After escaping from Fahua Temple, the two of them did not rush down the mountain, but stopped in a forest.
Xu Ping let go of the golden rope in his hand, and Master Dinghu quickly caught up, "Xiao Xu, thank you for saving me, otherwise I, an old man, would have been handed over here."
Xu Ping smiled brightly: "How about it, Master Dinghu, can you see clearly?"
"Hmm..." Master Dinghu nodded and said thoughtfully: "The spy hidden among us should be Che Hui from the Xingyi Sect."
"But the attitude of Fahua Temple is also strange."
Xu Ping shook his head slightly, "I think Master Dinghu hasn't seen clearly yet. It's not that Fahua Temple's attitude is strange, but that Che Hui is simply following Fahua Temple's orders."
Xu Ping was hiding in the dark, and what he observed was naturally clearer than him.
I originally thought that Master Dinghu's trip would not go well, but after thinking about it, he still planned to follow him. It was an unexpected surprise.
"Xiao Xu, what you mean is that Fahua Temple and the demon from the White Lotus Sect are... related?" Master Dinghu guessed.
Xu Ping nodded: "Nine times out of ten."
As he said that, he thought for a moment and then said: "But I still can't judge what kind of collusion there is between that devil and the White Lotus Sect?"
When he showed up just now, he had thought about whether he should fight side by side with Master Dinghu and directly capture all those people.
Although it is somewhat difficult, it is not impossible.
But in this way, it is inevitable that it will scare the grass and scare the snake.
If the leader of the White Lotus Sect really colludes with Yuan Ben and the old monk Kong Ming, it is inevitable that they will not run away.
At that time, it would be even more difficult to find traces of him.
Master Dinghu fell into deep thought and felt that the situation in front of him was a bit tricky.
Seeing this, Xu Ping said: "Actually, if you think about it carefully, it doesn't have to be that troublesome. As long as you find the leader, all the problems can be easily solved."
Master Dinghu was worried: "But they are still in Fahua Temple and have been deceived by the truth. If something unexpected happens, it will be a big blow to the entire practice circle."
Xu Ping smiled: "Just now they drew their swords against you, the real person, but now the real person is still worried about their safety..."
Master Dinghu shook his head: "Xiao Xu, you don't know something. The current situation is turbulent and evil spirits are appearing everywhere. If we don't eliminate the remnants of White Lotus as soon as possible, there is no guarantee that other troubles will not occur."
"Take our Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions as an example. The tripartite people composed of Maoshan, Jinshan Temple, and Lingyin Temple have dealt with hundreds of evil things in recent years."
"It was also during this process that it was discovered that the White Lotus Sect was adding fuel to the flames, so Maoshan took the lead in encircling and suppressing the White Lotus Sect."
It turns out that the person in front of me actually cares about the world... It seems that the situation is similar in various places, and it is all the righteous practitioners who are holding on to prevent it from falling into hell on earth.
After pondering for a moment, Xu Ping said sonorously: "In that case, I will go to Fahua Temple again to get the Tianji Pan and solve this matter as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, Master Dinghu also felt that this was feasible.
They definitely wouldn't have thought that they would go there again after a scene just happened, so they would not be so defensive.
"I'll go with you."
Xu Ping shook his head: "The master should wait here. I can go alone. This time we are going to be thieves. The fewer people, the better."
Master Dinghu didn't force himself any further. He knew that Xu Ping's conduct should still be above his own, and there shouldn't be any danger.
"Then you should be more careful."
"Um!"
Xu Ping nodded, soared into the sky, light and ethereal, and headed in the direction of Fahua Temple.
…
Fahua Temple.
The farce just now came to an end, and under the auspices of Zen Master Kongming, everyone went back to their houses to rest.
Only then did he realize that no one could figure out why Master Dinghu was here.
Could it be that it was really a night attack, trying to harm us?
After Zhang Fengyi returned to the guest room assigned to him, he took out the secret disk from his sleeve, lit the oil lamp, and began to look at it carefully.
The Heavenly Disk is only the size of a bowl and is as bright as the moon in the night sky, but it depicts mountains, rivers, sun, moon and stars, making it a symbol of heaven and earth.
A touch of blood stained the Heaven's Secret Disk, and the Heaven's Secret Disk instantly glowed with white light. But after the white light passed, everything returned to the same state as before, and it was as if nothing had happened.
"Still not working!"
Zhang Fengyi shook his head. In the past, he would never have believed that someone could evade the lock of the Tianji Disk.
Looking at the celestial disk in his hand, Zhang Fengyi thought of Master Dinghu again, and he had a vague guess that Master Dinghu came for him tonight.
"Although I don't believe that Master Dinghu is a spy of the White Lotus Sect, his behavior tonight is indeed very abnormal!"
"And who was the person who was hiding in the dark and suddenly rescued him? With such a high level of morality, he should be able to rank high in the world."
With this thought in his mind, Zhang Fengyi's eyes lit up. What am I guessing here? You can figure it out just by doing the math.
Although using the Heavenly Secret Chart to divine a person's identity will have some backlash on him, the impact is still within the acceptable range. Furthermore, it is extremely important for him to find out the true identity of Master Dinghu.
Touching the sun and moon on the heavenly disk, Zhang Fengyi closed his eyes tightly and muttered something. Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and two rays of clear light shot out from the heavenly disk and shot into his pupils.
The old face was a little blurry at this time, and only those eyes, emitting green-white light, were connected to the heavenly disk, as if they wanted to penetrate everything in the world.
"The mysterious man who rescued Master Dinghu, his true identity..." Zhang Fengyi muttered, and with the sound of his words, thousands of clear lights poured out from the heavenly disk.
When the clear light shines, there are lines of light and shadow outlined on the celestial disk...
"Huh?"
Xu Ping, who had just sneaked into Fahua Temple, suddenly felt an inexplicable palpitation in his heart, as if someone was spying on him secretly.
Xu Ping can be sure that there is absolutely no human hair around him, which means...
Either someone is putting a curse on themselves, or someone is spying on the secret...
"break!"
Xu Ping shouted softly and forcibly cut off the bond. He was not the leader of the White Lotus Sect, and he needed other tools to spy on the secrets.
"puff--"
A mouthful of old blood spurted out. Zhang Fengyi's face turned pale as if he had been hit hard, and the heavenly secret disk in his hand quickly shrunk and lay quietly in his palm.
"Can't figure it out?!"
"Secret cover-up?!"
"..."
Zhang Fengyi, a high-ranking Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain, was completely frightened by what happened in front of him. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked up and down at the heavenly disk in front of him.
At this moment, he was even wondering if this thing was broken.
…
On the other side, in the quiet Zen room.
Zen Master Kongming looked at the two people in front of him with deep eyes, suppressing the anger in his heart, "They are all a bunch of trash, and they can't even keep a single person."
He was originally present just now, but for some reason, the senior brother who threatened to retreat was absent, but a message was suddenly sent to him, asking him to come over quickly.
But after he passed by, the senior brother chanted sutras and chanted Buddha's name and exchanged Buddhist teachings with him. In his opinion, it was basically nonsense.
It wasn't until he realized something was wrong that Zen Master Kongming came to his senses, hurried over and rescued his nephew Yuanben from the hands of Master Dinghu.
Che Hui and Yuan Ben saw the old monk getting angry and did not dare to speak.
Not being able to keep Master Dinghu, they all felt that this matter had nothing to do with me. After all, Master Dinghu's cultivation level was not something they could deal with.
As for the other people, they are not people who listen to what is told. It is good to be able to come up with a plan in a hurry and force them to take action against Master Dinghu.
Zen Master Kongming pondered for a long time and said: "If I guess correctly, what we want is in the gourd hanging on his waist. It's a pity..."
After Che Hui heard about it, he loudly said: "Zen Master Kongming, what is in that gourd?"
"You don't need to know." Yuan Ben said coldly: "The more I know, the more dangerous it will be for you."
Che Hui could no longer bear such threatening words and stood up from the futon: "Let me tell you, although I have some leverage in your hands, it does not mean that I have no bottom line. You must make it clear today.
, is what you did in the past two days related to that devil?"
"I said, you don't need to know!" Yuan Ben slowly stood up from the futon, his eyes sharp, his face full of ferocity, and he still looked like a monk at all.
When Che Hui heard this, he sneered and said: "In that case, there is no need for me, Che Hui, to listen to you. I killed more than a dozen people to practice the technique, but I'm afraid it's nothing to collude with you in colluding with the White Lotus Sect.
What, Ma De, I don’t want to serve you anymore.”
As he said that, he turned to look at Zen Master Kongming and threatened: "Either you are good to me, or the fish is dead and the net is broken."
After saying that, without looking at the expressions of the two of them, he turned around and walked towards the outside of the house. As soon as he took two steps, a sharp whistle sounded behind him.
Che Hui was already prepared. He turned around and thrust out his sword fingers with both hands. Two red flame sword energy burst out from his fingertips. The jade plate spinning at high speed was immediately knocked back by the red flame sword energy.
"Amitabha, it turns out that this is you. You destroyed the Zhang family, obtained the Red Flame Jade, and cultivated the True Red Flame Art..."
"not bad!"
Zen Master Kongming took back the jade plate with one hand, sat on the futon without moving, and laughed.
Che Hui sneered: "Zen Master Kongming, my practice, Che Hui, is definitely not as advanced as yours, but if you want to kill me without alerting others, I'm afraid you can't do it."
"It really can't be done."
Zen Master Kongming nodded and said.
Yuan Ben stood aside, with a sneer on his face, sarcastically, "I thought you wanted to be obedient, so forget it, but since you are looking for death..."
Hearing this suddenly, Che Hui looked surprised, then frowned and looked at Yuan Ben, "How are you doing?"
I saw Yuan Ben taking off the string of Bodhi beads from his neck. The whole string of Bodhi beads in his hand lit up with a faint Buddha agglomeration, which made people feel awe at the first glance.
"Ah this..."
Che Hui's expression changed drastically.
The Buddha agglomeration emanating from the Bodhi beads made him move forward step by step uncontrollably.
Facing this string of bodhi beads, he had no room to parry, and all the energy in his body had been suppressed at this time.
It wasn't until he was within a short distance of the Bodhi beads that Che Hui noticed something strange. He saw the string of Bodhi beads exuding the Buddha's essence, and each bead was engraved with a blossoming lotus.
At this time, under the faint Buddha aura, the blossoming lotus flowers were dyed with pure white color...
White lotus!
Che Hui originally had some guesses, but when he saw this scene with his own eyes, he still couldn't believe it.
"You are from the White Lotus Sect, then you..." He suddenly turned his head and looked at Zen Master Kongming aside, and said in horror: "Could it be that you are the devil we are chasing?!"
Alerted that the bodhi bead was hanging around Yuan Ben's neck, he turned around and looked over, "Could it be you?!"
Zen Master Kongming did not answer, "Yuanben."
After receiving the order, the fat monk looked at Che Hui with a ferocious expression and said coldly: "I've told you everything. The more you know, the more you know."
He clenched his fist and punched Che Hui's lower abdomen fiercely. The power contained in the fist penetrated into his body and shattered his Dantian.
"Yuanben, throw his body into the back mountain and say it was Dinghu. In addition, make another hard trip to bring the Tianji Pan back." Zen Master Kongming ordered.
The fierceness on the face of the fat monk Yuan Ben receded, and the Bodhi beads disappeared, becoming round and smooth again without any trace.
He hung the Bodhi beads around his neck again, picked up Che Hui's body and was about to go out when Yuan Ben asked again: "That Zhang Fengyi from Longhu Mountain..."
"Um……"
Zen Master Kongming nodded, closed his eyes and concentrated, silently reciting Buddhist scriptures.
When the fat monk Yuan Ben saw this, he didn't say anything more. He dropped Che Hui's body in the grass on the back hill and headed straight for Zhang Fengyi's room.
His fat body was very light and he didn't make a single sound when he landed in the yard, but there was still a pair of eyes quietly watching him in the night.
What is this fat monk doing here in the middle of the night?
Xu Ping was startled for a moment, then saw the fat monk and knocked on Zhang Fengyi's door.
Late at night, Taoist priests, monks...
Xu Ping's curiosity was successfully aroused, and he planned to continue to be a voyeur. He came to the shadow of the corner and used the elusive power to hide himself completely. He stretched out a strand of consciousness as long as a hair and observed the room.
of everything.
"hiss……"
Xu Ping was really shocked when he suddenly saw the scene in the room. He didn't think about anything else, but...
I saw Zhang Fengyi, the Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain, who was obviously ready to go to bed. He was wearing gray thin pajamas and walking towards the fat monk with blurred eyes.
The fat monk smiled obscenely, stretched out his hand, and kept groping him.
wrong!
Xu Ping found that the fat monk's left hand had been holding a string of Bodhi beads, and the Bodhi beads exuded the Buddha's agglomeration.
His right hand groped around Zhang Fengyi for a while, but seemed to find nothing, so he started looking around the room.
The string of bodhi beads was hanging in mid-air, still controlling Zhang Fengyi, making him unable to speak or move.
This string of Bodhi beads actually contains the existence of the Buddha...
This kind of magic weapon with spiritual essence was definitely a rare item. It was the first time for Xu Ping to see it, but he was wondering why Yuan Ben didn't use the Bodhi Pearl to deal with Master Dinghu before.
Is there something wrong with this bodhi bead?!
He pondered for a moment and planned to enter the room and take a closer look to find out what the fat monk was up to in the middle of the night.
The moment he entered the room, Xu Ping discovered that the Buddha's aura emanating from the Bodhi beads had given up on Zhang Fengyi and was targeting him.
"Found it!"
Yuan Ben took out a moon disk the size of a bowl from under the pillow at the head of his bed. The mountains, rivers, sun, moon and stars on it were exactly the celestial disk.
After getting the secret disk, Yuan Ben immediately turned around and stepped forward to control the Bodhi beads, hoping to take Zhang Fengyi away from here first.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he got closer, he found that Zhang Fengyi had lost control, and quickly stretched out an arm to grab the Tianji Disk in his hand.
"You bastard thief, why did you steal my secret disc?"
