That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 146 Farewell to the Taoist Temple in the Forest

Xu Beiyou silently calculated in his heart that the Southern Ghost Emperor, Du Haichan, Xie Suqing, Tang Shengyue, and Zhang Xueyao are five immortals in total.

Calculated in this way, Jiangdu is almost second only to the imperial capital and Xuandu, and it is much stronger than the already decadent gods, and these are only the masters on the bright side, and those who hide behind the scenes are not ordinary. Few, he is a small first-rank realm, and it is as difficult as reaching the sky if he wants to make a difference here.

Right now, Jiangdu is far away, but as the saying goes, those who travel a hundred miles are halfway to ninety, and this last step is the most difficult to take. The elites of the Demon Suppressing Palace are all gathered here. I am afraid that he will be suppressed by the Demon Suppressing just after he enters the city. The chief deacon of the palace arrested him and took him to the Taoist workshop. At that time, it would be difficult for even an immortal to save him.

Therefore, the most urgent task right now is not to recklessly enter Jiangdu City, where the dragon is hidden and the tiger crouches, but to absorb the sword spirit of the inexplicable sword as soon as possible, and strive to step into the realm of ghosts and immortals as soon as possible.Although in today's situation, the realm of ghosts and immortals is nothing, but a little more cultivation base will give you more security, which is better than facing any few chief deacons of the Demon Suppressing Palace as if you are facing an enemy, and there will be dangers everywhere.

Three days later, Xu Beiyou and Xiao Yuanying actually entered the border of Jiangzhou. When they reached a fork in the road, Xu Beiyou stopped, put Xiao Yuanying on his back on the ground, and then took off his sword box from her back .

Xiao Yuanying was still a little confused at the beginning, so after a while, he already understood in his heart, looked up at Xu Beiyou and asked, "Aren't you going to Jiangdu?"

"I will definitely go." Xu Beiyou carried the sword box on his body and said, "But not now."

Xiao Yuanying lowered his head, his tone became a little dull, "What about me?"

Xu Beiyou squatted down, put his hands on her immature shoulders, his eyes were at the same level as hers, and said softly: "You are the Qingluan Princess personally appointed by His Majesty the Emperor, and here is Jiangdu, the accompanying capital. No one dares to do anything to you. You As long as you go to the Dark Guard Mansion to reveal your identity, they will naturally escort you to see Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Xiao Yuanying bit her lips lightly, but did not speak.

Xu Beiyou stood up again, and said slowly: "If I go to Jiangdu now, it will definitely be a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, so I have to wait for someone, this time will not be too long, as the saying goes, there is no banquet that lasts forever. The green hills remain unchanged, the green water flows forever, see you in Jiangdu in the future.”

A dissatisfied grunt was his answer.

After a long silence, Xiao Yuanying took out the jade pendant that matched Xu Beiyou's jade pendant from his bosom, and said softly, "Xu Beiyou, you still owe me a jade pendant."

Xu Beiyou smiled and said: "I will remember it. Someday I will become a great sword fairy who will go straight to Qingyun Nine Heavens. With one sword, I will cold fourteen states, and I will send you a house full of three thousand drunken flowers."

"Nonsense!" Xiao Yuanying pretended to be disdainful, and then whispered: "Don't die, if you dare to die secretly, don't expect me to report your funeral."

Xu Beiyou also imitated her tone and gave a soft pooh: "Say something frustrating."

With a sullen face, Xiao Yuanying waved his hands and said, "Let's go, hurry up, I'm upset just looking at you."

Xu Beiyou smiled, turned and left.

Xiao Yuanying stood where he was, watched him walk away slowly, gritted his teeth, and turned around and walked towards another fork in the road.

Xu Beiyou headed east all the way to Jiangzhou, deviated from the official road, and climbed his own speed to the extreme, jumping up and down like a Taoist land flying technique.

When he reached the extreme point, Xu Beiyou let out a long roar, and Tianlan pulled out of the sword box behind his back.

With a sword in his hand, Xu Beiyou used the seventh of the swords 36. The sword moved freely, and his body followed the sword.

After walking a distance of more than a hundred feet, Xu Beiyou had to tap the ground with his toes to borrow strength again. The subtlety of Jian Qi lies in the integration of mind, sword, and body. If you practice to the extreme, with a single thought, you can control the sword in the nine heavens On top of that, Shangguan Xianchen, the lord of the Sword Sect, went out to sea, using six swords and seven swords together, which is a magnificent scene of controlling thousands of swords and stepping on a stegosaurus.

After running for more than a hundred miles at a stretch, the energy in Xu Beiyou's body was almost exhausted. He put Tianlan in his hand back into the sword box behind his back, and ran with his legs instead. Domestic air machine.

Gongsun Zhongmou once said that the way of swordsmanship of Jianzong has always been indomitable, and he has no regrets even if he dies nine times. , that is to fit one's own swordsmanship, but also to sharpen one's own aura.

Xu Beiyou walked eastward like this, and didn't stop until it was almost dusk.

At this time, he was in a dense forest, and there seemed to be a Taoist temple in the distance. It occupied a large area and had many pavilions. The outside is brightly lit.

Xu Beiyou looked at the Taoist temple and frowned.

The Taoist temple itself is not uncommon. Now that the Taoist sect is booming, there is a great trend of state religion. Taoist temples are springing up everywhere. Xu Beiyou is surprised that this Taoist temple is built in such a remote place, but it is brightly lit. It seems that there are still people coming and going. , It is really abnormal.

Xu Beiyou stood on the spot and thought for a moment, then turned towards the Taoist temple.

Xu Beiyou didn't dare to go in the direction of the main entrance, but went around to the back entrance, hid in the shadows, and chose a dark and sparsely lit corner where there was no one, with his body clinging to the wall, like a huge gecko climbing along On the other hand, he quietly climbed over the wall and came into the Taoist temple.

With the experience of exploring Xiao Maha's Biefu last night, Xu Beiyou is familiar with the road this time. After avoiding a few unexpected hidden obstacles, his figure is like a bat in the shadow, and he flies to a roof , took a few steps lightly, turned over a tile, and looked inside.

Seeing that it didn't matter, Xu Beiyou's eyes widened suddenly.

In this wing room, there was a large Jinxiu bed. Beside the bed was a round table with a tea set on it. At this moment, a woman's skirt was half untied, her hands resting on the edge of the table, her upper body slightly leaning forward, revealing In a white scene, a man in a middle coat is standing behind the woman, sitting something indescribable.

The two people's undisguised gasps were clearly audible.

Xu Beiyou took a deep breath and gently closed the tile.

Then he looked at a few wing rooms, although the patterns were different, but generally speaking they were all the same.

He turned around and went down the roof, and walked slowly along the corner. He didn't see a few Taoists along the way, but there were quite a few Taoist nuns, all of them were beautiful and light, but these Taoist nuns didn't have the dusty air of a monk. On the contrary, she has the habit of fireworks, and she looks charming, unlike a girl from a good family.

Reminiscent of what he saw before, if Xu Beiyou couldn't guess where this place is, he would be really stupid.

It has long been heard that Jiangnan is rich, especially in Jiangzhou, where obscenity is commonplace. Not only do the major families keep singing girls in their homes, but they also like to linger in the entire fireworks place. The painted boats on the Qinhuai River are even more unique. I didn't have a deep understanding, but today can be regarded as an eye-opener.

At this time, the sky had already darkened safely, the bright moon was hanging high, and under the high-hanging red lanterns were wealthy guests in rich and noble clothes.

Since there are many wealthy people, the guards in the Taoist temple are naturally quite strict, and the buildings in it are patchwork. If no one guides the way, it is difficult to distinguish the direction. Come to a back door across the courtyard.

Xu Beiyou repeated his old tricks and sneaked into this courtyard. There were bright lights in the house. Xu Beiyou's figure was like a baby swallow returning to its nest and flew up to the roof. When he lifted the tiles, he saw seven or eight young Taoist nuns inside the house, all of them were beautiful Shang Shang, at this time, is hugging a wealthy son with an extraordinary bearing.

The son was wearing a royal blue brocade dress, the purple gold crown on his head had been taken off, his hair was loose, and he was resting on the breast of one of the female crowns, letting the female crown gently rub his temples with her hands, placing her hands on the In the white and tender gully of the two half-faded female crowns beside him, two other female crowns knelt in front of him, gently taking off his boots.

A Taoist nun with the most beautiful appearance stood beside her holding a jade plate with both hands. On the jade plate were things that were very common in the rich and powerful families, five stones scattered.

This kind of style really doesn't look like the son of an ordinary wealthy family.
