Li Xiuping was a little confused, why did he become a nosy person? Of those things that happened before, which one didn't come to him on his own initiative? Even the incident at Puyun Mountain was due to the incident involving the Bixiao Sect first.
To take a step back, even if there is no matter about the Bixiao Sect, Puyunshan has colluded with the demons, and as the junior uncle of Guanchao Academy, he can't pretend not to see it when he encounters it, right?
The fact that the other party is so worried about being touched by him proves at least two points.
First, the other party knew that he would go to Tianchan Temple in the next few days; second, the other party's plan was not just about the order of offering incense in Tianchan Temple, but it might even have something to do with the demons.
Li Xiuping found a seat next door and sat down, intending to hear what these people were plotting.
Only one of them said: "This matter is not a big deal. Even if he really encounters it, he might not intervene, right?"
Another person said: "It's hard to say. After all, this matter is quite involved."
One person patted the table and said in a deep voice: "I don't understand. Brother Yang just came into contact with the secrets of the demon clan. How could he become a heinous person? Even the abbot of your Tianchan Temple came forward personally."
The monk said: "Donor Guo, please be patient. Whether this matter is big or small is not small. The key is to determine how to determine it."
The man named Guo said coldly: "It's just money."
The monk smiled and said: "Money can make all the difference. As long as you give enough money, this matter will be easily solved. It's not that the monk is greedy, but this matter needs to be managed from top to bottom, and money is needed everywhere."
Someone sneered: "Are you Zhikong short of money? Don't think I don't know. You have made a lot of money from these pilgrims over the years."
The monk said: "Because of this, it is even more important to make plans for the future. You all know that once the things that the young monk has done are exposed, it will be difficult to save even the young monk's life."
One person said in a deep voice: "I guess this monk has no intention of helping us. Regarding the rescue of Brother Yang, I'm afraid we have to make other plans."
The monk was not in a hurry and said with a smile: "Other than the young monk, who else can intervene in this matter? Except for me, a pilgrim, no one in the entire Tianchan Temple can freely enter and leave the Tianchan Temple, let alone contact you. friend."
He continued: "I advise you to make a decision early. Now that there are so many pilgrims, Tianchan Temple has put your friend aside. Once this day passes, under the intimidation of the abbot and the elders, your friend may be It’s hard to persist, and by then the matter will be finalized, and even if your friend doesn’t die, he will probably become a useless person in the future.”
"Every donor knows very well that the current invasion of demons is a sensitive period. Anyone involved with demons will become a thorn in the eyes of human monks. Although Tianchan Temple has no contact with the practice world, it is an authentic Buddhist sect after all. They have always been repulsive to monsters and demons. Although your friend has not had real contact with the demons, it is a fact that he has practiced the secrets of the demons, and this cannot be changed no matter what. Of course, the abbot and the elders have not yet With enough time to verify, there is naturally room for relaxation. We only need to replace him with someone who has not been exposed to the secrets of the demon clan before that. When the abbot and the elders investigate, they will feel that the matter is a misunderstanding. Not only will there be no What a danger, because of Tianchan Temple’s fault, you may still be able to get compensation.”
He paused for a while and said: "So all the donors will not lose money if they ask the young monk for help and meet the young monk's request."
The man who slapped the table earlier asked: "How much do you want?"
"Five hundred spirit stones." Zhikong answered.
As soon as these words came out, the next door suddenly became quiet. After a while, the man who slapped the table said coldly: "You really dare to speak. Five hundred spirit stones may not be anything to you Zhikong, but to the rest of us, , it’s simply fatal.”
Zhikong smiled and said: "Don't think that the young monk doesn't know that several donors brought out a lot of good things from the demon ruins. Five hundred spirit stones are nothing."
One person said bitterly: "Master also said before that now is the critical period. Those are the secret treasures of the demon clan and cannot be dealt with at all. We don't dare to show them to others easily. If the master has a way, we can use those secret treasures as weapons." mortgage."
Zhikong waved his hand and said: "I only want the spirit stones. If the donors can give me the amount that the monk needs, tonight the monk will take the donors up the mountain to help your friend steal and replace the pillars. If you are reluctant to part with these spiritual stones, just think that the monk has no money tonight." came."
After hearing this, Li Xiuping finally understood what was going on.
Obviously, this group of people came across the ruins of a demon clan by chance and got a lot of things from it. The man named Yang should have practiced the secret method of the demon clan and was noticed by Tianchan Temple for some reason. Therefore, Brought to Tianzen Temple.
Because Tianchan Temple is now crowded with pilgrims, this matter has been put on hold for the time being. This group of people obviously knew Zhikong, and they must have had many contacts before, so they approached him for help, so they discussed the idea of stealing a beam and replacing it with a pillar. Monk Zhikong was obviously absolutely sure of the method, how to operate it, and whether the eminent monks of Tianchan Temple would notice it.
Li Xiuping didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, but since it involved ruins, and they were demon ruins, Li Xiuping became interested.
In the demon ruins, it is natural to find some information related to the demons. In addition, after the transformation of the previous demonic energy, these so-called demon ruins may be of great benefit to his cultivation.
His current physical condition makes it impossible for him to practice normally. If he wants to improve his realm, he has to find another way. Since refining demonic energy can improve his cultivation without any side effects or any potential dangers, then this can be done. Of.
Furthermore, what Monk Zhikong did really made Li Xiuping a little disgusted.
It's okay to be greedy for money, but at this time, adding insult to injury and taking advantage of someone's situation is a bit too much.
With an idea in mind, Li Xiuping stood up and walked towards the table, saying at the same time: "This master doesn't want to help you, so I might be able to do it for you, and I don't need a spiritual stone. As long as the matter is completed, All you can do is inform the ruins."
When such a person suddenly arrived, everyone immediately turned their attention to Li Xiuping and frowned.
Monk Zhikong obviously recognized Li Xiuping, not because he recognized Li Xiuping's identity, but because he had seen this young man when he entered before.
Although Li Xiuping is very famous now, not many people have actually met Li Xiuping, and it is impossible for these people to recognize him at once. Furthermore, even if Li Xiuping now says that he is Li Xiuping, these people may not recognize him. Will definitely believe it.
After all, legends like Li Xiuping are still too far away from them. It is difficult for them to believe that people like Li Xiuping will meet with them.
People actually live in different worlds. Even if they meet people from different worlds, they won't have much intersection. Even if there is an intersection, it will feel unreal. Therefore, no matter how much these people think, they cannot imagine the true identity of this young man, so naturally no one will believe what this young man says.
That's Tianchan Temple, and this matter has a huge involvement with the demons. It's not just someone who can show up and help.
Perhaps it was because of this mentality that Monk Zhikong seemed extremely confident. He just glanced at Li Xiuping and stopped paying any more attention. The men looked at this young man who suddenly appeared, their thoughts changing rapidly.
Of course, they didn't believe that this young man could help, because except for the monks of Tianchan Temple, outsiders couldn't get involved in this matter. Even the heads of the big sects were afraid that they couldn't do it, and they were even said to have no idea. Young people appear out of nowhere.
But there was probably no other way, or maybe he really didn’t like what Monk Zhikong did, so he treated the dead horse as a living horse doctor. The man who slapped the table before asked: "You said you can help if you can? We can help." Why should I believe you?"
Li Xiuping walked straight up and said with a smile: "It's very simple, because no matter what I say is true or not, you have nothing to lose."
Having said this, he glanced at the monk Zhikong and said with a smile: "This matter related to the demon clan is more serious than you think. Since your friend has practiced the secret method of the demon clan, I am afraid that this matter is not for him to be a pilgrim." People can solve it. If it is true as he said, you hand over the spirit stone, but he cannot solve this matter, but takes the spirit stone and flies away, who will you talk to when the time comes?"
Being said like this, no matter how confident Monk Zhikong was, he couldn't sit still at this moment. He narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "This donor is really loud. I would like to hear how the donor plans to help them?" "
Li Xiuping said with a smile: "It's very simple. I'll go talk to the abbot of Tianchan Temple and explain the misunderstanding clearly. Then let the abbot of Tianchan Temple discuss how to deal with the secret method of the demons, and it will be solved naturally."
As soon as these words came out, not only the monk Zhikong burst into laughter, but the men also shook their heads secretly.
There is a person in love who only talks big words.
"Can you ask the abbot to explain it clearly? Who do you think you are, Li Xiuping, the junior uncle of Guanchao Academy?" Monk Zhikong stopped laughing, spoke calmly, and then said to the men: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, you guys Time is running out. If we don’t make a decision, the young monk will go back. As for the method proposed by this donor... do you believe it? "
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "I didn't expect that the master's cultivation level is not high, but his eyesight is good. He can actually tell the identity of me at a glance. I admire you!"
Everyone frowned again, obviously not thinking about it for a while.
Monk Zhikong stood up from his seat, looked at Li Xiuping in disbelief, and asked cautiously: "Are you really Li Xiuping?"
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "If it's true, didn't the master say before that I would go to Tianchan Temple in the next two days?"
As he spoke, he took out an object, which was the object given by the eminent monk of Tianchan Temple. He smiled and said, "Master, you won't recognize this thing, right?"
Seeing the thing in Li Xiuping's hand, Monk Zhikong looked incredulous, and then he collapsed on the chair, his face pale...
