Chapter 893: Jialan Temple on a Rainy Night

Styx region.

One of the Thirteen Realms of the Six Realms of the Netherworld.

The Bloody River of Sin and the City of Death, which have been regarded as dangerous forbidden areas from ancient times to the present, are both distributed in this vast and vast territory.

The climate of the Styx River Region is extremely harsh, and the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth is mixed and chaotic. It is also regarded as the "Realm of Sin".

The reason is that in this vast territory, demons are rampant and evil forces are flourishing.

Southeast of the Styx River Region, Thousand Snake Mountain.

As night approached, the sky was overcast with clouds, the thunder was turbulent, and suddenly a torrential rain poured down.

The rain was coming quickly, mixed with a faint sinister aura.

Halfway up Qian Snake Mountain, there is a temple, which has long been abandoned and overgrown with weeds.

At this time, a bonfire was burning in the hall.

The light of the fire dispelled the darkness and reflected on the walls on both sides of the hall. It was clearly visible that the pictures of Buddha were originally painted on the walls.

But perhaps due to the age, those wall paintings are dilapidated and faded.

In the center of the main hall, a clay Buddha statue is enshrined.

The Buddha statue has three heads and six arms, sitting cross-legged on a lotus platform, with a majestic appearance.

However, the Buddha statue had already been seriously damaged, and even some of its arms were broken.

Beside the bonfire, Su Yi sat in a wicker chair and looked outside the hall.

In the ancient temple in the wilderness, it rains heavily at night, and occasionally there is a dull thunder, which shakes the heaven and the earth and makes the mountains and rivers rustle.

The heavy rain hit the eaves, and there was a dense crashing sound. The mountain wind blew in, making the window lattice of the hall creak.

Youxue stood at the side of the main hall, staring at the collapsed and faded Buddha murals.

The girl has a loose bun, a leisurely manner, a slender waist and a slim neck. She wears a plain long skirt. Her facial features are delicate and elegant. When her eyebrows are looking forward, she has an innate majesty.

After a while, Youxue looked back and said softly: "Fellow Taoist, the Buddha in these portraits should be the rumored 'Eighteen Kalam Protector God', right?"

While talking, she walked directly to the bonfire on Su Yi's side and sat casually on a futon.

"good."

Su Yi nodded, "In the Styx River Region, every three hundred miles, there must be a Jialan Temple, and the Buddhist Jialan Buddha statue is enshrined in the temple."

"A long time ago, the Buddhist power of Jialan Temple was a veritable top-level Taoist tradition. When those Buddhist cultivators entered Jialan Temple to practice, they all made great aspirations. They vowed not to become a Buddha until hell was empty, and they were determined to level the Styx. of demons and ghosts, and bring peace to the world."

"It's a pity that as early as when I was traveling in the Nether World, I heard that Jialan Temple suffered a catastrophic disaster and disappeared from the world."

Speaking of this, Su Yi took a sip of wine and said, "In the years since Jialan Temple, the Styx River Region has gradually become a place where evil forces are entrenched and a world dominated by evil people. Until now, this situation has not changed. .”

Youxue couldn't help but be surprised, "Since Jialan Temple is the top Taoist tradition, what kind of disaster should it suffer before it is destroyed in the world?"

Su Yi said: "It is said that Jialan Temple originally planned to destroy the City of Fusi, but on a night of the Lantern Festival, it was attacked by various strange and terrifying forces and was destroyed."

Youxue was startled and said: "Wishi City was one of the most vicious forbidden places in the Netherworld as early as the ancient times. Jialan Temple actually tried to destroy Wushou City. This is really..."

For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

Su Yi said: "You know you can't do something but do it. If you succeed, you are called brave, if you fail, you are called stupid. In any case, although Jialan Temple has been destroyed long ago, they once vowed to eradicate evil spirits in the world and took actions to do it. Only with this A little bit, it’s still worthy of admiration.”

Youxue nodded.

A Buddhist sect takes it as its own duty to eradicate evil spirits and help the people of the world. This is indeed something that no one can help but admire.

"However, although the power of Jialan Temple has been destroyed long ago, the temples they originally built in the Styx River region are still protecting living beings all over the world."

Su Yi said, "In the past years, whenever late at night came, if you encountered a disaster or ominous danger, you only needed to hide in the Jialan Temple, and you could often turn the disaster into a good one."

Youxue was surprised: "Why is this?"

Su Yi smiled and said: "This is the wonderful effect of all sentient beings' wishes. A long time ago, Jialan Temple was revered and respected by all living beings in the Styx River Region. The worldly people all regarded Jialan Temple as a living Bodhisattva who rescued disasters. Burn incense and pray day and night, and worship devoutly.”

"When thousands of beliefs come together and accumulate over the years, they will turn into the will of all living beings and bless the Jialan Temples distributed throughout the world."

"This kind of wish power of living beings seems invisible and has no deterrent. It is difficult for even monks to feel it, but it can deter and restrain evil spirits."

After hearing this, Youxue suddenly realized and couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder we took shelter from the rain tonight and didn't encounter any ghosts."

Outside the temple, there are barren mountains and ridges with a strong sinister atmosphere. Places like these are the most likely to become the home of evil spirits and monsters.

And tonight is even more special because there is no moon in the sky!

The moon does not shine, and people are panicked.

In the underworld, moonless nights are also the most dangerous times.

On nights like this, some unbelievable and strange things will happen. There are hundreds of ghosts walking in the wilderness at night, there are green phosphorus fire lamps dotted in the dark void, and there are also dead souls swimming on the rivers...

And in dangerous forbidden places such as the Gate of Hell, the Blood River of Sin, and the Sea of ​​Bitterness, many strange things will emerge, which are enough to kill monks.

But until now, Youxue has not noticed any strange and dangerous aura.

This also made her realize that Su Yi was right. Hiding in the temple left behind by the Jialan Temple could turn danger into good fortune.

Just when she thought of this, Youxue seemed to notice it and raised her eyes to look outside the hall, "Fellow Taoist, someone is coming."

Su Yi was startled for a moment and frowned slightly, "Maybe there's trouble coming."

There is no moon tonight, the rain is pouring, and it is a deserted place, but someone comes here, it must be an unusual person.

Youxue said thoughtfully: "How about I go and keep the other party out?"

Su Yi shook his head slightly and said: "This place is reserved by Jialan Temple. After all, we are just passers-by here, so there is no reason to deny entry to others."

While he was talking to himself, a bright lightning ripped through the sky outside the hall.

At this moment, one could clearly see a thin figure rushing towards him very quickly in the rain curtain between the sky and the earth.

This is a man in Confucian robes with thin cheeks.

When he entered the gate of Jialan Temple, he breathed a sigh of relief.

However, when he saw the bonfire in the palace and the figures of a man and a woman, the man in Confucian robes couldn't help but frown and hesitated.

Just when he hesitated, a calm voice sounded:

"This temple is a no-owner's land, friends can do whatever they want."

Hearing this, the man in Confucian robes clasped his fists in the rain and said, "I'm sorry to disturb you two."

Then, he stepped into the hall.

When he saw the faces of Su Yi and You Xue clearly, the man in Confucian robes was startled for a moment, and then said: "To be honest with you two, I am in big trouble. However, if trouble comes, I will leave. I will never It affects both of you."

After that, he walked straight to a corner of the hall, sat cross-legged, then took out a bottle of pills, swallowed them, and meditated.

"It's interesting. In the middle of the night, I actually met an emperor in the early stage of Xuanzao Realm, and judging from the situation, he was seriously injured."

Youxue said in a voice message.

She could see at a glance the moral behavior of this man in Confucian robes!

"The level of cultivation is not important. What's rare is that this person is also upright and upright. He is obviously in trouble, but he has the intention not to involve others. It is not easy."

Su Yi said softly.

He is not afraid of trouble, but he never likes to be troubled.

Under such circumstances, the appearance of a stranger who could consider not causing trouble to others left a lot of good impressions on Su Yi.

However, to Su Yi, although the face of the man in Confucian robes was unfamiliar, he had a rough idea of ​​his origins when he saw him for the first time.

It is precisely because of this that he took the initiative to let the other party enter the hall.

Time passes bit by bit.

Su Yi lay lazily in the wicker chair, closing his eyes to relax.

Youxue sat by the bonfire on one side, occasionally staring at Su Yi's side face.

Outside the palace, it was windy and rainy, the night was desolate, and the roar of thunder could be heard from time to time.

Youxue didn't care about this at all.

Even if the sky falls and the earth falls, as long as she is with the person she likes, she will feel unprecedented peace and satisfaction in her heart.

A long time ago, she fell in love with the aloof and arrogant swordsman next to her.

She has never hidden this feeling.

Su Xuanjun knew it, and so did Ye Yu.

It's a pity that falling flowers are intentional and flowing water is ruthless. Back then, Su Xuanjun never took her love into his heart.

Even so, Youxue did not give up.

She also knew that she would most likely not get a response from Su Xuanjun in her life.

But none of this changed her mind.

When you like someone, you are always so unreasonable.

The moment she saw Su Yi again in the forbidden area of ​​the Ghost Snake Clan's ancestral court, Ye Yu knew that even after tens of thousands of years, she had never let go of the love deep in her heart.

Sometimes, Youxue often thinks, what if you are destined to get nothing in this life?

Will he be lonely for the rest of his life?

Will he end up depressed?

She couldn't think of an answer.

But Youxue can be sure that she has never regretted or changed her love for Su Xuanjun.

A moth flies into the flame, knowing that he will die, but he has no hesitation.

When it comes to liking Su Xuanjun, Youxue feels like a moth flying into the flames, completely careless and desperate.

Just when Youxue's thoughts were flying, she suddenly frowned, looked out of the hall with a pair of deep and bright eyes, and said through a message:

"Fellow Taoist, someone is here again."

Su Yi, who was dozing off, snorted and had no other reaction.

Soon, the man in Confucian robes meditating in the corner seemed to notice it, and suddenly opened his eyes.

Almost at the same time, outside the distant gate of the temple, in the rainy night, there was a sound of breaking through the air.
