Their eyes met, and after noticing a little shock in each other's eyes, Qi Feimeng glanced at Zhao Chen, who was still making a gesture of "touching the corpse", and sighed slightly: "You really followed me again... I I thought it was just the one before."
However, she didn't want to explore the specific reasons why the other party could "take advantage of" her "opportunity", just like the other party never asked her why she could travel through the "mist of history".
Even friends have their own secrets.
What's more, with Zhao Chen here, she has a greater chance of completing her "mission", which is also a good thing.
Otherwise, it would be really difficult for her to walk in her current state.
"I don't know the specific reason. Maybe it has something to do with the Bodhisattva portrait I saw in Fang Xuzi's memory?"
Having said that, Zhao Chen couldn't even convince himself.
Based on the characteristics displayed by the "Great Sun Star Cha", it is more likely that it made some shady deal with that Bodhisattva picture!
Zhao Chen thought secretly.
At this moment, just like when Jing Village started last time, he heard something in an unknown language, but he could understand its meaning:
"In the thirteenth year of Yingli in the Tang Dynasty, the Beiting Protectorate was established.
"The first stage: protect Zhang Yunlu until dawn."
"Zhang Yunlu?" Zhao Chen looked around, but saw no outsiders in this black and white and gray temple.
On the contrary, I was a little surprised to find that there was no statue of a god in this ruined temple, and there was only a badge as tall as a person on the main throne.
This badge is carved from ordinary stone, with a sun in the middle and many stars carved around it... However, because it has been abandoned for a long time, many places have been weathered and the details cannot be seen clearly.
What kind of temple is this? As soon as Zhao Chen had doubts in his mind, Qi Feimeng over there said: "This is a temple dedicated to the Star God...
"After the Jiashen Heaven Change, the belief in the Star God also flourished for a while, with many temples... But then something unexpected happened. The Star God never responded to the prayers of believers. Even the Star Society that believed in the Star God was banned. It was taken over by evil spirits and turned into an evil organization.”
It turns out to be the temple of the Star God... But Feimeng, you know so much, your knowledge is probably no worse than that of my master! Zhao Chen was thoughtful, but didn't intend to go into details.
He thought for a moment, and just as he was about to ask about the mission, the colors of the surrounding scenery gradually became richer.
A few seconds later, as a gust of cold wind blew in from the window of the ruined temple, Zhao Chen keenly noticed that Miss Qi shivered and her body shrank.
She had been running away before, and her coat had been scratched and torn while moving around. Fortunately, the inner coat was relatively intact, so her beauty was not revealed.
But this "historical fog" was in the middle of winter, located in the north of the Great Wall, and the ruins of the temple were covered with a thick layer of white snow. Her clothes were really not warm enough.
In addition, Miss Qi had suffered serious internal injuries at this time, which made it difficult for her Qi to circulate, making it even more difficult to keep out the cold.
Seeing this, Zhao Chen immediately took off his coat and put it on Qi Feimeng's body.
"Thank you..." Miss Qi didn't show any shyness and thanked her directly.
But this warmth is always remembered in my heart.
At this time, a crunching sound suddenly came from outside.
It was the sound of pedestrians' footsteps on the snow.
Qi Feimeng listened for a few seconds, and then said quickly: "At least ten people, two of them are successful.
"There may be targets inside that we want to protect."
"Maybe it's an enemy..." Zhao Chen protected Miss Qi behind him as he spoke, and asked, "How many bullets do you have left?"
"There's only one shot left... I originally wanted to keep it for myself..." Qi Feimeng also took "Silver Moon" in his hand, and then said with a smile, "Your fire gun has helped me a lot." busy."
"Both of us, your 'Toad Light' also helped me." Zhao Chen raised the green ribbon on his wrist, then took out a box of bullets from his arms and handed it to the other party, "Let's see if we can use it? "
He just found this from the leading man of the Chai family.
Seeing this, Miss Qi's eyes lit up, and after a brief inspection, she took out five rounds and pressed them into the "Silver Moon" wheel.
At this time, a group of people from all walks of life, including men and women, old and young, were already carrying their luggage and walking through the snow to the entrance of the ruined temple from far to near.
Then, the leader of the group shouted: "It's difficult to travel on a snowy night. Let's rest for now and start again at dawn."
A puff of white breath came out of his mouth, showing the coldness.
Traveling at night... Wasn't there a taboo against encountering the "Uncanny Realm" at night during the Tang Dynasty? Zhao Chen's heart moved when he heard this, and he once again noticed the difference between Great Tang and Great Xia.
"Okay, I'm fine, but Miss Yunlu can't stand the cold weather." An old man responded with a smile.
"It's Yunlu who is useless... dragging everyone down." A weak female voice sounded, her tone full of apology.
"Ha, we are all people who have been favored by Daxia Zhang during the evil chaos, so naturally we have to protect the young lady." The old man said nonchalantly.
With him taking the lead, the others naturally had no objections and stopped one after another.
The leading middle-aged man in a big cloak pulled out his long sword, took the lead in pushing open the temple door, and came in to explore the way.
He did not dare to be careless and looked at the door from a distance. After a while, he saw Zhao Chen and Qi Feimeng on the side of the statue.
The middle-aged man had opened his eyes and could see at night. At this time, he saw a boy and girl with good looks and temperament hiding in the ruined temple. The girl was still wearing the boy's coat. She was stunned for a few seconds and didn't know what to do. I know what I was thinking about.
It wasn't until the old man behind asked him that he came back to his senses, and then he slightly bowed his hands to Zhao Chen and Qi Feimeng: "I'm staying the night today, so I'm disturbing you two..."
At this time, Zhao Chen also saw clearly the appearance of this middle-aged man, and found a blood-red mole between his eyebrows, which was unforgettable at first sight.
"Excuse me, everyone, this ruined temple does not belong to my family."
Zhao Chen nodded to him and looked at the other people, including the old man, who came in behind the middle-aged man.
Especially the girl in white who is following the old man.
This girl was probably only thirteen or fourteen years old. She had a pretty appearance and a pure temperament. She looked very similar to Zhao Chen, the sister and brother that Miss Qi and Chai Yugong planned to abduct.
But her skin was extremely pale, and she didn't know whether it was from the cold or because she was born that way.
This should be Zhang Yunlu who needs protection, right?
While Zhao Chen was thinking secretly, the middle-aged man with a red mole on his forehead first found an oil lamp with a small hole on the edge on the altar, poured oil into it, lit a fire with flint, and found some dry firewood from somewhere. , lit the pyre.
The ruined temple suddenly became brighter and warmer.
Next, after arranging for a group of people to grill dry food on their own, he took out three sticks of incense from his bag, inserted them in front of the incense table with the sun and stars badge, lit them and bowed respectfully.
His movements are serious and his attitude is serious, as if he is a devout believer in worshiping God.
"People from the Star Club?"
