Chapter 471: Corrupt Beast (3)

Although the dream of the rabbit demon experienced at night was really terrifying, after the sun rose the next day, Pu Zixuan also threw this scene behind his mind and normally went to the scenery in Chengde Summer Resort that he had not yet visited yesterday after the sun rose.

After this day, the Thirty-Six Scenerys were visited, and Pu and Chen stopped staying for more. They told the Fashi Shanga that they would seriously write the poem of setting the scenery after they returned and hand it over to Shuntian Mansion. Then they said goodbye to this great housekeeper like Maitreya Buddha and left Chengde Summer Resort.

In an inn in Dagou Town, 18 miles away from Chengde Mountain Resort, Zhu Yuanliang, Su Sanniang, Sun Xiaoshu, Yu Xiangdi, Shadali, Zhou Faning and his three children were anxiously waiting for news about Pu Zixuan and Chen Shuqing for two consecutive days. Especially Zhou Faning, his home is far from here, and everyone did not want to take him and walk with his three children, but he was anxious about the child's condition. He cried and made a fuss and had to follow him. He had to know the truth about Chengde Mountain Resort. Then Pu Zixuan felt pity and agreed to accompany him.

In the evening, Pu Chen and his wife returned to the inn and immediately summoned five companions and Zhou Faning to Pu Zixuan's room to discuss matters.

Zhu Yuanliang came a step earlier than Zhou Faning. As soon as he entered the door, he couldn't wait to ask: "How is it, have you found Samantabhadra Bodhisattva?"

Before the two could speak, Zhou Faning hurried into the house again. He was the most concerned about the child's condition. He asked when he entered the door: "Two masters, have you found the culprit of the baby's condition?"

Zhu Yuanliang was very unhappy when he saw his question being interrupted. He turned around and glanced at Zhou Faning, and said angrily: "Don't you know what it means to come first and then arrive? Besides, we came north of the Great Wall to find what we need. We just asked about your family's affairs. Why are you anxious?"

Zhou Faning had already asked for help, and his momentum was much weaker than Zhu Yuanliang, so he had to smile bitterly: "Brother, am I worried about the baby's condition? Alas, we miserable people have nothing to look forward to in our lives. We hope that our children will be safe, understand us..."

"Haha, it seems like someone is not a miserable person..."

Zhu Yuanliang was about to make a few more talks with Zhou Faning, but Pu Zixuan advised with a kind look: "Okay, don't bother you, let's tell you the answer first: we have neither found Samantabhadra Bodhisattva nor found the culprit of harming the child, but we have not gained nothing. As for what happened to us at Chengde Summer Resort, I will tell you in detail after we get there."

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanliang and Zhou Faning both showed disappointment and stopped quarreling. Soon, a group of people gathered together, and Pu Zixuan informed everyone about how the two entered the villa, how they met Hu Gu, He Tianao, and the story about Emperor Qianlong explained by Shang A, the Dharma Master of Yuechi.

After Pu Zixuan finished his explanation, Chen Shuqing immediately added: "Now, the biggest doubt is the moon pool. Hu Gu and I agreed that the reflection of the moon formed in the moon pool is absolutely not ordinary. Moreover, every time we mention the three words "moon pool", the expression of the Dharma Shanga is also extremely unnatural, and the moon in the pond must be very informative." Then, he asked Shadali again: "What do you think of that pool?"

Shadali thought for a while and said, "I know the existence of the Moon Pond, but like you, I only heard the story of the Fashi Shanga telling the story of the minister Gaozong opera, but now looking back, when he was telling that story, his expression was not very natural, as if he didn't believe that the story was true. Therefore, after hearing what you said, I had an assumption."

Pu Zixuan's eyes lit up immediately: "What hypothesis?"

"Yesterday, after you left here, we purified envoys tried to search for Chen Shuqing's demonic aura, but at a certain moment, her demonic aura disappeared. At that time, you should have reached the territory of Chengde Mountain Resort. There are no small-leaf red beans or small-leaf red sandalwood trees in Chengde Mountain Resort. Why did your breath suddenly disappear? I think Ouyang Zhiguo once said that the demon king north of the Great Wall does exist, but his existence is the most important thing in the court.

High secret, no inquiries are allowed. I can only think that those woods that can cover up the breath are all under the villa, and there must be an underground palace below. The function of the underground palace is to protect the demon king!" At this point, Shadali couldn't help biting his lip and said indignantly, "Yes, our ancestors of the Jurchens have already had some connection with the demon world, and have been using that palace to conceal! The key to connecting the earthly palace and the underground palace is the moon pool!"

Shadali's hypothesis coincides with Aunt Peng Si. Both women are members of the former Baoyiwei. They have many common experiences that they all draw the same conclusion.

Pu Zixuan and others fell into deep thoughts in an instant, but Zhou Faning seemed to have no idea as many people. He just yelled stubbornly: "What are you talking about? I only care about how my three dolls can be rescued?"

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanliang became furious again, so he simply put the Vajra Demon Subduing Wrist on Zhou Faning's shoulder and said sarcastically: "My brother risked his life to go to the place where the emperor was old and retrieved this information. You are not satisfied... You care so much about your child, otherwise you can go to Chengde Mountain Resort in person to see it, find the underground palace, and then personally destroy the monster that harms your child."

Zhou Faning was immediately scared by Zhu Yuanliang and his face turned blue, but Pu Zixuan smiled leisurely and said, "Stop talking, Fatty, I was about to send you and Zhou Faning to find the entrance to the underground palace."

When Zhu Yuanliang heard this, he immediately pointed his finger at Pu Zixuan and shouted: "What did you say? You sent me? Why should I listen to you?"

Pu Zixuan explained: "Now we have two things to do, one is to find the statue of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, and the other is to find the entrance of the underground palace that may exist. They must be near the Chengde Summer Resort. However, Xiaojiu and I have been there once, and it is not suitable to go to the front line again. Otherwise, once we are met by an acquaintance in the villa, we will be unable to argue. Among the remaining people, Su Sanniang and Shadali are also familiar faces, so it is not convenient to go to that area. In this way, the remaining people will be divided into two groups, Yu Xiangdi and Sun Xiaoshu are in a group, looking for the statue of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, Pangdun and Zhou Faning are in a group, and going around to see if there are any terrain such as caves and cracks."

When Zhu Yuanliang heard this, his eyes almost bulged out and he opposed loudly: "Why is Yu Xiangdi and the others going to find Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, but I want to find the underground palace of Luo Shizi?"

Pu Zixuan smiled and said, "Because Yu Xiangdi has a strong sense of wind verb, if the statue of the Bodhisattva is hidden in the grass, no one can see it, but he can sense it. Even if that underground palace exists and where the entrance is, it is still a mystery, so it is very likely that you will return without success. Just take a look around and take a look."

After hearing Pu Zixuan's explanation, Zhu Yuanliang became even more unhappy: "Why do you have to do things that are easy to make contributions to them? I can only do things that are 'just to see'. Oh, is it that unimportant for me?"

"There is another reason. Xiaoqi forgot to say, I'll add it." Chen Shuqing smiled thiefly at Zhu Yuanliang and said, "Hu Gu also said that when he was investigating Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, a giant bear demon holding a mace suddenly appeared and attacked him. In this way, if the bear demon really appeared, Yu Xiangdi and Sun Xiaoshu's combination would be no problem to deal with them, but can you do it?"

Hearing the word "giant bear demon", Zhu Yuanliang swallowed unconsciously. He was most afraid of this giant beast demon whose brute force was far superior to his. The scene of being trampled by a group of beasts in the Battle of Mount Tai was still vivid in his mind, so his momentum immediately became much weaker. He nodded and said, "Well, after hearing what Miss Shuqing said, I think this is really a reasonable arrangement."

Seeing Zhu Yuanliang's cowardly look, everyone smiled silently.

Yu Xiangdi squeezed his eyebrows and said, "Okay, leave it to me about finding the statue of the Bodhisattva."
