Si Dao left Yancheng. Under the mountains and forests, he found a post station, drank and ate.

There will always be a post station near the town to entertain passing caravans. All this is also due to the serenity and peace of the Datong country. Otherwise, if you open a post station at the foot of such a remote mountain, the post station is very likely to encounter robbers.

In the post station, Si Dao tasted wine. There was no entertainment here, but there was a storyteller who told a story he had just found, a story that happened in the Western Regions—a story that shocked Si Dao.

This story is the story of the assassination of the Holy Maiden of Hehuan twenty days ago.

This is a major event in the cultivation realm. But such a big thing actually came out of the mouth of mortals. You must know that the party Si Dao has just returned to the Eastern Territory from the Western Regions. But right now, a mortal has actually compiled it into a colorful story. Although the content of the story is exaggerated, it is not much different from Si Dao's experience.

In addition, at the end of the story, it is revealed that the leader of the assassination of the Hehuan Holy Maiden is the representative of Tianzen Buddhism - Zhuang Jianze.

The reasons for this are, first, Zhuang Jianze once appeared in the Shangzheng Kingdom and clashed with Hehuan's disciples; second, on the ground where the saint and the assassin were fighting, someone found Zhuang Jianze's personal belongings; third, the strength of the Tianzen Sect has increased greatly in recent years, and the theory of natural selection that it pursues regards other sects and regions as aliens.

In this way, in the eyes of mortals, it is normal for Zhuang Jianze to want to assassinate the Holy Maiden of Hehuan and prevent Hehuan from growing. In this way, the Heavenly Zen Sect will be able to annex the Spring Kingdom in the future. Everything looks logical. However, cultivators with a modicum of common sense know that this is bullshit.

Still, Si Dao found it incredible. After all, something that he didn't know as a party could be fully understood by an ordinary storyteller.

On the pretext of rewarding, Si Dao checked the storyteller. There is a faint spiritual power left on the other party's body, and judging from the traces of spiritual power, it should be a charm spell. This is a very advanced technique. Si Dao was born in Hehuan, but he couldn't see any fame, and he couldn't find any clues.

Upon inquiry, the storyteller said that he had seen the story from a book and found it interesting, so he told it to others today. However, when the storyteller seriously recalled, he could not think of the name of the book. Si Dao believed that even if he went to the storyteller's house to look through it, he would not find a book that recorded the story.

Obviously, without knowing it, the storyteller is controlled and implanted in the memory of the story.

Just as Si Dao was about to inquire further, a hearty voice came into his heart: "Don't ask again, all storytellers are telling this story." ”

Si Dao looked back. In the distance, the monk who had not been seen for a long time was walking towards the post station. Along with it, Si Dao also smelled a strong smell of wine.

This time, the monk was not alone, and beside him, there was a child. Si Dao knows the child, who is the thief Ah Piao.

At that time, before leaving Yancheng, Si Dao had gone to find the thief Ah Piao. However, there was no longer half a figure in the dilapidated courtyard. Not only that, but all the food and supplies were packed and packed. Obviously, the group of children still didn't want to believe Si Dao and chose to flee.

Si Dao couldn't have imagined it. Ah Piao will actually be with the monk who quits killing. At this moment, Ah Piao is honest, like an airless balloon. Although he was very reluctant, Ah Piao always followed behind the monk who had quit killing.

When Ah Piao saw the people in the post station, he immediately shouted happily: "Save me, save me, I don't know this stinky monk." This stinky monk arrested me. ”

He shouted like this, but no one around him believed him. Because, the monk who quit killing did not tie him up at all, nor did he restrict his freedom. All of Ah Piao's actions are unfettered.

As if feeling the surprised gazes of the people around him, Ah Piao hurriedly raised his hand and shouted: "Look at me, it's not that I don't want to run, but I can't run away." ”

Saying that, Ah Piao seemed to prove it. He turned around and ran out like a fly. The strange thing is that as soon as he ran away, he ran back again, and deliberately ran in front of the monk and ran in front of everyone.

He gasped for breath and pointed to himself, "See, I can't run out, and I was caught by the monk again." ”

Then, the people around him only thought he was a fool, and no one paid attention to him at all. The crowd watched him run out and come back. From beginning to end, the monks who quit killing did not move a bit. In this way, in the eyes of outsiders, Ah Piao is not a fool, what is it? Where would anyone believe his words?

Seeing that everyone did not react, Ah Piao showed despair. He originally wanted to give up, but suddenly saw Si Dao. In his opinion, Si Dao was a good person, at least much kinder than the monk who quit killing. In addition, he had seen Si Dao's extraordinary, and immediately decided that Si Dao was his savior.

Therefore, Ah Piaofeng ran to the front of Si Dao like a wind, and kept narrating, hoping that Si Dao could save him. But soon, Ah Piao became even more desperate.

Because, the monk who quit killing sat directly opposite Si Dao and nodded gestureously with Si Dao.

"So you're in this group. After Ah Piao finished speaking, he completely gave up resistance.

Subsequently, Ah Piao ordered a bowl of noodle soup by himself, not polite at all. How can he believe that this is a kidnapped child?

After a brief inquiry, Si Dao learned that Ah Piao was still in Yancheng, but he was just a different place to hide. After that, Ah Piao met the monk who quit killing and wanted to "touch" some pocket money from the monk. Unexpectedly, he touched himself in.

The monk who quit killing thought that Ah Piao Huigen was good, so he started to accept disciples, and took Ah Piao with him in line with the principle of Buddha crossing sentient beings.

In addition, under questioning, Ah Piao had to admit that Sister Xiaoya was a fabricated character. As for Mao Mao, she has been cured by the monk who quits killing. Although it is cured, Mao Mao has only half a year to live.

Because of Maomao's matter, Ah Piao agreed to follow behind the monk who quit killing. It's just that Ah Piao couldn't stand the boring journey, so he had the idea of escaping again. However, Ah Piao found that he couldn't run at all, and he couldn't run out of the field of vision of the monk. Then, the scene just played out.

"Master of Killing Cessation, you just said that the storytellers around you are telling this story?" Si Dao shifted the topic to the main point.

"Well, near Yancheng, or in the whole of Datong, or even in the whole of Dongtu, all the storytellers are talking about the assassination of the Holy Maiden of Hehuan, as if they had agreed. Moreover...... "quit killing the monk," although the story they tell is exaggerated, it is very likely to be adapted from the truth. The day before yesterday, in the Spring Kingdom, I met people from Mofu. The disciples of Mofu said that they had indeed found Zhuang Jianze's personal belongings. It was a piece of spiritual jade, which was imprinted with Zhuang Jianze's spiritual power. ”

"Mofu?"

"Hmm. The disciples of Mofu should come to the Spring Kingdom on purpose to convey the message to Hehuan. The monk said.

"Master, have you ever heard of the 'Black Moon'?" asked Si Dao.

The storyteller's story makes no mention of the Black Moon.

"I don't know, but the organization that assassinated the Holy Maiden?"

"Exactly!" Si Dao affirmed, "Behind the spread of the news must be the Black Moon Organization. They are extremely powerful, but they are also very mysterious, and they are really terrifying. ”

"What kind of people are they, and what is their purpose?" asked the monk who had quit killing.

"I don't know. All I know is that these guys have strange numbers in their costumes. It is completely unclear how many of them there are and what their purpose is. This time, they spread the news, probably to provoke a dispute between Hehuan and Tianchan. Si Dao analyzed.

"Is it possible that all this is indeed the work of Tianzen. Behind the 'Black Moon' organization is the Heavenly Zen Sect. According to you, the Black Moon is immensely powerful. Except for the Six Great Immortal Sects, no force could possibly cultivate such a powerful organization. "The monk who quit killing put forward a conjecture. This is not an impossible conjecture.

Si Dao nodded, unable to deny this possibility. Zhuang Jianze didn't leave any good impression on Si Dao. The other party is so unscrupulous, even if it is really a Heavenly Zen Sect, Si Dao does not feel strange.

"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it first. This kind of thing has its own person in charge of the Xianmen to find a way to deal with it. We live our lives that is. ”

As he spoke, the monk took out the purple gold wine gourd, poured out a glass of wine, and placed it in front of Si Dao.

This wine is even stronger than the last time. Si Dao refused to push the wine glass back in front of the monk who had quit killing. This time, Ah Piao on the side was deeply attracted by this wine. Ah Piao's two eyes stared straight at the wine glass, and he couldn't move it anymore.

"Are you sure you don't?" asked the monk who had quit killing.

Si Dao refused again.

"Do you want to?" asked the monk who had quit killing.

Ah Piao nodded like a rattle.

"Then will you run away in the future?" the monk asked Ah Piao again.

Ah Piao shook his head vigorously.

"Unfortunately, you are not blessed now. If you want to, you must at least become a peerless master in the eyes of mortals. Otherwise, it's not good wine, it's poison. The monk shook his head regretfully. Then, in Ah Piao's eager gaze, the monk drank all the wine in the cup.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they chatted for a while. They wanted to go on the road together. But the Huanshi of Ke Sidao suddenly signaled.

An urgent mission appeared in Huanshi, and the sect asked Si Dao to return to the Hehuan Sect.
