C53 Someone Came in the Middle of the Night!
People in the middle of the night!
Jiang Ling, Zhan Muxue, and Situ Qing walked around the Three River Town. Finally, they slowly went up north and walked toward the dilapidated Taoist temple according to the directions described in the blueprint.
It was already dark. The sunset in the distance was about to disappear. Jiang Ling and the others had to arrive there before that.
They walked along a winding dirt road in the forest of ancient trees and wolves, which led to a secluded valley.
At the end of the mountain road, there were some very dilapidated Taoist temple buildings. The plaque hanging on the door was slanted. The golden paint on it was mottled by the wind and rain, and no words could be seen.
"Ci... Hang?"
Before they entered the Taoist temple, they saw a broken stone tablet standing in front of them, and these two words were vaguely engraved on it.
"It looks like the old address of a certain sect." Jiang Ling waved his sleeve and led the two girls into the Daoist temple.
The area of the temple wasn't large. Currently, only the main hall and the left side hall were still there. The right side hall had already been destroyed.
Jiang Ling walked straight into the main hall in the center. As soon as he crossed the threshold, he saw an unknown statue of a god standing in the middle. Even after so many years of weathering, it was still very powerful.
Jiang Ling bowed to the divine statue. Then, he picked up a hassock on the ground and used a "cleaning talisman." The hassock swept away the dust in an instant and became brand new, as if it had never been used before.
He took out a few "cleaning talismans" and gave them to Zhan Muxue and the rest. Situ Qing took the talisman and said with a smile, "Master, you are a person who can seize heaven's fortune. Do you still need to pray to the gods?"
When Jiang Ling heard this, he only gave a faint smile, "Entering the temple to pray to the gods is a rule. It is not to pray for anything but to tell him to borrow the treasure land for a use."
"Then what if he does not agree?" After Situ Qing finished preparing the praying mat, she sat down and casually said.
Jiang Ling's expression was indifferent. He cast a sidelong glance at the divine statue, "It's better for him to agree."
Zhan Muxue who was at the side was busy cleaning up the mess around the three of them. When she heard these words, her heart slightly trembled. The strength of the Ancestor was indeed as unfathomable as the abyss. Even when facing a God, he did not have any fear.
She simply tidied up the surroundings before sitting beside Jiang Ling.
This unknown Daoist temple was the place where demons roamed the most. The three of them didn't dare to lower their guard as they were wary of their surroundings.
Jiang Ling sat cross-legged in the middle with his eyes closed and a calm expression on his face. The two girls would occasionally look at his face, and then they would feel more at ease.
Gradually, the moon was hanging on the treetops, and the bright white moonlight covered the entire land.
A few sneaky figures quietly walked through the dense forest, and finally stopped outside the dilapidated Taoist temple.
"Are you sure this is where they rest?" a dull voice asked.
"Brother, I've been watching them all night. They haven't left!" Another sharp voice came from the forest.
After two sentences, there was no longer any sound coming from the forest. Only a few figures approached the Taoist temple under the moonlight.
Situ Qing, who was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the hall, suddenly opened her eyes!
"Master, you are here!"
Zhan Muxue's strength was slightly weaker than Situ Qing and she did not discover anything unusual but she still opened her eyes.
Among the three of them, only Jiang Ling still closed his eyes as if he did not notice.
Situ Qing and Zhan Muxue looked at each other and both understood what Jiang Ling meant.
This time, the main purpose of eliminating demons in Three River Town was to test the two of them. Usually, Jiang Ling would not make a move.
It was also at this time that a series of light footsteps came from outside the hall. Not long after, four burly figures stood outside the door and covered the moonlight.1
"Is it a person?" Situ Qing frowned, feeling a little disappointed in her heart.
She noticed some movement outside and thought that it was the appearance of the legendary demon. She did not expect that it was a few uninvited guests.
"Everyone, I am here late at night to visit. What brings you here?" Although these people who suddenly appeared did not understand the reason, Situ Qing did not have the slightest fear in her heart and boldly asked.
"Hehe, everyone gathered at the Daoist temple. This is fate. Especially to be able to share a room with the two fairies. Wouldn't that be beautiful?"
One of the four figures walked in first. Borrowing the hazy moonlight, one could vaguely see the face of this person.
This person was rather handsome. He had red phoenix eyes and sword-like eyebrows, but the mocking smile at the corners of his mouth made others feel that he had ill intentions.
"Everything has to be first come first. The three of us will come here first. Everyone, let's find another place." Situ Qing did not show any weakness as she said. Her eyes were fixed on that person as she was wary of his every move.
"Then the four of us have to stay with the two fairies." The other person spoke. His tone was mocking and sarcastic.
Jiang Ling opened his eyes slightly when he heard the disgusting words. He then looked around the four of them.
The shopkeeper had told him that there were a lot of people in Three River Town recently.
The meaning of his words was that there were all kinds of people in ___.
He was a young man with low strength, and he had two beautiful maids with him. It was very difficult for him not to attract the covetous eyes of others.
No matter how great his background was, who would be able to find out after killing and dumping corpses in this place?
Obviously, the three of them had been targeted by these four as soon as they entered the Three River Town. The traces of people in the surroundings of this dilapidated Daoist temple were rare, and it was simply a superb place to kill and rob.
"That will depend on your strength, whether you are strong enough or not." A cold light flashed across Situ Qing's eyes.
These four people were clearly coming for them.
"Why do you need to use blades and guns? This is too much of an injury and anger. Wouldn't it be a pity if you hurt the two of you?"
The first person to enter the hall burst out laughing.
"Then what do you mean?"
Situ Qing did not get angry when she heard this person's words. Instead, she smiled and said. However, her smile contained killing intent.
The man's eyes swept across Jiang Ling, who had his eyes closed the whole time. He sneered in his heart. Then he looked at Situ Qing and his eyes slightly turned. He revealed a touch of Y-Yin light, "As long as the two of you can play with the four of us and make us happy. I guarantee that the three of you will be safe tonight."
After he finished speaking, the other three revealed evil smiles on their faces. Those malicious eyes moved around Situ Qing and the other two, and flames of anger rose from the bottom of their hearts.
This person's words caused Situ Qing and Zhan Muxue's expressions to slightly change. A wave of disgust surged out from their hearts.
"I see that you guys really don't know what death is." Situ Qing sneered and waves of spirit energy fluctuations burst out from her delicate body.
Zhan Muxue also did the same. Her beautiful eyes stared at the four of them with extreme vigilance.
"Sigh, why are the two fairies so stubborn?"
Seeing Situ Qing and Zhan Muxue's actions, that person seemed to shake his head helplessly. "We, the Jade Faced Four Gentlemen, have always been very sympathetic towards the beauty. If your falling geese were to be injured in the slightest... I will feel heartache. "
