Chapter Ten Red Rope

In order to ensure that he could get the answer, Yan Jing did not generally ask the lucky compass to point out the direction of the foreign objects in the lake, but only asked it to point out the relevant clues.

The lucky compass points say it all.

The clues to the foreign objects left behind are in the temple in front of you!

The brief conversation before made Yan Jing aware of the old man's guard against them, so he chose to withdraw first.

It’s not difficult to understand if you think about it carefully.

The high-level government of Xiangong City is controlled by demons. When they choose to erase the information about Chi Kiss on the Internet, they will inevitably attack the places where Chi Kiss is enshrined in Xiangong City. It is natural for them to convert here.

The old man obviously knew something, but he didn’t dare to mention it when faced with two strangers who suddenly came to his door.

Yan Jing really couldn't explain his purpose. He couldn't say that he was looking for treasures related to Chi Kiss, right?

It is better to retreat in order to advance.

Asking Suoman to find a place to wait outside, Yan Jing looked around, stood up, and easily jumped onto the house on one side of the lane.

With his strength, he can actually break in through the front door easily. He could also achieve the goal by directly using the shadow manipulation puppet before. Let the old man tell him everything he knows.

However, doing so violates Yan Jing's principles.

The ever-increasing power can make people feel lost, especially the ability to easily kill and snatch other people's lives. It can become addictive after being used for a long time. Yan Jing asked himself that he didn't want to become those guys who thought they could manipulate ordinary people after becoming extraordinary.

Standing on the roof about ten meters above the ground, Yan Jing had a panoramic view of the scene behind the main entrance of the temple with his excellent eyesight.

The temples opened in Gray Mist District 7, even in the "bustling" area of ​​this city, are extremely limited in scale.

This Tianyao Temple is just a main hall and front and rear courtyards.

The front yard and main hall are no different from what you imagined. They are the layout of an ordinary temple. There are incense burners and candle holders in the yard. It seems that the incense is quite strong. Apparently many people come to worship.

Although Yan Jing had no idea why those people were worshiping demons.

Because the main hall was blocked by a roof, it was difficult to see the situation inside clearly. Yan Jing did not intend to sneak in immediately. Instead, he left the roof where he was currently standing and landed on the courtyard wall surrounding the temple. He lowered the height to observe the situation inside the main hall.

.

Unexpectedly lively!

Earlier, the old man was still at the door saying that it was past the time for worship, but now Yan Jing saw many people in the main hall. Judging from the appearance, they were not much different from the people he met on the road earlier. Most of them were in ragged clothes and looked a little tired.

age.

They were each sitting on the floor, holding porcelain bowls in their hands and drinking something. Yan Jing noticed that the old man and a young man were walking around with dinner plates, as if they were distributing food.

This made Yan Jing glad that he had not acted rashly before, otherwise it would have been difficult for him not to reveal his secret when so many people came in.

After observing them for a while and confirming that they had no unusual behavior, Yan Jing chose to follow the guidance of the lucky compass and set his sights on the backyard.

Under the cover of the heavy rain, Yan Jing easily stepped on the courtyard wall and climbed to the roof of the main hall.

The situation in the backyard was somewhat beyond his expectation.

Unlike the clean and tidy front yard, the backyard looks a bit messy. There are a lot of ropes connected to the courtyard wall and the back of the main hall. They are not clotheslines, but light red braided ropes.

What's more important is that there are all kinds of weird objects hanging on these ropes at regular intervals.

What Yan Jing saw at a glance were small objects such as wooden hairpins, hairpins, and bead strings. There were even many small wooden signs and folded paper cranes.

These things were obviously not made by one person. They looked like they were hung by pilgrims who came to worship. Yan Jing couldn't help but think of some blessing trees he had seen in his previous life.

It’s just that this method is too shabby, why not just plant a tree?

However, thinking about the environment around the temple, Yan Jing realized that his idea was somewhat unrealistic. It would be crazy if a tree could be planted in a place like this where the sun never shines all year round.

Looking through the gaps between the red rope and the numerous debris, Yan Jing's eyes finally landed on the small ancestral hall that only covered an area of ​​a few square meters in the center of the backyard. There seemed to be something placed inside, and it didn't look like it was inhabited by humans.

place.

Look down at the lucky compass in your hand, the pointer is facing it!

Yan Jing didn't hesitate, he saw the right spot and jumped down, easily passed through the gap between the red ropes, and landed directly in front of the ancestral hall.

Even though the effect of the spiritual vision had long since dissipated, Yan Jing could still feel the water spiritual power surging in the air. Looking at the rainwater flowing outside the ancestral hall, he raised his hand and waved it aside, easily driving it aside. He reached out and opened the door on the front of the temple.

Wooden doors, or wooden windows.

Hu Ying, who had been following him from the beginning, jumped forward two steps, a tentacle extended from his body, and white light was released from the top, illuminating the scene inside.

As expected, what is stored here is a statue of Chi Kiss!

What's more important is that unlike the previously seen roofs of buildings outside that were severely eroded by years of wind and rain, the one in front of you is obviously carefully crafted and regularly cleaned and maintained.

This alone is enough to prove that the old man only converted on the surface, but actually hid the real statue of Chi Kiss.

This trip was right.

"Who are you! Why do you appear here?"

While Yan Jing was observing the statue, people in the main hall also noticed the light in the backyard, and the old man immediately ran out and asked.

At this time, Yan Jing had no intention of hiding it. Now that he had found what he wanted, he naturally had to find a way to get the relevant clues out of the other party's mouth.

However, just as he opened his mouth, a vigorous figure suddenly jumped out from behind the old man, flew in front of Yan Jing and raised his hand to capture him.

Yan Jing's eyes fell on the other person's face through the rain curtain.

The light was dim, and I could barely make out a woman with a cross-shaped scar under her left eye.

Realizing that there was no killing intention in the other party's actions, Yan Jing was not in a hurry to take action. When he was outside the temple, Yan Jing had seen the back of the man in front of him. He was the man who followed the old man to distribute food.

Dodging the opponent's attack, Yan Jing was surprised by the strength and speed displayed by the man in front of him.

Judging from her body shape, she should be an ordinary person, but her movements were no worse than those of the transformed half-demon, at least at the level of a demon warrior. This made Yan Jing somewhat surprised.

Also surprised was the woman who was fighting Yan Jing. She also didn't expect that the intruder's movements were so agile. Not only could he easily dodge his own attacks, but he also clearly had a lot of room for action.

, couldn’t help but ask again,

"Who on earth are you!"

"I'm here for Chi Kiss... Hehe, you should know that the big shots in heaven probably don't like to see it in the gray fog area!"

Yan Jing, who originally wanted to explain, changed his words temporarily and deliberately showed hostility, hoping to test the other party's reaction.

"It turns out that he is a lackey of heaven, helping demons to oppress his fellow humans, he should be killed!"

Hearing Yan Jing's words, the woman's expression immediately changed, she suddenly stepped back and jumped away, landing on the ground and taking a posture, her words were filled with coldness.

As soon as she finished speaking, an unusual aura surged around the woman.

Yan Jing raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes suddenly turned to the red rope above his head.

Those shabby objects hanging everywhere.

At this moment, there was a faint flicker of light!
