Chapter 519: The News From the Holy Temple Is Really Not Well-Informed

When he was very young, Li Qing found that he had five shadows.

The adults said that this was normal, everyone had a shadow.

But Li Qing found that other children only had one, and they could not exchange bodies with their shadows.

The adults told him: "One shadow is mediocre, the more shadows you have, the more outstanding your talent is. Don't suppress them, let them release it."

As long as he could remember, Li Qing lived in a high castle in the water.

There was everything in the high castle, a place to eat, a place to bathe, a place to play, a place to sleep... There were adults in the big high castle who were responsible for helping them, and the adults in the temple would visit the children here regularly.

Li Qing had never left the high castle before he became an adult.

There were no ships under the high castle, and there were huge monsters in the vast water. If you couldn't master the secret technique, you couldn't go out of the high castle.

All the children living in the high castle were the same.

[Black Temple] was the master of the high castle, and they were servants and followers of [Black Tiger Head and Lord of the Temple].

The power of the Lord of the Temple spreads across countless worlds. What the servants of the Temple have to do is to worship this god and absorb people from all worlds to become members of the Temple.

When the Lord of the Temple wakes up from the sleeping town, the servants of the gods in all worlds will offer praises for the return of this god.

Children like Li Qing were adopted and bought by the Temple since childhood and trained to be the most loyal servants of the gods in the High Castle.

The High Castle is a small kingdom with dozens of children living in it, both boys and girls, and they are very close in age. Different children have different personalities, but there are also small groups between them, and they are close to each other.

Li Qing is one of the few who is completely disliked by all parties.

Every time he wants to play wooden sword games with other children and play ghost catching people, he will be opposed and rejected.

"You can't join."

"No one wants to play with you."

"Stay away from me, go away."

"Don't bother us."

...

His peers are afraid of him.

Because Li Qing has five shadows, these shadows often exchange identities with Li Qing. Each of them is completely different, although they all have Li Qing's appearance.

Li Qing cannot meet them face to face, but by leaving messages on paper, he can also know their names and what they have done.

The five shadows are Li Chi, Li Cheng, Li Huang, Li Lu, and Li Qing.

Li Chi is irritable by nature, with the ferocity and lethality of a beast. He will definitely bleed when he strikes. The one that others fear the most is Li Chi.

Li Cheng is dull and autistic, and looks like he has dementia. He reacts very slowly and often sinks into his own world and cannot hear the outside world.

Li Huang is impatient. He moves and speaks very quickly. Because his mind jumps too much, people often cannot understand him.

Li Lu is the smartest. He can always find places that the other people are not aware of. For example, the five shadows are each other's shadows, and they will appear alternately in specific environments.

When faced with danger or conflict, Li Chi will take action.

If a person is alone, Li Qing gradually becomes Li Cheng.

When there is a task or order to be executed, Li Huang will automatically show up.

Moments to learn and use the brain are basically the domain of Li Lu.

As for Li Qing, he acts as a mediocre background board.

When others return to shadows, he will act.

Therefore, for Li Qing, every day is often intermittent.

He just got up from bed, folded the quilt and went to perform the secret ritual, and then it was suddenly noon. His fists were covered with wounds and his left eye was swollen and couldn't open.

He only knew it after hearing from the adults. It turned out that Li Huang had a conflict with several children when performing the secret technique, and Li Chi fought with them. One child was beaten with blood in his mouth and lost several teeth, and Li Chi was also injured.

In the eyes of other peers, Li Qing is a monster.

But in the eyes of the adults in the temple, Li Qing is a promising talent.

"If you want to truly understand the mysteries of all things, you must enter complete madness. The tearing and confusion of the self is a kind of talent that you can't ask for, which will make you better understand the secrets and forbidden spells!"

"You must learn to listen to and perceive the voice of the gods, the Lord of the Temple is staring at you."

The loyalty and praise of the Temple, the fear and disgust of the same kind, became a sharp double-edged sword, making it increasingly difficult for Li Qing to distinguish who he is and what he wants.

Life is moving forward in leaps and bounds day by day.

At the age of thirteen, Li Qing was sent to the Temple to pray and kneel to the statue of [Black Tiger Head and Lord of the Temple] and offer his blood.

After officially completing the coming-of-age ceremony, he will also perform tasks as a member of the Temple.

Li Qing's first task is to return to the High Castle where he lives and complete the waste cleaning.

For the Temple, if a child who has been trained since childhood cannot show talent by the age of thirteen, it is an inferior product that needs to be destroyed, and there is no need to waste any resources to feed it.

There are 41 children in the High Castle category, and only 4 of them were finally recognized by the Temple.

Li Qing was covered in blood when he came out of the high castle.

During the whole operation, he was only responsible for chanting the scriptures in the temple.

"Holy Word, when the golden wheel keeps turning and the black tiger head roars, everything in the world will disappear into thin air"

It was Li Lu who set the trap.

It was Li Cheng who lured the target.

It was Li Chi who killed the target.

It was Li Huang who cleaned up the mess.

And Li Qing didn't have to do anything.

Just like the message Li Lu left him.

"You just need to be a good person. You are the face and the connection. We don't trust each other, we only trust you."

The tasks given to him by the Black Temple are usually assassination, poisoning and kidnapping. It is difficult for people to associate a teenager with a skilled killer.

In order to keep his identity as secret as possible, the Temple rarely lets Li Qing perform tasks in the local [Mystic Kingdom].

His mission targets are usually merchants and dignitaries in the Twin Snake Merchant Republic, and occasionally deal with some difficult people in the [Wind Realm] and [Warrior Kingdom].

Li Qing rarely fails.

He has a good habit of clearing his mission memory regularly.

This will reduce a lot of troubles.

Li Qing specializes in [Memory Clearing Technique], which is a secret method used for interrogation, and he has practiced it very well.

But this also caused a huge trouble later.

...

Li Qing woke up in Qianyuan Mountain, and he didn't remember what happened to him at all.

In the previous fragment of memory, Li Qing was still at the altar of the Temple in the Mystic Kingdom, but now he came here.

He learned from the doctor of Qianyuan Mountain that he was sent here by Bai Mu, the Golden-Eyed Silver Dragon.

Bai Mu was a disciple of Master Yanye of Qianyuan Mountain.

Later, after being assassinated and poisoned by the people of the Black Temple when he went down the mountain, Li Qing pieced together what happened before: in a secret sacrifice, the Lord of the Temple appeared and sent down the holy object. The scene seemed to be solidified by some powerful force, and almost everyone could not move.

The secret photo showed very clearly that in the end, Li Qing took the holy object and fled.

This sounds very absurd.

Li Qing admitted that he had seriously thought about leaving the Black Temple. He also did an investigation and asked the other four shadows to see what everyone thought.

Li Chi said it didn't matter.

Li Cheng had no opinion.

Li Huang felt that he had to move faster and switch to a large organization of similar size to avoid being liquidated.

Li Lu thought the time was not right.

Everyone was still in the same direction.

It was not advisable to stay in the Black Temple for a long time.

But in the end, he followed Li Lu's opinion and waited for an opportunity in secret.

Under such circumstances, Li Qing really couldn't understand why he suddenly took the holy object and ran away. He didn't have anything that looked like a treasure on him.

When Bai Mu found Li Qing, he was lying unconscious beside a stream in the mountains outside the Resurrection Kingdom. A strange yellow snake with a vague face was entangled with him, as if it was about to feast on him.

The Golden Eyed Silver Dragon, who saw injustice, fought against the yellow snake monster, but found that the opponent was extremely powerful. Fortunately, the mobile fortress [Hound] of the Resurrection Kingdom arrived to help.

The White Bone Mage Tower opened fire at full power, and subsequent reinforcements arrived, and the monster retreated.

After that, the Golden Eyed Silver Dragon sent Li Qing to the Resurrection Kingdom, but the local white bone doctor failed to wake him up. Later, Li Mu asked someone to send Li Qing back to Qianyuan Mountain. The medical department of Qianyuan Mountain University has rich experience in diagnosis and treatment.

After treatment and rescue by the medical department, Li Qing finally regained consciousness.

The doctor told him: "It is a coma caused by strong suffocation. You may experience some phenomena such as loss of balance, dizziness and headache. It will take a long time to recover."

In the process of slowly recovering, Li Qing also fell into thinking.

Although he didn't know what happened, it seemed to be a great opportunity to get rid of the Black Temple.

This is the world of the Yao clan, the kingdom of God shrouded by the might of the Yao God.

Li Qing quickly adjusted his direction and wanted to enter Qianyuan Mountain University to obtain an identity recognized by the Yao clan.

However, such a major event in life requires everyone's consent.

The result was a unanimous vote of consent.

So, relying on the strength of five people, Li Qing successfully completed the entrance examination and was able to officially stay in Qianyuan Mountain to practice and study.

There are two legends circulating in the Jinguan Cave of Qianyuan Mountain.

One is the direct confrontation between the giant Dharma image of Fahai and the sword in the pool of Taixi. To this day, many people still talk about it with relish, arguing about which one is the strongest on the surface of Qianyuan Mountain.

The second is the mysterious bearded guest Huang Jia, a man who is considered to be close to God, who almost destroyed the confidence of the entire Qianyuan Mountain monks by himself.

His sudden appearance and disappearance have attracted countless imaginations in later generations. Many people firmly believe that Huang Jia may be practicing somewhere in Qianyuan Mountain. When he finds that the disciples of Jinguang Cave are arrogant again, he will teach them a lesson.

Li Qing admires the legendary Huang Jia very much, and he can't help but learn how to dress. He also started to grow a beard and further train his body.

This is a dressing style in Yao Country, called Qiu Ran Feng, and many men and women like this kind of style.

Due to his excellent grades, Li Qing received a reward from Jishan Lord in his first year of enrollment, and obtained a precious gene sequence activation agent, which allowed him to safely activate the gene sequence.

The triggering of the gene sequence made Li Qing realize for the first time that a person has five shadows, which does not mean that he is a monster, but is really a special talent.

If each shadow is strengthened in its own direction, and eventually everyone merges into one, it will be a very amazing and powerful individual.

After the gene sequence is activated, the talents of the five shadows are fully displayed.

Li Chi is keen and enthusiastic about swordsmanship.

Li Cheng can patiently participate in the tedious and repetitive operations and applications of the medical department.

Li Huang's leap-forward thinking and foresight are extremely important qualities in the military preparation department.

Li Lu is like a fish in water in the traditional subject of martial arts training, mastering a lot of basic knowledge and absorbing the valuable experience left by the Yao clan in the extraordinary path for hundreds of years.

As for Li Qing.

As usual.

He is responsible for being a good person.

In fact, it is not easy to be a good person. Li Qing encountered many setbacks in the High Castle in the past, because the five shadows are unique in the Black Temple.

To be a good person, you must be indomitable and strong, and have a good mentality.

However, there is no such trouble in Qianyuan Mountain.

The students here include the Lantern Clan with crystal heads and metal bodies, the White Bone Ancestors who can use bones to combine their bodies, the Tree People who are born tall and have vigorous life, the War Cats who can switch between cat and human forms, and the Dragonborn with dragon power... On the contrary, the only two ordinary students often worry about not having special talents and laugh at themselves.

Everyone has the power of monsters and is proud of it.

Li Qing's situation is ordinary among the students.

He thought.

This may be why everyone wants to come to the world of the Yao Clan and want to follow the God Yao.

The happy life in college passed by like a snap of the fingers, and graduation soon arrived.

Although Li Qing was reluctant, he also knew that he had to face the Black Temple.

He couldn't hide in Qianyuan Mountain all his life.

Long ago, the people of the Black Temple had appeared at the foot of Qianyuan Mountain.

Li Qing now knew that even the [Messengers of the Gods] of the [Secret Arts Kingdom] were respectful to God Yao - this represented the difference in status and power.

He didn't know what the lost treasure was, which made the people of the Temple take the risk of exposing their identities and being punished by God, and bite themselves to death.

Li Qing was ready to find out the truth.

...

Facing the Black Temple assassins who were blocking him at the foot of the mountain, Li Qing sighed: "I don't know what you are talking about."

One after another, secret arts and forbidden spells were already calling him.

Fireball, ice cone, wind blade... blocked every retreat of Li Qing.

Li Qing switched to Li Chi.

The cover on the wide sword box on his back suddenly popped open, and four sword lights flew out from it.

One was as hot as fire.

One was cold and chilly.

One was scarlet and sticky.

A yellow-brown toughness.

Li Chi's eyes showed an excited smile: "Killing you in self-defense is not against the laws of the Yao Kingdom."

"Die for me!"

Four elemental magic swords turned into four-color sword lights, piercing through the killers one by one at a time.

The people cut by the fire magic sword were burned and charred, and the pain was unbearable; the ice magic sword pierced through the bones and flesh, making it difficult for people to move.

The earth magic sword was powerful and heavy, and the wounded would be like being hit by a thousand-pound blunt weapon and their internal organs would be shattered; the blood magic sword was bloodthirsty and spread, nourishing blood with blood, and draining people's blood and turning them into dry corpses.

The magic sword killed people everywhere, and Li Qing was also covered by the enemy's secret technique.

The killer did not try or hold back, only life and death.

The dust cleared.

Li Chi was basically unscathed, but the enemy only had one sorcerer left alive, and the other party was shocked.

"...You were clearly hit, why are you not injured at all?"

"Impossible, impossible..."

In response to the other party's doubts, Li Chi grabbed the other party's throat and pointed to the thick white lining in his damaged coat: "You are really not well-informed about the news in the Holy Hall. I don't know if the outstanding students of Qianyuan Mountain are protected by paper armor?"

"I specially stacked three layers of armor, which is enough to respect you."

The sorcerer's eyes were a little confused.

"I forgot...paper armor belongs to the control type armor, it's normal that you don't know. Forget it, I'm not good at interrogating this matter, Li Lu, get to work."

Li Chi's eyes changed, and the previous sharpness suddenly disappeared, and his eyes became deep and unpredictable.

A smile appeared on Li Lu's face.

"Now, I'll ask you something... If you answer well, nothing will happen today. I won't make it difficult for you. You're all executors here, and I understand."

"But if you don't want to cooperate, I can only send you to the Yancheng Public Security Bureau. Ask them to check whether the Black Templar wants to subvert the belief in God, and infiltrate and instigate at the national and civilizational levels..."
