Xuanxia

Chapter 142 It’s over
On the way back to Meifeng City, Fu Qingzhou kept thinking about Zuo Lamei's words.

"Even if I destroy the Fanyin Temple, I can't hurt the Jinchan Temple at all?"

He murmured, "Why is this happening?"

The jade pendant on his waist swayed gently, and the smoker's smug laughter rang in his mind: "Although you are smart, you have seen too few dirty things~"

Fu Qingzhou raised his eyebrows slightly: "Then tell me?"

"Isn't this simple?"

The smoker said in a show-off manner: "The old woman said that there is an even bigger backer behind the Jinchan Temple. Didn't Ning Baimei also say that in the letter he wrote to you before? Most of the concubines in the harem are pilgrims to the temple, which indicates that the backer of the Jinchan Temple is the imperial court - or at least a powerful force in the imperial court."

"Whether it's the Ziqi Xianfeng Temple or the Wulin League, they are just martial arts forces at best. Even if they have people from the imperial court behind them, at most they can only compete with the Jinchan Temple."

"Even if you destroy the Fanyin Temple, they can never break off relations with the Jinchan Temple, nor do they have the ability to destroy the Jinchan Temple immediately. They must maintain a superficial peaceful relationship..."

At this point, Fu Qingzhou had already understood.

He laughed dryly: "By then, I, the guy who jumps the highest and makes the most noise, might become the target of surgery?"

"That's right~" the smoker exclaimed.

"That's not right." Fu Qingzhou responded in his mind: "In this matter, Qiu Chan and Brother Wu are both participants. Qiu Chan has the sect behind her, and Brother Wu also has a good father, so I'm not bad either! After all, I'm also the successor of Wuwei Temple!"

"It's useless!"

The smoker snorted, "Does Qingsongzi dare to come down the mountain? Can he stand up for you? Before, those big sects seemed to want to rob you and treat you well, but now you are not their disciple. If you really get into trouble, do you expect them to help you?"

“Fu boy, get this straight. It’s ok for you to occasionally use the names of Long Dabei and Qingsongzi to bully others, but if something really happens, you can only rely on yourself… no, you can only rely on me!”

Although Fu Qingzhou was very disdainful of its last sentence, he had to admit that its inference about Wuwei Temple, Qingsongzi, and other sects was correct.

"But Fu boy, there is something I need to tell you."

The smoker said calmly, "That old woman said that if you want to survive in the underworld, you must make yourself valuable... I would say that these are all excuses for the weak!"

Fu Qingzhou raised his eyebrows slightly.

"She is at the ninth level of the spiritual realm and hasn't even entered the cave heaven. She may seem like a senior, but compared to the truly powerful people at her level, she is extremely weak. Of course, she has to be very careful and tread carefully."

The smoker sneered, "If you ask me, as long as you are strong and tough enough, you don't have to be afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind! As long as everyone in this world trembles when hearing your name, who dares to attack you? Who dares to touch you!"

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said nothing.

The man has his own reasons and the woman has her own reasons. If you ask him, they both make sense.

People are floating in the rivers and lakes, how can they not be knifed?

Zuo Lamei's experience is the way to survive. There is nothing wrong with being a little tolerant. As the saying goes, the righteous will have many helpers. Having more friends around you and more backers behind you will make things much easier.

Although the path of the smoker is not suitable for everyone, it is the real smooth road. As long as you are good enough, no one dares to mess with you - there is no simpler and more correct truth in the world than this.

Fu Qingzhou stopped talking and thought silently.

He is determined to destroy the Fanyin Temple. As for what to do after that, he will talk about it when the time comes.

big deal...

At worst, he can just go back to Langhuan Mountain and hide for a few years.

At sunset, he rushed back to Meifeng City.

As soon as he entered the city, he found that the spirit of the people in the city was different.

The hawking sounds from street vendors are loud and enthusiastic, pedestrians are chatting and laughing, the night market has just opened, and the hot smoke from the stoves of roadside vendors is floating all over the sky, making it difficult to open your eyes, but it is also a hot smell of fireworks.

"It turns out that working for a shady boss and making money for yourself are not the same thing."

Fu Qingzhou smiled in his heart.

What the common people want is actually very simple, to have food and drink, and to be free from illness and disaster. Walking along the long street where Ding Shuanghe had knelt, there were many pedestrians, talking and laughing along the way. Fu Qingzhou listened carefully and roughly knew what had happened in the past three days.

In fact, it is quite simple. Almost all of Kuaijianmen’s industries have returned to the hands of the people of Meifeng City.

The shop owners were no longer employees. In order to show their difference from the former Ding Shuanghe and to compete with their peers, in just three days, prices were lowered and the workers' wages increased significantly.

Even the large compound of Kuaijianmen has been divided into several parts. Now the workers are demolishing the compound in full swing. The only thing that truly belongs to Kuaijianmen is the innermost small compound. The rest of the land will be divided out and given to other businessmen for other uses.

When Fu Qingzhou arrived at the gate of the former Kuaijianmen compound, he saw only broken bricks and stones on the ground.

The workers who were demolishing the yard also finished their work...

He walked in over the stone ridges, passed by the courtyard that had been torn into pieces, and after walking for a while, he saw the new "Kuaijianmen Gate".

The huge stone lions and the tall gates that once seemed so majestic are of course gone, leaving only an ordinary courtyard gate with a simple plaque hanging on it, with the three words "Kuaijianmen" written in ink, and the ink seems not to have dried yet.

There was no disciple guarding the door. When I pushed the door open, I didn't see many people. I could only hear some faint voices in the yard.

"anyone there?"

Fu Qingzhou asked loudly.

Footsteps were soon heard in the yard, and then a man wrapped in bandages and leaning on crutches walked out.

"Wei Yunsheng? Brother Wei?" Fu Qingzhou recognized him at the first sight.

Wei Yunsheng was stunned for a moment, then after carefully looking at him for a few times, he suddenly realized something: "Yes, yes, it's you!"

Then he immediately understood something: "The young man that the master was talking about is you!"

Fu Qingzhou scratched his head and smiled: "I am here to look for Sect Leader Ding, is he here?"

"Yes, yes, yes."

Wei Yunsheng quickly smiled and said, "Young Master Fu, please come in."

Seeing that he was struggling to walk, Fu Qingzhou stepped forward and supported him: "Don't call me young hero, we have known each other for several years. Just call me brother."

"Haha, you're too polite." Wei Yunsheng smiled a little awkwardly, but still followed suit: "Brother Fu is indeed not an ordinary person. With one move, he saved Sect Leader Ding from a great difficulty."

"Little things, little things."

Fu Qingzhou asked: "I see there are not many people in your sect. Where did they go?"

"After the head of the sect sold off the land and property, many people left."

Wei Yunsheng's face darkened as he said, "Many people came here just to eat and drink for free, and some even came to learn how to do business. After the incident, the headmaster asked those who didn't want to stay to leave on their own, and most of them left the next day."

"Some of my fellow brothers and sisters are now out on business, and many of the handovers of their businesses cannot be completed in two or three days... Only I and a few other brothers who were seriously injured are left in the sect."

The two were walking and talking when they suddenly saw a man walking out from the side of the yard. He looked refreshed and energetic. Who else could it be but Ding Shuanghe?
He was holding a long sword in his hand and sweating profusely, looking like he had just practiced martial arts.

"Head!"

Wei Yunsheng's eyes lit up and he shouted, "Young Master Fu is here!"

Ding Shuanghe was startled, and followed the voice, his eyes stopping on Fu Qingzhou.

The next second, he threw away his sword and rushed forward, then bent his knees and slid steadily to his knees in front of Fu Qingzhou.

Fu Qingzhou: “!!!”

Wei Yunsheng was so frightened that he threw away his crutches and jumped to the side.

"My benefactor!"

Ding Shuanghe kowtowed with great skill: "Please accept my greetings!"
