This seat is a villain

The demon energy in the Lotus Breath Hall was extremely strong, and it poured towards Xue Yao like a mountain torrent.

Xue Yao ignored the overwhelming demonic energy, stood in the hall, raised his head and looked carefully at the seven statues in front of him.

These seven god statues are carved lifelike and extremely beautiful.The statue lowered its eyebrows and stared at the man standing in the center of the altar, as if the stones were filled with a compassionate heart.

Xue Yao sneered, thinking: What a bunch of hypocritical jade-faced Shuras.

Although the seven god statues seemed merciful, the evil energy in the Lotus Breath Hall was so strong that it almost broke through the roof. Of course, Xue Yao didn't think that the few god statues standing in this pickled place would be anything good.

Xue Yao has never been in awe of ghosts and gods, so he inspected each statue in turn without fear.These statues are carved from a whole block of stone, and both the collection and transportation of the stones and the carving of the statues are extremely laborious.Apart from the fact that Jiutianmen was indeed rich, he didn't find anything special about it.

What stands in front of him is nothing but a row of dead objects. I don't know where this soaring devilish energy comes from.

Xue Yao put aside a few statues for the time being, and turned to investigate carefully in the Lotus Breathing Hall.It turns out that the interior of the Lotus Breathing Hall is much larger than it looks from the outside, and the whole building is built in the mountain of Jialou Mountain.A building in the forbidden area that can accommodate tens of thousands of people, and enshrines a demonic statue, Xue Yao guessed that the Lotus Breath Hall should be the altar where the Jiutianmen held a great sacrifice every 15 years.

Xue Yao walked back to the statue, looked up at the stone-carved eyes, and sneered inwardly.It turns out that Jiutianmen has been rampant for hundreds of years for these few ghosts who are neither gods nor Buddhas to harm the world.

What can drive a cultivator into a frenzy is nothing more than improving one's cultivation base and making one's way up.Those who cultivate the Tao claim to be detached from ordinary people and regard people as ants.Who knows that I have long been trapped in this square inch.

What about Lin Jinhuan, is he going to embark on this road of attainment and longevity paved with blood?

Considering that Jinyi will return to Wuliangquan at any time, Xue Yao feels that it is not suitable for him to stay here for a long time.In the end, he took some time to memorize all the structures of the altar in his mind, then turned and walked out the door.

The effect of the Xisui Pill was about to wear off, Xue Yao felt a little vain at the moment.

Seeing that Xue Yao had already intended to leave, a small wave of devilish energy that was just around him suddenly became agitated.The invisible and invisible magic energy transformed into a dark purple entity in the air, quietly wrapped around Xue Yao's ankles, and dragged him to the depths of the altar with the force of wind and thunder.

This attack was caught off guard, and Xue Yao fell to the ground defenselessly, and was about to be dragged to nowhere by the magical energy.

How could Xue Yao let him get what he wanted, he pulled out the Shaoxiu sword on his back so violently, he threw the sword into the ground so violently, and firmly grasped the hilt with both hands, only then could he barely stop the momentum of going backwards.

Even so, the demonic energy didn't show any sign of backing down, and the two sides were faintly confronting each other.

Xue Yao helped Shaoxiu to sit up with difficulty, and he used all his strength to stabilize his figure.Seeing that Xue Yao seemed to be exhausted, the devilish energy on his ankle continued to drag him towards the Lianxi Hall while spreading up his legs.

As the devilish energy continued to entangle him, Xue Yao felt many strong strange emotions emerge in his heart, cruel and greedy, rage was mixed with depression, and there was a great sadness running through it.It took a while for Xue Yao to realize that this was not his own inner feelings, but came from this devilish energy.Xue Yao noticed that this demonic energy seemed to have a strong desire to possess him, and it twisted into a cold poisonous snake, tightly twisting his heart, trying to lead him to sink together.

In the forced empathy, Xue Yao saw the most unbearable evil thoughts in the world, and also felt the most desperate paranoia.Perhaps under the influence of this devilish energy, his iron heart also fell into inexplicable sadness.

What the hell is this.Xue Yao bit the tip of his tongue, forcing himself to break away from the emotion created by the demonic energy, and the purple magical energy that had transformed into a solid body had climbed up to its waist.Xue Yao immediately pulled out Shaoxiu's sword stuck in the ground, and swung the sword towards the purple qi wrapped around his feet.

Shaoxiu Ben Feifei Tie, Xue Yao took the Xisui Pill again, and all the zhenqi that should not be moved rashly gathered on the sword at this moment.This sword was extraordinary, the moment the sword light lit up, the devilish energy under the sword instantly loosened, and the shackles on Xue Yao scattered, and became invisible again.

Xue Yao took this opportunity to rush out of the hall.

The moment before going out, Xue Yao turned his head and saw the demonic energy that had been chopped off just now condensed into a solid body in mid-air.It didn't chase after it, but drifted steadily in the Lotus Breath Hall, like a cloud.

Lin Jinhuan's inner palace suddenly throbbed for a moment, as if he had been stabbed suddenly.

The old monk in front of him was sitting cross-legged on the futon, exuding a decaying aura of dying.He half-closed his eyes and said to Lin Jinhuan: "Benefactor Lin, you have distracting thoughts. Take this "Avatamsaka Sutra" back home and copy it again."

Lin Jinhuan suppressed the discomfort in his body and said with a smile, "Why? This can all be seen from the scriptures I copied."

"That's natural. Bodhi is the original mind, and the mind is false." After saying this, the old monk stopped talking to Lin Jinhuan and began to recite the scriptures by himself.

Lin Jinhuan came out of the meditation room with the scriptures returned by the old monk.He knew in his heart that what the old monk said was true, and he really moved his mind again.Lin Jinhuan got up this morning and heard the little monk ringing the bell, inexplicably remembering that today is the day when Xue Yao went to Wuliangquan again.Recently, autumn has become more and more intense, and the weather has gradually cooled down. The water in the Wuliang Spring is extremely cold all the year round. I don't know if he can bear it.

Thinking of this, Lin Jinhuan shook his head helplessly. He felt that all the scriptures he had copied these days were for nothing.

Lin Jinhuan didn't go too far in the past two months. After leaving Jiutianmen, he came to live in a small monastery near Jialou Mountain. He listened to Zen and copied scriptures with the old monks in the monastery every day.Occasionally help the young monks to do some sweeping work.

On the first day, Lin Jinhuan went to the foot of the mountain and looked up at the ten thousand stone steps in front of him.This time he didn't use any exercises, and walked up step by step with only his legs.

When knocking on the mountain gate, the host stood inside and asked him why he came.

Lin Jinhuan said that he wanted to get rid of emptiness and subdue his heart.

The host slowly turned the Buddhist beads in his hand, shook his head, and said calmly: Donor, you don’t know your original mind, learning the Dharma is useless, and the poor monk can’t do anything.

Lin Jinhuan pretended not to understand the host's polite refusal, and stayed in the temple with a shameless face.Fortunately, Lin Jinhuan was good-looking, good-natured, and diligent in doing things. These days, he got along very well with everyone in the temple, so the old monk just turned a blind eye to him and let him live in the temple.

"Benefactor Lin, do you want to become a monk too?" A young novice asked while leaning on his shoulder. "I can plead with Master for you."

It is said that the little novice was the son of a wealthy businessman. He was hijacked by bandits and almost died when he was young. Fortunately, he was saved by a passing abbot.In order to appreciate the kindness of the host, the wealthy businessman asked the little devil to practice Buddhism with the host.

"It's a good idea, who wants to come to your small place to be a monk." Lin Jinhuan turned over the scriptures on the stone one by one, reached out and patted the little novice's buttocks, and said: "I'm dead, come down quickly. "

"Master said that your Buddha's heart is evil. If you don't do great good, you will definitely do great evil." The little novice climbed down from Lin Jinhuan and sat beside him, and said solemnly: "You should take refuge in my Buddha as soon as possible, so as not to cause great disaster."

"Monks can't lie like this, can't I be an ordinary person?" Lin Jinhuan randomly selected a scripture from the neatly dried scriptures, and sat down on the porch to read it.

Seeing that Lin Jinhuan didn't have a heart for strange Buddhism, the little novice didn't give up, and continued to chatter in Lin Jinhuan's ear.

This time Lin Jinhuan went down the mountain alone not only because of Xue Yao.With the awakening of the power of the seven evil spirits, Lin Jinhuan deeply realized the horror of this power.It was deeply rooted in his heart, constantly giving birth to all kinds of delusions, like an insatiable monster.Once these delusions are satisfied, he will want more and more until he is dragged into the abyss step by step.

He had no choice but to stay in prison and completely guard the beast.

After the little novice left, Lin Jinhuan closed the scriptures in his hands and looked up at the direction of Mount Jialou in a daze.Although this place is at the foot of Jialou Mountain, due to the formation, he can't see anything except the mountains.

The days of self-defeating his emotions and desires were a bit difficult, but he soon felt relieved.He has been a spectator in this world of mortals for more than 20 years, and he has nothing at all.

When Jinyi returned to Wuliangquan, she saw Xue Yao lying on her back in the water, as if she had passed out.His long hair was scattered in the water, his hair was extremely black, and his complexion was extremely white, which was particularly shocking in the ice and snow.

Jin Yi's heart skipped a beat, and she hurried towards Xue Yao.

"Wake up." Jin Yi came to the pool and patted Xue Yao's cheek nervously.But Xue Yao in the water still had his eyes closed and didn't respond.

It's over, Lin Jinhuan can kill me.Jin Yi thought wildly, and quickly gathered a touch of true energy in her hands and condensed it on her fingertips.With a flick of her finger, her true energy sank into Xue Yao's heavenly inspiration with a "whoosh".

Xue Yao frowned instantly, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and then faintly woke up.

"Brother, you really scared me to death." Jin Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief seeing Xue Yao woke up.

Xue Yao just woke up and blinked in confusion.When he heard Jin Yi's words, he couldn't help laughing and said: "I'm nervous, I just fell asleep."

While packing up the medicine box, Jin Yi turned her head and gouged out Xue Yao's eyes fiercely, and said to him, "I suggest you look at your face before speaking."

Xue Yao smiled weakly, and supported the stone wall with his hands to get up.The severe pain in his body at the moment of exerting force made him completely awake. Xue Yao suddenly remembered why Jin Yi left halfway, so he asked quickly: "What's wrong with the heavy snow?"

As soon as Jin Yi heard the word "Chongxue", she felt a lot of bitterness in her stomach. She complained to Xue Yao: "I don't know where you picked up the little girl. I cried all the way, and my forehead hurts from crying. "Jin Yi said helplessly: "She got lost on Zuowang Cliff, and then she fell down somehow. Fortunately, she landed on a gap. It was really easy for me to find for a while."

Xue Yao felt a little surprised when he heard that Chongxue was injured, and asked, "Is she okay?"

Jin Yi said: "I just suffered a little skin trauma, it has been treated and sent back to Qingxintang."

"Thank you." Xue Yao said sincerely to Jin Yi.

Jin Yi and Xue Yao walked out of Wuliangquan together.As soon as the two of them crossed the stone bridge in the forbidden area, Jin Yi received a summons from Lin Chao. Hearing that something serious happened at the door, she left Xue Yao and went to Liuxiang Palace first.

Xue Yao silently endured the backlash of internal force after the effect of the Xisui Pill, and walked slowly to Qingxin Hall alone, walking in the garden and brushing the willows, looking very comfortable.

Xue Yao didn't expect to meet an unexpected person on the road.

"Zhaobi?" Xue Yao let go of the hand holding the woman's life gate in front of him, and took a step back.

"Young Master Xue! It's really you!" Shen Zhaobi couldn't care about the sore wrist pinched by Xue Yao, she turned to look at Xue Yao and said in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Shen Zhaobi is an oiran lady who has been in the limelight by the Qinhuai River in recent years.She was born graceful and graceful, but today she wore a primrose-colored palace dress, which made her look even more magnificent.

Not long after Xue Yao separated from Jin Yi, he noticed that someone was following him. He used some tricks to lure out this hidden person, but he didn't expect that the person who came was Shen Zhaobi.

Five years ago, the Privy Council had tracked down the altar master of Jiutianmen, who was known as the "death killer".The altar master had committed many crimes in the capital, and he fled to Jinling with the order of arrest.This "killer" was chased and beaten by the Privy Council on the way from the capital to Jinling. It was already at the end of his battle, but he completely disappeared after entering the Chaochaolou.Afterwards, Xue Yao personally took people to Chaochaolou for unannounced visits, but still found nothing.

The "killer" disappeared after entering Chaochaolou, but Xue Yao accidentally found Shen Zhaobi in Chaochaolou.

The first time Xue Yao got involved in party struggles when he was young was when he followed Zhao Jingming and witnessed the conspiracy of Shen Duo, the Shangshu of the household department, which was planned by his mentor.Shen Duo, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, had a family of 130 and six members. The men were beheaded, and the women were deprived of official positions.

At that time, the military power struggle between the Privy Council and Zhongshuling was in full swing. As Zhongshuling's confidant, Shen Duo became the victim of the first shot of this political struggle.Xue Yao still remembered that Shen Duo, who was like a bereaved dog, lost his mind and knelt at the feet of Xue Yao, who was still half a boy, with disheveled hair, begging him to let his little daughter go.

The little girl was only a few years old, and she was tightly protected by the nurse in her arms.She didn't know what happened, she just looked at herself with a pair of big eyes innocently.

Today's Xue Yao will no longer be touched by such eyes.But that was his first lesson in the bloody court. Like a young wolf, he was trying to learn how to slit the throat of his prey, with a little naive reluctance.

The little girl who was still walking unsteadily was dragged down by the officers and soldiers in front of him. Before she was taken away, she looked back at her father frequently.This scene remained in Xue Yao's mind until he met Shen Zhaobi in Chaochaolou many years later.

Perhaps this little girl took away the last bit of youthful innocence of Privy Shaoshi, and she left an indelible mark in Xue Yao's memory.After reuniting with Shen Zhaobi again, Xue Yao protected her all the way as a benefactor.Xue Yao wanted to redeem Shen Zhaobi more than once, but Shen Zhaobi politely refused.After Shen Zhaobi rejected Xue Yao's offer of redemption for the last time, Xue Yao spent a lot of money to promote her to the position of oiran.

People are still talking about the grand occasion of the oiran election night.I have never seen someone spend so much money for Bo Hongyan Smile.Xue Yao's original intention was very simple, he just hoped that Shen Zhaobi would be less involuntary in this world of mortals.

Does this little novice look familiar to everyone?
