The Taoist Priest with a grimace thought for a while and then said with a smile: "Senior Xiahou said something serious. Compared with Faqiu Tianguan, how can we and other small sects be called Xiangjia? But since the senior has spoken, the juniors naturally have to pay attention. May I ask where the lama is that senior wants to trap?"
"Panlong Temple to protect the country."
"Is there a fight over there at Protector Panlong Temple?"
"Haven't you all stepped on the plate?" Xia Houxiang interjected.
"..."
The Taoist Priest with a grimace felt that he was being too pretentious, so he simply opened the window and spoke frankly. He leaned back on the chair and said: "The three of us are bound to win this battle, but we have never thought of sharing it with others. Senior Xiahou intervened. Gong, doesn’t it violate a taboo in the world?”
"Don't be anxious, Taoist Master. Faqiumen will not engage in robberies." Xia Houyun replied: "I am here to discuss with you all to see if we can go together."
He Siniang kicked the grimace Taoist priest under the table to signal him to calm down, and then said: "Can I ask the senior, what is in that fight that is worthy of Faqiu Sect Master and Tianguan Yuanliang personally fighting?"
"I don't know, and I have no interest in the gold and silver treasures in the fight. You can take whatever you want when the time comes. I promise not to touch any exposed objects. All we want is to go and have a walk in the fight."
"Hey, it's really new. The Sa family has heard of people who visit gardens and brothels, but this is the first time I've encountered people who don't want to visit ancient tombs. Their hobbies are just different from others. They do what they do and love what they do."
Xia Houyun ignored Luo Laoqi's teasing and continued: "You two don't leave with your hands behind your back. After entering the fight, you should exert your strength and fight for your life. You will never be idle and become a burden to you." .”
"Senior, do you want to step on the plates in the bucket?" the Taoist priest with a grimace asked suddenly, staring at Xia Houyun.
Xia Houyun was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then nodded and replied: "It's true, and if the Taoist Master can guess this, he must have guessed the old man's plan, right?"
"Faqiu Golden Seal." The grim-faced Taoist priest leaned forward and continued: "You want to find out the pattern in Douli, and then set up a trap to ambush Li Tianwen in order to snatch the Faqiu Golden Seal in his hand, right?"
"The Taoist Master is also a smart man. When talking to smart people, I will not beat around the bush. The Faqiu Golden Seal is the most precious treasure of the Faqiu Sect. It has always been the status symbol of the orthodox heavenly official, but now it has been taken as his own by a person with a foreign surname. This It is a great shame for all of us. If we don't get Faqiu's golden seal back, how will I have the face to see my ancestors after my death?"
The Taoist priest with a grimace sneered in his heart, secretly thinking that even at this time, he was talking to the poor Taoist and still hiding it. Your ancestor lost the Faqiu golden seal. You are so ashamed. There is obviously a dispute over the position of the leader of the Faqiu Sect. , the status of Lengtou Qingxia Houxiang is not guaranteed, and he is eager to find the Faqiu Golden Seal to show his legitimacy. Otherwise, with the strength of the Faqiu Sect, as for sending this combination of an old man and a young man out to find the golden seal?
The grim-faced Taoist priest was not interested in the grudges of Faqiu Clan. He already had a grudge against Faqiu Clan and wanted them to fight to the death. As for the ancient tomb in the back of Panlong Temple, he was also very unwilling to let others interfere because He always felt that Xia Houyun had an impure purpose in finding him. Since the other party knew the location of the ancient tomb and also knew that the three of them were going to take action, why didn't they wait for the three of them to cross the bridge before picking up the ready-made ones? Could it be that they were afraid that the three of them would act carelessly and seriously damage the ancient tomb, so they had no choice but to pass through to act as a supervisor?
The grim-faced Taoist priest couldn't figure it out after thinking about it. No one in the room answered and it felt awkward for a while. Seeing this, Xia Houyun hurriedly continued: "I also know that it is difficult to solve the problem, but as far as I know, this tomb is not simple. Taoist priest Are you absolutely sure that it will work?"
Xia Houxiang's expression had been gloomy since the beginning. After hearing this, he finally couldn't bear it any longer. He slapped the table and stood up, saying angrily: "You three are so majestic. Lama Faqiu Menjia, it's always others who beg us." For my sake, I have never seen you so ignorant of praise. Second uncle, please stop talking nonsense with them. If you don't pull them down, we will rob this trip to see what you can do?!"
"Grandnephew, don't be rude!"
"What did you say, bastard?!" Luo Laoqi kicked away the stool and stepped forward angrily.
"Say you're a stick!"
"I'll fuck your grandma..."
"Hey, don't be angry. Don't argue with young people." Xia Houyun saw that the two parties were about to fight if they disagreed, so he quickly stood up to stop them.
The Taoist Priest with a grimace frowned, feeling that Lao Haimen had some evil intentions, and if he didn't figure things out, the tomb between the three of them would definitely not be clean at night. Since there was a quarrel, they might as well just stop doing it and tie up the other party's head. After the interrogation was clear, he thought about giving He Siniang a wink and indicating that she could take advantage of the situation.
He Siniang blinked, secretly put her hands into her sleeves, and then when the two people across the table were not paying attention, she grabbed a handful of powder and sprinkled it over, and at the same time pulled Luo Laoqi and quickly backed away.
The grim-faced Taoist priest also hurriedly covered his mouth and nose and walked around to the door. At this time, Xia Houyun suddenly stood up when he saw something strange. He protected Xia Houxiang with one hand and waved his sleeves with the other hand to dance in the powder. He was known as "Iron" in the world. "Sleeve Ghost Hands", in addition to being good at using various flying knives and hidden weapons, the sharpest weapons are the two sleeves. There are unknown weapons inside the sleeves, whirring when swung, and flying after being swung. Most of the powder was brushed away, but there was still a lot flying into the two's breath.
The powder He Siniang sprayed was her recently improved "Luohan Powder", which is made from ground incense materials. The name was given because when she was making the intoxicating drug, she accidentally sneezed and blew the powder onto Mr. Luo. With Qi's face, such a big man fell to the ground after taking only one sip. The medicine can be said to be very powerful. Compared with the original incense, it saves the time of lighting and waiting, and it is very convenient to use.
Even Luo Laoqi couldn't bear to take a sip of Luo Han Powder. However, Xia Houyun and Xia Houxiang in the field remained as normal after the powder was gone. Xia Houxiang looked even more playful and said disdainfully: " Faqiu Tianguan was drugged, I hope you can think of it!"
It turns out that what the three Grimace Taoist priests didn't know was that Faqiu Tianguan not only had the ability to watch stars and look for dragons, but also possessed various unusual skills. Among them, one that even the Taoist priests who moved mountains couldn't match was the ability to avoid poison. It is said that there is a secret recipe passed down from ancestors in Xiahou's family, which is to use various rare herbs mixed with mugwort, ginger and other substances to make a medicine bed. When the child is very young, he starts to lie down on it every night and apply it on his head. Over time, the medicinal power penetrates into the meridians of the body, and the child can cure the disease. After cultivating a body that is invulnerable to all poisons, there is no need to wear a face covering or take poison-proof pills when fishing, and it will not be hurt at all when encountering corpse gas poisonous gas. It is simply like a walking concentration pill.
The grim-faced Taoist priest naturally couldn't think of this reason. He only thought that Xia Houyun and his two men had taken precautions in advance and took anti-toxic elixirs before coming to the door. He said with a gloomy face: "You really have ulterior motives. You are not afraid of poisons, but you are afraid of steel knives." Aren't you afraid?!" He said before using his wrist crossbow to attack.
"Master Taoist, calm down!" Xia Houyun is a veteran who has been involved in the world for decades. He did not lose his composure at this time and advised: "It is better to make enemies than to dissolve them. Don't take action!"
"What else do you have to say? You came to us to arrest the lama for no reason, and you took the poison-avoiding elixir in advance. What on earth do you have in mind?"
"The two of us have not taken any elixirs, but the Xiahou family has never been afraid of miasma and poisonous gases. Regarding the matter of trapping the lama, we also have many unspeakable secrets. Everyone, please calm down and let me explain to you slowly."
When He Siniang and Luo Laoqi heard this, they both looked at the Taoist with a grimace. The Taoist with a grimace thought for a moment and nodded, then said: "Then please ask Senior Xiahou to reveal the truth. Since we have a crush on the Lama, it is better to be more honest." After that, he put down his wrist and walked back to the table. At the same time, he changed positions with Luo Laoqi intentionally or unintentionally, letting Luo Laoqi sit near the door.
Xia Houyun sat down and sorted out his thoughts, and then said: "The two old men have no intention of harming you. The worries in their hearts are all caused by the secular affairs of the family. It is a good saying that family scandals should not be made public, but it is enough to talk about it now. What's more? This matter is not considered a secret in the world."
As the Taoist with a grimace had expected, something had indeed happened within the Faqiu Sect, but the situation was even worse. Three families of the Xiahou family were now competing for the throne. In addition to the eldest son Xiahou Xiang's faction, there were also his uncle Xiahouqi and fourth uncle Xiahouyu. Two factions.
There are three Tianguan bronze seals in the Faqiu Gate. They were passed down to Xia Houyun’s father’s generation. Because one of his direct descendants left the Mushroom Gate and took away one of the bronze seals, only two were left. These two They were passed on to the eldest Xia Houchao and the third eldest Xiahou Mu respectively. Xiahou Yun and Xia Houyu both had no bronze seals and only had the names of Tianguan.
Xiahou Chao had two sons, the eldest son Xiahou Tong and the second son Xiahou Qi. After the death of Xiahou Chao, the bronze seal of Tianguan was naturally passed on to the eldest son Xiahou Tong. Xiahou Tong died of a sudden illness at the beginning of this year, leaving only There is a son of Xiahou Xiang. Logically speaking, the bronze seal should be passed on to Xiahou Xiang. Xiahou Tong did so. But the bad thing is that Xiahou Xiang has not yet reached the crown. There has never been a bronze seal in Faqiumen. It was a precedent passed down to a minor man, so other people who coveted the position of the sect leader could no longer sit still.
The first is Xiahou Qi, Xiahou Xiang’s uncle. He did not have the Heavenly Official Bronze Seal and was not qualified to compete for the position of the sect leader. However, it happened that Xia Houmu, the holder of another bronze seal, had no heirs and passed the bronze seal to him after his death. , as a result, Xiahou Qi's mind was alive, and he was tit for tat with his nephew in the sect, constantly trying to seize power. Some days ago, he even had a rooster crow and a fight, vowing to oust Xia Houxiang in one fell swoop.
There is also Xia Houyu, Xia Houxiang's fourth uncle. This man is Xia Houyun's younger brother. He is not young, but his ideas are not honest. In addition, he has a strong body and strong fighting skills. Although he does not have a bronze seal on his hand, , but relying on his own qualifications in the sect, he also wanted to get a hand in the competition.
