Mei Changkong sat down where Gan Yu had been and munched on cakes without grace. She didn't know how long she had been hungry.

"Sigh... You and I are good friends. I really can't bear to see you come to this point..."

Old Taoist Mingde looked at Mei Changkong with some regret.

Once upon a time, this Taoist brother was so suave and talented that countless women fell in love with him.

Now that his family has been destroyed, he is obviously about the same age as himself, but he is now haggard and old.

"I don't want to... Taoism is strict. My ancestor wanted to blaze a new path and worked hard. He died before he was thirty. My master followed... died in the mountains for a chance, and then passed it on to me.

"

Mei Changkong wiped off the cake residue on his beard and said in a low voice: "I have never been interested in fame, I just want to become an immortal... I finally managed to practice something, and the county inspection team took advantage of it. If I didn't follow the rules, I would put it on my head.

For the crime, the Taoist temple taught by my ancestors was turned into a temple for evil sacrifices and obscenities, and I became a wanted criminal... I was so angry that I killed the patrol inspector, and even became a repeat offender of the court. What do you think... Where is the justice in this world?"

Old Taoist Mingde opened his lips and did not speak for a long time.

Originally, he wanted to say that with Mei Changkong's intelligence, the county and state examinations were like searching for something, and even the high school Jinshi had some hope.

Even if you are not a Jinshi, as long as you have the reputation of "promoting talents", the inspection will not dare to act recklessly.

However, this man was determined to pursue the path of immortality and was arrogant. In the end, he was the pride of heaven and was knocked down into the mud.

It's just that Mei Changkong already knew this truth, and it would be useless for him to say more.

The more genius you are, the more arrogant you are!

What's more, Mei Changkong has lost too much on this road, and he can't deny it all. He only has Taoism left...

"You secretly sneaked into the county town. I'm afraid something big will happen. Do you want to take revenge? Isn't the patrol inspector dead?"

Old Taoist Mingde was a little confused.

Although the inspector is only from the ninth rank, he is also an official of the imperial court. Killing an official is the most sensitive nerve of rebellion and challenging the imperial court.

Mei Changkong didn't think about why he hid in the deep mountains and old forests and spent the rest of his life sneaking into the county town.

"Of course I want to take revenge... I have already found out clearly that what happened back then was only on the surface, while there were others hiding behind the scenes. Now they have been promoted step by step and have become the county magistrate!"

Mei Changkong sneered.

"You are crazy, Cao County Cheng is from the seventh rank!"

Old Taoist Mingde was shocked. In the Taoist court, rank represents power!
