Bizarre Cultivation: Starting from Being Beaten Up by Reality

Chapter 79 Tiger Skin Taoist

The spacious carriage was bathed in warm candlelight, and a faint fragrance of orchids wafted from within, much like the captivating aura of an elegant lady.

Lin Fan looked at the carriage with some surprise. Inside the spacious carriage sat a man and two women, who seemed to have just hurriedly pulled the Taoist robe over their shoulders and put it on.

The yellow-green Taoist robe was painted with a four-legged beast with bared teeth and claws, which looked like a tiger but was covered with sharp thorns like a hedgehog.

What's this new design? Before it was a dog, a snake, what's this one? A cat? No, a tiger, I guess.

The girl rubbed her pert pink nose against the greasy face of the middle-aged Taoist priest with his hair in a topknot, and said in a coquettish voice, "Master, that poor wretch has been staring at me the whole time. It's all your fault for suddenly pulling back the curtain; I didn't even have time to put on my clothes."

Although the Taoist robe was loose, it was still a bit too big to cover three people, so one of the girl's long, white legs was exposed, and her five toes were as clear and bright as jade.

She seemed to want to make her "master" jealous. She complained, but secretly moved her body, revealing some of her snow-white peach-like skin. She twisted gently, trying to attract Lin Fan's attention.

Lin Fan could guess what they were doing in the carriage just now with his toes. Wasn't it supposed to be that Taoist priests had to guard their primordial yang and primordial yin? The dog-skinned Taoist priest had complained about this quite a bit.

Wait a minute, Miaozhuzi said that a new Taoist priest would take over Linglong Temple, could it be that...?

As they were pondering, the Taoist priest moved, his large robes peeling off the two women, revealing their snow-white bodies. The two women gasped in surprise, frantically pressing their full breasts against the middle-aged Taoist priest.

Lin Fan calmly watched the scene before him, his eyes neither avoiding nor wandering. "My heart is free of evil, so what is there to avoid?"

The old Taoist priest chuckled and said, "Young man, you have something interesting on you, hmm, that knife in your pocket. Would you be willing to part with it and give it to me?"

Lin Fan was startled. He had kept the black knife hidden in his bosom the whole time. How did the Taoist know?

Lin Fan twirled the sickle in his hand. "Daoist Master, as you can see, I am just a farmer. This sickle is all I have. It's my means of livelihood, and I cannot give it to you."

The Taoist priest seemed to only then notice the sickle in Lin Fan's hand. "Oh, this is also an interesting thing. One is a coincidence, but two... Young man, you are not an ordinary person, are you? Never mind, this sickle is useless to me. I want your 'Canine Tooth,' that black short sword. I won't take yours for nothing. Ten taels of silver, how about I buy your sword?"

His tone was extremely kind, yet it carried a pressure that left no room for refusal.

The four jade-like legs on the carriage had nowhere to go, twisting back and forth, urging, "Master, hurry up! Are you only satisfied when everyone has been seen naked?"

"Master, stop wasting your breath on him. I was in so much pain during my cultivation just now."

“Yes, Master, why don’t we draw the curtain and do our own thing, and talk to him through the curtain?”

A pair of delicate hands, one covering her chest, the other reaching out to lower the curtain.

The middle-aged Taoist priest grumbled, "You're being really rude," but he didn't actually stop them.

The carriage had lights on inside, but it was dark outside at night.

Two slender figures and one robust figure were projected from behind the curtain, the three figures intertwined.

The Taoist priest, panting, asked, "What's your backup plan? To sell...or not to sell?"

Lin Fan thought he had seen a lot of things in his two lifetimes, but this was something he had never seen before.

A woman's sobbing came from behind the curtain. Lin Fan also wanted to leave, but he was already surrounded by the Taoist's other disciples.

Lin Fan gripped the sickle tightly. If he was here to take over Linglong Temple, he was definitely not a simple character.

"Isn't the price too low, Taoist priest?" Lin Fan shouted, otherwise the voice behind the curtain would have been drowned out.

“Young man…this knife is indeed worth more than this price…but…you are only worth this price…”

Lin Fan was startled upon hearing this and almost drew his sword to break through the encirclement. As soon as Lin Fan moved, the male and female disciples around him also moved, drawing their wooden swords from their backs in unison, forming what seemed to be an impenetrable formation.

"What are you doing!" the middle-aged Taoist priest inside the carriage shouted angrily. "We are cultivators... put away your swords!"

Then, in a kind voice, she said to Lin Fan, "Young man... let me remind you... this knife will cause you to be possessed by inner demons... it's not something you can handle... I bought it to avoid misfortune... please don't be ungrateful..."

"Thank you for your kindness, Daoist Master, but I know what I'm doing."

"Then you may go..."

Lin Fan could hardly believe his ears, only to see the disciples surrounding him parting to make way for him.

Lin Fan gripped his sickle tightly and charged out of the sword formation, running a hundred meters away. Looking back, he saw that the carriage was indeed heading towards Baishi County.

The carriage moved slowly, swaying and rocking. The tiger-skinned Taoist priest called out, "Where is Xuanpin?"

A handsome and tall male disciple strode forward and walked to the car window. "Disciple is here."

The boat curtain was pulled back, but it wasn't the tiger-skinned Taoist priest who appeared; instead, it was the female disciple with a high nose bridge. Xuanpin trembled slightly when he saw her flushed face.

The official road was not very smooth, and the female disciple's body trembled slightly, her eyelids drooping slightly. She drew the curtains to try to cover her body.

The tiger-skin Taoist's voice came from behind, "Xuanpin... go and fetch the 'canine tooth'."

Xuanpin couldn't help but glance at his female disciple's face, but he didn't dare to look her in the eye directly. "Master, are you going to kill that person?"

"Fool... We are from the Xuanmen sect... not bandits... We act according to fate... Just follow him... When the time is right... take the canine tooth..."

Xuanpin gritted his teeth, glanced at the female disciple's pert nose, and was about to agree when the girl with the delicate nose spoke up, "Master... could you please not let Junior Brother go..."

"What... are you feeling sorry for him again? You gave your very soul and spirit to me for him... what else can you ask of me?... Huh?"

Before the female disciple could say anything more, Xuanpin interrupted, "Senior sister, there's no need to say more. It's just a small matter; leave it to me."

The female disciple gave a weak "hmm" and reached out to touch Xuanpin's cheek. "Junior brother... please take good care of yourself..."

Lin Fan walked in the darkness. His third uncle had once warned him not to walk at night, but at this moment, the night felt particularly reassuring. The mysterious darkness embraced him, giving him a warm and relaxed feeling.

It's probably because I'm no longer afraid of any wild animals that roam at night.

Lin Fan's steps gradually became unsteady. The effects of the strength pills were about to wear off. He had been relying on constantly taking strength pills to maintain his condition throughout the journey. Now, he looked like he was in his thirties, completely like a middle-aged man.

What to do next? Lin Fan's biggest problem right now is his body. He's injured too many times, even after fighting with Smiling Tiger. The gray pills can stop the bleeding, and the strength pills can quickly heal wounds, but the internal injuries haven't really healed at all.

He knew that he would die soon once the gray pill stopped taking effect. And this drug had side effects he was unaware of; at the very least, his canine teeth had grown considerably longer.

Even without side effects, this one bottle of medicine wouldn't be enough for me to take for a lifetime.

Forget it, I won't consider problems that can't be solved.

Lin Fan arrived at his next destination. In front of the grave of Tu Liangcai and his family of three, he took out two ears from his pocket.

One belongs to Duanmu Yu, and the other to the Smiling Tiger.

Lin Fan looked up at the full moon in the sky. It was desolate and lonely, and staring at it for too long made his eyes hurt.

"It's still barely Mid-Autumn Festival, I suppose. I wonder if you'll like these two gifts? I'm a selfish person; I didn't repay you with my own life, and I don't know if these two lives are enough. If you want anything else down there, please come to me in my dreams."
