Volume 2: Female Corpse in Monk's Clothes Chapter 136 Wanted Criminal
Although Xu Zun had never seen Luo Yu in person, his appearance had been engraved in his mind through the portrait and he would not make a mistake.
It was actually him! ! ?
In an instant, Xu Zun felt his heart beating faster and his spirit became excited.
It is really unexpected that this wanted criminal in the whole state is hiding in the Moon-Watching Tower of Qinglan Temple!
This has now confirmed that Qinglan Temple is the upstream of Chongtian Temple.
The head of Qinglan Temple is the Marquis's mother, so...
While Xu Zun was excited, Huo Anu also felt that this man looked familiar, so she wanted to discuss it with Xu Zun in a low voice.
Xu Zun was quick to cover her mouth and retreated back to the corridor with her.
At this moment, they were only a few meters away from Luo Yu. Since Luo Yu was able to kill Yu Yangzi and was highly valued by Qinglan Temple, his martial arts skills must be quite good.
Therefore, they could not make any noise so as not to be noticed.
oh……
While covering Huo Anu's mouth, Xu Zun realized another thing. No wonder the Moon-Watching Tower was so heavily guarded!
It turns out that the biggest secret of Qinglan Temple is hidden in this pagoda!
Could this be considered a lucky coincidence?
Restraining his inner excitement and keeping quiet for a few seconds, Xu Zun quietly peeked in again.
But after watching for a while, Luo Yu seemed to lose interest and turned around and disappeared on the other side of the corridor.
call……
Xu Zun then let go and said to Huo Anu: "That person is Luo Yu!"
"Ah?" Huo Anu's eyes widened. "No wonder he looks so familiar! Why is it him?"
Xu Zun looked at the place where Luo Yu disappeared, and his heart was in a dilemma.
As a result, their situation was obviously extremely dangerous.
Once discovered, it would be a fatal disaster!
So Xu Zun patted Huo Anu on the shoulder, motioning her to follow him and evacuate first while he thought of a solution.
"Sir," Huo Anu, who was skilled and courageous, was obviously unconvinced, "What if we can knock Luo Yu out and take him out?"
Xu Zun waved his hand: "We can't take this risk, let's go out first!"
As a result, before Xu Zun finished his words, the sound of footsteps was heard downstairs again, and it was obvious that someone was going upstairs.
Oops!
Looking at the approaching figure downstairs, Xu Zun and the others could only look up.
But unexpectedly, there were people coming down from upstairs and they were caught in the middle.
"Walk!"
In desperation, Xu Zun had to point in the direction where Luo Yu disappeared and retreat there with Huo Anu.
When passing by the window on the way, I saw that the fire in the woodshed opposite had been basically under control. Once the flames were extinguished, Qinglan Temple would be blocked and on guard, and it would be even more difficult to get out at that time.
Turning around another corridor and entering the interior of the pagoda, Huo Anu was worried that Luo Yu was still there, so he raised his iron umbrella and prepared to attack.
However, when they turned in, they didn't see anyone.
Inside was a pavilion housing a statue of the deity, and it was surrounded by screens with calligraphy and paintings, so that it was almost in plain view.
"Hey?" Huo Anu turned around quickly and wondered, "There is no other exit? Where are the people?"
"Secret room, there must be a secret room!" Xu Zun recalled the shape of the pagoda and felt that the actual area of each floor was much larger than this pavilion.
Huo Anu hurriedly searched everywhere, while Xu Zun judged from the structure that if there was a secret passage, it must be on the side of the statue.
So he came to the statue and started touching around. As soon as he touched the incense burner on the shrine, he immediately felt something strange.
The incense burner could not be lifted, so he turned it to the right. Immediately, a metallic sound was heard from behind the statue, and then a gap appeared.
"You?" Huo Anu looked at Xu Zun in disbelief, "Have you been here before?"
Xu Zun said to himself, if you watched more TV dramas, you would definitely be able to find it better than me.
Just then, footsteps were heard outside. The two did not dare to delay and went straight into the gap.
The knob installed on the incense burner actually has a timing function. As soon as Xu Zun and the others entered, the gap closed automatically.
Behind the gap was a hallway with candles lit. Before the two could react, they bumped into someone head-on.
This person seemed to have heard the noise and quickly came over to check.
Unexpectedly, this was also a man dressed as a Taoist priest, but he was not that Luo Yu!
I can’t believe that there are so many men hiding in Qinglan Temple!
"Hey, what are you doing here?"
This man was tall and strong, looked fierce, and he questioned Xu Zun and the other two in person.
Huo Anu thought he had been exposed and immediately wanted to throw out his iron umbrella to attack, but was held down by Xu Zun from behind.
"There's a fire outside," Xu Zun pinched his nose and imitated a woman's voice, "We came here to check it out!"
"Check?" The Taoist frowned, but he didn't hear anything unusual in Xu Zun's voice, nor did he realize that Xu Zun was a man. "It's okay, it's okay here, let's go!"
"We... um..." Huo Anu finally came to his senses and pointed inside, "We received an order to go in and take a look to make sure everything is alright!"
"Wow," the Taoist priest took a closer look at Huo Anu, "Why do you look like a foreign woman?"
Huo Anu ignored him and walked inside, while Xu Zun followed her with his head down.
" Hey, hey, hey ? I told you that everything is fine here! Have you forgotten the Dao Zun's rules? Get out now!"
As he said this, the Taoist priest stretched out his hand to stop Huo Anu.
Seeing that he couldn't get away with it, Xu Zun had to pat Huo Anu from behind, then suddenly revealed his big face and gave the Taoist priest a silly grin that only a master can give!
“Hahaha…”
The Taoist priest was frightened when he suddenly saw such a big face.
Huo Anu understood what he meant, and immediately swung out his iron umbrella, directly hanging it on the man's face. If he could hit it, he would definitely faint!
However, the Taoist reacted quickly, and although he was severely frightened by Xu Zun, he still raised his arm to block the iron umbrella by instinct!
However, Huo Anu's power was too strong. The iron umbrella hit the Taoist's arm together, causing the back of the Taoist's head to hit the wall, making him dizzy.
Xu Zun immediately went over and covered his mouth to prevent him from shouting.
“Wuwuwu…”
The Taoist struggled hard, but Huo Anu didn't give him another chance. He first punched him in the abdomen, then chopped him in the back with a knife, knocking him to the ground and making him unable to move...
"Quick!" As soon as the man fainted, Xu Zun heard a metallic sound coming from outside, and immediately signaled to Huo Anu, "Open the umbrella and hide behind!"
"What?"
Huo Anu was stunned. When he saw Xu Zun had dragged the unconscious Taoist priest to the deep part and pulled off his Taoist hat, he understood what Xu Zun meant.
She quickly opened the iron umbrella and covered herself and the unconscious Taoist priest inside.
At the same time, the secret door was opened and footsteps were heard outside, obviously someone was about to come in.
Xu Zun quickly blew out a candle, making the light even darker. He then put the Taoist hat on his head, and while he was still tilting his head, two Taoist nuns came in hurriedly.
"You..." Xu Zun hurriedly imitated the Taoist priest and asked, "What are you doing here?"
With a turban on his head, Xu Zun couldn't put on the Taoist hat properly, so he could only hold the hat with one hand.
The female Taoist nun quickly clasped her fingers together, performed the Xuandao ceremony, and said, "Brother, is everything okay here? There's a fire outside, and the altar master is worried that thieves will take the opportunity to break in!"
"It's okay," Xu Zun waved his hand and said, "You guys go out!"
"This..." The two Taoist nuns looked inside, but because of the dim light, they could not see anything.
"What?" Xu Zun shouted impatiently, "Have you forgotten the Dao Zun's rules? Get out now!"
"yes!"
The two nuns had no choice but to turn around and pull a chain, and the secret door opened, and the two left one after another.
Wow...
Xu Zun was still holding his hat with one hand, and he felt that his body was soaked with sweat...
