Creed of the heavens

"Yongzhen, I want to ask you to do me a favor."

Kuro took out a letter from the desk, and solemnly said to Yongzhen: "Please give this letter to my ninja. After three years, I need his help again."

No matter how much help Yongzhen provided to him, there was always only one person that Jiulang trusted most in his heart, the ninja who desperately protected him in Hirata mansion three years ago, the wolf who was revived by him with the power of Long Yin.

Since the attack on the Hirata mansion three years ago, the wolf has been imprisoned alone at the bottom of a dry well by Genichiro as a suspect.

The loyal wolf never thought of running away without further orders from his master.

Yong Zhen took the envelope from Jiu Lang's hand and thought about it for a while, before finally nodding and agreeing to his request: "I see, I will tell him Master Jiu Lang's meaning."

"As for you?"

When Yongzhen turned around and tried to talk to Lu Xiao, Lu Xiao was nowhere to be seen in the Observatory.

when?

Yongzhen has never let down her vigilance towards Lu Xiao, but she has never noticed when Lu Xiao disappeared.

Ming country traveler, what is your purpose?

Chapter 136 Visiting Xianfeng Temple at Night

Lu Xiao was not interested in Jiulang and Yongzhen's conversation about wolves, and after arousing Jiulang's fighting spirit, he left the Star Observatory first.

Yongzhen's network of contacts in Weiming is very large. With her as a dedicated agent to take care of Kuro, Genichiro, who actually controls the power of Weiming country, dare not be tough on Kuro.

If one wanted to completely cut off the immortality of the Weiming Kingdom, the Yuanzhi Palace, the source of the power of immortality, was a place that could not be bypassed.

Lu Xiao handed over the process of searching for information about Yuanzhi Palace to Yongzhen and Jiulang, who are locals, and he planned to go to Xianfeng Temple first to get the Immortal Zhanbailei.

Mount Kumgang is located in the north of Weiming Castle, and Xianfeng Temple is located in a beautiful forest.

Coming to such a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters during the day should be able to enjoy a lot of beautiful scenery, but sneaking into Mount King Kong at night made Lu Xiao feel creepy.

This mountain forest is too quiet, and there is no sound of insects and birds that should be played in the mountains.

When passing by a Buddhist temple at the foot of the mountain, Lu Xiao suddenly heard a faint calling.

"Those who pass by, please stay."

Lu Xiao stopped in front of this dilapidated Buddhist hall, frowned and looked around vigilantly, his eagle vision did not catch any trace of human presence.

The crisp female voice didn't care about Lu Xiao's search, and continued to utter from the Buddhist hall: "This Xianfeng Temple has deviated from the teachings of Lord Buddha and has gone into evil ways."

"The monks here have abandoned their duty of cultivating Buddhism and are obsessed with the study of the power of immortality."

After entering the Buddhist hall, Lu Xiao finally discovered the source of the misty female voice, which was a portrait of Buddha hanging in the Buddhist hall.

Seeing this picture, Lu Xiao suddenly realized that it was you.

"If your Excellency is captured in Xianfeng Temple, something terrible will happen, please turn around and leave immediately."

"If you have to go to Xianfeng Temple to complete something, please be careful, remember, remember."

At this point, the portrait stopped making any noise, and Lu Xiao looked around the portrait of Buddha with great interest for a while.

Sekiro is indeed a magical world, and this method of sound transmission through space obviously has nothing to do with science.

After entering the range of Mount Kumgang, Lu Xiao's eagle eye vision has never been turned off. At this time, within the effective range of his eagle eye vision, he suddenly caught three targets with flashing red lights.

The movement speed of these three targets was relatively slow, and they probably didn't come here after finding Lu Xiao's trail on purpose. The regular pace of the three of them as one was more like a routine patrol.

Could it be monk soldiers?

After leaving the Buddhist hall, Lu Xiao hid in the bushes hiding his breath, and soon three monks in yellow robes came in a group along the road into the mountain.

Among the three monks, the one who walked in the front was an elderly monk, holding a tin staff in his hand, while the two behind him were relatively young, and all three of them were muttering something as they walked forward. It seems to be chanting Buddhist scriptures.

Judging from the appearance, the three monks are very devout to the Buddha.

But Lu Xiao could clearly see through the eagle eye technique that bugs crawled in and out of their ears and noses from time to time, and some parts arched by bugs could be seen under the shriveled and blue-gray skin .

This disgusting picture made even the well-informed Lu Xiao feel unacceptable. Just like the previous reminder said, these monks have entered a semi-crazy state in pursuit of immortality.

Their bodies have become riddled with holes under the gnawing of the bugs, and the shriveled bodies are almost completely filled with bugs.

Although Lu Xiao instinctively wanted to bypass these monks, considering that there were many similar existences in Xianfeng Temple, he suppressed his nausea and prepared to attack, intending to test the strength of these monks first.

"Whoosh!"

The phantom arrow with poison on the left arm was shot out first, and after a short flight, it was inserted into the temple of the headed old monk.

"Ahhh!"

When the old monk fell down in response, an inhuman howl came from the mouths of the two temple guardian monks accompanying him.

They immediately locked the direction of the attack, and the two put on a posture, taking small steps one after the other, approaching the bushes where Lu Xiao was hiding.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Xiao forced herself to ignore the bugs in and out of the monks' bodies, and fought them in close combat.

Under the strengthening of the worms, the attack and defense of the two monks were much greater than that of ordinary people, but their moves seemed a little slow.

Lu Xiao used his gauntleted left hand to push aside the punch that was hitting him in the chest, followed the trend with his left hand, and the Hidden Sword that popped out pierced the chest of the monk soldier in front.

A strange thing happened. The monk whose heart was pierced didn't bleed a drop of blood, and his movements were not hindered in any way, as if he didn't feel any pain, he followed closely and smashed at Lu Xiao's sky cap from top to bottom.

Lu Xiao's movement speed was much faster than that of the monk soldiers. After retracting the Hidden Sword in his left hand, he dexterously avoided the flanking attack of the two monk soldiers, and walked around behind them at a speed sufficient to pull out afterimages.

This time he chose to target the head, and the two Hidden Swords stabbed into the back of the monks' heads at the same time, taking advantage of the monks' stiff bodies.

"Uh!"

Hoarse and ugly screams came from the mouths of the two, and the monk soldier who had been hit in the brain finally lost his feet and fell down.

Suppressing the nausea and throwing the bodies of the three under the cliff of King Kong Mountain, Lu Xiao summed up the gains from the battle while continuing to move forward.

"The first crossbow arrow destroyed the old monk's head, and the Hidden Blade pierced into the heart failed to stop them from moving. It seems that the head is their weakness, but it feels like a zombie."

Strictly speaking, the monks of Xianfeng Temple are no longer human beings.

Except for a small number of strong-willed monks, they have long since lost their sanity under the erosion of insects, and only retained their physical instincts to continue their day-to-day living habits in front of them.

Continuing to go deep into Xianfeng Temple along the mountain gate, Lu Xiao successively killed 78 groups of crazy monk soldiers patrolling in the mountain forest, and finally came to the closed gate of Xianfeng Temple.

Passing through the gate with eagle eye vision, Lu Xiao was able to capture a large number of red dots behind the gate, but none of these monks fell asleep at night, and many monks subconsciously wandered and patrolled the temple like wandering spirits.

If it wasn't limited by the magic power, Lu Xiao would really like to engrave a set of runes at the gate of the temple and burn the entire temple, which occupies a huge area.
