Chapter 38

"Okay, I don't want gold anymore. I just treat this money as my reward for saving you." As I spoke, I lowered my head and put my money bag in my pocket, but suddenly I found that my body could not move, and my hand holding the money bag stopped in mid-air.

"How could this happen?!" I wanted to shout in horror, but I couldn't speak out no matter how hard I struggled without any effect. All joints were like glued, and even my fingers could not move at all.

After more than ten seconds, the feeling disappeared without warning, and my body regained its ability to move. "You----" I raised my head in horror and stared at the old man, and found that he was breathing rapidly, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and his face was not bloody at all, pale like a dead face, as if he had just run a full marathon.

At this time, the old man was also staring at me, holding back his breath and saying, "How is it? My 'Still Immortal Art' tastes pretty good. If you dare to take my money again, I will always be here, and I will never move a step in my life."

I doubt that this old Taoist could only hold me back for more than ten seconds at most, but this was enough for him to come and cut me a few times. The first time I experienced the legendary spell myself, I felt very frightened and surprised, and at the same time, I was still thinking about how to deal with the situation in front of me.

Seeing that I didn't say anything, the old Taoist took the opportunity to breathe heavily, and finally breathed evenly. First, he snatched the money bag from my hand, and then said with a kind look, "Young man, I see that you have a wonderful bones and a talent for cultivation. Why don't you be your teacher? I will teach you the magical technique of moving mountains and filling the seas and flying and hiding the earth." "Can you move mountains and filling the seas and still fly and hiding the earth? If you had such ability, you would have flew away long ago. How could someone chase the mountain and run around like a rabbit?" I replied disdainfully, but I had accepted this proposal in my heart. After all, I know nothing about the world, and it is better for someone to lead them to rush around alone.

"I just don't want to scare those ignorant villagers, so I didn't use spells." The old Taoist returned to his master's appearance, "Then fly to me now." "Spirits cannot be used easily." "Shit!" I raised my middle finger at the old man.

Obviously, the old Taoist did not understand the meaning of this gesture, so he ignored it at all. He just said to me, "Pack up the bag and leave here with me."

"Don't be a teacher" and "teacher". I can go with you, but I still have to consider being an apprentice for you." I turned my head while packing up the bags on the ground and said, "You can wait slowly for the teacher." "Did you hear that? I haven't worshipped you as a master yet?" "You don't mind the etiquette of the world." "You are not allowed to call yourself a 'teacher'!" "You know, I have no choice but to mutter in a low voice, "You can do whatever you want, I will only call you 'old man' anyway."

The sky gradually darkened, and I left the village with the old man with my bag, "Old man, where are we going?" "Leave here first, let's talk about your origin", "Tell me about your origin", "Be the master of the Primitive Heavenly Lord, who came to save the people from the world-----" "Tell the truth!" I immediately interrupted the old man's humiliation, "Be the master of the 'Peeing Heaven', the master of the Taoist priest," "I'll tell you the truth!" I almost yelled, "This is the truth." The old man glanced at me helplessly.

"Okay, I just think you are telling the truth, then tell me what kind of Taoist sect is 'Peeping Heaven'? Is it very powerful?" I continued to ask, "'Peeping Heaven' is good at divination, divination, and glimpse the secrets of heaven. Although it is not considered a domineering world, it was also a famous sect that everyone respected back then. However, now the spiritual energy of this world is exhausted, and 'Peeping Heaven' has gradually declined like other cultivation sects. Alas!" When he said this, the old man sighed heavily.

"How many people are there in the 'Peering Heaven' now?" I asked curiously, "There are only two people left." "You have accepted an apprentice before?" "I have accepted it, but I am dead." "You have a senior brother, junior brother, senior sister, junior sister?" "No." "So your master is still alive?" "No." "Why are there two people left? Who else is there in the 'Peering Heaven' now?" "And you|" the old man said while pointing at my nose.

"It turns out that you are the only one who is left in this 'Spying Heaven', and you are still embarrassed to call yourself the head teacher." "The difficulties are only temporary, and the 'Spying Heaven' will definitely be carried forward in the future, so the burden on your shoulders is very heavy." The old man looked at me earnestly.

"You-----" I was speechless, and I didn't know what to say, so I had to change the topic. "How did the apprentice you accepted before died?" "Poisoned fell from the cliff and was burned by fire and bitten by the devil." "Your apprentice's vitality is too strong, it's so difficult to die once." "I'm not talking about one person." "How many apprentices have you accepted?" "Please let me think about it." After saying that, the old man started to sway his fingers, muttering silently, "The first apprentice is called Song Huaiyu, the second apprentice is called Wei Gang, and then ------" After breaking the fingers of the left hand, he changed to his right hand.

I stood aside and watched his movements thrillingly. The old man stopped until the next finger was left with his right hand. "You have taken nine apprentices?" I asked in surprise, "Hmm!" "All dead?" "Hmm." "Isn't even one survived?!" "Hmm."

I really don't know what to say. I stared at the old man for a long time before asking again, "What are you doing? Is fortune telling such a big risk?" "I can only say that their lives are not good. The longest one followed me for about a year, and the shortest one died in less than three days." "Look how long can I live with you? One year or three days?" "You have a full heaven and a rosy face. You are a blessed person at first." "Okay! Okay!" I stopped the old man's nonsense and said, "Don't say anything, I'll be careful." "I think you should be fine. As the saying goes, nine of them have died in 'Nine-Death', so you should live one." The old man looked at me with a little guilty conscience.

His eyes made me feel a little scared and wanted to leave, but there was really no place to go, so I had to go out and even went to the underworld. What else could I have to fear?

After calming down, I remembered Qian Chuanzi again. Although I knew that the old man was talking about running the train, I still had a trace of expectation in my heart. This was a rush to seek medical treatment.

"I have a good brother who fell into the river in front and was washed downstream by the river. Since you are so capable, please help me calculate how he is now." "And there is such a thing? When did it happen?" "It was a while ago," I replied vaguely. Because I don't know how long I have been in the underworld, I can't determine how long it has been since I fell into the water. "Where did I fall into the water? Why didn't I save people at that time?" "Old man, your curiosity is too heavy. Don't ask so many questions, hurry up and tell me a fortune." I said simply.

"Okay," the old man agreed helplessly, then his eyes closed, and his hands began to calculate quickly. His movements were very skillful, and I was dazzled. Suddenly I thought of a question, but seeing the old man's concentration, I had to hold back first. I waited until the old man stopped the movement of his hand. I asked, "I heard that the name and birth date of the person involved need to be used when divining, you started to tell fortunes without asking anything, aren't you fooling me?" "That's right---" the old man was stunned for a moment, but then he returned to calm. "That's just a low-level divination method. A master-level figure like a master doesn't need to do that at all. You just need to use mountains, rivers and rivers to see the secrets of heaven, and you can know everything that happened in the world."

Looking at the old man's mysterious appearance, I actually believed it a little, "Then tell me how is my brother now?" "You brother should have such a disaster. If you survive a great disaster, you will definitely have a blessing in the future." "The disaster has happened, you don't need to say this. I just want to know whether he is dead or not?" "I hope he has a heavenly appearance." "Is it dead or not?" "All things are destined to be as fate." "Can there be a correct statement?" "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed."

"Damn!" I knew I was fooled again, so I immediately raised my middle finger to the old man and said angrily, "What are you 'sighting on the way of heaven'? How dare you say that you can peek at the secrets of heaven? I think you can only peek at women for a bath." "Young people just like impulsiveness." The old man looked at me calmly, completely ignorant, you are childish, I don't know the same as you, so I really can't say anything else, but I still feel a little confused in my heart, so I said to the old man, "I want to go down the river to find my brother now." After that, he walked towards the river with a bun, but he didn't expect that the old man would follow him directly without any obstacles.

After walking down the river for two days, I met a village during this period. I immediately rushed into the village and asked if I had seen a fat man. After all, in this world where all the people are thin, Qian Chuanzi's body shape is really too conspicuous.

At first, the villagers were very alert to me and refused to say anything. After I took out a piece of corn cake without wild vegetables, their attitude immediately became extremely enthusiastic, just like seeing relatives, but it turned out to be very disappointed. I have never seen strangers in the village or in the river these days, let alone fat people, not even thin people.

After leaving the village, I felt a little disappointed, but the old man's expression became even more gloomy. At first I thought he was sad for me, but soon I realized that this was not the case at all.
