Day and night tour

Chapter 173 Blood Well High Priest
While Zhou Xuan was telling the story of "Taoists absorbing Buddha's energy", Li Chengfeng was still smelling the scent of the divine silk.

His expression suddenly changed, as if he smelled a scent that haunted him...

The story Zhou Xuan made up is very credible.

There is evidence - the broken divine threads on the ground.

There are conditions - only people with great supernatural powers can burn down the huge Qiye Temple and consume all the Buddhist energy in the temple. Taoists meet the requirements.

As for motivation?

The Bone Elders’ research on Taoists is very superficial. Who knows what kind of strange and powerful creatures those Taoists are?

What motives they had for absorbing the Buddha's energy from the Qiye Temple, it all depends on how the senior members of the Bone Elders Association think.
But it was that smell that "haunted" Li Chengfeng that caused him to not believe Zhou Xuan's story.
Even the emotions that he had hidden in his heart for many years could no longer be suppressed, like a mountain torrent that had already overflowed the sluice gates, with a tendency to burst out.

"Young Master, in my report to Master Gu's "Scholars Association", I will write that the Taoist swallowed the Buddha's Qi from the Seven Leaves Temple."

Li Chengfeng's words are worth pondering. He specifically emphasized that this would be written in the report, which shows that he did not believe what Zhou Xuan said... But since Zhou Xuan said so, he wrote the report in this way.

"You don't believe me?" Zhou Xuan asked.

"The divine silk is indeed from a Taoist, but it has another deep aura... If I'm not mistaken, it should be the smell of the blood well."

Zhou Xuan just remembered that when he cut off the divine thread, it was the tentacles of the blood well that wrapped around the bone tooth...

If that's the case, the broken thread will also have the aura of the "Blood Well" remaining... But how can Li Chengfeng identify that kind of aura?
But Zhou Xuan was not panicked. This omission was not important. He only needed to make a brief supplement, "The Taoist absorbs the Buddha's energy, the blood well appears, and competes with it." Anyway, he just needed to get Zhou Xuan out.

Zhou Xuan calmly organized his words, ready to fill in the "settings" and continue to complete the story, but he noticed that Li Chengfeng's eyes had changed.

In the few interactions with Teacher Li, Zhou Xuan's impression of Li Chengfeng was that he had the demeanor and pride of a scholar, but at the same time he also yearned for and worshipped the power of a god.

Obviously, Li Chengfeng believed in the god of pain and disaster, but after the Nuo god used his bone teeth to chop out that amazing blow, he could not hide the fanaticism in his eyes.

Among these impressions, Zhou Xuan never read great sadness in Li Chengfeng's eyes!
But at this moment, Li Chengfeng's weather-beaten eyes were filled with tears.

"Little sir, please touch my forehead!"

Zhou Xuan: “…”

It's a bit weird for a man to touch another man's forehead.

"Please touch my forehead, and then release a little bit of your perception. Just a little bit, and you will know who I am..."

Li Chengfeng's tears had already overflowed, leaving tear marks on his face.

Zhou Xuan was infected by the sadness and was somewhat moved. He did not insist any more and gently placed his hand on Li Chengfeng's forehead, releasing his very little perception.

But this little bit of perception seemed to be sucked by something inside Li Chengfeng's body, and ran towards that thing uncontrollably.

The perception rushed to the object and conveyed the appearance of the object to Zhou Xuan.

It is a "cavity".
There are some "empty" places in Li Chengfeng's flesh and blood body. There are six cavities in total, each as big as a thumb.

Inside the cavity, Zhou Xuan's perception detected an inexplicable feeling - there was a smell of blood in these cavities.

"Why do you smell like blood?"

Zhou Xuan asked with a frown.

"It was the Blood Well that gave me a second life, but I betrayed it!"

Li Chengfeng lowered his head like a child who had made a mistake, his voice trembling.

"When I was ten years old, I got a strange disease and became weaker and weaker. The doctors were helpless and I was about to die. My father prayed to the gods everywhere and joined many organizations, some gloomy and some glorious, asking the White Walkers and gods to cure my disease.
However, no god or alien responded to him.

Even so, he still did not give up his piety and continued to seek help from gods and white walkers.

Finally, on the Laba Night of the Year of the Well Country, the Blood Well appeared in my father’s dream.

In his dream, my father kowtowed to the Blood Well, praying that it could cure my illness. The Blood Well blessed my father with six drops of blood!

When my father woke up from his dream, he saw six red drops of blood in his palm. The drops of blood could roll around in his palm, but they could not merge with each other. He called me over and asked me to swallow the six drops of blood.

"Then your illness was cured?" Zhou Xuan asked.

“Okay, although I’m not a psychic of the Blood Well, I am a person who has truly survived because of the blessing of the Blood Well. I have the mark of the Blood Well and the aura of the Blood Well on my body… It is the Blood Well that has allowed me to live a new life!
However, as I grew up, the Well Country suddenly started hunting down the Blood Well Psychic.

The operation was on a large scale, with many perverted scholars using the Blood Well psychic to conduct research. They called the Blood Well psychic "patients"!
I was very scared. I was very scared that I would be arrested as a patient, especially because I had seen with my own eyes a psychic from the Blood Well whose heart was dug out on the street...

When I got home, I was afraid of being implicated. I was so scared that I lost my mind and used a corn repair knife to dig out the "six drops of blood" from my body!
I put them in a small homemade coffin and buried them in the hill behind my house!
After so many years, I still often have nightmares about someone trying to arrest me in the name of being a patient.

Sometimes I feel regretful and guilty that I abandoned the blessing of the Blood Well just to save my life. Abandoning the blessing is tantamount to betrayal."

"So what?" Zhou Xuan asked.

"Resurrecting the God of Pain and Disaster is my job, my life, and the belief I impose on myself.
But taking refuge in the Blood Well is my long-cherished wish at my advanced age, a long-cherished wish that has always been hidden deep in my heart.
Let me follow you.

The future High Priest of the Blood Well!"

Zhou Xuan: “…”

He found it difficult to understand this title.

"Bloodwell is the first and most powerful alien in the world. Our ancestors performed many sacrifices for it, begging for its coming..."

"Don't say that for now. Let me ask you, there are so many people who can communicate with the Blood Well, why should I be the future High Priest of the Blood Well!"

"Because it will show up to help you cut the divine thread! If I guess correctly, it has merged with your divine secret realm... The reason for this is that it chose you to carry the will of the Blood Well!"

Zhou Xuan suddenly realized and secretly scolded Xue Jing in his heart: "Jingzi, you are the most greedy. It turns out that we are all family members, but you still want to ask me for sacrifice."

The blood well in the Shenqi Secret Realm was very angry, and it raised the well in the Feiyue. A few drops of blood from the well splashed out and sprinkled on Zhou Xuan's face, as if it was spitting "saliva" at Zhou Xuan.

"Let me follow you, the future High Priest of the Blood Well." Li Chengfeng pleaded again.

"I have to ask that."

Zhou Xuan also has to consider Xue Jing's feelings.

If you think about it carefully, the Blood Well has helped me a lot for free... For example, the tattoo of the monk Wangyue was created by the Blood Well crushing the bright moon.

Another example is the Twelve Dharma Images of the Ancestral Witch, which is performed by the Lantern Bride in Feiyue.

Xuejing really helped Zhou Xuan. Now, whether to accept a "Xuejing betrayer" as a disciple or not, he had to consider Xuejing's opinion. Zhou Xuan entered the secret realm and asked Feiyue: "Your betrayer wants to convert again. Do you agree or not?

I think it's not easy for him, especially to meet your followers. It's too miserable, being stared at by so many people, and being exposed to them at every turn!"

The color of the scarlet moon was changing, and a black figure appeared in the strange scarlet color!

The figure was Li Chengfeng.

"Does this mean you agree?"

Zhou Xuan cut off the connection to the secret realm and saw a smile on Li Chengfeng's face.

He bowed towards Zhou Xuan and said, "I feel the connection between me and the Blood Well. From now on, everything I say and do will be seen by the Blood Well. High Priest, if you enter the secret realm, you will also be able to see my words and actions!"

Zhou Xuan followed this link and thought of the link that the Tattoo Ancient Clan gave him.

No one knew where the ancient tribe was, but they were able to connect to him. Now that I think about it, this was a link from the god level!
The ancestral tree and the blood well are both at the god level, so who is the god of the ancient tribe?
The answer must be found in the Dark Stone, the Blood Tree, and the Library.

However, since Li Chengfeng is now one of us, we can ask him first.

"Okay, I've hung up the link for you, and I've converted you to the Blood Well, but I still haven't done my job."

Zhou Xuan took out the Dark Stone and showed it to Li Chengfeng: "Look at this stone, what is it?"

Li Chengfeng picked up the stone and looked at it carefully. After looking at it for a while, he shook his head and said, "I can't tell."

"Then I'll check it myself."

Zhou Xuan asked, "Room 1907 in Liyuan Building is a library. The library is divided into sections. I want to go to the second, fourth, and ninth sections to browse books. Can you arrange it for me?"

"It will take time!" Li Chengfeng said, "That library is our Gu Lao's library. The senior members of our Gu Lao can go in, but outsiders need to apply for qualifications to go in... High Priest, what book are you looking for? I will help you read the records."

What book are you looking for? How would I know what book to look for if I don’t bring the Book of Cleansing Wrongs with me?

"Please apply as soon as possible. I will find one myself."

Zhou Xuan instructed again: "You must write a good report on Qiye Temple. I hope that this matter will end with the story I made up. Don't involve it further to save trouble."

"clear."

"By the way, please call me Young Mister from now on. The name of High Priest is likely to cause trouble."

……

Zhang Yifeng and the four city gods were waiting outside.

Lu Yusheng, the "armor-bearer", arrived late. When he saw Zhang Yifeng, he asked, "Where is the young man you were talking about?"

"Master Heshu has gone inside to investigate the case."

"Why not stop it?"

"Can we stop Master Shu?" Zhang Yifeng was not convinced by Lu Yusheng.

His position was "Xingling", while Lu Yusheng's position was "Zhijiaxiang", which was a full level lower than the other.

In terms of incense, Zhang Yifeng is obviously better than Lu Yusheng. One is sitting at the top and looking forward to six, while the other has just over five incense sticks.

But Lu Yusheng is highly appreciated by the top leaders of Gu Lao, and he also has many magical weapons at his disposal. If they really fight, Zhang Yifeng has little chance of winning.

"If Master Shu can't stop it, then the young man can't stop it either?"

Lu Yusheng questioned again.

"Why are you taking your anger out on us night watchmen? If you have the ability, go inside and find Master Shu yourself."

Zhang Yifeng and Lu Yusheng didn't get along well in the first place, and he became even more upset when the other party came over and acted bossy.

"Hmph, four useless pieces of shit!"

Lu Yusheng glanced at the four people and entered the tower.

At this time, Zhou Xuan was about to leave and happened to meet Lu Yusheng.

"Stop, are you the one who swallowed the Buddha's energy?!"

Lu Yusheng put his hands behind his back and asked Zhou Xuan in a cold manner.

"Who are you? Why are you farting right here?" Zhou Xuan glanced at Lu Yusheng even more coldly.

"Young sir, he is Zhijiaxiang."

Li Chengfeng gave Zhou Xuan some popular science knowledge.

The City God has twelve incense masters.

The twelve incense masters are divided into three flags - Feng, Zhi and Tang.

The main responsibility of the incense master of the wind flag is to communicate with the gods. There are four incense masters: Dianfeng, Jingfeng, Gangfeng and Yufeng.

The incense master holding the flag is in charge of external affairs. The four incense masters are respectively - the one holding the armor, the one holding the flag, the one holding the seal and the one holding the sword.

The incense master with the hall flag is in charge of the internal affairs of the hall. There are four incense masters: Yatang, Hutang, Jiantang and Zuotang.

Lu Yusheng is the armored incense master holding the flag with a character on it. He is the incense master with the most authority in the City God's external affairs except for the three heads.

"Oh, you can't fart randomly even if you are a Zhijiaxiang. I have told Teacher Li who swallowed the Buddha's Qi. You can ask him yourself."

After saying this, Zhou Xuan walked out.

Lu Yusheng reached out to grab Zhou Xuan's vest. Seeing this, Li Chengfeng held the flame with his right hand and squeezed it hard.

Suddenly, a mark of fire exploded on Lu Yusheng's face, burning him so much that he withdrew his hands to cover his face.

And Zhou Xuan had already walked out of the tower in a swagger.

Lu Yusheng wanted to chase him, but Li Chengfeng shouted, "Little Lu, aren't you scared yet?"
