Chapter 565: Destroyed Taoist Temple

"I hope this heavy rain will stop soon. We can't waste any time."

A cave owner took a sip of wine and said in a deep voice.

They had to deliver the poison to Boss Wu in time, and then Boss Wu would find a way to put it into Tianshan Tonglao's food.

If you waste time, you may fail at the last moment.

If you travel in the rain, the poison may get wet.

In order to buy this poison, they spent one million taels of silver. Although the difference between the two families was not much, this was their hope to escape from Lingjiu Palace and they could not afford to lose it.

"The rain should stop tomorrow."

Island Master Ou said in a deep voice.

At this moment, Island Master Ou suddenly made a hushing gesture to everyone. Everyone immediately stopped talking and pricked up their ears, hearing the sound of footsteps coming.

Four people were seen hurriedly walking into the dilapidated Taoist temple. Their arrival immediately alerted the people from the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands who were sitting around the fire, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Their eyes were fixed on these four people. Island Master Ou and his companions frowned. There were four people again, but this time there were two men and two women, and their ages did not match.

These four people were exactly Lu Chen and his companions, but they had all put on makeup. Mu Wanqing made up as a man, and Lu Chen made up as a middle-aged man, so they were not recognized.

Lu Chen and the other three patted the rain off their bodies and said in a deliberately hoarse voice: "The weather is not good. It's raining. Fortunately, there is a dilapidated Taoist temple here, otherwise we wouldn't even have a place to hide from the rain today."

"Master, it's because you insisted on going to Xixia, otherwise we would have encountered such terrible weather."

Li Mochou, playing the role of Lu Chen's wife, complained to Lu Chen.

Lu Chen glared at her and said unhappily, "An old friend of mine is an official in Xixia. He invited your master to come this time. How can I not go? Our family still depends on him for food."

"You only know how to curry favor with the Xixia people."

Li Mochou rolled her eyes.

"If we don't flatter others, how will our whole family eat?"

Lu Chen said with an unhappy look.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

A small leader came over, glanced at Lu Chen and his group with sharp eyes, and shone the torch in his hand towards the faces of Lu Chen and the other three.

Lu Chen quickly raised his hands to show that he was not a threat, and said to them: "My fellow heroes, we are just travelers passing by. We encountered this sudden heavy rain and came here to take shelter. We have no intention of disturbing you heroes."

"Passing by? There are usually few people in this remote area."

The little leader stared at Lu Chen closely, and unconsciously tightened the weapon in his hand.

Seeing this, Lu Chen hurriedly shouted, "Don't be impulsive, heroes. We really don't mean to disturb you. If it's inconvenient for you, we will leave here now."

At this time, the voice of an island owner rang out from the crowd: "Forget it, there is only this dilapidated Taoist temple nearby, let them take shelter here, and don't embarrass them."

The little leader glared at Lu Chen and then sat back down by the fire.

"Thank you all heroes, I am grateful to you all, I am so grateful."

Lu Chen thanked them quickly and brought the three girls to the wall, putting some distance between them.

It was raining heavily outside and the sound of rain was still pouring, but the atmosphere in the Taoist temple was a little tense. Although they let Lu Chen and the other three in, they had been observing Lu Chen and the other three in secret. However, when they saw that Lu Chen was sitting in the corner and did not look like an enemy, they gradually relaxed their vigilance.

Lu Chen and the others leaned against the wall, the four of them huddled together.

Lu Chen deliberately tried to find a topic, and said, "All the heroes look like people from the martial arts world. I wonder which sect you are from?"

"shut your mouth!"

A big man said viciously.

Lu Chen shrank his body and acted very vividly.

Seeing this, the big man snorted coldly and said, "If you keep talking, I'll kill you."

"Master, they are so fierce."

Li Mochou shrank into Lu Chen's arms, and Mu Wanqing was so angry that she pinched Lu Chen's thigh hard.

Lu Chen was speechless. He just let Li Mochou pretend, but he didn't expect her to take advantage of him. Could it be...

Lu Chen didn't think about it any further. She didn't dare to touch Li Mochou. Although she was very beautiful, she was thorny.

The atmosphere was a little silent. Not long after, the shabby door of the Taoist temple was pushed open again. A cold wind mixed with heavy rain blew in, and then two figures walked in.

As soon as these two people walked in, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The people from the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands stood up one after another, their eyes full of vigilance.

The people who came were Murong Bo and his son, Murong Fu. Murong Fu was dressed in a white shirt, holding a folding fan, with a gentle smile on his face. He looked around and finally his eyes fell on Lu Chen's four people. He just paused on them and did not recognize Lu Chen. Finally, his eyes looked at the island owners and cave masters.

Murong Bo and Murong Fu, the father and son, are outstanding people even if they don't emit any aura. These island owners and cave masters are all veterans and know that these two people have extraordinary identities.

"Everyone, it's raining too hard outside. I think you all have no objection to my father and I taking shelter from the rain."

Murong Fu's voice was low and powerful, and his eyes were as sharp as torches as he swept over everyone.

At this time, the atmosphere in the Taoist temple was tense. People from the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands gathered around them, weapons drawn, ready to attack the two of them at the command.

They are now preparing to do something big, and the news cannot leak out. The reason why they did not take action against Lu Chen and his four companions is because Lu Chen and his four companions are dressed as businessmen and do not pose any threat, while Murong Bo and Murong Fu, the father and son, can be seen at a glance as people from the underworld.

"You look like you are from the underworld. What are your names?"

An island owner looked at Murong Fu and asked in a deep voice.

"My name is Murong Fu, nice to meet you all."

Murong introduced himself with a smile, his tone full of strong confidence.

As soon as he said this, all the island owners and cave masters were shocked.

Of course, they had heard of the reputations of Qiao Feng in the north and Murong in the south. Now, when they saw Murong Fu appear in front of them, they were immediately shocked.

They couldn't help but look at each other. Although Murong Fu's reputation in the Song Dynasty was not good now, and he was even a wanted criminal by the court, there were still many people who admired Murong Fu.

An island owner looked at Murong Fu and sneered, "There are many people pretending to be Murong Fu in the martial arts world, and many of them died in my hands. It is rumored that the Murong family has a skill called "returning the favor the way you would have them do to you", which is quite amazing. Let me, a small person, see for myself whether it is as powerful as the legend says."

After saying that, without giving Murong Fu a chance to refuse, he flashed and attacked Murong Fu, the ghost-head broadsword in his hand chopped towards Murong Fu's chest with a sharp sound.
