Inside the courtyard gate of the Sanqing Hall, hundreds of Taoist priests formed a circle inside and outside. Under the door plaque of the Sanqing Hall, there were three white-haired Taoist priests with immortal Taoism. At this time, they kept chanting Taoist slogans.
.
Du Ruoxi and the others stood high on the threshold, and could just see a sarcophagus placed in the circle surrounded by Taoist priests, and on top of the sarcophagus stood a "human" monster.
Du Ruoxi and the others thought this was a "human" monster. The reason was very simple. This person was almost one foot tall, close to three meters. Such a height had never been heard of in the whole world. Moreover, this person was naked.
, because his back was facing them, Du Ruoxi could only see the back of this "person", but Du Ruoxi had never heard of veins squirming on a person's back. For some reason, Du Ruoxi suddenly remembered that before.
A character from an anime I watched: Super Saiyan.
"Ruoxi, look at this man's feet..." The voice of a girl next to Du Ruoxi was trembling, and she pointed at the man on the sarcophagus. Du Ruoxi heard the words and looked down. At this sight, her mouth opened wide.
, speechless.
There were two jumping flames under the feet of the weird man. There were two flames under the man's feet. This was an incredible thing, but the man didn't make any move, as if the flames were not burning his feet.
The same, and indeed, there is nothing strange about this weirdo's feet.
When Du Ruoxi and others came in, they were noticed by the young Taoist priest who had blocked them before. However, the young Taoist priest only glanced at them and continued to recite Taoist scriptures with his eyes, nose, nose, and heart.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, my three brothers heard the dream from the Patriarch yesterday and knew that an old friend would come to the door today. The Patriarch has already explained everything." The old Taoist priest in the middle of the steps of the Sanqing Palace looked at the weird man in the middle and said.
: "The Patriarch said that I owed a favor to the benefactor in the Shangqing Palace back then. Today is the day to end this karma. Everything is ready."
As soon as the old Taoist said these words, all the Taoist priests who were chanting sutras stopped and looked at the weirdo in the middle of the field with sad and angry faces. Du Ruoxi, who was watching on the side, was very curious.
"This Taoist priest said that he should repay a kindness to others. Why do these little Taoist priests look like this? Originally, a drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring of spring. It is normal to repay a debt of gratitude to others." Du Ruoxi even saw that before
The little Taoist priest who stopped them secretly wiped away his tears.
"Do you know who I am?"
The weirdo in the scene finally spoke. After hearing this, the old Taoist Haoshou was stunned for a moment, then clasped his hands together and replied: "I don't know who the benefactor is, but the founder told me in a dream that he will open the underground palace for the benefactor today."
"The leader is not allowed!"
When the Taoist priests in the audience heard this, they couldn't help it any longer, and they all spoke to stop him. The old Taoist priest raised his hand, and these Taoist priests reluctantly shut up.
"This is what I owed the Shangqing Palace that day. Don't try to persuade me anymore. From today on, the Shangqing Palace will be closed for a hundred years, and the disciples of the Shangqing Palace will no longer be able to set foot on Mang Mountain."
"I will obey the master's teachings." All the Taoist priests, including the other two Taoists next to Old Taoist Haoshou, all knelt down and worshiped. Only the old Taoist, the weirdo, and Du Ruoxi's group were left in the field and did not kneel down.
In this way, Du Ruoxi and his party were clearly exposed in front of the Taoist priests. A girl next to Du Ruoxi gently pulled off Du Ruoxi's clothes and asked softly: "Ruoxi, should we also kneel down and worship?"
"I don't think it's necessary? We're not Taoist priests." Du Ruoxi replied uncertainly.
"I think we'd better go. I'm really worried about what's going on here. These Taoist priests are just like their parents who are about to die. They all look like they are bitter and resentful."
"I also think the atmosphere here is too weird. Mr. Du, let's leave quickly."
Two of Du Ruoxi's female classmates were about to leave. Although the three boys didn't say it explicitly, they seemed to be scared and wanted to leave. Although Du Ruoxi was curious, she could only nod in agreement, and a few of them wanted to quietly turn around and leave.
Enter the main hall door.
"Since the donors are here by fate, please sit down for a while."
But just when Du Ruoxi and the others turned around, the voice of the Taoist Haoshou came from behind. Then Du Ruoxi and the others were stopped by several Taoist priests, and the Taoist priests who stopped them were the same ones who were at the gate of the Taoist temple.
.
Du Ruoxi looked at the young Taoist priest in front of him with two tears on his face and a serious look on his face. He couldn't help but burst out laughing. When the young Taoist priest saw Du Ruoxi's smile, he showed an annoyed look on his face.
With a look on his face, he glared at Du Ruoxi fiercely and said, "The master has an order, so the donors should stand here first."
"Why can't your Taoist temple restrict our personal freedom? If you stop us again, please be careful and I will report you and warn you."
Fan Weishu was stopped by several Taoist priests. He wanted to push them away, but found that they were not moving at all. Finally, he got annoyed and had to threaten them.
"I told you not to come in at the beginning, but you have to come in. You deserve it, huh!" The young Taoist priest snorted softly. Fan Weishu, although his physical fitness is not good, he has a good temper. He will stretch out his arms when he hears this.
He hit the young Taoist priest's face with his fist, but luckily he was held back by his companion.
Du Ruoxi glanced at Fan Weishu with some disgust. I had heard that Fan Weishu was a very intelligent person, but it seemed like that. He didn't even look at where this place was. If you want to hit someone on someone else's territory, don't wait until you die.
Go get them. Besides, with his physique, I really don’t know who will hit whom when the time comes.
"Donors, please be patient. This incident is the secret of my Shangqing Palace. Therefore, the donors cannot leave here until the matter is resolved. If there is any inconvenience, I, Shangqing Palace, will compensate you separately after the matter is resolved.
"
The old Taoist Haoshou looked at Du Ruoxi and others, and the young Taoist priest stretched out his hand and said, "Okay, please hand over your mobile phones first."
"What you are doing is illegal, I want to..."
"Fan Weishu, that's enough!"
Fan Weishu continued to argue, but was interrupted by Du Ruoxi's scolding. Du Ruoxi looked at Fan Weishu with an angry face. With such an IQ, he could be called a young genius. He was indeed a die-hard scholar.
They have made it clear that they are not afraid of you suing, so what's the use of being in such a stalemate? If you really want to sue, you have to wait until you can leave this Taoist temple.
Du Ruoxi was the first to take out her mobile phone. In fact, from her own perspective, she also hoped to stay. Things here really aroused her curiosity, and she wanted to see what happened.
After the group of people, except Du Ruoxi, reluctantly handed over their mobile phones, they were pushed to the front by the Taoist priests and stood in the inner circle, below the three veteran Taoists.
Standing in this position, facing the weirdo, Du Ruoxi had long wanted to take a look at the weirdo's face, and immediately he couldn't wait to look towards the middle of the field. However, just after taking a glance, his whole body jumped.
So soft that I almost sat on the ground.
"ah!"
A high-decibel scream came from beside Du Ruoxi. When Du Ruoxi turned around, she realized that it was her roommate. Her roommate had a look of horror on her face. Apparently she also looked at the face of the weirdo in the field and was frightened by that weirdo's face.
.
"My mother, what kind of monster is this?" Cai Nanchi said tremblingly.
As if he had heard Cai Nanchi's words, the weird man's eyes swept over here. With just one glance, Cai Nanchi broke out in a cold sweat.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, why should the benefactor be like a few children? To open the underground palace this time, the benefactor is still needed. Please follow me into the Sanqing Hall."
The old man spoke, causing the weirdo to retract his gaze. Du Ruoxi and the others felt that their hearts were about to jump out of their chests just now. The monster's eyes were so sharp that they could suffocate people. It was obvious that if the old Taoist priest hadn't spoken, I'm afraid that
All of them will make a fool of themselves.
The weirdo ignored Du Ruoxi and the others and followed the old Taoist Haoshou into the Sanqing Hall. The two flames on the weirdo's feet did not burn when he walked on them, especially when he crossed the wooden threshold. It was like this
Fire has no effect at all, it is just a beautiful decoration.
Also following in were more than 20 middle-aged Taoist priests in two rows, and now only a group of young Taoist priests were left outside the hall.
"Why did you shout so loud just now? I was almost killed by you." Three old Taoists and weirdos walked into the Sanqing Hall, and the young Taoist priest said to Du Ruoxi and others in an unhappy tone.
"Can you stop screaming when you see such a scary face?" Du Ruoxi retorted.
The young Taoist priest was speechless by Du Ruoxi's words. Indeed, he and his fellow apprentices were also frightened when they saw the strange man's face earlier. They were no better than these few.
"Little Taoist priest, who is this weirdo?" Du Ruoxi turned his eyes and asked the young Taoist priest.
"This is none of your business. It's best to ask less. Knowing too much will do you no good. When the matter is over, you should leave quickly and don't mention what you saw today to others."
The young Taoist priest was very tight-lipped. No matter what Du Ruoxi tried to do, he could not get away with it at all. Since nothing could be said from the young Taoist priest's mouth, Du Ruoxi turned his eyes to the sarcophagus in the middle of the field and asked curiously: "What's this?"
Where did the sarcophagus come from? Why haven't I seen it before when I was in the Shangqing Palace?"
"Don't ask too much. I'm doing it for your own good. Ordinary people like you, it's better not to know so much about this matter. It won't do you any good." The young Taoist priest glared at Du Ruoxi, but Du Ruoxi didn't care at all.
, instead walked towards the sarcophagus.
"What are you going to do?" The young Taoist priest saw Du Ruoxi's hand on the sarcophagus and stepped forward to stop him.
"There is something inside the sarcophagus. I can feel the sound of breathing. Listen?" Du Ruoxi showed a smile on his face. He didn't care about the expression of the young Taoist priest. He put his ear on the sarcophagus and motioned for the young Taoist priest to come and listen.
After listening to Du Ruoxi's words, the young Taoist priest hesitated for a moment. To be honest, he was also very curious about the sarcophagus, and he immediately put his ear to the sarcophagus and listened.
Sure enough, after listening carefully, the young Taoist priest heard a long breathing sound. At that moment, the young Taoist priest stared at the boss and exchanged a look with Du Ruoxi.
"Let's open this sarcophagus and take a look. I suspect there is someone inside this sarcophagus." Du Ruoxi suggested.
"No, the master told me that this sarcophagus cannot be opened, and this sarcophagus is not something we have in mind. It was brought by that person, and we have no right to open it." (To be continued)
