Chapter 147 Treasure
outside the cave.

General Shangguan led his men to surround the cave and waited for Xuandu to come out.

"General, except for this entrance, no other passages have been found." Someone came to report, which further confirmed General Shangguan's decision, but General Shangguan's face did not show any joy.

He frowned slightly, looked at the dark abyss-like entrance of the cave, and couldn't help but ask: "Is there a water source nearby?"

A place of water?

When the subordinate heard this, he thought for a moment and said, "There seems to be a water source."

Hearing this, General Shangguan's face changed slightly and he said to everyone: "Follow me, the rest of you stay here. If anything happens, send a signal to notify me."

After that, General Shangguan left with a few capable men and rushed towards the water source. He didn't know why he was so worried, but according to his experience, generally speaking, the passage of the cave might There is more than one exit, and there is often another exit.

If there really is another exit, it is most likely related to the water source. The flow of gas and water flow are often the basis for people to survive in the cave.

It took Xuandu a long time to enter the cave, but he didn't come out for such a long time, which inevitably gave him various thoughts, so these thoughts arose in his mind. As for whether the result was what he thought, just follow him and see. knew.

Arriving at the water source, General Shangguan discovered at a glance that the so-called water source was nothing more than a waterfall. His eyes were immediately fixed on the waterfall. Through the flowing water, he could faintly see the gaps in the waterfall. He looked towards A stone was thrown in that direction. The stone entered for a long time but no sound was heard. This made General Shangguan's face suddenly become gloomy.

"General, let me go take a look."

One of his men noticed something was wrong, so he jumped into the waterfall. After a while, the man jumped down with a slightly gloomy face: "General, there is a cave inside."

There is no need to go on. General Shangguan already knows the result. Xuandu must have escaped from this cave. No wonder he didn't wait for the other party for so long.

"Send people to arrest them immediately." General Shangguan said in a deep voice. He went through all the troubles to learn about the treasure of Xuankong Temple, but in the end, Xuandu got there first. It would be impossible not to be angry. Now He just wants to tear Xuandu into pieces.

While General Shangguan and others were furious, Xuandu had already left with the treasure.

"At this time, Shangguan Tong should have already known that the treasure was obtained by me, right? It's a pity that Shangguan Tong's agency calculated, and I was the one who got the lead in the end. Now all the treasures in Xuankong Temple have fallen into my hands. Shangguan Tong is afraid that he will become angry. .”

Xuandu smiled lightly. This time he sacrificed many disciples of the Purana Cult, which was a great loss for him, but the final result was gratifying, because after spending so much manpower and material resources, he finally got the treasure of Xuankong Temple. .

In addition to large sums of money, there are also some elixirs that even Xuandu is very excited about. For the Rebirth Cult, money is very important, but for Xuandu, these elixirs are even more important, because with these Danfang, maybe he can rise up in a very short period of time like the Taiping Sect.

"It is no longer safe to stay here. In the entire Zhou Dynasty, there is no place to get rid of Shangguan Tong's influence, but the only place that can really make Shangguan Tong fear..."

Thinking like this, Xuandu set his sights in a direction to the east. It was no other place, but the core of the Kyoto imperial court. Shangguan Tong had great power in Zhongzhou, but no matter how big it was, it could not be as big as the imperial court. So next he is going to Kyoto.

……

Chen Shuai and his party accelerated their pace and drove for three consecutive days. Finally, they arrived at the outskirts of Kyoto. The entire Kyoto was guarded by eight major cities. It is no exaggeration to say that each of these eight cities is very huge, and there are many people coming and going. There are many merchants.

"This is Thousand Stars City."

Youxuan looked at the tall city wall in front of him. The towering city wall gave people a sense of solemnity, with an old and simple ancient atmosphere.

"We can have a good rest here tonight. After arriving at Thousand Stars City, we will soon reach the Imperial City. The journey will only take less than a day. There is still some time before the Demon Slaying Conference. We just take this opportunity to let these juniors Shop around more.”

Unlike Kong Shui and others, Yu Xuan has been to Kyoto several times, so he is still familiar with it. He is probably the only person present who has been here, and even Kong Shui must have come less frequently.

Several people from the younger generation had obvious expressions of joy on their faces after hearing this. After all, it was rare for them to travel far away. Of course, these people did not include Chen Shuai. He looked at this ancient city with a little expression on his face. of moving expression.

After paying the entrance fee, the group quickly entered Thousand Stars City. It was indeed lively here, not only passers-by, but also various vendors on both sides calling to buy. What Chen Shuai was concerned about was that there were inevitably more warriors along the way.

"I remember there was an inn in front of me. It was very nice. It's called Laike Inn. Let's go and stay there tonight."

Youxuan planned to go to the inn first, and then let Qingxu and others move freely after checking in. Under the leadership of Youxuan, the group went to Laike Inn. After a while, everyone saw the signboard of Laike Inn.

"This... I remember it wasn't like this when I came here last time. Why this time..."

Looking at the dilapidated inn in front of him, Youxuan was a little surprised. It seemed that the inn had been unoccupied for a long time and was completely closed. After asking around, he found out that the owner of the inn had been there a few months ago. He was beheaded in public.

It turned out that the innkeeper was a member of the Taiping Religion, and he secretly funded a lot of money to the Taiping Religion. Later, after the Taiping Religion was destroyed, many people were implicated and their relationship with the Taiping Religion was found out. Naturally, the court would not let these people go. , the innkeeper and his family were caught by the court and executed.

After learning the news, Youxuan felt helpless and had to take everyone to other inns. After finding an inn at random, the group entered the inn.

"Hey, I met an acquaintance."

Xuandu, who was dining in the inn, suddenly caught a glimpse of several figures appearing at the door and immediately recognized their identities. He took a sip of his wine and smiled slightly, not caring about Chen Shuai and others.

The moment Chen Shuai entered the inn, he felt a vague voyeuristic gaze. He looked around, and finally his eyes fell on a man wearing black clothes and a bamboo hat. He stayed on the man for a while, until the man looked at him. , then he looked back.

"This person's aura is vaguely familiar, as if he is someone from the Rebirth Cult."

Chen Shuai thought to himself that he didn't expect to meet people from the Rebirth Cult here again. It was really a fate. At the same time, he was also surprised that these people were so courageous that they dared to come to Kyoto openly without fear of being discovered.

"This boy, his senses are really sharp. It seems that he has discovered me." Seeing Chen Shuai's eyes, Xuandu felt tight in his heart, but then he felt calm. It seemed that Chen Shuai's discovery of his identity did not cause him any trouble.In fact, this was the case. He was not worried at all that Chen Shuai would report his identity. After Chen Shuai and his party settled down, Xuandu stood up and left. The interaction between the two was limited to this.

"It's not good, it's not good, Master Kongshui, Uncle Youxuan, something serious has happened."

Qingxu ran back in a panic and shouted so loudly that almost everyone in the inn heard it. Hearing Qingxu's voice, Kong Shui, Youxuan and others walked out of the room and looked at each other.

"What happened?" Youxuan asked.

"Zhenwu, something happened to him." Qingxu said anxiously.

"What?" Kong Shui was startled and asked quickly, "What's wrong with him?"

"Zhenwu was captured and made to be his son-in-law!"

Qingxu scratched his head, looking very anxious.

son in law?

A word that had almost nothing to do with them appeared in everyone's mind, and they could never imagine that this word had anything to do with monks or Taoist priests.

"Follow me. If we don't save Zhenwu, he will be arrested and taken to a church to get married."

Qingxu said to a few people that there was no time to explain so much now, so he led a group of people to Zhenwu's location. Only when he explained the truth did everyone know the whole story.

It turned out that a few people had been wandering around after leaving the inn. They accidentally passed by a ring and saw warriors fighting on it. The surroundings were very lively. After watching for a while, Qingxu felt itchy and wanted to go up and compete, but naturally nothing happened. No exception, he defeated several challengers.

Seeing how powerful Qingxu was, some warriors did not dare to go on stage to compete. Finally, the man in green took action. His strength was slightly stronger than Qingxu. The two were in a stalemate for a long time. At the critical moment, Qingxu caught one of the opponent's flaws, but the result was that he failed. Thinking that this was a flaw deliberately exposed by the other party.

After defeating Qingxu, the opponent did not give up and even wanted to kill Qingxu. Naturally, Zhenwu would not just watch the opponent attack Qingxu, so he ignored the rules and directly stopped the opponent and injured him. Then People are no match for Zhenwu, so he leaves in embarrassment.

After Qingxu left the arena, Zhenwu became the master of the ring. Several warriors came up one after another, but none of them were Zhenwu's opponents. In the end, no one challenged him. Everyone was very happy. Just as Zhenwu jumped off the ring and was about to leave, he was beaten by a group of warriors. People stopped me.

Through the stories of these people, Qingxu and others realized that this was not a martial arts competition at all, but a martial arts competition for marriage. Now that Zhenwu had defeated all the challengers, he would become the son-in-law of the Yang family.

Of course Zhenwu disagreed when he learned about this, so the two sides reached a stalemate. No matter how persuaded by these people, Zhenwu refused. In the end, the two sides fought. The Yang family sent many warriors to tie up Zhenwu Wuhua and planned to force the bridal chamber.

As a last resort, Qingxu had to rush back and tell Kong Shui and others immediately, so as not to waste time and let the group of people force Zhen Wu into the bridal chamber. After hearing this, Kong Shui and You Xuan looked at each other, and neither of them knew what to say. .

Soon, the group of people arrived at the Yang family's mansion, and they saw that the Yang family's mansion was decorated with lights and colorful decorations. Even the doors and windows were covered with red words of happiness, and the guests' chatter and congratulations could be heard inside.

"There is a demonic atmosphere here!"

Chen Shuai, who was standing at the door, did not enter, but stayed in place and whispered, with an inexplicable light shining in his eyes. Then he came to the corner, swayed, and entered the Yang family mansion.

Looking far into the distance, he saw that the demonic aura was the strongest in the center of the Yang family's mansion, but it was also quite obscure. After observing for a while, a noise suddenly came from below. It turned out that Kong Shui and others had a dispute with the Yang family.

"No, the young monk has already worshiped and married our young lady. In other words, he is already the son-in-law of our Yang family. How could he be handed over to you? You can't even think of taking away our Yang family's uncle."

A clear and beautiful female voice sounded, which sounded a bit aggressive, immediately rendering Kong Shui and others speechless.

Not long after, Kong Shui smiled bitterly: "Everyone, the fault for this matter is ours, but you also know that we are monks and cannot marry wives, and your behavior..."

As he said that, he glanced at Zhenwu who was tied into a rice dumpling. He was wearing a big red robe and his mouth was blocked. Only a pair of eyes were exposed. He looked at everyone eagerly. His eyes were clear. Help~
"Why don't you let go of Zhenwu and let Zhenwu tell us his decision?" Kong Shui suggested.

I thought this proposal would not be accepted, but who would have thought that a middle-aged man agreed directly: "I can let him speak, but master, what will you do if he agrees to marry my daughter?"

"This..." Kong Shui hesitated, but seeing Zhenwu's appearance, he probably wouldn't agree, so he made the decision for Zhenwu, "If Zhenwu agrees, we should leave."

"Okay, untie him!"

After a while, Zhen Wu was loosened, but he was still with the Yang family, and his body was still under control. The middle-aged man stood between Zhen Wu and Kong Shui, looked at Zhen Wu, and asked: "Son-in-law, tell them, you Do you want to be the son-in-law of our Yang family, or do you plan to be a pure and innocent monk?"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but look at Zhenwu. Zhenwu took a deep breath, nodded towards Kong Shui, and said seriously: "I want to be the son-in-law of the Yang family!"

As soon as these words came out, Kong Shui and others were dumbfounded. They stared at Shingo in disbelief with their eyes wide open. They looked like they couldn't believe it. Did Shingo really say this?

Qingxu looked at Zhenwu in great surprise. Apart from being shocked, his mind was filled with confusion. No, how could Zhenwu be willing to become the son-in-law of the Yang family?
"Hahaha, you have also heard that the young monk wants to become the son-in-law of the Yang family. In this case, I will not send him far away. I also ask you not to harass my son-in-law again in the future."

After that, he waved to indicate that they could leave.

Kong Shui and others were still in a state of confusion, and they had not recovered from what happened. They looked at Zhen Wu, but Zhen Wu's face was full of anxiety. He wanted to speak but didn't know what to say. This scene made Kong Shui Others were surprised.

"Zhenwu, what did you just say? You might as well say it again!"

At this moment, Chen Shuai came over and said to Zhen Wu, but his eyes were always staring at the bride next to Zhen Wu!
