Chapter 144 Hello, Master, Goodbye, Master
Leaving aside the strange emotional drama between Lao Yan and Miss Zhu, after two days of part-time trek, the bumpy five-way double-decker bus finally arrived at the outskirts of Zhenjiang smoothly, and I have already seen the place located in the Jinguang Ancient Temple in Changtian Lake——

Under the evening sun, the Jinshan Temple, located on the island on the lake, seemed to be dyed pale gold by the yellow sunset. The cool evening wind blew by, and the grand bells from the temple slowly echoed, resounding on the entire lake, and floated Waves of ripples and ripples made people feel at peace soon after being in it...

"Should we go to the temple or not?" Yan Chixia jumped off the double-decker bus, completely ignoring Miss Zhu who was stretching out her hand weakly and waiting for him to help.

"Time is running out, let's just dive into the water." Xu Zhihu touched his chin thoughtfully, thought for a while and couldn't help asking curiously, "Old Yan, have you ever been in love before? Unrequited love It doesn't count."

"Uh, why are you asking this?" Yan Chixia opened her eyes in a daze.

"It's nothing..." Xu Zhihu coughed a few times, and quickly returned to the topic, "Okay, as a car, Yin can't swim, so I can only stay on the shore honestly, and everyone else will follow me , Suzhen, it's up to you!"

Having already understood what he meant, Bai Suzhen nodded slightly, and immediately jumped into the lake without hesitation, as light as if melting into the lake water, without even bringing up the smallest splash.

A few seconds later, as the ripples on the lake gradually dissipated, a silver-white snake tail that was tens of feet long suddenly rose from the lake, and then it was gently rolled by the wind, blowing Xu Zhihu and the others on the shore. After being dragged into the water, only Yin was left alone squatting on the shore. While repairing the car, he took out a small pink book and read it seriously—"Well, the beginner's swimming posture explanation..."

Looking at the other side, Xu Zhihu and Chi Jieer, who were dragged into the water at this time, suddenly found themselves in a transparent light ball, and the surrounding lake water was blocked by the light curtain, making the light ball It is still as comfortable as on land, and there is no need to worry about breathing air.

In front of them, Bai Suzhen was at ease as if she was going home, parting the lake water and swimming towards the bottom of the lake, the silver snake tail swayed slightly behind her, dragging the ball of light slowly moving forward... Well, everything is going well, In addition to being short-sighted, she deviated from the direction several times and was entangled in strange postures by the water plants.

"It's a pity, I forgot that thing in the old house, otherwise I can help you solve myopia problem." Xu Zhihu really couldn't bear to look directly, after thinking about it, he turned to look at Bone Demon Lord, "Well, old man Bai, what we are looking for..."

"It's right there!" Knowing what he wanted to ask, Bone Demon Venerable immediately spewed out a few balls of phosphorous fire, illuminating the increasingly dim underwater environment around him.

With the help of a few phosphorescent fires, one can vaguely see the bottom of the deep lake hundreds of feet away. Indeed, there is an abandoned building half-hidden by mud and sand. Only the part of the mud and sand at the bottom of the lake can be seen. The ancient bronze bells full of Buddhist scriptures, the collapsed Buddhist statues, and the wooden fish cassocks scattered at the bottom of the lake, one can imagine how prosperous the temple was in those days, but now it has become an underwater ruin.

"That's... uh, San Francisco?" Xu Zhihu always felt that the name sounded a little strange.

"That's right, that's San Francisco." Bone Demon Venerable nodded slightly, "It looks abandoned on the outside, but the inside has been remodeled by the Jin leader, and there are magic circles around to monitor, but it's okay, I know there is a road nearby The channel at the bottom of the lake, as long as we go from there..."

boom!
Before the words fell, at this moment, the bottom of the lake, which was still as calm as before, suddenly roared and shook, and the surrounding lake water set off a frenzied wave, which directly engulfed the light ball completely. Xu Zhihu, who was in the light ball, had no On guard, he was thrown out by the inertia directly, watching the light ball gradually cracking and shattering.

"What?" Bai Suzhen was taken aback, and the snake's tail hurriedly rolled back, quickly rolling back the out-of-control ball of light.

Almost at the same time, a loud bang was heard, and the sediment at the bottom of the lake rushed violently like a volcanic eruption. In this crazily surging wave of sediment, the abandoned San Francisco Temple that was half submerged at the bottom of the lake unexpectedly brought The huge buzzing and vibrating sound gradually rose from the depths of the lake.

"Uh..." Xu Zhihu and Sister Chi looked at each other, without saying anything, they turned their heads neatly.

"I don't know!" Bone Demon Venerable was also dumbfounded, "This, this is impossible, the golden leader obviously hasn't collected enough materials and resources, how dare he..."

"Isn't that because, thanks to you?" The sharp and piercing laughter of a male duck suddenly came from the gradually rising abandoned Jinshan Temple, with some irritation and deep-seated hatred——

"This leader is the condensed energy of heaven and earth, and he is destined to unify Kunwu and achieve great things. You and other clowns think that colluding with the traitor, Baigu, can hinder the leader's century-old plan. It's the so-called mantis's arms that block the car, and it's the so-called arrogance." Those who follow me prosper, as the saying goes..."

Well, if you don't interrupt, this guy can praise himself for half an hour at a stretch, Xu Zhihu couldn't help turning his head to look at Bone Demon Venerable speechlessly: "So, you are controlled by this kind of idiot?"

Needless to say, Bone Demon Lord suddenly felt very ashamed, and his whole face flushed red: "Yes, that guy is indeed a fat idiot, but you have to be careful, although he is useless, those strange things But the magic weapon..."

boom!
At this moment, the San Francisco Temple, which was slowly rising out of the bottom of the lake, suddenly seemed to be forcibly lifted by an invisible big hand, and suddenly jumped out of the mud and sand with a roar. In front of the dilapidated and damaged temple gate, suddenly appeared a The whistling and rotating huge black hole engulfed the surrounding lake water unscrupulously.

Almost at the same time, the sharp cock-duck voice of the golden leader echoed at the bottom of the lake again: "Bone, you forced this leader! Originally, I wanted to collect materials and draw it slowly, but since you are aggressive, don't blame me. The leader of this sect is desperate!"

Before the words fell, there was another roar, and the San Francisco Temple, which had swallowed a large amount of lake water, roared and shook, and rushed out of the lake from the depths of the lake, completely exposed to the evening sun!

The huge and dilapidated shadow was exposed in the air like a mountain, and the huge waves created by its huge body spread wildly to the surroundings. In the blink of an eye, it even completely engulfed the Xinjinshan Temple. Hundreds of monks had no time to react , was submerged by the flood tide and drifted away with the waves.

Although it is not sure what exactly happened, but at this moment, inside the dilapidated temple ruins covered with mud, sand and water plants, there are disturbing hissing sounds, and countless dark air currents can be vaguely seen Like lightning, it suddenly shot out from the broken gaps in the temple. Several surprised lake fish just jumped out of the water, and were lightly hit by the jet black air, turning into blood-red dry bones.

"That bastard, what the hell are you doing in there?" Yan Chixia raised her head in disbelief in horror, looking at the ruins of Jinshan Temple, which was as huge as a mountain, surrounded by black air and neighing.

"I think he may have really refined more than half of that thing." Xu Zhihu rubbed his chin with a strange face, "I'm not sure whether it's a successful refining or a failed refining, but I'm sure Yes, we'd better... let me wipe it now!"

Before he could finish speaking, the black hole vortex-like temple gate suddenly roared and shook, and the pitch-black air flow poured out from the temple gate like a surging tide, completely engulfing the entire land in a blink of an eye.

There was no time to dodge, Xu Zhihu only had time to hold Sister Chi, and was completely engulfed by the turbulent and violent air flow. The boundless and endless darkness covered the surroundings like a tide. The only thing he could do was to hold his breath and close his mouth and nose. The body was invaded by this pitch-black airflow.

The next moment, engulfed by the countless creatures on the shore and the turbulent lake water, the slowly rising ruins of the San Francisco Temple suddenly shone fiercely on the lake, and after the pervasive black air suddenly erupted, it disappeared so strangely out of thin air , only a large piece of lake water that was not taken away fell from the air, turning into a dense storm.

Gradually, the storm gradually stopped and weakened, and the lake surface that had been swallowed up by most of it also returned to calm, but it was much shallower than before. In the Xinjinshan Temple on the shore, the monks who escaped by chance looked around blankly, completely unaware of what happened , but at this very moment...

Amidst the whistling sound, hundreds of sword-light artifacts shot from all directions at high speed, and the startled good and evil in the entire Jiangnan hurried over. The neighing black air jumping like a spirit snake suddenly changed color, but immediately set up the sword light without hesitation, whizzed and scattered towards the surroundings, and each went to search for clues.

In the chaos, no one noticed that in the sand at the bottom of the lake not far away, the Bone Demon Venerable, whose body was mostly destroyed, was sneaking away. With the help of the faint phosphorescent light, he raised his head and looked at the black man screaming and shining in midair. I was so angry, I just felt creepy and covered in cold sweat——

"Uh, the rivers and lakes are dangerous, I know you guys have to take care of yourself, this deity... you better retire early!
