Chapter 1598: Second Visit to Merit Hall
“But isn’t this too unbelievable?” The fat man looked at Jiang Cheng in confusion. He did not deny Jiang Cheng’s idea, but this matter was full of weirdness, and he still Hope to see more direct evidence.
But the next second, the fat man suddenly opened his eyes wide. Jiang Cheng raised his left hand. His left hand was obviously in the wrong position because the bones inside were broken.
"I was like this as soon as I woke up. The injury was the same as last night."
Looking at Jiang Cheng's broken left hand, the fat man felt a chill from head to toe at this moment. Last night When Jiang Cheng was running away, he fell because he was distracted and broke his left hand. He remembered it very clearly. But strangely, at dawn, Jiang Cheng's broken left hand was restored to its original state.
It’s really like this...
Day and night are two separate worlds.
Putting down his hands, Jiang Cheng asked Fatty to pull some pieces of cloth for him and make strips to simply fix the broken bones. "Tonight we will go to Gongde Hall to find Monk Huicong. I think he is just It is the key to connecting the two worlds of day and night. "
In the afternoon, monk Huicong was kidnapped by monk Huide. According to them, he would still practice merit tonight.
Jiang Cheng’s words are not difficult to understand. Fatty will understand after thinking about it. The precepts temple in the day world and the night world are completely two extremes. During the day, the temple is solemn with morning bells and evening drums, but at night, the precepts are completely destroyed and ugly, but The only one who agreed was the monk Huicong and his devout heart that refused to practice "merit".
"You're right, Monk Hui Cong is the key. I'm wondering if we should try to rescue Monk Hui Cong."
The fat man felt uncomfortable thinking about Monk Hui Cong's miserable appearance last night. Perhaps there is only such a devout monk.
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed, "Your idea is right, but it is not easy to do this. Just take it one step at a time."
The fat man also knows this. Due to the difficulty of the matter, those flower monks were very strict with Hui Cong, and there were at least dozens of monks inside. Those monks were all very powerful, and he and the doctor were no match for him in a real fight.
Jiang Cheng said while packing his things: "Remember, the main purpose tonight is not to save people, but to find a way to connect with another group of people. I think they will definitely go tonight." After a pause, Jiang Cheng tightened the bandage on his wrist with his teeth, "If they are willing to help, and Guan Erye disrupts the situation, we may not have a chance to take advantage of the chaos."
After getting ready, the two set out under the cover of night. It was still the same outside, with no moon, but the cold bluestone inside the temple was covered with a layer of cold light.
But this time, they did not take the same route to Gongde Hall last night, but changed direction and went to the west wing.
Jiang Cheng wanted to see what that team was doing, or at least know their movements. After all, it didn’t matter whether they cooperated or not, but there were two lurking crimsons among those people who were watching eagerly.
From the news received from Tang Qisheng, those crimsons could not wait to attack them.
Passing through a courtyard door, they arrived not far from the west wing. There was no candlelight inside, and it was pitch black. The night was very quiet, and people who were quiet felt panicked.
"Wait for me here, I'll call the door."
As soon as Jiang Cheng finished speaking, the fat man swallowed his mouth and said in a suppressed voice: "What are you calling the door for? This place doesn't look right. Let's touch it." Go over and poke a hole in the window paper and take a look."
Jiang Cheng shook his head and walked towards the door openly without explaining anything or hiding his footsteps.
If there is anyone in this temple who is trustworthy, then it must be the other people in this team except Deep Infrared. Since we are here to discuss cooperation, we must show sincerity and be sneaky. It's a bad thing. Moreover, these people are not simple. There are some practitioners among them. Once a conflict arises, they can't explain it clearly.
"Old man, are you asleep?" Jiang Cheng stopped outside the door and spoke to the closed door.
The fat man's heart was in his throat. He kept looking back at the path he had taken, planning to run away with the doctor if something happened.
But after waiting for half a minute, there was still no sound inside. Jiang Chengzhong asked again, but the result was still the same.
Sensing that something was wrong, Jiang Cheng stepped back and picked up a dead branch from the ground, and then used the branch to push the door. With just one click, the seemingly closed door "squeaked--" opened.
No lock?
In the cold light outside, Jiang Cheng saw that there was no one in the room. The quilts on the two beds were messy, and there were bedrolls on the floor.
After seeing Jiang Cheng waving his hand, the fat man followed him carefully. There was no candlelight in the room, and the room was filled with a stale atmosphere. There was still unfinished food on the old Eight Immortals table. Jiang Cheng walked to the bed and put his hand under the quilt. , frowned after a moment, "It's already cold, people have been gone for a long time."
"Did they also go to the Merit Hall?" The fat man recalled the scene of corruption last night, and his heart was filled with excitement. Had a bad feeling.
“Let’s go and have a look too.”
The road to Gongde Hall is a bit far. At night, the Precepts Temple is like a pool of stagnant water. From time to time, there is a gust of wind, which is not too cold. But what it brought was an indescribable and terrifying smell, and the fat man couldn't help but tighten his clothes.
Gradually, the stagnant water was broken. They heard a familiar voice when they were still a long way away from the Gongde Hall.
The fat man from Jiangcheng quickened his pace, and they came to the courtyard where the Gongde Hall was located and lurked down. At this moment, they could vaguely see the light coming from the Gongde Hall. It was obvious that the monks were drinking wine from large bowls and eating large pieces of meat, and they were very happy.
But at this time, the gate of the courtyard where the Gongde Hall is located is open, and there is no one on duty nearby. The fat man swallowed his saliva and whispered: "This is wrong. These monks will not hide behind the door and wait for us. Right?”
Jiang Cheng observed for a while , although he found no problem, he still chose to change the road, "Let's find a place to jump in."
Those elusive monks gave him a very bad impression, especially today during the day they were alerting others. This temple The monks here may not be unprepared.
Finding a hiding place, the two of them jumped in one after the other. But shortly after landing, before they could figure out the situation nearby, the fat man's ears twitched, and he suddenly heard a sharp sound. The sound of unsheathing.
"Don't move!"
The next second, several figures flashed out from behind the nearby trees. One of them was the middle-aged man I had seen before. The middle-aged man held a knife in one hand and looked wary.
"Haha, we meet again, little friend Jiang."
The kind-hearted old man also walked out from behind the tree. The old man looked at Fatty Jiangcheng up and down, and nodded thoughtfully. He said in a faint tone: "It seems that little friend Jiang was frightened by the same nightmare as us last night." (End of Chapter)
