When I was a Taoist

Chapter 197 More Resolute

After I passed the audit, I didn't leave the Daohui in a hurry. Instead, I found an inconspicuous corner at the door of the warehouse and waited quietly for all the audits to end.The tiger demon was very puzzled, and asked: "You have already passed the examination, why are you waiting here? Do you want to go through the back door and directly pass the test in three days?"

"If I really use this method to pass the test, not to mention whether the master and Mochizuki will look down on me, even I will look down on myself."

I shook my head and said: "Before leaving, the second elder tapped on the back of my hand. I think he has something to say to me alone. And I think the third elder seems to be at odds with the master. There might be trouble."

Hearing this, the tiger demon snorted, and said disdainfully: "What kind of waves can a bad old man make? If he dares to make things difficult for you, I'll pounce on them and show them off."

"In any case, they are all the elders of the Daoist Society, and even Senior Mochizuki has to give them some face. Even if he doesn't like him again, I can only shrink back first." I shook my head dumbfoundingly, and said.

After waiting for about half an hour, everyone left the warehouse.I hid in the corner and watched the three elders leave the warehouse and walk towards the interior of the Daoist Association.Among these people, only the Second Elder was absent.

"Tiger demon, let's go in."

I waved at the tiger demon and quickly slipped into the warehouse.As soon as I entered the door, a black shadow swooped towards me from the air.I was slightly taken aback, but I no longer panicked and lost my sense of proportion as before.I avoided the black shadow's attack by stepping on gang steps, and then I took out a ghost exorcism talisman, and punched out the talisman with my hands.

A scream rang out, and the black shadow was shaken back by the light emanating from the exorcism talisman, and in a blink of an eye it merged into the darkness again and disappeared.I looked towards the center of the warehouse, and the second elder was looking at me with a smile, nodded and said: "Yes, Gao Liang seems to have chosen the wrong person. If it were those boys, I'm afraid they would have been scared to death by this 30-year-old ghost gone."

Li Gui used to be an unattainable opponent for me, but now I can easily seal Li Gui who has practiced for decades.

I cupped my hands at the second elder, who said, "I'm still thinking that if you don't come today, I don't need to pay attention to you anymore."

Grinning, I said, "Before I left, Second Elder, you tapped on the back of my hand. Even if I don't understand what it means, I will stay and ask you after the review is over."

The second elder nodded, his face became serious immediately, and said: "I'm afraid you also saw it during the review. The third elder is very dissatisfied with you."

I responded, but said nonchalantly: "I walk upright and sit upright, and I haven't done anything unconscionable, so I won't be afraid that the third elder will make things difficult for me."

"You silly boy, it seems that you really don't know how deep the water is."

The second elder glared at me, and said slowly: "Do you know why the third elder and Gao Liang are in such a relationship?"

How can I, a junior, know about the grievances of the previous generation?Seeing me honestly shaking my head, the Second Elder laughed at himself and said, "That's right, it's impossible for you to know about this, so let me tell you."

It turned out that when Gao Liang joined the Dragon City Taoist Association when he was young, the third elder admired his ability very much and paid special attention to him.But with Gao Liang's upright temper, he often clashed with the third elder, and the relationship between them became worse and worse.In the end, in a commission, the third elder gave up the life of his employer in order to protect his own interests.Back at the Taoist Association, Gao Liang made a fuss directly in front of the president at the time, and the third elder was almost demoted because of this.

Although the matter calmed down in the end, the relationship between Gao Liang and the third elder also deteriorated completely, and they became incompatible enemies.Seeing that these two guys were able to tear down the Daohui, the president hurriedly applied to transfer Gao Liang to the Daohui headquarters, which made the Longcheng Daohui peaceful.

After hearing the second elder's narration, I couldn't help laughing, but I wasn't surprised at all.Based on my understanding of Gao Liang, when encountering such a thing, he would definitely fight to the death with the third elder.It would surprise me if it didn't happen like this.

After the second elder finished speaking, he suddenly looked straight at me and asked, "Little guy, if it were you, what would you choose?"

I was taken aback, hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to answer honestly: "Senior, although I can't accept this kind of behavior, I may not be as straightforward as the master."

"That's right, you're quite honest, kid."

The second elder nodded, and said meaningfully: "I tell you this today, just to let you know what to do after entering the Daoist Association. Gao Liang had a teacher to support him back then, and now you can only rely on yourself. A test for you. Only when you stand firm can you begin to achieve your goals!"

The second elder patted me on the shoulder, turned and left the warehouse.

When walking to the gate of the warehouse, the second elder stopped suddenly and added: "In the Daoist Association, the three elders are equally important as the president. Don't think that you can sit back and relax if the president knows you. The first elder and the third elder are All dogs of the same feather are hostile to you. If you don’t want to be passive, just quickly find yourself a sufficient backer.”

After speaking, the figure of the second elder disappeared.

At that time, I didn't quite understand the meaning of the second elder's words. Two of the three elders were hostile to me, and the second elder was neutral.In this way, who else can I ask to be my backer?

On the way back, I kept thinking about everything that happened today.Seeing my silence, the tiger demon asked, "Boy, are you thinking about what the old man said?"

I sighed, nodded and said, "I joined the Daoist Society just to prove myself and improve my strength better. But what the second elder said made me feel that the Daoist Society is as dangerous as a dragon's pond and a tiger's den."

The tiger demon curled his lips and said, "You kid lives under Gao Liang's protection, so you don't know the dangers outside. Don't think that Taoism is the holy place in the hearts of all Taoists, but the darkness inside is far beyond your imagination. You are too indecisive, and you have no sense of proportion when you encounter big things, if you continue like this, you will be waiting to be eaten by those bastards in the Daoist Association."

After a pause, the tiger demon said again: "I probably also know something about you. If you want to take revenge, you must be more decisive and resolute than your enemy!"

After hearing what the tiger demon said, I slowly clenched my fists.The timidity in my heart disappeared when I thought that I would have to face the mastermind who framed my parents in the future.

Master, don't worry, I will never embarrass you.If the third elders want to embarrass me, then just let them come!
