Suddenly being locked by the eyes of two powerful stars, the black-robed woman was obviously startled. She raised her feet and slowly backed away. A thick black mist surged out from behind. She hid most of her body in the black mist. All she had to do was retreat again. With one small step, her entire body could be submerged into the black mist, giving the impression that this black mist could help her escape at any time.
"I don't mean to offend you, I would like to ask the two seniors to show your respect!" More than half of the black-robed woman's body disappeared into the black mist. She seemed to have confidence in her heart. She bowed to Zhang Tufu and Tianwu Daoist, and her words were sincere.
"Amitabha!" Monk Huixin suddenly clasped his hands together and proclaimed the Buddha's name. He stared at the woman in black robes with a serious expression and said, "The donor has committed a serious crime. Put down the butcher knife and turn around. The Buddhist scriptures in our temple are vast and can overcome all the troubles, pain, hatred and sins in the world. The donor If you are interested, you can come to my temple to chant sutras and worship Buddha——"
"Get out!" Niu Dawa's mouth twitched, he reached out and grabbed Monk Huixin's neck, and threw him out with a flick of his long arm.
"——" Zhang Xiaozhu and others couldn't laugh or cry.
When they heard Monk Huixin say that the woman in black robe was committing a serious crime, they all looked at the woman in black robe who was surrounded by black aura and felt horrified. They guessed that the woman in black robe might be a heinous female devil. But when they heard what Monk Huixin said behind them, they were all instantly confused. .
What is this guy doing?
Are you recruiting disciples for his monk temple?
But the person in front of me is a woman!
Isn't it crazy for a monk to abduct women from the temple?
Niu Dawa was especially angry because Monk Huixin said the same thing to him that day on the lake in Badshui Swamp. Only now did he realize that this was a cliché that Monk Huixin had come out of his mouth.
"Ah -" Monk Huixin screamed in the air, fidgeting with his limbs in panic while explaining eagerly: "Senior brother, the money for fragrant oil in the temple is getting less and less, Master Chou's hair has fallen out, and he ordered us to recruit more believers. . Ouch, you knocked me to death!"
Niu Dawa was stunned when he heard this and asked in surprise: "Does your master have hair?"
"No." Monk Huixin replied.
"Fuck!" Niu Dawa was furious and shouted: "Then you still said that your master's hair has fallen out?"
"Haha, senior brother, are you stupid? How can a monk have hair? I'm just making a metaphor. Can't you hear this?" Monk Huixin laughed happily and despised Niu Dawa's IQ. .
"——" The corners of Niu Dawa's eyes twitched, and his face turned green on the spot. Blue flames more than three feet high shot up from his body. He jumped towards Monk Huixin and roared: "I want to eat roasted monk tonight." !”
"Brother, I was wrong, I never dare to do it again!"
"It's no use calling me daddy."
"Dad, I was wrong, I never dare again!"
"——"
Everyone was speechless, and their hearts became more and more confused. The good impression they had on this handsome monk, who looked innocent and naive, and who also gave people a sense of wisdom was completely gone.
This is clearly a bad monk who has no shame and no limits.
They all reminded themselves secretly, telling themselves that they must be careful when dealing with this guy in the future and not be deceived by his innocent appearance.
The atmosphere was a little tense, but when Monk Huixin made such a fuss, the tension suddenly disappeared.
"Who are you, Black Widow?" Butcher Zhang asked with interest as he looked at the black mist billowing behind the black-robed woman.
"Senior, she is the master of this junior." The woman in black robe respectfully replied.
Butcher Zhang looked sideways at Taoist Tianwu, stroked his beard and said with a smile, "He is the disciple of your old friend."
"Get out!" Taoist Tianwu glared at him angrily, then looked at the black-robed woman and asked, "Is your master still there?"
"Senior, my master is still alive." The woman in black robe replied.
"Oh" Taoist Tianwu responded lightly, then lay back on the bamboo chair and said, "For your master's sake, let it go this time. Next time you dare to appear in front of me, you will not be lenient. Pawn, help her get it done for free."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone could tell that Taoist Tianwu was closely related to the Black Widow, the master of the black-robed woman.
"Thank you, senior!" The black-robed woman hurriedly thanked the Tianwu Daoist, "I, the junior, would like to say hello to the senior on behalf of my master. I dare to ask my senior for his title——"
Taoist Tianwu waved his hand and interrupted the black-robed woman's words, unwilling to talk more.
The woman in black robe is wise enough to shut up.
"Did the girl bring anything?" Zhang Xiaozu asked.
"Bring it with me." The woman in black robe responded, raised her hand, and threw out a drop-shaped blue flat jade pendant from the wide sleeve of her robe.
Zhang Xiaozu stretched out his hand to take it, but as soon as he took the jade pendant, he suddenly screamed "Ah" and almost gave up and threw the jade pendant away, because the jade pendant hit his hand with a biting coldness, instantly penetrated his palm and spread along the He grabbed his arm and attacked upward, causing him to shiver violently.
"Sorry, I didn't know you-" The woman in black robe apologized quickly, wanting to say that she didn't know Zhang Xiaozu was so weak, but she stopped in time.
"It doesn't matter." Zhang Xiaozu smiled and waved his hand. Although the jade pendant was cold and biting, the main reason was that he had collected all his cultivation skills. Now he was a strong man with strong blood and essence, and he could resist naturally without any psychological defense. The cold air couldn't help but he forced the cold air out of his body as soon as he mobilized his energy and blood.
"Girl, wait a moment." Zhang Xiaozu stood up and said. It was all a show, not to mention there were many pairs of eyes staring at me in the darkness around me, so I picked up the jade pendant and walked to the bamboo house. After thinking about it, I slightly increased the power of blessing.
After waiting in the bamboo house for a while, Zhang Xiaopou walked out slowly, threw the jade pendant back to the black-robed woman, and said: "The quality of the girl's jade pendant is good."
This explains the enhanced power of blessing.
The woman in black robe held the jade pendant in her hand and felt it for a moment. Her eyes hidden in the black robe's hat suddenly lit up. She was pleasantly surprised to find that the power of the jade pendant to nourish the soul was much stronger than the jade pendant hanging at the entrance of the courtyard. Da Zhi thought it was because of the high quality of his jade pendant, then he thanked Zhang Xiaozu and bowed to Taoist Tianwu and Zhang Butcher before leaving. Then he took a small step back and his whole body was submerged in the black mist. Under the surprised looks of Zhang Xiaozu and others As the black mist dissipated, he disappeared.
Bang!
Niu Dawa brought back a monk Huixin with a bruised nose and swollen face, and threw it on the ground like trash. Completely ignoring his moans of pain, he asked Master Tianwu: "Senior, what is a demonic cultivator who has broken the precepts?"
"It is a demonic cultivator who has sucked the essence, blood and soul of living people, or a demonic cultivator who has used the essence, blood and soul of living people to feed corpses, souls, ghosts and other evil spirits. Taoist disciples regard such demonic cultivators as monsters and will punish them on sight. You kid, do your own thing. , If you dare to break the precepts, I will send you to reincarnation immediately." Tianwu Taoist glanced at Niu Dawa coldly.
Niu Dawa was so frightened that he shrank his neck.
"I would like to ask Mr. Zhang to bless me with something." Another person walked out of the darkness soon. Instead of taking the courtyard door, he jumped over the fence and entered the courtyard. Like the woman in black robe, she also had her head covered. Judging from his body shape and his voice, he must be a middle-aged man.
This person came closer and without saying much nonsense, he first threw a jade ring to Zhang Xiaozu, then took off the bag from his waist and threw it to Zhang Xiaozu, and said: "This is the reward, it should be enough for fifty pills." Yuanshi Golden Pill, please check it."
Butcher Zhang reached out and grabbed the bag, opened it and looked at the contents one by one, then nodded and said: "Just a lot more."
"Wait a moment." Zhang Xiaozu stood up after hearing this.
"Wait a minute." Butcher Zhang called out to Zhang Xiaopeng who wanted to go to the bamboo house. He glanced at the darkness around him and said loudly: "It's getting late, it's time to go to bed. Anyone who wants to bless the objects can come together. After the blessing is completed, I will send you away, and I will ensure that no one knows where you went after you left this courtyard. If someone pretends not to hear, and still goes his own way and rushes into the courtyard, he will die in an ugly way, but don't blame me for not warning you in advance."
After saying that, he reached out and grasped the air in front of him, then smiled and took his hand back.
The people hiding in the dark and watching felt that their bodies were suddenly imprisoned by a powerful force. They hurriedly tried to break free, but were horrified to find that this imprisoning force was not something they could resist. However, just as their souls were flying out of the sky, the imprisoning force As Butcher Zhang spread his fingers and dissipated, they realized that they thought they were hiding unnoticed, but in fact they had been exposed to others for a long time. Only then did they realize how terrifying the old man in the yard was.
Shocked, they immediately looked at Butcher Zhang intently, wanting to take a closer look at Butcher Zhang's appearance and guess who this remarkable man was, but when they looked intently at Butcher Zhang's face, they couldn't help but look stunned. Only then did he realize that he couldn’t see Butcher Zhang’s face clearly.
At first glance, Butcher Zhang's face and even the hairs on his face were clearly visible, but after taking a closer look, he was surprised to find that his face was obscured by an invisible force and his appearance could not be seen clearly at all.
Seeing the terror of Butcher Zhang, several people turned around and ran away without thinking, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
But some people walked out of the darkness, either through the courtyard gate or over the wall. When they came closer, they greeted Butcher Zhang and Taoist Tianwu, and then gave the objects to be blessed to Zhang Xiaopeng, and gave the reward to Butcher Zhang.
Counting the first man, there were seven people in total, all of whom were strong men with strong energy and blood. But they all covered their heads and faces, fearing that others would see their appearance and do evil to them.
"They are all sufficient." After checking the rewards given by the seven people one by one, Butcher Zhang nodded with satisfaction and signaled to Zhang Xiaopeng that he could go. Then he threw the eight gift bags to Taoist Tianwu and said, "There are a few things These are pretty good medicinal materials, see if you can make some medicines."
"Let's talk tomorrow." Taoist Tianwu waved his hand and threw the bag into his void space.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Zhang Xiaozu came out of the bamboo house and returned the blessed objects one by one. After the eight people held them in their hands and felt them, they all nodded with satisfaction.
"Don't resist, I will send you away with a spatial teleportation. If anyone moves around and falls into the turbulent flow of space, don't blame me." Butcher Zhang reminded.
The eight people all nodded happily, this was much safer than leaving on their own.
Zhang Butcher glanced at it, and the array shook and twisted before disappearing out of thin air. When he reappeared, he was thousands of steps away in different directions.
"Why do these people come so late at night?" Monk Huixin asked in confusion.
"Most of them are casual cultivators who are afraid of being targeted by people with evil intentions. However, what they are most afraid of is the sect gang. For casual cultivators who do not have strong power to rely on, the people of the sect gang are far more terrifying than robbers and bandits." Butcher Zhang explained.
Niu Dawa nodded vigorously and said, "I understand deeply."
"Why don't the casual cultivators work together to fight against the oppression of the sect gangs?" Zhou Jianlai asked with a frown.
"There was an alliance of loose cultivators before, but it soon changed its flavor, and eventually it was disbanded due to internal conflicts." Zhang Tufu said, "If the loose cultivators can work together as one, they won't be called loose cultivators."
…
At eight o'clock in the morning the next day, the people of Yancheng cheered because the officials announced that water would be diverted to build houses, and people in the city were mobilized to repair the Wangchuan River that ran through the entire Yancheng from north to south. Clean up the cracked silt at the bottom of the river and plug all cracks to prevent water from flowing into the river and flowing underground.
The Wangchuan River is originally an artificial river. When the river was first built, very complete anti-leakage measures were built on the bottom of the river, so it is relatively easy to repair. Moreover, the people in the city had drank enough water and eaten in the past two days, and they were all rejuvenated. When they heard that water was to be diverted to fill the Wangchuan River, their enthusiasm was extremely high, and they rushed to work.
It only took one day to repair the Wangchuan River.
At the same time, the officials were responsible for providing two full meals a day, plus a generous salary of one or two grains of grain, and recruited a large number of strong laborers to go to the mountains outside Yancheng to cut wood, quarry stone, transport soil, and make bricks——
Yancheng, which was hit hard by drought and earthquake, finally came back to life.
Someone renamed Badwater Swamp - Lake Grace.
…
The coffin was suspended for three days.
The five members of the Qi family buried the blind uncle wearing sackcloth and mourning.
After everything was tidied up at home, the family of five, led by Qi Wuwei, went to Tingyaxuan again to visit Butcher Zhang, but were told that Butcher Zhang had left.
