9: Temptation

When the white cat stood under the eaves, it quickly shook its body, and a cloud of water vapor on its body dispersed, and at the same time, the yin and evil seemed to be shaken out together.

At the same time, there was a 'meow' sound, and a faint tiger appeared as if he was emboldening himself, and then rushed into the pouring rain.

She followed the root of the wall, climbed the low courtyard wall, leaped onto the tree, landed on the corner tiles, or landed on the straw roof.

Every time she landed, it seemed to be carefully calculated to keep herself from being completely encircled, but despite this, the encirclement was constantly shrinking.

But fortunately, that gap has not been enclosed, and the direction of that gap is the direction where the chanting sound is, she guessed whether it would be this chanting sound, so that these yin and evil things subconsciously avoided that direction in their hearts.

She stepped on the tip of the wind and leaped in the stormy void.

The chanting in her ears became louder and louder, and through the wind and rain, she stood on the roof, and could already faintly see a little brilliance in the rain and mist.

It was the light of the lamp, and neither the darkness nor the rain and fog could hide a ray of gold in the firelight.

At this moment, she was actually a little excited, because in this piece of wind and rain, in this short period of time, in her heart, it has almost become a place where demons gather, and in the middle of this place where demons gather, there is actually a 'Red Jun' dojo?

At this moment, from under the eaves, a strange monkey emerged, and with one hand it grabbed the white cat on the edge of the corner.

"Meow!"

The white cat jumped up in the rain, stepped on the tip of the wind, and jumped over the alley at once, and then landed on the courtyard wall that shone with golden light.

When she jumped up, not only did the strange monkey's hand catch the air, but a wisp of black hair in the rain also swept into the air in the rain and mist, and the white cat looked back and found that under the corner of the house where she had just stood, a strange monkey was lurking there, looking towards herself.

And on the roof, a female ghost with black hair and white clothes was lying on the ridge of the roof, and a pair of white eyes looked at her.

But none of them chased after them, and they seemed to have scruples about this small courtyard.

She knew very well that the 'Red Monarch' dojo would make all demons dare not approach, and if she did, all evil thoughts would be burned.

She reined in some thoughts that she shouldn't have, and with sincerity, jumped off the courtyard wall, landed at the base of the courtyard wall, and looked at the brightly lit house.

Looking at this room through the rain curtain, there is a rare sense of tranquility.

She quickly came to the eaves of the porch, to the threshold of the threshold, and peered inside.

She saw a man in the middle of the nave half-lying in the lamplight, with a book on his chest, reciting aloud the verses in praise of the 'Red King'.

She knew that there were many scriptures about Chijun, and they were different from place to place, including the 'Residence Sutra', the 'Red Flame Divine Mantra', and the 'Praise Sutra'.

His scriptures are praises, the tone is high and low, but the emotions contained in it are extremely full, and the lights in the room rise and fall with his voice, as if fighting against a storm and rain.

When the wind and rain hit the house, the lights inside would not be blown out.

She saw the words carved on the lamps in the room, shining golden in the firelight.

The golden light shone on her body, and a warm fire came to her face, and she saw that there was black gas on her body being burned in the firelight, and she suddenly understood in her heart that if she couldn't find this place, she would probably be trapped in the wind and rain of this Wuze County.

Among them was a strand of black hair that burned into black smoke in the light.

She didn't rush in, just snooped at the door, slowly, because of the heavy wind and rain, even under the eaves of the porch, there would still be rain on her body, and at the same time, she felt that the evil outside the courtyard was thick, and those evil things that had chased and killed her before had gathered.

She even felt that the whole courtyard was surrounded, but the wind and rain had hidden their traces, but those evil, vicious, and gloomy eyes fell on her, and she couldn't help but move towards the house.

She looked at the person lying in the room who was full of emotion and reciting the 'Chijun Sutra', and he seemed to be unconscious. So she jumped lightly over the threshold, and got in, and hid in the light of a lamp not far from the door, shaking off the rain from her body.

Looking at that person again, I felt that this person was very familiar, and I recalled in my heart, remembering that the other party was the person I had seen in the Chijun Temple.

"It's him, he's not from this Wuze County?" She saw that Zhao Yingyun's dress, as well as the temperament when she saw him before, were not like the people in Wuze County.

In her senses, the people in Wuze County have a kind of sinister atmosphere, their eyes are full of that kind of ferocity like insects and beasts, and they often look down like they are afraid of life, but when they lower their heads, their eyes are hiding under their hair to look at people.

That habit of being like a bug in the shadows made her feel like she had entered a worm's nest.

And today, she found that there are not only insect nests here, but also many people who raise yin and drive away evil spirits.

At that moment, she heard movement in her ears, something climbed the courtyard wall of the small courtyard, and she looked to see that it was the monkey that had almost caught her.

Although it was still covered by rain and fog, because the yard was not large, and the fire in the house was shining through, her cat's eye saw that the monkey had very little hair, as if it had been whipped by its keepers, which made it full of bald scars.

However, its eyes were full of ferocity, and there was a hint of madness in its animalistic nature.

She knew that the divine fire of this 'Red Monarch' would take the initiative to burn those evil things, and this monkey was a beast, and its intention was hidden in the flesh, and it would not be burned when it approached.

At that moment, she heard what seemed to be a whistle in the rain, and she immediately thought that it was the order of the monkey handler.

Sure enough, after hearing the urging of the whistle, the monkey's eyes swelled with madness, and I saw it turn over the courtyard and land lightly on the ground in the courtyard.

This Scarface Monkey actually looks like he is practicing martial arts.

It jumped down the courtyard wall in the wind and rain, took three steps and made two steps, and then rushed towards the door of the house, and the fierce beastly wildness and the ferocity that had been trained by man rushed towards the house like wind and rain.

The white cat heard the whistle and was outside the courtyard, and the kind of urging that Scarface rushed in regardless of it.

She couldn't help but let out a 'meow', which was both nervous and reminding.

But before her voice came out, a flash of fire swept across the void at the door, and the firelight was like a knife light, cutting through the monkey that was still leaping in the air.

The monkey was hit by the power contained in the firelight, and it flew out and fell into the muddy water in the courtyard, the hair on its body did not look like it had been burned, but its spirit seemed to have been greatly damaged, the original ferocity was completely gone, it lay on the ground trembling, and its breath quickly dispersed.

The white cat turned around and found that at some point, the man had risen from the wicker chair, holding a book in one hand and carrying it behind his waist with the other.

He was dressed in a gray and white gauze robe, fluttering in the wind, and looked at the wind and rain outside with a slight frown, as if he had not seen the monkey at all, and the monkey stopped moving after a convulsion, and the whistle that drove the monkey outside became more and more sharp.

Even the wind and rain could not hide the anger contained in it, and for a while, the whistle outside was quiet, only the sound of wind and rain, but the white cat looked at the wind and rain outside, and only felt extremely depressed, as if there were countless evils, waiting for an order to take advantage of the wind and rain to rush into this courtyard.

At this moment, Zhao Chengyun opened his mouth and said, "What, do all the senior cultivators of Wuze County want to encircle and suppress me, the teachings of the Great Zhou Kingdom?" Are you going to rebel? I want to see how you can escape the conquest of the Red Yan Army of the Great Zhou State by dying two teachings at a time! ”

Zhao Chengyun knew very well that since the people here decided to submit to the Great Zhou State, it meant that they had a reason why they had to submit to it.

As far as Zhao Chengyun knew, the area of Nanling was under pressure from the Thousand Mountains Country deep in this forest.

The country of a thousand mountains is an allied country, in which there are demons, ghosts, and people who occupy the mountains as kings, and of course, there are people, and together they build a kingdom that is both chaotic and has an internal order.

The Nanling region is sandwiched between the Qianshan Kingdom and the Great Zhou Kingdom, but later I heard that the Qianshan Kingdom wants to incorporate the Nanling region into the Qianshan Kingdom.

In the end, I don't know what the reason is, this Nanling area instead surrendered to the Great Zhou State and became a border province of the Great Zhou State.

It may be that there was some kind of treaty, so the Great Zhou State has not stationed the Chiyan Army, which symbolizes the authority of the Great Zhou State, in Nanling Mansion, and the Great Zhou State has never been strong in Nanling Mansion.

However, if one of the teachings just died here, and if another one dies, they must be afraid of being recognized as a rebellion by the Great Zhou State.

You must know that the Chiyan Army of the Great Zhou State is stationed in Zhennanguan on the edge of Nanling Mansion.

The Chiyan Army of the Great Zhou State has conquered many foreign races, and even some sects have had to surrender, even now there are still many people who remember that when the Chiyan Army conquered the Infernal Ghost Domain, the Chiyan burned for thousands of miles, and it was not extinguished for more than ten years, and there is still a Chiyan Mountain burning in the west of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

This mountain was when the Chiyan army was conquering, and the sacrificial wine drove the force to make an altar for the mountain, and the military advisor did it on the mountain altar, summoning the Chiyan Divine Monarch to come, and defeated the Infernal Ghost King and many ghost commanders in one fell swoop.

Although after that battle, more than ten of them turned into ashes in the flames, and in the thirteenth year after the military division returned to the dynasty, he also died because he could not suppress the red flame in his body, but that battle also played the prestige of the Red Yan army of the Great Zhou State and subdued the Quartet.

If Nanling Mansion said that there was no surrender, it would be fine, and the Great Zhou Kingdom did not want this place so much, and only wanted the Nanling region to be used as a buffer and barrier between the Great Zhou and the Qianshan Kingdom.

But since it is submitted, it gives the Great Zhou Kingdom a feeling of open rebellion, and it may attract conquest.

As soon as Zhao Yingyun's words came out, the outside immediately quieted down, and the depressing yin and evil aura slowly dissipated.

At this moment, a voice sounded: "The Lord of the Teachings misunderstood, he was just chasing a cat demon in the next place, and the cat demon stole a spiritual object in the lower cave, if the cat demon was known to the Lord of the Teachings, then forget it, it was just a monkey raised in the next training, because he was angered by the cat demon, so he didn't listen to the whistle and broke into the residence of the Lord of the Teachings by mistake, can the Lord of the Teachings let him out?" ”

The voice of the person who spoke sounded like there was a feeling of hiding a needle in the cotton, and in his words, Zhao Chengyun was suspected of driving the cat demon to steal the treasure.

How could Zhao Yingyun not hear it, he only heard him laugh and said: "I don't know what a cat demon is, there is a demon monkey that broke into my dojo and has been burned to death by the Red Monarch Divine Flame, if it is your training beast, then come in and take the corpse away!" ”

As he spoke, it was quiet again, and the heavy rain seemed to be the mood of some people, surging with the wind, but it could not enter the room where the light was.

After a while, not long after, someone came to the gate of the courtyard and said loudly: "Teach the lord, the little one has come to collect the body of the mad monkey that trespassed on the adult's dojo." ”

As his words fell, the wind and rain formed an invisible hand, pulling the original door latch open, and the door was blown open by the wind in an instant.

After refining the Xuanguang, the monk can exorcise objects, draw talismans in the void, take them, transmoduce, and so on.

Standing outside the door was a young man, his head bowed slightly, wearing a robe, wearing a hat, and his eyes were hidden under the brim of the hat, so that he could not see clearly at all.

He walked in silently, and when he saw the monkey lying on the ground, his heart couldn't help but twitch, he knew how much his father-in-law liked this monkey, he had been trained since he was a child, he was extremely fierce, and he was even more agile, and it was rare to train him to know a set of swordsmanship.

But he died here today.

He walked over, not daring to look up, for even if he did not look up, in the wind and rain, he still felt a boiling fire surging in the room, as if he would be contaminated with flames and burned as soon as he looked at himself.

He felt like a god-man standing there in the fire, high up in the air, looking at himself coldly.

He picked up the monkey, the surface of the monkey's body was already cold, he didn't even look at the people standing in the firelight, only held the monkey, and exited the door step by step, the door seemed to be blown by the wind, and it closed at once, and the light in his eyes was separated by the door, and then he looked up and looked into the courtyard, as if he wanted to see the people standing in the light, but he couldn't see anything anymore.

So he turned, and walked through the streets, and out of the alley, and came to a dark room, in which a man stood barefoot, dressed in a cloak and holding a whip, and there were drops of water on his body, and he was drenched in a circle.

He put the monkey he was holding on the table and carefully shouted, "Father-in-law......"

The silence was broken by a voice, and the man turned abruptly and whipped the young man in the face with a single blow.

There was a snap, and the young man fell to the ground.

"Rubbish!"

The young man did not dare to say anything, and fell to his knees, and there was already a huge centipede-like blood mark on his face.

The man turned around and came to the table, looking at the monkey that no longer had any breath of life, his eyes were red, and there was a strong murderous intent.

At this moment, another man walked in from the wind and rain outside, this person was wearing a black umbrella and a bell hanging from his waist.

Behind him, followed by a 'big man'.

The 'big man' had a black iron chain wrapped around each of his hands, and he dragged it to the ground and made a screeching sound.

This 'big man' is a corpse puppet! And this man is none other than the exorcist.
