Chapter 265: Bodhi Flower Tea

Zhu Mo coughed dryly before he slowly spoke: "Master of Cold Ice, in fact, you know the identity of those assassins, but you have to spare such a big circle and involve so many people, I don't know what your real intentions are?"

"Hah, I don't care about anything, I just know that if anyone wants to kill me, I'll kill him first!"

With a disdainful sneer, Han Bing said with an arrogant expression: "Zheng Yong's dog eunuch wants to borrow the emperor's hand to kill me, so I will also borrow the emperor's hand to get rid of him!

When Zhu Mo heard this, he couldn't help frowning, thinking that this kid was too arrogant and presumptuous, and he dared to say such disrespectful words in front of his own guard commander. It seems that he thinks he has eaten himself, so he has no scruples.

"Even if it can be proved in the end that it was Zheng Yong who privately transferred the Ouchi guards, I am afraid that the emperor will not delve too deeply into this matter. And you want to use this to bring down Zheng Yong's idea, it's too naïve!"

Although Zhu Mo's words were not polite, they were completely true. Because he didn't want to make any more detours with Han Bing at this time, he just wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible, and then go back to the palace to settle accounts with Zheng Yong's old thing!

Who knew that Han Bing, the ghost boy, seemed to have seen through his thoughts, and even smiled strangely at him, and said: "With my own strength, I really can't defeat that dog eunuch who is used to clever words and curry favor with the emperor." But isn't there still a Commander-in-Chief?"

"Me?"

Zhu Mo was stunned, and then sneered, "The abacus of the cold ice boy is really loud!, but why do you think that Zhu will help you deal with Zheng Yong?"

Han Bing shook his head with a smile, "I'm afraid Commander Zhu has misunderstood! I didn't say that I want you to help deal with Zheng Yong." Instead, you need to use my strength to help you deal with Zheng Yong!"

"I need you—help?"

Zhu Mo smiled in disbelief, only to feel that this kid was trying to deceive himself again.

"That's good!" Han Bing nodded very seriously.

"Then tell me, why do I want to deal with Zheng Yong?" asked Zhu Mo with a disdainful face.

"For the sake of Dayu!"

Han Bing glanced at him solemnly, "Zheng Yong sent these inner guards to break into Jishi Temple, not to kill me, but to kill Master Huinian, the purpose is to snatch the Qiankun key in his hand." And why did Zheng Yong snatch the key, Commander Zhu shouldn't be unable to guess the reason, right?"

Hearing Han Bing's words, Zhu Mo suddenly stayed there.

Because from the beginning, all he knew was that Han Bing killed those Ouchi guards. Therefore, he has always taken it for granted that the target of those Ouchi guards to assassinate is cold ice.

But now that they think about it, if they really want to kill Han Bing, they can choose to kill in any place where it is easy to start, and they should not commit murder in front of Abbot Huinian in this extremely sensitive place of Jishi Temple.

If the emperor wants to kill Han Bing, he will only ambush people outside Jishi Temple. Because the Protector Temple is related to the safety of Dayu Jiangshan, the emperor will never take any risks for this.

And Zheng Yong did this, it was indeed sinister!

Could it be that behind him is not King Ji, but someone else?

What kind of people would covet the wealth of the country, and even intend to threaten the Protector Pillar?

Most likely, it's the northerners!

"In fact, from the very beginning, I can explain this matter to Commander Zhu. But at that time, you and I were not clear about our respective positions, and I guess that with the prudence of the Commander-in-Chief, I would not easily believe my words.

That's why I wanted the Commander to witness it in person and have an interview with Abbot Huinian. Only by seeing with your own eyes and hearing with your own ears will you believe that this amazing conspiracy has actually happened!

And as the Zhu family, who has guarded the throne of the Dayu Emperor for generations, how will you make a choice?

Will you continue to obey the orders of His Majesty the Emperor, who has been deceived and manipulated by Zheng Yong, and use the power in your hands to deal with me? Or will you abandon your past grievances, put aside your prejudices, and work with me to eradicate Zheng Yong, a national thief?"

In fact, Zhu Mo didn't have to think about it at all, he already knew clearly how he should choose.

No matter what the intentions of the father and son are, at least they don't have the idea of destroying Dayu Jiangshan.

Otherwise, Abbot Huinian, who was in charge of guarding the Protector Pillar, would never have trusted Han Bing so much, and even allowed him to enter and leave Jishi Temple at will.

And Zheng Yong——, what is the idea of this traitorous eunuch, but it must be carefully investigated.

Thinking of this, Zhu Mo arched his hand to Han Bing and said, "Han Bing Gongzi, Zhu is very willing to listen to you and tell you what happened in this Jishi Temple the night before." ”

Han Bing suddenly laughed and said, "What's so difficult about this? Why don't we go to Abbot Huinian's meditation room later, because the incident happened there, and Quan will think that it is me, the murderer, to identify the scene again!"

Zhu Mo couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

It's also strange to say that at this moment, when he looks at the words and deeds of this kid Han Bing, he suddenly has no disgust in the slightest, but there is a kind of intelligence, wisdom and flexibility everywhere.

At this time, the monk had already turned around and brought back a message from the abbot of Huinian, asking Commander Zhu and the prince of Han Bing to meet in the abbot's meditation room.

So, Zhu Mo and Han Bing went to the abbot's meditation room behind with the monk Zhike.

And the two heads of Jingzhao Mansion were led by another monk in the temple and went to the guest hall next to them to drink tea and eat vegetarian food.

After Abbot Huinian greeted each other with Zhu Mo and Han Bing, he invited them to sit down.

Without waiting for Zhu Mo to ask, Abbot Huinian opened his mouth in a slow tone.

This master didn't have many words, but he clearly told Zhu Mo two things-

First, Han Bing is the third-generation successor of the Qiankey designated by Master Huijue, the former abbot of Jishi Temple.

Second, the Assassins on the eve had not been lured into the temple, let alone inadvertently. Instead, long before the cold ice arrived, they had infiltrated in batches and ambushed outside the abbot's meditation room.

Knowing these two things, Zhu Mo no longer had any doubts about what Han Bing said to him before. Moreover, he finally figured out the relationship between Han Bing and Abbot Huinian and even the entire Jishi Temple.

It's just that at the same time, another difficult question inevitably arises in his heart-

Since the emperor knew that Han Bing was the successor of the key responsible for guarding the pillar of the god of protection, why would he still listen to Zheng Yong's words and put Han Bing to death?

For the statement that Han Bing is a hermit, it can be regarded as groundless. Such an old painting of unknown origin does not prove anything at all.

But why does the emperor seem to be convinced of this?

Would he rather believe the words of a vengeful old eunuch than the wisdom of the abbot Huijue, a disciple of the Yin Kingdom Master?

Or is there another hidden meaning in this, the emperor wants to kill Han Bing, which has nothing to do with his identity at all?

With more doubts and incomprehension, Zhu Mo couldn't help but turn his gaze to the young man who was becoming more and more mysterious in his eyes.

While Abbot Huinian was talking to Zhu Mo, Han Bing had been sitting there quietly drinking tea. Soon, the pot of tea was drunk by him.

At this moment, he found that Zhu Mo was looking at him, he first drank the last sip of tea left in the cup, and then said with a smile: "The flower tea in this Protector Temple is really cooler than the fragrant tea in the Xiangfu, and it is more relieving of the heat." ”

Master Hui Nian smiled slightly when he heard this, and said: "This tea is made from the stamen of a thousand-year-old Bodhi tree growing in the temple, and it does have the effect of relieving heat and removing poison. ”

Zhu Mo couldn't help but move in his heart when he heard this, he had long heard that the Bodhi tea in Jishi Temple was a unique in the world, and it was said to be able to cure all kinds of poisons.

It's a pity that the thousand-year-old Bodhi tree doesn't bloom every year, and the flowers are scarce, so this tea is extremely difficult to obtain, and even His Majesty the Emperor can't guarantee that it will be drunk once a year.

I didn't expect that the tea contained in this coarse porcelain teapot at this moment, with a slightly bitter fragrance to drink, turned out to be the Bodhi flower tea that is extremely difficult for people in the world to have a taste!

Thinking of this, Zhu Mo looked at the empty teapot that had been drunk by the cold kid, and he was really annoyed-

Such a rare and good tea, I only drank one cup!

While secretly annoyed, he hurriedly drank the remaining half of the tea in his cup, and then stood up with Han Bing.

I saw Han Bing clasp his palms together, bowed deeply to Abbot Hui Nian, and said, "Thank you, Master Abbot!

He naturally understood that this pot of Bodhi tea was specially prepared for him by Abbot Huinian.

It seems that Abbot Huinian already knew that he had been poisoned by the heavens, so he did not hesitate to take out the Bodhi tea treasured in the temple to detoxify him.

Although even this thousand-year-old treasure can't cure the world's first strange poison, it still has the effect of delaying the toxicity.

And for this enthusiastic abbot master, Han Bing really has a deep feeling in his heart.

Abbot Huinian also clasped his palms together and bowed, "Amitabha, Ji people have their own heavenly appearance." I believe that the old man and the benefactor will meet again one day!"

When Han Bing heard this, he immediately laughed, remembering that this was exactly what Master Huinian said to him before parting in the secret room of the Xiuyun Sword Sect.

"Master Abbot rest assured, on the day when the third generation of Emperor Dayu appears, he will come to open the door of the underworld with the master in the next meeting, and witness the foundation of the pillar of the protector god into the ground, and from then on the Dayu country will be forever!"

Abbot Huinian looked at Han Bing deeply and nodded slowly.
