Under One Person: The Taoist Priest Descends the Mountain

Cheng Mo observed with curiosity.

This guy looks a lot like the sorcerer we met the night we captured Zhong Kui; they must be the same person.

However, this Qi is very strange. The Qi flows around the barrier, but the inside is hollow, as if it is just an illusion.

Xu Si turned around and said sincerely, "Master Cheng, please help me one more time."

Cheng Mo nodded and walked over.

Old Wei looked at him with great interest: "You really are a variable. I originally planned to have Zhang San'er cause a scene here, kill a few people, make a big fuss, and then give it to the company as a gift."

He shook his head regretfully: "I didn't expect you to snatch it away first."

Seeing Cheng Mo stop at the barrier entrance without making a move, Xu Si asked Lao Wei in a deep voice, "What exactly do you want to do?"

Old Wei thought about it seriously: "Let me think... I guess I want to see just how much influence the world of supernatural beings has in this era."

He paced back and forth in front of the tree with his hands behind his back: "That Zhuge Liang left something for the Zhuge family. As for me, I have no descendants and no sect. I just wanted to leave something behind as a memento."

He stopped and looked at Cheng Mo: "You broke my formation and captured my people. Logically, I should be angry, but I like you, so I won't hold it against you."

Cheng Mo chuckled and stepped inside.

With one step, he crossed that barrier.

Old Wei: "Young—"

Cheng Mo slapped him across the face.

Snapped!

The sound was crisp and clear; Old Wei's voice came to an abrupt halt.

The formation dissipated, and Xu Si and the others rushed in.

The person is gone.

Xu Si looked around, bewildered and uncertain: "Where is he?"

Cheng Mo waved his hand: "He wasn't here in the first place; he just left a formation behind."

Xia He looked around and walked over to Cheng Mo, asking, "There has to be an activation mechanism for the formation, right?"

Cheng Mo shrugged: "Then I don't know. You know, I only have a smattering of knowledge about warlock stuff."

Others: "..."

Everyone was thinking: If you only have a smattering of knowledge, then there are hardly any master sorcerers left in the world of supernatural beings.

Xia He patted Cheng Mo on the shoulder: "Little Taoist, sometimes we need to be more confident."

Before Cheng Mo could speak, Old Wei reappeared by another large tree near the entrance of the restaurant.

Half of his face was red, and five finger marks were clearly visible.

He touched his face and clicked his tongue twice: "Young people are so impatient. You have to let me finish what I have to say. I only have a few words left."

Cheng Mo extended his hand: "Please speak."

Old Wei's gaze passed over the crowd and looked out of the town.

A taxi was parked on the side of the road, and a young man got out of it. He was carrying a bag and squinting, so his pupils were not visible.

Old Wei laughed: "Oh, isn't this the little fellow from the Zhuge family? What are you doing here?"

Zhuge Qing strode over, trying to get through the crowd, but no one made way for him.

He frowned, changed his footing, and moved swiftly, squeezing through the crowd to the front in a few moments.

He stood before the barrier and asked in a deep voice, "Who exactly are you?"

Old Wei still had that same smiling face: "Didn't I tell you? Old Wei, you know, is a character from a storybook, hehe."

His body began to fade, like ink dripping into water, spreading little by little, starting from his feet and spreading upwards. His gray trouser legs became transparent, and only the outline of his cloth shoes remained.

Zhuge Qing stepped forward: "Where exactly is that person?"

Old Wei's body was now only his upper body remaining, and his voice floated down from mid-air: "Right beside you."

As soon as he finished speaking, his body completely disappeared.

Xu Si looked at Cheng Mo: "Gone?"

Cheng Mo shrugged: "I don't know. I'm just a dabbler. You should ask that squinty-eyed guy."

Xu Si remembered; these were people from the Zhuge family.

He looked Zhuge Qing up and down. How did this person find his way here?

Zhuge Qing looked at the group, glanced around, and finally locked his gaze on Xu Si. He strode forward and asked, "Was that fake Zhuge Liang your doing? Where is he now?"

Xu Si took out a cigarette from his pocket, put one in his mouth, and lit it slowly: "First of all, we didn't do anything like a fake Zhuge Liang. Secondly, your elders want you to go home and not wander around outside all the time."

Zhuge Qing frowned, looked around, took a deep breath, and cupped his hands in greeting: "I apologize for the intrusion. I have some information about that person here; we can exchange some information."

Xu Si took a drag of his cigarette and exhaled a puff of white smoke.

He didn't feel there was any information to exchange.

Liu Wenzhou is locked up, Zhuge Liang has disappeared, so no information matters anymore.

Zhuge Qing guessed what he was thinking and said calmly, "He did not disappear."

Xu Si was taken aback for a moment: "Huh?"

He thought for a moment, then took the cigarette out of his mouth: "Let's go back to the company first."

Zhuge Qing nodded and followed Xu Si.

Xia Liuqing leaned closer to Cheng Mo and whispered, "Who's that squinty-eyed guy?"

Cheng Mo also answered softly, "A genius from the Zhuge family."

Xia Liuqing: "When he said 'it hasn't disappeared,' could he mean Zhuge Liang hasn't disappeared?"

Cheng Mo shrugged: "Maybe."

Xia Liuqing snorted: "They don't believe in my abilities, do they? Come on, let's go take a look."

Cheng Mo turned to Tu Junfang and asked, "Old Tu, aren't you getting out of here?"

Tu Junfang shook his head: "Brother Cheng, you can go ahead. I need to continue my cultivation."

Cheng Mo waved his hand: "Then we'll meet again."

Xia He waved back, "Goodbye, weird uncle."

Cheng Mo waved his hand: "Then we'll meet again."

Xia He waved back, "Goodbye, weird uncle."

Tu Junfang waved goodbye, turned and walked out of town, his figure quickly disappearing into the shadows of the trees by the roadside.

Xia Liuqing watched his retreating figure and clicked her tongue twice.

Cheng Mo glanced at him sideways: "Is the old man upset that Lao Tu didn't say goodbye to you?"

Xia Liuqing snorted: "People of the Quanxing Sect don't have so many rules."

Cheng Mo smiled.

But in a corner unknown to most people.

Qian Wanli opened his eyes with difficulty and saw only blue sky and white clouds, with empty space all around him.

He lay on a grassy field, the grass about half a foot tall, and the wind blew, the blades of grass brushing against his face.

"Where the hell am I?"

He got up from the ground, walked around, and found that all he could see was barren land with not a soul in sight.

"Wei Zhongxian, where the hell have you brought me?!"

no respond.

Qian Wanli cursed for a while, then closed his eyes to regulate his breathing, and then he discovered—

There is no Qi left.

"Fuck! So fucking! Damn it!!"

……

On the road from Liulin Town to Heng'an County.

Cheng Mo, sitting in the passenger seat, turned to look at Xia Liuqing in the back seat: "Grandpa, why did you get into a fight with that guy?"

Xia Liuqing scratched his head and thought for a moment: "Looking back now, it really is a bit inexplicable."

"Oh?" Cheng Mo became interested. "Tell me more about it."

Xia Liuqing frowned as she recalled, "Seeing that guy reminded me of Liang Ting, so I wanted to tease him, and the more I teased him, the more excited I got..."

He suddenly slapped his thigh: "Come to think of it, it's somewhat similar to Gao Ning's Twelve Labors Formation. Is that fat guy here?"

Xia He didn't even turn her head: "That fat guy is dead."

Xia Liuqing's eyes widened: "Huh? How did he die? How come I didn't know?"

Xia He said calmly, "They harassed my parents before, and then they disappeared and haven't shown up since, so they must be dead."

Xia Liuqing looked at the two of them suspiciously.

Cheng Mo met his gaze, his face expressionless.

Xia Liuqing coughed twice and looked away: "Well, he's dead, so be it. Anyway, that guy deserved to die."

He changed the subject back: "If it's not Fatty Gao, then who could it be?"

Cheng Mo said, "Isn't it just that old Wei? He's the one who set up the formations. Disturbing someone's mind is a piece of cake."

Xia Liuqing retorted, "But I didn't feel anything at all."

Cheng Mo said calmly, "If you can sense it, then what kind of expert is he?"

Xia Liuqing nodded, then thought for a moment and her face darkened: "Hey, wait a minute, you're insulting me."

Cheng Mo looked completely innocent: "Where did I curse? Please don't make things up."

The car was parked downstairs at Nadutong.

After everyone got out of the car, Xu Si, along with Zhuge Qing, invited Cheng Mo and the others to come to the conference room.
