Seven Strings in Dreams

Monk: "Have you thought it through? If you become my brother, the Temple will never let you go if they find out."

Geluo put away his smile and said seriously: "Brother, I won't hide it from you. If I hadn't been desperate and forced to find a way out, I would never have gone to the temple to be an elder. Why did Jiayu and I come here all these years? Of course, it's because we are all brothers in distress. It's not just one or two days that we have been troubled by the temple. We are used to it! To be honest, the temple has given us something that we don't know whether it is poison or curse. I, Geluo, have long put life and death aside! Now I just live one day at a time."

Monk: "It shouldn't be a curse. Their spells rely on other forces to work. I suspect it's a poison, but poison is too common, unless it's something that's neither poison nor poison. Maybe there's some illusion mixed in."

Geller: "I don't know the details, but it's possible that the temple tampered with the elixir they provided to us."

Wulan: "It's best for outsiders to check this. According to what you said, all the elders and saint ladies of the temple are under the control of the saint girl. It's really not comfortable to have your life in the hands of others."

Monk: "Could it be possible that there is a mastermind behind the Saint's Palace?"

Geller: “I haven’t really thought about this.”

Wulan: "This is also a direction, but you two can't get away for the time being."

Geller: "We are not many in number. If the Saint's personal guards and secret guards are also controlled by the Saint, that would be scary."

Monk: "Are you sure now that there is no problem with your spiritual consciousness?"

Geller: "I have tried this before. I used the phantom stone to record my daily life for a whole year, including my training, and there were no problems. But after entering the temple, my training was not as smooth as before, as if I had been deprived of my talent."

Wu Na: "Deprive of talent?"

Wulan patted Wuna's hand.

Wulan: "Child, you don't need to get involved in these things. When we get out, Ali and Aji will talk to you about the matter between you and Yixi. When there is a result, Ali will talk to you in a good way."

Monk: “Have you decided?”

Wulan: "It's none of your business!"

All of Ulan's good temper was reserved for people other than Monk.

Ge Le: "By the way, has Yeshi never accepted the temple's test?"

Wulan rubbed Yixi's head.

Wulan: "The temple sends an envoy every five years. The last time was last year, when Yeshi fell ill, so I took him to seek medical treatment."

Ge Le: "If I remember correctly, the messenger who came last year should have been a witch doctor."

Wulan smiled and said, "How could I dare to use the witch doctor in the temple? I didn't ask him for help. I just took Yeshi and left half a month in advance. The two messengers didn't gain anything in the village, so they went to other villages. After visiting so many small fishing villages, how could they remember Yeshi?"

Geller: "I missed this test, but I'm afraid I won't be able to avoid it next time. If it happens twice in a row, those old witches will definitely find out about the problem."

Wulan: "You call me old witch so easily! The ladies in the temple are so beautiful that they are as beautiful as fairies. Even the selection of maids requires both beauty and talent."

Geller: "Entering the Holy Temple is like stepping half a step into the Fairy Hall. Among a hundred, ninety are fox spirits, and nine are flower spirits..."

Monk coughed twice to signal Gelu to stop talking, after all, Wu Na and Yi Xi were still there. Yi Xi was fine, he didn't understand either, but Wu Na's neck and ears were red. Even through the veil, one could imagine that her face must have been red.

Geller quickly stopped talking and chuckled to hide his embarrassment.

It's not to mention that the temple sounds like it's sacred and inviolable, but in fact, it's a mess. Especially after the current Saint Aruna took office. Now the only clean name left in the temple is its name.

Saint Aruna relied on her beauty to keep a bunch of male lovers. Those male lovers were so arrogant that those who didn't know them would think they were big shots. But they were just a bunch of playthings!

There are four holy ladies around Aruna, who are her four confidants, one is a stingy person, one is a flatterer, one is a good person, and one is a real villain. The current temple is really dominated by yin and yang, and evil spirits are in power. It is hard to describe.

People in the outside world who don't know the truth are still rushing to the Holy Mountain. After all, the Holy Temple will provide some cultivation resources to the disciples who enter the Holy Mountain. Those children from poor families still desperately want to gain a foothold in the Holy Mountain. The disciples with no talent on the outskirts of the Holy Mountain are still good. There is really no need to get involved in the inner hall of the Holy Temple. Especially those boys and girls who have no self-protection ability and no mind, entering is like jumping into a fire pit. The Holy Mountain today is still the Holy Mountain of the past, but the Holy Temple is no longer the Holy Temple of the past.

Wu Lan quickly changed the subject.

Wulan: "Wuna, what treasures did you take this time?"

Wu Na first took out the Danxue soft sword from her waist.

A few people sat together, and there was nothing else to discuss, so they had to discuss the treasures they had obtained this time.

Everything was peaceful in the Yin Yang Tai Chi Pavilion. The people in the pavilion thought that only a short time had passed, but in the outside world, a whole day had passed.

During this period, Henglan Villa was in chaos.

Fortunately, the left protector Linlang and the second sister Amber were good at divination and knew that they were not in danger. But they couldn't figure out the direction, so they were very anxious.

The spies in Henglan Villa were ready to make a move, but the several guardians did not dare to act rashly without the order of the high priest.

The fishermen in the small fishing village were waiting outside Wu Na's house, denouncing Meng Xianyu and demanding that she kowtow and apologize within three days and then get out of the small fishing village, otherwise they would sacrifice her to the sea god.

Wu Na's two brothers were guarding outside Wu Na's house. The previous village chief had already searched the house with his men, but no one was hiding there.

The left protector Linlang had already sent people to inform the villagers early in the morning that the high priest was sending people to investigate the whole story. It can be basically confirmed that it has nothing to do with Wu Na and Meng Xianyu.

The villagers were half-believing and half-doubting. Linlang took out some of the magic blood cone snails that Liya and the other girls had caught. The villagers now pointed the finger at Wulan, because those children did not understand the horror of the magic blood cone snail, but Wulan knew it clearly.

Now, no matter how Linlang's men explained, they couldn't control the villagers. They had no choice but to bring out the Left Protector and said that Linlang would come in person to explain what happened to everyone.

The men finally got away and came back, just as Linlang and his team had finished their morning training. Linlang was overwhelmed when he heard this. He had a lot of things to deal with, so he didn't have time to fool around with the villagers.

Linlang went to report to Monk, only to find out that none of them were in the manor. She quickly did some divination and found that she couldn't see through it, but she knew that they were not in danger.

Linlang hurried to find Amber and asked her to tell her fortune, but she was surprised that she couldn't figure out the whereabouts of the high priest and his companions.

Linlang had no choice but to bite the bullet and deal with the mess.

The key is that there are so many things to deal with these days. If it were just some trivial matters on weekdays, it would be fine. Now that Monk is not here, Linlang is really a little flustered.

These brothers and sisters are all a worry to me.

Linlang didn't sleep all night, and didn't go to the back mountain to practice martial arts the next morning. Linlang went down the mountain with Shanhu, who was disguised as Wu Na.

Linlang: "Shanhu, do you understand what I mean?"

Coral: "I know! You've said it several times! Just tell those villagers that they saw Liya and the others knock Wulan unconscious, tie her up, and throw her onto the reef. Then they swam to the reef in the distance and were attacked by the magic blood cone snails. And Miss Xianyu was also attacked by the magic blood cone snails in order to save Wulan, and is now unconscious. The high priest has restored the situation at that time through divination. Now I am the only one who is awake. When the others wake up, the truth will be revealed. I hope everyone will not affect the high priest's rescue. After the matter is settled, the high priest will come in person and hold another sea sacrifice."

Linlang: "Yeah! You look pretty good in women's clothes"

Shanhu: "Master Left Protector, why don't you let Sister Amber dress up as Wu Na? I think both of them have cold personalities. I'm so lively and cute, aren't you afraid that I'll mess it up for you?"

Linlang: "Let Amber come down the mountain with me? Are you kidding? You know she's always around Zhuji! Zhuji is always around patients and medical books. I'm not the boss, I can't order them around."

Coral nodded and said, "Ah, so he bullies us kids all day long."

Linlang: "I promised you a benefit, but I won't let you work for nothing! At worst, if you sneak down the mountain again next time, I'll cover for you."

Coral blinked in a dog-like manner to show his agreement.

Linlang covered her face and said, "You are dressed as Wu Na now, don't make that expression!"

Coral: "Hmph, if you don't want to do it, then don't do it."

Linlang coaxed Shanhu to go and give the villagers a brief explanation. Fortunately, there were people waiting at the foot of the mountain, so the villagers did not dare to act rashly.

Linlang appeased the villagers and finally managed to get a deadline of half a month.

The villagers originally said the deadline was three days, but Shanhu appeared in the guise of Wu Na and made the matter more serious. Moreover, these people could not wake up within three days.

Finally, Linlang managed to get a deadline of half a month with her eloquent speech.

The villagers had no choice but to investigate the matter thoroughly. The two elders of the temple were also involved. Since the temple and the high priest were all involved, they would definitely be able to get to the bottom of the matter.

When they heard that it would take another half a month, many fishermen started to prepare to go out to sea again and would be back in about ten days.

Some villagers disagreed. After all, it was unlucky that something went wrong during the annual sea sacrifice, or even that someone died! But if they didn't go out to sea, they would have no income. Most of the villagers had elderly and children, and the whole family depended on the sea for their livelihood. They didn't dare to go to the sea these days, fearing that there would be more blood cone snails on the beach.

These things have nothing to do with Linlang and the others. After Linlang and the others finished dealing with the things here, they told their subordinates to continue to secretly guard Wu Na and Wu Lan's home and send messages immediately if there is any situation.
