Chapter 100: Half a Year
In the courtyard of the backyard of the City God Temple, all the objects inside remained the same as when Zhang Yixian did not leave, and there was no shadow of dust on them.
Old Qin Tou dragged the injured body to lead the way in front, and walked through the corridor in the backyard to the main hall dedicated to the statue of the city god.
As soon as he stepped into the main hall, Zhang Yixian felt an indescribable attraction, and when Lao Qin pushed open the gate of the City God Temple with his hand, an invisible incense power burst out of it, and then entered his body with a "whoosh".
"Meet Master Chenghuang!"
Lao Qintou knelt on the ground with a "bang", and then his forehead and eyebrows touched the ground, and his palms were facing the sky, and he was bowing to the sky.
The few people who followed Lao Qin Tou in were all people with the best qualifications and strength selected from the guards of the City God Temple in recent days, and they were not stupid when they saw this situation.
And Lao Qintou, as the temple of the City God Temple, did everything for the poor people, and he often said in his mouth that this was the great grace of the City God, before they thought that this was the humble excuse of Qin Temple Zhu, and today's appearance of Zhang Yixian even subverted their worldview.
While shocked, his knees fell to the ground violently, ignoring the weakness of his body, and he also bowed with Lao Qintou.
Zhang Yixian did not stop their actions, but turned his back to a few people, his eyes staring at the statue of the city god in front of him.
In his eyes, before leaving, it was just an ordinary clay statue, but at this moment, he couldn't see the original appearance, not to mention that it was not much different from the dragon king temple statue he had seen before.
The statue of the god of the city god has been covered with a thick layer of incense, because it does not have the sustenance of the soul like the statue of the dragon king temple, and the power of the incense condensed on this statue of the god of the city god temple is actually even more than that.
When Zhang Yixian was now under the statue, the power of the incense on it involuntarily surged towards his body, and then entered the meridians along the pores of the body's skin.
Zhang Yixian felt it, and after devouring the power of the incense, this power automatically absorbed the same energy as it from the outside world, and then the two converged together, and the mysterious power in his body also increased a little.
He never understood what this was, and the origin of that power was too mysterious, it could not only devour the cultivator's mana, but also swallow the power of incense, and then increase his own power.
If he hadn't felt that this power was not harmful to him, he might have found a place to study it a long time ago.
But when he wanted to use mana to treat Lao Qintou's injuries before, that mana swallowed up his mana to suppress the injury, this phenomenon had never appeared before, and he also wanted to know the reason very much in his heart, but all this had to wait for Yuan Yi to wake up to know.
After absorbing the power of the incense on the upper third of the idol, Zhang Yixian's body stopped absorbing, and a feeling of fullness came from his body.
It was only at this time that Zhang Yixian came back to his senses, and when he turned around, he saw that the old Qin Tou and the others were still kneeling on the ground, looking the same as before.
"Get up, old Qintou. ”
"I've been gone for so long, I can't imagine that this place has been run like this by you. ”
"Back to the city god, it's been more than half a year since you left. ”
"Sure enough!"
Zhang Yixian secretly said in his heart, he heard the white-shirted young man mention the Taishan temple fair on March 28, and he understood that he was afraid that he had been in the Dragon Palace for a long time.
Now it is confirmed from the mouth of the old Qin Tou, and he still feels a little unbelievable in his heart, in his opinion, he has only been there for more than a month, but it has been more than half a year in the world.
Old Qin Tou's body was a little weak, but he only needed to recuperate for a period of time to recover, and the injuries in his body had been cured by the immortal qi contained in the immortal fruit.
"Old Qin Tou stays, you go out to rest. ”
Zhang Yixian said loudly, and the rest of the people slowly withdrew from the main hall, and then closed the doors on both sides.
"Old Qintou, tell me about what happened in the past six months, and what happened to the 'Ten Thousand Gods Post' sent by the White Lotus Sect envoy just now?"
"The eldest lord listened to me in detail, after you left, I will follow the plan and stabilize the ............ of the refugees in the City God Temple."
In the City God's Hall, it took Lao Qintou more than an hour intermittently to tell him everything that had happened in the last six months.
It turned out that after Zhang Yixian left, Lao Qin Tou devoted himself to running the Chenghuang Temple, relying on the money he left behind, and using his own cultivation during the foundation building period, he gradually attracted the wealthy families from the surrounding counties, and then used the escort team composed of refugees in the temple to guard the Chenghuang Temple, while developing his own strength, while looking for news of Zhu Yuanzhang.
Three months ago, they learned the news of Zhu Yuanzhang from a group of refugees who fled from Fengyang, and then he went to check, and then talked with him, and finally confirmed that he was Zhu Yuanzhang that Chenghuang Ye once said.
After that, Lao Qin Tou successively funded Zhu Yuanzhang with thousands of stone grains and tens of thousands of taels of silver, and then sent some of the guards' feelings to him for training.
After staying in Fengyang for a long time, he received a letter from the City God Temple, saying that there were suspicious people staying nearby, when the old Qin Tou rushed back, he was encountering a group of believers who called themselves "Changchun Immortal Temple" to make trouble, which involved some Taoist sects, accompanied by a nobleman of the Yuan Dynasty, in order not to attract the attention of others, the old Qin Tou and the "Changchun Immortal Temple" people fought the method, relying on the foundation of the cultivation to send these people away.
But then because of this incident, the reputation of the City God Temple was great, and then the wealthy families in the Heavenly Mansion gathered here, and the old Qin Tou relied on the dream technique and other magic passed down by Zhang Yixian to develop these people into loyal believers.
Under the influence of more than a dozen wealthy families in Yingtianfu, the Chenghuang Temple on the outskirts of Yingtianfu began to be lively, and its reputation spread all over the radius.
Since then, the temple has received a varying number of pilgrims every day, with tens of thousands of pilgrims at the most, and then the old Qin Tou sent the guards in the temple who were originally selected from among the refugees to patrol the ten miles around the temple, and led them to defeat several bandits with bad influence around them.
In addition, the temple occasionally accepts refugees and distributes life-saving items such as clothing, porridge and food, and the name of the temple has established a prestige among the people, and there is an endless stream of pilgrims who come here.
But ten days ago, they suddenly received a person who claimed to be the envoy of the White Lotus Sect to come to the City God Temple to make trouble, because of his lack of strength and was killed by Lao Qin Tou, and then this person known as the White Lotus Sect envoy appeared again, but his strength reached the realm of transforming into a god, not only that, but he also said that if the City God Temple was not strong enough, it could only be destroyed by him.
As for the White Lotus Sect, Old Qin Tou didn't know much, and most of them were just a few words he had heard from the mouths of the people.
But one thing he can be sure of is that the father of Han Lin'er, the little Ming king who is now known as the Ming King, is said to have been the leader of the White Lotus Sect before, and the specific situation is unknown.
As for the "temple fair" mentioned in the mouth of the White Lotus Sect envoy, it is a group formed by the gathering of powerful temples in the entire world, and its specific role, Lao Qin Tou has never heard of it, and this is the first time he has heard of it.
The next thing was that the white-shirted young man saw that his strength was too low and wanted to kill people, and finally Zhang Yixian killed him halfway until what happened later.
After listening to Lao Qintou's narration, Zhang Yixian fell silent, he didn't expect that it would take him half a year to go to the Dragon Palace, let alone that there was such a transcendent power in this world.
And with the gradual deterioration of the situation in the world, some messy things began to jump out.
The more Zhang Yixian thought about it, the more he felt that this world was not simple, and then asked Lao Qin Tou to go down to rest, tomorrow, after that, he would be the only one left in the huge hall.
With a flip of his wrist, the "Ten Thousand Divine Posts" sent by the envoy of the White Lotus Sect appeared in his palm, and his divine sense sank into it again, and he silently felt every move of that figure, and then he was taken aback.
Because he can't even perceive the specific strength of the image master contained in this "Ten Thousand Gods Post", his current strength is close to the Mahayana period, and the breakthrough is not very far away, but this kind of strength cannot perceive the strength of the master behind the image.
Zhang Yixian only hoped that Yuan Yi in the Golden Seal of the City God would wake up soon, he had accumulated too many doubts in his heart that he needed to answer, just the mutation in his body and the identity of Emperor Yue was enough for him to have a headache, and now there was a White Lotus Sect and a lifeless old mother with this to bring out a temple fair.
Speaking in detail, Zhang Yixian noticed that the time of the temple fair that the envoy of the White Lotus Sect said before was March 28, and then his heart skipped a beat again when he thought of the location of the temple fair.
"On March 28th, the location is in Mount Tai again, isn't this the birthday of Taishan Mansion Jun?" Zhang Yixian was puzzled, and his mind kept jumping, speculating on the intentions of the White Lotus Sect.
After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't have the slightest clue, and then put the golden seal of the city god on his waist in the center of the palm of the idol in the middle of the main hall.
The Golden Seal of the City God is placed where it is placed so that it can take the opportunity to absorb the power of the incense on the idol.
Zhang Yixian sat cross-legged on the futon in front of the statue, his eyes closed, and his heart sank into the dantian.
A trace of mystical aura condensed in his dantian, although mysterious, there was a trace of the taste of devouring silence in it.
Zhang Yixian's divine consciousness was just about to touch this wisp of power, and the next moment there was a sharp pain in his mind, but it was his divine consciousness that was also devoured by it.
"It's a big hassle indeed!"
In this way, Zhang Yixian's opportunities to explore by himself were cut off, and everything had to wait for Yuan Yi to wake up.
The next moment, what he was thinking about was the question of how to place Di Yue, after all, he didn't know anything about Di Yue's life experience, maybe only the old monster Yuan Yi had some clues.
