Chapter 29 Unreachable

Early in the morning, Wang Fu woke up refreshed and refreshed. The so-called fasting was really effective.

Fasting does not mean not eating or drinking at all, but reducing consumption to a minimum.

For example, it is like the power-saving mode of a smartphone. By closing all other apps and leaving only the most basic functions of making calls and sending text messages, the standby time can be increased.

In the past, three meals a day can now be reduced to one meal every three days, which can be consumed with each other.

Wang Fu was at ease here, but the Wu family didn't understand it at all.

For four or five days in a row, Wang Fu did not touch the food bought by the deaf-mute old man and only drank water.

The methods used by Mrs. Wu all failed in the end. After all, the food was eaten by the deaf-mute old man. If it were launched rashly, it would definitely not be Wang Fu himself who would die, and it would also arouse his vigilance.

The business of the Five Emperors Temple is getting better and better day by day.

The owner of the warehouse and the accounting clerk have already escorted the goods and went to other places with the caravan. They have not come back for the time being, so there is no way to verify whether it is effective.

As a coolie that day, the mother-in-law gave birth to a big fat boy that night, and she was so happy that she had fun all day long. She gave him a basket of red eggs and fifty copper coins wrapped in red paper.

Gradually, the news that Wang Fu's fortune telling was effective and accurate spread to the town.

More and more people came to verify, and the results further proved that Wang Fu was really capable, which can be said to be "straightforward".

As for Wang Fu, in addition to gaining money, he also gained a lot of experience.

After all, these simple townspeople didn't know that Wang Fu was using them to practice his skills in fortune telling, palmistry, fortune telling, and divination.

Fortunately, the effect of practicing is good!

Wang Fu feels that his professional level is enough to be considered a serious Taoist priest.

They are open during the day and practice at night, and their magic power is gradually improving. According to Wang Fu's estimation, in a while, he will be able to reach the second level of Yangguan Road.

Everything is getting better...it's strange.

Seeing that their plan to tamper with food failed, the Wu family mother and son began to get ready to take action.

This morning...

"Old man, I'm going out for a while, but the door is closed today!"

The deaf-mute old man was sweeping the floor, not sure if he heard or not.

He always hides in the Five Emperors Temple, and it’s hard for the other party to attack him. How can Wang Fu play? Why not take the initiative to go out and give the other party a chance to follow him!

"Finally it's out!"

As soon as Wang Fu left the Five Emperors Temple, the spy sent by Wu Tiezhu immediately told him the news.

"Finally get out!"

Wu Tiezhu was also depressed, wondering why his mother strictly prohibited him from breaking into the Five Emperors Temple to do something, but since Wang Fu went out on his own initiative, he didn't have to violate his mother's prohibition.

"Let's see if I don't kill you this time!"

Wu Tiezhu kicked the ground with both legs, his steps were as fast as an elk, and with a few strokes, he turned into an afterimage in the crowd.

If an ordinary person runs like this, his legs will be useless if he can't last more than a moment or three.

However, on the surface of Wu Tiezhu's legs, the tattoos wriggled, twisted, and knotted. The final appearance resembled the downy hind limbs of an insect, which contained powerful explosive power and endurance.

"Where are the people?"

Wu Tiezhu walked to the Five Emperors Temple and pinched his eyeliner.

"Ahem, cough, cough, uncle Wu, let go, you're strangling me to death!"

Eyeliner coughed desperately, tears streaming down his face, and pointed to the end of the road, "Going to the blacksmith shop."

After passing this street, turn right and cross four or five streets to reach the blacksmith shop.

Wu Tiezhu is a local, and his familiarity with the terrain is far inferior to that of a foreigner like Wang Fu. What's more, he can activate magic as fast as a wild beast.

Whoosh!

Wu Tiezhu turned into a strong wind and blew the eyeliner to the ground. The eyeliner repeatedly lamented that he was so unlucky.

Blacksmith shop!

Wu Tiezhu stopped and saw a cup of steaming tea on the small table next to him.

"Blacksmith Jiang, did the little Taoist priest come here just now?"

Blacksmith Jiang was smiling, obviously something good had just happened. When he saw Wu Tiezhu stopping in front of his shop, he felt bad in his heart, and then nodded politely, "Been here!"

"Where are the people?"

"Just left, just left with the front foot!"

gone?

Wu Tiezhu's chest was filled with fire, rushing around and wanting to spit it out on the spot, burning everything in front of him to ashes.

Why can't he catch up?

"Where did you go?"

Jiang Tiejiang pointed decisively, "Winehouse!"

Wine shop, let’s go!

Wu Tiezhu took another step, kicked his legs wildly, and turned into a whirlwind before disappearing without a trace.

"Animals!"

Blacksmith Jiang looked at the dust swirling up, unable to see his surroundings due to the gray dust, and muttered secretly.

In front of the wine shop...

"I just came here. After chatting for a while, I ordered ten jars of newly brewed shochu and paid enough for it."

"You also know that the warehouse purchased a hundred jars earlier, but the wine shop has no more stock. We have to wait for a few more days. He also agreed and said he would pick it up as soon as the wine is released."

"Uncle Wu, are you looking for him?"

The steward of the wine shop was very respectful and told everything.

After all, the situation of Wu Tiezhu standing in front of him was not good, his face was ferocious, his eyes were red, and he looked like he was going to eat people.

"He went..., forget it!"

Wu Tiezhu felt tired. According to what he had experienced over and over again, no matter how hard he chased, he could not catch up with the little Taoist priest, so he simply gave up.

Now he just wants to go home and seek help from his mother.



"High!"

After hearing her son's complaint, Mrs. Wu was shocked for a long time before letting out a sigh.

"Mom, this kid is so slippery, what should I do?"

Mrs. Wu's eyes became sharp, piercing Wu Tiezhu's heart with fear, and her tone became weaker.

"Do you know why you can't catch up even though you follow the footsteps all the way?"

Wu Tiezhu thought for a while and asked tentatively, "Is that kid walking too fast?"

"No, it's impossible!"

"You were brought up by your mother. She crushed the insect eggs, mixed them with tattoo paint, and carved poison patterns on your body. You were able to borrow the power of the witchcraft poison. You are extremely powerful and invulnerable."

"Your feet are unparalleled. How can a little Taoist priest be faster than you?"

"The only explanation is that he can anticipate the enemy's opportunities and always leaves before you arrive!"

At this point, Mrs. Wu sighed, "If what I expected is true, this little Taoist is proficient in Qimen Dunjia. He can always discover your whereabouts in advance. With your brute strength, you are naturally no match for him."

Qi Men Dun Jia is also a unique skill in divination and divination. It is considered by laymen as a Taoist thaumaturgy.

"If this is the case, you and I, mother and son, will be in danger!"

Thinking of this, Mrs. Wu took out a wriggling ball of Gu worms from under her body, put it into a stone mortar and pounded it, finally quenching a small bowl of dark green juice.

"Apply it on the body and do not touch it with water for bathing. It can block the other party's predictions!"

Wu Tiezhu has been practicing with his mother since he was a child. He has never seen any disgusting scenes, so he did not hesitate to grab the sticky juice and smear it on his body.

"Mom, what should we do next?"

Mrs. Wu thought for a while, "Don't act rashly for now, continue to monitor him, I will find a way to find out the truth!"

Wait again?

Wu Tiezhu was a little irritated, "It's better to go into the Five Emperors Temple and kill the little Taoist priest directly."

"Silly boy, what do you know? The Five Emperors Temple is not an ordinary place, so don't act wild!"

Mrs. Wu is also tired. Her son has no brains and will definitely not be able to survive without her own care.
