After the notice was posted, the townspeople immediately swarmed over. Ling Yun followed to take a look and saw the words written on the paper:
Now there is an evil three-tailed fox living in a black cave ten miles outside the town. It lurks during the day and comes out at night to harass the town, rob poultry, cattle and sheep, and even hurt people. However, its evil magic is very powerful. Now I specially invite a Taoist master to eliminate the evil for the people. Xiaochi Town is willing to thank him with five hundred taels of silver.
Ling Yun smiled and took off the notice.
The people around him all cried out in surprise and looked at the handsome young man. Ling Yun smiled and said," I'm Ling Yun, a disciple of the Green Cloud Sect. I'm here to cultivate under the orders of my master. I'm here today to do a meritorious deed for all of you. I'll get rid of this demon for you."”
The people around him stared at him. At this time, the mayor and the others rushed over and said carefully,"This…brother, that demon is very powerful. No, cough cough, no…his life might be in danger.”
"Why?" Ling Yun smiled. You don't believe me?"
"No, no, I just wanted to remind you."”
Ling Yun pointed at the wall and said,"Is this wall useful to you? Would there be any problems if it was destroyed?”The mayor was stunned for a moment." It doesn't have much use normally. It's just a notice. What do you want?"”
"What are you doing, hmph!" Ling Yun struck out with his palm, and a powerful wave of mana blasted out, instantly turning the wall into dust.
" Wow..." The townspeople were all dumbfounded. Then, they all beamed with joy. They thought that since this young man had such great magic power, it would naturally be easy for him to get rid of the three-tailed fox. The mayor was the first to walk out. He laughed non-stop and said,"Little brother, you're very capable. I'll leave it to you.”
Ling Yun nodded.
The mayor paused for a moment, and a trace of hesitation flashed across his face. Then, he said,"However, there is one thing that I hope little brother can understand.”
"What is it?" Ling Yun asked.
" As for the reward," the mayor said," it's the hard-earned money of the townspeople. I hope that you can wait until you get rid of the demon before…"
" No need, no need…" Ling Yun waved his hand and said,""Money is just a worldly possession. I am a cultivator, and subduing demons and devils is my duty. There is no need to talk about money.”
The mayor was overjoyed when he heard this. There was such a good thing, so it was naturally better. "Thank you, little brother, thank you, little brother…"
After asking the mayor for the location of the Black Stone Cave, Ling Yun walked towards it. However, he was a little curious as to why he didn't see the rock from the Titanium Sect. It must be because of the time difference.
Halfway through, he suddenly heard a voice beside him. It was a little anxious and a little anxious."Ah, little brother, your forehead is covered with dark clouds, and there's a deathly aura on your face.”
Ling Yun was shocked. He turned around and saw an old man standing beside him. His hair and beard were all white, and his face was clean and ordinary. He looked like a crane and a celestial being. He was a person who had attained the Dao. At first glance, he was respectful. Beside the old man was a little girl of eight or nine years old. She had two braids and was lively and cute. She was holding a stick of candied haws in her hand and eating them with relish. The old man was holding a bamboo pole with a white cloth hanging on it. There were four words written on it: Immortal Shows the Way.
Ling Yun immediately knew who they were. The old man must be Zhou Yixian, the most mysterious person in the Celestial Eradication. The little girl must be his granddaughter, the Ghost Dao genius Xiao Huan who loved eating candied haws.
Ling Yun smiled and said,"Sir, what do you mean?”Zhou Yixian shook his head and said,""Little brother, forgive this old man for being blunt, but you're about to face a great disaster. Why don't you step aside and let me take a look at you?”
"Alright then. I'll have to trouble you to read my fortune. May I know your name, sir?" Ling Yun nodded.”
Zhou Yixian chuckled as she pointed to a large tree by the side of the road.""Let's talk over there. My surname is Zhou, and my name is Zhou Yixian. This is my granddaughter, Little Huan.”"I'm Ling Yun." Zhou Yixian nodded and turned to leave. Ling Yun quickly followed.
When they reached the tree, Little Scary whispered something into Zhou Yixian's ear, causing her expression to change.
"Old Master Zhou, what's wrong?" Ling Yun asked.”Zhou Yixian replied," It's nothing. To tell you the truth, Brother Ling, when I first started my career, I set a rule that I have to collect money for my fortune-telling. So…"
"How much is it?" Ling Yun asked.”
Zhou Yixian smiled and said,""Ten taels of silver each time."
Ling Yun touched his pocket and found that he still had ten taels of silver. He quickly took them out and handed them to Zhou Yixian.
Zhou Yixian put away the silver and said,""Why don't you show me your hand, little brother?”
Ling Yun nodded and extended his hand. Zhou Yixian smiled and was about to take a look when Xiao Huan suddenly came over and grabbed Ling Yun's hand. She imitated her grandfather and looked at his hand a few times. She chuckled and ran away again. However, Ling Yun's hand was left with a few pieces of sweet rock candy. It was very uncomfortable. Ling Yun's mouth twitched.
Zhou Yixian handed him a handkerchief and smiled,""This old man's granddaughter is naughty, little brother, don't blame her.”
Ling Yun smiled and wiped his hands clean with the handkerchief. He looked up and saw Zhou Yixian and Xiao Huan standing together again. Xiao Huan whispered something into Zhou Yixian's ear, and Zhou Yixian's expression turned ugly.
"What's the matter, Old Master?" Ling Yun asked.”
Zhou Yixian said," It's nothing, little brother. I can see that your glabella is dark and dark clouds are covering your head. It's obvious that your luck is not good. Your future will be filled with dangers. Why don't you turn back and everything will be resolved naturally?"”
"Is that all?" Ling Yun asked.”
Zhou Yixian nodded.
"But I have something urgent to attend to in the East…" Ling Yun replied.
Zhou Yixian said," Little brother, what can be more important than your own life? Let's go back."”After he finished speaking, he cupped his hands and said," It's fate that we met in Jianghu. We'll meet again in the future. We'll part ways here."”With that, he turned around and left.
Ling Yun looked at Zhou Yixian and his grandson's departing backs and couldn't help but frown."Is this Zhou Yixian really a peerless expert?”
Shaking his head, he turned around and headed towards the Black Stone Cave.
Turning around the corner, Zhou Yixian and Xiao Huan hid themselves at the same time. They turned around and poked their heads out to look at Ling Yun, only to see that he was already far away.
"Hehe, I've obtained another ten taels of silver.”Zhou Yixian's expression suddenly changed. She took out the silver from her waist and looked at it carefully. She couldn't stop laughing. However, Xiao Huan's expression was calm. She glanced at him and said,"Grandpa, why are you doing this again?”
Zhou Yixian chuckled and put away the silver. He then said to Xiao Huan,""By the way, you said that you couldn't see through his fortune. What's going on?”
"I really don't know about that brother's fate.”Xiao Huan sounded a little sad as she said," His past is complicated and layered. I can't tell if it's real or fake. I can't tell at all. As for her face, I can't tell either." Mysterious and unpredictable, I can't figure out anything about him, so there's nothing I can be sure of about him!”
" Is that so…" Zhou Yixian muttered,""Who cares! Anyway, he had already gotten the silver, so there was no need to care about so much. Fortunately, this kid was easy to deceive and left so easily. Let's go! Grandpa will take you out for a meal…"
"Let's go buy some candied haws first!" Xiao Huan said.”
" This…" Zhou Yixian was about to reply when her eyes suddenly lit up. She stepped forward and blocked the path of a fat woman who was wearing gold and silver."Madam, I see that your forehead is covered in dark clouds, your glabella is black, and your face is filled with the aura of death. Why don't you let me read your fortune for you?”
Xiao Huan was speechless, but her grandfather kept winking at her. She could only follow him and pretend to be cute and innocent as she carefully looked at the rich and fat woman's face.
