Several people stopped.

Cotton carefully guarded Zhang Meishou's side.

Gradually, the sound of footsteps entered the ears, not hurried, but the sound of the soles of shoes stepping on the fallen leaves.

has been so unconcealed, the other party is obviously going to show up.

Zhang Meishou looked at the direction where the footsteps came, and secretly guessed in his heart - since Cotton said that the other party had been secretly following, it would not be an ordinary chance encounter.

"Ah Li, light the lamp."

She whispered.

It was dark all around, and it was in the barren back mountain outside the city, in this situation, Ah Li was a little nervous, and it took a long time to find out the fire fold, and the wind lantern that had been held in his hand was lit.

The night was dispelled, and in a shadowy firelight, the figure finally appeared.

Ah Li and Mian are on Zhang Meishou's side.

Looking at the white shadow in his sight now, Zhang Meishou quietly squeezed the jade bottle in his hand.

The other party recited "Amitabha" lightly.

He was a monk.

The tense Ah Li breathed a sigh of relief.

It sounds like a young monk, and it should be a monk in this great Yongchang Temple.

Zhang Meishou never relaxed his vigilance at all, but was suspicious.

It was strange that the young monk had appeared alone in the back mountain, where almost no one had set foot on it, and had apparently been following them secretly for a long time, only to appear at this time.

She didn't speak for a while, just waiting for the other party to explain her intentions.

Cotton is also still a defensive posture.

He could tell from the footsteps of the other person that this person was very skilled—and he had only noticed that the other person was following him in secret, but he had not noticed when this person was approaching...... Because of this, he couldn't figure out the true depth of this person for a while.

"Female benefactor."

The young monk bowed to Zhang Meishou with his hands folded.

Zhang Meishou lowered his head slightly and returned the salute silently.

The monk's voice was gentle and gentle: "The master ordered the little monk to invite the female benefactor into the temple for a while." ”

Zhang Meishou did not deliberately hide the surprise color, and immediately asked: "I don't know which senior monk the respected teacher is?" Why do you want to see me? ”

"The little monk is a disciple of the great master Jixiao."

Zhang Meishou was surprised.

Jixiao wants to see her?

In the last life, she and Jixiao had no intersection worth mentioning in private.

Why are there such variables in this life?

Zhang Meishou couldn't think of an answer for a while, so he subconsciously wanted to refuse.

But the monk said before she spoke: "The master said that when I saw the female donor in the Guan Ju Garden today, I felt that the female donor was very Buddha-like, so I specially invited the female donor to go and see her." ”

Buddha's fate?

It's good that he didn't mention these two words, but when he mentioned them, he immediately made Ah Li's whole person frightened.

You have to know that those boys and girls who were once called Buddha-related by the great teachers of the great powers...... Most of them have been sacrificed to the sky!

In an instant, I thought of the strange scene of a drunk man biting his tongue and committing suicide in front of the great master, Ah Li was even more afraid, and moved a few inches in front of Zhang Meishou with the courage to stretch out his arms, making the gesture of an old hen protecting her chicks.

"It's late at night, and my girl is in a hurry to go home, and if she gets home late, she will be punished." Ah Li said, the confidence in her voice was strong.

"Female benefactor, please move." As if he hadn't heard Ah Li's words, the monk said straight to Zhang Meishou.

This is the "must go".

Cotton clenched his fist slightly, just waiting for Zhang Meishou to speak.

He doesn't care what a big country teacher is, whether it's a big country teacher or not.

Zhang Meishou's thoughts are different from him.

I can hide from the first day of junior high school, but I can't hide from the fifteenth. Jixiao wants to see her, a little girl with an ordinary identity, and there are many names and opportunities.

Besides, if she can't understand the other party's intentions, she will also feel uneasy.

Taking 10,000 steps back, she had no choice at the moment—if she let Cotton do anything with the monk in front of her, not to mention that it seemed too different, or the odds were probable, the possible consequences of this matter alone would be a hundred times worse than the situation she was facing at the moment.

She could sense Ah Li's worries, but she was not Ah Li, she knew very well that if Ji Xiao intended to harm her, there was no need to go through such a lot of trouble.

Looking at Dajing, there are only a handful of people who can be invited by Jixiao alone.

"Please lead the way."

Zhang Meishou said.

Hearing this, the monk recited the Buddha's words, turned around and walked in front.

Zhang Meishou followed not far away.

"Girl, are we really going? That great teacher, really ......" Even though Ah Li kept her voice very low, she didn't dare to say the words "evil sect is very".

Like most of the people of Dajing, she was in awe and awe of this high-minded and mysterious great teacher, and that fear was almost deep in her bones.

People have always been like this in the face of unknown and uncontrollable powerful things.

Besides, this great master does have some skills.

Zhang Meishou thought of the ending of this person in the previous life.

After Zhu Youzhang ascended the throne, he vigorously purged the atmosphere of Fang Shi in power, not only erased the false titles of the great teacher and the Buddha, but also immediately sentenced Ji Xiao to be beheaded - the means were thunderous and fast, almost beyond everyone's expectations.

At that time, the guilty Ning family was also punished for the heinous crime, but Zhu Youzhu was also tolerant, only seized the power of the Ning family, and did not kill them all, which can be called a model of benevolence. And only Ji Xiao and others, who were selling the skills of Fang Shi, were merciless and uprooted.

Jixiao was beheaded at the entrance of Xicai Market that year.

But many years after Zhu Youzhang's death, Zhang Meishou learned the news that Jixiao was still alive - it is said that he secretly invested in the command of Xingxian Wang Zhu Youyuan, and was later used by the son of Xingxian Wang, that is, Zhang Meishou personally supported the emperor's throne.

Zhu Zhao was obsessed with the way of immortality, but he was very suspicious and did not dare to let Jixiao go, so he ordered Chen Yin, the commander of the Jinyi Guard at that time, and Canglu to secretly watch Jixiao and imprison him in a secret prison.

Therefore, the second half of this demon monk's life has never seen the light of day, just to survive.

Zhang Meishou has always wondered how he escaped the punishment of beheading in full view of everyone and was not discovered.

That's not just an ordinary trick.

Therefore, Ji Xiao has some skills that are true. But if we talk about the power of heaven, it is obviously nonsense to deceive the world.

Seeing that Zhang Meishou ignored himself and didn't know what he was thinking, Ah Li's heart was even more uneasy.

She turned her face to look at the cotton and whispered, "Can you wring out the water beads on your body...... Along the way, it ticked and ticked, and it made people's hearts hairy. ”

She was originally afraid, and when she listened to this voice again, she only felt strangely tight.

Cotton shook the corner of his clothes and frowned, "It's already half-dry—you should wipe the cold sweat off your head." ”

Ah Li raised her hand and touched her forehead, and was shocked to find that she was like a heavy rain, her scalp was soaked, beads of sweat were rolling down, and the wind was blowing coldly.

The sight gradually brightens, and the Dayongchang Temple, which is rushed by people day and night, looks particularly solemn in the lights.

The monk led Zhang Meishou all the way to the apse.

Ji Xiao waited here.
