Chapter 78: The Spy Sent by the Li Family
Li Changsheng immediately put his hands together to salute him and said, "Salute! So you are my senior brother. I didn't know it was the senior brother who was managing the Louguantai Taoist Temple here, so I came here for a few days but didn't see you in time. I'm ashamed！”
Donglai Dao smiled and said to Li Changsheng, "You and I are the same teacher, so we are brothers. Don't be polite." Then he asked Li Changsheng about his cultivation experience, He couldn't help but look up and sigh, "Some people are born with great strength, some people are born with agility, and some people are born with wisdom. As soon as you arrived at the Taoist Temple in Louguantai yesterday, I felt the energy in your navel eye as intense and vast as the sun's rays. I have been practicing for seventy years, but my Taoist martial arts are not as good as the one and a half years of Taoist martial arts you have been practicing.”
“Wait a minute! What proof do you have to prove that you are Li Changsheng's senior brother? "
Shen Ziyu interrupted Donglai Taoist. She didn't believe that the playful and talkative Taoist was Li Changsheng's senior brother. She doesn't believe that there is a relationship between Donglai Taoist Priest and the legendary Wuwei Taoist Priest, she thinks it's incredible!
Li Changsheng said, "Ziyu, don't doubt him. He's my senior brother." Because he knows he's coming to find him, and there's a pearl sized energy ball inside Donglai Dao's navel eye, which is clearly in the middle of building a foundation. Although the martial arts of Donglai Taoist are not as powerful as his later foundation building, what he has learned is indeed unique in the Tao Te Ching.

“Your request is really strange! Do you want me to prove that I am me? Mr. Shen is indeed from a wealthy family in Beijing. I heard that in the capital, you need to hold the ID card issued by the police in the police station to prove that the photo on the ID card is you. Let me think about it, how can I prove that I am the Donglai Taoist? "Donglai Taoist covered his mouth and felt a burst of joy again.”
But Li Changsheng said, "Senior brother, I heard someone coming from afar. Shall we find a place to hide first？”
Donglai Taoist also felt a faint sound coming from the forest across the river. The three immediately hid behind a huge rock on the riverbank.
In a moment, an old Taoist wearing a unique Taoist hat and a blue robe was sneaking around, looking around in the forest, exploring his head and looking out.
As soon as Donglai Taoist saw this old Taoist, he jumped out from behind the stone and shouted loudly, "Mingyue! What are you doing here？”
It turned out to be the old Taoist with white beard and hair, responsible for collecting donations. His face was crisscrossed with wrinkles, forming a surprised expression.
Mingyue saw that he had been discovered, so he had to step out of the forest and come to the small river to say hello to Donglai Taoist. Donglai Taoist smiled and said, "Are you the spy placed by the Li family in the Taoist Temple of Louguantai? As soon as Mr. Shen appeared on Louguantai, even I didn't know, Young Master Li came here immediately.
The old Taoist stared and said, "You're talking nonsense!"
Li Changsheng was puzzled for a moment:The Taoists in the Louguantai Taoist Temple seemed to have little respect for their leader. Donglai Taoist knows that Mingyue refuses to admit it, He continued with a smile: "Your name is Li Dongshan! You are from Daming Prefecture, Hebei. When you were young, you worked as a bodyguard for Li De's grandfather, and in middle age, you managed the warehouse at the Li family. After you were fifty years old, you worked as a bookkeeper at the Li family estate in Beijing. Five years ago, you left Beijing and disappeared. However, there was an old Taoist managing accounts in my Lou Guantai Taoist Temple. Since you were recommended by the local county magistrate, I couldn't refuse, so I took you in. I found out that you were here often release a pigeon at night to pass messages to the Li family in Beijing. Most of these pigeons were shot down by me with a bow and arrow. The reason why I didn't kill you is because even if I did, the Li family would still arrange another spy."
