However, at this time, Li Hui pretended to be an ordinary scholar in green shirts, and naturally he would not easily reveal his whereabouts, and he had secretly observed with his divine sense, there was no trace of spiritual power fluctuations on these monks, and in the land of Liangzhou, Buddhism prevailed, and this place was far away from the West Night City, and these monks should not be the monks of the Maha Temple.

So Li Hui pretended to be a passer-by and stood aside to watch the imposing guards drive a group of monks towards the outside of the city.

The monks all had sad faces and recited the Buddha's name, while the guards who escorted them were all fierce and vicious, waving leather whips in their hands, and kept scolding and scolding.

"Old bald donkey, hurry up!"

An old monk who looked like he was in his sixtieth year, walked a little slower, and was immediately whipped heavily by a loud leather whip, the gray monk's robe on the old monk's back was instantly torn, a long crack was revealed on his back, and his body staggered and fell forward.

"Master!"

Several young monks next to him let out a cry of grief and hurriedly hugged the old monk.

"You demons will definitely be punished!" said the young monk angrily.

Li Hui, who was watching in the crowd, shrank his pupils slightly, and the killing machine collapsed, if it weren't for the fact that the situation was still unknown at this moment, and it was in this mortal city, he would have made a move a long time ago.

"Hmph, you bald donkeys, you actually obstruct the order of the county guard, and want to harm all the people in this city, I think you will go to hell!" the sergeant snorted.

Li Hui's heart moved, and he continued to watch quietly, listening to the sergeant's words, there seemed to be something strange in them.

"Good, how can there be a way to sacrifice boys and girls to get rid of the plague in this world, the county guard was bewitched by the demon and did this act of hurting the heavens, we wait for the monks to be merciful, how can we sit idly by, and hope that the county guard can be lost and return, as for the plague, the old monk has sent his disciples to the Maha Temple to ask the monk to come to the rescue, and must not do that act that hurts the heavens and harms reason!" The old monk struggled to stand up with the support of his disciples, and persuaded the sergeant.

Sacrifice of virgins and virgins to get rid of the plague? Li Hui's heart was shocked, and the first thing that came to mind was that the demonic monk was playing behind his back. Cultivators naturally know that plagues are just some contagious diseases, and what they need is good prescriptions and medicines, and what kind of boys and girls are sacrificed and so on, usually some monks with bad hearts are secretly doing it.

Not to mention this year?? This year, Jing Qingping, the wind and rain are smooth, how can there be any plague outbreak, I am afraid that everything is done by demon monks behind the scenes.

Li Hui roughly guessed that there was a demon monk behind it, but he couldn't think of a specific reason, so he was not in a hurry to make a move at the moment, and continued to watch.

Hearing the old monk mention the Maha Temple, a trace of awe flashed on the sergeant's face, the virtue of the senior monk of the Mahasi Temple spread far and wide, and the prestige spread all over Liangzhou, even these sergeants did not dare to blaspheme in their hearts.

But then the sergeant's face turned pale: "The county guard has invited the immortals to do the trick to eliminate the plague, and now most of the plague has been contained, only a hundred boys and girls are required to sacrifice, and the wrath of heaven can be completely calmed, but you thieves and bald asses are untrustworthy and have angered the immortals, you really deserve to die!"

"What nonsense, hurry up!" said a leading sergeant with a meaty face on a horse in front of him, turning his head and rebuking fiercely.

"Let's go, let's go!"

A group of sergeants drove the monks to speed up their pace towards the outside of the city.

Li Hui already had some guesses in his heart at this time, and he thought that there must be a demon monk secretly doing it, first spreading the plague, and then pretending to be an immortal to come forward to eliminate the plague, the real purpose is probably to sacrifice the boy and girl.

He didn't move his expression at the moment, but he secretly used his divine sense to lock this line of sergeants, as long as he was within a radius of 100 miles, he couldn't escape Li Hui's detection.

"Hmm!" Li Hui's face moved, and he turned his head to look in the northwest direction of this city: "There are cultivators in this city, and there are quite a few of them, I'm afraid these guys are doing ghosts." ”

At this time, he went all out to investigate his divine sense, and Li Hui immediately found that in a huge mansion in the northwest of this city, there were more than a dozen cultivators, but their cultivation was not high, and the highest one was only in the foundation building period, and the rest were in the qi refining period.

"It's better to find a chance to save these monks first, since I have received the great favor of Yundui's predecessors, I have a fate with Buddhism, and it is not good to ignore it. Li Hui had already made up his mind, and suddenly his body moved, like a gust of wind, towards the outside of the city.

The mortals in those cities didn't notice it, they only felt that a gust of wind suddenly rose on the flat ground, and then quickly subsided, and no one noticed Li Hui leaving.

At this time, the sergeants had driven the monks out of the city, and outside the city was a wasteland, and the sergeants drove the monks to walk for miles, but it was a mass grave.

"Captain, why don't you let these monks go. A sergeant walked up to the meaty sergeant on horseback and probed the tunnel.

The captain's face twitched: "Let them go, Lord County Guard ordered them all to be killed, why do you want to disobey the order?"

"But...... But monks have always been respected in this city, and even if these monks say something wrong, they won't be guilty of death, right?" the sergeant's face was full of hesitation.

"Hmph! Lao Tzu never believed in these crooked bald donkeys, who only ate food and did not pay taxes, this time it was just to get rid of it, and confiscate the property accumulated by the old monks in the temple, don't talk nonsense, do it!" The captain with a full face flashed a trace of greed in his eyes, and then turned to ruthlessness and ordered viciously.

He didn't know that on a white cloud above his head, Li Hui was looking down coldly, taking in his every move.

"This sergeant leader is so ruthless, he just wants to kill these monks and take the temple property for himself, I am afraid that he is also a scum of the common people on weekdays. ”

Although Li Hui is not interested in these mundane things in the mortal world, today's matter involves the demon cultivators behind him, not to mention that he has a lot of connections with Buddhism, and he has already had a plan in his heart.

When the monks heard that the soldiers were going to kill them all, they changed color slightly, but they quickly calmed down and recited the scriptures under the guidance of the old monk.

"Kill all these bald donkeys!" ordered the head of the sergeant, who was full of flesh.

There were few responders, and the vast majority of the sergeants showed hesitation. Most of the people in Liangdi believe in Buddhism, and they are quite worried about asking these soldiers to kill monks.

"Do it all to Lao Tzu!, otherwise go back and let the county guard punish the crime of disobedience!" the captain shouted.

These people hesitated for a moment, and finally their hearts were crossed, and they picked up the weapons in their hands, and they were about to attack the monks.

"Hmph, don't you dare to kill and kill, aren't you afraid that the Bodhisattva will blame you and go to hell after death?"

Suddenly, there was a cold rebuke in the air.

"Who is it?"

The sergeants below immediately became alert, hula, and formed a circle back to back, looking around in disbelief.

A trace of doubt flashed on the face of the sergeant leader with a full face, and he looked around, but he didn't find anything, thinking that some passing Jianghu ranger was pretending to be a ghost.

"Pretend to be a ghost and give Lao Tzu ......"

The sergeant's leader only uttered half a sentence before he came to an abrupt end, and a golden light flashed in the sky, circling around the sergeant and vanishing.

All the sergeants looked back in astonishment, but saw a scene that they will never forget, their captain's eyes widened and his mouth still slightly open, as if he was about to open his mouth to curse, and the expression on his face was frozen for that moment, and then a head fell from his neck and rolled on the ground.

"If you speak falsely, you will be disrespectful to the immortals, and you should be killed!" another cold cry came from the sky.

When the sergeants on the ground heard this, they looked up at the sky in fear, threw away their weapons one by one, and knelt down.

"The immortal spares his life, we didn't mean to offend. ”

"We were all ordered by the county guard, and we didn't mean to offend the immortals. ”

Sergeants fell to their knees and begged for mercy.

Li Hui appeared from the clouds and walked down step by step in the void, as if he had come down from the heavens of the Nine Heavens.

When the sergeants saw this, they no longer had the slightest doubt, and one by one they knelt on the ground and bowed, regretting it in their hearts.

The monks escaped death and were overjoyed to see Li Hui descending from the sky, reciting the Buddha's name one by one to welcome the immortals.

As a Jindan monk, Li Hui deserves the title of immortal in front of these mortals, and he killed the sergeant captain just to deter these sergeants.

"Why do you want to harm these masters, and don't recruit them from the truth?" Li Hui was suspended in the air several feet above everyone's heads, ignoring the underground people, and said coldly.

"The immortal forgives the sin, we are on the orders of the county guard, and we are really forced to do so. ”

"Qi Shangxian, only because of the outbreak of plague in the city, the county guard wanted to recruit boys and girls to sacrifice to the heavens and disasters, these masters gave advice, which angered the county guard. ”

......

These sergeants kowtowed and begged for mercy, competing to tell the reason for the incident, and what they said was not far from Li Hui's guess.

It turned out that a plague broke out in this city a month ago, hundreds of people were infected, their whole bodies were black and rotten and died, and when the county guard was at a loss, an immortal came, with a dozen disciples, cast a spell to curb the spread of the plague.

The immortal then told the county guard that this was a punishment from heaven, and that only by offering a hundred pairs of boys and girls could the wrath of heaven be appeased.

When the county guard saw that this "immortal" had shown a few magical powers, he was naturally convinced, and ordered the whole city to collect boys and girls to make offerings, and begged the immortals to do the same.

As a result, he was dissuaded by the monks in the Jiming Temple in the city, saying that this move would hurt the peace of the heavens, and he was willing to go to the Maha Temple to ask the monks to come to the rescue, hoping to let those boys and girls go.

The "immortal" said that it was precisely because people here only believed in monks and Buddhas and did not respect heaven that there was this disaster, so that the county guard destroyed the Buddha and eliminated these monks, which led to these later things.

"You offended the Buddha, the original sin is unforgivable, but remember your ignorance, temporarily exempt from responsibility, and reflect on it after you go back, if you do such things again, you will be punished by God!" Li Hui made a posture of an immortal and scolded those soldiers.

These sergeants were just mortals, and the real evildoers were the demon cultivators hiding behind them, and Li Hui didn't bother to punish them, waving his hand to tell them to get out.

The sergeants were resigned, and repeatedly thanked the immortals for their grace of not killing, and then crawled back to the city.

Li Hui then fell to the ground and turned to the frightened monks.

"Amitabha, thank you for your rescue. The old monk who took the lead was quite knowledgeable, and came over to thank Li Hui.

Li Hui didn't care, the Maha Temple is a holy place for Buddhism, and it is not unusual for these monks to know the existence of cultivators, so they appeased the old monk at the moment, gave the old monk some healing pills, and then set up a sword light and walked towards the mansion in the city where monks had been found to be haunted.
