Poor Taoist Qiu Chuji

Chapter 330 My wife is dead, so yours shouldn't live either.
"Well, thank you for your help!"

"By the way, there are two more patients who are a bit troublesome, so we might need to do a bit more handover." Dao Feng didn't rush to leave, but instead chose to try and get more information from Xu Xuan.

"A very troublesome patient?"

"Then stay a few more days, and I'll come over after you've taken care of things!" Xu Xuan was overjoyed to hear this.

Although Dao Feng didn't understand the inside story, she knew that she couldn't go along with Xu Xuan's words at this time, so she appropriately expressed her dissatisfaction: "I'm just being responsible to the patient, but it's absolutely impossible for me to give up...".

His words were vague, but Xu Xuan understood them. He showed disappointment but did not press the matter.

After all, the time allocation had been agreed upon, and he only said it verbally, without actually insisting on it.

Next, Dao Feng used vague language to extract information from Xu Xuan, and quickly got a general understanding of the situation.

Although Xu Xuan was puzzled as to why 'Xu Xian' was being so nagging today, always bringing up old matters, he didn't suspect anything further.

After all, it's already rare for two people in this world to look exactly alike and be each other's past and present lives. How could a third one suddenly appear out of nowhere?
However, he did not expect that if he had encountered such a rare thing, then encountering other things was not entirely impossible.

Although Xu Xuan has considerable strength, his vision is still a bit narrow and his associative abilities are not that strong.

However, while Dao Feng was trying to get information out of him, the frog in his arms kept croaking loudly.

Xu Xuan suggested that they stir-fry the frog and eat it first, but Dao Feng refused outright.

He was a monk and knew his master Fahai's bottom line.

Killing demons is acceptable, but killing people is not!
After handing over the affairs of Baoan Hall, Daofeng left with a happy expression.

After leaving Baoan Hall, instead of heading to Phoenix Mountain, they went to Yunlai Inn in the city and found their master, Fahai, there.

"Master! We've found out that the two snake demons are hiding in a Taoist temple on Phoenix Mountain. There's a Taoist named Changchun in the temple who's quite skilled, but he's definitely no match for you, Master." Dao Feng briefly relayed the information she had obtained from Xu Xuan to Fahai.

Fahai nodded slightly, summoned the 'frog' from Daofeng's arms, and broke one of the seals, allowing the frog to speak human language.

"Tell me everything you know about that Taoist Changchun, and I will turn you back into human form," Fahai said, looking at the frog.

Xu Xian initially wanted to refuse, but after a moment's thought, he said, "Monk, listen carefully, don't be scared. Changchun Zhenren is an immortal who has lived for 30,000 years. He knows all the laws and secrets of the world, past and future. He has already seen what you have done, but he is just temporarily ignoring it so that you can turn back in time."

“Monk… I advise you not to get involved, otherwise even if a Bodhisattva were to descend to earth, he could not save you.”

Upon hearing this, Fahai remained expressionless, while Daofeng revealed a disdainful look: "All talk and no action, Master... it seems that this so-called Changchun Daoist is just a charlatan, the same kind as the White Rat Spirit."

"How do you know about the White Rat Spirit? Are you an old acquaintance of that White Rat Spirit?" Xu Xian also tried to get information out of her.

He had always felt that the master and disciple Fahai and Daofeng were strange, but he didn't know exactly why.

Neither Fahai nor Daofeng answered Xu Xian's question. Fahai simply looked at Xu Xian, bowed his head and chanted a Buddhist prayer, then said, "Benefactor, you are deliberately trying to confuse us. Whether you want to scare us away or make us look down on that Changchun Daoist, it is all in vain."

"This humble monk will now make a trip to Phoenix Mountain and kill those two snake demons, so that they may not cause great trouble and harm the common people in the future."

Upon hearing this, Dao Feng immediately replied, "Then I wish you a great victory, Master. I will wait here for good news."

Fahai glanced at Daofeng and simply said, "Daofeng! Don't go astray."

He then turned and left.

After a short while, Daofeng walked to the window and opened it slightly to look out.

After confirming that Fahai had gone far away, he smiled slightly, stuffed the frog that Xu Xian had turned into into his mouth back into his arms, and then left the inn, rushing back to his residence by West Lake.

When they reached the pond in the backyard, under the willow tree, Daofeng untied the gag from Xu Xian's mouth and tied him to a tree branch, hanging him upside down.

"Who exactly are you? How do you know my house so well?" Xu Xian was held in her arms. He saw that this phoenix was in his house as if it were her own home. She knew exactly where the key was, the back door of the yard, and the alley. Xu Xian was filled with doubts.

Dao Feng completely tore off his disguise at this moment, revealing a face that was clearly the same as Xu Xuan's and Xu Xian's, but now it was twisted like a demon: "Who am I?"

"I am you! Xu Xian!" "Nonsense!"

"Do you think I'll believe you just because you say that?" Xu Xian said, indicating that he was a knowledgeable person and not so easily fooled.

“I look exactly like you and know everything about my family. Isn’t that enough to prove anything?”

"Alright... then I'll explain it more clearly."

As Dao Feng spoke, he revealed some private matters between him and his wife, Bai Suzhen. When he heard about things like getting medicine dispensed at the pharmacy on their wedding night and secretly exercising his waist strength, Xu Xian loudly denied it: "Nonsense! All nonsense! Who are you? What kind of monster are you, and why are you slandering me?"

Being a hero from humble beginnings isn't easy.

Pythons naturally have high muscle density, and Bai Suzhen was a snake demon who had cultivated for a thousand years. Even if she deliberately concealed her cultivation, she could still easily make men feel inferior if they weren't careful.

Xu Xian did indeed do a lot of work in private to maintain his dignity as a husband.

"Whether it's slander or not, you know it yourself."

"There are only the two of us here, who are you trying to fool with your excuses?" Dao Feng said sarcastically.

Xu Xian gradually fell silent, and the shouting subsided.

"Fine, even if you are me, why did you help that monk Fahai? And even become his disciple, thus harming Master Changchun and his wife?" Xu Xian questioned Dao Feng.

"She's a demon, a snake demon... I'm not harming her, I'm helping her, helping her get back on the right path, so she won't make the same mistake again!"

"How can this be considered harmful?"

"If anyone has been harmed, it's her! She's a snake demon who transformed into a human, deceived me, and scared me so badly that my soul was scattered and my spirit was in disarray. It's all her fault!" Dao Feng slammed his fist into the willow tree trunk, as if that would make his voice more convincing.

"Do you even believe what you're saying?" Xu Xian was absolutely unwilling to admit that the distorted-faced person in front of him was himself.

"Hehe... Hahaha! I believe you! Why wouldn't I believe you?"

"Xu Xian, I just want to live, to live peacefully, but she never asked me. She just interfered in my life like this. She brought this upon herself! She shouldn't blame me for her death!" Dao Feng's facial muscles were twitching, showing extreme excitement.

"Wait! She's dead?"

"who is she?"

"Is this...my wife?" Xu Xian asked.

"Of course! Of course she's yours... and my wife too!"

"I saw it with my own eyes. She was crushed into dust by Master Fahai using Leifeng Pagoda. Xiaoqing was also caught in the pagoda and is said to be never to be reincarnated. Living is more painful than dying."

"But I'm alive, I'm doing just fine, aren't I?" Dao Feng looked at Xu Xian with a strange expression, like a demon eyeing its prey.

Xu Xian shook his body violently, trying to break free from the tree branch; he had to escape.

Although he didn't know all the details, based on the fragments he heard from Dao Feng, he already had a very bad answer.

Snapped!
Xu Xian was grabbed by Dao Feng and held tightly in his palm.

"Xu Xian!"

My wife is dead!

"Right in front of me, I was beaten to a pulp, and I was finally freed from the 'nightmare'."

"So, my wife is dead, and yours... why are you still alive!"
