The Immortal Monarch Xia was deceived

Several people stood from morning to noon, but they still haven't entered the temple.

Although it is the end of summer, the sun is still vicious at noon.There is no shade in the open space in front of the temple, and the scorching sun makes people feel extremely uncomfortable.

Xie Guanbai was already sweating profusely, his energy-raising skills were far inferior to his senior brother and Qi Ji, once again he caught Chi Si and complained endlessly.

"It's been standing for a long time, when will it be our turn."

"It's so hot that I can't even drink water here."

"Hey, Chi Si, aren't you hot?"

Chi Si raised his eyebrows, like a delicate flower blooming happily under the sun, and said, "It's not hot. Isn't it comfortable to be in the sun?"

If it wasn't for the inappropriate place, lying outside would be harmful, and he still wanted to lie in the sun to make up for the sleep he didn't get today.

Seeing Xie Guanbai staring at him dumbfounded, he turned his head to look at Qi Ji, and then looked around.

Qi Ji looked indifferent, it was hard to see anything other than the tiny sweat on his forehead.

However, many of the surrounding people were as hot and unbearable as Xie Guanbai and complained constantly, and some wealthy people even held up umbrellas and played fans.

He realized belatedly that it was really hot that day.

"Would you like to go and rest under the shade of the trees over there for a while, I'll arrange it here." He pointed to a forest not far from the ancient temple and asked Qi Ji.

Qi Ji looked at him with a half smile but not a smile, as if he felt that he was underestimated by the other party.

Xie Guanbai's spirit was shaken, and there was a gleam of amnesty in his eyes: "Then I'll go over there for a meeting."

Xie Guanhe glanced at him helplessly.Xia Lian, a martial arts practitioner, shouldn't be so delicate, but he couldn't bear to scold him.

After queuing for another half an hour, it was finally their turn.

At this time Xie Guanbai was already lying under the shade of a tree and taking a nap.

"There's no need to wake him up." Xie Guanhe sighed softly, "I'm making you laugh."

This junior brother went down the mountain with him this time, and his experience in the world is only to increase his knowledge, but it will not be of much help when it comes to facts.

"Guan Bai's heart is really rare." Qi Ji replied with a smile.

Is this making fun of Xie Guanbai like a child by beating around the bush?

Chi Si usually likes to tease Xie Guanbai, but now he doesn't care too much, and even plans to make up a spooky ghost story about the temple to scare him after he comes out.

The three raised their feet to enter the temple, but they were stopped by a person at the door.

"Wait, let's go in one by one."

This person was wearing an ordinary peasant uniform, and he must have been an enthusiastic villager who came to help guard the temple.

Xie Guanhe was puzzled: "Why?"

"Our Shangxian here is a real god, not those outside who are deceived and abducted by the name of the god. If you have any wishes, tell the Shangxian well. As long as you are sincere, the Shangxian will help you realize it."

"In those temples outside, a swarm of people ran in front of the gods and said to each other. Who do you think the gods listen to? Could it be louder than anyone else?"

"Then what about them?" Qi Ji raised his chin and pointed at the few men, women and children who had just come out of the temple.

"They are a family. For the sake of the eldest son's high school, they come to offer incense together." The villagers explained, "The same wish can be said together."

"Our wishes are also the same." Chi Si said casually, "We came together to learn the magic of immortality."

I said this excuse once yesterday, and the villagers who guarded the gate were impressed by his stunning appearance, and they remembered him as soon as they saw him.

"Since that's the case, let's go in together. But Shangxian never accepts apprentices." The villagers looked at them carefully again, "If you will be rejected later, you...you should try a few more times."

Both Chi Si and Qi Ji have shocking looks, and Xie Guanhe is also imposing.

The villagers felt that if Shangxian accepted these extraordinary-looking disciples, it would be a good talk.

The interior of the ancient temple in the mountain village is not very spacious, and the overly thick incense ash and fireworks linger for a long time, and the smell is so strong that it is a bit choking.

The statues of the gods originally enshrined in the temple were removed, and a golden body was not built for the new true god, so the altar was empty.

Chi Si glanced around and walked straight towards the back temple.

"Stop. What are you doing?" A Taoist suddenly appeared at the door, blocking his way.

The Taoist priest looks quite old, with fine wrinkles around his eyes, but his eyes are clean and vigorous, his back is straight, and he wears an old Taoist robe that seems to be about the same age as him, but he doesn't look poor and dirty at all, on the contrary There is a profound solemnity precipitated by the years, showing the aura of immortality.

The triangular eyes of the old Taoist swept over the three of them one by one: "Learning from a teacher? The immortals do not accept apprentices. Go to the front hall and ask for three sticks of incense before coming back. I will teach you the skills of cultivating immortals."

"We are from the capital city, and we have important matters to discuss with the gods." Qi Ji bit the word "capital city" heavily, with obvious hints.

Most of those wandering Taoist priests who cheated out of fame in remote counties imagined that they could find a position in the palace.

I don't know whether he saw the other party's malicious temptation, or the fake god's ambition is not here, the old way is as firm as a rock: "The gods don't see outsiders. The three of you, please go back."

Xie Guanhe bowed his hands to the old Taoist: "We want to..."

"We came here here for the name, and want to see the gods with our own eyes." Chi Si snatched Xie Guanhe's words, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly with a greasy sneer, "Can't you be accommodating?"

"You..." The old man paused, his sharp eyes moved to Chi Si's face, and he began to scrutinize him carefully.

After a few breaths, he stroked his beard, which was as bright as silver silk: "I don't know the will of the Shangxian, so I dare not make decisions on my own. How about this, you go back to the inn and wait, and after I ask the Shangxian, I will find someone to inform you. "

His tone was still not salty, but his rock-hard attitude had softened a lot.

"How long do we have to wait? We have other urgent matters, so we can't stay in the village for too long." Chi Si bargained with him, "Besides, there is no place for us to stay in the inn."

The old Taoist showed hesitation, and looked at him for a moment: "You go to the inn first, and I will go to meet the immortal right away, it should not take an hour."

Qi Ji winked at Chi Si, Chi Si understood, and said to the old Taoist: "In that case, let's take our leave first."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left the ancient temple.

"Did you feel it?" After leaving the temple gate, Qi Ji sneered, "There is no one in the back temple."

The old temple in the mountain village is not big at all, if there are still people inside, it is impossible not to notice a little breath with his profound skill.

Xie Guanhe nodded: "From the beginning to the end, there was only that old Taoist priest inside."

Why the gods do not see outsiders, it is because there is no one.

Everything is written and performed by the old Taoist priests.

The three walked to the edge of the woods and woke Xie Guanbai who was dozing off.

He seemed to be dreaming, mumbling something.

When he woke up, he was probably still in the gap between the dream world and the present world in a trance, and the half-closed sleepy eyes saw Chi Si and said: "Hey, Chi Si, I forgot the fourth sentence, please say it again."

Chi Si: "Odds change and evens remain the same, the symbols look at the quadrant."

Xie Guanbai was taken aback.

He stood there in a daze for a moment, then realized the embarrassment just now, his cheeks were smoking from embarrassment.

"Chi Si, you bastard!"

Xie Guanhe coughed twice to stop the two of them from playing around: "Let's go."

"Ah?" Xie Guanbai was taken aback again, "That god..."

Seeing the smirk on Chi Si's face, he instantly realized that he had missed it, and was even more ashamed and annoyed: "Chi Si, why didn't you wake me up!"
