Chapter 20 Curse
Old Jack felt aggrieved, but he still swallowed his anger and took out the relevant certificates issued by the Spirit Hall to Tang San.
The gatekeeper laughed after looking at it. "Blue Silver Grass, such a useless martial soul, has innate full soul power?"
Haha, what good will it do you guys to make me laugh to death?
What a joke! I've worked at the academy for so many years and I've never heard of anyone with innate full soul power, let alone a useless martial soul like Blue Silver Grass.
I suspect this certificate was forged by you.
"You...you're clearly making things difficult for us country folk."
"You, you wait here, I'm going to find the deacon of the Spirit Hall." Old Jack usually had a good temper, but at this moment he was quite angry and couldn't hold back any longer.
No one dares to forge the Spirit Hall's credentials, a fact the gatekeeper is well aware of. However, most people who come to see off new students will offer some token of appreciation.
The saying "It's easier to deal with the King of Hell than with his underlings" perfectly illustrates this point.
In his opinion, old Jack was completely clueless about social etiquette!
Seeing that the old man and the young man were really going to the Spirit Hall, the gatekeeper felt slightly uneasy. However, he also thought that the Spirit Hall would certainly not go to great lengths for two country bumpkins.
Feeling frustrated, he casually muttered, "What kind of Holy Soul Village is this? In my opinion, it should be called Beggar Village."
"What did you say?"
Old Jack turned sharply and glared at the gatekeeper. The legend of Holy Soul Village was his greatest pride, and the gatekeeper's words were unbearable for him.
The doorman was startled by the sudden aura and subconsciously took a step back. However, he quickly recovered and cursed inwardly, "He's just an old guy, what's so scary about him?"
"What? You disagree? Did I say something wrong?"
"Look at you, and look at this poor little wretch! Your clothes are covered in patches. What else could you be but a beggar? We don't take beggars here. Get lost!"
As he spoke, the doorman raised his hand to Old Jack, intending to drive the two away.
At this moment, Tang San could no longer hold back. With quick eyes and hands, he grabbed the gatekeeper's hand and pulled it to the left, cleverly dissipating the gatekeeper's strength. At the same time, he quickly stepped forward with his right foot, placing his foot right behind the gatekeeper's left foot. Then, he pushed the gatekeeper's lower abdomen with both hands.
Tang San was quite strong. The gatekeeper instinctively stepped back, but Tang San hooked one of his feet around the gatekeeper's heel. As a result, the gatekeeper lost his balance and fell backward with a thud.
"Kid, you're asking for it."
How humiliating it was to be pushed down by a little beggar! In a fit of rage, the doorman got up from the ground and was about to rush towards the little beggar.
Tang San's eyes flashed with a cold light, his arm trembled slightly, and his hidden sword was ready to be used.
[The third rule of the Tang Sect's Mysterious Heavenly Treasure Record states: Once you've determined your opponent is an enemy, and they have a willingness to die, show no mercy; otherwise, you'll only create unnecessary trouble for yourself.]
In Tang San's view, the doorman's act of attacking an old man like Jack, coupled with his meanness, was tantamount to courting death.
Tang San raised his arm, intending to finish off the foul-mouthed doorman.
"Alright, stop now."
Just then, a somewhat hoarse voice rang out, stopping the gatekeeper and indirectly saving his life.
The doorman was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly did a complete 180-degree turn, bowing and scraping to the newcomer with a fawning expression, saying, "Master, you're back."
Not far away, Lin Ye's spirits lifted. Here he comes! Yu Xiaogang is showing off with his hands behind his back.
The man who came was an old man in his forties or fifties. He had a buzz cut, an ordinary appearance, a stubble on his face, and his hands were behind his back, yet he still gave off an air of superiority.
However, his laziness and decadence ruined this image, making it feel very incongruous and out of place.
As a result, this old man forced himself to put on airs, giving the impression that he was pretentious and particularly good at faking it.
Is this Yu Xiaogang? He looks so ordinary. How could those two women have fallen for someone like him?
Lin Ye looked at Yu Xiaogang, expressing his confusion.
However, he didn't delve into the matter further. Instead, he said to Lin Qiu'er, "Aren't you capable of bringing bad luck to others? See that child and that greasy old man? Quickly cast your spell and make them suffer terribly."
Lin Qiu'er glanced at him. "What, do you have a grudge against them?"
"Don't worry about what you all think, just do as I say. I'll treat you to something delicious later," Lin Ye urged.
"You said it yourself." Lin Qiu'er's round eyes lit up with longing for delicious food.
Fearing she might change her mind, Lin Qiu'er hurriedly used her abilities on Tang San and Yu Xiaogang. As a result, Tang San and Yu Xiaogang would suffer a series of misfortunes from then on.
Just like Lin Ye a few days ago.
The difference is that Lin Ye found out the reason for his bad luck and took corresponding countermeasures.
After Lin Qiu'er's hair was shaved, she dared not be naughty anymore.
But Yu Xiaogang and Tang San are different; it would be strange if they could find the reason.
Tang San and Yu Xiaogang, these two close friends, were completely unaware that they had been cursed.
After seeing Tang San's proof, Yu Xiaogang's old eyes lit up as he scrutinized Tang San, his mind racing with calculations.
"This is proof from the Spirit Hall, there's no mistake. Old sir, I apologize on behalf of the academy for what happened earlier. Please entrust this child to me."
From the doorman's attitude, Old Jack could tell that Yu Xiaogang was no ordinary man. Seeing that the man had apologized, he went along with it, saying, "No, no, no need to apologize. We're not good either."
"Master, then I'll leave this child to you. Xiao San, you come inside with the master. Remember to be obedient, understand?"
Tang San nodded repeatedly, indicating that he would obey.
Seeing this, old Jack smiled with satisfaction. "Good boy!"
He would never have known that the good boy in his heart was thinking about murder and arson.
After giving a few more instructions, old Jack slowly left.
At this moment, Yu Xiaogang turned his gaze to the opposite side, to Lin Ye and his group.
When Yu Xiaogang saw Xue Di, his eyes widened in disbelief. The old man swore he had never seen such a beautiful and elegant woman in his life.
That icy aura that keeps people at arm's length only makes one want to conquer this woman, but also makes one feel unattainable and inferior.
Seeing the master standing there dumbfounded, Tang San was a little puzzled. He followed the master's gaze and saw that this self-proclaimed pure and innocent virgin, like Yu Xiaogang, had revealed his lecherous nature.
Snow Empress, with her keen senses, noticed the two humans staring at her with disgusting eyes, and her expression immediately turned cold.
"hiss!"
Tang San and Yu Xiaogang shivered, feeling as if they were in a frozen wasteland, or as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over their heads.
This person is terrifying! Tang San quickly averted his gaze, keeping his eyes down and his mind at ease, looking like a frightened quail.
