Chapter 992
Under the guidance of Great Master Chang Geng, everyone came to a Buddhist pagoda that was several feet tall and had a single story with many eaves. At this time, there was an incense burner and some candles placed in front of the pagoda. Zhang Xiaohua followed Great Master Chang Geng, bowed, and lit the candles. It could be considered as paying respects to Great Master Yuantian on behalf of Abbess Jing Yi.
"Little benefactor, if you have any wishes, you can also pray here. Perhaps Great Master Yuantian can hear your wishes in the Western Paradise!"
"Oh?"
Zhang Xiaohua raised her eyebrows and looked at Meng beside her. She put her palms together and prayed silently in her heart for a moment before getting up!
After paying respects to Great Master Yuantian, Zhang Xiaohua looked up at the huge Guiyuan Pagoda in the distance. She wanted to go and take a look, but Great Master Chang Geng turned a deaf ear to Zhang Xiaohua's actions. He smiled and said, "Little benefactor, the sect's official business is done. If you have time, you can stay in my temple for a few days and listen to Buddhist teachings …"
"No, Great Master. The official business is done, but there are still some trivial matters. Thank you for your convenience. I will never forget it."
"Disciple also thanks Great Master for your grace!" Meng also expressed her gratitude.
"It's fine, it's fine."
Great Master Chang Geng waved his hand and said to Meng, "Our temple's rules have been passed down since ancient times. Benefactor Zi Xia didn't even take a step into the temple and stayed outside. I hope Benefactor won't blame me!"
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare," Meng quickly replied.
"I still have some matters to attend to at the Guiyuan Pagoda, so I won't see you off."
As he spoke, Master Changgeng took out a few jade bottles from his bosom and said, "These are the Dahuan Pills and Xiaohuan Pills secretly concocted by my Dalin Temple. They have miraculous effects for healing injuries. I promised them to you earlier, so please accept them!"
"Haha," Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile, "Great Master is indeed a trustworthy person. In that case, I won't stand on ceremony!"
"Haha, why stand on ceremony?
This old monk knows that your Fragrant Religion also has healing panaceas, the effect may not be worse than these … "
Zhang Xiaohua slapped his forehead and said, "Grandmaster said so, this little one is lacking in manners.
Senior Sister Zixia … "
Meng suddenly understood. She took out a bottle of Yuhuandan Pill from her bosom and handed it to the Great Master Chang Geng. She said, "This is the Yuhuandan Pill used in our Cult. Disciple has come out this time, Jiaozhu's gift is limited. Grandmaster, please kindly accept it!"
Great Master Chang Geng politely accepted it and said, "Your Cult's Yuhuandan Pill and my Temple's Dahuan Pill are both healing panaceas. Although they are not the same, they have the same effect. If you take both together, you will get twice the result with half the effort."
Then, he took out a thin booklet and said, "When this old monk was young, he wandered the Jianghu and found a book called 'Poison Scripture'. It contains vicious methods and powerful poisons, which are contrary to our Temple's benevolence. This old monk has always wanted to destroy it, but the contents are very classic. Moreover, if used properly, they can save lives. Therefore, I have never found a better way. Now that I see that young benefactor is benevolent, I would like to gift this Poison Scripture to you. I hope that benefactor will be benevolent and not use poison without permission!"
Then, he handed the Poison Scripture to Meng and added, "Benefactor, please swear that this Poison Scripture will never be used on the disciples of the Dalin Temple!"
Meng frowned slightly and wanted to decline.
Zhang Xiaohua glared at her and secretly said, "This is something that has been delivered to your door, why decline?
Just take it as an exchange for the Yuhuandan Pill! "
Seeing Zhang Xiaohua's meaningful glance, Meng accepted the Poison Scripture and swore.
"Very good!"
Great Master Chang Geng put his palms together and said, "This old monk will not send you off. We will meet again at the martial arts assembly on Lingxiang Peak!"
Zhang Xiaohua and Meng also bowed and bid farewell.
Accompanied by a few monks behind them, they returned to the Dalin Temple. At this time, Monk Kongchan was already waiting for them. He smiled and said, "The abbot has ordered this poor monk to send you off!"
"Very good, very good!"
Zhang Xiaohua cupped her hands, tidied up, and led the four odd beasts. Meng also led the big white horse and followed Monk Kongchan out of the Dalin Temple. When they reached the front of the mountain, Kongchan smiled and said, "Even if you accompany me for a thousand miles, we will still have to part. Benefactor Ren, this poor monk is very gratified to have met an opponent like you.
This poor monk still needs to cultivate. I hope to spar with you again at the martial arts assembly! "
"Don't!"
Zhang Xiaohua waved her hand and said, "The martial arts assembly is a matter for the leader of Lingxiang Peak. I am only a guardian disciple. Even if something happens, Senior Mo Xue Gong will stand up for me. It has nothing to do with me."
"Hehe, of course, if Senior Kongchan is itchy, we can still spar in private!"
"Hahaha, Benefactor Ren is straightforward. It's settled then!"
The two of them high-fived and bid farewell!
"My goodness, what is recorded in this' Poison Sutra '?"
The rising sun gave off warmth. On a wide official road, Zhang Xiaohua rode on the four odd beasts and held the thin book in her hand. Meng, on the other hand, was riding a white horse. She smiled and looked at Zhang Xiaohua quietly.
"Really, Meng, don't you want to take a look?
How to use poisonous insects, how to pick poisonous plants, hmm, there are even drugs that can make people fake death … Tsk tsk, if I didn't look, I wouldn't have thought that there are so many ways to make people beg for death! "
"Eh?
There are even poisons that can control people's minds?
Why … "Zhang Xiaohua flipped through the book and suddenly felt that this thing was similar to what she had obtained from a jade slip from Abbess Jing Gang!
Meng shook her head and said, "Monk Chang Geng is a little strange. I can't tell what he is thinking. Since he trusted me and gave me the 'Poison Sutra', why did he make me swear?
If I poison a monk of the Dalin Temple, what can the oath do?
Moreover, if I poison him, do I have to ask if he is a monk of the Dalin Temple? "
"He didn't say that this' Poison Sutra 'can't be given to others. If I give you the' Poison Sutra 'and don't read it, even if I poison a monk of the Dalin Temple, I won't violate the oath. Don't tease me!"
"Hehe, no wonder you specifically said in the oath that you have to use the 'Poison Sutra' to poison a monk of the Dalin Temple to fulfill the oath. It turns out that you have this kind of intention!
I admire you, I admire you! "
"You admire my ass!"
Meng rebuked and jumped on the back of the four odd beasts. She pinched Zhang Xiaohua's ear and said, "Anyway, I am by your side. If anyone poisons me, you will protect me. If I want to kill a monk of the Dalin Temple, you can use the methods in the 'Poison Sutra'. I didn't do anything and you didn't swear, so you didn't break the oath!"
"My wife is wise!" Zhang Xiaohua nodded slightly.
Before he could lower his head, Zhang Xiaohua cried out, "Aiyo, can you be gentler?"
Meng tightened her grip and said with a red face, "Who is your wife?
I … when did I agree to it? "
"My god, you are holding my hand. Who do you want to marry?"
Zhang Xiaohua suddenly turned his head and broke free from Meng's small hand. He said, "Is there anyone in this world who is more handsome than me?"
Meng's face turned red and she covered her mouth. She almost fell off the four odd beasts. Zhang Xiaohua quickly grabbed Meng's waist and placed her in front of him. He wrapped his arms around Meng's waist and his face was filled with happiness.
Meng closed her eyes and enjoyed this moment of tenderness.
Meng didn't break free until she heard the faint sound of horse hooves in the distance. She said in a low voice, "Xiaohua, I … I think we should go back. I … I always feel uneasy … This Yixia Town … it's okay if we don't go. As long as you are with me … even if I can't find my family and don't know my background … what's the big deal?"
Looking at Meng's sad and determined eyes, Zhang Xiaohua's heart ached. He held Meng's small hand and said, "Everyone has a family. A fallen leaf must return to its root. If you don't know your background, you won't be at peace for the rest of your life.
Besides … if you want to be my wife … don't you want to marry me officially?
If you still have family in this world, don't you want to let them know and make them happy? "
"Who said I want to marry you?" Meng was so shy that her earlobes turned red.
"So, we have to go to this Yixia Town. We have to go to all the places on the list. We have to figure it out. It's the first thing I do for you!"
"Xiaohua, you … you are so nice!" Meng said affectionately.
"Hee hee, you know I'm nice. Why don't you kiss me?" Zhang Xiaohua said shamelessly.
"You …" Meng rolled her eyes at him and then looked around. There didn't seem to be anyone on the mountain road. She moved her mouth closer. Just as she touched Zhang Xiaohua's face, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came. Meng was shocked and immediately moved away. Her face was so red that it looked like it was dripping blood.
With a leap, he jumped back onto the white horse!
"There are so many annoying people in this world!"
Zhang Xiaohua sighed and looked at Meng's cherry lips reluctantly. He had long cursed the person who had come without seeing his shadow ten thousand times in his heart.
The people behind the mountain road were still far away. It took them half a cup of tea's time to catch up with them. Zhang Xiaohua didn't want to look back. She just circled David's Deer to the side and made way for the pipe!
However, annoying people always had annoying things. You couldn't avoid them even if you wanted to.
The newcomers were a group of seven or eight young men in their early twenties. They were all dressed up in bright and colorful clothes. There were even a few of them who had something similar to a pearl hairpin on their temples. It really made people puzzled as to whether they were men or women.
They rode on their horses and stirred up a lot of dust. Meng frowned slightly.
When they passed by, one of the men occasionally looked back. He saw Meng and David's Deer on the side of the road. When he saw Zhang Xiaohua's face, he couldn't help laughing. He shouted, "Senior brothers, look! They are two young men who just came out of Jianghu!"
"Oh?
Really? "
Everyone shouted and reined in their horses. They shouted, "We haven't had fun for a long time. Good food delivered to our door!"
As they spoke, they surrounded the horses and spread out in all directions to block Zhang Xiaohua and Dream's path.
Zhang Xiaohua was already impatient in her heart. She hated these people for ruining her fun. When she saw this, her face was full of panic. However, she sneered in her heart.
"Hey, boy, which sect are you from?" The disciple who saw Zhang Xiaohua shouted.
