Lanke Chess Edge

Almost an hour passed by, but the group of people hadn't reached the foot of Yanxia Peak, and they were still walking in the Yunshan Mountain, which was more than a little slower than when Qi Wen came.

For Qi Wen, Yunshan is already used to walking, but for Huang Xingye, the mountain road is rough, and he is not very friendly to his four servants, especially when carrying things, it is better to be reluctant .

After all, Li Mian is also a martial artist. Although he is not a master of the rivers and lakes, he can be counted in Dongle County. At the other end of the county government, the county captain is better than Li Mian. If other arresters don't work hard A single is not as good as Li Mian.

Looking at Qi Wen, who was walking like flying ahead, and then at the basket of things behind him, Li Mian couldn't help sighing.

"This little Taoist really doesn't know martial arts? It's an exaggeration to say that this physique is used to walking on mountain roads!"

Huang Xingye looked at the loads carried by the servants. Four people carried two sets of loads. The baskets under the shoulder poles were not big. There were cloth, brocade, wine, and cakes. In terms of weight, the items contained should not be as heavy as Qi Wen's baskets. After all, Qi Wen's basket was stuffed with bacon and eggs, as well as pumpkin and taro from farmers, all of which were bulky.

"Huh...huh...it's not surprising, it's not strange, the more it's like this...huh...this cloud mountain view, the more, the more it shows that it's right...huh..."

Huang Xingye is also getting older. Although he hasn't put on much weight, his physical strength is weak after all. After climbing the mountain for so long, he is already out of breath.

Qi Wen still feels quite relaxed at the moment. In fact, if he had been carrying heavy loads for such a long walk before, he would have been very tired, but recently he feels that his physical strength has improved a lot.

After climbing up this gentle hillside and finally reaching the foot of Yanxia Peak, Qi Wen turned around with a little excitement and yelled at the crowd who had finished driving a few feet behind.

"Everyone, work harder, we have already reached Yanxia Peak, and we can start climbing the mountain!"

ah? Ready to start climbing?

So what were we doing just now?

Huang Xingye and the others were a little dazed. They thought they were about to arrive at Yunshan Mountain, but they didn't expect to wait for such a sentence, then looked up at the towering Yanxia Peak, and swallowed subconsciously.

Not counting the height of this hillside and not considering any calculations such as altitude, starting from Qi Wen's feet at this moment, Yanxia Peak is about 150 feet high, and Yunshan Temple is about 100 feet high.

Although it is actually not that high, but the slope is much bigger. During the climbing process, we stopped and stopped, and when we arrived not far from Yunshan Temple, Huang Xingye and a few servants were already exhausted. Even Li Mian, who had been helping Huang Xingye all the time, was sweating profusely.

Qi Wen wiped the sweat from his forehead with his cuff, and shouted excitedly at the Taoist temple.

"Master, Mr. Ji~~~ Here is a guest~~~~"

After a few shouts, Taoist Qingsong and Ji Yuan who had already heard the movement came out together.

"Hehehe... A few believers have come from afar, and some are welcome from far away!"

"Please, please, please come to Yunshan Temple to rest!"

Taoist Qingsong exchanged greetings, and stepped forward together with Ji Yuan, helping them carry the burdens that they had taken over from several servants to the temple, this is not a place where they refuse to accept gifts.

Looking inside, Ji Yuan and the two Taoists moved out a few stools and chairs from the kitchen and the two rooms respectively, and asked them to sit and rest by the kitchen.

In addition to the Taoist tea, some snacks brought by Huang Xingye and others were also directly taken out for everyone to eat together.

This will consume a lot of physical strength, even if it is a gift brought by myself, a few people will not be polite.

After the visitors had rested for a while, especially Huang Xingye had recovered, Daoist Qingsong asked them why they came.

"I don't know why a few believers came to my Yunshan Temple? I heard from Qi Wen that they came to thank you? This gift is a bit heavy."

Huang Xingye sorted out his thoughts, this time his rhetoric was different from what Qi Wen said before, he opened his mouth to ask for help.

"Daoist Qingsong, you must save me! I'm in big trouble!"

Huang Xingye pleaded, stood up and bowed and bowed again and again.

"Boss Huang, what happened to you...?"

Daoist Qingsong who hurriedly got up to support Huang Xingye was also surprised, even Ji Yuan who was sitting near the kitchen door frowned.

"Daoist, Mr. Huang has to thank you first for this matter. You saved my life when you unwrapped the lottery for me..."

Huang Xingye first recounted exactly what he had said to Qi Wen on the road before, but this man was much more detailed, even including the matter of suspecting that the Land Lord saved his life.

"Since Boss Huang has already reported to the authorities, and the county government is also doing its best to investigate, even if the principal culprit escapes temporarily, it should not be able to threaten you."

Taoist Qingsong was a little puzzled.

"Oh, Taoist priest, it would be great if this is the case! But some time ago, I felt that the Lord of the Land helped me, so I went to the temple in the town to thank! Although the temple of the Earth in our town has not yet been repaired, the statue of the God of the Earth has been erected. Big fish and big meat are going to be offered..."

This was a good thing, and the uninformed people around were puzzled, so Huang Xingye paused and continued.

"After Huang made an offering, he used a cup to ask the God of the Land if he had turned the corner... But the cup fell to the ground three times, and there was no sacred line. Huang was flustered and fell six times in a row, and nine times he fell down every time. Sheng Yao, the tenth time even the cup was broken..."

"hiss……"

Hearing this, Taoist Qingsong gasped, he was well versed in divination, and he knew better than Huang Xingye that the hexagrams here were dangerous, if he hadn't been sitting next to him, he might not have been able to calm down at this moment.

The cup is the same as the stick bucket. It is a kind of fortune-telling tool that is often used in temples. It is generally made of the bamboo root of golden bamboo, which is cut in half, and some are replaced by two shells of a small clam. Two fingers wide.

It is a simple way for pilgrims to communicate with the gods. Some spirits and some don't work, which has something to do with the gods themselves and the piety of pilgrims.

The cup is dropped by the pilgrim himself from a height of several feet. One front and one back represent the harmony of yin and yang, which is a "sacred line" or "auspicious".

In the case of Huang Xingye, it is obviously impossible for the land company not to respond.

"So because the land lord responded that you were dangerous, Boss Huang came to me and wanted me to help you calculate it carefully?"

Taoist Qingsong analyzed it, but Huang Xingye shook his head uneasily.

"It's more than that, it's more than that...the Lord of the Land..."

Speaking of this, Huang Xingye seemed to have lingering fears, and spoke with a more nervous tone.

"On the second day, I went to the Earth Temple to offer incense in a restless mood. I found that many people from the town surrounded the temple. After asking, I found out that the image of the Earth was destroyed last night. I went into the temple to see that the Earth Grandpa's left hand was torn off..."

When Huang Xingye said this, his face was extremely ugly. At that moment, he suddenly realized that the statue of the Lord of the Land was definitely not destroyed by bandits as the villagers talked about, and it was probably destroyed by some terrible thing.

Listening to Huang Xingye's words, all the people present felt a chill rise from the soles of their feet and go straight to the top of their heads, even for people like Li Mian who knew something about the situation.

Taoist Qingsong's face was even paler, even if he usually tried to die, he knew that this matter was definitely beyond his ability.

"Huang, Boss Huang, this... Yunshan Temple is just a small temple in the wild, and I'm just a poor Taoist priest who tells people's fortunes. I can't take care of you..."

Huang Xingye's face was uglier than crying, and he kept bowing and begging.

"Daoist Qingsong, I know it was because I was blind at the time. You actually wanted to control me in front of the temple that day. It was because I didn't know what to do and had a bad attitude. I didn't listen to persuasion several times and left. I beg you to give me another chance." , Huang must not forget the kindness of the Taoist priest!"

Daoist Qingsong also panicked, this kind of thing was too weird, he even forgot that the great god Ji Yuan was nearby.

"Boss Huang, you misunderstood, I..."

But before Qi Xuan could finish speaking, Ji Yuan, with a serious face, spoke out loud for the first time.

"May I ask Boss Huang, can you ask the City God of the Town God Temple in Dongle County?"

Ji Yuan's voice was clear and rich, as if there was some kind of calming power that made everyone in the venue calm down.

This matter is full of weirdness, he has the ability to attack the Lord of the Earth, but Huang Xingye, a mortal, is still running around?
