally planning to serve as an official and benefit the people.

It was just that the county magistrate thought he was very talented, arrogant, and did not believe in gods and Buddhas, so he spoke rudely to the Buddha statue of Guanyin that day.

For such a young man to become mute for many years, he will probably be completely disabled.

After all, he can no longer take office as an official.

So after thinking about it, Xu Sheng spoke up and said that he could solve it himself.

Of course, I didn’t directly say that the old Taoist priest was a liar.

After all, he may be retaliated by the county magistrate and may die.

It's just that he can't solve it because he doesn't have enough moral principles.

"What?"

Seeing that Xu Sheng and the little Taoist nun were so young, the old Taoist couldn't help but sneered: "You said, old Taoist, that my cultivation is not as good as yours? Huang Maoer, where did you learn from?"

Although Zhi Niang looks relatively mature, she is wearing casual clothes and not a monastic robe.

Since we had to solve such a strange thing, we naturally subconsciously thought that Xu Sheng and the little Taoist nun in Taoist robes should solve it.

The old Taoist priest's eyes were not kind when he spoke, and the implication was: Which path do you belong to?!

He thought Xu Sheng was a charlatan like him and now wanted to steal his job.

Although people like him have worn Taoist robes for many years, they have never seen a Taoist priest with magic power, or if they have seen one, they don't know that others have magic power.

Just like many ordinary Taoist priests in Xu Sheng's Yunhu Temple, they actually had no idea that Xu Sheng was a true Taoist priest with magical powers.

At this time, including the county magistrate, the housekeeper, and other people in the mansion were dubious.

"Speak!"

Of course, Xu Sheng was too lazy to talk nonsense with this fake Taoist priest at this time, and he didn't want to explain too much to others. He just stepped forward and raised his hand to slap the county magistrate.

Snap!

A firm slap made the county magistrate's face turn red.

"You're such a bastard..."

The county magistrate was stunned.

Suddenly I received a hard slap.

Of course, he was soon surprised to find that he could speak again.

He couldn't help but look at Xu Sheng with wide eyes and shock.

"thump!"

Then he immediately knelt down and said, "Thank you, Taoist Priest, for saving me!"

Including the county magistrate, the housekeeper, and everyone else in the county magistrate's office were directly shocked.

The old Taoist and his boy next to him were also dumbfounded.

"Remember what you said."

Xu Sheng ignored the others and just said to the county magistrate: "When you serve as an official in the future, you must not forget your original intention and serve the people wholeheartedly."

Afterwards, the old Taoist and others naturally laughed, and quickly said that they were not good enough and quit.

"What does that ascetic look like?"

Xu Sheng ignored the fake Taoist priest and directly asked the county magistrate: "What are his characteristics? Have you checked what identity he used when he entered the city..."

Not long after.

Xu Sheng left the county magistrate's office with the ascetic's portrait and various information.

"Immortal Master!"

Unexpectedly, not long after he came out, the old Taoist and several boys from before rushed over and knelt down and said: "Please accept me as your disciple!"

"..."

Xu Sheng was speechless.

Then he could only say frankly: "You and others have no spiritual roots and cannot practice."

Then he turned and left.

The old man and the boys were left looking at each other dejectedly.

Xu Sheng had already spread the skill of sketching hundreds of years ago, so what we have now is a lifelike portrait of an ascetic monk.

Another month later.

Xu Sheng and others relied on the portrait and this information to find traces of this ascetic who seemed to be about forty years old.

He has a lean build and dark complexion. He is wearing a linen monk's robe and a pair of hole-in-the-wall straw sandals.

Holding a broken bowl in his hand, he relied on alms everywhere to eat, and slept on the roadside or in some ruined temples.

This kind of ascetic takes the path of deliberately torturing his body in order to temper his spirit.

In the past, Xu Sheng had seen some such ascetics during his travels around the world, but at the time he couldn't tell whether they were deceived by fake Guanyin masters.

Of course, Xu Sheng was still very cautious at this time, and he did not take action directly. After all, this might be a bait deliberately released by the fake Guanyin Master.

The fake Guanyin Master has been intercepted several times before.

It is possible for her to fight back.

So Xu Sheng was very cautious.

He followed this ascetic for three months relying on the Great Formless Technique.

Then it went out to sea.

Xu Sheng and others continued to follow him at sea for half a year.

It was found that there seemed to be no trace of the fake Guanyin Master around him.

On this day after the ascetic landed on an unnamed island.

Xu Sheng finally decided to take action!
To be continued...
