Xingcheng, Summer Palace.
Above the altar, there was silence.
The master of the Cangyan Sword Sect, Qi Mingzi, has disappeared, but whether it is the evolution of the three pillar-like formations on the altar, or the three majestic shadows of ancient demons in the sky, they are all displayed as usual.
On the high platform in front of the hall, the finalists for the Dao discussion from the four major sects, including young female Taoists, were the first to turn around and walk into the main hall behind them. Then, other finalists came out one after another from the crowd watching the ceremony in the mandala, and everyone was silent. Climb the steps, salute the three prefects who are still sitting there, and then walk around from both sides to enter the main hall.
When no one else entered the hall, Hua Yu, who was still dressed in men's clothing and stood beside Luo Chuan, whispered into Luo Chuan's ear, "Twenty-one people are missing."
In Luochuan's eyes, there was only a hint of dark clouds in the sky to the south, "Big waves wash over the sand, that's how it is."
Hua Yu straightened up and said no more. She just looked at the dark clouds in the distant sky with solemn eyes like Luo Chuan.
Because where she looked, what was just a thin line of dark clouds on the horizon now occupied less than half of the sky. The clouds were rolling, the thunder was faint, and the strong wind stirred up water vapor, which filled the air and partially obscured the originally bright sky. dark.
What's more important is that the dark clouds are coming from the north so fast, I'm afraid it won't be long before they can cover the entire sunny sky...
On the altar, the monks gathered together in twos and threes. The previous brief silence could no longer be maintained. People's chaotic discussions started again, and no one could suppress them.
By this time, no one would pay attention to the pillars on the three altars or the shadow of the ancient demon in the sky.
Although it is good to practice Taoism, you must have a life to practice it. No one understands this truth better than casual practitioners.
Sitting on the prefect's chair not far to the right of Luochuan is Yun Sanshan, the prefect of Guangjun. Roshan is also looking at the dark clouds in the south sky at this moment. As the clouds get closer and closer to here, a look on his face His expression became increasingly gloomy.
He first looked sideways at the empty chair belonging to the Yongchang County Prefect not far to the right, and then looked over the empty chair to look at the Anyang County Prefect Yan Siyu's seemingly calm but tense and motionless posture, and sneered disdainfully. , then raised his hand without looking back, stretched out two fingers to wave.
After a while, two young beauties, one petite, slender and one plump, were brought in. The two of them said nothing. As soon as they arrived, they knelt down and sat down next to the legs of the meat mountain. Without any words, they became natural and skillful. She stretched out her slender hands to massage Roshan's legs and feet.
Roshan raised his head, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, exhaled it heavily, then opened his eyes again and looked to the left. A pair of narrow eyes stared at Luochuan who was sitting leisurely. After a long time, he suddenly smiled and spoke, and asked in a gentle voice, "Prefect Luo, I remember that your father Luo Tianen was a man who cherished his life. Of course, cherishing his life is a great advantage in my opinion. After all, smart people You always cherish your life, but why do you... seem to be so unafraid of death?"
"Because sometimes, people who are afraid of death are more likely to die," Luo Chuan did not go to see Roshan at all, but just replied calmly, " Judging from Grandmaster Yun's experience, I must be very impressed."
Roshan laughed loudly, "I am a few years older than Luo Tianen. I can't say that I am more afraid of death than Luo Tianen. Isn't he still alive now? In this world, only those who are afraid of death can survive. Longer.”
He stretched out a hand, grabbed the hair of the petite woman next to his leg, lifted it up, and pulled her into his arms. He had no pity for the woman in his arms. He only treated her as a dead toy and rubbed her. He pinched it with great force. In just a moment, the petite woman's exposed skin was already covered with large red, swollen and bruised areas. "Young man, don't think that you are lucky just because you have survived several disasters." To the point where you can’t even think about dying. Everyone has only one life. People who always want to gamble on luck will eventually die because of self-righteous luck. I have indeed seen many such people."
Luo Chuan turned to look at Roshan and said calmly, "So Governor Yun, who is so afraid of death, is sitting with me, a young man who is not afraid of death. Does he want to gamble his luck like me, or is he already... .....You can’t help yourself?”
Luo Chuan suddenly asked such a question, and the remaining people from the four major counties and the four major sects on the high platform in front of the palace were immediately shocked. They looked over one by one, either openly or covertly. The scene was strange for a moment.
The Roushan didn't take it seriously at all. He smiled to himself and played with the petite woman in his hands wantonly in public, ignoring the tears on her face and trying to endure it. "If Luo Tianen were here instead, go to the palace behind you." It will also be you." Luochuan chuckled, but suddenly his heart moved, and he whispered in a low voice, sending his voice to Roshan's ears, "You have never loved his mother at all, right? ?!"
This time, Roshan no longer looked at Luochuan, as if he hadn't heard his question at all. He just pushed the petite woman in his hand away, crossed his hands on his chest, and looked at the person who was getting closer and closer in the distance. The dark clouds that occupied less than half of the sky, and the strong wind coming towards me, brought a damp and cold chill, the clouds kept rolling, like the mountains pressing towards Xingcheng, "Today's discussion, to this extent is enough to show that you, Luo Prefect, are not afraid of monsters." You have made up your mind, do you...still want to sit in the rain and watch the ceremony?"
Luo Chuan hadn't spoken yet. Yan Siyu, who had been quiet for a long time and just stared at the dark clouds in the distance, suddenly spoke in agreement, "Prefect Yun's words make sense, An???????????????? Nan Today's meeting of the conference to discuss Taoism in the Three Realms can be considered a grand event, and the governors of the three counties like us sat on the high platform to watch the ceremony without fear of the demons and barbarians.
He glanced at Roshan and then looked at Luochuan's side face, "If there is really an army of demons and barbarians hidden in the dark clouds... disbanding the conference would be a good way to save these many human monks. "
Luo Chuan looked up at the sky. The nearest dark clouds had already covered the sky in Xingcheng. But it seemed that because they had touched the large pale golden net, the edge of the dark clouds rolled up and down like waves hitting the rocks. "The monster has not yet hit the rocks." After showing up, we panicked and dispersed the meeting. As soon as the news spread, the human race would lose all face. The two eunuchs left as they wanted. Luo Mou will sit here and see if those snakes, insects, rats and ants can be broken into pieces. The Taoist stone of my human race, Hanzhou!"
His voice was not deliberately hidden, nor was it spread with true energy, but in such a solemn atmosphere, it was still heard by many monks with sharp ears and eyes inside and outside the altar, and they all looked at him.
Roshan next to him was expressionless and speechless, but Yan Siyu frowned deeply at Luo Chuan, who looked very abnormal today. Hearing this, he couldn't help but poke his upper body forward, and then seemed to understand something, and then He slowly leaned his body back into the seat behind him, but his stiff body was no longer straight like a deflated rubber ball.
Luochuan didn't pay attention to the behavior of everyone around him. He just looked up at the sky.
Look at the sky being squeezed smaller and smaller by the rolling clouds.
Golden big net......
