Ouchi Taming the Cat, starting with the Ten Tiger Forms!

Chapter 574 Buddhism
Li Xuan was secretly on guard against the people in front of him, but he couldn't just turn around and run away.

These three monks and one Taoist priest are all top-three-rank warriors. No matter how they run, they can't outrun these people.

Seeing that Chen Tan and Jiang Shanao stayed obediently and did not make any other unusual movements, the three monks and the Taoist priest did not pay too much attention to them.

Although Chen Tan and Jiang Shanao are both well-known figures in the martial arts world, they are indeed not impressive enough here.

The three masters and Taoist Sanxi seemed to be familiar with each other and began to chat and discuss the riot tonight.

From time to time, they would ask Chen Tan and Jiang Shanao a few questions to find out more about the situation.

Faced with a master of this level, Chen Tan and Jiang Shanao did not dare to lie, but they only told part of the truth.

They only said that they were asked to help hunt down the criminals, and did not mention that they and Bilge were cellmates.

Li Xuan waited anxiously, hoping that Shang Zongguan and Zhao Fengxian would find them first.

With such a big commotion here, it must have attracted the attention of the two parties fighting in the Ministry of Justice’s Heavenly Prison. I just don’t know who will arrive first.

"Ah Xuan, why are you here too?"

Master Chenghai came to Li Xuan and asked softly.

The others looked at Master Chenghai strangely, wondering why he would ask a cat questions. He certainly didn't expect a cat to answer his questions, right?

Except for Chen Tan who had some guesses, everyone else present was confused.

After several contacts, Chen Tan discovered that Li Xuan's intelligence was truly extraordinary. He would not be surprised even if he had the ability to communicate with others in a simple way.

Master Chenghai stretched out a hand towards Li Xuan, and Li Xuan jumped on it without any hesitation.

"Junior Brother Chenghai, isn't this the guardian beast of your temple?"

"Shouldn't you be very clear about his whereabouts?"

Monk Chengche asked sarcastically from the side.

When Li Xuan fought for Ci'en Temple and defeated their Yuanhu, he felt something was wrong.

If Ci'en Temple had such a powerful guardian beast, it would have used it to slap the face of Fuhu Temple long ago.

Why would he hesitate for several days before using such a powerful weapon?

As for the claim that Li Xuan had been subdued by the new monk, Monk Chengche didn't believe it at all.

At first glance, Li Xuan is a well-trained combat pet. He must have gone through years of training to have his current strength.

Although Monk Chengche understood it in his heart, it was also a great achievement for Ci'en Temple to borrow Li Xuan.

In fact, he was also very clear that when the two were equally powerful, a debate based solely on Buddhist teachings would not produce any results.

Tonight, Monk Chengche and Master Chenghai appeared here, and they also wanted to ask Master Shanliao, who is highly respected in the Buddhist community in the capital, to do justice for them.

But before justice was done, there was a commotion tonight, which attracted three Buddhist monks to come out and block Bilge's way.

Especially Monk Chengche, he finally made an appointment with Master Shanliao, and they were just about to discuss and come to a conclusion together tonight, but then the jailbroken Bilge interfered. Do you think he wouldn't be furious?

Besides, Monk Chengche’s temper has never been very good.

Bilge really deserved the beating he got tonight.

When Li Xuan saw Master Chenghai asking questions, he just used his tail to write on his palm cryptically, saying that he was working for Princess Ankang.

Master Chenghai stopped asking questions and just nodded, continuing to support Li Xuan with his palm.

The main reason was that Li Xuan showed no signs of going down, and Master Chenghai was reluctant to chase him down.

Chen Tan and Jiang Shan'ao, who were standing by, saw that Li Xuan was familiar with Master Chenghai and even asked the Buddhist monk to support him. They couldn't help but be secretly surprised that Li Xuan had such a high status.

Moreover, they just heard the loud-voiced burly monk say that Li Xuan was the guardian beast of Ci'en Temple, which made them feel that Li Xuan was even more mysterious.

"Isn't this cat raised by Princess Ankang?"

"Why is it related to Buddhism?"

"From the looks of it, it seems to be closely related to Ci'en Temple..."

Chen Tan's expression was calm and composed, but his heart was filled with turmoil.

He had previously managed the Money Gang and was able to remain standing in the capital by maneuvering between various forces, not offending anyone while providing high-quality services and creating the image that the Money Gang was only concerned with making money.

Such a money gang is reassuring, and Chen Tan understood this very early on.

If the Money Gang changes its nature, will it still be tolerated by the major forces in the capital?

Chen Tan is very clear about the answer to this question.

This is also one of the reasons why he has always been unwilling to submit to King Zheng.

And Li Xuan...

No, it should be said that Princess Ankang and the royal power she represents do not seem to be as simple as Chen Tan had previously understood.

Chen Tan looked at Li Xuan, who was held in the palm of Master Chenghai's hand, and seemed to be thinking about something.

They didn't wait long there.

After a while, Li Xuan felt a familiar breeze.

Zhao Feng gracefully rode the wind and appeared in front of everyone.

The three monks and one person also stopped chatting and turned their eyes to Zhao Feng who had rushed here.

"Manager Zhao, I haven't seen you for many years. I didn't expect that you have become even stronger. Congratulations."

Master Shanliao stepped forward and performed a Buddhist salute.

"Master Shanliao, I didn't expect to alarm you tonight."

"As for my breakthrough, it is nothing in front of you."

Zhao Feng laughed a few times and exchanged a few polite words with the three monks.

Zhao Feng was very familiar with Master Shanliao, Master Chenghai and Taoist Priest Sanxi, but he was unfamiliar with Monk Chengche.

But seeing that Monk Chengche was a Buddhist disciple, Zhao Fengyu did not become suspicious and just asked casually:

"I wonder who this master is?"

"This poor monk from Fuhu Temple is clear."

Monk Chengche was not rude. He introduced himself, clasped his hands together and bowed.

Master Shanliao and Master Chenghai on the side also helped to introduce him, and Zhao Feng immediately understood the origins of Monk Chengche.

When he heard that Fuhu Temple was an old temple located in the deep mountains of Jiangnan Road, Zhao Feng's expression became unnatural for a moment, but he quickly concealed it. Only Li Xuan, who was familiar with him, noticed the abnormality.

After they chatted for a while and figured out the situation, Zhao Feng asked for the people and prepared to report.

The three monks and the Taoist priest did not make things difficult for Zhao Feng, but politely let Zhao Feng leave.

Seeing that there were no further setbacks, Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and jumped from Master Chenghai's hand to Zhao Feng's shoulder.

Although he had many questions he wanted to ask Zhao Feng, the occasion and timing were not right.

"Today, the four of you have acted bravely. I will commend you all in front of His Majesty."

"Master Zhao, you're welcome." Master Shan Liao waved his hand at Zhao Feng's words and continued, "We are just doing a small favor. This matter is also thanks to a chivalrous man who kept warning us with voice transmission. Otherwise, without knowing the truth, we monks would not dare to intervene easily."

"If Manager Zhao is willing, please help repair these damaged markets as soon as possible and give justice to the suffering people."

After hearing Master Shan Liao's request, Zhao Feng nodded and said, "I admire you four for your kindness. I will remember this matter. You can rest assured."

"Haha, Manager Zhao, there's no need to be too nervous. The people in the surrounding towns and markets were just frightened, there were no casualties. When that thief from the desert was committing crimes before, Master Shan Liao secretly took action and protected the people. Only some buildings in the towns and markets were damaged." Taoist Sanxi, who had been silent all this time, spoke up.

These words made Zhao Feng feel much more relaxed.

This is in the northwest of the capital, just west of the imperial city.

Several nearby markets are quite special, with many temples, Taoist temples, and even Hu temples.

Xiuxiangfang, Xiuzhenfang, Xiudefang, Puningfang, Andingfang...

You can get the clue just from the names of these markets.

There are many temples and Taoist temples built by imperial order around here, and the geographical location is excellent, right next to the imperial city, and all the residents are devout believers from wealthy families.

If the casualties here are really heavy, even Zhao Feng will have a hard time handling it.

Taoist Priest Sanxi's words made Zhao Feng feel a lot more relaxed.

Although he had little contact with Taoist Priest Sanxi, Li Xuan had a good impression of him.

Although Taoist Priest Sanxi is also a practicing Taoist, he acts and speaks in a very unrestrained, free and straightforward manner, which makes people like him.

Speaking of which, Li Xuan had never had much contact with Taoist people before, and Taoist Sanxi was the first Taoist who left a deep impression on Li Xuan.

After saying these things, Zhao Feng said goodbye to the four people and hurriedly left with Li Xuan and the others.

Zhao Feng did not waste any time. He rode the wind and led them to evacuate, heading quickly towards the imperial palace.

The three monks looked at Zhao Feng's graceful departure and nodded, saying:

"What Manager Zhao said seems to be quite interesting."

Taoist Priest Sanxi first made this comment.

"The Dao of wind attributes is the most unpredictable, and Manager Zhao's Dao seems to be more in line with it." Master Shanliao also agreed.

"The wind he rides on when he comes and goes is so natural that it is difficult to detect any abnormality. If one's understanding is deeper, I'm afraid it will be even more hidden." Master Chenghai also said.

These top three masters like to appreciate the ways of others the most.

The manifestations of Tao are ever-changing; even the same attributes can be used in completely different ways.

In particular, each person’s Tao will reflect his or her own character to a great extent.

Some even realized their own path and realized that there was such a side to their character, which deepened their understanding of themselves.

Enlightenment is enlightenment of heaven and earth, and even more so, enlightenment of oneself.

And the ways of others are also part of this world.

However, Monk Chengche, looking at Zhao Feng's back, expressed a different opinion.

"Is he the chief steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"

"This strength is also very average."

Although they are all of the third rank, their comprehension of their own Dao is different, and the difference in strength can be very obvious.

Monk Chengche is the one who is qualified to say this.

"Brother Chengche, Manager Zhao was injured in his early years, and his cultivation has not improved at all. He should have had an opportunity recently, and this is how he was able to make great progress and reach a higher level."

Master Chenghai knew that Monk Chengche knew little about what was happening in the capital, so he immediately began to explain to avoid any misunderstanding.

After all, there was a outsider standing next to them, and it would be bad if any gossip got out.

The conflicts within their Buddhist community are internal conflicts. If the reputation of Buddhism is damaged as a result, both Ci'en Temple and Fuhu Temple will become sinners of Buddhism.

This kind of thinking is incomprehensible to Taoists.

Taoist Priest Sanxi pretended not to understand and stood aside with a smile, chatting with Master Shanliao about the damage that had just occurred in the two markets.

Although Monk Chengche is reckless, he is not a fool, otherwise Fuhu Temple would not have let him lead the team to Beijing this time.

Monk Chengche curled his lips but didn't say anything else.

"Well, after what happened today, there is no time to talk about other things. Let's help the people around us clean up the ruins first."

"I will go and call the disciples in the temple. Please wait for me for a moment."

"I will also go to greet the disciples." Taoist Sanxi bowed, flicked his whisk, and left with a smile.

Only Master Chenghai and Monk Chengche were left at the scene.

Now that there were only the two of them left, it was easier to talk about some things.

"Brother Chengche, the capital city is full of hidden talents, and the current situation is very treacherous. It is really not a place worth getting involved in."

"The way out of Fuhu Temple is probably not here."

Master Chenghai advised earnestly.

Monk Chengche raised his hand to stop Master Chenghai from speaking.

"Junior Brother Chenghai, although you and I are only brothers in name, we still have a bond that is passed down from one bloodline. I know you have your own difficulties."

"But if our Fuhu Temple had other methods, we wouldn't have to come to this point today."

"The way out of Fuhu Temple may not be in the capital, but it is definitely not in the deep mountains of Jiangnan Road."

"There are only two paths before us. Either seek change, or watch the Fuhu Temple's inheritance end."

When Master Chenghai heard this, he couldn't help but frowned deeply.

"What happened in Fuhu Temple?"

"Brother, why are you so reluctant to speak out?"

"Just now in front of Master Shan Liao, why are you always hiding it?"

Master Chenghai asked in confusion.

"If you don't promise me, I will never reveal even a single word about this matter!"

Monk Chengche was firm in this regard.

This stubborn attitude left Master Chenghai helpless and he could only shake his head silently.

It was obvious that Fuhu Temple had something to ask for, but their attitude was so extreme that even Master Chenghai couldn't help but get angry.

Master Chenghai couldn't understand why Fuhu Temple would send such a stubborn person like Brother Chengche to negotiate. Didn't the other people in Fuhu Temple know that he had such a stubborn personality?
Seeing that Monk Chengche was determined, Master Chenghai stopped asking questions.

But seeing the stubborn look of Monk Chengche, Master Chenghai couldn't bear it after all, so he reminded him:
"If there is a problem that Fuhu Temple can't solve, Ci'en Temple can't solve it, can't other Buddhists help?"

"In the worst case scenario, we can ask Fuyun Temple to intervene. I hope that Senior Brother can also consider it and seek help from others."

In Master Chenghai's opinion, since Monk Chengche was willing to seek justice from Master Shanliao, he should be open to seeking help from other Buddhist fellows.

But Monk Chengche heard this and sneered:

"Since you call me your senior brother, I will remind you."

"The Buddhism of today is no longer the Buddhism of the past."

"It's hard to tell who is on the same page as whom!"

Monk Chengche's words were full of strong personal emotions. Master Chenghai was shocked and asked hurriedly:

"Senior brother, what do you mean?"
