Deviant Immortal of Uncanny Dao

Without waiting for Li Huowang ’s answer, the sound of noodles being slurped once again filled the air.

”It ’s not easy to become a disciple who can go out and do tasks.
The immortals choose their own disciples, and it all depends on opportunity if you want to join this line of work, ” Li Zhi began to explain.

”Oh? If it ’s convenient, please explain in detail. ” After all this time spent chatting with this guy, Li Huowang wanted to better understand these things.

The more he understood about this strange world, the safer he would be.

Li Zhi played with his chopsticks in the air a few times.
”If you want to go out and do tasks, you need to have a serious illness, preferably one that is close to death.
If you ’re lucky, the immortals will give you a dream.
If they cure you, then as a reward, you become their disciple who goes out and does tasks. ”

”What do the immortals look like? ”

Li Zhi thought for a moment, as if recalling something.
”Hmm…
how should I put it, they ’re definitely not human-like. ”

After saying this, he used his chopsticks to scoop up some noodles, only to find that they were gone.
Li Zhi excitedly walked back to the pot.

”Not human-like…
” Li Huowang pondered.
If these immortals could communicate and trade, then they must be similar to the evil spirit, You Lao Ye.

It seemed that the people here were all actively or passively trading and interacting with those things.

Li Huowang immediately remembered the wriggling mass of flesh and blood ”big Buddha ” at Zhengde Temple.
The way the monks practiced went from humans, to animals, to the final ”big Buddha, ” in a gradual process.

When he thought back to the abilities of the seven Buddhas he encountered before, which could bestow flesh and blood to You Lao Ye and even grow a thousand hands of flesh and blood themselves, it was not difficult to conclude that the monks at Zhengde Temple obtained their flesh and blood-related abilities through that kind of practice.

”Perhaps trading and interacting with different things can obtain different supernatural abilities, which may be the origin of their different sects? ” Li Huowang began to have a preliminary understanding of this world.

At this moment, Li Zhi returned with his noodles.
The noodles in the bowl were piled high and there was no water mixed in.

As soon as he squatted down, he began to complain while eating.
”Let me tell you, being a disciple who goes out and does tasks is not a good job.
If you can avoid it, then avoid it.
There are so many problems, and there are also the Three Calamities and Three Disasters.
Plus, the pay isn ’t great… ”

After listening to his long complaints, Li Huowang couldn ’t help but interrupt.
”Then why do you go out and do tasks? What can you ask the immortals to do? ”

After giving Li Huowang a glance, Li Zhi replied, ”Anything and everything.
Exorcism, healing, changing one ’s luck, weddings and funerals, fortune telling, and Feng Shui. ”

”So powerful? They can do everything? ”

”Uh-huh, each immortal has different abilities.
If you encounter a problem that your own immortal can ’t solve, you can always ask another immortal for help. ”

Hearing this, Li Huowang ’s expression became serious.
”What if someone is being haunted by something? Can they solve it? ”

”If they ’re being haunted by something, then they ’ve run into an evil spirit.
Of course it can be solved. ”

”Are you sure? It ’s not something ordinary. ” Li Huowang thought of Danyang Zi and looked at the person in front of him.

No matter how he looked at it, this guy seemed unreliable.

”Hey, why don ’t you try it? It ’s only fifty copper coins.
Are you afraid I ’ll run away with the money? ” Li Zhi belched after swallowing the noodles in his mouth, and continued to speak non-stop.

”Fifty copper coins is your reward? ” The price he had to pay was far lower than what Li Huowang had thought.

”My money is my money, and the immortals ’ reward is the immortals ’ reward.
They have to be calculated separately. ” Li Zhi chewed on the noodles in his mouth and swallowed them down, then continued.
”And what about my tea money? It ’s also fifty copper coins.
Don ’t bargain.
It ’s been a tradition for over three hundred years, and it hasn ’t changed.
Of course, you need to use new coins.
Don ’t use those shoddy coins with clipped edges.
As for the immortals ’ reward…
you ’ll have to negotiate with them yourself. ” ”No, you can ’t negotiate.
You have to let the immortal beings pick whatever they want, and in most cases, they won ’t take worldly possessions like money. ”

”They can pick whatever they want? And they don ’t want money? ” Li Huowang felt uneasy.
If he really traded with them, what would these immortal beings take?

”What did the immortal beings take from others before? ”

”Who knows? Don ’t ask me. ” Li Zhi began to lick his bowl meticulously.

”Those who had something taken by the immortal beings can ’t talk about it.
It ’s taboo, and it brings bad luck. ”

”Aren ’t you a shaman? Don ’t you know? ”

”I ’m just a servant of the immortal beings.
I only invite them here.
I don ’t care about anything else.
I ’m paid so little that I can ’t be bothered with those things. ” Compared to the monks of Zhengde Temple and Danyang Zi, Li Zhi seemed carefree and detached.

”What, do you want to try it? Who got possessed? ” Li Zhi used his chopsticks to pick his teeth while looking around at the others in the distance.

The main topic was right in front of them, but Li Huowang remained patient and asked, ”Li Zhi, you ’ve traveled far and wide.
You must have dealt with many things.
Do you know how one can get possessed? ”

Li Zhi shook his head impatiently.
”I can ’t be bothered to remember those things.
I barely make fifty copper coins for each deal, and I can barely afford to eat.
Why should I risk my life? If it raised the price to five hundred copper coins, I would remember it clearly. ”

”They won ’t let me raise the price, and they won ’t let me do anything else.
It ’s really frustrating.
By the way, real man, you Taoist priests must make a lot of money doing rituals, right? How much can you make in one ritual? ”

Li Huowang looked back at the motionless woman with the red hood behind him and stood up.
”We ’ve rested enough.
Let ’s continue walking. ”

”Okay.
When do we have dinner? ”

Li Huowang and his group continued walking.
Li Zhi, who had a carefree personality, always tried to chat with them, but they didn ’t respond too warmly.

He spoke and conversed normally, and he didn ’t seem to have any ill intentions.

But good people don ’t always show their true colors.
Li Huowang remained vigilant.

He turned his head slightly and looked at the two people on the other side of the road.
His attention was focused on Twin Soul, the woman with the red hood who didn ’t eat or speak.
The more he looked at her, the more uncomfortable he felt.

Compared to Li Zhi, this woman was obviously more eerie.

Every step she took was precise, and she didn ’t seem like a real person at all.
She seemed more like a puppet being controlled by someone else.

What was even more bizarre was that Li Zhi called this thing his wife.

”Li Shixiong, should we split up from them? ” Bai Lingmiao walked over and suggested.

”Let ’s wait and see for now. ” Li Huowang needed to observe carefully.

If this person wasn ’t lying, then getting rid of Danyang Zi might really depend on the immortal beings he mentioned.
