Langao City is not big, it is just a small county town, but there are quite a few people.
The city is lined with green trees and people who look like tourists can be seen everywhere. The sound of cicadas fills the hot summer day, which is a bit noisy.
Du Yu sat in the passenger seat, looking at this strange city, with only two words in his mind: clean!
Langao City is a tourist city. People from all over Daxia come here to visit the mysterious and magical Huangtu Temple located in the eastern suburbs of the city.
The quality of tourists is bound to be uneven, but this tourist city is incredibly clean.
When it comes to improving the city's appearance, Langao City has indeed made great efforts.
"It's so clean." Li Mengnan muttered softly while looking out the window in the back seat.
Lin Shiwei said as he drove: "Langao City has very strong punishments for some uncivilized behaviors, but this is only one of the reasons."
Li Mengnan: "What else?"
Lin Shiwei said softly: "As a level 5 demon spirit realm, the Royal Earth Temple only accepts demon controllers above the level of Demon Commander.
Naturally, only a few are qualified to enter and gain experience.
Anyone who comes here, whether ordinary people or demon tamers, comes here for the Imperial Land Temple."
Li Mengnan asked curiously: "So?"
Lin Shiwei smiled and said, "Most of these people have faith or something they want. Let me ask you, what god is worshipped in the Huangtu Temple?"
Li Mengnan: "Empress of the Earth, oh, I see. The Empress is the embodiment of the earth."
Since the vast majority of people come here to see the Empress Dowager, they will naturally consciously restrain their own behavior.
There are many ways to understand our reverence for the earth.
Keeping the earth clean and tidy, not littering, not spitting, etc., is something that everyone can understand.
Du Yu asked, "You know a lot, don't you?"
"I went back and looked up some information." Lin Shiwei said casually while steering, "I asked the elders in the family who had come here to practice."
Hearing this, Du Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.
"Oh, you?" Li Mengnan said with a smile, "Third sister is so thoughtful."
Obviously, ever since Du Yu mentioned the word "Langao" in the bottomless abyss, Lin Shiwei has kept it in mind.
At that time, Du Yu just said that Senior Lang Gao agreed and he could ask for advice if he had any questions.
This means that one day in the future, Du Yu might go to Langao City.
No matter how likely this is, Lin Shiwei has done her homework in private and prepared in advance.
Lin Shiyi said as if it was a matter of course: "As a demon tamer, it won't hurt to know more about the special demons and otherworldly civilizations."
The girl wrote it lightly, but Du Yu smiled at himself.
This was clearly her own business, but as Li Mengnan said, Lin Shiwei was more attentive.
Lin Shiwei asked, "What identities do we have to go in? The routes and areas used by demon masters and ordinary tourists are different."
Li Mengnan said hurriedly: "It's not easy to come here, why don't we follow the ordinary tourists and visit the Niangniang Temple
So many people come here to worship it, it must be very effective, I just happened to go there to worship the gods too!"
Lin Shiwei glanced at the rearview mirror: "Aren't you a god yourself?"
"Haha~ Right!" Du Yu laughed out loud, "Meng Nan can drive the three-sided golden statue to destroy the place and steal the incense."
"Puh, puh, puh!" Li Mengnan stretched out his arm and gently patted Du Yu's mouth with his white and soft hand. "Children's words are innocent. The wind will blow them away. The wind will blow them away!"
Du Yu: “.”
Li Mengnan leaned forward and looked at Du Yu's profile: "Don't say anything after you go in. My parents' affairs are all up to me!"
Du Yu nodded repeatedly, and the girl finally let go of his hand.
After a little thought, Lin Shiwei guessed what wish Li Mengnan was going to make.
She was also curious, could this wish really come true
If you make a wish for a good harvest of crops or fruits this year, it seems more relevant to your major, right
As the vehicle drove forward, everyone soon arrived at the eastern suburbs.
Before reaching the Huangtu Temple area, Du Yu was already dumbfounded!
Huangtu Temple is not an isolated temple, but a huge complex of buildings.
The temple wall is several meters high and is made entirely of mud. The various buildings inside are of different sizes and heights. Generally speaking, the building complex is high in the middle and low on the sides.
If you want to enter the main hall to worship, the path you have to take gives you a feeling of "ascending step by step to heaven".
Du Yu, who had excellent eyesight, naturally saw the main hall high up, as if it was located in the sky.
Magnificent and spectacular!
But as the deity of the earth, shouldn’t Empress Huangtu be in a lower and more down-to-earth position
Full of doubts, Du Yu and others finally found a parking space and walked towards the building complex together.
There was a constant stream of people in front of the Huangtu Temple.
There were only a few people queuing in front of the Monster Control ticket window.
There were five ticket windows for ordinary tourists, and each queue was very long and packed with people.
No matter if you are truly pious and come to worship God, or if you have something to ask for and come to worship the desires in your heart,
Such a crowded scene gave Du Yu a clear message: it works!
"What do you mean?" Du Yu lowered the brim of his hat and looked at the two completely different teams.
Li Mengnan was a bit troubled: "How about we buy the Monster Tamer's tickets and go in first?"
Lin Shiwei: "Different routes are not connected to each other. The rules here are very strict."
This is a fifth-level magical realm that involves the lives of thousands of ordinary tourists. How could the rules here be lax
Du Yu said, "I'll go get in line. You two can go back to the car first, or go to Taoyuanjie to take a rest."
Li Mengnan was a little embarrassed: "Du Yu."
"Haha." Du Yu smiled, "It seems to be quite effective. What if Teacher Li can really reconcile with uncle?"
"I have to queue up, too. I'll be more sincere." Li Mengnan refused, "You two can go to the car."
As the trio were chatting, the surroundings suddenly became a little quiet.
Lin Shiwei pinched the brim of his hat with one hand and turned his head to look.
I saw a group of soldiers coming over, standing in front of the three people, and saluted without saying a word.
Such a scene not only stunned the surrounding tourists, but also confused Du Yu and his companions.
The trio were all wearing hats and masks. In an area crowded with tourists, such attire was very common and not conspicuous.
Of course, with the temperament of the three members of the Yan Organization, even if they are wrapped up tightly, someone with a keen eye can still see the clues.
But Du Yu really didn't want to believe that the soldiers recognized him like this.
"Excuse me, with what identity do you all want to enter the Imperial Temple?" asked the leading soldier.
"Ordinary tourists." Du Yu said immediately, "What are you doing?"
"Please." The leading soldier did not explain, but just slightly turned sideways, and the other soldiers surrounded Du Yu and others and protected them in the center.
The three members of Yan’s organization looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, a group of people surrounded the trio, left the ticket area, and headed straight for the gate of the strange world.
Several people queuing at the Monster Controller ticket window couldn't help but look surprised.
Of course they could tell that these three people were demon tamers, but why didn't these three young people buy tickets
The demon tamers need to queue up!
Even though there are only 5 or 6 people in front of the Monster Control window, it is still very difficult to buy tickets.
Because there is a limit on the number of demon-controllers who can enter the Imperial Temple for practice!
Only when a demon tamer from the foreign land comes out, can a demon tamer from outside enter.
this.
"What's going on? Those three little kids cut in line?" One of the elderly demon controllers was unhappy!
Who wants to be exposed to the sun in this hot summer
"This demon friend should say less. Since he is a young man and is qualified to enter the Imperial Temple, you can imagine his potential."
"Queue-jumping is never allowed in the Imperial Temple. No matter you are a demon general or a demon emperor, you must abide by the rules here. So, fellow demon friends, please keep quiet."
"What do you mean? You're telling me these three dolls are the Seven Saints of Daxia?"
"Well"
The demon controllers here made wild guesses, while Du Yu and his companions were brought into the gate of the strange world.
"Excuse me, who asked you to pick us up?" Du Yu looked at the soldier leading the team in front and asked politely.
The soldiers, however, had serious expressions on their faces and did not say a word. They saluted Du Yu and the others again, then withdrew their troops and left.
Such a scene also made these three people the most handsome guys at the gate!
Du Yu hurriedly lowered his head and took the two of them into the crowd.
The thick smell of incense lingered around and penetrated into my nose through the mask.
In front of a hall, there stood a huge stone incense burner. At this moment, countless people were burning incense and worshiping, chanting something.
For a moment, Du Yu and Lin Shiwei were in sync and looked at Li Mengnan.
Li Mengnan understood what he meant and hurried to buy incense.
"Don't you have any wishes?" Lin Shiwei took Du Yu's arm very naturally and asked with a chuckle.
"I have so many wishes." Du Yu also smiled, "For example, we can go to the Grey Continent again and return safely."
"My friend, you can pray. There is a god above your head." Suddenly, an old voice came from the side.
Du Yu was startled and turned to look beside him.
This is an old lady with kind eyes and simple clothes.
Only a handful of people in this world knew the meaning of "Gray Continent", and he didn't think that they understood what he said.
But this strange old lady.
She actually picked up three incense sticks and handed them to Du Yu
Lin Shiwei frowned slightly and reached out to take the incense for Du Yu. Under the girl's majestic gaze, the old woman still smiled naturally.
It was at this time that Lin Shiwei heard Du Yu's words, which shocked her.
Du Yu: "Old man, why don't you have a heartbeat?"
"Haha." The old woman laughed silently, clasped her hands together, bowed slightly, then turned and left.
Suddenly a breeze blew, and wisps of smoke floated out of the incense burner.
The slightly hunched figure disappeared into the crowd after the fireworks.
A demonic spirit appeared on Lin Shiwei's hand: "She is not human?"
"Yes, the Supreme Saint Jinwu told me." Du Yu also responded with his demon soul.
In broad daylight, the incense is burning brightly.
The crowd was crowded and it was a hot summer day, but Lin Shiwei felt a little chilly.
From the sudden appearance of the soldiers who brought several people in, to the mysterious old woman they met at this time, everything about it revealed a hint of weirdness.
Lin Shiwei's heart moved: "Could it be Senior Lang Gao? Does she know we are here?"
Du Yu thought for a moment and nodded: "It's very likely."
With such powerful means, it is really possible that it is her!
Hearing this response, Lin Shiwei couldn't help but look strange: "Could it be that the Queen Mother of the Land is Senior Lang Gao?"
Du Yu: “.”
It’s really possible!
"Finally I found you." Li Mengnan came back and held out his hand to share the fragrance. "Hey? Where did the fragrance come from, Third Sister?"
"It was given by a kind person." Du Yu replied, and took the incense from the girl, and said to Lin Shiwei, "Let's follow the good advice."
If it is really Senior Langao who wants to offer some incense, then we will give it to him.
No, that's not right!
There are so many visitors in the Huangtu Temple, do you need a few sticks of incense? What a joke!
Could it be that Senior Lang Gao is trying to convey a certain idea to me
The more he thought about it, the more bizarre Du Yu felt the world was!
This trip to Huangtu Temple undoubtedly opened the door to a new world for him.
Well, if the speculation is correct, then this old senior is quite divine.
Didn't this make her a saint
It’s not like Du Yu hasn’t seen a demon-controlling saint before. Although the predecessors all have an immortal look and temperament, they are indeed qualified to be respected by all living beings.
But Senior Feng, Senior Mo and the others are not that "divine" to this extent, right
Du Yu was lost in thought as he walked and stopped with the two girls, visiting various halls along the way.
Du Yu and Lin Shiwei were just visiting, while Li Mengnan paid his respects to each one. The only place he didn't pay his respects to was the stage.
It seems that the girl really doesn't want to run between her parents~
The scale of the Huangtu Temple was much larger than Du Yu had imagined. It looked magnificent enough from the outside before.
But now that he was in the middle of it, Du Yu even felt a little lost.
Fortunately, the layout of the Huangtu Temple was neat, and finally, the three of them came to the dirt steps of the main hall of "Bu Bu Deng Tian".
"Oh my god." Li Mengnan sighed softly. She looked up and gazed at the huge main hall that connected heaven and earth.
At this moment, people were going up and down the dirt steps leading to the sky, and the scene was quite spectacular.
If this happens to be a foggy day, it would probably really give people an illusion that people are walking down from the sky.
"Let's go up and take a look." Du Yu stepped up to the sky, and the two followed closely behind him.
It took a while for everyone to reach the main hall area. The overwhelming incense in the incense burner in front of the gate was even more jaw-dropping.
Through the wide-open temple door, the huge statue, which is more than ten meters high, is awe-inspiring.
On the way here, Du Yu and others had seen many statues of gods, but the difference between those statues and the statues in the temple was very obvious.
It's not just about specifications, it's also about momentum.
Especially the Queen Mother in the center wearing a gorgeous phoenix crown, showing her demeanor as the mother of the country.
She had a kind face, but her appearance was so solemn that Du Yu's heart trembled slightly.
"Oh my God." Li Mengnan shrank his neck and dared not look up at the statue anymore.
Even though she was watching from a distance, she was secretly sad.
What's even more strange is that this kind of pressure seems to be only given to demon controllers like Du Yu and Li Mengnan.
The ordinary tourists around were full of awe, but they definitely did not feel any real pressure.
Du Yu murmured, "This is not a god."
"Shh." Lin Shiwei shook Du Yu's hand and hurriedly reminded him, after all, there were so many pious people around.
The demon spirit emerged from Du Yu's palm: "This is not even a statue of a god, it's a living thing!"
Lin Shiwei pursed her lips, apparently realizing something.
Du Yu looked into the hall from afar, staring wide open, and carefully feeling this special sense of oppression.
He had felt this unique feeling in front of Tianqingci!
The Empress Dowager in the palace.
It is a holy one!
