The woman, who felt she was being teased, blushed instantly, and Xu Qingyan quickly stopped while he was ahead. This kind of joke did not seem appropriate at this time... but wealth is always a risky pursuit.
The more special the time, the more it can touch a person's heartstrings.
"Come on, go in."
The two of them climbed up and down the courtyard wall and entered the Taoist temple which seemed to be completely defenseless.
But once you go in.
Xu Qingyan and Pei Yu smelled the faint aroma of boiled herbs. It was not just a simple medicine, because it was mixed with some pungent smell of metal and stone.
This is obviously alchemy.
The footsteps of the two were so light that they could hardly be heard. They walked around the largest tripod in front of the temple.
You can see a tall palace in the middle.
There is a brand new plaque hanging above the palace door.
'Purple Air Comes from the East'.
Because it is located in Donghaizhou, Purple Air Coming from the East is also one of the most common Taoist temple plaques in Donghaizhou.
There's nothing strange about it.
The strange thing is... right in the center of the hall, there is a furnace with a blazing flame, and it seems that some long-cooked elixir is brewing inside.
Surrounding this alchemy furnace were several young men in Taoist robes.
They were not the ones I had seen in the palace during the day, but complete strangers.
They stood guard beside the alchemy furnace, lowering their heads and constantly fanning it with their fans to prevent the flames in the furnace from going out.
At the same time, he was muttering something in a low voice, just like the Buddhist scriptures in the temple. Of course...they wouldn't be the ones recited in the Taoist temple.
only...
"What's next?"
Pei Yu looked at Xu Qingyan and asked about the next steps. This Taoist temple was not very big. Apart from the main hall, there were also wing rooms at the back.
But I guess there won't be anything worth seeing in the back room.
The lights were bright at night, and refining the elixir day and night was not an ordinary sight. The current atmosphere even revealed a sense of weirdness that made people shudder.
Pei Yu asked Xu Qingyan more and more smoothly. How could he care about the so-called initiative now?
If there is a smart person around, then you should use it vigorously instead of not using it.
Xu Qingyan was too lazy to dwell on this issue. He was used to being treated as a tool. And wasn't the most interesting part the episode where the tool fought back?
He said calmly.
"Master Pei, please wait here and act according to the situation."
"And you?"
“Just watch.”
After Xu Qingyan finished speaking, he walked straight out of the only shelter.
Then climb the stairs step by step.
Walking into this grand and magnificent hall, the decoration inside this Taoist temple has nothing to do with thriftiness, and even looks like a miniature version of the palace in the imperial palace.
Exquisite porcelain can be seen everywhere, valuable calligraphy and paintings hang on the wall, and tables, chairs and benches made of precious wood, and even this alchemy furnace... are all inlaid with gold and silver.
His footsteps were obvious, and he had no intention of hiding it from anyone.
As his footsteps appeared at the entrance of the hall, Pei Yu's eyes narrowed. She didn't know if he was trying to be a hero and deliberately appear brave in front of her. Or was he really considering the arrangements for the future?
But at this point, she was somewhat unable to grasp the direction of this undercurrent.
On the contrary, this young man always seems to have his own ideas, like an eagle that will never get lost and can find the target accurately.
Is this all he's hiding?
He certainly doesn't look like an inner sect disciple who has little experience in the world...
Several young Taoists who were refining elixirs raised their heads and looked at the handsome young man in grey clothes who suddenly appeared at the door.
They didn't say: It's so late, the Taoist temple is no longer accepting pilgrims.
Nor did he ask about the boy's background.
It seems like a tacit understanding.
They just looked at the boy.
Then he stood up silently.
Xu Qingyan looked at the people with a smile.
"It seems like he knew I would come... Come to think of it, the words of the person in the palace who specifically asked me to come to the Taoist temple... It seems more like an open conspiracy."
The young Taoist priests did not answer, and seemed to have no idea what Xu Qingyan was talking about.
But they seem to be very clear about their current purpose.
They all picked up their fans and faced Xu Qingyan.
Muttering to oneself.
“Fresh ingredients again...”
"The quality of the pills this time must be very good."
"Well...keep his hair and make a whisk for Master."
Xu Qingyan didn't panic at all when he heard these strange words. Instead, he smiled and looked at the people.
"So this is how you usually make pills?"
"Kill him."
No nonsense.
Four people instantly rushed towards Xu Qingyan from four angles, two from the flanks, one directly towards Xu Qingyan, and the remaining one jumped high into the air.
He showed a jumping ability that was definitely not that of an ordinary person.
Xu Qingyan stared over.
Instead of retreating, move forward, the moment you take a step forward.
"boom!!"
It was as if an invisible wave of air was rising, and the air ahead suddenly stagnated.
Not only did it cause the air to vibrate, but the four figures rushing towards him also paused for a moment.
In such a situation, even a moment's miss would be a fatal mistake.
Xu Qingyan's goal was naturally to seize such a mistake.
He didn't say any nonsense and just went straight ahead.
"boom!!"
He kicked a Taoist priest on the flank directly.
The Taoist priest flew backwards and hit the wall, which created a huge hole in the wall. He was dead or alive on the spot.
At the same time, a Taoist priest next to the Taoist priest who had just flown away raised his hand and tried to pierce Xu Qingyan's throat with his sharp fan.
It looked like he was very close and fast enough, so he had a good chance of succeeding.
but.
"boom!!"
The young man turned around and used an uppercut that Pei Yu couldn't understand, knocking the Taoist priest 360 degrees on the spot.
Lying on the ground, bleeding profusely.
When Xu Qingyan paused for a moment and turned around to look at the remaining two people, the two of them paused slightly.
The young boy smiled.
"It has come to this, isn't it time for the real culprit to show up? You are not strong enough to fight."
Pei Yu, who had been watching from outside, spat softly.
He never forgets to act cool...Does he have any brains?
Sometimes smart, sometimes reckless.
Facing Xu Qingyan, the remaining two Taoists looked at each other.
They nodded to each other, as if they had reached some consensus at that moment.
I saw two people rushing to the burning furnace quickly, and then...
"boom!!"
He raised his hand suddenly, and the alchemy furnace opened with a bang.
Xu Qingyan frowned and looked at the two Taoists.
"What did you do?"
He felt that there was some dangerous aura brewing in the furnace.
And it's getting worse and worse. It turns out that this alchemy furnace is the means prepared by those Taoists?
But the two Taoists did not answer his words, not because they did not want to answer, but perhaps... they simply did not have the opportunity to answer.
They lowered their heads and muttered something, then jumped into the alchemy furnace which was more than a person tall without hesitation!
Not only did they jump in, but they couldn't even hear screams, only the sound of burning.
next moment.
Feeling something was wrong, Xu Qingyan immediately left the hall.
And at the moment he stepped out.
"boom!!"
In the hall in front of me, flames were flying everywhere, and the alchemy furnace exploded violently.
A powerful and scorching air wave rushed out, and Xu Qingyan used his body-protecting Qi to resist the scorching air radiation.
The places visible to the naked eye, where the air wave was affected, were all charred black, and the weeds on the ground were burned to dust.
It was like an instant cleansing.
The increasingly bright firelight made Xu Qingyan close his eyes slightly.
Pei Yu, who was hiding on the side before, could not help but use his body protection Qi while covering his eyes.
When the sound seemed to gradually subside.
Xu Qingyan opened his eyes.
Then his pupils couldn't help but shrink. What he saw before his eyes... was not what it should be. It was the ruins of the Taoist temple after the explosion.
But... bamboo forest.
And it was a bamboo forest that he was quite familiar with.
On Xueyu Mountain, there is a bamboo forest leading to Ye Yanxi's bamboo house!
There is absolutely no such powerful force that can allow me to accomplish this level of movement in an instant, just like the transfer of space.
So this must not be true, and the aftermath of the furnace explosion was an illusion?
Is this a method of creating an illusion?
At the cost of sacrificing those two Taoists, he used a violent explosion to bring himself into such an illusion?
and many more.
What about Pei Yu?
Xu Qingyan was thinking about this and how to resolve this strange illusion that he had never experienced before.
"clatter--"
