Longevity, Starting From Raising Chickens

Chapter 244 Falling

"It's Zhang Tailai."

Wang Ba reacted immediately.

He turned his eyes slightly, looked at himself, and found that there was no omission, then he stepped forward to open the door.

There were no monks from the three major sects outside the door. Only Zhang Tailai, smelling heavily of smoke, strode in with a nervous look on his face.

He was relieved to see Wang Ba safe and sound.

"Little friend Shen, you haven't opened the door, you scared me to death!"

However, there was no flaw on Wang Ba's face, and he asked with confusion: "Zhang Perfect Being, what's going on?"

Zhang Tailai shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I just heard two sudden noises outside, so I hurried over to take a look."

"Later I remembered Xiaoyou Shen, and I quickly came back."

"Ringed...twice?"

Wang Ba was stunned.

He turned his head and looked at Bu Chan in confusion: "While I was in retreat, there were two noises outside?"

Bu Chan nodded: "Yes, the sound is very loud, I don't know what it is that is so loud."

"I went there to see it. It looks a bit like Tianleizi."

Zhang Tailai scratched his head.

Wang Ba seemed confused when he heard this, shook his head and said:

"Forget it, there's no need to go into details. It's probably because there are monks fighting outside the city."

"We're not going out anyway, don't worry too much."

Zhang Tailai's simple and honest face revealed a half-understanding look: "Oh, then I'll go back first."

"Hehe, Zhang Perfected Being is not in a hurry to leave. I have been in seclusion for many days, and I am a little bored. Why don't we drink some spiritual wine together."

Wang Ba tried to persuade him to stay.

Bu Chan glanced at Wang Ba, then smiled and retreated to get the spirit wine.

When Zhang Tailai heard the spirit wine, he immediately showed emotion.

It's just that soon, it seems that something has come to mind, and there is a faint struggle on the face:

"Brother doesn't let me drink casually..."

"The spirit of this wine is easy to dispel, and it won't make Perfected Being drunk."

Wang Ba said with a smile.

Soon, Buchan took out the spirit wine and made some side dishes.

Zhang Tailai couldn't refuse, so he had to sit down and eat and drink.

Soon, the wine was so hot that he even opened his clothes and drank heavily.

Seeing this, Wang Ba had no choice but to pour himself a glass of wine.

Not long after, the door was knocked again.

"Today is quite strange."

Wang Ba couldn't help but muttered.

Buchan had already walked to the door, lifted the formation, and opened the door.

I saw a monk wearing the robe of the Xuli Sect looked inside, glanced at Wang Ba and Zhang Tailai opposite, then quickly withdrew his gaze, and then whispered a few words to Bu Chan,

They left soon.

"What did he just say?"

Wang Ba asked curiously.

Bu Chan didn't hide anything: "He said that someone outside the city seemed to have released two Rank Two thunder seeds one after another just now. He was worried that someone would do harm to senior brother, so he came to check and saw that senior brother was fine, so he left."

Wang Ba nodded slightly when he heard the words.

But Zhang Tailai's face showed a trace of pride: "Look! I was right!"

"Haha, Zhang Perfected Being's eyes are so bright that he can naturally see Shattering Void delirium."

Wang Ba slapped him in a flattering manner, which immediately made Zhang Tailai laugh happily.

After drinking for a while, Zhang Tailai blushed and staggered out of Wang Ba's mansion.

Looking at Zhang Tailai's back, Wang Ba felt slightly absent-minded.

"Senior brother."

Bu Chan walked to Wang Ba's side.

Wang Ba came back to his senses immediately, but his face was a little solemn:

"The situation is not right. I clearly just released a thunderbolt before, so why are there two sounds?"

"How long was the interval between these two sounds?"

"About six breaths."

Bu Chan recalled it and gave a number.

Wang Ba looked thoughtful: "So, just about two breaths after I used the teleportation array to leave, someone came to the scene and released another Tianleizi."

"But who is this person? What is the reason for doing this?"

Bu Chan's eyes flashed and he analyzed:

"Senior brother Fang Tianleizi used Tianleizi's voice to attract people from the three major sects and let them discover the Xianghuo Dao monks. However, the other person's release of Tianleizi is unlikely to continue to attract attention, or it happens to be When fighting with others, use this Tianleizi, or use the explosive power of Tianleizi to hide something."

"The former is a bit of a coincidence, but the latter, what is there to hide at the scene?"

Almost without thinking, Wang Ba and Bu Chan said the answer almost at the same time:

"It's those Incense Tao monks!"

"Someone is secretly helping Xiang Huo Dao!"

Wang Ba immediately added: "And according to this time interval, it is very likely that there are people from them in Yong'an City!"

Thinking of this possibility, both of them couldn't help but feel heavy.

The scene of the Incense Road raging in Chen State in the past is still fresh in their memory.

Perhaps a single cultivator of the Incense Path is not something to be afraid of, but the trouble with the Incense Path lies in its pervasiveness and vitality that is as tenacious as a weed.

But today's situation is somewhat like the situation when Wang Ba was in the Dongsheng Sect in the past. Incense Tao is like the Tianmen Sect that used to hide in the dark.

It’s just that Incense Taoism is not Tianmen Sect.

But today's Wang Ba is no longer the Wang Ba who was powerless and could be manipulated by others.

Wang Ba's eyes gradually calmed down and he quickly analyzed:

"The people in Xianghuo Dao probably don't know that I discovered them."

"They are afraid of the person who discovered them. I'm afraid they won't take any action for the time being. Instead, they will be careful to restrain themselves."

"Furthermore, when Incense Road comes to the hinterland of Da Chu, it is probably not possible to develop believers on a large scale. It is probably arranged by the Kingdom of the Ten Thousand Gods to spy on intelligence. So if you put it this way, we don't need to worry too much at all."

"When Zhang Perfected Being from Danlongmen comes over next time, I will tell them about Incense Road in person."

Bu Chan thought about it for a while, but he didn't have any better suggestions.

He just said seriously: "Senior brother, don't worry, I will practice the technique well."

Although Wang Ba was a little pleased when he heard this, he was also a little helpless.

Junior sister is good at everything, but her talent in magic is too average.

But he really couldn't dampen Bu Chan's enthusiasm, so he could only smile and nod, and returned to the quiet room alone.

Close the door gently.

Wang Ba's face suddenly darkened.

"Xuli Zong..."

The layer of protection formed by the Hundred Lives Soul-blaspheming Curse outside his Lingtai Temple suddenly disappeared, and he realized that someone had cast a curse on him.

Originally, his suspects actually included all the sects of the three sects, and even some Independent Cultivators.

However, when the probing Xuli Sect disciple looked at him, he immediately realized that there was no one else but Xuli Sect!

Because he clearly sensed the fleeting surprise and astonishment in the other party's eyes.

It seemed incredible that he could still sit there.

As for why Xu Lizong wanted to kill him, Wang Ba could also guess something.

"It seems that what Zhang Tailai said before made them wary, so they simply took action..."

Wang Ba couldn't help but look slightly cold.

But he soon calmed down these emotions one by one, opened the storage bag, took out the Rank Two Middle Grade Spirit Communication ghost loaches one by one, and began to cast the 'Hundred Lives Soul-Desecrating Curse'.

After half a stick of incense.

Feel the indescribably dark black outside the Lingtai temple, which seems to be more excited and writhing than before.

Wang Ba breathed a sigh of relief slowly.

This is how you feel safe.

It's just that he didn't know if it was an illusion, he could faintly feel that the Lingtai temple seemed to be shrinking a bit compared to before.

…

"You mean, when you saw Shen Fu, you also saw Zhang Tailai?!"

In the palace at the highest peak of the Xuli Sect, Zhuang Yi eagerly grabbed a disciple by the collar and asked anxiously.

"Yes! I saw it with my own eyes! The two of them were still drinking together. That Shen Fu didn't look like he had been cursed at all. By the way, that Zhang Tailai looked a little embarrassed."

The disciples of Xuli Sect said quickly.

If Wang Ba were here, he would definitely find that this person was the monk who knocked on the door before.

Hearing this, Zhuang Yi quickly turned around, clasped his fists towards Lin Boyue, the lord of the Xuli Sect who had never said a word, and said:

"Sect Master! It must be Zhang Tailai who blocked the curse for Shen Fu, so that the curse's power backfired, not only harming Cao Xiang of the Wei Kingdom, but also implicating... the nephew Wang!"

On the high platform futon.

Lin Boyue said nothing, his face was terrifyingly dark.

In the eyes, there is a trace of sadness and anger that has never been seen before.

His eyes couldn't help but fall below.

There, two weird meat balls were rolling in place.

It can be vaguely seen that one of the meat balls is wearing the robe of Xu Lizong.

In Lin Boyue's mind, Wang Tang's face could not help but float up.

This is a good seed that he finally picked out from the disciples of the next generation who are dedicated to the sect.

He has worked hard for decades to train him, and he is likely to succeed him in the future and become the next suzerain of the Xuli Sect!

Countless efforts.

Just like that, turned into a ball of meat?

Zhuang Yi had a stern look on his face: "Sect Master, why don't we go directly to Yong'an City and capture Zhang Tailai! We will torture him to death so that all Independent Cultivators will know what will happen to the monks who dare to murder me..."

"shut up!!!"

Finally, Lin Boyue couldn't hold back any longer, his eyes filled with anger, and he looked at Zhuang Yi furiously.

"you tell me!"

"Why wasn't you the one who died?"

"Why is Wang Tang dead?"

Zhuang Yi looked at Lin Boyue with a stunned look on his face.

"Senior brother...I..."

Lin Boyue suddenly closed his eyes, his chest rising and falling violently.

There was deathly silence in the entire hall!

After a long time, Lin Boyue took a long breath and finally opened his eyes.

There was a trace of unspeakable fatigue in his eyes.

He looked at Zhuang Yi and whispered: "Junior Brother Zhuang, I just couldn't help myself."

"No, it's Zhuang Yi who is useless. He couldn't even protect Senior Nephew Wang. He is the future of our sect. The sect can live without Zhuang Yi, but it cannot live without Wang Tang."

Zhuang Yi lowered his head with a look of shame on his face.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You are the Gold Core Perfected Being and the backbone of the sect. No one is more important than you!"

Lin Boyue gave a light drink and said a few words of comfort.

Immediately, Mulu pondered:

"Cao Xiang's curse-killing technique of Wei State can even kill Foundation Building. Although this application has extraordinary skills, in the final analysis, he is just an ordinary monk in the early stage of Foundation Building. I can't be wrong about this."

"And Zhang Tailai happens to be where Shenfu is, so this is probably not a coincidence."

"In this case, I'm afraid it was Zhang Tailai who blocked it for him. And from your description, before Cao Xiang turned into a ball of meat, he didn't seem to believe that he would encounter a backlash, and on top of the ball of meat, almost all With the many curses produced by the soul that affect the physical body, it is obvious that this Zhang Tailai is probably also capable of spells, and the scope of his involvement is quite large!"

"So, this Zhang Tailai is probably far beyond our previous understanding of him. Everyone thinks he is a brainless idiot, but this is his perfect disguise!"

Listening to Lin Boyue's analysis, Zhuang Yi suddenly forgot about his self-blame and couldn't help but said in surprise:

"What does the suzerain mean, this Zhang Tailai has been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger? But, this... doesn't look like it at all, it doesn't look like he's pretending at all."

Lin Boyue immediately shook his head and said:

"This is exactly his brilliance. Even if you think it's impossible, others won't."

Zhuang Yi nodded immediately when he heard the words, but he always felt that something was not right.

"Then let's arrest him now?"

Zhuang Yi couldn't help but said.

"No, now is not the right time."

"Yuan Wenzhi has been hiding in the dark and has not shown himself. If Zhang Tailai is killed right now, it will only cause trouble."

Lin Boyue's face was slightly cold, and there was a hint of fierceness in his eyes.

"hold on."

"You first investigate all the information and achievements of Zhang Tailai, and find out all his strengths and weaknesses..."

"These things will be used sooner or later."

"yes!"

"besides……"

Lin Boyue glanced at the lumps of flesh below his eyes, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, and then he closed his eyes slowly.

"Give him a good time."

"……yes."

…

Three days later.
