Beipai Tomb Raiders Notes

Chapter 552: The Dao of the Taoist Priest in Jianghu

The Rescuer of Suffering rolled on the ground like a ball for more than ten times. Even the young Shit Impermanence could not withstand the power of this kick, let alone the elderly and dying Rescuer of Suffering.

The crazy Taoist priest stood in the dark and looked up at the moon.

There was no sound around at once.

It was eerily quiet.

The crazy Taoist priest had a determined look in his eyes. He then walked up to the two old twins and stepped on one of them's head.

"Wait a minute!!"

Shit Wuchang rushed over and shouted, "Their Qigong has been broken! If we kill them, we will be completely and mortally enemies with the Changchun Society! As the saying goes, show mercy when you can! In this competition, on behalf of the Changchun Society, I personally admit defeat!"

After saying this, Shit Wuchang made a gesture. He knelt down on his knees, touched his forehead to the ground, stretched out his hands forward, and palms facing upwards.

"Although you don't practice Taoism, you are learning Taoist skills. Do you know what my Taoism is all about?"

"I don't know!" Shit Wuchang didn't even dare to raise his head.

Instantly! The sound of bones breaking could be heard clearly in the quiet of the night. The crazy Taoist priest broke the man's neck with one foot.

"what!!"

The other of the twin old men stood up in a rage! His eyes flashed red, and he gathered all his strength and punched the crazy Taoist priest in the face!

The next second, his fist was clenched tightly.

The crazy Taoist priest hit the man's jaw with a backhand palm, dislocating it. Then he put his five fingers together and stuffed his entire hand into the man's mouth like a blade.

A sharp pull.

The scene was bloody, and blood fell like rain in an instant!

Shit Wuchang's face turned pale and he slowly closed his eyes.

The Crazy Taoist's hands were covered in blood. He looked at Shit Wuchang and said, "My Tao is to follow one's heart and follow nature. If I listen to your advice and don't kill them today, I will be unhappy."

"I won't kill you, but you will pay for your actions. That female lay Buddhist lost her soul because of you. No one in the world can save her. You'll have to take care of yourself."

After saying that, the crazy Taoist priest pulled off the long fir and threw it casually, just covering the faces of the twin old men.

"Ah—I'm a little tired."

The crazy Taoist priest stretched hard with his bare chest and walked forward.

The moonlight shone down, as if he was wearing a white robe.

It wasn't until the man walked to the end of the street and disappeared that I reacted. Looking in the direction where the crazy Taoist priest left, a poem suddenly emerged in my mind.

"Crazy steps tread on the moon, sword covered with frost, blood-splattered talismans fly and break through all obstacles, robes roll up and the remaining stars return to the crane shadow, the murderous intention is even more shimmering with purple light."

Zhuge Qing tried every possible means, but ultimately failed to achieve his goal of getting rid of the mad Taoist priest. Instead, all the Changchun Society masters except Shit Wuchang were slaughtered, and no one survived.

This time, the Changchun Society was wrong, and so was Zhuge Qing. In the face of absolute strength, the word "game" seemed to have no place. Since the 30th year of the Guangxu Emperor's reign, the Changchun Society had dominated the martial arts world for over a hundred years. This time, they had provoked someone they shouldn't, if the Crazy Taoist Priest could still be considered a "human."

Looking at the mess on the ground, Shit Wuchang looked completely distraught.

"You knew it a long time ago."

"No, I only found out during the day."

"Do you believe what he says?"

"I believe."

"I don't believe it! There are no ghosts in this world! What he said about Yuyu is all nonsense! He is mentally ill to begin with!"

I raised my hand and slapped Shit Wuchang.

"You're the one who's abnormal!"

"If you hadn't taken the initiative to join the Changchun Association in persecuting Master Ma a few days ago, the situation wouldn't be like this now!"

"You're so arrogant! So smart! You think you can control everything! But the result is that you can't control anything at all! You were even used by Zhuge Qing! And you indirectly harmed my little aunt!"

"The Taoist priest said she'll never wake up again! No one in the world can save her! She's become a vegetable! She's completely dead! This is all your fault!"

"You didn't obey orders this time! Even if the guild doesn't punish you, Zhuge Qing has definitely lost his trust in you! Your self-proclaimed loyalty is about to be worthless! You're a nobody!"

Shit Wuchang's face turned pale, and his teeth were gritting. "No... all this is not caused by me, it's not caused by me... it's not me..."

I took a deep breath and said, "Listen up! I'm not going to argue with you about this now. It's pointless and won't change the situation. The most urgent thing now is to deal with this place."

"How...how to deal with it."

"What else can we do? Hide the body first! No one can see it."

I don’t know what happened to Dr. Song. This place is not far from the clinic. I plan to hide the body in the underground secret room of the clinic.

Just then, a bright light suddenly appeared in the distance.

It was a car, and I was so scared that I immediately hid myself while shitting.

I thought to myself, I’m doomed. There hasn’t been a car all night, so how come a car comes at this time?

As the distance got closer, I saw that it was a white van without a license plate.

Two people got out of the car. I didn't know them and had never seen them before. Without saying a word, they carried the body into the car as quickly as possible, then closed the door and drove away. The whole process, from their appearance to their departure, took no more than three minutes.

"Is he one of yours?"

"I don't know, maybe."

Glancing at the direction the van left, I frowned and said, "We can't stay here for long. Let's go to the clinic first."

Shit Wuchang suddenly grabbed my hand and asked, "Where's Yuyu?"

I was stunned and then I remembered that before we came here, we had handed the little aunt over to the care of the Rescue Master.

We both ran back to the alley where we were before as fast as we could, but it was empty.

Shit Wuchang panicked and ran around to look for it.

Ten minutes later, we met.

Shit Wuchang punched the wall.

I frowned and said, "Don't panic, stay calm. The little aunt will definitely not leave on her own. There are two possibilities right now."

"First, the old monk hid her somewhere nearby, and we couldn't find her. Second, the old monk didn't care about her at all. After we left, another group of people secretly took her away."

"If it's the second possibility, then the people who took her away might be the same group that ordered the car just now. They might be from the Changchun Society or the Puppet Society."

At this moment, I suddenly heard light footsteps and turned around immediately.

In the darkness, a dark shadow was walking towards us.

I reached out to stop Shit Wuchang and watched the black shadow getting closer and closer.

A pair of cloth shoes, a tight Zhongshan suit, and a clean white face mask.

Heaving a sigh of relief, I said, "I thought it was either the Changchun Society or the Puppet Society, but I didn't expect... it was you, Sect Master."

"Where is she?" Shit Wuchang asked, staring at the other person's mask.

"Don't worry, she's in a safe place and is being taken care of. If you still want to see her, you need to promise me one thing."

"explain!"

"It's very simple. I just need you to tell the world that you killed everyone. Those gatekeepers, He Weiwu, and Bing Ye all died at your hands. You did this because you were dissatisfied with the Changchun Society."

Shit Wuchang frowned.

My face changed instantly.

"Yes! I promise!"

"Have you ever thought about what the consequences would be for you if you agreed to this?"

"I don't have to think, I just want fish."

"Okay, I'll contact you in three days."

"etc!!"

I chased after him and asked, "Master, why are you doing this? The people of Jing Sect are all upright and honest. If you threaten and frame him like this, Shi Wuchang will undoubtedly become a traitor. He will never be able to gain a foothold in the martial arts world again."

The eyes beneath the mask were distinctly black and white, clear and bright. He looked at me and said, "There's no one in this world who is completely clean. With something this serious happening, it's impossible to conceal it. All parties involved in the martial arts world need a reasonable explanation. Since the day we were formed, we at Jing Clan have had the responsibility to maintain the stability of the martial arts world."

"Then you should tell the truth and tell everyone that it was the Crazy Taoist Priest who did it!"

"The truth is simple, how could you not understand? People in Jianghu only know him as the one who buried the corpse of Zheng Daqiang. How many people know who Taoist Ma is?"

"The Changchun Society, the Puppet Society, and the Old Martial Arts Society will still be there. It's just that some people are gone. I will temporarily take over the position of president of the Old Martial Arts Society."

I smiled bitterly after hearing this: "Haha... In the end, I didn't expect that you, Sect Master, would become the biggest beneficiary. You gained a good reputation, and took advantage of the situation to weaken the strength of the Changchun Society and the Puppet Society. You even became the president yourself, holding the real power in your hands."

The other person's face hidden under the mask cannot be seen.

He looked at me with his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "I've said it before, everything has its destiny, man proposes, God disposes."
