Chapter 202 201 Taoist Priest
There is no one living in the southeast of Lingxiang Town.

There is a huge pool in the southeast. In previous years, whenever there was a flood, the water in the pool would definitely flood the surrounding homes.

As a result, the families who used to live next to the waterhole also moved away early.

Therefore, there is only one temple located there.

However, the people in Lingxiang Town were not very firm about gods and Buddhas. They had their own beliefs, so the temple gradually fell into ruin.

Shen Niannian once asked what their beliefs were.

But no answer was given. These people are always mysterious about their beliefs.

But Shen Niannian felt that maybe she could figure out this mystery tonight.

She followed Li You all the way.

Li Youwu looked left and right, looking back and forth many times. It wasn't until the Li family's courtyard gradually disappeared from sight that he felt a little calmer.

Li You climbed halfway up the mountain, panting from exhaustion. Dark clouds covered the sun tonight, and everything was gloomy.

As expected, Li You arrived at the door of the ruined temple. The door of the ruined temple had long been damaged and was open at this time.

The sound of wind whining in the mountains makes people feel a bit creepy.

But Li You patrolled back and forth again. After confirming that no one was there, he suddenly stretched out his hand and knocked on the wooden door of the ruined temple.

"Dong dong dong."

"Dong dong."

There was a total of silent knocks, as if they were counting the rhythm or a secret signal.

There was silence for a moment.

The mountain breeze passed by, and suddenly, the sound of soft footsteps came from inside the temple.

Shen Niannian and Pang Qiu hid on one side, and soon saw someone walking out of the temple.

Under the dim light, I could only vaguely see the tall and straight figure of the man, who seemed to be holding something in his hand.

Shen Niannian and Fat Ball looked at each other again and were about to take two steps closer.

But they saw the man approaching from far away, walking towards their direction.

The footsteps approached, and they could see the man's face clearly.

He is a Taoist priest in his forties or fifties, with a fairly decent appearance.

Different from the monks in the world of cultivating immortals, the Taoist priests in the mortal world wear the same style of Taoist robes, hold a whisk in their hands, and look quite immortal.

In the dim light, Shen Niannian could clearly see the color of his Taoist robe.

It's a green robe.

Mortal Taoist priests are classified into different levels by their Taoist robes. Yellow Taoist robes are worn by the most prestigious and famous Taoist priests.

And this green robe is ranked fifth.

You know, among mortal Taoist priests, ranking fifth is already considered powerful, not to mention that this Taoist priest is just one in a small town.

While she was meditating, the Taoist priest in green's eyes had already fallen on her and Fat Ball.

But there was nothing strange about his face. Fat Ball was frightened, for fear of being recognized.

Especially when it saw that Shen Niannian was right under the nose of the Qingyi Taoist priest and still so calm, it became even more anxious.

It didn't know what it was worried about. Maybe it was because the night was too frightening, or maybe Shen Niannian's green grass was just too arrogant.

But fortunately, the Taoist priest in green only looked at it for a moment, then turned around and turned back.

Shen Niannian communicated with Fatty Ball and said, "Don't worry, my soul is out of body. Even the Yuanying monk can't detect it, let alone a mere mortal Taoist priest?"

She left her body early in the morning and transformed into an ordinary Cao'er.

Undoubtedly, tracking in this capacity is the most secure.

Fat Ball nodded, then fluttered his wings and disappeared into the grass like an ordinary moth or butterfly.

On the other end, the Taoist priest in green walked up to Li You. His back was to Shen Niannian and Pang Qiu, and his voice was slightly hoarse. "Mr. Li comes to seek poverty at night. What's the big deal?"

"Taoist Master, help me." Li You looked panicked and anxious, and his words were slightly confused: "There is a demon. I rescued a demon two days ago. I wanted to sell the demon to the Xiao family, but I didn't expect it. She is a monster!"

This is a bit confusing.

The green-robed Taoist priest twirled his beard and walked towards the temple with a calm expression.

"Mr. Li, come in with me and take a few sips of requiem before talking."

When Li You heard this, he followed the Taoist priest in Qingyi into the temple.

The temple door, which was originally wide open, closed itself in the absence of wind.

Shen Niannian and Fatty Ball looked at each other and immediately moved with lightning speed to penetrate into the temple through the crack in the door.

The temple door was closed heavily, and everything inside the temple was isolated from the wind outside the temple.

The inside of the temple is dark, with haystacks and dust everywhere, but if you walk inside, walk around the Buddha statue in the temple, and go back, you will see a secret door.

Inside the secret door, there is another world.

It was a dark room with a slightly messy furnishing. There were a total of two tables and four wooden benches.

On the table in the middle, a candlestick was lit. Next to the candlestick was a wine jug and three cups.

One of the cups was filled with water, which was obviously drunk by the Taoist priest in green just now.

The other table was long and there were many wine gourds on it. Shen Niannian counted them carefully, there were twelve in total.

At this time, the Taoist priest in green walked to the long table and took one of the wine gourds.

Then he returned to the Sifang table, picked up a broken cup that was upside down, and poured Li You a glass of wine.

Li You didn't seem to be polite and drank the glass of wine in one gulp almost greedily.

He licked his dry lips with unsatisfied intention, and his eyes fell on the wine gourd.

"Don't be too greedy for requiem wine." The faint voice of the Taoist priest in green sounded: "Don't accidentally fall into the endless hell."

His words made Li You shiver.

His mind cleared up a bit, and he quickly moved his eyes away from the wine gourd.

Fat Ball communicated with Shen Niannian and said, "That wine is weird, it tastes so fragrant."

"It is indeed not an ordinary wine." Shen Niannian's eyes fell on the row of wine: "It seems that these wines also have other uses."

These wines, even if they are not opened, still exude a strange aroma.

After Li You came to his senses, he hurriedly told the whole thing from the beginning.

When the Taoist priest heard what Li You said, he didn't reproach him at all for 'selling' Shen Niannian.

This made Fat Ball snort and said that this Taoist priest was not a good person and was the same as Li You.

When Li Yuan heard what happened after Shen Niannian transformed into a vine, the Taoist priest's expression changed drastically.

"Oops!" he said, "You have been plotted by her!"

The Taoist priest in green stood up, opened the secret door, and looked around outside the temple.

But he couldn't find any trace of Shen Niannian. He held the talisman in his hand, chanted the curse and raised the dust, but still no trace of anyone was seen.

This shocked and confused Li You until the Taoist priest in green frowned and turned back into the secret door.

Li Youcai asked him: "What did the Taoist priest discover?"

The Taoist priest in green lowered his eyes and said, "Perhaps it's just that the poor Taoist is overthinking it."

Li You was relieved when he heard this.

He asked again: "Taoist Priest, what do you think we should do about this? If the Xiao family is really eaten by her, then Mrs. Xiao..."
