A few incense sticks were almost burned out, and the old woman guarding against the wall quickly added a few more sticks, inserted them properly into the incense burner, and then used a piece of cloth to wipe off the ashes on the altar.
When Guide Liu went forward to ask, he found out that this was the place where the citizens had killed City Guard Liu with stones. After Emperor Jiuyou left, Guard Yang led everyone to erect a statue of a black dragon for him. Many people come here to worship every day.
Bai Ziqi ordered his men to disperse and collect information about the two battles, while he asked the old woman at the foot of the wall about the location of the Puin Temple.
The old woman was bowing to the wooden sculpture without even opening her eyes, and said indifferently: "Go to the back, go to the back of the city, and go to Bayuan Township."
Bai Ziqi followed the direction of her finger and walked towards the back of the city. During the walk, he passed a market. In addition to the common agricultural products, there were also several stalls selling necklaces, small statues, and evil-repelling cloth bags. Although the workmanship was crude and looked a bit abstract, everyone could still tell at a glance that it was an imitation of a black-armored man or a black dragon.
Emperor Jiuyou is very popular here.
Passing a pass, there was a small temple standing on the hill.
The temple is a bit dilapidated, and there is a corner missing from the eaves.
Bai Ziqi ordered everyone to wait while he went into the temple alone.
The temple was deserted, with a thick layer of dust on the statues. On the altar was a plate of cold steamed buns and a bunch of stale grapes, in stark contrast to the burning incense and mountain of offerings to the black dragon totem behind the Shizhoutou city gate.
A stick of incense burned into a sticky butt and was about to go out.
Bai Ziqi put in six incense sticks, and then waved his hand, and the doors and windows closed automatically.
When the smoke died down, he murmured a few words.
After more than ten breaths, the smoke suddenly stagnated and condensed in the air without dispersing, as if it was about to form a ball.
However, Bai Ziqi waited for a long time, but it still didn't take shape.
Seeing that the smoke was about to dissipate again, he simply took out a pale golden candle from his arms and carefully placed it on the altar.
With a "puff" sound, the candle ignited without any fire, but the flame core was a strange light green color, and the smoke in the air dissipated naturally.
Bai Ziqi asked, "God Pu Yin?"
The pale golden candle flame jumped up more than a foot high, and after a few changes like plasticine, a vague rectangular face was squeezed out, but without any facial features.
"This is the eternal lamp spirit of the Lingxu gods..." a muddy voice sounded, "Whose priest are you?"
"Star-Picking Tower, Cloud Envoy."
"Oh?" God Puin seemed to have woken up from a long sleep and even yawned. "What are you doing here, servant of Lord Lingxu, in my temple?"
"Your temple is running out of incense." All the temple priests of Puyin God had fled, posing no threat to Bai Ziqi, so he didn't speak politely, "It seems that all the believers have been taken away by the Nine Nether Emperor."
"..." Pu Yinshen said unhappily, "What's the matter with you?"
Is it the only god whose worship was taken away from it on the Shining Gold Plain? It is not very popular in Shizhoutou. Originally, there were hundreds of believers. After the appearance of the Nine Nether Emperor, there are less than ten left now.
Without believers, the temple will naturally fall into disrepair.
"My master couldn't find you in the God Realm, so he asked me to come to Bayuan Township." Bai Ziqi looked up. "You're hiding?"
Puin God laughed and said, "Where I go, what does it have to do with them?"
"Why are you dodging? Are you trying to imitate Mitian back then?"
The name "Mitian" was a taboo in the world of gods. When he said it, even the god Puin found it irritating. The human face transformed by the lamp spirit came closer and almost touched Bai Ziqi's face, but the latter did not move at all.
"You are Lingxu's messenger, but you are also a lowly human! Didn't your master teach you to be respectful when facing gods?"
Bai Ziqi raised his hand and poked, and the lamp spirit jumped back to its original position. He stood with his head held high: "Status is determined by strength, I only serve my master."
The lamp spirit trembled for a while, and transformed into the face of the god Puin again: "Your masters can't stand seeing others have treasures. If I don't hide, I will have a share of the Emperor's Liquid that will erupt in more than two months."
Bai Ziqi understood. The thing that could be called a "treasure" by the gods was most likely the Xinglong Pillar.
This wild god got the Dragon Pillar from somewhere and was discovered by the Lingxu gods, so the god Pu Yin began to hide.
In the current world of gods, the struggle over the Dragon Pillar is getting more and more intense. Even a righteous god has fallen. Minor gods like Puin are well aware of the principle of being guilty of possessing a treasure.
"Don't worry, I'm not here for your Dragon Pillar. I'm just following the orders of the Holy Lord to investigate the Nine Nether Emperor." Bai Ziqi said seriously, "It is said that the Nine Nether Emperor first appeared in Shizhoutou. I would like to ask, does God Puyin have any clues?"
"Emperor Jiuyou?" So that's how it is. Did Emperor Jiuyou also threaten the faith of the Lingxu gods? God Puyin was silent for a while before saying, "You have been walking on the sea for a long time, right?"
"Yes."
"Recently, the Nine Nether Emperor has acquired another title: the reincarnated true dragon. It's been rumored everywhere in the Shining Gold Plains that he is the reincarnation of the Black Dragon God."
Black Dragon God? "Where did all this news come from?"
"I don't know, it's being spread everywhere." God Puin chuckled, "Don't you see where you are standing? The Glittering Plains, the land of chaos, you want to find a hole for the wind to escape here?"
"Emperor Jiuyou has been to Shizhoutou, which is very close to Bayuan Township. You knew that, right?"
Pu Yinshen said, "What good will it do me if I give you a clue?"
"I'll give you this lamp spirit." The Ever-Bright Lamp Spirit is one of the treasures bestowed by the Heavenly Palace. It has many uses, and an ordinary lamp bearer may not be able to nurture one in his lifetime. The lamp spirit can be used for many purposes by the god Pu Yin.
Otherwise, the temple keeper is not here, and he can't even communicate with humans.
Bai Ziqi didn't even blink, "Besides, if I can dig out the true body of the Nine Nether Emperor, wouldn't that be a good thing for you?"
The sharp decline in faith in the Golden Plains has caused the wild gods to complain. So God Puin no longer complained: "Emperor Jiuyou has been here."
"Here?" Bai Ziqi was slightly surprised. "In this temple?"
"He once stood where you are now." God Puin whispered, "He was wearing the same outfit and a mask on his head, but there was no flames around him. He was accompanied by a subordinate wearing a wolf mask."
"Karma fire?" Bai Ziqi grasped the key words, "The black flames around him, isn't that a magical power?"
"Listen to me first." The servant of Saint Lingxu was almost as rude as his master. Pu Yinshen said unhappily, "At that time, Yang Meng, the garrison commander of Shizhoutou, was still praying in my temple, because the invading Zhao Guangzhi had withdrawn his troops, but the city lord Liu Shuheng led his troops to attack his own city. After Emperor Jiuyou came, he repeatedly asked me what happened in the God Realm and why gods kept falling. He also asked about the recent situation of Naluotian and the date of Emperor Liujiang's arrival."
"Ask about the God Realm?" Emperor Jiuyou was so interested in the gods? "Why did you ask about Narakuten alone?"
