Volume 1 Chapter 5 The Temple of Land

After Chu Zhao went down the mountain, he bought a bad horse in a small town near Daqingshan, and then hurried towards Anzhou.

If he hadn't heard what Zhu Wu said about the assassination of the "Three Kings" Yu Shang, Chu Zhao would never have gone down the mountain.

As the junior brother and sister said, with Chu Zhao's current strength, there is no need for experience to participate in next year's "Qingyun Conference", not to mention being able to win the first place, at least there is no problem in winning the top three.

Chu Zhao entered the temple at the age of four, and the master thought he was ignorant, so he changed his name, but he didn't know that he had remembered things since he was born, or that he was not from this world.

He's a time-traveler!

In his previous life, he was an orphan without a father or mother, suffering from a stubborn illness, barely living for 20 years, and finally could not withstand the torture of the disease and died.

So he has been looking at the world as an adult since he landed.

In this life, his surname is Li, his full name is "Li Zhao", he is the current royal family, his father is the prince "Li Zheng" fourteen years ago, and his mother is the daughter of the Song family of the Northland family, and he is the grandson of the first emperor.

Originally he should have a good life, but everything was dissipated due to the sudden death of the emperor, fourteen years ago, the "three kings" rebelled and seized the throne, his father and mother died in the East Palace, and the guards of the East Palace risked their lives to escort Li Zhao, who is now Chu Zhao, out of the capital, resulting in the misfortune of making him, the imperial grandson, the first disciple of the Qingshan Temple of the Ancestral Court of Taoism.

Now he doesn't want to be the emperor's grandson, but he, an orphan in the previous life, wants to do something for his parents in this life, so that they can look at Jiuquan.

It was a thousand miles from Gyeongju to Anju, and although he only had a bad horse, he hurried non-stop, and in a few days he came to the border of Gyeongju.

Therefore, it was summer, and the entire southern region entered the rainy season, and Gyeongju is located at the junction of the north and south, and although it cannot be said that it rains all day, it is also drizzling every three or five days.

Late at night, the sky sprinkled with a curtain of rain, Chu Zhao rode a horse in the wilderness, according to the previous inquiry, there was another hour to reach a county seat, but the old horse under the crotch was already tired and panting, his head drooped, and he looked listless.

Li Zhao's whole body was soaked, but he did not feel the slightest discomfort, like a cultivator like him, he could be called a "master" in the Five Realms, although it could not be said that the cold and heat were inviolable, but the general climate change could not affect them.

In the past few days, the bad horse has helped him to hurry, and he is already exhausted, and Lu Chuzhao at this hour is really afraid that the horse will not be able to support it, so he plans to find a nearby place to shelter from the wind and rain to rest for the night, and tomorrow he will enter the county seat to change a good horse.

The road Chu Zhao is walking on now is not an official road, but a small road, this road is a little difficult to walk, but it saves a lot of time compared to the official road, but it is precisely because of this that it is difficult for him to be able to shine on a place to sleep.

In the dark of night, there is only the sound of horses' hooves and the "rustling" of rain.

After about a meal, a huge black shadow appeared next to the road, giving people a creepy feeling, Chu Zhao saw that his eyes lit up, and urged the horse away, only to see that the huge black shadow was a dilapidated land temple.

The land temple was dilapidated, but it was a sheltered place to shelter from the wind and rain, Chu Zhao came to the temple, tied the horses under the eaves, unloaded his bags and went to the temple.

The door of the Land Temple was closed, and a gust of night wind blew, which made people feel nervous, Chu Zhao stood in front of the door and did not push the door in, his sword eyebrows frowned slightly.

Chu Zhao was not afraid because he was resting in the wilderness, but he was keenly aware that there were people in the temple, and the other party had already discovered him but deliberately hid his breath, and in the unknown situation, he had to be careful.

The hilt of the bamboo sword fell into his hand at some point, and Chu Zhao stretched out his hand and pushed open the temple door.

The temple door "squeaked" sounded, and a gust of night wind blew into the temple like a ghost crying, and the dust in the temple flew, driving away the only trace of warmth.

Chu Zhao walked into the temple casually, glanced at the two black shadows on the haystack next to the altar, and said apologetically: "It's getting late, and there is rain blocking the road, rest in the temple for a night, and hope to bear it." ”

The two black shadows did not speak, and Chu Zhao walked to the other side of the offering platform and lay in the corner to close his eyes and rest.

"A pair of brothers and sisters in distress. ”

Although it was late, and there were clouds covering the moon, this did not affect Chu Zhao's vision, the two sisters and brothers on the opposite haystack, the elder sister looked about the same age as Chu Zhao, and the younger brother was about the same age as the younger junior brother, his face and body were dirty, but the material of the clothes was not good, and it was definitely not something that ordinary people could afford to wear.

Chu Zhao fell asleep with his eyes closed on his burden, completely looking like a passer-by was resting overnight, but the pair of sisters and brothers had panicked eyes, as if they were facing a great enemy, and the two pairs of eyes stared at Chu Zhao for a long time and did not dare to move away, and finally the younger brother was too sleepy to stay up and snuggled on his sister's shoulder and fell asleep.

The silence inside the temple was a little weird, and the continuous drizzle outside the temple didn't know when it had stopped, and the moonlight got rid of the clouds and sprinkled onto the earth.

Chu Zhao was leaning against the wall, there was already a slight snoring, but the woman opposite stared at Chu Zhao without being distracted for a moment, and her beautiful apricot eyes were even more violent.

The woman seemed to have made up her mind, took out a sharp dagger from her arms, and slowly walked towards Chu Zhao.

"I'd rather kill by mistake than let go. ”

The woman came behind Chu Zhao, her expression hesitated slightly, and then she raised her dagger and stabbed at Chu Zhao's back heart!

"Ahh

An exclamation rang out.

The woman was about to stab the dagger into the back of the heart, but she was suddenly hit by a strong wind, and the dagger fell to the ground and slashed out more than a few feet, and her entire chest was hit hard, and the pain was depressed.

"I met the girl Pingshui without injustice or hatred, but the girl wanted to kill me, is this heart too vicious?"

Chu Zhao didn't know when he had sat up, looking at the woman in front of him with gloomy eyes.

The woman's chest was tight and short of breath at this time, she couldn't speak for the time being, her eyes were full of fear and panic, and her younger brother, who had just fallen asleep, was awakened and saw that her sister was being bullied.

"Scoundrel, you are not allowed to hurt my sister!"

Chu Zhao was speechless in his eyes, shook his head and said, "How do you know that I'm a bad guy?"

"You wounded my sister!"

Chu Zhao shook his head and said, "Your sister wants to kill me, and it is a legitimate defense." ”

The little guy was stunned for a moment, and then said, "You just can't hurt my sister!"

Chu Zhao looked at the little guy's stubborn appearance and smiled slightly, leaned his back against the wall, and said, "I won't hurt you, just rest here for the night, and the matter just now will be revealed, let's rest separately." ”

As soon as the words fell, Chu Zhao closed his eyes and rested.

The sister and brother didn't expect that this matter would be brought over by Chu Zhao's words, and they had no intention of pursuing it at all.

The younger brother helped the elder sister to the place where he was resting just now, where were the two of them still half sleepy at this time?

Chu Zhao was just sleeping at this time, and his mind was analyzing.

The two sisters and brothers are both cultivators who have stepped into the ranks of cultivation, they are well dressed, and the dagger is a rare sharp blade.
