Chapter Ninety-Three: Lanruo Temple
After a while, the four of them stopped vomiting, their breath was disordered, and they stood up with pale faces.
A scholar with a beard smiled bitterly: "Brother Tai, this wine is really a cup of drunkenness, it's really amazing, a cup of belly, immediately turn over the river and the sea!"
Li Dao smiled slightly, and did not explain, but said, "Where did you come from and where are you going?"
The scholar replied: "My name is Tang Bohu, and these three are my classmates, namely Zhu Zhishan, Wen Zhengming, and Xu Zhenqing, all of whom are from Yunxian County, Qinzhou. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info I and other four people are famous, this time to go to the capital to get a job, passing through here, the villagers here are simple and enthusiastic, and the hospitality is difficult, so they decided to spend a night here. ”
"I've seen Brother Tai!"
The other three threw up their hands one after another and gestured to Li Dao.
Tang Bohu asked: "Brother Tai has an extraordinary temperament, and there is a heroic spirit between his eyebrows, which is not very similar to me and other scholars, could it be that he is a person in the public family?"
Li Dao thought about it, took out the token of King Qin, and said: "Don't hide it from you, I am from the palace of King Qin, and this time I am going to Lanyu Town on business, but I have the fate to meet you." ”
Tang Bohu's eyes are sharp, and they can be regarded as people in the officialdom, so they can naturally see the eight dragon carvings on the token, this kind of thing is something that ordinary people dare not fake, it must be from the Qin Palace, there is no doubt that the shape of the token is exquisite, and the status of the person in front of him in the Qin Palace's Mansion is not low.
The four of them suddenly became restrained, and all the pride they had when they drank just now was gone.
The bookseller is angry and scolds Fang Xuan, this is what the book says.
Those uninhibited scholars are often the cynical and deliberate actions of some unintentional and down-and-out literati, in fact, who dares to be wild and uninhibited in front of the big people, and who is not trembling and frightened, respectful.
This time, the four of them went to the capital to seek an errand, and they were already very skillful, and in the face of a person like Li Dao, who was in a high position and power next to King Qin, they began to have a sense of class in their bones, so they were a little weak after learning Li Dao's identity.
Li Dao looked at these people with a smile, the reason why he took out this token was actually considered. Since these four people were encountered by him, they would not sit idly by and let the monsters here harm their lives.
It's just that they rashly said that this place is weird, and they must not believe it, when the monsters are in trouble, it will be difficult for Li Dao to protect them, so they use their identities to suppress them, so that these four people are obedient and cooperative.
Tang Bohu tried his best to pretend not to care, but his tone still revealed his flattering meaning: "My lord, I have admired the name of King Qin for a long time. Among the kings, only the King of Qin is the most eloquent, Qinzhou has been under his governance for many years, the wind and rain have been smooth, the people are full of praise, and the adults can do things by the side of the King of Qin, which is really blessed. ”
A strange smile flashed on Li Dao's face, and he said seriously: "That's, that's." ”
Zhu Zhishan asked curiously: "My lord, this time I went to Lanyu Town in person, the road is far away, could it be that something happened there?"
Li Dao smiled and did not answer.
Instead, he looked at the sky and said, "I met the four of you and was also fateful, I just talked to a few people and felt that it was very compatible, this place is noisy, why don't I find a clean place to drink and talk, wouldn't it be happy!"
The four of them were overjoyed when they heard this, big people like Li Dao had an appreciation for them, and it was too late to be happy, where would they refuse.
Wen Zhengming, who had been silent, said: "When I came here, I saw a temple not far from the end of the village, which seems to be called Lanruo Temple, so why don't I go there." ”
Xu Zhenqing said with a smile: "It's just that adults don't take out a 'cup of drunkenness', then I'm going to run away!"
Tang Bohu and the three laughed, obviously amused by him.
Li Daowan smiled, looked at the big locust tree at the entrance of the village mysteriously, and said, "Brother Wen, please lead the way." ”
The five people walked towards the end of the village, at this time the five people's abdominal organs were all vomited out by Li Dao's wine, the spirit was quite good, all the way talkative, said many witty words, but Li Dao was impressed, it seems that these four people are full of poetry and books, not ordinary readers.
However, Li Dao's focus is not here, but the divine consciousness attached to Nie Xiaoqian's body, since Nie Xiaoqian and the old woman left, Li Dao's divine consciousness has not been feedback.
After all, his use of divine consciousness was still in the exploration stage, and if he was too far apart, he couldn't peek very clearly, but he vaguely felt that Nie Xiaoqian and the old woman had entered a space, and then there was no movement, as if they were blocked.
When Li Dao and the four of them got up to leave, Nie Xiaoqian and the old woman appeared at the entrance of the village, and Li Dao sensed it.
Nie Xiaoqian's voice sounded, and she said a little anxiously: "Grandma, those five people seem to have gone to Lanruo Temple, do you want to stop them?"
The old woman's voice sounded: "Oh, could it be that they noticed something?"
Nie Xiaoqian said: "Just now, Feng Qian took out a jar of wine for the four of them to drink, it seems that he noticed grandma's illusion, and all the ecstasy soup was spit out, and now he is leaving, I am afraid that he has seen through the illusion of the village, and he wants to save these four people from leaving." ”
The old woman had a gloomy face, and said in a solemn voice: "In this way, it seems that what you told me just now is not a lie, there is something wrong with this wind migration, and it is not possible to be in the same league as that stinky Taoist priest in Lanruo Temple!"
Nie Xiaoqian said: "Then what should I do, the day of the half moon is coming tonight, when the adults wake up, if there is no blood food to send, I am afraid that I will anger grandma!"
The old woman giggled, like the sound of metal rubbing, very sharp and harsh, and said: "Tonight, when the yin qi is the thickest, a few of you sisters go to seduce those scholars, be sure to suck out their yang energy, dig out their hearts, this Feng Qian and that stinky Taoist, I will deal with it!"
"Yes!"
Nie Xiaoqian nodded yes, her face glowing with a faint blue light.
Three other women in white appeared beside her, saluting the old woman.
Li Dao smiled mysteriously, and muttered in his mouth: "There are still a lot of ghosts!"
"What did you say, my lord?"
Tang Bohu got closer, heard Li Dao muttering to himself, and hurriedly asked.
Li Dao smiled, "I'm saying, why haven't you arrived yet." ”
"Oh, my lord, Lanruo Temple has arrived, and it is in front. ”
Wen Yiming pointed to the front and gestured.
An ancient temple stands not far away, several lanterns are hung under the eaves, swaying in the wind, extremely conspicuous, and there are two huge stone lions at the entrance of the temple, looking at the five people who came angrily.
Li Dao fixed his eyes and saw that it was an abandoned temple, the temple was overgrown with weeds, the walls of the ancient temple were mottled, a lot of red paint fell off, and even the plaque of "Lanruo Temple" on the temple door was old, the font was blurred, and it hung obliquely on it, as if it would fall down at any time.
Li Dao's mind was a little uncertain, and when he looked at it with aura in his eyes, he saw that there was nothing abnormal in the temple, except for a little evil qi, there was no demonic aura or ghostly aura.
Tang Bohu seemed to see the abnormality of Li Dao's face, and thought that he was dissatisfied with the environment here, so he explained with a smile: "My lord, although this place is barren, it is better than quiet and elegant, and it is not a good place. ”
Li Dao shook his head, but said to the four of them as if he had a meaning: "I'm thinking, how can the temple here be so huge, how can it suddenly become deserted, it's really incomprehensible!"
Zhu Zhishan explained: "My lord doesn't know anything, I learned from the villagers that the temple here is said to have been built after the Taoyuan Village has been in trouble, the villagers think that the feng shui is not good, so they abandoned this place, and built a new temple in another part of the village, and a temple fair is held today." ”
Wen Zhengming said: "I am a scholar, I don't say anything, and these villagers are ignorant to believe in feng shui, which is ridiculous!"
Li Dao glanced at him meaningfully and said, "Yes!"
But he didn't say anything, but said, "Let's go in." ”
As soon as the five of them stepped into Lanruo Temple, they heard a heroic and free singing:
Tao Ke Dao is very Tao,
Heaven and earth and humanity are the way of the sword,
black and white ecliptic, equator,
You say everything I do,
This Tao of oneself is very Tao,
Bah blah nonsense,
One two, three four,
East South Road, West North Road,
Left road, right road, front road, back road,
It's all nonsense,
To each his own way,
To each his own ............
In the main hall, the sword light flickered, and a middle-aged Taoist priest was dancing and playing with the sword, with a free and easy posture.
