Daoist Abandoned Wisdom

Chapter 028 Distress

In the early morning, when the sky was just dawning, Tao Xinian put on a brown linen suit, used illusion to transform himself into a nondescript young man who could be easily remembered, and went down the mountain with a bamboo box on his back.Abo followed behind him, looking around vigilantly from time to time.Then whispered: "Master Dao, it seems to be all right."

Tao Xinian walked forward, there was no one at the foot of the mountain, the whole Jizhou seemed like a dead city.But he knew that if he entered the gate of the inner city, it would not be an exaggeration to call the scene inside the city a hell on earth.The living corpses had no family members to take care of them, no food, and there was a situation of biting each other. If this continued, these living corpses would probably turn into real dead corpses.

These days, occasionally a few walking corpses would come to the wilderness, and he had to work hard to avoid conflicts with these annoying living corpses.

He walked along the city wall to the east of the city, pasted a talisman on the city wall, chanted a mantra for a while, and pulled Abo through the wall.There was a granary in the east of the city, and they didn't have enough food, so he had to get some food for the people in the mansion in the northern suburbs to ensure that they wouldn't go hungry.

He hid behind a few trees, surrounded by many walking corpses. Taking advantage of the walking corpses turning their heads, he quickly pasted a talisman and passed through the wall to the inside of the granary.

Abo wiped the sweat off his head with his hand, and said, "It's so dangerous, I was almost discovered. The recent walking corpses are very fierce, if you are bitten, you will be in trouble..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a few noises in the dark granary, and Abo was so frightened that he quickly grabbed Tao Xinian's sleeve and hid behind him.Tao Xinian lit the oil lamp and shone towards the place where a few mice were stealing food recklessly.He patted Abo's head and said, "It's just a few mice, don't be afraid, quickly help me pack food."

He put the oil lamp on the ground, unloaded the bamboo box, carried a bag of rice, and poured it into the bamboo box.After filling three bags, the bamboo box sank a lot. He weighed it and poured another bag into it.It would be hard to carry it any longer, and he might have to carry these bags of rice all the way to escape. If it was too heavy, it would affect his ability to perform Taoism.

Abo re-fastened the bamboo box, Tao Xinian carried the strap and put the bamboo box back on his back.

Unlocking the lock with a charm, he opened the granary door and stepped out.When I came here last time, all the soldiers stationed here had died, and the entire granary was empty.And the courtyard wall was extremely high, and he wasn't worried about walking corpses coming in, so he walked out from the main entrance carelessly, intending to climb to the top of the wall to observe the surrounding situation, and then return to the northern suburbs with the sword.

"The little mouse that stole the food finally showed up."

Tao Xinian's foot that had just stepped out retracted again, and a Taoist priest in a dark gray Taoist robe stood in the courtyard, about 30 years old, holding a dust whisk in his hand, and staring at him with narrow eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.This is Fa Qing's accomplice, Li Guibo, a demon.

He was almost caught by this person last time, but fortunately Kou Huai helped him.But this time he was alone, and Abo was holding him back, so the situation was a little serious.

Seeing Li Guibo, Abo was startled and almost fell down. He quickly grabbed Tao Xinian's clothes and asked in a low voice, "Master Daoist, what should we do?"

Tao Xinian laughed, and said, "What else can I do? Of course I'm running away." After saying that, he quickly stepped back, closed the door of the granary, pasted several charms, turned around, and pasted another wall-penetrating charm to the north , passing through the wall.

Li Guibo stretched out his hand to the door, was burned, quickly withdrew his hand, and stuck the talisman again, the whole door of the granary opened, and there was no trace of Tao Xinian in the granary.He looked at the wall-penetrating talisman on the north wall again, and he understood it, and Yu Jian chased northward.

Tao Xinian flew with his sword, passed over the heads of several walking corpses, and hurried to the north.Today Lu Yu and Jian Su are on the mountain, Kou Huai and Qingchen are staying in the mansion at the foot of the mountain in the northern suburb, although Kou Huai and Qingchen can save him, but he cannot lead Li Guibo to the northern suburb.It's not good to go to the Xuanmiao Temple, and it's not wise to expose the lair.He thought for a while, bit the bullet, made a detour, turned around and flew towards the southern suburbs.

"Master Daoist! Shouldn't we go north? Why are we going south?" Abo shrank small, curling up on Tao Xinian's chest.

Tao Xinian said with a serious expression, "We can't lead him there."

Abo understands that there are so many people hiding in the house in the northern suburbs, Tao Xinian is not willing to lead Li Guibo there in order to find Kou Huai and Qingchen to save him, nor is he willing to let Jian Su and Lu Yu risky.But in this way, no one will come to rescue them, what should we do?

Tao Xinian was also beating drums in his heart, but he really had no choice but to bite the bullet and do it himself.

As soon as he crossed the city wall, Tao Xinian felt something shooting at him from behind. He swayed to the right and almost lost his footing.Looking back, Li Guibo was already behind him, and he was only a few inches away from grabbing the hem of his clothes.He flew to a high place, and Li Guibo followed him up. After flying for a while, Tao Xinian suddenly bent down and plunged into the dense forest.

Li Guibo pursued him further, but Tao Xinian disappeared.

When Li Guibo chased him down, Tao Xinian transformed into a tree, as if blending into the whole forest.Seeing Li Guibo staying in the woods to search back and forth, he felt a little melancholy, wondering how long this illusion could deceive Li Guibo.A Bo tremblingly stuck to Tao Xinian's body, like a grass growing on a tree.

After a quarter of an hour, Li Guibo finally walked out of his sight. Tao Xinian was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Li Guibo came back holding a torch.Did Li Guibo set fire to the mountain in order to find him?

Abo trembled a few times, but didn't make a sound.Tao Xinian bit the bullet and insisted, his mind turned quickly, trying his best to find a way to deal with Li Guibo.

Black smoke billowed from the woods and a fire ignited.The south wind blew and the fire spread.

"Little mouse, I know you are here, come out quickly, lest you become a roast mouse."

Li Guibo's voice came faintly, Tao Xinian had no choice but to take advantage of the moment Li Guibo turned around and escape from the forest.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he changed back to his original shape, there was a sudden heavy rain in the sky, which put out the forest fire.The rainstorm was clever and ingenious, it fell all over the place where Li Guibo set fire, and it didn't fall at all in other places, just happened to put out the fire, and the rain stopped.

Tao Xinian knew that there was an expert to help him, but he didn't know who this expert was.Considering that several fellow Taoists didn't know that he was in trouble, could it be... that the rescuers came?

Seeing Tao Xinian's appearance, Li Guibo asked with a smile, "Did you bring this rain? You are stronger than I imagined. But...the stronger you are, the more conducive you are to your cultivation."

Tao Xinian knew that he, like Fa Qing, cultivated by absorbing other people's cultivation or inner alchemy.Although he is also in this way, compared with them, he really pales in comparison.

Tao Xinian threw a few spells, and the spells exploded in the air, but Li Guibo didn't hide, his whole body was covered in a yellow halo, which didn't affect him at all.Then a hand knife slashed out, splitting Tao Xinian, and at that moment, Tao Xinian who was standing opposite turned into two pieces of rotten wood, and he was gone.

"Pseudomorphism? You can hide quickly."

Li Guibo went after him with his sword, but there was a rain of arrows from the sky. He quickly covered his whole body with yellow light, and the arrows hit the layer of yellow light, making a tinkling sound.He pressed it for a while and felt that something was wrong, there were too many arrows, it was not like a Taoist casting spells, but it was probably reinforcements from the imperial court.

Just when he fell on the ground and wanted to use the ground escape technique to escape, a huge formation suddenly appeared on the ground, and dozens of vines grew out of the formation, surrounding him.

A Taoist in Tsing Yi descended from the sky and muttered a mantra, and the vines turned into iron chains, locking Li Guibo in it.

The Taoist looks very young, in his twenties, with a gentle and handsome appearance, but his Taoism is extremely brilliant.Li Guibo struggled for a while, but couldn't break free from the iron chain, smiled slightly, suddenly became very small, and hid in the grass.The Taoist in Tsing Yi frowned, took off his Tsing Yi and threw it on the ground, covering the ground where Li Guibo was hiding, but he was a step too late, Li Guibo had already disappeared.

A moment later, a group of Wei soldiers appeared in the dense forest, and the leader was Yuan Yao.

"General Yuan, Daozhen is incompetent and let that demon escape." The Taoist in Tsing Yi saluted Yuan Yao and apologized.

"It's okay, as long as people are fine."

Standing beside Yuan Yao, Tao Xinian felt quite fortunate, he never expected that Yuan Yao would arrive with his people so soon, if he hadn't brought his people here, he would definitely not be Li Guibo's opponent, and it would have taken a long time to escape. A lot of effort.

"Ah Zhen, are you injured?" A senior Daoist in his fifties walked out of the army, pulled up Daozhen's sleeves, and asked with concern.

"Master, Daozhen is fine. It's just that Yao Dao escaped too fast, Daozhen couldn't catch him."

"This time our side was not well prepared. Next time you go with senior brother Zhifei, you may not be able to catch that monster."

Zhifei stood aside, smiled gently, and touched the top of Daozhen's head.He feels very similar to Kou Huai.

Tao Xinian peeked at Yuan Yao, his hair had grown a bit longer, he was wearing black armor and a helmet, he looked not much different from when we parted two months ago.He thought he must have failed to resign again, otherwise he wouldn't have come all the way to Jizhou.Crusade against Faqing is a thankless task.

However, it's okay if you don't quit.He always felt that if the person who came was Yuan Yao, the odds of winning would be higher.
