The atmosphere seemed to have solidified at this moment. Mangtian and I looked at each other, while the uncle and nephew Lu Yuanming next to us stood silently waiting for the result.
"What are the benefits of joining you?"
After a long time, Mang Tianlong asked coldly.
"Shuang Kuang, I like you as a straightforward person. It will be beneficial to join me. I will be granted the title of protector of the hall, and the merits will be shared. If I have the opportunity in the future, I can help you turn the dragon into a dragon."
When the cigarette came to the end, I threw it away and looked at the former with confidence.
"It sounds very tempting, but I'm afraid that entering your hall will attract criticism from the Zhengwu Immortals. After all, I also belong to the Mang family."
Mang Tianlong touched his chin and said thoughtfully.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but sneer.
"I'm not going to say it harshly, young master. The threshold for the Five Immortals is as high as a mountain. They all look at people with their nostrils. A wild immortal like you may not be accepted even if you practice to the realm of shedding. Follow me now. In the future, When we share merit, don’t we know what is good and what is bad?”
Looking at the hesitant Mang Tianlong, I pointed out the little Jiujiu in his heart without any politeness.
Talk about conditions? Is he worthy?
At least, with my current methods and trump cards, Mang Tianlong has not taken it seriously yet. It was only because of the lack of team members that I came up with the idea of accommodating it. I didn’t expect that the other party would take advantage of it and use such a ridiculous excuse to block me. .
Sure enough, after being hit by my words, Mang Tianlong suddenly blushed and hurriedly explained with a smile: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's just that I have been used to it for a hundred years, and my mind can't turn around for a while. Please forgive me, brother Ma."
At this moment, Mang Tianlong felt very uneasy. Firstly, he was worried that I would regret it, and secondly, he was upset about his previous behavior.
He naturally knows good and bad in his heart. For a nameless wild immortal like himself, the Zhengwu Immortal Hall will not look down on him at all. Even his own family will not accept him. If he does not get a title from the hall, he will achieve something in the future. I'm afraid it will be even more difficult.
Now, the human being in front of him invites him to come to his hall to be the protector of the Dharma. Naturally, Mang Tianlong cannot refuse.
"Hey, there's no need to be nervous. I'm not a cannibal. I won't treat you badly when you serve as a guardian in the hall. As long as you do well, you may be rewarded by the leader of the hall in the future. Your future is bright."
Seeing Python Tianlong surrender, I continued.
"Okay, then I will join your hall, but I have something to say first. If someone comes to the Zhengwu Immortal Hall, you have to step in and deal with it."
Mang Tianlong had no reason to refuse the conditions I offered, and immediately agreed.
"Joining the Five Immortals Temple means you have a foundation for establishing yourself. There is no need to mention this again in the future."
I lit another cigarette and waved to him to come over.
Seeing this, Mang Tianlong stepped forward, but just when he was about to say something, I suddenly raised my hand in front of him, and then fell hard on his forehead.
boom!
Just hearing a crisp sound, Mang Tianlong trembled as if struck by lightning for the entire moment, his pupils tightened, and he said intermittently: "Five fingers cover the sky, yin and yang reverse, there is no temple in the mountain, and I feel at ease..."
"Second Uncle, is this also a unique ceremony at the Northern Chuma Hall?"
Lu Ling'er on the side looked at it curiously, and then tugged on Lu Yuanming's arm, motioning for him to explain.
"Well, as far as I know, this is a unique method of the Five Immortals Temple. It leaves a mark on the Immortal Family, and it is also a proof of identity."
Lu Yuanming smiled and said.
While the uncle and nephew were chatting, Mang Tianlong had returned to normal, but the shock on his face still did not dissipate.
Just now, Mang Tianlong's consciousness kept falling as if being pulled by something, and then he vaguely heard someone talking to him. In the process, his consciousness gradually became clearer. When he opened his eyes, he saw what was in front of him. I slowly retracted my palm.
"This...is it over?"
After checking his whole body and finding nothing wrong, Mang Tianlong asked in confusion.
Hearing this, I responded calmly: "Then what else do you want?"
"Well...it's nothing, I just think it seems a bit too easy."
Mang Tianlong smiled sarcastically. He was a wild immortal and was used to being wild outside. Naturally, he didn't know much about the rules and methods of these gangsters.
"I left a unique mark of the Five Immortals Temple on you. This is proof of identity and the first step to enter the hall. The formal entrance ceremony cannot be held for the time being. In fact, it is just a formality. What should be done The work has been done, and from now on, you will be the protector of my hall, and you will be given the name Black Dragon, which means that in the future you will shed your snake body and become a dragon in one step."
I slowly raised my left arm, then rolled up my sleeves, and said to Mang Tianlong: "The upper body method of the immortal family in my Five Immortals Temple is different from that of the Zhengwu Immortals. They pay attention to the spiritual tools of the Dima Immortal family, and there is no trace of them. Essence and blood come out.”
After saying this, Mang Tianlong was stunned for a moment, but then he cut his palm and threw a few drops of blood that emitted a faint light onto my arm.
"My brother Ma opened his mouth, and the Immortal Family stepped on the clouds. Here comes a black general with black armor, black soldiers, and a cloak to protect the Dharma throne. He will sweep away evil spirits, penetrate the yin and yang, and one day transform into a dragon and climb the Immortal Bridge."
"Photography!"
As I muttered quickly, the blood drops falling on my arms soon disappeared strangely on the surface of the skin.
After a while, Mang Tianlong was surprised to see a lifelike tattoo of a black-scaled python appearing on my arm.
"It's done. You can host your spirit body on this tattoo in the future. As for the body, you can decide by yourself."
After doing this, I slowly put down my sleeves, then patted the former's shoulder and said softly.
"Don't worry, no one can find where I am hiding."
Mang Tianlong raised the corner of his mouth. After so many years of hard work, few people are more professional than him when it comes to life.
"Just make your own arrangements. After the five immortals in me have recovered, I will let you meet them one by one."
I waved my hand and did not continue to dwell on the matter.
At this moment, Lu Yuanming's uncle and nephew slowly stepped forward, seeming to have something to say.
"Friend Lu, if you have anything to say, speak directly."
I saw the hesitation in the other person's eyes at the first glance, so I took the lead in breaking the silence before he could speak.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yuanming smiled and said, "Chen Litang's ability to see into people's hearts has opened my eyes. There is indeed something I want to say, but I'm afraid you won't agree."
Hearing this, I raised my eyebrows and asked, "What's the matter? I can help you as long as I can within my ability. I'll be sorry if it goes beyond that."
"Hahaha, Chen Litang is really quick to talk, so I won't be secretive. This matter is actually very simple. Have you ever heard of the Human Skin Inn?"
Lu Yuanming laughed loudly, but his expression quickly turned serious.
Human skin inn?
When I heard these four words, I suddenly became cautious.
