"Why are there so many side roads in the alleys of Wucheng? It's making the employees dizzy! Where the hell are we now!" A voice came from the end of the alley.
Yi Xiaodao was sleeping lightly. As soon as the sound came, he woke up and looked out through the broken door.
At the end of the alley, I saw two men dressed as day laborers walking towards this side. However, they were carrying knives on their waists... There was a night curfew. These two could still show off so openly, and they were carrying knives. Who were they? You can imagine.
"Xiao Dao, what's wrong?" Xiang Lian'er, who was clenched in fists and feet and slightly more alert than He Yue'er, was awakened at this moment and saw Yi Xiao Dao lying on the door, so she asked aloud.
Yi Xiaodao hurriedly ran over softly: "Quickly, wake up He Yue'er, someone is coming. Let's hide for a while."
But in such a big temple, where can I hide? Only the statue of the Earth God was behind them, but those two people could have spotted them if they took just two more steps. Yi Xiaodao stared at the small temple, frowning and thinking hard.
The two girls also knew that the situation was urgent, but they couldn't disturb Yi Xiaodao. Finally, the timid He Yue'er couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Xiaodao, what should we do? How about running away?"
When Yi Xiaodao heard this, his eyes lit up and he stared at He Yue'er: "Yue'er, it's up to you to escape this time!"
Both He Yue'er and Xiang Lian'er didn't understand what Yi Xiaodao meant. Xiang Lian'er was only proficient in fists and kicks. She might not be able to win against an ordinary man, let alone a soldier who licked blood from his sword. Not to mention He Yue'er, no amount of He Yue'er would be enough to fight these two soldiers.
"I...I don't know how to do martial arts..." He Yue'er also felt timid.
Yi Xiaodao shook his head: "Who said we were going to take action?"
Xiang Lian'er was impatient and asked first: "Don't show off, how can you fight with wits?"
Yi Xiaodao said: "This is the Earth Temple. It has been abandoned for a long time and is overgrown with weeds... Do you still remember the first time I met He Yue'er and I was scared by her 'father'?"
He Yue'er was clear about it, but she was still a little worried: "What if they still..."
Yi Xiaodao patted his chest: "I'm here, don't worry. I'll teach you how to say it!"
"It's really unlucky. There is a Earth Temple in front of us. We encountered it this late at night and it is in such a state of ruin..." A soldier complained as he looked ahead in the moonlight.
"Why don't you go in and take a look?" Another person who was a little more discerning suggested when he saw the Earth Temple.
"Okay, let's take a look." The man nodded in agreement.
"Hehehe, no one has been here for a long time. What good things did you bring?" An old voice came from the temple, echoing in the dark night.
"?"
The two looked at each other.
"Do you think...could it be..."
"It shouldn't be so unlucky. Is someone playing tricks on me..."
"Why do I think...we are just so unlucky..."
"If we don't go in, how about we just open the door and take a look, and then leave?"
"Okay...listen to you..."
At this time, another woman's shrill laughter came from the temple: "Good come, good come, Dad, they are coming~"
"How about... let's go..." The timid soldier was already crying slightly.
"Don't be afraid... don't be afraid... these are the voices of a man and a woman. What we are looking for... aren't they also a man and two women? I guess, even if they are not... three of them, they are still a pair of wild mandarin ducks... We are having a private meeting. We Go and break them, and then... knock them off." Another soldier who was bolder also began to speak intermittently.
The words "knock one stroke" seemed to give the two of them a little more courage. The two of them clenched their waist knives and moved forward little by little.
"Dad, sister, I'm hungry, I want to eat meat!" This time it was a child's voice...
"This...how should I say this?" The timid soldier was completely frightened and lost his mind. He pulled the bold one and asked anxiously.
"I...I...this...this may be...a family of three...living...living here..." He continued to explain boldly, but this time he did not dare to leave.
When the timid person heard that the explanation was reasonable, he had already given up thinking. At this time, he was dragging the bold one forward little by little.
"Old man, why are you sharpening your knife? Just bite it and enjoy it raw!" Another old woman's voice came from.
"..."
The two of them stopped discussing and dragged each other, sliding inch by inch because they could no longer lift their feet...
"Hahahahaha..."
Just when the two of them arrived in front of the temple gate, a burst of laughter suddenly came from inside. The laughter was noisy and chaotic. There were all kinds of people, men, women, old and young. It felt like there were dozens of people inside, but looking at this small ruined temple, it was hard to stay there at all. Not satisfied with dozens of people…
Now the two of them couldn't hold on any longer. They turned around and ran away. They didn't care if the knife fell from their belts. They cried and yelled, rolled and crawled away.
"Cough cough cough cough..." He Yue'er coughed violently in the ruined temple.
Xiang Lian'er quickly helped her pat her back: "Sister Yue'er, thank you for your hard work."
He Yue'er shook her head: "I'm fine, just scare them away. It's all thanks to Yi Xiaodao, he thought of this method."
Yi Xiaodao scratched his head: "If you hadn't had this ability, I wouldn't have been able to do anything. It's all thanks to you..."
"Is there no one to thank me, little old man? I did my best just now, little old man, I laughed so hard..." an old man's voice came from the corner.
"Who!" As soon as Yi Xiaodao heard a voice in the corner behind him, he immediately turned around, protected the two girls behind him, and stared at the place where the voice came from.
A little old man stood up in the corner: "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, I'm not a bad person."
There is someone in the corner! It took so long and no three people noticed it!
Yi Xiaodao quietly asked the two girls: "When we came in during the day, there must be no one here. Later, when I went out to look for food, was he here?"
"No, after you went out... no one came in at all..." Xiang Lian'er was so scared that she couldn't speak. He Yue'er was also very scared, so she reluctantly replied at this time.
At this time, the old man opened the door and walked out. He turned back and shouted towards the temple: "Young man, I came while you were sleeping. The moonlight is nice. Do you want to come out and have a look?"
When Yi Xiaodao heard the old man's invitation, he weighed it in his mind and stepped forward to go out.
He Yue'er quickly grabbed him: "Be careful, there may be a trap..."
Yi Xiaodao held down He Yue'er's hand: "He would have done it long ago. Don't worry, I'll go take a look."
"Who are you!" Yi Xiaodao pushed open the temple door and came out, then closed the temple door with his backhand, staring at the old man and asked.
Through the moonlight, I could see clearly that the old man was short in stature, his clothes were ragged, and he looked like a beggar.
The old man turned his head and glanced at Yi Xiaodao, and stretched out his hand to put his hand on his shoulder. Seeing that the old man was silent, Yi Xiaodao suddenly stretched out his hand and wanted to step back. He didn't want to take a step back, but the old man still put a hand on his shoulder.
Yi Xiaodao felt annoyed and shook his shoulders to shake them off. Unexpectedly, the old man's hands seemed to be stuck to his shoulders and he couldn't shake them off no matter what. Yi Xiaodao held his breath and concentrated, and tried to exert force, but he felt that the old man's hand transmitted more force, and his entire shoulder could not move at all.
Yi Xiaodao finally gave up and stared at the old man closely: "What do you want?"
The old man smiled "hehe" and said: "Little old man, I noticed a little bit of evil energy, so I followed it over to have a look. I didn't expect it to be a little beggar."
"I don't understand what you are talking about. I am indeed a beggar. I don't know about demonic energy or anything like that." Yi Xiaodao confessed.
The old man put his hand down: "Of course you don't know. By the time you find out, it will be too late. For the sake of all beggars, old man, I will give you a fortune. Young man, take it!"
Yi Xiaodao didn't have the intention of tomorrow's old man, but saw the old man's right hand suddenly burst into flames, and he slapped it with a fire palm, hitting Yi Xiaodao's chest. Yi Xiaodao couldn't help it, he was hit on the door leaf, and fell into the temple together with the dilapidated wooden door.
Xiang Lian'er and He Yue'er were shocked when they saw this scene. They quickly ran to Yi Xiaodao, and a trace of scarlet flowed from the corner of Yi Xiaodao's mouth.
"Why do you hit people! We didn't do anything bad!" Seeing that Yi Xiaodao was seriously injured, He Yue'er glared at the old man and yelled at the old man.
As soon as Xiang Lian'er saw that the person coming was a human and not a ghost, she lost her timidity. She bowed and lunged, ready to rush forward and fight with all her strength. However, Yi Xiaodao called out, "Xian Lian'er, don't move. You can't beat him."
The old man ignored the two women's reactions and said with a smile: "A single spark can start a prairie fire. Young man, I'm waiting for that day for you. Hahaha..." With that, he turned and walked towards the alley.
At this moment, Yi Xiaodao felt as if there was a ball of fire in his chest, burning slowly. He resisted the burning sensation and said, "Xianlian'er, go and take a look..."
Xiang Lian'er chased her out of the temple gate. At this time, there was no one outside. Under the moonlight, there was no one in the streets. Apart from the occasional sound of crickets, there was no movement at all.
"Xiao Dao, how do you feel?" He Yue'er helped Yi Xiao Dao wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and asked as he stood up.
Yi Xiaodao closed his eyes and said nothing. He only felt that the fire seemed to be unquenchable and was forging his internal organs in detail.
Suddenly, a flash of blood gradually filled Yi Xiaodao's eyes. He Yue'er looked at it and felt a little scared, but she still hugged Yi Xiaodao and dared not let go. She shouted to Xiang Lian'er, "Xian Lian'er, why don't we go find him?" Let’s be a doctor.”
"No...use..." Yi Xiaodao spat out two words from between his teeth. The blood in his eyes had not yet spread to his entire eyes. Yi Xiaodao only felt that the fire was rising, burning his eyes crazily. Compared with the burning sensation in his chest, A hundred times better.
He Yue'er didn't know what to do, she just felt that Yi Xiaodao's whole body was tense. He must be suffering from great pain at this time, so she had no choice but to hug Yi Xiaodao tightly, and kept rubbing all parts of his body, hoping to heal him. Relieve the pain of Yixiao Knife.
Xiang Lian'er brought the curtain and put it on Yi Xiaodao's body. She also helped Yi Xiaodao rub it.
Finally, the blood in Yi Xiaodao's eyes began to slowly dissipate, and finally disappeared without a trace.
"Xiao Dao, how are you? Are you feeling better?" Feeling Yi Xiao Dao's whole body relax, He Yue'er asked quickly.
Yi Xiaodao didn't answer. He felt it carefully and felt that there was a trace of fire in his chest, but there was no burning or pain.
"Okay...I'm fine." Yi Xiaodao took a long breath and said tiredly.
"Then why did the old man hit you?" Xiang Lian'er asked.
Yi Xiaodao stared at the place where the old man stood outside the door, a little lost: "I don't know either..."
