When Golden Finger Meets Salted Fish

Chapter 157: The accident of the pagoda

As soon as Tan Xin showed up, he was hit hard by Moxiu. Fortunately, his self-cultivation is not bad, and now he has listened to the old monk's lecture, and he is in excellent condition. Against this group of demon cultivators who just had a fight with Yun Qingyue, he can handle it well.

Moxiu, who was the leader, looked at his subordinates who were fighting again, with a gloomy expression on his face.

Seeing this, a subordinate around him cautiously asked: "My lord, what should we do now?"

The demon cultivator glanced sideways at his subordinates, then cast a gloomy glance at Tan Xin, and finally shifted his gaze to Yun Qingyue: "Leave some people behind, entangle them first, and the rest follow me."

After he finished speaking, the subordinates immediately divided into two groups, and they no longer blindly attacked Shangyun Qingyue and Tan Xin like before. They began to try to delay, and when all kinds of methods were used, they really delayed Yun Qingyue and Tan Xin's footsteps.

The little white cat took a careful look. Those demon cultivators were really heading for the pagoda behind the main hall, and they didn't know what they were going to do. On the contrary, Tan Xin, who also saw this scene, had a guess in her heart—the pagoda is also called a stupa, and generally speaking, it is a place where temples are used to enshrine relics, scriptures, and magic tools. In other words, the most cherished and precious things in this temple are placed in the stupa!

Tan Xin didn't know what treasures were in the Foguang Temple, but these demon cultivators who were heading towards the pagoda obviously had a clear purpose. And whether it was him or Yun Qingyue, it was obviously impossible for those demon cultivators to easily get what they wanted.

Seeing that most of the demon cultivators were heading towards the pagoda, Yun Qingyue suddenly called out: "Supervisor."

Before the demon cultivators could react, a little white cat fell from the sky. Immediately, the white cat transformed into a white tiger and roared, ten times more majestic than the ice tiger condensed by Yun Qingyue's sword intent before. And as the white tiger roared, the demon cultivators felt a golden light flashing around them, and when they looked again, they found that they were already in a cage—the white tiger didn't kill them, but captured everyone.

The white tiger belongs to gold, so it is not a problem to create a few cages, but the trapped magician is not too panicked. After all, they are not mortals, and the cage that the white tiger has condensed is also unbreakable for them, so they each raised their magical weapons to attack.

Yun Qingyue didn't care about this face-off either, he just regarded it as a means of delaying, and raised his sword to mend the demon trapped in the cage. As a result, she was stopped by the white tiger before she could swing her sword.

Looking at the cage again, I saw that all kinds of attacks from the demon cultivators fell on it, which was almost useless.

Yun Qingyue was very surprised, put down the hand holding the sword, turned to ask Baihu, "What's going on?"

Baihu was a little proud, glanced at Tan Xin, and finally said vaguely: "It's the associated mines you dug last time, senior sister. I recently studied them in my free time and strengthened them."

Yun Qingyue immediately understood when he heard the words, Baihu was talking about the associated mines of Jin Yuanjing. It was also extremely difficult for her to mine in the stone forest at the beginning, but now the associated mine has been strengthened by the hands of the white tiger, one can imagine its hardness - this is very different from the metal condensed with gold elements, at least these magic repairs are temporarily closed. No problem here. If Baihu personally guards him, he can even lock him up like this forever.

The purpose of these demon cultivators was unknown, and Yun Qingyue was not without doubts in his heart, so if he could capture them alive, he was not in a hurry to kill them. And Tan Xin didn't even bother to pay attention to these things, as early as when the white tiger made a move to trap Moxiu, he went to the pagoda to chase after him.

Seeing this, Yun Qingyue didn't stay any longer, and immediately chased after the pagoda, leaving Baihu running faster than her on four legs.

The two came quickly, but the speed of Mo Xiu, who was one step ahead, was obviously not slow. When they arrived at the pagoda, they saw that the leader Moxiu splashed something on the gate of the pagoda, and then the magic energy shot up to suppress the Buddha light of the pagoda, and began to erode rapidly. Before Yun Qingyue or Tan Xin shouted "Stop", the Buddha light on the pagoda completely disappeared.

The young monk's face was extremely gloomy, and it was rare to see a bit of anger on his handsome face. But the demon cultivator who broke the pagoda didn't want to be entangled at all, so he turned his head and led people into the pagoda. Only when he saw the white tiger, his pupils shrank for a moment.

As a Buddhist sect disciple, Tan Xin couldn't take the initiative to attack the pagoda, so he hurriedly chased after him.

Yun Qingyue and Bai Hu looked at each other, and also chased after him.

It's just that before the two of them ran up together, let alone after them chase into the pagoda, the demon cultivator who broke into the pagoda first did not know what touched him, and the pagoda in front of him suddenly changed...

I don't know how many years this Foguang Temple has stood here. Although some old traces accumulated over the years are necessary, it is still clean and bright because of the maintenance of the monks. But at this moment, the original glamorous pagoda suddenly exuded a decaying atmosphere—the outer wall fell off, the wood decayed, the copper bells at the corners of the eaves no longer made crisp bells, and even the bricks and tiles on the eaves also fell off.

As if in just a moment, the pagoda in front of him has gone through thousands of years and suddenly decayed. And it's not just this pagoda that has changed, this change even expands outward from the center of the pagoda.

The railings and stone steps outside the pagoda began to be damaged, and the weeds in the ground finally broke through the bricks and stones, grew luxuriantly, and then turned yellow and withered in a short period of time. Years ruthlessly crushed the entire Buddhist temple, and in just a blink of an eye, the scenery in front of me has changed beyond recognition, and the bursts of Sanskrit sounds that have been lingering in my ears also stopped abruptly at this moment.

Jiang Mo, who witnessed this change with her own eyes, was taken aback, especially when the invisible energy spread to her feet, she subconsciously took several steps back. In the end, I really didn't avoid it, and I was worried that I would grow old with this temple.

The system sensed what she was thinking, and said coolly: "The host is thinking too much. A thousand years is a long time for others, but for you... You were underage at first, and you were still underage in the past thousand years, right? What's the rush?"

A tiger cub wearing a big tiger shell: "..."

The underage white tiger was speechless, she stepped on the broken road with her paws, and looked at her senior sister resentfully. Of course, the senior sister has not changed. In fact, it is only this temple that has been affected and become corrupt.

She just frowned and looked at the pagoda in front of her. There was a little concern in her glazed eyes, and she didn't dare to chase it directly like before.

Tan Xin looked towards the direction of the main hall at the moment when the Sanskrit sound stopped. There was no surprise on the young monk's face, but there was a trace of sadness in his black and white eyes—he has insight, and he may have seen the situation in the temple. wrong. But the monks in the temple did not have any malice towards him, and the old monk taught him the Dharma carefully, and treated him as a half-teacher.

Jiang Mo saw the little monk making eleven obeisances in the direction of the main hall, and when he got up again, he seemed to have calmed down. Then he turned around and faced the unrecognizable pagoda again, without any hesitation, he walked towards the inside of the pagoda.

Seeing this, Yun Qingyue hesitated for a moment, then stepped up to follow, followed closely by Bai Hu again.

The two walked into the pagoda together, and saw that the inside of the pagoda was completely eroded by the years just like the outside. As soon as they entered, they saw cobwebs all over the room and a thick layer of dust on the ground. It's just strange that a group of demon cultivators broke in before, but the dust on the ground was intact without any trace.

Of course, it is not difficult for a monk to stand out of thin air, but being down-to-earth is a habit carved in the bones of people. No one would stop walking after being able to fly, not to mention the fight between them, the consumption of those magic cultivators was not small.

With just one glance, both Yun Qingyue and Tan Xin noticed something was wrong, and they immediately checked on the first floor of the pagoda.

It didn't take much effort, and the two found several corpses at the gate and the stairs. Or the corpse is not appropriate, it should be said to be bones—like this suddenly decaying pagoda, these bones also seem to have gone through thousands of years, covered in dust and flesh and blood. If it weren't for the familiar robes on their bodies, I'm afraid no one would connect them with the previous magic cultivators.

In addition, it can also be seen from the gestures and movements of these skeletons that they died instantly without any precautions. Because they originally hid near the gate and stairs to ambush, and their posture did not change until the moment they died.

Bai Hu was really taken aback, and cowardly hid behind his senior sister—it's not like she hasn't seen a dead body after transmigrating to the cultivation world, but it's the first time she's seen such a weird situation. Among other things, Nascent Soul monks have a thousand years of lifespan. Even if this pagoda has really experienced a thousand years in a flash, it is impossible to consume these demon cultivators all at once! So how the **** did they die?

No one could answer Jiang Mo, Yun Qingyue and Tan Xin didn't seem to be surprised. Only Tan Xin recited the Buddha's name together, which was regarded as the last attention to these people, and immediately said: "Let's go upstairs and have a look."

Yun Qingyue didn't refuse, just rubbed Baihu's head casually, and continued to go upstairs.

The stairs of the pagoda were already decayed, but it didn't matter to the monks. The two of them quickly flew up to the second floor, and unexpectedly saw two sets of skeletons at the top of the stairs. They searched as usual, but found nothing, and then went up to the third and fourth floors... This pagoda in Foguang Temple is not the tallest, but it has nine floors, and it was not until the ninth floor that they found the leader magic repair.

The cultivation level of this demon cultivator is obviously the highest among the group of people. Even after experiencing the accident of the pagoda, he also crashed here silently, but his flesh and blood have not been eroded by the years. When Yun Qingyue and the others found him, he was still the same as before, with his eyes eagerly looking forward.

What is he looking at?

The two of them followed his line of sight at the same time, but saw a Buddha statue enshrined above the pagoda. After years of devastation, the Buddha statue has become decayed just like the pagoda, and only a few benevolent eyes can be seen vaguely. But this Buddha statue is not the point. The point is that he is holding a crystal clear glazed cup in his palm, which is still shining with Buddha's light after years.

"What is this? Could it be that those demon cultivators came here for this?" Baihu, who had seen the strangeness of this pagoda, did not dare to step forward, but her curiosity prompted her to ask.

Yun Qingyue is not a Buddhist disciple, and he doesn't know the details of the glazed cup. But Tan Xin seemed to know something, or guessed something. I saw him take a few steps forward, clasped his palms together and saluted, murmured something but didn't know what he said, and finally took two steps forward to take off the glazed cup.

But at this moment, a strange wind blew by, and the glass cup suddenly disappeared.
