The red sun is rising, and its way is bright; Thousands of miles of forests, some splendor.

More than ten kilometers from Chizuka Ridge, a steep mountainside stretches outward a huge rock, and on the rock sits an antique temple. This temple with only seven or eight houses is backed by dangerous rocks, down to the deep valley, on the green screen, the wall rock has no steps, the green trees and red walls, the pine and cypress, it looks very solemn. This temple is very different from ordinary temples, the geographical location is remote and dangerous, there are no pilgrims to come and go, the whole temple is half suspended, half is hidden in the green mountains and green quilts, it seems to be unusually quiet.

In this way, the temple does not even have a name, and there are not many visitors throughout the year, and the gate is basically closed. But today, the gate has been opened, and in the hall facing the gate, a life-size Buddha statue sits on a heavy rosewood offering table. The Buddha statue is made of pure gold, the demeanor is serene, lifelike, and vivid, which shows that the craftsman who created the Buddha statue is definitely a first-class master. In front of the offering table was a huge copper incense burner, which was full of incense ashes, and an arm-thick incense candle was smoking, and a faint fragrance filled the whole hall.

On both sides of the incense burner, there is a two-meter-high brass crane, and in front of it, there is a futon, and on top of the futon sits an old monk. The old monk's beard was white, he couldn't tell how old he was, he sat cross-legged, with a string of smooth and round Buddha beads made of unknown materials around his neck, his hands on his knees, his eyes slightly closed, his eyelids drooped, and his expression was calm and serene, as if he had settled down. For many years, there was only one old monk living here, and in normal times, there was not even a novice who was doing miscellaneous work, but now there were two more beautiful women.

These two women are none other than Mai Hanano and Yuriko Hosokawa. Although the faces of the two are still beautiful, they both look very haggard. The two of them stood there with their heads bowed, their expressions were very respectful, although the old monk seemed to be asleep, and he hadn't even opened his eyes once for a long time, but the two of them didn't even dare to move, and they didn't even dare to breathe. In fact, they have been standing here for more than two hours, and when they came here, the old monk was like this, and he is still like this, and he doesn't know when he will be able to change this way.

Hosokawa Yuriko's neck was a little painful, and she wanted to twist and twist, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw that Hanano Mao didn't move, so she gritted her teeth and didn't move, but she was thinking in her heart: Should the master be gone, should it be a round death? However, she only thought about this idea in her heart, but she would never dare to say it. Even so, Hosokawa Yuriko's heart couldn't help but beat violently, and her breathing stopped instantly, because at this moment, she seemed to notice that the old monk was drooping and almost completely covering his eyelids, and his eyelids seemed to move slightly imperceptibly.

Hosokawa Yuriko didn't dare to come out, and her expression was even more respectful. At this time, the old monk's eyelids finally moved, his eyes slowly opened, he slowly put his hands together, and said, "Amitabha!" Hanano Mai and Hosokawa Yuriko took a breath and shouted softly respectfully, "Master! ”

The old monk's eyes were calm, he looked at Mai Hanano and Yuriko Hosokawa, and nodded faintly.

Hosokawa Yuriko looked at Hanano Mai and secretly made a look, Hanano Mai bit her lip and said cautiously: "Master, we know that you don't like to be disturbed, but、But we were chased and killed, so we had to run to you!" ”

The old monk's eyes moved slightly, but he still didn't speak, and Hanano Mayi didn't dare to hide it at all, and told the matter as it was. Listening to Hanano Maoyi's words, the old monk's eyes narrowed slightly, there was more anger in his eyes, he paused for a while, and finally spoke again: "Amitabha, what the Black Dragon Club does is mostly evil, and the old man can't imagine that you actually have dealings with them!" ”

Hanano Mai and Hosokawa Yuriko's faces were solemn, and they didn't dare to come out, and after a while, they whispered, "I'm sorry master, we were wrong!" After a while, Hosokawa Yuriko said, "We didn't join forces with them originally, but later it was difficult for the two of us to deal with the road wind, and for the sake of insurance, we wanted to do a good job in business, so we joined forces with the Black Dragon Society." ”

The old monk snorted coldly and said, "One hundred and fifty people of the Black Dragon Society, plus you, but they were defeated by four people, okay!" Good! Good! ”

Hanano Mai and Hosokawa Yuriko saw the master's face look angry, and they were so frightened that they didn't dare to speak for a while, and after a long while, Hosokawa Yuriko plucked up her courage and whispered: "Master, they are too terrible, especially that road wind, I and Mai are not his opponents when they join forces!" ”

The old monk's eyes showed a look of surprise, looked at Hanano Mai and Hosokawa Yuriko, and said in a deep voice: "Who is he?" ”

Hosokawa Yuriko hurriedly replied: "Judging by their marksmanship and combat characteristics, they should be soldiers, and they are also special forces who often participate in battles." ”

The old monk's eyes showed a look of surprise slightly, and he said to himself: "Soldier? How can a soldier have such martial arts? ”

Hosokawa Yuriko glanced at Mai Hanano, and saw that she didn't mean to speak, so she had to say, "This, I'm just as confused as Maoi." We also did a detailed investigation before accepting the sale, but we couldn't find any information about him in Huaxiaguo. ”

The look of surprise in the old monk's eyes was a little more, and when he looked at Hanano Mao and Hosokawa Yuriko, there was some dissatisfaction in his voice: "Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles, how can you be undefeated if you act rashly without understanding the enemy?" ”

Hosokawa Yuriko hurriedly said: "I'm sorry master, we also agreed to it because we saw that the Umegawa Uchisuke gave more commissions, and I didn't expect them to be so powerful." ”

The old monk shook his head slightly, folded his hands, and said slowly: "Amitabha, money is something outside the body after all, you are the closed disciples of the old man, and you can't even understand it, but you will incur disasters because of it, it's a pity!" Pity! ”

Hanano Mai and Hosokawa Yuriko glanced at each other and said in unison: "Master, we were wrong, please punish the master!" ”

The old monk sighed, shook his head slightly, and slowly closed his eyes.

Seeing that the master didn't say anything, Hanano Mai and Hosokawa Yuriko didn't feel a little anxious, but they didn't dare to say anything more, just continued to stand with their hands down. After a while, Hosokawa Yuriko saw that the master still didn't move, so she gently touched Hanano Mako's finger with her finger and glanced at her, trying to make her speak. But unexpectedly, at this moment, he saw that the old monk-like master suddenly opened, his eyes flashed, and he said loudly: "Since the donor is here, why doesn't he come in?" ”
