Chapter 339 Spindle

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 There was a cry of mourning in the Buddha Bone Temple, as monks and pilgrims rescued the injured affected by the collapse of the temple.

More people spontaneously went to tidy up the collapsed Buddhist temple, and hurriedly pulled out some of the physical Bodhisattvas buried underneath.

Among the panic-stricken crowd, no one noticed the black spindle that had rolled to the corner of the wall.

Two bloody awls stretched out and picked up the neglected spindle like chopsticks.

Li Huowang, who frowned slightly, carefully looked at the things Zhuge Yuan gave him before.

This spindle is made of a waxy old bone with large ends and a narrow middle. Judging from the scratches on it, it seems to be old.

The extremely black silk threads are densely wrapped around it to form a ball of thread, making the entire spindle truly look like a hammer head without a handle.

"What is this thing?" The first question popped up in Li Huowang's mind, followed by the second question, "Is there any hidden danger in this thing?"

Zhuge Yuan's original goodwill towards him once again came to his mind. If he was the one who killed the person who made the fortune, then his strength should be far superior to his own. If he wanted to deal with him, he would have no backhand power at all.
Li Huowang held the bone spindle with a torture awl, sat on the steps nearby, and sorted out his thoughts from the beginning. "Zhuge Yuan...Zhuge Yuan..."

"First of all, it is certain that from the shocked attitude of the dead eunuch when he learned Zhuge Yuan's name, it can be seen that Zhuge Yuan should come from some other force, and this force is very strong, at least more powerful than the previous Zhengde Temple.

There is Anci'an to be stronger."

"The cause of this incident was caused by Zuowang Dao, Jian Tiansi, and Zhuge Yuan, these three parties robbed the heart. The final outcome is already known. Zhuge Yuan killed Fa Cai and bypassed Ji Xiang, and finally grabbed the heart.

Zhuo, become the winner of this event."

Having been in this ghost place for so long, Li Huowang knew the importance of Supervisor Tiansi. It was really hard for him to imagine that such a being would be afraid of Zhuge Yuan.

And there is Zhuge Yuan's ability. Although Zhuge Yuan is dressed as a scholar, a mere scholar can solve one of the three yuan of sitting and forgetting to make a fortune.

Li Huowang remembered the incoherent words he had asked about himself before.

"Let me ask you, did you feel anything weird when you went to the Buddha Bone Temple? Did anyone do something ridiculous but very reasonable?"

These were the exact words he said before, but Li Huowang couldn't understand what is ridiculous and reasonable? What does this have to do with Zhuge Yuan, and why did he scare him like that?

Li Huowang closed his eyes and replayed everything that happened in the Buddha Bone Temple in his mind. If it could be called something ridiculous but very reasonable, it would be because his mind suddenly falsely accused him of forgetting the Tao.<

/p>

The obsession may be a result of being petty, but when you are constantly being attacked by Zuowangdao, you still have to do something to yourself, which seems a bit strange.

Moreover, before, when Zuowangdao pretending to be himself came out, Xinchi could have said that this Li Huowang was another person's accomplice, and the two Zuowangdao were playing a double act.

But he didn't say anything. Instead, he acted like a young boy, without any excuse, and just let it go.

Li Huowang, who was sitting on the stairs, was organizing it inch by inch, but the more he thought about it, the more doubts he had.

"Is this Zhuge Yuan's ability? He can change a person's behavior without others noticing? What kind of magical power is this? Is it mind control?" Li Huowang guessed wildly.

"Wait a minute, since he can control others, why didn't he use it on me before?"

If he really has this kind of special magical power, there is no need to talk nonsense to himself if he wants to achieve something. He can just control himself and do whatever he wants to do.

"Unless..." Li Huowang's pupils shrank slightly and his heart beat faster. "Unless he has no purpose."

Thinking of this, Li Huowang lowered his head and looked at the spindle in front of him again. "Then why did he give me this? Is he kind-hearted? He sees me as pitiful and wants to help me? How is this possible! This is illogical! There is nothing so good in this world.

I don’t believe it! He must have other intentions for me!"

At this moment, the monk Huan Huan walked over from the side and said with a strange expression: "Taoist, you can't say that, I am a monk just to do good things, and isn't Master Jingxin a good person?"



After hearing this, Li Huowang stood there and thought for a long time. He couldn't think of a reason until his head was swollen.

Li Huowang shook his head vigorously and sighed deeply. He had long been accustomed to malice, and now Li Huowang was even more afraid of kindness.

He would rather Zhuge Yuan just attack him directly like everyone else, no matter whether he ends up dead or alive, at least then he won't be as entangled as now.

"Namo Amitabha, this donor, I am so polite." Li Huowang looked up and saw an old monk wearing cassocks standing in front of him with a compassionate face.

"Donor, I know that great things can be done without sticking to trivial details, and I also know that Supervisor Tiansi has lofty ambitions, but please don't do more killings. Because of you, five Buddhist disciples in this temple have passed away." The old monk clasped his hands and said to him.

Li Huowang knelt down.

Looking at the nine scars on his head, Li Huowang stood up on his knees, turned and walked towards the door of the Buddha Bone Temple. "Is he another good person? Maybe, but I still can't believe it."

When he walked out of the Buddha Bone Temple, Li Huowang had already thought of his next strategy, "Instead of staying here and making random guesses, it would be better to think about asking something from the memory, what is the origin of Zhuge Yuan, and the old eunuch?"

I definitely know!"

"After figuring out the origin of this person, think about how to deal with this spindle!"

Li Huowang lowered his head, wrapped the spindle tightly in the cowhide bag used to store the torture instruments, and got on his horse.

"Da da da~" The horseshoes with horseshoes kept rising and falling, bringing up and falling the mud on the ground.

The cold rain pattered on the horse's back, and it also hit Li Huowang's face.

Li Huowang raised his head and glanced at the gloomy sky above his head, then continued to look at the increasingly muddy dirt road in front of him.

Before we came here, we came by horse-drawn carriage, and it was cloudless even if it rained. But when we rode back, it felt like the day was missing, and it never stopped for a moment.

It's already late at night, and it's raining again. You shouldn't be riding a horse, but it's not okay to stop and stand in such an environment and get soaked by the rain. Li Huowang needs to find a place to shelter from the rain as soon as possible.

When he saw a flag with the word "Yi" swaying left and right under the wash of rain, Li Huowang's eyes lit up. He stepped on the saddle with his left foot, turned over and dismounted directly, and rushed in.

The post station is a place in Daliang where military information is conveyed and where officials can board, stay, and change horses on the way.

When the yawning post officer opened the door with a lantern, he saw the Jian Tiansi waist badge thrust into his face.

The post officer, who was half asleep, suddenly trembled all over and woke up completely.

After a while, the groom woke up, took away Li Huowang's horse, and cared for it like his own father.

The cook also woke up, and all the dishes available in the inn were brought to Li Huowang's guest room.
