The wandering old monk said, "I actually don't know much about the details of the Taoist temple."
"A few years ago, I traveled around the Zhou Dynasty and discovered this situation in a town. The people there were also being persecuted and had nowhere to find help."
"So I came to help and sneaked into the gym in the same way. In the end, I had a fight with the fortune teller and was slightly better. Unfortunately, he ran away!"
"What town is that?"
The wandering old monk looked troubled, "Young man, this question is really difficult for me. I'm old, so I can't remember so much!"
"Is it in the west direction of Kyoto?"
"Xixiang!" The old monk Yunyou thought for a moment and nodded gently, "Yes! It seems to be Xixiang, the area in Youzhou."
"A place close to the Western Region."
"Yes!"
Li Huaiyun continued to ask, "Do you have any impression of this fortune teller?"
"He knows fortune-telling and medical skills. He is wearing a black robe and has an ugly face! I heard that when fortune-telling is done, it is always revealed to others."
Li Huaiyun added, "That face looks like it was severely burned!"
"right!"
That's right. The fortune teller and the man in black robe are the same person. Li Huaiyun continued to ask, "Old sir, in addition to making money, what is the purpose of this Taoist temple also doing various worships? For example, this deputy temple To do such an obscure thing."
"The purpose of worship is to select the right person to serve as a container for various monsters, and the work of the deputy palace is probably to cultivate those banshees that confuse people's hearts."
"I'm afraid there will be many such people in Dazhou!"
Li Huaiyun thought of the Ministry of War official. The talisman on the back of his head should prove to be the container. As for those banshees, they haven't been touched yet! If you have the chance, you must try how to charm people's hearts.
"So that's it. Does the old gentleman know the exact origin of the fortune teller?"
"I don't know!"
You can only check it yourself! Li Huaiyun clasped his fists in thanks and said, "Thank you sir, what should we do next?"
The wandering old monk looked toward the main hall, "Of course I will go and find out what's going on, and then find out the fortune teller."
The old man had arrested a fortune teller once before. Li Huaiyun asked, "Is this trip dangerous?"
The wandering old monk gently stroked his gray beard and whispered, "Young man, your question is very strange. If it were not dangerous, would you be here?"
"This fortune teller is not easy to deal with. I wonder if his cultivation has improved in the past few years."
Li Huaiyun thought to himself, then this has nothing to do with me in the refinement realm! I'm still here quietly watching this old man's performance, maybe I can still make a difference in the end.
He cupped his fists and said, "Then I'll leave everything to you, old man!"
The wandering old monk glanced at Li Huaiyun with disdain. This young man was thinking about saving his life first! He shook his head, "But, I need help!"
"help?"
"Yes! Someone needs to help me lure the fortune teller out. I need some time to gather my energy before I can take action!"
"Um, I wonder if you would be willing to help?"
You still need to gather your energy for this! Li Huaiyun said, "I am only in the essence refining realm, but in order to eliminate this scourge, I am willing to give it a try!"
The wandering old monk glanced at Li Huaiyun with admiration. He originally thought that the young man would choose to retreat when faced with this situation, but unexpectedly, he stepped forward instead.
What a rare and valuable young man!
"What do you need me to do?"
"It's up to you to go to the main hall to find out what's going on. As long as you wait until the fortune teller appears, I'll leave the rest to me."
"Okay!" Li Huaiyun looked towards the main hall.
At this time, a loud noise came from the main hall, the shouts became more fanatical, and the flames that shot into the sky made the entire courtyard appear brighter.
Noises and screams echoed throughout the gym.
"There's something going on there!"
"I guess the ceremony is almost over!"
"Old sir, let me go find out first!" Li Huaiyun jumped off the roof and ran towards the yard in front of the main hall.
When he was almost close to the outer wall of the yard, he jumped onto the outer wall, then came to the roof of the house on one side, then lay down and looked at the situation in the yard carefully.
All the men and women in the courtyard were lying on the ground piously. A stooped man in a dark robe was walking down the steps from the main hall. He was raising his hands and shaking them constantly, as if he was borrowing help from the gods. Possessed like that.
Li Huaiyun looked at the scene in the yard. Isn't this just a master dance, pretending to be a ghost? ignorance!
The male and female believers below raised their upper bodies rhythmically, then worshiped, murmuring non-stop.
The man in black robe walked to where the incense burner was, looked at the steaming incense burner, and sprinkled a handful of things into it.
Suddenly, blue smoke continued to emerge from the furnace and spread around.
By the way, what are they doing? A special pre-workout ritual? Li Huaiyun hid on the roof, quietly looking at the yard below, and smelled the smell coming from the incense burner, with a slight fragrance.
After a long time, with a wave of the man in black robe, everyone was separated by guards and then divided into different places.
The women were naturally taken to the auxiliary hall, and the man in black robe walked up the steps and entered the main hall of the gym.
The courtyard was now deserted.
Indecent! Li Huaiyun came down from the roof and hid in the darkness. Since he had to go to the main hall, he carefully looked around, hoping not to disturb the guards.
After all, they were all muscular men, and they looked difficult to deal with.
The statue in the auxiliary hall is not a serious thing at a glance, let alone the medicines distributed to women. This kind of practice is all to cultivate the so-called enchanting banshee.
However, if these banshees were given to the court officials one by one, the entire Great Zhou Dynasty might really be destroyed.
The main hall of the Taoist temple suddenly became brightly lit, and accompanied by noisy chanting, the already cloudy sky in the Taoist temple became even darker, and a large dark cloud was pressing down.
At this time, the token around Li Huaiyun's waist became much brighter. I'm afraid Sikyong would not be able to deal with this demonic aura soaring into the sky.
He suddenly had a little suspicion about the wandering old monk. Could he be deceiving me?
Li Huaiyun did not go up the steps, but went up to the side of the main hall. After making sure that there were no guards nearby, he walked lightly to the main door of the main hall.
What he didn't expect was that the door of the main hall was actually open, a bit like a scene where you were invited to enter the urn. He watched the man in black robe enter the main hall. Now it was obvious!
Li Huaiyun stood in front of the main door of the main hall, arranged his brocade clothes, and then put on his bronze fist. Since he had been discovered, he felt that there was no need to be so sneaky.
He walked into the main hall and came to the middle. In front of him was an area surrounded by wooden strips with many talisman paper pasted on it. Four braziers were placed at the four corners, and the charcoal fire inside was poured with oil and burned. Quite exuberant.
What surprised him was that what was piled in the middle were stumps and severed arms of the human body, including heads, like a dismemberment scene.
When Li Huaiyun saw this scene, he felt a soreness in his throat, which made him feel particularly uncomfortable.
How many people has this guy killed, and how many people have he turned into vessels for monsters?
He suppressed his nausea and took a few steps back, only to find that the ground of the main hall was now covered with yellow talisman papers.
Li Huaiyun raised his head and saw a lot of talismans falling from the dark top.
call out! A gust of cold wind blew up the talismans on the ground and scattered them in the wind.
"You finally found this place!" The man in black robe walked out from behind the wooden bars covered with talismans. "I really admire your courage to come here alone. I warned you last time in Kyoto. I didn’t expect you to come here, do you think I won’t kill you?”
Li Huaiyun concealed the fear in his heart and smiled calmly, "Do you really think I will come here alone?"
"Otherwise? Do you still have companions?"
"Yes, you are on your way. I never imagined that you are actually a fortune teller, using your own abilities to destroy a town!"
"They joined voluntarily! Because they saw hope in their faith."
Li Huaiyun took out the jade carving and said angrily, "Humph! Stop talking about faith here with your hope that smells like copper! Let those old farmers spend their family savings to get a worthless jade carving. This is What you call hope.”
He threw the jade sculpture to the ground heavily, "Take your jade sculpture and crawl with me. Don't let me pretend to be a savior here."
"You don't understand at all! However, I will let you understand! Not only will you get physical happiness here, but it will also allow you to enter a new realm mentally."
"Go away!" Li Huaiyun squeezed his palms, "Let me come and tear off your hypocritical face!"
"Hypocrisy?" The man in black robe said in a deep voice, and took a step forward. In the dark hall, four guards walked out, with their upper bodies bare and their muscles clearly defined.
Four of them coming at once will definitely not be easy to deal with!
Li Huaiyun glanced around, gathering the essence of his body and his hands and arms. The guards had heavy faces and their eyes were staring straight at him.
Suddenly, the guards jumped towards him, preparing to deal with him with their fists.
He lowered his body, ducked, got close to a guard, and then knocked him down with his fist. However, this was different from the usual contact. He felt that the punch hit the guard, which was a bit weak.
The other three guards also rushed up, and Li Huaiyun knocked down all of them easily, which was a bit beyond his expectation.
"That's it?"
Why do these guards look so strong, but in actual contact, they really look like ethereal air.
The guards quickly stood up and continued to attack Li Huaiyun. As expected, it was not that simple. He once again concentrated his power on his fists, and then fought the guards with several moves.
These guards are not real people.
"Stop using these boring Taoist arts!" He shouted loudly, "Just these paper talisman! They are just here to attract attention! Right?"
The man in black robe laughed sinisterly, "You are indeed smart enough!"
"I also want to use the same silver needle as last time to pierce the acupuncture points on my feet to make me unable to move!"
"Although you are trained in martial arts, your brain is unusually easy to use, unlike those martial artists."
Li Huaiyun responded confidently, "It seems that you are at your wits' end! Otherwise, you wouldn't have thought of using your original tactics to deal with me."
The man in black robe let out a cold laugh, "The end of the road?"
