314,314 White Ghost Palace(1/2)
Zhao Pu and Gongsun returned to the Commander's Mansion from the military camp, and happened to encounter Zhan Zhao and others who had captured a large group of monks and returned.
The prince is quite disgusted - these monks are all dressed up in weird ways.
After interrogation, the prince was so angry that he was speechless.
No matter the heads of the four major sects or the Black Skull Sect, they all insist on the same theory.
In their words, the Temple Mount is hollow, and there is a skeleton evil god hidden in the Temple Mount.
The so-called Sacred Heart Scroll is used to summon demons, just like the demon-calling flags used by Nuwa, it is used to summon evil spirits in the world.
Zhao Pu looked at the eight monks speechlessly - could these be eight fools...
But the eight people were convinced of this. When asked what evidence they had to prove this statement, the reasons they gave were even more incredible.
Wang Zuan said, "He is actually not a military commander himself, but a special envoy from the palace. He was ordered by the king to go to the northwest to find clues about the evil skull god."
"Which emperor?" Zhan Zhao was a little curious.
"Li Min." Wang Zuan looked at Feng Meng and said, "Ask him, everything happened because of him."
Seeing that the blame was placed on him, Feng Meng had no choice but to confess, "Actually, I did discover the secret of the Hollow on the Temple Mount when I was on the Temple Mount... But at that time, I was discovered by the old monk during the night exploration.
So I had no choice but to flee down the mountain overnight. I went directly to the garrison stationed nearby and asked them to report the news to the court. Not long after, Wang Zuan came with a secret order. Li Min ordered us to continue investigating the Temple Mount and the skeletons.
The Secret of the Evil God."
Zhao Pu became slightly more interested after hearing what happened in the previous dynasty, and asked, "What happened next?"
"Later... we knew that the dynasty was on the verge of collapse. It was only a matter of time before the White Ghost King went north. We were not serious defenders at all, and staying to defend the city would be a dead end! And we were still at the first level, so we might as well fake our own death...
...In addition, we also heard that the clue to the evil god we are looking for is in the White Ghost Palace."
As soon as Wang Zuan said these words, everyone was stunned.
None of the old men were here, so they probably weren't interested.
Gongsun asked Zhao Pu - have you been to the White Ghost Palace?
Zhao Pu shook his head and looked at Bai Yutang.
Fifth Master also shook his head. This was the first time he heard about the White Ghost Palace.
Zhan Zhao blinked - where do you think your uncle lived before?
The Fifth Master touched his chin - didn't he say he was very poor? He thought he lived in the mountains and built a thatched hut around a piece of animal skin.
Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang speechlessly - so do you think your grandmother is a savage princess?
Wang Zuan continued, "According to legend, there are piles of bones in the White Ghost Palace where the White Ghost King lives, and the walls are decorated with dead bones. Moreover, the White Ghost King is cruel by nature..."
Although what this boy said was correct, Zhao Pu still couldn't help but glare at him.
Wang Zuan felt that the looks around him suddenly became less friendly, so he restrained himself, "The White Ghost King himself has an unknown origin. There are rumors that he is the successor of Yize, and is half human and half demon..."
Before Wang Zuan could finish his words, he received a look from Zhao Pu.
The White Ghost King was too scary back then, so there were various legends about his origin, many of which led him in the direction of demons, but they were all fabricated.
Wang Zuan looked at Feng Meng.
Feng Meng continued, "We originally wanted to take advantage of his Northern Expedition to sneak into the White Ghost Palace to look for clues... but we couldn't find the entrance to the palace at all..."
"What did you take with you when you left?" Bai Yutang asked.
The four of them looked at each other, as if they wanted to hide something.
Zhao Pu naturally knew that the three of them were dishonest, and reminded him, "There may be descendants of the people in the city who were abandoned by you in our Black Wind City. They would love to see you if they pushed you onto the tower and smashed your bones into ashes."
The four people were so frightened that they waved their hands and confessed honestly that what they took away was a Buddha head, which Feng Meng had stolen from the Temple Mount.
"Where is the Buddha head in the Temple Mountain?" Lin Yehuo frowned. As the Holy Land of Buddhism, the Temple Mountain is naturally full of Buddha statues. There are also Buddha heads placed alone, but what are they worth stealing?"
Feng Meng whispered, "I stole it from the Temple Mount. That day, I found the holy monk holding a box and entering an underground palace in the Temple Mount very carefully at night, so I sneaked in. The holy monk put down the brocade
After picking up the box, I entered the cave with a mysterious man in black. I wanted to eavesdrop, but I stepped on gravel and was discovered. I panicked, stole the box and ran out. There was a head hidden in the box.
I always carry the horned Buddha head with me."
"Where is the Buddha's head?" Zhao Pu asked.
"Later, I took the Buddha head to the southwest, and before sneaking into the White Ghost Palace, I hid the box in a tree hole in the rainforest." Feng Mengting said ruefully, "But then we didn't find the White Ghost Palace, and we wanted to get it back.
The box was attacked by a giant anaconda, and several of the followers were bitten to death by the giant anaconda, and we were also scared away."
"So the Buddha head is still in the tree hole in the rain forest near the White Ghost Palace in the southwest?" Lin Yehuo asked.
All four nodded.
Zhao Pu touched his chin and felt the need to ask his master about this matter.
Just as he was thinking about it, he turned his head... and saw Gongsun in front of him with his phoenix eyes widened. Zhan Zhao and Lin Yehuo were also looking at him with firm faces - Go! Let's go to the White Ghost Palace... No! Check.
Case!
Zhao Pu had no idea and looked at Bai Yutang.
The Fifth Master thought it didn't matter. The White Ghost Palace must have no money, otherwise the "subjects" of the White Ghost clan in his family wouldn't be so poor.
Everyone then thought again and looked at Zhao Pu - so you are so poor, do you follow your master?
The Ninth Prince turned his mouth to the back of his ears - Who is poor? I, the Song Dynasty, have a lot of money!
Thinking of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Pu suddenly told him, "Everything about going to the White Ghost Palace should be kept secret! Don't let... who knows!"
Zhan Zhao and others all tilted their heads. Who are they hiding from? The fourth son?
Zhao Pu rolled his eyes at everyone.
Everyone was happy - of course they wouldn't tell Zhao Zhen!
…
"Haa~"
At this time, in the backyard of the handsome manor, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, who had slept with his wife and daughter for a noon nap, was yawning and stretching, coming out of the room.
When Zhao Zhen went out, the first thing he did was to ask Nangong, "Is there anything new today?"
Nangong's head kept shaking - No! What's new in Black Wind City? All the new things are in Kaifeng Mansion! How about going back to the court tomorrow?
Zhao Zhen ignored him and said he wanted to eat peaches.
Nangong had no idea and ran to find peaches for him.
Zhao Zhen's backyard is connected to a garden. There are many flowers planted in the garden, and there is also a small attic. The place is very quiet. Concubine Pang and the others would sit in it and drink tea on weekdays.
Zhao Zhen stretched and noticed that there seemed to be someone in the attic. He walked forward and found a man wearing a cloak sitting there.
Zhao Zhen felt that he had never seen this figure before, so he walked over curiously and took a look.
The man looked particularly young and handsome, his face seemed a little sad, and he just sat there in a daze.
After Zhao Zhen saw the man's appearance clearly, he came up with two ideas.
First, judging from the overall temperament, this person is probably a peer of Tianzun and his group.
The emperor has experience now. Appearance cannot be used to distinguish the age of martial arts practitioners. Most people of that generation have the same temperament.
Secondly, the emperor felt that this person looked familiar.
Touching his chin, Zhao Zhen stood in the garden and wondered where he had seen this person before...
After a while, Zhao Zhen suddenly remembered that he had seen some portraits before. The master showed him the portraits of several major sinners in the previous dynasty when he was in class in the palace.
A name came to the emperor's mind.
Zhao Zhen immediately ran into the small attic.
Nangong walked into the yard with two peaches and saw Zhao Zhen rushing into the attic. He rushed to a man who was sitting in a daze and pointed at him - An Yunkuo?!
Nangong sighed as he held the peach - An Yunkuo is a sinner through the ages anyway, so it shouldn't matter if he beats the emperor...
After An Yunkuo came back just now, he found a quieter place and sat in a daze.
Suddenly, Zhao Zhen appeared in front of him.
After looking Zhao Zhen up and down, An Yunkuo said, "The sinners of the previous dynasty will not be greeted by the Holy Master."
Zhao Zhen waved his hands cheerfully, meaning - no need, no need, I have long admired your name!
Nangong walked into the attic with the peach and saw Zhao Zhen sitting next to An Yunkuo and asked, "Was General An really wronged back then?"
Nangong actually remembered something... He remembered that when he was a child, Zhao Zhen once listened to the Master's lecture in the study.
When the master told him about the White Ghost King's Northern Expedition, he focused on An Yunkuo, the eternal sinner.
But the strange thing is that after listening, Zhao Zhen suddenly said, "I think An Yunkuo was probably wronged."
The Master was very puzzled at that time.
At that time, Zhao Zhen also made a bet with the guards around him, saying that An Yunkuo would be wronged by betting ten taels of silver.
This happened more than ten years ago.
To be continued...
