Chapter 339: The Three Monks of Sumeru
On the Golden Palace, Xu Wen looked at the three-dimensional eminent monk from Mount Xumi in front of him.
Although I didn't dare to be negligent, I didn't appear to be vino either.
Faced with the direct stares and questions from the three eminent monks, he behaved very calmly and calmly.
Xu Wen did not speak first. Sometimes silence is the leverage to ensure the first move in negotiations.
The person who speaks first usually loses.
For Xu Wen, the situation before him was a negotiation.
Even now that he is pregnant with Yeying, Xu Wen has no fear at all.
The expressions of the three eminent monks after looking at Xu Wen are also worth pondering.
Xu Wen is an expert in micro-expressions. No one knows better than him what a person's expression can say.
For Xu Wen, he may not have the Buddhist wisdom to see through other people's inner thoughts.
But he only needs to look at other people's expressions to know what they are thinking or what they want to say.
The expressions of the three eminent monks told Xu Wen this.
They were looking for something in Xu Wen, but they didn't seem to find it.
In other words, they were not sure whether Xu Wen had it on him.
According to Xu Wen's own understanding, it is.
These three eminent monks from Mount Xumi originally wanted to use their eyes to see through the night baby hidden in Xu Wen's body.
But they didn't find it, or they weren't sure. They could just vaguely feel that Xu Wen's body was full of evil energy.
Xu Wen thought to himself that the reason for this strange misleading was probably because of the sleeping night baby in his body.
This time's deep sleep is not an ordinary deep sleep.
The night baby is almost on the verge of life and death.
In Xu Wen's soul, there is only a small soul imprint of Ye Ying.
This is why the three eminent monks who had opened their eyes could not see through the truth inside Xu Wen's body.
So for Xu Wen, this may be an opportunity. As long as he seizes this opportunity, he may be able to successfully negotiate.
So Xu Wen still remained silent, but this time, Xu Wen's silence was filled with a playful smile.
Finally, one of the three eminent monks could not bear the silence.
They were the first to break the silence.
One of the leaders, a thin eminent monk, took a step forward, then placed his left hand on his staff and his right hand in front of his chest to perform rituals.
"Amitabha, I am the great evil-destroying king of Mount Sumeru."
"The two beside me are the Great Demon-Slaying King and the Ghost-Suppressing Great King!"
"I came to Wudang today to suppress evil spirits and exorcise demons."
The old monk came menacingly and forcefully. He didn't say hello or visit. Instead, he directly came to Xu Wen to suppress evil spirits and exorcise demons."
After Xu Wen heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Three eminent monks, you suppress evil spirits and exorcise demons, why did you come to my Wudang?"
"Anyway, Wudang is also a famous Taoist sect. Who doesn't know that Wudang is also famous in the world of exorcism?"
"Wudang hates evil as much as its enemies, and responds with force. This is the place where evil spirits fear the most. You have obviously found the wrong place."
Xu Wen smiled and spoke softly, but was not shocked by the aura of the three eminent monks.
After hearing this, the three eminent monks from Mount Xumi frowned instantly.
They squinted at Xu Wen and then said.
"Since Master Xu is so swearing, can you let me ask you a few questions?"
asked the leading old monk.
There was no embarrassment at all.
Xu Wen was not afraid and continued to speak.
"Master, just ask if you have anything to say. I will tell you everything I know. I will tell you everything."
After hearing this, the old monk continued to ask.
"Master Xu, will you participate in the Battle of Mud City?"
Xu Wen answered honestly.
"I'm not talented, but I did my best in the battle of Mud City."
The old monk nodded.
"So, you just participated, right?"
"As far as I know, Master Xu not only participated in the Battle of Micheng, but was also the most critical figure in that war."
"I heard that in the end, it was Master Xu who fought fiercely with the strange demons to resolve the crisis in the mud city, right?"
After Xu Wen heard this, he laughed.
"Master, you are so exalted. I, Xu Wen, am so capable that you make me look like a savior."
"Who in the world doesn't know that it is you, the Buddhist monks of Mount Sumeru, who can solve the crisis in the mud city?"
"Eminent monks, just by talking and chanting sutras, the evil spirits were so frightened that they peeed and crawled back to their hometowns."
Xu Wen heard that there was something in his words, but instead he was mocking the three Buddhist monks present.
Because there have been rumors from the outside world that it was these mysterious eminent monks who solved the crisis in Mud City.
No one from the Taoist sect came forward to explain, but the Buddhist sect seemed to accept the honor naturally.
Now Xu Wen took this topic and asked the three eminent monks in front of him, but they were speechless.
Yes, what did the Buddhists do in the Battle of Mud City?
Just like Xu Wen said, if you go out and talk and recite sutras, you will be praised by the world.
But what about Daomen? How many sacrifices did they make in the battle of Mucheng?
Just in Wudang, from top to bottom, all the core characters died.
Now it is the turn of Xu Wen, the junior uncle who has been a member of the sect for less than a year, to ascend to the position of leader.
Speaking of which, it's a little funny and a little sad.
After losing so much Wudang, what did you gain in exchange?
Is anyone here to present the award?
Is anyone here to express condolences?
Is anyone here to sing your praises?
Does anyone come to pay homage?
No, nothing.
Didn't get anything, but were questioned by three monks?
Xu Wen didn't want to get emotional, so he tried his best to suppress his inner emotions.
Xu Wen is not unconvinced. Taoists often say that the best is like water, and Taoism is natural.
In contrast, Taoist priests seem to have not valued this kind of fame and wealth since ancient times.
Facing Xu Wen's words, the three menacing monks instantly showed weakness.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became much more awkward.
It's a bit embarrassing. I don't have enough confidence to take advantage of someone who has been given a false reputation!
But the leading monk was not stopped by Xu Wen's questions.
He replied calmly.
"The Taoist sect has never thought about competing for credit and fame over the mud city's merits."
"We Buddhists don't even bother to explain it!"
"What the world thinks, that's their business."
"My Buddha is compassionate. After the Buddha felt the suffering of the common people, he sent us out of the mountain to save the world and save all sentient beings as soon as possible."
"Before leaving, the Buddha gave me a message. This time when I came out of the mountain, a strange demon appeared in the world. Kill the demon and destroy it, and set the right path. You must not be merciful."
"When I came out of the mountain, I came just to slay the demons."
"As far as I know, during the battle in Mud City, Master Xu released a demonic energy that was different from this world."
"During the final battle, a demon will come."
"So we have enough evidence to suspect that Master Xu is possessed by a powerful strange demon."
"Master Xu, for you, for Wudang, for the entire Taoist sect, and for the entire world."
