Forbidden City

Chapter 281
We followed the crowd to the Taoist temple, and the first thing that caught our eyes was a huge black and white plaque, with white on both sides and black in the middle, yang on the outside and yin on the inside, in line with Taoist feng shui.

The above three characters of "Nine Dragons View" look thick and strong at first glance, but at the second glance they are tender, affectionate, and have a certain artistic conception, which is obviously from the hands of Taoism.

And there is an abrupt wooden sign on the right side of the gate, which says that peers are not allowed to enter!

When I saw these words, I shook my head slightly. It was a little superfluous, and it destroyed the entire aura outside the door.

The Taoist temple is full of incense, and there are many tourists. Everything needs to be paid for burning incense and worshiping the Lord. Even entering the door, you have to buy a ticket, one hundred per person.

The two Taoist priests who checked the tickets seemed to be around forty, with gentle expressions, but I found that these two people were not ordinary Taoist priests, and they had certain abilities.

In other words, these two people have the ability to distinguish whether the person who comes in is a colleague.

All onmyojis have a temperament that is different from ordinary people. They will naturally exude the aura of cultivating Taoism or Buddhism. These auras cannot be hidden. As long as they are onmyojis, they can be caught at a glance.

When Dongfangyue and I went in, there was an unobservable light in the eyes of the two of them, obviously testing us secretly.

We called the people from the Jiulong faction, and Brother Long must have called to inform us that there must be someone waiting for us inside.

However, we will not make trouble in front of so many tourists.

After entering, the buildings inside are not considered magnificent, but they are also quite exquisite. The main Taoist temple is five stories high, and the two side views are three floors. Bring great luck.

From the orientation of the building, the direction of the eaves, the buildings on each floor are different in detail. Three or three form a star, and five doors open the way, forming the image of gossip.

These are simple feng shui theories, and Jiulong Temple obviously pays great attention to feng shui and luck.

Look left for fortune-telling, right look for blessings, but the subjective is actually seeking a child.

Fortune-telling and praying for blessings belong to the Taoists, but most of the begging for a child is a gift from the Buddhist family. There is a saying of Guanyin begging for a child. When did the Taoists start playing this?
Now that we're here, let's get to know each other's details. Jiuyang said that Jiulong Temple is doing some deceitful activities. I want to see how they deceive people.

Dongfang Yue and I entered Left View.

Zuoguan is an old Taoist priest with white beard and hair telling fortune, sitting on the futon with a solemn face, fortune telling is public, no one needs to avoid it, passengers also consciously line up.

I saw the price list on the wall, no matter what is counted, one thousand at a time, one thousand per question, one thousand for more than one minute.

This is a bit speechless, why don't you just grab money?But I don't know, this is the foot of the mountain, and the Taoist temples opened by those sects on Tianshan Mountain, fortune-telling is more expensive than here.

It can be seen that the fortune-tellers who come here are either rich or noble, or they are all in a hurry, or they come here for fame.

More than ten minutes passed, and this old man had counted eight people. These people were either counting money or luck.The old man is outspoken, no matter whether the old man's words are good or bad, everyone praises the old man for being accurate.

There were five people who were unlucky, and the old Taoist gave them talismans. As for the price of the talismans, it was not made public, and the little Taoist priests behind them took these five people away one by one.

Although I don't know much about fortune-telling, I can tell from the words of the old man that what he said is half true and half false, five parts true and five parts false, these ordinary people can't tell.

Even if the luck is slightly bad, the old Taoist will say it is very bad, and if there is a minor disaster, the Taoist priest will say it is a big disaster. In this way, when selling talismans, they can extort a lot of money.

I can't help but sigh, how much money can I make in a day? It's much faster than our ghost catcher company, and it doesn't require any investment, and there is no danger.

We observed for a while, then left, and Dongfangyue went to the right view, the right view is still overcrowded, and tourists are lining up to pray for blessings.

Viewed from the right is seeking talismans to suppress disasters, a talisman painter is drawing talismans non-stop, and eight Taoist priests are in charge of consecrating the light, performing some simple flying swords, burning talismans and other Taoist methods.

Although these Taoisms are simple Taoisms, they are magical in the eyes of ordinary people. The Taoist priests exaggerate the performances of the Taoism very gorgeously, attracting the trust of tourists, and opening the eyes of tourists. call.

Everyone is attracted by Taoism, and the talisman here, the cheapest yellow amulet, costs one thousand a piece!For the cyan talisman, the minimum price for one piece is [-]!
Seeing these passengers take out the red tickets, I couldn't help but feel a little bit pained, this is simply a huge profit!
However, these talismans are indeed consecrated one by one. Although they are very expensive, they have a certain effect. Even if they are liars, they still have professional ethics, so I have no reason to expose them.

Dismantling among peers is a big taboo, I can't tell everyone, in fact, the cost of a talisman is only a few yuan, and it sells for five thousand.

Then, we went to the subjective area. Most of the tourists here are men and women over 30 years old, and there are a few older ones. They are basically couples.

Begging for a child is not public, everyone is queuing up in the main hall to rest, and whoever's turn comes, will be taken out by a little Taoist priest through a side door.

After all, this kind of matter is related to everyone's privacy, and it is common sense not to make it public.

I explained the things here to Dongfangyue all the way, Dongfangyue was secretly amazed, and expressed her incomprehension of the Taoism in our world.

Dongfangyue suddenly said: "Since your world's Taoism is so effective, I also want to see it. Anyway, I also want a child. You know, I am a little old, and it is not easy to have a child. We will also draw a number." , go in and have a look."

I whispered: "The people we beat them must have been targeted. Don't act rashly now. We will settle accounts with them in the dead of night."

"Are you afraid that I will cause trouble? Alarmed ordinary people?" Dongfang Yue knew what I was thinking, and said, "Don't worry, you have said that you must keep a low profile and not reveal your strength in front of ordinary people. Anyway, we are idle, I'm just bored and having fun, don't worry."

That being the case, of course I must agree to the beauty's request.

We drew numbers and waited until evening when it was finally our turn.

A little Taoist led us in through the side door and walked through a yard. After about 5 minutes, we came to a row of quaint wooden houses, and then let us enter a room.

"You two wait in the room first, my master will come right away." After the Taoist went out, he closed the door.

The decoration of the whole room is simple and simple. There are a set of tables and chairs and a few potted flowers, and there are no other items. The room has no windows, which makes people feel a little weird.

We sat at the table and chatted, not long after, Dongfang Yue suddenly said, "Did you smell a fragrance?"

"Fragrance?" I asked strangely, "No, where did the fragrance come from?"

"Not good! Absolutely, it's Mixiang!" Dongfang Yue hurriedly held her breath, and dropped a pill into her mouth.

Seeing Dongfang Yue's actions, I was taken aback, but I still couldn't smell any fragrance.

So I immediately activated my skills, and my sense of smell became a little sharper. Sure enough, I felt a faint fragrance filling the whole room. I followed the source of the fragrance and sensed it carefully. Purple orchid.

As soon as I used my skills, Mixiang took effect quickly in my body, and my brain suddenly felt a little dizzy.

Dongfangyue hastily took out a elixir and gave it to me. In a short while, the dizziness disappeared.

I have to say that Moyu's Qingxin Pill is really easy to use.

The two of us immediately walked to the pot of purple orchids. There was no problem with the flowers. Behind the pot, we found a small incense burner, and this invisible fragrance came from the incense burner.

Dongfangyue said angrily: "This fragrance is very strong, if we don't detect it in advance, even we will be fascinated! It's really hateful!"

I also didn't expect that the enemy would deal with us so quickly, and said: "Obviously the enemy has been prepared for a long time, and they are coming towards us. They know that we are masters, so they prepared such a powerful Mixiang."

Speaking, Dongfang Yue was about to smash the incense burner, I hurriedly stopped, and said: "Since we have already taken the elixir, the mist is useless to us, let's not startle the enemy, let's see what they are going to do, when the time comes, give them a surprise."

Dongfangyue's eyes lit up, and she agreed with my decision, so the two of us lay down on the table and pretended to be dizzy.

About five or six minutes later, I heard a conversation outside the door.

"How long."

"15 minutes."

"hold on."

"The average person is fascinated in 1 minute, but it's been 15 minutes, and you still have to wait?"

"They are not ordinary masters, we'd better be cautious."

After a few minutes, the door was pushed open.

"This is a good pair of men and women. The man will be given to Xiangu to enjoy, and the woman will be sent to the master's room. Remember, this woman is the person who is personally ordered by the master. If you dare to touch a finger! You will be abolished! "

Several people next to him should be yes again and again.

Enjoy?What's the situation?I was suddenly confused.

I thought they had us hooked and were going to teach us a lesson, or lock us up for torture and blackmail.

Women can still enjoy it when they take it away, but what can I enjoy as a man?I have absolutely no idea what this enjoyment means.

Dongfang Yue didn't explode either, so I'll continue to pretend to be dead.

I didn't dare to open my eyes, and felt that the bag on my body was taken away, and then I was picked up by a person, who ran forward quickly.

After a few minutes, I felt that this person was walking downhill all the time, and there seemed to be a yin energy gradually appearing around him.

Not long after, I first heard the sound of the door opening. As soon as the door opened, I felt a very heavy yin energy coming towards me, which made my heart tense involuntarily.

The Taoist put me down, threw me on the ground, and said to the people next to him: "This man is new, you clean him up and serve the fairy at night."
