Chapter 343: Heroic Soul Returns to the Prosperous World - Inside Xuanzhen Temple
The business car drove into a motel, which was almost entirely occupied by travelers. Everyone went to their respective rooms to rest and prepare for the upcoming investigation.
The driver left after dropping off the person. All he could do was share the information with the other party. After all, if he wasn't too ordinary, he wouldn't have survived until now. Also because he was too ordinary, he couldn't help much.
Around two o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was at its strongest, a group of people obviously dressed as tourists walked out of the subway entrance, and the heat wave in the air hit them in the face.
Lu Zhenjun was wearing a straw hat and he said in a loud voice:
"It's really a torture in this hot weather. The navigation shows that we'll reach Xuanzhen Temple in about 700 meters. My friends all said that they prayed here and it worked. I'm going to burn some incense today."
Tiechui replied, "Hurry up and go, it's too hot. It's all your fault. If you hadn't delayed us, would we have arrived at this time?"
Both of them spoke loudly, and their conversation attracted the smiling gazes of passers-by.
Xuanzhen Temple is a temple built in a park. The surrounding 50,000 square meters are parks, and the temple is located in the southeast direction of the park, so there is a lot of room for operation.
Zhou Leng had been walking at the back of the group. The moment she stepped into the temple, she felt a burning sensation that made her frown slightly. She turned her head to look at Wang Keshan and asked:
"Do you have any special feelings?"
"It's a very comfortable feeling. To be exact, it's a very comfortable feeling."
Zhou Leng didn't say anything else but remained alert secretly.
Wang Keshan asked: "What's wrong? Is there anything unusual?"
"This doesn't feel right. Follow me closely."
Wang Keshan nodded.
There were very few people in the temple at this time, and the front and back halls were somewhat empty. A few believers were kneeling devoutly. They walked through the front hall and went straight inward. After passing several large halls enshrining different statues of gods, everyone arrived at the Ksitigarbha Hall.
When they stepped into the hall, they saw a wall full of golden tablets. These were longevity tablets dedicated to the deceased. A faint sandalwood scent surrounded their nostrils, and no one felt anything unusual, but Zhou Lengliang felt that the burning sensation was even stronger.
Zhou Leng closed his eyes. When your eyes deceive you, use your soul to feel.
What is this feeling? It's like you are suddenly awakened from a deep sleep in the middle of the night. You feel someone is peeping at your house from outside the door. You open the peephole and look out, and you see the other person's smiling but evil eyes looking at you. This moment of creepiness makes people instinctively shudder and retreat.
Even someone as powerful as Zhou Leng was trembling at the evil gaze. She focused her mind and attacked with her soul, and the evil gaze was dispersed, like a thick fog dispersing. What she saw was still the same wall, but there were only four longevity cards left on the wall, and the rest had all disappeared.
There is only one tablet in each of the four directions of southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest in the main hall. The golden light seems sacred and inviolable, but the names on it reveal sin and blood. They are the names of the island country's Class A war criminals.
"Humph, you guys don't deserve it!"
Several people in the hall were exploring around, and then they heard Zhou Leng's words. They turned their heads and saw someone with his eyes closed but a sarcastic look on his face.
Tiechui and his men quickly gathered together and took out their magic weapons to defend themselves.
Zhou Leng raised his hands above his head and made the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head gesture. In an instant, the hall in everyone's eyes changed. It was dark all around, with only four longevity tablets shining.
Four green lights flew out of Zhou Leng's hand and attacked the four immortality cards respectively. The green light and the golden light confronted each other, devouring and biting each other. In a moment, the golden light disappeared, and the four immortality cards also shattered and dissipated.
A cold atmosphere suddenly enveloped the few people. Something seemed to be moving in the darkness, and a rustling sound reached their ears.
Lu Zhenjun asked in a low voice: "Senior, what's going on?"
Zhou Leng said: "This hall is a formation, which contains hidden secrets. Now I have broken through the first layer. Now the formation is attacking us. This formation is controlled by someone. It will take me some time to break it. You guys hold on."
Everyone here felt extremely cold and terrifying, only Wang Keshan felt comfortable. It seemed that the environment here made his soul slowly relax and become stronger. However, he did not think much about it at the moment, but instead held the magic weapon given to him by Lu Zhenjun tightly and made a fighting posture.
Zhou Lengan was concentrating on breaking the magic circle, while Wang Keshan stood beside him. The others held magic weapons in their hands to protect the two of them in the middle.
Pairs of red eyes moved from all directions.
Tiechui took out a talisman from his pocket and raised it into the air. Suddenly, light shone all around, dispelling the fog and allowing several people to see clearly what those red eyes were.
The red-eyed creatures that attacked were all human-shaped, with white hair, cow-like horns on their foreheads, wrinkled dark yellow skin, red eyes that protruded outwards, and big mouths slightly open to reveal yellow fangs. Despite their looks, they had beautiful hands, holding sharp blades in their hands, and attacked the crowd step by step.
In a moment, the two sides came into conflict with each other. Although they looked as illusory as ghosts, their methods were like human warriors who used sharp blades to kill.
Ten minutes later, Lu Zhenjun couldn't help but shout, "What the hell are these things? There are too many of them. How long will it take, senior? We can't hold on any longer."
Tiechui used the magic weapon in his hand to once again disperse the attacking monsters, but soon new ones came forward to attack. The dense red eyes in the distance made people feel frightened.
Zhou Leng did not answer, she quickened the spell movements in her hands.
Two minutes later, a soft green light enveloped everyone. The green light slowly spread, and all the monsters that came into contact with the green light disappeared. When the green halo spread throughout the entire space, there seemed to be a sound of something breaking that spread gently.
In an instant, everyone was back in the hall, but what they saw was no longer the golden tablet of longevity. Instead, they saw four huge pictures of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons hanging on each of the four walls, with bright colors and exquisite details.
Wang Keshan suddenly said excitedly: "This painting, the people in this painting are moving! The people in this painting are alive!"
Lu Zhenjun and others looked at it, but in their eyes the painting was clearly still.
Zhou Leng raised her hand, and all four paintings turned into palm-sized pieces and flew into her hands. She stuffed the paintings into Lu Zhenjun's backpack and said solemnly:
"Come with me."
After Zhou Leng finished speaking, he walked out of the hall first, and several people followed closely behind him. Just after they walked a few dozen meters away, they were blocked by an old man.
"Did you take things that don't belong to you? This is not a good habit."
The old voice that seemed to carry a taste of death made the listener feel inexplicably frightened.
Zhou Leng said in a familiar manner: "Oh, I think this item is good, and it contains what I want. You can borrow it for a few days to enjoy it, and I will return it in a few days."
"Hmph! Just put the things down. Don't force it if it's not yours."
Before he finished speaking, two figures started fighting.
