Chapter 138 Daomen
The sky was getting dark, and several black figures appeared on the eaves of the wall outside Tiandu City.
They stood like crows, quietly watching the pedestrians coming and going in the city.
A man in black robes flashed through the crowd and jumped onto the city wall. Some people noticed the commotion alertly and raised their heads.
The strange thing is that there is nothing at the top of the city. Occasionally, some people look up at the city wall, and their eyes only see the endless sky, with only a trace of redness like a sea of blood coming from a distance.
"You're back?" Among the crows there was a man in dark blue clothes. He looked at the man in black who had just turned over with a pair of snake eyes and said lazily.
And this man in black is the Thousand-Armed Buddha of Rakshasa Hall, and those standing on the wall are the Green Snake and Black Wing clan.
The Thousand-Armed Buddha, to be precise, Dapu just rolled his eyes at the Green Snake. He wore a black hat on his head to hide his bald head.
Indeed, a monk wearing black clothes walking in this city is too conspicuous.
"From your tone, do you hope I won't come back?" He sneered.
Although Thousand-Armed Buddha is from Rakshasa Hall, he does not like monsters. After all, he was once a disciple of Buddhism.
"No, no, you are one of the Four Great Protectors, who dares to touch you!" The green snake's slender tongue roamed inadvertently in its mouth, looking very respectful on the surface.
But among everyone present, the most powerful one is the Green Snake, and the Thousand-Armed Buddha is just a mysterious immortal.
"It's good that you know. The hall master has sent us to make some noise in Tiandu City this time. Don't get in the way. When the hall master finds out, I won't be able to bear his anger." Thousand-Handed Buddha said seriously.
"If you want to turn Tiandu City upside down, just kill some people casually. There's no need to go to such trouble." said the leader of the Black Wing Clan, Vulture.
"Yes, yes, yes, brother, I, I, I, I am still hungry!" The fat crow also echoed, touching his belly as if it was cooing.
"Are you fools? You are killing people in Tiandu City. Do you want to alarm the person in the palace? Our purpose this time is just to thwart the disciples of the Tianshan Sect who came to Tiandu City to investigate and deal with what Bai Ruoli left behind.
It's just a mess, do you want the whole world to know that monsters are rampant?" Thousand-Armed Buddha was so angry at these brainless guys that he wanted to kick them off the city wall.
"Okay, okay, everything you said is right." Green Snake responded impatiently. It obviously no longer wanted to dwell on this matter.
Whether it kills someone or not, it just wants to find the murderer of its younger brother.
"Tonight's auction gathered all the prominent figures in Tiandu City. I put the most precious holy beads on it just to attract more people to pay attention to him. When the time comes, the holy beads will disappear under their noses. These rich people
There will definitely be panic. All you have to do is sow the demon seeds on these people, and they will definitely let these demon seeds take root, sprout, and spread. By then, everyone in the capital will be suspicious and jealous of each other.
, the hall master’s plan is more than half completed.” The Thousand-Armed Buddha became more and more excited as he spoke.
"Okay, okay, what a good plan!" Green Snake continued to reply absentmindedly.
"Yes, yes, but don't forget the agreement between us. As long as we encounter danger, we can choose to retreat on our own." Vulture said gloomily, there was an agreement between them.
If Rakshasa Hall's actions will affect their safety, they can cancel the action at any time.
"Okay." Thousand-Armed Buddha narrowed his eyes and nodded slowly.
What a bunch of cowards, he thought to himself.
The Thousand-Armed Buddha turned around and jumped off the city wall. It was almost midnight, and the setting sun was slowly sinking. Two dark blue curtains were slowly hanging on the originally red sky. It was time for them to leave.
Bai's Gambling House.
The green snake looked at the Tianji Pavilion in the distance, and then at the wall where the Thousand-Armed Buddha had left. Its originally lazy snake eyes slowly became sharper.
For some reason, its vigilant sixth sense made it feel that tonight's plan was definitely not that easy.
"Back to the Pavilion Master, there are informants in Tiandu City reporting that there are several strange visitors on the city wall. Judging from the aura on their bodies..."
On the twelfth floor of Tianji Pavilion, a disciple wearing dark blue robes was standing respectfully, reporting the information they had collected.
Their secret techniques may be able to be hidden from ordinary people, but they absolutely cannot be hidden from the disciples of Tianji Pavilion, so their every move is visible to them.
"It's a demon, right?" The pavilion master was calm and didn't even put down the book in his hand.
"Yes, Pavilion Master, they are all demons. The barrier they received from the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons was broken a few days ago. It seems to be true." The disciple was still respectful and polite.
"Of course it is true. When will my Tianji Pavilion be wrong?" The voice of the Pavilion Master sounded quite proud.
"It's just that the strength of this group of demons is not low, and they seem to have an agenda. I don't know how we should deal with it." The disciple lowered his head and waited for the pavilion master's instructions.
"Deal with it? Why should we deal with it? Are they coming to attack our Tianji Pavilion?" The pavilion master's eyebrows were raised behind the scroll.
His words stunned the disciple, who had been practicing for more than a year.
"How...how is it possible? These monsters want to attack Tianji Pavilion, unless they don't want to live anymore. Judging from their appearance, their target seems to be Bai's Gambling House. There is an auction there tonight, and I heard that wealthy businessmen are gathering there.
"For a moment, he couldn't keep up with the cabinet master's thinking.
"Isn't that okay? They are not here to cause trouble for our Tianji Pavilion. Why should we go to find trouble for them?" His voice sounded a bit rogue.
"But... they are demons!" The disciple wanted to retort, but after thinking about it, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it.
"What's wrong with the demons? Are they hindering our Tianji Pavilion's business?" When it came to business, the pavilion master put down the book in his hand with a righteous look on his face.
The disciple hurriedly lowered his head. He knew that he could not remember the face of the pavilion master, so it was better not to look at him.
What's more, when you see his deep eyes, you will feel
panic.
"Or are those wealthy businessmen from Bai's Gambling House paying us to kill monsters?" The pavilion master glared and added again, the implication being that he would not do anything without money.
"No, no." The disciple couldn't keep up with the clear thinking of the pavilion master and replied hastily. Now he just wants to escape quickly from this pervert who only knows how to make money.
"Isn't this the end? Tianji Pavilion raises you to help Tianji Pavilion make money, not to do charity. Do you understand?" the pavilion master said loudly, emphasizing the words "understand" again.
"Ming, I understand." The disciple was timid.
"It's good that you understand. You can go down first. If it's not about making money, don't disturb my reading." The master of the pavilion nodded, showing a cowardly expression.
The disciple no longer knew how he came out of the attic. He suddenly wondered whether joining Tianji Pavilion was a clear decision.
Could the master of Tianji Pavilion, who usually seems so enigmatic, open his mouth and say that he cannot live without money?
After the door was gently closed, the master of the pavilion raised his head again and looked at the beam above his head, looking thoughtful, as if he was thinking about something big.
"Wait a minute, if they kill all these wealthy businessmen, wouldn't there be fewer people coming to do business with me in Tianji Pavilion?" A look of fear suddenly appeared on his face, and he quickly stretched out his hand and counted.
"Wu Nian, don't say I won't help you, this matter is all left to you, don't let me down!" Suddenly a strange smile appeared on his face.
That smile was like a satisfied smile after eating for free without paying.
Tiandu, Taomen.
This mansion, which has been in decline for who knows how long, will prosper again. However, the scars on the beams, walls and columns still cannot hide the traces of the heavy damage it suffered in the past.
More than ten years ago, the Taoist sect was expelled from Tiandu because of being implicated by General Gu and his family. The whole family was ransacked. Although the Gu family was pardoned within a few days and the Taoist sect was cleared of their crimes, they did not inherit their original inheritance.
With their tenacious perseverance and solid foundation, the family business and Taoist sect returned to Tiandu again in just ten years and became the overlord of Tiandu City.
The current head of the Taoist sect, Dao Quan, is Xuanxian. Although his cultivation level is not high, he is already quite good in the family of immortal cultivators.
"Why haven't you seen Chuan'er in the past few days?" Dao Quan was having a meal. There were three wives and two children sitting at the dining table. They were only 7 or 8 years old, but their zhenqi had already reached Yuan Dynasty.
Infancy!
"Back to my lord, Chuan'er said a few days ago that he would study hard in his room, so Housekeeper Liu is taking care of him these days." A woman in a floral red robe put down the rice bowl she was holding and said seriously.
"Nonsense, I believe you when you say he got into a fight with someone else. When have you ever seen this silly boy read a book?" After hearing this, Dao Quan threw the rice bowl in his hand on the table, and the rice splashed everywhere.
Come on, it's on the table.
Each one is plump and round, as white as jade.
"Where did he go and why did he hide it from me?" Dao Quan looked at the wives and concubines on the dining table.
He had long felt strange that although Daochuan often went out to play on weekdays, he would definitely come back in two or three days, but today was already the fifth day, but he was still missing, and even Butler Liu was missing.
The three wives and concubines hurriedly put down the bowls and chopsticks in their hands, all with their heads hanging down, not daring to eat anymore. Seeing their father getting angry, the two children also put down the bowls and chopsticks in their hands, but still stared straight at the plate.
Exquisite food, mouth watering.
"Why don't you tell me quickly? Where did he go? Do you really want me to get angry?" Dao Quan frowned and tapped the table with his fingers.
The wide mahogany square table couldn't bear his fingers, and it squeaked and seemed to be crumbling.
"Old Master, the eldest son, he and Mr. Liu went to the Tianshan sect together." Finally, a concubine couldn't bear Dao Quan's anger and couldn't help but burst out.
Chapter completed!
