Dao of the Bizarre Immortal

Chapter 39 - Wild

Staring at the pieces of silver in Bai Lingmiao’s hands, Li Huowang immediately took out another piece of silver and gave it to her.

However, before he could even say anything, Bai Lingmiao hurriedly told him, “The anklet has already been melted. I saw it with my own two eyes. There is no way to buy it back.”

Seeing how shocked Li Huowang was, Bai Lingmiao chuckled as if she had finally won against him. She then placed all the silver in Li Huowang’s hands.

“It’s fine. The anklet was just something my mom gave me as an accessory. It was not some family heirloom.”

Seeing Bai Lingmiao insisting that it was alright, Li Huowang did not ask about it any more. He counted all the pieces of silver before keeping them safely. “Once everything has died down, I will buy you an even bigger one.”

“Ok! I’m looking forward to it!” Bai Lingmiao smiled and nodded.

Just then, the door opened, and Puppy entered the room. He saw that the two of them were in a corner of the room and immediately turned around. “Oops, sorry. Wrong room. I will head out now.”

Bai Lingmiao blushed before pushing Puppy away and running off.

On the other hand, Puppy just chuckled as he walked into the room once again. “Senior Li, even though Senior Bai is afflicted with albinism, that shouldn't be an issue when it comes to marrying her. Her heart and personality are much more important. Please don’t leave her behind.”

Li Huowang was too lazy to argue with him. “Stop babbling. Wash up and go to sleep. We finally have the chance to sleep in a bed.”

In his dream, Li Huowang was walking through a forest as he walked in the direction of a light. He used his sword to chop down the bushes and the trees in his way as he approached the light.

When he reached the source of the light, he realized that it was Bai Lingmiao, his mother, and Yang Na. All three of them were roasting sweet potatoes by a campfire.

Looking at the heartwarming scene, he sighed and approached them.

At that moment, however, the sky suddenly turned dark and Li Huowang saw a towering monstrosity—it was Dan Yangzi with his three heads and feathered body!

“Hahaha! My dear disciple! Not bad! You brought all of the guiding drug ingredients.”

The monstrosity that was Dan Yangzi laughed and picked up a stone pillar even larger than his body. Then, he smashed the pillar down toward the campfire.

“No wait!”

At that moment, Li Huowang woke up, completely drenched in cold sweat. He gasped for air and calmed down, realizing that it had all been a nightmare. Please visit fr𝐞𝐞w𝒏.𝒸𝑜𝔪 website to read fastest update

“Senior Li, you woke up? I bought some dumplings for you. Eat them while they are still hot.” Puppy, who had been looking at the streets while Li Huowang was sleeping, retracted his head from outside the window.

“May I ask which Monastery you are from?” Li Huowang was quite suspicious about him.

“I’m not from any Monastery. That’s why I’m traveling up north. I heard that there are many Monasteries there, and I want to become a Monk there. I heard that they even feed you for free!”

When he heard such a response, Li Huowang nodded and went back to his group. He had a hunch.

But just when Li Huowang had decided not to bother the fake Monk any further, the Monk approached Li Huowang instead.

“Are you looking for a Monastery as well? But aren’t you a Taoist? Taoists don’t really believe in Buddha, do they?”

Don’t tell me he’s trying to make me lower my guard?

Li Huowang instantly increased his alertness while smacking the rump of his donkeys; he had everyone walk faster and ignore the old Monk.

Unfortunately, Simpleton didn’t know what was wrong and just continued talking to the old Monk.

“You... You didn’t bring... bring any food? You... will...will starve!”

“Why would I? There are many mushrooms, fruits, and vegetables in the forest.”

“I’ve... I’ve eaten wild fruits before too! And...”

“Simpleton, don’t talk to him.” Li Huowang interrupted them.

“Oh.” Simpleton nodded in understanding.

Without anyone talking to him, the old Monk left. At the same time, Li Huowang sighed in relief and released his grip on the bronze bell hidden in his sleeves. He needed to be alert at all times in this weird world—regardless of whether the other person was truly an idiot or not.

After walking for two hours, it was finally mid-day. At this point, many people walked off the path and sat under the trees, munching on their ration. Li Huowang and his group did the same. Even though he was anxious to continue traveling, it was safer to travel in a large group.

He then passed out the freshly bought buns to everyone; they ate the buns with some pickled vegetables.

He had just drunk some water from the water gourd that Bai Lingmiao had passed on to him when he realized that someone was missing. “Huh? Where’s Simpleton?”

“He went into the forest to pee. However, why is he still not back? Did he go for number two instead? Simpleton! What are you doing there?”

When Puppy shouted into the forest, Simpleton’s large head popped out from behind a tree. He was munching on something.

“What are you eating?” Li Huowang asked, feeling confused.

“Some... Some free... free rice... in the forest! No... No money needed!” Simpleton just said that before once again hiding behind the tree.
