When I was a Taoist

Chapter 42 It's Like a Game

"**, is this a gang of human traffickers?"

Jumping off Fanchen's back, I asked.

Fan Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know, but we'll know if we go in and take a look. With the strength of the two of us, even if we meet a strong man who is five big and three thick, we can beat them to the ground."

After hearing what Fan Chen said, I also thought it was quite reasonable, so I went to the gate of the factory with him, trying to push the gate open.

"The door is locked?"

I frowned when I found that the door hadn't moved at all, and couldn't be pushed open. Just as I was about to enter through the window, Fan Chen took out his long sword and said with a smile, "Where is the need for such trouble?"

After finishing speaking, Fan Chen directly cut off the lock inside the gate with a sword, and then pushed the door open to enter.Stepping into the factory, we first carefully looked around.When he found that there was nothing unusual, he hurriedly ran towards the small room.

"Junior, this is not a place for you to come, go back."

Halfway through the run, a hoarse voice suddenly sounded.Both Fanchen and I trembled in fright and hurriedly stopped.Because we never found out that there were other people in the factory!
Looking for the sound, we saw an old woman sitting cross-legged not far from the door of the room.She was wearing a long black robe, which covered her entire body, making it almost impossible to see her face clearly.Just judging from her hoarse voice, her face must be uglier than the corpse king.

I took a deep breath, emboldened myself, and asked, "Senior, what did these children do wrong, why are they locked up here?"

The old woman didn't seem to hear me, and she didn't even pay attention to me, and said directly: "Leave here within ten seconds, otherwise you can stay."

"Hehe, I haven't met such an arrogant person for a long time."

Fan Chen was gearing up, and said to me in a low voice: "How about it, are we sure that the two of us can defeat this old woman together?"

Ever since Misty Village, I have learned the truth that people should not be judged by their appearance.Even a village chief in his eighties can possess such terrifying skills, and this weird old woman might also have the same combat prowess as the village chief.

After hesitating for a few seconds, I nodded emphatically, and said, "Shoot as soon as you hit, whoever loves you is the grandson!"

Just when the two of us were about to start, the back door of the factory suddenly opened, and then a dozen figures walked over.Among them were not only old women, but also little girls my age.What's more, standing behind them is an acquaintance of ours, naturally the owner of the thin monkey stall.

"What's going on?" An old woman with long hair frowned and asked in a deep voice.

The old woman guarding the room hurriedly stood up and replied respectfully: "Great Wizard, these two boys broke in suddenly and wanted to rescue the children in the room."

"Interesting, it's been a long time since anyone dared to confront me so directly."

The great wizard looked up at us, and I was surprised to find that her eyes had almost no pupils, and she looked extremely penetrating.

"Who sent you two? Go back and tell your master that these are the cultured products we have worked so hard to catch. If you want them too, go and catch them yourself."

The great wizard's words made me and Fan Chen confused.With a curl of his lips, Fan Chen said, "Old woman, I don't understand what you're talking about. We just couldn't bear to see you abducting children, that's why we rescued them. As for the masters and cultivators you're talking about, we don't know anything. I don't bother to know."

"Oh? Aren't you the ones he sent here?"

Hearing this, the great wizard showed a look of surprise, and then sneered: "Interesting, you have no background, and you dare to snatch someone from me, do you know my identity?"

"It doesn't matter who you are, there is nothing wrong with these children, we must rescue them all today." Fan Chen raised his head and said defiantly.

The thin monkey stall owner stood behind everyone and looked at me and Fanchen, and said viciously: "You two idiots really think that you are invincible. Let me tell you, this is a famous great wizard in the Northern Xinjiang wizard school. The two not only want to take away the great wizard's things, but also insult the great wizard, so let's die today!"

Hearing the words "Northern Xinjiang Wizard", Fan Chen and I completely froze.Although we are quite far away from Northern Xinjiang, we still have some understanding of some things in Northern Xinjiang.

Northern Xinjiang is a magical and strange place, with two factions of Gu Masters and Wizards.And each faction is divided into many genres.The great wizard in front of us is probably the mainstay of one of the genres.

The tasks of wizards are mostly similar to our Taoist priests.They also have ways to deal with ghosts, and they can also perform rituals such as evocation of souls.But because the northern border is too mysterious and dangerous, and the number of wizards is rare, it is not known to outsiders.

"Now I know I'm afraid, but it's too late."

The great wizard looked at us with pity, waved his hands and said, "Kill them, don't leave any trouble."

"and many more!"

Fan Chen hurriedly stopped her, and said in a low voice: "Do you know who my master is! If you dare to touch a single hair of mine, I guarantee that your faction will not be at peace!"

After finishing speaking, Fan Chen took out a piece of red jade pendant from his pocket and waved it in front of the great wizard.The latter took a look and asked with a complicated expression, "Are you Xuanyuan's apprentice?"

Fan Chen nodded and said with a sneer, "It's good that you know. If something happens to me, you should know how my master will avenge me. At that time, I guarantee that you will not have a peaceful day in northern Xinjiang."

Seeing Fan Chen's confident and haughty expression, I felt a burst of envy in my heart.With such a master, no matter where he goes, he is like holding a gold medal for avoiding death.

The great wizard was obviously overwhelmed by Xuanyuan's prestige, and couldn't say anything for a while.Fan Chen then pointed at me and said, "Do you know who he is? He is regarded as a benefactor by Taoist Mochizuki. If something happens to him, you know what will happen."

"Mochizuki? Is that the president of the Dragon City Taoist Association branch?"

My identity made the great wizard dubious.No matter how you look at it, a little kid doesn't seem like he can be the benefactor of Taoist Mochizuki.

"If you don't believe me, even though you can try it, I don't think you can bear the wrath of the living Taoist branch and my master."

Fan Chen folded his arms around his chest and looked at the great wizard calmly.But his slightly trembling fingers proved the fluctuation of his mood.

This process is like a game.If we win the bet, perhaps the Grand Wizard will back down.But if we lose the bet, it is almost impossible to escape from the hands of the great wizard.When the time comes, don't talk about finding someone to take revenge, I'm afraid our bodies won't be found by others.
