Wanderer of the whirling world

Chapter 372

In the northeast corner of the capital, Lama Temple.

The palace walls and palaces with vermilion lacquer and golden roofs are stacked on top of each other, forming the most mysterious building complex in the northeast corner of the inner city of Yanjing in the Ming Dynasty.

It used to be the eunuch's official house, but after the Battle of Juyongguan, it was classified as the residence of ghosts and elves by Emperor Chongzhen, and the official house was upgraded to a palace and renamed Lama Temple.

This place is shrouded in darkness all the year round, and it is a forbidden place in the capital. It does not need to be guarded by special personnel, and there has never been a young person who dares to trespass, even snakes, mice, mice and ants dare not enter.

The arrival of a monk broke the tranquility of more than [-] years here.

At this moment, in the Hall of Demons in the Lama Temple, in front of the thin figure wearing a golden monk's robe, there are several monsters with strange shapes, some with horns on their heads, some with thick tentacles with suction cups, and some with suckers. There are countless densely packed small eyes all over the body.

Xu Xingzi pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said slowly:

"The poor monk Xu Xingzi wanted to meet Hanba, and offended everyone."

After the words fell, the dark wind suddenly roared in the dark palace of demons, and there were rustling, gloomy whispers, like whispers, like chants, which made people want to hear it maddeningly.

Crazy ghosts hid in the dark, exuding terrifying coercion, and constantly casting venomous gazes.

Xu Xingzi was in the eye of the storm, but he didn't show any fear at all. He was adorned with precious treasures, just like Vajra Buddha, and he recited the mantra in a low voice:
"Nawu...Sanbu Jiedi, Sapoha..."

The voice is subtle and far away, but clearly audible. Following the chanting, golden light bursts behind him, and a phantom image of the Medicine Buddha Buddha of the Eastern World appears, holding a medicine bowl in his left hand and forming the seal of the three realms in his right hand. Like glass, solemn and solemn.

The precious light dispelled the darkness, and the crazy whispers were illuminated by the phantom of the Glazed Buddha, and stopped abruptly, and the entire Temple of Demons also showed its original appearance.

Grey-brown flames were burning all around, illuminating the entire palace. Although every detail was visible everywhere, the gloomy and gloomy atmosphere could not go away.

On the throne in the middle of the main hall, sits a slim figure.

The black dress is like night, and the blue hair is like a waterfall. Between the eyebrows, a flaming Danzhu rune is lit, making her pale face even colder.

She parted her vermilion lips lightly, and asked:
"Monk, who are you and why did you break into the Palace of Demons?"

Xu Xingzi clasped his hands together and bowed to salute:

"I have seen Fairy Hanba, Xu Xingzi, a poor monk, and I came to visit Lama Temple because I wanted to find someone."

That beautiful figure said lightly:
"The monk's ability is good, but his mind is a bit weak. This is the Temple of Demons. It has everything, but there is no... people."

Xu Xingzi smiled slightly, and did not refute, but took off his gold-rimmed glasses, lifted his monk's robe, wiped the lenses, put them on again, and then sat on the ground with his buttocks, closed his eyes, and said nothing. Entered meditation.

"The monk is so courageous, Lama Temple is not a place where you are allowed to run wild!"

As Hanba said, he slapped the throne under his body vigorously, and a white bone fire roared and shot towards Xu Xingzi quickly.

And Xu Xingzi was like a clay sculpture, neither dodging nor dodging, he didn't even open his eyelids, and the pale fireball just passed through his body, as if he was just an illusory phantom.

With Hanba's order, countless ghosts in the Wanmo Temple roared continuously, accompanied by gusts of cold wind, and rushed towards Xu Xingzi viciously.

But without exception, they all shuttled through the monk's thin body, no matter how fierce the blow or how powerful the spell, they couldn't stay on him for a moment, as if Xu Xingzi who was sitting in place had no Not of this world, but a projection from another dimension.

Seeing that the attack was ineffective, Hanba snorted coldly, waved his plain hand, stopped the ghosts from moving, and snorted coldly:
"Good monk, you want to be a rascal? Children, ignore him, just let him sit."

Soon, the Lama Temple returned to silence, and the Hall of Demons fell into darkness again. Only Xu Xingzi's golden body flickered, blocking the door.

……

The sun slanted westward, and the long night came, but it brought no darkness.

The sun and the moon disappeared at the same time, and the entire Yanjing City was shrouded in a gray-white mist, hazy, although it was not pitch black, but it also completely restricted people's vision.

Xin Ziqiu looked at the wonderful scene outside the window, then at Zong Jing in front of him, and asked suspiciously:
"Master Shaoqing, what's your order for calling your subordinates down so late?"

Zong Jing waved his folding fan and said:

"Ding Si, Mr. Niu Qian and James have already told me about arresting Xinzhai today. You have done a good job. Now there is another task for you. If you can complete it smoothly, I will consider officially awarding it to you." You supervise the position of Tiansi Banner Officer."

Xin Ziqiu nodded:

"My lord, please speak, and the subordinates will do their best."

"Jian Tiansi got the information that the masters of Xinzhai are going to assassinate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince during the night tour of the ghosts. You are responsible to report a letter and let the guards of Chengqian Palace be on alert."

Xin Ziqiu didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd. How could it be his turn to do such a small role without a formal establishment?
Moreover, Zong Jing's unhurried attitude also made him suspicious.

If such a big thing happened, shouldn't we rush to report it first?
He didn't rush to agree, but asked:

"My lord, there are thousands of ghosts roaming around at night now, and there are many dangers outside. Although my subordinates are not afraid of going through fire and water, but their skills are low, I am afraid that they will delay the big event if they miss."

Zong Jing smiled slightly:
"It's okay, I have my own arrangements, you just go, with your skills, ordinary ghosts may not be able to do anything to you."

Xin Ziqiu felt like he was being used by others, but he didn't intend to tear himself apart with Zong Jing for the time being, so he nodded and accepted the task.

Zong Jing took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to him, saying:

"You give this letter to Eunuch Fang, the chief eunuch of Chengqian Palace. Remember, it cannot be handed over, and he must open it himself. It's not too late, you leave now."

Xin Ziqiu took the letter, suppressed the doubts in his heart, left the office of Jiantiansi, and walked into the thick fog.

This feeling is exactly the same as when he left Xiaodong's mental hospital and entered the ghost market, and it further confirmed his guess about this world.

Jian Tiansi is only a few miles away from Chengqian Palace, and with Xin Ziqiu's escapism, he can arrive there in a short time, but he stepped into the unknown and did not dare to do anything with all his strength, but was careful to guard against sneak attacks from ghosts .

But after walking for a while, he became even more puzzled, because the street was empty, not to mention the night tour of ghosts, even if he couldn't see a single ghost.

Isn't it time for the ghosts to appear?
