Chapter 52: Rescue the Dragon King Temple
"Woman, why do you look like this every time I see you?"
A low but familiar male voice came from his ears, which made Hua Jiu slightly stunned, and then turned his head to look, and saw Lou Xiaoyue's perfect side face exposed to the night.
She was startled, she didn't expect him to come, so she stammered and asked, "You, why are you here?" At the same time, his dark eyes were rolling around, and he didn't know where he was looking.
She didn't want to be so wolf, but every time she was wolf, she was seen by him......
At this time, he was also holding her waist and leaping up in mid-air, which made her extremely uncomfortable, and she didn't know where to place her hands. She could even feel the temperature of his palm, and suddenly a deer jumped in her heart, and her face instantly turned red.
"If I don't come, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back at dawn." He replied, a deep voice echoing in her ears, and immediately, her ears were hot.
After leaving the Dragon King Temple, Lou Xiaoyue put Hua Jiu down, and as soon as she landed, she immediately reflexively bounced a few feet away, keeping a distance from him.
At this time, Lou Xiaoyue suddenly leaned towards her slowly, she was stunned, and instantly asked nervously: "What are you doing, what are you doing?" Then he grabbed her hand violently, frowned, and asked:
"How?"
Following his gaze, Hua Jiu saw the broken skin on his hand, and then recalled the scene in the Dragon King Tower just now, so he replied: "I accidentally got it in the Dragon King Tower just now." ā
Her delicate little hands were covered with dried blood, and the skin was torn and turned over on it, which she had accidentally rubbed and injured when she had saved the masked thief. At this time, seeing Lou Xiaoyue's eyes so terrifying, she couldn't help but shrink back.
Hearing her say this, he gave up, then let go of her hand and asked, "What treasure have you stolen?" ā
"Nope." Hua Jiu pursed his mouth, buried his head low, and replied in a low voice.
Lou Xiaoyue seemed to have guessed such a result a long time ago, and then the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing an arc that was not easy to detect.
"But Sect Master, I still have something to gain." Suddenly thinking of something, she said excitedly tugging at his sleeve.
"Oh?" Lou Xiaoyue raised her eyebrows and motioned for her to continue.
However, Hua Jiu began to talk about the whole process of the Dragon King Tower, and the more he talked, the more energetic he became, of course, omitting this part of his intention to grab the painting, and exaggerating the other parts.
"It took me a lot of effort to get to the top." She looked at the crescent moon in the sky and said, then shook her head and sighed lightly: "Alas, who knew that when I came down, I met a thief who wanted to rob my painting, of course I couldn't give it to him, so I entangled with him." He's really difficult, and he can't get rid of it. ā
Lou Xiaoyue listened and nodded in praise: "Not bad." But the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more obvious, Hua Jiu was completely immersed in his own world, and he didn't realize it, still boasting to himself.
"Alas, if you don't make a trip to bite the gold halfway, this treasure has already been securely obtained, it's a pity." She said again.
Lou Xiaoyue's smile became even stronger, if he told her at this time, in fact, he had been sitting on a tree just now watching her every move, I don't know how she would react.
However, he looked over to the Dragon King Temple and found that the thick smoke had already stained half of the sky, and the raging fire seemed to have not been extinguished, burning at the bottom of the Dragon King Tower.
"You set the fire there?" His expression became solemn, and he turned to ask her.
As soon as she mentioned this, Hua Jiu was nervous, she couldn't say that she accidentally caught fire in the fight with the thief, it obviously didn't match the content of the previous boast.
So she could only whisper back: "I don't know." ā
How could Lou Xiaoyue not know the truth, but he promised Ma Qian that he would protect her safety, so he had to deal with this matter.
The Dragon King Temple is the most famous Buddhist temple in the Western Regions, and it is also frequented by the queen's mother, and now the Dragon King Pagoda has been burned to three floors, which will inevitably alarm the palace, and this matter may not be so easy to end.
Besides, the abbot of the Dragon King Temple, Master Wuchao, came from Shaolin, and was later ordered by the emperor to manage the Dragon King Temple, and there was a master by his side, I heard that a set of swordsmanship was surprising, she was a disciple of the hollow gate, and then joined the Dragon King Temple, which is also a bit of a beginning.
The status of these two people in the rivers and lakes is also a bit famous, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with, but after all, they are disciples of Buddhism, and they must not be too much to investigate the perpetrators.
Lou Xiaoyue couldn't help but get up helplessly, he guessed that something would definitely happen tonight. Because of the great changes in the rivers and lakes in the past two days, many people from the rivers and lakes have come to the Western Regions, and I am afraid it is related to the three treasures of the rivers and lakes. After pondering for a while, he looked at Hua Jiu beside him and said, "These two **** should stay in the inn and don't go out, so as not to cause another incident." ā
"But it's going to be boring," Hua Jiu replied dissatisfiedly, her eyes full of begging to look at him.
"If you don't want to die, just stay and don't come out." His eyes widened, and the terrifying look instantly made Hua Jiu swallow his saliva, not daring to say anything more.
Immediately, he turned and walked forward, and behind him she trotted to follow.
On the way, Hua Jiu couldn't help but say to him, "I want to go to the main city to find a friend." ā
"Nope." He didn't think about refusing.
"Why?" She was a little angry, why should she restrict her freedom, even if he was the leader of the Demon Sect, he couldn't do this.
Lou Xiaoyue ignored her, continued to walk forward, walked for a while and suddenly stopped, Hua Jiu, who followed behind, unfortunately bumped into his stiff back, and immediately let out a pain and covered his nose.
"It's okay, I'll accompany you to the main city." He said suddenly.
Hua Jiu was taken aback, "You're going too?" Although she really wanted him to be by her side, so that at least she didn't have to worry about being chased and killed, but when he really mentioned yƬ with her, she couldn't help but think of the process of him teaching martial arts, which was really terrifying.
Overall, he's still a little scary. She thought so.
"Can't I go?" Lou Xiaoyue's questioning eyes glanced over.
Immediately, Hua Jiu shook his head for a while, and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes." ā
Where does the Demon Lord want to go, how dare she care, let's not do this kind of life-threatening thing.
The two rested at the inn for a few hours, and left Xicheng as soon as it was dawn.
The news of the fire in the Dragon King Tower spread quickly in Xicheng, and early in the morning, the streets were full of discussions, all about the fire last night. I heard that it was not providential, but man-made, which could not help but surprise people, and they rushed to the Dragon King Temple to find out who the arsonist was. After all, there are so many superstitious people, and the sudden destruction of sacred things will inevitably cause public outrage.
At this time, in a restaurant near the Dragon King Temple, a boy about seventeen or eighteen years old was listening to the conversation at the next table with his ears pricked up. This young man was dressed in a purple robe, and his hair was erected with bamboo hairpins, and he looked particularly energetic. The young man's eyebrows are clear, his lips are red and his teeth are white, and his smart pupils are as attractive as water droplets.
