The monk saw that Qi Lu was still a hanger after sitting down, and the ignorance in his heart rose vigorously, thinking that if he didn't give him a lesson today, he would be even more arrogant in the future.

After thinking about it, the monk already had an idea, so he chuckled and said, "Since the donor is also a cultivator, why don't we change some spells to help the prime minister." ”

Do you want to test my bottom line, Qi Lu sneered and said nothing.

Seeing Qi Lu, the monk only smiled and didn't speak, and didn't wait for him to say his opinion before he preemptively said: "Then the poor monk will sacrifice his ugliness first!" After speaking, he slammed the Zen staff in his hand to the ground, smashing the floor with a "bang".

Qi Lu laughed: "Does the master want to compare with me who smashes the floor loudly?" ”

"Don't be in a hurry, let you see the real chapter right away!" As he spoke, the monk was already chanting a mantra.

Everyone immediately knew that a good show was about to be staged, and they all stretched their necks to see what this monk was capable of, and even the family members and maids outside the hall gathered at the door to watch the excitement.

Suddenly, the monk shook the Zen staff, only to hear a "bang", the Zen staff came out of his hand, turned into a golden dragon in the air and rushed towards Qi Lu!

Qi Lu turned pale, touched his hand into his arms, and immediately complained bitterly, only then did he remember that all his runes were placed in Xu Jingqiao and had not been brought, and in desperation, he had to turn his eyes to Lao Wu for help.

Lao Wu sneered, jumped up, and saw a flash of golden light in his hand, and the golden dragon was split open with the swing of the short knife, and fell to the ground, revealing the original form of the Zen staff and breaking into two.

"Rude, rude!" Lao Wu put away the short knife and sat back in the chair to drink tea.

"Hehe, the poor monk is just using illusions to entertain you, why did you ask for help." The monk was complacent, and recited the incantation silently. The Zen staff on the ground wriggled like a living creature as he chanted his incantation, and then turned into two golden dragons that roared and swooped towards Qi Lu!

Qi Lu couldn't help but be furious when he saw the monk approaching step by step, and scolded secretly: "You bald donkey is really too deceitful!" If I don't give you some color today, you don't know how many eyes Lord Ma has! ”

Qi Lu hurriedly pinched the trick with both hands and recited the incantation. There was a loud "boom" above his head, as if a dark thunder was rolling through. Seeing that the two golden dragons were about to catch Qi Lu, they suddenly froze in mid-air, constantly writhing their bodies as if they were in extreme pain.

In the blink of an eye, the dragon's belly swelled and became transparent, and there seemed to be light flowing like water inside. In the surprised eyes of everyone, only to hear a "bang", the stomachs of these two dragons exploded, and they turned into Zen sticks and fell to the feet of Qi Lu.

"Good!" Everyone in the hall couldn't help but cheer, the monk's face was blue and white for a while, and when he saw that Qi Lu easily broke his spell, it was not good to say anything.

Qi Lu was trying to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and also used a spell to conjure up an evil dragon to tease the monk. Who knew that before the spell was recited, Lao Wu had already pressed down his hand that was pinching the trick.

"Be forgiving and forgiving." After Lao Wu whispered to him, he stood up with a smile on his face and took the broken Zen staff in his hand, only to see him put the Zen staff together and sprinkle the tea in the cup to the broken place, and the Zen staff was immediately reconnected under the power of his spell.

Lao Wu smiled and handed the Zen staff back to the monk, and said calmly: "Master, the spell point is over, and I have conceded it." ”

The monk took the cane and saw that there was not a trace of crack in the fracture, he couldn't help but be convinced, and quickly stood up and said to Lao Wu: "Please forgive the little monk for treating people with good looks, but I don't know that the spells of the two donors are so sophisticated." As he spoke, his tone became polite.

Then he came to Qi Lu and clasped his palms together and said, "The benefactor is a talented little monk who has offended, and I hope you don't be surprised." ”

"There, there." Qi Lu saw that he had destroyed his prestige, and the gloom in his black pupils gradually faded, but he added a little interest.

"Smack!" The prime minister in the hall, Ding Wei, applauded and praised: "The spells of several people are all unique today, which is really an eye-opener for the old man." ”

"The adult has won the prize, and the spell of the little monk is not worth mentioning." The monk said with a little shame: "I don't know the names of the two donors? ”

Before Qi Lu could talk, the master had already stepped forward to introduce the monk to him.

After hearing this, the monk bowed slightly, and then clasped his palms together and said: "It turns out that the two donors are outsiders, no wonder the little monk can't see where you are told." ”

Qi Lu smiled and asked, "May I ask the master's number?" ”

The monk smiled and said: "The poor monk Huiyuan is now practicing Buddhism in Jinshan Temple in Zhenjiang. ”

Jinshan Temple? Qi Lu was taken aback when he heard this, and was about to ask about his origin, when the master said with a flattering face: "Master Huiyuan is not only the host of Jinshan Temple, but also the national teacher of the current Holy Emperor. ”

"It turned out to be the abbot master, disrespectful, disrespectful!" Qi Lu hesitated and asked back: "Dare to ask the abbot if he knows Master Fahai?" ”

"Ah, does the donor recognize the tutor?"

"Are you saying that Master Fahai is your master?" Qi Lu was shocked again.

"Exactly."

"Then where is Master Fahai now?"

"The family teacher has passed away, and he left his last words before his death for the little monk to inherit his mantle and kill demons for the benefit of the people."

Qi Lu couldn't help but glance at Lao Wu, both of them knew that Bai Suzhen had been suppressed by Fahai under the Leifeng Pagoda at this time, and he himself had swallowed the meat mushroom, hiding in the tomb and sleeping waiting for the awakening after a thousand years.

"Could it be that the two of them are friends with their family teachers?" It turned out that this Huiyuan had been a monk in Jinshan Temple since he was a child, and he was Fahai's proud protégé, and he was very unfamiliar after hearing Qi Lu's name, and he had never heard the master mention it, so he asked this question.

"I'm ashamed, I've lived outside the Saiwai for a long time, and I only have a few relationships with the master, I wanted to take advantage of this time to come to the Central Plains to visit Master Fahai in Zhenjiang, but I heard the bad news of his immortal death from your mouth, it's really sad." Qi Lu hurriedly lied, in case Huiyuan saw the flaw.

Lao Wu was also afraid that Qi Lu would lose too many words, so he hurriedly changed the topic and said: "I didn't expect the master to be deeply favored by the saint at a young age and become the national teacher of the dynasty. Besides, you are a senior disciple of Master Fahai, so naturally your spells are amazing, I don't know why when my brother said that there were monsters in the Prime Minister's Mansion just now, the master had a different opinion? ”

Lao Wu's question was also the doubt in Ding Wei's heart, and he brushed his beard and said: "Since the master said this, there must be a deep meaning in it, so you might as well say it to the old man directly." These two righteous men just saved the old man's life, and they are reasonable people, how can they feel guilty. ”

Qi Lu also smiled and said: "It may be that he is not good at learning and is speechless for a while, and I hope that the master will solve the confusion in his heart." ”

"Ashamed, ashamed." This Huiyuan saw Qi Lu's ability, and he was not as arrogant as when he first entered the living room, he pondered for a moment before he said slowly: "The little monk is indifferent by nature, if there is no emperor's invitation, he only practices in the temple on weekdays and rarely goes out to travel. This time, it was because the adults sent people to invite me many times to promote Buddhism, and the little monk came to live in Dingfu temporarily, and it has been more than half a month. ”

Qi Lu sneered secretly, thinking to himself that he was afraid that I would tear down your signboard, so he was hesitant and wanted to divert the topic?

Huiyuan said: "During this period of time, Lord Ding's mansion was peaceful, and there were no supernatural incidents, so the little monk dared to think that even if there were demons who wanted to make trouble from it, he would be afraid of the Prime Minister's righteousness and dare not stay. In addition, seeing the two people who came from afar, they didn't know the donor's ability, so the little monk was anxious and worried about ......"

Speaking of this, Huiyuan's face turned red, and he couldn't talk anymore. Qi Lu replied disappreciatively: "It turns out that the master is afraid that we are charlatans and come to defraud money?" ”

"There, the mana of the donor is far above me, when he goes to the temple to face the saint, I should recommend two to take my place, and the little monk is willing to abdicate and make way for Xian." Huiyuan's face turned even redder.

Qi Lu almost couldn't help laughing, he said in his heart that this monk is much more honest than his master Fahai, why should I bother with him! So Qi Lu also turned his mouth and said: "The master cut and killed Xiaosheng, although we have learned some small yin and yang skills, it is difficult to get into the lobby." What's more, when it comes to Buddhism, I don't know anything about it, the master must not change his mind, it is very suitable for you to be the national teacher. ”

As soon as Hui Yuan wanted to respond, Qi Lu hurriedly said: "I just came to the Central Plains and was not adaptable, and it is common for me to lose my eyes for a while. Since the master has lived in the prime minister's mansion for a long time, he has never seen a demon hidden in the mansion, so he must be overlooking, and when I was talking nonsense just now, the master should not take it to heart. ”

Na Ding Wei originally heard Qi Lu say that there were monsters in the house, and his heart was already uneasy, but now when he heard him say this, he couldn't help but put his mind at ease, and saw that Qi Lu was a humble person, and suddenly had a little more affection for him, he stood up and said with a smile: "A few of them are all distinguished guests in my house, the old man has prepared thin wine, and a few of them will go with me to the banquet to chat." With that, he waved his hand and made a word of invitation.

"Wait a minute, sir." Hui Yuan hurriedly walked up to Qi Lu and said: "There is a saying in Buddhism that monks from afar will chant scriptures. Qi Shizhu came from afar, and he is a person with great magical powers. Since the donor said that there was a demon in the adult's house, it was naturally a reason for his words, and how could he deliberately conceal it in order to take care of the little monk's feelings. I hope you will give me advice and find out this demon, and the little monk can ambush him on the spot to make up for his negligence. ”

Qi Lu was stunned, he didn't expect this Huiyuan to be so serious, he hesitated to turn his eyes to Lao Wu for help. Although he and Lao Wu had noticed this extremely faint demonic aura when they first entered the mansion, after talking with Huiyuan, they felt that this monk was a sincere gentleman, and he really couldn't bear to let him get off the stage in public.

Lao Wu smiled, stepped forward and said, "The master's mind is really admired by the next good students. I have a word, I wonder if the master is willing to listen? ”

"But it doesn't hurt to talk about it."

"As the saying goes, facts speak louder than words. We don't have to bother arguing, it's better for us to wait and inspect the prime minister's mansion, if there is really a monster, according to what the master said, you will not lose your duty if you capture him on the spot; If there are no monsters, let our brothers make amends to you, so that you will not be talked about. ”

"This is a great good!" Huiyuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly folded his palms and recited the Buddha's name.

Ding Wei was also not easy to distract everyone, so he instructed the family to inform the men and women in the mansion that they were not allowed to leave the mansion without authorization, and then arranged for the master to take Huiyuan and the three of them to inspect their mansion immediately.

Huiyuan was about to go down with his master, when he saw that Prime Minister Ding also wanted to go with them, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said: "Prime Minister, if there are monsters hiding in the mansion as Lord Qi said, the poor monk is worried that if he fights with him, the monsters will have evil thoughts and hurt the adults." Therefore, the poor monk advised the adults to go back to the room to rest and wait for the good news! ”

Qi Lu saw that Huiyuan was so considerate of others, and he also stepped forward to persuade him, and Ding Wei realized the stakes, so he had to dispel the idea of watching the excitement and went back to the room to rest.
