When the sword comes out of Emei, I will be the front

Chapter 158 Outside Fuhu Temple, in front of Chunyang Cave

The next day it was still dark, and Ye Guhong got up immediately.

After washing up, they woke up Snow Centipede, Purple Scorpion, and finally Yu Chan, who had no choice but to carry Yu Chan who couldn't wake up no matter how hard he tried, said goodbye to Dong Huazi and walked out of the city into the mountains under the bright moonlight.

At that time, Emei was not like later generations. Mountain roads were repaired everywhere, and all roads led to the Golden Summit.

In those days, it was difficult for people to make a living. Who had the pleasure of traveling? Even between urban and rural areas, roads are difficult to reach, let alone in the mountains?

Even if there are a few princes, grandsons and literati who want to visit places, they still have to prepare their own dry food and suffer the hardship of traveling over mountains and mountains. If they are careless, they will be buried in the belly of a python and the kiss of a tiger.

Therefore, people of the Emei sect also have to go up and down the Golden Summit and zigzag around the mountain, just like Fan Chengda, a layman from Shihu in the Southern Song Dynasty, who took the same route when he visited Emei.

The Mingjiao launched a large-scale attack and followed this path——

But we entered the mountain from the southwest of Emei County, first to Fuhu Temple, then through Chunyang Cave, Qingyin Pavilion, Baishui Puxian Temple, Xixinsuo, Xixiang Pool, Leidongping, and finally arrived at Jinding. The whole journey totaled one hundred Yuli.

Ye Guhong and others were accustomed to traveling on mountain roads. After walking for a little over an hour, they arrived at Fuhu Temple when the sky was no longer bright.

This temple was first built in the Jin Dynasty and flourished in the Tang Dynasty. In the late Southern Song Dynasty, a famous monk used Buddhism to suppress tigers here. The mountain behind the temple was as strong as a tiger, so it was renamed Fuhu Temple, also known as Huxi Zen Forest.

In fact, everyone understands that even if you feed a tiger with your body, the tiger will still eat people after pooping. What Buddhist teachings can suppress it?

Therefore, the tiger problem could be eliminated because an expert used superb martial arts to get rid of several tigers. What they did was that the tigers blocked her interest in climbing.

It's just that this master acted in a low-key manner, and the people spread rumors, interpreting the Buddhist theory of subduing the tiger.

But as a disciple of Emei, Ye Guhong naturally knew that this was what his ancestor had done.

Another strange thing about Fuhu Temple is that the temples overlap to form extra-large patios. The foundation of the entire temple is located in a narrow valley, surrounded by green mountains. Therefore, whirlwinds surge from time to time, and insects and birds are attracted to it. It is difficult to stand, dust and fallen leaves have disappeared, and it is extremely clean without cleaning.

People at that time didn't know the reason, but naturally they attributed it to the boundless Buddhism. In addition, the temple was located in a shallow mountain, so the incense was extremely prosperous.

But today, in Fuhu Temple, there are no morning bells singing, no green smoke and incense, and whirlwinds rising from the temple, making it look particularly deserted and lonely.

Ye Guhong wanted to go directly from the door, but the jade toad on his back suddenly became excited. He straightened his head and without opening his eyes, he stretched out a fat and white finger, pointed at the temple and said: "Brother , the smell of blood is so strong there.”

Xuexi was furious, grabbing her face and saying, "What did you call him? I even called him Mr. Ye, how dare you call me brother?"

Yuchan was in pain, twisted his face, and pressed hard against Ye Guhong's back.

Snow Centipede became more and more anxious and tried to pull her ears. Ziscorpion scolded her: "What are you doing? Are you still fooling around? Let's see why there is blood in this temple."

Ye Guhong said: "Everyone, be careful, I will take the lead."

He gently put down the jade toad, stood up and walked in front, taking a few people along a path and entering the temple through the back door.

Looking around, there was no one around, except for clusters of burned-out fires in the halls and monks' houses on the left and right. It was obvious that someone was lighting a fire here to keep warm.

Ye Guhong put his hand into the ashes and felt that the residual warmth was still there. It was obvious that the person who spent the night had not left long ago.

Zi Scorpion also touched the ashes and asked doubtfully: "How many days have the people from the Ming Cult been here, why are they still here?"

Ye Guhong thought for a moment and guessed: "After passing this temple, the next step is Chunyang Cave. It is said to be the place where Lu Dongbin traveled and practiced. It is backed by Chicheng Peak and is more than 300 feet high. The road is condescending and easy to guard. It is difficult to attack, or I have sent heavy troops to block it, so the Mingjiao has not been able to attack it for several days, so it went to attack again early this morning."

Yuchan followed timidly and pointed: "The smell of blood comes from there."

Ye Guhong looked up and saw that it was a firewood shed. He went over and pushed open the ajar door, only to see twenty or thirty corpses piled up in layers inside. He frowned when he saw them, recognizing that they were all Fuhu. monks in the temple. Mount Emei covers a vast area and has many temples and Taoist temples. Some of the monks and Taoist priests there are disciples of Emei, and most of them have other traditions. Fuhu Temple, for example, has nothing to do with Emei. The monks in the temple don't even know martial arts, but only Burning incense and spreading the Dharma.

Ye Guhong was angry in his heart and said in a cold voice: "It's enough for these guys to come and beat me, Emei, why bother to kill these innocent people? It seems that the word demon sect is not what the world has wronged them."

Several people walked forward, passing through the Main Hall, Guanyin Hall, and Wei Tuo Hall, and arrived at the front hall.

The front hall of this temple is dedicated to the Maitreya Buddha. After walking around the Buddha statue, I saw countless firewood piled up on the square in front of the temple, which had already been burnt black.

Step forward and take a closer look, you will see that the remaining firewood that has not been burned is sticky and white, and is filled with cooled corpse oil.

Zi Xie said: "It seems that the Ming Cult killed many people and burned their ashes here."

Ye Guhong said coldly: "You deserve to die! Let's go forward and explore."

They left the temple and walked up the mountain road for more than a mile. They gradually heard the shouts of death in front of them, and saw a corner of the cornice exposed among the layers of leaves.

Ye Guhong stopped the girls and whispered: "The mountain road in front of Chunyang Cave is narrow. If the Demon Sect has not passed this level, they should station troops at Tingquan Pavilion in front and attack in turn. The three girls will ambush here. Let me go and investigate, and if I get the chance, I will lure him here and let everyone rush up to catch him, and we will have the upper hand."

Snow Centipede said happily: "Master Ye, looking at your faction, you are like a general fighting a war. You are really smart."

Yuchan hummed and said, "Brother, I'm hungry. I went to explore the road and saw something delicious. Bring some to me."

Zi Scorpion's eyes turned and he pursed his lips in silence.

Ye Guhong made arrangements properly, performed Qinggong, climbed up the tree like a monkey, shook the sky silk, and walked a little across the treetops. He was so angry that Spider Parker was so angry that he couldn't let Taishan go. After a few swishes, he arrived. Tingquan Pavilion is close, hiding in a big pine tree.

Looking down, he saw several leaders of the Ming Cult sitting in the small Tingquan Pavilion. They were Gui Yifei, the acting leader, Xiao Feiyang, Qing Scorpion, Leng Qian, Tieguan Taoist, and Zhou Dian.

There were no less than four to five hundred people standing or sitting outside, all with murderous intent and angry faces, which was in sharp contrast to the couplet on the pavilion: "Thousands of things in the world, a small spring in the mountain".

These people were noisy and couldn't hear what they were saying for a while. Suddenly, thirty or forty people rushed down from the mountain road. They were covered in mud and dust, and a few were injured. The leader was someone he had met in Kunlun Mountain. The two camp leaders are Huang Zheng and Hu Jifeng.

Huang Zheng's face was covered with sweat, he dragged his mace backwards and said angrily: "It can't be beaten, it can't be beaten, his grandmother's stupid Emei sect has piled rocks like a city wall, leaving only a thin path in the middle, going to On the feint attack, he was throwing countless stones, and there were hidden weapons inside, how can the brothers survive?"

Xiao Feiyang stood up and said, "Brothers, stop making noise, Xiao has come up with a plan."

Then a big man laughed and said, "For three days, Xiao Zuoshi came up with six clever strategies, but none of them worked."

After the big man said this, hundreds of people burst into laughter. Only the nearly two hundred people on the left side of the pavilion remained silent and glared at him.

Xiao Feiyang was not angry, he looked at the big man calmly and said: "Heshan, if you don't like to listen to my plan, just take the people from Jiamu Camp to occupy Chunyang Cave. Then you will be considered powerful. Xiao will give it to you." You kowtow and thank you for your contribution to our religion.”

That Hemlock was the commander of the Jiamu Camp. Hearing this, his face sank and he shouted: "In the past three days, the five battalions have taken turns to fight, and each battalion has fought at least two or three battles. Xiao Zuo has the opportunity to discuss strategies. It’s better to let the Four Gates of Heaven, Earth, Wind and Thunder go and meet for a while, and let our brothers have a rest.”

As soon as he said this, the congregation in the fifth camp became more noisy, and soon they shouted more and more in unison, and finally they shouted in unison: "The wind and thunder in the sky and the earth are as timid as mice!"

Ye Guhong was secretly happy when he heard this. He thought that in the face of a powerful enemy, these demon bastards were still thinking about fighting among themselves. Looking at the entire world, such forces were rare.
