"Well, we have to inspect the goods first. What if it's fake?"
I said calmly.
"Boy, don't bully others too much!"
Taoist priest Xuan Ming's steel teeth were about to shatter: "I, Xuan Ming, always do what I say, so get the antidote first!"
"Bring me the secret book first!"
I didn't back down: "Senior, as long as we inspect the goods, I will give you the antidote right away."
"Think about it, if we don't keep our promise, it won't be difficult to keep us here with your methods, senior, right?"
Taoist Master Xuan Ming's face was filled with anger. After thinking for a few seconds, he finally nodded.
"Okay, let me give you the secret book first!"
As he spoke, he threw the secret book over.
I took it in my hand and found that the secret book was a thin thread-bound book. The cover was badly damaged, and there were three big words written on it: "Tong Xuan Ghost Technique!"
After flipping through a few pages, the secret methods for practicing ghost arts were recorded, and they seemed to be genuine.
It's just that I haven't personally verified it, so I naturally can't believe it easily, so I patted the Qiankun bag and released Xiao Hei.
"Xiao Hei, you try it first to see if this ghost technique has any effect."
I stroked Xiao Hei's head and said to him.
Xiao Hei nodded, turned to the first page, and started practicing according to the diagram above. After a while, black clouds appeared above its head, and its body seemed much more solid than before.
"How's it going? Is it effective?"
I looked at Xiao Hei's changes and asked in a deep voice.
Xiao Hei nodded violently and let out a burst of cheerful laughter.
"Haha, okay, I'll let you practice hard when we get back!"
I laughed twice, let Xiao Hei return to the path of heaven and earth, and put away the secret book of ghost arts.
"Senior, thank you very much!"
I cupped my hands and said to Taoist Master Xuan Ming.
"Netherworld Ghost Infant, boy, it seems I have underestimated you after all!"
After Taoist Master Xuanming saw Xiao Hei, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes, and then said: "Okay, I have given you the secret book of ghost skills, now give me the antidote!"
"Wolfbane flower, there is no antidote."
I said calmly.
"What?"
Taoist priest Xuan Ming was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes filled with anger: "I think you are looking for death!"
"Senior, don't be impulsive, I haven't finished speaking yet!"
I smiled lightly: "Although Wolfsbane Flower is a highly poisonous plant, it can detoxify itself within three days."
"As long as you take a shower, change clothes, and have a good sleep after you go back, the toxins will disappear naturally."
"Asshole, you dare to play tricks on me!"
Taoist priest Xuan Ming was so angry that his whole body was shaking, and his fists were clenching.
"By the way, there is one more thing. Senior, you need to pay attention. If you are poisoned by the Wolfsbane Flower, you must not be angry. Otherwise, the toxin may invade the heart and cause cardiac arrest."
"Taoist Priest, please don't get angry!"
Taoist priest Xuan Ming was so angry that he was breathing heavily. He glared at me fiercely, turned around and left.
"Master, wait for me!"
The little girl glanced at me and then quickly chased Taoist Xuanming.
"It seems that I have to report to Master Kong'an immediately."
Watching Taoist Priest Xuanming leave, I said in a deep voice.
The strength of Taoist Master Xuanming is unfathomable. Even if Lonnie and I take action, we are not 100% sure of taking him down.
Otherwise, I would not just take away a secret book of ghost arts and let him go.
On the way back, I contacted Master Kongan and reported to her what happened here.
"This Taoist Master Xuanming is not only a potential candidate for the head of the Cangyun Sect, but also a strong competitor for the next president of the Yin and Yang Association. If this guy is elected as the president, it will cause subversive damage to the entire Yin and Yang world! "
After listening to my story, Master Kong'an's voice couldn't help but have a hint of solemnity.
"It seems that it is necessary to hold a Yin-Yang World Conference in the near future to finalize the candidate for the next Yin-Yang Association president as soon as possible. We must not allow a treacherous person like Xuan Ming to be elected!"
I nodded and continued: "Master Tai, the Soul-Calming Talisman you gave me before was too little. I have already used it. If we get to Qipou Mountain, I'm afraid there will be more trouble. I don't know if you can still do it." Help with some talismans or something..."
Since setting off this time, although I have consumed a Spirit-Suppressing Talisman, I have also gained a side of the Yin-Yang Road world and subdued a Huang San. Overall, it is a big gain.
But I also know that Mrs. Kongan has a lot of good things. If I don’t hurry up and gather some wool at this time, I will have no chance in the future.
"You kid, you are really greedy."
Master Kong'an sighed, and then said: "That's okay, I'll give you some more talismans."
"Close to Qipou Mountain, there is a desolate town called Tiantang Town. Many years ago, I suppressed an evil creature here and buried ten high-level Spirit Suppressing Talismans in the town. Their power is extraordinary."
"After you arrive in the town, you can first check whether the evil thing has been completely eliminated. If not, you can eliminate the evil thing first, and then you can take away the spirit-suppressing talismans."
"Master Tai, you really don't suffer at all."
I couldn't help curling my lips and said with some dissatisfaction.
Obviously, Master Kong'an ostensibly gave me the spirit-suppressing talisman, but she actually took the opportunity to ask me to help her complete the task of eliminating evil creatures.
"Why, don't you want to?"
Master Kong'an said in a cold tone through the phone.
"No, no, don't worry, Master, we will definitely complete your instructions!"
I quickly patted my chest and said as a guarantee.
"Well, if you encounter any difficulties, please contact me at any time."
Master Kong'an didn't say much, just gave a few instructions and hung up the phone.
After returning to the inn, we rested for a day and then continued towards Chipo Mountain the next day.
After walking for a full day, at sunset, a town finally appeared in front of us.
This town is very desolate, with not a single soul on the streets. Countless high-rise buildings that are under construction stand on both sides, and there are no lights inside.
"I didn't expect that there are so many properties in such a shabby place. Who would live here?"
Bai Ze glanced around, looking at the unfinished buildings, and couldn't help but sigh.
"It's better to find a place to stay first, and we can continue our journey tomorrow."
We stopped and walked, and soon we saw a hotel on the roadside with four big characters written on the light sign: Lido Hotel.
This is an old five-story residential building that seems to be close to being demolished. It stands alone in the wilderness. The lights in the room are not turned on, and it is full of a chilling atmosphere.
Will anyone come here to stay in this wilderness?
I had some doubts in my heart, but it was easy to find a place to stay, so let’s stay overnight for now. For us, finding Paradise Town first is the most important thing.
