Chapter 22: Trapped in the Temple

Seeing the little monk fleeing in a panic, the two looked panicked and glanced at each other.

Luo Xiaotian was still discovered. Without waiting for him to jump off the wall, Chen Anan took the sword in his hand, grabbed his hand, and said with a solemn face: "Follow me!" ”

Chen Anan hurriedly took Luo Xiaotian all the way towards the temple gate.

Just as the two of them ran out of the courtyard gate and came to the practice ground, the gate of the temple was close at hand. Suddenly, at the side doors on both sides of the practice ground, the black-clothed disciples rushed out, and in an instant, they surrounded the two of them in the middle.

"Hah-"

The disciples in a circle shouted at the same time, and the shouts were like rainbows, enough to break the morale of the enemy and shake the heavens and the earth. This kind of formation is not something that ordinary troops can handle, let alone Luo Xiaotian alone.

This is the first time Luo Xiaotian has encountered such a situation. He looked around and saw that he was already surrounded by water. At the same time, the brain is running at high speed, thinking of a way out of trouble. He glanced at the sword in Chen An'an's hand and thought thoughtfully.

Chen An'an seemed to know his intentions, quietly handed over the sword in his hand, and said in a low voice: "Take it, Brother Xiaotian, wait a little - the sword has no eyes." ”

Luo Xiaotian was shocked: What kind of tiger and wolf words did the little girl's family say. Seeing that he didn't take the sword, Chen Anan poked him with the hilt of the sword, and then came back to his senses and whispered: "Do you think it's the plot of the novel?" Hijack you, blackmail them, and I'll get out of the way? ”

These words made Chen Anan look puzzled: "Then are you going to take my sword and kill it?" Luo Shaoxia? ”

"There's no need to fight, kill and kill, it's okay for you to let them accompany me to practice your hands, don't they call you young master? It should listen to you. ”

"Who made you bully me into crying, I can't explain it clearly. The elders of this temple must have thought that I was bewitched by you, who made you look harmless to humans and animals. ”

Hearing what Chen An'an said, Luo Xiaotian couldn't cry or laugh, put on a wry smile, and thought: How can I bewitch you if I am harmless to humans and animals? Master never thought so, and he thought I had a troublesome face.

At this time, the promenade outside the main hall. Three old monks who looked like Venerable came over, led by Master Jingtang. The black-clothed disciples made a gap, and the three old monks stepped into the circle.

Master Jingtang has white eyebrows and gray hair, and stands in front with his head held high.

He raised his right hand and gave a single palm salute to Chen An'an: "Young master, I'm frightened." Then he looked at Luo Xiaotian and said, "Who are you, why did you trespass on my Yunding Temple, and dare to be rude to the young master!" ”

Luo Xiaotian smiled: You must know that there is no Buddhism in Nanyu Country at all, even if you accidentally have it, it is only this place. Now there is no one to worship incense here, and it is simply laughing to death. But then again, in this era, who can create a Buddhism?

"Master, if I'm not mistaken. Monks are supposed to be compassionate, and it is not clear whether right or wrong is so aggressive? Aren't you afraid that the Buddha in the main hall will blame? And as a monk, he is also full of intrigues. I will now say these words aloud, so that the Buddha in this temple, the gods in heaven, may hear. ”

I haven't been afraid of anyone before quarreling-Luo Xiaotian thought secretly.

These words made Master Jingtang secretly puzzled, this young man seemed to know some Buddhism. No one in this Nanyu country has come here to worship incense, and no one has come to listen to the chanting, how did he know?

"It's nonsense, the old monk doesn't need you to teach me the Dharma." Master Jingtang was a little annoyed and angry, but because of the holy land of Buddhism and his identity, he didn't dare to speak ill of him. He could only order the black-clothed disciples, and said angrily: "Trespass on the monastery, take it!" ”

As soon as the words stopped, the black-clothed disciples rushed up and rushed towards Luo Xiaotian.

"Wait! Stand down! ”

Seeing this scene, Chen Anan hurriedly shouted.

The black-clothed disciples stopped, stood in the middle of the field, looked at each other, and did not dare to step forward.

"Let him go!" Chen An'an continued.

Hearing her request, Master Jingtang was also puzzled, and said embarrassedly: "Young master...... Cannot. If the Lord knew about it, you and I would not be able to bear it. The stakes are very high, the lives of these children are at stake, and the young master must not act recklessly! "Master Jingtang still knows the overall situation, this strange young man, no matter what, he can't let go down the mountain. Otherwise, I am afraid that their actions will be revealed.

"Who dares to touch him today? Unless......" Before Chen An'an finished speaking, he was hit by the hidden weapon shot by the master of Jingtang, and he was dizzy for a while and fell asleep. Just as she was about to fall to the ground, Luo Xiaotian hurriedly helped her up and leaned on herself.

"Such despicable means! He also dared to speak of Buddhism and called the Venerable. Luo Xiaotian said sharply.

"This is a requiem needle, the middle one will only sleep peacefully, and there is no harm, which is the despicability you said?" Master Jingtang explained with some annoyance, and then beckoned to the disciples, "Take it quickly!" ”

Without waiting for Luo Xiaotian to argue, a group of people quickly surrounded him, only a few steps away from him.

It seems that Luo Xiaotian can only be captured.

At this moment, a black shadow instantly rushed to the middle from outside the high wall and landed beside Luo Xiaotian. His footsteps were steady, and he started to take advantage of the situation and overturned several black-clothed disciples in front of Luo Xiaotian.

Seeing that the person who came was so skilled, Master Jingtang frowned, and his face changed suddenly. With horror in his eyes, he shouted to the disciples, "Stop, stand back first!" ”

When the disciples who were still fighting for their lives heard the order, they immediately stopped their sharp fists and kicks, glanced at Master Jingtang, and all retreated to their original positions.

"Uncle Qianji......" Luo Xiaotian, who was still stunned, shouted in confusion.

"It's rare for a thousand machines to be so restrained, it seems that I want to thank you for your grace of not killing for these people." Master Jingtang looked at the black shadow that suddenly appeared and said.

The person who came was Qianji, and I saw him get up and retract his momentum, standing majestically. Ignoring Master Jingtang, he turned to Luo Xiaotian and said, "Go!" ”

After that, he pushed Luo Xiaotian and was about to walk outside the temple.

"Qianji, please stay!" Master Jingtang shouted loudly.

Chiki stopped, turned his back to him, turned his head sideways, and could only see half of the dark mask. This gesture seems to say: Do you still want to fight?

"I know I can't keep you, and I can't keep this young man. However, please leave the young master behind. Master Jingtang pleaded with Qianji who stopped.

Luo Xiaotian hurriedly said, "Uncle, don't-"

There was firmness in his eyes.

Since it was Luo Xiaotian's request, Qianji must have listened. Ignoring Master Jingtang's words, he led the two of them straight towards the gate.

It seems that Master Jingtang is still very aware of the strength of Qianji, and he did not make senseless resistance. I could only shake my head helplessly, "Hey-" sighed lightly, and watched the three of them leave.

……

Out of the temple, on the way back to Kyoto City, Luo Xiaotian put the sleeping Chen An'an on horseback and carried it all the way. I walked slowly with Uncle Qianji, and while no one was disturbing, I could talk to Uncle Qianji more.

"Uncle Qianji, when did you come? It's a good thing you arrived in time, otherwise you wouldn't have seen me in the future. Luo Xiaotian said.

"Since you entered Beijing." Qianji said coldly.

"You're stalking me? Uncle Qianji, this is not right, my privacy is gone. You tell me, is there anything you don't know? Luo Xiaotian definitely didn't want to be stared at all day long, so he was naturally annoyed.

"I don't know." These four words floated out of Qianji's mouth lifelessly.

Luo Xiaotian counted silently in his heart, frowned and said, "Uncle, can you say something more than four words?" ”

"Yes." Just two more words came out of his mouth.

Luo Xiaotian sighed, and there was nothing he could do about the person in front of him: "So you just follow when I go on an adventure?" ”

"It's an expedition." Qianji corrected Luo Xiaotian.

"Sure enough, I went against the master. Did you shoot that silver needle in Lingyang City? Luo Xiaotian remembered the incident of the night in the inn and asked Qianji.

"It's not." Qianji replied in the affirmative.

"That's weird, who else but you." Luo Xiaotian thought to himself, and his mind turned around and he couldn't think of an answer. "That old monk seems to know you, how can Nanyu still have Buddhism?"

"He is your mother's friend, and the temple was founded by your mother." Qian Ji talked about Luo Xiaotian's mother, and finally confided a few more words.

Luo Xiaotian was surprised and said, "My mother's friend? Uncle Qianji, how many things have you not told me. ”

"What I can say, I said, what I can't say, I also said, I don't have a good memory." Qian Ji tapped his iron head mask as he spoke.

Luo Xiaotian pointed to Chen An'an on horseback and asked, "Then do you know her?" ”

"I don't know her, but I know her father."

"Who is her father?" Luo Xiaotian asked.

"Your mother's friend, Chen Xiandu."

"Uncle, did I ask you something, and you answered me something. Aren't you going to tell me anything else about my mother? ”

Luo Xiaotian felt that since Uncle Qianji knew so much about his mother, why didn't he tell him everything, but he asked Luo Xiaotian to ask and answer.

Qianji continued to knock on his iron-headed mask and said, "I don't have a good memory. ”

Luo Xiaotian was helpless, not only did he not know his mother's old things, but he didn't even have a reflection of what she looked like. So he asked curiously: "Then let me ask you, is my mother beautiful?" ”

"As beautiful as this An'an girl." Qianji said perfunctorily.

"Uncle Qianji, don't get me wrong, I just treat her as a sister." Luo Xiaotian felt that Qianji was a little gossipy, and he was busy explaining.

"That's as pretty as a plain girl."

Luo Xiaotian heard Qianji's ridicule of himself and stopped. His eyes glared at him, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Qian-Ji-Uncle-"

……

The two chatted all the way, and before they knew it, they arrived at the gate of the capital.

When entering the city, the officers and soldiers saw Chen An'an lying on horseback. After questioning the two, Luo Xiaotian had to make up a reason for being drunk before he could get rid of suspicion.

When he arrived in the city, inadvertently in Luo Xiaotian, Qianji once again said goodbye and disappeared.

For this elusive uncle, Luo Xiaotian is used to it. Don't ask where he's going, don't ask where he's coming from, and he won't tell himself anyway. It was the words that we talked about along the way that made Luo Xiaotian fall into deep thought.

At the beginning, he wondered, why is there only one Buddhist temple in the entire Nanyu country? Uncle Qianji told himself that it was founded by his mother, which was even more incomprehensible. and An An's father, who is also an old friend of her mother...... Are those people doing conspiracy and treachery, or are they doing justice for the sake of heaven? Chen Anan is still asleep, and he can't ask why.

Unconsciously, the gate of the Hou Mansion had appeared in front of Luo Xiaotian's eyes.
