Taoist Master wants to live forever

Chapter 499: Wonderful Other World
Wen Lianggong thanked him and took it. After putting it on, he slightly tied up his hair. Hu Asheng's eyes lit up when he saw it.

I originally thought that this young man was as handsome as Pan An, but it seemed that he was even more outstanding.

Seeing this, Hu Asheng was about to say something, but he sighed again and said, "It seems that this young man does not look like he is from a poor family. He has red lips and white teeth. His skin is not like ours, it is very white and delicate. He also has money on him. I wonder where did it come from?"

Wen Lianggong certainly didn't know about this, he could only use a little magic and a little trick to get an identity.

"Yuzhou is indeed miserable. I heard that this year the land is barren for thousands of miles. There has been severe drought for several years and no crops have been harvested. The current emperor is incompetent and only cares about having fun and enjoying himself, and doesn't care about the people. I heard from merchants that Yuzhou is now full of rebellions, and because there is no food, cannibalism has become a common occurrence."

Hu Asheng sighed a lot and finally revealed a lot of useful information.

The country we live in today is the Jing Dynasty. There are too many heavy taxes and levies, which are almost killing the lower-class people. They have rebelled one after another. Coupled with the invasion of the Dali Dynasty, the entire dynasty is in a precarious situation, with internal and external troubles, and has entered the end of the dynasty.

Wen Lianggong didn't feel much about this, he just said it calmly.

"When prosperity comes, the people suffer; when decline comes, the people suffer. This has been the case since ancient times."

Hu Asheng was stunned by what he heard, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He said in surprise: "Young man, you are educated. And you look like you, so you are most likely studying."

"Knowledge... sort of."

Hearing Wen Lianggong's admission, Hu Asheng, a rough man, naturally became much more respectful and even changed his way of addressing him to "Sir".

Wen Lianggong did not refuse and agreed. With his current knowledge, it would not be an exaggeration to call him "Sir".

In the next half day, under the leadership of Hu Asheng, they entered the seaside town called Wuzhen. Wen Lianggong then learned that Hu Asheng was the head of Wuzhen's village and a highly respected person. With Hu Asheng as a guarantee, Wen Lianggong naturally settled down in this town of no more than 10,000 people.

The small courtyard where he lived was close to the sea and was bought with the money he had.

Since then, I have settled down.

Wen Lianggong was neither anxious nor impatient. He quietly restored his magic power to promote the Eight-Nine Profound Art and slowly circulated the Indestructible Golden Body Scripture to mend the cracks on the Taoist platform in his body.

After decades of hard work, there are finally signs of recovery.

All day long, Wen Lianggong just went out for a stroll casually, causing the little girls to lower their heads and glance at him sideways, and many matchmakers also came to the door to propose marriage to him.

But after several months, not a single one was successful.

Gradually, some people began to say that although Wen Lianggong was so handsome, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, he did not like women. It might be because he fell ill on the way while fleeing from famine and was unable to have sex.

As soon as this rumor spread, the harassment against him in Wuzhen decreased by 99%.

Although I almost got choked up the first time I heard it, it was a pleasant surprise to be able to reduce interference.

Thirty miles away, in a valley, two sturdy men, one tall and one short, were staring at the compass in the tall man's hand.

"Why is there no response?"

The short man in brown tights frowned and reached out his hand to pat the compass in the tall man's hand.

The tall one was startled and quickly slapped the short one's hand away.

"You are crazy. This compass is extremely valuable. If it breaks, all our efforts over the years will be in vain."

The shorter one curled his lips, but he also withdrew his hand and stopped moving, just shouting: "We heard the compass from three hundred miles away, there is a demon causing trouble. If we catch it, we will have a life of luxury in this life." The taller one snorted coldly, with a hint of ridicule on his face and a hint of excitement in his eyes: "Those demons are all delicate and tender. A few years ago, I saw a great martial artist hunt down a demon and then share it and eat it. It tasted really good."

The short man groaned when he heard this, and there was a hint of disgust in his eyes, but he didn't say much. He just said, "Let's make it clear first. After this, you go your way and I go mine. Let's part ways in peace."

The tall one didn't care. He just glanced at the short one with a pair of cold eyes. Seeing the other person looking at him coldly, he could only look away helplessly and spread his hands.

"Brother Yan, these demons are now hated by everyone. Once they use their magic, the compass will be activated. We have these detection tools, so we have to be so cautious."

The short man really wanted to say that the other party was a cannibal and was no more evil than a monster, but he didn't say it out loud and just groaned.

"Okay, let's get going. The sooner we do it, the sooner we can arrive. Maybe we can get there before dark. With one night's work, there won't be any problem."

……

……

That night, in the small courtyard, Wen Lianggong stood quietly, facing the double moons, breathing in and out slowly. With every breath he took, silver moonlight that was clearly visible to the naked eye fell like mercury and was absorbed into his body.

As a result, the vital energy in this world was also dragged in and absorbed.

After a long time, feeling the slightly unstable platform, Wen Lianggong slowly opened his eyes and let out a long breath.

Restoring the cracks all over the center of the Purple Mansion is a very slow process. Unless one has a true treasure from heaven and earth, or even an innate object from the world, the recovery can be accelerated.

"It would be great if I could get the ninth-grade golden elixir."

Wen Lianggong sighed. The ninth-grade golden elixir possessed extremely incredible effects. It was a true elixir of life. Even a Daluo Golden Immortal would benefit greatly from taking it, let alone the injuries of a mere Taoist priest.

Now, he could only wait for his attributes to improve to become a Golden Immortal, or for his Indestructible Golden Body to be able to recover after being further improved.

Moreover, this world is extremely wonderful, the rules of heaven and earth are extremely perfect, and it is obvious that there is a complete way of heaven.

Based on this inference, this world is definitely not a small world that depends on the Great Wall of Void.

I don’t know where I ended up after being immersed in the space turbulence.

It would be a lot of fun if we traveled through another world again.

But this is indeed a very good place for cultivation. If one wants to understand the way of guarding the heart and following the perfect natural rules, it will be more conducive to advancement.

Suddenly, his steps as he was about to return to the courtyard to whip Yu Mi paused slightly. The next moment, he saw a long sword shining with a cold silver light under the moonlight suddenly appeared in his sight.

Immediately, the knife moved like a dragon, dragging a winding blade light under the moonlight, and chopped vertically towards Wen Lianggong. The force and speed were so fast that even if there was a big rock in front, it could be easily split in half.

Wen Lianggong raised his eyebrows slightly, but what he was thinking in his heart was that he didn't seem to have offended anyone here, so why would someone come to assassinate him.

But...

Wen Lianggong stepped slightly to the side and twisted his body slightly, and avoided the ferocious long sword by a hair's breadth.

"what?!"
