In a blink of an eye, the Moon Worship Festival on August 15th is ushered in. A few days before this day, everyone will prepare gifts for relatives and friends to give gifts to relatives and friends. The gods and Buddhas pray for a good harvest and the safety and health of the family. Therefore, before dawn, when it was ugly time, people in the imperial capital got up one after another and went to the Lotus Buddha Temple to offer incense.
Wu Ruo and the others were no exception. They were woken up to wash and change their clothes for breakfast after lying down for two or three hours. When everyone saw Eggy eating breakfast with her eyes closed, they couldn't help laughing out loud. Instantly, everyone Be refreshed.
After breakfast, everyone got into the carriage.
On this day, the city gates of the imperial capital will be opened early so that the common people can go to the Lotus Buddha Temple to offer incense.
The Lianfo Temple is located on a mountain thirty miles away from the imperial capital, and the road is full of people driving carriages and riding horses.
To the foot of the Lotus Buddha Temple, everyone has to climb the eighty-eight feet long stairs to reach the gate of the Lotus Buddha Temple.
Under the bustling noise, Dandan finally woke up, saw the children playing together, and excitedly got down from Hei Xuanyi, within half a stick of incense, she became familiar with the children, mainly Dandan He is beautiful and cute, everyone likes him very much.
Heigan stayed behind to take care of Dandan, Wu Ruo, Guan Tong and the others went into the temple to burn incense. Not long after, the lobby of Lianfo Temple was enveloped in white smoke.
Wu Ruo and Hei Xuanyi couldn't bear the smell of smoke inside, so they came out of the Buddhist hall first.
Wu Ruo looked towards the back mountain, pointed to the golden pagoda and said, "I heard that there are many magical artifacts in the pagoda, and there is also a fairy artifact inside."
It was this fairy artifact that caused him to part with Hei Xuanyi.
"Immortal artifacts? Really?" Hei Xuanyi likes refining artifacts, and immediately became interested when he heard that there were immortal artifacts in the tower: "Now there are not many immortal artifacts in this world. If you can take a look, it's worth coming here." a trip.
Wu Ruo smiled and said: "You want to see the fairy artifact? Then don't think about it, except for the abbot of the Lianfo Temple, the abbot, the master of the country, and the emperor, no outsiders are allowed to enter at all, and, on weekdays, the gate of the pagoda is closed There are still many arhats guarding inside and outside, and no one has broken into it so far."
If it weren't for the arhat with ninth-level spiritual power guarding him, I believe that with his technique of hiding shadows, he would be able to avoid the eyes of the arhats and destroy the fairy artifact. Unfortunately, after absorbing the spiritual power of economics, he can only Up to the sixth level, there are still three levels to go to the ninth level.
Hei Xuanyi withdrew his gaze, he only wanted to see the fairy artifact, but he was not interested in fighting Arhats to break into the pagoda.
Wu Ruo took his hand: "Let's go to other places, there should be a quieter place in the temple."
The two walked towards the backyard, and an old monk wearing a red cassock greeted him in front of him. He was very benevolent, with a smile on his face, and the two eyebrows on his face were white and long. He also held a large golden staff in his hand. Behind him are six young monks.
The pilgrims next to him saw the old monk and walked over to salute happily: "I have met Elder Tong Zhou."
Elder Zhou returned the salute with a smile: "The benefactor is courteous."
The pilgrims gathered around Elder Tong Zhou and excitedly asked him about his recent fortune.
"Elder Tong Zhou, can you calculate for me, when will my son get married?"
"Elder Tong Zhou, my daughter has been unlucky, can you help me find out what's going on?"
"Elder Zhou, my husband has been away for more than half a year and has not returned yet. Can you figure out whether he is safe or not?"
"Elder Zhou..."
Hearing everyone's questions, Wu Ruo walked over curiously, wondering if this elder seemed to be quite capable, and wondered if he could figure out his future fate.
Elder Tong Zhou is very kind and can answer everyone's questions one by one.
The pilgrims were not greedy, and when they got the answers they wanted, they would thank them and leave. After a while, only Wu Ruo and Hei Xuanyi were left.
Elder Tong Zhou saw the two of them stunned for a moment, and said with a cordial smile, "I wonder what the two benefactors want to know?"
Wu Ruo glanced at Hei Xuanyi beside him and said, "We don't know what we want to ask for the time being. I wonder if Elder Tong Zhou can talk to us both at will?"
Elder Zhou nodded slightly: "Yes, it's just...'
"But it doesn't matter."
Elder Tong Zhou looked at Hei Xuanyi: "Judging from his appearance, this benefactor has an extraordinary appearance, extraordinary temperament, and even an extraordinary identity, but he has too many responsibilities. Lao Na sent a word to the benefactor and let go of his responsibilities. , is not necessarily a good thing.
Hei Xuanyi squinted his eyes and sincerely thanked: "Thank you, Elder Tong Zhou, for letting me know."
Elder Tong Zhou looked at Wu Ruo, looked at his face for a moment, and said, "Benefactor, your face is very strange, and Lao Na's ability is limited, so he can't detect one or two things, but Lao Na still has something to say to the benefactor, you If you are lucky enough to get a certain opportunity, you should cherish it. If there is a next time, you may not be so lucky.
Wu Ruo: "..."
Although the monk could not see his future fate, he could almost see that he had been reborn.
Elder Zhou looked at Hei Xuanyi again, and said with a smile: "Although the two sons are men, they look like husband and wife. Lao Na remembers the saying among the folks that 'a hundred years of cultivation can cross the same boat, and a thousand years of cultivation can make you sleep together. ', your fate is probably the same. However, your fate is also very wonderful. The relationship between husband and wife is obviously only fifteen years, but it seems that it can last for a long time. No matter what, it is hard to win. Cherish, don't miss each other again, or regret it too late."
"Fifteen years?" Hei Xuanyi frowned suddenly.
Wu Ruo: "..."
In the last life, he and Hei Xuanyi had been married for about fifteen years.
Elder Zhou clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, Lao Na can only see so much. If you say something that doesn't please you, please forgive me."
"Thank you, Elder Tong Zhou, for looking after us." Wu Ruo and Hei Xuanyi turned and left.
Elder Tong Zhou looked at Wu Ruo's back and sighed softly.
"Elder, why are you sighing?" The young monk behind Elder Tong Zhou had never heard Elder Tong Zhou sigh before, so he couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Elder Zhou sighed again: "It's just a premonition that something bad is going to happen to the benefactor just now, and I hope it doesn't really happen.
"Since the elder has a premonition that something bad will happen, let's prevent it from happening as soon as possible."
Elder Tong Zhou: "..."
He just had a premonition that something bad was going to happen. As for what it was, he didn't know if it would happen or not.
After Wu Ruo left Elder Tong Zhou's sight, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The monks of Lianfo Temple should not be underestimated. Maybe they have done more good deeds, so they can see some things from his face. Wu Chenzi can also read fortune tellers, but he didn't see a thing or two from his face. , I really don’t know if it’s luck or misfortune.
At this moment, an eight or nine-year-old monk came over and said to Wu Ruo, "Almsgiver, there is a distinguished guest in our temple who wants to see you."
"Who?"
The little monk spread out his palm and wrote the word "Prince" on it.
Wu Ruo looked at Hei Xuanyi, he had promised before that he would stay away from Ling Mohan and try not to meet this person.
Hei Xuanyi nodded, motioning for him to meet.
Now that they are in a cooperative relationship, meeting is inevitable.
Wu Ruo asked the little monk to lead the way.
The little monk took them to the abbot's room, but there was only the abbot in the room.
Doubt flashed in Wu Ruo's eyes.
The abbot smiled at them, and tapped on the wall separating him from the next door: "The honored guest is next door."
Then, a piece of the wall was pushed away, and Ling Mohan came out from the next door, followed by a middle-aged monk.
"I'm sorry, today is the day of offering incense, but I disturb you at this time, but I do have important things to meet you in this way." He turned to the middle-aged monk and said: "Elder Tongji, Please tell him about my father's situation."
He knew that Wu Ruo would come to Lianfo Temple to offer incense today, so he waited here.
"Yes." Elder Tongji bowed to Wu Ruo and Hei Xuanyi, and briefly said how he took the pulse: "Lao Na took the pulse for the emperor five times before and after. The emperor's dragon body is very good, and there is no abnormality. Later, after using the Buddhist magic weapon, I found that there was a black line extending from the heels of the emperor's feet to the waist of the emperor, and then connected into a line and spread to the neck of the emperor, condensing into a flower bone. Lao Na had never seen such a phenomenon. Even the host and other elders have never heard of what kind of disease this is, so I wonder if the little benefactor knows about it?"
If Ling Mohan hadn't insisted that Dijun had a physical problem, he wouldn't have taken out his magic weapon to take care of Dijun's body while Dijun was asleep, which was a crime of disrespect.
Wu Ruo frowned and said, "This... sounds like a symptom of poisoning."
Elder Tongji shook his head: "It's not poisoning, Dijun's pulse is calm and his blood is normal."
Wu Ruozi knew that it could not be as simple as being poisoned. You must know that every generation of emperor has purple energy to protect him. It is not so easy for others to harm the emperor. Otherwise, Wu Chenzi would not have waited until now, until he The age at which a great-grandson can inherit the throne.
Hei Xuanyi said calmly: "The symptoms the elder said are a bit similar to a curse I saw in a country on the border of Tianxing Kingdom."
Everyone was stunned: "Curse?"
"Well, it is said that this curse requires life-for-life, and uses one's own life to curse others to die. Before cursing, one needs to get the hair of each part of the other party, as well as blood waves to successfully curse. After that, being cursed will be like being sick. It is getting weaker and weaker, but the reason cannot be found. Only using the weapon can reveal the situation of being cursed. This kind of curse usually occurs when two people have about the same spiritual level, and they hate each other so much that they can't kill each other. cast a spell of self-sacrifice."
Ling Mohan said with a sullen face: "But, my father has purple energy to protect his body, so it's impossible for him to fall under the spell so easily."
Hei Xuanyi glanced at him lightly: "If it is a spell cast by multiple senior priests, do you think you will be cursed?"
Ling Mo stared at him coldly: "Will a senior priest be so stupid as to sacrifice his life? Also, how many senior priests will it take to complete this curse?"
"No, but if it wasn't done under my own will, that's another matter."
Ling Mohan was startled: "..."
Wu Chenzi is the number one national teacher of Tianxing Kingdom, and his spiritual level has reached level nine. It is still possible to control priests below level eight by using the spirit speech technique. Under such circumstances, using multiple priests Curse, maybe it will actually work.
Wu Ruo said: "You should be glad that he didn't curse you."
Wu Chenzi would not be so stupid as to use multiple precious senior priests to curse a prince. You must know that senior priests are not so easy to catch, not to mention the hairs of various parts of the prince are not so easy to get, but the emperor is different. , Wu Chenzi can let his granddaughter take the hair quietly when she shares the bed with the emperor.
It seems that he was too naive to think that Wu Chenzi used methods such as poisonous Gu to harm the emperor.
Ling Mohan asked anxiously: "If it is really a curse, is there a way to break the curse?"
Hei Xuanyi said: "I'm not a priest, and I don't know the situation of the spell. You should ask a priest to show the emperor."
Ling Mohan looked at Wu Ruo: "Isn't my father really poisoned?"
Wu Ruo squinted her eyes: "You should know that ordinary poisons are not effective for the emperor, and it is impossible for your father to be poisoned so easily. I have never seen or heard of such symptoms. Of course, my The medical skills are not very good, I have never seen or heard of it, it does not mean that such a thing does not exist, I think you should ask a few more doctors to show your father the situation."
When the Elder Tongji said that he had to use a weapon to shine on the emperor's body in order to see the other's physical condition, he already explained that it was not as simple as being poisoned.
Ling Mohan lowered his eyelids.
"If there is nothing else, let's take our leave first. My parents are still waiting for us in the front hall."
Wu Ruo pulled Hei Xuanyi out of the abbot's room.
Ling Mohan looked at the back of them leaving, and pressed his lips tightly.
Wu Ruo's husband not only has extraordinary temperament, noble manners, and elegant conversation, no wonder Wu Ruo likes him, but also a faint look can make people intimidated, which can only be done by those who are often in high positions. Earlier, he had sent someone to investigate Hei Xuanyi, but nothing was found. The identity of this person is a mystery.
Wu Ruo walked out of the host's courtyard and asked Hei Xuanyi, "How did you know about this curse?"
Hei Xuanyi recalled the situation at that time: "The year before last, when we just came to the border of Tianxing Kingdom, we met two male priests, one of whom was dead, and the other priest sat there blankly and kept muttering 'really It's vicious enough'. After careful questioning, I found out that the male priest was cursed by the death curse because he failed the feelings of a female priest. The date of death, and the death curse may not be successful, but no matter whether it succeeds or not, the person who cast the curse will die."
Wu Ruo asked again: "You really don't know how to break the curse?"
"It's not that I don't know, but that there is no solution, unless the person who cast the curse is still there.
Wu Ruo: "..."
There is really no solution, because the person who cast the curse is already dead when he casts the curse.
Fortunately, there were not many high-ranking priests, and the hair on various parts of the body was not so easy to obtain, otherwise, a person could be cursed to death casually.
"Should I shave all my hair after I go back, so as not to be cursed by Wu Chenzi?"
A smile flashed in Hei Xuanyi's eyes: "If he got your hair so easily, why didn't he kill you directly, why bother to go to such lengths.
Too.
Wu Ruo smiled.
