Chapter 31 The Old Taoist
The old ghost was once a Taoist.
One associated with a Taoist Temple.
However, the Taoist has died, and the temple has collapsed. The statue of The Three Pure Ones had a gaping hole, turning it into a den for snakes and rats.
Yet, the old Taoist still hasn’t left, guarding his ruined temple in this desolate land.
The old Taoist considers himself to have cultivated into a Ghost Immortal, achieving great freedom.
But Yu Youcai harbors disdain for such a claim.
He’s just an ordinary old ghost. If he counts as a Ghost Immortal, then there would be tens of thousands of Ghost Immortals in the world.
However, this is only what Yu Youcai thinks inwardly; he actually holds great respect for the old Taoist.
On one hand, although the old Taoist babbles on, he indeed possesses extensive knowledge.
On the other, the old Taoist is an elder to Yu Youcai. Back when Yu Youcai was very young, his grandfather had taken him to visit the old Taoist. The two were close and good friends, and the old Taoist was very fond of him.
The old Taoist also had abilities. Having experienced countless rises and falls in life, he remained long-lived, having survived a long time. Only when Shen Jianjun was born did he pass away—he was then one hundred and thirty-five years old.
