Chapter 147: The moon is like the beginning of the day and the sky is twilight
The setting sun completely submerged under the horizon, and a desolate atmosphere suddenly appeared between the sky and the earth. However, there was a quiet and refreshing atmosphere in the high mountains of Sanqing Mountain. It was indeed an unparalleled blessed place that was free from the hustle and bustle. The silence all around was extraordinary and cold.
The breath is still lingering with a spiritual energy that is heart-warming.
Ye Yinfeng and the fat Taoist priest started walking very hastily, but later they put down their steps and began to walk slowly, winding along the stone steps above Tianmen Peak. The quiet mountain path was long, narrow and
It is rugged, with rugged rocks rising abruptly on both sides, and there are even lingering snow on a few green pines that have not melted completely, giving off a dazzling light in the afterglow of dusk.
The cold air was coming from all directions, and the mountain was trembling with coldness at this moment, but what they felt was a bit more bone-chilling coolness, as well as the abundant spiritual energy.
As Li Xiaoyao walked up the road, he kept admiring the beautiful scenery at dusk around him. He walked very slowly, as if he did it intentionally.
"It would be a pity not to enjoy such a beautiful scenery." Li Xiaoyao hissed, seeming to teach Ye Yinfeng a lesson, but his small eyes that kept wandering betrayed him, making Ye Yinfeng feel endless sorrow.
disdain.
The two of them walked up the mountain trail from the bottom of Tiantianmen Peak for more than an hour. When they reached the end of the stone steps, it was already dark.
The end of the stone steps is like a large square. The dark square is empty, and the bluestones are unevenly trampled into the ground. A huge black shadow stands suddenly in front, and that is Sanqing, the owner of Sanqing Mountain.
View.
In the darkness, the mottled building group exudes a strange atmosphere, and the empty glazed tiles reflect the twinkling light of the stars in the starry sky, with dots as dense as hemp and drops as clear as jade.
When the magnificent Sanqing Temple stood in the center of the large square, Ye Yinfeng couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Everything he could see in front of him was a group of buildings scattered high and low. Those buildings were located in a
Come to the center of the majestic and majestic peak.
In the distance, there is a clear mist like white gauze, and three peaks rising up into the sky are hidden in the curling clouds and mist. The stars are shining like strands, shining on the three peaks like strands, making them look like temples on earth.
While sighing at the extraordinaryness of Sanqing Temple, he was also under a lot of pressure. Could he and the fat Taoist priest be able to defend such a behemoth? This trip must have been like falling into a dragon's den, but he did not regret it, he must
Find out the truth behind the murder of that sloppy old man.
Li Xiaoyao, on the other hand, twisted his fat body and kept walking in the square with strange steps, like striding in the courtyard, as if he was very familiar with it, and did not care at all about the majestic Sanqing Temple.
There was not a trace of fear on the fat face. On the contrary, there was an extremely excited expression, but more of it still looked a little wretched.
"Sanqing Mountain is so beautiful, and there are treasures everywhere. Junior brother, be careful and follow your fat senior brother to find the treasures." Li Xiaoyao put one hand on his waist and waved the other hand. This is not the demeanor of a Taoist priest. He is simply a scholar.
Rebuke Fang Qiu's ambition.
How could Ye Yinfeng believe this fat Taoist priest who spoke freely? He rolled his eyes and ignored him, thinking about how to sneak into the Sanqing Temple. That day, there were two people at the foot of Menfeng who were hit by him.
The dizzy Taoist priest may not wake up for a while. But the two people have not returned to the temple to recover, which will inevitably make people in the Taoist temple suspicious.
Just when he was thinking about it, the deep and awe-inspiring Taoist temple door suddenly opened, and four figures in gray robes walked out. The aura of those four figures was many times stronger than that of the Taoist priests who had just come down the mountain to guard the mountain.
I glanced with both eyes and found Ye Yinfeng and two people standing in the center of the square.
"Who is so bold to trespass into the important area of Sanqing Mountain?" One of them shouted loudly, which made Li Xiaoyao's fat face startled, and he looked at the four figures rushing out from the gate of the Taoist temple in surprise.
The four figures swayed slightly and came to the two people in an instant. At the same time, they surrounded them. An astonishing aura gushed out from their bodies like a tide, and they looked at them with eager eyes. The person who made the sound seemed to be worried about this.
The leader of the four Taoist priests, and the other three all followed his instructions.
Ye Yinfeng frowned lightly and looked at the four comers. He felt that the cultivation bases of these four people were all in the inner strength stage and had not reached the innate realm. He was relieved. As long as these four people did not reach the innate realm, he
You won't be afraid, not to mention that there is a fat Taoist priest Li Xiaoyao who hides his secret.
"Hey, we are all members of the Taoist sect, why should we be aggressive? I also saw the beautiful scenery of Sanqing Mountain and came here accidentally to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Fellow Taoists, we are all our own people, there is no need to be like this."
Li Xiaoyao rolled his eyes, a flattering and obscene smile appeared on his fat face, and said to the visitor.
"Oh, I wonder which Taoist temple this fellow Taoist comes from." The face of the Taoist priest who had just begun to scold him softened, and there was also a look of surprise on his face. The fat young man opposite was indeed wearing a wide trousers.
Scattered oil stains can be seen everywhere on the gray Taoist robe. However, the age of this fat Taoist priest is unbelievable. The childishness on his face that has not yet completely taken off is completely inconsistent with his old-fashioned temperament.
The man turned his attention to Ye Yinfeng next to Li Xiaoyao, and was also shocked. This young man was only about fifteen or sixteen years old. He was dressed in a blue shirt and carried a dark and simple long sword on his back. Jun'an's tall and straight body was just like his
The long sword behind his back was about to burst out of its sheath. However, there was no movement of breath in this young man's body, and his whole body was as calm as a pool of water, which made people feel very comfortable. Such a young boy behaved so rudely
With a somewhat elegant temperament, his handsome face showed a resolute and extraordinary look. Seeing their arrival, the young man did not show the slightest trace of panic, and remained calm and composed.
The Taoist priest couldn't help but secretly admire what a young man he was. Then he turned his attention to the fat Taoist priest.
The four people's eyes were focused on the fat Taoist priest Li Xiaoyao at the same time, which made Li Xiaoyao feel speechless for a while. Because Li Xiaoyao did not emit any fluctuations of true energy at this moment, but was like an ordinary person without any aura.
Although the four of them felt that Ye Yinfeng's elegant and ethereal temperament was extraordinary, they were also members of the Taoist sect, so they naturally ignored Ye Yinfeng.
The fat Taoist priest was wearing a shabby Taoist robe, and his cynical smile made the four people feel bored. However, there was a vaguely familiar temperament in the fat Taoist priest's behavior, and they couldn't say what it was for the moment.
Come.
"That, that, this Tao does not have a fixed place for practice. This Tao is home all over the world, and the world between heaven and earth is the place for its practice." Li Xiaoyao replied with a flattering smile. At the same time, he couldn't help but wink at Ye Yinfeng. On the side
Ye Yinfeng didn't care, his eyes were shining brightly as he looked at the visitor.
The four Taoist priests were in uniform. They were about twenty-five or six years old. Each of them held a whisk in their hands and each had a sword on their back. They behaved like Taoist immortals, and there was an awe-inspiring look between their brows.
His righteousness and proud demeanor are indeed Taoist behaviors based on asceticism.
"This fellow Taoist is really good at joking. Since it is inconvenient for fellow Taoist to reveal it, Pindao and others will not force it. Please go down the mountain quickly. We are the ones who watch the night of this mountain tonight, and we have received the instructions from the master.
"In the near future, no one else is allowed to enter this important place. I hope you will forgive me, please."
After the Taoist priest finished speaking, he waved his fly whisk and bowed to them, and said with a calm expression. At the same time, his whole body exuded an unquestionable aura that made people feel irresistible.
"Goodbye, we are all from the same sect. Since we are here, it is fate, right? We Taoists are tolerant, so why bother to embarrass people from the same sect." Li Xiaoyao said to the Taoist priest with a fearful look on his face.
Although he was somewhat complimentary, his behavior was still so cynical.
"Brother, why bother talking nonsense with these two guys? Why don't you just drive them down the mountain?" The other Taoist priest with a wretched look and frivolous eyes couldn't stand it anymore and shouted loudly. In his eyes, these two people
The young boy must have sneaked up the mountain by mistake, otherwise they would have been intercepted by the disciple guarding the mountain long before that day's gate peak.
"Ah, I don't know what to call this fellow Taoist. After all, I am also the Taoist ancestor of Sanqing with you. How can you be so cruel to the people of this sect."
When Li Xiaoyao heard this, he immediately started yelling angrily, his fat face flushed red with anger, and his chubby fingers pointed at the rude Taoist priest without scruples. At the same time, he looked extremely angry.
His tone was aggrieved, but his little eyes that kept wandering around showed no sign of any grievance he had suffered.
"Humph, you are so brazen. You, a little fat boy, a wild boy who doesn't know where you come from, dare to pretend to be a member of my Taoist sect. Who knows where you, a fat boy, stole an unwanted Taoist robe and put it on you?
I think you are from my Taoist sect. My senior brother has been polite enough to you, so you should get down the mountain as soon as you know what you are doing."
The Taoist priest with a wretched face couldn't help but sneer at him, his eyes full of contempt couldn't help but glance at the worn Taoist robe on the fat Taoist priest's body.
"Ah, you are so awesome that you dare to say that your Taoist master is not a member of the Taoist sect. You also dare to slander the origin of this Taoist master and ask your temple master to come out. This Taoist master wants him to reason with you."
When Li Xiaoyao heard this, he immediately became furious. He jumped three feet high and waved his fat hands in the air. His fat face turned even redder.
"You are worthy of seeing our temple master. I say fat boy, hurry down the mountain, otherwise my four brothers and sisters will throw you down the mountain."
The Taoist priest snorted and retorted disdainfully, with such a look of disdain on his face that even Ye Yinfeng felt the urge to beat him up.
But he didn't want to take action so early yet. He just looked at each other coldly to see how the fat Taoist priest would respond. He didn't believe that Li Xiaoyao came here just to argue with these four Taoist priests. The other party must have other plans.
.
The Taoist priest who had just started to speak and the other two Taoist priests were watching from the sidelines without saying a word. It was obvious that the Taoist priest who had just started to speak was the leader among them. And the one who was talking to Li Xiaoyao
The Taoist priest with a wretched face wanted to show off in front of his senior brothers.
"Fellow Taoist, aren't the four of you bullying the few with more? Besides, how can the two of us be the opponents of you four fellow Taoists? As for the sky is already dark at this moment, if we two go down the mountain at this time, what will happen if we encounter a ferocious beast?
Or bad people or the like, their lives are at stake, monks are all compassionate, how can this fellow Taoist still be so cruel to people of the same sect?",
Li Xiaoyao said with a sad look on his face. He just raised the tone of the previous sentence a little bit, but said the following words very calmly. His two little eyeballs kept rolling around. I don't know what he was thinking.
"Hmph, do you still need the four of us brothers to deal with you two little brats? I can harass you and kick you down the mountain alone." The Taoist priest only heard the first half of what Li Xiaoyao said, and the second half.
Part of it was completely ignored by him, and he said angrily with a look of pride and disdain on his face.
"I said to this fellow Taoist, please don't talk nonsense. Although the two of us are not very proficient in martial arts, we are still quite capable in our hands and feet. I don't know how this fellow Taoist is going to defeat me.
He was kicked down the mountain." Li Xiaoyao's cunning eyes flashed, and he deliberately belittled himself to lure the Taoist priest into taking the bait.
It's just that the Taoist priest in charge had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
When Ye Yinfeng heard the fat man's words, he still didn't know what he was planning. He quickly moved his body a few steps back, a few steps away from the fat Taoist priest.
Seeing his behavior, the other three Taoist priests surrounding them couldn't help but look puzzled. They couldn't figure out what these two weird people were doing. One of them was frothing and arguing with the wretched Taoist priest, and
The other one took a few steps away from his companion.
Li Xiaoyao didn't notice Ye Yinfeng's actions at all. He was staring at the wretched Taoist priest with angry eyes, but he was also happy in his heart. This Taoist priest was really easy to use. These words hit him hard.
’s lower feelings.
As expected, the wretched Taoist priest said arrogantly: "How to kick you down the mountain, you don't need to worry about this little brat. The last warning is whether you will go down the mountain obediently or the Taoist will kick you down the mountain."
"
When Li Xiaoyao heard this, a sharp light suddenly shot out from his eyes that were so small that they were almost invisible.
The other two Taoist priests did not notice the sharp light in his eyes at all. Only the leading Taoist priest secretly caught this scene, and a faint uneasiness suddenly rose in his heart. He wanted to stop the wretched Taoist priest.
, only to find that it was too late.
Because a strange smile suddenly appeared on Li Xiaoyao's fat face, and then he said to the Taoist priest in a deep voice: "How about we make a bet. If you kick us down the mountain, we will never set foot in Sanqing Mountain in our lifetime.
If this fellow Taoist can't do it, then what should I do?"
"What's the point of making a bet? If you can't do it this way, I'll let you two wander around in Sanqing Mountain and stay as long as you want. How about that?"
"Okay, just a word from a gentleman."
"It's hard to chase a horse."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xiaoyao grabbed his right hand, but found that his grasp was empty. Then he turned around and saw Ye Yinfeng looking at him with a proud smile.
When did this kid learn to be smart? When Li Xiaoyao let out a long sigh, all the energy in his body surged out like sea water.
There was silence all around, the crescent moon was rising, the stars were shining like stars, and the dusk was turning into mist.
