Chapter 206 Is there anything else?
There are countless Taoist temples, Buddhist temples, and sects inside and outside Shenluo City. After thousands of years of rise and fall, they have basically formed a stable inheritance.
In this small area in the south of the city, there is only one Taoist temple, namely the "Nancheng Temple".
The name of the temple clearly points out that the south of the city is our territory.
Due to various objective reasons, the scale of Nancheng Temple has always been small. In this generation, there are only two or three elders and a dozen younger generations.
Although this small area in the south of the city is one of the few slums in Shenluo City, it is the only Taoist temple of his, and it makes a living by doing things like exorcising evil spirits, praying for blessings, and feng shui, so it is quite stable.
The abbot of Nancheng Temple in this generation is named Du.
His name is Dulank.
Taoist Priest Du is extremely tall, with long arms and legs and a dark complexion, and looks like a legendary strange man.
One day, Taoist Master Du was sitting cross-legged in meditation in the temple when he suddenly heard a disciple outside the temple come to report.
"Master, Master, something terrible has happened!"
"Hmm?" Taoist Du opened his eyes, slightly displeased, and asked, "What happened?"
"There's a new Taoist temple just down the street!" The young disciple looked very sad. "Our reputation as the best Taoist temple in the south of the city is about to be lost!"
"Nonsense!" Taoist Priest Du shouted angrily, "Does anyone dare to bully us? First, tell me, what's the situation of that Taoist temple?"
"Uh... no... I don't know." The young disciple shrank his neck. "When I went out this morning, I suddenly found a Taoist temple there with a plaque hung up. I hurried back to report it."
In his simple understanding, the reason why his small Taoist temple ranked first in the south of the city was because there was only one Taoist temple in this poor place.
Naturally, I felt like the sky was falling.
"What's the name?"
"What's it called... De... Deyun Temple."
"Humph!" Taoist Priest Du flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly, "It doesn't sound like a decent place."
After thinking for a while, he suddenly stood up and said to the disciple beside him: "Go and find all your brothers."
The young disciple asked timidly, "Master, do you want to have a fight with them?"
Taoist Priest Du sneered, "Haha, since they dare to open a Taoist temple in our Nancheng Temple's territory, we must test its depth."
…
After several days of intensive decoration, the house has begun to take shape as a Taoist temple.
The front hall was originally empty, and all that was needed was to build an altar and place the golden statue on it.
A merit box was placed in the front hall, and a gold-painted plaque was hung outside the door, with the four large characters "Deyun Fenguan" shining brightly.
Once the door is opened, we can welcome guests from all directions.
Then……
After a whole day...
Only a cold wind blew by, blowing fallen leaves.
“Why isn’t anyone coming…” The fox girl knelt on the mat next to Li Chu and pouted.
"It's normal because we are not famous here. Once we become famous, people will naturally come." Li Chu said calmly.
"Then how can we become famous?" asked the fox girl.
"Once you successfully exorcise evil spirits for others, you will become famous." Li Chu replied.
“But no one comes to us to exorcise evil spirits…” said the fox girl.
"This is normal because we are not famous." Li Chu said calmly.
"Then..." The fox girl hesitated to speak.
When the door was closed at night, the fox girl said again: "No pilgrims came today."
"Aren't all Taoist temples like this?" Li Chu looked at her strangely.
When Deyun Temple was not yet famous, it was common for no one to visit for three to five days, and this has been the case for more than ten years.
Today's deserted environment made him feel as if his youth had returned.
When night falls and the door is closed, it's time to prepare to do another embarrassing thing.
Li Chu moved a chair into the yard and sat down quietly.
In the past few days he has figured out the frequency of ghosts spawning in the well, usually two a day, occasionally one a day. When there is only one, the experience points given will be more, generally speaking it's about the same.
Of course, it is normal to miss a day occasionally. After all, everyone has some problems, which can be understood.
Um.
But today is slightly different.
Just as he closed his eyes and waited for the ghost in the well to appear, he suddenly noticed a black shadow climbing into the yard.
Li Chu opened his eyes, and there was no one in sight.
But if you examine with your heart, you can see it clearly.
A figure slowly approached the well and threw something into it. The yin energy in the well instantly became ten times thicker.
Then, the figure did not leave, but quietly retreated behind the beams in the courtyard and hid.
This figure was no one else but a disciple from the Nancheng Temple in front, who was sent by Taoist Du to test the depth of this Deyun branch temple.
Of course, you can't test someone's depth with real weapons.
It just so happened that Taoist Du knew that there was a well here where ghosts appeared every night, so he ordered his disciples to come here and do some tricks.
But he specifically told his disciples that they could not leave after finishing their work.
This is because the ghost in the well will become stronger. If the people in the Taoist temple are really weak and suddenly cannot cope with it, they may lose their lives.
So he ordered this disciple to stay here and to help immediately if any accident happened.
This disciple was carrying an invisibility talisman that could conceal his presence, but his talisman was not of a high level, and not only could it not conceal his aura, it couldn't even conceal his footsteps.
So at this time Li Chu kept his mind and tracked him all the way until he finished doing these things.
It is quite funny to see a person who thinks he is invisible but can actually be seen clearly, doing things tiptoeingly.
Just as he was about to step forward and ask about the man's whereabouts, the yin energy in the well suddenly boiled over.
The ghost appeared!
The difference is that the ghost that appeared this time gathered the already very strong Yin energy in the well and became very powerful! It was as strong as... hundreds of lantern monsters!
boom--
A giant ghost with a green face and fangs crawled out of the well, its body as elastic as a cat crawling into a cup of water.
The gloomy and menacing spirit!
Then……
Li Chu absentmindedly drew out the Chunyang Sword and swung it casually.
boom--
The sun was shining brightly, and a red dragon was in the world. Such a scene flashed by.
The gloomy energy that had been filling the courtyard was suddenly swept away. After the ghost appeared, it didn't even have a chance to say a word before it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
“Hmm…”
The disciple from Nancheng Temple suddenly covered his mouth and forced himself not to scream.
this……
What I saw...
He couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that his master sent him here to test the skill first instead of coming up and drawing his sword right away.
This guy... is so deep! Then, just when he wanted to go back and report to his master, he saw Li Chu walking towards him.
The disciple's heart tightened and he thought to himself, it's just a coincidence that he can't see me.
Then Li Chu stood in front of him.
Danger! He looked at Li Chu, and Li Chu looked at him.
A streak of cold sweat ran across his forehead.
In a hurry, he held up the magic seal with both hands, pressed it against his temple, and shouted: "You can't see me... You can't see me..."
Pop.
Li Chu raised his hand and tore off the invisibility talisman on his chest.
"Oh my god——"
The disciple was startled and sat back down.
Li Chu looked at him with interest and asked directly, "What did you throw into the well just now that could make that ghost so strong?"
"..." The disciple from Nancheng Temple blinked and couldn't help but feel frightened.
He came to plot against someone secretly and was caught red-handed. He felt as if a doomsday star was shining over his head.
"It's the Ju Yin Pill..." he whispered, and quickly added: "It's not used to harm people, it's used to feed the ghosts I raise... I just happened to use it once..."
But this is not what Li Chu cares about.
His eyes were full of brilliance, and he asked slowly, "Anything else?"
