Chapter 318: The boat parked in the middle of the river
The boat sailed upstream on the river at an astonishing speed. The bow of the boat cuts through the waves like an indestructible horizontal knife.
Lu Minglan fell down on the bow of the boat, her body as stiff as a stone, but she was very free.
No one sealed her bloodline, and no one put a steel knife on her neck. The monk in white robes stood at the stern of the boat with his hands behind his back and ignored her at all. But Lu Minglan didn't dare to move, just like a frightened cat curled up on the bow of the boat.
Her mind was filled with the previous scene of the monk killing someone with one hand, as if it was deeply imprinted in her mind and she could not get rid of it. Li Huo's sword seemed to her to be so sharp that few could match it, but in front of this monk, it was as weak as a piece of grass. The sword that Li Huo had gathered all his skills into, the sword that was at the pinnacle of his life, was easily caught by the monk's two fingers, and then twisted, causing the sword to break.
The next second, the monk tapped Li Huo¡¯s forehead.
The next second, Li Huo turned into a corpse.
His brother, Li Nan, a great cultivator of the ninth grade, died at the hands of people from the Buddhist sect, and he also died at the hands of people from the Buddhist sect. This is as hard to escape from as fate.
At that moment, Lu Minglan, who thought she was a good person, didn't even have the courage to struggle. She always felt that she was stronger than men, but when Li Huo fell, she realized that she was still just a woman who lacked courage. Li Huo died, and those companions also died one after another.
No one flinched, although they were all shaking.
She didn¡¯t die because she was too scared to take action.
The white-robed monk stood at the stern of the boat, not touching the oar at all. But the boat seemed to have a life of its own, racing forward like an arrow leaving its string against the river. He quickly left the Shura field and quickly surpassed the big boat Fang Jie was riding on, without any intention of stopping.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you."
The monk glanced at Lu Minglan indifferently and said in a very gentle tone: "I need a guide. From the world of great kindness in the West to the land of demons in the East, I have walked for a long time because I have never been here before and I have to avoid people with prejudices and obsessions. Sui people. Originally, I planned to go where I wanted to go after catching up with the person I wanted to find, but since he is also going there, I simply went to wait for him. "
Lu Minglan didn¡¯t understand what the monk was talking about, and she didn¡¯t dare to answer.
"Outside of the Sui Dynasty, everyone in the world paid homage to King Ming and was dedicated to good deeds. But when he arrived in the land of the Sui people, all he saw was human nature full of evil deeds. How could people be without awe and restraint? How could the imperial power alone make people feel helpless? Evil thoughts? It¡¯s strange that a country like the Sui Dynasty can live for more than a hundred years, and I still can¡¯t figure out the reason.¡±
"King Ming said that existence is the truth."
He frowned slightly and said: "In this case, it means that the existence of the Great Sui Dynasty is also inevitable. There is no doubt about what King Ming said, so I think it is because I have practiced Zen for so many years and there are still many things that I have not been able to understand. King Ming is unparalleled in the world in wisdom. , he said that the world in the scriptures is just a small world, and people¡¯s vision is limited. The world out there is full of strange things, and only when you can see it clearly can you truly understand.¡±
He talked to himself, but what he said was serious and sincere.
"who are you?"
Lu Minglan asked tremblingly: "Where do you want me to take you?"
The white-robed monk turned to look at Lu Minglan, smiled and said in a gentle tone: "I came down from Dalun Temple in the Great Snow Mountain in the Great Good World of the West. I was originally going to go to your imperial capital Chang'an to meet someone, but unfortunately he had already left when I arrived. According to the schedule, I should meet him first and then go to Yongzhou with him to meet another person. But since he is also going to Yongzhou, it will be a lot of trouble for me to go to find him again. It is difficult to deal with two people around him. I might as well go first and wait for him there."
"Yongzhouit turns out you are going to Yongzhou too."
It was at this time that Lu Minglan could see the monk's face clearly through the faint moonlight. This is a very young and clean face. It looks like he is not very old. Compared with the vicissitudes in his voice, he is much younger. He has a pair of very bright eyes that seem to see through everything. He has a beautiful mouth, and every word that comes out of his mouth sounds beautiful.
"You are better than them all."
The white-robed monk took a few steps forward, stood in front of Lu Minglan and leaned over to look at her: "You know not to sow evil, so you don't have to go to hell and suffer."
"How old are you?"
Looking at this charming face and his eyes, Lu Minglan unexpectedly asked an irrelevant question.
"I?"
The monk frowned slightly, then pinched his fingers and counted carefully: "I really can't remember. I only remember that the first time I retreated in the Fengjing Tower was seventeen years, the second time was twenty years, and the fourth time was seventeen years. The first time was thirteen yearswrong, the third time was due to serious injuries and recuperation, so it cannot be regarded as retreatHuh?"
He let out a light sigh, and then said with some sadness: "How come I remember these trivial things so clearly? I always thought that by retreating in seclusion, I could calm down and practice hard, but I am still counting the days No wonder King Ming said that I am far away in this life. After all, there is still a little less than perfect. It turns out that King Ming has long seen through my inability to meditate completely. Even though I still remember how many years have passed since my first retreat, I actually remember which scriptures I read and which mantras I understood during my first retreat. I don¡¯t remember it at all.¡±
"I'm sad."
When he finished saying this, Lu Minglan shed tears.
She was also very sad, very sad. She felt like her heart was being cut with a knife, but she knew that it was not her own sadness, but the monk's sadness. After just speaking a few words to him face to face, Lu Minglan found that she had lost herself, and her heart was filled with the feelings of this monk.
She felt like she was going to die of sadness.
"Will you follow me?"
The monk sat down in front of Lu Minglan and asked softly.
Lu Minglan nodded vigorously with tears in her eyes: "I do."
"Take off your clothes."
The monk said gently: "Since you want to follow me, you must be honest and can't hide anything. Let me see your body clearly and get rid of all the sins on your body."
"good"
Lu Minglan nodded, looked directly into the monk's eyes, raised her hands and slowly unbuttoned her clothes. Under the moonlight, that charming body gradually emerged, so white. The movements of her hands were gentle and mechanical, as if there was no life in them.
Soon, her proud breasts, flat belly and the most secret places were all exposed to the monk.
The monk waved, and she crawled over like a well-behaved kitten.
¡¡
¡¡
Fang Jie's heart became more and more tense.
Looking at the fatal injuries on the corpses, a figure of a person appeared in his mind.
Miao Monk Chenya
¡°But this man is already dead, completely dead. Moreover, it was in his hands that he died. That day on Banyue Mountain, he watched helplessly as Ma Lilian stabbed Chen Ya's heart with a horizontal knife. If Chen Ya could survive like this, Fang Jie would rather believe that what happened on Ban Yue Mountain was just a dream.
He walked to the bodies of the fisherman couple again, the hatred in his eyes gradually spreading.
The fisherman died very simply, with no scars on his body, but Fang Jie knew that this man's heart must have been broken. The master had used the pressure of his inner strength to shatter the heart alive. As for that woman, her clothes were nowhere to be found. She was lying naked on the ground, her two plump thighs still spread apart. Under the light of the torch, Fang Jie saw an intoxicated expression on her face.
Extreme joy, extreme joy.
She died when she was most confused, so there was no pain.
¡°Similarly, no fatal injuries were visible on her body. Only the remaining finger marks can be seen on the white breasts. It is obvious that these plump breasts have been ravaged unscrupulously.
The expression on her face was completely different from that of her husband. Her face was full of satisfaction, while his face was full of anger and fear.
These two people died earlier than the dark guards. Obviously, these two people had been poisoned while the dark guards were still in the bushes.
¡°There aren¡¯t many clues.¡±
Mu Xiaoyao took off his cloak and covered the woman's body. He looked at Fang Jie and shook his head: "This person strikes too quickly and too harshly. He kills with one move, and his killing method is simple and effective. Except for this couple, Except for the two of them, the other dead people only had one fatal wound on their forehead, so there was no way to guess the murderer's martial arts from the injuries. We arrived a little late, and we didn't even get a clear look at the person on the boat that left. ¡±
"I know¡¡"
Fang Jie sat down on the ground and breathed a sigh of relief: "They are catching up again."
Hearing this, Mu Xiaoyao and Shen Qingshan, who were standing by the river, changed their expressions at the same time. Shen Qingshan turned around and looked at Fang Jie, with a murderous look in his eyes.
"It would be best if they come."
Shen Qingshan spat out a few words lightly, extremely coldly.
"Dispose of all the bodies."
Fang Jie calmly ordered: "Yan Kuang, ask the guards on the ship to come down and dispose of the corpses. If these corpses are left behind, there will be another unsolved case in the place. By then, the people will be scared, the government will be restless, and they don't know How many people are afraid of being punished for this?¡±
Yan Kuang responded, squatting down and caressing Li Huo's open eyes: "Although they are annoying, they are my comrades after all. If I know who did it, they will also lose their lives." I also want justice for them.¡±
After saying this, he got up and went back to the ship to summon the Flying Fish Robe.
Because Chen Heng and Chen Ha didn't feel that they were interested, they squatted by the river not far away and competed with each other to see who was braver.
¡°I bet the fish won¡¯t dare to jump out and bite me!¡±
¡°I bet you don¡¯t dare to jump out and bite me!¡±
"We all say that fish don't dare, so how can we bet and how can we count as a winner?"
"Of course we are all winners!"
The two of them were trembling while talking, as if they were really afraid of a fish jumping out. There is no doubt that if a fish really jumped out, the two of them would definitely run away.
"Let's go back"
Fang Jie took a deep breath and called Chen Heng and Chen Ha: "The fish have all fallen asleep and will not come out."
Chen Heng and Chen Ha immediately breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and then they both stood up at the same time and straightened their chests.
"Who is afraid of fish?"
"I knew the fish were all scared away by us, we ate so many fish"

By the river, Zhuo Buyi looked at the small boat floating in the middle of the river with the water.
He discovered the fight among the dark guards earlier than Fang Jie and the others, but when he rushed over, Li Huo and others were already dead. But the monk had already let the boat drift away from the shore, and he could not catch up. At this time, Fang Jie and the others came again, so he had to retreat.
But he did not give up, but kept galloping westward along the river.
Finally, he saw the boat stopped in the middle of the river.
A small boat without an anchor could actually stop in the middle of the river and float up and down with the waves without being washed away. On the boat, the two naked people were still entangled.
The sweet moans reached Zhuo Buyi¡¯s ears, making his stomach churn.
