The sickly boss always wants to get close to her

Chapter 233: Junior Master's Righteousness (10)

Unfortunately, the ghost baby couldn’t understand the Taoist priest’s teasing, he could only fly around him.

The earthbound spirits all over the mountains suffered all night long.

After all, both wandering souls and evil ghosts can run away, but earthbound spirits cannot escape.

Chu Bainiu, the sinful evil ghost, asked for directions and killed anyone he wanted. Those who had not killed anyone were sealed and released.

Thanks to the evil ghost's imposing manner, after constantly adjusting her direction throughout the night, she had arrived at an unfamiliar place when the sun rose from the sky.

The ghost baby had already entered the Soul-Locking Tower. Chu Bainiao landed outside a nearby city and walked into the city.

The city's economy is very depressed and it looks even more desolate than Yang'an County. The city is sparsely populated and there are no vendors on either side of the streets.

The passers-by looked hurried.

She randomly walked into a restaurant and saw a few people sitting there. The waiter was originally lazy, but when he saw her Taoist robe, he came towards her with spirited enthusiasm.

"Master, would you like to have a quick meal or stay overnight?"

Chu Bai Niao looked indifferent, "Let's have a meal. Here are some recommended dishes."

"Good."

Chu Bainiao had his meal alone. Just as he was about to leave after leaving some money, a rough male voice was heard from the second floor of the hotel.

"Taoist Master, please stay."

Chu Bai Niao turned sideways and looked back, only to see a big, square-faced man walking down the stairs in a few steps. He quickly came to her and bowed, saying, "Master, please stay. My master wants to talk to you."

Chu Bainiao looked at him coldly, saying that he was not interested and was about to leave.

"Master Taoist..." The square-faced man didn't know how to stop him, and didn't dare to attack Chu Bainiao, so he took a step forward and half-knelt in front of her.

At the same time, a clear and gentle voice came from behind her: "Master, can you talk to me for a moment? It won't take long."

Chu Bainiao turned around and caught a glimpse of a man in white, his face hidden under a veil, leaning weakly on the railing of the stairs.

Let's talk, does she look like a very idle person?

Just as Chu Bainiao was about to leave, she caught a glimpse of a little girl in a yellow skirt. The little girl ran down from upstairs and hid behind the man in white, looking at her timidly with her big eyes.

"Row."

Hearing her answer, the big guy who was half kneeling in front of her stood up in surprise and said respectfully: "Master, please move."

Chu Bainiao followed them to the box on the second floor. The big guy was guarding the door, the man in white was sitting opposite her, and the little girl in the yellow skirt was leaning timidly next to the man in white.

The man in white took off the veil that was covering his face, revealing his pale and sickly handsome face.

"I am Li Huai. Seeing that the Taoist priest is wearing the Qing Xiao Sect's Taoist robe and can produce silver and money out of thin air, I guess he must be a disciple of the Qing Xiao Sect, right?"

Chu Bainiao's eyes fell on the little girl leaning against Li Huai for a moment, then she retracted her eyes without saying a word and responded softly.

"Great," Li Huai took out a token of Qing Xiao Sect from his sleeve, "My family has some connection with Qing Xiao Sect. Can Taoist priest help me send my sister to Qing Xiao Sect? I will reward you handsomely."

Chu Bai Niao pulled her lips apart with an ambiguous tone, "Qing Xiao Sect has been wiped out, and I have important matters to attend to, so I'm afraid I can't agree to your request."

The token in Li Huai's hand suddenly fell onto the table. He looked stunned and his white hand reached out to the little girl beside him. "How could this be?"

The little girl raised her head, looked at Li Huai worriedly, grabbed his cold hand and rubbed it against her cheek.

"Mr. Li," Chu Bainiao stared at him, "I don't care who you are or what your story is. I agreed to talk to you not because of you, but because of your sister."

"Your sister's face looks like death."

Li Huai's pupils suddenly dilated, and he subconsciously hugged the little girl tightly. He looked at Chu Bainiao and said in a sharp voice, "How could this be? Please, Taoist Priest, save my sister!"

Li Huai gritted his teeth and said, "To be honest, I have offended a demon, and that demon has been chasing us, and there are evil ghosts coming to our door every night."

"Many people have died. Now only Amon is still with us two brothers and sisters."

"I was originally planning to send my sister to Qingxiao Sect, but since the Taoist priest said that Qingxiao Sect no longer exists and that my sister looks dead, it must be that the demon's men have caught up with us again!"

"Please, Taoist priest, save my sister! It doesn't matter if I die! She is still young... She doesn't understand anything. She is implicated because of me."

The little girl looked only four or five years old. She opened her big round eyes and didn't understand what they were saying. She saw that her brother was sad, so she stretched out her little arms and hugged him.

She said in a baby voice, "Brother is not sad."

"Since I came up here, I came here to save your sister." Chu Bainiao had no reaction to the scene in front of him.

"The demon is chasing you, but it turns out to be a demon? What does that mean?"

Li Huai hugged his sister in his arms and said gratefully: "Thank you Taoist priest for saving my sister. I will definitely reward you handsomely in the future!"

"That evil Taoist priest is raising ghosts. During the day, humans are trying to catch us, and at night, evil ghosts are trying to come to our door. I don't know why that evil Taoist priest can always know our location."

Raising evil spirits? Chu Bainiao thought of something, and a scroll appeared out of thin air in his hand.

She unfolded the scroll on the table and asked, "Have you seen the person in the painting?"

Li Huai frowned tightly, as if trying to identify something, "I have seen a man with a similar figure to him, and he also held a mirror."

"who is it?"

Li Huai said uncertainly: "It was that demon. When my men were monitoring him, they mentioned that he took out a mirror and shone it in front of... a person, and that person came back to life."

Chu Bai Niao raised his eyebrows, pulled the corners of his lips apart, and asked with interest: "Who is that demon? He might be the person I'm looking for."

Who are you looking for?

Li Huai's scalp felt like it was about to explode, and a thousand thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.

Seeing that his lips were turning pale with fear, Chu Bai Niao added, "Don't worry, it's revenge."

Li Huai finally came to his senses. He licked his lips and realized that the clothes on his back were soaked!

After escaping so far with great difficulty, if you run into a Taoist priest who turns out to be friends with that evil Taoist priest, you would be so unlucky and all your efforts would be wasted.

He heard his own dry and hoarse voice, "It's the Imperial Master."

Chu Bainiao lowered her eyes calmly.

Heading westward, although not sure of the next direction, a quick glance showed that the imperial city was indeed among them.

Moreover, the man in front of him was not lying when he said the words "national teacher".

"I understand. Don't worry, I will protect you tonight."

Li Huai frowned slightly, as if he had something on his mind. "Master, let's not talk about what happened tonight. We have to leave this city first."

"Those who are hunting me down are good-for-nothings, but they take the words of that demon as the truth. As long as the hunting order is in place, we have to hide from place to place every day."

Chu Bai Niao stood up and said, "Let's go, go wherever you want to go, I will follow you."

Li Huai put on the veil hat again, and took out a small veil hat to put on the little girl. Amon picked her up, took the luggage, went downstairs, and rode out of the city in one go.

Chu Bainiao was not with them when they left the city. After leaving the city, she sat cross-legged on a sword and floated in the air above them.

The little girl sat in front of Li Huai, looked up, and said in a baby voice: "Brother, look, it's the fairy sister."

Li Huai looked up and chuckled, "It's Sister Taoist."

The little girl said, "Sister Taoist, Sister Taoist."

To hide here and there, one has to take small paths. Chu Bainiao caught a glimpse of a group of bandits blocking the road from high in the sky, so she pressed down.

The bandits heard the buzzing of the long sword and looked up, only to see a female Taoist in green sitting on a long sword and looking at them coldly.

He was so frightened that he dropped the rope and knelt on the ground.

After all, no matter how high your martial arts skills are, they cannot resist someone who can fly and control objects.

Li Huai obviously also noticed something unusual. Seeing the bandits who had been hiding on both sides of the jungle crawling on the ground in an orderly manner, he pursed his lips and continued to move forward without stopping.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Li Huai and Amon stopped walking and found a place to rest.

Chu Bainiao sat cross-legged beside the campfire. Li Huai came over with some dry food. "Master, please eat something."

She took it politely.

Although people who practice Taoism in this world cannot absorb spiritual energy, their bodies are washed by spiritual energy every day, so it doesn't matter whether they eat or not.

Chu Bainiao was completely exhausted from eating.

The sky became completely dark, around midnight, and there were gusts of cold wind all around.

The sharp whistling of the wind woke up the little girl in Li Huai's arms, and the girl blinked sleepily.

Li Huai patted her back gently to coax her, and looked at Chu Bainiao who was still meditating with her eyes closed, feeling a little nervous.

Amon stood beside him and whispered, "Don't be afraid, Master. I'm here."

Li Huai understood what he meant, but the bitterness in his heart did not diminish in the slightest.

Dozens of black shadows were flying towards this side from afar, and evil spirits of various shapes were circling in the sky, making shrill sounds.

Li Huai knew they were coming. They seemed to be particularly leisurely. He always liked to tease them, chase them all night long, and intimidate them, and he enjoyed it.

It was almost dawn when it dragged one of them away with a strange cry and took him to a dark place to eat and enjoy.

It would be a lie to say he wasn't afraid, but he looked at his trembling sister with her eyes closed in his arms, hugged her tightly and coaxed her softly, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, brother is here, brother is here."

He clenched the cracked magic weapon in his hand, thinking that if this Taoist priest was unreliable, he would let Amon take his sister away even at the risk of his own life.

Anyway, the only person the national teacher wanted to kill from the beginning to the end was probably himself.

The evil ghosts hovering and screaming in the air felt uneasy when they saw that the humans below did not flee in panic as they did in the past. So they let out a few strange cries and rushed towards the crowd from all directions.

Seeing that the Taoist priest was still meditating with his eyes closed as if nothing had happened, Amon gritted his teeth, took out the only remaining talisman, and tensed his body to block his master.

However, at the moment when those evil spirits pounced on her, Chu Bainiao opened her indifferent eyes.

Su Bai's fingers gently circled, and dozens of black shadows seemed to be smashed to the ground by something.

Amon loosened his hand holding the talisman, and Li Huai also loosened his hand holding the magic weapon.

It seemed that they had not expected that the life-and-death dilemma for them could be solved so easily by the Taoist priest in front of them.

Chu Bainiao felt the vibration of the Soul Locking Tower and took it out.

The ghost baby flew out of the Soul Locking Tower, swaying. After swallowing the golden spiritual energy and digesting it for a day, it actually grew a lot bigger and rounder.

The ghost baby flew to the nearest ghost holding the scroll, loosened its calves, and the scroll unfolded.

He: “***)¥%…&6?”

Chu Bai Niao sighed and stood up. He walked to the ghost baby with his hands behind his back and flicked him away with his fingers. "Do you understand what I am saying?"

The ghost baby was thrown backwards in the air and looked up in confusion.

Chu Bai Niao raised his leg and kicked the evil ghost. "Do you know the ghost in the painting?"

The evil ghost was forced to look up, looked at the soul on the scroll, opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but it seemed that his throat was stuck and he couldn't say anything.

His dark face began to twist and deform, as if he was struggling with something. The next moment, his whole body suddenly exploded and his soul flew away.

Chu Bai Niao suddenly chuckled, turned around and asked, "You said that this was released by the Imperial Master to hunt you down, right?"

Li Huai hugged his sister and nodded blankly.

He is actually the national teacher?

The evil ghost was unable to speak and his soul was scattered, which just proved that the ghost in the painting was their master. Chu Bainiao curled his lips in sarcasm.

A ghost? How could he become the national teacher of a country?

With the blessing of the emperor's dragon energy, it's no wonder she couldn't figure out its whereabouts.

Chu Bainiao waved her sleeves, and all the ghosts on the ground were scared away.

She walked over to Li Huai and sat down, "I need to know the information about the national teacher."

Her move shocked Li Huai and Amon so much that they were speechless. It seemed that they didn't expect that the Taoist priest, who looked so young, could be so powerful.

Realizing that he had accidentally found a real golden thigh, Li Huai immediately said respectfully: "Master, the national teacher appeared in the imperial city five years ago. Also, I apologize to you, my name is not Li Huai."

"My surname is Taishi and my name is Huai. I am the former crown prince who committed treason and died suddenly some time ago." Seeing that Chu Bainiao had no expression, he thought to himself that he was indeed a true master!

Joy and anger are invisible!

"My father is old and has always been obsessed with immortality. Five years ago, when that evil Taoist appeared, I don't know what method he used, but he actually made my father look a lot younger. Since then, my father has appointed him as the national teacher."

"He built the Zhaiyue Tower in the imperial palace for him to live in. Later, my father was bewitched by him to cultivate immortality. He believed that the Taoist sects headed by Tianze Sect were all unorthodox sects, and only the path of the demon sect was the true immortal path."

"So, under the deception of the evil Taoist, my father began to build large-scale projects, collect corvée labor, and recruit young boys and girls, which wasted the people's money and labor. Seeing that the country was about to fall, I decided to rebel."

"When I failed in my rebellion and escaped from the imperial city, I learned that the evil Taoist priest was not like the immortal Taoist priest and actually raised evil ghosts in private. He even released the ghosts to hunt us down."

"He usually looks like a serious middle-aged Taoist priest, very mysterious, but I have never seen him wearing the robes in the scroll. He has always lived alone in the Zhaiyue Tower."

"He had a mirror. King Huai had passed away, but he came back to life under the light of that mirror. It's a pity that I was rejected by my father at that time and I didn't get to see it with my own eyes. Otherwise, I might have recognized the mirror."

"In addition, the Moon-Picking Tower is built in the imperial palace, which is heavily guarded. Taoist priest, you must not act rashly."

"I originally wanted to send my sister to Qingxiao Sect and then contact my old subordinates to fight back into the Imperial City. If you are not in a hurry, you can wait for me for half a year. After half a year, I will help you clear the obstacles."
