Taoist Master: I have a strange world

Chapter 58 Wu Family, Five Poison Cave
  "Ding!"

When Zhang Ling draws his sword, he doesn't have any advanced skills, it's just a combination of speed and power.

The clear sword light flashed across, and the head of the evil snake was cut off directly.

Zhang Ling flicked the blood away from the sword.

"Although it carries a ray of evil energy, it is a bit weak. It is just an ordinary snake with more evil energy."

"No, it's not that unusual. He is obviously actively attacking people. Is it because of that wisp of evil energy?"

Zhang Ling looked at the decapitated snake. The headless snake body twisted a few times unconsciously, and its muscles twitched instinctively, but it was no longer alive.

Looking closely, Zhang Ling could see that the evil aura attached to the snake had dissipated and dispersed into the heaven and earth, seeming to make the filthy aura between heaven and earth even more filthy.

Zhang Ling saw that the snake's body was the same, so he raised his head and looked around in the dark night.

"Many people are bitten by snakes and scorpions during the day, and at night there are snakes with evil spirits running around. I must not be the only one."

Judging from what I saw during the day, it was not just snakes that were causing trouble and hurting people nearby.

Not long after, Zhang Ling actually discovered another snake. Like the previous snake, it had a trace of evil aura, so Zhang Ling easily caught it with his eyes.

Ding!
  Zhang Ling took action and killed the snake with the Longquan sword attached with the faint light of the golden light curse.

But Zongmu provided Zhang Ling with vision in the dark night, allowing him to see everything around him clearly.

This time, Zhang Ling had some verification.

Moreover, this snake was not afraid of people at all. Instead, it swam forward and headed straight towards Zhang Ling.

"Another one!"

Zhang Ling shook his head and didn't think it was the reason.

As for the remaining two poisons that hurt people, Zhang Ling has not heard of them yet.

"Then where do these snakes and scorpions come from?"

But the question is, what is the purpose of the other party doing this?
  "Is it just to harm some people?"

Not only was the light of the golden light spell on the sword, but the snake itself lost its life, and the evil spirit also dissipated.

Zhang Ling thought of Liu Dashan.

Zhang Ling followed the small river up the river, not forgetting to look at both sides of the river.

There are also scorpions and centipedes.

The person who purchased the live scorpions and snakes from Liu Dashan must have something to do with the current matter.

Zhang Ling looked solemn and realized this.

But Zhang Ling thought for a moment and didn't expect there to be any reason.

"Look around to see if there are any similar snakes and scorpions."

"Sure enough, this is not an exception. There are not many of these snakes with evil spirits in this land."

Zhang Ling raised his head and glanced around. It shone slightly in the dark night, like two bright pearls, and also like an alien species.

"These poisonous creatures with evil spirits are active at night, and I'm afraid more people will be bitten."

"We can't let this go."

Zhang Ling felt a sense of responsibility, which was also the sense of responsibility he had as a Taoist priest.

In the real world, since ancient times, in troubled times, Buddhism has closed its doors and Taoism has entered the world.

Why join the WTO? Treat diseases and save people, follow the way of heaven, and understand the heart of heaven and the heart of man.

Therefore, Zhang Ling couldn't sit still when he knew what consequences the five poisons would cause.

"Go to Liu Dashan and ask the person who bought the live scorpions and snakes!"

Zhang Ling immediately changed direction and headed for Liu Dashan's location.

As Zhang Ling was on his way, he moved very quickly and soon arrived outside Liu Dashan's house.

Although it was already dark and the room was dim, Zhang Ling glanced around and saw two people inside, who should be Liu Dashan and his father. “Are the wives and children at Liu Dashan’s house not back yet?”

This thought just flashed by, Zhang Ling had already spoken, and his voice spread into the courtyard.

"Where is Liu Dashan?"

"exist!"

After a while, there was a response from the courtyard, and lights were lit at the same time. Liu Dashan came out and was a little surprised when he saw Zhang Ling:

"Taoist Priest, why are you looking for me in the middle of the night?"

"I have something to ask you."

Zhang Ling stated his purpose directly: "Who did you sell your live scorpions and snakes to after entering the city?"

"This..." Liu Dashan was still a little hesitant, as if he didn't want to reveal it.

Zhang Ling said directly: "You usually catch snakes and scorpions, so you naturally know the poison of snakes and scorpions, but now there are snakes and scorpions raging in every corner of the country, hurting people everywhere. If the cause is not found out, I am afraid that more and more people will be injured."

Seeing Zhang Ling say this, Liu Dashan's expression changed, hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said: "The reason why I didn't tell the Taoist Master is because I had an agreement with the person who received the goods, and I couldn't disclose the information at will. For the sake of business, I also I dare not say it.”

"But now that snakes and scorpions are causing trouble, I can't care less!"

Liu Dashan made a decision and informed Zhang Ling: "When I entered the town, the person who sold the snake and scorpion was the Wu family, one of the wealthy families."

"Wu family?"

Zhang Ling wrote down the name, and at the same time recalled it, and also recalled the information about the town that some old viewers had said.

In the town, the Wu family is one of the largest families. According to legend, the other party is just a branch. The main family is in the capital of the Celestial Dynasty, and some members of the family are officials and occupy high positions.

Therefore, no one from the Wu family dared to do so for hundreds of miles.

"Is it related to the Wu family?"

Zhang Ling couldn't help frowning, because the Wu family was powerful and had many disciples serving as temple officials.

According to legend, the head of Liuyuntang in the town was named Wu.

If the current scourge of snakes and scorpions is related to the Wu family, Zhang Ling's own power cannot stop it at all.

"Even if the Wu family wants to do something, my current strength cannot resist it."

Zhang Ling had this idea.

He is only in the stage of refining his energy.

If you give him some time to prepare, he can prepare many Taoist techniques, and even open a forum to practice them, using real-world resources to accomplish many things.

However, the Wu family is powerful and has a ‘hall leader’.

Once you reach this level, you are no longer invincible to ordinary human beings, and can be compared to the spirit-refining spirit in Taoism.

Zhang Ling was powerless even if he had the intention.

Therefore, what Zhang Ling can do is to try his best to help the surrounding villagers, kill more snakes and scorpions, and let the surrounding people take more precautions.

"In addition, we can also use the power of the temple owner to find people to send messages to temples in other places to see if they can be restrained."

Zhang Ling thought to himself.

At this time, Liu Dashan in front of him sighed and said with some self-blame: "Taoist Master, I am a little selfish. In fact, the scorpion that bit me this morning was not an ordinary wild scorpion, but was sold to me. He went to the Wu family, but I caught him again yesterday."

"I have caught scorpions many times and I am used to leaving small marks on their legs, so I can recognize them."

After saying this, Liu Dashan seemed to be relieved of his burden, and continued to say with relief:

"Taoist Priest, I sold the snake and scorpion to the Wu family. I once heard the Wu family's steward spill the beans and mention a place."

"Where?" Zhang Ling asked. Being remembered by Liu Dashan meant that this place was extraordinary.

"Five Poison Cave, Five Poison Pit."
