Chapter 815: Being short-tongued

Latest website: Hearing the Taoist priest in purple turn around and scold Eggplant, Ji Han and others' eyes widened.

They just hadn't figured out why the Taoist priest wouldn't let them get on the bus. Ji Han always thought it might be a problem with their decoration.

After all, he has such short hair, carries a weird luggage, and wears such neat and unfitting Taoist clothes.

It looked like he had just robbed other Taoist priests' clothes and was here to deceive passers-by.

That's why he pretended to be stupid and didn't understand what Ji Han and others were talking about.

Eggplant, on the other hand, always thought that the Taoist priest was a mute, because they kept asking questions, so they just pushed back and said nothing.

None of the four expected that the Taoist priest who came up in the bullock cart would not only understand what they were saying, but also be so bad-tempered.

After turning around and scolding Eggplant, the purple-robed Taoist sighed again, closed his eyes and shook his head:

"The practice of clean mouth failed again. What a damn misfortune!"

After hearing the words, several people also understood what happened before.

There is indeed a saying in Taoism about "clean mouth". The original meaning is not to say some taboo words, but some places also directly require not to speak for a period of time.

It can be regarded as a kind of exercise for desire and personal nature. It is estimated that the Taoist priest was still purging his mouth just now, so he never replied to what Ji Han and the other four said. Maybe he really couldn't bear Eggplant's slander, so he cursed loudly.

This time, Eggplant was amused:

"My fellow Taoist, you have more bits and pieces in your mouth than I do. I'm afraid it will be a little difficult to clean your mouth."

The purple-robed Taoist priest didn't say anything, but just turned around and glared at Eggplant again.

As soon as Ji Han saw that he could communicate without any obstacles, he asked again:

"Fellow Taoist, do you know the situation in the city ahead?"

Perhaps because he had already spoken successfully, the purple-robed Taoist no longer pretended to be deaf and dumb as before, but he did not reply directly. He just suggested:

"The stone city ahead is not a place you can go to. It might cost you your life. I advise you to leave as soon as possible."

Ji Hanxin said that this is the place we are looking for. If you tell us that the mountains are clear and the water is beautiful, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, we will find it weird.

So he replied:

"Fellow Taoist, don't worry about this. Since we are here, we are all aware. We just want to make some preparations in advance."

The purple-robed Taoist hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said:

"Then I'm afraid I can't help you much, but no matter what you are going to do, I hope you will leave as soon as possible, otherwise you may be involved in danger."

Ji Han knew as soon as he heard that this guy must know something, but he just kept it secretive.

Before he could continue to ask, the Taoist priest in purple took out two dry biscuits from his luggage and started chewing them.

Seeing that Ji Han and the others didn't seem to have any intention of eating, the Taoist priest handed over the remaining dry food in his bag and said:

"Four fellow Taoists, although I don't know which temple you are from and what you are doing here, I still advise you to go back early and don't stop here. I still have some dry food here to share with you. The nearest inn to the east is nearly a hundred miles away, you might be able to use it when you go back."

Ji Han smiled and said:

"Fellow Taoist, you gave us all the dry food, aren't you going to go back?"

The Taoist priest waved his hand and said:

"It's not the dry food that affects whether I can go back. Oh, forget it. You can continue to take this ox cart when you go back. But if you return it to the owner of the Qiuci Town Inn, just think that I wasted his time. Ingots of silver, if I can go back, I will ask him for it myself. This cow also knows the way and will ask you to take it all the way back."

Listening to the Taoist priest's words, Ji Han and the others became more and more confused, wondering what all this was.

However, the four of them could also tell that the Taoist priest had good intentions, as he was sending cattle and sharing dry food.

Seeing that the Taoist priest in purple had difficulty swallowing the cake, Chen Ke poured out a large amount of pork jerky from his backpack while passing the water.

Originally, Chen Ke wanted to continue using the beef jerky he always eats, but this time he was in Hainan and it was really difficult to purchase, so he had to buy a large amount of pork jerky from the convenience store at the airport as a substitute.

Chen Kexin said that he was lucky to have replaced the beef jerky with pork jerky, because in many ancient dynasties it was illegal to eat beef, and Taoist priests also tabooed beef.

Chen Ke opened a large package of pork jerky and handed it over:

"Although it seems inappropriate to eat these on a cart, now is not the time to be picky about food. Come on, fellow Taoist, and try this."

Smelling the overflowing aroma of meat, the Taoist priest in purple chewed the dry biscuits in his mouth, swallowed and said:

"Isn't this...not good?"

After about half a stick of incense, Ji Han, the four of them and the Taoist priest in purple started feasting on the cart.

In order to rush for time, Ji Han and the four of them didn't eat anything after getting off the airport. However, the Taoist priest in purple ate only dry biscuits along the way, and he gnawed away the only pickles left. So at this moment, he couldn't resist the fullness of the food from the future. The meaty aroma of technology and hard work.

Before long, like Ji Han and the others, he was munching on dried meat and drinking hot water from the thermos.

After swallowing a big mouthful, he let out a sigh of satisfaction and said:

"Which temple are you practicing in? Your life is too comfortable!"

Ji Han smiled and said:

"These are all small things. We can discuss them with fellow Taoists in detail later. Now can you tell us about the stone city in front of us?"

As the saying goes, people who eat have a short mouth. The Taoist priest in purple pinched a few slices of pork jerky from the bag and explained:

"Actually, I just don't want you to be in danger. The stone city in front is left over from the Tang Dynasty. At that time, the Four Towns of Anxi were set up, and the fortress guarding Qiuci Town was here, so it can be said that this is a fortress ruins."

Ji Han didn't know what dynasty it was now, and it was inconvenient to ask and reveal his identity as a time traveler, but he could also hear from the Taoist priest's words that the Tang Dynasty should be some time away from now, so he asked:

"Ruins? Does that mean there's no one here now?"

"Of course. "

"Since there is no one left, where does the danger you just mentioned come from?"

"Although so much time has passed and this land has changed hands many times, from the Tang Dynasty until now, no foreign army has come here, and no army has reoccupied this fortress."

Ji Han said in confusion:

"Hiss, isn't there only one stone city here? How can it withstand thousands of armies?"

The purple-robed Taoist looked up at Shitucheng, who was already very close, shook his head and said:

"What is on this mountain is not just an empty city, but also an entire army of underworld soldiers who once buried all the invading enemies."
