Chapter 149: The Situation of the Unscrupulous Temple (3)
Xie Li didn't move, glanced at Xiao Yi, and then under Xiao Yi's smiling gaze, he took the lead in getting up and helping Xiao Yi, and the two walked to the apse hand in hand.
"Ah Li, don't be afraid of what happens later." The moment he got up, Xiao Yi said softly, "Maybe I'll let you be a mandarin duck with me for a while." ”
The two staggered towards the apse, and suddenly four people poured out, one left and one right grabbed Xie Li and Xiao Yi, and when Xie Li was still confused, both of them were trapped on the cross in the order.
Underneath the cross, there was a pile of dry firewood.
Xie Li was startled, and couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Xiao Yi, but Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows at the moment when he turned around and no one saw him, "Don't be afraid." ”
It's just two words, but it has a reassuring tone.
And Ye Feng, who was about to get up and make a move, was knocked unconscious on the ground by a hand knife.
Xie Li watched speechlessly as Ye Feng was rudely dragged aside, untied or untied, and was thrown aside like that.
Then, everyone's pious eyes fell on Xie Li and Xiao Yi.
What's the situation?
"Please, unscrupulous Zen master." Linglong stood in front of the pyre, bowed respectfully to the Maitreya Buddha in the main hall, and under the almost fanatical gaze of everyone, the Maitreya Buddha's stomach burst open, and a monk appeared from it.
"Unscrupulous Master, give me a home."
As soon as the monk appeared, everyone in the hall couldn't help but bow down, extremely pious and respectful.
Linglong was the leader, with his hands on top of his head, and the whole person was curled up in a ball, like a fox who bowed down.
Taking advantage of the moment when everyone didn't dare to raise their heads, Xiao Yi quickly winked at Xie Li, but found that Xie Li didn't have a look of fear on his face at all, and he didn't feel a little frustrated.
This girl, why is she not afraid of anything?
The only look of fear I found on Xie Li's face was when she descended in the alley, and the mask that had been embedded in her face cracked.
The unscrupulous Zen master walked out of Maitreya Buddha's belly, the Buddha beads in his hand turned one by one, and he closed his eyes slightly, "Get up." ”
The crowd stood up respectfully.
Then, the unscrupulous Zen Master's gaze fell on Xie Li, and he asked softly, "This is the person from the Southern Chu royal family?" ”
Linglong said with a smile: "Zen master, this is Xie Li, the eldest daughter of Xie Hui, Marquis of Pingnan, who is the current emperor of Anning, and can be regarded as a member of the royal family. ”
The unscrupulous Zen Master frowned slightly, "Xie Hui's daughter? ”
"Even if Xie Hui killed your princess, her father and daughter will pay her debts, and she can also be regarded as a member of the royal family, wouldn't she kill two birds with one stone?" Linglong chuckled, "What's more, it's not easy to bring a princess from the palace, so Zen master should be considerate." ”
Zen Master Wuliang sighed, pretending to be profound, "That's it, since she is Xie Hui's daughter, it is enough to comfort the spirit of Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
He stepped forward, looked at Xie Li carefully, and sighed softly: "Girl, I only complain that your life is not good." ”
After that, as soon as he waved his hand, someone came up with a basin of blood, and before Xie Li could react, a blood-stained brush "scolded" Fang Xuan on his face.
The face is slimy, and even has the characteristic smell of duck blood.
I couldn't help but retch, what kind of monster is this?
In this temple, what kind of unscrupulous honor, the Buddha and Taoist masters are mixed up, which one is this duck blood singing?
However, Xie Li had no right to speak, and the unscrupulous Zen master was babbling frantically about something, and the people kneeling below also chattered. Just when Xie Li was about to take it anymore, the pen in his hand finally turned in a direction and went to torture Xiao Yi.
Xie Li breathed a sigh of relief in the mood of "no one can run away from a grasshopper on a rope".
In the end, there is a person who is treated the same as himself.
After about half a burnt of incense, the charm of the unscrupulous Zen master was drawn.
He took a step back, his eyes slightly closed, and the sound sounded like bells and drums colliding.
"I ask you, do you know your iniquity?"
Xie Lizhang was at a loss, Xiao Yi hurriedly said, "You can know the sin, please be merciful to the Zen master, and give it to the dead to atone for the sins." ”
"What about you?"
Xie Li only felt dizzy, and she didn't know what crime she had committed at all, but because of Xiao Yi's previous experience, she also answered honestly.
"Good." The unscrupulous Zen master clapped his hands and turned away.
"Gentlemen, the man on the shelf is Xiao Yi, the son of King Huan of the Southern Chu royal family, although he once helped Her Royal Highness the princess in the palace, but he cannot be exempted from his sins."
"No, no, no."
"The woman on the shelf is the daughter of Xie Hui, the Marquis of Pingnan, and the lord of Anning County of the Southern Chu royal family. Xie Hui and his people, killing our people, slaughtering my relatives, and now the father's debt and daughter's repayment cannot be exempted. ”
"Neither is it immune, nor is it immune."
"With blood as the contract, the people of Wuliang have made a heavy oath that they will not break Shengjing and cannot return!"
As soon as his words fell, a dagger suddenly appeared in his hand, and with a "swish", he slashed his palm and dripped the blood into the blood basin
And so did everyone.
Xie Li's eyes widened as she looked at these strange operations, in her memory, there were no such strange behaviors......
Then, a maid distributed the basin of blood to everyone, and each of them took it with both hands around their heads, and then drank it without any disgust.
Xie Li endured his nausea and turned his head away.
Then it slowly turned around again.
At a glance, she suddenly discovered that everyone in the hall was so yellow-skinned and thin.
is so thin that even the eye sockets are sunken, and there is not even a little flesh on the arms
However...... The man standing on the side was ...... The tiger has a bear back and looks energetic.
Something is wrong, in Xie Li's memory, she once saw the old Rao of Qianliang. Although he lives in poverty, he is definitely not like this.
Xie Li looked at it intently, and found that their expressions were numb, their eyes were blank, and they were like marionettes.
Below, the unscrupulous Zen master was still making impassioned remarks, but Xie Li couldn't listen to anything, and looked at those ragged people with a pair of eyes, quietly wetting his eyes with tears.
These are all her subjects, even if she doesn't admit it, but they are all in the shadows, obsessed with a hopeless "restoration of the country", how cruel it is to be used by people with intentions.
At this time, the words of the unscrupulous Zen master finally came to an end, he clapped his hands, and the eyes of the crowd focused on him. Then, he let Linglong out.
"Gentlemen, this is the Holy Maiden of Southern Xinjiang Linglong, the Lord of Southern Xinjiang is the Holy Maiden of Yaoguang, the noble concubine of our Great Liang, and she specially sent the Holy Maiden Linglong to help us."
