The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant
Chapter 60
Chapter 60
Looking at each other, Qi Feimeng glanced at Zhao Chen, who was still posing with the gesture of "touching the corpse", after realizing that there was a little surprise in each other's eyes, and sighed slightly: "You really came again... I I thought it was just the one time before."
But she didn't want to find out the specific reason why the other party was able to "lose" her "opportunity", just like the other party never asked her why she could travel through the "fog of history".
Even friends have their own secrets.
What's more, with Zhao Chen here, she has a greater hope of completing the "task", which is also a good thing.
Otherwise, it would be really difficult for her to walk with difficulty.
"I don't know the specific reason, maybe it has something to do with the Bodhisattva portrait I saw in Fang Xuzi's memory?"
Having said that, Zhao Chen couldn't even convince himself.
With the characteristics of "Da Ri Xing Cha", it is more likely that it made some shady deal with that Bodhisattva picture!
Zhao Chen thought secretly.
At this moment, just like the last time Jingcun started, he heard a sentence in an unknown language, but he could comprehend its meaning:
"In the 13th year of Yingli in the Tang Dynasty, Beiting was the Protectorate.
"Phase [-]: Protect Zhang Yunlu until dawn."
"Zhang Yunlu?" Zhao Chen looked around, but did not see any outsiders in this ruined temple in black, white and gray.
On the contrary, it is a little strange to find that there is no statue of god in this ruined temple, and there is only a badge with a height of one person on the main seat.
This emblem is carved out of ordinary stone, with a round sun in the middle and many stars carved around it... However, because it has been abandoned for a long time, many places have been weathered, and the details cannot be seen clearly.
What kind of temple is this?As soon as Zhao Chen had doubts, Qi Feimeng over there said, "This is a temple dedicated to the Star God...
"After Jiashen's heavenly change, the belief in the star gods flourished for a while, and there were many temples... But then something happened, the star gods never answered the prayers of the believers, and even the star associations that believed in the star gods were banned. Occupied by evil spirits, it has been reduced to an evil organization."
It turned out to be the Temple of the Star God... But Feimeng, you know a lot, I'm afraid your knowledge is no worse than that of my master!Zhao Chen was thoughtful, but he didn't intend to delve into it.
He thought for a while, and just when he was about to ask about the mission, the colors of the surrounding scenery gradually became richer.
A few seconds later, with a gust of cold wind blowing in from the window of the ruined temple, Zhao Chen keenly noticed that Miss Qi shivered and her body shrank.
She had been running away before, and her coat had been scratched and tattered during the tossing and turning. Fortunately, the inner coat was relatively intact, which did not reveal the spring.
But this "historical fog" was in mid-winter, located in Saibei, and the ruined temple was covered with a thick layer of white snow. Her few clothes were not enough to keep her warm.
Coupled with the fact that Miss Qi suffered serious internal injuries at this time, it was difficult for her true energy to circulate, and it was even more difficult to keep out the cold.
Seeing this, Zhao Chen immediately took off his coat and put it on Qi Feimeng.
"Thank you..." For this, Miss Qi was not shy and thanked directly.
But this warmth is in my heart.
At this time, there was a sudden creaking sound outside.
It was the sound of pedestrians stepping on the snow.
Qi Feimeng turned her ears to listen for a few seconds, and then quickly said: "At least ten people, and two of them are genuinely successful.
"There may be a target we want to protect inside."
"Maybe it's the enemy..." Zhao Chen took advantage of the situation to protect Miss Qi behind him while speaking, and asked, "How many bullets do you have?"
"There's only one shot left...I originally wanted to keep it for myself..." Qi Feimeng also held "Silver Moon" in his hand, and then said with a smile, "Your firecracker has helped me a lot. busy."
"To each other, your 'Toad Light' has also helped me a lot." After Zhao Chen raised the green ribbon on his wrist, he took out a box of ammunition from his arms and handed it to the other party, "See if you can The ____ does not work?"
This is what he just found from the leader of the Chai family.
Seeing this, Miss Qi's eyes lit up, and after a brief inspection, she took out five rounds and pressed them into the runner of "Silver Moon".
But at this time, a group of people from all walks of life, men and women, old and young, had already carried their luggage and walked to the gate of the ruined temple from far to near through the snow.
Then, the leader of the group shouted: "It's hard to travel in the snowy night, rest for now, and leave in the morning."
He exhaled a cloud of white air, showing the coldness.
Traveling at night... Didn't the Tang Dynasty have the taboo of encountering "deceptions" at night?Zhao Chen's heart moved when he heard the words, and he once again noticed the difference between Datang and Daxia.
"Okay, the old man is fine, but Miss Yunlu can't bear the cold weather." An old man responded with a smile.
"It's Yunlu who is useless... It's dragging everyone down." A weak female voice sounded, her tone full of apology.
"Ha, we are all people who have received the favor of Zhang Daxia during the evil chaos, so naturally we have to protect the young lady well." The old man said indifferently.
With him taking the lead, the rest naturally had no objection, so they all stopped.
The leading middle-aged man in a cloak drew out his long sword, opened the temple door first, and came in to explore the way.
He didn't dare to be careless, and looked at the door from a distance. After a while, he saw Zhao Chen and Qi Feimeng on the side of the statue.
The middle-aged man has opened his eyes and can see things at night. At this time, he saw a pair of boys and girls with good looks and temperament hiding in the ruined temple. The girl was still wearing the boy's coat. Know what to think about.
It wasn't until the old man at the back asked that he came back to his senses, and then slightly bowed his hands to Zhao Chen and Qi Feimeng: "I'm staying overnight today, I'm disturbing you two..."
At this time, Zhao Chen also saw the middle-aged man's appearance clearly, and found a blood-red mole on the center of his brow, which was unforgettable at first sight.
"Everyone, please go ahead, this ruined temple does not belong to my family."
Zhao Chen nodded to him, then looked at the other people, including the old man, who came in behind the middle-aged man.
Especially the girl in white who was following the old man.
This girl was only about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a pretty appearance and a pure temperament, and Zhao Chen felt very similar to the pair of sisters and brothers whom Miss Qi and Chai Yugong planned to take away.
But her skin was extremely pale, and she didn't know whether it was from the cold or from nature.
This should be Zhang Yunlu who needs protection, right?
While Zhao Chen was thinking secretly, the middle-aged man with the red mole between his eyebrows first found an oil lamp with a small hole on the edge of the altar, filled it with oil, lit it with flint, and found some dry wood from somewhere. , lit the pyre.
The ruined temple suddenly became brighter and warmer.
Next, after arranging for a group of people to barbecue dry food by themselves, he took out three sticks of incense from his bag, put them in front of the incense table with the sun and stars emblem, and lit them to pay homage.
Its movements are serious and its attitude is serious, as if it is a devout believer.
