Throwing down a dime of silver, Yan Xu walked forward slowly, and at some point the iron-clothed man who poured a gourd of wine took a sip while observing the movements around him, after all, there were too many people in the town during this time, and there were all kinds of people in the rivers and lakes, but there were no good people, so he had to be careful to avoid capsizing in the gutter.

Sure enough, Yan Xu, who didn't go far and looked like a son, attracted a few thieves, as well as two thieves who were slightly famous in the rivers and lakes.

The two thieves were glared at by the iron-clad guest's dazzling eyes, and suddenly they shuddered, and hurriedly turned their heads and left, knowing that they had met a master.

A few thieves who deliberately caused chaos and squeezed over made the iron-clothed man slap him to the ground, half of his teeth fell out, and his face was swollen like a pig's head, and three or five idlers who showed their arms were about to come over to find trouble with sticks, and the iron-clothed man snorted coldly, revealing the gold-backed machete weighing thirty-six pounds that Yan's father had built by himself behind him, and these idlers turned their heads and left, and even the thieves who were still moaning on the ground and cooperating with the idlers to find trouble also got up and ran, for fear that they would be hacked alive if they ran slowly.

Yan Xu had already adapted to these, and he didn't care, he looked up at the Dragon King Temple, which looked very deserted more than ten meters away, bought a good incense candle, and blew the dust on it, obviously no one had come to incense in this Dragon King Temple for a long time.

"The situation is already so serious, and even you can't suppress it?" said Master Lotus with a somewhat ugly face.

"It's been sixty years, and the seal set up back then has become broken, even if there is incense collected by you and me, it will not be enough, I'm afraid it's not far from the birth of that demon. Opposite Master Lotus, a middle-aged scribe who looked very gentle shook his head and said.

Master Lotus was silent, sixty years have passed in a blink of an eye, few of the old friends of the year are still alive, and it is becoming more and more difficult to collect incense, after all, incense is the source of food and power for the gods, who will throw countless incense into this bottomless pit, not to mention that they have done enough, and they can't be cheeky to take all the incense away.

"That's it, the poor nun doesn't have a few years to live, so he gave up this skin, and he must be able to suppress that monster for at least twenty or thirty years. Master Lotus sighed, and then made a decision.

"Are you ready?" the middle-aged scribe nodded, not much surprised or dissuaded.

"Well, the temple has already explained clearly, sixty years ago, you gave up your body to suppress that monster at the bottom of the lake, and now you should be a poor nun, you have lived for sixty more years, and it is still a poor nun who has taken advantage of it. "Master Lotus didn't take life and death to heart, after all, with her cultivation, even if she gave up her body, the soul could also be sealed as a god and enjoy the incense offerings of the Lotus Temple, which was also the reason why the middle-aged scribe did not persuade him.

"Hey, there are still people in your temple who come to offer incense?" Master Lotus sighed lightly, and then said to the middle-aged literati, that is, the Dragon King of Lotus Lake.

"It's been two or three months since anyone came to offer incense, and even the temple was gone not long ago, which is really unexpected. Even if it was so miserable, the Dragon King of Lotus Lake still didn't care in the slightest, but stepped forward and opened the door.

"It's not a shame to bother the dragon king to open the door himself. As soon as the door opened, Yan Xu was stunned, although this person in front of him was no different from ordinary people, but the aura of incense could not hide from him, except for the dragon king of Lotus Lake here, there could be no other gods.

"The little Taoist priest is good at cultivating, if he doesn't dislike the simplicity of the small temple, he will come in and drink a cup of tea. The Dragon King of Lotus Lake could see that Yan Xu was full of energy, and the purple qi at the top door was like a pillar, showing amazing cultivation, so he said in surprise.

"I've seen Master Lotus. Yan Xu took the iron-clothed guest into the temple gate, and after seeing the Lotus Master, he made a salute, although Xuanyun Lao Dao hated bald heads very much, but when he talked about this Lotus Master, he was a little respectful, so Yan Xu was also very polite.

"But the disciple of the Purple Cloud Sect Xuanyun True Person?" Yan Xu's characteristics were very obvious in front of these masters, so although Master Lotus was surprised by his age and cultivation, he still asked calmly.

"It is the family teacher, I have heard the master mention the master many times, and I admire the master very much. Yan Xu replied, patting the sycophants by the way.

"Hehe, Xuanyun Zhenren is quite famous for hating people in Buddhism. After Master Lotus told the truth, even Yan Xu didn't know how to take it down, after all, as an apprentice, he was still very clear about his master's character, and he couldn't even eat food without scolding ten or eight dead bald donkeys every day, which showed how much he hated monks, so he could only reply hehe.

Taking advantage of the fact that both of them were there, Yan Xu asked about the Lotus Lake monsters, but he didn't expect that things would be far more complicated than he imagined.

Sixty years ago, Master Lotus, a middle-aged scribe, and six other monks traveled together, and they also won the title of Eight Immortals.

However, at the height of the Eight Immortals, the heavens and the earth changed, and a black hole appeared in the sky, and there was an invasion of extraterritorial demons.

Although there was a Heavenly Court and the Earth Mansion to stop it at that time, it was still a failure, and it was escaped by its true spirit, and only the demon body was shattered and scattered on the earth, although some were recovered by the Heaven and Earth Mansion, but there are still many left in the world.

It happened that the Eight Immortals, who were swimming in Lotus Lake, encountered a fragment of demons that fell from the sky, and out of a sense of responsibility, the Eight Immortals joined forces to face the demons transformed by this fragment of demons.

But who would have thought that this demon was extremely powerful, if it weren't for Wen Dexing, who was called the gentleman's sword back then, sacrificing himself, beating the demon back to its original form with a breath of righteousness, and sealing the fragment with his body, I don't know how big a mess it would be.

Although after Wen Dexing's death, there were other seven immortals who helped him obtain the position of Lotus Lake Dragon King, but after all, he was a Confucian cultivator, and his cultivation was all in that breath of righteousness, and Confucian cultivation was born to deal with Shinto, so the reputation of this Lotus Lake Dragon King Temple was not bright.

In order to take care of this old friend, Master Lotus built a lotus temple on the nearby mountain, this is sixty years later, the old partner suffered a lot of injuries because of the evil fighting demons, the reincarnation of the reincarnation, the cultivation of the gods, the retreat of the retreat, only the youngest has been taken care of by everyone Master Lotus is still supporting.

"So that altar isn't looking for the monsters in the lake?" Yan Xu scratched his head and said.

"That lake demon is the fish demon that the old man sat down, originally to drive away the fisherman and not to alarm the demon, but I didn't expect to make such a big fuss. Wen Dexing shook his head, his intentions were good, but unfortunately he forgot that people were greedy, and a certain Jianghu person saw the cut fishing boat and found that the fish demon was using a treasure knife, which caused a storm in the city.

Yan Xu was very speechless about this, but the iron-clothed guest was not surprised, after all, he knew very well what kind of virtue the Jianghu people were, not to mention just snatching a treasure knife from a fish demon, even if this treasure knife was the key to sealing the demon, they would not be mistaken, they would not care how many people would die because of it.
