As the quail fire horse was bombarded by Fudo, the four dead animals hidden in Zhihua Temple were finally wiped out.
At this moment, the "illusion" built by the dead animals also completely collapsed, and everyone in the "second level" returned to the real world.
However, what happened after returning surprised everyone.
I don’t know if you still remember that it was still morning when everyone entered the "Wanfa Hall" in the previous article, but now, when they returned from the illusion to the temple in reality, The sky above our heads was already dark.
Moreover, at this time, there was not a single monk in the Zhihua Temple. Instead, there were officers and soldiers patrolling and standing guard everywhere.
"Don't move anyone"
The first people discovered by the soldiers were Liang Jingshuo, Yan Danzi, Nengming and Rencan, as well as the four men sitting in front of them. Master Nozawa nearby.
Since these few people were very close to the "exit" of the illusion, when the illusion collapsed, they appeared in an open space not far from the temple gate, where there were the most soldiers standing guard. place.
In such a situation as "Where are you soldiers and why are you in this Zhihua Temple?", it is natural for Yan Danzi to intervene.
"Hey, who are you, but you asked me again?" I found that their soldiers also had limited knowledge and did not recognize the appearance of the national master.
Fortunately, a soldier leader came over quickly and recognized Yan Danzi, "Hey, isn't this the Imperial Master? I've found you."
To make a long story short, Yan Danzi chatted with the soldier leader and got an overview of what happened in the real world during this period
It turns out that from the perspective of real people, the national division and the There has been no news since the "Celestial Protector of the Country" entered Zhihua Temple on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. That means no one will be seen alive and no corpse will be seen after the death.
If this thing only lasts for one day It’s only two days, but after five days, these people still can’t even see a shadow. Can the emperor still sit still?
Oh, you guys tell me first , something big is going to happen in the Forbidden City during the Zhongyuan Period, and our country will suffer a great calamity, and we can only rely on you to resolve it. And now we see that the Zhongyuan Period is getting closer day by day, and if you are gone, what should I do if I just sit back and wait for death?
Zhu Zhu was not the kind of person who waited for death, so on the sixth day after the Imperial Master and others disappeared, he finally couldn't bear it any more, sent troops to seal off the temple, arrested all the monks in the temple, and tried to find out who The truth behind the disappearance.
After that, Zhihua Temple became what it is now.
"So what day is it today?" Liang Jingxuan asked quickly after listening to the conversation between the two.
"What day are you still in?" The soldier's voice was even louder, "It's already fifteen now"
"What?" At this time, Yan Danzi and Liang Jingshuo They all exclaimed in unison.
Who would have thought that after they walked around Zhihua Temple, it was already the night of the Ghost Festival when they came out.
"What time is it now?" Liang Jingxuan asked immediately.
"Now" the soldier leader was stunned for a moment, he exchanged a few words with the soldier next to him, and then replied, "It's about the beginning of Haishi."
"That's okay. There's enough time." At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from a few feet away.
Everyone followed the sound and saw Fudozi walking out of the darkness alone. His tone and demeanor when he said this seemed unhurried.
"Senior, you're coming out too." Yan Danzi felt calm as soon as he saw the immobile son coming.
"That's natural." Fudozi said as he walked this way, "Don't panic. Since the time has not come yet, we still have some time. As long as we prepare our horses now, we will drive immediately. We rushed to the imperial city, things may still be turning around."
"Well" Liang Jingxuan thought for a while and said, "Then I will harmonize them."
"I have already. After all, they still have a fate to deal with and have to stay in the temple for a while." Fudozi seemed to have guessed that someone was going to ask this question, so he immediately said, "It doesn't matter, I'll leave them a message until they get out of danger. Later, when you see my letter, you will catch up."
As he spoke, he took out a folded piece of paper from his sleeve, as if he had prepared it a long time ago. of.
"Military Lord, please give this to the other two Heavenly Protector Masters later." Fudozi handed the paper to the soldier leader's hand and said casually, " Both of them are easy to recognize, one has no eyes and the other has no neck.”
When Bingtou took the paper, he looked at the Imperial Master again. After Yan Danzi nodded, he looked at it. He put away the note and said, "Yes, I will take care of it next time."
After they said these words, the soldiers quickly followed Fudo's instructions and prepared their horses, because everyone It was already at the gate, and it only took two minutes to bring a few horses over.
In this way, Fudozi, Yandanzi and Liang Jingshuo rushed to the Forbidden City first.
The two masters, Neng Ming and Ren Can, did not follow. Firstly, these two were exhausted in the confrontation with Jianglou Gou and were at the end of their strength. Secondly, they still had to deal with Master Nengze. They still had to tell the soldiers about the captured monks, and they really had no intention of getting involved with anything else.
The words are divided into two parts. At this time, deep in the temple, near the unguarded farmhouse.
Huang Donglai, Yu Jianli, and Sun Yixie, who was carrying Qin Feng, also returned to the real world with the dozen or so people they rescued.
However, as soon as they came back, before they could relax, they encountered another crisis.
At this moment, in the distant night, Tyrell was seen running away here, carrying Linghu Xiang and Lin Yuancheng, who were seriously injured and unconscious, one on each shoulder.
Behind him, there was a tall strange shadow following him.
Let’s not give in here. The monster that is chasing Tyrell is the "killing" and "lazy" among the seven evils.
Some people may want to ask after seeing this, why are these "two" Seven Evils said to be "one" monster?
It's simple, because they share the same body. In other words, this "laziness" grows on "killing".
On the whole, the main body of this monster is "killing", while "lazy" is like a huge tumor with a face and arms, parasitic on the shoulders and back of "killing".
In the previous document, didn’t the Shenghe say that there was a ghost in Zhihua Temple that was more powerful than him, Shengman and Shengshou combined?
Obviously , he was referring to this "killing", that is, their master uncle, monk Renli.
This benevolent monk is in his fifties this year. He used to be a famous master of Tantric Buddhism in the Western Regions and was known as "Master Jie Qinbo". His martial arts attainments are unparalleled. Today, it can be considered extraordinary.
It is a pity that during the years when he was involved in the world, he was once plotted by his enemies. Although he eventually cut his opponent into pieces, he himself also lost all his skills afterwards. There may not be any problem with his life, but it is impossible to practice martial arts again.
When Jie Qinbo was in his glory days, he was arrogant and domineering. He made many enemies in the Western Regions. He did not dare to go back after his martial arts was abolished, so he simply kept his name anonymous and became a monk again in this big temple in the capital. He hid himself and became the Renli monk.
His enemies never imagined that a master of Tantric Buddhism would join the Central Plains Buddhism, and he was not a martial arts sect at all.
From then on, Renli settled down in Zhihua Temple and established his destiny, until he was bewitched by the dead animal and became a ghost.
As for "lazy", there is not much to say. This person's Buddhist name is Guoxu, and he is an ordinary low-level monk in his 10s and 20s. The reason why he became a ghost is The word is lazy.
Guoxu's ability is also related to this "laziness". Although he himself can be said to be completely powerless and surviving without a host is problematic, he can parasitize others. body, reducing the combat power of others.
For example, let’s take this Renli. Assuming that its combat power was originally ten, after being “parasitized” by the fruit whiskers, it would only have seven.
Someone must be asking here. , then this Renli is wearing Guoshi, is it to stack a debuff on himself to increase the difficulty of the battle and challenge himself?
Of course not.
Renli just regards Guoshi as A kind of "weapon" to use, because the fruit whiskers can teleport and parasitize the opponent through contact.
In fact, Renli was able to severely injure Lin Yuancheng and Linghuxiang with almost no damage, thanks to Guoxu's assistance.
For Renli, carrying the fruit beard only reduces his combat power by 30%. Once he successfully transfers the fruit beard to the enemy in battle, the effect of the fruit beard on ordinary humans will be reduced. The force effect is much more significant, and it is possible to reduce it by 80%.
And once the transfer is completed, Renli will immediately return to 100% strength, that is to say,During most of the battle, this "debuff" was on the enemy. As long as Nili waited until the battle was over to get the fruit back from the enemy, it meant that he had nothing to bear.
Previously in the illusion, before the dead animals were eliminated, Linghu Xiang, Lin Yuancheng and Tyrell, because they were not aware of the parasitic ability of Fruit Beard, encountered the last two evils. They suffered a big loss, but fortunately the illusion was shattered during the battle, creating a gap for them to escape, otherwise the three of them might have fallen there.
Now, when Huang Donglai and others took a look at this scene, they didn't need to say anything. The dozen or so people behind him ran away on their own.
Of course, it is a good thing to run away. This is the real world anyway. If they run out for a while, they should be able to meet the officers and soldiers and be saved. If they really stay here, they will become a burden.
"Brother Sun" A few seconds later, Huang Donglai stared at the approaching monster, drew his sword, and said, "It seems that we have to fight here."
< p> "I said." Before Brother Huang could finish his words, Yu Jianli beside him patted his shoulder and interrupted, "Brother Huang, Brother Sun has already run away with Qin Feng and the people. You Who are you talking to?",
