Yongzhou City.

This place is located in Xiangxi HN, with beautiful scenery and mountains and rivers.

However, recently, Yongzhou City has been turbulent for a while, which is quite extraordinary.

With the transmission of a snake catching order, many people are enthusiastic to catch snakes, mountain streams, dense forests can be seen everywhere snake catchers, baskets of snakes from all directions gathered to the county government of Yongzhou City, and then transported by waterway to the royal capital city of Chang'an.

For this reason, there have been many conflicts between humans and snake demons, and there have been frequent incidents of being bitten by poisonous snakes recently, which can be said to have caused panic, but the enthusiasm of the people to catch snakes has not subsided.

Meanwhile.

Outside the city of Yongzhou, there is a Xuanqing Taoist temple that belongs to Taiyin Zhenjun.

The Xuanqing Taoist Temple is magnificent, the scale is huge, and it has become lively during this time, and I don't know why, suddenly many craftsmen and Taoist priests poured into it.

The proud protégé of the national teacher Taiyin Zhenjun, the Purple Crane Taoist also came to this Taoist temple and sat here.

What makes people feel strange is that when these craftsmen and Taoist priests enter the Taoist temple, they seem to have disappeared suddenly, disappearing without a trace, and they can only faintly hear the humming vibrations coming from under the surface, as if they are doing something secret.

……

……

On this day, Li Xiao was dressed in a night suit, and under the cover of the night, he urged Xuantian to fly the blade wings and follow the route in his mind to fly through the sky.

After about a cup of tea, Li Xiao had already appeared on a hillside not far from Xuanqing Temple.

Mana poured into his eyes, Li Xiaojin looked into the distance, and found that the Xuanqingguan at this time was brightly lit and full of shadows, and on the periphery of the Xuanqingguan, there were a large number of guards, and a large number of soldiers were patrolling and guarding, with spears and silver blades, revealing a somewhat solemn atmosphere.

"The defense is so tight, it must be strange."

Seeing such a scene, Li Xiao secretly said in his heart.

You must know that this Xuanqing Temple is a Taoist temple built by Zhang Yingshao, that is, Taiyin Zhenjun, and it is definitely not unpurposeful to arrange so many troops to garrison here.

Maybe there is some ulterior conspiracy.

I made up my mind to get a glimpse of the truth.

Li Xiao went around to the back wall of the Taoist temple, where the guards were a little weak.

His figure approached silently like a ghost, came behind a soldier, stuned him with his palm knife, and then lightly touched the wall with his toes, jumped up, and turned into the temple.

The whole process was smooth and smooth, and soon, Li Xiao had already come to the interior of the Taoist temple, hidden behind a rockery.

The power of divine thought spread out, weaving a complex and huge network that enveloped the entire Xuanqing Temple.

The scene touched by the power of divine thoughts was reflected in Li Xiao's eyes along this invisible network, and received feedback.

After walking around the Xuanqing Palace, Li Xiao did not find anything abnormal, nor did he see the figures of those craftsmen and Taoist priests.

"There must be something missing."

Li Xiao muttered.

Under the rotation of his mind, Li Xiao manipulated the power of his divine sense to penetrate into the ground.

It didn't take long for me to get an eyebrow.

I saw that under the ground, there was a dungeon, extending in all directions, extremely secluded, and traversing the underground.

Inside the underground palace, the craftsmen and Taoist priests who disappeared to the surface were busy.

Craftsmen construct walls and chains inside the dungeon, connecting the space.

And those Taoist priests are condensing mana, drawing Taoist scriptures and spiritual patterns on the walls, winding like snakes, shining with golden light, flashing with a faint light.

These spirit patterns are linked to each other, echoing each other from afar, faintly forming a star formation that contains the subtlety of Qimen Dunjia.

This star formation, Li Xiao also had a dabble in when he was learning the Tao in Longhu Mountain.

However, this formation is different in terms of specific details, it is specially used to restrain monsters, and it has no effect on humans.

"It seems that this is where the underground palace is, but I didn't expect that this underground palace was also built by Taiyin True Monarch, which is still not a small hand."

When the scene perceived by the power of divine consciousness was fed back into his mind, Li Xiao's heart couldn't help but move.

According to the plot in the movie, this underground palace should be hidden under the pagoda, but why did it appear in this Taoist temple? Could it be that this has something to do with the follow-up plot?

Li Xiao boldly guessed.

When I was watching it, Li Xiao felt a little strange, why there is a dungeon under the pagoda, Buddhism and Taoism have always been full of competition, and in the period of Tang Xuanzong, there was a trend of opposition, and it stands to reason that there should be no cooperation.

Then the only reason that can be explained may be that this underground palace has existed for a long time, and the pagoda has been rebuilt on the basis of this underground palace since then.

There's only one possibility.

"This underground palace should have been built by Taiyin Zhenjun in order to suppress the demons in the world, and he really has a deep obsession with monsters."

Just as Li Xiao was thinking, a strange feeling rose up, which made Li Xiao suddenly alert: "Someone noticed it." ”

Stepping lightly on the rockery with one leg, Li Xiao jumped up with the help of the rebound force, and with his arm on the courtyard wall, he was out of the Taoist temple.

At this time, in the open space outside the walls of the Taoist temple, there were already soldiers and Taoist priests waiting, fighting with open fire, and the weapons were already out of their sheaths, with a tense momentum.

"Xuanqingguan of the national teacher at night, did you eat the bear's heart and leopard gall?"

A purple-robed Taoist man walked out from among the soldiers and said coldly.

His gaze fell directly on the purple-robed Daoist, and Li Xiao's sword eyebrows raised slightly.

I saw that the face of the person who came was covered with a veil and I couldn't see the face clearly, but from the attitude of the rest of the soldiers and Taoist priests with his horse's head, it can be seen that this purple-robed Taoist is the person who sits in Xuanqingguan.

The Purple Crane Daoist, appointed by the Taiyin True Monarch, came to Yongzhou City to sit in the town, on the one hand, to supervise the acceleration of the progress of snake catching, and on the other hand, to be responsible for the deployment of the formation in the underground palace.

Somewhat unexpectedly, Xuanqingguan ushered in an intruder today.

With his hands wrapped in front of him, Li Xiao smiled and said: "Isn't the Taoist temple for people to pray for, why can't you see people, is this a demon cave and a demon cave, a place to hide filth and dirt?" ”

"Presumptuous!"

After listening to Li Xiao's words, the purple-robed Daoist couldn't help but change his face, his eyes flashed fiercely, and he said in a low voice: "Come on, take him down for me!" ”

As the purple-robed Daoist's words fell, the soldiers and Taoist priests behind him also shouted, and then they attacked Li Xiao with the weapons in their hands.
