Chapter 198: Zhong is a believer in Buddhism

Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, a towering city as solid as gold.

At night, the lights in Chang'an City are bright, and the high protective walls are crowded.

"Dangdangdangβ€”"

The Big Ben bell on the Vermilion Bird Platform buzzed, and a mysterious gate somewhere in Chang'an City slowly pushed open, and Zhong Kui, who was holding a sickle, slowly floated out of the door.

Zhong Kui's duty is to protect the safety of the Ark Tinder, and as for Cao Cao's army outside Chang'an City, it has nothing to do with him.

In the past few days, Zhong Kui has always had some bad premonitions, he always feels that something bad will happen, so taking advantage of the night, Zhong Kui is ready to patrol Chang'an City.

Zhong Kui's figure slowly drifted through the deserted streets, and out of his notice, a man dressed in white and holding a long sword was standing on the roof, closely watching his every move.

The man in white is none other than Qinglian Sword Immortal Li Bai, who is here for the Ark Flame and is going to do it tonight.

Originally, Li Bai was going to wear a night suit to cover his face, but he felt that if that was the case, he would not be handsome enough, so he simply didn't wear it.

Li Bai took out the wine gourd and took a sip of wine, and then quickly flew down from the roof.

Zhong Kui patrolled all the way, and found nothing suspicious, when he passed a street corner, a man in a beggar costume was begging, and a broken bowl was placed in front of him, and the broken bowl was empty, and it seemed that he had not received a penny for a day.

Zhong Kui originally wanted to give him some money, but he didn't bring a wallet when he went out, so he didn't dare to stay longer and left from the beggar man, and it would be embarrassing if he was stopped to ask for money.

After Zhong Kui left, the beggar man took off his beggar suit, and a blonde foreigner showed an evil smile, this person was Marco Polo, who went to Cao Cao's military camp not long ago to offer advice to break Chang'an, Cao Cao's 800,000 army is Marco Polo's east wind, now the east wind has come, everything is ready, Marco Polo is ready to do it tonight, taking advantage of the internal and external troubles in Chang'an City, stealing the ark fire in one fell swoop.

"Lao Tie, when did the Qinglian Sword Immortal you mentioned come?"

Around the corner of the street, a Fuso swordsman in a samurai uniform walked out, looked at Marco Polo with an impatient expression and asked.

This Fuso swordsman is Miyamoto Musashi, who was lost not long ago, and it just so happened that when he got lost, he saw his "great benefactor", and the "great benefactor" told Miyamoto Musashi that he knew the whereabouts of the Qinglian Sword Immortal, and asked Miyamoto Musashi to follow him and wait for the opportunity to act.

Miyamoto Musashi found out that the occupation of the "great benefactor" turned out to be a beggar, and the money he sponsored himself was all begging, and Miyamoto Musashi couldn't bear it, so he gave the "great benefactor" two catties of clams bought from the aquatic market.

After the two of them ate the clams, the "great benefactor" was going to "work", and Miyamoto Musashi had no choice but to come with him.

"Don't worry!" Marco Polo smiled evilly and said, "Soon, you will get your wish!" ”

。。。。。。

Li Bai flew all the way to the wall, and came to the mysterious door after more than ten minutes, this is a quaint metal door, Li Bai can't see what metal it is, but he can vaguely see through the crack in the door that there is a faint blue light lingering inside, presumably it is the light emitted by the fire of the ark.

Li Bai was overjoyed, and was about to break into the door, this broken door looked inconspicuous, but it turned out to be extremely strong, without a key, Li Bai was really difficult to open it.

After doing it for a long time, the gate did not move at all, Li Bai decided to go back to find Zhong Kui, the city manager of Chang'an, who lived in it, and must have carried the key to open the door with him.

It was more than ten minutes to fly the eaves and walk the wall, and finally at an intersection, Li Bai caught up with Zhong Kui, who was carrying a sickle and humming a little song as he walked.

"Stop!"

Li Bai flew with his sword and blocked Zhong Kui's way.

"You're the hapless kid again?"

When Zhong Kui saw Li Bai, he frowned and said, "Didn't Di Niang Pao not allow you to enter Chang'an City?" ”

"He doesn't count!" Li Bai said coldly.

"It's a personality that suits someone's appetite!"

Seeing that Li Bai didn't take Di Renjie in his eyes, Zhong Kui said that he was very comfortable.

"Since you admire me, why don't you give me the key you wear around your neck!" Li Bai held a sword in one hand and pointed to a bag hanging around Zhong Kui's neck with the other.

"Keys?" Zhong Kui touched the bag around his neck, and said with a puzzled expression: "What I have here is Tieguanyin!" ”

"Tieguanyin?" Li Bai looked confused and said, "Why are you hanging a pack of Tieguanyin around your neck?" ”

"How can you talk about your unfortunate boy?" Zhong Kui snorted and said, "Zhong is a believer in Buddhism, is there a problem with hanging a pack of Tieguanyin around his neck?" ”

Li Bai was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't react for a long time.

"Okay, Chang'an City is not very peaceful at the moment, Di Niang Cannon is arresting people all over the street, if there is nothing to do, leave quickly!" Zhong Kui shook his sickle and said, "Zhong is going to continue patrolling too!" ”

"No way!" Li Bai took out his long sword, pointed at Zhong Kui angrily, and said, "Hand over the key to the mysterious door, otherwise you won't want to go anywhere!" ”

"Alas, you hapless boy, how can you talk to this godβ€”"

Zhong Kui was halfway through his words, and saw a long sword stabbed straight into his chest.

"Bang-"

"You unlucky child, you wait for this god, and I'll clean you up when I turn back!"

Zhong Kui plunged to the ground, and exploded on the spot after saying this.

Zhong Kui was angry in his heart, if he hadn't been tortured by a rabbit in a barren place a few days ago, and his vitality had not recovered, where would Li Bai be his opponent.

After Zhong Kui exploded, Li Bai pulled out the bag he was wearing around his neck from the debris on the ground, and opened it to see that it was really Tieguanyin.

"What about playing with me?"

Li Bai wailed, and just wanted to turn around and leave, as if he had stepped on something under his feet, he picked it up and saw that it was a Rubik's Cube with a faint blue light.

"This must be the key, right?"

Li Bai recalled the square lock hole on the mysterious door, and said to himself with a happy face.

In the shadows on the side, Marco Polo pointed at Li Bai and said to Miyamoto Musashi: "Do you see this person?" He is the first sword immortal of the Tang Dynasty, Qinglian Sword Immortal Li Bai! ”

"Really?" Miyamoto Musashi grabbed his double knives and said, "Then I'll be on it!" ”

"Go ahead!" Marco Polo smiled slyly and said, "You must decide the winner!" ”

Li Bai put away the Rubik's Cube and turned around to leave, when a Fusang swordsman jumped out of the shadows.

"Dare to ask Your Excellency, is it the famous Qinglian Sword Immortal Li Bai?"

Li Bai looked back at the Fusang swordsman in front of him and said, "Do I owe you money?" ”

"I don't owe!" Miyamoto Musashi shook his head and said, "I am the No. 1 Sword Saint of Fuso, and I am here to challenge the Qinglian Sword Immortal!" ”

"Not available!"

Li Bai rolled his eyes and said, "Didn't you see that Young Master Ben was busy?" ”

After speaking, Li Bai jumped into the air with his sword, jumped on the eaves and went straight to the mysterious door.

"Where to go, you must distinguish the winner and loser!"

Miyamoto Musashi said, jumping on the roof and chasing after him.
