Mysterious Tang Dynasty

After Li Lijun left the market, he joined Erhong in the backyard, but they didn't leave the old temple right away.

Li Lijun brought Erhong to the main hall ahead, and took her to offer incense to Empress Houtu, and asked Empress to bless the two of them on their return journey, hoping that they would not encounter any villains with no eyesight.

In fact, when they came, they had already paid homage to Empress Houtu once, but at that time Li Lijun prayed that the trip to the cultivation market would go well.Now that the plan is indeed going well, I have to change my wish on the return trip.Li Lijun specially made another offering, using the same kinds of offerings as last time, only flowers and pastries, but unfortunately there was nothing unusual this time.

Although Erhong followed Li Lijun's instructions to pay respects to Empress Houtu, she looked at the god statue she could no longer recognize in front of her, and she didn't understand why Li Lijun was so respectful to this fairy empress, and she even made a special offering: "I seem to be a slave!" I seldom hear of the temple of this Queen of the Earth, didn’t the little lady only worship the gods of Buddhism and Taoism in the past? Why are you worshiping this lady now?”

"The elders worship the gods, and I can only worship along, it's nothing." Li Lijun replied, "I am a Taoist disciple now, and then Tu Niangniang is our Taoist immortal, or a living god! We worship her, will she know how to do it?" There is a gift."

Erhong's eyes widened, she believed it immediately, and she was sincere when she kowtowed.Although she didn't feel anything special after kowtowing, Li Lijun was not discouraged either.After all, Er Hong followed her orders to pay homage to Empress Dowager Tu, unlike the last time she did it on her own initiative, maybe she felt that she was not sincere enough.But as long as Erhong pays homage to the empress a few more times in the future, the empress will naturally look at her pleasing to the eye.

Li Lijun specifically told Erhong: "In the future, ask more people to find out where there is the temple of Empress Houtu, and let's go to the temple a few more times, and ask the empress to bless us all in good health."

Erhong nodded repeatedly.

After a while, Li Lijun took Erhong to pack the offerings.Erhong found that the fairy dew in the cup had disappeared, and the tea leaves had lost their original fragrance, and she believed even more in her heart that she was worshiping a living god today, wishing she could kowtow a few more times.

Li Lijun looked at her with a smile, and didn't take it seriously, but when she was about to leave the main hall, she suddenly became vigilant and had an ominous intuition.

In the past, when she was adventuring in the mission world, this intuition saved her from several catastrophes.She immediately became serious, grabbed Er Hong, and quickly turned back to the backyard.

She wanted to re-enter the comprehension market, but before her hand touched the stone, her heart suddenly beat fast.She immediately felt something was wrong.Although she didn't know what was going on, but since she felt bad, she could no longer enter the market.Looking back at the ground in the backyard, she quickly came to the open space in the corner, opened a big pit with magic, and jumped in with Erhong. The original look, can not see any difference.

Li Lijun quickly dug a hole in the soil, and soon opened up a space of two to three cubic meters above the ground.She then took out the prepared disk from the storage space, placed it in the center of the ground and opened it. A protective disk that could ensure the breathing activities of the people inside and prevent any movement from leaking out covered the entire cave.

Li Lijun was still not at ease, and shot several breath-holding talismans and protective talismans on the surrounding cave walls, for fear that enemies outside would find her and Erhong hiding here.

Erhong watched her do what she did, and kept silent all the time so as not to disturb her.After she finished her work, she sat down cross-legged and said to herself: "Now you can speak in a low voice." Only then did Erhong dare to speak: "Little lady, what's going on here? What's wrong?" She just said Dare to speak with anger.

Li Lijun replied in a low voice: "I suddenly feel ominous, suspecting that there are bad guys waiting for us." She tilted her head, "It's strange... We were obviously very careful, and we did enough drama. Most people think that there is someone behind us. The boss is here, so I dare not act recklessly. Who else would want to harm us?"

Erhong swallowed: "Then... we are hiding here now? Can we hide?"

"Let's hide for a while. I left a paper crane on the tree outside. I can see what happens." Li Lijun took out a hand mirror, and after taking protective measures, he opened the one hidden between the branches and leaves of the big tree. The vision of the little paper crane.

The backyard was silent, and there seemed to be nothing unusual, but the drone in the sky sent a warning through the system.

The drone was released by Li Lijun before leaving Xianyang City, and they followed her and Erhong all the way to the old temple, and shared the task of guarding.After they entered the self-cultivation market, the drone remained high in the sky without moving, and Li Lijun had no plans to take it back for the time being, but he did not expect to capture something good now.

A few people dressed in black and covering their heads and faces were approaching the old temple from four directions around.They didn't speak to each other, they only communicated with their fingers.Under the signal of a suspected leader, the other three hid on the left and right outside the main hall door and at the other end of the backyard wall, and the leader waited outside the main entrance of the front yard.

Who are they trying to ambush?Or are you planning to commit indiscriminate robbery?But isn't there a Daoist Zhuji who is in charge of monitoring this market?Robbing at the exit of the market, isn't it too blatant?

The drone was too far away, Li Lijun could only see the actions of these few, but could not determine their identities and cultivation levels, and the little paper cranes in the backyard could not see the positions of these few, so she couldn't help frowning .

Everyone waited for about a quarter of an hour, and then two people came out of the cultivation fair, a middle-aged man and a young man. They were not well-dressed, and their appearance was not outstanding, but their eyes were sharper. They probably were not ordinary casual cultivators. .At this time, it was already bright outside, the sun was high and the sun was shining brightly, illuminating both of their bodies clearly.Through the eyes of the little paper crane, Li Lijun vaguely recognized that the clothes on these two people were made of high-grade cassock materials sold in the market. Don't look down on them, the price is not low.

After the two of them came out, they quickly took a look at the surrounding environment, and after confirming that there was no problem, they walked towards the front hall one after the other.Afterwards, the man in black, who was watching outside the wall, climbed over the wall and came in, blocking the big stone at the entrance of the market, blocking the two people's back path.

After a while, there was a conflict ahead, and the two turned their heads and fled back to the backyard, just in time to be blocked by the man in black, and immediately fought with him.Originally two against one, they had the upper hand, but the three who blocked the front door arrived quickly, and four against two, they immediately fell into a disadvantage.

The middle-aged man protected the injured young man, and angrily said to the four black-clothed men: "You intercept the road here, and violated the taboo of the cultivation market, aren't you afraid that the real person in the city will take action?!"

The leading man in black sneered: "What are we afraid of? You Shangqing disciples came to the site of Zhenxian Temple sneakily, and the disciples of Zhenxian Temple will meddle in their own business? It's already very moral!"

The man in black who was blocking the entrance of the market also said: "Our brothers have already discovered that you two sneaked in, and you brought a lot of good things with you, and bought foundation building pills and magic weapons in the market... inquire You are planning to leave today, we have been guarding around since midnight, waiting to make a fortune! Don’t expect anyone to pass by to save you. There is still more than a day left in the scattered collection, who will leave at this time? Everyone is hurrying It’s time to practice for another day. At this time, no newcomers will come to the market. Even if someone does come, our eldest brother is at the seventh level of Qi Refining, and we will kill as many as come, what are you afraid of?!”

Upon hearing that the leading man in black was at the seventh level of qi refining, the two disciples showed despairing expressions.
