A relatively large branch of the Ice and Snow Temple is located in the British capital. There are as many as a hundred priests in it, but most of them are white-robed priests, and there are only a few dozen red-robed priests.
This temple has a very high reputation in the local area. Tens of thousands of people go there to pray every day, which is no different from a pilgrimage.
The Ice and Snow Temple pays a very large amount of tax to the government every year, so it is deeply protected by the local officials.
The Empire on which the sun never sets has long lost its former glory. Factors such as an aging population, economic depression and other factors are causing this ancient country to decline day by day!
Therefore, taxes from the Holy See have become a large amount of official income.
And the Ice and Snow Temple branch lives up to expectations. With its unique business philosophy and reputation for responding to requests, it has a great say in the Taoist sects of the surrounding major countries.
Naturally, China would pay close attention to such an important place, so some undercover agents were arranged here, as well as some Taoist priests traveling outside.
As soon as Xiao Yu and the others arrived in England, they contacted the local Taoist priest and agreed on a meeting place.
The other party is an experienced Taoist, but he is not really Chinese, but a migrant with British nationality.
However, even though he has British nationality, he is still ostracized in the local Taoism, so his life is not very good now, and he makes a living by leading Chinese tour groups.
However, that is what outsiders see on the surface. In fact, the other party is very capable, otherwise he would not be in such a dangerous place.
The location agreed upon by both parties was in a park. On this day, Xiao Yu, wearing a mask, took Wang Yanfeng to the park to meet him, hoping to find out something different.
"Master, when I was in Russia, I heard Senior Werewolf say that China is very big and very ancient. It is called the ancestor of Xuanmen and is the most powerful place among all Xuanmen. Is that really the case?"
Sitting on a bench under the tree in the park, Wang Yanfeng blinked his big eyes and looked at Xiao Yu with a puzzled look on his face.
There are many scenes like this in the park, and most people passing by will regard them as a father and son going out to play.
"I don't know who is the most powerful, but the country where the master is located does have the title of the ancestor of Xuanmen."
Xiao Yu answered the other party with a smile.
"But the elders said that China doesn't like fair-skinned children like me because we invaded China and they hated us. Master, do you hate Xiaofeng?"
Wang Yanfeng looked at Xiao Yu with an urgent but frightened expression on his face.
Xiao Yu patted Wang Yanfeng's head dotingly, then leaned on the seat, thinking why the werewolf elder would say this to a child?
Could it be that you want to tell the other party not to go to China, or that you want to cultivate hostility in your children from an early age?
"The Disgrace of the Eight Kingdoms did happen in history, but it was all done by warlords and has nothing to do with you.
The Chinese people are very kind, and they will not blame you. Moreover, without the shame of the Eight Kingdoms, China would not be so powerful.
Therefore, everything has pros and cons, and no one can explain clearly. As the road evolves, we are all just a grain of sand in the world. Only by making ourselves stronger can we not drift with the tide when the storm is about to come.
There is an idiom in China, which is to be prepared for danger in times of peace. You will understand it when you go to school in China.
If the master hates you, he won't keep you around, don't you think so?"
Xiao Yu smiled and explained a few words to the other party, but he didn't know if the other party could understand it.
Wang Yanfeng really didn't understand it well because he didn't have that much Chinese language knowledge in his language system, but Xiao Yu said he didn't hate him, so he understood.
"Master, I will definitely study hard and practice well, and when I grow up, I will protect the master."
Wang Yanfeng's little face was full of determination, and at this moment he seemed to be full of hope for the future.
In the distance, a somewhat sloppily dressed old man was walking towards us, carrying a woven bag and looking around, looking a little wretched.
But as soon as the other party appeared in the distance, Xiao Yu noticed it, because the other party's steps were very light, as if he was stepping on cotton, and there was no sound at all. This was not like the physical movements that an old man should do.
When Xiao Yu looked over, an old man also looked over, and both of them nodded in unison.
"Xiao Feng, you go over there to play. Master has something to tell some grandpa."
"good..."
Although Xiaofeng is twelve years old, he is very sensible, probably because he has been tempered under the pressure of survival for a long time, so he is not afraid in any environment.
Watching Wang Yanfeng walk away, Xiao Yu stood up and made an invitation gesture to the old man. The old man did not hesitate, strode over and sat next to him.
"Fellow Taoist Mu, the way you dress is not in direct proportion to your cultivation level!"
Xiao Yu glanced around the other party and teased with a smile.
On the second floor of Gu Yi, although this cultivation level is not very high, it is much better than ordinary Taoist disciples.
But now I dress up like an old man who picks up garbage. It really loses my identity.
"Senior is laughing at me. I'm just a Taoist disciple sent out from abroad. I have no worries and no one knows me. It doesn't matter if I'm dressed like this.
In the transmission note that senior sent me yesterday, I have written down all the things that I was asked to investigate. Senior can take it back for review."
The old man took out a yellowed book from his arms, put it next to him, and then Xiao Yu put it into the Taoist vessel.
"Senior, the Ice and Snow Temple branch here also has a hidden place, and that is in Iceland.
There is an ice and snow prison in Iceland, where many Taoist Taoists are imprisoned. After my inquiries, I found out that there are also my Taoist disciples inside.
Senior, if you have other helpers, you can go there and have a look. If you can rescue him, it will be regarded as a meritorious service to the Taoist sect."
The old man seemed to be afraid of being exposed, so he looked a little cunning and kept looking around.
"Ice and Snow Prison, this is the first time I've heard of it. How many people are there in China?"
Mortals have mortal prisons, and Xuanmen people have prisons for Xuanmen people. However, Xiao Yu has never heard of it in China.
But the Xuanmen Court, he seemed to have heard about it once somewhere, but he had long forgotten it now.
"I don't know, I just talked with a fisherman who delivered food to the prison, and he said this casually.
Most of the Taoists imprisoned in the Ice and Snow Temple are very strong, so seniors must assess the situation and not enter hastily, lest their lives be in danger."
An hour later, Mu Taoren said goodbye and left, but left a lot of useful information for Xiao Yu.
The most important thing is the ice and snow prison. Since the other party dares to imprison Chinese Taoists, other Xuanmen disciples must be among them.
And what makes Xiao Yu puzzled is why many Taoist sects have known about this kind of thing, but they haven't done anything about it. Do they all have some scruples?
In order to investigate this matter clearly, Xiao Yu planned to go there personally at night. Iceland is located in the Arctic Ocean and is very close to their goal. If they start from somewhere, it will definitely be a shortcut.
