Chapter 638 (1/2)
At this point.
In the palace of the state of Chu.
The palace is resplendent with bright pearls. A Kowloon tripod stands in the center of the hall. Curls of white smoke curl up from the tripod. Rows of candles are burning in the hall, and prayer flags are hanging all over the hall. On the futon in front of the Sanqing statue, a man in black robes and a bucket hat is sitting.
Before long, a young Taoist outside the hall walked in quickly and whispered in the man's ear.
”High priest, there's a letter.”
The high priest slowly opened his eyes. His pale face was covered with strange and complicated black patterns. His dark eyes were like a hole. But when those eyes stared at you, you would freeze in place involuntarily, as if you were fixed.
His lips were a little black, which made his already gloomy and terrible face more frightened.
He slowly stretched out his hand. It looked like an 80 year old man, stiff and slow.
The little Taoist priest quickly put a small note in the hands of the high priest. After seeing what was on the note, the corners of his lips rose slightly and drew a strange arc.
”Finally here...”
The spy's voice seemed to come out of his nose, which made people get goose bumps.
”Did the king ever know?”
”To the high priest, the king already knows.”
”What does the King say?”
”Naturally, welcome and treat the queen of Xiaoyao with sincerity.”
”Oh!” the strange laughter was like a crow at night. It made people's scalp numb in the daytime. ”The king was sincere.”
”Naturally, the king is very sincere. After all, he is the only son of King Xiaoyao. It's hard to find it. Naturally, he attaches great importance to it.” the little Taoist smiled with his face.
”Our king's superficial Kung Fu is unmatched. Even I want to admire it.”
The little Taoist hesitated for a long time and said, ”I'm afraid the king is waiting for the son of Xiaoyao king to return to Kyoto! I'm afraid you will...”
”What about me? Are you afraid they will deal with me together?” the high priest smiled conceited and obviously didn't pay attention to it. ”There's nothing I'm afraid of in the world.”
The little Taoist priest knew for a moment that the high priest had already taken countermeasures.
Just listen to the high priest: ”how about the mirror recently?”
”I've been lecturing in the big Buddhist temple, but the people who came from hearing the news blocked in front of the big Buddhist temple every day and refused to leave. They had to see the little monk who left the mirror.”
The high priest smiled and said, ”if so, let's arrange for him to preach in the middle of the Xuanmen. As for the time... It's set in three days.”
The little Taoist nodded, ”I'll do it now.”
……
Three days later.
The snow melted and the warm sun shone.
Lu Lingyu ran back from the front on his horse and said, ”master, Kyoto is ahead. We are going to enter the city soon.”
Chu Zhi opened the curtain and looked at the flag flying on the wall from a distance. The soldiers in iron armor were like a copper wall.
”Finally!” Chu Zhi said slowly.
”Yes!” Lu Lingyu nodded. ”It's not easy.”
Chu Zhi took a rest here and there. He also spent a new year's Eve in Qingcheng. It's not a hurry. It's obviously a sightseeing trip.
Chu Zhi glanced at Lu Lingyu: ”don't think I don't know what you're talking about.”
”I dare not say anything.” Lu Lingyu smiled.
Soon, the team stopped in front of the city gate. After verifying their identity, they entered the city.
