    Chapter Index

      The old farmer didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he continued to walk forward quickly. Only after confirming that the village head had gone far away did he suddenly reach out and slap the young man on the back of the head with a “pop” sound. Then he said:
    You brat, you’re so impetuous. What did I tell you before going up the mountain? Don’t make any noise, don’t make any noise!
      And if what you just said was heard by the village head, our father and son would have to lie down and go out right now!
    The young man was a bit resentful and said:
      Dad, you’re really something. Since it’s so dangerous, why did you still come here? The two of us have plenty of strength. Where can’t we find a way to make a living?
      Upon hearing this, the old farmer rolled his eyes at the young man and then leaned close to his ear and whispered:
      Do you know how much silver our father and son can earn after finishing this job? Three hundred taels! It’s three hundred taels!
      Upon hearing that they could earn three hundred taels for this job all at once, the eyes of the youth that were originally filled with resentment suddenly became excited.
      But the nature of a youth is hard to change. The more the old farmer said this, the more curious he became about this Taoist temple.
      So after entering the house and putting down the burden, he finally couldn’t help but ask, “Dad, what kind of place is this Taoist temple? You might as well tell me, your son.”
      Xu Taiping, who had followed them here, immediately perked up when he heard the youth’s question.
      “Hoo…”
      Unable to resist, the old farmer lit a pipe for himself, took a deep puff, and then said leisurely:
      “This Taoist temple, also known as the Ten Evils Temple, was set up by the immortals on the mountain to punish the disciples in the sect who violated the sect rules.”
      “Some disciples who have killed people or committed serious mistakes will be locked in this Taoist temple and left to fend for themselves.”
      After hearing the word “immortals”, the peasant youth immediately said excitedly with a face full of excitement:
      “Dad, there really are immortals on this mountain!”
      Upon hearing this, the old farmer “smacked” and hit the peasant youth hard on the forehead with the pipe, and then said angrily with a face full of anger:
      “Keep your voice down. These immortals are all very strange. They can hear our words from a long distance away!”
      As he spoke, he also looked around at the west and north, and then scared the peasant youth by saying:
      “Maybe there are immortals hiding in our house right now!”
      Xu Taiping, who was sitting quietly aside listening to the two chatting, scratched his head in embarrassment after hearing this.
      And the peasant boy was obviously frightened after hearing this, but he couldn’t hold back his curiosity about the deeds of the immortals in his heart, so he also pinched his throat and urged the old peasant in a low voice:
    “Dad, go on, tell me how the immortal on the mountain let those disciples who committed serious mistakes fend for themselves in “this Taoist Temple.”
      The old peasant took a puff of smoke and then said:
      “There is a cannibal rule in this Ten Evils View, that is, within each month, each disciple must name and challenge a disciple.”
      “If one loses more than ten times in a row, one will become a servant of this Ten Evils View and be arranged to dig gems in the dark mine until death.”
      When the peasant boy heard this, there was obviously a hint of fear in his eyes, but even so, he couldn’t help but urge and ask:
      “What if one wins?”
      The old peasant replied:
      “If one wins, one can get a gem, and this gem can be used to exchange for food, weapons and elixirs, and can also be used to exchange for the opportunity to leave this Ten Evils View and return to the sect after saving up three hundred pieces.”
      The peasant boy nodded naively and said:
      “It sounds pretty good.”
      But then he asked again with some doubts:
      ”Didn’t it say that immortals don’t need to eat? Why do they still exchange food with precious stones on purpose?”
      As if having expected that the youth would ask these questions, the old farmer took a puff on his pipe very calmly and then said:
      ”I heard that it’s because these foods contain the antidote to suppress the poison in their bodies. If they don’t eat, they simply don’t have the strength to fight.”
      Upon hearing this, the rural youth nodded with a look of sudden realization.
      And Xu Taiping behind the two people, after listening to the old farmer’s account, finally had a preliminary understanding of this Shieguan and thought in his heart:
      ”This Shieguan seems to be used by the Taihao Sect to punish the disciples who have violated the sect rules. The reason why Sister Buyu is being besieged is presumably because she has just entered the view, and everyone wants to defeat her and earn spirit stones from her.”
      At this time, only heard the rural youth ask again:
      ”By the way, Dad, why do you know so clearly about the affairs in this view?”
      The old farmer smiled “hehe” and then said with a mysterious look on his face:
      ”Your father was also considered half a cultivator before. But later, I committed some things and was deprived of my abilities by the sect, so I came back to farm.”
      Upon hearing this, the rural youth gave the old farmer a disbelieving look and said:
      ”Dad, it’s okay for you to brag to outsiders, but why are you bragging to your son?”
    Upon hearing this, Theoldfarmer chuckled again and then asked the peasant boy in a half-real and half-false tone:
      “Mu Guang, do you want to become an immortal?”
      The peasant boy still felt that the old farmer was boasting, but Xu Taiping on the side, after hearing what the old farmer said, his eyes involuntarily became sharp.
      His mental perception was extremely sharp, and he didn’t think the old farmer was lying.
      “Dang, dang, dang!”
      However, just as Xu Taiping wanted to continue observing the old farmer for a while, in the Taoist temple outside the house, there suddenly sounded a burst of rapid bell-ringing sounds.
    Immediately afterwards, only a familiar voice was heard, suddenly resounding throughout the Taoist temple – “Master of the temple, Lin Buyu named challenges Su Muling. Please arrange it for tomorrow, Master of the temple!
      Xu Taiping’s heart shook, and he thought to himself:
      “Why did Junior Sister Buyu start to actively challenge other disciples?”
      With this thought in mind, he stepped on the Kunwu Sword Brush and flew through the roof first, rushing towards the direction where Lin Buyu’s voice came from.
      Immediately, he saw Lin Buyu’s figure beside a large bell in an attic.
      Coincidentally, at this time, the master of the temple who had never shown his face also said:
      “Approved!”
    Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, and tomorrow’s name battle was definitely unavoidable.
      And just as he was staring at Lin Buyu in confusion, he saw Lin Buyu clasp her fists with both hands and, facing the direction where the voice of the Guanzhu came from, said expressionlessly:
      “If I win this battle, Lin Buyu doesn’t want spirit stones. I only ask the Guanzhu to bestow that big yellow dog upon me.”
      Xu Taiping was stunned for a moment, and then said with a bitter smile:
      “Junior Sister Buyu, you are taking such a great risk to fight someone just for this big yellow dog?”
      The Guanzhu was also equally Don’t understand :
      “Why do you want that big yellow dog?”
      Lin Buyu answered without hesitation:
      “Whoever has been kind to me, Lin Buyu, I will never stand by and watch them die, even if it is just a dog.”
      When Xu Taiping heard this, his heart trembled, and the confusion on his face suddenly turned into a broad smile of understanding. Then he murmured:
    “It’s indeed Junior Sister Buyu. That’s right.”
