Li Zhen and others were disappointed and left Dajue Temple because of the sloppy monk. They headed to Yingxian Pavilion, preparing to eliminate their unhappiness with fine wine and delicious food.
On the way to the Yingxian Tower, the Ghost Ancestor reminded Li Zhen: "Young Master! That sloppy monk is an extraordinary person, despite his ugly appearance. If he fights alone, his subordinates and Tu Liusun will probably be no match for him."
Li Zhen was shocked when he heard this.
When they were leaving, the sloppy monk still refused to give up. It could be seen that he and Jiang Shang had been targeted, and now they were in Buddhist territory, which was definitely not a good thing. The safest way was to leave this place, but leaving as soon as they arrived, Li
Zhen was really unwilling and could not help but feel hostile towards the sloppy monk. Without his presence, his mood would not be ruined.
"If you're not afraid of thieves stealing, you're afraid of thieves missing you."
Li Zhen did not dare to be careless, so he arranged for Tu Liusun: "You go to Tianshou Palace and ask the palace owner to come over."
Li Zhen asked the palace lord to come over as a bodyguard.
If he were not in Buddhist territory, but somewhere else, Li Zhen wouldn't need to be so careful. However, in a foreign country, he needs to be cautious in everything he does.
Tu Liusun got the order and said: "I accept the order!"
"Go and come back quickly."
Li Zhen gave another special warning.
Jiang Shang on the side heard Li Zhen's arrangement and said disapprovingly: "Brother Zhen, don't be so careful. If that sloppy monk continues to pester you shamelessly, I'll deal with him!"
While speaking, Jiang Shang shook the two steel rings on his wrists, showing a confident expression.
According to the judgment of Ghost Ancestor and Tu Liusun, the sloppy monk should have cultivated in the True Dharma Realm. To be more precise, he may have reached the peak of the True Dharma Realm. Such strength actually does not pose a threat to Li Zhen and others. If he goes all out, Li Zhen
He even had great confidence to win the battle, but he thought more comprehensively than Jiang Shang. What he wanted to guard against was the Buddhism behind the sloppy monk.
The other party has the cultivation level of the True Dharma Realm, and he is in Dajue Temple. He might be a member of Dajue Temple. Dealing with him will easily provoke Dajue Temple, a local snake. If Dajue Temple takes action, they will not be able to deal with it.
The Palace Master is powerful and has good prestige in the entire Taiping Domain. If the worst happens, the Palace Master will be able to provide certain protection.
Jiang Shang thought that the matter was very one-sided, and Li Zhen did not explain too much, saying: "Don't worry about this matter. Just eat well, drink well and have fun. But don't forget what you promised me, and you must practice seriously every night."
hour."
Li Zhen began to focus on Jiang Shang's practice, and the two made an agreement that as long as Li Zhen's demands were not excessive, Li Zhen would try his best to satisfy them, and Jiang Shang would accordingly take time to practice every day.
From saving lives to having similar interests, the two have become as close as brothers to each other. As the elder brother, Li Zhen could not let Jiang Shang stay in such a hazy state. He urged Jiang Shang to practice, which Senior Wan and Senior Jiang were also willing to see.
"Don't worry! I promise to do what I promised."
Jiang Shang patted his chest and said.
Jiang Shang has many shortcomings, such as being playful, being lazy, etc. But on the other hand, he also has many advantages. The most important thing to Li Zhen is his commitment, honesty and trustworthiness.
Given his family background, it is very rare that he has not become a playboy. It can also be seen that Jiang Shang has a good nature.
Without further ado, Tu Liusun rushed to Tianshou Palace, while Li Zhen and the others continued towards Yingxian Tower.
Dajue Temple.
The sloppy monk watched Li Zhen and Jiang Shang disappear from sight, then turned and walked towards the backyard of the big temple.
The backyard of Dajue Temple is a real place of practice. In addition to being heavily guarded, it is also protected by powerful formations. It is completely impossible for outsiders to enter, because even if they escape the guards, they cannot break the formation protecting the temple.
Since the founding of Dajue Temple, no outsider has been able to break into the backyard without permission.
The sloppy monk had a high level of cultivation and should be a high-ranking official in Dajue Temple. However, he did not go through the gate openly. Instead, he avoided the guards and sneaked in secretly. Not even the temple's protective formation could stop him.
After sneaking into the backyard, the sloppy monk walked towards a pavilion in a familiar manner. He easily avoided all the monks along the way, as if he was in his own back garden. However, if he is said to be a monk from Dajue Temple, his behavior is too weird. His true identity
, which made people confused for a while.
After a while, he came to the pavilion. There were three simple characters "Sutra Pavilion" hanging on the main door.
The Sutra Pavilion is a forbidden area of Dajue Temple. It contains not only Buddhist classics but also numerous Buddhist practices, which is the foundation of the Dajue Temple sect.
There must be many experts guarding such a place. However, in such a heavily guarded place, the sloppy monk entered the pavilion smoothly as if he was in a deserted place and started searching, as if he was looking for something important.
The sloppy monk rummaged around and didn't seem to be afraid of being discovered at all. His behavior looked really bold to outsiders. After almost half an hour, he found nothing, and the sloppy monk couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
"It's really weird. There isn't one. Could it be that it's not in the Sutra-Tiding Pavilion? Then where could it be?"
When the sloppy monk was distressed, an old monk appeared not far behind him.
The old monk was thin, kind-faced, and amiable. However, the loose robes he wore on his body made it look quite funny. Furthermore, his brows were very long, and the tips of his brows dropped to his chin, which was quite rare and impressive.
The sloppy monk muttered a few words of complaint to himself, then suddenly became energetic, turned around suddenly, and slapped the old monk behind him with his palm.
"Prajna Palm!"
A golden Buddha palm flew out and struck the old monk in the face, obviously intending to kill him.
The old monk did not hide or evade, chanting the Buddha's name, and a 'swastika' seal appeared out of thin air in front of him, and he took the Prajna Palm easily.
"Oh?! It turns out to be senior brother. I haven't seen him for so many years, but he still looks the same. I'm so happy and congratulated. I'm so envious of him!"
The sloppy monk's palm was full of murderous intent. When he saw that he didn't succeed, he immediately changed his face, as if he was happy to see him again after a long separation. His face changed faster than turning the page of a book.
"Junior brother came back without saying a word. Why did he sneak into the Sutra Pavilion for what?"
The old monk said calmly.
The sloppy monk didn't feel embarrassed when he was caught. He smiled and said, "I haven't been away from the temple for a long time. I miss him very much, so I thought of coming to the place where we used to copy scriptures when we were children. We would revisit the old place to relieve the pain of missing each other."
"The sea of suffering is boundless, but when you turn around you will find the shore."
The old monk muttered for no reason, and then said: "Now that you are back, practice well in the temple and stop running around."
"When I come back this time, junior brother doesn't plan to leave."
The old monk walked out of the Sutra Pavilion, followed closely by the slovenly monk. The two brothers chatted wordlessly, acting like brothers and sisters. Inadvertently, the sloppy monk's eyes flashed with cold murderous intent.
