The meaning of this sentence is that when you cheat someone, you may feel guilty the first time, but it will be a matter of course the second time.
Therefore, when the three people took Niba and knocked on the door of Shuiyue Temple, they felt extremely calm.
Even Feng Chong, who was still coy before, took the initiative to speak to the two of them before leaving the city gate. For example, if the real person refused, how should he persuade them?
Li Changan didn't think so much. He was really unhappy. How could he force the monster into it?
But seeing no response from the mountain gate, he simply looked around and looked back at where he came from.
Shuiyue Temple is hidden in a hill outside Xiaoshui City.
At this time, in front of the mountain gate, the view is widened and the moonlight is bright.
What you see from afar.
Nearby is a lush green forest, with a secluded stone road hidden in it, winding down the mountain. Farther away, the river slowly flows eastward, reflecting the shimmering moonlight, and Xiaoshui City sleeps beside it. There are only a few lights in the city, and there are large areas.
The vines are clustered on the wall, at the end of the alley, by the bridge...
The colors of the flowers float in the night sky.
Quiet and peaceful.
What's even better is that if Xiaoshui is compared to the canvas and the wisteria is compared to the brush, the colors painted are unexpectedly even and harmonious, as if they were drawn by a master.
The Taoist priest was fascinated by what he saw.
Guanli finally responded.
The door opened halfway, and a little Taoist boy leaned out holding a lantern.
"Ah, it's Brother Feng Dao who's back. Did your trip go smoothly?"
As he said that, he turned his head and saw Li Changan and Bo Ziyu who were accompanying him.
"There is also a Taoist priest and a chaplain. It's cold at night, so please come in quickly."
The three of them have been exposed to the cold wind for half the night, how can they still be polite?
I hurriedly squeezed in and squeezed in. Once the door was closed, it felt much warmer.
"Wuyou, where is the real person?"
As soon as he entered the door, Feng Chong hurriedly called to the Taoist boy.
"I have something important to discuss."
"Master is meditating and chanting sutras."
Unexpectedly, the Taoist boy shook the braid on his head.
"I told you not to see any outsiders tonight."
Doesn't that mean we have to wait until tomorrow?
The three of them couldn't wait to find out what happened to the parasitic monster right now. Besides, the seal was not very reliable, so how could they have the time to wait?
Bo Ziyu had already stepped up. His eyes were as red as a rabbit due to anxiety and staying up late, and he was staring blankly, which was really scary.
"Little Taoist priest, we are really in a hurry!"
"Emergency?"
The little Taoist boy was very courageous and was not frightened by the arrest. Instead, he smiled and asked:
"Are you distributing yellow charms in the city..." He pointed to the basket on Li Changan's back, "or is it the monster in the basket?"
Several people looked at each other, quite embarrassed.
After all, it's one thing to be shameless, but it's another thing to be exposed in person.
"The real person knows..."
Feng Chong was a little embarrassed for a moment.
The Taoist boy smiled slyly and waved to the three of them.
"My master has already given the order. All you three have to do is follow me."
…………
The night is already dark, and the view is silent.
The Taoist boy held a lantern and led the three people to a corridor.
The lights were dim, and the light and shadow were flowing, making the murals on the wall feel "ready to move".
Li Changan has been paying attention to these murals for a long time.
The content is simple, consisting of ferocious or grotesque figures, and the brushstrokes are far from sophisticated, and the colors are somewhat dull and gray due to the constant exposure to wind and rain.
However, the painting is so wide that it covers almost every wall in the temple. Even when Li Changan was outside the mountain gate, he saw such murals all over the outer walls.
This is a big project, but it is not difficult to do if you give up time, energy, and money. What is difficult is... the Taoist priest looked carefully and was surprised to find that there was no repetition of the characters in the painting!
"Taoist Priest Xuanxiao is looking at this wall painting?"
Perhaps out of boredom while traveling, the young and out-of-touch Bo Ziyu saw the Taoist priest looking at the painting wall all the time, and couldn't help but strike up a conversation.
"Yes." The Taoist priest nodded and said some good words. "The thinking is exquisite, the painting is magnificent, and it is quite extraordinary."
"Taoist Priest has a good eye! The murals in Shuiyue Temple are of great origin."
Seeing that the Taoist priest had started the conversation, Bo Ziyu happily opened up the conversation.
"It is said that when the Shuiyue Temple was first built, the walls were only painted with no murals. Until the end of the previous dynasty, when the world was in chaos, the Demon King of the Southern Demon Kingdom also took advantage of the collapse of humanity and invaded the human world with hundreds of thousands of demons.
They burned, killed, and plundered all the way to our Xiaoshui territory, and also occupied the Shuiyue Temple as a demon nest. Unexpectedly, the Shuiyue Temple was the dojo appointed by the third concubine. This angered Mrs. Linshui and came down to earth to execute her.
Kill the demon king and seal the remaining demons in this mural."
The more he talked, the more interested he became.
"Taoist Priest looks at the demons in this mural with his eyes closed?"
Li Changan nodded.
This was also a point that puzzled him. Looking at it all the way, the characters in the painting never opened their eyes.
"This is because the demon is sealed. If the portrait opens its eyes!"
"What's wrong?"
"It's just that the demon is out of trouble and wants to jump out to eat people!"
When Bo Ziyu talked about it, he was beaming with excitement and spitting. Unfortunately, the Taoist priest heard this and just said "oh" indifferently. But the little Taoist boy who led the way laughed out loud.
"How can it be so mysterious?"
He led the way and explained.
"These murals were painted by painters who spent several years. They are not eye-opening, just to avoid scaring the pilgrims."
"Besides, the ones above are not monsters or ghosts, but soldiers and horses protecting the law."
"Five rampages?"
"Is it possible that he is still a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general?"
Li Changan finally understood.
Whenever a Taoist priest sets up an altar to practice, there is always a saying of inviting a certain god and sending a certain general. In fact, relying on the master's sect's dharma, he invites thugs to assist in boxing. These "thugs" are collectively called the guardian soldiers and horses, and they are usually divided into upper and lower classes.
Two altars. The soldiers and horses on the upper altar are heavenly soldiers and generals, who cannot be used by non-Xuanmen authentic sects. The soldiers and horses on the lower altar are the demons and ghosts that have been subdued. They are also called five rampant soldiers and horses, similar to the Yuanhuang Sect, Lushan Sect, Meishan Sect and so on.
The Dharma of the confluence of Tao is used more often. (It’s just a setting, please don’t take it seriously)
This Qingping Master is obviously from the Lushan Sect. Considering this, it is not too strange that the walls are covered with strange five rampants.
After this, Bo Ziyu finally shut up, and the scene became quiet again, with only the footsteps of everyone echoing in the corridor.
After a while.
The group of people finally arrived at their destination, which was a storage room half dug into the mountain in the backyard.
…
"This gentleman is right. Our Taoist temple was built in the late years of the previous dynasty. This storage room was used for storing food and water and temporary refuge, so it is quite a big place. But in recent years, the world has been peaceful and peaceful, and it has been left idle.
.”
Several people lit torches and illuminated this rather spacious stone room.
"My master has previously ordered us to clean this place a little to prepare it for the use of the three of us."
After hearing this, Li Changan thanked him and thought to himself.
It seems that this Master Qingping is not as ignorant of magic as she said. Otherwise, where would this prophetic vision come from?
But now is not the time to study these in detail.
Several people looked at each other. This place was secluded and secluded, and it was really useful for imprisoning monsters and studying parasitic monsters.
No more delays.
Under the command of Feng Chong, they quickly put up yellow talismans, placed Dharma flags, hung swords and bronze mirrors, and set up Dharma formations.
Then I picked a thick desk and cleaned it. Then I took out the mud bag from the basket on my back and put it on the desk. I lit candles around it.
After everything is ready.
Then he silently drove away the Taoist boy who was peeping at the door, waiting to see the excitement.
