A few of them walked slowly to the side of the stone door. They saw that the stone door was half open and half was still ajar. At this time, they happened to walk to the half-hidden stone door, and the noise inside became louder and louder. It's becoming clearer.
I could only hear a few people inside still chattering:
"Hey, Elder Chen, when I went down the mountain yesterday, I heard someone said that the second boss of Daojiazhai was captured by ghosts. When I found out, the kid we kidnapped on the boat a few days ago was the second boss of Daojiazhai. Master, do you think this won't bring us any trouble?" one of them asked.
But I heard the man called Elder Chen reply: "Deacon Wu, you don't have to worry, we have been catching the children without anyone noticing. It's been more than a year, aren't they still safe? Besides, the mountains are haunted. Whose child should we arrest? The children in her Daojiazhai village are not immortals, so can they avoid being captured by ghosts? What does this child captured by ghosts have to do with us? Well, it doesn’t matter!!" Elder Chen finished, He gave the deacon a solemn look that said, "You understand."
Elder Chen picked up the wine jar and started shouting again: "Come, come, come, drink, drink."
Seeing this, the other two people had no choice but to pick up the wine jar and drink it down again.
At this time, Elder Chen saw that the two people still had worried looks on their faces, and continued to comfort them: "You two! Just relax. When the great elder has mastered his magical power and no longer needs to catch children, let's go down the mountain again. If we can just find a Taoist priest or a goddess to perform the magic dance to drive away ghosts, then there will no longer be any ghosts catching children. The villagers at the foot of the mountain will still think that we asked the goddess to perform the magic dance to drive away ghosts. Not only will they not think that we did it, they will think that we asked the goddess to drive away the ghost, and they are grateful to us!"
When Deacon Wu and another deacon heard this, they all clasped their fists at Elder Chen to congratulate and praise him. Among them, the elder named Wu said: "As expected of Elder Chen, he can come up with such a clever plan. After such operation, we I have become a benefactor to the villagers at the foot of the mountain, and they will all be grateful to my Xuantian Sect."...
These three people are members of the Southwest Xuantian Cult.
The leader is Chen Changxi, the last elder of the Xuantian Sect. The other two are deacons of the Xuantian Sect. One is called Wu Zhang, who is the deacon of the great elder Wen Jinchun, and the other is called Peng Kun, who is Elder Chen. of deacons.
The reason why Chen Changxi became the elder of the Xuantian Sect was because the great elder Wen Jinchun took care of him, so this person only followed the great elder of the Xuantian Sect, Wen Jinchun.
The distribution of Xuantian's followers is similar to that of many sects in the world.
The person with the highest authority is the leader Jing Zhaoyue.
Next is the elder seat, from the chief elder to the last seat, the power decreases in order.
Below the elders are the protectors. The status of the mountain protector Hai Pingchuan is nominally lower than that of the elders. In fact, his martial arts is ranked above several elders, so his status is not necessarily lower than the last few elders.
Furthermore, under the guardian of the mountain are the guardians of the teachings, that is, the four heroes of the Demon Sect, Su Dantong and Yin.
Thirdly, under the guardians are the hall masters, such as Hall Master Li whom Xiao Yu and his party met in Kangzhou. Hall masters are spread all over the Central Plains and are the main personnel of the Xuantian Sect in charge of various branches.
Finally, there are the deacons. Deacons are the servants in the church who are responsible for obeying the orders of the elders. Their duty is to run errands for the elders and manage the affairs of each presbytery. Its status is only slightly higher than that of ordinary church members.
...
Dao Qingqing and others stood at the door. After hearing the conspiracy of the people inside, they also heard several people laughing loudly. They seemed to be very proud of the dirty things they had done.
Dao Qingqing pulled out the sword with a 'swish' sound, Xiaoyu pulled out the sword, and the other people's swords had no scabbards and were holding them clearly.
"Who!!" Elder Chen Chen Changxi heard the noise in the secret room behind the stone gate, and yelled at the stone gate here.
With the light coming from inside, Dao Qingqing made a 'shh' gesture to everyone, signaling them not to speak.
Xiaoyu and the others understood, but didn't say anything. They had their weapons ready and waited quietly.
Chen Changxi looked at the side of the stone door for a long time. Finally, he felt a little uneasy and said to Peng Kun beside him: "Deacon Peng, go and take a look."
Peng Kun was enjoying the chicken legs. He and Deacon Wu both heard Chen Changxi yelling at the stone gate. In an instant, they both frowned and looked at the side of the stone gate, but there was no movement again.
"Elder Chen, what's wrong?" Peng Kun asked.
Chen Changxi replied: "I told you to go and have a look, just go and have a look. What nonsense? I heard something moving behind the door."
Peng Kun nodded, Gulu took a sip of wine, then got up and walked towards the stone door. He didn't think anyone would find him here, so he took the chicken leg in one hand and a sword by his side in the other, wiped his mouth, He walked slowly towards the stone door here, because in his eyes, coming to see this door was just a formality, and it was definitely impossible for anyone to find this place. After all, in the entire Xuantian Sect, apart from the great elder and the leader, they are the only three people who know this secret passage.
Peng Kun was drunk. As soon as he walked to the door, he muttered: "How can there be any movement behind this door, unless it's a ghost!" As soon as he finished speaking, Dao Qingqing's knife was stuck on his neck.
As a result, before Peng Kun had time to lift the sword in his hand, Zhou Fei, who was behind Dao Qingqing, came up and grabbed it. As for the chicken drumstick in his hand, it fell directly to the ground.
Dao Qingqing held Peng Kun, who had his mouth wide open in surprise, and slowly walked out with a few people.
When Chen Changxi and Wu Zhang saw this, they hurriedly picked up the long swords at hand. Not caring about the beggar's chicken and the wine jar placed on the stone table, they quickly stood up and pointed their swords at Dao Qingqing and Xiaoyu. .
"Who are these experts? Why are you trespassing in the Xuantian Sect's forbidden area?" Chen Changxi is wearing a long-sleeved robe. He is in his fifties, with a bun on his head and two long flowing hair on the temples. People who don't know his nature suddenly notice At first glance, I felt that this person was a hermit in the mountains.
As for Wu Zhang and Peng Kun, they were dressed as ordinary believers, wearing yellow clothes and carrying long swords.
Dao Qingqing smiled coldly and replied: "Why did you catch and kill my brother, and now you want to pretend to be ignorant? I am the leader of the Dao family, Dao Qingqing!"
Chen Changxi smiled, pretending to be confused and replied: "It turns out to be the leader of our neighbor's Dao family village. Master Dao family, what's wrong? Your biological brother was killed? Master Dao family, we can't rely on our Xuan to do this kind of thing." Head of the Tianjiao, we Xuantianji people have always been at peace with the residents of the surrounding towns, so it is not appropriate for you to slander us like this."
Dao Qingqing didn't want to hear this old guy's quarrel at all, and scolded directly: "You bitch, stop talking nonsense, what you just said, my mother and several of my brothers heard it clearly, and we are going to do it today I’ll arrest some of you and go to my brother’s grave to give him an explanation!”
Xiaoyu was worried about Xiao Xiao's safety, and without waiting for Chen Changxi to reply, he directly stabbed Chen Changxi with his sword. The lightness of Qi Lingbu and the dozens of sword moves of the 'Yunjian Jue' that he had just learned were perfect for practicing.
