The chivalrous spirit is fickle

The next moment, black demonic energy surged, wrapping up the golden light, like a mud cow entering the sea, without any sound. In the demonic energy, the monk slowly raised his eyes, looked coldly at Xiaojiu, and said in a deep voice.
"I thought I was cautious enough. How did you find out?"
Xiaojiu's eyes moved slightly, the Buddha's light behind him became brighter, and she opened her cherry lips and spoke lightly.
"I know a man who is lustful but not a coward, who loves life but is not afraid of death."
"He is an idle person. Wherever he goes, he always likes to collect some local customs and stories. Many years ago, he came to Huiyin City once."
"At that time, there was no Zongming Mansion in Huiyin City, let alone zombies. It was just that after listening to the story of Monk Huiyin, he was awed and came here to burn a stick of incense."
"Many years later, he fought with the demon several times. In his dreams and in the soul world, he finally saw the demon's face. Although the demon's appearance was not similar to Monk Huiyin, there were some traces that could not be concealed."
"Although he only had some doubts, he still felt uneasy. After all, it was just a Buddha statue, so if he chopped it, it would be fine. At most, he would be scolded by the monks."
"Monk, you may have never thought that there are people who can survive after seeing the great demon."
Xiaojiu moved his arm, stepped forward, and spoke in a cold voice.
"After destroying the Great Demon's Golden Body, I want to see how much demon essence he will have when he is resurrected."
Upon hearing this, the monk sneered, with demonic energy running rampant. He flipped his hand, strode forward, and spoke loudly.
"A mere girl of the early ninth rank dares to speak so arrogantly. Today I will..."
The monk's voice suddenly stopped, and a piece of blue blade pierced through his back and into his chest. He turned back in shock, only to see Shi Gu sticking to his back, pushing his palm forward, pushing the long knife towards his flesh.
"mean…"
The monk let out a low cry, and before he could curse more, his entire body was lifted up by the long sword and hung in the air. Shi Gu moved his palm, and the sword flashed up and down, cutting the monk's body in two.
At the same time, Shi Gu stepped forward and chopped off the monk's head, making the monk die without dying.
Xiao Jiu walked over slowly, took a look at the monk's mutilated body, and couldn't help but say.
"He doesn't look that powerful, is it necessary to launch a sneak attack?"
Shi Gu reached out to wipe the knife, wiped the blood off the knife with two fingers, and said righteously.
"Since you can sneak attack, why not sneak attack?"
There is a long-standing saying in the martial arts world: Don't challenge Qingcheng Shigu to a fight, because this bastard has no martial ethics.
In the Buddhist temple, there stands a huge Buddha with a gentle face and a smile on his face.
Shi Gu wiped the blood off the knife, turned around and walked towards the Buddhist temple in the temple, then chopped with the knife. With a flash of straight knife light, the golden Buddha statue in the hall was cut in two.
Chapter 94: Golden Buddha Statue (II)
The golden light was dazzling, and the big Buddha was smiling with his fingers clenched, but under the light of the knife, it collapsed with a loud bang. It was obviously just a flash of knife, but the huge golden Buddha was cut into countless cubes in an instant and slid all over the ground.
The golden block slid to Shigu's feet. He looked down at it, feeling a little regretful. Then he raised his hand and thrust the long knife into the ground.
The moment the blade entered the ground, a flame started burning from the bottom, its color like snow, spreading towards the gold nuggets on the ground.
Under the blood-red flame, the gold block did not melt into golden liquid, but was corroded and stained with a touch of scarlet. It seemed that its interior began to collapse and twitch, and it turned into strange-looking blood clots.
"It's a shame to waste so much gold."
Shi Gu sighed with some pain, these gold nuggets were part of the zombie's golden body, none of them could be left behind, otherwise when the zombie was resurrected, he could use the golden body to lead him and gain hundreds of years of worship from Huiyin Temple.
Xiaojiu stood outside the hall, looking at the blood-red flames burning on the ground, frowned slightly, and asked.
"Great demon... can it also eat incense?"
Shi Gu nodded and explained.
"Of course it is possible. It is better to say that the first person who discovered the magical effect of incense and faith was an ancient demon."
Xiaojiu's eyes lit up slightly, and he looked at Shigu's back and asked with a smile.
"These things are not written in books. Where did you hear them?"
Upon hearing this, Shi Gu pursed his lips slightly, but said nothing and pointed to the sky.
Xiaojiu looked up subconsciously, but only saw dark clouds covering the moon, and no stars were visible in the sky.
Half an hour later, the blood and fire burned out, and there was no trace of the golden Buddha statue in the temple. Shigu and Xiaojiu closed the temple door and turned to leave.
But before he had walked far, Shigu stopped and looked back at the ancient temple, his eyes slightly flickering.
Seeing this, Xiaojiu asked.
"what happened?"
Shi Gu frowned slightly and spoke in a low voice.
"It seems to be going a little too smoothly, and I feel like something is wrong."
There used to be quite a few monks in Huiyin Temple. However, when the bones were excavated for investigation, the bodies of the monks were found in a large pit. There were no signs of being bitten by zombies, and they were deader than dead.
It was Kangxi's senior brother who killed these monks personally, but Shigu couldn't understand why he killed these monks.
……
In Huiyin City, a middle-aged man stepped over the bluestone and walked slowly along the long street.
At this time, there were many pedestrians on the street and the noise was deafening. The middle-aged man walked on the street, but it seemed that no one could see him. People coming towards him would pass directly through his body, like a formless wandering ghost.
The middle-aged man was dressed in white and holding a golden Buddha in his hands. While walking, he suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of Huiyin Temple.
His eyes were pitch black, but he could see the burning Huiyin Temple across half of Huiyin City.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man lowered his head slightly, looked at the golden Buddha in his hand, and spoke softly.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
As soon as he finished speaking, the small golden Buddha slowly opened its eyes. A golden Buddha statue actually had a pair of dark eyes, which looked a bit weird and a bit incongruous.
The golden Buddha looked at the middle-aged man and spoke slowly.
"Since you want to help me, why don't you just kill that man and leave me this small golden statue? I'm afraid the seven hundred years of incense would be a waste."
The middle-aged man smiled slightly when he heard this. He turned his head to look at the crowd and said lightly.
"I don't want to offend the heavens unless it's necessary."
"You died too early, and you don't know the weight of the four words 'Tribulation of the Heavens'. Even though his realm has fallen, I still regard him as the Heavens."
The golden Buddha sneered, his dark eyes filled with brutality.
"If you don't kill him, I will kill you after I am resurrected."
The middle-aged man lowered his brows, looked at the golden Buddha in his hand, and said with a frown.
"It's better to say less threats. I helped you after all. Don't you want to return the favor?"
The Golden Buddha looked mockingly and spoke slowly.
"You helped me, but it was because of people like you that I was forced to become a great demon."
"Isn't it?"
After thinking for a moment, the middle-aged man smiled calmly. He held up the golden Buddha in one hand and said with a smile.
"You are right."
After saying that, the middle-aged man threw his hand lightly, and the golden Buddha in his hand suddenly rose up, turned into a golden light, passed through the streets and alleys, and finally fell into a well.
It was an old well, seemingly older than Huiyin City, and the water in the well was sweeter than that in other wells.
The golden Buddha fell into the well and sank slowly all the way to the bottom. The moonlight could no longer be seen, and even the mouth of the well had become a tiny pinhole.
The middle-aged man slowly closed his eyes and asked.
"Is a city enough to eat?"
The golden Buddha sank into the mud and sand at the bottom of the well, but opened his mouth and spoke lightly.
"A thousand miles around, all are food for blood."
"That's enough to eat."
The middle-aged man got the answer he wanted, squinted his eyes and smiled, turned and left, took a step forward, and arrived at the top of a mountain thousands of miles away.
The mountain top was covered with snow and the wind was as cold as a knife. A middle-aged man sat cross-legged on the mountain top. He slowly spread out a blank book and placed it in front of his knees. Then he stared at Huiyin City thousands of miles away and murmured in a low voice.
"Eat more, Mo Shen."
"It's best to eat that Zhutian cleanly as well."
……
Late at night, the lights in Xuanmingsi's restaurant were still on.
There were figures everywhere in the building, and the smell of wine was in the air. This dinner party hosted by Xuanmingsi was a great success for both the host and the guests.
Nanmian and his two companions were always outgoing and friendly. After a few drinks, they became close friends with the disciples of Xuanming Division and were almost on the verge of becoming sworn brothers.
When Shi Gu and Xiao Jiu returned to the restaurant, it was already in a mess. Su Xue was sitting on the second floor, cross-legged and breathing, and it seemed that she had not touched any wine. However, Shen Yue was eating with relish and enjoying it very much.
When someone toasted her, Shen Yue accepted it all and drank very generously, treating the wine as water, but there was no sign of drunkenness on her face.
After getting several Xuanmingsi disciples drunk, no one came to toast Shen Yue anymore.
Shi Gu returned to the table and just as he sat down, he was grabbed by Su Xun and forced to drink several glasses of wine.
Xiaojiu was half a monk. He didn't like drinking alcohol or eating meat. He just sat quietly at the table, looking at Shigu with his eyes, which made Shigu feel uneasy and weak.
For some reason, Zou Si from the East Sea Sword Sect, who was rescued, also mixed in with the table on the second floor. He didn't say a word, but just frowned and snatched the dog meat on the table with Shen Yue.
"Is it resolved?"
Su Xun poured a glass of wine, lowered his voice, and asked Shi Gu softly.
Upon hearing this, Shi Gu frowned, sighed, and said.
"I'm not sure. I clearly burned the golden Buddha statue, but I feel a little scared."
Su Xun had never seen the great devil come to the world. During the battle to kill the Blood Demon, he was locked in the sect by the elders of the sect. They said that the elders could die, but the sect master could not die.
As a result, Su Xun missed the grand event of besieging and killing the Blood Demon. However, among those who besieged and killed the Blood Demon, only Shi Gu survived.
Su Xun picked up a piece of dog meat, put it in his mouth, and asked vaguely about Kang Xi. He still couldn't understand why Kang Xi was killed by Shi Gu so quickly.
Shi Gu did not hide anything, nor did he care whether there were outsiders around. In front of everyone, he told everyone everything about the Great Demon in the West.
During this period, Zou Si put down the dog meat in her hand, and after Shi Gu finished speaking, she repeated to everyone the story she had heard from Kang Xi.
When the two finished speaking, everyone fell into silence. Some were sympathetic, some were angry, and some were confused.
The upright and awe-inspiring Tailbone Dao from a hundred years ago, the Kang Xi who was written into the story, turned out to be such a pitiful person.
Just because of the devil's thoughts, Kang Xi lost his master, the master he regarded as his biological father, and even lost Xiao Man, who was arranged by the devil.
"The Great Demon... Is it true that no one can escape the fate arranged by the Great Demon?"
Shen Yue bit her lip lightly and asked angrily.
Shi Gu took a sip of the wine, and it tasted tasteless, just spicy. He smiled and said helplessly.
"If I must say, there was once a scholar in the Great Zhou who had achieved some success in his cultivation. When he stepped onto the snowy plains, he turned around and left at the first sight of Xiao Man. He left with great determination and never looked back at Xiao Man again."
Hearing this, Su Xue asked.
"Why, is that scholar very skilled?"
Shi Gu shook his head slightly and said.
"Average, not as good as Kang Xi back then."
"It's just that the scholar is already married. When he saw Xiao Man for the first time, he fell deeply in love with her, but he remembered his first wife."
"His wife came from a poor family and was not very good-looking, but she married him when he was in the most difficult time."
"After that, the scholar's wife worked hard all day to supplement the family income, and she also saved money to buy a few books for the scholar."
"But this made the woman, who was not very good-looking to begin with, even darker and uglier."
"Later, when the scholar became successful, many people began to say that the ugly woman was not worthy of the handsome scholar."
"Some people also say that the scholar has a beautiful concubine outside."
"The scholar has read books and is somewhat arrogant. He never explains anything. He just thinks that the clear is clear and the turbid is turbid."
"I still think that after living with my wife for many years, she should know what kind of person he is and will definitely not believe those words."
