Painted Skin: Girl Monster Hunter
244. Fake Taoist
The Taoist dusted off the dust on his body, looked at Ruyi and said, "You and I are really destined to meet each other three times in this vast sea of people."
"Three times? If I remember correctly, there should only be two times." Ruyi said.
The Taoist thought that he couldn't remember the last time Ruyi fell into a deep coma, so he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, don't bring up the old things again."
Princess Ningwu didn't know who the Taoist priest was, so when she saw him wearing a Taoist robe, she said bluntly: "Aren't you a Taoist priest? You're going to catch ghosts, get rid of all these monsters!"
The Taoist shook his head and said with a smile, "I'm just a scammer, how can I have such abilities."
Ruyi snorted and smiled: "How dare you tell the truth."
The Taoist said: "At this point, when people are dying, there is no need to carry so many lies. After lying for a lifetime, I also feel tired."
He rolled his eyes, looked at the crowd and said slowly: "Let's not say that I'm a fake Taoist priest who is bluffing and deceitful. I think even those alchemists with real talents and real learning are no match for the monsters here."
The dozens of men in the huge cage sighed again.
The Taoist felt that being caught by the monster this time was his retribution. He cheated countless money in his life and was greedy and lustful.These few years have been wandering in Jimo, and now there is a sudden illness in Jimo city, not only there is no prescription for treatment, but also contagious, many people got this disease and died.When people are desperate, they ask capable people to do things differently.
He didn't have any real skills, so he didn't dare to take on such a big job, so he packed up his things and ran away overnight.Walking to the suburbs at night, he suddenly saw a mansion, knocked on the door to stay overnight, was warmly received by the host, beauties, wine and food greeted him warmly, so he followed suit.
In fact, this Taoist priest is not considered bad, it is nothing more than opportunistic. Although he has never done business in his life, he has never really wanted to harm anyone.
If he had to find someone who made him feel guilty, it would be wishful thinking.He always felt that Ruyi's mother's death had something to do with him, and he took her out of the village, but left the girl and slipped away...
He secretly observed Ruyi's face, thinking, if he had really brought her up as her master, maybe everything would be different.
But in this world, there has never been a saying of regretting medicine, once you miss it, you will miss it forever.
The Taoist knew clearly in his heart that he was indeed not qualified to be a wishful master.
"Is there any order for these monsters to catch people? Is it in chronological order, or something else?" Ruyi asked.
The eldest brother who stayed in the cage for the longest time said: "I thought it was in chronological order, but later I found out that it didn't seem to be the case. The female goblin came to pick people, it seems to be randomly picked, there are a few Those who came later than me have already been arrested."
Ruyi Ningwu exchanged glances with the young master, if they were chosen randomly, it meant that they also had a certain chance of being captured.
"Arrest one person out every five days, so when will the next arrest be?" the young master asked.
The elder brother said with trembling shoulders, "Tomorrow night..."
The three of them stood together, so they didn't have much time left.
This hanging cage is welded with huge iron bars, each iron bar is as thick as Ruyi's arm, unless you have a magic weapon that cuts iron like mud in your hands, don't even think about breaking it.
Their weapons and belongings were taken away, and nothing was left of them except the clothes they were wearing.
