After a while, Chu Xiuxiu floated out of the woods, the sword in her hand still dripping with blood.
She floated up to Xu Zhijian, gently shook off the blood from the sword, returned the sword to its sheath, and the frost on her face melted away, revealing a smile as pleasant as the spring breeze: "Senior brother."
Xu Zhijian's ugly face showed a smile, but then he tensed up and frowned: "Junior sister Chu, why are you coming out alone!"
He glanced left and right and saw no trace of Chen Shaoqun.
Chen Shaoqun always followed Cui Xiuxiu closely, like her tail, never leaving her.
Chu Xiuxiu said softly: "Senior brother, how could you come here by such a coincidence?"
According to her estimation, Xu Zhijian should be very busy at the moment and would have no time to spare, let alone rush over.
Xu Zhijian shook his head slightly, his eyes fell on this tall and thin middle-aged man, and he said coldly: "Is he the disciple of our Holy Cult who killed him?"
Chu Xiuxiu said: "All three senior brothers died at his hands."
Although he was not from Great Guangming Peak, but a disciple from other peaks, and she didn't see much of him, it still made her sad.
Xu Zhijian stared at the tall, thin middle-aged man, his eyes were like lightning, as if he wanted to see through the tall, thin middle-aged man's heart.
The tall, thin, middle-aged man couldn't move any muscles on his face. There was a smile in his eyes, as if he was disdainful, and he closed his eyes.
Chu Xiuxiu said: "Senior brother, just kill him directly to avoid causing unnecessary problems."
"Yeah." Xu Zhijian nodded.
"Bang!" He punched the tall, thin middle-aged man in the middle.
"Bang!" He punched the tall, thin middle-aged man in the lower abdomen again.
"Bang!" The third punch struck the tall, thin middle-aged man between the eyebrows, knocking him unconscious and falling limply to the ground.
"Bang!" It hit the ground hard.
Xu Zhijian kicked him away and landed on a stone on the side of the road. He turned around and said, "Junior sister, you..."
"I'm not injured." Chu Xiuxiu smiled sweetly.
Xu Zhijian's eyes fell on her snow-white and slender neck.
Chu Xiuxiu noticed that he was looking at him strangely, so she reached out and touched her neck, and immediately felt blood stains. She quickly took out the silk handkerchief and wiped it.
Xu Zhijian showed a look of pity and said in a low voice: "How could you be so careless!"
"Skin trauma, it's nothing." Chu Xiuxiu said with a smile.
She felt Xu Zhijian's concern and felt warm in her heart.
Especially when he originally thought he would die, but now he is alive, and it was Senior Brother Xu who saved him.
Joy, excitement, gratitude, and admiration all mixed together, making her face blush and dazzling.
Xu Zhijian didn't dare to look any further, for fear of losing his composure, so he said softly: "Next time, don't travel alone."
"Senior brother, I'm not a child anymore, it doesn't matter." Chu Xiuxiu said hurriedly: "This time it was the Grand Master who ambushed me. If anyone else, they would never suffer this loss."
Xu Zhijian stared at her dissatisfied.
Chu Xiuxiu then smiled and said: "Okay, I will listen to my senior brother. If I don't go alone, I will drag you with me later."
Xu Zhijian nodded with satisfaction.
Chu Xiuxiu said: "Senior brother, how could you be so lucky to arrive just in time?"
"...Well, it's a coincidence." Xu Zhijian hesitated.
He knew that Chu Xiuxiu and Fakong didn't get along very well, so it was best not to mention Fakong in front of her.
But this matter is indeed Fakong's credit, and she should know that Fakong is kind and kind to her.
He sighed and said, "If it weren't for Fakong's magical power and his clairvoyance that predicted that you would be assassinated, junior sister, I really wouldn't have rushed back."
Chu Xiuxiu was startled.
Xu Zhijian then told what happened.
Chu Xiuxiu had a complicated expression, and then turned into a delicate smile: "Then I really have to thank Master Fakong."
Xu Zhijian nodded slightly and said: "Sometimes his magical powers are not very useful, but sometimes they are really useful."
"Does Senior Brother Xu often go to Master Fa Kong?"
"I'm too busy to go there often. I can only visit him occasionally." Xu Zhijian said: "After all, I only have this one friend in Shenjing."
"You have me this time." Chu Xiuxiu said with a smile, "Senior brother will not be alone anymore."
Xu Zhijian smiled: "Next time I take you to see the Far East, and I want to express my gratitude."
"Okay." Chu Xiuxiu smiled sweetly and said, "I really need to thank you in person for saving my life... Senior brother, don't worry, I won't target Master Fakong."
"That's good..." Xu Zhijian breathed a sigh of relief.
——
Xu Zhijian carried the tall, thin middle-aged man and Cu Xiuxiu to the outside of Shenjing in one go, without entering the city directly.
They arrived at Nantian Peak.
After all, you have a big living person in your hands, so if you go in like this, the impact will be too great.
The air in the early morning is particularly crisp, and the birds are chirping all around.
Xu Zhijian asked Chu Xiuxiu to go to the outer courtyard of Jingang Temple to find Fa Kong and ask Fa Kong to come and help.
Chu Xiuxiu agreed.
As soon as she entered the city, she immediately felt the bustle and bustle.
This is a completely different feeling from many large cities within the Guangming Holy Cult.
It's not much more prosperous than those big cities, but it feels different. Maybe it's because of the spirit of the people in the city?
She walked a few steps among the endless flow of people, and then asked two passers-by where Master Fakong was.
These two middle-aged women are very enthusiastic.
"Girl, are you looking for Master Fakong?"
"Senior Monk Fakong shouldn't be here at this time, right?"
"Well, I guess it's in Guanyun Tower or Wangjiang Tower. Anyway, it's good to go there."
"Restaurant?" Chu Xiuxiu was surprised.
"Yes, Divine Monk Fa Kong eats out in the morning. Everyone knows that."
"Then how to get to Guanyun Tower and Wangjiang Tower?"
"Hey, keep walking along this avenue, and you can see their signboard when you look up. It's fluttering in the wind, and it's majestic."
"Okay, thank you two eldest sisters."
"Are you looking for a doctor from the Divine Monk Fakong? Hey, then you've found the right person!"
"Yes, since we have the Divine Monk Fa Kong in Shenjing, everyone feels at ease and is no longer afraid of dying from a terminal illness!"
"Girl, you are young, so there is no need to worry. However, Master Fakong will not receive patients, pilgrims and believers in person. They all have to go to the outer courtyard of Vajra Temple, where the master will receive them."
"No matter how serious the illness is, as long as you drink the divine water, receive the rejuvenation spell, and go back and recite the spell carefully, you will definitely be cured."
"That's right."
They talked to Cui Xiuxiu enthusiastically, but Cui Xiuxiu reluctantly listened to a few words, then said goodbye with a smile and left.
Chu Xiuxiu walked among the endless crowds and felt the influence of Fa Kong in Shenjing City.
She shook her head slightly and laughed.
However, in such a short period of time, the two of them were no longer on the same level.
One is an ordinary disciple of the Guangming Holy Cult, and the other is a world-famous divine monk.
As a disciple of the Holy Sect of Light, I am already at the top level in the eyes of outsiders, but I still have a long way to go before I can truly become famous all over the world, and I may not even get there.
The Holy Sect of Light is powerful, and its disciples are all heroes, but there are too many people. How many people know all the disciples of the Holy Sect of Light?
Disciples of the Guangming Sect often do not seek to be famous in the world, but only seek to be clear in their hearts, so they are not keen on fame.
Including Senior Brother Xu.
Senior Brother Xu is an ancient and brilliant genius of the Guangming Holy Religion, but how many people in the world know about Senior Brother Xu’s reputation?
In the final analysis, being famous in the world requires more than just being powerful in martial arts. It also requires favorable timing and favorable conditions in the world.
She did not go to the restaurant, but went directly to the outer courtyard of Vajra Temple.
When she gave her name, Yuan Deng, who was in charge of the reception, smiled and said: "Donor Chu, the abbot has already told me, please come to the temple and wait a moment. The abbot has already passed."
"Master Fakong has gone outside the city?"
"Yes, I just left not long ago." Yuan Deng said with a smile: "The abbot said you don't have to wait too long and will come with Donor Xu."
"...Okay." Chu Xiuxiu hesitated and nodded lightly.
When Yuan Deng took her to Fakong's courtyard, Xu Qingluo was waiting there, smiling and bowing.
Chu Xiuxiu curiously asked her identity, and was surprised when she found out that she was Fakong's registered disciple.
Xu Qingluo said again that she was building a foundation with her uncle.
Chu Xiuxiu was even more surprised. She didn't expect Xu Zhijian to help her build the foundation.
The method of building the foundation of the Holy Religion of Light is not spread to outsiders.
She felt sour in her heart.
Senior Brother Xu really had nothing to say to Fakong, he poured out his heart and soul without reservation.
——
Fa Kong appeared in a flash.
Xu Zhijian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him appear.
Fakong smiled and said, "Did you rescue your Junior Sister Chu?"
"Just in time." Xu Zhijian smiled: "It's just a little bit behind. If it were a step later..."
Fakong smiled and shook his head: "If it's a step too late, I'll have to be the hero to save the beauty."
Xu Zhijian smiled even brighter.
Fakong lowered his head and glanced at the tall, thin middle-aged man: "How are you doing? Did you find out anything?"
This tall, thin middle-aged man was sweating profusely, his face was as pale as paper, and his eyes were bloodshot, like a person who had not recovered from a serious illness.
"No question." Xu Zhijian shook his head.
He just sealed the acupuncture points, then used a method to punish traitors, and ignored them.
Fakong smiled and said, "Don't you want to ask clearly?"
"I'm afraid it will be difficult for this guy to ask questions." Xu Zhijian said slowly.
The Grand Master is afraid of death because he has seen through himself and knows the horror between life and death, so he cherishes life even more.
But once faced with life and death, a great master often has a strong will and is difficult to shake. How can he possibly force a confession?
So he immediately gave up his thoughts of asking for a confession and wanted to ask Fakong for help. His mind was best used at this time.
"It's strange!" Fakong shook his head: "Someone actually dares to kill you disciples of the Holy Sect of Light."
Xu Zhijian stared coldly at the tall, thin middle-aged man.
"Ask." Fakong said.
Xu Zhijian went straight to his point and asked the tall, thin middle-aged man in a deep voice: "Who are you, and why on earth do you want to kill my disciple of the Holy Sect of Light?!"
Fakong said: "No need to stop, just ask everything you want to ask."
"Okay!" Xu Zhijian said solemnly: "How do you know that Junior Sister Chu is going this way? How do you know when Junior Sister Chu will leave?"
"You want to kill me?"
"What's your relationship with Dayun?"
"Which sect are you from?"
"What kind of martial arts are you practicing, and what adventures have you had?"
"How did you become a great master?"
"..."
Fakong nodded: "If you're done asking, just kill him."
"killed?"
"Do you want to keep him? If you don't keep him, he will be killed directly." Fakong said: "After all, he is a great master. I will help him transcend."
"...That's fine." Xu Zhijian finally agreed and struck the tall, thin middle-aged man to death with one palm, relieving him of his pain.
He released his back palm and said calmly: "His body must be returned to the church to comfort the spirits of the three senior brothers in heaven."
"That's right." Fakong nodded.
While casting the Great Light Spell, I watched the tall, thin, middle-aged soul ascend to heaven. He must have been reincarnated.
Fakong pressed the pearl of memory in his mind into the red mole between the eyebrows of the Medicine Buddha statue, and began to enter the life of the tall, thin, middle-aged Cai Sen.
