Chapter 287 Left, Right, Right
When the human-head lantern went to the window to call someone, the other human-head lantern with pigtails on the right spoke.
Her voice was somewhat crisp: "Mr. Ju, where is the corpse oil you promised us when you left?"
Ju Yunhai was stunned for a moment, then his face turned red with embarrassment.
Xiaobianer said, "Mr. Ju, you didn't forget it, did you? No way, how could you forget what you promised to others? I have been waiting for two months."
When Ju Yunhai was in trouble, the door of the hut inside finally opened.
"Right boy, don't be rude."
The person who was speaking was an old man with a gloomy and terrifying face. The skin and flesh on his left face had disappeared, leaving only a skeleton, while his right face was extremely old, revealing his true appearance.
The old man bowed with Mei Xiangu, Tian Lin and others, and said, "Pei greets all Taoist friends."
Tian Lin and the others returned the greeting. The old man asked Ju Yunhai, "Fellow Daoist Ju, are you coming into the mountains for Cangjian Villa?"
Ju Yunhai was stunned for a moment, and asked the old man, "How did Mr. Pei know about this?"
Old Man Pei said: “It is no longer a secret in this demon forest that the ancestor of the Guo family failed to be promoted.
I think the young master of the Guo family is only in the middle stage of foundation building. It is difficult for him to survive in the monster forest with this level of cultivation, so he must find another way out.
But it is unlikely that his Guo family will join the Beast Taming Sect, so they will most likely join the Asking Dao Sect. "
Ju Yunhai was even more stunned, and said, "From what Mr. Pei said, the Guo family wants to become a subsidiary sect of my Dao Sect?"
Old man Pei raised one eyebrow and asked curiously, "Didn't Taoist Ju come into the mountains to take the Guo family to ask Dao Sect?"
Ju Yunhai was speechless for a moment, and Tian Lin stood up. He first bowed to Old Man Pei, then asked Old Man Pei: "Fellow Daoist Pei just said that the Guo family is unlikely to join the Beast Taming Sect. I wonder why?"
Old Man Pei said, "Speaking of this, it is a scandal of the Pei family and it is related to the reputation of the Beast Taming Sect, so I can't say more."
Fairy Mei hated people playing tricks the most. She frowned and a top-grade spirit stone appeared in her hand.
She handed the top-grade spirit stone to Old Man Pei and said, "Just make it clear, this spirit stone is yours. When the Beastmaster Sect asks about it, we won't expose you."
Little did she know that her words angered Old Man Pei, who turned around with a flick of his sleeves and said, "Left, right, right, help me see the guest off."
As he spoke, Old Man Pei had already entered the hut.
Just as the door of the thatched cottage was about to slam shut, Mei Xiangu was about to use the plum blossom between her eyebrows to break it open.
Fortunately, Tian Lin raised his hand to block Mei Xiangu. Tian Lin said:
"Firstly, we are a reputable and upright sect. Secondly, Mr. Pei is not our enemy. It is wrong for us to disturb him rashly. How can we insult him with our spiritual sense? Moreover, Mr. Pei is a friend of Senior Brother Ju, which means he is also our friend. How can Miss Mei be so rude to her friend?"
Mei Xiangu looked unhappy. She had never been criticized for her actions.
Back then in Chenxiantang, she used her power to overpower others.
Moreover, she has never suffered any loss by using her power to bully others, so she doesn't think there is anything wrong with doing so.
"Are you teaching me how to do things? Mr. Tian, do you really treat me as your servant?"
Tian Lin said: "I would like to treat you as a friend, but Miss Mei, you don't appreciate it."
Mei Xiangu's expression changed, as she considered that it was impossible to really kill Tian Lin.
She withdrew her hand, turned around and said coldly: "Anyway, it doesn't matter to me if the mission is not completed. Since you don't let me intervene, I will never take action unless you beg me to do so." Ju Yunhai bowed and apologized to the old man Pei in the hut: "Fellow Daoist Pei, all the mistakes are Ju Yunhai's fault. I will make amends to you one day. Just ask Fellow Daoist Pei to tell me which direction Cangjian Villa should go?"
Inside the thatched cottage, Old Man Pei's voice rang out, "If you want to find Cangjian Villa, it's about a hundred miles south of here."
Ju Yunhai thanked them and said to the two human head lanterns at the door, "Left, right, left, right, I will definitely pay you back the corpse oil I owe you next time."
Xiaobianer said crisply: "Okay, I'll trust you again."
After she finished speaking, the head lantern next to her also spoke up: "Then let's give Mr. Ju a ride."
The man's eyes began to shine, and two red beams of light instantly shone into the dense forest in the dark night.
There was a burst of ghostly howling and wolves howling, and a large number of wild animals disappeared. In the dense forest, the animal eyes emitting dim light also disappeared in an instant.
Ju Yunhai thanked the two human head lanterns again and then walked in the direction pointed by Old Man Pei.
Perhaps it was due to the magic of the human head lantern, there were no birds or beasts harassing us along the way.
Seeing this, Senior Sister Jia couldn't help but say, "These two lanterns are a bit weird."
Ju Yunhai said: "Zuo Zuo You You were originally brothers and sisters. After they became ghosts, they were made into lanterns by a great monk. Later, the great monk thought the two lanterns were too broken, so he threw them on the roadside.
A hundred years later, it was Pei Daoyou who picked them up. Although they were discarded lanterns that the great monks didn't want, no one in the Jindan realm could bear to look at them. "
His words seemed to be an explanation to Senior Sister Jia, but in fact he was blaming Fairy Mei.
Mei Xiangu frowned and said, "Two broken lanterns, why would I be afraid of them?"
Although Ju Yunhai respected the cultivation of Mei Xiangu, he and Mr. Pei were friends.
Fairy Mei wanted to attack Mr. Pei before, which was clearly a lack of respect for Ju Yunhai.
He was fine with being humiliated, but he was unwilling to embarrass his friend, so he said coldly: "Even if Miss Mei ate the Tao Seed, she still failed to fully cultivate the Tao of Wood.
Although the left and right lanterns were human head lanterns that no one wanted, they were made by great monks after all. Miss Mei didn't think about it. If they had no power, how could they protect Mr. Pei from gaining a foothold in this demon forest? "
Tian Lin nodded and said, "Brother Ju is right. We were too rude earlier."
Tian Lin apologized on behalf of Mei Xiangu, then sighed and looked at Mei Xiangu: "Miss Mei, I know you have a good cultivation. But in this world, there are always mountains beyond mountains and heavens beyond heavens. It's better for us to be humble."
Without waiting for Mei Xiangu to speak, Tian Lin said, "Don't you want to deal with Senior Brother Zhuang? I advise you to practice diligently for a while. As far as I know, Senior Brother Zhuang has obtained five Dao Fruits. He will be able to achieve the Golden Core Realm in a few days, and I believe that the Nascent Soul Realm is just around the corner for him."
When she heard the name of Zhaixingzi, Mei Xiangu's expression changed slightly.
When Tian Lin first met Mei Xiangu, he saw that she had been inquiring about the news of Zhaixingzi.
Mei Xiangu does have an unusual obsession with picking stars.
"You are talking nonsense, right? No matter how generous the old sect master is, how could he possibly give five Dao fruits to an outer sect disciple?"
Tian Lin was indeed talking nonsense. He only knew that the old sect leader gave Zhaixingzi several Dao fruits, but he had no idea how many there were.
But in order to scare Mei Xiangu, he also swore:
"This just shows that Senior Brother Zhuang is so talented that he is favored by all the elders of the sect. Otherwise, how could he leave your Goddess Sect safely? Otherwise, how could he receive the Dao Fruit reward from the old sect master with the status of an outer sect disciple?"
