After saying a word, the figure made a shooting gesture towards the surveillance camera.
As this action was performed, the display instantly returned to the normal screen.
"More than one person"
The old Taoist priest's voice was trembling. He picked up the walkie-talkie on the table and called for help.
When the old Taoist priest was about to speak into the walkie-talkie, Zhuge Zhengqi snatched the walkie-talkie away.
Before the old Taoist priest could understand, the ugly Taoist priest spoke first and said:
"Old Taoist Priest, if you shout now, not only people from Erlang Temple will come.
After the two of us leave, it’s too late for you to call someone over.”
While talking, Zhuge Zhengqi turned around and glanced at me, winking at the pocket where I kept the Sky-breaking Crossbow.
I instantly understood what he meant, and immediately took out the crossbow, and then carefully hid it in my sleeve.
In front of the old Taoist priest, I tried a few more, and with a flick of my sleeve, I was able to throw out the Heaven-breaking Crossbow, which could just hold the trigger position of the crossbow handle.
After several attempts, Zhuge Zhengqi and I walked to the door.
The ugly Taoist priest opened the door fiercely and rushed out first. After seeing nothing unusual, Zhuge Zhengqi turned around and made a safety gesture at me, and I rushed out from the monitoring room. .
Just when we were about to find a place to hide and wait for the cow to come back to pick him up, we heard the voice of the old Taoist priest behind us:
"Don't go that way, that's where Lu Bing took action just now.
Don't go to the right either, that's where the female benefactor takes a bath in the hot spring.
I know a small road that leads to Nantang Hexuan - left, go left and then right. When you see the fork in the road, go left again.
Then I ran straight ahead and saw the Bagua Room leading to the dry area. After walking out of the dry area, there was the electrical machine room on our floor.
The door to the electrical room is locked, and the key is under the fourth flower pot at the door.
There is also a password lock, and the password is the English acronym of Taishang Laojun's grandson, who may be called Li Baotian."
Before the old Taoist priest finished speaking, Zhuge Zhengqi and I had already ran back.
The two of us had a tacit understanding and one of us took the old Taoist priest's arm and ran toward the path he mentioned.
The old Taoist priest directed us all the way, and after twists and turns, we finally followed the back door of the electrical room, picked up three flashlights, and walked into a long and narrow corridor.
Going down the corridor, there is a staircase that can only accommodate one person going up and down.
The stairs were so narrow and steep that it was impossible to go up and down normally. The three of us could only climb down the stairs backwards step by step.
There were electric lights on the stairs originally, but maybe because of the 'earthquake' just now, the lights were damaged, so now I can only use a flashlight to climb all the way down.
The old Taoist priest went down first to lead the way, with Zhuge Zhengqi behind him and me in the middle.
As I climbed down the stairs, I said to the old Taoist priest below:
"Man, if you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have believed that there is such a place in the main altar of Erlang Temple?
Look at how the stairs were built, and those who didn’t know better thought they were for hand-fighting practice.”
The old Taoist priest below laughed dryly and said:
"Donor, do you know anything? Here is a summary of the circuits leading to the entire Erlang Temple.
Not only is it inconvenient to walk, but it is also convenient for climbing up and down and routing cables.
The entire mountain, hundreds of temples, and the lines installed by Taoist temples all run from here.
When the wiring was installed, I was responsible for reception, so I was most familiar with this area.
The money was spent back then, and after so many years, there hasn’t been any major problems with the wires and wiring—ouch.”
Halfway through his words, the old Taoist priest's feet slipped and he almost fell if it weren't for his tight grip with both hands.
The frightened old Taoist priest took a few deep breaths, then looked at the soles of his shoes and said to himself:
"It's so suspenseful.
What’s wrong with these steps? They’re so slippery.”
When the old Taoist priest was speaking, I had already held up the flashlight and looked towards the position at his feet.
I saw the old Taoist priest lifted his left foot, and the bottom of the sole was covered with red blood.
At this time, the old Taoist priest was also stunned. He carefully reached out and touched a little blood, put it under his nose and smelled it.
“It’s really blood”
After confirming that he almost slipped on the blood, the old Taoist priest's breathing became a little rapid.
He held up his flashlight and looked left and right, and unexpectedly discovered that there was a corpse wearing a monk's robe stuffed in the invisible gap of the stairs.
The old Taoist priest was startled. He raised his head and said to Zhuge Zhengqi at the top:
"Junior Brother Zhuge, go back quickly, something is wrong here."
Before he finished speaking, the corpse stuffed into the gap rolled out on its own and landed at the feet of the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist priest was so frightened that he screamed several times.
Zhuge Zhengqi and I shined our flashlights over it, and saw the body lying on its back. It was in its fifties or sixties - it looked exactly like the old Taoist priest who had led us all the way down.
After the old Taoist priest saw the appearance of the dead body, the expression of surprise on his face could not be more exaggerated.
He tremblingly raised his head, glanced at me and Zhuge Zhengqi, and said in a crying tone:
"Why does this damn ghost look so much like me?"
"Man, do you call this likeness? This is called looking in the mirror."
While speaking, I had already thrown out the Sky-breaking Crossbow, pointed the crossbow arrow at the old Taoist priest's head, and continued:
"Either you can prove that you have a twin brother. If you can't prove it, then don't blame me, buddy. I'm so sorry for going to your house.
I'll send you to see him."
The old Taoist priest may have just seen the power of the Sky-breaking Crossbow with his own eyes, and he was so frightened that he screamed and said:
"ah!
Donor - Your Highness, please don’t do this!
Once this goes wrong, it will be easy to lose your life, and you may not even be able to save your soul.
I can prove that this is my Taoist record, and you will know that I am genuine at a glance."
While the old Taoist priest was talking, he reached into his pocket and took out a card that looked like an ID card.
He handed it to me carefully and said:
"Look at what is written above. Feng Tianlu is a poor man.
Don’t believe me, I’ll recite the Taoist registration number below—Maoding Jiashen.”
The old Taoist priest named Feng Tianlu memorized the number perfectly. Before I could say anything, Zhuge Zhengqi said:
"Senior Brother Feng, search this dead body like yours and see what's on him."
Although the old Taoist priest was reluctant, he still untied the corpse's shirt in front of me and Zhuge Zhengqi.
I just unbuttoned my shirt and a Taoist card fell out.
The old Taoist priest picked up the card, glanced at it, and said with a sad face:
"You can't come at me for being a useless old man.
Why are you torturing me?"
You already know what a card is without asking.
I said to him:
"Man, this damn guy who is modeled after you is also called Feng Tianlu, right?
