Repeated temptations
However, even if Chi Zhongtian wanted to leave quietly, then those guards of Yanyun Hall would not be so derelict in their duties, and not long after Chi Zhongtian left, there were guards who went to report it.
Yanyuntang is passed down from generation to generation by the father and son of the Jin family, so in order to control the gang more haode, there are not so many complicated institutions, except for Jin Chi, there is not even a deputy hall master, and the people who usually manage the trivial affairs in the gang are a few disciples who are older, more experienced, and have strong martial arts. The Dharma Protector Altar, the patrol altar is responsible for collecting information and investigating things, the Dharma Altar is responsible for helping the disciples to precept, and the Dharma Protector Altar is responsible for guarding the safety of the gang leader and Yanyun Hall, the stations of these altars are located not far from Yanyun Hall, however, except for Guo Heyang, who patrols the altar, will often go to see Jin Chi to report to him on the dynamics of the rivers and lakes, the other two altar owners generally do not show up, Jin Chi manages the gang more by personal charm and Yanyuntang's strong financial resources, and the disciples in the gang are subservient to Jin Chi's prestige and can receive a generous remuneration, so Yanyuntang has never had anything inside** things.
However, Jin Chi is still quite concerned about the main altar of Yanyun Hall in Yanjing City, and every guard and every servant in Yanyun Hall has been strictly selected. These people are absolutely loyal to Jin Chi, no, as soon as Chi Zhongtian went out, someone immediately went to report to Jin Chi.
All the way to the north, Chi Zhongtian did not stop, most of the time was in a hurry, when passing through Hongyan Building, he suddenly remembered that he still had an appointment with Yongmen Zidi, but thinking that it had been delayed for so long, Yongmen Zidi must have gone back, and he still had important things to do, so he could only apologize to Yongmen Zidi another day.
In fact, what Chi Zhongtian didn't know was that as soon as he walked from Hongyan Tower, Yongmen Zidi came down from the second floor, in fact, Yongmen Zidi had just finished his work, if Chi Zhongtian stopped to go in and take a look, he would find that it was a coincidence, but sometimes things are not so coincidental.
Out of the north gate, Chi Zhongtian asked a few firewood sellers next to him about the location of the water purification temple, and then continued to walk forward.
It didn't take long for Chi Zhongtian to walk to the place where Guo Heyang was attacked just now, but at this time, the place had been cleaned up, and others could no longer see any clues.
The pure water view is located in the north of Yanjing City, it is a Taoist temple built hundreds of years ago, the original incense is not vigorous, until the current dynasty is set in Yanjing City, Yanjing City and the surrounding suburbs have begun to prosper, so the incense of the pure water view was once very vigorous, and the pilgrims and tourists who come and go every day are endless.
However, when the pond came here today, it was found that it was very deserted, the water purification view covers an area of more than 50 miles, in addition to several places in the temple dedicated to the Taoist Zun, there are also a lot of attic pavilions, it is because there were often many people who did not worship in the past, just to come here to play.
The front of the Pure Water View Gate is very spectacular, the two red lacquer gates are as high as more than three zhang, there are white jade railings and stone pillars outside the door, in addition to dozens of stone stairs leading directly to the main gate.
Chi Zhongtian was standing under the stone stairs at this time, seeing that the door was open but no one was coming, Chi Zhongtian did not dare to rush in, so he had to observe outside the door now.
A moment later, Chi Zhongtian was about to go in to find out, when a little Taoist priest happened to come out of the water purification view.
After the little Taoist priest approached, Chi Zhongtian took a closer look and found that the little Taoist priest was about the same age as himself, but Chi Zhongtian could see that although he was wearing a Taoist robe, his face was not right, and he did not look like a monk and cultivator. When Chi Zhongtian was young, he was very interested in the first strange book of China "I Ching", which made Chi Zhongtian feel very mysterious and curious, and now at first glance, this little Taoist priest has "eyebrows and bones are very protruding, plus the bottom pine under the chin", which is a sign of arrogance and arrogance, Chi Zhongtian This is the first time that the things in the Book of Changes are used in practice, and I don't know if it works, but this is nothing more than the habit of the memory in the mind bursting out instantly.
The little Taoist priest spoke: "Dare to ask this benefactor, what is the matter here?"
Chi Zhongtian reasoned his thoughts and said: "In Xia Chi Zhongtian, I especially want to come here to visit someone." ”
At first glance, when he heard the three words of Dao Chi Zhongtian, the little Daoist's eyes suddenly flickered, but after a moment, he returned to normal, and said, "I don't know which one the donor is visiting?"
Chi Zhongtian said: "I want to come to visit a person named Yu Chengmo." ”
Chi Zhongtian thought about it on the road for a long time, originally planned to come to quietly explore the truth, but the closer he got to the view of pure water, the heavier the thoughts about Ao Shuangxue in his heart, and under the impulse, Chi Zhongtian wanted to directly meet Yu Chengmo to see what he was going to do, Chi Zhongtian even thought about it, if he had no choice, he could give him the Chengying Sword in his hand, as long as he could exchange it for Ao Shuangxue, as for Mu Chengsong's explanation to him, Chi Zhongtian had already forgotten it at this time. The hero is still sad to pass the beauty pass, not to mention that Chi Zhongtian is an ignorant young man, besides, Ao Shuangxue is much more important in Chi Zhongtian's heart than any beauty.
After listening to Chi Zhongtian's words, the little Taoist priest smiled slightly and said: "Donor, there is no one named Yu Chengmo here, I want to come to the donor to find the wrong place." ”
Chi Zhongtian said: "There shouldn't be anything wrong, I see that you are not the person in charge here, you go and call a person in charge." ”
The little Taoist priest rolled his eyes and said, "Then the donor will wait a while, and I will go in and report it." ”
After speaking, the little Taoist priest turned around and walked towards the Taoist temple.
After a while, five people walked out of the Taoist temple, and the first one was wearing a Taoist temple, holding a dust, and wearing a Taoist robe. The other four people were all dressed as little Taoists, including the little Taoist just now.
After approaching, the old Taoist priest at the head said, "I heard that the Shi is looking for Yu Chengmo?"
Chi Zhongtian said: "That's right, exactly." ”
The old Taoist priest asked: "Dare to ask the donor, what is the matter with Yu Chengmo?"
Chi Zhongtian saw that the old Taoist priest asked questions again and again, and he was impatient, so he said: "This is not a Taoist question, may I ask if Yu Chengmo is here." ”
The old Taoist priest smiled and said, "The donor is young, but his temper is not very good, as a guest, how can he talk to the master like this?"
Chi Zhongtian saw that although the old Taoist priest had a smile on his face, but his eyes all revealed an evil gaze, at this time, Chi Zhongtian's heart moved, and after looking at the old Taoist priest carefully up and down, he suddenly smiled and said: "I don't know if you are the master of this water purification view?"
The old Taoist priest saw Chi Zhongtian suddenly laughing, and for some reason, he replied, "Exactly." ”
Chi Zhongtian suddenly took a few steps back at this time, and then turned his back to hahadaxiao a few times, then suddenly turned around, pointed at the old Taoist priest and said, "You are not a Taoist priest at all!"
The old Taoist priest was startled by Chi Zhongtian's voice, but he instantly calmed down and said, "Donor, this joke is too big, the old Taoist has been a monk for forty years. Dozens of spring and autumn seasons have been spent in this view of pure water, and the donor said that the old Taoist is not a Taoist priest, but he is really unbelievable. ”
Chi Zhongtian held his hands on his shoulders at this time, his mouth pursed, and he smiled helplessly: "Your Excellency can do martial arts?"
The old Taoist priest smiled and said: "The art of self-defense, the poor Dao still knows a little bit about it. ”
Hearing this, Chi Zhongtian said in a disdainful tone: "Although I am young, I am not ignorant, so your Excellency should not waste your thoughts. ”
The old Taoist priest smiled slightly and said, "What does the donor want to say, please make it clear that the poor Taoist is busy with trivial matters, and he can't spend too much time chatting with the donor." ”
Chi Zhongtian shook his head and sighed: "The world only knows that the young are easy to bully, but they don't know that the clear eyes of the young happen to be the nemesis of you pretenders?"
When the old Taoist priest heard this, his face suddenly pulled, and he said impatiently: "It seems that the donor is not sincere to come here to find someone, as if he is making fun of us?"
Chi Zhongtian said: "Your Excellency's right finger joint is thick, I don't think it's caused by often taking the dust." The handle of the dust whisk is slender and round, and the hand grip is even, there will be no such phenomenon, I see that you seem to be a sign of holding an irregularly shaped sword handle all year round, I don't know if I am right?"
When the old Taoist priest heard this, his eyes flashed, and although he didn't speak, his expression was obviously not very natural.
Seeing that the old Taoist priest did not speak, Chi Zhongtian continued: "The few people behind you must not be Taoist priests, people say that the six roots of monks are pure and do not love mundane things, but how do I think these people are not good-looking?"
The old Taoist priest smiled and said, "You can still look at your face?"
Chi Zhongtian said: "I don't dare to say that I am proficient, but I still understand a little." ”
The old Taoist priest said: "I still have something to do, so I won't accompany the donor to joke here, and accuse and accuse." ”
The old Taoist priest obviously didn't want to say more, so he turned around and was about to return to the Taoist temple.
At this moment, the old Taoist priest who had just turned around and walked a few steps suddenly moved his ears, and then his eyes widened, and then he turned around quickly, swept the dust in his hand, and then heard the crisp sound of "dangchang", several Taoist priests took a closer look, and it turned out that a small iron sword fell to the ground, presumably just swept off.
At this time, the old Taoist priest and his angry tone said to Chi Zhongtian: "Why does the donor hurt people with secret arrows?"
The little iron sword is the hidden weapon shot by Chi Zhongtian, and this small iron sword is the day of Aoshuangxue's accident, Mu Chengsong and Chi Zhongtian picked it up at the place where Aoshuangxue had an accident.
Chi Zhongtian actually can't be sure that these people and Yu Chengmo are in the same group, but Chi Zhongtian judged through some subtle places and feelings, this group of people is definitely not a Taoist, but Chi Zhongtian can't be tempted in his words, this is not that the Taoist priest is not leaky, but Chi Zhongtian's tentative language is not cunning enough to make people show their feet.
Seeing that the old Taoist priest was about to go back, Chi Zhongtian's heart moved, he reached out and touched the small iron sword, and then shot out, Chi Zhongtian's secret weapon kung fu was not very powerful, so it was easy for the other party to see through it.
But this is also Chi Zhongtian's purpose, looking at Lao Dao's action of sweeping away the hidden weapon just now, Chi Zhongtian judged that this person definitely did not know a little about martial arts.
Seeing Chi Zhongtian looking at himself with a smile and not speaking, the old Tao also suddenly woke up, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart, this old Tao still underestimated Chi Zhongtian too much, so he didn't guard against Chi Zhongtian coming to this hand at all, in fact, this kind of tentative trick is really too pediatric, but as the saying goes, no matter how good the hunter is, there are times when the eyes are pecked by geese. Therefore, it is not surprising that this old Tao was careless and fell into the Dao of the Heavens in the Pond.
Lao Dao suddenly smiled at this time: "Little doll, I still underestimate you, in fact, you are not wrong, we are indeed not Taoists, we are just ordered to be stationed here, I didn't want to embarrass you now, but since you have to find death, then you can't complain about us." ”
In fact, Chi Zhongtian did not guess wrong, this Taoist priest is indeed not a real Taoist priest, they are with Yu Chengmo, the old Taoist priest is named Zhu Yunsheng, to be exact, he is Yu Chengmo's subordinate, and he is also the leader in charge of this place, they killed all the Taoist priests here before, and then changed into Taoist clothes and was ordered to garrison here, first expelled a lot of people who came to play and enter the incense, and then gradually there were no outsiders here, they took this place as their own stronghold. Yu Chengmo instructed Zhu Yunsheng last night, saying that someone would come here in three days, and he explained to him like this, although Zhu Yunsheng didn't know who came here, but he was no stranger to the name Chi Zhongtian, this is exactly the person Yu Chengmo emphasized when he explained to them, and Zhu Yunsheng also knew that what Yu Chengmo wanted was in Chi Zhongtian's hands.
Just now, his subordinates reported to him that Chi Zhongtian was coming, and at first he didn't believe it, wondering why he had come before three days. But after coming out to take a look, Zhu Yunsheng was convinced that this person was Chi Zhongtian, although Zhu Yunsheng had never seen Chi Zhongtian's appearance, but he had heard Yu Chengmo describe Chi Zhongtian's appearance. Looking at the age and figure, Zhu Yunsheng compared the appearance of Chi Zhongtian and his impression in his mind, and then Zhu Yunsheng was sure.
Zhu Yunsheng actually wants to take Chi Zhongtian on the spot, if he can do this, then he can vigorously ask for credit in front of Yu Chengmo. However, Yu Chengmo didn't let him do it without permission, so at first Zhu Yunsheng didn't want to expose his identity, he just wanted to quickly blast away Chi Zhongtian, who knew that Chi Zhongtian actually played such a hand for him, originally Zhu Yunsheng wanted to do it to Chi Zhongtian, but he didn't dare to do it because there was no order from above, but he was so calculated by Chi Zhongtian, Zhu Yunsheng was immediately angry, coupled with utilitarianism, how could Zhu Yunsheng still have the leisure to care about what orders or not, at this time, he was already angry, vowing to catch Chi Zhongtian.
Seeing that the Taoist priest had already admitted it himself, Chi Zhongtian was glad that he had tried it, but Chi Zhongtian was not reckless, he actually didn't want to conflict with them now, because Chi Zhongtian was always worried about the safety of Aoshuangxue, for fear that his recklessness would arouse the anger of the other party. So he arched his hand and said: "I don't have any malicious intentions, it's just that I'm not used to seeing people acting in front of me, since Yu Cheng is indifferent, I won't bother, and I will come another day." After saying that, Chi Zhongtian turned around and wanted to leave.
"Wait!" Suddenly, the old Taoist priest stopped Chi Zhongtian.
Chi Zhongtian took a step, turned his head and asked, "What advice does Your Excellency have?"
The old Taoist priest smiled sinisterly, then waved his hand, and several people behind him stood apart, and then said: "Come if you want, leave if you want, make fun of me for a long time, and plot against me, and then you want to pat your ass and leave, little doll, are you too rampant?"
After hearing this, Chi Zhongtian turned around and said in an innocent tone, "I didn't slap my ass." ”
As soon as Chi Zhongtian said this, those Zhu Yunsheng's subordinates couldn't help but laugh out loud.
