Water Margin: My 108 Heroes Come from All Heavens

After a while.

Bai Suzhen raised her head and murmured softly, "So... I've been misunderstanding Fahai all along."

"Zen Master Fahai has never blamed you."

Liang Shan quickly comforted him, saying, "He has been waiting for you at Bao'en Temple these past few days to seek revenge. He said he would rather be beaten to death by you than see you sad and heartbroken."

"He...he...he..."

Bai Suzhen trembled, never expecting that Fahai was so deeply in love with her.

"Then...then isn't my brother-in-law...a fake?"

Xiaoqing scratched her head and couldn't help but mutter to herself.

"It's not just a counterfeit."

Liang Shan glanced at the two of them and pressed his advantage: "He's a scumbag!"

"Scumbag?"

The two looked up, both somewhat taken aback.

"good."

Liang Shan nodded and said, "After he learned that you were snake demons, he secretly approached Fahai many times, asking Fahai to come and subdue the demons."

"What?!"

Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing stared wide-eyed.

Especially Bai Suzhen.

She stared in disbelief at Xu Xian's corpse lying on the ground, and took several steps back.

Ever since that incident during the Dragon Boat Festival.

Xu Xian...

I've always slept in a separate room from myself.

She said she was worried about affecting the baby in her womb.

Think about it now.

Own……

It seems I really entrusted the wrong person.

He wasn't worried about affecting the baby in his belly; he was afraid he'd eat him in the middle of the night!

"etc!"

Now it was Liangshan's turn to be dumbfounded.

He watched Bai Suzhen stroking her belly and subconsciously swallowed.

Not really.

Bai Suzhen is pregnant?!

"Take me to see Fahai."

Bai Suzhen stared at Liang Shan, her tone leaving no room for refusal.

Liang Shan was overjoyed.

But he feigned hesitation and said, "Miss Bai, Zen Master Fahai is... not in a good mood right now. Are you sure you want to see him now?"

"Sure."

Bai Suzhen nodded, a complex look flashing in her eyes.

"Then... what about the baby in your belly?"

Liang Shan swallowed hard and couldn't help but ask the most crucial question at the moment.

Widowed and raising a child.

He felt that even Dorgon couldn't handle it, so he figured Fahai couldn't either.

"How...how did you know?"

Bai Suzhen was somewhat surprised.

"Even a blind person could see through your movements."

Liang Shan's lips twitched a few times.

"Sister, are you really pregnant?!"

Xiaoqing's eyes widened, and she grabbed Bai Suzhen's hand, almost jumping up with excitement.

"Um."

Bai Suzhen nodded gently, her face glowing with maternal warmth: "It's been three months already."

"Three months?!"

Liang Shan's mind went blank.

This cannot be hidden.

If Fahai knew that Bai Suzhen was bringing Xu Xian's child to him to take over... he would probably beat himself to death, right?

"Miss Bai, perhaps... you should calm down first?"

Liang Shan felt a chill run down his spine and tried to stop the impending battle.

"I am very calm."

Bai Suzhen shook her head, her tone absolutely certain: "I want to see him, right now."

Liang Shan opened his mouth.

For a moment, I didn't know what to say.

He looked at Xiaoqing, hoping that this feisty girl could persuade her sister.

Little did anyone know that Xiaoqing was even more anxious than Bai Suzhen, and had already packed her bags.

He grabbed Bai Suzhen and said, "Sister, let's go! Let's find that bald monk... ugh, let's find Zen Master Fahai and make him take responsibility. He killed my brother-in-law, he has to compensate me with a new brother-in-law!"

"???"

Liang Shan was completely dumbfounded.

Sin ah.

It seems I've dug a huge hole for myself.

In order to avoid a chaotic scene.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Master Fahai is still a little shy, and Bao'en Temple is a pure Buddhist place, not suitable for women to visit. How about I arrange a time for you to meet at Dali Temple tomorrow to talk?"

"It was our oversight."

Bai Suzhen bowed gracefully and nodded, saying, "I will follow Lord Liang's arrangements."

Liang Shan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

Next.

We need to find a way to persuade Fahai.

If you want to get through life, everyone has their share of cuckoldry.

It's just taking over a business.

It's nothing serious.

……

Bao'en Temple.

Under the camphor tree in the backyard.

Fahai was drinking from a wine jar, while the three young monks were already completely drunk and lying haphazardly on the stone bench, snoring loudly.

"Achoo!"

Why do I suddenly have this ominous feeling?

Fahai sneezed, sensing that something big was about to happen.

As a Celestial Being.

He could vaguely sense some secrets about heaven that were related to him.

But this feeling.

Strangely enough, it wasn't that danger was approaching, but rather an indescribable feeling.

The secrets of heaven are revealed.

It seems someone... wants to introduce him to someone.

"Amitabha Buddha, what a sin!"

Fahai quickly chanted a Buddhist mantra to dispel this absurd thought.

He was a monk.

All things are empty.

How could you even have such a thought?!

"Big brother!"

Just then, Liang Shan burst into the backyard all by himself.

"Second brother, why are you back so soon?"

Fahai put down the wine jar and looked at him in surprise.

"Something terrible has happened!"

Liang Shan sat down in front of him, slapping his thigh as he spoke.

"What's the big deal?"

Fahai frowned.

"Bai Suzhen...she..."

Liang Shan hesitated, looking troubled.

"What's wrong with her? Is she here to seek revenge against me?"

Fahai stood up, rolled up his sleeves to reveal his strong arms, and roared with fighting spirit: "Bring it on! Do you think I'm afraid of her? Today I'll subdue her under the Pagoda of Gratitude!"

"It's not about revenge."

Liang Shan shook his head and sighed, "Bai Suzhen... is pregnant with Xu Xian's child."

"It's been three months already."

"What does this have to do with me?"

Fahai scratched his head, looking completely bewildered.

"Of course it's related!"

Liang Shan glanced at him and sneered, "You're the one who killed Xu Xian. Bai Suzhen's child is fatherless before it's even born. If you don't take responsibility, who will?"

"???"

Fahai was shocked and completely dumbfounded.

"Bai Suzhen is now a widow, pregnant, and utterly alone."

Liang Shan covered his forehead, his face full of sorrow and compassion: "Can you bear to let Bai Suzhen raise her child alone, wandering the streets, eating chaff and wild vegetables?"

Fahai opened his mouth.

I want to say I have to be heartless.

But seeing Liang Shan's "Are you even human?" expression, he swallowed his words back.

"etc!"

He suddenly realized: "Bai Suzhen is a thousand-year-old snake demon, how could she be in such a miserable state as you described?"

"What's wrong with the thousand-year-old snake demon?"

"Doesn't the son of a thousand-year-old snake demon need a father's love?"

Liang Shan stared directly at Fahai, his voice righteous and awe-inspiring as he questioned, "Furthermore, the child in Bai Suzhen's womb is Xu Xian's. You killed Xu Xian, so shouldn't you care about this child?"

"But I am a monk, my mind is pure and free from worldly desires, how can I concern myself with such trivial matters?"

Fahai blinked, looking bewildered, and said, "Besides, that child... isn't mine."
