Mutated Tao Chapter 48: Run away


With a creak, the wooden door slowly opened a crack, and Li Huowang looked outside vigilantly through the crack.

The soft sunlight in the afternoon passes through the swaying leaves, casting a little tree shadow on the ground,

At this time, it was very quiet outside, except for the sweeping monk with a broom in the distance, there was nothing unusual.

However, in the eyes of Li Huowang, who has fully comprehended such a peaceful scene, it is a completely different scene.

"Hmph! It's all just pretending, they can't fool me! They just want to stabilize me, they just want me to voluntarily participate in what they call the Purdue Lent!"

As soon as he said this, a thought flashed through Li Huowang's mind.

"Wait, why did they do this? I'm an ordinary person, they are so strong, why don't you just come to me if you want to do something?"

This question is destined to have no answer now, but Li Huowang doesn't need this answer now, he just wants to get out of this ghost place as much as possible.

Just when Li Huowang was still guessing whether the sweeping monk in the distance came to watch him, the other party saw that there were no fallen leaves on the ground, picked up the broom, turned and left.

"The monks in Zhengde Temple didn't notice my abnormality. This is the only advantage I can take advantage of now." Li Huowang secretly calculated in his heart.

There was no one outside, but Li Huowang did not leave, but quietly waited for something.

As time passed, Li Huowang's palms began to sweat gradually.

"铛~铛~铛~" The dull bell rang throughout the Zhengde Temple instantly, and Li Huowang was shocked.

After staying for so long, Li Huowang already knew that the sound of the bell meant that the hour of You had arrived, and it was also the forecast of the dinner for the monks in Zhengde Temple.

With a "creak", Li Huowang walked away from his residence with a calm expression, and walked towards the dining room together with the monks he met on the road.

It makes perfect sense for him to appear here now, in the past some days, he would go to eat like today.

Compared with the place where they live, the dining hall is obviously closer to the main hall where pilgrims gather. Since the other party is using tricks, they must not want ordinary people to see their terrifying and dark side.

Along the way, Li Huowang noticed that many monks were watching him secretly, and they were talking in a low voice, as if they were still talking about what happened in the afternoon.

There was mockery, hostility, and curiosity in their eyes.

But Li Huowang understands that these are all fake, and these monks are just pretending.

"They and Xinhui are all in the same group. There is no good person in Zhengde Temple. They all want to harm me!!" Li Huowang confirmed firmly.

It took half a stick of incense to walk away, and Li Huowang saw the dining room with bald heads surging. He didn't run away directly, but walked in with the flow of people.

Holding the wooden bowl to serve the meal, Li Huowang sat on the stool calmly, and began to eat the vegetarian food in front of him.

Today's dishes are taro soup, stir-fried tofu with chili, small green vegetables in oil, and stewed potatoes.

Although it didn't have any meat, it tasted pretty good.

However, after experiencing that incident, now Li Huowang has no appetite

In order to deceive them, Li Huowang didn't dare to do anything unusual at this time, and continued to eat with big mouthfuls.

"Pa" A hand on the shoulder made Li Huowang's body tremble violently. "Little Taoist priest, are you here? Hey! Why were you running in such a panic before?"

Hearing this familiar voice, Li Huowang turned his head with puffy mouth, and saw the smiling face missing a front tooth as expected.

That's the old monk I met on the road. If he hadn't forced me to see some stone statues today, I wouldn't be in the situation I am now.

The old monk forced his way to Li Huowang's side with his own bowl of rice, and sat down. "Let's eat together."

From the corner of his eye, Li Huowang glanced at the monks who were not abnormal around him, chewed the food in his mouth and continued to eat. "Up to you."

"Taoist, where are the other people before you? Tell them not to stay in the hotel, come and eat together, I can tell you, there is no money to eat here!" The old monk who knew nothing was still the kind of carefree character.

But this time, Li Huowang, who was eager to get away, didn't bother to talk to him.

After finishing dinner at the same speed as usual, Li Huowang burped and walked out of the dining room.

When he came to the stone brick road outside again, the old monk followed him again. "Don't go, let's have a chat, the monks here are so boring."

Licking the food residue on the gums with his tongue, Li Huowang looked at him with a hint of impatience on his face. "Stop following, go back to sleep."

"What time are you sleeping, what time is it, let me tell you something--"

The old monk had just finished speaking, when he saw the face of the little Taoist priest who was still fine just now became very ugly.

Then Li Huowang said to the old monk in a very low voice: "Go! The sooner the better! This temple is very dangerous!"

The next second, Li Huowang kicked his feet **** the ground and ran towards the main hall with all his strength.

His running immediately attracted the attention of other monks, and the surrounding monks immediately looked over, but he ignored it and started running wildly.

Li Huowang's heart was beating fast, and his spirit was also highly tense. He was always looking around where the old thing Xinhui might appear.

Ten feet! Five feet! Yizhang! !

When Li Huowang rushed out from the side door, there was an explosion all around him, and the sound of footsteps, talking, and knocking on wooden fish instantly squeezed into his ears.

At this moment, he had already returned to the main hall where the incense was in full bloom, and the common people who came to worship him kept shaking him.

Standing in the center of the crowd, Li Huowang was stunned for a moment, and the faces with natural expressions around him seemed to be telling him something silently.

Li Huowang, who was a little out of breath, suddenly thought of something, and turned his head to look at the front side door.

There is nothing there, no pursuers.

Whether it is the welcoming monk who receives the guests in the distance, or the lottery monk who is in charge of unwrapping the lottery, they don't look at this side for half a minute.

In Li Huowang's view, everything is so normal, the normal...is a bit abnormal.

"Could it be...? Those are really my hallucinations? Those disgusting things are all imagined by me?"

But soon Li Huowang dismissed this ridiculous idea, shook his head vigorously, raised his feet and rushed towards the outside of the temple.

This kind of thing cannot be gambled, even if there is even a slight possibility.

The process of leaving the temple is very easy, just as easy as entering.

Li Huowang arrived at the fastest speed. Came to the inn.

Seeing Li Huowang who hadn't seen him for a few days, these Yaoyin people got very close and rushed up one after another.

"Senior brother, why are you back? Are you done with the temple?"

"There's no time to reminisce about the old days, pack your bags and go! Let's leave this place quickly!"

"Okay, then I'll inform Team Master Lu."

"Don't wait for them! Let's go now! Hurry up!!"

"Brother, where are we going?" Bai Lingmiao asked with a puzzled face.

"Exit!"
