Chapter 60: The Broken Temple
After looking at each other and noticing that there was a little consternation in each other's eyes, Qi Feimeng glanced at Zhao Chen, who was still posing for the "touching the corpse" action, and sighed slightly: "You really came with you again...... I thought it was only the previous one. ”
However, she didn't want to explore the specific reasons why the other party could "rub" her "chance", just like the other party never asked her why she could navigate through the "fog of history".
Even friends have their own secrets.
What's more, with Zhao Chen here, she has a greater hope of completing the "task", which is also a good thing.
Otherwise, with her current state of struggling to walk, it would be really difficult.
"I don't know the specific reason, maybe it's related to the portrait of the Bodhisattva I saw in Fang Xuzi's memory?"
That being said, Zhao Chen couldn't even convince himself.
With the characteristics of the "Great Sun Star Cha", it is more likely that it has made some shady deal with that Bodhisattva diagram!
Zhao Chen thought secretly.
At this moment, his ears were the same as the last time when Kagami Village began, and he heard a passage that he didn't know what to say, but he could grasp its meaning:
"The Tang Dynasty should have been in the thirteenth year, and the North Courtyard has been protecting the mansion.
"Phase 1: Protect Zhang Yunlu until dawn."
"Zhang Yunlu?" Zhao Chen looked left and right, but he didn't see outsiders in this black, white and gray ruined temple.
On the contrary, it is a little strange to find that there is no idol in this ruined temple, and there is only a badge more than one person high on the main seat.
The badge is carved from ordinary stone, with a sun in the center and stars carved around it...... However, because it has been abandoned for a long time, many places have been weathered, and it is difficult to see the details.
What kind of temple is this? As soon as Zhao Chen had a question in his heart, Qi Feimeng over there had already spoken: "This is a temple dedicated to the Star God......
"After the Jiashen Heavenly Change, the belief in the star gods also flourished for a while, and there were many temples...... But later, I don't know what happened, the star god never answered the prayers of the believers again, and even the star society that believed in the star god was occupied by demons and became an evil organization. ”
It turned out to be the temple of the star god...... But Fei Meng, you know so much, I'm afraid this insight is no worse than my master! Zhao Chen was thoughtful, but he didn't plan to delve into it.
He thought for a moment, and just as he wanted to ask about the mission, the colors of the surrounding scenery gradually became richer.
A few seconds later, as a gust of cold wind blew in through the window of the ruined temple, Zhao Chen keenly noticed that Miss Qi shivered and shrunk her body.
She had been running away before, and her outer clothes had already been scratched and tattered between tossing and turning, but fortunately, her inner clothes were relatively intact, so she didn't leak the spring light.
But this "fog of history" was in the middle of winter, located in the north of the Saibei, and the outside of the ruined temple was covered with a thick layer of snow, and her clothes were really not warm enough.
In addition, Miss Qi suffered a lot of internal injuries at this time, and it was difficult for her true qi to function, so it was even more difficult to keep out the cold.
Seeing this, Zhao Chen immediately took off his coat and draped it on Qi Feimeng's body.
"Thank you......" In this regard, Miss Qi was not shy and thanked directly.
But this warmth is in my heart.
At this time, there was a sudden crunching sound outside.
It was the footsteps of pedestrians on the snow.
Qi Feimeng listened sideways for a few seconds, and then said quickly: "There are at least ten people, and two of them are really successful.
"There may be something in there that we want to protect."
"It could also be the enemy......" Zhao Chen took advantage of the situation to protect Miss Qi behind him as he spoke, and asked, "How many bullets do you have?" ”
"There's only one shot left...... I originally wanted to keep it for myself......" Qi Feimeng also took the "Silver Moon" in his hand, and then smiled, "Your fire gun has helped me a lot. ”
"Each other, your 'toad light' has also helped me." After Zhao Chen raised the green ribbon on his wrist, he took out a box of bullets from his arms and handed it to the other party, "Let's see if I can use it?" ”
This is what he just found from the leading man of the Chai family.
Seeing this, Miss Qi's eyes lit up, and then after a brief examination, she took out five rounds and pressed them into the wheel of "Silver Moon".
At this time, a group of people from the rivers and lakes, including men and women, old and young, had already walked to the gate of the broken temple from far and near with their luggage and stepping on the snow.
Then, the leader of the group shouted: "It's hard to walk on a snowy night, rest for the time being, and leave again in the morning." ”
He exhaled a cloud of white air from his mouth, showing the coldness.
Traveling at night...... Isn't there a taboo to encounter "trickery" at night in the Tang Dynasty? Zhao Chen's heart moved when he heard this, and he once again noticed the difference between Datang and Daxia.
"Okay, the old man is nothing, but Miss Yunlu can't stand the pain of this cold day." An old man smiled and replied.
"It's useless...... It's a drag on everyone. A weak female voice rang out, her tone full of apologies.
"Ha, we are all people who have received the grace of Zhang Daxia in the demon rebellion, so we naturally want to protect Miss Quan." The old man didn't care much about the authentic way.
With him taking the lead, the rest naturally had no objections, so they stopped one after another.
The middle-aged man in the lead, dressed in a big hat, drew his long sword, took the lead in pushing open the temple door, and came in to explore the way.
He didn't dare to be careless, he looked at the door from afar, and after a while, he saw Zhao Chen and Qi Feimeng on the side of the statue.
This middle-aged man has opened his eyes and can see at night, and at this time he saw a pair of young men and girls with good looks and temperament hiding in a broken temple, and the girl was still wearing the young man's coat, and he was stunned for a few seconds, and he didn't know what his brain was making up.
It wasn't until the old man in the back asked out loud that he came back to his senses, and then bowed his hand slightly to Zhao Chen and Qi Feimeng: "I'll spend the night today, and I'll disturb the two of you......"
And Zhao Chen also saw the middle-aged man's appearance clearly at this time, and found that there was a blood-red mole in the center of his eyebrows, which was unforgettable at first sight.
"Everyone, please excuse me, this ruined temple is not mine."
Zhao Chen nodded at him, and then looked at the others who came in behind the middle-aged man, including the old man.
Especially the girl in white who followed the old man.
This girl is only about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a pretty appearance and a pure temperament, which is very similar to the feeling that the pair of sisters and brothers that Miss Qi and Chai Yugong plan to kidnap give Zhao Chen.
But her skin was extremely pale, and she didn't know if she was frozen or born that way.
This should be Zhang Yunlu who needs to be protected, right?
When Zhao Chen was thinking secretly, the middle-aged man with a red mole on his eyebrows first found an oil lamp with a small hole on the edge of the altar, poured it into the lamp oil, lit it with flint, and found some dry firewood from somewhere, and lit the pyre.
The ruined temple suddenly brightened up and warmed up.
Next, after arranging for the group to barbecue dry food by themselves, he took out three sticks of incense from his package, inserted them in front of the incense table of the Sun and Stars badge, and lit them to worship respectfully.
His movements are serious and his attitude is serious, as if he is a devout believer in God.
"The people of the Stars Society?"
