Chapter 9 Yunzhou Rebellion
After many inquiries, Lu Yu and the others finally came to the destination - Xuantian Temple.
However, what appeared in front of them was a dilapidated Taoist temple, with mottled walls, a dilapidated gate that had long since finished painting, and a bright dog hole in the corner of the wall, which made them feel as if they had come to the wrong place.
"Since you're here, you have to ask to know if it's the Xuantian Temple that the person said. Lu Yu saw the doubts of He Yinglian's brother and sister and persuaded him.
He Yingchao knocked on the door cautiously, for fear that a person would accidentally knock on the crumbling door of the folding fan.
With a creaking sound, the dilapidated gate slowly opened, and a sloppy old Taoist priest appeared in front of them!
The old Taoist priest was wearing a gray robe, perhaps because it had not been washed for a long time, and the robe was stained with oil stains, and if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see the color at all.
He has a gray beard on his wrinkled face, and his red eyes are a little swollen.
"Where are you little dolls, what are you doing to harass my old way, don't you leave quickly!" After speaking, he hiccuped, and in an instant, the extremely strong smell of wine filled the air, making Lu Yu and the others frown.
"Dare to ask, but the chief of the Heavenly Channel? We were entrusted to report the news. Even though the old Taoist priest in front of him was far from what he imagined, He Yingchao was still ready to seriously complete the deathbed entrustment of that person.
"Oh, I do know that I have a good name, I don't know if there is any letter to me?"
He Yingchao looked at Lao Dao hesitantly, raised his head and looked at the plaque above his head before confirming it again and again before saying: "A few juniors met a dying Taoist on the way, and before he died, he handed us this letter and asked us to hand it over to the people of Xuantian Guantian Channel." With that, he took out the letter from his bosom.
The sloppy Taoist stretched out his thin hands, solemnly took the crumpled letter that had been wet with blood, and after reading it carefully a few times, a rare sad expression appeared on his cynical face.
"Why go down the mountain and wade through this muddy water. After saying that, he sighed heavily.
The subsequent Taoists changed their previous attitudes and invited several people into the Taoist temple with solemn expressions.
"A few people who can send a letter to my master and nephew regardless of life and death, the old Taoist has thanked me here, a few people can have a good rest in my Taoist temple these days, and I will send a few people away from this place of right and wrong in a few days. The old Taoist priest seemed to have something on his mind, and said to Lu Yu and the others.
In the next few days, the three of them stayed in the Xuantian Temple. Although this Xuantian Temple is dilapidated, after careful observation by several people in the past few days, they found that it is indeed extraordinary, and there is a peculiar artistic conception circulating.
The old Taoist priest also changed his sloppy style in the past, and suddenly changed into a brand-new Taoist robe, and his originally messy hair was also meticulously combed, and the whole person seemed to be dozens of years younger.
However, Lu Yu keenly found that the eyes of this old Taoist priest had a strange light, as if a person had unloaded a thousand catties of burden, and the whole person seemed to be a little reborn, which made Lu Yu involuntarily think of a sentence he had heard in his previous life: After being in the cage for a long time, you can return to nature.
At the same time, a middle-aged man in a python robe in the basement of King Huai's mansion was eagerly saying to a red-haired man: "That secret letter has reached the Xuantian Temple, didn't you say that it was foolproof?"
The middle-aged man's eyes were suppressed with extreme anger, and he wanted to attack but was a little afraid to attack.
"Lord Wang, is this in a hurry? I didn't expect that the two hairy children who had just entered the rivers and lakes would be able to escape the blood guard, and it seemed that it had a lot to do with the scholar named Lu Yu. The red-haired man said unhurriedly.
"It's too late to say anything now, now that the secret letter has fallen into the hands of the people of the Heavenly Channel, it is estimated that it will not be long before my father can get the news, and you and I will not be able to run away by then!" Thinking of his father, who was quite powerful, his heart was empty for a while.
"What are you afraid of, now that the arrow is on the bow, just use this as an excuse to raise troops on the side of the Qingjun!" the red-haired man said this, as if the sound of gold and iron echoed, and then looked at his eyes were actually full of murderous intent.
"This... The middle-aged man was still a little hesitant, he always felt that things were not so simple.
"Does the prince want to pin his life and death on your cool father, or do you hope that your brothers will be able to treat you well in the future?"
"Hmph! It's a joke to expect them to be soft-hearted. Are you ready for what you promised?" the middle-aged man had already made up his mind, and Bo would come out tomorrow.
"Rest assured, each of the three thousand blood guards is not afraid of life and death, does not know pain, and is immortal and immortal. As long as the king gives an order, the world can change its master. ”
"That's fine, I hope the blood guard is really like what you said, otherwise if I fail, you're probably not much better, and the piles you do are enough for you to die many times!" After saying this, he flicked his sleeves and walked out of the underground secret room.
Not long after King Huai walked out, a door suddenly appeared on the wall of the underground secret room, and an old man in a red robe walked out of it and saluted the red-haired man: "Sect Master, I'm afraid it won't be a big deal to let King Huai get into trouble now!"
"I didn't plan to make a big deal!" the redhead said with a smile.
Looking at the surprised expression on the old man's face, he said again: "Do you think that the dynasty's luck is easy to provoke, and now it's not time for me to just use this fool to refine my Dafa, and now my practice has reached the most critical moment, I only need one killing to cultivate the blood god's true body and cast the blood river, and then there are a few people in the world who can kill me." ”
"The sect leader is clever, and his subordinates wish the sect leader great achievements and dominate the world. The old man flattered his own sect leader's ass.
"Go down, draw the circle well, and after the process is completed, I promise you to live forever with me!"
The old man went down happily, and the moment the door closed, he seemed to see the blood flowing and the mountains of white bones flowing inside, and there was a faint stench coming from it.
On this day, the old Taoist priest was about to send Lu Yu and a few people out of the city, but when he opened the gate, he felt faintly uneasy, as if a catastrophe was coming, so he quickly asked Lu Yu and a few people to follow him into the temple and close the door.
"Dao Chief, I don't know what happened so nervously. Lu Yu asked.
"The moment I just opened the door, I was unstable, and I only felt that a catastrophe was coming, and there seemed to be a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood in front of me. We cultivators pay the most attention to whims, and once they appear, they must be closely related to themselves, so I speculate that there is something wrong, and there is a formation protection arranged by me in this view, and if something happens, it can be regarded as the safest place in the city!" the old Taoist priest explained with palpitations.
