It was getting late at this time, the mountains were quiet, and the sudden ringing of the bell seemed very abrupt.
"who!"
Shouquan's eyes narrowed, the original smile on his face disappeared, his eyes widened with anger, and he asked loudly.
The sound was as loud as thunder.
Before he could finish his words, he ran out of the palace and went straight to the front yard.
In temples, apart from setting the clock in the morning, the morning bell also serves as a warning at other times to warn everyone in the temple that something unexpected will happen.
In the Asura Hall, Yuan Zhen and other disciples were still immersed in the previous joke. Shou Quan ran out and it took him a while to react.
Yuan Zhen, who was sitting in the front row, frowned and jumped out first.
As soon as they arrived in the front yard, they saw Master Shou Zheng and Master Uncle Shou Jie frowning and whispering.
Gaoshan Temple is not a big temple, it only has a few temples and about 20 monks.
Except for Yuan Zhen, a new generation of novice monks, there are only three people of the Shou Zi generation.
There is also a person named Shouhuan, who is responsible for guarding the Sutra Pavilion.
The strongest among the three is Master Shu Shoujie.
He is the most talented person among the previous generations of Gaoshan Temple. He was born with a body of steel and iron, and is most suitable for practicing hard skills. When he was young, he practiced the four-arm heavenly skills in the temple to great perfection, and then went out to travel.
It is rumored that he also visited Huaiping, the holy land of martial arts in Huaizhou.
When he came back a few years later, his skills were unfathomable.
He even killed a giant python that had passed through the Six Fu realm with his bare hands.
He often goes into the mountains in his free time to hunt some rare mountain animals and pick some precious herbs to replenish their health, so he is very respected.
It's just that he is very serious and never smiles, which makes people respect and fear him at the same time.
just now
Yuan Zhen looked at Shou Jie, whose brows were furrowed and anxiety could not be concealed in his brows.
What happened to make my uncle feel so panicked?
"Junior brother, what happened that caused you to ring the morning bell?" Shouzheng was equally solemn and asked in a deep voice, "Is it possible that there are animals wandering outside again?"
Gaoshan Temple is located on the mountainside. Since the beginning of winter, there has been very little food. Therefore, from time to time, hungry mountain beasts will wander outside the temple following the popularity, which makes some of them have to go out to kill them.
"If they are really those beasts, it will be easy to deal with. Even if you can't beat them, you can use some medicine and you'll be fine." Shou Jie frowned and shook his head. Kong Wu swung his powerful arms and moved his muscles.
"I sensed with my secret skills that there are people coming down the mountain, more than one person. At this moment, I am afraid that the person coming is not good."
"Ah?" Shouzheng's expression corrected.
He is naturally familiar with his junior brother. In addition to his hard skills, he also has the inner eye of Shura Taoism and can observe all directions and the four places. This is one of the reasons why Gaoshan Temple can remain stable to this day.
"How many?" he asked subconsciously.
"coming."
But before he could answer, Shoujie's face darkened and he answered.
Bang bang!
This time there was a knock on the door.
"Is anyone here?"
A rough voice.
Before he finished speaking, the red solid wood door suddenly began to shake, and then shattered into sawdust with a crash.
"It seems like it belongs to someone."
Four people walked in from the outside world at once.
The leader's eyebrows and hair are a little yellow, as if he was malnourished, but the muscles in his arms are very developed, his shoulders are broad and his body is strong, and he has something like a fist in his hand, giving him a fierce aura.
As soon as he entered the temple, he looked fiercely at Shou Jie and others, and finally stopped at Shou Jie and Shou Zheng, and suddenly smiled.
"Hey, it's strange that there are a few warriors in this small mountain temple."
With that said, he swaggered into the square in front of the temple.
The three people behind him also showed their faces.
Everyone's clothes are slightly different from those in Nanming County, and they look like outsiders at first glance.
The only similarity is that their breaths are dark and their blood is strong and hot.
They are all masters!
As soon as the four people entered, the expressions of the monks at Gaoshan Temple suddenly became condensed, and the young novice monks even stood up in shock.
"Yuanyang Iron Hand Wang Songtao?"
Shoujie also had a heavy look on his face. He took a step forward and protected everyone behind him. He asked half doubtfully and half certainly.
"I didn't expect that someone here knows me. It seems that I am a fellow martial artist." Wang Song opened his mouth, showing the same yellowed teeth, and his tone was softer,
"In this case, I won't say much. Now please don't move. You and I, follow the four of us brothers into the mountain. If the other little bald heads eat this, I will save your life, otherwise
,hehe."
But before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, the murderous nature contained in the second half of the sentence shocked everyone.
Wang Song clicked on Shouzheng and Shoujie, then turned his hand over, and a black jade bottle appeared in his hand.
The jade bottle is dark and has a red cork, which is obviously poison.
"You want poison? What do you want me to do for you?"
Shoujie looked slightly stern.
He thought of many things in an instant.
From the sudden appearance of Wang Songtao, a strongman who lives in Huaiping County, to the use of poison to coerce the two of them into the mountains, to the recent rumors of Xidian, they are strung together into a thread and directly questioned.
"It's quite clever." Wang Songtao's smile became even brighter.
"You are locals. If you go into the mountains with us to look for opportunities, you will naturally become more powerful.
Of course, don't worry, if the harvest is good, we can even give you a small portion, and the rest of the people will naturally be safe and sound." After saying this, he raised the black bottle in his hand.
Signaling them to come quickly.
"Wang Song...Wang Donor? If you really want to lead the way, you can say it bluntly. You are just forcing me with poison to avoid violating the moral principles of the world.
What's more, Gaoshan Temple is a registered temple in Nanming County. By taking such actions, aren't you afraid of going to sea to capture documents and be wanted by the world?"
Monk Shouzheng showed a kind smile and took two steps forward. He spoke half-advisory and half-warning. He wanted to use his words to defeat the enemy.
Bang!
The next moment, a white light flashed.
Then there was blood splashing, and Shouzheng groaned, and immediately took a few steps back, covering his chest in disbelief.
There was a withered branch that was half-submerged, like a chopstick.
Shouzheng, one of the three great sages of Takayama Temple, was knocked down by a branch that was broken off casually?
Some of the novice monks behind him suddenly lost their defense, dumbfounded and in complete disbelief.
"No need to talk nonsense. The current situation in Yueshan area really needs to be controlled. Haha, even if the damn Liu Ming were alive, he would not be able to control it. The current Yamen."
Wang Songtao clapped his hands and said softly, shaking his head as he spoke.
After saying that, he continued to move forward, walking unscrupulously to a distance of four or five steps from Shoujie.
"The Six Fu State is pretty good, so hurry up now, otherwise it won't be a branch next time, haha."
Wang Songtao smiled.
"It seems that King Benefactor has made up his mind." Shoujie glanced at Yuan Zhen, who looked unhappy, and the other disciples who were frightened.
When he was young, he traveled in Huaiping and heard about this man more than once.
It is said that he had attained the level of a master back then and was a well-deserved great bandit.
Unexpectedly, the two of them had never met each other in Huaiping when they were young, but now they met in Yueshan.
"Donor Wang, as far as I know, unusual movements in the spare time will indeed cause a lot of earthquakes to appear in the spiritual field, but in the vast mountains, the chance of this is extremely small."
"Now that the donor comes directly to our temple, is it possible that he already has a goal?" He said with a wry smile.
"It seems that he is a smart person." Wang Songtao smiled, "Unfortunately, what I hate most is smart people!"
"?" Keep the commandments.
When a crisis arises in my heart, I subconsciously cross my arms to resist.
Bang!
In an instant, an arm that seemed to suddenly lengthen hit him like a hammer.
What followed was an overwhelming and irresistible force, like a mountain torrent, which directly crushed his proud body and majestic strength.
boom!
The next moment, he was punched and flew away, hitting the incense burner in the center of the square, causing the incense ashes that had not been cleaned up in time to spray all over the floor.
"Uncle Master!"
At this moment, Yuan Zhen, who was standing by him, finally couldn't bear it any longer. He found an opportunity, jumped out like a cheetah, pounced, and punched Wang Songtao in the chest like lightning.
Unfortunately, the difference in strength was too big. Before he could get close, a thin man behind Wang Songtao came first and slapped him on the chest.
Bang!
He was hit several meters away by a palm, blood sprayed all over the ground, and his face was like gold paper.
With his strength in the Qi and Blood Realm, even under a sneak attack, he couldn't even block a casual blow.
"Don't blame me." Wang Songtao stood with his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "Nowadays, an unknown Taoist divines the exact time and place of the spiritual field in the earthquake, and divides it to the world.
Today, an adult happened to get a map and ordered us to clear out everyone around us. Even I can't afford to offend that person, so I can only apologize."
"Huh?" Suddenly a voice muttered.
Then, the sound of trampling footsteps suddenly sounded.
Everything seems to appear out of thin air.
A tall man with an indifferent expression, a pale face, a dark mark between his eyebrows, and a black monk's robe walked into the temple and walked slowly to the center of the square.
"Gaoshan Temple? The current abbot is Shouguan, that's right." Lin Mo held a map with portraits on it.
He glanced at the fat monk who had a pale face and didn't dare to pull out the branch from his chest, nodded, and then walked to Wang Songtao.
"You are not from Takayama Temple, right?"
"What do you mean? Are you from this high mountain temple too?" Wang Songtao glanced at Lin Mo, frowned slightly, and subconsciously started to work hard.
"We are members of the Fire Alliance. The leader of the alliance is Taoist disciple of the Qianshan Sect. The flames are soaring to the sky, Situ Kong. We are now following his order to recruit people from Gaoshan Temple to solve the disaster of Xidian."
The yellow hair on Wang Songtao's head moved, his eyes looked at Lin Mo, and for some reason he subconsciously pointed out the person behind him, as if to warn:
"That's all. Fellow Taoist, do you have any other insights?"
‘Tao Zi of Qianshan Sect’ Lin Mo whispered in his heart and remained silent.
He knew that many masters would definitely come to this free time, but he didn't expect that the Qianshan Sect, one of the two high mountains in Huaizhou, would also send people, and the one they sent was Daozi.
You must know that although Daozi is still a disciple, his status and strength in large sects such as Qianshan and Lingtai may even be higher than ordinary elders and deacons.
And this Situ Kong seems familiar to him
What's even more outrageous is that some expert divination master came here this time, calculated the recovery time of the leisure point, the location of the earthquake in the spiritual field, and gave it to the world. How can he be so amazing?
"Do you know who this hexagram master is?" Lin Mo asked directly as his mind moved.
"Unknown, after the formation was calculated, it was given to several predestined people on the spot. Those few all got great opportunities, and some even discovered three-inch bodhi roots and other divine objects.
Later, he drew many maps, said that his duties were completed, and left." Wang Songtao said in a deep voice, with a hint of envy in his words.
"Duty, leaving?"
Lin Mo frowned.
Is there really an old man in the world who gives away treasures for free? He feels more and more that there is a ghost!
"What is Situ Kong's strength?"
Lin Mo asked in a deep voice.
If the opponent is not very strong, he wants to use it as bait to see who the person behind the scenes is!
"Master Situ?" Wang Songtao was startled, a little confused.
"Master Situ is a Taoist disciple of the Qianshan Sect. He and Yujian Shentu Youwu are the two most beautiful peaks of the Qianshan Sect. He once fought against the Grand Master for 300 rounds without losing in the Grandmaster realm.
Now, are you afraid?"
As he spoke, he crossed his arms over his chest, raised the corners of his mouth, and looked at Lin Mo with pity.
Bang!
In an instant, the vision suddenly went dark, and the violent howling sound sounded like a woman whimpering.
A giant hand as big as a millstone came directly over and hit his face. Then, with a numb and stinging sensation, an immeasurable force, like a landslide, pressed down directly.
The knees suddenly went weak.
boom!
Wang Songtao knelt down directly, his hands subconsciously supporting the ground, and his limbs sunk into the stone slab in an irregular shape.
His face came into contact with the ground, and the falling stones scratched deep and shallow scars. Blood splashed everywhere, dyeing the yellow hair on his head red.
"Um?!"
The three people behind him were startled, and their expressions changed drastically. They did not expect that the situation would suddenly turn around, but they were all experienced people, and they suddenly showed cruel expressions.
"kill!"
The ear-splitting killing sound made people's ears ring with the blessing of mind power.
Among the three people, one punched Lin Mo's head from the front, and the other reached behind Lin Mo with strange steps, took out a dagger stained with green meaning, and inserted it into his waist and eye.
The last person was faster and directly separated his hands and blasted Lin Mo's ears and temples.
The sudden bursts of energy collided with each other, causing the air in the entire square to agitate, and even blasted out concentric circles, rolling up sand and dust and expanding outward.
The three of them were all half-step masters. Almost instantly, in less than half a breath, each attack would fall on Lin Mo.
At this moment, Lin Mo raised his eyelids slightly.
Tsk tsk!!
The sound of machines roaring.
A chain of flesh and blood as black as ink instantly ejected from his back. Under the terrifying energy and blood, it showed violent explosive power. In an instant, it pounced on the three people like three black pythons.
Puff puff!
The three of them froze instantly, their chests were occupied by black chains, and they were penetrated directly.
The whole person was in the air, and the ferocious expression on his face had not disappeared.
call!
The three chains pulled the three people and smashed them to the ground, and then they were retracted at a faster speed with blood.
Lin Mo's expression did not change, he just bent down and lifted up the only grandmaster among the four, the yellow-haired boy.
The yellow-haired boy Wang Songtao's face was covered with blood at this time. For some reason, he couldn't mobilize his energy at all. His whole body was limp and weak, and he also had a dizzy and sick feeling in his heart.
"Who are you...who dare to attack us and other members of the Fire Alliance? Do you know what the outcome will be?!"
He suppressed his discomfort, looked at Lin Mo with a pale face, and spoke incoherently.
Lin Mo glanced at the monk from Gaoshan Temple behind him.
The young faces were equally frightened and pale.
He turned back and looked at Wang Songtao calmly: "What will happen? If you, the Fire Alliance, dare to take action against my people, what kind of consequences will there be?"
Thank you to the two big brothers [Looking for the Light in the Night] and [Qingkong] for the reward. Thank you very much. Thank you [Brother Shi Hao] for the reward again. I wish you good health and wealth in the Year of the Tiger. Good night, fire.
