Chapter 420 Night visit to the ancient temple
The ancient temple that Su Chen mentioned is a thousand-year-old temple located on Qingliang Mountain in the western suburbs of the capital. It is called Qingliang Temple. As for whether Qingliang Temple is first called Qingliang Mountain, or Qingliang Mountain is first, and the temples on the mountain are called Qingliang Temple. It is no longer verified. However, the incense here has always been very good. Although it is built in dense mountains and forests, the size of the temple is not very large. But people in the entire capital like to come here to burn incense and worship Buddha. Of course, the long history of the temple is one aspect. The most important thing is that there are many enlightened monks here.
Su Chen and Li Jingyan were galloping on the quiet capital avenue late at night. Although there were occasional officers and soldiers patrolling the night, with their standards, how could they discover these two masters in the world?
It was very relaxed that the two of them arrived near the city wall.
Here, you need to pay attention. Although with the skills of the two, you can easily fly across the city wall with your sword. After all, this is the outer guard of the capital. There are also some Qi training people among the defenders. Moreover, the light formed by the sword is also very conspicuous in this dark night.
Su Chen of course wanted to conduct his investigation quietly. After all, his opponent is the most powerful person in the world. Of course, he doesn't want to be discovered. This is also the reason why the two of them did not rely on Ling Yun Jiuyao's identity to go out directly from the city gate.
When he arrived under the city wall, Su Chen looked around and Li Jingyan felt something with her eyes closed.
"Here you come." Suddenly, Li Jingyan opened her eyes and shouted softly: "Prepare!"
Su Chen immediately stood there against the city wall.
It was a long time to say that, and that was soon. Just as Su Chen had just put on his pose, Li Jingyan jumped and jumped into the air.
However, this is the city wall of Jinling City. It is to prevent foreign enemies from invading and those thieves who can fly over the eaves and walls from appearing. The city wall is not as high as that. Moreover, in order to prevent the defenders on the city from feeling their own energy, Li Jingyan did not use her true energy at all. She jumped down into the air with her physical strength. But this city wall is obviously not something that ordinary people can fly by with their feet alone. She was several feet away from the city and her castration ended. Her body instantly settled in the air, and then she had a tendency to fall.
At this moment, Su Chen rushed up from below at high speed, came to Li Jingyan's bottom, and gently dragged her feet.
It was this little bit of power that was enough. Li Jingyan, who had borrowed the power, rose up again and flew past the city wall just at a good height.
In the bright moonlight, the figure that looked like a flying fairy from the sky swept through the air. Unfortunately, no one could see such a beautiful picture.
Just before Li Jingyan flew over the city wall, a group of inspecting soldiers had just walked by. Li Jingyan was completely watching their backs flying over the city wall.
And just as she flew past, her jade wrist was lightly expressed. Under the moonlight, you could vaguely see a silver thread pulling in her hand. After she crossed the city wall, the thread was also pulled straight.
A few seconds later, Su Chen's figure appeared above the city wall. He also pulled a silver thread in his hand. Obviously, this was the one that Li Jingyan had just pulled in his hand.
With Li Jingyan's pulling power, Su Chen easily flew over the city wall. In just a few breaths, the two of them crossed the city wall, which was known as the most solid in the world.
And just as they disappeared under the city, another team of patrolling soldiers appeared from another direction.
"Okay." After landing, Su Chen whispered: "This set of things is not unfamiliar yet."
"I hope you don't let me do this kind of sneaky act with you in the future." Li Jingyan looked at the other party with disgust.
After saying that, the two listened quietly for a moment, then spread their bodies again and rushed towards Qingliang Mountain.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at a hill near Qingliang Temple. They hid their bodies and looked down at the temple below.
"Have you been here before?" Li Jingyan looked for a moment and asked quietly.
"If you walk through the main entrance, you have been here for countless times." Su Chen nodded and responded: "But, it's the first time I sneaked in under such circumstances."
"I really don't understand you." Li Jingyan said: "Since you've come here, just sign up openly. Why do you still have to hide your head and tail? Aren't you all monks here? You won't go out to talk nonsense, right?"
"Monks are also humans." Su Chen shook his head and said, "And, the people here are not ordinary monks. According to reliable information, the relationship between the host here and the Qingyin Temple is very good."
"Oh? How good is it?" Li Jingyan asked casually.
"If my news is correct," Su Chen frowned and said, "The host here, Master Fahong, should be the uncle who is hosted by Qingyin Temple in terms of seniority."
"That uncle of Master Yanzhao?" Li Jingyan was truly surprised and said, "There will be such a person? Then isn't his seniority higher than his master?"
"It should be like this." Su Chen nodded and said, "But Master Fahong was relatively young back then. He could be said to be a disciple who closed the door and entered the room. Therefore, although his seniority is much higher, his actual age should be about the same age as Yan Zhao. He is about seventy or eighty years old. However, he is a disciple of the direct descendant of Qingyin Temple. No matter whether he is Buddhist or martial arts, he is not as good as Yan Zhao."
"That's strange." Li Jingqi said: "If there is such a person, shouldn't he stay in Qingyin Temple? With his status, even if he is not the abbot, he will be the head of the Arhat Hall or something. How could he run into such a small temple to be the host?"
"The location here is special." Su Chen smiled coldly and said, "It is said that Qingyin Temple is a monk, who jumps out of the Three Realms and is not in the Five Elements. But why did other people send such a respectable monk in his temple here?" He asked and answered himself: "Because this is the capital city. At the feet of the emperor, you also know that most of the dignitaries in the capital believe in fate. Although Taoism is the national religion of the country, the emperor does not prohibit the people from believing in other religions. Those destiny women always love to ask for this and that. The incense here is surprisingly good. So they always come a few times in a month. With these long-tongued wives, it is probably not difficult to understand the big and small things happening in the capital."
"Oh." Li Jingyan suddenly said: "It turned out to be a place to spy on intelligence. Doesn't the emperor know? He didn't care?"
"How could he care?" Su Chen sneered again: "When the founding of the country, although Qingyin Temple did not fully help the late emperor like Lingyun Mountain, the late emperor was the orthodox Han emperor, and it was many times stronger than the barbarians of Xiaoyue Kingdom. The abbot of Qingyin Temple at that time was the senior brother of Master Fahong. He was more or less helpful to the late emperor. But the old man's contribution was too great. Therefore, he was taken away by the national master. Correspondingly,
The late emperor did not ban other sects. This Qingliang Temple, which was at that time, began to fall into the control of Qingyin Temple. Although the late emperor saw it, he had no choice but to do so. As long as they did not cause any trouble, they would let it go. So it continued. By the time of this dynasty, the Qingliang Temple had become a famous temple nearby, and it would be destroyed without any evidence. It is estimated that the people would disagree."
"Sometimes I really doubt it." After hearing this, Li Jingyan couldn't help but sigh: "Is that person who is free and carefree in the world every day pretending to be you? You obviously don't have time, so where did you find out so many secrets?"
"This is the mountain man's own trick." Su Chen smiled and said mysteriously: "I naturally have my source of information. But it is not the time to tell you now. I believe you won't be too interested. At present, what we have to worry about is how to sneak into this temple without knowing it. Without being discovered by those monks, he will kidnap Hengche."
