Yinlong Temple

It was the afternoon, and some pilgrims were holding umbrellas and burning incense on Xiangshan Mountain. They seemed to have nothing to do.

In one room, several monks looked anxious and hurriedly knelt on the ground, burning documents with fire sticks. Because they were too close, they were covered in sweat and did not dare to wipe them. Their faces turned pale and they hurriedly said: "Quick, Quick, burn all these accounts."

These are the accounts written down by the monks, showing the amount of money coming and going.

At this time, a junior brother came in with a pigeon: "Brother, it's not good, there are officers and soldiers at the bottom of the mountain. Let's leave quickly, otherwise we won't be able to leave."

This was a homing pigeon sent from a hidden stake arranged at the foot of the mountain. The leading senior brother stood up and said: "Brothers, this is too slow. I will get oil and burn it on fire. These evidences must not be kept."

"After burning this room, even if the government knows something is wrong, there is nothing they can do."

"Elder brother, where are the others? Can you take them with you?" a monk asked.

"We will leave after the burning, and no one else will be taken with us. Although we are outer disciples, we are also disciples, so we are specially taking care of them. The rest of us are just peripherals and do not know the inside story."

"If they are arrested, even if they are all beheaded, the case will be closed."

"If we take them with us, let alone whether we can escape. Even if we escape, we will all be wanted by the court, and the matter will only escalate."

"Otherwise, why would I kill the few people just now? If they don't die, how can they be our substitutes and how can the golden cicada escape from its shell?" The senior brother paused at the door, turned around and walked out.

After a while, the senior brother sprinkled oil on the bookshelves and tables in the room, threw them up with his hand, and said, "Leave quickly!"

The torch was thrown on the bookcase, and it started burning along with the oil. These people all took off their monk robes and went out towards the back door.

Not long after the group went out, they heard a fire cry from inside Yinlong Temple: "Hurry, put out the fire quickly, senior brother's room is on fire, put out the fire quickly."

In less than a quarter of an hour, officers and soldiers came up from the mountain and surrounded the temple. A monk came out and yelled: "Who are you..."

Before the monk finished speaking, a long arrow shot through the monk's throat in an instant. He heard a "pop" and fell to the ground. The commander of the Army and Horse Division shouted loudly: "The officers and soldiers are arresting the thief. Who dares to resist?" , shoot without mercy."

The pilgrims who came out of the door were trembling with fear for a moment, fell to the ground, and did not dare to say anything. Officers, soldiers and arresters swarmed in.

Several monks in the temple took out their knives to resist, but were cut down randomly. Some martial artists could only struggle for a moment, only to hear a "puff" sound, and were shot to death by random arrows. The rest were kneeling on the ground.

The commander of the Military and Horse Division and the arrester looked at each other and smiled: "Search, these monks must have hidden a lot of gold and silver. Find them all. These are all stolen goods."

These soldiers and government officials tied up the monks one by one, and the rest swarmed in, looking for money everywhere. One of the government officials was overjoyed and ran out and shouted: "Master Commander, arrest the head and find a secret passage."

The yamen officer led the commander and the policeman into the main hall. The yamen officer patted the wall, and a secret passage opened, and there were several monks and women trembling inside.

When the commander saw several naked monks and women being held captive, he couldn't help but smile scornfully: "A den of thieves."

Looking at several naked women, one of them seemed familiar and covered her face with her hands. The commander's expression suddenly changed. He went up to grab the woman and pulled her hands away. His face suddenly turned red.

This woman was his concubine. She recently said she was devoted to Buddha and came to the temple many times. She suddenly became furious, drew her knife, and shouted: "How dare you?"

The knife penetrated the heart, blood spattered, and the women around him screamed in horror.

The commander kicked the corpse aside and said, "Kill all these thieves, leaving no one behind."

Chief Luo Bang

Eyes full of green, there is a courtyard in the forest of pines and cypresses, overlooking the waterway with an invisible deterrent. This courtyard covers an extremely large area, and at this time, in a room, a Taoist is burning accounts. These are all related to the saint. All accounts related to the prison gate must be dealt with.

The Taoist's two maids were also burning with the Taoist. Their expressions were frightened. They didn't know why the Taoist would do this. They were filled with surprise and doubt, but they did not dare to violate the Taoist's authority.

After the burning, the Taoist looked relaxed and said to the two maids: "I have something to go out for. You guys wait, I will come back later."

When the Taoist went out, the two maids looked at each other, and one of them said: "No, he burned the account, he must be running away. Let's go and notify the deputy gang leader."

The maid was about to go out in a hurry. Before she could open the door, a hand reached in and twisted around her neck. For a moment, her whole head turned around and she fell limply to the ground.

Seeing that her companion was dead, another maid begged for mercy: "Taoist Master, considering that I have served you for so long, don't kill me, don't kill me."

The Taoist let out a long sigh: "The Luo Gang is over. Since you have been with me for so long, I wanted to give you a chance, but I didn't expect that you would dare to betray me."

The maid repeatedly begged for mercy, but before she could say anything, the Taoist slapped her on the forehead. She suddenly lost her voice and fell to the ground softly, with blood flowing from all her orifices.

The Taoist dragged the two maids to the bed, covered them with quilts, and then left.

Speaking of the Luo Gang, the gang leader is Yang Kun, and the deputy gang leader is Su Liu. He is a smart, capable and loyal person. Otherwise, it would be difficult to become the deputy gang leader. At this time, walking around in the hall, I always felt that something was wrong.

"The gang leader is out, but there is no news yet."

"A few of the Taoists in this group looked like they were leaving in a hurry, but why?"

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a loud shout from outside: "Kill."

Immediately afterwards there were sounds of killing and great anger. Who is it? How dare you attack the Luo Gang.

Before Su Liu left the hall, a leader, covered in blood, rushed towards him and shouted: "Deputy gang leader, run away, the government officials are calling and are surrounding us outside. We brothers are no match."

"What? The government is calling. It's impossible. I've dealt with the state government and I've given away enough money. How can I still come to fight?" Su Liu hesitated a little. He walked out of the hall and looked outside. His face suddenly turned pale. I saw a large group of people rushing to kill them in the daytime, they were officers and soldiers.

Just then, there was a "bang" sound, and an arrow shot through the door panel and was inserted into Su Liu's ear. His face turned pale, and he turned around and left.

Only newcomers to the Jianghu could fight against the officers and soldiers. The immediate reaction of the old Jianghu was to leave, and it would not be too late to investigate later. Thinking of this, Su Liu climbed over the wall and went out.

The main rudder is not far from the river. A little further away is the river bank, where a ship is docked.

As he ran over, he saw a familiar catcher looking at him with a smile. He couldn't help but feel happy and surprised. This man usually held hands with him, but he didn't expect to see him today, so he said: "Hu catcher..."

Before he finished speaking, several archers emerged from the cabin, and the leader shouted loudly: "Fire arrows!"

"Puff puff"

More than ten arrows were fired, and it turned out that there were ambushes in other directions.

Su Liu was extremely skilled in martial arts. He roared angrily and swung his sword to block several arrows, but was unable to block the remaining arrows. Suddenly, the sound of arrow tips piercing his body continued. For a moment, he was still breathless. He looked at this with hatred. Headhunting.

The catcher looked at it and said, "You've run out of energy."

As he spoke, he took out an arrow and shot it. He heard a "pop" sound and shot through his head. Su Liu died immediately.

After killing Su Liu, the captain brought the boat to the shore. The archers got off the boat. A middle-aged man came out of the cabin. This middle-aged man was also wearing a blue robe. He was a scholar. He talked to the captain: " They have finally been silenced. Although the losses were huge, we still have people at the helms of the river rudders. We will organize the construction of another one at that time, but we don’t know when it will be built again.”

The catcher grinned and said: "There is nothing we can do about the huge loss. This is the most appropriate treatment. Cut off all factors that may affect the sect, and there will be no influence on the sect."

"The sect will also push people to quickly close the case. The longer this matter drags on, the more troublesome it will be. I never thought that just by recruiting a scholar to get started, it would lead to such a big loss. Zhang Jieyu also did something wrong."

"Needless to say Zhang Jieyu, this man has suffered the consequences of his bad work. He has already died. He has been killed by officials, and his name has been removed from the family. Moreover, he has sinned by the dragon's energy. He will not even be able to redeem himself in the future. It's really It’s sad and there’s no point in talking about it.”

The catcher sneered: "There must be Songyun Sect behind this Pei Ziyun. They are an established sect in Dong'an Prefecture. We will have the opportunity to settle accounts with them, huh."

Zhoucheng·Fu Mansion

Just as Yun Niang was pointing at the little Lolita to practice the magic, there was news from Fu Ying. When she opened the Fu Ying, a Taoist appeared. This was the Taoist from Dong'an Mansion, who was responsible for collecting information.

This man appeared to report, and after saying a few words, Yun Niang took a breath: "What? Such a big thing happened?"

"Pei Ziyunju killed Zhang Jieyu, the inner disciple of the Holy Prison Sect who was the focus of training? The method was really lightning fast."

Zhang Jieyu Yunniang had heard about it for a long time, and Pei Ziyun was also the key person she reported to.

After hearing the news, I was shocked for a moment. After digesting it for a while, I took out a jade ruyi and pointed it at a point. I heard a "buzz" sound and the aura lit up.

When Da Xu unified Anzhou, the Songyun Sect also exerted great efforts, and then it was granted the privilege of spell transmission by the state capital, and this jade Ruyi is one of the communication magic weapons, and it has other wonderful uses.

Yun Niang pointed with her finger, and after a moment a figure appeared.

The man's face was blurred, and there was a cloud behind him, so he couldn't see clearly. Yun Niang was not surprised, so she reported the matter and explained the details clearly.

This person was a little surprised after hearing this and said, "Junior Sister Yun, please wait a moment. I will report the matter to the leader and let him handle it."

After a while, there was a flash of inspiration, and a Taoist priest appeared with many wrinkles on his forehead. When Yun Niang saw this man, she knelt down and said, "Master, why are you here in person?"

"Yun Niang, I have checked this son, and he is related to our sect."

"Senior Brother Zhao has already mentioned to me that he has passed on the formula to see the effects. This incident was very sudden. Since this boy has such a record, he must have gathered his spiritual wisdom and channeled his inner strength. There are no people around him. As a person of suitable status, I now order you to go down the river immediately to check the inside story, especially whether he is practicing the same sect and how many levels he has practiced."

"Yes, Master, I will go immediately." Yun Niang responded, and the aura was extinguished.

As for the new Taoist sects, the old Taoist sects are very careful about themselves, and even if they get the communication rights of the state capital, they are not willing to use them more.

Seeing that the spiritual light was extinguished, Loli didn't dare to speak loudly just now. Now she just pulled her and said: "Auntie, I want to go too, I want to go too."

Yun Niang couldn't help but feel angry, and she touched the little Loli's forehead: "You little guy, you will be mad to death sooner or later."
