Who among the gangsters wants to fall in love?

Chapter 73 Bloodstained Buddhist Temple (Part )
Phoenix Mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist.

Luo Chaoyan was weak, and it was already dusk when he climbed up the mountain.

Inside the temple, people coming and going are either monks holding scriptures or pilgrims with their families burning incense and worshiping Buddha. Although there are many people, it is not noisy.

Zhao Wumian followed the little nun up the steps leading to Mount Wutai, thinking that although it was dark and cloudy in Xiaoxitian, but now seeing it with his own eyes, he felt that this place was worthy of being the Buddhist holy land of the Dali Dynasty.

Glancing to the side, there is a breeze in the mountains and snow everywhere. In the dusk, the paleness reveals a bit of redness. The houses of Xiaoxitian are faintly visible between the mountains and forests, and every inch of the place is covered with thin snow. Looking up, you can see the stars in the dusk in the distance, and this place is so close to the sky, it seems as if the stars are slowly falling in the dusk.

In a trance, Zhao Wumian felt that he was far away from the court and the martial arts world just by staying here. All he saw was coldness and tranquility... Guan Yunshu grew up here and could be so vicious, cruel and inhuman. He must have grown up crooked.

Wutai Peak is located on the northwest side of Phoenix Mountain. After climbing up some steps, Luo Chaoyan, exhausted and panting, finally reached his destination.

The houses are scattered in a fir forest. The treetops and eaves are covered with snow, standing out particularly clearly above the snow, like an isolated little village... It seems that the hospitality of Xiaoxitian is really good, and all the houses with good views are given to guests to stay in.

The little nun walked in the front, but she was still complaining to Zhao Wumian and Luo Chaoyan about how bad these distinguished guests were. However, thanks to this, Zhao Wumian also understood Xiao Xitian's attitude towards this group of people... These guys came with bad intentions, and everyone in Xiao Xitian knew about it. The disciples were extremely dissatisfied with them, but the higher-ups had not figured out a solution yet. They had been holding meetings for several days. Guan Yunshu was dragged to the main hall to discuss as soon as he came back...

Zhao Wumian came here to catch the spy hiding in Xiao Xitian. This person must be related to the force that poisoned the prince, but Xiao Xitian is now in such a precarious situation... and it’s good enough that it doesn’t hinder Zhao Wumian by catching the spy.

He shook his head slightly. "One of the three major sects can be forced into such an embarrassing state by a group of outsiders. The disciples can't even support them when they are angry... It's really strange. If there is any hypocritical or hot-tempered person among these Buddhists, can they still endure such humiliation? Do they really think that everyone has a Buddha's heart? Everyone is compassionate? Are they still human?"

The little nun blinked her eyes. She was not angry at her own sect being scolded. Instead, she clenched her fists and punched forward a few times, saying with great momentum, "That's right, but now that Senior Sister Guan is back, the good days of these guys are over! I hope Senior Sister Guan doesn't beat them to a pulp and support the thunder and moon!"

"Supporting the thunder and splitting the moon?" Zhao Wumian looked down at the little nun, a little surprised, "Where did you learn this curse word?"

Luo Chaoyan's eyes were filled with confusion. Was "chongting lieyue" an insult? She had never heard of it.

The little nun blinked her eyes, looked up and said innocently, "The picture book that Senior Sister reads seems to be called 'The Nun's Romance Illustrated Edition'. I flipped through it secretly. The hero and heroine are always fighting, but the painting is very good. It's just that the nun in the book is always naked when fighting with the men, and she always cries when she is beaten. When she cries, she says 'I can't stand it anymore, I can't stand it anymore, you are giving me the Thunder and the Moon again!'"

Luo Chaoyan understood now, and her face suddenly turned red. She couldn't believe it, "Miss Guan is still reading this kind of book?"

Zhao Wumian recalled the things that happened between him and the nun in the brothel. It didn’t seem like it… but it was even more exciting.

"It's not Sister Guan, it's another sister." The little nun explained patiently.

Zhao Wumian was greatly disappointed.

"Ahem... Great! Little Master has brought another guest to Mount Wutai. Can you introduce them to me?"

Suddenly, a voice came from the side. A middle-aged man in a white robe and fox fur cape, holding a black sheathed long sword in his arms, stood behind a tree on the side of the stairs. He took two steps to the side, revealing his figure. His temperament was cold, but unfortunately he was holding an old little book in his hand. From the gap between his palms, one could see the word "Secret History" in the title...

Zhao Wumian did not seem surprised. This man had not concealed his breath and had been reading pornographic books behind the tree. Now that he showed up, it was obvious that he had heard the "Illustrated Edition of the Erotic History of a Nun".

That’s great! This should be the Buddhist name of this little nun.

"Who is this?" Zhao Wumian looked at the little nun.

"The leader of the Jianzong branch in Pingyang went up the mountain with that group of distinguished guests a few days ago. He seemed to be calling... " The little nun frowned and thought for a while. The wretched uncle who was reading the pornographic book took a few steps forward and said, "I am Chu Changdong..."

After a brief introduction, he turned his gaze to the little nun without waiting for Zhao Wumian and Luo Chaoyan to respond, "I wonder if you can elaborate on the "Nun's Romance" that the little master just mentioned?"

Luo Chaoyan was originally somewhat cautious about the Sword Sect's leader who suddenly appeared. After all, Zhao Wumian had a Sword Sect sword order, so this leader should be considered one of their own...but why did he end up being like this, uh... disgusting.

"What are you talking about?" The little nun didn't understand.

Chu Changdong directly took out a black fruit from his arms, "I brought a specialty from Yanyun, a large frozen pear, which can only be made under ice and snow. It is not available anywhere else. I spent a lot of energy to preserve this pear with my icy inner breath. There is only one in Pingyang... Can I use it to exchange for the "Nun's Romance" that Master stole for me?"

Luo Chaoyan felt that this person was even more unreliable.

"You used your own inner energy to preserve the pear?" The little nun's eyes showed some disgust, "How disgusting." Chu Changdong's movements of handing over the frozen pear froze slightly, and then he silently took it back into his arms, coughed lightly and pretended nothing happened. He was about to retreat back under the tree to continue reading the pornographic book, but Zhao Wumian stopped him, "Brother Chu, wait a minute."

"Huh?" Chu Changdong felt disgusted by being scolded and was in a bad mood. He was even a little impatient when being called. He frowned and looked back, only to see Zhao Wumian directly taking out a sword-shaped token with eight big characters written on it: 'Yanyun Qingqing, this sword is here'.

Without waiting for a reaction, he instinctively knelt down with a thud. The force was so great that the snow under his knees was blown up into the air. The unique book in his hand fell to the ground, and he finally saw the name of the book - "Secret History of the Harem".

Luo Chaoyan's eyes twitched.

Chu Changdong looked at Zhao Wumian in astonishment, "Mu, Sword Master Mu's personal token!? Who are you!?"

"Do all warriors from Yanyun like to kneel so much?" Zhao Wumian looked helpless. "I am Master Mu's new disciple. My last name is Su."

"Master Mu's new disciple!? That little ancestor actually... ahem..." Chu Changdong quickly got up, picked up the Secret History of the Harem and presented it with both hands, with a look of pain on his face, "This is our first meeting, it was too hasty, and I don't have a gift. This book cost me thousands of taels to get it, and now I'm giving it to Master Su. I wonder why Master Su is here?"

The Sword Sect is divided into several lineages, and each lineage has a unique inheritance of magic weapons and martial arts. The one who wields the magic weapon is the Sword Master, and his status is extremely high, basically second only to the Sect Master.

Zhao Wumian was about to reach out and take "Secret History of the Harem" to see how the pornographic books in this world develop. If the text is dry and weak, and the plot is empty and boring, then maybe he can take the pen name "Sanhao Zhaosheng" and write pornographic novels to make money. Then, an extremely sharp gaze shot from behind, and he felt like a thorn in his back. He silently changed his gesture from "take" to "wave".

"No need for a greeting gift... What happened in Xiaoxitian recently? Brother Chu, tell me in detail."

Luo Chaoyan nodded with satisfaction. Zhao Wumian was indeed different from other men.

Chu Changdong looked slightly pleased, stuffed the Secret History of the Harem into his arms, and then pointed at Wutai Peak with the corner of his mouth.
"About ten days ago, there were rumors that Xiao Xitian had obtained the second Nine Bells, so I came here to test the waters. I learned that Xiao Xitian was indeed wronged. Even the people on Mount Wutai were still dreaming of forcing Xiao Xitian to release the Pearl Relics Treasure Tower. I thought Xiao Xitian would be able to get rid of them easily, but it has been delayed until now..."

Ten days ago... At that time, Zhao Wumian was probably infected with the Cold Jade Gu not long ago, and was fighting with others, and had not yet died outside Qinfeng Village...

"They were the ones who spread the rumors?"

"It's a bit possible, but not very likely." Chu Changdong shook his head slightly.

"There are only two people worth mentioning here, Taoist Lingxu and Northern Spear Ye Wancang. These two came here because they reached a bottleneck and had no hope of breaking through...

...But they have been in Xiao Xitian for three months, and Xiao Xitian has always treated them kindly, so they thought that these few days would not be a big deal. But Taoist Lingxu recently heard that Xiao Xitian had obtained the second Nine Bells, and he was very anxious. He went to urge Xiao Xitian whenever he had time, and even called a lot of friends to put pressure on Xiao Xitian. If he is not dealt with, this matter will not be resolved, but I have not found any evidence that he spread the rumor. "

The little nun was so nice that she nodded repeatedly and said crisply, "I brought him food, and he asked me to ask the abbot on his behalf. He was so fierce."

Chu Changdong pinched his chin and recalled a little, then said:
“As for the other so-called Jianghu celebrities, most of them are descendants of aristocratic families or leaders of small sects. They are indeed somewhat famous and have a high status in Jianghu, but they are nothing compared to the three major sects and six major clans. However, only our Sword Sect has come from the nine major sects. Other sects did not send anyone. I guess they heard from the rumors and went back.”

"Then what are you still doing here?"

Chu Changdong smiled and pointed his sword sheath at the towering glazed tower. "I was sent to Pingyang ten years ago. At that time, an enemy came to poison me. I was fine, but my wife was poisoned. She didn't know martial arts and didn't have the internal energy to suppress the poison. She would have died within an hour. I didn't have time to find an antidote... It was Master Dongwen who didn't care about the difference between the sects and used the Nine Bells to save her life... Although I am the leader of the Sword Sect branch, how can I not repay the favor?"

The favor done ten years ago is still remembered today. It seems that Chu Changdong is also a man of affection and righteousness.

But Chu Changdong had been investigating in Wutai Peak for such a long time but still couldn't find out who spread the rumor, so Zhao Wumian guessed that it was the work of spies from Xiaoxitian.

Since this group of martial artists were provoked by spies, the current situation is obviously that he is enjoying the results and doing it on purpose, so ruining their good deeds will naturally be beneficial to Zhao Wumian.

Thinking of this, Zhao Wumian put his hand on the hilt of the knife and walked towards Wutai Peak along the stone steps... After talking with Chu Changdong, he had realized that he could not get any useful information from these guys.

There is no need to be polite when dealing with these guys who are not much different from thugs.

Just throw them all down the mountain one by one.

As the master, Xiao Xitian cannot take action... As a wandering knight who uses a pseudonym when he goes out, can't he just come and cause trouble?
