"If the three of you are willing to stay, then stay. If you want to leave, then leave. The old monk has no choice but to offend you!" The old monk said to the other monks, "Still not getting out of the way?"

Lao Yu cupped his hands and bowed: "I presume that old master is the Chiba (abbot) of Cangbaron Temple?"

The old monk nodded. "That's right, this old monk is right. Please forgive me for offending him."

Yu Jingyan observed the old monk, but was unable to sense any Qi from him, he did not know if the old monk's cultivation was too high, or if he was truly not a cultivator.

"Brother Yu, let's go. Don't give more trouble to others." Silang urged.

"Alright, then we'll be leaving. Masters, please do what you need to do. There's no need to send us off." After Yu Jingyan finished speaking, he pulled Chen Xi and his group from the left and right of the temple.

"Master, it's already dark. If they go out now, they will definitely be in danger!" the High Lama said anxiously.

Although his voice was soft, it couldn't escape the ears of Yu Jingyan and Silang who had exceptional hearing.

"Eh, that Lama seems to be concerned about us. Did I misunderstand him?" Lao Yu thought.

Silang turned his head to look behind him, and immediately asked: "Did you hear the Lama's words too?"

Silang nodded his head, and asked softly: "What did he say, is he scolding us for not following the rules?"

"No, I'm just worried that it's not safe to walk at night." Lao Yu said.

Arriving at the Wuling car, Lao Yu said: "We are not going, we are waiting here. This temple must have some secrets, and these secrets must be related to the Nine eyes Heavenly Bead."

Silang and Chen Xi naturally noticed the abnormality in the Cangbaron Temple. In a place where no one came to in the vast prairie, there was such a majestic temple. There were many believers in the temple, but every evening, they would drive away the pilgrims.

The three of them took out the meat buns they bought on the way and started eating with the mineral water.

Ten cages of steamed buns were finished in no time.

Lao Yu kept on urging Silang and Chen Xi to eat more, saying that there would be a fierce battle tonight.

"Brother Yu, what do you mean by vicious battle? Are they the monks in the temple? Could it be that they are all demons and devils?" Silang asked.

"I still don't know who the enemy is, but believe me, wherever there is treasure there will be danger. This is the experience I gained from using the Treasure Seeking Arts." Lao Yu said.

Chen Xi took out a cigarette, lit it up, and lightly patted Silang's shoulder: "Don't worry, when the three of us join forces, that puppeteer would only be able to run away."

Silang curled his lips and thought: "Brother Yu knows how to use techniques and can use Thunder Talisman s. I am the fastest sword in Kang District and my speed is extremely fast.

The Wuling Car was stopped not far from the Cangbaron Temple. The temple door was already closed, and looking at the closed doors of the temple, Lao Yu suddenly had a feeling that something was amiss.

"Perhaps it is only safe in the temple. After that door closes, we will be in danger." But Lao Yu did not say it out loud, afraid that he would misjudge it and affect his morale.

Chen Xi smoked three cigarettes consecutively, and after driving for half a day, he felt sore all over his body. Looking at the time, only ten minutes had passed since they finished eating their steamed buns.

"This night seems to be exceptionally long." Chen Xi muttered.

"Brother Chen, it's a little cold. You can raise the window." Silang said.

Chen Xi frowned and muttered: "I have f * cking kept my window closed this whole time. Lao Yu, it's indeed a little cold.

"It's not cooling down, the enemy is coming." Lao Yu's voice trembled a little. Silang and Chen Xi couldn't help but tremble as well …

"Brother Yu, what's going on?"

"What a strong Yin Qi. It seems to be caused by Yin Xie. However, why does this Yin Qi have a deep defensive power?" Lao Yu muttered.

Chen Xi: "Lao Yu, what are you talking about, what meaning does it have, do you mean that there are ghosts protecting this place? Could it be the Nine eyes Heavenly Bead s that were protecting him? "

Lao Yu declined to comment, and said: "It might be a treasure that is protecting us looking for, no, the miasma is getting stronger, no wonder those monks want to chase us away, this level of miasma is not something we can handle, get off now!"

Lao Yu's face became more and more serious, while Chen Xi and Silang both expressed their confusion, as they felt very cold.

After the three of them got off the car, they immediately felt the chill up by several levels, and they were all trembling. Waves of cold wind assaulted them, causing them to feel the pressure, Lao Yu took the lead and ran towards the Cangbaron Temple, Silang and Chen Xi followed closely behind.

"Quickly enter the temple, maybe only this Cangbaron Temple can protect us from the corrosion of the yin qi!"

Arriving at the temple's door, Lao Yu knocked on it with a "Knock Knock Knock".

The gate of the yard was quickly opened and an old monk with a benevolent expression stood at the entrance and said: "The three of you have returned. You must truly understand that the night road is not easy to walk on now, right? "Come on in."

Lao Yu's face had an awkward smile, after thanking them, he entered the temple with Silang and Chen Xi, and under the lead of the old monk, they arrived at the main hall.

Entering the hall, the gloomy and cold feeling instantly disappeared. In front of the huge and dignified Buddha statue, Lao Yu felt at ease.

Currently, the main hall was filled with monks. The monks were seated in a circle, with a prayer mat placed in the middle of the circle.

The old monk standing at the entrance of the main hall nodded his head in satisfaction. Then with a leap, he pulled himself out of the ground, and after turning in midair, he steadily landed in the center of the praying mat.

Lao Yu and the rest were all shocked by the old monk's beautiful movements, they did not expect that the old monk's physique, which seemed to be past the age of ten, could actually be so powerful.

"The three of you aren't ordinary people. May I know your name?" The old monk spoke up.

The Great Lama who had gotten into an argument with Lao Yu and the rest earlier sat on the left side of Lao Yu, and did not express any dissatisfaction or ridicule towards the three of them.

"Reporting to the esteemed monk, my name is Yu Jingyan. These two are my friends, Silang and Chen Xi." Lao Yu said respectfully.

The old monk nodded. "Your surname is Wu Yu?"

Yu Jingyan replied, "That's right, Yu Ji's Wu Yu."

The old monk's eyes shone brightly, his face revealing a smile, and said: "Looks like it was arranged by Buddha. Mr Yu, what are you here for?"

Yu Jingyan stammered: "Nothing, just driving by myself. I saw a temple here and came over."

The old monk said, "That's all?"

At this moment, under the gaze of the old monk, Lao Yu suddenly felt a little guilty.

'This person seems to be able to see through my thoughts … ' Could it be the Buddha's Eye that everyone was talking about? " Lao Yu thought.

Silang and Chen Xi did not say anything, the two of them following Yu Jingyan's lead.

Yu Jingyan: "That's right, it's like this. Old Master, don't think too much."

The old monk said, "Since it's just passing by, why are you still refusing to leave? Why do you have to wait until it's dark before leaving?"

"Isn't this purely out of curiosity? Our Cangbaron Temple is far away, but it's filled with incense. We want to learn more about this temple." Yu Jingyan continued to spout nonsense.

The old monk said, "Alright, then why did you come back? Could it be that the car ran out of gas?"

Yu Jingyan scratched his head and said: "Master, the carriage does have oil, it's just that it's a little cold outside, we wish to spend the night here."

The old monk said: "I believe that Mr Yu and my two companions have sensed the Yin Qi outside? Even with Mister's cultivation, it would still be difficult for you to resist yin aura of that level. "

Yu Jingyan opened his eyes wide, he knew that the old lama had truly seen through himself, and did not try to hide it anymore, and spoke straightforwardly: "Master is an expert from the outside, I originally came here to look for a treasure, but after inspecting it in the temple, I was unable to find the location of the treasure, without waiting for us to search more carefully, the master told us to leave, I wanted to find the location of the treasure, and that was why I was not leaving before nightfall. When we went out earlier, I was preparing to search for more treasures, but sensed the overflowing Yin Qi from outside, making it difficult for us to take even a single step.

The old monk sighed and said in a deep voice, "Treasure Seeking? I, this old monk, have stayed in the Cangbaron Temple for most of my life, but I have never heard of any treasure in the temple.

Yu Jingyan immediately shook his head: "No, no. According to my judgement, that treasure should be ownerless."

The old monk nodded his head, and said: "Although Cangbaron Temple does not have any treasures, it has a special meaning, you all should have heard of the Twelve Monastery's legends, and the Cangbaron Temple is the temple where the Rakshasi's heart was suppressed. Therefore, although this temple is remote, it has no lack of believers, and has been flourishing for many years."

(For a detailed account of Zhenmo Temple and the burial site mentioned below, see the author's other work, The Book of Lore Seal.)

Yu Jingyan looked at Silang and Chen Xi who were to his right, and asked: "Master, what's with the Evil Qi?"

The old monk continued, "There are many pilgrims in the Cangbaron Temple, but every night before dark, the temple would beat the evening drum and urge the pilgrims to leave, precisely because of the dark energy outside. "According to my master, Cangbaron Temple is one of the Twelve Monastery of Demons, and many people have died in a fierce battle that shook the world. Those who had died in battle were Chinese, had died in the Tibetan, and were born with golden hair and blue eyes, and their souls were constantly revolving around the temple. Thus, there would always be a cold wind that blew around every night in this area, and the spirits would wander around everywhere.

Lao Yu nodded his head, he knew in his heart that this person had died because of heavy grievances, and that his soul might be in the vicinity of the battlefield for a long time. At the same time, he also understood why he could not see a single village within a few miles of the Cangbaron Temple.

"Master, will you be alright if you hide in the temple?" Yu Jingyan asked.

The old monk shook his head: "That is hard to say, normal lonely ghosts would not dare to behave so atrociously in the temple, but in Mr Yu, you should have already noticed, the cold wind that is everywhere outside is not something that normal ghosts can cause."

Yu Jingyan: "I can feel a hint of protective power mixed within the boundless yin energy."

The old monk said: "Yes, according to legend, the Nazi leader Hitler's beloved general Himmler once led the elite German troops to attack, intending to do something bad to the Cangbaron Temple. At that time, Master Fu Changqing, who was the head of the Mongol Treasury, led the troops to resist, and the German firearms are excellent, and two top experts came along with him, both sides were killed in fierce battles, the army led by the Fortune Great People lost thousands of their troops, and the German army was completely annihilated. Only Himmler was able to escape, and then, not waiting for Master Fu Changqing's army to arrive to catch breath, the enemy of the Fortune Great Man once again arrived.

Although he had heard rumors of Himmler coming here to hide, he did not know that Himmler had led the German army and engaged in a fierce battle with the warriors stationed there, much less knew who the old monk Fu Changqing was.
