About ten meters above the crowd, above a mass of dark clouds, a drawn-out voice came from the sky.
Even though more than ten flames lit up the night sky, it was still night time. Moreover, no matter how bright the flames were, they could not light up the sky!
Thus, the hundred plus people below were only able to see a mass of black clouds. As for the owner of the voice that came from above the black clouds, no one was able to see it.
Since the Cataclysm, too many unbelievable things had happened on Earth.
Liver-exploding monsters, people with superpowers, the Alliance's werecreatures, mechanical beasts, extraterrestrial creatures, bloodline awakeners, exotic beasts, and so on.
Strange things that had never been heard of before happened one after another. It was completely beyond people's common sense.
Now that such a mysterious guest had appeared in the sky, not only were the people that Zhao Gang brought with him stunned, even the bandits were stunned.
However, in order to stop Zhao Gang and his group, they had spent a lot of time and effort. Of course, they did not want to give up just like that.
Therefore, after being stunned for a few seconds, the leader of the bandits gathered his courage and asked respectfully, "May I ask who you are?"
The dark cloud in the sky descended two meters and the familiar voice came from it again.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord! The Poor Way is Tiancan, a disciple of Taiyi Zhenren of Purple Cloud Cave in Yuxu Mountain. When he saw that the world was in deep trouble, he came down the mountain under his master's order to help the people out of their misery! "
"Purple Cloud Cave?"
The leader of the bandits lowered his head and muttered a few times. He frowned slightly.
Carefully recalling the words of the mysterious Taoist, the leader of the bandits felt that something was not right.
Fortunately, one of his underlings reminded him in time, "Second Leader, I remember that the Taiyi Zhenren we heard about before is from Yuxu Mountain's Golden Light Cave?"
That's right!
The leader of the bandits slapped his forehead and raised his head to ask, "Tiancan Zhenren, right? Isn't the legendary Taiyi Zhenren in Golden Light Cave? And there seems to be someone called Nezha, right? "
"Cough cough — Benefactor, you have a good memory. You even know my Senior Brother Nezha. Not bad, not bad. As for my master's cave residence, you mortals don't know. My master moved a hundred years ago. Do I have to report this to you mortals? "
Moved?
The more the bandit leader listened, the more he felt that this was nonsense. He looked up, but he couldn't see the Daoist priest in the sky. He couldn't help but cup his hands again. "I see. Legend has it that Taiyi Zhenren is an immortal, but I wonder if you can let us mortals take a look at the true face of an immortal? "
"This … isn't very appropriate, right?"
Seeing that the mysterious person in the sky was hesitating, the bandit leader was even more certain that the other party was purposely playing tricks.
Thus, his voice faded.
"Zhenren Tiancan, since you don't want to show your true face, then let's mind our own business. Please forgive me for not keeping you company! Little Seven, bring him back! "
"Wait!"
The voice in the dark clouds shouted in a deep voice.
The bandit leader turned his head to look at the sky. At the same time, his subordinates gathered around him in time. They drew their weapons and looked at the dark clouds vigilantly.
"What? Spiritual Master Tiancan, are you going to attack us? Although you say that you are an Immortal disciple, we are not to be trifled with! If a fight really breaks out, I'm afraid the first ones to suffer would be these commoners, right? "
"Almsgiver, you have misunderstood!"
As he spoke, the dark clouds descended again. They were only four meters above the ground. This time, everyone finally saw the true face of the mysterious Taoist.
At such a height, the Taoist's face was completely illuminated by the light of the fire!
The Taoist had five strands of beard and a jade-like face. He had a high Taoist bun on his head and wore a grey Taoist robe. What was different from ordinary Taoists was that the horsetail whisk in his hand was vermilion. Even the long hair on the horsetail whisk was vermilion.
At this moment, the Taoist was sitting cross-legged with his eyes slightly closed. He looked unfathomable.
He really looked like an enlightened Taoist!
Seeing this, the bandit leader had more trust in the other party's identity.
However, at this moment, the underling who had warned him just now leaned over his ear again and pointed at the dark clouds where the Taoist was sitting. "Second leader, look, look carefully …"
Hmm?
When the bandit leader heard this, he focused his gaze and finally discovered that something was amiss.
"Immortal Tiancan, as far as I know, aren't the clouds under the feet of the masters who ride on the clouds? Why is yours black? "
"Eh … Well, the Poor Way. I didn't check when I was about to go down the mountain. Why do you care so much? It doesn't matter if it's black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it's a good cat! If you have the ability, you can also create a dark cloud for me! "
The Spiritual Master Tiancan was obviously impatient. At the same time, he glanced at the dozen girls in the middle of the commoners and his expression changed slightly.
Just when the Spiritual Master Tiancan was looking at the girls, Hu Lai, who had a big belly, happened to meet his eyes. Hu Lai's eyes lit up. She walked over leisurely and looked up. Then she covered her mouth and giggled.
"Yo! Spiritual Master Tiancan, you were so high just now that we didn't see it clearly. Now we finally see it clearly. That's not a cloud under your butt, right? "
Hearing this, the Spiritual Master Tiancan's face twitched unnaturally.
At the same time, the bandit leader fixed his eyes on the cloud and immediately became furious!
"What a pretentious Daoist priest! That's a group of old crows under your butt. How dare you lie to us that you're riding on clouds? We were almost fooled by you! Get down here if you have the guts. I'll skin you alive! "
Zhao Gang, who was seriously injured, was almost in despair after being injured by the bandits. However, he did not expect that a Taoist master would suddenly appear and rescue him. Hope was reignited in him. Moreover, the people worshipped the Crippled Taoist master as if he was a real god. They almost knelt down to thank him.
However, they didn't expect that Hu Lai, who had joined them halfway, would disturb them.
Just now, the commoners' attention was on the Spiritual Master Tiancan, just like the bandit leader. They didn't notice the dark cloud under his butt at all.
Now, after Hu Lai's reminder, even the commoners could see that the Spiritual Master Tiancan was riding on a group of black crows.
But so what?
Even if the Spiritual Master Tiancan was a fake, so what? After all, he was here to save them.
But now, he had been exposed by this random person of unknown origin!
Yun Ge, who had a grudge against Hu Lai, walked to Feng Ying's side and shouted, "Feng Ying, you should see it clearly now. This Hu Lai is obviously up to no good! Maybe he's in cahoots with those bandits! "
