Chapter 245: The Mystery of the Ancient Temple (I)
Suddenly, a flash of lightning from outside streaked across the sky, and the light of lightning hit the bronze statue of the blue-faced fangs in the temple, making people's hearts furious when they looked at it.
Mei Sanniang shook the goosebumps on her body and said, "Let's wait for the prince!"
"You have to be careful for a moment. Timulan's voice was very serious, and she rarely spoke in that tone.
Mei Sanniang glanced around suspiciously, and asked quietly, "But there are assassins?"
Mei Sanniang thought that her kung fu was good, and if there were assassins, she couldn't be unaware.
"It's not. ”
Just at this moment, another thunderbolt flashed in the sky, which startled Mei Sanniang, and she didn't hear Ti Mulan's words at all.
The War King, who walked in with someone carrying the box, glanced at the ruined temple, asked people to look around, and then walked to Ti Mulan's side.
"Wait a minute, you can get some rest today. It's raining too much, so we won't leave today. ”
"I'm afraid I won't be able to leave. ”
"What?"
The rain outside was too loud, and the voice of Timulan was too quiet, and the war king's mind didn't seem to be here, so he didn't hear her words at all.
"Report, lord, there is still a row of houses in the backyard, and people can live in it if you clean it up. ”
When the king of war heard this, he waved his hand and led people to prepare.
"You wait here first, and when it is ready, the king will call you. ”
As soon as Chu Tianqi left, Tie Mulan searched everywhere for Fang Yuandao's figure, and saw that Fang Yuandao was the last to walk into the temple, still holding a big bamboo basket in his arms, and was drenched in the rain, looking a little embarrassed, and was about to let go.
I saw a black shadow coming out of nowhere, and attacked directly in the direction of Fang Yuandao, the speed was so fast, it was just an eye-piercing effort.
Tie Mulan didn't have time to think, the red silk in her hand flew out directly, and when the black smoke flew in front of Fang Yuandao, Fang Yuandao had already been pulled by Tie Mulan's red silk to her side.
Before Fang Yuandao could understand what was happening, he was already standing behind Tie Mulan.
"Senior sister, what's going on?"
"Protect yourself, and the basket in your hand. ”
As he spoke, Temulan had already flown away, chasing the black smoke and hitting it.
At this time, the guards and secret guards of the war king standing in the temple were startled, watching their princess shake her red long sleeves and chase a stream of black smoke of unknown origin, and her mouth grew in shock.
I didn't expect the princess to know kung fu!
At this time, just when a guard was still in a daze, he was suddenly confused by the black smoke.
In the confusion and curiosity of everyone, the man suddenly fell to the ground and cried, this howl full of pain, in this thunderous and lightning ruined temple, it seemed particularly weird.
"Get out of the way. ”
Temulan roared, her red sleeves covering the golden needle, and attacked the black smoke again.
The black smoke also seemed to sense the danger, and quickly left the man lying on the ground covering his face and wailing, and fled outside the ruined temple.
But Temulan's golden needle was faster, and the golden needle attracted lightning and slashed directly at the black smoke. The black smoke turned into the shape of a person, raised his head and roared sharply, the roar of pain was extremely sharp, as if it was about to penetrate everyone's eardrums, directly hitting everyone's brains, and people couldn't help but cover their ears and scream.
Gradually, the black smoke finally disappeared, but everyone seemed to be able to hear the piercing howl.
Hearing the sound, the king of war and the others rushed to see the people wailing in the broken temple, and saw Temulan in red standing at the gate of the broken temple, and they were startled.
"What happened?"
Chu Tianqi asked in a cold voice, but everyone was still in the midst of tinnitus, and no one could answer his question at all.
Chu Tianqi found out as soon as possible, the guard who had been in close contact with the black smoke just now, strode forward to check, the man had died of anger, and the death was extremely terrifying.
His mouth, nose and eyes were wide open, his face was black and purple, his limbs were instantly stiff, and the most terrifying thing was that his eyes were only a pair of pitch-black holes, and the tongue in his mouth was gone.
"What's going on?"
Chu Tianqi had already darkened his face at this time, this soldier's death was strange, and it didn't even look like it was man-made.
At this time, Fang Yuandao could already hear the sound, and when he saw Tie Mulan, who was still standing at the door of the broken temple, he hurriedly ran up with the bamboo basket.
"Senior sister, are you okay?"
At this time, Temulan was still covering her red hijab and standing up against the wind and rain.
"It's fine. ”
Seeing Senior Sister turn around and walk back, Fang Yuandao was sure that Senior Sister was really fine.
"Senior sister, what was that just now?"
Following Tie Mulan's side, Fang Yuandao, who was full of curiosity, didn't notice Chu Tianqi's face standing in front of him at all, and he couldn't describe it in a difficult way.
"The unclean things have been scattered by me. ”
Through the red hijab, Tie Mulan looked at Chu Tianqi's dark face, and didn't want to explain more, so she pulled Mei Sanniang, whose brain was still a little slow to react, towards the backyard of the broken temple.
Fang Yuandao tilted his head and thought about it, but he didn't understand what this unclean thing was, so he unwillingly kept up with his senior sister's pace.
"Senior sister, you wait for me. ”
Chu Sen, who was standing beside Chu Tianqi, saw that his master's face was extremely ugly, and hurriedly took a step back, and at this time, Chu Mu had already finished inquiring about what had just happened with the people at the scene.
"Master, everyone said that they only saw a cloud of black smoke, and the brother who died was killed by the black smoke. And the black smoke was directly dispersed by the princess who attracted the thunder from the sky. ”
When Chu Sen heard this, he knew that the eldest brother would definitely not lie, but this was too mysterious, right?
"The world is so big, there are no surprises, and everyone has to cheer up today. ”
"Yes. ”
Chasing the senior sister into a barely habitable room that had just been cleaned up in the backyard, and putting down the senior sister's precious bamboo basket, Fang Yuandao couldn't wait to ask.
"Senior sister, what kind of unclean thing is that, how did you get rid of it?"
Although Temulan was still covered with a red hijab, she could see all around her clearly. Seeing Fang Yuandao's curious look, Tie Mulan just explained simply.
"Generally in this kind of wilderness, the broken temple that has been cut off from the incense all the year round, those spirits who live in the mountains love to settle here the most, you used to be a Taoist priest, these should be known. ”
Fang Yuandao suddenly remembered the big fat mouse that was still lying on his cuffs at this time, wasn't he hiding in a ruined temple at that time?
Fang Yuandao wanted to inquire more, but Temulan had already begun to impatiently pick people up.
"Today, you yourself have to be extremely vigilant, those spirits who cultivate evil ways like to eat men like you who have some spiritual energy the most. This bamboo basket will stay with me tonight, you go and rest!"
Seeing Mei Sanniang standing behind her senior sister, Fang Yuandao realized that this was indeed not the time to speak, so he could only nod regretfully and regretfully.
"Then senior sister, you can rest well, I live in the room next to you, you must call me if you have something. ”
Seeing that the senior sister nodded, Fang Yuandao walked out step by step.
