The eldest lady has no taboos in what she does

Chapter 24 Sacrifice
"Today is not the first or fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. What are they going to the temple for?"

"I just heard about it this morning. It was said that Master Huiling heard about the case of missing children and held a prayer meeting to pray for the children and keep them safe. If there is a problem with Qixia Temple, wouldn't they be in danger?"

Gu Mengyin's eyes also darkened, she took out the tracking charm and lit it with fingertip fire.

Burning black smoke rose into the air and flew quickly in a certain direction.

"Ready your horse and follow."

"it is good."

The two followed the smoke all the way out of the city. As they walked further, Gu Wenque discovered that the direction the smoke was going was Qixia Temple.

Master Huiling is very famous in Xijing. Many people in the city went out of the city to Qixia Temple after hearing about Master Huiling's practice today to pray for blessings.

As soon as the two of them reached the foot of the mountain, they were blocked by a carriage.

"Why are there so many people?"

Gu Mengyin raised her eyes and saw that almost all of them were women going up the mountain with their children.

"You go and look for her along the road. If you find your mother, let them go back to the city."

"it is good."

Gu Mengyin reined in her horse and continued up the mountain from the mountain road.

Carriages were already parked outside Qixia Temple, and a large number of pilgrims were pouring into the temple.

Gu Mengyin turned over and dismounted, and found that the smoke had entered Qixia Temple.

"Donors, don't be anxious. There are too many people coming today, and the temple's capacity is limited, so please give the little benefactors to the poor monks. We will bring the little benefactors into the lobby and let them accept them. The baptism of Buddha’s light.”

"Can't we follow him in? The child is still so young, I won't worry if he doesn't follow me."

"Yes, little master, let us go in and take a look. We will stand outside the door and watch. We will never go in and disturb Master Hui Ling."

The monk blocking the door shook his head and said: "There are too many people here today. Please forgive me. If any donor is worried, please take the little donor back."

Those people were a little hesitant when they heard what the monk said. Master Huiling usually only received dignitaries and rarely appeared in front of the common people. It was not easy to encounter him coming out to perform religious services today, and they were not willing to miss such a good opportunity.

"My child is gone, so I'll have to ask the little master to take care of the child for us."

Seeing someone pushing the child out, others also handed their children into the monk's hands, fearing that their children would not be able to turn out if it was too late.

The main entrance was blocked, so Gu Mengyin could only go around to the side door and climbed in. She found that the smoke was staying in the direction of the Zen room at the back of the temple.

Generally speaking, a temple with strong incense should be shining with golden light, but Qixia Temple is surrounded by a dense black air, which is actually heavier than the mass graves.

Gu Mengyin avoided the walking monks and came to the Zen room surrounded by smoke.

"Host, the little donors are already waiting in the lobby."

"Well, let's go now."

"Yes."

When the door of the Zen room opened, Gu Mengyin jumped lightly and hid under the door beam. Master Huiling, who was wearing cassock, went towards the lobby.

The tracking smoke has been following Master Huiling.

Gu Mengyin jumped down and followed him silently with deep eyes.

At this time, dozens of children, who were only three or four years old, had gathered in the temple hall. Many children were crying in fear because they were separated from their relatives, and the hall was noisy.

"President Huiling is here."

Master Huiling walked into the lobby and just waved his hand. The children seemed to be frozen and stopped crying.

"Little benefactors, please take your seats. The ceremony will begin soon."

Master Huiling came to the altar, took three sticks of incense and waved them towards the Buddha statue.

Gu Mengyin dipped two drops of yin and yang water on her eyelids and opened her heavenly eyes. When she looked up again, there was still a Buddha statue somewhere on the altar. It was clearly an evil god with a ferocious face.

Gu Mengyin used illusions to confuse the monks guarding the door. When Master Huiling turned around, he entered the hall and hid on the huge stone pillar.Master Hui Ling turned around, the door of the hall was closed, and the light outside the door was instantly cut off. There were only a few scattered candles in the inner hall emitting dim light, which shone on Master Hui Ling's face, which looked extremely terrifying.

Master Huiling took out the handbell and shook it gently. All the children in the hall knelt down towards the statue of the evil god.

"I willingly give my all to my God."

As soon as Master Huiling finished speaking, the children began to read along numbly.

“I would give everything I have to my God.”

"Please God take me away and enjoy eternal bliss."

The childish voices of the children were extremely hollow in the hall.

As soon as the ringing bell in Master Hui Ling's hand stopped, the evil god statue suddenly opened its green eyes and turned into a thick cloud of smoke towards the child.

As the smoke approached, the faces of the immature children showed expressions of pain. They clutched their necks with both hands, their little faces turned red from holding back, and their eyes were full of helpless tears.

Seeing that the children's souls were about to be sucked out, Gu Mengyin flew out the exorcism talisman.

"Bald donkey, you are courting death!"

She flew down in front of the children and formed a seal with her hands.

"Xuanzong of heaven and earth, the root of all qi, has cultivated for thousands of kalpas, rectified my magical powers, inside and outside the three realms, only the Tao is the most respected, with a golden light in my body, reflecting my body, as fast as the law!"

A huge golden light flashed, surrounding all the children and isolating them from the thick smoke.

The sudden change caused Master Huiling's expression to change dramatically.

"Who are you, and what are you doing by breaking into my Dharma Hall without permission?"

Gu Mengyin's eyes were condensed and she sneered, "Of course I'm here to send you to hell."

"The Emperor of the North has ordered me to use paper and talismans to drive away ghosts and evil spirits. If anyone dares to refuse to pay, he will be taken to Fengdu City with the utmost urgency."

Exorcism talismans flew out from his body one by one, surrounding Master Huiling and the smoke.

Master Huiling flew the beads in his hand and chanted a mantra in his mouth.

The beads grew bigger little by little and hit the yellow talisman.

Gu Mengyin struck Master Huiling with a thunderbolt from his palm.

"boom!"

Master Hui Ling was defeated and was beaten so hard that he hit the statue, which was crumbling.

The smoke roared loudly and turned into a monster with fangs flying towards Gu Mengyin.

Gu Mengyin sneered, flew forward and flew out the cinnabar.

The red cinnabar forms a red light that surrounds the smoke.

The smoke angrily collided with Cinnabar, and after a loud noise, Cinnabar was knocked away.

Smoke turned and rushed towards the children.

Gu Mengyin flew to stop him, but was stopped by Master Huiling.

At this time, the people standing in the inner hall rushed toward Gu Mengyin like zombies.

Gu Mengyin blasted them to the main hall door with a thunderbolt from her palm.

The loud noise attracted the attention of people outside the temple.

Upon seeing this, Master Huiling quickly stepped forward and opened the door of the hall.

The smoke took the opportunity to fly out.

Seeing the smoke escaping, Gu Mengyin turned around and chased after him, but at this moment Master Huiling shouted angrily, "Demon girl, you dare to break into Qixia Temple without permission and murder innocent creatures. I'll take advantage of you."
