Faced with everyone's gaze, Monk Yixin spoke in a gentle tone: "This underground palace originally belonged to Bairi Mansion."
Listening to his words, more than half of the dozen or twenty people around him had the word "disbelief" written on their faces.
Monk Yixin turned a blind eye and said slowly:
"Actually, this underground palace has existed since the poor monk established the temple. It was built when Jin Huan first arrived in Cliff City and his business was bleak. Later, when the White House came under the influence, this place was in a semi-abandoned state. Yes. The monks in this temple knew nothing about it until Bai Ri Mansion monitored the activities in the temple through this underground palace, and then they followed the clues and discovered the location of this underground palace."
After a pause, he continued: "At that time, Bairi Mansion was at its peak, and it was difficult for our temple to find justice, so we endured this and spent a sum of money to buy the underground palace. We were afraid that Bairi Mansion was familiar with the layout of the underground palace. This is not good for our temple. After many years of renovation, it has changed beyond recognition compared to the original time. And it goes without saying that there are also some secrets of the temple in this underground palace. I will not say more here."
Listening to what Monk Isin said about having a nose and eyes, those present fell silent even though they did not fully believe it.
Shi Song turned around, glanced at He Qing in the sky, nodded and said: "According to the master's statement, there should be records of this in Bairi Mansion, so I will order someone to check it. As for this place, you might as well How about being led by the master and taking us inside?
Monk Yixin agreed: "The elimination of demons is the internal affairs of each sect, and the water purification altar will naturally not fall behind others."
Then he pointed to the exposed tunnel and said: "This place is a confusing dead end with internal mechanisms that are not connected to the entire underground palace. How about we go to the entrance and check each one?"
This Shi Song, however, cannot make his own opinions. He first looked at He Qing, but saw that the female cultivator had no expression at all. Then he looked at Yu Ci, and this time he finally responded.
"Soldiers are very fast, and step by step is a waste of time. If the demon is still among them, who knows whether it will take this opportunity to escape?"
Yu Ci spoke coldly, not giving Monk Yixin any face. His attitude, in the eyes of the sect leaders, immediately connected with the tense atmosphere in the city in the past two days, and the eyes he looked at Monk Isin changed for a while.
But Monk Yixin was still able to hold his own. He clasped his hands together and said in a harmonious voice: "It's the poor monk who didn't think well. What is the plan of Immortal Yu?"
"Just go down and see what the demon's hiding place will look like. First find the remaining clues of the demon, and then focus on the search. As for the restriction of the organs in the underground palace, it will be arranged by Master Isin. Let’s stop it first.”
After a pause, he grinned and said solemnly: "Anyway, the majestic atmosphere of the cliff city is no longer what it was when the White House was there. These underground palace dark rooms will be of little use in the future!"
Everyone around him was shocked, but Monk Yixin showed extraordinary psychological quality and his voice remained steady: "Yu Xianchang is right."
Determining the strategy, He Qing and Gan Shizhen finally fell into place. They didn't raise any objections to Yu Ci's arrangements. They just made some arrangements, with He Qing taking the lead and Gan Shizhen taking the lead. The abilities of the two Buxu monks were enough to cope with any unexpected situation.
Most of the monks present knew the art of Earth Escape, but there was no need for those followers to go down. Only a few sect leaders went down. The only exception was the Xuanyin Sect. Shanjiao may have felt that her own strength was insufficient, so she ordered Xiang Nu to follow. In response, He Qing glanced at Xiang Nu, his eyes lingering on Xiang Nu for a while, and said nothing.
Monk Isin had previously lifted the restrictions on the surrounding institutions, and the group went directly to the twenty-foot-deep underground, where He Qing determined that the demon once hid.
This is a rather spacious secret room, sealed tightly, but the utensils inside are thickly covered with dust. Apparently no one has lived in it for a long time. However, a very clear imprint was left on the thick dust, and the imprint is still fresh.
Several sect leaders were all experienced people. When they saw these marks, they all stood still. Only He Qing floated forward like a feather, and his slender figure did not bring up a trace of wind or traces on the dust. Nor was it affected in any way.
"The stench of demons."
He Qing spoke coldly, looking around the room, trying to find the demon's movement trajectory.
Yu Ci’s research on demons is far less sophisticated than He Qing’s, so it doesn’t take much thought. But at this time, he still secretly winked to Shi Song and Hu Dan, asking them to pay attention to Monk Yixin's movements, and they also understood it.
At this time, Monk Isin remained calm, like a fortress of ice and rocks, without even moving an eyebrow. But the more he behaves like this, the more strange it becomes: Even if he is innocent, when everyone is doubting him, doesn't he have the slightest awareness that "he may be wronged"?
For a moment, He Qing came to the conclusion that the demon had indeed been lurking here for a short period of time, and cleverly used the nearby restrictions to obscure its information. It can be seen from this that this monster is unusual, and it is definitely not the kind of thing with muscles stuffed in its head.
"Monsters are born of the hostility of heaven and earth, and are violent and bloodthirsty by nature. Therefore, it is much more difficult to develop spiritual intelligence than other creatures. But once they are enlightened, their grades will be extraordinary. This monster, at least, is a return elixir. Cultivation..."
He Qing's finger drew a line in the void, which was the trajectory of the demon's departure from the secret room: "It used earth to escape and exited from the side wall... Where is that place?"
Monk Isin replied: "It should be a corridor."
"Go and have a look."
The group also followed the demon's movement pattern and arrived at the next door. Sure enough, as Monk Isin said, this was a corridor with a slight curvature. No need for He Qing to explain at this time, everyone also saw the traces left by the demon running wildly in the corridor.
After being detected by the "Fa Tian Jue Lao", the demon was obviously very nervous and had no intention of covering up his traces. Of course, there is no point in doing so.
After walking some distance along the corridor, the traces left by the demon disappeared. He Qing soon had the answer this time: the demon used the unearthed escape technique again, moved it from the side, and began to move in an directionless manner. That should be the time when He Qingyun made Fa Tian Jue Lao search the most frequently. The demon had to use all possible means to escape from the net of heaven and earth.
At this time, in front of everyone is the end of the corridor, where an iron gate is installed. He Qing glanced over and said nothing. He was walking forward when Monk Yi Xin suddenly said:
"Please wait a moment."
Under people's gazes, Isin said softly: "Further ahead is the area frequently used by this temple. There are more restrictive mechanisms there, many of which cannot be closed from the inside. Although you are highly skilled, even if It won't hurt if the mechanism is triggered, but it won't be a good idea to make the underground palace a mess. It won't be too late to wait until the poor monk informs the disciples outside to close the restrictions inside."
"Come and go again, the time will never be short. In the meantime, the demon will be gone, so what?"
The one who spoke gloomily was Dong Yan, and there are always many people who add insult to injury. This was true for the Xuanyin Sect, and it is the same here at the Pure Water Altar.
"It won't take too long." Monk Yixin responded lightly, but looked at He Qing.
He Qing had no expression on his face and just waved his hand to let Isin do it. Seeing her attitude, Dong Yan stopped talking.
Only people like Yu Ci and Shi Song who know the inside story know that He Qing's attitude is actually to let Isin do more and talk more, so as to find out the flaws.
Monk Yi Xin saluted He Qing and walked to the front of the team. He did not know what method he used. The door at the end of the corridor in front suddenly opened wide. The two monks who should be the guards of the underground palace were clearly startled. Qi turned his head, but there was light on the two monks' side, but the corridor was completely dark, and the light contrast was so strong that they couldn't see what was going on inside.
At this time, Monk Yixin took out a large bead for lighting. With this light, the monks outside could see the person clearly and saluted hurriedly. However, when they saw the darkness in the corridor behind, they were momentarily confused. It's all a bit baffling.
The monks here are all sharp-sighted people. Seeing the contrast between the inside and outside of the corridor, they know that what monk Isin said before is at least 70% to 80% true.
Monk Yixin didn't waste any time and called someone to go up there and send a message to the monk Chengyan in the temple, asking him to close the forbidden mechanism in the underground palace. The disciple hurried away, and within a quarter of an hour, people heard faint vibrations in the underground palace. After a moment of sensing, they knew that most of the surrounding restrictions had been closed, and the remaining ones were independent arrangements that had nothing to do with the main body. There was Monk Yisin Now, there is no need to worry about them making a mess.
During this period, everyone was not standing still, but walking slowly in the underground palace. There are no restrictions on this frequently used area. Everyone is curious about the living conditions of the monks in the underground palace.
Yu Ci was more concerned about Monk Yixin himself, but at this time, this calm guy did not say a word and just followed beside him. Instead, it was the guarding disciple who had just left behind. His eyes wandered, and his two strands were fighting. He looked extremely... Panic.
The more he behaves like this, the more it means there is a problem here. Before Yu Ci could examine it carefully, he already had the answer - He Qing in front did not know what method he used. With a bang, the entire stone wall on the left collapsed, and there were a series of screams and curses, but Soon it was as if their throats had been cut, all cut off.
Yu Ci looked over there, and behind the swirling dust and smoke, he could see how many people there were. It's just that they all looked shabby. What's even more ridiculous is that most of them are naked, and they are both men and women. The former are all bald and have scars, so they are clearly ordained monks.
At this time, the shocked people inside finally came to their senses. Suddenly, a woman broke free from the monk in front of her and rushed towards her, crying. A leader started wailing all over the room, which was unbearable to hear.
The woman who rushed towards her was stopped by Shan Jiao early on. The Xuanyin Sect is still very good at dealing with ordinary women, but there is no need to ask at the moment. Even a fool knows what it is like.
He Qing looked back and stared coldly at Isin next to him. It's rare that the monk still looks calm. He just puts his hands together and chants the name of the Buddha, but he looks solemn.
"Keep looking!"
He Qing spoke calmly and turned around first. At this moment, seven or eight monks inside all fell to the ground, their breath cut off. The crying women were also shocked, and the whole room fell into silence.
He Qing could ignore it, but Yu Ciqi had to take the initiative to clean up the situation. He discussed with Shi Song for a few words, then summoned a few followers on the ground in the distance to come down to deal with the matter, and directly sent the men and horses at the Water Purification Temple to Treat it as air.
Monk Isin said nothing and silently stretched out his hand to guide everyone in the direction.
Yu Ci looked at the monk and shook his head, feeling quite impressed. He took two steps and frowned as he listened to the crying in his ears. When I was in the Shuangxian Sect, I had vaguely seen such a situation.
By the way, we have to guard against these monks breaking their jars.
With a thought in his mind, he released a star of divine will and placed it in the minds of everyone here, so that if there was an accident, he could respond in time.
Two steps further, his heart skipped a beat, and a chill enveloped his heart.
