Follow the steps all the way up the mountain, winding stone steps, silently telling the past glory of Lanruo Temple.
Wang Xu takes a step of ten meters, which is more like flying than running.
Soon, following the open door of the temple, Wang Xu entered and said loudly: "Big beard, big beard?"
Quiet, except for the sound of wind and rain, Lanruo Temple was completely silent, with no one responding at all.
Wang Xu touched the ground with his toes, soared into the air, and entered the main hall of the main entrance.
In the Main Hall, there should have been a statue of Buddha Tathagata, but now there is nothing here except rubble.
Wang Xu landed on the ground and glanced at the gravel around him. He could vaguely see the shadow of the Buddha statue in the gravel.
Temples were destroyed, monks died, and Buddha statues were broken into pieces.
What happened here before? Even the statue of Tathagata Buddha was broken. How powerful a monster would dare to do this?
Before, he suspected that the destruction of Lanruo Temple might be related to Grandma Shu. Now look at it, a little thousand-year-old tree demon might not dare to desecrate the statue of Buddha.
"Forget it, it's important to find Yan Chixia."
Wang Xu pushed open the door and went straight to the back of the temple.
Lanruo Temple is the royal temple of Prince Yan's Mansion. During the previous dynasties, this place was not only used to pray for Prince Yan, but also served as a palace for Prince Yan. Prince Yan would come here to stay for a few days every year.
In addition to the several Buddhist temples in the front, there are countless attic courtyards behind Lanruo Temple. If Yan Chixia is in Lanruo Temple, she is most likely in the attic at the back.
After a few leaps and flies over the Buddhist temple in front, Wang Xu landed in the courtyard behind.
When he looked up, he saw that the surrounding courtyard had long been deserted, and the half-opened windows were rattled by the strong wind. It was obvious at a glance that no one was living there.
Wang Xu pushed open the door without believing anything, and checked several attics, but found no trace of Yan Chixia.
In the end, he could only stand outside the main building, looking at Lanruo Temple under the misty rain, and muttered: "What's going on? Ning Caichen has appeared, where is Yan Chixia?"
Although it is hard to believe, Yan Chixia is really not here, and there is no sign of her coming.
Then, he thought about Wumenju and the Nine-tailed Fox, the ghost king. Could it be that Yan Chixia had not solved the ghost king yet, but was delayed there, so she did not go to Lanruo Temple to live in seclusion after solving the ghost king like in the plot.
This possibility is very high. You must know that Ning Caichen should meet General Xiahou on the way.
And here, General Xiahou has been subdued by Wang Xu, and on the condition that he will tell him the whereabouts of his son in three years, Xiahou will serve him for three years in exchange.
Therefore, Ning Caichen did not meet General Xiahou on the way, which fully shows that under the instigation of butterfly wings, the plot is not static.
Woo woo woo
A gust of cold wind blew by, accompanied by the rotation of dead leaves, and eight more girls appeared outside the courtyard.
Among the girls, the two leading ones, one in white and the other in Tsing Yi, smiled sweetly at Wang Xu and said: "Servant Nie Xiaoqian, slave Xiaoqing, grandma said that there are distinguished guests visiting, so she specially asked us to bring wine, melons and fruits, such as
If the hospitality is not good, please let me know."
Under the laughter of the two girls, three girls walked out from the left and right, carrying wine bottles, fruits, candied dates, and fluttering white clothes up to the second floor.
Wang Xu had no expression on his face and let the girls put the fruits in the room. He then walked away lightly and nodded: "Grandma is interested."
"Sir, it's daytime now. We can only appear temporarily due to the thunderstorm. Please forgive me if we can't stay for a long time."
Accompanied by laughter and laughter, the female ghosts came and went quickly, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
After Wang Xu waited for the female ghosts to leave, he returned to the room and found that the room had been cleaned up and the fruit plates were placed on the table in the room.
Under the wine pot, there was a piece of white gauze. Wang Xu took it in his hand and looked at it, and said: "Brother Jiang has been gone for a long time and I miss him very much. We had an appointment that day. I told him that at the entrance of the Underground Palace, Jiang
Brother helped me gather incense and build a temple. Now half a year has passed and there is no news from Brother Jiang. Is there any change in this matter?"
On Shaman, there is a handwritten letter written by Grandma Shu. From the meaning behind the words, it seems that Jiang Tianchen got the entrance to the underground palace of King Yan’s tomb from Grandma Shu’s mouth, and promised to build a temple on Lanruo Temple for Grandma Shu.
, let her receive incense offerings.
Unfortunately, Jiang Tianchen's injuries never recovered after escaping from the underground palace. In order to hide the secret of King Yan's tomb, he did not dare to tell anyone about his injuries until he was defeated at the hands of Wang Xu.
"This Grandma Shu actually thinks that I am Jiang Tianchen's subordinate. Its intelligence level is not very good!" The letter in Wang Xu's hand was written not only to Jiang Tianchen, but also to him.
In a few words, Grandma Shu recounted what had happened, and at the end pointed out that Jiang Tianchen had not kept his promise and that something had happened.
Between the lines, Wang Xu could see Grandma Shu's concern for Jiang Tianchen, or in other words, for her temple.
Although Shu Lao Lao is entrenched in Lanruo Temple and is a source of disaster, but compared to the big demon who can build a temple for himself and enjoy incense and offerings, Shu Lao Lao is the difference between Tubal Road and the regular army.
Once it is allowed to build the temple, Grandma Shu will no longer be a monster that everyone shouts to beat, but an out-and-out monster god.
Although Wang Xu didn't understand the art of incense, he understood that having his own temple must be a big deal and a good thing for Grandma Shu, otherwise it wouldn't be so urgent.
It's a pity that Jiang Tianchen has passed away, and the promises made at that time naturally disappeared.
Moreover, the establishment of temples has always been forbidden by the imperial court. In addition, if a temple is built for an evil god, if the evil god who owns the temple does evil, the person who built the temple will bear part of the cause and effect. Wang Xu can be sure that Grandma Shu’s plan will only end up being bamboo.
Basket to fetch water.
"When I see Grandma Shu, maybe I can replace Jiang Tianchen and use the excuse of building a temple to find out the whereabouts of King Yan's tomb from Grandma Shu. No, let's forget it. The promise itself is cause and effect. Let's wait until Ning Caichen comes in the evening.
Now, let him seduce Nie Xiaoqian, and then find out the whereabouts of King Yan's tomb from these female ghosts, this will be a cheaper price."
Wang Xu originally wanted to have a showdown with Grandma Shu, but then he thought about it and realized that he didn't need to do that at all.
Even if Ning Caichen doesn't get Nie Xiaoqian's heart and the beauty trick fails, he can still use an insect robot to turn over a ten-mile radius and find the tomb of King Yan.
In this case, what to do with Grandma Shu? He only needs Grandma Shu to stop causing trouble for him. When the time comes, everyone will go back to their own way, and there won't be many intersections at all.
If Grandma Shu doesn't agree and can't reach an agreement, it will be even simpler. As the saying goes, a monk who can run away can't run away from the temple.
Grandma Shu is a thousand-year-old tree spirit, and her true body is in the mountains behind Lanruo Temple. Wang Xu has many ways to deal with it.
As soon as the thought came to his mind, Wang Xu sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and waited quietly for nightfall.
It didn't rain much today, and it stopped raining in the afternoon.
Wang Xu sat cross-legged on the attic on the second floor, closing his eyes and practicing hard. It was night soon.
Tick-tick, tick-tock
A burst of suona sound came from outside, which sounded very lively.
Wang Xu gently opened his eyes, walked to the window on the second floor and looked down. He saw a little ghost in red playing the suona to clear the way, a female ghost in white with petals flying, and four bearers who looked like paper figures.
Carrying a big red soft sedan chair.
"stop!"
The team stopped in the courtyard. Grandma Shu, who was wearing a black robe, walked down from Jiaozi and said, "Xiaoqian and Xiaoqing stay, everyone else should go back."
"Yes, grandma." The little ghosts laughed and walked away, and the sound of the suona gradually faded away.
Grandma Shu raised her head slightly, glanced at Wang Xu who was standing by the window, and warned: "Now the etiquette is broken, and everything is not peaceful, but you can't underestimate the court just because of this. I will say the ugly things first, whoever wants to
I have disgraced my grandma and will be severely punished if I go back."
Xiaoqian and Xiaoqing looked at each other. They had been working under Grandma Shu for a while, and they had never seen Grandma Shu so serious.
Xiaoqian was a little better. She was the daughter of an official family and knew a little about the Ning Dynasty.
Xiaoqing is far behind. She is just the daughter of a small family. She was raped and killed by bandits before she died. Once she turned into a ghost, she killed countless people. If she killed more people, she would naturally have no regard for the Daning Dynasty.
Afraid.
"Grandma, you have boundless magic power and vast supernatural powers. Aren't you just a royal guard? How can you be so cautious?"
"What do you know? If the Ning Dynasty was so miserable, wouldn't it be possible to change the dynasty long ago?"
Grandma Shu looked at Xiaoqing with disgust, then turned to look at Xiaoqian and said: "Xiaoqian, you must not imitate Xiaoqing. She has short-sightedness and will be taken in at any time. You have to know
, the Three Emperors will rule the world, and humanity will prosper, it is not as simple as words say, even those of us who are evil spirits must have fear in our hearts."
"Yes, grandma."
Xiaoqian quickly lowered her head and said: "Grandma, don't keep the guests waiting. Let's go up quickly."
"Well, you are still sensible. If it weren't for the sake of pleasing that old ghost, grandma would really be reluctant to marry you off."
After Grandma Shu finished speaking, she shook her head and sighed, then took Xiaoqian's hand and walked towards the attic.
Seeing the two people's intimate movements, Xiaoqing's face turned pale with jealousy, and she said with hatred: "Why are you so pretentious? I'm not going to marry the old demon from Montenegro. Let's see if you can smile on the wedding day."
Although Xiaoqing's voice was low, there were two people present who heard it clearly. One was Grandma Shu who had not gone far, and the other was Wang Xu who was standing on the second floor.
Wang Xu stood in front of the window sill on the second floor, looking at the three people who walked in, and thought to himself: "Old Black Mountain demon, I hope we don't involve him, this guy is very troublesome!"
