The dazzling light stopped the gray-clothed man from moving forward, even if it was only for a moment, when Qiao Cui and Lu Sheng were willing to join forces, this little time was enough time for them to shake off the people behind them. And the distance of a few zhang was enough for them to completely shake off the pursuit of that wave of people.

Up to this time, only three people in the gray-clothed group were fine, one of the other three was seriously injured, and the other two couldn't see, and I don't know if they were completely blind.

The gray-clothed leader ordered one of his subordinates to take care of the three injured subordinates, and he took the only remaining subordinate and followed him with the shadow tail that quickly disappeared into the bamboo forest.

Qiao Cui and Lu Sheng walked quickly in the bamboo forest hand in hand, this time they did not run on the bamboo, every step was a steady step on the ground, that was because they didn't want to give the tracker a sound prompt. Of course, both of them are excellent in light work, and they don't leave many traces on the ground. When Qiao Cui did not leave the group, he was in the same group as Lu Sheng, and this tacit cooperation was impeccable.

The bamboo forest was the same on all sides, and they didn't know which direction to go, the only thing they could be sure of was the direction in which the two gray-clothed men behind them followed, and they only had to go in the opposite direction.

After a while, they saw a temple appear in front of them, and Lu Sheng suddenly asked, "Is it wide?" ”

The pace of the two did not stop as they spoke, and by the time Lu Sheng finished speaking, the wall of the temple was less than three feet away from them. In the courtyard wall, which is not too high, the roof of the main hall is revealed.

Chotsui, who had lived in the western suburbs of Kyoto for several years, had visited the temple among the bamboo forests, and out of a habit he had developed when he lived in the group, he could estimate the scale of the place if he visited it once. Since Lu Sheng was in the same group as him, of course he also understood this habit, and he asked. Qiao Cui understood Lu Sheng's intentions without asking.

Seeing that the wall was in front of him, Qiao Cui was not verbose, and replied directly: "With the position we are in now, we can walk directly through the roof of the main hall, fourteen breaths." ”

"Then walk through." Lu Sheng said, and the hand holding Qiao Cui's arm tightened, and he was about to get up. Qiao Cui knew what he meant, and the cooperation was still fast and close. The two jumped onto the courtyard wall almost in unison. At the same time, he ran to the eaves of the main hall of the temple, and then walked up the umbrella-like tile ridge.

This temple is as small as Qiao Cui said, there are few monks in the temple, and the people in the Buddhist sect are indifferent to the world, not to mention whether they will find the two people flying by on the roof, even if they find it, they will not shout loudly.

However. When the two of them climbed to the top of the roof of the main temple, from the highest point of the entire temple, the scene they saw with their slanted eyes made their faces change slightly, and the next moment, they fell straight from the roof like stars falling from the sky.

There is no slow movement in this way of falling. If it weren't for the fact that they had full confidence in their light cultivation, the two of them wouldn't want to use such a dangerous way to seek speed.

They were vigilant at the same time, and interrupted their journey, and fell straight down the wall, and hid into the shadow of the main hall, all because of the two clothed men they saw standing under the courtyard wall.

Lu Sheng and Qiao Cui had never seen those two people before, but when they had just reached the top of the main hall, the eyes of those two people looked over without warning. At the height of the main hall of the temple, let the man standing on the ground look at the roof. You have to keep your head up. So if it's not a necessary act, it's rare for anyone to pay attention to places that are so much higher than their line of sight.

And when Lu and Qiao's eyes met the two on the ground, Lu Sheng could be sure that the eyes of the two fell straight on him, not by chance. Qiao Cui read a hint of fierceness in the gazes of the two men.

Falling straight to the ground makes people feel very uncomfortable. Qiao Cui, who was half-squatting on the ground, frowned, a little unhappy in his heart, and said in a muffled voice: "It's really ghostly!" I knew that I would encounter so much trouble after entering the city, and before I was at the city gate, I was willing to risk being shot by the city defenders, and I would have to capture you directly. ”

Lu Sheng also frowned, and the force of the rebound after landing made his internal organs a little shocked, he listened to Qiao Cui's words, forced a laugh and said: "You may think too highly of your own martial arts, if you do that, at this moment, we may be a corpse with arrows in the Yizhuang just now, instead of playing cat and mouse with someone else's coffin in a room." ”

"Hmph, cat and mo......use," Qiao Cui coughed, and then said coldly, "No mouse can escape the pursuit of cats, as long as it dares to show up." ”

"Who is the rat escaper, not necessarily!" Lu Sheng spoke in a deep voice. After lying on the ground with his palm and breathing for a few breaths, his expression froze, and he raised his palm and turned into two fingers in the air and stagnated, then pointed to himself and then to the left.

Qiao Cui could already feel the sound of two footsteps approaching this way. He wondered a little, since these two people had discovered them and tracked them down, why didn't they outflank them left and right? But his light cultivation was not much different from Lu Sheng's, although he had doubts in his heart, he couldn't detect many different opinions from Lu Sheng, so he had to follow Lu Sheng's intentions, and the two of them walked to the left side of the house wall together.

Qiao Cui and Lu Sheng felt out of the heel of the wall with their front feet, and when they took a step back, the two people who were approaching with the footsteps also appeared, it was the leader of the gray-clothed man and his subordinates.

There are also two people in this line, and the pair of strange faces they saw on the roof just now are also two people, so they will be confused. The two strangers under the walls did not follow them because they had spotted the two men on the top of the main hall, they were not with the gray man, and they stayed in the hidden place of the small temple instead of the monks, because they had a different mission.

But when they saw the two gray-clothed men who had crossed the wall, they didn't stay where they were, because they found a hint of murderous intent in their gazes.

Therefore, Qiao Cui and Lu Sheng's departure escaped the pursuit of two waves of people, and it can be regarded as a crooked attack. When they came out of the back wall of the main hall of the temple, they did see a trace of the two strangers entering the side road of the temple from the opposite side.

"How did they know in advance that we were here?" Lu Sheng took a breath and looked at Qiao Cui with a puzzled look in his eyes.

"If they have enough people, it's not impossible to set up people here in advance, there is only one building in this bamboo forest." Qiao Cui's eyes kept watching his surroundings vigilantly, and at the same time continued, "But now it seems that we are looking down on them. The two people standing under the wall just now were not all the way to the man in gray. ”

As soon as his words fell, he heard a calm sentence from the other side.

"Who is Your Excellency, and what is the matter here?"

Hearing this sentence with a not-so-kind aura that the two voices collided together, Qiao Cui looked at Lu Sheng's face with a hint of a smile, and said in a low voice: "I hope those two people and the Jinyi people are all the way, or they can fight." ”

Lu Sheng nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice: "The situation is still unclear, let's hide first." ”

The leader of the gray-clothed people did not expect to meet two masters in this small temple, and even he was almost unable to figure them out, and almost regarded them as the companions of the brocade-clothed people as Qiao Cui wished. Just as the two passers-by were about to make a move, the sound of an ancient well without waves interrupted the momentum of the collision and the flames that were about to burst.

"Amitabha." A middle-aged monk dressed in a light gray monk's robe walked over from a distance. Before his man approached, the voice had arrived; His voice was not very loud, but it was very clear in the ears of the four people standing by the temple with their fists in their sleeves.

This monk's internal cultivation is extraordinary!

The four people with different missions did not communicate with each other, but their feelings in their hearts were very consistent.

The monk did not stop until he approached the place in front of the four people. Although these four people entered uninvited, and they entered over the wall, and it looked like they were about to fight quietly in this Buddhist gate, they were more or less disrespectful to this small temple, which was very revered by the Kyoto royal family and some dignitaries and nobles. This point should have been understood by the four people since they entered the temple, because there is only this plain temple in the bamboo forest in the south of the city. However, there was no trace of joy or anger on the monk's face, and the tone of his voice when he spoke again was as simple and plain as the monk's robe.

The monk slowly spoke: "The four donors came to this temple, I don't know why? ”

This question was asked to each other by the two groups just now, and it was obvious that they were not willing to answer it, so when the monk repeated the question, although they hesitated, still no one answered. However, because of the monk's martial arts, they did not show much displeasure. The presence of this monk also indirectly reminded them that the special features of this place were not suitable for them to use force.

Seeing that none of the four of them answered, the monk still said in a very light tone: "If the four donors come to worship the Buddha, the little monk can be the guide; If you come to find someone, the temple has always been quiet, today only one guest is welcomed, and the monk can also be a guide; If you are not here for this, the little monk has just boiled a pot of tea in the meditation room, and it is estimated that the hour will be boiling at this moment, and the little monk can also be a guide and take you to drink tea to reduce fatigue. ”

Although the monk's words were complicated, there was a subtext in the words, and they gave the four of them enough steps to exonerate.

As soon as he finished speaking, one of the two cloth-clothed men bowed to the monk with his hands together, and then said, "The gentleman who led the donkey is our friend." ”

The words of the cloth-clothed man and the words of the monk had given the two gray-clothed men sufficient hints, but even so, the gray-clothed man still refused to leave until he was completely sure that there was no one he was looking for in the temple. The leader of the gray-clothed man also bowed to the monk with his palms together, and then said in a harmonious voice: "I have come here to worship the Buddha." ”

What is the Buddha? The people who worship the Buddha do not enter through the main gate, but they want to climb over the wall? What kind of etiquette is this, I almost smashed the temple!.
