Chapter 212 The Thirteen-stick Monk remains loyal!
"I can't go with you."
Li Taiping looked at the red-robed monk who felt so oppressive, with an unusually firm expression.
"Oh, it's not up to you."
The red-robed monk smiled lightly and said, "The purpose of the Thirteen-stick Monk's existence is to protect the Li family! This poor monk will never let the princess get hurt again."
In Zen state, everyone knows the legendary story of "Thirteen stick monks assisting the Zen king".
I think back then, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Zenzhou was originally Li Shizong's eldest brother. However, Li Shizong was extremely talented, versatile in both civil and military affairs, was generous to others, and loved the people like a son. He gradually stood out, and even achieved great success, so he was jealous of his elder brother and tried to assassinate him.
Drop him.
Li Shizong fled all the way and met thirteen monks!
It was with the help of the thirteen stick monks that he broke out of the siege and changed his fate against the will of heaven.
Later, Li Shizong launched the Xuanwumen Revolution, got rid of his eldest brother, and ascended the throne of Zen King.
Since then, the Thirteen Stick Monks have become Li Shizong's most trusted force.
Even though Li Shizong passed away many years ago and the Li family lost power, the Thirteen Stick Monks remained loyal.
It is precisely for this reason that the Thirteen Stick Monks could not be tolerated by Zen King Wu Yutian. He regarded them as traitors and wanted to get rid of them quickly.
"Princess, I'm offended."
The red-robed monk stretched out his hand to grab Li Taiping. At this moment, a plain voice suddenly came.
"Why did you lie?"
The red-robed monk's expression changed, he raised his head suddenly, and saw a figure slowly falling down into a sea of fire.
But when the figure descended, the sea of fire beneath his feet was extinguished, and a layer of frost formed on the scorched deck.
"You are..."
The red-robed monk narrowed his eyes slightly and saw clearly the young face of the man, with a young man carrying him behind him.
It's Wei An and Jin Xiaobao!
When Li Taiping saw this, he was very happy. He quickly ran to Wei An and saluted: "Senior, please help me."
Wei An said calmly: "My agreement with you is that if you are in danger, I will take action. But this red-robed monk has no intention of harming you."
Li Taiping continued: "If I are kidnapped by him, I will become a defector and will be hunted endlessly for the rest of my life. This red-robed monk is trying to harm me."
Wei An sideways glanced at the red-robed monk, curled his lips and said, "Monk, can you hear me clearly? I really don't want to go with you."
The red-robed monk was indifferent and only said: "The authorities confuse onlookers to see clearly. The princess is in danger, but she doesn't know it. The poor monk can only take her out of the sea of suffering and let her see clearly."
Wei An understood, rolled up his sleeves and said, "It seems like we can't make sense, so let's see the real chapter."
The red-robed monk looked at Wei An carefully, and slowly opened his clasped hands, with deep red flames beating in his palms.
Upon seeing this, Li Taiping quickly reminded: "He possesses the 'Red Lotus Bloodline' and practices the Buddhist bloodline technique 'Secret Book of Karmic Fire', which can release the terrifying red lotus karmic fire, which has the power to destroy the heaven and the earth."
Wei An nodded.
In fact, as soon as he got close to the red-robed monk, he knew that this man had fire blood and was definitely a master at playing with fire.
Therefore, Wei An turned over his hand and took out the slaughtering knife, and chose the "Six Arts of the Ice King" to deal with it.
"Six Secrets of the Ice King", Wei An also found an ice attribute talent to complete the simulation. Now he has mastered the sixth secret "Returning on a Snowy Night".
This sword technique is very terrifying, and the artistic conception it presents comes from the Ice King's later years.
The Ice King at that time was a lonely old man who had seen through the world, lived a wonderful life, buried his wife, and sent away his children and grandchildren.
The Ice King once had everything, but lost everything as time went by.
A passer-by in this world returns home on a snowy night!
The Ice King finally understood the meaning of life.
It turns out that you and I are both travelers in the endless windy and snowy night, just a wave in the long river of time. We have walked and passed by, and in the end we all return to dust and dust to dust.
Wei An took a deep breath and waved the butcher's knife.
A monstrous chill rose into the sky!
All the flames are extinguished in the blink of an eye!
The merchant ship that was almost destroyed by the fire suddenly turned into an ice sculpture.
The red-robed monk's expression changed dramatically, he suddenly retreated away, plunged into the surging river, and sank to the bottom.
"..."
Wei An's knife-wielding hand paused in mid-air, with a look of admiration on his face.
The red-robed monk immediately sensed the terror of Wei An's sword, and decisively chose to escape, which can be said to be extremely clever.
But at this scene, Li Taiping was completely shocked.
To be honest, that red-robed monk is very powerful. He just advanced to the first level a few years ago, and he is unstoppable with his red lotus karma fire.
Wu Shensi encircled and suppressed the red-robed monks three times, but all failed, and he was defeated repeatedly.
She never expected that a strange young master she met by chance could drive away a red-robed monk with a single blow. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, no one would believe it if she told him.
Now Li Taiping is very sure that Wei An is definitely not young, he is an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years.
Later, Wei An carried Jin Xiaobao on his back, took Li Taiping with him, left the ice sculpture merchant ship, and landed on the shore.
They bought horses from nearby towns and rode on.
Two days later, a large number of royal guards arrived, found Li Taiping, and took her away.
Wei An declined Li Taiping's invitation, took Jin Xiaobao, boarded another merchant ship, and continued upstream.
Day by day passes...
The merchant ship kept moving forward on the Shule River and finally arrived at the ancient city of Mogao.
Wei An first settled Jin Xiaobao in a hidden mountain village more than a hundred miles away, and then went to the ancient city of Mogao alone.
The strong wind blows and the yellow sand rolls in.
Looking from a distance, the tall and towering city walls are covered with mottled spots, filled with the vicissitudes of time.
Wei An slowly entered the ancient city of Mogao and took a closer look. There was no prosperity in the city as he had imagined, no tall buildings, and no crowds of people.
The ground here is dirty and there are no signs of any repairs. After the strong wind swept through, the sky was filled with yellow sand, blurring people's sight.
The buildings in the city are all adobe houses, so dilapidated that they look like they could be blown down by a strong wind.
A few passers-by wore long robes and hats, covering their faces with cotton cloth, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.
They lead camels or horses and speak in extremely thick accents, making it difficult for outsiders to understand them.
As Wei An walked on the street, camel and horse excrement could be seen everywhere.
No one cleans.
Fresh feces will soon be dried by wind and sand, turning into dregs, and then scattered with the wind, entering thousands of households.
Soon, Wei An walked into a wine shop.
In an instant, the smell of wine grains, fishy smell, mutton smell, sweat smell, all kinds of smells were mixed together and rushed towards my face.
Wei An frowned, but still stepped in.
There were seven or eight tables in the restaurant, and three of them were occupied by people, all of them tall and handsome men with beards.
"Guest, please come in, what can I have to eat?"
The waiter came up to him, took off the towel from his shoulders, wiped a table, and signaled to Wei An that there was no one here and he could sit down.
