The ladies all snorted dissatisfied, including Leng Ling'er in Ding Fan's body, and they all walked out together.
However, I saw Protector Kongchen quickly walking around behind the statue of Master Xian Wu, pushing hard, and the statue returned to its place silently. I thought too much, but it was actually that simple.
Protector Kongchen led the way, and after walking a short distance, he turned onto a path going up the mountain. There was an iron gate blocking the way, and there was a stop sign for tourists next to it.
After taking out the key and opening the chain lock on the door, Protector Kongchen was polite and led everyone to continue climbing up the mountain.
Only a hundred meters away, I saw a small courtyard in the jungle. Because the surrounding trees were very tall and dense, it was difficult to find any buildings here when looking up from below.
In the small courtyard, stood an old Taoist with half-white beard and hair. He was indifferent and had a fairy-like Taoist spirit. He was dressed in a white Taoist robe, so clean that not a speck of dust could be seen. The light Bagua pattern on it added a bit of mystery.
It was the famous Taoist Priest Donglin. To Ding Fan's surprise, he was now a Golden Elixir monk and someone he couldn't afford to mess with.
"Today there are auspicious clouds and purple energy coming from the east. The old Taoist will know that a distinguished guest is coming and welcomes the young and promising leader Ding." Taoist priest Dong Lin clasped his fists slightly.
This is so hypocritical, the auspicious clouds have been floating in the Taoist temple for a long time!
Ding Fan didn't take it too seriously and said modestly: "The Taoist Master has given me the award, but I feel ashamed to deserve it!"
"Great Protector Yunmei, I haven't seen you for a long time, but your face is still as beautiful as before."
Taoist priest Donglin greeted Yunmei politely again. Yunmei bowed and said, "I'm disturbing the Taoist priest!"
"Where, where, welcome!"
Taoist priest Dong Lin waved his hand and looked at the others with a smile.
"Taoist Priest, this is Chi Li!" Ding Fan introduced.
"Chi Li, a disciple of the Huanyue Sect, has met the Taoist priest!" Chi Li clasped her fists, fearing that she would be looked down upon, so she took the initiative to report to her family.
"She is indeed a strange woman. She came from the wilderness and went to riches and wealth. She was able to stay in solitude and see the clouds opening and the moon shining brightly." Taoist priest Dong Lin pointed out.
Chi Li looked confused and didn't understand at all. Was it meant for herself?
Ding Fan knew the deep meaning, but it was difficult to explain it here.
"Hello, Taoist Priest, I am Wu Yahuan from Jingyang." Wu Yahuan also quickly reported his name.
"well!"
Taoist priest Dong Lin smiled faintly and said nothing further. Wu Yahuan had a black line on his head and was still waiting for the Taoist to comment!
"The ring on Miss Wu's hand is very different. I would like to ask, who gave it to me?" Taoist Master Donglin asked, already seeing that it was an extremely rare star power stone.
…
Wu Yahuan glanced at Ding Fan hesitantly, but he admitted generously, "Taoist Master, I gave it to you."
"It turns out that it is a token of love. It is rare and valuable. Otherwise, even the Taoist priests would be willing to exchange this small courtyard for it." Taoist Master Dong Lin was half joking, half serious.
Wu Yahuan smiled happily, especially satisfied with the term "a token of love". At the same time, he truly realized that the value of this small stone was immeasurable.
"Master Ding, please come into the room and have a chat." Taoist priest Dong Lin invited.
"Taoist Master please!"
Chi Li followed closely, but Wu Yahuan grabbed her and rolled her eyes, "You don't have any eyesight at all. It's obvious that we are not included in the invitation."
"Hey, playing charades everywhere is a waste of your brain, can't you live a simpler life?" Chi Li complained.
"Fellow Taoists, please come with me."
Protector Kongchen quickly took the three ladies to the guest room to rest. At the same time, he arranged Taoist boys to serve the best fragrant tea and snacks and entertain the distinguished guests attentively.
As he walked, Ding Fan said: "My master asked me to convey my greetings to the Taoist Master."
"Haha, thank you very much. Others don't know, but I know that although the old Taoist Shenxuan is a little poor, his family background is extraordinary and he is unique in today's world of cultivation." Taoist Master Dong Lin said.
"Taoist Priest is also unique. Along the way, everything he sees is prosperous." Ding Fan said.
"Old Taoists are different from others. They make their money in the open. But I have always believed that hard work may not be the way to escape. Only by seeing through the world of mortals can you wake up."
"Goodbye, Taoist priest!"
While talking, the two came to Taoist Priest Dong Lin's room. It was lightly fragrant, clean and simple, with only a tea table, a few wooden chairs, and a few ancient paintings on the walls.
The two sat opposite each other. Taoist Master Dong Lin picked up the purple sand teapot, poured a cup of tea for Ding Fan, and then said: "Master Ding, let another distinguished guest come out to meet you!"
"Why did the Taoist Master say this?" Ding Fan asked deliberately.
"Haha, you don't have to hide it from me. You can kill people without being seen. How can you be an ordinary person?" Taoist priest Donglin said with a smile.
On the cliff of the ropeway, a man dressed as a Taoist priest suddenly fell off the cliff and died. Of course, Taoist Master Dong Lin had already known about such a major accident.
Taoist priest Dong Lin sensitively judged that this person jumped off the cliff because his mind was disturbed.
"Taoist priest, it's not easy to meet you. I almost died on the cable car." Ding Fan complained.
"This person is just wearing a Taoist robe. As for why he intended to cause harm on the way, I don't know. Let's wait for the official to verify his identity!" Taoist Master Donglin said this as expected.
The room temperature dropped suddenly, and a clear figure suddenly appeared in the house, it was Leng Ling'er.
ah!
Taoist Master Dong Lin could no longer remain calm, with a look of astonishment on his face. He stood up in a hurry, causing the tea tray to clink. He cupped his fists and bowed deeply, "I don't know that this is Master Leng. I'm disrespectful and disrespectful!"
"How dare you accept the Taoist priest's gift? I am evil!" Leng Ling'er holds a grudge.
"This... is all a poor Taoist's lax teaching and nonsense! Please don't mind Master Leng. He is a cold-faced Rakshasa and even respects beauties. Who dares not to show respect." Taoist Master Donglin smiled apologetically.
At this time, Taoist Master Dong Lin finally understood why Ding Fan could take over the leadership of Huanyue Sect. It turned out that the legendary Leng Ling'er had already fallen, but he had reached a contract with Ding Fan.
And legends are legends. Leng Ling'er, who turned into a spirit ghost, could actually reach the fourth level so quickly. It is incredible and extraordinary.
"Excuse me, Taoist Priest. Let's talk. I'll avoid it first."
Leng Ling'er disappeared in the blink of an eye and returned to Ding Fan's body. Taoist Master Dong Lin looked at Ding Fan again. Seeing that he was calm and composed, he secretly said he was surprised.
There is no doubt that it was Leng Ling'er who killed the person on the top of the cliff, but Taoist Master Dong Lin would not tell anyone about this matter no matter what. It would be of no benefit to him, and no one would believe him.
After taking a sip of tea, Ding Fan asked: "Taoist Priest, how did you see the situation in the Hall of Nothingness?"
"mobile application!"
Taoist Master Dong Lin took out his mobile phone to compare, and then explained: "The Hall of Nothingness is of great importance. No matter where the Taoist is, he will not relax his protection there."
"Taoist Priest, did you sell the treasure map to Jian Huaneng on purpose so that he would hand it over to me?" Ding Fan asked directly.
"I accidentally learned that you have some friendship with him, and if you get the treasure map, because of your greed for money, you will definitely come to find you. There are only a handful of people in the world who are born with spiritual eyes, and the old Taoist has the right to give it a try."
What was unintentional was clearly intentional. Ding Fan secretly despised the fact that although Taoist Priest Donglin lived in the mountains, he had always been concerned about world affairs through the Internet.
"Selling it to him for 100,000 yuan is too expensive, isn't it?" Ding Fan asked.
