“What are your orders, Reverend?”
In the distance, Xu Taiping turned around in confusion and looked at the old Taoist priest.
Without saying a word, the old Taoist priest forcefully threw out an object with a big hand, and with a “whoosh” sound, it was thrown towards Xu Taiping.
“Pa!”
Xu Taiping reached out to catch it, but as a result, the palm of his hand was cracked by the impact.
This made him extremely shocked, and once again he sighed at the high cultivation level of the old Taoist priest.
You know, even though his python and flood dragon physique was in the sleeping flood dragon state, the hardness of his skin and flesh was enough to withstand a blow from a cultivator in the Tongxuan Realm.
Not bothering about the wound on his hand, Xu Taiping opened his bloodied palm and then discovered that what the old Taoist priest gave him was a porcelain figurine.
However, this porcelain figurine was not one of the two on the table, but a new one.
Judging from its appearance, this porcelain figurine was a long-haired man carrying a long sword on his back, looking like a sword cultivator.
“Kid, you listen carefully.”
Just as Xu Taiping was about to ask the old Taoist priest why he gave him this porcelain figurine, unexpectedly, the voice of the old Taoist priest rang out in his ears again——
“Sixty li to the south there is a Fengze Pavilion. When you reach there, immediately crush the porcelain figurine. Don’t ask why, just do it if you don’t want to die!”
Upon hearing these words, Xu Taiping was as if struck by lightning.
Because the location where his fifth tribulation would occur was precisely at that Fengze Pavilion.
”Could it be that the old Taoist priest also calculated my fifth tribulation?”
Xu Taiping’s heart was filled with astonishment as he said.
He never expected that, aside from the left eye bestowed by the Yin God, there could actually be a cultivator in this world who could achieve this.
Even more crucial was that he also bestowed upon himself the item to break the tribulation.
With this thought in mind, Xu Taiping was both shocked and extremely grateful.
If it weren’t for the old Taoist priest’s reminder, he would never have known that the fifth tribulation would come so quickly.
Because in the picture related to the fifth tribulation that he saw with his left eye there was only a pavilion named Fengze Pavilion. Xu Taiping simply had no way to infer the time when the tribulation would come based on this, and even the location, Xu Taiping had just confirmed from the old Taoist priest’s mouth.
”Daoist Priest, can you tell this junior your name?”
Xu Taiping asked the old Taoist priest with a sincere tone.
No matter what purpose the old Taoist priest had for helping himself, this kindness, he had to remember.
Upon hearing this, the old Taoist priest furrowed his brows, as if he didn’t really want to say, but after taking a look at the small porcelain figurine on the table, he suddenly muttered to himself, “Alright, alright, I know.”
After saying this, he then raised his head again and looked at Xu Taiping and said:
“The Lao Dao’s surname is Huang and his name is Zhuan. They all call me Huang Laodao. However, the old man doesn’t have a good reputation in Youyun Tian. You’d better not mention me in front of others.
“Thank you, Taoist Priest!”
Xu Taiping bowed deeply again.
“Get out, get out quickly! Meeting you is also bad luck for me!”
The old priest waved his hand impatiently.
His voice was very loud, but the pedestrians on the street seemed not to hear it and ignored it as if they didn’t hear it. Obviously, he used some means so that only Xu Taiping could hear the voice.
Xu Taiping smiled, and then without hesitation, he walked quickly towards the South Gate.
According to his calculation in his heart, in another cup of tea’s time, a blood rain would fall over the capital city.
“Bai Yu, don’t go back to the city. Find a place called Fengze Pavilion on the map and wait for me near there. Before I come, don’t get close to Fengze Pavilion.”
While walking out of the city gate like the wind, Xu Taiping transmitted his voice to Bai Yu.
“Got it. I also feel something is wrong.”
Soon he received Bai Yu’s response.
Just at this time, Xu Taiping had just walked out of the city.
Because there was no restriction of the city’s barrier he even used the “distance within reach” to ride the wind and rise up. His figure turned into a gust of wind and flew towards the direction of Fengze Pavilion.
He has already dodged the third tribulation once, and the variables brought about are still unknown.
So even without the porcelain figurine given by the old Taoist, he doesn’t intend to hide the fifth tribulation and must find a way to face the tribulation. Otherwise, the variables will become greater and greater, and even the Lotus Pupil can’t help him.
……
Let’s talk about that Huanglao Taoist again.
As soon as Xu Taiping left, the old Taoist reached out and grabbed his hair, and as a result, he grabbed a whole bunch of it off.
“This unlucky brat made the old Taoist lose so much hair again!”
Huanglao Taoist said with a face full of anger and frustration.
“Laugh, laugh, you mother and daughter only know how to laugh at the old Taoist. One day when the old Taoist’s hair is all gone, see who will support you.”
As he was talking, he suddenly got angry at the two small porcelain figurines in front of him again.
But as soon as the words came out, the anger on his face turned into a flattering expression, and he said with a sneer:
Dear wife, let’s talk. Isn’t it just that the old Taoist is a little upset in his heart?
This self-talking appearance, in the eyes of the passers-by on the street, is exactly like an old lunatic who has lost his mind.
But the old Taoist still goes his own way and just treats everyone in front of him as dead people.
After “pacifying” the two small porcelain figurines in front of him, he suddenly raised his head to look at the sky, and then the corner of his mouth slightly raised and said: “After this thunder is over, it should rain. The old scholar really has a big show!”
After saying this, he suddenly put away the smile on his face and then shouted at the street:
“A group of idiots, what are you looking at! It’s going to rain, go home and collect your clothes! If it weren’t for the fact that I promised my wife to only set up a stall once a day, I would chop you all up and make wontons!”
After being scolded by him like this, the onlookers around the west side immediately scattered in a rush.
However, among the dispersed crowd there was a young man in brocade clothes with a horizontal knife hanging from his waist who came to the front of Huanglao Dao against the flow of people.
“Daoist Huangzhuan, haven’t you closed your stall yet?”
The young man smiled at Huanglao Daoist.
Huanglao Dao looked the young man up and down, and then spat aside and said:
“If everyone’s fortune was like that of your Chu royal family, I’m afraid all the fortune-tellers in the world would have to go hungry.”
The young man laughed heartily when he heard this.
