"That's not Lingquan Temple!"
"Why is it on fire?"
For a time, there was a lot of discussion in the attic.
Everyone didn't care about eating, they all gathered by the window to watch the fun.
Li Yan is no different, standing in front of the window holding a drink.
Suining is located in a basin and plain with hills and mountains, so Lingquan Peak in the distance is very conspicuous.
Before coming, Sha LiFei had collected information.
It is said that there is a spring on the mountain dripping from the rock and flowing continuously, so it is called Lingquan. What makes it even more famous is Lingquan Temple on the mountain.
"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva Three Sisters eats from the same pot and practices each. The eldest sister practices at Guangde Temple, the second sister practices at Lingquan Temple, and only the third sister practices far away, practicing at South Sea Putuo Temple."
Within Lingquan Temple, there are the two Guanyins of Attendant.
Suining area worships Buddhism, especially Guanyin, every family Attendant.
The most conspicuous thing about Lingquan Temple is undoubtedly the towering Guanyin Hall, with its wooden arches and golden glazed tiles, and the golden landscape between the mountains and rivers. It can be seen clearly even from Looking River Tower.
At this moment, not far from the Guanyin Hall, thick smoke was rising, which was particularly obvious under the gloomy sky.
"How did you get out of the water so well?"
"There will be a Dharma meeting soon, so some arrangements must be made in the temple. Some lanterns, Buddha lamps and the like, may have been blown by the wind..."
Everyone watched the excitement for a while and ignored it.
The same goes for Li Yan.
Along the way, he has traveled through mountains and ridges and crossed rivers. He has seen too many scenery and witnessed different folk customs.
Belief is a very complicated thing.
Especially Divine Land, the god worshiped on the earth is often related to history, land and customs.
This is Lord Guan, and the other is Erlang. They are different.
Sometimes, there are even contradictory statements.
But no matter what gods or immortals they are, they can be spread for a long time and be integrated with local customs. There is only one root behind them:
People's expectations for happiness and health.
As long as it has nothing to do with him, Li Yan doesn't bother to bother with him.
"Everyone, come and drink this cup!"
Zou Shaohai said hello and the banquet continued.
Looking River Tower The price is so high, so the banquet is naturally arranged.
The most popular is the three-course meal.
The first is "Suizhou Top Scholar Goose", which was named after the great talent Yang Shen many years ago. After he was the top scholar in high school, he returned to his hometown to visit his relatives. The locals used family traditions to make braised goose to entertain them, which was later called "the top pick goose".
The second is "Lotus Pond Lotus Seed Matchmaker Meat" and the third is "Fresh Bamboo Shoot Zhuo Tong Chicken", both of which taste delicious and unique.
It goes without saying that Shu cuisine is delicious.
Not to mention Wu Ba's eyebrows flying up, even Li Yan and Wang Dao Xuan, after a few rounds of punches, were still struggling.
Living in the open air all year round, I know that good food is rare.
But some people don't care about eating and drinking.
For example, Lushan Sect and Red-Head Dharma Master, most of the time, they chat with and build good relationships with the leaders of the Shu region.
As for those who had enmity with Li Yan, although they had settled their grudges this time, they still felt uncomfortable and left in advance.
Not long after, some sect forces also left one after another.
Zou Shaohai went out to see each other off one by one.
After he was all busy and had almost sent all the guests away, he turned back and found Li Yan people still sitting at the table.
They were the only ones left in the attic.
Even Luo JunAn from the Luo family went to see off the few people who came to help this time to the ferry to take a boat.
They were already full, but Wu Ba could still eat, so they drank tea and waited, not caring about the looks of the people around them.
"Young Hero Li, kindhearted!"
Zou Shaohai raised his thumb, and then sat next to him. After drinking a few cups of tea, he said in a deep voice, "Zou appreciates what happened today."
"Senior joked, and I benefited a lot from it."
Li Yan said a casual polite word.
He knew that Zou Shaohai still had something to say.
Sure enough, Zou Shaohai thought for a moment and said, "Young Hero Li must also be able to see that chaos is growing in the world of Sichuan. What are your plans for the future?"
Li Yan smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Senior, we are wandering immortals. Although we will stay in Shu for a while, we are just passers-by after all and will not take root here."
"Morning trip to Beihai, dusk to Cangwu, good!"
Zou Shaohai smiled and praised, but secretly thought it was a pity. Then he said, "I just took over Divine Fist Society. I don't have enough experts. There are some things that may trouble you Twelve Yuan Chen."
"Easy to say!"
Li Yan also had a smile on his face, "Seniors should be aware of the errands we can do, and at this price."
"Zou is certainly not a stingy person."
Zou Shaohai laughed aloud, thinking secretly that he was a little naughty.
Originally, they wanted to take advantage of this newly established friendship to ask Li Yan to help them with some things, but after listening to these words, it became clear that friendship is friendship and business is business.
But he thought about it for a while, and then said, "It's still about Tang Ling. I'll ask for information first. If I can find it, Divine Fist Society will take care of it myself."
"But there is probably something wrong with this matter. I would like to say hello first. If something really happens, I need your help."
"It's easy to talk about."
Li Yan nodded in agreement, and then asked, "I also have something to do here. I wonder if Divine Fist Society dares to take it?"
"Oh?"
Zou Shaohai's expression remained unchanged, "Young hero, it's okay to just say it."
"It's about the Dragon Worship Sect."
Li Yan told the origin of the Dragon Worship Sect and what he wanted to do, "This is a big problem in Sichuan. If Divine Fist Society can kill it, it will definitely become famous!"
"Jiang God Great Lord, disaster Dragon King Temple..."
Zou Shaohai was also shocked after hearing this, his face became solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "One of Divine Fist Society's responsibilities is to protect the peace of the country, but with Divine Fist Society's current strength in Shu, this matter really can't be done."
"This matter is related to the safety of Shu. I dare not keep it private. I have an old relationship with Guangde Temple Zen Master Zhitong. I would like to ask the young hero to follow me up the mountain tomorrow and inform me of this matter."
"With Guangde Temple taking the lead and Emei Qingcheng joining in, we will be more confident in eradicating these evil spirits."
"That's fine."
Li Yan immediately nodded in agreement.
He didn't think about fighting Dragon Worship Sect alone. After all, it was about the safety of Shu. How could he let these people idle?
Seeing Wu Ba also eating and patting his belly, narrowing his eyes, Li Yan stood up directly and said, "Senior, let's go first, see you tomorrow."
Wang Dao Xuan, Lu San and others tidied up their clothes that were in the way and took out their magic weapons to replace them.
Zou Shaohai noticed something was wrong, "What do you want to do?"
Sha LiFei chuckled, "I'm full, let's eat something after dinner."
"You..."
Zou Shaohai suddenly felt a little dizzy. He had realized that Li Yan and the others were going to make trouble for Shu King Residence's people.
I just used Shu King Residence to break the situation and naturally leaked the news.
Unexpectedly, Li Yan and the others were actually going to kill someone.
Zou Shaohai was a little speechless, "Everyone, are you not planning to reconcile with Shu King Residence?"
"Hahaha..."
Li Yan laughed, his eyes full of ridicule, "With such a huge disparity in status, how can people look at you seriously? Drag you to a muddy pond and give you a good beating. Maybe you will become obedient."
Go ahead and leave with a few people.
Leaving Looking River Tower, they went directly to Suining County.
According to what Zou Shaohai revealed before, these people Shu King Residence are hiding in a big house in the west of the city, and they are also Oil Press Workshop.
Running here, the target is naturally them.
That place is on the road leading to Ruifu Residence. They passed by it twice without finding it, which shows that these people are very good at hiding.
It is very likely that a formation was set up to cover up the aura.
It was already past noon, and the streets in the county town were still crowded, with people coming and going, and the sound of mules and horses neighing constantly.
A few people pretended to be satiated and strolling around, looking around as if they were looking at the goods in some shops.
In fact, the investigation has already begun.
"There are two people watching behind me, a beggar and a footman."
"Don't worry, they are just ordinary people who have received money."
"The formation is set up in the yard, so the falcons can't see clearly."
"As long as people are here..."
While they were talking, they had already approached the mansion.
This house is old, shabby, and has a pungent smell of oil. It is indeed a good place to hide.
At least Li Yan will resist instinctively.
"Do it!"
When they came to the gate, Li Yan suddenly spoke.
Wu Ba exerted force on his legs, his huge body suddenly jumped out, and hit the door of the house sideways.
Boom!
There was a loud noise, and the finger-thick wooden door shattered.
But Li Yan moved faster and had already jumped into the air and rushed up the courtyard wall.
There was a big man in black guarding behind the wooden door. Before he could react, he was knocked away along with the broken wooden door.
These people are worthy of being the elites of the palace.
There were people guarding the door, and others pretending to be oil mill workers, carrying fried fried cakes and pretending to be working.
The loud noise immediately attracted their attention.
"I've been discovered, copycat!"
A sharp sound sounded, and the person who was working immediately pulled out the weapon from the basket and threw out the darts.
None of those sent by Shu King Residence are mediocre.
Whoosh whoosh!
The shrill sound of the hidden weapon breaking through the air immediately forced Wu Ba out.
But Li Yan has also fallen from the wall.
To deal with these people, Li Yan and even Severing Dust Blade were of no use. He exerted force with his feet and rushed directly into the crowd.
He swung his left arm like an axe, directly breaking the arm of the person holding the knife. He leaned forward and knocked the person away. At the same time, he used the move "Flower Hidden Beneath the Leaves" to knock the person from the side away...
The gap in Martial Arts's skills is completely reflected at this moment.
These people are considered elite, but against Li Yan, their numbers are simply not enough to threaten them. They don't even carry firearms, so they are no match for them.
Click, click, click!
Their eyesight could not even follow the movements of Li Yan. Before they could react, they fell to the ground screaming with the sound of continuous fractures.
In Oil Press Workshop, the hidden people heard it and all rushed out.
But Sha LiFei and others have also rushed in.
There was also a warlock on the other side. As soon as he raised a black flag and cast a spell on Li Yan, Wang Dao Xuan raised his finger and muttered something to Coin Sword.
The warlock froze up and couldn't move.
This is called Enchantment Restriction Art, which can be regarded as a kind of spell. The person who casts it is like a nightmare and cannot control the body. The key is to cast the spell quickly.
The other people who rushed out also felt uncomfortable.
"Roar!"
Wu Ba was heard roaring, and it broke a pillar, turned around, and threw it out in a circular motion.
There was a loud noise in the air, and some people were hit so hard that their sternums were shattered, while others rolled around and dodged in confusion.
Sha LiFei and Lu San also took the opportunity to rush over.
One of them waved the scabbard, the other swung the bone. They cooperated with each other and broke several people's hands and feet.
Soon, there were people lying on the ground in the courtyard, with their hands and feet cut off. Some were wailing in pain, and some were gnashing their teeth.
There is naturally a reason why I expended this effort.
After all, this is Suining County City. Shu King Residence people are afraid of being exposed and cannot use New Style Firearm on a large scale, but Li Yan and the others cannot kill in broad daylight.
A warrior's body is as precious as oil.
Unlike Li Yan, they can recover quickly with the help of Great Luo Dharma Body. Once their limbs are interrupted, they cannot do anything again for at least a few months.
It does not violate the bottom line of the yamen, but also causes Shu King Residence to lose strength.
After killing all the people in the courtyard, Wang Dao Xuan immediately took Lu San and Sha LiFei to search around other corners.
Sure enough, although this courtyard is dilapidated, it follows the layout of Mysterious Gate Evasion Technique nine palaces, with town objects placed in various places to form a Feng Shui array.
Wang Dao Xuan was busy leading people to crack the code, while Li Yan twisted his neck, came to the side of the man who just screamed, and said in a cold voice, "Hey, he is still a eunuch. I wonder which Prince did he receive the order?"
The eunuch tried his best and gritted his teeth without saying a word.
"Tsk, tsk."
Li Yan laughed dumbly, "He is still a man, not bad, but I don't know if Shu King Residence cares about you being so loyal?"
As soon as these words came out, the eunuch's face was still full of hatred, but a trace of panic clearly flashed in his eyes.
Li Yan These words hit him right in the chest.
Shu King Residence Today's environment is almost the same as the scene when the princes competed for the throne. The old King of Shus were left to their own devices, while the Princes fought openly and secretly.
Eunuchs like them are like ants. If there is any problem, they will be whipped by the prince's commander.
It's the right thing to do if you do it well, or even if you do it right.
Once you make a mistake, you may lose your life.
"It's Prince Cheng."
The eunuch finally couldn't help it, gritted his teeth and spoke.
If you go back to Shu King Residence, you may not be able to escape with your life. It is better to save your life first and then find a way to leave Shuzhong.
"It's just as I expected..."
Li Yan nodded, murderous intent rising in his heart.
Prince Cheng is the eldest son of the royal family and the one who has taken refuge with Zhai TianBao from the Salt Gang. He has been adding fuel to the flames and making things difficult for him.
Thinking of this, Li Yan continued to ask, "How are you going to deal with me? It's useless to rely on people like this."
The eunuch hesitated for a moment, but seeing Li Yan's face turn gloomy, he said directly, "We don't know, we just got the order to lead you to Lingquan Temple when Buddhist Dharma Assembly happens."
"Lingquan Temple?"
Li Yan frowned, "What's there?"
Didn't Lingquan Temple just catch fire?
"This is the arrangement from above."
The eunuch gritted his teeth and said, "You also said that I am a soft-spoken person. Naturally, I will not let us know about this kind of thing. I only know that there will be people there who will actually kill you!"
"I really want to know..."
Li Yan narrowed his eyes, "Besides, what else do you know?"
The eunuch turned to look at the others and sneered, "When I go back, I will only become a stepping stone for these people. Now I just want to leave alive, so how can I continue to hide it?"
"That's right."
Li Yan nodded and left with everyone.
Not long after they left, Oil Press Workshop was crowded with a large group of people on the street outside, standing on tiptoe to watch the excitement.
But soon, the people were attracted away by another roar.
"Go and see, Lingquan Temple is causing a monster!"
