To the west of Jinmen, Tianhou Palace.

This place was originally the territory of the Taoists, so it could not stand up to the people of Jinmen who were practicing martial arts, and few people were interested in praying to gods or worshiping Buddha.

Coupled with the strong power of local sects and gangs, people from across the mountain would come looking for trouble. The Taoist priests who couldn't bear the trouble could only pack up their belongings and flee, leaving a half-widow old man to guard the door.

Logically speaking, the area where Thean Hou Temple is located is close to the pier and is a geomantic treasure that cannot be bypassed by anyone traveling from north to south. It should be a hot spot coveted by all forces.

Either turn it into a prostitution house or a casino. No matter what the business is, it is not difficult to make money every day.

But for some reason, none of the parties on the ground in Jinmen had any intention of taking advantage of the situation after driving away the Taoist priests from Tianhou Palace.

Some people say that it is because the ancestral home of Taoism, Wudang Mountain, still has a reputation, and the officials in Jinmen are not willing to make things too ugly, lest they completely anger Wudang and make themselves unable to step down.

You must know that there was internal strife in Taoism at that time. Longhu Mountain gathered a group of people from all over the mountain, determined to compete with Wudang. As a result, Wudang Mountain single-handedly defeated him and killed him all the way from the foot of the mountain to the Tianshi Mansion. Not to mention humans, not even the clay statues of gods escaped being beheaded.

After this battle, Wudang completely secured its top position in Taoism, and there were no more heavenly masters from Longhu Mountain in the world.

However, some people say that this Tianhou Palace has long been favored by Mr. Zou of Tianque, but he has never made time to take possession of it. However, the news has been released a long time ago. If anyone dares to take the idea of ​​Tianque Palace, it will be with Tianque. make life difficult for.

There are different opinions and no consensus.

But no matter what the real reason is, Thean Hou Palace has become a blessing in disguise since it withdrew from the disputes in the world.

Many workers who rely on the water and beg for food at the dock like to come here to offer a stick of incense before starting work, not because they are religious, but just to feel comfortable.

Of course, there are also many unscrupulous little gangsters who have learned a few tricks and are proficient in bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. They gather here. Relying on the strong popularity here, they specially find some new faces to start with and squeeze out some money to squander.

Today coincides with the Queen of Heaven's birthday. Not only is the temple crowded and lively, but a group of rogues with dragon and tiger tattoos have also gathered under the old wall across the street.

Although he is thin and has a sluggish look, his arrogant and domineering arrogance is terrifying. They bared their teeth and raised their eyes. If anyone dared to look at them, they would immediately take action.

It was still early in the morning, and the ceremony at Thean Hou Temple had not yet started. Most of the people who came to burn incense at this time were locals, so it was not easy to start.

The idle and bored gangsters gathered in a group, and no one knew who had made a fortune, so they actually scattered a circle of barbarian cigarettes that many people had never seen before. Everyone puffed out sparks in their mouths while lamenting that although these barbarians It smells bad, but some of the gadgets are pretty good. They were discussing the recent major events in Jinmen with excitement.

"Brothers, have you heard about it? A lot of people have died in Jinmen recently."

Suddenly someone lowered his voice and started talking, and the mystery on his face immediately attracted the attention of the people around him.

"What did you hear? Who died?"

The ignorant person who spoke immediately attracted a look of disgust.

In their line of work, they can be tough, but they can't be uninformed.

The former is worse, the worst thing is to be hungry. If the latter can't be carried clearly, it may take your life at some point.

"You want to say Tianque, right?"

Someone heard what Xian meant and took over the conversation.

"No, but it's really rare. How many years have we not seen such a ferocious dragon crossing the river? It's incredible that it can fight Tianque back and forth."

"What's unbelievable about this? The Dong Huanghui group is not a good person. I heard that they are a well-known killer organization in the criminal area. They are all highly skilled in martial arts. Many high-ranking figures have died there. into their hands.”

"What big shot can be as big as our Mr. Zou? Tianque is the only big gang in Jinmen, with many brothers under his command. What kind of dragon across the river can make trouble in front of Tianque? Let me tell you, it means that Mr. Zou will show mercy, otherwise it would have been long ago Just wipe out that Donghuang Society."

The person who spoke was clearly a die-hard loyalist of Tianque, and his admiration for Tianque was revealed both in and out of his words.

"If I ever have the opportunity to join Tianque, it will be like smoke coming out of the ancestral graves. I will burn two more bitches for my damn old man so that he can have a good time."

Someone asked curiously: "I remember, didn't your father commit suicide just because he couldn't handle that thing? Why, can you stand up after going down?"

"Go away, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll fall out with you!"

"Don't talk nonsense. If you ask me, Tianque may not be able to pass this level so easily."

In the chaos, someone said in a deep voice: "You don't think Tianque is powerful, but no matter how many swords and guns you have, if you can't find traces of your opponent, it will be in vain. Otherwise, how could so many people die in Tianque during this period? Rumor has it that even Meng Chong and Ao Hu from Master Zou’s Minggui Hall were almost killed!”

"This is not a rumor. The Xin'an warehouse outside the city was burned down not long ago. Have you all heard about it? Let me tell you, I was at the scene at that time and saw with my own eyes that Meng Chong was opened by a woman. , even Aohu was chopped into a bloody man!"

A gasping hissing sound suddenly sounded under the mottled old wall.

"But Tianque is not someone to be trifled with. He stabbed that woman to death on the spot. Before she died, I heard the woman yelling something. It seemed like she was incompetent and failed to avenge her husband. ”

"What about that woman? She has a name, Tian Yue, and her nickname is 'Mr. Nightmare'. Her man was also killed by Tian Que, and his name is 'Jun Jun' Lu Hu."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this and looked at the man who interrupted.

The man was originally standing on the outermost edge, and no one paid attention to him. Now his words were shocking, and the idle man standing in front of him immediately got out of the way.

"You even know these secrets so clearly. Brother, you are not a mortal. Who do you think you are?"

No matter what kind of circle it is, as long as it is mixed with people, there will be a leader.

In the center of the crowd, a man with the burliest stature and bulging muscles in his arms looked at him warily.

The man who just spoke was not strong, but he did not look weak. There was a strange-looking mask hanging around his waist, which made his whole person look evil.

I saw him smile modestly: "I'm Zhao Yin. I'm not a big shot. I just have someone in the family doing some chores in the Yamen, and I happened to hear more news. When I first arrived in this treasure land, I didn't have anything to show filial piety to you. I could only take some worthless things. I’ll leave the gossip to everyone, I hope you guys will take care of me in the future.”

"It's easy to talk about. We are all degenerate people in the world. We all make a living based on our ability. There is no question of taking care of us or not."

When strangers joined in, the originally lively atmosphere suddenly became deserted.

Some of the cautious ones immediately shut their mouths, fearing that something might accidentally come out of their mouths and cause unnecessary trouble for themselves.

There are also people who are careless and don't care about the other person's origins. They curiously ask: "Brother, is your news true or false?"

"Everyone is dead, so my relative shouldn't lie to me. Although the Donghuang Society is a group of killers, they travel around the world just for fame and fortune. Once your reputation is known, your business will be better in the future, don't you think so? ?”

"Brother, I have seen clearly that fighting and killing in this world is ultimately about seeking fame and fortune. Otherwise, who would naturally like to tie their head to their belt? I don't know what the conflict between Tianque and Donghuanghui is. The time will end."

Someone said with emotion: "According to me, it's best to shake hands and make peace. Only by being friendly can you make money. The world is peaceful, so we don't have to worry about it."

"How is it possible to make peace? We don't know what kind of temper Mr. Zou of Tianque has. How can he be able to swallow such a breath? And now both parties have seen blood and died. This matter is not a matter of wealth. 'Words can solve it.'

Someone retorted on the spot: "If Tianque doesn't peel off the skin and cramps of this dragon crossing the river, then their life in Jinmen will not be peaceful in the future."

"The Donghuang Society will definitely be uprooted!"

The man who had been sparing no effort in praising Tianque just now shouted loudly: "Just wait and see, it won't be long before Master Zou will arrest the Donghuanghui people one by one, sell the women, and castrate the men!"

Zhao Yin narrowed his eyes and asked: "This brother is so confident, does he have some exclusive inside information?"

"Tianque is the number one in our Jinmen. Do you think anyone can provoke him?"

The man looked unreasonable and rough, and he changed the subject: "But if you want to tell me the inside story, I do know some things."

"Okay, whoever wins or loses is a matter of heaven and has nothing to do with us people on earth."

The leading man frowned and suddenly interrupted the other party sharply.

"The Queen's Day event is about to start. Everyone, stop gathering here and talk nonsense. Think about where to find food."

The man waved his hands to disperse the crowd and cupped his hands towards Zhao Yin.

"Brother Zhao, we are all low-class people who pick up leftovers on the street. We don't have so many ways and rules. If you have any favorites, just go ahead and do it. Everyone, just say goodbye. See you later.”

"I interrupted you abruptly. I'll see you later."

Zhao Yin naturally could see that the other party was quite wary of him, and smiled in a gentle tone.

Seeing that he didn't bother too much, the man secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but just as he turned around, a cold light suddenly burst out and pierced the back of his neck.

呲.

Not only him, but everyone around him who was about to disperse was stunned.

Thin threads as thin as hair were inserted into their necks, and another section was wrapped around the five fingers of Zhao Yin's right hand.

Qimen martial arts, string pulling theater.

Zhao Yin moved his fingers, the crowd gathered again, and the old and dilapidated courtyard wall became lively again.

Just at this moment, a car drove from a distance and stopped in front of Thean Hou Temple.

Before the car stopped, two figures grabbed out of the car, circled around the back of the car, and guarded the left and right sides of the rear door.

"Mengchong. Aohu"

Zhao Yin, who was surrounded by a group of idle men, had a panoramic view of everything and whispered to himself.

At this moment, a handsome man with long hair shawl stepped out of the car.

"Shen Li."

Shen Li bowed and opened the car door, and the figure who came out was obviously wearing a long gown, but had a shiny back hair. It was a sunny day, but he was holding a black umbrella. There was clearly a smile on the corner of his mouth, but there was a majesty that made people dare not look directly at him.

"Zou Sijiu is here too. Today is indeed a good day. There are fat sheep everywhere."

Zou Sijiu walked into Tianhou Palace first, followed closely by Meng Chong and Ao Hu.

Shen Li, who was at the back, looked across the street, looking at the gang of hooligans who were waiting for their turn.

"We are not open today, get out of here."

Shen Li waved his hand, and the crowd dispersed immediately. Zhao Yin also left with fear on his face.

After these annoying rubbish disappeared completely from his sight, Shen Li turned around and entered the temple with a restless look.

There are many kinds of peonies planted in the Tianhou Palace, and the flowering period is in full swing at this time.

The two varieties of Guanshi Moyu and Zipi are competing for beauty, but it is already late May, and the Zipi peony, which blooms later, has already begun to catch up.

In another half a month, the entire Tianhou Palace will surely be a spectacular scene of "Only peonies are truly national colors, and the flowers bloom and move the capital."

After entering the temple gate, Zou Sijiu did not rush to burn incense in front of the Tianhou, but wandered around the temple to enjoy the scenery.

"Master Zou, we didn't find any suspicious targets." Meng Chong, who was following behind, said softly. "Don't worry, the people who should come will come, but it's a pity that there are so many flowers and plants. I don't know how many will be left after today." Zou Sijiu replied nonchalantly, leaned over a blooming peony and took a deep sniff, then walked to the door of the main hall with satisfaction. The beams in the hall were hung with dense tower incense, and it was crowded with people worshiping. The incense was so strong that people couldn't see the Queen of Heaven sitting on the altar. Zou Sijiu didn't seem to be interested in entering the door and pushing people, and stopped under the flying eaves of the main hall. "Master Zou, if people like us want to burn incense, shouldn't we go to worship Guandi? Why come to the Temple of the Queen of Heaven?" Ao Hu spoke in a muffled voice, still full of energy, not at all like the rumors that he was almost hacked to death. "I had a dream yesterday. I dreamed that our world is actually a dream."

Zou Sijiu's words were really incoherent. Even Meng Chong, the smartest of the three, was confused, not to mention Shen Li and Ao Hu.

"Master Zou, what do you mean?"

"Don't worry about what it means. It's just that I met this queen in the dream, and I have to call her sister. My sister told me that the immortal fighting with her was very powerful. She couldn't stand it anymore, so I asked me to kill the people from the Donghuang Society as soon as possible, otherwise there would be big trouble."

Shen Li looked disapproving: "Master Zou, have you been under too much pressure recently, so you have these weird dreams? How about I find someone to relieve your anger behind my sister-in-law's back?"

"Don't talk nonsense to me. If you want to die, don't drag me. I have quit long ago."

Zou Sijiu looked at the gods in the incense and clasped his hands.

"Whether it is a dream or a prophecy, we have to say hello to the host first when we kill someone on someone else's territory this time. Follow me and pay our respects."

"Yes."

Zou Sijiu was in front, and the other three followed side by side. They clasped their fists in a martial arts manner and paid their respects to the gods from afar.

The moment the ceremony was over, the sky outside the eaves inexplicably darkened.

The heavy rain came without warning, and it was so fierce that screams suddenly rose in the temple.

A fortune-teller who was feeling the bones of a pretty girl at a fortune-telling stall in the square in front of the temple had a changed face.

He didn't care about taking advantage anymore, and suddenly jumped up from his seat, hurriedly picking up the things on the stall, and finished the words of interpretation in one breath, saying that this sudden change was a warning from heaven, and if he wanted to avoid disaster, he had to lose money.

But he kept talking for a long time, but there was no movement in front of him. He looked up and found that the girl had already run away without a trace.

"Hey, hey, you need to pay, pay!"

The fortune teller covered his head with his hands, jumping and cursing on the spot.

"You dare to cheat even the money for fortune telling, how vicious people are, be careful that the gods will come down to earth to take your life!"

Many people who came to the temple to avoid the rain also poured into the front door, including the hooligans who were waiting to catch single robbers on the opposite street.

They huddled in the corner, not daring to look at Shen Li under the eaves.

"This rain came suddenly, it's really evil. Fortunately, I brought an umbrella this time."

Shen Li smiled and looked at the dark sky in the distance.

"There are gods above your head, you are so outspoken, aren't you afraid that God will directly strike you to death with a thunder?"

The voice that sounded was full of teasing.

Zou Sijiu turned his head and saw a man in his fifties standing two meters away. He had obvious white hair on his temples, sharp eyebrows and a high nose. His eyes were particularly strange, like a deep well leading to the abyss. After a short look, Zou Sijiu felt a sense of suffocation.

"What is your name?"

Zou Sijiu raised his hand to stop Shen Li and others who were about to step forward, and asked with a smile.

"Donghuang Society, Zhai Chong."

"So you are the 'Shangguan', no wonder your eyes are so strange, I guess this is the martial arts called 'Pai Yan Tian Fang', it's really amazing!"

Zou Sijiu looked enlightened: "Why, you Donghuang Society are not going to use tricks this time, but are going to use force? Or are even your gods anxious?"

"Now the gods are fighting, and they can't spare the time to pay attention to what we are doing. Zou Sijiu, if you wake up from your dream, then why don't you say something..."

Zhai Chong smiled slightly: "Tell the truth."
