[R18] The Patriarch of the Demonic Way (newly revised version) – Chapter 98 of “The Patriarch of the Demonic Way (Newly Revised Edition)” [English]
byChapter 98 Hatred Chapter 21
Wei Wuxian took Wen Ning straight to the Guanyin Temple in the city.During the day, he and Lan Wangji explored a road. They planned to come back at night to investigate carefully, decipher the formations in the temple, and see what was suppressed and whether it could be helpful in dealing with Jin Guangyao. Unexpectedly, he fell asleep until midnight, and something like that happened when he woke up, and the plan was ruined.At this moment, Wei Wuxian felt unhappy all over, and he happened to be looking for bad luck in Jin Guangyao’s dark spot.
It was late at night, the lights in every house had been extinguished, and the doors of the Guanyin Temple were closed.Looking from outside the high wall, the courtyard is also dark.But Wei Wuxian climbed up the wall in two steps. Before he could reach the eaves, he suddenly stopped and thought, “That’s not right.”
Wen Ning also froze and whispered, “We have set a boundary.”
Wei Wuxian made a gesture, and the two landed quietly, leaving the gate and walking to a corner at the back of the Guanyin Temple. They carefully climbed up the wall, hiding behind an eaves beast, and then looked into the courtyard.
Seeing this, both of them were stunned.
The Guanyin Temple was brightly lit and full of people.Half are monks, and half are monks wearing gold star snow wave robes.Two groups of people stood mixed together, all holding bows with arrows and swords drawn in their hands. They seemed to be guarding something and were waiting in full formation. They occasionally talked in low voices.It’s just that because there are special barriers on all sides of the Guanyin Temple to hide people’s ears, from the street outside the high wall, the Guanyin Temple seems dark and silent, and the lights, fire and human voices inside can’t be transmitted out.
But what shocked Wei Wuxian was not the barrier, nor the monks and fake monks, but the man in white standing in the center of the courtyard.
Lan Xichen.
Lan Xichen was not bound by anything, even his sword and Dongxiao Caibing were worn on his waist, standing so peacefully among the crowd, and these monks and monks were respectful to him, even Nono should be the same.
Wei Wuxian observed it for a while, then whispered to Wen Ning, “Go back to the inn and bring Hanguang-Jun right away!”
Wen Ning nodded and disappeared immediately.Wei Wuxian didn’t see Jin Guangyao and didn’t know if he was here or if the Yin Tiger Talisman was in his hand. He thought about it for a moment, bit his finger and moved the bloody fingertip to the mouth of the soul lock bag on his waist.He originally wanted to lure a few little ghosts to help him quietly summon some evil creatures.Unexpectedly, at this moment, a sound of barking came from the end of the long street outside the Guanyin Temple.
Wei Wuxian was stunned on the spot.
He resisted the urge to soar into the sky with almost gall, and trembled as he hugged the wall beast tightly. Hearing the barking dogs getting closer and closer, he was filled with fear and involuntarily said in his heart: “Help, Lan Zhan, Lan Zhan, help!”
After reading it, I seemed to gain some courage from the name, and I shivered again to force myself to calm down.Wei Wuxian hoped and hoped that this dog would be an ownerless wild dog and get away quickly. Unexpectedly, God was not kind to him. A clear young voice sounded from the barking of the dog, saying: “Fairy, shut up! Do you want to wake up the whole street in the middle of the night?!”
Jin Ling!
Lan Xichen looked stern.Most of the monks from the Lanling Jin Sect could hear the young master Jin Ling’s voice. They winked at each other and strung their bows.Jin Ling’s voice came very quickly, and soon he came to the gate of Guanyin Temple and said: “Hush! Hush! Ask me to stew you again! … Where are you taking me?”
Wei Wuxian’s heart was soaring with fear: “Jin Ling, you wretched child, why don’t you leave quickly!!!”
But Jin Ling stopped outside the Guanyin Temple. The fairy was howling and seemed to be running around on the ground, digging at the earth and walls.Jin Ling asked curiously: “Is this here?”
After a moment of silence, he knocked on the door and said, “Is anyone there?”
In the courtyard, all the monks were holding their breath and concentrating, with arrows on their strings, pointing in the direction of the door and holding back, as if waiting for instructions.Lan Xichen whispered: “Don’t hurt him!”
His voice could not reach the boundary of Guanyin Temple, and other people did not relax their vigilance or put down their bows and arrows.Jin Ling seemed to have noticed something was wrong. Even if there was no night watchman in the temple, he had just banged on the door so loudly that it would have woken up even those who were sleeping. There should not have been any movement at all.So, he outside the door stopped talking.Before Wei Wuxian could relax, suddenly, another wave of barking came from outside the wall, and Jin Ling said angrily: “Hey, why are you running back again?!”
Wei Wuxian was overjoyed: “What a fairy!!!”
Jin Ling said: “Fairy! Come back! Damn it!”
Wei Wuxian thought to himself, “Little Ancestor, hurry up and leave with it!!! Please!!!”
Unexpectedly, a moment later, there was an undetectable sound of falling gray stone.Before Wei Wuxian could figure out what the movement was, he suddenly broke into a cold sweat and said, “Oh no, this guy is climbing the wall!”
Over there, as soon as Jin Ling came up, he saw bows and arrows all over the yard pointing at him, and his pupils shrank suddenly.And a monk, who had probably never seen Jin Ling before, or was determined to silence all intruders, let go of his arrow and flew out in Jin Ling’s direction!
Hearing the sharp sound of breaking the wind, Wei Wuxian knew that the archer was a master. If Jin Ling was hit by this arrow, his chest would be penetrated to the bone.he There was only one thing at hand that could be blocked immediately. In desperation, Wei Wuxian jumped up to the wall, threw his hand, and shouted at the same time: “Jin Ling, run!”
What he threw out was the bamboo flute that he had kept with him since his rebirth. The menacing flying arrow was blocked by it and missed the direction. The bamboo flute also fell into pieces.Jin Ling’s figure disappeared on the wall, he must have run away.But now Wei Wuxian’s hiding place was exposed. Hundreds of feather arrows flew in like a rainstorm, and shot the eaves beast that Wei Wuxian used to hide himself into a hedgehog. Wei Wuxian thought it was dangerous. None of these people had bad archery skills, and their cultivation was certainly not bad. Whether Jin Ling could escape successfully was still a question.He jumped off the wall, made a circle with his fingers and was about to blow the whistle, when a voice suddenly sounded behind him and said with a smile: “I advise Mr. Wei not to do it. It’s okay if the flute is cracked, but it would be sad if the fingers or tongue are gone.”
Wei Wuxian immediately stopped and agreed, “What you said makes sense.”
The man said, “Please?”
Wei Wuxian nodded and said, “Sect Master Jin, you’re welcome.”
Jin Guangyao smiled and said, “It should be.”
As if nothing had happened, they made a big detour and walked to the Guanyin Temple. Wei Wuxian was speechless for a while.
The gate of Guanyin Temple had been opened, and Jin Ling did not escape as expected. He was pointed at by several monks with swords. He looked at them, hesitated for a moment, and called out: “Uncle.”
Jin Guangyao said, “Hello, Aling.”
