Chapter 109: Be Frank and Honest (200 votes plus more)
"Haha, you are so arrogant. Listen carefully, kid. I am the son of the Yellow Dragon King, the god of the Qiantang River. I am Little Yellow Dragon!" The young man said proudly, "Today I have come to capture the slave who disobeyed the Dragon Palace. If you dare to stop me, you will be the enemy of the Qiantang Dragon Palace. Do you know how serious the consequences will be? Why don't you retreat quickly?"

"It is true that the smaller the temple, the more evil spirits there are, and the shallower the water, the more turtles there are." Chen Baxian laughed strangely, "The real dragon in Taihu Lake calls itself a duke, how dare a broken dragon in a river call itself a king?"

"How dare you!" The young master saw that his father's name could not intimidate them, and he immediately flew into a rage: "Since you can't understand what I'm saying, then go to hell!"

"Kill these two maniacs!" He waved his hand, and the sword-wielding maids and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals rushed forward again.

But this time the strength of the two sides was reversed.

With Ren Yuan's blessing, Chen Baxian's Panlong Stick danced like water, which was especially suitable for clearing small monsters. Ren Yuan's Zhuxie Blade was very harmful to monsters, and if it touched them, they would be seriously injured.

The senior sister was originally restrained because she had to protect Su Xiaoxiao, but now she can let go and fight.

Su Xiaoxiao was finally able to stand behind the three people. She let go of the umbrella handle, and the oil-paper umbrella hung in the air above her head.

Then a pipa appeared in her arms, and she said tenderly, "A song of "Breaking the Formation" to help the three of you defeat the enemy!"

After saying that, he pressed the strings with his left hand and plucked the strings vigorously with the five fingers of his right hand. The sonorous and passionate sound of the pipa was like a silver bottle exploding or thousands of horses galloping, exploding in everyone's ears!

But the difference is that after listening to the "Breaking Song", Ren Yuan and the other two felt their blood boiling and they felt like they had endless energy, and their fighting power increased dramatically!

However, those shrimp soldiers, crab generals and sword-wielding maids could not control their fear after hearing this. They felt guilty and short of breath, and could not use more than 70% of their fighting strength.

As one side gained strength, the other side lost strength. Ren Yuan and his two companions, who already had the upper hand, became even more powerful. They cut crab claws and chopped shrimp heads like chopping melons and vegetables, and wiped out all the shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

The four sword-wielding maids were also being beaten back step by step and were on the verge of being defeated.

"Retreat!" Little Yellow Dragon shouted, and the four maids retreated to his side and stood with swords in hand.

Ren Yuan swung his sword and a beam of blood flashed out, but when it reached the little yellow dragon, it was blocked by a halo of light and turned into invisible.

"Boy, I am not well prepared today, so I want you to live two more days." Little Yellow Dragon shouted, "Tell me your name if you dare, and we will fight again another day!"

"I am the disciple of Master Xingchi of Lingyin Temple, Wukong!" Ren Yuan shouted, "This is my senior brother Wuneng!"

"..." Although Chen Baxian was unhappy about being called 'incompetent', he could only follow Ren Yuan and said, "Yes, we'll wait for you."

"Haha, it turns out to be the disciple of that infatuated guy." Xiao Huanglong obviously knew a lot about Su Xiaoxiao. He not only knew that Bao Ren became a monk in Lingyin Temple, but also knew his Buddhist name.

"Kid, don't think you can get away with it just by moving the Lingyin Temple signboard," Little Yellow Dragon sneered, "If you have the guts, just stay in the temple and don't come out."

"Besides, these two women can't enter the Buddhist temple, right?" He laughed arrogantly, "Wait until I catch them, and see what you can do!"

After saying this, he revealed his true form and flew away on a cloud with four maids.

"It's just a small dragon without any horns." Chen Baxian spat at the sky and said, "Why are you so arrogant?"

Over there, Su Xiaoxiao also put away her pipa, picked up her oil-paper umbrella again, and apologized to everyone, saying, "I'm sorry for causing trouble to you all."

"We are the ones who should apologize." Ren Yuan shook his head and said seriously, "It is probably because the oil-walled car was flaunted in the streets and was spotted by the little yellow dragon's spies."

"Alas, in fact, all the land and water monsters in Qiantang obey the orders of Old Huanglong." Su Xiaoxiao sighed softly, "They have eyes and ears everywhere. It's only a matter of time before they are discovered."

"Anyway, let's move first." Ren Yuan said, "If it doesn't work, you can leave Qiantang with us tomorrow and go far away. Let him find you."

"Did you meet Master Bao?" Su Xiaoxiao was so smart that she realized immediately that they did not get what they wanted.

"I saw it." Ren Yuan nodded and sighed, "But the Taoist priest has lost his memory. He even forgot his own name, let alone other things."

"He is very intelligent, has a photographic memory, and has opened his eyes. This shouldn't happen." Su Xiaoxiao said sadly, "Something must have happened." "Didn't Miss Xiaoxiao say," Ren Yuan asked again, "that Master Bao became like this after he went to Lingyin Temple three years ago and debated with the eminent monk from the capital?"

"Yes." Su Xiaoxiao nodded slightly.

"How tall is that monk?" Ren Yuan asked.

"Very high." Su Xiaoxiao said solemnly, "He is Master Zhendi, the abbot of Tongtai Temple, the world's number one temple."

"So what is the level of this real master?"

Su Xiaoxiao was silent for a while, then whispered: "All nine orifices are fully opened, even half human, half god..."

"Just pretend I didn't ask." Ren Yuan smiled awkwardly. The gap between the two sides was so great that he couldn't imagine it.

"Don't worry. Monk Zhendi is far away in Jiankang, and the three eminent monks who preside over Lingyin Temple have only opened six orifices." Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly comforted him.

"..." Ren Yuan didn't know what to say. To him, is there any difference between nine orifices and six orifices? There is no difference at all.

~~
That night, the four of them moved to another secret base of Su Xiaoxiao, which was far away from Qiantang River and they could probably hide there for two or three days without being discovered.

After everything was settled, Ren Yuan finally lay down with peace of mind, resting his head on the Immortal Pillow.

On the other side of the cave, Chen Baxian had already fallen asleep...

~~
As soon as Ren Yuan got on the Qianli ship, he saw Chen Baxian and Yang Zhong staring at each other.

Now that Yang Zhong was around, it was not convenient for the two to talk about what happened during the day. Ren Yuan simply exchanged a few words of greeting and went to his own practice position.

"By the way, Captain," Yang Zhong spoke first for the first time, "Let's chat."

"Okay." Ren Yuan nodded, came down from the top of the boat, sat down in front of Yang Zhong, and said with a smile: "Brother Yang, what do you want to talk about?"

"I've been thinking about this for the past few days," Yang Zhong said slowly, "I may find it difficult to abide by the ship owner's three rules."

"What do you mean?" Ren Yuan asked calmly.

"Old Yang, you are such a bad guy. You want to break the rules after just a few days?" Chen Baxian immediately started to provoke trouble.

"This is not something I can decide, so after thinking it over, I decided to have a frank talk with the ship owner." Yang Zhong was not annoyed and continued to speak slowly.

"Which one specifically?" Ren Yuan asked.

"Article 2."

"So, you are looking for me in real life?" Ren Yuan's pupils shrank.

"Yes, I am following orders to hunt you down." Yang Zhong nodded.

"Damn it, are you a lackey of the imperial court?!" Chen Baxian subconsciously wanted to pull out his Panlong stick, but he touched nothing, then he remembered that this was a dream.

"I have never lied to you. When I first got on board, I told you that I was an officer and soldier." Yang Zhong said in a deep voice.

"Because why?" Ren Yuan also asked in a deep voice.

"The case of the robbery of the tomb of Donghunhou." Yang Zhong replied: "I am the ghostwriter of the Gouchen Division. I have left Changxing with my superior and am on the way to Qiantang."
