Reborn Jinshan Temple

Chapter 11 The Snake Demon Haunts
Jiangzhou City is very prosperous, and it finally has a taste of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Li Yi sat by the window of the restaurant, looking at the painting boats shuttling back and forth on the lake, his heart was exhausted.

This place was next to the city gate, and the merchants came and went here to rest their feet, drink wine, talk and laugh endlessly, and it was easy to inquire about some gossip.

Just as he imagined, the governor Liu Hong is not at the mansion these days.

Xuanzang was absent-mindedly eating a bowl of plain noodles, and his mind had already flown to the Jiangzhou government office.

Li Yi could imagine his mood. It was God's will that Xuanzang's mother and son would recognize each other soon, but in his heart, he was even more curious about Liu Hong's origin.

Impersonation is like being an undercover agent. It must be difficult to get in from a single line, not to mention that the replacement took 18 years.

He didn't believe that an ordinary water thief could have this ability.

Thinking about it, Li Yi couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.

"Going to hunt down two witches..."

Through the conversation of everyone, Li Yi easily got the whereabouts of Liu Hong.

The dignified lord of a state actually went to battle to arrest two witches in person. This fake lord of the state must have been too conscientious.

In the restaurant, the silk and bamboo are noisy, and the five colors are confusing.

Compared with those merchants who ate meat and drank heavily, Li Yi and Li Yi seemed a little out of place.

Unexpectedly, he would not get any more useful news, so Li Yi planned to leave with Xuanzang who was eager to see through.

At this moment, a row of green-robed Taoist priests suddenly walked in at the door, who seemed to be disciples of the Shangqing Sect of Maoshan.

"Uncle Master, it was that stinky monk who injured my junior brother and me!" One of the young Taoist priests with a bruised nose and a swollen face turned his eyes around the shop, and then pointed at Li Yi furiously.

At the same time, other Taoists also found Xuanzang who had fled.

"Brother!" Xuanzang turned pale in shock, clutching Li Yi's monk robe, shrinking his head.

While speaking, those Taoist priests had surrounded him from all directions.

It's not a big deal to watch the excitement. Originally, the people in the restaurant were a little curious about Li Yi, the two good-looking monks.

Li Yi frowned slightly, reached out and took off the Zen stick on his back, and let out a long "Keng" sound.

The expressions of all the Taoist priests changed at the same time, and the short and fat Taoist priest in the lead was about to step forward to speak, but saw a strong aura emerging from the other party.

"Peak of Qi refining!" Surprised, he stopped there again.

Li Yi smiled lightly: "Amitabha, the sea of ​​suffering is boundless, and you will be right when you turn back."

He is now full of qi, and half of his foot has stepped into the foundation building stage. When the sound of the Buddha's name fell, it was like a bell ringing, and it instantly overwhelmed all the noise in the restaurant.

Everyone was shocked.

The short and fat Taoist knew that the other party was warning him, his ears burned, and he blushed and "hummed": "Let's go!" Said, and walked away first.

Xuanzang felt relieved, and looked at his senior brother with admiration.

The spectators in the restaurant also breathed a sigh of relief. Although the imaginary battle did not take place, the little monk's words of Buddha shocked a group of Taoist priests, but it also opened their eyes, and became a topic of conversation for a long time in the future .

Li Yi was not in a hurry to break through to the foundation-building period. Along the way, he sorted out some Buddhist scriptures in his memory. Although he couldn't figure out why, his mood became much calmer.

Leaving the restaurant, he took Xuanzang straight to the Jiangzhou government office.

……

In an alley not far from the restaurant, a group of Taoist priests from the Shangqing sect looked at the two monks who gradually faded out of sight in the distance with reluctance.

"Uncle, how could we let them go so easily!?" The young Taoist with a bruised nose and a swollen face looked at the short and fat Taoist with some resentment.

"You know what a fart, if my guess is right, then the little bald donkey's strength may have reached the peak of Qi refining, let alone us, even if there are some more people, there is no way to get benefits from him..." Short The fat Taoist cursed.

All the Taoist priests seemed to have suddenly realized that the uncle's cultivation was only at the peak of the seventh level of Qi refining, and meeting a monk at the peak of Qi refining was naturally like a mouse meeting a cat.

"But... but... just let them leave like this..." The young Taoist priest with a bruised nose and a swollen face couldn't help but said again. They had been entangled with Li Yi before, and they were almost killed. Although they finally took their lives, but this The injuries all over his body may not heal within ten days and a half months.

"Of course I won't just let them go like this. Although I didn't catch them on the spot, the destruction of the Xuanyin Land must have something to do with these two little bald donkeys..." The short and fat Taoist said, pointing to the side A few Taoist priests said, "You guys, follow up secretly, don't lose their whereabouts, I will tell the head teacher and the elders about this!" After finishing speaking, they drifted away.

……

In a mountain depression outside the city, a Taoist priest with a gloomy face looked at the corpses on the ground, and said with disdain: "Hmph, these scholars are useless. They value them so much!"

"Realist Sima doesn't know that although these gentry children are all rich and rich, the forces behind them control most of Jiangzhou. If it weren't for this, how could this junior be able to be the master of the palace for 18 years! "The speaker was a middle-aged man in his early forties, with a square face, and he looked gentle and refined. It was the water thief Liu Hong.

The Taoist priest known as Sima Zhenren frowned. He didn't care about these secular battles. It's just that the Maoshan faction has a lot of connections with the Liu family in Jiangzhou. Come here.

Thinking about it, he looked at the gentry boy who survived by chance in the distance, "You said those two girls just touch your hands, and you can't move?"

The young man was obviously frightened. Hearing his question, he was alert and shouted in horror: "Snakes, snakes, there are snakes everywhere..."

Seeing the contemplative look of Sima Daoist, Liu Hong asked expectantly, "Could it be that the Daoist has already seen something?"

Sima Zhenren nodded: "Although the warriors in the foundation building period can use the innate qi to restrain them, there has never been a female grandmaster in the Tang Dynasty, plus the snake he kept mentioning, it is almost possible It is concluded that those two women are demons but not human beings, and they are also two snake demons..."

"Is there anything a real person can do to get them?" Liu Hong's eyes flashed, and he said cautiously: "I heard that monsters can transform their bodies into human forms only when they have reached a very high level of cultivation."

"Hmph, it's just a cover-up to deceive ordinary people. Judging from the aura left at the scene, at most it's just the peak of foundation building. It's not difficult to capture them." The real Sima looked confident.

"It's so good, the younger generation thanked the real person first on behalf of the people of Jiangzhou!" Liu Hong cupped his hands.

"Haha, where, it's just a matter of raising your hand..."
