Chapter 845 Dragon King Temple
Yanshui River, heavy fog, on the small spirit boat.
Shui Yanluo was rowing the boat at the bow, while Xie Liu stood at the stern holding his sword, staring at Mo Hua and the others with a gloomy expression.
Ouyang Feng was healing his wounds, while Hua Qianqian pursed her lips tightly and looked a little worried.
It was an ink painting, with a curious face, looking left and right, as if looking at the scenery on both sides of the river during an outing.
However, it was night and the fog was thick.
There was nothing to see around him.
Mo Hua asked: "Hey, where are we going?"
Xie Liu's forehead jumped.
Mo Hua's relaxed and happy look made him feel angry.
It was as if among this group of people, Shui Yanluo was the boatman, he was the guard holding the sword, and Mo Hua was the young master who was traveling, asking where he wanted to go.
Does this damn brat really know his current situation?
Don't you have any idea?
Xie Liu really wanted to kill him with a sword.
But you can’t kill it yet.
He does need a few hostages, and when he goes to that place, he needs to take a few live people with him in case of emergency.
Xie Liu suppressed the murderous intention in his heart and could only temporarily let the ink paintings dance in front of his eyes.
Seeing that Xie Liu was ignoring him, Mo Hua turned to look at the bow of the ship.
Water Yama is rowing a boat.
Mo Hua stared at Shui Yanluo for a while and said, "You obviously only have one arm, but you can row quite well. Have you often rowed for others before?"
Shui Yanluo took a deep breath and said coldly: "You'd better shut up."
Mo Hua said: "It's so boring here. If you don't talk, won't you feel bored?"
Shui Yanluo was a little confused, how on earth did this little brat survive so long in the world of cultivation?
Ever since he was little, has no one really wanted to kill him?
Shui Yanluo calmed down and continued rowing.
Mo Hua was bored, so he leaned on the edge of the boat, stretched out his hand on the water to see if he could meet any small whitebait, and told himself a little secret.
Ouyang Feng silently looked at the ink paintings and sighed in his heart.
The Taoist heart is firm and persevering, and it is calm in every big event, and it is not chaotic in the face of changes.
Perhaps this is the courage that a person seeking immortality should have.
Three people go together there must be my teacher.
Although Junior Brother Mo is young, he has a lot to learn from him...
Hua Qianqian on the side also had her eyes wandering, secretly looking at the ink paintings, and for some reason she felt a lot more settled.
The group of people drove quietly in the heavy fog.
Only the sound of the ink painting splashing on the water surface with his hands echoed quietly.
I don't know how much time passed, but I still hadn't summoned Little Silver Fish's ink painting. My heart suddenly sank. I looked up and saw a hazy and huge thing looming in the heavy fog in front of me.
A strange aura spread slowly.
"This is……"
Mo Hua's pupils shrank slightly, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Sensing the aura in front of him, Shui Yanluo hesitated for a while, but he thought that the affair of Rouge Boat had been revealed, and a large number of monks from Daotingsi were behind him. This is the place in front of me.
Shui Yanluo gritted his teeth, drove the spirit boat, and continued to move forward.
After a stick of incense, the spirit boat got closer and closer.
The hazy and huge thing in the fog slowly emerged.
It's a big temple.
It is a lonely temple built out of thin air on the water, like a giant water beast.
Mo Hua showed a "shocked" look and asked Shui Yanluo somewhat uneasily:
"What...what is this place? How could such a big temple be built on the water?"
Shui Yanluo sneered.
Little devil, now I know how to be afraid.
Where?
This big temple is a place where you, damn brat, will never come back.
Shui Yanluo thought to himself, still looking indifferent on the surface, "You'll know when you go in."
Then Shuiyan drove the spirit boat and walked all the way to the temple. There is a long staircase in front of the temple, which extends from the temple door to the waterside.
Shui Yanluo jumped up the steps and looked back at Mo Hua and the others.
Mo Hua didn't move.
Xie Liuben pointed the tip of his sword at him and ordered: "Go up honestly."
"Just go up...Uncle Gu's men are defeated. He can't defeat the golden elixir, but he is quite good at bullying the foundation..." Mo Hua muttered.
Xie Liu's face twitched.
Seeing that he was about to get angry, Mo Hua immediately jumped onto the shore.
Ouyang Feng and Hua Qianqian naturally followed behind Mo Hua.
Finally, it was Xie Liu. He tied up the spirit boat and climbed up the steps.
Then Shui Yanluo was in front, and Xie Liu, the golden elixir, was behind, "holding" the three people in Mo Hua, and walked along the long steps towards the interior of the magnificent temple.
When he walked to the temple, Mo Hua looked up and saw the red walls and golden tiles that had gone through countless storms. There was a large plaque hanging on the eaves of the high door.
On the large plaque, the handwriting is simple and clear, and three large characters are engraved:
Dragon King Temple.
Dragon King...
The ink painting looks shocking.
He only heard that there were many mythical beasts in the world, such as true dragons and true phoenixes, unicorns to ward off evil spirits, the four saints and the four evils, etc.
But he only regarded these as monastic rumors passed down from ancient times. So far, he has never seen them with his own eyes.
But now, there is a "Dragon King Temple" in front of us.
Even if it wasn't a real dragon, but just a river dragon, it would probably be something serious.
While Mo Hua was deep in thought, Shui Yanluo looked around and frowned, "Where are the people guarding the temple?"
Xie Liang released his consciousness and his eyes condensed, "Transferred?"
Shui Yanluo shook his head slightly, "Unlikely... This is an important place, how can it be unguarded?"
Xie Liu nodded slightly.
Shui Yanluo looked at the temple door again, his eyes darkened slightly, "I always feel that this temple seems to be different from before. The yin and evil spirits are stronger..."
Xie Liu sensed it, but he didn't practice pupil skills and knew nothing about the soul. He didn't feel anything unusual, so he frowned and said: "Now that it's over, let's go in and have a look. It's foggy outside the temple, so we can't stay long. "
"Yeah." Shui Yanluo nodded.
He took out a fish bone token, cut his finger, dripped blood on the token, and then embedded the token into the mouth of the bronze statue of a monster in front of the temple. He bent down and said respectfully: "Servant is here." This is an offering to the Lord."
There was no movement at the temple gate.
Shui Yanluo didn't dare to make any move.
Xie Liu also held his breath and concentrated.
Only the ink painting looked at the temple door expectantly.
After a while, the voice that seemed to be Shui Yanluo reached somewhere and received a response.
Outside the temple gate, blood flashed on the fish bone token.
The bronze statue of the water demon with the fish bones in its mouth trembled, and the eyes of the bronze statue emitted an eerie green light. Then with a dull sound of "bang", the ancient gate of the Dragon King Temple slowly opened.
Shui Yanluo then slowly stood up straight, and after looking at each other with Xie Liu, he said to Mo Hua and the others: "Go in..."
"However, I would like to advise you." Shui Yanluo looked at Mo Hua with a bad look, "Don't be clever, otherwise, I would rather not have that thing, and it will kill you."
"Hmm," Mo Hua said perfunctorily.
He didn't believe that Shui Yanluo would not want the box.
Shui Yanluo's abilities, especially the techniques of turning evil spirits and the Blood Hell Eye Technique, all rely on the Water Prison Forbidden Box to cultivate.
Without the confinement box, he would not be able to make any progress in his abilities in this life.
What's more, this box is a secret secret from the head of the Water Prison Sect. There are probably other good things in it, but it can't be opened for the time being.
It’s strange that Shui Yanluo is willing to give up...
Mo Hua said silently in his heart.
Then Shui Yanluo took the lead and walked towards the Dragon King Temple.
Mo Hua followed, but before crossing the threshold, he hesitated.
Hidden in the palm of his sleeve, he held a secret copper coin.
Mo Hua wanted to calculate the good and bad luck of this trip.
But he had a hunch in his heart that he must not calculate it. As long as he calculated it, it would be perceived by others and it would cause trouble.
Mo Hua rubbed the copper coins, restrained the urge to calculate, put the coins away, and slowly stepped across the threshold of the Dragon King Temple.
In this way, the group walked into the depths of the Dragon King Temple.
After a while, blood appeared in the thick fog.
The door of the Dragon King Temple slowly closed, like a huge monster closing its bloody mouth...
…
On the rouge boat.
The battle has basically been settled.
The monks on the rouge boat, whether they were children of aristocratic families or sects, were suddenly shocked by the ink painting at the spring night.
Then the sea of fire spread, and when he fled in a hurry, he encountered the monks from Daotingsi again, and there was almost no resistance left.
Daotingsi will arrest those who are stubborn and will not show mercy.
At this time, we are basically dealing with the aftermath.
But there is one person who is an exception, that is Ye Hong. He was brought to Gu Changhuai and Xia Diansi by Daotingsi's people.
Ye Hong sent a letter and said: "A young master came here on my boat. Before leaving, he gave me this letter. He said that he met the Daoting Division for interrogation and handed this letter over to me. Giving it to a Diansi named Gu can help clarify the misunderstanding and save some trouble."
Dianji named Gu...
Xia Diansi glanced at Gu Changhuai.
Gu Changhuai looked calm, took the letter, glanced at it, and raised his eyebrows.
The letter was indeed written in ink. It simply said: "Uncle Gu, this man's name is Ye Hong. He is Senior Sister Ye Jin's father. He is not a bad person."
Seeing that Xia Diansi looked a little unhappy, Gu Changhuai showed her the letter again. After Xia Diansi read it, he nodded, pondered for a moment and said to Ye Hong: "I know about this, but... ...Although you don't know the inside story of Yanzhi Zhou and are not involved in the activities inside, there is indeed one ship in Yanzhi Zhou that belongs to you. You still have to follow us to Daotingsi to explain the whole story and record a confession. , just press the spiritual contract and follow the rules."
Ye Hong breathed a sigh of relief, cupped his hands and said:
"It's natural."
"Okay, you go down first." Xia Diansi said.
"Yes," Ye Hong bowed his hands, but looked a little hesitant, and asked in a low voice, "I don't know where that young master is now..."
The rouge boat exploded and filled the air with fire. Ye Hong searched for a long time, but still couldn't find Mo Hua, and he couldn't help but feel worried.
He didn't know that Mo Hua was responsible for the explosion, so he was worried that Mo Hua would be affected.
Gu Changhuai said: "You don't have to worry, he should be fine."
With his shrewd ink painting, it would be strange if the formation he set up by himself exploded.
"Yes." Ye Hong saluted.
He is only at the peak of foundation building and comes from a third-grade family. When facing Gu Changhuai, the Daoting Si Diansi in the Golden Core realm, he is naturally respectful.
Ye Hong turned around and left, but when he walked to the door, he bumped into someone and was startled.
"Xiao Zhisi?"
Xiao Tianquan saw something strange in his eyes when he saw Ye Hong, but he quickly covered it up and instead nodded and said, "Elder Ye."
When Gu Changhuai saw this, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Do you know each other?"
Ye Hong said: "Our Ye family is a third-grade family in Yanshui City. Xiao Zhisi once stayed in Yanshui City for some time due to official duties. By chance, he met Ye several times and developed some friendship. "
Xiao Tianquan also raised his hand and said: "I was at Ye's house before. Thank you Elder Ye for the hospitality, but..."
Xiao Tianquan's eyes flashed and he asked, "Elder Ye, why are you here?"
"This... it's hard to say..." Ye Hong sighed, seeing that this was not the time to speak, he said, "Mr. Xiao is busy with business, so I won't bother you anymore. If I have the opportunity, I will continue to serve as a landlord." , give Mr. Xiao a good treat."
Xiao Tianquan cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Elder Ye."
The relationship between the two seems to be pretty good.
When Gu Changhuai saw this, he didn't care.
The monks of Daotingsi have their respective duties on the surface, but privately, they inevitably have some personal relationships.
After Ye Hong left, Xiao Tianquan reported:
"Xia Diansi and Gu Diansi have all been taken care of."
"The fire was extinguished, and all the monks who fell into the water were saved. Those who could not be saved died in the mouth of the water monster."
"Those who were injured by the formation were also treated with elixirs. Together with the others, they were tied up with spirit-binding chains and kept on Daotingsi's ship. After they returned, their identities were verified and they were released."
"Some key figures have also been arrested one by one and recorded."
"But, Shui Yanluo is missing..."
Xiao Tianquan's eyes were a little solemn.
While talking, another person came outside the door.
This man was wearing the robe of a Taoist official, with a strong aura and strong steps. He was also a golden elixir monk, but his eyes were slightly narrowed and his face was smiling.
This person is Xiao Diansi.
Before Mo Hua, he was nicknamed "Smiling Tiger".
Xiao Diansi entered the room, briefly greeted Gu Changhuai and Xia Diansi, and said: "I have inquired and investigated, and there is a golden elixir on this ship."
"This Jindan cultivator, whose surname is Xie Mingliu, was previously an inner disciple of Guishui Sect. He has quite a lot of qualifications. After a few more years, he will be promoted to an 'elder'."
"But he is very close to Duan Jinmen. He was previously involved in a case related to Duan Jinmen's direct relationship."
"This case is neither big nor small, but it is still a fault to some extent and has brought shame to Guishui Sect. Therefore, Xie Liu was expelled from the sect."
"But I didn't expect that after he was expelled from the sect, he would still do these dirty jobs behind the scenes."
"Guishuimen is really... the sect is unfortunate..."
Xiao Diansi narrowed his eyes and sighed.
Gu Changhuai's expression was a little strange.
He knew in his heart that Xie Liu might be doing dirty work, but this dirty work belonged to Guishuimen. To be honest, Guishuimen was even dirtier.
But since we are all Tonji, we must still say something for the sake of publicity.
"This Xie Liu seems to have escaped..."
Xiao Diansi continued, "I tortured several people and got some clues from their mouths."
"According to them, an unknown party secretly set up a formation in Rouge Zhou, and then suddenly exploded and the fire spread. Xie Liu, who was in the Jindan realm, and the wanted 'Shui Yama', held three young monks hostage and went to Went deep into the thick fog..."
Gu Changhuai frowned, "Holding..."
He glanced at Xia Diansi. The two looked at each other with serious expressions.
"Xie Liu must be brought to justice, and Shui Yanluo can't let him escape anymore. Let's do this. Gu Diansi and I will chase him. I'll ask Xiao Diansi to help deal with the aftermath of Yanzhi Zhou." Xia Diansi said.
"Xia Diansi's move is very good, but..." Xiao Diansi squinted his eyes and couldn't see his emotions, but his tone revealed a bit of worry:
"I'm afraid it won't be safe for the two of you to go... Xie Liu has a bad behavior, and Shui Yanluo has a cunning character, so it's not easy to deal with him."
"What's more, they were desperate and fled deep into the fog, which shows that there is probably a shelter for evil heretics deep in the fog. It is not impossible that other evil cultivators of golden elixirs are hiding inside..."
Xiao Diansi said in a blink of an eye, "Of course, Xia Diansi and Gu Diansi have profound cultivation, wisdom and courage. They are also leaders in the talented Daoting Division. Naturally, they are not afraid of these evil heretics."
"But because of this, if you two encounter an accident or make any mistakes, it will definitely be a great loss to our Qianxue Dao Tingsi. Please be careful and think twice before you act..."
Xiao Diansi has been immersed in Daotingsi for many years, and among other things, his speaking skills are evident.
Xia Diansi said: "Then what Xiao Diansi should do according to what he sees?"
Xiao Diansi muttered: "In that case, why not... I go with you two. The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and the three golden elixirs are shot at the same time. Even though Xie Liu and Shui Yanluo have three heads and six arms, they are determined to overthrow the rabbit. It’s too bad…”
Xia Diansi was a little worried, "But, this Rouge Zhou..."
Xiao Diansi said: "The matter of Rouge Boat has been settled. Daotingsi will send someone to take over later. Everything after that will be trivial and we don't need to worry about it."
"On the other hand, it's Xie Liu's side. Time is urgent. If we don't catch up, I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up."
Xia Diansi thought for a moment and nodded slowly.
In this case, it is indeed better for all three people to go.
What's more, Xia Diansi also knew in his heart that although Xiao Diansi kept his attitude very low, in terms of position, everyone was Diansi. On the surface, she was the leader because of the Xia family's face.
In fact, she has no power to give orders to other officers.
Xiao Diansi's low profile had already given him enough face, and it was not easy for her to refuse.
"Okay, let's go together and arrest Xie Liu and Shui Yanluo together," Xia Diansi said.
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Tianquan also held up his hands and said:
"Xia Diansi, my subordinate is not very talented, and I also want to go together."
"You?" Xia Diansi was slightly startled.
Xiao Tianquan said righteously:
"Shui Yamaluo is a man who has committed extremely heinous crimes, and everyone will punish him. Last time I let him run away, and my subordinates had trouble sleeping and eating. This time he will be brought to justice, and I ask the Dian Si to do it."
Xia Diansi glanced at Xiao Tianquan, thought about what her uncle had told her before she came, and nodded: "Okay, you can go too."
"Yes." Xiao Tianquan handed over his hand.
Gu Changhuai only thought that Xiao Tianquan was eager to make contributions and did not take it seriously.
On the contrary, Xiao Diansi on the side looked at Xiao Tianquan with a hint of indifference and a hint of hostility in his eyes.
Afterwards, the Daoting Secretary prepared a spirit boat.
Gu Changhuai, Xia Diansi, Xiao Diansi and Xiao Tianquan from the Xiao family rode the spirit boat together and sailed deep into the thick fog.
Xiao Diansi, who kept squinting as he walked, looked back at Rouge Boat, which was in a mess, with blood and fire mixed together, and had not yet burned out, and his eyes opened slightly.
His eyes reflected the sea of blood.
A trace of evil spirit circulates in it.
…
In the Dragon King Temple.
Mo Hua and his group were still walking towards the temple.
The temple is very spacious, with high walls and cornices, and is very grand, but along the way, it is empty and dead, with no movement at all.
Shui Yanluo and Xie Liu felt something was wrong as they walked.
Even though it was an ink painting, I felt a little uneasy in my heart.
After walking to a large hall, Shui Yanluo hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and knocked on the door, saying:
"Mr. Wu, I'm here with the 'offerings'."
There was no response from the door.
"Mr. Wu?"
Shui Yanluo frowned.
"Where are the people in the temple? Where have they gone?"
"Mr. Wu, are you there?"
"Mr. Wu..."
Shui Yanluo's voice became lower and lower, and his mood became more and more solemn.
At this moment, there was a dripping sound. Shui Yanluo's expression froze, and he suddenly took a few steps back and left the place.
At the same time, something fell from the rafters and fell to the ground.
Everyone took a closer look.
It was a bloody corpse.
