Chapter 95 Xuanyin Temple(1/2)
After noon, the weather is hot and the heat in Feixian Valley is also surging.
Wu Qi was enjoying the cool under the shade of the trees and waited for the two Taoist soldiers to return.
We can’t do everything ourselves. We must gradually give Chongyang and Huang Silang the opportunity to grow faster.
Wu Qi pulled out the water capsule plug, raised his head and drank a sip of water.
At this time, it is great to let Li Mi come out and shake the fan.
Unfortunately, Wu Qi dared not take risks.
The Dragon Girl of the Water Shui was eyeing her. She said that everything had happened before, but her niece became Wu Qi's Taoist soldier, which was another matter.
Elder Yan said it well, safety is the first priority when you go out.
A loud voice sounded from the front: "Fellow Taoist, it's hot here, so you might as well follow me to visit the valley to escape the summer heat and cure diseases."
The speaker was a monk wearing a brown cassock. He was about sixty years old, with white eyebrows and kind face.
Wu Qi put down the water bag and asked, "I don't know where the mage comes from?"
"My monk Xuandu comes from Xuanyin Temple, right in the valley."
"Then I'll bother you."
"There are few outsiders in the temple, but fellow Taoists are just a rare guest."
The monk clasped his hands together and slowly led the way in front.
His steps were not fast or slow, his feet spread out, and he was a little staggering when he walked.
Wu Qi walked side by side with him and asked casually: "Master, I heard that this can ascend in the Feixian Valley in the sun. Is there anything wrong with this?"
Xuan Du stepped on the fallen leaves and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist, if it is so easy to ascend to immortality, the three religions do not have to worry about practicing so much."
"This place is just a secular valley. Previously, a group of thieves hid in the valley and deliberately rumored to the outside world that they could fly to the sun."
"Later, many scholars and those who wanted to meet opportunities were ambushed and killed by thieves, but the outside world didn't know."
"Oh? I don't know where that group of thieves are now?"
"They were inspired by the Buddha and have now been ordained in Xuanyin Temple. They eat vegetarian food and chant Buddha to eliminate their sins. As the saying goes, put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot."
Wu Qi also laughed: "If you kill someone and escape into Buddhism, you can eliminate your sins. Wouldn't the world be in chaos?"
“Fellow Taoist said it very well.”
Xuan Du did not refute, but praised the passage: "Xuanyin Temple is just a place where they live temporarily, and they just wait for the government to come and get people. The temple will cooperate with the help of the mansion."
He turned his face: "Is a fellow Taoist a man in the government?"
Wu Qi was calm: "I am indeed a servant of the Yizhou Sishe of Jianyouwei. Otherwise, the mage would not have appeared, right?"
Both of them looked at each other and smiled.
Xuandu walked along the mountain road, bypassed a lengthy path of sheep intestine, and then spiraled up to an ancient temple above the valley.
This ancient temple is made of four mud walls, with thatch on the top, which is quite simple. A black mud Buddha is shaped on the open space outside, making it look like a smile on the flower.
"Fellow Taoist please come in."
Xuan Du gently lifted the curtain of the straw mat and signaled sideways.
Wu Qi glanced at him, and knew what was going on in his mind, and stepped in.
In Xuanyin Temple, more than a dozen monks were chanting scriptures and meditating. They were all wearing brown robes, sitting cross-legged on the ground, their lips twitched, and their expressions were pious.
The only abnormal thing is that the room is a depression full of water. The monks are soaked in water, revealing only the bodies above their chests, as if they are used to it.
The temple is damp and cold, which is in line with the name Xuanyin Temple.
Wu Qi stood at the door and looked at the monk inside: "I wonder which wizard is the host of Xuanyin Temple?"
"It's me." Xuan Du bowed slightly.
Wu Qi looked at him: "Don't the mage think that should I give me an explanation?"
"Of course I want it."
Xuan Du's expression was as usual: "Please listen to my monk's words..."
A loud voice suddenly came from the outdoors: "Honor! The blood is here!"
It is Double Ninth Festival and Yasha.
Wu Qi turned around and waved to them: "It's okay, come here."
Chongyang floated beside Wu Qi, while Yasha had his arms tightened and was ready to draw his sword at any time. The essence of demonic power was also transformed by spiritual energy, but the operation method was different. After Wu Qi's guidance, he could use Jing Zhen Sword.
"Fellow Taoist is the clerk of the Youwei clerk. I think it is to find that group of bandits, and I will come with the monk."
Xuandu was not panicked at all, but led the way to a small door on the side of Xuanyin Temple.
He opened the door and three people walked out.
These three are all male, with fierce faces, strong figures, and carrying swords.
"These are the three thieves in Feixian Valley. They are killing people and robbing people here, and are now chanting Buddha's name to atone for their sins."
Xuan Du said to them: "The official's secretary, Youwei, comes to take you. You must cooperate well. Regardless of life and death, you must practice Buddhism seriously in prison and not neglect it."
The three of them said in unison: "Yes, mage!"
Wu Qi glanced at him and saw that the three men looked dull and had neat movements, and they were obviously ruined by some means.
"I am here, not for these people, but for the mages. Otherwise, it will be difficult to hand in the deal."
"oh?"
Xuan Du suddenly realized: "I forgot something, fellow Taoist wait."
He took out a string of magic money from his sleeve, and a rough number of twenty pieces were in total.
The monk respectfully presented it: "Thank you to do this trip with some slight tribute, but it won't be respectful."
Wu Qi accepted it.
"If you talk about this matter openly, it's easy to deal with it." Wu Qi said with a smile: "A thief ambushed in the valley, causing the entrant to disappear strangely and was rumored to be a flying fairy."
"really."
Xuan Du also smiled and said, "Please take care of fellow Taoists."
"It's easy to care, but..."
Wu Qi weighed the money in his hand: "This number is wrong. When He Taoist and Hu Xiaodao were there, it was not this number."
Xuan Du's face stagnated.
"You are bullying me for a newcomer. Do you not understand the market?" Wu Qi pinched money with a cold face.
"Don't dare, don't dare."
Xuan Du quickly explained: "Mr. Hu came here before, and I also had twenty magic coins."
Wu Qi pressed the hilt of the sword with his hands: "Do you want to try my sword sharp?"
The monk panicked: "This... fellow Taoist should calm down. He gave thirty Dharma money before, because the practitioner had a lot of Dharma money in his bag."
"Now there is only such a little money in Xuanyin Temple, and there is nothing left at all. Every word I say is true. If there is any falsehood, I would be beaten by the sky."
Wu Qixin said, he didn't expect it to be really deceitful.
He lowered his hands and smiled, "So, to be honest, I admire straightforward people the most. Everyone has a sentence, isn't it good? It's easier to get along with each other in the future."
"Yes, yes. I must have said everything."
Wu Qi asked him: "How long have you been here?"
"Two and a half years."
"What's going on with Feixian?"
"That's a little bit of my talented spell. I can suck someone into my mouth as soon as I can suck it, and it seems to rise up in the air."
"So that's it, how are the returns in the past two years?"
Xuan Du was stunned for a moment: "Seven small sect monks, seventy-two ordinary people, and a water monster. The income was meager and all paid tribute to Mr. Hu. I had no choice but to do so, because other disciples in the room turned into spirits and used the soul and flesh to assist the fastest..."
"Are they all your descendants?"
Xuan Du nodded, looking embarrassed: "I am under the command of Guangzhang Ghost Commander. Now Guangzhang Ghost Commander has entered Yinqian Mountain. I will let me form a monk soldier within half a year... I am helpless and have to take risks."
Wu Qi suddenly realized on his face: "It turned out to be Guangzhang Guishen. I think it was for the fight to come to Longhu Mountain in half a year."
He doesn't know this ghost handsome.
However, this Guangzhang Ghost Commander now belongs to Yinqian Mountain and is the direct descendant of Qingcheng Mountain, so the internal relationship is much more complicated.
Seeing Wu Qi's expression, Xuan Du thought he had heard his name and couldn't help but sigh of relief: "That's true. Although mortals are not worth mentioning, the laws of the Tang Dynasty are strict and cannot be taken openly. I will try to be careful and will not cause trouble to fellow Taoists. Please take care of me more, and you will be bound to worship and respect in the future."
"It's easy to say."
Wu Qi nodded: "Please pay attention."
