Chapter 399: Five-story demon tower! What a truth!

But... Tianji will not have a good life from now on.

Tianji didn't know that Shen Lian had so many things on his mind. She frowned and thought for a while. After thinking about it, she breathed out gently and said, "Okay, I promise you."

Shen Lian smiled, put his arms around Tianji, and said with a smile, "He is indeed my good brother."

"Who is your good brother!"

Tianji looked disgusted.

Shen Lian laughed and didn't care.

It was still early, so Shen Lian led everyone back to the inn.

He ordered another table of food, and after everyone was satisfied with the meal, they each returned to their rooms.

He said to Si She and others: "Tonight, Si She and Tian Ji will accompany me to explore the Beidou Temple at night. The rest of you can rest here and have a good rest. If you don't see the three of us back tomorrow morning, you should leave Taihe immediately." City, go find the army and tell Xue Rengui to stop the attack immediately and return to the border to garrison. This is a big problem for Nanzhao."

Sishe and Tianji looked a little solemn when they heard this.

However, they also understood what Shen Lian meant. If even Shen Lian's intelligence and intelligence could not escape safely, then Nanzhao would definitely be extremely dangerous.

In this case, without understanding the true situation in Nanzhao, retreating is the safest option.

The other shadow guards were a little worried about Shen Lian's safety, but they also knew that they were Shen Lian's last resort and shouldered the important task of delivering information, so they could only suppress their anxiety and stay here for the follow-up.

"Si snake."

Shen Lian then said: "You guys take a rest first. We are preparing to set off at midnight. Before that, take a rest and recharge your batteries. There will be no danger tonight, so we must maintain the best condition."

"yes!"

Sishe took Tianji and returned to the room to rest.

Shen Lian also returned to his room.

Lying on the couch, thinking of the stone statue of Lady Beidou, Shen Lian frowned slightly.

He believes that sculptures based on human appearance will never appear out of thin air, and there must be some references.

Even if it is not a reference of one person, there must be a reference in the mind of the sculptor on the eyes and nose.

So who is the reference for this sculpture of Lady Beidou?

Why didn't the Beidou Society get a Beidou Eunuch instead of a Beidou Empress?

Is there any secret in this?

Shen Lian felt that with the Beidou Society's behavior, they would not create such a statue of a person for no reason as a belief for the people.

There must be some reasons for this.

But what the reason was, Shen Lian had a hard time figuring out in a short time.

There are still too few clues at hand.

Maybe after he visits Beidou Temple at night, he can get some effective clues.

Maybe we can figure out the situation of the Beidou Empress.

After yawning, Shen Lian stopped thinking about it and soon fell into a deep sleep.

When Shen Lian opened his eyes again, it was already midnight.

As soon as Sishe knocked on the door, Shen Lian woke up instantly.

He stood up quickly and took two daggers directly without bringing any big weapons and hid them in his waist.

After sorting out his clothes and making sure everything was ready, he walked directly to the door and opened it.

Sishe and Tianji are standing outside.

"Come in." Shen Lian said.

The two quickly entered Shen Lian's room and Sishe closed the door.

Shen Lian looked at the two of them and said, "Have you rested?"

Sishe smiled and said: "You are full of energy, very energetic."

Tianji said nothing.

Shen Lian didn't care. If Tianji was as well-behaved as Sishe, there would be a problem.

"Then stop talking nonsense and let's go."

Shen Lian pushed open the window.

He happens to live in a room facing the street, so this is the most suitable place to leave.

He walked to the window and looked down.

Nanzhao has a curfew at night, so there is no one down there at this time. The streets that were busy during the day are quiet at this moment.

Shen Lian looked around and after confirming that there were no patrolling soldiers, he said, "Let's go!"

As he spoke, he jumped out of the window and quickly landed on the ground with the help of a tree opposite.

Sishe glanced at Tianji, who curled her lips and quickly jumped out.

The snake jumped out last.

Shen Lian had told him before to keep an eye on Tianji and to do anything, Tianji must do it before he does it. Tianji must be in his sight at all times.

So Si She's most important task today is actually to keep an eye on Tianji.

Tianji naturally knew this, but there was nothing she could do about it. If she refused to be stared at, Shen Lian probably wouldn't let him out.

The three of them were dressed in night clothes and moved quickly on the street.

The three of them, Shen Lian, were all very strong in Kung Fu and their movements were very sharp, so even if they encountered patrolling Nanzhao soldiers, they would all avoid them at extremely fast speeds.

The patrolling soldiers in Nanzhao did not notice at all that there were some people hiding in the shadows not far from them.

After these patrol officers left, Shen Lian and the others continued moving forward.

Their speed was very fast, and they arrived at Beidou Temple in a short time.

The decoration of Beidou Temple is relatively gorgeous. Standing outside, you can see the tallest tower inside.

The tower is five stories high and is the tallest building in Taihe City.

Very conspicuous.

At this moment, the gate of Beidou Temple is closed, but there are lanterns hanging outside. The lanterns emit a soft halo, which dispels some of the darkness.

Under the illumination of the lantern, the three words "Beidou Temple" came into view.

Shen Lian took a look at the luxuriously decorated Beidou Temple, looked at the tall towers in the temple, and chuckled: "It seems that the status of the Beidou Temple in Nanzhao is really not simple. Even if it is the official government of Nanzhao here, No building is as tall as it."

Tianji remained silent and did not respond.

Shen Lian glanced at Tianji, a little surprised.

Tianji was unusually quiet.

This is not quite like Tianji's temperament.

Why?

Is there anything special about Beidou Temple to Tianji?

Shen Lian was suspicious in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface. He chuckled and said, "Okay, let's take action as soon as possible."

With that said, he walked to the side of the courtyard wall and easily climbed over the wall.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Standing on the wall, looking towards Beidou, the vision suddenly became clearer.

I saw that this Beidou Temple is very simple.

After passing the gate, there is a large square with two rows of houses on both sides of the square, which seem to be used by Beidou Guan members.

Directly opposite the square is the five-story tower.

The tower is completely black and looks a bit eerie under the moonlight.

A dark tower was placed under the moonlight. No matter how the pale moonlight shone, it was always so dark. This scene really made Shen Lian feel a strange feeling.

He suddenly remembered a work he saw in his previous life - the nine-story demon tower!

But this tower only has five floors.

But the strange feeling was even more obvious than the nine-story demon tower he saw in his previous life.

"It's really quite demonic!"

Shen Lian chuckled lightly, turned around and gestured to Si She and the other two, and they immediately jumped up.

Sishe looked at the five-story black tower in front of her and couldn't help but said: "Why does this tower feel a little scary?"

Shen Lian looked at Tianji and asked with a smile: "Is black the color Beidou likes?"

Tianji curled his lips and said: "It is said that the Beidou Society was founded by Gui Guzi. It has always had the important task of stabilizing the world and overthrowing the decadent dynasty. No matter what they do, they always claim to be for the common people of the world. , so how could you use black, a color that obviously doesn’t look like a good person?”

"Shen Lian, you don't think the people in the Beidou Society think their behavior is bad, do you?"

"No, their self-brainwashing skills are very strong. They think they are doing things for the common people in the world, so killing some people and killing others are all necessary sacrifices for their great cause."

"They are not the kind of pure evil people. If you treat them with such evil thoughts, then you are really wrong."

Qin Chenlian raised his eyebrows slightly: "Do you think you are a saint?"

Tianji thought for a while and smiled: "They really think that what they do is not much worse than the saints."

"interesting."

Shen Lian laughed.

He regarded those people from the Beidou Society as treacherous and evil people.

Some are ruthless and unjust people who do whatever it takes to achieve their goals.

But according to Tianji, Beidou Society and others do not think that they are doing bad things, but instead think that they are doing the things of saints.

This is interesting.

If the concepts are different, the choices on some things may also be different.

Shen Lian wrote this down, maybe it will be useful in the future, and he can judge the Beidou Society's behavior more effectively.

But now is not the time to think wildly.

Shen Lian took a deep breath, suppressed these active thoughts, and looked inside Beidou Temple again.

I saw that the entire Beidou Temple was quiet, with only a few lanterns swaying in the wind, giving some light.

In addition, the entire Beidou Temple is very dark.

"Let's go and be quiet."

Shen Lian didn't waste any more time and quickly climbed down the wall.

It moved like a cat and landed on the ground very gently.

Tianji and Sishe also jumped down one after another. Tianji seemed to be particularly sensible this time and did not make any noise, which made Shen Lian very satisfied.

"Go, enter the tower."

Before coming to Beidou Temple, Shen Lian had done some homework.

He knew that within the Beidou Temple, only the Beidou Tower was the only place of worship. The other buildings were only used for eating, drinking, sleeping, and sleeping.

Therefore, if you want to explore the secrets of Beidou Temple, you can only enter the tower.

Wearing night clothes, he looked like a night elf and soon arrived in front of the Beidou Tower.

Standing in front of the tower and looking up, I realized that the Beidou Tower was really very tall. The pure black tower body, the pale moonlight, and the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the treetops formed a special picture.

…………

In front of the pagoda gate, there is a plaque with the words "Beidou Temple" written on it.

Shen Lian felt that Beidou seemed to have a special liking for the word "Beidou".

Beidou Temple, Beidou Tower, Beidou Empress...

Does Beidou really want to become the only existence in the world?

"Sishe, go and have a look."

Shen Lian winked at Si She.

Sishe quickly ran to the door. He glanced at the tower door gently, and then whispered to Shen Lian: "It's not locked."

No lock?

Is there anyone guarding it inside?

Shen Lian felt that such an important place could not be without protection measures.

He reached the sound of the snake in two steps and put his ear against the door, listening to the sounds inside.

After a moment, he raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "There is breathing sound inside."

After making a judgment, he said: "Two people."

Tianji raised his eyebrows, is it true?

If you can hear breathing through the door, how many people can you tell?

So awesome?

Tianji suspected that Shen Lian was deceiving him.

But Shen Lian didn't pay attention to Tianji's expression, he continued to listen.

After listening quietly for a while, he said, "The breathing is long and regular. He must have fallen asleep."

Tianji raised his eyebrows.

I can hear it even when I'm asleep, is it true?

She felt more and more that Shen Lian was teasing her.

Through a door, you can't see anything inside. How can you hear so much content just by listening.

Sishe, however, had no doubts about Shen Lian's words.

Others don't know how evil the young master is, but Si She knows it all too well.

He knew that the young master's vision and hearing were far superior to theirs, so he had always suspected that the young master might really be the reincarnation of a god.

Shen Lian listened for a while to make sure there was no additional movement, then stood up and said, "Sishe, you deal with the one on the left, and I'll deal with the one on the right."

Sishe nodded without any hesitation.

With that said, Shen Lian pushed the door gently, and the originally closed door was immediately pushed open.

The next moment, before Tianji could see clearly what was going on inside, she saw Shen Lian rushing in.

Si Snake followed closely behind.

The two of them had a tacit understanding, one turned to the left and the other to the right.

Then Tianji heard two muffled bangs and Shen Lian's voice: "Come in, it's okay."

Tianji's eyes widened.

Somewhat unbelievable.

She quickly entered the Beidou Tower and saw two people lying on both sides of the door.

Behind them, Shen Lian and Si She stood up slowly.

Tianji couldn't help but said: "Shen Lian, did you really hear it?"

Shen Lian rolled his eyes: "Do you think I'm teasing you? I have such a leisurely mood?"

Tianji didn't know what to say.

evildoer.

Shen Lian is definitely a monster.

The snake turned around and closed the door.

Only then did Shen Lian look around seriously.

You can see that the tower is very wide and the hall on the first floor is also very spacious.

Right in front of the hall, there is a huge incense burner.

This incense burner is made of a tripod. The four-legged bronze tripod stands majestically here.

There is a lot of incense ashes inside the bronze tripod.

It can be known that pilgrims come here to set it off.

Behind the bronze tripod, there is a table with a merit box on the table.

In front of the bronze tripod, there are some futons, which have always been used by believers to kneel and worship.

The entire spacious first-floor hall is filled with these things.

Shen Lian walked around the bronze tripod, came to the table, reached out and grabbed the merit box, lifted it, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "That's a lot of money."

"This is not the money they defrauded by using the stone statues to appear today, but the money invested voluntarily by believers."

"It seems like this Beidou Temple is really making a lot of money."

"Not to mention making money every day, it's not much different."

Tianji squinted her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking, and said nothing.
