Chapter 716 Past Events

After retrieving Qingyun, the two continued towards Jinshan Temple.

This time there were no obstacles on the way.

Xia Yanzhen's shot from the meteor killed not only the snake demon, but also two half-demon at the level of a big demon. There was also a dangerous big demon in the lake that was also destroyed by his shot.

The only ones left are snake-men and fish-men, who no longer pose a danger.

Xia Yanzhen and Gu Taihe came to the vicinity of Jinshan Temple and stopped.

The Jinshan Temple in the Peach Blossom Spring is not as big as the one outside, and the mountain road is quite narrow. It is the Jinshan Temple a hundred years ago.

Of course, it is still larger than the current site of Jinshan Temple a hundred years ago.

After all, Jinshan Temple was flooded once a hundred years ago.

What stopped Xia Yanzhen and Gu Taihe was not the new half-demon monster near Jinshan Temple.

But there are a lot of corpses here.

These corpses are in a mummified state, kneeling in the direction of Jinshan Temple. Looking at their posture, they seem to be worshiping and repenting.

Corpses were scattered all over the mountain road and around it. Looking around, it was impossible to see the number clearly for a while.

Gu Taihe passed by the group of corpses and seemed to hear bursts of crying.

It's as if these corpses are not dead, but their souls are trapped here, suffering and suffering.

The cold aura gave Gu Taihe the urge to take action.

Ordinary people would just want to run away, but Gu Taihe was a warrior, so he naturally wanted to fight back.

He suppressed the uncomfortable feeling and quickened his pace.

The gate of Jinshan Temple is open.

There were also kneeling mummies inside. In the main hall, the Buddha statues were broken and scattered on the ground.

Behind it is the Demon-Conquering Tower that has been destroyed in the outside world.

The kneeling mummies in the temple all the way to the Demon-Conquering Tower.

The Demon Conquering Tower is the center and spreads to the surroundings.

And the one at the front, kneeling in front of the Demon-Conquering Tower, is Fa Ming!

"Monk!"

Seeing Fa Ming, Gu Taihe quickened his pace.

Fa Ming, who had his forehead on the ground, "heard" the sound, slowly raised his head, and turned to "see".

Gu Taihe's eyes narrowed: "What happened?"

Where Faming's eyes were, there was a black hole, with blood flowing out of it. His eyes were gouged out and ceased to exist.

Not only that, Faming also lost his ears and arms.

Blood stained his yellow monk's robe.

The whole person looked miserable.

Gu Taihe walked a little faster and came to Fa Ming: "How did you end up like this?"

He was surprised to find that Fa Ming not only had no arms.

Even his legs were gone.

It's just that compared to the arms that were severed from the shoulders, Fa Ming still retained his thighs, and the area below the knees disappeared.

Under the cover of the monk's robe, it is not so obvious.

"ah……"

Faming opened his mouth and made a vague sound.

Gu Taihe saw that Fa Ming also had no tongue in his mouth, his eyes were gouged out, his tongue was cut off, his ears were cut off, and his limbs were severed.

The whole person was tortured.

Gu Taihe put his hand on the handle of the knife and didn't understand why Fa Ming ended up in such a predicament.

Even if there are strong enemies in this peach blossom garden, Fa Ming cannot defeat them.

With his strength, he could definitely commit suicide.

Rather than survive and endure such torture.

Fa Ming's belly resonated and he said, "Gu Gang Leader, you are here."

"Who hurt you?" Gu Taihe asked, "What's going on in this Peach Blossom Land? You're hiding it from us?"

The second half of the sentence was asked for Xia Yanzhen.

"you?"

Fa Ming asked in confusion, "Who else is coming?"

Apart from the visible injuries, Fa Ming had no other injuries, and his strength was still there. Except for Gu Taiqing, his scattered consciousness did not capture anyone else.

"Mr. Xia."

"Master Xia is here too?"

Fa Ming was surprised and said that he did not sense the real existence of Xia Yan at all.

After careful sensing, through some changes in the external environment, I felt that there was indeed another person.

"Master Xia is here to collect debts." Gu Taihe's mouth moved but he did not make a sound, reminding Fa Ming.

Old monk, you should not be old and confused yet, you know what to say and what to do.

Fa Ming was stunned for a moment before he realized what Gu Taihe meant.

He went straight into the Peach Blossom Land without even leaving a word.

The search for a paradise was put on hold.

After receiving the money and not doing anything, Xia Yanzhen naturally came to collect the debt.

Judging from Gu Taihe's performance, Mr. Xia might be more powerful than they imagined - no, I'm afraid.

Some of the movements just now were caused by Mr. Xia.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Xia, I got lost in this peach blossom garden and forgot to look for it." Fa Ming apologized immediately.

"Tell me what happened, including this peach blossom garden."

Xia Yanzhen said.

There is still a lot of time, let's listen to the story.

"Yeah, tell me."

Following Xia Yanzhen's words, a voice suddenly came from the Demon Conquering Tower.

High-pitched and sharp, with a trace of suppressed but uncontrollable madness, hysterical.

And it was full of malice, almost condensing into a substantial impact.

Gu Taihe's face turned pale, the blood flow around his body was not smooth, and his body became stiff and numb for a moment.

There was even blood flowing out of Faming's eyes, mouth and nose.

Only Xia Yanzhen was not affected in any way.

However, he still heard the sound coming from the vibration resonance.

"Who?" Xia Yanzhen asked.

But the voice stopped coming, and he didn't answer Xia Yanzhen's words.

Gu Taihe held knives in both hands and looked at the Demon-Conquering Tower with great fear.

There is an extremely powerful being imprisoned here!

"Mr. Xia."

Fa Ming swallowed the blood and quickly explained, "That day, you asked me to go find the Peach Blossom Spring..."

That day.

After Gu Taihe left, doubts lingered in Faming's heart. There was a voice in his heart telling him to go to the Demon-Conquering Tower and go to the deepest part of the Demon-Conquering Tower.

There, Faming saw the imprisoned snake demon.

The awakened snake demon!

This snake demon did not enter Fa Ming Guan, but Fa Ming's senior was imprisoned in it.

After entering the tower, he has been sleeping the whole time.

Unexpectedly, Faming walked here on a whim and saw the snake demon waking up for the first time.

Seeing Fa Ming, the snake demon laughed wildly: "Monk, are you here to die?"

"We know each other?"

Fa Ming looked at the snake demon and asked, the doubts and uneasiness in his heart becoming more and more obvious.

It seemed like he had forgotten something important.

"Ha! Don't you remember me? Come on, come closer and take a closer look at me!" the snake demon roared.

Faming had great self-control and could see that the snake demon was extremely weak, so he took the initiative to approach.

As a result, the snake demon sent Fa Ming directly to the Peach Blossom Spring.

Xia Yanzhen listened to Fa Ming's words quietly.

What the snake demon said was similar to Fa Ming's. The difference was that the snake demon said that he was forced, while Fa Ming said that he was sent to the Peach Blossom Land by the snake demon on his own initiative.

"As soon as you enter the Peach Blossom Land..."

Fa Ming continued to speak.

As soon as he entered the Peach Blossom Spring, Fa Ming felt the world spin, and in his mind, there was severe pain deep in his consciousness.

Something is cracking, and dusty memories are emerging...

A hundred years ago, Yuhang was also a prosperous and bustling city.

There is a little-known Jinshan Temple on the mountain.

There is a monk in Jinshan Temple who is also a monk. His name is Kongchen and he is the master of Faming.

On this day, two snake monsters in human form came to Yuhang City. They looked at the world curiously like children.

The powerful Kong Chen saw the two "little" snake demons, and saw that they were covered in clear light and had never eaten humans. Maybe it was because of the advice of an expert, or because he was successful in cultivation, so he didn't care.

However, the two snake demons are not familiar with the world, and their appearance is good.

Unavoidably causing trouble, Kongchen stepped in to calm it down, and Faming, who was still a child at that time, got to know the two snake monsters.

He shouted Sister Bai and Sister Qing, and from time to time he went down the mountain to play with others.

The two demons lived in Yuhang for more than half a year.

Sister Bai She fell in love with a scholar and got married.

After Kongchen found out, he specifically reminded White Snake that human beings and monsters have different paths.

White Snake didn't pay attention.

But after one year of marriage, the scholar became very weak and fell ill every day.

White Snake tried many miraculous medicines, but none worked. Recalling Kongchen's words, he came to ask for help.

Kong Chen told White Snake that the root of the problem lies with her.

She is a great demon. Even if she transforms into a human being, her demonic aura is still there. If she has been living with an ordinary scholar day and night for a long time, if the demonic aura invades, the scholar will inevitably die early.

The only solution to this matter is for the scholar to practice martial arts or Taoism to strengthen himself so that he is not affected by the evil spirit.

Of course, if the white snake leaves the scholar, the scholar can slowly recover.

Scholars naturally do not have the talent for martial arts and spiritual cultivation.

White Snake couldn't find a solution and was at a loss.

In fact, Kong Chen concealed a way, which was for White Snake to abandon his cultivation and lose all his demonic power while only maintaining his human body.

In this way, the demon's power is almost nonexistent, and its influence on the scholar will naturally become very small.

But the price is that it becomes weaker and at the same time becomes a mobile "treasure house".

For warriors and monks, it is "Tang Monk Meat".

Warrior monks kill people for food because they are demons, but killing demons is not.

Not even if the person you kill is a harmless demon.

White Snake is extremely smart, and Kong Chen quickly thought of this without saying anything.

Therefore, she decisively chose to dissipate her demonic power and became an ordinary or even weak woman.

At the same time, I also kept a little thought.

There is a compassionate Master Kongchen in Jinshan Temple. As long as they don't leave Yuhang, he will definitely protect them.

And Xiaoqing is here too, so he can protect her.

After losing all his strength, the scholar's health really improved, and White Snake was even pregnant with a child.

Originally everything was developing in a good direction.

However, in the same year, there was a serious epidemic in Yuhang.

Kongchen himself was not affected, but he could not protect others. Even Faming was infected with the plague.

Kongchen and Xiaoqing left Yuhang, trying to find a way to save people.

White Snake thought of a way to use his own essence and blood as medicine, and successfully saved Fa Ming.

After Faming was treated, he faced many questions from his brothers and uncles, and told him that the "Xu Family Medical Center" could save people.

Afterwards, the news spread.

Countless people came forward to seek medicine.

The white snake bled again and again and fell weakly.

The scholar told him that the medicine would be derived from his wife's blood, hoping that he would no longer be forced to do so.

However, some knowledgeable people discovered that the white snake was actually a demon.

A "life-saving atrocity" unfolded.

When Kong Chen and Xiao Qing came back, they saw the disappeared White Snake couple and the medical center in a mess.

Even the unborn child was not spared and disappeared without a trace.
