Chapter 991 Representative Lai
What kind of person can capture someone, throw them into a goldfish tank, and raise them in captivity?
This is a very strange and seemingly absurd question...at first glance.
But Mo Mo and Ling Feng fell into deep thought because of Zhan'er's question... People feed people, people eat people, is there such a fish tank somewhere?
This idea suddenly appeared in the minds of the two of them, like a bolt of lightning that they had no time to avoid, directly hitting their scalps numb and making them sweat.
Momo's magic power was suddenly out of control, rushing around in his body. His face turned red, green, and pale all of a sudden, and his body was shaking slightly.
"The great road is invisible, giving birth to heaven and earth; the great road is ruthless, running the sun and the moon..."
Suddenly, a deep voice came closer from far away, and what this voice was reciting was a meditation scripture that was widely circulated in the Taoist world and was well-known to everyone.
"...I don't know its name, so I call it Tao. Tao is clear and turbid, moving and still; the sky is clear and the earth is turbid, the sky is moving and the earth is quiet..."
Among the sounds of the recited scriptures, there were even crisper ringtones. The appearance of this ringtone made Momo's uncontrolled mana seem to find guidance and gradually return to its original trajectory.
"When the original stream comes to an end, all things come into being. What is pure is the source of turbidity. What is moving is the basis of tranquility. If people can always be tranquil, everything in heaven and earth will return."
At this time, both Mo Mo and Ling Feng took a long breath of turbid air, and their breathing returned to smoothness.
I saw a very young-looking man coming, but his hair was already gray—if his hair had turned black, he would be about twenty-one or twelve years old.
Young and gray-haired?
The young man also held a small rattle in his hand. The first ringing sound should have come from this rattle.
"Thank you." Mo Mo cupped his fists towards the young man and said gratefully - he knew that he was in a more dangerous state because of Zhan'er's unintentional question. If it weren't for the help of this young white-haired man, , the consequences may be quite troublesome.
"It's nothing, I just happened to pass by. I saw that you two were in a bad state, so I read a meditation scripture." The young man with white hair smiled slightly: "If you two weren't good at it, you wouldn't be able to do it. It doesn’t work.”
"Anyway..." Momo shook his head.
But Ling Feng looked very respectful at this time. He looked at the young white-haired man and said quickly: "Representative Lai, why are you out?"
"Lai... Lai for what?" Mo Mo was stunned and subconsciously looked at Ling Feng.
As a member of the relevant department, ordinary people are naturally unable to manage the Taoist and Demonic circles, so Lingfeng's cultivation is not weak. At least Momo felt that the other party's power fluctuations were not weaker than his own. .
Ling Feng could only be heard saying seriously at this time: "This is the contemporary successor of Buyi Taoism, and he is also one of the representatives of the National Taoist Association Committee."
Ha...
The National Taoist Association has popped up. You guys are really keeping pace with the times...
Mo Mo didn't know where to start complaining... However, he had heard his master mention it about the Buyi Dao.
There is only one descendant in each generation, and every Penglai tea party... No, the sacrifices in the final stage of the Penglai Conference are all the work that the Buyi Dao is responsible for presiding over.
And because of the special nature of Buyi Dao, basically many people in the Taoist world pay great respect to the successors of Buyi Dao - who has no trouble and wants to have Buyi Dao give advice?
"This should be the descendant of Longhu Mountain." Representative Lai looked at Mo Mo at this time and said with a smile: "Your name is Mo Mo, right."
"Uh...you know me?" Mo Mo said in shock.
Representative Lai nodded and said: "I haven't seen it in person, but I have seen some photos. Your master, Taoist Changhe, often posts some photos of your practice in the group, so the fellow Taoists in the group know it to some extent."
"Oh...I see." Mo Mo nodded, and then suddenly said in shock: "Wait a minute, what do you usually do?"
"Send photos." Representative Lai said: "In our official chat group... Oh, you haven't been pulled in yet."
Mo Mo twitched the corner of his mouth at this time and said reluctantly: "I have heard of this official chat group, but it seems that only the leaders of various sects can join, and the standards for joining the group are quite strict. I should be not good enough. Far away. But..."
That old pervert actually secretly posted photos of himself in the group...
"But?" Representative Lai blinked curiously.
"It's nothing, actually." Mo Mo quickly shook his head, "Anyway, thank you for your help this time. I will remember this favor. If you have any help in the future, just come to me."
"Maybe, but not necessarily." Representative Lai smiled casually at this time, "But you'd better be careful lately."
"Recently?"
"Anyway, be careful in everything." Representative Lai didn't say much, but looked at Zhan'er with his eyes fixed.
But Zhan'er just looked at the rattle held by Representative Lai with a curious expression and didn't pay attention to Representative Lai's gaze at all.
Representative Lai suddenly said: "Do you think this pond is bigger than a fish tank and these goldfish will be more free?"
Zhan'er nodded.
Representative Lai said: "But have you ever thought about it? In a fish tank, a goldfish is safe. You don't even have to worry about eating, because the person who raises it will feed it on time. But it's not necessarily the case in a pond. , they may not be able to find food, and they will starve to death if they don’t have anything to eat.”
Zhan'er was stunned, blinked, and then looked towards the pond.
Representative Lai did not stop talking, but continued: "Let me talk about it again. In addition to goldfish, there are other fish in the pond. Big fish eat small fish. It is very possible that these small goldfish are hungry and haven't eaten yet. Before you can find it, it will be eaten by the big fish.”
"But why do they always hit the fish tank? Don't they want to get out?" Zhan'er asked puzzledly.
Representative Lai said calmly: "In a pond, wouldn't goldfish swim to the edge? As long as there is a border, there will be an end, and they will also swim to the end of the pond... So, in the fish tank and in the pond , how many differences are there? They just jumped from a small fish tank to another larger fish tank.”
Zhan'er remained silent.
Representative Lai suddenly smiled at this time, "But there is a kind of fish tank that has no end or boundary. Do you want to know?"
Zhan'er raised his head and nodded vigorously.
Representative Lai now walked up to Zhan'er, stretched out his finger and nodded on Zhan'er's chest, "Here, the fish tank here is endless."
Zhan'er subconsciously looked at the place where Representative Lai pointed at himself, and said in confusion: "You mean, chest?"
Representative Lai smiled and said nothing, then picked up the rattle in his hand and said pleasantly: "Do you like this? I'll give it to you."
"It can't be done." Mo Mo said quickly at this time - the figure emitted by this thing can channel the chaotic magic power in his body. It must be a precious magic weapon - although he and Zhan'er are not from the same sect, Yang Taizi has made a temporary friendship. Entrusted to him, Momo felt that he was a temporary guardian.
"It's just a gadget." Representative Lai smiled easily at this time: "I bought it casually at the street stall at the train station, don't worry about it."
With that said, Representative Lai put the rattle directly into Zhan'er's hand, then looked at Ling Feng and said: "I have a meeting with the representative from the Demon Realm tonight to discuss the next thing. I'll go back first. Get ready. Captain Ling, take care of these two fellow Taoists.”
"I understand, Representative Lai, I will do a good job." Ling Feng stood up straight at this time.
It wasn't until Representative Lai left completely that Mo Mo breathed out slowly, as if waking up from a dream, "This person is not very old, but his cultivation level is so high... I also boast that I am as popular as the younger generation." Yeah, it seems a bit too arrogant.”
"Of course." Captain Ling Feng said with admiration at this time: "There is only one successor in each generation of Buyi Dao, and it is only passed down to one generation every hundred years. Only one person in millions can be qualified unless he is extremely talented. This Lai The representative heard that he experienced ninety-nine previous lives in one night, and finally became enlightened and officially became the successor of the contemporary Buyi Dao.”
"What's his... name?" Mo Mo suddenly asked, asking the name of this man who was probably the strongest among his generation.
"Lai Caisheng."
……
……
The rooms that Lingfeng arranged for Momo and Zhan'er were pretty good.
Momo, who had just finished taking a shower, was on the phone at the moment, cursing: "...You old pervert, you secretly filmed your own apprentice and used it as capital for Shuiqun? Go to hell!"
Angry, Momo left the phone on the bed. As for the other bed, Zhan'er started playing with the rattle given by Lai Caisheng.
Mo Mo said angrily: "Zhan'er, have you done your meditation homework today? Your master asked me to supervise your practice, don't be lazy!"
"Okay~~"
After Zhan'er responded lazily, he slowly sat up cross-legged.
But Mo Mo knows that Zhan'er is a guy who will fall asleep within ten minutes once he meditates and does homework, so it is not easy for him to complete his homework and requires constant supervision.
He looked at Zhan'er and suddenly remembered what he had said at the edge of the pond. Mo Mo couldn't help the curiosity in her heart and suddenly asked: "Zhan'er, you said you can communicate with animals...can you hear what they say?"
"Yes." Zhan'er opened his eyes and nodded.
"Then why didn't you tell me before?" Momo sat down.
"Master said not to let outsiders know, so I didn't say anything," Zhan'er said.
"But you...didn't you tell me?" Mo Mo frowned.
"Yes! I forgot! Oops!" Zhan'er quickly covered his mouth with both hands, then looked at Momo nervously, and his eyes widened.
Mo Mo could only rub his forehead and sighed: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about this matter, not even your master... You don't have to cover yourself."
Zhan'er then patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
Mo Mo asked curiously: "Is this ability of yours innate or acquired? Did you practice any special skills?"
"I've been hearing it since I was a child." Zhan'er smiled and said, "I could hear it when I lived in the forest. At that time, many animals in the forest would tell me where there were delicious fruits and where to eat. There is spring water, so I won’t starve.”
"Lin Zi...you grew up in the forest?" Mo Mo looked surprised.
Zhan'er nodded, "I can't remember many things from the past. My master told me that he found me in the woods and took me in when he saw how pitiful I was."
Momo lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.
Not long after, Momo suddenly stood up, walked to the luggage area, and opened the box. He had a brocade box on hand that Yang Taizi had given him. Before leaving, Yang Taizi had told him to open the brocade box when he arrived at Mount Tai.
Momo curiously studied this brocade box on the road and found that it had a cursed seal on it... But this cursed seal had disappeared by now, as if it had been timed.
Momo opened the brocade box and found a smaller box inside, about the size of a palm, with a note from herself.
Momo glanced at the words written on the note, opened her lips slightly, and showed a strange expression.
He frowned, quickly put the brocade box into his pocket, then looked at Zhan'er and said, "I have something to do. Let's go out for a while."
With that said, he rushed out of the room, but within a few seconds, he turned back again, stared at Zhan'er and said: "Remember to finish your meditation homework, and I will bring you something to eat when you come back. Got it? ”
"Okay~ be careful on the road."
Mo Mo hesitated for a while, but finally felt a little worried and locked the door of the room directly. Although Zhan'er can be regarded as a person in the Taoist world, he usually neglects to practice, and his magic power is almost non-existent. At most, he is healthier than ordinary people, so he should not be able to get out.
He hurried to complete the instructions left in the note in the brocade box: give the things to the people on the street. That is to say, leave it to Lai Caisheng - what Momo didn't expect was that he would have to come into contact with this current successor of Buyidao again so soon.
Bang——!
Perhaps because of his distraction, Momo suddenly bumped into something - a girl, younger than him, about eighteen or nineteen years old.
Wearing a purple leather coat, his hair is also white, but it is not the gray-white color of Lai Caisheng, but silver-white. In addition, she was carrying a painting tube on her body, and... and she was chewing puff candy.
The moment she landed, the bubbles the girl blew burst.
Although it looked a bit strange, considering that this place was not an ordinary place, but a gathering point for Taoist members, Mo Mo didn't pay too much attention.
Perhaps he is the descendant of some strange Taoist sect - isn't he himself dyed blond? Who doesn’t have any special hobbies?
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do it, I was just a little anxious. Are you okay?" Mo Mo stretched out his hand to pull the girl up.
But the girl just shook her head, stood up on her own, and walked directly past Mo Mo without saying a word.
Momo shook her head and muttered: "There are so many strange people here."
But just when Momo was about to continue on his way, he suddenly frowned - because he found that the little brocade box he was carrying was missing!
"It's the woman with white hair just now!" Momo slapped her forehead: "Nima, this is not a descendant of the Taoist world, she is simply a descendant of the pirate world!" (End of Chapter)
