kingly way

Chapter 93 Chapter 093

Listening to their conversation, Tao Yilan slowly walked out from behind the broken wall.

The villagers were startled when they saw her come out from behind the ruined wall; again they braced themselves for a fight;

"she is my friend."

Ying Luo waved his hand to signal everyone not to be nervous.

Everyone looked at Ying Luo and Tao Yilan, and finally felt relieved.

"Hey..."

"Hiss..."

There was a rush of hoofbeats and horse neighing.

"It's Lei Gong and the others who are here..."

The villagers suddenly became frightened and wanted to run away.

"Everyone, don't be nervous, hide in the broken house." Ying Luo said to them.

When several villagers heard Yingluo's words, they immediately ran into the dilapidated house.

After a while, more than 20 horses came, and all the riders looked fierce.

"It's them..."

The person who spoke was a member of the escaped Gar Gang, and the leader was Shi Yilan, the fifth leader of the bandits in Mt.

Ying Luo and Shi Yilan had met at the Yizuka Inn back then.

However, Ying Luo was only thirteen or fourteen years old at the time, and he was an unremarkable child next to Lu Xiangdong;

Now another six or seven years have passed, and Ying Luo has grown into an adult, his face and body have changed a lot, Shi Yilan naturally can't recognize him;

But Shi Yilan's appearance didn't change much, and it was related to Lu Xiangdong's death, Ying Luo naturally recognized him.

'Today I must kill him to avenge Senior Lu. '

When Ying Luo thought that these bandits harmed the common people and indirectly killed Lu Xiangdong, he couldn't help being furious, and his eyes lit up with murderous intent.

"Leave the things and spare your lives."

Next to Shi Yilan, a brawny man dressed as a little boss yelled loudly.

"Haha, such a pretty girl, haha, take her back and be my concubine."

Shi Yilan looked at Tao Yilan with malicious intentions and laughed.

Shi Yilan and the robbers from Mount Zhongzuo didn't pay attention to Ying Luo at all, they just cared about making fun of Tao Yilan
"asshole……"

Tao Yilan shouted loudly, drew his sword and stabbed at Shi Yilan.

"Haha, little girls can't wait, throw yourself into your arms!"

Shi Yilan smirked, but he didn't dare to neglect his hands. He jumped from the horse to the ground, drew out his knife and went up to him.

The two of you come and go, fighting for more than ten strokes and still not winning or losing;
Ying Luo picked up a stone from the ground, he kneaded the stone into small stones with his hands, raised his hand, and the small stones came out of his hands, and hit Shi Yilan's Renying acupoint with a "chi".

Shi Yilan suddenly felt dizzy and couldn't even lift the knife.

Tao Yilan swung his sword and stabbed Shi Yilan in the chest.

With a "chi", Tao Yilan's sword passed through Shi Yilan's chest.

Shi Yilan took a few steps back, blood gushing out from his chest like a fountain.

Shi Yilan fell backwards slowly, and never stood up again, and reported to Yan Luodian;

"Let's go together and kill her."

The brawny man dressed as the little boss yelled, they thought Shi Yilan was killed by Tao Yilan, they ignored Ying Luo who looked thin next to him, and focused all their attention on Tao Yilan, treating her as the biggest enemy, all weapons were aimed at her Say hello.

Ying Luo raised his hand slightly, and a small stone was shot at Renying acupoint of the strong man.

The strong man suddenly felt dizzy, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Of course, the angry Tao Yilan had to be merciless, the neck of the 'lamb' to be slaughtered was spurting blood in an instant, and then slowly fell down like a 'lamb' that had been slaughtered.

Ying Luo threw stones a few times, and several people were hit in their acupoints, turning into lambs waiting to be slaughtered. Naturally, Tao Yilan was not polite, and immediately slaughtered several lambs.

How dare the other robbers stay and be slaughtered sheep?He yelled a few times, his feet felt oily, and he ran away in a hurry.

"Such a beautiful beauty killed so many men at once, so she was so ruthless; hahaha..."

Ying Luo clapped his hands and laughed loudly.

"The expert is helping in secret, please show up and be worshiped by the little girl."

Tao Yilan rolled her eyes at Ying Luo, and clapped her hands around;

"Let's go quickly, the robbers from Miaozuka Mountain are coming again."

Ying Luo smiled slightly.

Tao Yilan pouted, jumped on the horse, and galloped away with Ying Luo, leaving behind a few stunned villagers...

Ying Luo originally wanted to rest at the Yizuka Inn, but he didn't expect that there was only a broken wall left in the inn, and he couldn't rest. He even fought a fierce battle, and he couldn't help feeling a little tired...

"Is there an inn in front?" Tao Yilan asked.

"Because of the scourge of the bandits on the Mt. Zhongzuo, it seems that there are no inns in a radius of tens of miles. Who dares to sell meat at the mouth of the tiger?" Ying Luo said with a smile.

"There should be a village ahead, let's go quickly." Tao Yilan said.

"Um,"

Ying Luo Yi raised the long whip in his hand, and the horse galloped forward.

"There seems to be a Taoist temple in front, let's go and have a look, maybe we can stay there for a night."

Tao Yilan pointed to the shadow of a building not far away;

"Well, let's go and have a look." Ying Luo said;
After a while, they arrived at the entrance of the building, and it was indeed an ancient Taoist temple.

The ancient Taoist temple has been in disrepair for a long time, and it looks dilapidated;

There is a sign hanging at the entrance of the Ancient Taoist Temple, and you can vaguely see the words "Three Lives Palace" written on the sign;

Yingluo is about to knock on the door of Taoism;

"and many more."

Tao Yilan stopped Ying Luo;
"What's the matter? This should be a deserted Taoist temple."

Ying Luo looked at Tao Yilan and said;

"There is a proverb that says, 'It is better to sleep in a barren grave than to live in a ruined temple', we should be more careful." Tao Yilan said.

"What does it mean?"

Ying Luo has been in Guigu all along, and has never been in the rivers and lakes. Naturally, he doesn't understand some rules in the rivers and lakes, so he can't help but wonder.

"The abandoned temple may be a place where filth is hidden, and there may be some desperate robbers living in it; we'd better be careful."

"Ah."

Ying Luo looked back at the careful Tao Yilan and smiled slightly.

"Is anyone here?"

Tao Yilan turned around and stepped forward to knock on the Taoist temple door.

No one responded.

"Is anyone here?"

She knocked on the door of Taoist Temple again, but still no one answered.

Tao Yilan was about to open the door of the Taoist temple.

"Squeak" sounded.

The door was opened suddenly, and a middle-aged Taoist priest had a face-to-face exchange with Tao Yilan.

Tao Yilan couldn't help jumping back, he easily pulled Ying Luo back.

The sword is already in her hand.

"You two laymen, why are you knocking at the door of the Taoist temple at night?"

The Taoist crossed his hands in front of his abdomen, the thumb of his left hand at the base of his ring finger, his thumb of his right pinched the tip of his middle finger, and the other four fingers of his left hand clasped his right hand, and bowed to Tao Yilan.

"The Taoist priest is polite. We are disturbed in the middle of the night, and we are deeply frightened. We lost our way here, and seeing that it is getting late, so I asked the priest if it would be convenient for us to stay overnight?"

Tao Yilan clasped her fists in return;
"This temple has been in disrepair for a long time, and there is no extra room." The Taoist said.

"Oh, then there will be Daoist disturbance."

Tao Yilan saluted the Taoist priest.

"He doesn't even have a heart of compassion, what kind of a monk is he?"

Tao Yilan murmured in her heart and turned around to leave.

Suddenly a young Taoist priest walked out of the door, and he whispered something in the Taoist priest's ear.

The middle-aged Taoist gave Tao Yilan and the others another look.

"There is no inn in a radius of more than [-] miles, and the population is sparse. The two lay Buddhists should not be able to find accommodation here. The monks are compassionate. If the two benefactors do not think the temple is dilapidated, the temple will allow the benefactor to live here. Let's go overnight," said the middle-aged Taoist priest.

"Oh, then there will be Daoist disturbance."

Tao Yilan took a step forward and said to the middle-aged Taoist.

"Please, two laymen."

The middle-aged Taoist made a gesture of invitation to Ying Luo and Tao Yilan, and then walked into the Taoist temple.

"Master, please."

Ying Luo and Tao Yilan followed the middle-aged Taoist priest into the Taoist temple.

The Taoist temple was desolate and desolate, and Ying Luo couldn't help letting out a hiss.

"There have always been robbers in this area, and there have been constant wars recently. The Taoist temple has almost lost its incense. The Taoist friends walked away, and there are not many people left. The entire Taoist temple is barren."

The middle-aged Taoist seemed to see what Yingluo was thinking.

"Since this place is so complicated, why didn't the Taoist priest go with everyone?" Tao Yilan asked.

"Hey, wars and chaos here won't affect you, and robbers won't bother you. Although it's poor, it's still stable. I'm getting old, so I just need to get used to it," said the middle-aged Taoist.

"That's right, there are constant wars, and it's difficult to settle down everywhere. I don't know when the wars will end." Tao Yilan said.

"These two squatter rooms were left by the former fellow Taoists. If you two laymen don't dislike them, please rest in these two squatter rooms."

They talked as they walked, and soon they arrived at the dormitory, the middle-aged Taoist said.

"Thank you, Daoist." Ying Luo clasped his fists at the Taoist priest.

"The two laymen, please rest. The poor Taoist will not bother you. Please remember, two laymen, if there is any movement outside, do not leave the room door." The middle-aged Taoist said.

"Thank you, Daoist." Ying Luo and Tao Yilan clasped their fists at the middle-aged Taoist.

……

"Brother Yingluo, do you think this Taoist priest is weird? At first he said that there were no extra huts, but later he admitted us to live in, and there are so many huts left."

After the middle-aged Taoist priest left, Tao Yilan approached Yingluo and said in a low voice.

"Maybe they don't want to take us in because they don't know our details and don't want to cause trouble." Ying Luo said;
"I think these two Taoist priests are weird, we'd better be careful." Tao Yilan said.

"Yeah." Ying Luo nodded.
