Another person died yesterday. Apparently, judging from the situation in the past few days, one person died every day. The person who died this time was Li Ji of Huzhou Plum Blossom Temple, an old Taoist priest who had practiced Taoism for a century. This time, he was ordered by the master to lead several disciples to find out what was going on. No one thought that he would be attacked by such a poisonous hand.
The corpse was at the place where Jiugong Yan and Mo Wanren fought at midnight the day before yesterday. Several Taoists who went to clean up found it this morning.
This time, there was no need to go there in the middle of the night. Zhang Yunji, the Taoist boy who came to deliver the food, was not in a hurry to leave this time, and deliberately told a few people about the condition of the deceased.
Not surprisingly, the death situation was still the same as the previous two people. It was unknown whether they were frightened to death or killed by a single blow while frightened.
Three people died one after another, again and again, and no longer three, so frequently, even this group of Taoist people with different thoughts began to panic no matter how they searched for the lotus pond that was related to the fate of the Taoist sect.
The murderer committed crimes continuously without leaving any trace, and his killing methods were unpredictable. The appearance of the deceased was so weird that the whole Wudang Mountain was shrouded in strangeness and people were panicked.
The Taoist monks in the mountains have more or less retreated, even though they are burdened with unspeakable dangers.
"Mission" is mostly about whether you can get this coveted fortune lotus through opportunism and enjoy the continuous blessings of Taoism from now on. But, is life or the name more important?
Who knows if I will be the next to die. Just plan to return to the plan, but no one took the lead to go down the mountain.
The first person who couldn't sit still was Zhang Jiue. This Wudang mountain guard who had just been promoted to the head general for seven or eight days was definitely not as plain as he appeared at the moment.
He obviously looked much more haggard than the previous two days. In the middle of the night, he felt that this old Taoist priest was so pitiful.
In fact, it’s not surprising that Zhang Jiu’e came over to watch the midnight shift, but I never thought that his first words would be
"I implore the Third Young Master to take action to save Wudang", this sentence has some weight. Rather than staying here and helping his uncle Yue Qingfeng by doing whatever he can, the midnight shift is not just for his sister.
"Coercion" continues
"Repaying" the debt owed back then was not just for the nameless, unmarried child bride of the family. A large part of the reason why he agreed to let his sister stay to help Yue Qingfeng was a good thing.
For the past three years, I have been telling my sister to mind her own business. In fact, I am a restless person at heart. It is more interesting to join in the fun than to watch it.
However, being begged for by one of the most famous Taoist sect leaders in the world, whether it was late at night or late at night, it was rare for the two siblings to have the same mind this time, and they did not want to do this deliberately because of the burden.
But for whatever reason, even Ye Xiayou, who was usually the most eloquent, swallowed the words when they reached his lips, not knowing how to refuse.
Not to mention it was midnight, I was already in it, and everything I did in the past few days was more or less related to what happened here.
In the middle of the night, I suddenly felt that this old Taoist priest was also a man who had matured with age. He knew that he would not refuse and still made such a request. This was really a good calculation.
Ye Haoyou naturally understood that she did not have the problem of looking forward and backward. She spoke bluntly when she had something to say: "At a time when there are traitors who are doing evil and trap Wudang in an unkind and unjust situation, we happened to catch up, and our Captain Yue from Junzhou and We have some connections, and we can help each other naturally. The leader of Jiu'e doesn't need to go out of his way to inform others. It's just that one of us is blind, the other is half-disabled, and two great monks can't count on it. I just hope God has eyes and won’t let evil people succeed again.” How could Zhang Jiue not hear the unspoken meaning in these words?
But they just said in a roundabout way that they stayed here just to help out of morality and affection. How far they can do it depends on God's will. They don't have to bear this responsibility just because Wudang asked for it.
Having to praise this woman's sharp words from the bottom of his heart, Zhang Jiue laughed and said: "Of course, as the second lady said, this is obviously someone trying to harm our sect. How can the third young master, a chivalrous person, stand by and watch?" ? What a poor Taoist!" The old Taoist justified himself, reaching out and not hitting the smiling man, and Ye Hao could not say anything.
Zhang Jiue added: "I don't know what Captain Yue's plans are in detail. I just gave a few hasty explanations. I wonder if the second lady can give me the details so that I can make preparations in advance." In fact, the night before yesterday The arrangement was just a matter of playing it by ear. They just asked Yue Qingfeng to find a reason to leave Wudang, and then quietly investigate. After that, they followed the plan yesterday to see if Yue Qingfeng could use the trap he overheard to lure Jiugongyan into taking the bait. Let's see if we can find out the current killing situation involving Taoist sects in the world.
To be honest, it's hard to say whether there is any connection between them. It's just a matter of taking it step by step. There is no specific plan.
Ye Xiayou said: "These matters are all under the full control of Captain Yue. We don't know the specific situation. We will do whatever he arranges." As soon as he retreated from 625, Zhang Jiue couldn't help but be speechless.
Why did my great-uncle ask me to come to see these two siblings? He also had to talk to people nicely and act like he was begging for help.
This is not bad, it is obviously like having a shaved head and a hot head, and a hot face and a cold butt. It seems that there is no way to ask about the exact arrangements for the government officials from here. Zhang Jiu'e, who suddenly had this idea, stood up to leave, but saw him quietly coming out with gestures in the middle of the night.
Arrangements were made for Yishui to stay, and Ye Sangen left without waiting for Zhang Jiue. As if under surveillance, the short and fat Yishan followed closely, and he was more conscientious than the followers of other wealthy families.
"Third Young Master, this is..." Looking at Ye Xiayou who seemed to be unaware of the situation in the room, Zhang Jiue looked puzzled.
Ye Sangen smiled bitterly and shook his tightly wrapped arm, saying nothing. On the way, Zhang Jiue had a heart-to-heart talk with Ye Sangeng, saying that he wanted to persuade various sects to go down the mountain as soon as possible. Being together like this really gave the murderer an opportunity.
It is inconvenient to give too many suggestions for this night. People's words can be frightening and people's hearts can be punished. Now it is about the Taoist Qi Luck Lotus. With the interests at hand, who would be willing to leave?
After informing Zhang Jiue, who was so busy these days that his heels hit the back of his head, he led a mountain to the back mountain at midnight.
But halfway, he met Shi Gandang of the Taishan sect. Still looking like he couldn't wake up, this young Taoist priest who practiced the most mysterious Taoist method stood on the path leading to the back mountain with his hands behind his back, listlessly, as if waiting for someone.
Obviously waiting for the third watch of the night. Because after seeing Ye Sangeng, he narrowed his eyes, smiled, and waved his hand: "Here we come." Apparently, Ye Sangeng was stunned by the other party's familiar greeting, but he still responded out of politeness. Said: "Taoist Master Shi, are you waiting for me?"
"Yes." Without hiding anything, the young Taoist priest nodded and said,
"Otherwise?" With a natural expression and a natural answer, Ye Sangen didn't know how to answer the question at the moment.
He stretched his body with his hands behind his back, twisted his body, and made a crisp sound. Immediately afterwards, he completely lost his sleepiness. Shi Gan asked: "Let's go and see it together?" He had only heard of it. The master of the Taishan sect's mysterious mind skills, Ye San Geng, was stunned at how quickly the young Taoist's energy and spirit changed. Before he could speak, the great monk glared and took a step forward, fiercely.
"What are you going to do?" He looked like an evil servant bullying others. Shi Gandang was quite amused by the great monk's vigilance, as if he had changed into a different person, he guided the surrounding Qi around the world without hesitation, filling it with energy, making people feel like a spring breeze.
"Huh?" Although the monk who is as strong as Yishan is not very sensitive to cold or heat from the outside world, the cold wind in the mountains can make him feel a touch of warmth that makes him physically and mentally comfortable. How? Don't you think it's novel?
However, the great monk immediately blocked Ye Sangen behind him, opened his eyes angrily, and shouted: "Demon magic!" As he spoke, the tyrannical body that was trained like a martial artist outside the mountains suddenly burst out with force. The breath made the unsuspecting Ye Sangen stagger.
Naturally, he could feel the strong hostility of the other party. Shi Gandang pointed his toes on the ground like an eagle spreading his wings, swept his body back more than ten feet, and stood on a rock, with an extremely elegant posture.
In the middle of the night, he grabbed the great monk who was surrounded by soldiers. Why did this monk love fighting so much? Knowing that he couldn't control this arrogant strength, he was afraid of accidentally hurting the third watch of the night, so he didn't move up the mountain, staring at the young Taoist priest in white,
"Come here!" Ye Sangeng said hurriedly: "You can calm down for a while." Seeing the monk in front of him being so out of touch, Shi Gandang didn't say anything. He saw the monk being stopped by Ye Sangeng as if he were watching a play, and then said: " If I were not afraid that I would not be able to defeat you, I would have taken action long ago." The great monk who had just relaxed became angry again.
"Get out of the way of Ye San Geng, he dares to provoke me." The great monk, whose way of thinking was completely contrary to that of others, made Ye San Geng speechless. He pushed him aside with force, looked at Shi Gan Dang, and said angrily: " If you have something to talk about, don't waste your time." Shi Gandang turned slightly sideways, with a look in his eyes, and walked away first.
The late night watcher only hesitated for a moment and then followed. Yishan quickly squeezed in between the two of them, looking wary.
Shi Gandang, who was dressed in a moon-white Taoist robe and was spotless, did not mince words and said straight to the point: "Has Taoist Master Sifu told the Third Young Master about the messenger?" The other party was so direct that Ye Sangen was caught off guard by the question and paused briefly.
Shi Gandang looked back, smiled, and continued to move forward.
"I don't know if the other sects that have received the letter have any clues. In fact, what our Taoist sect needs most right now is to share the clues that we know. Maybe we can find some clues." There was a thought in the third update of the night.
"Does your Taishan sect have any clues?" Shi Gandang, who was just moving forward, laughed, but did not delay too much on this topic and said: "The sect has an order to come to Wudang in advance this time. No matter what, we must The matter of the lotus pond has been clearly investigated, so even if people are panicked and feel a little uncomfortable, there is nothing they can do. The poor Taoist envies Taoist Master Sifu. It is difficult to disobey the teacher's order, but he dare not disobey the family order. He is comfortable staying away from this whirlpool. "Young man. There was a hint of jealousy in the Taoist priest's words, which made Ye San even more confused as to what he wanted to express.
Shi Gandang suddenly asked: "Is the Third Young Master also helping Yue Baotou from Junzhou City to investigate this matter?" Naturally, there is no need to hide anything about this kind of thing, so Ye Sanggeng nodded in agreement.
"Why did the head of Jiu'e just come to you?" Shi Gandang asked again, making Ye San even more cautious.
"Are you following me?" Naturally, he could feel the reaction in the middle of the night. Yishan tensed up again and was ready to attack, hoping that if the other party attacked, he could counterattack as soon as possible.
Shi Gandang still smiled and said: "It's not intentional. If the head of Jiu'e hadn't gone to find the third young master, I guess we would be talking about these things in your room now."
"What exactly do you want to say?" Ye Sangen frowned and stopped. From the first time he met this young Taoist priest, he deliberately stirred up trouble and tried to use the special methods of Kanxiang Sect to lead trouble to Wudang.
"You don't have to be so nervous." After taking a few steps, the young Taoist priest of the Taishan sect also stopped and spread his hands behind his back to indicate that he meant no harm. He continued,
"I know what you are thinking. You are blaming me for sowing discord that evening, right?" Regardless of the late night answer, Shi Gandang once again had a gentle smile on his face.
"What the second young lady said is actually a bit one-sided, but the second young lady's 'no argument' remarks in front of the main hall that morning really won my heart. Therefore, she has no objection to Pindao's judgment about Pindao and reserves her opinion. I don't know. Sir, have you noticed that our Laoshan sect in Laizhou, Henan Province has only sent a few insignificant young Taoist priests?" The young Taoist priest's sentences here and there have no beginning and no end, making the midnight frown deepen.
Ye Sangen said impatiently: "What do I care about those things? I don't even know who the Laoshan sect is."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Shi Gandang waved his hand and said,
"Before we came here, we met with the Laoshan Sect. Other sects may not have seen the messenger, but by chance, the Laoshan Sect found out." After a brief pause, the young Taoist priest whose words made people confused had a solemn expression. Ye San said slowly: "Fuying people." Ye San's heart seemed to have skipped a beat.
If what he said is true, then Jiugong Yan is indeed planning Wudang, and even the Taoist sects in the world.
In this case, I don't know if Yue Qingfeng can deal with this Fuying woman who has a lot of power. Thinking of this, Ye San couldn't help but sweat for Yue Qingfeng.
Shi Gandang moved forward again, and the voice came again.
"I have heard a lot about the Third Young Master, and I can be considered as someone who has entrusted me with it. I am a poor Taoist, and I will give the Third Young Master an opportunity on behalf of the Taishan Sect."
"A great opportunity."
