Chu Li nodded helplessly: "Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Okay, I'll give it a try, but there are so many masters in the world, especially on the islands at sea, so I may not be able to protect them completely."
"Just try your best, let's see her fate." Monk Huicheng tithes.
Chu Lihe returned the courtesy, stood up and said, "I'll go over right now."
"Wait a moment." Monk Huicheng said.
Chu Li looked at him.
Monk Huicheng took out a string of Buddhist beads from his arms and handed them to Chu Li: "This is my token."
Chu Li smiled and accepted it.
He knew that this string of Buddhist beads was a treasure. Wearing it on his body had the effect of calming his mind. He said it was a token for himself, but in fact it was a gift to himself. He accepted it calmly. Compared with the effort he had to put in, this string of Buddhist beads was precious, but
Itβs nothing.
Monk Huicheng sought help from him, not because of his advanced cultivation, but because of his clairvoyance. With his clairvoyance, he could know the bad luck and pursue good luck and avoid bad luck, so that he could protect Lu Zhu's health.
Monk Huicheng bowed deeply.
Chu Li returned the courtesy and left Xixinyuan.

Chu Li appeared on the top of a mountain the next moment, standing in front of the fence outside a thatched house and looking at Lu Zhu, who was bending over to hoe weeds.
Lu Zhu was wearing a coarse cloth, with a wooden hairpin stuck in his hair like a cloud. The pearl hairpin and precious jade were put away. Although the wooden hairpin was also valuable, it revealed a bit of simplicity and beauty, and had lost its splendor and nobility.
She suddenly looked up and saw Chu Li standing there, wiping the sweat from his forehead, putting down the hoe, walking closer, opening the fence door, and hummed: "Come in."
Chu Li smiles.
The gray monk's robes made a rustling sound. He slowly entered the fence gate and walked on the gravel path to the hut. Lu Zhu made a cup of tea and handed it to him: "Master Dingru, why are you here?"
Chu Li said: "Miss Lu, you should have guessed."
"...Brother Zhou, is he okay?" Lu Zhu hesitated, his red lips moved slightly, and after opening them several times, he finally plucked up the courage to ask.
Chu Li smiled and said: "Uncle Huicheng has been punished to face the wall of Xixinyuan for hundreds of years. It is considered a punishment but also an opportunity. Whether he can realize supernatural powers and advance Buddhism depends on his own destiny."
Lu Zhu breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slowly, with a smile on his beautiful face.
Chu Li said: "Miss Lu, you have to wait for Master Huicheng for a hundred years?"
"Yes." Lu Zhu said softly: "We agreed that if he doesn't die, he will return to secular life and grow old together with me."
A sweet smile appeared on her face, and her eyes revealed longing.
Chu Li said with a smile: "In the blink of an eye of a hundred years, lovers finally get married. It is a joy to congratulate you. Uncle Huicheng is not worried about your safety, Miss Lu, so he asked me to come over and protect you."
"Brother Zhou is still thinking of me..." Lu Zhu smiled sweetly.
Chu Li nodded lightly.
Lu Zhudao: "Actually, Brother Zhou, there is no need to worry. I am alone now, with no worries. I am completely cut off from Fenglie Island. No matter how much grievances there are, who will deal with me?"
Chu Li shook his head: "You said it was over, but how can family ties be broken? If others want to deal with Island Master Lu, you are the best weakness."
Lu Zhudao: "No one knows I'm here."
Chu Li smiled and said, "Isn't Miss Lu too naive? There are so many strange people in the world, it's not difficult to find you."
"Then I don't have a place to stay?" Lu Zhu frowned.
Chu Li nodded: "It's better to stay on Fenglie Island."
"Impossible!" Lu Zhu said flatly.
She felt extremely cold towards Lu Junshan. If it weren't for the Fuhu Seal, how could Brother Zhou commit suicide? Unless the monk in front of him had great supernatural powers and could bring Brother Zhou back to life, there would be no point in living on his own.
Chu Li sighed: "In order for Master Huicheng not to worry, Miss Lu, you should return to Fengli Island."
"There's no way I'm going back." Lu Zhu shook his head gently.
Seeing her firm expression, Chu Li felt quite helpless and sighed: "Well, let's stop forcing Miss Lu and go to Da Ci'en Temple."
Lu Zhu hummed: "Can women enter Daci'en Temple?"
Chu Li said: "You can stay outside Daci'en Temple."
"How will Brother Zhou deal with himself then? No way." Lu Zhu shook his head gently and whispered: "Master Dingru, I understand your kindness. It doesn't matter to me, I have my own way."
"Miss Lu, your whole body is nothing more than the protection of Fenglie Island, right?" Chu Li shook his head gently and said: "They are not enough to rely on."
No matter how cruel Lu Junshan was, he would not just watch his daughter being killed, so he secretly sent guards around, but they couldn't hide them. He could sense their presence.
However, although these guards were strong in cultivation, they were far from being able to protect Lu Zhu completely.
"Someone really wants to kill me?" Lu Zhu frowned.
Chu Li said slowly: "Meng Yu from Qianyang Island will come over and kill you."
He had already seen Lu Zhu's fate before, and he was going to be burned by the fire of karma again. Lu Zhu was killed by Meng Yu.
"Meng Yu!" Lu Zhu curled his lips with a look of disdain: "This guy is so bad that he oozes pus!"
Chu Li said: "Although he is bad, his martial arts is strong. Do you think the guards around him can stop him?"
"How could he kill me?" Lu Zhu frowned: "Although Fenglie Island and Qianyang Island have grievances, they don't go to the extent of killing me."
"Who knows." Chu Li shook his head.
Meng Yu acted viciously, had deep thoughts, and used unscrupulous means. In order to achieve his goals, killing people was just a trivial matter. He speculated that it might be to put the blame on others and cause disputes.
Lu Zhu was silent.
Being from the same sect on the sea, she naturally knew how powerful Meng Yu was. He was one of the top masters of the younger generation. If he really wanted to kill her, the guards of Fenglie Island would definitely not be able to protect her.
"Bang bang bang bang..." A muffled sound suddenly came from outside.
"Miss, leave quickly!" A shrill voice suddenly sounded.
Chu Li Dayuanjingzhi had already observed the situation outside. Six middle-aged men were besieging Meng Yu. Meng Yu was beating them back steadily, and he collapsed at the sight of them.
"It's really..." Chu Li shook his head.
He appeared behind Meng Yu in a flash, and cast the Demon Subduing Seal.
"Bang!" Meng Yu retreated five feet away and looked at Chu Li in surprise: "It's you!"
He recognized the Demon-Subduing Seal at a glance, and felt that Chu Li's cultivation level had increased sharply. His handsome face was extremely gloomy, and he stared at him.
Chu Lihe bowed and said with a smile: "Mr. Meng, we have a good relationship with this young monk!"
"You are everywhere!" Meng Yu gritted his teeth, swallowed the blood that came up, and said bitterly: "It's none of your business if I kill Lu Zhu, right? When will you, the Great Ci'en Temple, save the people of Fengling Island?
?β
Chu Li shook his head and said: "How can you not take action when you see injustice on the road? How can Miss Lu, a weak woman, die at your hands?"
"Could it be that Fenglie Island has colluded with your Great Ci'en Temple?" Meng Yu took a deep breath and smiled: "What a great discovery!"
Chu Li smiled and said: "If Mr. Meng doesn't leave now, don't blame the young monk for being ruthless!"
"Okay, farewell!" Meng Yu turned around and left without hesitation.
His blood surged, and the Demon Subduing Seal wreaked havoc in his body.
He has already experienced the tyranny of the Demon-Subduing Seal, and he cannot suppress it on his own. He can only wait for death and needs help.
Lu Zhu walked out of the small courtyard and came to Chu Li's side.
