Chapter 2563
Thinking of how much she had admired the old temple keeper before, she wished she could treat him like an old god.
At this moment, Bai Lu felt as if there was a knot in her heart.
She always felt that her eyes were covered with lard.
Zhou Ping asked Tao Yan: "Is the boy statue related to your original body?"
Tao Yan looked at the main hall of Yue Lao Temple in the night and nodded: "Yes... related..."
Bai Lu couldn't help asking: "Then... that old temple keeper..."
Just after asking, she suddenly heard a creaking sound.
Bai Lu shivered in fear and quickly hid behind Gu Zhige.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, only to see the old temple keeper trembling out of the side room next to him.
He was still wearing the shabby Taoist robe. In the night, he walked a little anxiously, and he didn't keep his eyes on his feet, and he fell down the steps.
Everyone gasped in fear. Xu Mu and Gu Zhige ran over and helped him up: "Are you okay?"
For such an old man, even though he only fell from two steps, it was still very serious. After all, at this age, he was really... very old.
The old temple keeper must have been hit hard, but he seemed to have no feeling at all, and his old eyes were staring at Tao Yan's direction.
At this moment, he was completely different from the poker-faced, quiet, unfathomable, but greedy old temple keeper that Zhou Ping and the others had seen before.
He limped over and trembled and shouted: "Seventh Young Master..."
Everyone opened their eyes wide in surprise.
Seventh Young Master?
What...what's going on?
Tao Yan looked at the old temple keeper and smiled bitterly: "You are so old now?"
Two tears flowed from the old temple keeper's old and dry eyes: "Are you okay?"
Tao Yan looked at his almost fading figure and said: "It seems, not very good."
"Master... I'm sorry... I didn't..."
Tao Yan waved his hand to stop him from continuing: "It has nothing to do with you."
The brief conversation between the two made everyone understand that Tao Yan and the old temple keeper had known each other in their early years.
The old temple keeper might be Tao Yan's servant.
Zhou Ping asked the old temple keeper: "Where is Tao Yan...his original body...? What does it have to do with the boy statue..."
The old temple keeper's face immediately became defensive, and he looked at Zhou Ping with a bit of ferocity: "What do you want to do?"
Zhou Ping said: "Save her..."
The old temple keeper immediately said: "No, if the boy statue is destroyed, Master..."
Tao Yan interrupted him again, and told Zhou Ping: "My original body is in the boy statue, let's go."
The old temple keeper's hunched figure stopped them: "Master, no..."
Tao Yan looked at the hall and said: "I'm already like this, what else can't I do? Whether I move or not, I will die. If so, why can't I do it according to my wishes? When I was alive, I couldn't control my own destiny. Now... I'm going to die, can't I do it?"
Since they are all going to die, Tao Yan wants to do it according to his wishes.
His original body, he doesn't want to be imprisoned in this small world anymore.
The old temple master said: "Seventh Young Master... It's really not possible, this is the lifeblood of the Tao family..."
Tao Yan sneered: "Haha, Tao family? The Tao family should have been wiped out long ago."
Zhou Ping's heart trembled.
