I just want to live an ordinary life with the power of the protagonist

Chapter 872 05. Underground Trading Market
After the banquet, Wang Bo ordered someone to take 1000 taels of gold and hand them over to the old Taoist.

However, the 1000 taels is not the real 1000 taels. After all, the ancient counting unit is different from the modern counting unit, but even so, a thousand taels of gold is still a huge sum of money for ordinary people.

The old Taoist seemed calm, but when he got the money, his hands shook involuntarily.

Wang Bo looked into his eyes and said nothing.

After receiving the silver taels, the old Taoist resigned to Wang Bo, saying that he still had important matters and could not delay.

Wang Bo pretended to stay a few times, but when he saw that the other party insisted on leaving, he stopped keeping him and sent the old Taoist and his two apprentices away.

After the three of them left, Wang Bo returned to his room, took out the books that the old Taoist gave him, and started to read them.

Although the old Taoist is not a good person, he really didn't use fake products to fool Wang Bo. What he gave Wang Bo was really a way of practicing Taoism.

It's just that this method is somewhat incomplete, only the upper part, not the lower part.

Wang Bo flipped through this Taoist method, which is called Xuanbing Zhengfa. The magic power cultivated is like Xuanbing, with a chilling air that can freeze people's minds.

It sounds very mysterious, but in Wang Bo's view, it is really ordinary.

Taoism like this can neither strengthen the body nor prolong life, and it is very difficult to practice. More importantly, after practicing this Taoism, it will break the balance of yin and yang in the human body, making the yin energy in the human body flourish , the cold air is lingering, if there is no corresponding way to resolve it, it will inevitably be miserable.

Old Taoist, don't worry about it.

Seeing this, Wang Bo's eyes flickered coldly. Originally, he wanted to wait for the old Taoist to finish his work and give him a surprise when he came over.

But now Wang Bo changed his mind, he decided to give the old Taoist a surprise now.

Wang Bo casually left this Taoist method on the table, stood up, looked around, his eyes released a long light, and soon found the old Taoist and his two apprentices.

Today's Wang Bo is no longer what it used to be, his farsightedness is beyond imagination, and he can have a panoramic view of the whole Chang'an at a glance.

In fact, not only Chang'an, but even several cities near Chang'an, Wang Bo could see clearly.

Under such eyesight, the old Taoist naturally couldn't escape Wang Bo's pursuit.

Not to mention that they just left the palace, even if they left the palace for three days and three nights, Wang Bo could still find these Taoist priests in a short time.

At this time, the old Taoist had a thousand taels of gold in his chest, and he was accompanied by his two apprentices. He was proud of the spring breeze, and his old face was smiling like a flower.

A group of people walked through the busy city, getting further and further away, and gradually came to a remote alley with no one there.

Wang Bo originally wanted to do something, but when he saw the three people coming to a remote alley, he couldn't help but stop. He wanted to see what the three people were doing in such a remote place.

After entering this alley, the old Taoist led his two apprentices to walk dozens of steps to the end of the alley.

This is a dead end.

At this time, the old Taoist pinched a fingerprint, muttered something, and cast a spell of magic power.

This mana swept out and tapped the ground.

Without a sound, the ground collapsed, revealing a downward stepped entrance.

The three old Taoist priests were not surprised at all, they seemed to have gotten used to it, and filed in one file at a time.

When Wang Bo saw this, he couldn't help being a little surprised. When he entered Chang'an City, he had already scanned Chang'an with his eyes and found that there were dragons and crouching tigers hidden in Chang'an City.All famous gymnasiums and temples do not lack practitioners.

In addition, some big families also have practitioners, some of whom are not weak.

From this we can see that practice is prosperous in this world.

But the masters who can really be put in Wang Bo's eyes are still scarce, and it can be said that they are rare.

After all, Wang Bo's current strength is not inferior to ordinary immortals and Buddhas, and ordinary heavenly soldiers and generals are no match for Wang Bo.

But in Chang'an City, there are really a few masters at the level of real immortals and arhats lurking.

For example, the most famous Daci'en Temple in Chang'an City has a monk who has certified the Arhatship.

In a Taoist temple outside Chang'an City, there is a real immortal.

Even in the palace, there are many practitioners lurking, but these people are far worse than the real immortal arhats, and they are not at the same level at all.

But a place like the imperial palace is very special. If there is no order from the emperor, even a real arhat may not trespass into the imperial palace. So so far, the imperial palace is still very safe.

After spying on Chang'an City, Wang Bo originally thought that there should be no secrets in Chang'an City for him.

But today, these three Taoist priests easily revealed a place that Wang Bo didn't know. This incident told Wang Bo that Chang'an City seemed not as simple as Wang Bo imagined.

What he saw was just an appearance.

Wang Bo's mind moved, and his body disappeared into his room. In the remote and narrow alley, before the downward stairs were closed, he followed the three Taoist priests and walked in.

He wanted to see what was going on here.

The old Taoist and his two apprentices didn't even know that they were being followed. The three of them walked down the stairs for a few minutes, and their eyes suddenly opened up.

A huge underground Taoist temple appeared in the sight of the three of them.

This Taoist temple is simple and solemn, with many halls, pavilions, towers and pavilions. The magnolia stone pillars are exquisite and moving. The walls are engraved with birds and animals, which are lifelike. A man-made formation.

There is an alchemy furnace in the center of the square in the backyard of the Taoist temple, which is the eye of the formation.

This alchemy furnace is about three meters high. The purple-gold furnace body is engraved with various strange beasts. There is a raging fire burning under the alchemy furnace. A group of Taoist priests sit cross-legged around the alchemy furnace. into the furnace.

Indistinctly, there is a faint fragrance coming from the alchemy furnace, which is refreshing.

Ordinary people, if they heard about it, would not dare to say that they would prolong their lives, at least they would be able to strengthen their bodies and prevent all diseases.

From this, it can be seen that in this alchemy furnace, a furnace of elixir with good effect is being refined.

When the old Taoist entered the Taoist temple, a Taoist wearing a gossip robe greeted him, "This Taoist brother invited me. I don't know why you are asking for my brother to come to my Taoist temple?"

The old Taoist took out a golden ball from his pocket, handed it over, and said, "This is the inner alchemy of the fox demon. The old Taoist wants to use this inner alchemy in exchange for a bottle of elixir that can improve power. .”

The gossip Taoist took the golden ball, looked it over carefully, nodded slowly, "Yes."

The old man suddenly smiled.

The gossip Taoist said: "Brother Dao, please follow me."

After all, he led the old Taoist into an attic.

Wang Bo did not follow. From the conversation between the two of them just now, Wang Bo already guessed that this underground Taoist temple is likely to be a trading market.
