These words were like a hot iron rod, suddenly burning Yun Kong's brain.
The incident at Qingfeng Lake seven years ago almost cost him his life, and now those three people are here again.
The nightmare was like a tiger suddenly attacking, and Yunkong was completely panicked.
"No, it's more important to save you first." He was a little lost and had to pick the important things first.
"Yunkong!" Chi Chengzi became anxious, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he fell to the ground hard.
Pedestrians in the market suddenly became noisy. Some people were heard shouting and cursing in the distance, and some were crying out in pain.
Because there were three people who roughly pushed away the people in front of them and quickly approached towards the clouds.
Their steaming hostility heated up the air.
Before Yun Kong could react, three people emerged from the crowd.
These three people all had no hair on their heads and faces.
Lian Chengzi quickly walked around behind Yun Kong and grabbed Yun Kong's hands.
Xu Chengzi lay down to see if Chi Chengzi was still breathing.
Ban Chengzi struck Yun Kong in the chest with his palm.
But a half-finished child is a half-completed child after all.
He only slapped half a hand, then smiled at Yun Kong and went to get Yun Kong's luggage.
"Bastard!" Lian Chengzi yelled angrily and kicked Ban Chengzi over. Xu Chengzi immediately turned around and completed Ban Chengzi's palm.
Yunkong still couldn't figure out what Xu Chengzi had done to him.
All he knew was that during these few seconds of chaos, his vision went dark, and his limbs, five senses, and all his emotions were plunged into a mire.

In the seventh year of Zhenghe, on the sixth day of the first lunar month of spring, the emperor issued an edict.
The general idea of the edict was that Taoist priests from all over the world would not have to go down the steps to greet the officials, and they would be exempted from taxation, apportionment, loans and demands on Taoist temples. Not only that, when meeting Taoist priests, supervisors and governors of various prefectures and counties must follow the same method as meeting elders.
In this way, the status of Taoist priests was greatly improved.
Some thoughtful Taoist priests took the opportunity to build their own Taoist temples in order to find a stable place.
This "Liuhe View" comes from this.
Liuhe Temple was originally an abandoned old house that had no owner for a long time. After the emperor's edict was issued, a wooden sign with the word "Liuhe Temple" was quietly hung up. It turned out that it had been occupied by someone long ago and now it was renamed Taoist Temple. .
Few of the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple have ever visited the Taoist temple. Although the three people who come and go on weekdays wear Taoist robes, their appearance is terrifying and they have no hair. It is unknown what kind of strange people they are.
The three of them didn't seem like good people, so no one dared to approach them.
In this way, Liuheguan becomes even more mysterious.

Yun Kong found that not only was he not dead, but he was not even seriously injured.
I just feel a little depressed in my chest, which is heavy and uncomfortable.
He found himself lying on the bed with another person lying next to him.
He sat up and looked, it was Chi Chengzi.
The dim light of the setting sun filtered through the small window, and the red cloth was covered like a sheet, making it look like a pink and white mummy.
His breathing was smooth, and his breath was rancid.
Yun Kong looked around and determined that he was in a small room. There was nothing in the room except the wooden bed.
The dull air froze in the room, filled with a hint of sulfur.
Yun Kong's mind was confused and confused.
Just when he was about to start to figure out the situation, the door was pushed open and a tall figure squeezed in.
Yun Kong has never seen this person before.
But the three people behind this man were the people Yun Kong least wanted to see.
"Are you Yun Kong?" the man asked.
Yun Kong replied vaguely: "No, no, I am a rain worker..."
"Rainman?"
"Master," Lian Chengzi said, "that's the name this bastard made nonsense of when he met us a few years ago."
Obviously this person is their master, Master Longbi.
The master of Longbi nodded slightly, and stared at Yunkong with his sharp eyes under his sword-shaped brows, Yunkong suddenly regained consciousness.
"Is your master okay?"
"...Yes, Master is quite strong. I...Junior only met him five years ago." At this time, Yun Kong had woken up for eight or nine minutes, and then he hurriedly got out of bed, and respectfully held his hands in his hands and said: "Junior Yun Kong, I have met my senior under Polu's door."
"Well," Master Longbi frowned, "Why does Po Lu always accept some dishonest disciples?"
Yun Kong remained silent, secretly taking a breath and running it inside his body for a week.
"Don't Po Lu have a disciple named Yan Kong?"
"It's my senior brother."
"Didn't he become a Taoist priest because he couldn't study well?" Long Bi's tone was as cold as water, which made Yun Kong feel disgusted. However, after thinking about it, he had indeed never heard of his senior brother's Taoist origins since he was a child.
"Where are you from?"
"Both of my parents died when I was young, and my master pitifully took me in."
Long Bi nodded, and then slowly looked away: "Since we are disciples of Brolu, we have to sell our friendship... Come on, you three!"
"Yes, Master." Lian Chengzi, Xu Chengzi, and Ban Chengzi responded in unison.
"Don't be rude to Yun Kong again."
"Yes, Master."
"Go, get some food and drink to calm Yun Kong's shock."
"Yes, Master."
The three guys who usually did many evil things did not dare to disobey the master of Longbi at this moment. They turned around and hurried to prepare.
Chi Chengzi was in bed yet to wake up.
The face of the man on the dragon wall suddenly softened a lot. He looked at Chi Chengzi with care and his tone became very kind.
He called Chi Chengzi's name with the same kindness as to his son: "Chi Chengzi, he..."
He probably wanted to tell Yun Kong something.
But Yun Kong couldn't hear what he wanted to say next.
Because before he finished speaking those four words, his eyes suddenly rolled, his temples jumped, and his tone immediately became fierce: "He has been empowered by the Five Thunders by me, and he is just waiting to die!"
Yunkong saw the changes in the people on Longbi and was confused about the situation for a while.
But the expressions of the people on the dragon wall are very clear.
His face didn't turn, but his eyes kept glancing back.
Behind him is the door, and outside it is the sultry heat of summer.
Yun Kong didn't know what the people on the dragon wall were looking at.
There were footsteps outside the door.
It is the sound of four legs.
But as they approached the door, the sound of two feet was added.
Yun Kong's heart suddenly felt like a window had opened.

Liuheguan often purchases a variety of medicinal stones in large quantities, as revealed by an apprentice at Ma's Pharmacy.
An apprentice at Ma's Pharmacy said that cinnabar is the most consumed, and there are also realgar, rat poison, azurite, Yuanwu stone, etc.
In fact, Liuhe Temple did not just purchase these medicines from Ma's Pharmacy. The three strange Taoists from the Taoist Temple visited almost all the pharmacies in Jiangning Prefecture.
I really don't know what they are planning to do.
To put it simply, Yunkong was under house arrest.
He and Chi Chengzi were imprisoned in the original small room.
Chi Chengzi still didn't wake up, and her breathing became weaker and weaker.
Looking back, Yunkong has been locked up for four days, so Chi Chengzi has not had any water for four days.
All of Yun Kong's belongings were with him, and they returned them to him in full.
Apparently, they weren't worried about him running away.
They were sure there was no way he could escape.
Yun Kong paced back and forth in the room, his mind busy thinking.
He thought about what he had seen and heard these days.
When the three disciples of Longbi Master brought the food that day, he took the plate with the food from their hands.
He accidentally saw Lian Chengzi's hand.
The hands are very red.
Flushing.
He thought about it carefully and found out that in fact Xu Chengzi, Ban Chengzi, and even the people on Longbi all had flushed backs of their hands.
He had never seen Master Longbi before, but he felt there was a trace of madness in Longbi's eyes.
He didn't know what the four masters and disciples were doing at the moment.
Chi Chengzi was the third disciple of Master Longbi. When he was hunting down the escaped servant "Little Lizi" many years ago, he burned the sword technique stolen by Little Lizi.
That was his master's favorite sword technique.
He was tantamount to betraying his master.
Chi Chengzi's three senior brothers were chasing him. It seemed that not only did they catch him, but the people at Longbi also gave him a heavy punishment.
Five Thunder Initiation!
Yun Kong looked back at Chi Chengzi. His chest was wrapped in a white cloth without medicine, and the dry blood had tightly adhered the skin to the cloth.
However, there was once a trace of care in the eyes of the man on Longbi.
Although only a trace.
Yun Kong gradually clarified some clues from this thread.
Oh no...more.
He smelled something strange every day.
The strange smell is a mix of several different ingredients.
The most obvious one is the smell of sulfur.

The people on Longbi spent most of their money purchasing materials, and had to make do with other tools.
He filled a large iron basin with sand, lit a fire under the basin, and boiled the sand until it was hot.
