As soon as he entered the main hall, there was a piece lying on the ground, and the leader of the guards hurriedly went to check and found that the person was still angry, but he fainted and breathed a sigh of relief.

But when he looked inside, the first thing he saw was a headless corpse, wearing the clothes of a eunuch, and he immediately trembled in his heart and had a bad premonition.

Then he saw another headless corpse, lying on the ground, a large yellow and white patch on the ground, which made him feel sick.

But at this time, he had to endure the discomfort, and rushed inside quickly, and saw the emperor in a yellow satin robe lying behind the low table with his eyes closed, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.

The leader of the guards breathed a sigh of relief, not like the two headless corpses before, maybe the person was still alive, just like the people near the door of the main hall, just unconscious.

As he got closer, the bad feeling in his heart grew stronger and stronger.

A person who is unconscious will not move at all, at least he must always have a little airflow when he breathes, and his chest must always have some ups and downs.

Although he hadn't come closer, he was certain that the man behind the low table was dead.

Even if it was the last chance, he had to check it with his own hands, not to mention that he didn't know a guard in the house.

Walking quickly, he came to the back of the low table, reached out and pushed twice, found that the person was unresponsive, stretched out a hand, reached for the snort, and then felt the heartbeat and pulse.

In the end, the results all proved that the person had died and the corpse had become cold.

"Your Majesty. The leader of the guards sat on the ground, as if he had withdrawn the last of his strength, and half leaned on the low table, without moving for a long time.

I knew in my heart that this time was over, although he knew that he couldn't blame him for everything, but as a guard, the emperor died, and he couldn't escape the involvement, at least he couldn't keep his official position, and if he didn't get it right, he would go to prison.

When the other guards saw that the emperor was dead, they immediately went out to deliver the news, in several directions, everywhere, to report to their respective masters, and they all knew that the current head of the guards was finished.

No one cares anymore about the outgoing head of the guard.

There was a commotion in the palace, and the news of the emperor's death spread everywhere, and at the same time, a major event happened in the Taoist Temple.

A fast horse, entered the city overnight, the city gate official who guarded the city gate heard that it was a person from the Taoist Buddhist Temple, and did not dare to stop it at all, and hurriedly led people to open the city gate and let the people outside in.

The other party rode a horse, all the way through the streets and alleys, until he reached the gate of the Taoist Buddha Temple, stopped, turned over and got off the horse.

The main entrance of the Taoist Temple is very ordinary, and like ordinary temples, the walls of the temple are also ordinary blue brick walls.

At this time, it was already very late, most of the people in the temple had already rested, the temple door was closed, and the people who came to brush the horses on the horse stakes outside, and the people walked up the stone steps in a few steps.

Smack! Smack!

A series of hurried knocks sounded on the door, breaking the quiet and peaceful Taoist Temple.

Ordinary people never dare to knock on the door of the Taoist Temple like this, one does not dare, and the other is that they all hold their own identity, but this time the temple gate was knocked by such gravity, and the novice inside was a little unwilling.

He walked out with a water and fire stick in his hand.

The moment the courtyard door opened, a figure squeezed in from outside the door, pushed away the novice who was standing in front of the door, and said loudly, "Take me in." ”

Shami sneered, and was about to question, but saw that the other party was also a monk, and his expression was stunned.

Immediately understood that this was his own family, from one of the other Taoist Buddhist temples rushed over, seeing the other party in a hurry and sweating profusely, all the way should have been in a hurry, full of position.

There was a little novice on the side with someone who came and walked all the way inside.

The door of the Taoist Buddha temple was knocked so loudly that as long as there were some cultivators in the temple, they could hear it clearly, and a monk in charge of the temple walked out of it, saw the person brought by the little novice and asked, "Which temple are you from?"

"To the northwest, in the Taoist Temple in the border city, I have an urgent report. The other party breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the courtyard.

"What's the matter?" said the head of the courtyard who rushed over from such a long distance, and let a warrior realm cultivator gasp tiredly, thinking that he had not rested all the way.

It's not in a hurry, it's certainly not in such a hurry.

"What's going on? Or is the lord there dishonest and still worried about their family's throne. The head of the courtyard asked repeatedly.

The person who came shook his head vigorously, "It's not neither, but an Arhat master is dead." ”

"What? I've never heard of an Arhat who is about to die, what is going on?" Hearing that an Arhat had died, the head of the courtyard felt a sinking heart.

Now he is the head of the courtyard, and he is not qualified to be an Arhat, but now that an Arhat has died, this is a big deal for the Taoist Temple.

The person who came told him what happened, and he didn't know the specifics, but he said that Arhat took three disciples to arrest people, but in the end, no one was caught, but several people died near a tea shed on the side of the road.

The head of the courtyard usually does some things to receive people and things, and his brows furrowed, and he immediately understood that these people either died in the hands of the person they went to chase, or they met a master and died in the hands of one or several masters.

"What about the rest of the tea shed?" Thinking that people died in the tea shed, there must be witnesses, unless it was not just a few people and monks from their Taoist temple who died.

"Disappeared, and when we passed, the people in the tea shed disappeared completely, leaving only the bodies of Arhat and a few disciples, and the corpses were all cold, and they died for a while. The man explained.

"Could it be that the shopkeeper of the tea shed and the guy did it, poisoning the killing first. The head of the court asked.

"No, people were shocked to death by the power of the palm, and those three disciples and Arhats were not killed by one person, the strength of the people who killed Arhats is extremely strong, I'm afraid they are not weaker than the Vajra Protector of our Taoist Temple. The person said.

"How can you be so sure?" said the head of the courtyard, puzzled.

"Luo Han had already broken through before he died, and he had improved to a realm, and with such a cultivation strength, he was still shocked to death in the end, and the strength of the other party should be terrifying. The person said.

The head of the courtyard frowned, "You said that the person you want to chase is a young man, and the parchment map has already fallen into his hands?"

The visitor nodded, "Yes, at that time, he snatched the parchment scroll from the abbot's hand, and many people in the temple saw it. ”

"You come with me. The master shouted, and walked briskly inside, followed by the comer.

The little novice retreated and closed the temple gate again.

The area of the Taoist Temple is very large, come to the back of the meditation room, and the head of the courtyard took people to one of the meditation rooms.

On the futon in the meditation room sat an old monk in a yellow robe, meditating with his eyes closed.
