Volume III Family Hatred and National Hatred 146. Three Sects of War Buddha
From the Imperial City to the Yueren Pavilion, ordinary people used to need an hour's journey. Huang Xiao and the others walked all the way, and walked downstairs after a quarter of an hour. After arriving, he didn't pause and walked straight in.
As soon as he went upstairs, a man in the hall hurriedly followed and stopped in front of several people. Then he looked at a few people and asked what was important.
The Taoist gate has rules that do not enter the dust, but there is no rule in the Yueren Pavilion that does not accept Taoists. Business is for money, and the customers are naturally diverse.
The man stopped them because Huang Xiao and the others had unkind faces, not like they came here for recreation, but more like seeking revenge. There are many powerful people in the cabinet, and if they are allowed to go in and make trouble, they will not be able to explain to others.
A few people didn't want to explain, so they dodged this person and dodged to the side and continued to walk upstairs. Annoyed that he didn't get a response, the man walked in front of several people again and blocked the way.
Seeing this, Huang Xiao no longer dodged, and directly and quickly shot to restrain the man.
"Senior brother, don't do anything to mortals. The same door on the side hurriedly reminded after seeing it.
"There is a reason for this, I will report this matter to the sect, and you don't need to bear the responsibility together. Huang Xiao went up and responded at the same time.
After being restrained, the man stood on the stairs and could not move. Someone noticed the abnormality and hurriedly went up to report it.
Not long after, a woman arrived, followed by others. The woman's face was resolute, not Chu Ying.
When the woman arrived, Huang Xiao and the others were pushing open the door of the house in turn and walking in to check the people in the house. There are people in some rooms, and after being disturbed suddenly, there are many abuses and complaints.
But a few people didn't care, and after a quick look, they went to the next house.
"Auntie, are you looking for someone to drive them away?" Seeing this scene, someone behind the woman spoke to remind.
"Don't bother them. Since the establishment of the Yueren Pavilion, there has never been anything like this, and I want to see how those people will react. The woman did not agree, and refused directly.
did not agree to the next person's proposal, also because she knew Huang Xiao, or knew his identity.
A few days ago, when the guards were patrolling the city, although he did not enter the Yueren Pavilion, the woman saw him take people past several times, and after inquiry, she knew their identities.
If they are in high positions and cultivate in their bodies, if they are expelled, who can do it?
After a burst of scolding and complaining, several people did not gain anything, and walked down from the upstairs unwillingly. When he passed by the man, Huang Xiao removed the restrictions from him.
"Send someone to tell the old guys about it, and see how they react. Seeing a few people leaving, the woman commanded the people beside her.
Shortly after the ox cart left the city gate, a sound was heard from the cart, and the coachman heard it and stopped. Then Sima Wenzhi pushed away the meat on his body and walked down with a limp.
At the city gates, when the guards stabbed him with their spears, his calf was affected. After leaving the city, although he tried his best to suppress it, there was still blood flowing out from time to time.
At this time, he was a few hundred feet away from the city gate, and there should be no possibility of being found again. After getting off the car, he ordered the coachman to drive the ox cart to the foot of Qinglong Mountain, and then he could return to the city.
When the coachman drove the ox cart to the northeast, Sima Wenzhi continued to walk slowly south. There is a wooded field a little ahead, where you can take a short break and treat your wounds.
Fortunately, the spear is just a normal regulation, and there are no barbs at the top. The wound was a little deep, but it was not difficult to manage. He tore off a corner of his garment, and after a few moments he bandaged the wound.
Then, he chose a thick forest tree to cover his body and began to guide the spirit to restore his cultivation.
When Sima asked him to resume his cultivation, Huang Xiao and a few people walked out of the Yueren Pavilion and stopped a passer-by to ask him where he could get out of the city.
There are several gates in Jiankang City, and they will not be opened on weekdays. After Huang Xiao inquired, he learned that at this time, only the South Gate and the West Gate could enter and exit, and the South Gate was sparsely populated.
After hearing this, several people hurried to the west gate. After walking out for more than 100 steps, Huang Xiao changed his mind and began to walk towards the south gate. After a few moments, he saw the guard and asked if anything unusual had happened.
At this time, the people of the Song Kingdom were prejudiced against the Taoists, but the guards had seen them and knew the identities of several people, so they hurriedly responded that there was no abnormality, and their tone was respectful when they spoke.
Huang Xiao asked a few more questions, but there was still no gain.
But as he was about to return, he saw blood at the gates. Go forward and pick up the blood-stained soil, put it under your nose and carefully discern it, and eventually you will get something.
"Has anyone fought here?" he asked, turning to the guard.
"No, I didn't. If there is a fight, the gates will be closed. The guards replied in the negative.
"If there was no fight, why was there blood?" Huang Xiao heard this, and the question turned into a question.
"The ox cart with the meat passed by, and the Janissaries had stabbed the meat on the cart with a weapon, and the blood may have flowed from it at that time. The guard heard the questioning and uttered his guess.
"Idiot. Huang Xiao scolded angrily and walked quickly towards the outside of the city.
He had just made out the scent of human blood in the sludge, these guards had fought on the battlefield, and if they were careful, they would be able to recognize it as well.
The bloodstains outside the city were incoherent, and sometimes they could not be found within dozens of steps. Several people split up to search, and after confirming each other, they followed all the way south.
After a few hundred feet, stop. There was no trace of the bloodstains here, and several people lost their direction.
Unable to confirm their location, several people decided to move on. Every few dozen steps, you will search for spirits and investigate your surroundings.
After four or five times, he finally noticed that there was an abnormality in the woods ahead, and Huang Xiao took the lead and hurried over.
When a few people discovered the abnormality, in the woods, Sima Wenzhi also noticed that someone was casting a spell. Then he stopped drawing the spirit and leaned out to look outside.
The visitor was getting closer and closer, and the sunlight was shining into the forest, and he recognized his face when he saw the visitor's clothes, and immediately retreated.
At this moment, his cultivation has not yet recovered, and the spiritual energy replenishment in his body is only two or three percent. Even if he recovers, he can only have a draw with Huang Xiao, and if they detect it, he has almost no chance of escaping.
While several people were walking towards the forest, Sima Wenzhi quickly thought of a way to get out from behind the tree, and soon had an idea in his heart.
"I just noticed that there was an abnormality here, why didn't I see anyone?" Huang Xiao and several people searched for it but did not find anything, and one of them asked suspiciously.
The reason why there was no one was seen was because Sima Wenzhi hid his figure. As a few people entered the forest, he ventured into a stealth spell.
Before, in the Imperial City, he cast an illusion and was recognized by Huang Xiao. At this time, if you cast the stealth spell again, you will also have apprehension in your heart.
But he also has some certainty in his heart, because stealth is not the same as illusion.
When performing illusions, you need to be careful about too many people and objects around you. At that time, most of his thoughts were on Liu Yilong, and others took the opportunity to see through it.
At this moment, he is invisible, and most of his energy is on himself. Although Huang Xiao's technique is domineering, his cultivation is similar to his. As long as you don't get distracted, you shouldn't be seen through again.
When a few people in the forest wrestled, it didn't take long for someone to walk in from outside the forest. Before he got close, a voice of Amitabha Buddha echoed in the forest for a long time.
