"Leader Gongsun!" Zhang Zhiliang blurted out, his face turned earth-colored.
This scene was a bit scary in the silent night, revealing an indescribable evil.
Li Yanchu frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable with the purgatory-like scene in front of him.
There was an inexplicable hatred in my heart towards the people behind the scenes.
Damn it!
Wang Captou said: "It seems that the Wuhu Gang has been destroyed first, and the gang leader Sun Hong was killed in a cruel way."
Li Yanchu said: "Someone has set up an evil formation here, which can block the perception of practitioners. The people behind the scenes have good intentions."
Wang Captou asked: "Taoist Master Yanchu, the woman Guo Caiyun we met on the boat was also a person with paper wounds?"
Li Yanchu shook his head: "That woman is evil, and she may not be the same as the person behind the scenes. I think she seems to want to wake us up."
"I don't know the specific reason."
The other party is obviously a strange person who has practiced the art of painting skin. Whether it is an enemy or a friend cannot be determined for the time being.
Li Yanchu guessed that it was probably a stranger who came to Wei City for the elixir.
at this time.
call out!
An eagle with sharp claws flew down from the sky, like a sharp arrow!
"careful!"
Li Yanchu pushed Wang's head away and struck it out with his palm!
Liuyang Jin!
Sharp energy and blood burst out of the body!
The eagle spread its wings and flipped its body in the air, creating a strong gust of wind.
He actually avoided Li Yanchu's Tiangang hand with great dexterity!
"What the hell!"
"Where did the eagle come from!?"
The yamen drew their swords and shouted.
Li Yanchu's eyes darkened, and he was about to kill the suddenly appearing eagle with one strike.
But there was a pop in my ears.
The eagle suddenly disappeared and turned into a piece of skin and slowly fell down.
Li Yanchu stretched out his hand, a force of energy gathered in his hand, and the piece of leather fell into his hand.
The smooth touch made Li Yanchu frown immediately.
"Is it human skin!?" A trace of disgust flashed across Li Yanchu's brows.
But soon he gently rubbed the leather with his fingers and discovered something slightly different.
"What the hell is this!?" Wang Captou put his sword back into his waist and walked over with a frown.
Li Yanchu's eyes showed a thoughtful look, and he was a little surprised. He said to Wang Baotou: "These seem to be the place names of Wei City..."
"Eh!?" Wang Captou's eyes lit up and he stepped forward to take the leather from Li Yanchu's hand.
I found that it was indeed densely packed with place names in Weicheng. After a cursory glance, there were about thirty-four places.
"It seems that the places above are all near the Qingyi Empress Temple." Wang Captou exclaimed.
The two looked at each other.
"Is this the place where the Wuhu Gang buried explosives?" Li Yanchu asked.
Wang Captou took a deep breath and said, "It should be, I'll send someone right away."
Li Yanchu looked into the distance, his eyes seemed to be penetrated by the darkness of night.
"Who is the Guo Caiyun we saw on this ghost ship just now?" His heart was full of curiosity.
The Eagle and Snitch Qiao Wu are obviously both painters, and should be the work of the same person.
When the Jiangbian Wuhu Gang finished their work, Li Yanchu said goodbye to Wang Captou and returned to Weicheng.
Looking at the rich night around me, it is quiet and deep.
Li Yanchu had a flash of worry in his heart for no reason.
Among the strange people currently known to be in Weicheng, in addition to the person behind the paper-sticking man, there should also be a strange person who is good at raising ghosts.
Now there is another painting master whose stance is unclear.
"This legend of the elixir seems really attractive, but I don't know who that Wuling Sanren is." Li Yanchu was skeptical about the legend of the elixir.
Since ancient times, not only ordinary people and strangers have been pursuing immortality, but emperors have also been pursuing immortality.
But no one in this world has heard of anyone who is immortal.
But I'm afraid it will lead to a bloody storm.
And Li Yanchu believed that the Qingyi Empress Temple was not that simple.
Otherwise, the people behind the paper stabbings would not have used the help of the Wuhu Gang to blow up the Tsing Yi Temple with explosives.
"Is it simply to kill someone on an important day, or is it for something in Qingyi Temple?" Li Yanchu asked in his mind.
Everything seemed to be shrouded in fog, leaving him a little confused.
...
The next day!
Bai Hongtu, who was obsessed with the beauty of the court lady, learned that Li Yanchu participated in the annihilation of the Wuhu Gang last night.
The chopsticks in his hand suddenly fell to the ground.
This kind of fame thing has been missed by me!
Bai Hongtu wanted to cry but had no tears.
After taking a look at his handsome and tall self in the bronze mirror, Bai Hongtu suddenly became furious!
"I was led astray by wine and sex, and I missed such an important event!"
"From today onwards, stop drinking!"
.......
Two days later.
The annual Weicheng Qingyi Temple Fair officially begins.
There were lights and colorful decorations everywhere, crowds of people flowed in, and it was very lively.
Lanterns, calligraphy and paintings, copybooks, and lantern riddles can be seen everywhere on the streets.
The copybooks contain mostly poems and songs, which are full of joy.
There was a roar of people.
When Li Yanchu was walking on the street, he noticed that street vendors were popping up like mushrooms after a rain.
Candied haws, masks, candy figures, various desserts, rouge and gouache, the streets look lively.
Standing on the stone bridge, you can see the flower shops in the river, which are extremely exquisite. There are more than just high-spirited young men and scholars on them, drinking and talking happily.
You can also see charming and flamboyant women in thin clothes, which makes people unable to take their eyes away.
The entrance to the Tsing Yi Empress Temple is crowded with people coming in and out.
They are all foreign tourists who come here to worship the Tsing Yi Empress.
The Empress in Tsing Yi is very efficacious. Whether she is seeking fame, marriage, or peace at home, there are legends of her efficacious effects.
Li Yanchu walked around and looked at the lively scene, and the corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously.
The sound of vendors hawking their wares can be heard all the time.
Li Yanchu took out a piece of silver and bought a bunch of candied haws. He bit into half of one and held it in his mouth. The sweet and sour taste was very delicious.
The vendor found ninety-nine copper plates, tied them into a string, and handed them to Li Yanchu.
Li Yanchu didn't pay attention at first and put it into his arms casually.
But Li Yanchu suddenly frowned and hurriedly took out the string of copper plates.
Look through it carefully.
Sure enough, one of the copper coins was stained with blood!
Scarlet red looked particularly dazzling in Li Yanchu's eyes!
Li Yanchu took a deep breath and put the string of copper coins in his arms again.
He glanced around, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.
This kind of blood money is invisible to ordinary people. In the eyes of the hawker, this copper plate is just an ordinary copper coin.
Only a Taoist like Li Yanchu can see this.
"Strange, why is there blood money circulating near Qingyi Temple?" Li Yanchu said in his heart.
Copper coins stained with blood have also become unjust money among the people, and are usually considered to be an ominous sign.
