Chapter 112 Soul Locking Formation
"Why can't I go in?" Jiang Yunxi was a little surprised. She didn't expect that she would be stopped outside the Thirteenth Temple because of what happened that night?
She couldn't think of anything else except this.
"The abbot has said that you cannot enter the Thirteen Temples, lest you cause more trouble." The Taoist nun said coldly. There was a lot of noise that night, and she had been guarding the door the whole time.
Of course I have seen her.
I didn’t expect that she came to Shisanguan again. What does she want to do tonight?
There is something going on in the Taoist temple tonight, so she can't be allowed in.
Jiang Yunxi smiled. "The Thirteen Temples are open to the public and accept incense burning and prayers from all the people. You have no right to prevent me from entering."
The implication was that she had to go in tonight.
Seeing that she insisted on going in, the Taoist nun looked at the Taoist nun opposite and motioned her to go in and tell the master of the temple. She was worried that she could not stop her.
The Taoist nun understood and quickly walked into the Taoist temple.
"There's something going on at the Taoist temple tonight and it's not open to the public," the Taoist nun said coldly.
"Didn't someone just go in?" Jiang Yunxi poked his head inside and looked inside. It was quite quiet and there were indeed no people coming to burn incense.
"They were invited by the temple master, so of course they can come in." The Taoist nun said proudly. Those three people were disciples of the Tianji Sect and were not comparable to her.
"What if I must go in?" Zhan Beiyuan took out a token representing royal status from his arms, with the word "Han" on it.
The Taoist nun was stunned when she saw the golden token clearly. She recognized the royal pattern, which was usually seen on notices posted by government offices.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the King of Cold."
They heard yesterday that King Han had come to Jiangzhou to investigate the deaths of people at the dam some time ago. They didn't expect him to come to Shisanguan.
"Do you still want to stop me?" Zhan Beiyuan had a vicious look on his face and his tone was cold.
"Lord Han, it's not that I won't let you in. Thirteen Temples are indeed not receiving anyone tonight. The abbot has asked someone from Tianji Sect to handle some matters."
"Why don't you wait a moment? I just sent someone in to ask for instructions." The Taoist nun thought for a while and said.
She didn't dare let them in without permission.
Zhan Beiyuan snorted coldly and stepped in directly with a murderous aura.
Jiang Yunxi followed.
Taoist nun:"……"
Does she dare to stop it?
Of course I wouldn’t dare.
Jiang Yunxi took Zhan Beiyuan and walked directly towards the lotus pond. Although she had only been there once, she remembered the way. At this time, the Taoist temple was brightly lit.
Soon a group of people came towards us.
"Who allowed you to come in?" an older Taoist nun shouted sternly.
"I came in by myself." Zhan Beiyuan said in a deep voice, his eyes as sharp as a knife, and there was an oppressive feeling around him that could not be ignored.
"His name is Zhan Beiyuan, the King of Cold of Tenglong Country. Doesn't he have the qualifications to come in?" Jiang Yunxi had an expression of watching a show.
Jingxin was stunned for a moment, then quickly stepped forward. King Han was very famous in Tenglong Country and was almost a household name. In addition, it was heard that he had come to Jiangzhou.
Naturally, no one would pretend to be him at this time.
"Jingxin greets His Royal Highness Prince Han." Jingxin saluted respectfully.
The Taoist nuns behind her followed suit and saluted.
"Why don't you let Jiang Yunxi into the Thirteenth View? Why aren't you open to the public tonight?" Zhan Beiyuan got straight to the point.
Jingxin glanced at Jiang Yunxi and said seriously, "She caused trouble in the Taoist temple that night, so the temple master ordered her not to enter. As for not opening the temple to the public tonight, it's because they have a ritual going on."
"I'm here to look for my great-grandmother's soul, not to cause trouble. I also want to ask you why you imprisoned my great-grandmother's soul in the lotus pond." Jiang Yunxi asked coldly.
"We don't know about this. Maybe someone threw her soul in there." Jingxin said lightly. They really didn't know.
As for the soul-locking formation in the lotus pond, ordinary people don’t know about it, but some people in the Xuanmen sect know about it, and it is inevitable that some people will throw their souls into it.
"Since it has nothing to do with your Taoist temple, you have no right to stop me from looking for the soul of my great-grandmother." Jiang Yunxi said coldly.
"I stopped you because I was afraid you would get into trouble." Jingxin answered calmly.
Jiang Yunxi smiled and said, "Are you afraid that I will release all the souls imprisoned in the Soul Locking Formation?"
Jingxin was not surprised to hear her say this. She had brought out a soul from there that night. "Yes, those are evil spirits with grudges. They will hurt people when they come out."
"You invited people from Tianji Sect, and plan to have them eliminate all the souls in the soul-locking formation tonight?" Jiang Yunxi guessed their intention.
"Yes." Jingxin did not deny it. There was no need to deny it now.
King Han is here.
He insisted on knowing, they couldn't hide it.
The Thirteen Temples were built with funds from the royal family, who also allocated funds to the Taoist temples every year.
"Let's go and take a look." Jiang Yunxi looked up at the man beside him.
"Why don't you lead the way?" Zhan Beiyuan said majestically.
"Yes." Jingxin replied and led them towards the lotus pond.
When they arrived.
There was no one there except Gu Zhoubai, Xu Changfeng, Xu Wanwan, and the temple master, but no other Taoist nuns.
Jingxin brought them to the back and signaled everyone else to disperse.
She quickly walked towards the temple master and told her Zhan Beiyuan's identity.
"The abbot of the Thirteenth Temple, Jingxuan, greets His Royal Highness Prince Han." Jingxuan quickly stepped forward and saluted respectfully, then glanced at Jiang Yunxi. He didn't expect that she was someone close to Prince Han.
Gu Zhoubai and the other two were stunned. The man they had met once during the day turned out to be King Han.
When they saw him at that time, they could tell that he must be of extraordinary status. After all, not everyone has that innate nobility.
I just didn’t expect that he was a member of the royal family, and Zhan Beiyuan.
They had never seen him before, but they had heard of him.
"What are you doing here?" Zhan Beiyuan asked in a deep voice.
"Reporting to King Han, there is a soul-locking formation in the Thirteenth Monastery, filled with evil spirits carrying grievances. The Thirteenth Monastery has asked the people of the Tianji Sect to deal with these evil spirits to prevent them from escaping and harming others."
Jingxuan reported truthfully.
She has always wanted to get rid of the souls in the soul-locking formation to avoid any accidents. Some time ago, she always felt that there were fluctuations in the soul-locking formation and was afraid of accidents.
So she found Tianji Sect and asked them to help deal with those souls.
"What's going on with the Soul-Locking Formation?" Zhan Beiyuan asked with a frown. He guessed that this was also what Jiang Yunxi wanted to know.
"When the Thirteen Temples were first built, a soul-locking formation was set up to suppress those evil spirits with resentment and prevent them from harming people outside," Jingxuan said.
Jiang Yunxi thought of what Hu Xinghua had said, that the Thirteen Temples were rebuilt after the fire. "Are those resentful ghosts the people who died in that fire decades ago?"
"Yes, many people died in the fire back then. Later, when Jiangzhou was being rebuilt, strange things kept happening. We invited a master here and found out that there were many evil spirits with grudges and strong desires for revenge. In the end, we decided to build a soul-locking formation in the Thirteen Temples to suppress them."
Jingxuan explained that the Thirteenth Temple was responsible for guarding the Soul-Locking Formation. That night, the woman pulled a soul out of the Soul-Locking Formation, so she was on guard against her.
