Honghuang: How could I, Taiyi, have any bad intentions?

Chapter 45 Taiyi: Poor Taoist Jia Ming

Then San Xiu stood up, bowed and said, "Greetings, fellow Taoist!
I wonder which fairy mountain you are practicing in?
What are you doing here?"

The three cultivators were able to be so polite, which meant that their realm was naturally higher than that displayed by Taiyi.

With reservations in mind, he dared not be too reckless.

When Taiyi heard this, he replied: "I am Jia Ming, a wandering cultivator who has traveled here.

Seeing the fairy light surrounding this mountain, I thought there must be immortal friends practicing here.

Out of curiosity, I came to visit.

Please forgive me for any intrusion!"

Upon hearing this, the wandering cultivators looked at each other, stretched out their hands and said, "You are a guest, Brother Jia, please take a seat."

Taiyi cupped his hands and said, "Thank you three Taoist friends for your hospitality!"

After some greetings, Taiyi took his seat.

As soon as he sat down, Taiyi asked, "I see that the three of you have great cultivation, but I haven't asked you for your immortal names yet.

I wonder which sect this disciple is from?"

Upon hearing this, the leading monk replied: "I am Xuan Qingzi, a disciple of Jiejiao!

The person on the left is Han Yan.

The person on the right is Ma Fangyuan.

We are all disciples of Jiejiao."

Taiyi pretended to be surprised when he heard this and said, "I never thought you were a disciple of a saint!

I am very polite! "

The three cultivators all waved their hands and said, "No! No!

Thanks to the saint’s kindness, we are able to see his face.

I am ashamed to say that although we are disciples of the saint, our cultivation is not as good as that of Fellow Daoist Jia."

When Taiyi heard this, he was immediately moved.

Dao: "My three Taoist friends are too modest!

I have achieved this level of accomplishment thanks to my wide circle of friends.

Communicate more with fellow practitioners, discuss the Dao often, and practice diligently.

Only by chance did I achieve this level of accomplishment.

How can I compare with the three Taoist friends?
The three Taoist friends can listen to the saints expound on the great Dao and can also often discuss the Dao with many of their fellow disciples.

Perhaps soon, I will call the three Taoist friends "seniors."

Upon hearing this, San Xiu smiled and said, "Daoyou Jia, you are great!
How could it be so easy to improve one's cultivation?
We have also been trapped in this realm for countless years."

Taiyi heard this and said, "My three fellow Taoists, it is fate that we meet this time.

How about we discuss this?
Of course, when it comes to the Dao, the more practitioners there are, the more they will gain.

If the three Taoists are willing, you can invite your fellow disciples to come.

Anyway, I have nothing to do recently, so it’s okay to wait a while.”

San Xiu felt depressed when he heard this.

Invite fellow students?
Invite a ghost!
Given what they did, once their fellow disciples came, they would inevitably find out after doing it so many times.

In this situation, how dare we let our fellow disciples come?
Although some things are tacitly known by everyone, they cannot be really exposed to others.

At most, I would show the final product to my fellow students.

But the process cannot be spoken of, let alone mentioned.

Everyone is sensible and won't ask too many questions, just assume that you have seized it while exorcising demons and monsters.

Then Xuan Qingzi said: "It is a bit inconvenient to invite fellow disciples.

My fellow disciples who are familiar with me are all in seclusion and practicing at this time.

If not, they should have come when we discussed the Dao earlier."

When Taiyi heard this excuse, he felt something in his heart.

Retreat and practice?

How can it be?

I’m afraid you don’t dare to invite your fellow disciples to come?

Try it again. If he still refuses, don't care if there is someone else behind him.

I can only pretend that there is no one here.

Then Taiyi sighed and said, "Alas!

I encountered a demon before and wanted to invite fellow Taoists to go and fight him.

Now it seems that I have to go alone." San Xiu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

Xuan Qingzi asked anxiously, "May I ask where is the devil, Brother Jia?"

Taiyi shook his head upon hearing this and said, “I’d better not say anything!

That demon should be very powerful. If the three Taoist friends can invite their fellow disciples, I can also tell my friends.

Now that you cannot invite fellow disciples, I will not mention it to avoid implicating you."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Qingzi glanced at Han Yan and Ma Fangyuan.

But he signaled them to take action against the Taoist friend Jia in front of them.

Han Yan glanced at Xuan Qingzi and immediately understood.

Then he stretched out his hand and pointed, and a brand new teacup appeared in front of Taiyi.

Afterwards, Han Yan rolled up his sleeves with one hand and turned the teapot with the other to pour tea for Taiyi.

He also said: "Fellow Daoist Jia, please come in!
Let's not just talk, let's have some tea.

By the way, please tell us in detail about the devil.

We are disciples of the saint, so we should take it as our responsibility to eliminate demons and defend the truth."

Upon hearing this, Taiyi picked up the teacup and brought it to his mouth.

Just as he was about to drink it, he said, “Hey!

I just came from a tribe and encountered three evil beasts who were kidnapping people for food.

I wanted to beat them to death, but I didn't expect those three beasts to say they had a master.

That is why I came here temporarily to invite fellow Taoists."

Seeing that Taiyi had already brought the teacup to his lips, he turned around and started talking.

San Xiu felt depressed.

When can't you speak?

Can you drink the tea first?
How can I dare to take action if you don't drink the tea?
So Xuan Qingzi said with a fake smile: "Fellow Daoist Jia, it's not too late for us to talk slowly after we have some tea.

If the four of us can't solve it, I can ask other fellow disciples for help.

After all, it is a matter of exorcising demons and defending the Way, and my disciples as saints will never refuse it."

Taiyi heard this and held up the teacup, smiling and saying, "Oh?

is it?

If they were facing their fellow disciples, would they be able to do it?"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Qingzi knew that his true identity had been exposed, but he was hampered by the strength of the Taoist friend Jia in front of him.

Their chances of winning are not very great.

In other words, the probability of a sure win is low.

When monks fight, if they can gain an advantage, they should try their best.

If the Taoist priest named Jia drinks the tea, their chances of winning will be greatly improved.

It can even be said to be a sure thing.

Therefore, we still need to make the necessary efforts.

Xuan Qingzi said without changing his expression: "Fellow Daoist Jia, there is no need to worry!

If there really are such fellow disciples, we will also clear out the sect.

Fellow Daoist Jia, please tell us in detail after you have some tea. By then, we can make a judgment and decide how many fellow disciples to ask for help."

Taiyi still held the teacup when he heard this and said, "If that's the case, I'll just speak frankly.

There is not just one demon, but three."

The third cultivator's expression changed when he heard this, and he asked, "What do you mean, Brother Jia?

Are you doubting us?
How could a disciple of my saint do such a thing? "

Taiyi glanced at Sanxiu and asked, “What’s the matter?
Did I say what I did?"

At this point, San Xiu also knew that it was impossible to trick Taoist Jia into drinking the tea.

Xuan Qingzi immediately said: "Huh!

You, a Taoist, know that we are disciples of the Saint, so how dare you?"

Before Xuan Qingzi could continue, Taiyi interrupted and said, "Disciple of the Saint?
My uncle has several direct disciples and more than a dozen registered disciples.

I have seen all these people, but I don’t know when he took you three evil creatures away.”

I heard Taiyi mention the word "uncle master".

San Xiu was immediately shocked and asked, "Which saint's disciple are you from?
There is no monk named Jia among the saint's disciples. Have you been deceiving us?"
