Volume 2: World of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio Chapter 2 Lanruo Temple, Wutong God
Lanruo Temple!
If it was just Guobei County, Jiale would still have doubts, but after seeing Lanruo Temple, Jiale was completely sure where it was.
Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio!
Apart from the Lanruo Temple in Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, Jiale had never seen such a coincidence. However, he needed to investigate whether it was true or not.
Guobei County is also one of the nine counties in Jinling County. It is not far from Jinhua County. Just arrange someone to investigate. With the strength of the Sun family, it is still easy to do.
"Zhang Long, come here."
In the yard, Zhang Long hurried over when he heard Jiale's call. Perhaps because of what happened in Qianyun Mountain before, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu were a little afraid that Jiale would suddenly pursue them, so they were particularly attentive during this period.
"Does Guobei County know?"
Zhang Long was a little confused when he heard this. The nine counties of Jinhua were not a big place, so how could he not know? However, since the young master asked, he answered, "Of course I know. Young master, you don't know that my uncle's daughter married in Guobei County, and I went there when she got married."
Isn’t my uncle’s daughter my cousin? This Zhang Long is really good at getting around things.
"Did you know that there is a Lanruo Temple in Guobei County?"
Lanruo Temple!
Zhang Long nodded and said, "Master, I know about Lanruo Temple. My uncle's daughter married there three years ago. When I attended the wedding, many locals mentioned Lanruo Temple. They said that the monks there are really capable and the Bodhisattvas there are very powerful."
Hmm! It's still a famous temple! It's not dilapidated yet! Could it be Liao Zhai?
Jiale was a little confused, and after thinking about it, he decided to let Zhang Long go.
"Go to Guobei County and find out about the situation of Lanruo Temple for me, young master."
Zhang Long naturally agreed immediately after hearing this. This opportunity to travel on public funds doesn't come often, so of course he had to agree. It also allowed him to visit his uncle's daughter and visit relatives.
"Young Master, you want to go and pray, right? Yes, the anniversary of the master's death is coming soon. The Lanruo Temple is indeed very spiritual. Maybe it can pray for the master to rest in peace in the underworld."
Death anniversary!
Jiale then remembered that according to Sun Yan's memory, the anniversary of Sun Yan's father's death would be in more than half a month.
"Go quickly and come back quickly, ride on horseback."
After giving instructions, Jiale attached a paper figure behind Zhang Long when he left. He wanted to see if this Lanruo Temple was what he imagined.
In the past half month, Jiale has learned a lot about this new world.
Combining Sun Yan's memory with what the housekeeper Lin Ting said, we also learned the general situation of Dali. Dali has been established for three hundred years.
Generally speaking, the longer a dynasty lasts, the more likely it is that the emperor will make mistakes, and Dali is no exception.
It is easy to conquer a country, but difficult to keep it.
The current Emperor of Dali is called Zhao Zhen. He is already 57 years old. He succeeded to the throne at the age of 19 and has been in power for 38 years. He has done all kinds of absurd things. It is only because Dali has a strong foundation that it has not been destroyed until now, which is not easy.
When Zhao Zhen first came to power, things were fine. He was an ambitious man. There were many nomadic tribes and pirates all around Dali. Zhao Zhen was ambitious and wanted to send troops to destroy all these nomadic tribes and pirates. However, he failed to employ the right people and never won a battle. A lot of money and grain were withheld by corrupt officials, making the people miserable and the border even worse.
When Zhao Zhen saw that something was wrong, he gave up the idea of conquering the border.
A few years later, he began to rectify the civil administration. Originally, Dali implemented the imperial examination system, which was held every three years. Zhao Zhen was afraid of losing talented people from the people, so he held it only once a year. As a result, he still used poor people, there was corruption in the examination room, and there were countless cases of selling official positions. As a result, the officialdom of Dali was a mess. To this day, most of the officialdom of Dali is filled with good-for-nothings.
However, Zhao Zhen did not take it seriously and thought he was capable of both civil and military affairs.
He felt that he had laid a solid foundation for the next generation. According to him, he had made so many contributions to Dali, so he should enjoy himself.
The practice of recruiting beautiful girls every year started when they were thirty years old. Up to now, there have been twenty-seven years, with one thousand beautiful girls recruited every year. There are already twenty-seven thousand beautiful girls gathered in the palace. This does not include the concubines Zhao Zhen had taken in before, as well as those left behind by his father and grandfather. If all the women in the palace are added up, the number would have to be over fifty thousand.
It is said that Zhao Zhen has sex with different women every day, but this requires skills. In the past two years, Zhao Zhen felt that he was unable to do so, so he recruited monks and Taoists from all over the world to enter the palace to make elixirs. It is said that a monk really fulfilled Zhao Zhen's dream of having sex with women every night. The emperor was so pleased that Zhao Zhen directly appointed the monk as the imperial teacher.
Cihang saves all!
This imperial teacher was called Cihang Pudu. When Jiale saw this name, his guess deepened.
With a monk serving as the national teacher, the whole of Dali began to value monks more than Taoism. Many Taoist temples in the world collapsed, while Buddhist temples occupied land on a large scale.
After knowing all this, Jiale was fully aware that beneath the prosperity of Dali, the city was already on the verge of collapse.
In the past two years, an opposition force has emerged in the south, called the White Lotus Sect. They worship the Mother of No Birth and their slogan is: Mother of No Birth, Home of True Vacuum. Their influence is huge. The imperial court has already suppressed them many times, but the result is that the more they suppress them, the stronger the White Lotus Sect becomes. Now, Jiaozhou, one of the four southern states, has been completely taken over by the White Lotus Sect. The decrees of Dali do not enter Jiaozhou, and the people of Jiaozhou all believe in the White Lotus Sect.
Once the White Lotus Sect has truly established a solid foundation, it may expand towards Yangzhou, Jingzhou and Yizhou.
It is also not uncommon to see monsters and ghosts among the people. It is true that when a country is about to fall into chaos, monsters will surely appear.
However, seeing that Dali was in such chaos and there seemed to be quite a few monsters and demons, Jiale felt relieved. He was not afraid of too many monsters and demons, but too few. If there were too few, where would he get the energy beads? Let's just make trouble, and when his cultivation level recovered, they would all be harvested in one wave.
night.
Jiale was practicing in the house. After half a month of practice, Jiale had already cleared a lot of space-time energy crystals, and his cultivation had also recovered a little. Now he had reached the Qi Refining level.
This world has two ways, civil and martial. The civil way is hard to explain, but there are stories of great Confucian scholars who can defeat demons with a single word. Compared to the vagueness of the civil way, the martial way is very prosperous, and there are many martial arts spread among the people. Although they are controlled by wealthy families and martial arts schools, there are indeed many people who practice martial arts.
The acquired realm, the innate realm, and the master realm correspond to the essence refining realm, the qi transformation realm, and the qi refining realm. Although there are not many famous masters in Dali, there are still a few.
There is an organization in the imperial court called Jinyiwei, which can not only monitor the court but also connect with the martial arts world, and it has the largest number of martial arts masters.
When Jiale heard about the Imperial Guard, he couldn't help but think of a captain who was said to be a mortal who could rival gods, but he didn't know if such a person really existed.
call!
The window of the house suddenly opened. Jiale seemed to sense something and came out of his practice. Feeling something strange in the house, he couldn't help but laugh secretly. He hadn't gone to look for these monsters yet, but they came to him first.
“Wuwuwu…”
Outside the window, there were cries of crying. Even though it was crying, it made people think that there was a pretty girl wandering outside the window.
Jiale stood up, walked to the window and looked down.
A pitiful face with tears in her eyes appeared in front of Jiale. As if she heard Jiale's footsteps, the girl raised her head and their eyes met. She was extremely shy and wanted to say something but hesitated. If an ordinary person saw this, he would definitely not be able to control himself.
"Girl, why are you crying here in the dead of night?"
When the girl heard Jiale talking, tears became more abundant on her face and she answered with sobs.
"I am a newly hired maid in the mansion. Today is my mother's death anniversary. I miss her so much that I can't bear it. I'm sorry for disturbing your sleep, my dear. Please forgive me."
As she spoke, the girl exhaled orchids from her mouth, which turned out to be streams of pink gas that blew towards Jiale.
When it came to reprimanding, her shoulders were white and she looked like she wanted Jia Le to reprimand her severely.
Seeing this, Jiale sighed in his heart. He had been talking about the many monsters and demons in Dali during the day, but he didn't expect to encounter one at night. Could it be that he really couldn't stand the nagging?
How could Jiale refuse such a beautiful girl's kindness when she came to play with him so late at night?
The pink gas was the woman's trick. Jiale pretended to be fascinated by it, and then pity appeared on his face. He walked out of the door, took the woman's hand, comforted her softly, and invited the woman into the house to comfort her.
Before you know it, the whole room is already filled with pink gas, which makes you feel confused and disoriented.
"My dear!"
The woman's shy voice finally made Jiale no longer indifferent.
Time passes in the wind and rain.
But soon the woman felt something was wrong. She gained nothing, and did not get the yang energy she wanted.
The woman looked at Jiale in front of her, full of confusion. This was completely different from what she had encountered before.
An ominous premonition arose in the woman's heart, but she was still unwilling to believe it. Perhaps it was because of her physical condition, the woman comforted herself.
There was a set of tables and chairs in the room, and Jiale was sitting there, drinking tea and watching the show in front of him.
The woman's screams were too loud, and Jiale was afraid that it would get out and tarnish his reputation, so he directly added a soundproofing array. It turned out that there was actually a Jiale on the bed.
A trace of Jiale's spiritual thoughts was attached to the paper man, which made Jiale feel the same way and found it very interesting.
But how could a paper figure have yang energy and yang essence? This woman was doomed to be in vain. Instead, she had not yet discovered that most of her yin essence had been lost.
However, as her Yin|essence was lost, the woman gradually felt that something was wrong and she remembered to check her condition. It didn't matter that she checked herself, as she was too engrossed just now.
After all, having harmed so many men, none of them could be as capable as Jiale in front of him. Although he did not gain any yang energy or yang essence, he also invested a lot in a short period of time.
Now it seems that the man in front of her is not a simple person. Not only did she fail to steal the yang energy and yang essence, but she also lost most of the yin essence. If she had discovered it later, she would have lost everything here.
He knew that something was really wrong and quickly pushed Jiale away. Who are you?
Jiale drank the last sip of tea in the cup, and was discovered. There was no more fun to be had.
The paper man was slowly taken back. The paper man had just displayed the Yin-Yang Harmony, one of the six magical powers of the Maoshan Yin-Yang lineage. It was the first time for Jiale to use it, and it was very useful. However, Jiale was afraid that his body would be contaminated by the female monster, so he used the paper man instead. It must be said that although the magical powers of Maoshan were not as good as Jiale's three innate magical powers, they were also infinitely wonderful.
The female monster looked at the scene in front of her in doubt and confusion. The pink gas dissipated, and two Jia Le appeared in front of her. The room suddenly became cold.
The female monster didn't know that she was being tricked.
But he couldn't see through Jiale's depth. Too much stuff had flowed out and his body was very weak. For a moment, he was afraid to move. He just looked at Jiale vigilantly with a pitiful expression, hoping that Jiale would be able to understand.
Unfortunately, in Jiale's opinion, his skills are too shallow.
Under the eyes of the God of Ghosts, all demons and monsters must reveal themselves, and the chicken in front of him is no exception. However, what makes Jiale a little strange is that this chicken spirit is a little different from those he killed before, and it even has some incense smell on it.
If the smell of incense had not aroused Jiale's interest, he would have killed it long ago. Although Jiale had only recovered to the Qi Refining Realm, it was easy for him to kill a chicken spirit at the Demon Soldier Realm.
Now, the chicken essence whose magical power has been greatly reduced is even more under Ren Jiale's control.
After putting the paper man away, Jiale pointed at the chicken essence and used the Maoshan Sealing Technique to seal off all of its demonic power, making it unable to move.
Feeling his own condition, Ji Jing was even more terrified.
"Great Immortal, Great Immortal, I was wrong. I didn't recognize you as the real God. Please forgive me."
I am quite timid.
Jiale shook his head and asked, "Tell me, who asked you to come, and what's the matter with the incense smell on you?"
After being tormented and threatened by Jiale, Ji Jing dared not hide anything and started to tell the whole story like pouring beans.
It turns out that this chicken essence is the Wutong God near Jinhua County. It is usually worshipped by the people and has accumulated a lot of incense. However, absorbing incense will not harm people's growth, so it usually hooks up with young men at night and steals their yang energy and yang essence for cultivation. This time it chose Jiale, it was not a coincidence, it was an order.
After hearing what Ji Jing said, Jia Le narrowed his eyes.
The true fire of the sun wrinkled and turned the chicken essence directly into ashes. In Kunlun, there was an additional energy bead of the Qi refining level.
In such a feudal dynasty, those who could become officials must be extremely fortunate, or they must have the support of a powerful clan. The Sun family was no exception. This branch of the Sun family was considered the eldest branch, and there were two other branches of relatives. This time, it was the people from the second branch who had set their eyes on the Sun family's property. Now, Sun Yan was the only child left in the eldest branch. Once Sun Yan died, the property of the eldest branch would naturally be inherited by the second branch according to the rules, and then all would be theirs.
It’s a good plan, but unfortunately, I found the wrong person.
This chicken essence actually brought good news to Jiale.
The so-called Five Spirits are actually demons that roam the countryside and rape people's wives and daughters, and most of them are in the form of domestic animals.
Sun Yan was an ordinary man after all and didn't know about the demons, but Ji Jing knew about it. There were many Five-Power Gods in Jinling County. The Five-Power Gods could bring wealth and good luck. Some people who wanted to gain something without working would take the initiative to worship these Five-Power Gods and obtain their gifts. Who wouldn't want to get wealth without working?
Gradually, a wave of worshipping Wutong God arose throughout Yangzhou.
As time went by, there were more and more Five-Directional Gods in Yangzhou. However, as these Five-Directional Gods became more powerful, they became more and more unscrupulous. Cows, horses, pigs, sheep, chickens, and geese could all become gods. Supported by their animal nature, they were bound to cause harm. The males would rape other people's wives and daughters, and the females would seduce men, all to steal their yang energy and yin essence.
The Wutong God was so powerful that common people dared not provoke him. Even if a Wutong God took over their homes, they could only endure it. What's more, the Wutong God would return a lot of money to them afterwards. Well, it was a unique way of making money.
Nowadays, there are four Wutong Temples near Jinhua County alone, and no one knows how many there are in the whole Yangzhou. Jiale calculated that if they were all cleared out, they would be worth a lot of energy beads.
The most important thing is that with the energy beads, Jiale's speed in refining the space-time energy crystals can be accelerated, and he can also recover his cultivation one day earlier.
Seeing that it was still dark, Jiale disappeared into the night.
The Wutong Temple is not built in the county town. After all, he is a wild god. There is a city god in the city. How can he allow evil gods to lurk in his territory? Although the Shinto system of this world does not seem to be so strict, the Wutong gods who are just some demon soldiers dare not be too presumptuous.
After Jiale left the county town, he went straight to the Wutong Temple where the chicken essence was.
There are nine towns and eighty-one villages in Jinhua County. The Wutong Temple is not built in the county seat, nor in any village or town, but in the mountains where the official roads intersect.
The Wutong Temple where the chicken spirit is located is the closest to Jinhua County. It is occupied by two pig spirits and three chicken spirits. Well, these pig spirits and chicken spirits often play together. I have to say, your circle is really messy.
Seeing Wutong Temple from afar, Jiale slowly landed.
The Wutong Temple is not big, only a few dozen square meters, and there are five statues inside. One of the statues is already broken, and it is the chicken spirit's.
There are also some offerings in the temple.
However, there was not a single monster in the Wutong Temple at this time. Jiale couldn't help but sigh that the temple was really busy.
It was almost five o'clock in the morning. These five gods usually did things at night and returned to the temple before five o'clock.
Jiale simply waited in the temple.
"Brother, this is a pretty good guy , isn't it? I took you there because I thought you were my dear brother, but you were too careless. I was reluctant to put in any effort before, but you killed me right away."
"Ah, big brother, you've been complaining about such a small thing all the way. I was just a little excited because I saw that the stuff was good. Don't worry, next time I find good stuff, I will definitely think of you."
Two voices were heard outside the temple, and Jiale also ended his practice and looked outside.
Two burly figures walked straight into the temple, chatting among themselves, and didn't even notice Jia Le. It was not until they were about to return to the shrine that they discovered that the statue of the fifth sister had been replaced by a man.
The two of them couldn't help but change their expression.
"Who are you? Where did you take our fifth sister?"
Jiale looked at the two people in front of him and couldn't help shaking his head. They didn't look as good as Zhu Bajie, but they lived a more comfortable life than Zhu Bajie. Think about Zhu Bajie, when he was in heaven, he was the Marshal of Tianpeng, but because of the heavenly rules, he couldn't touch the two female fairies. He finally got drunk and attacked Chang'e, and was thrown down to the human world and became a pig demon.
Being a pig demon was also miserable. He fell in love with Miss Gao and worked as a farmhand in her house for many days. Now that he had gotten Miss Gao, he had not yet entered the bridal chamber.
On the journey to obtain the scriptures, he didn't even encounter any monsters.
Finally, he entered Buddhism and took complete vows. It was obvious that he loved women the most, but in the end, he never succeeded in his life.
Looking at the two pigs in front of me, they look just like the abused ones, yet they keep singing every night. If I knew about this, I would bang my head against the wall.
The peak of the demon realm.
The quality of the demons and monsters in this world is really good. The strength of the county god of Jinhua County is equivalent to the level of transformation of the spirit. This mere country god actually has the strength of the peak of the demon soldier realm. I am afraid that if we go further out, there must be demon generals, demon kings and the like. Thinking of this, Jiale decided to keep a low profile. What he wants is energy beads, not fame.
Jiale had made arrangements in advance. When the two pig monsters discovered him, two lightning bolts had already hit the pig monsters.
Although he had only recovered to the Qi Refining Stage, he was still invincible in that stage. Just two pig monsters, even if they were at the peak of the Monster Soldier Stage, would have to kneel down if they tried their best.
Two of the five statues shattered to pieces.
Um!
There are still two chicken essences, but they are so slow and haven’t come back yet.
However, Jiale didn't have to wait long, and soon the two chicken spirits came back. These two were only in the late stage of the demon soldier realm, so Jiale didn't bother to talk nonsense with them and just killed them and called it a day.
When I returned to Sun's house, the roosters had just crowed.
Well, chickens should just do chicken things and not mess around.
In just one morning, all five Qi Refining-level energy beads were refined. The speed of refining the space-time energy crystals was indeed much faster, which took as much as half a month.
Jiale plans to visit the other three Wutong Temples in Jinhua County tonight.
Guobei County.
Jiale watched Zhang Long finally decide to go to Lanruo Temple before turning his attention over there.
Zhang Long arrived at Guobei County in less than half a day on horseback, but he did not rush to investigate the matter of Lanruo Temple. Instead, he went to visit his cousin's family.
Fortunately, I remembered to ask my cousin about Lanruo Temple.
However, after listening to what his cousin said about Lanruo Temple, Zhang Long was also a little scared.
According to Zhang Long's cousin, a fire broke out in the Lanruo Temple a year ago for some unknown reason. The once glorious temple is now in ruins. But that's not all. Some passing merchants, students taking exams, escorts, etc. sometimes pass by the Lanruo Temple at night and want to rest there. But the strange thing is that once these people enter the Lanruo Temple, none of them can get out.
As time went by, the news that there were evil ghosts eating people in Lanruo Temple spread, and no one dared to go there anymore.
Zhang Long felt uneasy when he heard this, and he didn't dare to go there immediately. But Jiale wouldn't let him go. After hearing what Zhang Long's cousin said, Jiale knew that this Lanruo Temple must be the Lanruo Temple he knew, so how could he not go and check it out? Zhang Long didn't want to go, so Jiale let the paper man control Zhang Long and went straight to Lanruo Temple.
Drip!
It was strange that when they were passing not far from Lanruo Temple, it suddenly started raining. Jiale didn't think it was a coincidence, because Zhang Long's cousin said that those who passed by Lanruo Temple before had encountered this situation. They all went into Lanruo Temple to avoid the rain and never came out again.
Under Jiale's control, Zhang Long walked directly to Lanruo Temple.
Looking at the dilapidated Lanruo Temple in front of him, Jiale couldn't help but frown. This didn't look like it was burned by an ordinary flame. If it was burned by an ordinary flame, the Lanruo Temple in front of him should have been burned to ashes. However, the overall structure of the Lanruo Temple in front of him was still there, but it no longer looked glorious. It was charred everywhere and in a mess. However, there was no problem for people to live in it.
Buddha fire!
Jiale had some guesses, but they were just guesses. Legend has it that Buddha also has anger that can burn all the demons in the world, but Jiale has never seen it. However, one thing is certain, there must have been a fight in this Lanruo Temple, and it seemed to be on a large scale.
Well, the yin energy is a little stronger, and the demonic energy is also a little stronger.
Looking towards the sky behind Lanruo Temple, Jiale was a little dignified. The aura was actually at the level of a demon king. In the Lanruo Temple, the most powerful one was the tree demon grandma. If there were no accidents, the aura belonged to the tree demon grandma. Jiale originally thought that the tree demon grandma was at most a demon general, but now it seems that he underestimated her.
The problem is that the tree demon grandma is already a demon king, so what level should the Black Mountain Old Demon, who is much more powerful than the tree demon grandma, be at? I'm afraid he must be at least at the level of Return to Void Realm.
This world is indeed not comparable to Uncle Jiu's world, so one has to be careful about everything. Jia Le also secretly decided that he must not set foot in Lanruo Temple until his cultivation is restored.
You know, there is no ancestor of Jiale in this world.
Although there is Maoshan in this world, people don’t know Jiale. We will have to wait and see how he will get in touch with Maoshan in the future.
Thinking of this, Jia Le suddenly had an idea. The art of summoning gods does not limit the gods to ancestors. Perhaps Jia Le could try to see if he could summon some powerful figures.
Now that he already knew the approximate strength of the tree demon grandma, Jiale was not going to send Zhang Long in. After all, he was a capable person. Although he had a lot of tricks, he would not really let him lose his life in Lanruo Temple.
Zhang Long turned around and was about to leave, but at this moment, a cold wind suddenly blew behind him, and the sound of a piano came from the temple, which was refreshing and intoxicating.
"Sir, it's raining so hard, why are you still rushing on the road? Why don't you come in and take shelter?"
Just as Jiale turned around to leave, a soft yet seductive voice came from behind him. When he turned around, he smelled a fragrance and a beautiful face appeared in front of Jiale. The girl dodged and actually came close to Jiale.
Ghost!
It is beautiful, but in Jiale's eyes, it is just a pile of dry bones.
And this should not be Xiaoqian. In the movie I watched in my previous life, it said that although Xiaoqian also took yang energy, she did not lose her ghost body. But the one in front of me is a veteran of many battles.
Shaked his head.
"Oh, thank you, Miss. But I suddenly remembered that I have something important to do at home and I can't delay. I have to go back even if it means going through the rain. I won't stay here any longer. Thank you very much for your kindness. It's cold outside, so you should go in quickly. I'm leaving first."
After saying that, Jiale controlled Zhang Long and headed towards Guobei County without stopping.
Seeing this behavior, the female ghost frowned, and looked at her own peerless figure, whose peaks could not be covered by the veil, and whose buttocks could not be concealed by the silk. She took a mirror to look at her own peerless face. There was no problem. Looking at Zhang Long's back, she was a little annoyed. She had always been successful in her moves and was deeply loved by the grandmother. Now she failed. This was unreasonable.
If you don't accept my toast, then don't blame her for not giving you a chance. She originally wanted to let this man in front of her enjoy some bliss on earth before he died, but now it seems that this man has no chance of that.
snort!
The veil was thrown towards Zhang Long. Jia Le saw this and couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that this would not end well. Jia Le had only recovered to the Qi Refining Stage. The strength of this paper man was also limited. Facing this female ghost, he might not be able to defeat her. It seemed that Zhang Long might not be able to go back.
boom!
Just when Jiale was about to let the paper man take action, a sword light flashed in the sky. The female ghost who was about to rape Zhang Long was startled for a moment and fled into the temple without daring to stay.
Jiale felt the power of the sword, looked into the darkness, and was also shocked.
Could it be Yan Chixia!
Judging from the sword light, the swordsman’s strength is at least at the Yin Shen realm, and the only person he could meet in Lanruo Temple could be Yan Chixia.
However, his aura seemed to be a little off, as if he was injured. Seeing that he had no intention of coming out to meet him, Jiale did not go to him. The vigilance of monks is high to begin with, not to mention that he is already injured. He does not want to be discovered. If he had not seen that he was about to be captured by the female ghost, he probably would not have taken action.
Forget it, I'll just wait until my cultivation recovers before trying again.
Zhang Long was grateful to Yan Chixia for saving his life.
At the gate of Guobei County.
Zhang Long suddenly woke up. What was he going to do? Yes, he was going back to Jinhua County. The young master said that he had to go there quickly and come back quickly. He couldn't delay any longer. As for the Lanruo Temple, well, he had been there. It was over a hundred years old. It was burned down. There must be something fishy.
Thinking of this, Zhang Long seemed to be there himself, seeing the ghost in Lanruo Temple. The ghost seemed to have a beautiful face and was holding up a flash. Well, there were very few clothes.
Um!
Zhang Long sensed something was wrong and quickly shook his head. "This Lanruo Temple is indeed ominous. Just thinking about it makes me feel like I have seen a ghost. What would happen if I really went there? No, I have to devote myself to the young master until my death. How can I die here? Yes, that's it."
Jiale's attention was now on the other three Wutong Temples in Jinhua County. Of course, he had no idea how Zhang Long, the funny guy, was thinking of fooling him.
Jinhua County has a town under its jurisdiction called Wuzhong.
There was a pawnbroker in this town named Zhao Hong, who had a considerable business in Wuzhong Town.
However, what Zhao Hong was most famous for was not his huge fortune, but his beautiful wife. After all, his fortune was quite huge, and under Zhao Hong's financial offensive, the most beautiful girl in Wuzhong Town was quickly won over by Zhao Hong.
But if this girl is pretty, she will inevitably attract people's attention.
Zhao Hong's wife's surname is Yan. Yesterday, she went out for an outing with her maid. When she came back, she passed by the Wutong Temple. Although she did not go in, she was still seen by the Wutong God in the temple. Her outstanding appearance and plump body made the Wutong God fall in love with her at once.
After leaving his aura on Yan, he came here tonight.
After nightfall, a man suddenly broke into the quiet Zhao Mansion. He was holding a sword in his hand and had a burly figure, which made people afraid.
When the maids and old women saw the man, they were so scared that they ran away in panic.
When Yan heard the noise, she went out to see what was happening, only to be picked up by a sturdy figure who was coming towards her.
Yan was horrified and began to struggle immediately, but the man in front of her picked her up, brought her into the room, and threw her onto the bed. He began to take off her clothes the next moment. Yan, who strictly observed the three obediences and four virtues, had never experienced such a scene before and struggled even harder.
The man slowly spoke, "Don't be afraid, I am Silang, one of the Five Gods. I like you and will not harm you."
The man's words, like some magic, actually made Yan, who was struggling madly, quiet down instantly.
How could Yan not know the name of Wutong God? She knew that if it was a strong man, she might be saved, but if she met Wutong God, she was afraid that her reputation would be ruined today. If she disobeyed, not only her, but the entire Zhao family would suffer. This was not her own blind guess, but similar things were everywhere. She shed tears of humiliation and could only silently accept her fate.
Seeing this, Silang was secretly pleased with himself and was about to proceed to the next step.
"Blessings to the infinite heavenly master!"
At this moment, a Taoist name was heard in the courtyard. Wutongshen Silang stopped what he was doing immediately. He looked a little angry, but he did not completely lose his mind. He was not so ignorant that he did not even know this slogan often used by Taoists. No matter whether the Taoist outside was real or fake, he had to go out and take a look. If he was a fake, he would kill him. The beauty was still here, so he would come back to continue enjoying her. But if it was the real one!
When Silang thought of this, he was also startled. They knew how powerful those real Taoists were, so they seldom went to the city. It was because the people in the city had many connections and could invite real Taoists, while the country people had no connections and were afraid of them, so when they met them, most of them would just keep things quiet and would not say or do anything more.
Come to the yard.
Looking at the Taoist with a dark face and childish hair, Silang's heart trembled. He was also in the form of a domestic animal, and his cognition was the same as that of ordinary people. He felt that the older the monk or Taoist was, the more capable he was.
However, Silang did not see any signs of cultivation on the Taoist priest, and he felt that something was wrong, wondering if he was really a fake Taoist priest.
Let's scare him first.
"Hey, Taoist priest, don't mind your own business. Otherwise, your life will be in danger."
Jiale looked at Silang in front of him and couldn't help but smile in his heart. It was a coincidence that after nightfall, he left the city and headed towards the second Wutong Temple that Ji Jing had told him about. Unexpectedly, when he passed by Wuzhong Town, he happened to sense the aura of the Wutong God, so he followed him and took in everything Silang did.
After thinking for a while, Jiale changed his appearance and went to meet the servants from Zhao's house when he saw them coming out to call for help.
But this look is that of the mountain master Ziyin. He has the aura and the looks, which is much more intimidating than his childish face.
"Good man, your face is dark, I am afraid you will encounter bad luck."
The old woman was getting anxious, but when she heard Jiale's words, her eyes suddenly lit up, as if she had found her backbone. She brought Jiale to the Zhao Mansion, and this scene happened.
At the peak of the demon soldier realm, this should be the most powerful of the group of five gods mentioned by the chicken spirit.
"You are such a bold monster, you have stolen into other people's temples and raped their wives and daughters. Your crimes are unforgivable. Today is the day you will receive the consequences of your karma."
As soon as Jia Le finished speaking, he pointed forward and divine thunder descended from the sky.
Silang was shocked when he saw this, he knew that he had met a real Taoist priest. The five gods were most afraid of thunder magic. How could Silang dare to stay here and hurriedly ran away.
However, the thunder had already hit his body, and a white light flashed. Silang actually used the incense on his body to resist most of the thunder force. He barely saved his body from the heavy damage of the remaining thunder force. He did not dare to delay, and quickened his speed to run outside. In his haste, he even changed into his original form.
It turned out to be a white horse, but Jiale was well prepared. When the evil-suppressing coffin opened and closed, the white horse was absorbed into it. The true fire of the sun flowed, and it turned into ashes in an instant.
Yan had recovered by now. Not only was she not afraid of the thunder, she also went to the door to check. Seeing Jiale had captured the villain in no time, she was immediately excited and knelt down in front of Jiale with tears in her eyes.
"My benefactor, I thank you for saving my life."
Looking at Yan who was knocking her head to the ground and making loud noises, Jiale knew that she was terrified.
"Ma'am, ma'am, are you okay?"
At this time, Zhao Hong, who had rushed back from the pawnshop, also came to the gate. Looking at Yan in the yard, he hurriedly asked, and when he saw her disheveled appearance, he became even more nervous.
When Yan saw Zhao Hong coming back, she also rushed over.
"My dear husband, you are finally back. If it weren't for the Taoist priest's rescue, I would have, I would have, wuuuu!"
Zhao Hong held Yan in his arms and looked at Jiale, his eyes full of gratitude.
"Thank you for saving my life, Master. Zhao Hong has no way to repay you."
Jiale waved his hand, "No need. The Five Spirits are of the same origin. Now that I have killed one, the other four will probably be here in a moment. You guys should retreat for a while. It won't be too late to talk after I have subdued the remaining four."
Five-power God!
Zhao Hong's face turned pale when he heard this. The notoriety of Wutongshen was already deeply rooted in people's hearts. Although Zhao Hong hated him deeply, he couldn't help but feel afraid at this moment. However, after seeing Jiale's confident eyes, he finally gained some confidence.
"Thank you for your trouble, Taoist priest. I will definitely reward you generously later."
