This Taoist Master is too Frivolous

Chapter 346: Chapter 238: I’ll Eat You All!

Liu Shishi’s beautiful eyes flickered, asking, “Husband, is it Dr. Wan Qian?”

Xu Yang nodded.

There was only one psychological clinic in Wu City.

Apart from Wan Qian, who else could it be?

In Xu Yang’s mind, the image of the short-haired, strong-willed woman who exuded a mature beauty as a psychologist appeared…

Xu Yang still remembered when she told him to believe in science.

As a result, she herself had a dream sent by her grandfather.

“Wan?”

Feng Zhaoqing said, “I am not very clear about the specific information of the victim. Bai Wei is responsible for this area. Shall I give her a call to inquire?”

Xu Yang said, “No need to bother. I’ll go with you to the station and take a look at this mentally ill person.”

Feng Zhaoqing was happy to hear Xu Yang’s words, as he originally came to ask for Xu Yang’s help. He said, “There’s no time to lose… Supreme Sage Xu, let’s go.”

The two of them left the funeral shop.

They happened to run into Ma Xiaotiao and Wu Yueya who had returned from shopping.

The young couple seemed a bit awkward when they left earlier, but now they appeared much more familiar with each other.

Wu Yueya walked in front with a cotton candy, while Ma Xiaotiao followed behind with big and small bags, all with a happy face, asking questions here and there. Upon seeing Xu Yang, he immediately jogged over and asked, “Master, are you going out?”

“Hmm,” Xu Yang replied. “Something came up, so I’m going out for a bit.”

Ma Xiaotiao looked at Liu Shishi and called out, “Shishi Master, are you also here?”

Liu Shishi nodded, looked at Wu Yueya and said, “You must be Yueya, right? Xiaotiao, you and Yueya are now colleagues and living under the same roof. You must take good care of Yueya, and never bully her.”

Ma Xiaotiao murmured, “It would be nice if Sister Yueya didn’t bully me instead…”

Wu Yueya quickly rolled her eyes at Ma Xiaotiao and exchanged greetings with Liu Shishi, calling her “Boss Lady”.

Liu Shishi was puzzled, “Why do you call me Boss Lady?”

Wu Yueya said, “I now work for Master Xu, and he is my boss, so naturally, I have to call you Boss Lady.”

The reason sounded quite logical.

However, Liu Shishi found the title “Boss Lady” a bit odd. She laughed, “You don’t have to be so distant. Just call me Master like Xiaotiao does.”

Wu Yueya immediately changed her address and said, “Master, Xiaotiao and I just bought some meat and vegetables at the mall and plan to cook dinner ourselves. Why don’t you stay and eat with us?”

Xu Yang had to go out.

Going back by herself would mean being with one person…no, one ghost.

Liu Shishi agreed and went back to the store.

She went upstairs.

Liu Shishi turned on the TV and started watching a TV series while Ma Xiaotiao placed the purchased items and went into the kitchen to help Wu Yueya. He whispered, “Sister Yueya, next time you call Master, you have to call her Shishi Master.”

While putting on her apron, Wu Yueya asked, “Why?”

Ma Xiaotiao glanced outside and whispered even more softly in Wu Yueya’s ear, “Because I have many Masters – in addition to Shishi Master, there are Mengxi Master, Qiluo Master, Yuluo Master and Yinyin Master.”

Wu Yueya: “…”

“Wow, has Master Xu married so many wives?”

Wu Yueya was surprised, “Isn’t he a Daoist? Can Daoists marry this many wives?”

With a serious expression, Ma Xiaotiao said, “We Jingming Sect members are allowed to get married; it’s just that my master has married a bit too many…”

The hushed conversation between the two was, of course, not hidden from Liu Shishi.

She secretly chuckled to herself without interrupting the children.

———-

At this moment.

Xu Yang and Feng Zhaoqing had arrived at Wu City’s police station.

As they entered the gate, Xu Yang glanced at the plaque hanging outside which read “Spirits Management Bureau, Wu City Branch,” and wondered, “Captain Feng…has our Wu City police station become a branch now?”

Feng Zhaoqing laughed, “I haven’t had a chance to tell Supreme Sage Xu about this recent event.”

“Then I should call you Director Feng now.”

The two of them walked to the office building.

Many people they met along the way knew Xu Yang and stopped their work to greet him.

Apparently.

After the “Wu City’s police station” was promoted to a “branch”, the staff had been expanded.

The new members were either transferred from various places in Silver City or recruited from the civilian population.

As Feng Zhaoqing led the way, he introduced the current situation to Xu Yang and said, “The recruitment from the private sector this time was quite a shock to us… As the saying goes online, our Da Xia is indeed a hidden dragon and crouching tiger among the civilian population!”

“Oh?”

Xu Yang asked curiously, “Did you recruit any experts from the private sector this time?”

Feng Zhaoqing replied, “We didn’t recruit any experts, but we did discover quite a few.”

He continued, “Take our Wu City for example, there’s an Imam from the Hui ethnic group in the countryside of Tongxin County. He’s 78 years old this year and usually keeps a low profile… But boy, he’s actually a peak martial grandmaster! His Hui-style knife skills are fierce and powerful!”

“The key is that this man came from an unconventional background. He said that when he was young and reading scriptures in the mosque, the Imams would teach them martial arts to strengthen their bodies, and he followed the practice ever since… As a result, after the spiritual aura returned, he cultivated inner Qi, and then by blindly groping over the years, he reached the realm of peak martial grandmaster!”

Feng Zhaoqing greatly admired the “old Imam” as he spoke.

Feng Zhaoqing continued, “We also found a peak Daoist cultivator in the Entering Dao realm at the Bull Head Mountain Dao Palace!”

“……”

Xu Yang was dumbfounded.

He knew about Bull Head Mountain, which was not far from Wu City, just about thirty kilometers away. He and Ma Long had visited it together a few years ago.

There were ancient temple complexes on Bull Head Mountain, built during the Tang Dynasty, divided into “West Temple” and “East Temple” sections. The main peak, “Wen Hua Peak,” got its name because it resembled the head of a bull. The temple complexes were scattered among the mountain cliffs and valleys.

There were 19 temples in the East Temple Complex, including the Golden Pagoda, Bao’an Temple, She Sheng Cliff, and Sleeping Buddha Cave.

The West Temple Complex faced the river and backed onto the mountain. With a total of 26 temples, including the Wan Fo Pavilion, Pure Land Temple, and Guanyin Hall, it was known as the “Little Potala Palace” and was the largest temple complex in Xi Xia Province.

“Wait a second…”

“Director Feng, is there a mistake somewhere?”

Xu Yang said, “Bull Head Mountain is a complex of Buddhist temples, the territory of Buddhism… Even if there were powerful practitioners, they should be Buddhist experts, right? How could they be Daoist practitioners?”

Feng Zhaoqing explained, “In fact, the temples on Bull Head Mountain were abandoned and in decline many years ago, and were later rebuilt with government funding. The monks inside were only recruited and appointed in recent years, and they have no authentic lineage whatsoever.”

“The Daoist practitioner I spoke of is actually a monk himself.”

“He suffered emotional trauma 15 years ago and went to Bull Head Mountain to become a monk. These years he has been sweeping the temple floors… Somehow, he got his hands on an ancient Daoist manual, and he’s cultivated himself to the peak of the Entering Dao realm.”

Xu Yang: “……”

Could this happen?

A proper monk cultivating Daoist lineage, and not only that, but also reaching the peak of the Entering Dao realm – if this got out, who knew what the Buddhist disciples would think?

The two of them entered the building, took a right turn along the corridor on the first floor, and walked to the end of the corridor.

There was an elevator here that led underground.

The underground area was brightly lit, somewhat like an “underground research base” in sci-fi movies, but instead of scientific equipment, there were various cultivation tools for physical fitness.

There were martial arts arenas, all kinds of swords, spears, axes, clubs.

There were even shooting ranges and various firearms.

“This is the first underground level, where the brothers practice and compete.”

Feng Zhaoqing gave Xu Yang a brief introduction, saying, “There’s also a second level, where we detain Yin spirits, malevolent beings, and criminals from the martial world.”

The second underground level was much darker.

It was also divided into a series of cells.

Unlike prison cells in film and television, these cells were made entirely of metal alloys. The ordinary cells used steel plates several centimeters thick, and a few special cells used extremely hard special alloys. According to Feng Zhaoqing, even if a martial grandmaster were locked inside, they might not be able to escape.

“Ow ow ow…”

As soon as they entered the second underground level, Xu Yang faintly heard the sounds of “wolf howling.”

The two of them followed the howling to a cell, where they heard intermittent wolf howls and cursing…

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The mentally ill man locked inside was frantically smashing against the iron door. The steel plate, several centimeters thick, was visibly bulging from the impact.

“Such incredible power!”

Xu Yang exclaimed, “This kind of power is not something an ordinary person could possess… Director Feng, who is this guy?”

Feng Zhaoqing presented a dossier.

Xu Yang took a look and learned that the “psychiatric patient” was named Ji Mingrui, 23 years old, and unmarried.

He was from Banqiao Village, Litong District, Wu City. After dropping out of high school, he wandered around, worked on construction sites, served in KTV, and even trained as a barbecue chef at a grill bar.

“His family consisted of four people: his parents and a younger brother in high school.”

“At the time of the incident, his mother and brother were accompanying him to see the psychologist, and that’s when the tragedy occurred…”

“According to our investigations, Ji Mingrui is just an ordinary person who never had any contact with people in the martial world. His condition doesn’t seem like he’s been cursed or bewitched…”

Xu Yang looked at the file.

Suddenly, he noticed a problem and said, “Was Ji Mingrui bitten by a dog when he was young?”

“Well…”

Feng Zhaoqing laughed, “It’s not like becoming rabid from a dog bite could turn him into this, right? Besides, he keeps fantasizing that he’s a wolf, not a dog.”

At this moment, Bai Wei arrived on the second underground level with additional information.

She handed the file on the deceased psychologist to Xu Yang. After reading it, he breathed a sigh of relief. The deceased was a male doctor who had started working at Wan Qian’s clinic only half a month ago.

Bai Wei said, “Dr. Wan was also at the clinic at the time. She was bitten too, but on the arm, so her life is not in danger.”

Xu Yang didn’t say anything.

Instead, he listened to the “howling” coming from the cell and said, “Director Feng, open the door… I won’t be able to give you an answer until I see it for myself.”

Unexpectedly, after they opened the cell door, the young man didn’t show any signs of losing his sanity or going crazy as they imagined.

He squatted in the corner in a “dog-sitting” position, eyes red and staring intently at Xu Yang, Feng Zhaoqing, and Bai Wei. In a deep, hoarse voice, he growled, “Let me out!”

“You, let me out!”

“I’m a werewolf… If you don’t let me out, I’ll eat all of you!”
