When he arrived at the wing room without lights, Yi Xingchen pushed a few doors, all of which were locked. He walked to the middle and was about to push the door when he suddenly heard noisy sounds and rapid footsteps outside the yard. He saw the light of the lantern torches, and the Taoists came out of the house to check. Yi Xingchen's eyes were about to be exposed, but in a hurry, he pushed the door in the middle actually opened.

He quickly dodged and hid in. He glanced at the outside light and couldn't help but smile bitterly. This was not the residence of the Taoist priests, but the scripture hall or conference hall for chanting. There were two rows of cushions on both sides, and there was a soft collapse in the middle. Yi Xingchen hid behind the door and looked out through the crack in the door, hoping that those people were not coming here, and after they walked away, he would go to find the bed again. However, when he heard the footsteps coming in his direction, and the lights on the window became brighter and brighter, and his voice became clearer. Then he saw several people holding lanterns towards him.

In desperation, he was worried about it and let it be a bed. Yi Xingchen didn't think too much, so he rushed to the couch and got into the couch.

As soon as he got into the room, the door was pushed open with a creaking sound, and many people walked in. The light in the room suddenly lit up, and Yi Xingchen quickly shrank inside. In fact, the light could not shine below. The couch was relatively short, and he was lying down, and he could only see the feet of people outside and the futon placed on the ground.

Judging from the number of feet, the seven or eight people entering the room were wearing Taoist priests' cloud boots, and one of them was a pair of boots worn by big feet, but they were different. They were actually military boots worn by Ming Dynasty military officers.

Yi Xingchen inherited the memory of his apprentice and was very clear about ancient costumes. He knew that the army was wearing special military boots, which were unique and could be recognized at a glance.

In the middle of the night, what did the military generals come to the Taoist temple to do?

Yi Xingchen immediately thought of someone, that is the person behind him who asked him to tell fortunes and find out the person behind him. Peng Qingchen said that he was an experience of the commander-in-law of the Wei, with his surname Wu. The hexagram shows that this Wu experience will appear in the temple here, meet with some people, and discuss things that cannot be seen.

Could it be that the person wearing military boots I saw now is the experience of Wu who was telling fortunes?

At this time, he saw a pair of Taoist priests' cloud boots walking to the soft collapse where he was hiding and sat down. The others sat cross-legged on the futon, and the military boots were sitting at the top of the side. Yi Xingchen could see their legs sitting on the futon from under the bed, but he couldn't see his face. It was safe to be so. He couldn't see them, and they probably couldn't see themselves under the bed.

At this time, the Taoist sitting on the soft collapse said in an old voice: "Master Wu Xiang, tell me about the situation last night to all the brothers. Let's think about where Lord Li is? Is there any worries about whether I have life or not."

A loud voice came, and it was the man wearing military boots from the direction: "Last night, I received a notice from our fellow disciples that the man in black who had been waiting for these days had really entered the Tongluoxiang house, but he seemed to know that there were mechanisms inside us, avoided the mechanisms, plagiarized from behind, and came up and killed two of our best martial arts brothers. And the brothers lured him into the house and wanted him to be in the center, but he did not fall for it, but instead ignited the house. When I heard this, I quickly led the team to the house. When I arrived outside the house, there was no sound of killing inside, and the whole house was already in a sea of ​​fire. I ordered the house to be surrounded by layers of layers, but I was not allowed to break in, because I was afraid that the brothers inside would fight with the church members in our army and cause accidental injuries."

After hearing this, Yi Xingchen realized that the government army suddenly came last night. It was not because they thought the robbers had come in, but because the Wu, who was in Cao's camp, was reported by the church members sent by the Dazhuo, and led the army to help, protect the White Lotus Sect and capture Mei Lengxiang. No wonder the government army arrived quickly and acted so quickly.

After hearing Wu's experience, he continued: "After I led my troops to surround the mansion, I brought a few brothers into checking the situation. I found that the brothers inside were killed, with more than ten corpses everywhere. All the houses in the mansion were lit. Lord Li told me that they were probably the thief who was specifically looking for bad luck in our White Lotus Sect. After the last time that guy suffered a great loss, he knew that his friend betrayed him and would definitely go to his friend's house in Tongluoxiang to find him for revenge. So he had already set up a mechanism. Lord Li personally took charge of this layout and must catch the thief. Unexpectedly, he discovered the mechanism and was not deceived, but killed almost all of our brothers who participated in the war. Lord Li was also missing."

At this time, another middle-aged man's voice came, saying: "The heaven and earth net array arranged by Lord Li himself. No matter how high a martial arts master enters, he will definitely die. How can such a strict mechanism trap be seen through by this thief? It is really incredible."

Another Taoist priest said: "Yes, we were killed and injured in this battle. This thief is really hateful, but I don't know why he repeatedly attacked me, the White Lotus Sect?"

The old man on the soft couch said: "This thief has extremely high martial arts skills, and the top brothers in our hall cannot compete with him. Moreover, he seems to be not only targeting our hall, but also being attacked by the other adjacent halls by the thief, and injured dozens of brothers. This person must be found as soon as possible and eliminated, otherwise, our brothers in our hall will be slaughtered."

The officer wearing military boots sighed and said, "Yes, as soon as I got the news, I immediately led the army to rush to surround the mansion, with the purpose of catching this guy, but I led people to search the entire mansion and didn't find this thief."

The old man on the soft couch said in a low voice, "Let's not talk about him for now. The most urgent thing is to find Master Li first and tell me what you are looking for."

The officer said, "After I led my brother into the mansion, I did not find the thief, so I began to count the casualties of the brothers in my church. None of the dozen brothers survived and all died under the sword of the thief. However, no master was found among them. Therefore, I concluded that the master was likely to be kidnapped by the thief. I have sent my brothers in the army to search for news, but as of now, there is no news about Master Li."

A Taoist priest said, "What did this thief kidnapped Lord Li? He wouldn't have to force us to ask about the relevant information of the White Lotus Sect and then rob us, right?"

As soon as these words were said, several other people whispered, all of whom felt that this possibility was the greatest. It must be that this person wanted to take out more information from the White Lotus Sect from Lord Li, and then kidnapped him. So they suggested to the old man on the soft couch to change the seat at the hall immediately, and at the same time, let the brothers in the sect change their residences to avoid falling into the hands of the thieves.

Next, they began to discuss how to change the hall, how to find the hall master, whether to report this to the branch owner, if they can't find the hall master, should they ask the branch owner to designate the agent hall master first, etc., and kept talking about it for an hour.

Yi Xingchen was very anxious when he hid under the soft collapse. Why did these people talk so badly? One thing was discussed for so long.

It was also late at night. Just as they were about to finish the discussion, suddenly, the old man on the couch screamed and threw himself forward from the soft couch and fell to the ground. Yi Xingchen looked under the bed and saw that it was a white-bearded old Taoist, whose head had fallen off, his hair was scattered, and a mouthful of blood was spurted out. The beard was covered in blood, staring at the top in horror.

At the same time, Yi Xingchen felt someone landing on the soft couch on his head standing, probably because of this man who suddenly attacked and seriously injured the white-bearded old Taoist.

Yi Xingchen smelled a faint fragrance between his nose, not the fragrance of any rouge powder, but the smell of wintersweet that was proud of frost and snow in the cold winter. This smell was very light and could not be smelled by others, and only he could feel it faintly.

And this fragrance made him look like a bright face as snow-capped as a snowy one. His skin was like cream, his facial features made of ice were very delicate, and his figure was slender and slim, and he was really graceful.

When Yi Xingchen thought of this pretty figure, he couldn't help but feel excited and almost screamed when he was surprised. Could it be her?
