The reason why Huajiao thought of Yunxu was because he accidentally entered the Netherworld Formation that night in the Fierce Prison, and the demon Fu Dou in the formation mentioned Yunxu.
He said: "I want to go to the Puyi tribe to steal the dream. If I steal the dream, I can go to the Yunxu."
At that time, Huajiao didn't know the meaning of the wet dream and Yunxu, but at this time, she was almost certain that Yunxu was the Yinxu recorded in the classics, the place where the ancient evil monster was killed. Therefore, the disaster fight
Then I tried every means to get to Yunxu, so much so that I still thought about it after I died.
Moreover, the pronunciations of "Yun" and "Yin" are so similar that it is indeed easy to misunderstand Yunxu as Yinxu.
Therefore, Nuwa and the gods may have killed some evil demons, but not all of them. Some of them were just driven to Yunxu. Now, after thousands of years, some of them have escaped.
The river breeze blew from the window, making the bells on the eaves of Wangjiang Tower jingle.
Yu Yuan's words from that day suddenly rang in Huajiao's ears.
"You demon masters, you have killed so many demons over the past thousands of years. Just wait, your life will not be easy from now on."
Huajiao couldn't help but feel a chill on his back.
Yu Taiqing stood by the window and was not surprised when Huajiao mentioned Yunxu. It seemed that he had heard of Yunxu a long time ago.
There was a long silence in the room.
Hua Jiao was the first to break the silent air and asked: "What Yu Dujian means is that the recent evil demon in Lan'an City is an ancient evil demon from Yunxu?"
Yu Taiqing nodded: "The transformed snake is an ancient demon. Although I don't know why the alliance leader wants to find it. But I can be sure that if the demon is captured this time, it may be able to help the alliance leader find the transformed snake."
The corner of the painting looked at Yu Taiqing's silhouette through the screen, smiled faintly, and said in an old-fashioned way: "In this way, we, the Banyue Alliance, agree to help you Tianshu Division this time. How to do it, Yu Dujian can tell you.
"

Buddha Bathing Festival.
Early in the morning, Hua Jiao got up to wash up and change her clothes. Zheng Xin and Zheng Heng had already hitched the carriage and were ready to take her to Jingci Temple.
Aunt Lin and Xue Xiu didn't want Hua Jiao to go out. Seeing that they couldn't persuade her, they also wanted to follow them to burn incense, but Hua Jiao stopped them.
According to Yu Taiqing, the monster will definitely appear today, and Aunt Lin and the others must not be allowed to take risks with it.
According to Yu Taiqing's instructions, Huajiao had already sent out all the people from the Moon Alliance, leaving only Zhou Ling. Zhou Ling was now the demon master of the Tianshu Division, and he had already followed Yu Taiqing's instructions.
He rushed over with instructions to protect Huajiao and go out.
After tidying up the painting corner, he walked quickly to the front yard. When he was almost in front of the gate, he saw Pei Ruji sitting on the wooden bench on the flower stand, talking to Uncle Chen.
He was not wearing a military uniform, only a dark black light robe. Seeing Huajiao approaching, he stood up and greeted: "Sister Ah Jiao, I happen to be off duty today, so I will accompany you to Jingci Temple."
Hua Jiao was a little surprised: "I heard that the Queen Mother and Princess Jing'an will also go to Jingci Temple today. Aren't you Imperial Guards supposed to be busy? How could you not be on duty? Are you on leave?"
Pei Ruji smiled, raised his sword eyebrows slightly, and a bit of the young general's unruly spirit flashed in his starry eyes: "There are so many people in the Forbidden Army, there are others to protect them."
Having said that, this was a rare opportunity to make a contribution, but he gave it up easily just to accompany her to burn incense.
Huajiao was grateful for his kindness, but she was also a little embarrassed. She had something important to do today, and if Pei Rujian stayed with her, there would be a lot of inconvenience.
She specially brought the clothes and headdress of an old woman in her luggage so that she could go to subdue the demon as Ye Lan, the leader of the Moon Alliance. If Pei Ruji was with her, how would she change her clothes and explain to him why she wanted to pretend to be an old woman.
She also knew that Pei Ruji was worried about her, but she was destined to be unable to accept this feeling.
"Third brother, I'm just going to burn incense and won't stay too much at Jingci Temple. Why do you need to make this trip again? It's rare to have a day off, so you should rest in the mansion."
Before Pei Ruji could say anything, Uncle Chen had already started to help: "My dear lady, it's not peaceful in Lan'an right now. Please let General Pei accompany you."
Huajiao said helplessly: "As long as Zhou Ling, the demon master from Tianshu Division, is with me, nothing will happen to me. But my third brother doesn't know magic, so I'm afraid it will be dangerous if I go."
When Uncle Chen heard this, he couldn't persuade him anymore.
But Pei Ruji was determined: "Sister Ah Jiao knows the danger, so don't go. If you insist on going, I will definitely follow you."
Huajiao saw that he couldn't convince him for a while, so he had to agree to it.
Jingci Temple is located in the northern suburbs of Lang'an City. It takes an hour to drive north after leaving the city gate.
Jingci Temple is the largest temple in Lang'an. Every year, the Queen Mother comes here to worship Buddha and offer incense. Therefore, the temple is always full of incense.
This day is also the Buddha Bathing Festival. There is a Buddha Bathing Ceremony in the temple. Men, women, old and children from Lan'an City come here to take a shower and change clothes early in the morning.
When Huajiao arrived at Jingci Temple, the monks were chanting sutras, and Sanskrit sounds could be heard in the distance. The open space in front of the temple gate was already filled with various carriages and carts.
When Huajiao got off the carriage, he saw that there were stalls set up in front of the temple to do business. Most of them sold items for incense and blessing, such as incense candles, paper horses, etc. Some also sold tea and meals.
Pei Ruji and Zhou Ling accompanied Huajiao as they walked along the stone steps towards the temple gate. At this time, they heard someone calling her from behind.
"Is this Mrs. Jiang in front of me?"
The painting corner stopped and looked back, and saw a young lady wearing a power fence walking quickly along the steps, followed by several guards. She walked closer, lifted the veil of the power fence, and smiled at the painting corner.
, it was actually Cui Lanshu.
She took Huajiao's arm and climbed up the stairs with her.
"Since I met my sister at the Peony Flower Banquet that day, I haven't seen you for many days. How have you been lately? I didn't expect that my sister is actually the daughter of the Zheng Mansion. I don't know where my sister learned her magic. It's really amazing.
"
Huajiao let her help him into the temple gate.
Cui Lanshu leaned close to Huajiao's ear and said: "Tianshu Division has sent four demon masters to protect me. Sister Shangxiang will join me soon. It will be safer this way."
Huajiao glanced back at the guards behind her. They were all wearing the same blue robes. Tianshu Secretary had indeed put on enough pomp this time.
Huajiao raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I can't get it."
So they ordered Pei Ruji and Zhou Ling to wait outside, while she and Cui Lanshu entered the main hall hand in hand.
I saw a huge stone incense burner in the center of the hall, filled with incense sticks, and the smoke filled the entire hall.
Huajiao took out the incense sticks and incense candles prepared by Lin Gu, lit them and worshiped, then put them in the white ashes of the incense burner. When he got up, he saw Cui Lanshu kneeling on the futon devoutly to pray. Huajiao looked around, looking for something convenient for changing clothes.
place.
In order to pretend to be an old woman, she had obtained the consent of an elderly servant in the mansion, Aunt Sun, and took a drop of her blood in advance.
It only takes a while to cast the spell.
