When I was a Taoist

Chapter 10 I don't know who to trust

The yellow talisman flew in front of the old ghost, as long as it could be printed on his face, even if he was not suppressed, he would lose part of his ghost power.You must know that ghosts rely on ghost power to survive in the world.If all ghost power disappears, even the strongest ghost will become nothingness.

Just when I thought that the yellow talisman was sure to hit, the old ghost just blew lightly, and the yellow talisman fell to the ground directly.In an instant, my heart became cold.How strong is a ghost that can easily blow away yellow talismans?

"The unique knowledge of the Guiyi faction is extremely powerful, how come you can't even control a single yellow talisman."

The old ghost seemed very dissatisfied with my performance, frowned and walked up to me, asking, "How long have you been in Taoism?"

At this moment, I understood that the old ghost in front of me could directly slap me to death with a single slap.As the saying goes, a good man never suffers from immediate losses. Even if I hate ghosts, I can only answer honestly at this time: "I have only been in Taoism for a week."

"One week? In this way, your talent is not bad, and you can control the yellow talisman in such a short period of time."

While stroking his white beard, the old ghost nodded and said, "Your patriarch, how is Yi Dezhen in good health?"

I looked at the old ghost with a strange face. If he is really a deadly enemy with the patriarch, how could he not know the news of the death of the patriarch?

Seeing my appearance, the old ghost's expression changed, and he hurriedly asked: "Why, is there any trouble for Master Yide?"

I shook my head, my face was full of regret: "The Patriarch has passed away a long time ago, and I only know the existence of the Patriarch from the mouth of the master."

"I didn't expect that even you, an old bastard, didn't escape."

Hearing what I said, the old ghost couldn't help but smiled wryly, and sat cross-legged in front of me: "Little guy, do you really want to know who I am?"

I nodded.Nonsense, you suddenly appeared behind me this night, and asked me so many inexplicable questions, anyone would want to know your identity.

"Actually, I am the Taoist priest of this Taoist temple, and I am also a friend of your ancestor."

As soon as the past was mentioned, the old ghost's face was full of sorrow, and he said with emotion: "For some reason, your ancestor and I were hunted down by a mysterious person. I didn't expect that he could not escape after I died."

Hearing this, I was puzzled, and hurriedly asked: "Old ghost... Oh no, senior, why didn't you enter reincarnation after you passed away, but hid in this broken Taoist temple for decades."

"You are a smart kid, and you will definitely make a difference in the future."

The old ghost stroked his beard and explained: "Ghosts with grievances are absolutely not allowed to enter reincarnation. After I was attacked and killed in a surprise attack, I was so angry that I almost turned into a ghost. In the end, a benefactor helped me Save me, wash away the resentment in me, and then I can safely hide in the Taoist temple for decades."

"To be able to wash away all the resentment from Li Gui's body, it seems that his benefactor is not simple."

This thought flashed through my mind, and my vigilance against the old ghost in front of me relaxed a bit.He has been dead for so many years, ghost power should be far above me.If you want to harm me, I am afraid that you have already done it.

"Old man, since God gave me your descendant, I will take good care of him no matter what."

The old ghost raised his head to the sky and sighed, then looked straight at me, and said seriously: "Little guy, my Taoist name is Qingxin Taoist. Back then, I assisted Yi De to take care of this Guiyi faction. So it’s not too much for you to call me Patriarch.”

As soon as I heard it, this old ghost can assist the ancestor to manage the Guiyi faction, and his strength must be comparable to that of the ancestor.If he can teach me three moves and two moves, won't I walk sideways in front of some brats in the future?
Thinking of this, I immediately knelt down in front of the old ghost, kowtowed three times and then called out "Patriarch".

"Okay, okay, I didn't expect to see the descendants of the Guiyi faction. Old man, you should be reincarnated with peace of mind."

Qingxin nodded excitedly and hurriedly helped me up.When I stood up, I could clearly see that his eyes were full of tears.Such emotions cannot be imitated, so I firmly believe in the identity of a Taoist priest of Qingxin.

After calming down, Qingxin put on a serious expression and asked, "Little guy, let me ask you what Taoism you have learned now?"

As soon as I heard it, it was over, and the patriarch came up to check my cultivation.But I don't even count as a half-baby, except for pinching fingers and stepping, I don't even get started.A Taoist priest like me, if released, would be laughed at by others.

Seeing my embarrassing expression, Qingxin seemed to have guessed something, and said in a deep voice: "Little guy, there are some things you don't need to know now, but you must improve your strength as soon as possible, so as not to follow in our footsteps. Our enemies are very Powerful, so powerful that it is unimaginable. Whether the Guiyi faction can flourish or not depends on you."

All of a sudden, I was given such a big hat, and I said with a wry smile: "Patriarch, it's not that I don't work hard to cultivate the Tao, but that my sloppy master has left, and I can only cultivate the Tao by groping for ghosts."

"Your master told you about ghosts? It seems that he trusts you quite a bit." Qingxin glanced at me in surprise, and said, "In that case, before your master comes back, let me teach you the Taoism I did some research on this ghost thing back then, and although I can’t say I’m proficient, it’s more than enough to teach you.”

With Qingxin's words, the stone in my heart was completely let go.Qingxin's strength must be far superior to Gao Liang's. If he taught me Taoism, when Gao Liang comes back, he will definitely impress me.

Qingxin told me that if a Taoist priest focuses on the practice of Taoism, it is no different from the most stupid choice.If the body is as fragile as a piece of paper, even if you have the strongest Taoism, the constraints of the body may not be able to support you to perform it.

So since then, I have been running around the village every day before the sun comes out.At dawn, no matter how tired I am, I must immediately sit cross-legged on the ground, pinching my fingers with both hands, absorbing the purest aura of heaven and earth.

Every time I come back from a run and pass by the village head's house, the village head will warmly welcome me in, and give me all kinds of delicious food and drinks.But no matter how sincere his attitude is now, when I think of the scene of my mother being humiliated by them, I can't stop my anger.So I just said a few perfunctory words coldly, then got up and left directly.

Hearing the sigh of the village chief behind me, I actually felt a little uncomfortable.Now the truth of the matter seems to be in front of my eyes, but I can't always touch it.The words of the fox fairy, Gao Liang, and the village chief all have loopholes. I really don't know who to trust.I'm afraid I can only make my own judgment when I find out the clues myself.
