In the south of Xudu City, the Three Saints Sect took the helm.
This place used to be a Buddhist temple, but it was later abandoned due to the war, and no monks have come back to operate it. Later, this place was occupied by the Three Saints Sect. After driving away the homeless and beggars inside, it was cleaned up and became their stronghold in Xudu City.
"Dong dong! Open the door quickly!"
The two congregants looked unhappy and yawned as they went to open the door. As soon as the door latch was removed, the people outside couldn't wait to push the door in, knocking the two people who opened the door staggered. Just as they were about to scold him, they saw a group of people supporting Li Yiping and rushing in in a panic.
"Li...Master Li?" The church members guarding the door were stunned. Because the other person's face was covered with a white cloth soaked in blood, they had difficulty identifying it as the newly promoted master Li Yiping.
"Hurry and inform the Three Saints that Li Yiping has something important to do!" He gritted his teeth and ordered with pain.
The two of them immediately ran away and ran back. Li Yiping was also supported by everyone and walked inside step by step. The blood on his ears was still dripping, and there were drops of bright red on the stone pavement.
Everyone stopped in front of a large hall in the deepest part of the house. Li Yiping slowly knelt down with the help of everyone. He looked a little pale due to blood loss.
After a quarter of an hour, candles lit up in the hall, and then two men in white opened the door. When they saw Li Yiping's embarrassed appearance, they first showed a little gloating smile and said:
"Hey, isn't this Master Li? What happened? Are you so seriously injured?"
"I'm here to see the Three Saints. I have something important to report. Go and report it quickly!"
The man in white blocked the entrance of the hall, with no intention of giving way. "The Three Saints said, let you go and treat your injuries first. If you have anything to do, we can talk about it tomorrow."
Li Yiping raised his head and said: "Please report again, this is an urgent matter!"
The white-clothed sect members were unmoved, "The three saints are practicing the art of dual cultivation, so we cannot disturb them at this time. Brother Li, go and treat the injury quickly, otherwise your life will be at risk."
A trace of fear flashed across Li Yiping's face, but he did not dare to say anything more and stood up to leave dejectedly. At this time, the voice of the Three Saints suddenly came from inside, "Let him come in."
The white-clothed sect members put away their joking expressions, moved left and right to get out of the way, and bowed respectfully to the darkness in the hall.
Li Yiping was helped in, knelt on the ground, and saw the Three Saints lying on the bed on her side. A translucent gauze blocked his sight, but he could still vaguely see a few people lying around her. Each man looked sluggish and breathless.
"What's wrong with your ears?" the three saints asked while adjusting their clothes.
"Replying to the saint, she was harmed by that boy Song Xin." Li Yiping told the whole story. Especially the scene where two of his subordinates were bribed by Song Xin and suddenly cut off his ears, then foamed at the mouth and passed out.
"Li Yiping, you can't handle such a small thing well. It seems that I made a mistake before promoting you." The three saints were noncommittal and smiled scornfully. She didn't believe in the excuse of being possessed by a ghost, she just felt that Li Yiping was not doing things right. This world is often so ironic, those who pretend to be gods and ghosts and deceive others are the ones who truly do not believe in ghosts and gods.
Li Yiping's body trembled and he knelt down and kowtowed, "Three Saints, if Li Yiping tells a lie, he will be punished. But that boy Song Xin is indeed weird."
The Three Saints chuckled noncommittally and said, "I can't even deal with Song Xin. Now you go and recover from your injuries. I'll let others take care of it."
Li Yiping

His body was shaking and he hurriedly kowtowed and said: "I beg the three saints to give me another chance. Li Yiping will definitely fulfill his mission. I wanted to let him suffer a little first, and then pardon him in the name of the saint, and let him treat me." Teaching gratitude is unimaginable..."
The Three Saints said: "You are so smart, you and this old guy Tian Zheng have done this to him, and you have already offended him to death. Do you still want him to be grateful to me?"
Li Yiping felt weak and almost collapsed on the ground at a loss. "The villain miscalculated..."
The three saints sighed and said: "Let me discuss this matter. Here is a pill. For the sake of your loyalty, I will exempt you from punishment. After the injury is healed, you can become the three saints in black. .”
Li Yiping was ashen, and he reached out to take a small wooden box. He knew what was inside. It was definitely not a healing pill, but a zombie bee poison pill that could turn people into monsters.
"Thank you, Saint..." He stood up slowly and walked out of the door dejectedly. The congregants outside heard the conversation inside, but no one came up to help him at this time. A person who has been relegated to the rank of a member of the black-clad congregation is not worthy of their support.
After Li Yiping left, a sage in white walked to the gauze tent and asked in a low voice: "Holy girl, what should I do with his men? Some of them have had their hands and feet broken, and some have their ears cut off. I'm afraid. It’s no longer useful.”
The Three Holy Goddess said calmly: "Those who are not injured will be sent to be disciples in black clothes. Those who are injured, go and give these pills to them."
"I'll do it now." The sage in white's expression changed slightly, he slowly exited and closed the door. He turned around and came to a room on the west side of the hall. At this time, there were several other wise men in white waiting inside.
"How about it? Do you want to do it?"
"The saint said, lock them up and feed them worms first."
The white-clothed sect members nodded and took out a set of iron mail armor from the wooden box beside them, wrapping themselves tightly with only two eyes exposed. After everything was ready, they filed out of the room where Li Yiping was.
"How is it? Is he dead?" one of the Iron Armored Cultists asked.
"Wait a moment longer."
Everyone was outside the house listening to what was going on in the house. After a while, a member of the congregation gently opened the door and walked in. Because the room was too dark, the guy who walked in first rubbed his eyes and was about to turn around to greet his companions behind him, when suddenly a crazy black figure pounced in front of him.
"He swallowed a worm and changed!"
The white-clothed congregant was obviously used to this situation. He didn't panic at all. He just stretched out his hands to support the crazed man's shoulders. At this time, two mail-clad congregants rushed in from behind and put a rope around his neck. Drag him to the ground.
Then a group of people swarmed up, held down the man's limbs, and then tied him up.
A member of the congregation in white brought a light and shined it on this crazy guy's face. Everyone was shocked, "Oh no, this isn't Li Yiping! He escaped!"
When they discovered that the person in front of them was not Li Yiping, several of the white-clothed congregants broke into a cold sweat behind their backs.
"What should I do? Should I tell the Three Saints?" asked a member of the congregation in white.
Another person replied: "The Three Saints only want the corpse puppet. I don't care if it is Li Yiping, but this guy is really smart. He found a scapegoat and ran away by himself. You go and lock up this corpse puppet, and I will report to the Three Saints." "
It is said that Li Yiping escaped from the Three Saints Sect stronghold over the wall and staggered to Tian Zheng's house. Tian Zheng and Tian Kai were shocked when they saw him in such a mess.

.
"Brother Li, what's wrong with your ears?"
"The Three Saints saw that I was useless and wanted to kill me." Li Yiping gasped.
Tian Zheng was shocked: "Didn't she just become your Dharma master?"
"It's not because of that Song Xin!" Li Yiping told him about having his ears cut off. After hearing this, Tian Zheng and his son looked at each other and felt a little incredible. He also specifically ordered the guards to ignore what was going on in the cell tonight, but he didn't expect that Li Yiping failed to take revenge, and instead had one of his ears cut off by the other party.
"I underestimated him. Brother Tian, let me hide here for a few days. I will leave after I recover from my injuries." Li Yiping requested.
Tian Zheng rolled his eyes and said in a low voice: "Brother Li, there are so many people here that it's hard to hide. I also have a property in the west city of Xudu, which is relatively quiet. Brother Li can rest there until you recover. I will send someone to take you back to the countryside."
"That's great! Thank you so much, Brother Tian." Li Yiping was quite moved. Tonight he experienced a transition from heaven to hell, but fortunately an old friend was willing to help him one last time.
Tian Zheng and his son repeatedly encouraged Li Yiping to drink. After eating, Li Yiping felt sleepy and fell asleep on the table. Tian Zheng watched him sleep, the enthusiasm in his eyes suddenly disappeared, replaced by coldness.
"Dad, do we really want him to recuperate here?" Tian Kai asked quietly.
Tian Zheng stared coldly at the dancing candlelight in front of him and said softly: "Kail, this is a gift from God to us."
Tian Kai was stunned and asked curiously: "Dad, why can't I understand this?"
"Today I sentenced Song Xin and drove Guo Yi away. Someone will definitely hold him accountable in the future. Now that Li Yiping is here, if anyone inquires, they will blame everything on him."
Tian Kai looked happy, "Father, you are really good at calculating! Then I will keep a close eye on him and don't let him escape."
Tian Zheng said solemnly: "Well, if it weren't for the elixir he promised to my father and son, I wouldn't risk being dismissed from office and have a grudge with Guo Yi. Now that I think about it, I'm really obsessed with it and I really regret it. Fortunately, I still have a chance to make amends at this time. .”
"Yes, Dad, as soon as we finished the sentence, Guo Yi came. It seems that Song Xin is not simple either."
"Yes, I am always careful, but I didn't expect to be careless in this matter. I thought he was a commoner with no family background, but I didn't expect that Guo was willing to help him." Tian Zheng said.
"Kailer, please arrange a few people to serve Song Xin well, provide me with good food and drink every day, and accidentally leak it to him. I just wanted to lure the snake out of the hole and catch the real criminal, so I temporarily wronged him. .”
"Dad, I understand. I'll make arrangements right away. What will he do?" Tian Kai glanced at Li Yiping coldly.
"Let him live here with peace of mind. I have to wait for news from the Three Saints Sect." Tian Zheng said.
Tian Kai asked in confusion: "Waiting for the news over there?"
Tian Zheng nodded, stared at the sleeping Li Yiping and said: "You are still young. You don't know that this person is just like an object. You have to make the best use of people and make the best use of things. If the three saints are a smart person, they will definitely send someone Came to contact you.”
"Dad, I still don't quite understand."
Tian Zheng nodded and said: "This is what I expected. Kai'er, let that boy Zhang Wen go to the Three Saints Sect to spread the word that I want to meet the Three Saints."
In the middle of the night, Zhang Wen hurried back and whispered a few words to Tian Zheng. He nodded, changed into casual clothes and quietly walked out of Tian's house.
