Chapter 1373 The Old Taoist Priest with Great Cultivation
“Dingle bell…Dingle bell…”
"Heaven and earth, I am the best at fortune-telling. I can tell you about past lives, present lives, cause and effect, and reincarnation. You can't ask for money..."
Just as Lu Chen was strolling leisurely on the street, a crisp bell sound and a familiar opening speech suddenly shocked Lu Chen's body.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Chen couldn't wait to look in the direction of the sound, and saw an old Taoist priest holding a two-meter-high Pingjin sail in his left hand, with a tattered wooden table in front of him.
On the Pingjin sail is written: "Ask about cause and effect and reincarnation, and understand good and bad fortune."
He was sitting behind a wooden table with a broken bell in his right hand, watching the passers-by coming and going, shaking the broken bell and shouting at the top of his voice.
However, no matter how loudly he shouted, no passing monk paid any attention to him.
"Fuck, it's really him!"
Lu Chen took a closer look and his eyes suddenly lit up. The shock and joy in his heart were beyond words.
I saw the old Taoist priest, who was about fifty or sixty years old, with gray hair tied into a Taoist bun, a thin face, sharp eyes, a slight goatee, and wearing a tattered Taoist robe full of patches.
Although he had a good appearance, there was a thumb-sized black mole on his left cheek with a long hair growing on it, which made the old Taoist priest look a little unruly.
But none of these affected the fact that Lu Chen could recognize the old Taoist priest at a glance.
Because this old Taoist priest was none other than the mysterious old Taoist priest who had set up a stall in Yunluo City on Tianyuan Continent and sold the bracelet to Lu Chen not long after Lu Chen traveled through time.
It was also because of that bracelet that Lu Chen obtained the Golden Pearl World, a heaven-defying treasure, which changed his destiny and achieved his current achievements.
Later in Taibai City, the old Taoist priest gave Lu Chen another passage, which guided Lu Chen's direction.
From beginning to end, Lu Chen had only met the old Taoist priest four times, but every time this mysterious old Taoist priest would bring Lu Chen different opportunities.
Lu Chen has always believed that this old Taoist priest must not be an ordinary person, whether in the mortal world or the world of cultivation.
However, what Lu Chen did not expect was that this old Taoist priest would actually appear in the fairyland of Qingqiu Fairy City. How could he not be excited?
If at this time, Lu Chen still didn't know that this old Taoist priest possessed a heaven-shattering cultivation level, and those Immortal Emperors, Semi-Saints, and even Great Gods who had attained enlightenment were all trash, then he might as well buy a piece of tofu and kill himself.
So, Lu Chen took two steps at a time and soon came to the old Taoist priest and said excitedly:
"Senior! It's been a long time since we last met. I guess you must be waiting for me here. How about a chat?"
The reason why Lu Chen asked this was not without purpose. It was mainly because in his opinion, if the old Taoist priest was unwilling to see him, he might never have the chance to meet the old Taoist priest in his life.
Upon hearing this, the old Taoist priest looked up and down at Lu Chen, who had a calm smile on his face, touched the mole on his face, and seemed to recognize Lu Chen. Then he waved his hand gently, as if nothing had changed.
However, Lu Chen was shocked to find that he and the old Taoist priest had already left the existing space. They existed in reality, but not in reality. They had even jumped out of the Three Realms. It was very ethereal and mysterious.
Lu Chen was sure that this move was 100% a great magical power, and the application of the law of space had reached its peak.
Just as Lu Chen was shocked, the old Taoist priest's chuckle rang in his ears:
"It's you, kid! Why are you running to me instead of looking for an opportunity to break through? Don't try to get close to me. I'm not familiar with you."
After several contacts, Lu Chen understood the old Taoist's temper to some extent. He hurriedly took out a jar of immortal wine brewed from the Five Elements Dao Fruit from his storage ring and offered it to him without hesitation.
"It is my honor to meet you again, Senior. Please allow me to offer you three glasses of wine."
Having said that, Lu Chen shamelessly sat down by himself, then took out two jade bowls from the Golden Pearl World and poured two bowls of wine into them.
The old Taoist priest glanced at the wine in the jade bowl, and before Lu Chen could finish his prepared speech, he said unhappily:
"Using the Five Elements Dao Fruit to brew wine, you're really wasting it. But for the sake of this fine wine, if you have something to say, just say it. But don't delay my business."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen solemnly raised his wine bowl, his eyes gleaming with sincerity. He bowed deeply to the old Taoist priest and said, "This first glass of wine is to thank you for allowing me to travel to this world. Your grace of rebirth is like that of a parent. I am toasting you here."
After saying that, he raised his head and drank the bowl of wine. Although Lu Chen was not entirely sure whether his time travel was related to the mysterious old Taoist priest in front of him,
But he knew that the old Taoist priest was mysterious and unpredictable, so he said this not only as a way to verify the truth, but also as an attempt to bring the two closer together.
After all, if you can get close to such a big guy, what does it matter if you are called "father and son"?
The old Taoist priest did not directly answer Lu Chen's question, nor did he deny his guess. He just silently drank the wine in the bowl.
Then he looked at Lu Chen quietly, with a look that seemed to have some deep meaning.
Seeing this scene, Lu Chen was ecstatic and hurriedly filled the glasses for the two of them again. When he raised the second bowl of wine, he said with a little excitement:
"This second cup is to thank you, senior, for gifting me the Golden Pearl World, a heaven-defying treasure, which has allowed me to embark on the path of cultivation. I cannot repay such kindness, and I am willing to repay you with my own body, always by your side, and honor you." After saying this, he drank the wine in the bowl in another gulp.
This time, the old Taoist still did not speak, but slowly drank the wine in his hand.
Seeing this, Lu Chen was immediately overjoyed, knowing that his strategy was beginning to work, so he took advantage of the good atmosphere and quickly filled the third bowl of wine for the two of them.
Then, he picked up one of the bowls and said with a smile, "This is the third cup. Thank you for meeting me again. If you have any arrangements, please let me know. I will definitely do my best to complete the task, even if it means going through fire and water."
After saying that, Lu Chen raised his head again, drank the wine in the bowl, and then looked at the old Taoist priest happily. Now he just wanted to hug the old Taoist priest's thighs tightly.
However, after the old Taoist finished drinking, he smiled and said:
"You have a good plan, but I, the old Taoist, feel that according to what you said, you are not repaying a favor, but repaying evil with kindness."
"Uh..." Lu Chen's thoughts were exposed. No matter how thick-skinned he was, he couldn't help but blush in embarrassment when facing the old Taoist priest.
But he quickly adjusted himself and continued to lick his face and said...
