Chapter 506: Taoist

Top Scholar Lv snapped back to reality at the words of Lv Elevated Man, "The sound of gongs? Is it a wedding or a funeral? Let's hurry!"

In their line of work, they were all too familiar with the sound of gongs.

Following the village path, Lv's Troupe hastened toward the source of the sound, which grew louder and more distinct.

When they saw that the sound originated from a large, imposing courtyard, Top Scholar Lv's smile was almost impossible to hide.

However, as he squeezed through the crowd of onlookers to see what was happening inside, the smile on his face quickly drooped.

He saw a Taoist in a yellow Taoist Robe and a black Taoist Crown, with a unibrow, performing a ritual.

At that moment, he was lifting a gong, circling a man lying on a plank bed, striking it vigorously.

With each strike of the gong, the man's body, as pale as paper, shook uncontrollably, as if something inside him was trying to burst out.
