The close friends in the boudoir were the first to speak, and they lowered their voices, quite cautiously.
"Didn't I tell you already?" Chen Jiao looked proud.
Lu Le's face was very ugly and he said: "That's ridiculous! After all, monks and Taoists are outsiders. They don't know the important affairs of the court. They quarrel over a clan and they can't get on the stage!"
When Chen Jiao heard this, she was not happy, but before she could speak, the people around her spoke one after another.
"The Marquis of Linru County is respected by Buddhism and Taoism, which shows that he has real abilities! Isn't this what you just said?"
"I am jealous of the literary talent of the monarch, and I still write articles to criticize it, which is humiliating myself!"
"You are still talking nonsense, you are really shameless!"
"you!"
Lu Le's face turned green and red. He couldn't stay any longer. He hid his face and ran away amidst everyone's pointing fingers!
Chen Jiao was stunned.
"People's hearts change too quickly. Which one is the true meaning?"
The Shen family's female envoy also blushed slightly, thinking that she had doubts just now, but her vision was too narrow.
"The Buddhist and Taoist families respect that monarch so much, he must be a dragon or a phoenix among men!"
Thinking like this, she looked towards the gate again, but instead of expecting to come to Ru County, she saw a familiar figure.
"Isn't that the young master? Next to him should be King An Cheng!"
King An Cheng and Shen Zunli were walking slowly, flanked by six guards. There were not many of them, but they were all full of energy, their temples were bulging high, and their eyes were filled with light!
Wherever they stood, people around them started to retreat.
King Ancheng walked along, listening to the monks and Taoists talking, and smiled and said to Shen Zunli: "Fang Qing is really respected, but it seems that he hasn't come here yet."
Shen Zunli forced a smile and whispered: "He has the support of both Buddhism and Taoism. If Hou An becomes worried and stops coming..."
"Hou Andu will definitely come!" King Ancheng put away his smile, his expression became more solemn, "I just got news that the ox cart that came out of Hou Andu's mansion was opened in front of the palace gate, and there was no one inside!
"
"Empty?" Shen Zunli was horrified, "That's why the suspicion array is established!"
"That's right," King An Cheng nodded. "With Hou Andu's temperament, if the emperor calls him to discuss matters, he will not go if he doesn't go. Why bring an empty car over? This is probably delaying time. He
There must be some secrets in that mansion, and I have ordered the monks who are watching over there to find out!"
Shen Zunli's expression changed again and he said: "If he really has any conspiracy, what happened today..."
King An Cheng narrowed his eyes, but his tone became calm: "You have to shoot the arrow when it is on the string, and you can't hesitate. And just in case, I have arrangements." He took a deep look at Shen Zunli, "I have already sent someone to go
In the palace, please come, brother emperor!"
"Your Majesty!?" Shen Zunli looked surprised.
"It's not easy for the emperor brother to attack Hou Andu, so how can he, Hou Andu, attack the emperor brother?" King Ancheng pointed out, "These two people are connected by fate!"
Shen Zunli took a deep breath, looked around, and then said: "In case something happens..."
"Then Hou Andu's luck has declined, isn't it?"
King An Cheng said as he walked towards the oncoming Yu Ji.
Shen Zunli felt a chill all over his body.
"The king is here, please invite..." When Yu Ji saw King An Cheng coming, he was cheerful on the surface but wary in his heart. He still remembered that it was King An Cheng who wanted to hold a banquet in the first place for the Marquis of Linru County who was possessed by an evil spirit.
Zhang Mu.
But when he saw the tense situation between the Buddhist and Taoist families, he had a headache again, and he couldn't help but ask the monk Fa Nan with his eyes.
what is going on?
But in front of all the Taoists, how could Monk Fa Nan reveal the Buddhist plan? He could only smile bitterly.
Fortunately, the arrival of King Ancheng provided a buffer between the Buddhist and Taoist families, and the solemn atmosphere subsided a lot.
"You are all eminent monks and masters..." King Ancheng came to the pavilion by the pool. When he saw the Buddhist and Taoist people, he smiled slightly and was about to speak.
But Qi Baijin waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty, don't be anxious, just look at the sky."
Heaven?
King An Cheng was stunned.
"Your Majesty, be careful!" Shen Zunli stepped out from the crowd, stood in front of King Ancheng, and looked towards the sky!
"how?"
King An Cheng frowned. Although he was not panicked, he realized something and looked up.
Whoosh!
In the sky, a cold light flashed, and a figure moved from far to near. It was a man in hunting robes, stepping on a flying sword and falling down!
His clothes were torn and stained with dark blood!
Everyone in the garden was in an uproar, and there were discussions everywhere.
Immortal?
Auspicious?
assassin?
Qi Baijin narrowed his eyes, counted on his fingers, and said with a smile: "So that's it. The key today is still the Duke of Guiyang."
"One of our own!" King An Cheng saw the face of the visitor clearly and his heart trembled.
The person coming is none other than Lu Shouyi!
At this moment, he was in a mess, with blood stains on the corners of his mouth, and his hair was messed up. When he saw King An Cheng, he said urgently: "Your Majesty, please leave quickly. Also, the Qingliu Meeting must stop and evacuate the crowd quickly. , don’t gather here!”
"Don't be anxious, make it clear." King An Cheng took a deep breath, "Is it related to Hou Andu?"
Upon hearing this name, Yu Ji, who came over, was stunned.
The people from the Buddhist and Taoist families did not see anything unusual, and a few even nodded slightly.
"That's right! Hou An didn't know where he got the evil magic. Now his body and soul are one, and his life is the same. He may have achieved immortality!"
"impossible!"
Qi Baijin, Yuan Hui and others finally had a slight change in their expressions.
Fashan of Longhua Temple added: "How can the Duke of Guiyang live forever when he serves in the court and is suppressed by the underworld?"
Lu Shou shook his head and said anxiously: "How can I know? Please retreat quickly. When I was investigating with my colleagues, I was discovered by him. Before I could see him, he was severely injured. My colleague was seriously injured and could not survive. I saw Hou An is about to leave, so he will inform you first..."
boom!
Before he could finish his words, the ground suddenly trembled, and then a hoarse sound came from the gate——
"No one can leave. Chen Xu, aren't you plotting against me and trying to kill me? If you have the ability, just come and get it!"
Words are like thunder, exploding everywhere.
The ordinary people in the garden felt their heads explode, and they covered their heads and screamed!
Immediately afterwards, a strong wind with a fishy smell blew overwhelmingly, covering the entire Qingliu Garden!
The needles of pine and willow leaves by the roadside and the pond are actually somewhat blackened and curled!
Then, a person walked into the garden. He stepped forward. Every time he took a step, the ground shook!
Seeing such a scene, many people screamed directly!
Those in the pavilions by the pool were fine. Although they were frightened, they had obviously heard about it and moved closer to the Buddhist and Taoist families.
Others were already in a mess, and some even fainted on the spot!
Suddenly, people were panicked, running around in all directions, and the chaos was extreme!
But when someone rushed to the door, they suddenly discovered that there was an invisible curtain blocking the way!
"can not go out!"
"It's also on the wall, you can't get it out!"
The curtain is invisible and the pain is severe!
Screams and screams came and went, becoming more and more chaotic.
Even Ding Long was startled and confused, and whispered: "It's different from the previous plan. Why did the Lord come directly? Isn't he going to confront the Buddhists?"
As he expected, one of the monks already laughed and said: "Since the poor monks are here, how can they let others do evil?"
It is the strict watcher of the mirror.
As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped out from the crowd. With a sweep of his cassock, the Buddha's light filled the air. Petals flew in the air, and then shot out like arrows as if he had received an order. In the blink of an eye, the invisible curtain on the wall in front of the door was covered.
Pierce them all.
Click!
Invisible cracks expanded, and the curtain was about to shatter, but a burst of purple energy fell and it was closed again.
"Why is the purple energy of the Dynasty mixed with it?"
The expressions of Yuan Hui and other monks changed slightly.
"My destiny is connected with the emperor. I have a long-lasting vision. My martial arts will is like a rainbow. I can tame a little purple energy for my use!"
Amidst the arrogant words, the fierce man walked over step by step.
He was a foot tall, with messy hair flying around his head. His body was bulging with flesh and blood, glowing black and purple. His right arm was covered with burn marks, and blue veins were like tree roots, wrapping around his body, but his face was
It was as red as blood, and there were dense scales on both cheeks.
Anyone who sees him like this will sigh...
Not human-like!
Wherever he passed, the crowds fled and screamed in surprise, and some people were so frightened that they looked like crazy!
"Hou Andu?"
When King Ancheng saw the person coming, he took a few steps back and entered the monk's path with a solemn expression.
The bruised man opened his mouth and smiled ferociously, saying: "It's me, I'm here to take your lives!"
"Arrogant!" Qi Baijin from the Taoist sect snorted coldly. He flicked his long sleeve and a piece of talisman flew out. He held it in his hand and threw it out.
But a gloomy voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears——
"This is a matter of the dynasty. How can you, the masters of this world, interfere with it? Are you not afraid of death and tribulation from the underworld and punishment from heaven? It's better to watch obediently with us!"
After the words fell, pitch black feathers flew around the Buddhist and Taoist people.
"Not good! Create a demon!"
.
.
"Something happened in Qingliu Garden!"
Chen Cuo also felt something, and immediately stopped and sighed.
He followed all the way and could always see the back of the old beggar, but it was difficult to catch up.
"That senior's cultivation must be far better than mine, but if you don't want to meet, why do you want to show up this time?"
As he was thinking about it, his heart suddenly moved. When he lowered his head and looked down, he saw sixteen characters on the stone slab at his feet——
"First complete the five elements, then look for the immortal slough. Don't believe when you encounter darkness, and walk alone when encountering the path."
