Chapter 140 Xie Xuan's Daughter Xie Lingyun

At this time, a large number of soldiers were charging back and forth in the Taoist temple, knocking the disciples inside to the ground.

Under the stunned gazes of Zhang Chen and Cheng Yu, countless soldiers quickly rushed into the main hall and occupied all the hidden blind spots.

Zhang Chen was a little panicked, and looked at Cheng Yu with a pair of eyes: "It's over, is it possible that Huang Tiandao's crime has been exposed? Now the Procuratorate has come to our door?"

"No way! Let's run away." Cheng Yu was stunned and subconsciously hugged Zhang Chen's thigh, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

Zhang Chen was speechless after hearing this. If it were him, there would be no problem for him to escape, but there was still a little kid with him. He couldn't just abandon the little kid and run away by himself, right?
"If you're not afraid of being hacked to death, just run." Zhang Chen muttered unhappily.

Cheng Yu shrank his neck when he heard that, but the two of them stood respectfully in a row in the corner, waiting to be punished.

If Huang Tiandao really gets into trouble and suffers an accident, it won't be too late to find a way to escape then.

It turned out that Zhang Chen and Xiao Douding had overthought. As the soldiers rushed in, they were driven out directly by them:
"You two, get out now!"

Faced with the soldiers' expulsion, Zhang Chen was not angry at all. Instead, he looked happy and turned around and ran away, pulling the little kid.

Only a fool would want to get involved in such a mess.

As the two were expelled from the hall, not long after, soft footsteps were heard outside the hall, and a woman in a red robe was seen walking slowly in from outside the hall.

The woman was wearing a bright red robe, dressed like a man. On the robe was embroidered a golden phoenix with its wings spread out, looking very domineering.

The woman had a beautiful face, with a simple bun on her head. Her eyes were clearly black and white, and looked very clear. It could be said that: the woman by the wine shop was like the moon, and her white wrists were like frost and snow.

The woman was wearing a bright red robe with a golden phoenix on it. She looked like a ball of fire as she slowly walked in from outside the hall.

Behind the woman, five elders from the Taoist temple followed respectfully, following closely behind her, lowering their heads to look at their toes, their eyes glancing around.

The woman came to the center of the hall, looked at the dozen or so statues in the hall, and then said, "I heard that Huang Tian Dao worships the great god Huang Tian, ​​who has boundless magical powers and can transcend the sufferings of the world and resolve disasters. I wonder if it is true?"

The elders' hearts skipped a beat when they heard this. How could they not know what kind of person this great God Huang Tian was? Relieve disasters? Relieve disasters at all!

If God Huang Tian was so powerful, the Dasheng Dynasty would have been overthrown by them long ago. Why should they hide like rats?

At this time, the lecturer hurriedly stepped forward, bowed beside the woman and said: "If you believe, it will come true. If you don't believe, it will not come true. The power of the Great God Huang Tian is boundless. If you want to get the mercy of the Great God Huang Tian and resolve the disaster on your body, you need to be sincere."

"Everyone in the North knows that I suffered a disaster in my childhood and have been suffering from illness ever since. I hope that the Great God of Yellow Sky can help me get rid of the disaster." The woman's voice was cold, but the words she said were chilling:

"Of course, if you can eliminate the disaster that has befallen me, I will naturally reward you handsomely. If you are over-the-top and deceitful, then Huangli Temple should be disbanded as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, all the elders in the Taoist temple showed bitterness on their faces. Don’t they know whether there is a great god Huang Tian in Huang Tian Dao?
It's just a trick to fool people!

At this time, several elders secretly cursed the disciples who were preaching at the foot of the mountain. Those disciples were talking nonsense at the foot of the mountain, but they made those in the mountain run around and try every possible way to make up for it.

Then, the woman in red, Xie Lingyun, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the statue.

After bowing, the woman slowly raised her head, then stood up and looked up at the sculpture of the Great God Huang Tian: "It seems that the Great God Huang Tian did not bless me."

As soon as these words came out, all the elders felt a chill down their spines. They all knew how difficult the woman in front of them was and how vicious her methods were. At this time, Elder Chuanwu said, "The divine is high above, how could it be moved by a mortal's worship? The young lady's worship was ineffective once, I think it's because the number of times you worshipped was not enough to move the divine."

The woman nodded after hearing that, believing the elder who was teaching the skills: "In this case, I plan to stay in the Taoist temple for a while, hoping to use the power of Huang Tiandao's spirit to suppress my illness. I wonder if the elders can agree to this?"

Hearing Xie Lingyun's words, everyone looked at each other. The law enforcement elder muttered to himself, "Of course it's not convenient! This is the rebel's lair. You are the daughter of a big shot in the court. If you stay here and someone finds out something, wouldn't that be asking for trouble? It would be a miracle if it was convenient."

Then the law enforcement elder smiled brightly and nodded to Xie Lingyun, saying, "It's convenient! Of course it's convenient! It couldn't be more convenient. I'll arrange accommodation for you right away."

Who would dare to say that it was inconvenient when facing the daughter of the chief of the Censorate?

"That's good. Don't worry. You will be needed for all our food, clothing, shelter and transportation. I will send people to deliver food and various supplies!" Xie Lingyun said.

"Look at what you said, can the Taoist temple be without your food supplies?" Elder Chuanwu came forward and flattered.

"Come here, quickly arrange a place for you! No, I will arrange it myself." The martial arts elder said to the woman in red, "Your Excellency, please follow me."

The woman in red followed Elder Chuanwu away, and the soldiers in the palace also left. At this time, all the elders looked at the backs of the two people as they walked away, and sighed.

"We're screwed. We actually attracted an evil god! We have countless secrets in Huangtian Dao. If this guy finds out, all of us will be dead. How dare those bastards preaching at the foot of the mountain talk nonsense and attract this evil god. With this girl's personality, if she returns disappointed, I'm afraid we won't have peace." The law enforcement elder cursed angrily.

"What should we do now? Even Xie Xuan can't solve the strange symptoms of her, let alone us? Unless we mobilize the power of incense, there may be a glimmer of hope." Another elder spoke up.

"What should we do now?" someone asked.

"What else can we do? Of course we have to mobilize the power of incense. It's not a top secret that I, Huang Tiandao, control the power of incense. The Inspection Office should know about it. If we can really convert this young lady to Huang Tiandao, maybe Xie Xuan will be dragged into it as well. If we have Xie Xuan's support in our preaching, we can surely take the opportunity to sweep across the entire North." said the elder in charge of miscellaneous tasks.

"We can't make the decision on this matter. I will send a message to the ancestor and ask him to make the decision." The law enforcement elder picked up a stick of incense, came to the statue and lit it. Green smoke came out, and the next moment the green smoke twisted and turned into the shape of Wu Changming.

"What's the matter with you sending me this message?" Wu Changming asked while standing among the incense.

The law enforcement elder quickly told Wu Changming about Xie Lingyun's situation, but saw Wu Changming frowning: "I am entangled with other things and cannot be away at the moment. You just wait patiently, and someone will naturally take care of it when the time comes."

The incense went out, and the temple returned to peace. The elders looked at each other, all staring at each other. At this point, they could only wait patiently. As for Zhang Chen and Xiao Douding, they were very happy because they were exempted from the chores for a day. They returned to the house to practice martial arts or learn to read. The days seemed to have calmed down.

Apart from the fact that the entire Taoist temple was under strict lockdown and people were unable to move around, there were no other impacts.

Of course, the most exciting thing is that the morning martial arts performance has been cancelled. With Xie Lingyun already here, who would dare to organize disciples to practice martial arts on a large scale?
On the third day, an old Taoist priest with white hair and beard came to the Taoist temple. All the elders and disciples in the temple lined up to greet him.

Zhang Chen and Xiao Douding squeezed in the crowd, looking at the old Taoist priest with a slender look and a large field of wheat ears embroidered on his robe, and they were all secretly amazed.

“This person, like Wu Changming, has countless rice ears embroidered on his body. Could he be one of the twelve elders in Huangtian Dao who has the same status as Wu Changming?” A thought flashed through Zhang Chen’s mind.

The elders of Huangli Temple bowed their heads in greeting and called him: Ancestor.

Zhang Chen secretly inquired about it, and a disciple who knew the situation said that this person was one of the twelve direct disciples of the Great Heavenly Master Huang Tiandao: Gu Mingyue.

However, all this had nothing to do with Zhang Chen, and Zhang Chen continued to live his carefree life.

He had caused a big trouble at the foot of the mountain and now he didn't want to go down the mountain for fear of being tracked down.

At noon on this day

Zhang Chen was hiding in the house studying the second rune, when suddenly his pupils shrank and his eyes opened automatically with a flash of golden light. The scenery of the entire Taoist temple suddenly changed, and a vast divine light enveloped the entire yard. In the sky, golden flowers that were imperceptible to mortals were slowly falling from the void.

"This is the power of incense! Has the god of Huangli Temple revived?" Zhang Chen hesitated for a moment, and walked out of the house casually with a kettle in his hand. He looked in the direction of the divine light, only to see that the divine light was gathering in the main hall. There seemed to be a figure shrouded in the divine light standing in the light, like a god descending to earth, overlooking everything in the world.

"This incense method is truly magical!" Zhang Chen said to himself.

But before his thoughts could be transformed, suddenly a black light flew out from the hall and a black smoke rose into the sky, directly shattering the figure in the divine light, and all the light in the void disappeared as well.

The divine light disappeared, and the black light disappeared as well. It seemed that everything had returned to normal, but Zhang Chen knew that this was not normal at all.

"That divine light is the Taoist temple, what is the black light? There seems to be a seal inside. The black seal is so evil, as if an evil ghost has descended." Zhang Chen thought to himself: "Huang Tiandao has suffered a loss!"

In the main hall

Xie Lingyun's face was pale, his entire face was bloodless, and the old man Huang Tiandao opposite him also spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Such a violent aura." Gu Mingyue looked at Xie Lingyun opposite her with a horrified expression.

Xie Lingyun's face was pale, and with the red robe, she looked even weaker and timid, with a hint of disappointment in her eyes: "Even the gods of Huang Tiandao can't do anything?"

Gu Mingyue smiled bitterly and said, "I can't do that unless the Great God Huang Tian personally takes action. If I want to ask the Great God Huang Tian to do that, it depends on whether the young lady is sincere."

He knew that the matter was difficult, otherwise Xie Xuan, who was also a hero, would have solved the matter long ago. This shows how difficult the matter was.

"How do I ask the Yellow Heaven God to help me?"

Xie Lingyun stood in the hall with a pale face, his body was shaky, and his skin was pale without a trace of blood.

Gu Mingyue smiled bitterly: "The Great God Huang Tian is the supreme belief of my Huang Tian Dao. Even my master, the Great Heavenly Master Huang Tian Dao, rarely gets a response. If you want to ask the Great God Huang Tian to help, you need to offer incense and pray devoutly morning and evening. If your sincerity can move the Great God Huang Tian, ​​you may be able to get his attention."

Xie Lingyun showed a hint of disappointment when she heard this. Gu Mingyue's words were too vague. With her intelligence, how could she not know that the probability of this happening was almost zero.

Since Huang Tian Dao had Huang Tian Da Shen and became a force to be reckoned with, apart from that battle to establish his prestige, which allowed Huang Tian Dao to gain a firm foothold in the world, there has been no news of Huang Tian Da Shen making a second move. Huang Tian Dao's Huang Tian Da Shen is extremely mysterious, and even the Inspection Office has not figured out his origins.

Xie Lingyun had no choice but to take a rest after hearing this.

As for Zhang Chen, as the incense in the sky dissipated, his Dharma Eyes slowly closed: "That black aura is very strange. It may not be powerful, but it is indeed difficult to deal with."

He didn't want to cause trouble, so he turned back into the house and continued to crack the second talisman.

He had a hunch that as he delved deeper into the study, the second rune would soon be cracked.

However, no one noticed that when the black jade seal came into contact with the incense spirit, a stream of energy dissipated and actually landed on the black mist lingering on the coffin in the corner of the wall.

The black mist couldn't help but change after receiving the energy of the seal's dissipation. Some inexplicable changes occurred and it began to gradually gather shape.

The days passed little by little, and in the blink of an eye, another three days had passed. On this day, Zhang Chen withdrew from the spiritual world, and then came to the sand table. Looking at the flat yellow sand, he held the wooden stick in his hand but did not write directly. Instead, he stood in front of the sand basin and pondered silently.

"If you don't practice martial arts, what are you thinking about?" The little kid looked at Zhang Chen's back unhappily.

"I'm thinking about something, please don't disturb me." Zhang Chen said.

"Did you make a breakthrough in martial arts?" The little kid became excited upon hearing that and came over to ask.

Zhang Chen glanced at the little kid and ignored him. Instead, he stroked his chin and thought about the final key to the rune.

"This rune is interesting. It is somewhat similar to my immobilization talisman, but not quite the same. In terms of power and potential, I'm afraid it cannot compare to the immobilization talisman. It's just that there is a stroke on this talisman. I always feel that there are some flaws and I can't figure it out clearly." Zhang Chen's wooden stick unconsciously scratched the yellow sand.

"What's there to think about with your scribbles? I've learned them all!" When the little kid saw Zhang Chen ignoring him, he snatched Zhang Chen's wooden stick and drew a stroke on the sand table.
