Facing the strange Taoist sects in front of him, Li Huowang didn't know what to do.
He was even more afraid of staying with the Taoist sects, as they would also deceive his remaining abilities.
If he really wanted to completely deal with them, the only way left was to climb the steps of the Cangqiang. But the Taoist sects were right in front of him, and he didn't have time to search for his inner extreme pain.
"No, I must retreat in the face of unknown enemies! I need to find Zhuge Yuan!"
After making up his mind, Li Huowang immediately cut off his two ears and threw them away to cover his retreat. He turned around and rushed out of the building.
When he returned to the bamboo forest, the morning mist outside had gradually dissipated. Li Huowang forced himself to move forward with determination. While running, he gritted his teeth and took out the broken bones again to perform divination.
Whether it was through divination to find Zhuge Yuan or Zhuge Yuan sensing someone divining for him, either situation could help him escape the current predicament.
As long as he could kill the wealthy Zhuge Yuan, this crisis would be over!
While running, a donkey cart appeared on the street ahead. It was an old donkey, but it effortlessly pulled the lightweight cart with two women inside.
"Sir?" The pale yellow woman widened her eyes as she looked at the disheveled Li Huowang in front of her.
"Somebody is chasing me! Help me escape!" Li Huowang quickly explained and without waiting for her response, he jumped into the cart.
Just as the pale yellow woman couldn't figure out what was happening, she saw another person who looked exactly like Li Huowang approaching from the front.
"Have you seen someone who looks exactly like me?"
Seeing the second Li Huowang asking this question, the woman pointed to the bamboo forest beside her with her hand, indicating where he had gone.
"I see where you're running!"
Seeing the second Li Huowang rushing into the bamboo forest and gradually disappearing, the woman quickly held her daughter and closed the curtain of the cart.
Li Huowang, who was clutching his abdominal injury, looked at the two identical faces in front of him and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you for your help, I will remember this favor."
Li Huowang never expected that his previous good deed could save his life.
The woman nodded repeatedly. "Sir, you saved my daughter on the boat before. It's only right for me to help you. You're bleeding a lot, please go find a doctor in the village."
Li Huowang shook his head and took out the "Fire Coat Scripture" to heal himself. "You go on your way, pretend that you never met me."
The woman hugged her daughter and nodded, covering the curtain of the cart. She urged the old donkey to move faster.
Just as Li Huowang covered his wounds with the burned cloth, he felt the cart beneath him stop. His heart skipped a beat.
Opening the curtain, Li Huowang saw a face identical to his in the distance.
The person held a cracked bone in his hand. At some point, he had deceived Li Huowang's divination ability and started to track him down.
Li Huowang took a deep breath, jumped off the cart, and stood in front of it. He firmly told the two women behind him, "You should leave, the farther the better!"
The pale yellow woman looked at the two identical figures in front of her, then glanced at her frightened daughter. She didn't even care about the newly bought cart and hurriedly carried her daughter and luggage into the nearby bamboo forest.
Li Huowang sighed heavily. He saw the other person about to say something, but suddenly turned his head to look at a fork in the road.
Seeing the arrival of someone, Li Huowang's face showed excitement. It was Zhuge Yuan!
Dressed as a scholar, Zhuge Yuan shook the folding fan in his hand with interest as he looked at the two identical Li Huowangs in front of him.
Before Li Huowang could speak, he heard the other person say, "Brother Zhuge! I am Li Huowang! This person is from the Taoist sects!"
Li Huowang almost spurted out blood, but he didn't intend to repeat what the other person said. He looked at Zhuge Yuan seriously.
"Brother Zhuge, you were able to kill the wealthy. I'm sure you can see through the tricks of this Taoist sects at a glance, right?"
Hearing the conversation on both sides, Zhuge Yuan thought for a moment and asked with interest, "Did the impure strand of hair I gave you bring any benefits?"
"Of course! Here it is!" Li Huowang used a knife to cut open his stomach and took out the black spindle.
If Zhuge Yuan hadn't mentioned it today, Li Huowang wouldn't have known that the spindle was wrapped with impure hair.
Looking at the black spindle in his hand and the uncertain expression on the other person's face, Li Huowang smiled. It seemed that the other person hadn't guessed that there was something hidden in his stomach.
Li Huowang put the spindle back into his pocket and turned to Zhuge Yuan. "Brother Zhuge, be careful. This Taoist sects is different this time. They can deceive others' abilities."
"You don't need to say it, I already know." Zhuge Yuan put away the folding fan and took out a judge's pen from his sleeve.
Li Huowang stared intently. He really wanted to know how powerful Zhuge Yuan, who could kill the wealthy, was.
Seeing the Taoist sects in front of him take a step back, Li Huowang's face showed a cold smile. Now they were afraid? What were they doing earlier? How dare they impersonate me.
Then, Li Huowang saw Zhuge Yuan clasping his fists and bowing slightly to him. He lightly raised the judge's pen in his hand and tapped it on Li Huowang's left leg.

Li Huowang instantly lost the sensation in his left leg and stumbled to the ground.Li Huowang looked at Zhuge Yuan in front of him with a face full of astonishment, for a moment he thought he was seeing things.
But when he saw Zhuge Yuan raise his judge's pen towards him again, he finally realized that he wasn't mistaken, Zhuge Yuan was indeed attacking him!
"What are you doing! That man is from the Taoist sects that deceive beings!!" Li Huowang shouted in extreme grief and indignation.
With another point of Zhuge Yuan's judge's pen, Li Huowang lost all sensation in his lower body.
Filled with intense resentment, Li Huowang, his face twisted in hysteria, yelled at Zhuge Yuan in front of him: "You're a liar! All the goodwill you expressed to me before was a lie!! You're in cahoots with the Taoist sects that deceive beings!"
Facing Li Huowang's accusation, Zhuge Yuan smiled slightly and didn't plan to say anything. The tip of his judge's pen pointed at Li Huowang's neck.
"I can't die! They're still waiting for me! I've been through so much hardship, I absolutely can't die here in such a humble way!!"
Li Huowang, unwilling to give up, wanted to struggle. But when the judge's pen circled around his head, his body stiffened, and there was no sign of life left.
"Thud!" Li Huowang's body fell heavily to the ground, the black spindle rolled out of his hand and slowly came to Zhuge Yuan's feet.
He took out a white handkerchief and picked up the bloody spindle, handing it to another Li Huowang.
This Li Huowang stuffed the spindle into his stomach, walked over to the corpse, and lifted its face with a small knife.
After flipping through the layers of skin, he found the bald man with the best card skills on the ship who had died at sea.
"Brother Zhuge, it seems that this Taoist sects that deceive beings really thought he was me before."
Thanks to the Black Goat of the Forest Alliance for the reward of 100,000 starting coins!
