[1024] Found it

The Mixian Temple was in the center of the town, and after Jin Ling swept it with his divine sense, he found that this was simply a gossip array.

There are eight main streets in the whole town, all of which extend from the eight corners of the Bagua, and then the river runs through these streets, forming the eight-fold outline of the Bagua.

Each area is a small living area, neatly planned.

The temple is the center of this gossip, the whole temple is not big, there is only one hall dedicated to the statue of Mixian, but the banyan trees around it are very tall, the pale green canopy covers the blue-gray temple ridge, casting a mottled shadow on the apricot yellow temple wall.

There are many believers outside the temple who burn incense and pray, so that the entire Mixian Temple is filled with hazy smoke, adding a bit of immortal energy.

When Jin Ling saw the statue of Mi Xian in the temple, his hand couldn't help but press on the medicine box, which was clearly the appearance of Mi, with a pair of horns on his head, and his appearance was a little demonic, but his eyes no longer showed a fierce light, but were as moist as water, looking at all beings with a faint smile.

In this world, as soon as they are born, they will go to the temple to receive the baptism of the immortals, and since they were children, they will come here to burn incense and pray every fifteenth day of the new year and when there are happy events in the family. So I don't think there's anything wrong with his pair of horns, but I think it's a symbol of immortals.

Jin Ling found that in addition to the believers, there were also several Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes, who were wandering around the Mixian Temple as the administrators of the Mixian Temple, and they were still mortals and had no cultivation.

And they are a little different from the mortals around them, Jin Ling can't say what is different, but he feels that there is an aura on them that is incompatible with here.

It wasn't until Jin Ling accidentally saw a Taoist priest rolling up his sleeves and fetching water by the well, and a rune from the cannon burning prison was imprinted on his arm, that Jin Ling knew why these Taoist priests were different.

They are the prisoners who came here directly through the Holy Gate.

The corners of Jin Ling's mouth hooked slightly, and he silently left the Mixian Temple to prepare.

When it was close to noon, there were many fewer people in the Mixian Temple, and only a few Taoist priests were cleaning the courtyard.

Jin Ling walked up to one of the middle-aged male Taoist priests who looked kind-faced with the medicine box on his back and asked, "Dare to ask Daoyou, is this the Kingdom of Heaven?"

The Taoist priest took the broom hand for a moment, raised his head and looked at Jin Ling suspiciously for a moment, his expression was a little impatient, and he forcibly suppressed it, "Newly from below?"

Jin Ling pulled up his sleeves slightly, revealing the corners of the runes, and as soon as the Taoist priest glanced at it, Jin Ling lowered his sleeves.

"Come with Daoye. The Taoist priest dropped his broom and took Jin Ling to the back of the Mixian Temple.

Jin Ling shook his head, these people who came up directly from below looked kind, but there was indeed a fierce aura in their bones that could not be erased.

Behind the Mixian Temple, there are several Taoist residences, and there are fenced vegetable gardens in front of and behind the houses, and there are people working inside.

The Taoist priest pushed open the door of a dilapidated house next to the firewood room, pointed to the dusty room and said, "You just live here, clean up by yourself and don't bother the Taoist master, before you die, you can only serve in the Mixian Temple, you know?"

The Taoist priest was very impatient to explain to Jin Ling, but Jin Ling's strong understanding still made her understand the situation of these people, because they had not gone through the reincarnation of the Hell Spirit King, so even if they got out of the Purifying Prison, they still needed to serve in the Mixian Temple before the end of Shouyuan.

Mi said before that those runes were chains that bound the soul, probably this is what he meant, if these people left the Mi Immortal Temple, maybe those runes would attack, and they would suffer more than the purgatory.

And when they die, they may be able to enter reincarnation, forget the past, and start anew.

The Taoist priest was about to leave, and Jin Ling hurriedly asked: "Wait, dare to ask Daoyou, I can see a man and a woman recently, and they also came up from below not long ago." ”

The Taoist priest said angrily: "How does the Taoist know that this heavenly kingdom is not only this town and a Mixian temple. ”

After saying that, he left without looking back.

Jin Ling sighed, because she couldn't figure out the laws of this world, and whether the Hell Spirit King was always paying attention to this world, she didn't dare to kill people easily, otherwise why bother, kill after searching for souls.

"The man and woman you're looking for came up two years ago?" a voice suddenly came from the vegetable garden.

Jin Ling followed the prestige and saw an old woman with white hair squatting in a field of green vegetables and watering, and there was also a rune on her side face.

"You know?" asked Jin Ling.

The old woman said: "Last month, the old man heard from the people in the town next door that there were two new Taoist priests in their Mixian Temple, saying that the female Taoist priest was very good-looking, and he also sent her food. As a result, one day I suddenly saw that the woman had turned into a strange person with a full beard and a huge body, and she was almost half scared to death. He also thought that there were monsters, and he felt that the Mixian Temple there was not working, and he was ready to move his family here. ”

Jin Ling was overjoyed, this must be Ruan Mianmian, but he didn't expect them to be in the town next door.

"Dare to ask the old woman, which direction is the town next door?"

The old woman glanced up at Jin Ling, "You can't go, those of us who have runes on our bodies can only live in the town where we land, once you leave this town, those runes will make you worse than dead." ”

Jin Ling walked up to the old woman, rolled up his sleeves, picked up some water on his arm, and wiped it gently, and those runes disappeared.

The old woman looked at Jin Ling in surprise, and Jin Ling asked, "Can you tell me now?"

The old woman glanced at Jin Ling with envy in her eyes, and didn't ask anything else, just pointed to the east and said, "A hundred miles away due east, Jiuyang Township under Jiuyang Mountain." ”

Jin Ling was about to leave, but he stopped again and asked, "One more question, is there anyone here who can cultivate?

The old woman wiped her hand on her clothes and stood up, nodded and said, "Yes, it's just that the old man hasn't been to other places, so I don't know the specifics, but I've heard that there is." Mi Xian also exists, and all the people here believe in the existence of the Eighteen Prisons. So here, don't kill people for no reason, and don't violate the laws and regulations of various places, otherwise the offender will be sent to 18 prisons. ”

"Thank you. Jin Ling sincerely thanked him.

The old woman shook her head and said: "No, the old man's life is coming to an end, and I also want to do a few more good things before I die, so that I can be reincarnated into a good family in the next life, otherwise if I do those livestock and flowers, I am afraid that I will have endless suffering." ”

Jin Ling didn't say anything more, and rushed directly from the temple to Jiuyang Township.

A hundred miles was just a tea journey for her, and when she arrived in Jiuyang Township, she found that the layout of the town here was also like gossip.

Jin Ling went straight to the Mixian Temple, and as soon as she walked into the temple, she saw the two people she had been looking for for a long time laughing and playing, relaxed and harmonious.
