Film & TV: Public Enemy of Justice

"Let's go back and have a good drink. We won't leave until we're drunk tonight. After we finish drinking, we'll rest well for a day. Tomorrow, we'll head straight to the borderlands and see how Brother Qiao Feng is doing, Master."

Lin Yaoxie thought about it and decided that it was a good idea to go outside and see how Qiao Feng was doing.

So the group went back to the restaurant, sat down, and asked the waiter to bring them a few jars of wine. They then sat there and began to drink heartily.

At this time, Xu Zhu was no longer a monk and could drink with them. Xu Zhu now enjoyed eating meat and drinking wine in large quantities, just like them, and felt particularly happy.

So Ye Erniang watched her son chatting and laughing with his friends, feeling very happy.

She was also very gratified. Ye Erniang thought to herself, how wonderful it would have been if she had met her son earlier. She had missed more than 20 years of her son's life. From now on, she would be involved in every major event in her son's life.

0..oo Requesting flowers.

She would never miss a single moment of her son's life again, and she would live happily with him in Western Xia from now on.

Then Lin Yaoxie and his companions each had a wine bowl in front of them. After filling their bowls, they clinked them together and drank them all in one gulp.

They drank an unknown amount of alcohol that night, chatting and laughing about all sorts of happy things until the restaurant was packed with people. Only then did they happily return to their rooms upstairs and go to sleep.

They slept quite late. When Lin Yaoxie woke up, rubbing his head, he didn't even know what time it was. When he saw the time outside, he realized he had slept until late morning, so he rubbed his eyes and came out of the room.

Just then, Duan Yu pushed open the door and came out in the same state as him. Duan Yu quickly came over and asked, "Master, you just woke up too? I thought you had woken up a long time ago." Lin Yaoxie stretched and said, "I haven't slept well these past few days, and I've been anxious and stressed. Now that You Tanzhi's poison has been cured, I'm relieved."

Chapter 204 Let's Go to the Frontier to See Qiao Feng

"I just fell asleep like that, and I didn't expect to sleep until the sun was high in the sky. I wonder if Xu Zhu and his mother are awake yet?"

At this moment, someone at a table downstairs from Duan Yuzi said, "Master, look, Xu Zhu and his mother have woken up. They're sitting downstairs drinking tea."

At this moment, Xu Zhu and his mother also looked up and looked this way, just in time to see the two of them looking down.

So Xu Zhu happily waved to him, meaning "437" to let him go down to eat.

So Lin Yaoxie and his companion went down there.

Duan Yu hurriedly told the waiter to prepare breakfast for them—or rather, lunch.

After Duan Yu ordered a few dishes, Lin Yaoxie said to the waiter, "Give me a bowl of noodles. My stomach hurts a little, and I want to eat some noodles to soothe it. I don't want to eat rice or anything greasy."

So Duan Yu ordered the waiter, "Give my master a large bowl of beef noodles."

The waiter hurried off to prepare the food, realizing that these people were not to be trifled with.

Yesterday, he secretly peeked through the door and saw those arrogant people run away like mice seeing a cat when they saw this person in white.

So the waiter assumed that Lin Yaoxie must be some kind of martial arts master or someone of high status.

Therefore, he didn't dare to provoke Lin Yaoxie and his group at all, fearing that they might become dissatisfied and smash up their shop.

In fact, Lin Yaoxie and his group didn't do anything at all; it was just that Ding Chunqiu was completely subdued by Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie's kung fu had completely drained his internal energy, so when he saw Lin Yaoxie, he was naturally afraid. He was afraid that Lin Yaoxie would kill him with one palm.

Because he was now no different from a cripple, the waiter and his companions witnessed this scene.

Soon the waiter brought over all the food, including the beef noodles Lin Yaoxie had ordered, and respectfully said to Lin Yaoxie and his companions, "Gentlemen, please enjoy your meal."

Only then did Lin Yaoxie dare to turn and leave. He noticed the waiter's attitude was completely different from when he first arrived yesterday, but he ignored him. After all, they would be leaving soon after finishing their meal and resting for a while.

Lin Yaoxie ate his bowl of very fragrant beef noodles while discussing things with the others.

Lin Yaoxie said, "Now that we've removed the poison from Brother You Tanzhi, let's go to the frontier and see how Qiao Feng is doing."

Only then did they realize why You Tanzhi hadn't come out.

Just as they were about to go upstairs to take a look, You Tanzhi unexpectedly came downstairs lazily as well.

They had almost forgotten about You Tanzhi; they hadn't expected him to be asleep until this late.

So You Tanzhi sat down and said to them, "I'm really sorry, I feel extremely tired after being detoxified, and I've been sleeping until now. I've kept you waiting for 5.5."

Lin asked with a wicked smile, "How are you feeling now? Is there anything else that's bothering you?"

You Tanzhi said, "I'm sorry to have worried you, Brother Lin Yaoxie. I'm fine now, so please don't worry."

Lin Yaoxie said to You Tanzhi, "We're planning to go to the borderlands to see Qiao Feng. Are you coming with us? I know about your past grievances with him, but I didn't know. You Tanzhi, what are you thinking now?"

Chapter 205 You Tanzhi Retires from the Martial World

So You Tanzhi thought for a moment and said to Lin Yaoxie, "In that case, I won't go with you. After all, although Qiao Feng didn't kill my father and uncles with his own hands, he indirectly caused their deaths."

“Every time I see Qiao Feng, I feel a knot in my heart. Since that’s the case, I won’t spoil your fun. I’m planning to find a place to retire from the martial world and never have to care about anything else.”

"After this meal, we'll say goodbye. We'll meet again someday, as long as the mountains and rivers remain green."

"Once I've settled in, I'll send you a letter, Brother Lin Yaoxie, inviting you to my new place. How about that?"

Lin Yao smiled wickedly at You Tanzhi and said, "That's great! I'll come to your house as a guest then, and you'd better treat me well."

You Tanzhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, Brother You Tanzhi Lin Yaoxie, I will definitely let you know to come visit me as soon as I'm settled."

"I also promised you, Brother Lin Yaoxie, that I would show off my cooking skills. Xu Zhu and Duan Yu, you can come along too, I will definitely treat you well."

At this moment, Lin Yaoxie remembered something and asked, "You Tanzhi, since you want to go out and settle down, do you have enough money for your journey? How much money do you have? Is it enough for you?"

You Tanzhi smiled and said to Lin Yaoxie, "Don't worry, Brother Lin Yaoxie. After I sold some things from our Juxian Manor, I still have a lot of the silver you gave me back then. When I was in the Beggars' Sect, even though I was the puppet leader, I didn't spend any money on food and drink, so I didn't spend much money."

"So now I have enough money to find a quiet place and live a good life," Lin Yaoxie asked You Tanzhi. "Is there anywhere you want to go?"

You Tanzhi thought for a moment and said, "Since I want to retire from the martial world, I should naturally find a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, free from strife."

Lin Yaoxie suddenly remembered that the Song and Liao dynasties might go to war soon, so You Tanzhi advised him: "You can go anywhere, but try not to go to the border between the Song and Liao dynasties, because it may not be safe there. Listen to me and find a relatively remote place, away from these things, and away from the war that may happen in the future."

After hearing Lin Yaoxie's words, You Tanzhi felt that Lin Yaoxie was indeed thinking of him very much, so he nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, Brother Lin Yaoxie, I've remembered everything you said, and I'll listen to you from now on."

So Lin Yaoxie said, "Eat quickly, or the food will get cold."

So Lin Yao quickly finished his large bowl of beef noodles and sat there very comfortably, saying, "After drinking, eating a bowl of noodles like this is so satisfying. Now that we're full, we'll get going."

At this moment, You Tanzhi still felt a little reluctant to part with them, so he said to them with great sadness, "You must live your lives well in the future. I will pray for you, pray that you good people will live a peaceful life. You have all treated me with such sincerity. I consider you good friends. If you need anything in the future, feel free to come to me. We shall part ways here."

"You must be waiting for my letter. If I can't find you, I will send the letter to Duan Yu at the Prince's Mansion in Dali, and have Duan Yu pass it on to Brother Lin Yaoxie. Is that alright?"

Chapter 206 Murong Fu's Father Is Not Dead

Lin Yaoxie nodded and said, "Sure, I'm usually with my apprentice. If you can find Duan Yu, you can find me too, don't worry."

Duan Yu said from the side, "Don't worry, Brother You Tanzhi. I'll make arrangements with the people in the Prince's Mansion. As long as there's a letter from you, I'll make sure it's delivered to me as soon as possible, no matter where I am. Then my second brother, my master, and I will go to see you together."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, You Tanzhi bid them farewell and left.

Lin Yaoxie and the others planned to head straight to the border region to see Qiao Feng. They figured Qiao Feng had probably already met with his father by now, and they wanted to see how he was doing.

Lin Yaoxie did not tell Duan Yu about this, and neither Duan Yu nor Xu Zhu knew that the man in black was Qiao Feng's father.

At this moment, Duan Yu came over and said to Lin Yaoxie, "Master, let's go. Let's set off as soon as possible to see my elder brother and see how he is."

Xu Zhu was also very happy to think that he hadn't seen Qiao Feng for so long and missed him very much. The group of them hurried on their horses and headed towards the border region.

When they arrived at the entrance of a Shaolin Temple, they suddenly spotted several familiar faces arguing noisily.

When they walked over, they found that these people were none other than Kumārajīva and Murong Fu, with a man in black standing beside them, his face covered. They were arguing about something.

The masked man finally removed his mask, revealing his true face. Murong Fu was utterly dumbfounded by the man and then called him "father."

It was only then that Lin Yaoxie remembered that this person was indeed Murong Fu's father, who had been secretly protecting him all along.

It turns out that this person had been hiding his identity and had been living in the Shaolin Temple all along. Meanwhile, Kumārajīva was trying to get close to Murong Fu's father, saying, "Mr. Murong, I have been thinking of you all these years. It feels like a lifetime has passed since we last met."

Murong Fu's father said to Kumārajīva, "It is truly fate that we have met you, Master, over the years. I wonder how you have been all these years?"

But Kumārajīva said to Murong Fu's father, "For years I've been searching for the manual of the Six Meridians Divine Sword of Dali, but it was burned by the Shaolin Temple monks."

"It's still unfinished; I've been hoping to find a sword manual for you, sir."

At this moment, when the Six Meridians Divine Sword of Dali was mentioned, Lin Yaoxie and Duan Yu looked at each other and then remembered the time when Kumārajīva wanted to capture Duan Yu and burn him at the grave of Murong Fu's father.

Duan Yu and Lin Yaoxie were both furious. They decided to secretly listen to what the two of them were talking about.

At this moment, Murong Fu looked at his father with great curiosity and asked him, "Father, where have you been all these years? I thought you had already passed away, but I didn't expect you to still be alive."

Murong Fu's father said, "For so many years I have been hiding in the Shaolin Temple's library, studying Shaolin martial arts, hoping that one day I could help you restore the Great Yan and do my part."

Chapter 207 The Mysterious Master, the Sweeping Monk

At this moment, Kumārajīva said to Murong Fu's father, "Since you have such connections, why don't you tell me? If I can help you, I will do my best to help you."

When Murong Fu and his son heard that Kumārajīva wanted to help them revive, they started discussing it together. After a while, they burst into laughter.

Lin Yaoxie and the others thought to themselves, these people must be thinking of some bad idea, otherwise why are they laughing there?

At that moment, a very strange figure appeared at the entrance of Shaolin Temple. The figure flashed to their side very quickly.

Before those people could even notice, Lin Yaoxie, Duan Yu, and the others watched in astonishment as that person appeared like a ghost next to Murong Fu and the other two.

Then he said to Murong Fu and the others, "Benefactor Murong, you've been staying in our Shaolin Temple's Sutra Repository for so many years, what are you planning to do now?"

"And this Master Kumārajīva, you have studied so many martial arts in this library for so many years, yet you still want to be an enemy of the Central Plains martial arts world. You are utterly depraved."

Upon hearing this, Kumārajīva immediately retorted, "When did I ever go to the Shaolin Temple's Sutra Repository? I've never been there!"

The old monk with white hair was holding a broom. Lin Yaoxie glanced at it and suddenly remembered.

In the novel and TV series "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", there is a very powerful character, namely the sweeping monk who has been hiding in the Sutra Pavilion. Could this be the very powerful sweeping monk?

Then the old monk, holding his broom, said to Kumārajīva, "When this benefactor Murong came here, you secretly learned the Vajra Palm. With your intelligence and hard work, you have brought this martial art to its peak. You can be considered a very talented person."

“But I knew you had gone astray, so I deliberately placed a copy of the Aeff Sutra next to that book of Jing Shu, hoping you would read it carefully and see if you would sink deeper into evil. I could only place this sutra there in the hope that you could understand the Buddha’s teachings and resolve your evil spirits, but unfortunately you ignored it.”

“This Great Wheel King Kumārajīva, you are even more greedy than that Benefactor Murong. You actually memorized all seventy-two Shaolin arts and then slowly learned them. However, you were too eager to succeed and used the Taoist Lesser Formless Skill to activate the Shaolin techniques, and you even reversed the order.”

"It appears to be incredibly powerful, but in reality, it is extremely dangerous. You have already damaged your internal organs. You are in grave danger, and death is just around the corner."

At this point, Kumārajīva had already lost his composure after being talked about by the old monk, and was still trying to argue, "What calamity is imminent? You old monk are talking nonsense. I have never been to the Sutra Repository of your Shaolin Temple."

The sweeping monk quickly continued, "Do you know why, since the founding of Shaolin Temple, only Bodhidharma has been able to master all seventy-two Shaolin arts? Do you know why?"

At this moment, Kumārajīva was also there, dumbfounded, and asked the old monk, "Why is that?"

Chapter 208 The Sweeping Monk Reveals the Secret

"The temple has seventy-two deadly techniques, each of which is enough to kill a person. Each technique must be countered with the corresponding Buddhist teachings. Only the most learned monks, with the highest level of Buddhist teachings and the strongest sense of compassion, can practice more of these techniques."

"Otherwise, the more you practice, the more serious the internal injuries will become, and sooner or later it will lead to qi deviation."

Kumārajīva said, "Master, you must be afraid that the Shaolin Temple's secret techniques will be leaked, so you are making alarmist remarks here to discourage people from trying to learn them."

The sweeping monk said, "Great Wheel King requests that you deliver the Yi Jin Jing to this temple."
