Chapter 16 Vicious Dogs, Daoists of Purity
Luo Bei and Yuan Tianyi have been together for a long time, but suddenly they really broke up. They feel extremely reluctant and sad.
There are more and more houses around. Although I have been shaking and displaced around since I was a child, I am used to the lonely and deserted scene, which is thousands of miles away. Luobei is not used to it. After walking ten miles towards the direction Yuan Tianyi pointed, he really entered a mountain town.
"No wonder you go out to practice is called entering the world."
"Is this the Zihui Taoist Temple?"
The mountain town is not big, only a few miles in a radius, hundreds of households. But seeing shops standing, smoke rising from the cooking stove, people coming and going, Luobei also felt like he was suddenly a different world. After walking around the entire mountain town, Luobei found a Taoist temple located in the northwest of the town. There was a bluestone archway gate several meters in front of the Taoist temple, with two Qilin stone sculptures on both sides. Behind the archway is a three-hole gate, painted black, and the walls are painted with patterns of Yin and Yang fish. There are famous words on the plaques hanging above the three-hole gate of the Taoist temple. However, Luobei can only write his own name now and cannot even recognize the words, so he doesn't know whether this Taoist temple is the Zihui Taoist temple mentioned by Yuan Tianyi.
Because Yuan Tianyi told Luo Bei that he had nothing to do, Luo Bei did not ask if this Taoist temple was the Zihui Taoist temple, and just sat on a stone step about a hundred meters away from the Taoist temple in a daze.
Before he knew it, the sun had set in the west, and Luo Bei, who had practiced the Mahakara secret method, unconsciously entered a state of tranquility. When he felt that the sun's true fire energy seemed to be filled with stars around his body, Luo Bei suddenly woke up, thinking that he needed to remember the scriptures and tricks he taught by Yuan Tianyi's initiation, he could not think of everything about the Mahakara secret method.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a barking sound of dogs coming from the northwest, and it seemed that there were as many as five or six heads.
Luo Bei stood up in surprise and looked at it, but saw a few children running towards the corner of the street. A child who was a little younger than Luo Bei ran in a hurry. He accidentally fell to the ground. When he got up, his hands and knees were already rubbing blood on the ground.
Five or six tall and sharp-tongued dogs, barking constantly, then rushed out from the corner of the street.
These children were all ragged and had a vegetable face. Two of them were skinny and bone-skinned, and they looked like a gust of wind could blow down. In the first two, they seemed to be holding a few steamed buns covered with vegetable juice and had been gnawed, some cold dishes and meat bones that didn't have much meat at all!
At this time, the children were exhausted, and the sound of breathing in their chests was like a bellows in a blacksmith's shop, especially the child who had just fallen, who was trembling because of pain or fear, and his eyes were full of begging for mercy and fear.
"How many little beggars dare to come to our door to grab dog food!" Such a roar came from the streets and alleys.
Being rich and unkind!
Luo Bei has been rippling and wandering in nearby mountain towns since he was young. How could he not know that these beggars who were almost the same age as him? They just had to steal the dog food from rich families because they wanted to survive. Even so, they might not be able to eat in one meal in ten meals. Seeing that these furs were all shiny, the tall and headed dogs with white and long teeth were about to catch up with these beggars, Luo Bei couldn't help but feel a surge of blood in his chest.
"Evil dog, get out!" Luo Bei actually roared, waved his fists, and blocked the beggars.
Although Luo Bei has no cultivation at all, his mind, which has been tempered in Luofu, is extremely tenacious. When he rushed up, he has no fear in his heart, and he is indescribable. Those evil dogs are used to bullying people. They have never seen anyone run away in panic and have never seen anyone dare to stop him. They are actually shocked by Luo Bei's momentum. They are all in the local area, revealing their white teeth, barking wildly, and they dare not approach for a while.
"Huh?" A fat man walked out from the corner of the street, which was surprisingly consistent with Luo Bei's image of being rich and unkind. A silk jacket with a big jade pendant hanging around his waist, a fat head and ears, a high bulge of belly, and a pair of thin eyes seemed to be squeezed out by flesh. The fat man on his body and the oily face formed a strong contrast with the skinny beggars. Looking at the vicious dogs that were shocked by Luo Bei, the fat man like a rich and juvenile was slightly stunned, but then he regarded Luo Bei, who was wearing ordinary coarse linen clothes, as if he was in the same group as those beggars, "Why, can you rob the dog food and have the courage to beat my dog?" The fat man sneered, his face changed, and he roared at the dogs: "A bunch of waste, even a little furry can scare you, what's the use of me raising you!"
Dogs rely on people's power!
Amid the fat man's roar, the tall-headed evil dogs also emitted fierce lights in their eyes and rushed towards Luobei.
Luo Bei picked up a stone, and a "Wang" screamed and hit the head of the dog that was the first dog. However, these dogs were extremely ferocious and moved very quickly. When the dog screamed, Luo Bei felt a pain in his leg and was bitten by a vicious dog. Luo Bei was in pain and punched the vicious dog repeatedly, but the vicious dog was never let go. Another vicious dog rushed up, and Luo Bei was knocked down at once.
"Bite him!" Seeing the blood flowing from Luo Bei's leg, the fat man who was unkind laughed excitedly.
Luo Bei gritted his teeth, and suddenly saw a vicious dog biting straight to his face in the light of his eyes. Luo Bei hurriedly stuck the vicious dog's neck with both hands. For a moment, one person and one dog rolled on the ground, and several other dogs pounced on him. In the meantime, Luo Bei felt severe pain in his shoulders and backs, and he didn't know how many bites he had been bitten.
The residents near the mountain town heard the noise and gathered together, but seemed to be afraid of the ferocity of the dogs and the power of the fat people, so they could only shout in surprise and dare not come forward to stop them.
Seeing Luo Bei rolling all over the ground by being bitten, the fat man in luxury was even more proud and laughed, "Little beggar, beg for mercy quickly. If I beg for mercy, maybe I will have a lot of kindness today and let you go."
beg for mercy?
Hearing the fat man's smug laughter, Luo Bei's heart suddenly churned, and a strong and extremely angry surged into his heart. A muffled groan, even his right wrist was bitten by an evil dog. "Let me beg for mercy to someone like you, don't think about it!" But Luo Bei roared and bit the throat of the evil dog that bit his right wrist!
Blood splattered everywhere!
"Is this little beggar a human or a beast?"
For a moment, not only the dog screamed and jumped away like crazy, but even the fat man in gorgeous clothes, who was extremely proud, was shocked by Luo Bei's fierce beast-like eyes.
"Wuliang Tianzun, can the outside of the village master appreciate my thin face? Stop it for now." At this moment, a clear voice suddenly came from one side.
The fat man who was unkind and the onlookers turned his head unconsciously, but found that at some point, a red crown four-lift bridge had already been parked on the side of the street.
"This is the sedan chair of the county magistrate!" As soon as he saw the outfits of the sedan chair and the four sedan carryrs, the fat man was immediately surprised. When he saw the person who pushed open the curtain, the fat man immediately returned the gift. "It turned out to be the real person Qingxu. The real person has his life, how dare he not follow it?" As he spoke respectfully, the fat man stopped and drove the evil dogs aside.
"Since Mr. Zhuang is so polite, I have a reluctant request. I won't be as good as today's business, so I'll just let it go. Mr. Zhuang doesn't know what to do?"
The person who walked out of the sedan chair twisted his long beards, wore a purple gold Taoist crown and a black Taoist robe. He was a very clear-faced, white-faced, and long bearded. He looked seventy years old, with a fairy-bone Taoist style.
When he saw this old Taoist priest, Luo Bei, who had just stood up from the ground, was shocked unconsciously.
Because he felt that this old Taoist priest had a different aura than that of ordinary people... the unique aura of a monk.
"Of course, of course." The fat man, who was so vicious and arrogant just now, nodded and smiled. People like him were just bullying good and afraid of evil, and could only bully ordinary mountain people. For example, the true person of Qingxu was the master of the Zihui Taoist Temple. Not to mention that there are many supernatural powers, even the nearby bandits dared not come to this mountain town. Just because he was a good friend of the county magistrate, the fat man dared not offend anything.
"This guy, look at you, it seems that you are not a local person." After Master Qingxu paused his head, he ignored the fat man with a flat face and his bright eyes fixed Luo Bei.
Luo Bei used up his energy, his body was covered in blood and trembling, but he was determined to keep in mind Yuan Tianyi's instructions and nodded, "I am a nearby Panlongtun. Our village has suffered bandits and everyone has been separated, so he has arrived here."
"So that's it." Zhenren Qingxu nodded slightly, "I see that you have beautiful bones and good qualifications. Why not accept you as your disciple, live in my temple first, and then help you find your family?"
When Zhenren Qingxu said this, the people around him were suddenly in an uproar.
You should know that it is difficult for ordinary people to see this Zhenren Qingxu. His Taoist temple rarely accepts disciples, and even wealthy people may not be willing to accept them. However, Zhenren Qingxu took the initiative to tell the young man who had just escaped from the evil dog on this street that he wanted to accept him as his disciple. What's so special about this young man? Is it because he is brave enough to be afraid of evil dogs?
But just as everyone looked at Luo Bei in surprise, Luo Bei did not nod, but asked, "Master, who are you?"
Qingxu smiled slightly and clicked on the dozen Taoist temples that entered the courtyard not far away, "I am the main person of the Zihui Taoist temple, Qingxu."
Many kind mountain people couldn't help but scream, asking this stupid boy to agree quickly, because being a disciple of Zihui Taoist Temple could at least represent a worry-free food and clothing. Seeing Luo Bei finally nodding and agreeing, if it weren't for the shocked fat man who had not left, these kind mountain people would have clapped happily. "Good people will be rewarded." When these kind mountain people were thinking happily in their hearts, they did not expect that sometimes this sentence was just a lie they used to comfort themselves, or that the small story that happened today would be given such a result and spread. But many times they would not think that some people did not do evil in their lives but were chaotic and displaced and could not have a good ending.
