"If nothing happens, the temple master will have achieved great success. If there are only you and me, and a group of Taoist boys in the temple, how should we explain to the temple master?"
When the Taoist priest spoke, the Taoist priest who wanted to devour Xu Dao paused and muttered:
"That's all! Look at how thin the Taoist disciple is and how little meat he has! There are quite a few Taoist disciples who got the fruit this time, enough for the three of us to have a full meal."
Hearing this, Xu Dao's tense mind couldn't help but relax. He steeled himself, glanced over, and found that the one who wanted to eat him was the fat Taoist priest, and the one who stopped him was the thin Taoist priest.
Another Taoist priest Liu, who was neither fat nor thin, also said in a low voice at this time: "Exactly. Now the eleven Taoist disciples can already fill their stomachs, so we should save some food."
Liu Daoshi suddenly turned his head, his gaze penetrated the paper moon and fell on Xu Dao. Xu Dao quickly averted his gaze and pretended to be completely ignorant.
Liu Daoshi said again: "In this middle period, Taoist disciples are not shallow in their spiritual practice, and they are about to enter the later stage of Qi refining. Even if they want to eat, it is too wasteful to eat them now. It is better to keep them for a while. If they can eat them by then, the taste will be the same."
Better!”
"Good!" When the fat Taoist priest heard this, he suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the paper moon.
Xu Dao glanced at it and was shocked again, because the fat Taoist reached out to grab him again!
In an instant, thousands of thoughts swirled in Xu Dao's mind, and he suddenly thought whether the three Taoist priests had seen through his disguise early on and were deliberately teasing him.
Xu Dao suddenly wanted to sacrifice the evil spirit sword box in his hand, break through the siege of the Taoist priests, and then escape. Fortunately, his reason allowed him to suppress the impulse in his heart, and just mobilized all his magic power to prepare.
When the Taoist priest's fat hand was about to fall on his body, and Xu Dao couldn't hold it back any longer, he keenly discovered that the target the Taoist priest was aiming at was not his body, but the Immortality Fruit held in his hand.
Whoosh!
The Immortality Fruit in Xu Dao's hand fell out of his hand, jumped into the hands of the fat Taoist priest, and was then captured into the "Moon Palace".
The Taoist disciples around him were stunned for a moment when they saw the Immortal Fruit in Xu Dao's hand being swept away by a wisp of white smoke. There was a sense of gloating in their eyes.
When the later Taoist disciple who criticized Xu Dao saw what he realized, he was immediately overjoyed. His body was trembling with excitement, and he kept shouting: "Taoist Master Mingjian! Taoist Master is impartial!"
At the same time, there was also surprise in Xu Dao's eyes. His body and mind relaxed, and his back was dripping with sweat.
Xu Dao thought in his heart: "You took away my Immortality Fruit? But you didn't take me to the Round Table? It seems that what these three Taoist priests just said is true!"
He thought about the conversation between the three Taoist priests just now: "Eleven immortal fruits, complete the number, the master of the White Bone Temple, Taoist skills..."
Xu Dao vaguely realized that there was news hidden in the Taoist priests' words. But because there was too little information, he couldn't figure out anything.
But no matter what, what is certain is that the three Taoist priests will not have any plans for him for the time being.
The Fruit of Immortality was taken away by the Taoist priest. Xu Dao felt happy in his heart and felt that he had escaped disaster. But he still had a look of shock and despair on his face.
In the eyes of outsiders, he has a guilty conscience and is timid? He doesn't even dare to argue with the Taoist priests.
It is said that before this, after Xu Dao captured Fang Guanhai's Immortal Fruit in the Black Mountain, he did not give it to others because he had no time to refine it and was not prepared to use the Fruit to build a foundation.
The idea is to exchange some benefits from the Taoist priests after looking back, and at the same time avoid possible guilt.
According to the current attitude of the Taoist priests towards the Taoist disciples in Guanzhong, there will probably be no guilt, but Xu Dao does not expect the Taoist priests to reward him.
He just hoped that the three Taoist priests would collect the Immortality Fruit, quickly capture the later Taoist disciples, die on his behalf, and then completely ignore him.
It's just that the three Taoist priests clearly noticed Xu Dao, and it was impossible to completely ignore them.
After the fat Taoist priest took away the Immortality Fruit, he let out a voice and said to the Taoist disciples seriously:
"The fruit-bearing boy below has difficulty refining the immortal fruit because of your insufficient cultivation. I am taking your fruit for the use of my fellow disciples. Please don't be stingy and don't create any gaps!"
The fat Taoist priest was quite greedy. He just said a few words and then reached out again to take the later Taoist disciple in his hand, preparing to capture him and take him to the "Moon Palace" for a full meal.
As soon as the later Taoist disciple was caught and realized that he was about to fly into the "Moon Palace", his face was ecstatic and he kept shouting: "Thank you, Taoist Master! Thank you Sandu!"
"Disciples are determined to practice well and live up to the cultivation of the Taoist priests."
Seeing this scene, Xu Dao also bowed down and bowed, and replied in fear: "Here."
Seeing his appearance, other Taoist disciples around him felt not only gloating about his misfortune, but also a hint of contempt in their hearts.
Many people thought in their hearts: "I thought this guy was a powerful character, but I didn't expect that he was just a bully and afraid of the strong. He even dared not say a few words when treasures such as the Immortal Fruit were taken away."
Perhaps because of the "Emperor's Liquid" drink, all the Taoist disciples were half crazy and half intoxicated, and the emotions in their hearts were amplified. Many people burst out laughing, but no one directly said contemptuous words.
But when You Bing saw Xu Dao's behavior, she was shocked and confused, her face turned red, as if she was much more awake and thinking about something seriously.
When Xu Dao heard the laughter around him, he didn't take the opinions of the people around him to heart. He just continued to pretend to be drunk and frightened to express his respect for the Taoist priests.
Whoosh! In the later period, the Taoist disciples got their wish and ascended to the Moon Palace. Just as the Taoist disciples looked up at the "Moon Palace" again with envy in their eyes, another Taoist priest spoke from the "Moon Palace".
It was the thin Taoist priest who had just stopped the fat Taoist from trying to devour Xu Dao. At this time, he threw a chopstick from the Moon Palace and said:
"You have accomplished meritorious deeds and have made great contributions to the practice of contemplation. Now that you have completed your meritorious deeds and are about to reach the final stage of Qi refining, I will give you the magic "Three Yin White Bone Cross" as a reward."
"This technique is profound, I hope you practice it diligently."
After saying these words, Xu Dao realized that the other party wanted to give him a benefit, so he subconsciously reached out to catch the thrown chopsticks in his hand, kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Taoist Master!"
After thanking him, Xu Dao lowered his head and his eyelids suddenly jumped.
I saw that the chopsticks dropped by the Taoist priest were still stained with red and white things, and there was a fishy smell.
Of course, this was invisible to the eyes of other Taoist disciples. When everyone saw the scene, they were envious, and they all started talking:
"What kind of magic is "Sanyin White Bone Cross"? Why have I never heard of it in Guanzhong..."
In the papery moon, the three Taoist priests were also talking to each other.
The fat Taoist priest saw the thin Taoist priest's behavior and said in surprise: "Hey, my original Taoist friend protected this person and taught him the White Bone Cross technique, but he has fallen in love with this person and wants to be accepted as his disciple?"
Unexpectedly, the thin Taoist priest heard this and smiled and said, "Did Taoist fellow Taoist forget that there is another way to use this spell?"
After saying these words, the fat Taoist chewed for a long time, patted his head, and shouted: "Forgetful! My fellow Taoist is still very cunning..."
Xu Dao thanked him. He eavesdropped on the conversation of the three Taoist priests and felt that something was wrong. However, he couldn't figure out anything for the moment, so he secretly remembered everything the other party said.
A dispute on the field was just a minor episode for the Taoist priests. The three of them chatted for a few words, then they all withdrew their gazes from underneath and placed them on the dinner plates in front of them.
For a moment, click, click, click! The rustling sound of "discussing the Tao" sounded all around again.
Only separated by a piece of paper, the three Taoist priests inside had a ferocious figure, acted strangely, and kept making swallowing sounds from their mouths.
But the Taoist disciples below were ignorant and kept bowing to the three of them, thinking they were gods or immortal masters.
Around the "Tao Discussion Conference", five masters including Linghu, Gongyang, and Lu Daoshi were also shaking their huge heads, saliva dripping from their mouths, and their scarlet eyes were full of covetousness.
Xu Dao was mixed in among them, and he could only feel lucky that he had escaped. He pinched the bloody chopsticks in his hands and praised them wisely.
