Things went more smoothly than expected, and the Elder Zhixi was used to being pampered, where had he been beaten so badly, and soon he couldn't survive the punishment, and he honestly confessed.

It turned out that before this Elder Zhixi became a monk, he was also a child of a rich family, but later his family was ruined, impoverished, and he lived in the Sanssouci Cave.

There is already an organization in the Sanssouci Cave, and there are still poor ghosts at the bottom, but the people who control the poor ghosts have become rich.

It can only be said that where there are people, there is class, and where there is class, there is exploitation.

Where could Elder Zhixi endure this kind of hard life, so he tried every possible way to climb up and become a member of the ruling class of Sanssouci Cave.

He had read books, and his knowledge was far better than that of ordinary Qianshou, and he soon stood out among the crowd and met the cave master of Sanssouci Cave.

But literacy alone is not enough, he has to be useful to the cave owner, even irreplaceable, so he racked his brains to open a new way of wealth for the Sanssouci Cave.

It didn't take long for the down-and-out scholar to disappear, and it was the Zhixi monk of Daxiangguo Temple who appeared in front of him.

With his unique identity as a monk, he was often able to meet the ladies of wealthy families.

Those women with outstanding looks and no deep background were secretly marked by him and secretly guided the people of the Ghost Fan Building to be taken away and sold.

In the past, when Sanssouci robbed women, they all acted randomly, and when they saw a beautiful woman on the street, they looked for an opportunity to kidnap them.

Not to mention the uneven quality, it is easy to provoke the family members of the big people, causing death in the cave, and you have to bleed heavily to get rid of it.

But now with the Wisdom Monk for preliminary screening, this line of work has become more stable, safer, and more rewarding.

With this, he was valued by the cave master of Sanssouci Cave and became the core backbone of the Ghost Fan Tower.

And with the support of Ghost Fan Lou, he went from an ordinary monk to the head and chief step by step, and finally became the hall master and elder.

In the past few decades, I have been "conscientious", and I don't know how many sins have been created.

After the trial, all the relatives and guards were speechless:

"Ri Niang!"

"Compared with this old bald donkey, I am also a good person!"

Ghost Li stepped forward, picked up this guy, patted him on the shoulder, and said:

"You are a bald thief, even if you are chopped, you are not wronged."

"Now you only have one way to live, and that is to take us down to Sanssouci Cave and find the cave master."

"When we fight, you may be able to escape."

Monk Zhixi trembled, his teeth were fighting, and his mouth was just begging for mercy.

"The king spares his life!"

"The old man has long known that he was wrong, and he has thought about quitting, but the cave master is very fierce, and once he joins, he can't quit even if he wants to."

"The old man was also forced to have no choice, so he had to reduce the number of people selected as much as possible, and chanted sutras day and night to pray for the blessing of the murdered woman."

"Prayer? Pray for a bird's blessing! Ghost Li pouted, very disdainful of the old bald donkey's brazen behavior.

"Don't talk nonsense, lead the way immediately, or someone will cut you down with an axe."

"A certain family here, don't raise waste!"

Because of the lessons from the past, when the monk Zhixi was executed this time, he was very measured, and it did not affect the monk's walking at all.

Monk Zhixi walked in front, Ghost Li followed closely behind him to prevent him from being killed, and the rest of the people hid their swords and shields and followed behind.

This Sanssouci cave extends in all directions, in all parts of the city, there are entrances and exits, that is, near this Daxiangguo Temple, there are also gutters, you can go down to the underground.

This place is remote, there are few people, originally to facilitate the wisdom of the monk to go down to the Sanssouci Cave to enjoy, but now it is convenient for Li Gui and others.

Everyone went underground, lit torches, and then looked at this Sanssono Cave, and sure enough, it was a spacious and empty dungeon.

It was dark and gloomy, the air was damp and cold, and although it was paved with bluestone slabs, the sewage was flowing sideways, and there was a disgusting stench everywhere.

The surrounding walls are messy, all of which are the remains of the ruined city, with stones and earth, varying heights, uncertain locations, and no regularity at all.

The moss crawled all over the walls, and it looked like a thick blanket of fungus, which was extremely disgusting.

Even if the torch is lit, the vision is still limited by the darkness, and only a short distance can be seen, which makes people feel very depressed and dull.

Different from the bustling and lively on the ground, the Sanssouci Cave is quiet, only the sound of rushing water in the ears, from time to time some gravel falls, splashes a splash, or there are water droplets falling, making a ticking sound, but it is even more lonely.

The firelight flickered, making a "beep" sound, stretching and shaking everyone's shadows, showing teeth and claws on the wall, like ghosts, making people's heartbeats a little faster.

"Straight sissy thief!"

Ghost Li covered his nose, spat viciously, and scolded:

"What else is this kind of pickled place called enjoyment?"

"It can't be a disgusting person, right?"

Monk Zhixi grimaced and carefully explained:

"Don't worry, this is near the waterway, of course the smell is a little unpleasant."

"A little further on, and you'll have a clean place."

As the monk turned westward, they gradually moved away from the drainage network and entered the abandoned underground building area, and the ground turned dry, and although the air was still turbid, there was no longer a foul smell.

And as we go deeper inward, there are more and more artificial buildings.

None of them were serious buildings, they were obviously hastily constructed houses, but there were already some signs of order.

Humans, indeed, are order-abiding creatures.

Ghost Li is too conspicuous, holding a torch high, people can find it from a distance, and it immediately attracts the attention of the people in the ghost fan building.

There was a faint sound of footsteps in the darkness, and someone stood cautiously beyond the firelight, and asked in a loud voice:

"Who's up ahead?"

Ghost Li took the Zhixi monk out from behind, pushed him to the front, and asked him to step forward to answer.

Monk Zhixi read a poem aloud, answered a few words with the other party, and was gently let go.

Several people continued to move forward, and the monk of Zhixi explained in a low voice:

"There are often some guests who come here for entertainment, and the outer places are not strictly checked, so it is easy to get in. But it would be difficult to keep going, especially to the cave master's dwelling. ”

"If it were just me, it would be much easier, but there are many of you, and you can see that the comer is not good, and if you can't say it, you will shoot arrows randomly, so the king must be careful!"

"If the old man is shot to death, it will be difficult to find the location of the cave master in this complicated dungeon."

Li Ghost thought for a while, motioned for everyone to go separately, he walked in front with the monk Zhixi, and everyone dropped out far away in the rear, and when the battle started, he rushed over.

The pair of plate axes were too conspicuous, so he handed them to the people behind him to carry them in twos and twos, and he only held a torch in his hand for illumination.

In this way, the two of them will be bare-handed, and the defenders will be much more relaxed.

After walking for a while, the environment became more and more clean and tidy, and suddenly someone asked coldly in the darkness:

"Why isn't this guest happy in front and coming to the rear?"

Monk Zhixi looked up to the sky and snorted, kept under his feet, continued to move forward, and said in his mouth:

"Old man, there are some urgent matters that need to be met with the cave master, please follow through."

In the darkness, an arrow suddenly shot out and landed at the feet of the monk Zhixi, and at the same time there was a loud shout: "Someone is coming, stop!" ”

Monk Zhixi stood still and said with a smile:

"It's all my own brothers, so I don't have to be so unsympathetic, right?"

"If you look closely, I am indeed wise!"

As he spoke, he turned around and asked for a torch from Ghost Li's hand, and brought it to his face so that the people inside could see it clearly.

The man's voice softened a lot, and he asked softly:

"It turns out that it is really the Zen Master of Zhixi, but I don't know, who is the person behind the Zen Master?"

Monk Zhixi smiled and said, "This is a distinguished guest I invited, and I have big business to discuss with the cave master. ”

The voice said, "It's not in order, you can go in, he can't." ”

Monk Zhixi took two steps forward and said with a smile: "Let's not talk about this matter first, the old man is asking for something." ”

"I don't know what's going on?"

"Of course it'......" Monk Zhixi suddenly threw down the torch, his body slammed forward, rolled on the ground, and shouted: "Help! ”
