Chapter 191 Faceless Monk, Shouxian Palace
"Ding Ding Ding~~"
Meng Yao opened her big eyes, and when she stretched out her little hand, she saw five colors of light shining in front of her, and one after another, prayer coins were formed out of thin air, one after another, and it took a while to stop, filling her little hands to the brim.
Lu Chen took the prayer coins and counted them, and there were twenty-nine of them. He said in surprise:
"Yaoyao, what's going on?"
"like......"
Meng Yao tilted her little head, not knowing how to explain it. After thinking for a while, she pointed her little finger to the north and said vaguely, "It seems to be from there."
Lu Chen was thoughtful, and immediately drove the flying boat to the north. Lu Yaoyao, who was standing by the side, was also very eye-catching, and did not dare to compete with Meng Yao for favor.
The purple jade flying boat traveled north all the way, flew over the Jiechuan River, and flew over [Jiuqiao Mountain], and it was not until noon that it came to the sky above Yefang City. Meng Yao pointed to the city and said crisply:
"Big brother, this is here~"
"Um!"
Lu Chen nodded, bent down and looked down, and saw that the once almost deserted city had miraculously flourished again. Not only was the crowd surging, but the whole city was almost completely renewed, looking full of vigor.
Lu Chen set his sights on the city center.
I saw a huge statue tens of meters tall. This statue is a woman, wearing a red wedding dress, with her hair in a bun, holding a huge hook and sickle high, as if it could be chopped off at any time.
There is majesty in the kindness, which makes people dare not look directly.
Lu Chen looked strange, looked between the statue and Meng Yao, the more he looked, the more he looked, and asked:
"Yaoyao, is this you?"
"It seems so."
Meng Yao's face was blushing, and her big eyes were blinking, which also seemed a little strange.
"..."
Lu Chen was a little speechless. He remembered that there were only a few thousand old and weak left in Yefang City, but they were saved by him. There used to be a statue of the red-browed old ghost in the center of the city. After he destroyed it, Meng Yao's statue was erected at some point. up.
"Go down!"
Lu Chen didn't think about it any more. He reached out and took the purple jade flying boat into his palm. He brought Meng Yao and Lu Yaoyao down and blended into the crowd. Soon after, he got a general idea of the situation in Yefang City.
Yefang City is backed by the Jiechuan River.
Not only did it block the zombie puppet from going north, but also because it was located in the south, it was not as chaotic as other areas in Beimang Prefecture, so it was able to settle in a corner, so it attracted a lot of people to come, and it has only been able to reproduce for more than ten years.
With the current situation.
And the one in charge of Yefang City is a sect called "Goddess Cult", who enshrines Meng Yao, whose title is "Wusheng Goddess", and the leader is an old woman over eighty years old, named Loulan.
Cultivation Base.
People call it Lan Po.
Today's Yefang City is developing better and better, but it has also attracted two major crises. One is the "faceless monk" from Jiuqiao Mountain, and the other is the Lou family, a family of cultivators who once moved north.
Faceless monks have existed in Yefang City for several years, but in recent years there have been more and more of them, and it is difficult to contain them.
Lou's wanted to take Yefang City into his hands.
deliberate.
Several times of persecution.
The Goddess Cult gradually became difficult to support, and they either succumbed to the Faceless Monk or switched to the Lou family, but the leader, Lan Po, was originally the abandoned daughter of the Lou family when he moved northward, and she was also stubborn. Qiaoshan was enslaved, and this was a dilemma, and there were even rumors of moving the city.
"Goddess teaches..."
Lu Chen stood on the street, his eyes reveal pondering.
Since the Goddess Sect can help Meng Yao gather prayer coins, he can't let her be oppressed by others. After a second thought, he plans to subdue the Goddess Sect. Anyway, it's easy, so he asked:
"Yaoyao, how about we take this Yefang City?"
"Can?"
Meng Yao seemed to understand, she raised her face.
"certainly!"
"The Faceless Monk is here~~"
"Let's go, let's go~~"
…
Just as Lu Chen nodded, there was a sudden commotion on the street, and then the people rushed to run. In the blink of an eye, the originally busy street was emptied. Lu Chen turned his head and looked behind him, and saw a monk wearing a monk's robe walking towards him.
The monk's attire was extremely strange.
The head was covered with a white cloth, covering the mouth, nose, eyes and the whole face. The whole head was like a ball, with faint blood soaked through the white cloth. The opponent held a bowl in his left hand and a bamboo pole in his right.
Knock, sweep, and move forward along the road.
【name】:***
[Information]: First-rank Faceless Monk
…
"Da~~"
Lu Chen didn't dodge, the bamboo pole hit his feet, the Faceless Monk stopped immediately, and raised his drooping head, as if seeing Lu Chen.
"Benefactor, give me some charity."
The voice sounded from the faceless monk's abdomen, which seemed a little dull. Lu Chen moved two steps to the left, and then Faceless turned his head to [look]. Lu Chen frowned slightly, and took out a grain of spiritual sand with his hand, and threw it on the opponent's chest. In the bowl, there were a few soft sounds:
"Ding Ding Ding~~"
"Thank you!"
The Faceless Monk bowed slightly, turned and left, the white cloth on his face seemed to be oozing blood again.
"Oh~~"
An old man who was watching from a distance came over with a sigh, showing pity on his face, and couldn't bear to say:
"Young students, why don't you avoid them?"
"What's wrong?"
Lu Chen smiled and asked a question, the old man sighed again, pointed at Lu Chen's feet, and said meaningfully: "Look, it's covered in blood, and he will come to you at night!"
"Tread~~"
Lu Chen took two steps back, and sure enough, he saw two bloody footprints under his feet. He didn't care, and asked again:
"Then what?"
"Afterwards, he will keep looking for you, always asking for alms from you, and pestering you all the time, even if you don't give alms, until your family is ruined, your wife and children are separated, there is nothing left, and finally you have nowhere to go, then he will take you away and let you be free , He, unknown!!"
The old man sighed heavily, turned and left, his footsteps a little heavy.
Few people know.
His son left in this way, and his life and death are still unknown, and there is no news of him.
"Unknown?"
Lu Chen looked at his feet and found that his feet were not stained with blood, and they were clean. He wondered, "Is it a tracking spell? I didn't even notice it."
He wanted to experience it, so he didn't bother with the Faceless Monk.
"Master, where are we going next?"
Lu Yaoyao took a few steps closer, licked her red lips, and looked at a restaurant not far away. She wanted to taste it, but she was too embarrassed to speak. Lu Chen was about to speak when he saw a crowd of people came from afar.
The pace is hurried.
Look solemn.
Most of them are wrestlers in yellow clothes and black scarves, surrounded by several women, four of them are girls in white dresses, there are two in the front, one is a black man holding a long piano One is a masked woman, and the other is a white-haired old woman with a cane.
[Name]: Loulan [Information]: Eighth floor of Qi Refining, leader of Goddess Sect
…
"Tap Tat ~ ~"
As soon as the white-haired old woman raised her hand, everyone stopped immediately. She stepped forward step by step, fixed her eyes on Lu Chen's face, and said with emotion:
"It's been ten years since I left, I never thought I would see my benefactor again."
Seeing that Lu Chen did not speak, the white-haired old woman said in shame:
"Back when the benefactor left, all the poor people left behind were half-dead. Without the permission of the benefactor, the old man used the fame of the goddess as his belief. Only then did he gather people's hearts. Please punish the benefactor!"
"Get up!"
The old woman was about to bow down and bow, Lu Chen stretched out her hand to caress her, lifted her up with Magic power, and said straight to the point:
"Since the fame of the goddess is used, the teachings of the goddess should be respected by me, are you willing?"
"willing!"
"willing!"
The old woman was overjoyed. She had known for a long time that it was difficult to protect Yefang City with her Cultivation Base. Now that the benefactor took over, it would be perfect. So she put down her crutches and bowed solemnly to Lu Chen:
"Lady Lan bows to the god! I bow to the goddess!"
Lu Chen stopped being pretentious, and Meng Yao and Meng Yao on his shoulders calmly accepted the other party's gift, and the people behind looked at each other, a little at a loss, but fortunately, Lan Po had a lot of prestige in the Goddess Sect, and Xi Lala also knelt down.
"Get up!"
Lu Chen helped Lan Po up, Lan Po's face was full of joy, she pulled the black-clothed masked woman over, and introduced: "Benefactor, she is an orphan adopted by the old man, and she can be regarded as my adopted daughter. Lou Xiaoqian is the incense master of Goddess Sect, she is in poor health, and she is currently taking care of Yefang City."
"Xiaoqian has seen the god!"
Lou Xiaoqian glanced at Lu Chen, and quickly bowed to salute.
【Name】: Lou Xiaoqian
【Information】： Qi Refining six layers, Talent piano heart
…
"good!"
Lu Chen stretched out his hand to lift him up on his forehead, and said in a voice: "My name is Lu Chen, and the future Goddess Sect will be hung under the name of [Changchun Taoist Temple], which is a branch of Changchun Taoist Temple. We don't bother to care about the affairs, there is only one thing, the incense of the goddess statue cannot be cut off."
"yes!"
"yes!"
The two nodded respectfully, Lan Po hesitated and said:
"Don't dare to hide the benefactor. There are two difficulties in the current Yefang City, both of which are very difficult. I am afraid that the benefactor will need to come forward in person..."
"rest assured!"
Lu Chen interrupted the other party, and said boldly:
"Since you have accepted the Goddess Sect, I will clean up the difficulties for you!"
"A real person..."
Lan Po and Lou Xiaoqian looked at each other in astonishment, surprised and delighted at the same time.
…
"Really please!"
The crowd surrounded Lu Chen and Lu Yaoyao and walked towards the center of the city. They passed through the streets and stopped suddenly. They saw a temple not far in front of them. The temple was quite magnificent.
The white walls and red tiles are solemn and solemn, and there are three gilt characters engraved on the plaque:
Shouxian Palace!
There are four characters on the glass pillars on both sides:
Good luck and longevity!
Like a crane like a pine!
Lu Chen's pupils shrank, and he suppressed the turmoil in his heart. His expression remained unchanged, and he asked calmly:
"Why is there a Shouxian Palace here?"
Lan Po was a little strange, but she didn't ask any more questions, and recalled:
"About seven years ago, or at night, the whole Yefang City shook inexplicably. The old man sent people to look around, and finally found that the original Earth Temple was gone, and there was such a Taoist temple inexplicably, and there was no one in it. Originally I planned to dismantle it, but found that this Taoist temple is extremely hard, and it is very troublesome to dismantle it, and I found nothing abnormal, so I simply let it be here."
"Seven years ago..."
Lu Chen was thoughtful, seven years ago should have been when Fang Yuqi and the others split up Fengxian Town.
Because Lu Chen specially reminded Shouxian Palace that it was special, so when they moved the city, they purposely kept it here instead of moving into the secret realm. From this point of view, Shouxian Palace itself fell into Yefang City.
"Longevity Taoist..."
Lu Chen's eyes flickered, and he asked again:
"Is there any incense in the temple?"
"some."
Lan Po nodded and replied:
"The grandeur of the Shouxian Palace naturally attracted many people to worship. However, the people in Yefang City believe in our Goddess Sect after all, so I deliberately suppressed it. If you come and go, the incense will not be prosperous. Dare I ask? What's wrong, benefactor?"
"No, you're doing great!"
Lu Chen gave a rare compliment and ordered:
"In the future, you will follow your method. If you want to suppress it, you can't stop it."
"I understand!"
Seeing Lan Po nodding, Lu Chen turned his gaze to Lou Xiaoqian again, Lou Xiaoqian reacted, and quickly leaned over and said:
"Xiaoqian understands!"
"good!"
Only then was Lu Chen satisfied, and as the two continued to move forward, they came to a magnificent compound. This was the former City Lord's Mansion, and now it has been transformed into the residence of the Goddess Sect. You can see the building when you turn your head The towering goddess statue is not only guarded by a woman in armor, but also no man can be seen in the courtyard.
After Lady Lan bid farewell and left, Lou Xiaoqian led Lu Chen into an exquisite courtyard with maids lined up on both sides.
Lu Chen kept walking until he came to the study in the courtyard.
Lou Xiaoqian waved her hand to let the maid back down, laid out the paper herself, and began to grind it again. Finally, she handed the brush to Lu Chen and stood by. Character:
Real Lu!
"alright!"
Lu Chen put down his pen, and whispered:
"With this letter, no matter whether Lou believes it or not, he will not dare to act rashly again. Yefang City is a problem!"
"Real people really have great Supernatural Power!"
Lou Xiaoqian boasted, picked up the letter carefully, folded it carefully, put it in the envelope prepared in advance, sealed it, and recruited a maid to hand over the letter, whispered a few times, and waited for the maid to leave in a hurry. She seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, showing a look of relief.
Lu Chen looked at the other party, and reached out to take off the veil on his face.
"Swipe~~"
Lou Xiaoqian blushed, but she didn't hold back, and asked Lu Chen to look at her carefully. Lu Chen took a few glances, helped her put on the veil, nodded and said:
"not bad!"
"..."
Lou Xiaoqian was in a trance. She was most proud of this face in her life, so she never showed it to others easily. She didn't want to have to say "not bad" in the real mouth. She turned her head and looked at Lu Yao who was touching this and that. Yao, immediately relieved, even a girl next to a real person can compete with her.
Her color is probably only worth the word [not bad], but she can't help but feel a little disappointed.
…
“It’s delicious~~”
Just after the evening, the sumptuous dishes were quickly put down. Lu Yaoyao put down the bowls and chopsticks, uttered a contented raving, rubbed her swollen belly without image, lay down on the recliner, and huddled with Lu Chen Together.
"Boom boom boom~~"
"A real person~"
"come in!"
Lu Chen responded, closed her eyes, and continued to rock the recliner. Lou Xiaoqian came in with Changqin in her arms, and specially changed into a light blue dress. She bowed:
"Xiaoqian plays the piano for a real person."
"good!"
Lu Chen didn't open his eyes, and gently nodded his forehead. After a while, there was a smooth and elegant piano sound. After one song, Lu Chen praised:
"Good piano, good song!"
Lou Xiaoqian smiled slightly, bowed her body and said:
"Thank you, Master, for your compliment!"
Lu Chen opened his eyes and asked:
"How old is Xiaoqian?"
"Di Xin was born 21 years ago, and he is 19 years old this year!"
"Is there a marriage?"
Lu Chen squeezed away Lu Yaoyao and sat up. Once a woman agrees to someone, her heart will turn outward. Lou Xiaoqian will be in charge of Yefang City in the future, and her marriage is destined to be involuntary.
"Never!"
Lou Xiaoqian shook her head, and Lu Chen asked:
"Why?"
Lou Xiaoqian's face was slightly bitter, and she explained:
"First of all, I am the incense master of the Goddess Sect. Marriage is a very important matter, so it cannot be decided lightly. Second... and second, Xiaoqian is... a stone girl!"
"..."
