Chapter 18 "Mountains and Seas" Taotie Chapter
In the fourth month of running the recycling bin, I encountered the biggest problem.

"Elder brother, which couple has left?" I asked tremblingly.

"I haven't done it yet, but I'm already clamoring to call the police." The senior brother scratched his head.

"We can't let them call the police. If the police come and see the glutton, something big will happen." I said.

"It seems that this matter can only be dealt with by the master." The senior brother said.

"Are you going? Or should I go?" I asked.

"I'll go, you go and stabilize the couple first." The senior brother said.

I nodded my head.

The recycling bin is built next to the Taoist temple.

It was the original branch and the home of the old glutton.

It was built by our ancestor Chongxu Zhenren.

I heard that this old glutton was also brought by him.

When I was seven years old, I was so happy when I first heard that Taotie was in our gym.

Seeing the old Taoist's appearance, I really don't believe that this is an ancient ferocious beast.

As soon as the big black ball deflated, I thought it was a lie.

But this black leather ball really eats anything, so I kept it like a dog.

But there are fewer and fewer people in the Taoist temple, and the leftovers are not enough to feed the gluttons.

The glutton became smaller and smaller, and finally he was only the size of a ball, and he couldn't hold his breath.

But fortunately, after the completion of this recycling station, the old glutton is now half the size of a house.

The conversation had gone too far, and at this moment the couple was still standing outside the recycling bin, cursing.

I gently opened the door a crack.

The couple's voices came over.

“Is your recycling station shameless?”

"We all said that the diamond ring was thrown into the trash can, and we didn't ask you to help. We went in to look for it ourselves, why can't we do it?"

“Do you want to take the recycling bin for yourself?”

"Open the door for me."

The couple seemed to have seen the crack in the door I opened, and rushed over and started pushing the door open.

Omg.

I held the door tightly.

My training in Taoist boxing was not in vain. I pushed the latch on the door with difficulty.

Then he leaned against the door panting, and heard the couple's roar and the wooden door being knocked.

"If you don't come out again, we'll call the police."

"I can't believe the police don't care about this."

"Old man, call the police."

"Okay, I'll call now."

I was so frightened that I immediately shouted: "Wait a minute."

"Wait? How long should we wait? Just now we were told that we couldn't get it back, and now we are still being asked to wait."

When I was in a state of despair, my senior brother ran over.

"Junior brother, the master asked you to go to his place. Leave the affairs here to me, don't worry." The senior brother said.

I nodded my head.

I watched the senior brother happily open the door to others with a smile on his face.

this?Do we have money to compensate others?

Wait, this diamond ring costs 5000 yuan?Master's private money?

I ran to the master's bedroom with doubts.

Just when he was about to speak to understand, the master said: "Goudan, you have been coming to our Taoist temple for a few years, right?"

I nodded my head and said, "Master brought me here for 23 years."

"This time, the couple said they threw the diamond ring into the trash can when they were throwing away the trash. This trash has been eaten by Taotie a long time ago. Is there anything you can do?" the master said.

I shook my head: "I have no choice. Master must be smart and think of it."

"It was you who came up with the idea of ​​this recycling bin. Now if something happens, will you be responsible for it?" the master said.

I nodded my head and then shook it vigorously.

"No, master, I can't be entirely blamed for this." I said.

"Master has an idea now, but he needs your help." said the master.

idea?help?
"Master? You don't want me to get into my stomach, do you?" I said.

"Goudan, you are talented and smart. You really knew what Master was thinking at once. This diamond ring was just eaten by the glutton. It must not be deep, so it shouldn't be difficult to find it." The master said.

"Master, I went in. Is it possible to come out?" I asked.

"You don't have to worry about this, I have a treasure for you," the master said.

"Baby?" I looked at the master.

The master fished for a long time from his waist and took out a small red money bag.

I started to open the little red money bag and pulled out the thread.

"Master? What are you doing? Why did you open your wallet?" I asked.

"You don't understand. This money bag is made of the legendary fairy binding rope passed down to me by my master. Take it out, tie you up, and then put it into Taotie's mouth. Pull the thread for the master, and when the time comes, pull it Come out." The master said.

"Is this really reliable?" I said.

"You don't believe what I said, master? Oops, it's broken." The master said, secretly throwing the broken thread behind him.

Watching the master remove the red rope again.

I said anxiously: "Can I use an iron chain? I don't trust this red rope."

"Idiot, the immortal rope is tens of thousands of times more useful than the iron chain." The master said

"Master, am I not even worth 5000 yuan in your eyes?" I asked.

The master nodded his head and said: "Yes, you... Bah, bah, bah, I'm telling you. As long as you come back safely this time, I guarantee it. After I abdicate, the position of the Guanzhang will be yours now."

"Why don't I feel a little bit appointed?" I looked at the master and said.

"Okay, come with me to find the old man." After the master said that, he held the red rope that he had taken out.

Recycle Bin, innermost.

The senior brother is already here at this time.

I understood something immediately.

I asked: "Elder brother, where is that couple?"

The senior brother immediately smiled and said: "I've done it. I made a sign and said I would help them find it. I asked them to come over in the afternoon, and they agreed."

I nodded my head, but I saw the master tied a red rope around my body.

A half circle wrapped around the waist.

The master said: "Okay, should I push you or should you go in by yourself?"

"Here? Can you tie it up again? Or give me another chain?" I said anxiously.

At this time, the Taotie in front of him had already opened his big mouth and was waiting.

"They'll be here in the afternoon, what are you waiting for?" the master said, turning me around and kicking me in the butt.

A strong suction pulled me.

I'm in a coma.

"Master, can junior brother come back after going here? Is the red rope so thin?" Senior Brother asked.

"The devil knows." said the master.

"Then you still let junior brother go?" Senior Brother said anxiously.

"Hundreds of years ago, our great-great-grandmaster relied on this red thread to rescue a child from Taotie's belly. Then he tied Taotie's mouth with a red rope and brought him back to our Taoist temple. Later everyone knew We have this precious bundle of fairy rope in our Taoist temple. It was our uncle Zeng who made this bundle of fairy rope into a money bag to escape the disaster. It is passed down from generation to generation. If the thing is not fake, the junior brother can come back. Anyway, he is an orphan. . If he really disappears, he will not be discovered. Then we can find an excuse to say that he ran away with the diamond ring, wouldn't it be enough?" the master said.

"Master, isn't this inappropriate?" the senior brother said.

"Li Goudan was originally picked up by my master. At that time, he insisted that this child had Tiangen. But after so many years of eating so much food and spending so much money, the only idea that came to mind was this recycling station. I was counting on it. We relied on this idea to recover our capital, but we still lost half of our family property. This Taoist temple is still mortgaged, what can I do?" said the master.

"But..." Senior Brother said.

"But what? Are you afraid that you just hold this thread and pull it back in two hours?" After saying this, the master turned around and left.

The senior brother nodded helplessly and took the red rope thrown on the ground.

. . . . . .

When I woke up it was dark.

I thought about what was happening.

He touched the red rope around his waist, but one end of the rope was connected in the air.

It worked?Am I in the belly of a glutton?
Gourmet?correct.

I'm going to find a diamond ring.

But in front of us was a deserted place.Where's the stuff?
"Where's the food that came in?" I shouted to the surrounding people who were watching.

Nothing at all.

"I've sorted everything. I didn't expect it. Living animals haven't come here in hundreds of years, but two came today."

???

what sound?
I look around.

At this time, an old man with white hair and a childish face floated above him in the sky.

I took out the sachet on my waist from my pocket.

I open the sachet.

Inside are five Taoist talismans.

I immediately threw it into the air.

Those who are approaching the battle are arrayed in front to punish evil spirits.

Five Taoist talismans were burning in the air.

But nothing happened to the old man in front of him.

The old man looked at it and said, "I am an immortal but not evil. How can you kill me? Don't worry, I won't hurt you."

I stared at the old man in the sky in a daze. I have recited those Taoist charms every day since I started practicing.

You have been following me for more than ten years, and you are all doing the right thing.No matter how bad it is, thunder and lightning can be summoned, but it will be of no use at all.

I said in a panic: "Who on earth are you!"

"I'm a glutton," the old man said.

"You? Taotie? Don't lie to me. Isn't Taotie a big black ball?" I said.

"That's my Qiankun Qi bag you're talking about?" the old man said.

"Qiankun Yiqi bag? Budai monk?" I said.

"Monk, I'm an immortal." The old man said.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"I haven't seen any intelligent living creatures here for a hundred years, and you can't get out anyway. I can just have a chat with you and tell me what it's like outside now," the old man said.

"You said you are a glutton?" I said.

"The dragon gave birth to nine sons, and I am the fifth glutton." said the old man.

"How to prove it?" I asked.

"I have been cultivating a human body for thousands of years, and I have been enlightened and enlightened for thousands of years. It's ridiculous, why do I have to prove myself?" the old man said.

"You said you are a god, why are you locked up here?" I asked.

"You're an interesting kid. I became an immortal thousands of years ago. I was originally a dragon, and my body was strong enough. Naturally, I looked for a more powerful way, and I discovered the magic weapon Qiankun Qi Bag. This bag can open its mouth to swallow the sky and accommodate all things. It was silent. But when I was using it, I tripped over the bag and fell into the bag," the old man said.

Hahaha, I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Why are you laughing? Ever since I couldn't get out of my bag, I started to move by the bag because I couldn't see. I could only swallow everything I encountered randomly. I would classify the things I sucked in. As for me, I am a glutton. Ferocious beast. I heard it from those who came in later, but unfortunately no one can break my anger bag." The old man said.

"Classification?" I said.

"Yes, we have been classifying things in this bag according to their value and material for thousands of years. Wait, what is this on you?" the old man said.

"On me?" I looked at the red line on my waist.

"Who are you the son of an old friend? I am very familiar with this red rope." The old man said.

"Old friend?" I asked.

"There once was a mortal who came into my bag. He had a very pleasant conversation with me, and took a child with him when he left. And that mortal, like you, had a red string around his waist," the old man said.

"Red rope? Save the child? Has anyone gone out from here? Or do you rely on my red rope?" I said.

The old man nodded.

I related what the old man said, the old man is a glutton.

I have been cultivating myself from a dragon to a human being, and now I am cultivating myself from a human being to an immortal.

But he was sucked in by his own magical weapon, the Qiankun Qi Bag.

Still sucking things that hit me in the bag.

The gluttonous food rolling around outside was actually just a bag?
Rolling black on the ground?Became a big black ball?
And the real Taotie is the old man in the black ball!

"What do you want?" I said.

"Since I am an old friend, I will definitely not embarrass you. I can also look at your face. Your appearance is dark," the old man said.

"Can you read faces?" I said
"I understand a little bit," the old man said.

"Is there a way to solve it?" I asked.

"Although you have three souls and seven souls, they are all extremely weak. One soul is even on the verge of collapse. It's a coincidence. My soul is useless to me here. I just happened to practice from dragon to human, and I got a few extra dragon souls. I am destined to be with you, so I will pass this message on to you." The old man said.

"So good?" I said.

"It's useless to say more, so why not give it to you?" After the old man said this, a golden light scattered out.

Golden light suddenly shot into my body.

My whole body trembled and I felt refreshed.

"By the way, glutton... uh. I'm sorry, sage. Did you see a diamond ring?" I said.

"What is a diamond ring?" the old man said.

"Here, has anything valuable been sucked in recently?" I said?

"Is it worth anything? The past few hundred years have been full of leftovers and rubbish. I wonder what's going on in the outside world, and there's no living person telling me what happened." The old man said.

My face is slightly red, and I let the glutton eat garbage every day.Of course there are only these things.

"Well, this is the treasure I have received over the past thousand years." The old man spread his left hand.

Suddenly, pieces of exquisite artifacts appeared in front of me.

shit.

The dragon head, rabbit head, plaster statue and Gundam figure in the Twelve Bronze Heads?
The heart of the ocean, gems of every color and glass marbles?
What the hell, all kinds of oil paintings, erotic pictures and magazine comics?
Bronze mirror, glass mirror and CD plate?

Bells on game consoles, computers and bike handlebars?
My first reaction was that this old foodie didn’t know his stuff, but then I thought about it.I don’t know what the outside world is like, so these things might really be treasures.

"How about it? My collection?" the old man said.

"Uh, okay. It's something like glass. Have you seen it today?" I pointed to the smallest marble and said.

I wonder if I will not be noticed by the gluttons because I am too young.

"No, what I came in with you today was just leftovers. There were also glass bottles. They were all garbage. I can't remember." The old man said.

"No baby?" I asked.

"By the way, there is another living creature. This guy wants to hold the gem, but it's too small." After speaking, the old man stretched out his hand.

In his hand is the ring.

"This is my ring," I said.

"It's obviously a living creature," the old man said.

"Living creature?" I was stunned.

At this time, the ring on the old man's hand actually moved from head to tail, like a bug made of gems.

"What on earth is this?" I asked.

"I don't know this one, but I know it's a living thing." After the old man said it, he pinched it and the insect turned into a ring again.

"Can I get it back?" I asked.

"I can never get in or out of here. You have his red rope on you to get out. I can't control it, but don't even think about it," the old man said.

"What about changing with you?" I said.

"Change?" the old man asked.

I took out the small Bagua mirror from my sleeve, thinking that this thing would definitely be able to scare people.

The old man waved his hand and looked at it for a long time.

"It's a good thing, but this living thing can't chat with me. I'll trade it with you." The old man said and waved his hand.

The ring flew towards me and I immediately grabbed it.

I chatted with the old man for a long time and told him many modern things.

The old man was surprised and shocked.

I taught the old man how to play the game console and told him that the thunder can be recharged.

The old man was really happy, and suddenly I felt a pull.

Master wants to drag me out?I was dragged out bit by bit.

I cupped my hands and said, "Let's go. I'll come back to see you when I have time."

"No need, everything depends on fate." The old man said.

"Taotie, you can come with me. Like a child being taken away?" I said.

"Although I cultivated my human form and became an immortal, my true body was too heavy, and my old friend couldn't bring me out that time. Let alone a junior like you. If you really have this ability, it won't be too late to come find me again. "The old man smiled and waved to me.

A tug and a spin.

I fell into coma again.
