Chapter 173 Cult
"Rebirth in bliss, rebirth in bliss, rebirth in bliss."

On the street, this group of people all lowered their arms, lowered their heads, stood on tiptoes, and walked stiffly forward in an extremely strange posture.

They kept muttering this sentence in their mouths. Men and women, old and young, the various voices were superimposed and converged together. There was an inexplicable and eerie feeling that made people's hair stand on end.

Fang Xuan frowned slightly. As the carriage moved forward, he saw more and more scattered figures of ordinary people on the streets.

They were all dressed in rags, skinny and bones, with sunken eye sockets, as if they had been sucked dry of flesh and blood.

They knelt on the street, clasped their hands, held three sticks of incense, and looked at the sky devoutly, calling out words such as, "Great and compassionate Buddha Mother, please send down your great power and good deeds to save us."

Along the way, this sight kept coming.

The entire Xinhua City was filled with the smell of burning sandalwood and an extremely weird atmosphere.

About a quarter of an hour later.

The carriage stopped in front of a mansion, and Wang Mingxiao quickly welcomed everyone into the house.

Delicious dishes and delicacies from the mountains and seas have already been laid out in the house.

After everyone is seated.

"Master Wang, what was going on outside just now?" Ji Yunchen asked with a frown.

"It's a long story."

Wang Mingxiao sighed softly, smiled bitterly and began to tell.

"Ever since the world was in chaos and the heroes came together, Haizhou has also been involved in the disasters of war. Xinhua City, as a thousand-year-old city, is in a dangerous position and is a battleground for military strategists.

The major forces and the rebels started fighting in Xinhua City. You came and I went, and the troops collided.

The people in Xinhua City were in dire straits and their lives were in ruins. All the food of the people was snatched away by the rebels. It was not uncommon for Yi Zi to eat each other. "

"Until Wang Ting's army arrives and truly firmly occupies Xinhua City, Xinhua City can live a peaceful life."

"As a result, a plague suddenly broke out in the city some time ago. The people in the city first suffered from unbearable abdominal pain, then vomited black water, and finally their whole bodies were covered with abscesses. If not treated, they would eventually turn into a puddle of black water and die."

"At this time, the Lianyue Holy Cult came. They preached that the body is just a dirty skin. As long as the soul devoutly believes in the Buddha, it will be away from disasters and diseases. Even if it dies, it can be reborn in bliss, and the soul can return to the heaven. , enjoy happiness in the next life.”

"After some people believed in the Buddha Mother, they drank the holy water given by them, and as expected, the plague and black disaster on their bodies disappeared."

"As a result, more and more people joined the Lotus Moon Holy Cult and believed in the Buddha Mother. Now, nearly half of the entire city is a believer in the Lotus Moon Holy Cult."

Don't wait for Wang Mingxiao to finish.

"What nonsense!"

Ji Yunchen slammed the table, his fair and handsome face full of anger and said:
"Lotus Moon Holy Cult? This is clearly the method used by the Lotus Moon Demon Cult to catch thieves! From my point of view, it must be the Lotus Moon Demon Cult that brought a plague to the city, and then came out to deceive people by hanging pots to help the world in a hypocritical manner!"

"You just bully the people into being ignorant and believe their lies!"

When Wang Mingxiao heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "His Highness Daozhong's words are reasonable, but you can just tell me what you said. You must not say it outside, otherwise it will attract public anger."

"Hmph, the reason I came here this time is to eliminate the evil spirits and restore the world to a peaceful world with clear wind and bright moon! So that the ignorant people will no longer be bewitched by such demonic cultists!"

Ji Yunchen spoke decisively, his eyes full of awe-inspiring righteousness.

Fang Xuan was sitting on the side, and a faint smile appeared on his lips after hearing this.

His Highness, Tao Zhong, is not a bad person.

But to reveal the purpose of this trip with such passion and justice is a bit too stupid.
Wang Mingxiao laughed loudly when he heard this, then stood up and said: "Your Highness Daozhong, fellow disciples, it's getting late today, why don't you go to the mansion to rest for a while, I will go out to find out the news for you first."

"Then I'd like to thank you, Master Wang." Ji Yunchen's expression softened a little, and he cupped his hands in thanks.

Wang Mingxiao turned and left.

Fang Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

The moment Wang Mingxiao turned around, he could clearly see that Wang Mingxiao's cuffs were stained with incense ash. After Wang Mingxiao leaves.

"Junior brothers, please have a good rest today and follow me to slay demons tomorrow!"

Ji Yunchen took a deep breath, stood up and said.

Under the leadership of a group of royal maids, the disciples went to their respective rooms one by one.

"Senior Brother Ji."

Suddenly, Fang Xuan called out to Ji Yunchen who was raising his feet to leave.

"Huh? What's wrong with Junior Brother Long?" Ji Yunchen turned around and asked in confusion.

Ji Yunchen still values ​​Junior Brother Long very highly.

In this team, apart from him, Junior Brother Long is the only one who has entered the third level.

"Senior Brother Ji, haven't you smelled the faint smell of incense in this palace?" Fang Xuan said suddenly.

"The smell of incense and candles? Oh, this, the head of the Wang family explained to me that today is the day for the Wang family to worship their ancestors, so naturally they have to burn some incense and paper money."

Ji Yunchen patted Fang Xuan on the shoulder and said with a careless smile: "Junior Brother Long, I know what you are thinking. It is a good thing to be cautious, but this head of the Wang family comes from our Bihaiyun Sect and has a fist against our Bihaiyun Sect. There is no need to have any doubts.”

"Junior Brother Long, you think too much, he will be fine."

After finishing his words, Ji Yunchen gave Fang Xuan a friendly smile and walked away immediately.

Fang Xuan lowered his eyes and sighed in his heart, so he had no choice but to say nothing more.

"Junior Brother Long, did you discover something?" Zhao Zhuzhu and Gu Chang approached and asked.

Fang Xuan did not reply, but glanced at the palace that was gradually being swallowed up by the night, and said:

"Senior Brother Gu and Senior Sister Zhao, if you two believe me, don't sleep tonight and obey my orders in everything."

As soon as this was said.

Zhao Zhuzhu and Gu Chang both looked startled, then after a slight hesitation, they nodded and said:
"Junior Brother Long, you often traveled outside before joining the sect and have more experience in the world than us. We believe you are!"

There are no stars or moon in the night sky tonight.

Thick dark clouds shrouded the entire sky, as if they were about to collapse at any time, filling the sky with a sense of depression.

Fang Xuan and a Bihaiyun Sect disciple exchanged rooms along the street.

That night, midnight.

There was no light on in the wing room. Fang Xuan sat cross-legged on the bed with his eyes slightly closed, like an old monk in meditation.

Suddenly, a rustling sound sounded.

In the alleyway outside the palace, I saw a long line of people wearing floor-length black robes and large black hoods. The figures could not be seen clearly. They were holding fragrance in their hands, bending down and standing on tiptoes. Walk forward quickly on tiptoes.

"Rebirth in bliss. Rebirth in bliss. Rebirth in bliss."

The mixed voices of men, women, old and young continued to come out from under the wide hood, gathering together, like the buzzing of mosquitoes and flies, and like the low voice of a monk, giving people an inexplicable feeling of irritation.

There were no lights on in the wing, and it was dark.

A pair of dark golden eyes slowly opened in the darkness.

next moment.

"Whale Leap!"

Fang Xuan's eyes flashed, and his whole person seemed to disappear out of thin air, disappearing into this wing in an instant!
