"As the head of the Imperial City Department of Yufu State, how could he be so confused?"
"Didn't he notice it at all?"
The owner of Miaoyin felt strange that Yufu State was in charge of the Imperial City Division and should not be such a fool. Bayi Chinese Website
Long Chen said: "No, he noticed it. He had already suspected me, so he sent me to Longxing Valley."
"It's just that he was a little slow, and I took action first."
Yu Fuguo was not stupid, he was just a step too late, and Long Chen got there first.
The empress smiled and said: "It's not that Yu Fuguo is stupid, it's that someone is too treacherous."
Long Chen smiled and did not answer the empress's words.
Due to Di Luoxi's face, Long Chen couldn't do anything to the empress.
Master Ziyun smiled and said: "Yes, this thief is so cunning that even the Holy One was deceived by him."
Long Chen immediately retorted: "Sister, don't talk nonsense. Your Majesty and I are innocent. How have I ever deceived Your Majesty?"
Ziyun and Miaoyin looked at the empress laughing, and the empress said coldly: "How can he have such ability? If he really has the ability to deceive me, there is no need to peek."
Well...
This taunt left Long Chen speechless.
Ziyun chuckled and said: "Brother, before I prove your usefulness, the Empress Sister is right in front of you."
Miaoyin chuckled and said, "How about we make your bed?"
Long Chen stood up and said: "I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave."
You can't afford to offend these three eldest sisters, so it's best to leave first.
The empress said coldly: "Why are you running away! I can still eat you!"
The more mature the empress' bloodline was, the greater her feelings for Long Chen became, and she couldn't hold it back any longer.
"Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."
Long Chen was respectful and did not dare to cross the thunder pool even half a step.
The empress said with an unhappy look: "There is someone waiting for you in the secret room in the backyard. Go and meet him."
The person the empress spoke of was naturally Taoist Priest Xuanzhen.
Long Chen didn't know, but he immediately bowed and said: "Wei Chen accepts the order, Wei Chen will retire."
Amidst the laughter of Ziyun and Miaoyin, Long Chen exited the room.
"One is longing for the rain after a long drought, while the other has a thief's heart but no courage."
"Sister Empress, I'm afraid I have to hold it in forever."
Master Ziyun laughed and said.
The empress exhaled and said displeasedly: "What's going on with this kid? He's getting less and less courageous. He used to dare to do anything, but now he only dares to peek!"
The owner of Miaoyin smiled and said: "Perhaps...there is a last resort."
Long Chen left the room, shook his head helplessly and said: "I really think I am a coward. One day I will be cruel and cook you all, so what if the empress does not matter!"
When they arrived at the backyard, the guard saw Long Chen and immediately saluted.
It was cold at this time and there was no one outside. I could only hear voices in the room.
"Master, it's so cold here, it's snowing."
A child's voice came from the room.
A man's voice said: "You didn't clamor to see the snow, but now you see it, you say it's cold."
Long Chen knocked on the door, and the door opened immediately. A little Taoist boy stood at the door, looking up at Long Chen.
"Hey, you are...Long Chen?"
The little Taoist boy guessed Long Chen's identity at once.
Long Chen smiled and said: "Exactly, are you looking for me?"
The little Taoist boy didn't answer, but turned around and shouted: "Master, Long Chen is back."
In the room, an old man and a young man walked over quickly, bowed to Long Chen and said, "My poor Taoist Xuanzhen, I would like to pay my respects to King Wu."
"The poor Taoist Liang Yao pays homage to King Wu."
Long Chen returned the greeting and said, "Excuse me, Long Chen. The two Taoist priests are polite."
The little Taoist boy was a little unhappy and said, "Why don't you salute me?"
Long Chen looked down at the little Taoist boy and said with a smile: "I'm polite, little Taoist."
The little Taoist boy happily hid behind Xuanzhen.
"I heard that the Taoist priest has something to do with me?"
Long Chen looked at Xuanzhen, Taoist Master Xuanzhen nodded slightly and said: "Yes, King Wu, please sit down."
Long Chen entered the room and sat down. The room was a little dim. There was a stove in the middle. The little Taoist boy immediately sat back beside the stove and put his hands on the fire to grill. There was a fish next to him, which was already sizzling with oil.
The skin is baked to a golden brown.
Sitting down, Liang Yao poured tea and Long Chen thanked him.
Taoist Master Xuanzhen looked at Long Chen carefully and said, "Xuanzhen, a poor Taoist, comes from Lihuo Island."
When he heard about Lihuo Island, Long Chen immediately said: "It turns out he is the Taoist Priest of Lihuo Island, disrespectful."
"The magic-suppressing stone comes from Lihuo Island, so the Taoist priest must know something."
Long Chen only knew that the Demon Suppressing Stone came from Lihuo Island, but he didn't know that there were Taoist priests on Lihuo Island.
Taoist Priest Xuanzhen guessed that the demon-suppressing stone in Long Chen's mouth should be the blood stone from Lihuo Island.
"Yes, many merchants and fishermen have been digging for magic stones recently. It must be King Wu who is buying them at a high price, right?"
Long Chen said: "Yes, I was worried that the ghost fetuses would be damaged, so I bought them at high prices in advance. There are already quite a few."
Liang Yao said: "King Wu has serious concerns. Lihuo Island has been controlled by Daliang."
The little Taoist boy raised his head and said: "Our Taoist temple has also been occupied by those bad people."
Long Chen was secretly glad in his heart. Fortunately, he had made preparations in advance. Otherwise, Lihuo Island would have been controlled by ghost fetuses and he would not even be able to get the demon-suppressing stone.
Long Chen asked: "Taoist Priest, do you know more about ghost fetuses?"
Taoist Priest Xuanzhen said: "Speaking of which, our Fiery Fire Temple has a connection with the Long family. Our first-generation ancestor is Long Wu, the second son of Long Yuan, the ancestor of the Long family."
Long Chen was stunned, he didn't expect there to be such a connection.
"How come I don't know about this?"
As a member of the Long family, Long Chen had never heard that any ancestor of the Long family was a Taoist priest on Lihuo Island.
Taoist Master Xuanzhen said: "It's so old that it's normal for King Wu not to know."
"The purpose of establishing the Fire Temple is to protect the magic stones on Lihuo Island and prevent the invasion of ghosts."
"Originally, the Long family should have known about it, but the Long family gradually declined, and the White Wolf Mountain tragedy even occurred."
"Pindao once thought that the Long family was extinct, but it was lucky that King Wu was still alive."
Long Chen sighed slightly and said: "Actually, the gradual disappearance of the Long family is related to the ghost fetus. He captured the people from our branch of the Long family and raised them as blood slaves."
Taoist Priest Xuanzhen was stunned and asked: "The branch of the Long family was captured by ghosts?"
Long Chen said: "Hundreds of years, Gui Fei has enough time, he has a high level of cultivation, who is his opponent?"
With the cultivation of the real realm, the ghost fetus catches people like an eagle catches a chicken, and no one can resist.
More than 200 years are enough to eliminate all branches of the Long family.
Liang Yao looked at Long Chen and said happily: "Fortunately, King Wu is fine, otherwise..."
Taoist Master Xuanzhen said: "Now there is only King Wu left in the Long family. There are some things that I must explain clearly to King Wu."
Long Chen sat up straight and said, "Taoist Master, please speak."
Taoist Priest Xuanzhen said: "Our Liehuo Temple was established to protect Lihuo Island. When the ghosts invade, we will follow the Long Family to resist the ghosts."
"King Wu already knows about what happened 400 years ago, so Pindao won't elaborate on it..."
Long Chen took Taoist Master Xuanzhen's words into consideration and said, "Taoist Master, please tell me carefully what you know."
"The younger generation has pieced together what happened 400 years ago based on historical data and some of his own guesses, which are incomplete."
"Please ask the Taoist priest to explain it carefully."
The more you know about the past, the more likely you are to find ways to deal with ghost fetuses.
Long Chen's understanding of the past was incomplete, and he wanted to hear Taoist Priest Xuanzhen's account.
Taoist Master Xuanzhen nodded slightly and said, "Okay, then, let me tell you about the record of this period of history by our Fiery Fire Temple."
