my God

Evening, mountain temple.

After the monks left, the temple door was locked.

A black crow suddenly appeared on the big mulberry tree in the yard.

The crow squatted on the tree and looked aimlessly into the distance, feeling really bored and began to comb its feathers again.

But after brushing its feathers, it still felt bored, so it flew down to the wooden platform and walked back and forth with calm steps.

In the end, it was so boring that it couldn't help cursing: "When will you come back? What's so interesting about breaking the law!"

At this time, it completely forgot how it spent the night before Song Yan went up the mountain and when Daoist Yang was not in the temple...

***

Song Yan and his master walked slowly around the mountain where the Fuxing Temple is located, but found no suspicious signs.

Could it be that those two people from Jade Emperor Pavilion really left?

impossible!If they received the news in the middle of the night to go back to the Yuhuang Pavilion, they would come back to pick up their luggage at that time; if they received the news in the morning, where did they go in the middle of the night?

Song Yan didn't want to doubt the Fuxing Temple, but he really didn't have a good impression of the Fuxing Temple.

After the two returned to the temple, they talked to Cui Yu and the others about the shift change while they were having dinner.

Cui Yu and Wang Yanjun dared to say no, after all, Daoist Yang was there, so they readily agreed.

But at night, when Song Yan and his master went to the back door, the patrolling disciples on duty refused to let them go.

"According to the duty schedule, Daoyou Wang and Daoyou Cui should be on duty tonight. Please come back and ask them to come over to be on duty!"

"Who is on duty is different?" Song Yan asked with a frown, "Can't we adjust it ourselves? Fellow Daoist Cui has an upset stomach!"

"If someone has a stomachache, they can go to Dianzhu Chen, and he can prove that the situation is true!" The inspector disciple still refused to let him go.

Song Yan was so angry that he said angrily, "What if we have to change shifts?"

The patrolling disciple glanced at him, then took out his phone and started calling: "Hey, Master, the people from the Mountain God Temple insist on changing shifts with the people from the Yaowang Temple, I can't stop them, they are about to force their way..."

Song Yan: "..."

Sure enough, rich and powerful!It turned out to be the latest mobile phone worth nearly [-] yuan!No, the mobile phone is not the point, the point is that they are so up-to-date with the times by phone!

At this time, Song Yan regretted not leaving a phone call or adding a WeChat message with the people in Yuhuangge, otherwise he would be able to know whether they had rushed back with just one call.

Soon, Daoist Gao came over with two disciples, and Cui Yu and Wang Yanjun came with them.

Daoist Gao clasped his fists at Daoist Yang and said, "Brother Daoist Yang, please forgive me! The reason why you have to be on the night shift on the eighth night of the eighth day of the lunar new year is because tomorrow is the day of the Fa Conference. If something goes wrong during the ceremony, you need to find someone Substitute, we are still pointing at you to send charcoal in a timely manner! If you are on the night shift tonight, it may affect your energy tomorrow morning, look..."

Gao Daochang's tone was very polite, and he didn't have the slightest airs. He obviously gave Yang Daochang enough face, making it difficult for Yang Daochang to say no for a while.

Just when Daoist Yang was hesitating, Wang Yanjun quickly said: "Daoist Yang, thank you for your understanding! We are both physically weak, but we have recovered after resting for two days. Let's be on duty tonight!"

Cui Yu also hurriedly said: "Tomorrow night, there will be Master Gao Gong's lecture class, and famous Taoist priests in China will come here. I want to go and see, so..."

Although Song Yan knew that the two of them had good intentions and gave him a step down as a teacher and apprentice, he still couldn't help sighing.

Daoist Yang smiled slightly, and said: "Pindao originally planned to participate in the seminar. Since Xiaoyou Cui also wants this opportunity, then I won't fight with you! Song Yan, let's go back!"

"Yes, master!" Song Yan immediately followed Daoist Yang back.

Seeing that their master and apprentice had gone far away, Daoist Gao signaled the disciples on duty to open the back door and let Cui Yu and Wang Yanjun go to the back mountain.

After the two of Yaowangmiao walked away, the disciple on duty re-locked the back door with a click.

At this moment, only Daoist Gao and three disciples were left in the backyard.

Seeing that he was the only one left, the disciple on duty couldn't help whispering: "Master, I think the relationship between the two groups is quite good. Will Daoist Yang and his disciples start a fight tomorrow morning?"

"Why make trouble? What did we do to them?" Daoist Gao replied coldly.

"Could it be...they will find evidence or something..." The disciples on duty always felt that Daoist Yang and his apprentice suddenly asked to change shifts, as if they had noticed something.

"So what if we find it? We didn't do it!" Another disciple replied on behalf of Master.

"That's right!" Disciple No.3 also opened his mouth, "Isn't there nothing we can do? Tomorrow is Luo Tian Dajiao. If you don't do this, you won't even think about holding this ceremony!"

"Okay, shut up!" Daoist Gao was also a little upset, although he said it was for righteousness, but he still felt guilty in his heart. "

"Yes!" Several disciples responded and turned to leave one after another.

"Wait a minute!" Daoist Gao grabbed one of them, "Don't forget to knock on the clapper in front of their house!"

"Don't worry, Master! Make sure they will sleep soundly! The other guests in the courtyard will be too!" The disciple smiled slyly, obviously not a novice.

Taoist Gao nodded and let the disciple go.He looked up at the night sky, and the first quarter moon had risen from the east, illuminating the earth with its clear brilliance.

I hope tomorrow's Dharma conference can go on as usual, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Fuxing Temple!

***

Song Yan folded his clothes and lay on the kang, swept the door with his spiritual sense, saw that no one was eavesdropping, and then whispered: "Master, when are we going to leave?"

"Wait a little longer." Yang Daochang lay down next to Song Yan in his clothes, his voice was calm.

"How long? If something happens, will it be too late?" Song Yan was a little worried.

"Firstly, there are still many people in the temple who have not fallen asleep; secondly, they are Taoist priests with some cultivation, and they are young and strong," Daoist Yang explained in a low voice in the dark, "If I It's a monster, let's strike when they are exhausted."

"If there are monsters that cannibalize people, then the Fuxing Temple is really a tiger and a wolf!" Song Yan has already gritted his molars, "Isn't the route they designed to patrol the mountain just to let the monsters take advantage of it?"

"Calm down first, we'll follow up later to see." Daoist Yang was very afraid that Song Yan would be prone to accidents if he was young and energetic.

At this time, the sound of approaching footsteps came from outside the door, and the master and apprentice immediately fell silent and kept quiet.

The footsteps stopped at the door for a while, and then the clapper sounded, and then the footsteps continued to go away.

"Didn't you knock on the clapper just now?" Song Yan couldn't help asking.

They ate at Youshi, and after the meal, the clapper sounded the next day, that is, after seven o'clock in the evening, the night patrol team was about to set off.

Although it is still Xu time, and it still belongs to the first watch, but there is no need to knock on the clapper once, otherwise, what is the difference from disturbing the people?

"Song Yan, do you suddenly feel sleepy?" Daoist Yang didn't answer him, but asked instead.

"What?" Song Yan replied with a sigh of relief, and then froze.

The master and apprentice looked at each other in the darkness.

"This clapper has a hypnotic effect?" Song Yan sat up immediately, and shook his head to wake himself up, "I said why I slept until dawn last night, and I originally planned to go out and have a look if those two came back late of!"

He blamed himself and felt guilty for this matter for a day, only now did he realize that it was not because of his snooze, but because someone had tampered with it.

"It should be a hypnotic charm engraved on the clapper." Daoist Yang also got up, trying to wake himself up.

"Xu Shi will be over in another quarter of an hour. Master, shouldn't we start? Otherwise, the clapper will ring again at the second watch!" Song Yan reminded.

"go!"

The two master and apprentice slipped out of the house quietly, and then walked towards the back door along the deserted place.They didn't go over the wall this time, just to take a look at the lock on the back door, but when they got there, it turned out that the lock was hanging on it.

What does it mean to lock the door as soon as the patrol team leaves?Don't want people to come back?Or do you know people won't come back?

The master and apprentice suddenly felt a chill in their hearts.

Song Yan held the door lock, gathered his true energy in his hand, and twisted it hard, instantly twisting the lock beam and the nose of the door into twists. Now there is no key to open it, unless the nose of the door is welded with water. Cut it off!

"Let's go!" Yang Daochang patted him on the shoulder, and turned out of the wall first.

Song Yan also followed closely behind. The master and apprentice did not follow the previous route, but ran in the opposite direction.

According to Cui Yu and Wang Yanjun's honest or obedient personalities, they will definitely walk along the prescribed route, so they will see them sooner if they run in the opposite direction.

When passing by the water source, the master and the apprentice smelled a faint smell of blood at the same time, but everything was normal at the edge of the pool.

Daoist Yang sniffed it carefully, then pointed upwards: "In the woods! Chase!"

The two immediately plunged into the woods, chasing after the smell of blood.

The moon was shining on the ground, and Song Yan could see clearly that besides dead branches and leaves, there were also dripping blood on the ground.

At this time, there was a faint sound of dragging and pulling from the front, which seemed to be very eager, and the dead branches were rattling.

Song Yan and Daoist Yang rushed away immediately, and saw a little girl dressed as a Taoist boy dragging Wang Yanjun's body back from a distance. is blood.

"Let him go!" Yang Daochang broke off a branch and threw it over.

Song Yan stepped a little harder and rushed towards the little girl.

Seeing this, the little girl quickly let go of Wang Yanjun, and after dodging the branches like flying swords to the side, she jumped back again, dodging Song Yan's flying feet.

After she stood still, she looked at Song Yan's master and apprentice with pity, and asked coldly, "Aren't they two a day?"

When the master and apprentice heard this, they were immediately chilled to the bone.

Sure enough, it was premeditated!
