Chapter 200 Seeds of Doubt

Under the guidance of Fachan's magic, Fajing said a lot.

Of course, all of this was quietly implanted by the smoker...

For the sake of "revenge", he had long since secretly established connections with the major sects outside, hoping to find an opportunity to kill the three senior monks of the Yuan generation.

Recently, he has collected the secrets of many techniques and martial arts of the Fanyin Temple, and is looking for opportunities to pass them on so that people from large sects outside can easily detect the flaws of the monks when they attack in the future.

More than a month passed, and he was left with only the most advanced secret manuals such as the Blood Sea Robe Skill and the Ming Wang Sword.

So after knowing that Zhou Qing was learning Ming Wang Sword from Fa Nu, he became aware of the opportunity to steal the Ming Wang Sword secrets, and then cause chaos, allowing someone to enter the Sutra Library and steal all the advanced skills.

So without anyone knowing, he hired a large group of people to cause trouble, preparing for a big event.

Today he sneaked into the Sutra Library to provide cover for the intruder... When the incident happened at the temple gate, he was the last one to leave, and the intruder was already in the Sutra Library at that time.

As for their accomplices... of course they are all outside the temple. They are not inside the temple, and their skills have not yet been spread out.

The rest of the details are scattered, but that's basically it.

The monks were sweating on their foreheads as they listened, but not many of them really listened to Fajing's description of these details.

Looking at their eyes, they were all still stuck on the previous sentence...

"I'm afraid these three people are also the murderers of many of you!"

The trial started off well but ended badly. By the end, not many people were really listening. Even Fa Chan, who was casting the spell, felt a little uneasy.

After the spell was removed, Fa Jing woke up as if from a dream, horrified: "What did I say?!"

The eighth realm warrior Fa Ming waved his hand and said, "Drag him away."

"It's not me! Everything I just said is not true!"

Fajing let out a heart-wrenching roar, but no one paid any attention to him. Several monks tied him up tightly and dragged him out of the main hall like a pig.

As his cries of grievance faded away, the hall fell into a terrible silence.

After an unknown amount of time, Fa Nu waved his hand in annoyance.

"Alright, alright, everyone go away. Anyone who has nothing to do should go to the temple gate and pack up."

He strode over, and when he passed by Fu Qingzhou, he let out a muffled breath: "Zhou Qing, come with me."

Fu Qingzhou responded and followed.

When leaving the hall, his eyes met with Li Qing's.

Li Qing, supported by other lay disciples, walked towards the disciple room. He turned his head and looked over, his eyes full of admiration.

Fu Qingzhou smiled at him but said nothing.

He followed Fanu, left the hall, and walked towards the courtyard where Fanu lived, without saying a word along the way.

"Brother Fa Nu..."

After walking for a while, Fu Qingzhou slowly said, "Today..."

"I will interrogate you today, please don't mind." Fa Nu said calmly: "You were too suspicious at that time, so it was normal to suspect you."

Fu Qingzhou smiled bitterly: "It's nothing, just find the real traitor, then others can't get in."

"Ah."

Fanu seemed to be troubled: "Let's talk about it in the courtyard."

Fu Qingzhou followed behind him with a barely perceptible smile on his face.

The seeds of doubt... have been planted.

After entering the courtyard, Fanu did not teach sword skills anymore, but sat down at the foot of the stairs, looking deep in thought.

Fu Qingzhou looked very honest. He went into the house, poured a glass of water and handed it to Fanu.

After drinking the water, Fa Nu coughed a few times, then said in a hoarse voice: "You know, half of my illness is caused by my eagerness to achieve success in my cultivation, and the other half is the sequelae of being poisoned by my enemies." Fu Qingzhou had already guessed it, but of course he still pretended to be at a loss: "Brother, have you been poisoned?"

"Well... that was before I entered the temple."

Fa Nu said in a deep voice: "I was originally just a fishmonger in Lihua County. When I was young, I had a bad temper and offended many people. I also made many enemies because I fought with others for stalls at the market..."

"I understand this." Fu Qingzhou sat down next to him and said with a smile, "I used to be a butcher, and I always had to compete with others for the stall."

"Yes."

Fa Nu said quietly, "In the past ten years, I have always wondered if I had restrained myself a little back then, would they have survived?"

He slowly told his story - of course, Fu Qingzhou had already read this story in Zhao Hao's information.

His enemies poisoned him and killed his entire family. Later, Yuan Wu appeared and gave him an elixir and a set of skills, which opened up his martial arts and helped him avenge his blood feud.

Fu Qingzhou listened and asked slowly: "Brother, you didn't listen to Fa Jing's words and felt..."

Fanu said nothing, but remained silent.

"But isn't Fajing a traitor?"

Fu Qingzhou asked tentatively: "Can you believe what he said?"

"Zhou Qing, you don't understand magic." Fa Nu shook his head and said, "Under Senior Brother Fa Chan's magic, Fa Jing has no chance to lie."

The smoker's smug laughter rang in Fu Qingzhou's mind.

"You also lived in Lihua County for a few years..."

Fanu continued, "I calculated the time. It seems that you were there when I left my hometown. Isn't that right?"

Fu Qingzhou scratched his head: "What year was that?"

"Nine years of Qianhao." Fanu glanced at him and said, "Ten years ago."

"Eh?"

Fu Qingzhou was stunned: "That seems to be true. Ten years ago... ten years ago was my last year there!"

"Yeah." Fanu whispered, "My whole family was killed back then, and it must have caused quite a stir in the county. Do you remember anything?"

"what……"

Fu Qingzhou scratched his head: "Brother, let me think about it."

He pretended to think for a long time before he slapped his thigh and said, "I remember now! Senior Brother! Didn't my uncle cure you of poison back then?!"

Fa Nu forced out an ugly smile: "Yes, Doctor Fan treated the poison for me. Although he failed to cure it, he kept me alive and held on until... the master arrived."

"Yes, yes!" Fu Qingzhou's eyes lit up: "I remember that my uncle came back to the clinic that day and sighed and said it was a tragic case. I'm afraid he was talking about your family matter, Senior Brother!"

Fa Nu nodded slightly: "So do you know anything about this case?"

"This one……"

Fu Qingzhou scratched his head again.

He really wanted to make up something, like he saw a monk roaming around the town before the crime happened, but that happened ten years ago after all, and the words were very specific, so it would be hard to gain credibility if he said them.

After thinking for a moment, he murmured, "I really have no impression of this."

Faru sighed.

Unexpectedly, Fu Qingzhou continued, "But my uncle should still be there. There are only so many people in Lihua County. Brother, if you really care, I will write a letter and send it to him, asking him to help find someone to ask?"

Fa Nu's eyes lit up again: "Is it okay?"

"This shouldn't be difficult, right?" Fu Qingzhou said, "Although the temple is closed now, we can still go out to buy things, right? Brother, if you are worried that I will write something wrong, why don't you watch me write it and then watch me mail it out? That will be all, right?"

Hearing him say this, Fa Nu finally smiled: "Okay, let's do it!"
