Shaolin monk

After Bai Mei angrily slapped his ass and left, Ling Duoduo sat on the bed alone for a long time, touched his smooth chin, and began to digest the message in Bai Mei's words just now.

First of all, what is certain is that Zen Master Xingyin didn't hurt him—at least he didn't hurt Fang Shiyu immediately after hurting him, but he didn't know where he took Fang Shiyu.

Ling Duoduo was found by Wudang disciples patrolling the mountain and brought to Zixiao Temple in the early morning this morning. When he woke up, it was already broad daylight. Judging by the sky outside, it should be noon. That is to say, Fang Shiyu at this time Maybe it has entered a state of suspended animation.

At present, what worries him the most is that there is no reliable source of news. Who knows if it is true or not based on his own guess?Although Ling Duoduo knew that Fang Shiyu was the protagonist and should be in no danger, he still couldn't help worrying. He had to be sure of his safety before he could settle down.

Just as he was thinking, he saw someone come in through the door. Ling Duoduo raised his eyes and looked over, and was surprised to find that the person who came in with a rice bowl turned out to be Li Xiaohuan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Li Xiaohuan had appeared in Putian Village at the foot of Jiulian Mountain before Shaolin was burned. Ling Duoduo originally thought that she would appear nearby and wait for an opportunity to rescue Li Bashan when Baimei burned Shaolin. Unexpectedly, Li Xiaohuan never showed up again.

He paid special attention to it, and found that when Li Xiaohuan came in and turned around to close the door, he revealed a group of Wudang disciples standing guard at the door. It seemed that there were at least seven or eight of them. Let Baimei be afraid.

Li Xiaohuan closed the door, walked over with a blank expression, knocked the white rice in his hand on the table, and said coldly: "I really don't know what the uncle thinks, since I have already caught you, why don't you kill me?" You, but want to keep you as a scourge?"

Ling Duoduo squinted his eyes, looked at her for a while, saw Li Xiaohuan glanced at the window, and then understood, it seemed that Bai Mei was not at ease with Li Xiaohuan, and specially arranged for someone to eavesdrop outside the window.

Li Xiaohuan told him a few months ago that he had fallen out with Baimei, why did he return to Zixiao Temple again?His trust in Li Xiaohuan is less than sixty, which is not a passing grade, but there is no one else he can trust in this situation, so he dipped his finger in the tea and wrote on the small table next to him, saying: "Bai Mei Didn’t kill me, didn’t I ask you to deliver food? After eating the food you delivered, I may not be able to live until tomorrow.”

Li Xiaohuan stepped forward, knocked the rice bowl on the table to the ground, saw his handwriting clearly, nodded slightly, and said: "You caused my father to be imprisoned in the Shaolin dungeon." For more than a year, do you think that I don't want to kill you? If Master Baimei didn't say that he wanted to save your dog's life, I would show my knife and kill you right now! not me!"

"It seems that you really hate me, and you smashed your job when you found a chance." Ling Duoduo narrowed his eyes and continued to write on the coffee table, seeing Li Xiaohuan nodded slightly to indicate that he had written it down, "Since you are so If I want to die, it doesn’t matter if I just drop my rice bowl, it’s better to drop the tea bowl too, it’s much easier to die of thirst than starvation.”

Li Xiaohuan immediately flipped the teacup onto the tea table, rushed to wipe away the writing on it, and screamed: "If you fall, you will fall, don't you think I dare not?"

As soon as this sentence was uttered, the door of the room was opened at once, and several Wudang disciples rushed in and bound Li Xiaohuan's arms, persuading him: "Senior sister, calm down, don't be impulsive, the master said you can't hurt Li Xiaohuan. his!"

The conflict here has just shown signs of escalation, and this group of people rushed in immediately, which shows that the surveillance is very strict.Ling Duoduo already understood what Li Xiaohuan wanted to imply to him, and said calmly: "It seems that Bai Mei still doesn't trust you enough, and he also knows that you are not mentally normal."

Li Xiaohuan was dragged away by several Wudang disciples, and the door was closed again. Ling Duoduo lay down on the bed again, closed his eyes and raised the corners of his lips to snort softly.

Of course he wouldn't trust Li Xiaohuan completely, the rest of the Wudang faction were dead, Baimei drove Li Xiaohuan down Wudang Mountain earlier because Li Xiaohuan pleaded for Shaolin, Baimei was sure that this person was not worthy of trust, so why did he send Li Xiaohuan to give it to him? He delivered the food, and sent a few other disciples to monitor Li Xiaohuan in such a troublesome way?

Ling Duoduo speculated that Bai Mei sent Li Xiaohuan in to contact him, probably hoping to use Li Xiaohuan to extract useful information from him. Tell Baimei the number.

Even so, Ling Duoduo still felt that Li Xiaohuan had a certain degree of credibility, so he just set up a game to test Li Xiaohuan's credibility.

Ling Duoduo just dipped in the tea on the coffee table and wrote a short prescription, telling Li Xiaohuan that he needed these Chinese herbal medicines to recover his martial arts, and hoped that Li Xiaohuan could find a way to get them for him.

——This is of course used to bluff people. Ling Duoduo has not yet fully understood the reason why he can't bring out his internal strength, but it doesn't prevent him from taking this opportunity to see Li Xiaohuan's reaction.

Bai Mei was willing to lock him up in Wudang Zixiao Temple, because he mistakenly thought that his martial arts had been abolished by the experts at the foot of the mountain, and Bai Mei was still very afraid of his martial arts. If Li Xiaohuan told him the truth, I'm afraid I can't get the relevant Chinese medicine.

Bai Mei knew the importance of letting him recover his martial arts, and Li Xiaohuan naturally knew that if the other party was willing to help him conceal such an important matter and help him, it would at least prove that Li Xiaohuan had considerable credibility, and Ling Duoduo could just ask She helped to inquire about Fang Shiyu's news.

Of course, it doesn't matter if Li Xiaohuan tells Baimei everything, Ling Duoduo can also use her to pass some specious news to confuse Baimei's sight.

It was impossible for Fang Shiyu to be taken far away from Wudang Mountain by Zen Master Xingyin. If he could use Li Xiaohuan to hold Baimei's gaze firmly, it would be considered a contribution.

————————————————————————————————————————

Bai Mei raised his eyelids and looked coldly at Li Xiaohuan standing in front of her, first kicked away a Wudang disciple who was helping her comb her eyebrows, then stroked her eyebrows and asked, "I want you to inquire about the three rituals The tone of the little monk, why did you quarrel with him?"

Li Xiaohuan lowered his head and said: "I have failed my master's expectations... As soon as I saw Sanli, I immediately remembered Fang Shiyu's ugly face. If he and Fang Shiyu hadn't obstructed me back then, my father would have repaid me The revenge is over, why have you dragged it on until now?"

Bai Mei didn't want to believe this kind of rhetoric, and couldn't help but sneer and said: "This is strange, why didn't you see that you were concerned about your father being captured by Shaolin and that Leihuo's revenge could not be avenged, and you were so focused on pleading for mercy for those evil people in Shaolin? ?”

"At that time, I couldn't see San Li and Fang Shiyu, and I was confused by Ling Xiaoxiao's rhetoric, which annoyed my uncle—now I have fully realized my mistake, and asked my uncle to give me another chance! "When Li Xiaohuan spoke, an expression of unstoppable resentment appeared on his face, and he tightly clenched both of his hands.

Bai Mei guessed that her expression didn't look like she was lying, but she still couldn't let go, and warned solemnly: "Don't forget, your father is still in my hands, although he didn't do anything to make me unhappy, But if your daughter does something stupid, this seat will not let him go either!"

Bai Mei had seen that Ling Duoduo's mouth couldn't be pried open before, so he had no other choice, so he asked people to bring Li Bashan and his daughter here, hoping to use Li Xiaohuan to get information from Ling Duoduo.

Li Xiaohuan frowned as if in embarrassment, hesitated for a long time, and then said cautiously: "Master, you also know that the three rituals are the most scheming, and the disciple just expressed malice to him, how can he still trust him?" I?"

As soon as he mentioned this, Bai Mei became furious, pointed at Li Xiaohuan and scolded: "You still have the face to say this? This seat asked you to talk to him, but you are so stupid that you quarreled with him, your brains were blown. Eat it into the dog's stomach?!"

Speaking of the latter part, the more he talked, the more annoyed he became, he directly raised his leg, kicked Li Xiaohuan's belly, kicked him back a few steps, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Li Xiaohuan wiped the corners of his mouth, and said quickly: "Master, when I see him again, I can use this to tell him that I am under surveillance, and that I treated him like that last time was just to cover up people's eyes and ears. Do you trust me more?"

Bai Mei was obviously stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then felt that it made sense, and then thought again, he just scolded Li Xiaohuan for being eaten by a dog, if he immediately changed his words and praised her, it would be slapping himself, so he said : "I don't care what method you use, in short, ask me a question, and find out who has abolished his martial arts!"

"Yes, Master, this disciple must live up to Master's expectations." After Li Xiaohuan finished speaking, seeing that Bai Mei still had doubts about him, he pretended to hesitate, "Master, then my father..."

Li Bashan was pinched by Baimei, it was Baimei who was willing to put a certain trust in Li Xiaohuan, and when she saw her asking, she took the opportunity to warn: "My eyes are sharp, don't try to play tricks, After clarifying this seat's question, this seat will naturally let your father go!"

Li Xiaohuan's eyes turned red when he heard this: "Master, my life is short-lived. I lost my mother when I was young and my husband in middle age. Now I only depend on my father. Please treat my father well, Mr. Xiaohuan. I will repay you with all my heart." Uncle!"

Li Bashan is Baimei's bargaining chip, Baimei is naturally happy to see Li Xiaohuan take his father seriously, the more Li Xiaohuan values ​​Li Bashan, the higher the value of the bargaining chip in his hand.

Thinking of this, a not-so-obvious expression of complacency appeared on his face, and he said in his mouth: "I have been a brother and sister with your uncle for decades, and he has done nothing wrong to make me unhappy—as for you As a daughter, although I was fascinated by ghosts some time ago, I don’t bother to argue with you. Since you heard the news that I rescued your father from the Shaolin donkey, you went to Wudang Mountain again, which is considered sincere Changed."

You have to give a sweet date when you hit a mallet, and you have to give someone some benefits, so that the other party is willing to do things for you, Bai Mei softened his tone and said: "Xiaohuan, you can be regarded as the one who grew up watching you, and you are usually ignorant , I won’t really care about you one by one, let’s just say, as long as you help me get things done this time, the previous things, my lord, have a lot of things, so I will treat it as if it didn’t happen.”

Li Xiaohuan showed a look of gratitude, and thanked Fang with great gratitude. Fang came out of Baimei's room, and glanced at the few Wudang disciples guarding the door outside, the cold light in his eyes flickered away.

————————————————————————————————————————

It took Li Xiaohuan three days to provide Ling Duoduo with all the common Chinese herbal medicines that he wrote down that day.

This person is quite cautious, every time he hides one of the herbal medicines close to his body, so that even if he is searched by Wudang disciples, he can explain it.The herbs she brings each time are also very small, and the same herb needs to be carried twice to bring the full amount.

In the past two days, Li Xiaohuan said to Ling Duoduo according to what Xiang Baimei said that he wanted to help him. Write and draw and tell Ling Duoduo the real situation.

This is a bit interesting, unexpectedly, the world of good martial arts would have scenes of Infernal Affairs and Mission: Impossible, Ling Duoduo secretly smiled in his heart, and on the surface he cooperated with Li Xiaohuan to carry out this good show.

After checking Li Xiaohuan's credibility to a certain extent, he provided Li Xiaohuan with some plausible false news to confuse Baimei, and at the same time wrote by hand, asking Li Xiaohuan what happened in Wudang during this period.

Li Xiaohuan wrote and replied: [On the day when Baimei burned the forest, I met Xiaoxiao at the foot of the mountain. She said that she was going to leave here to seek refuge in Guangdong. The only person I took care of and sent her was Hu Huigan. I was worried, so I went with her A trip to Guangdong. ] From this point of view, this Li Xiaohuan is really infatuated with his sister. Ling Duoduo doubted the credibility of this sentence, and asked: [But you already knew that Baimei was going to Shaolin at that time, aren't you afraid of your father? Did something happen? 】【Shaolin will not hurt my father, neither will Baimei. ] Li Xiaohuan wrote.

Ling Duoduo stared at Wei Wei for a moment, it was quite right to say that, more or less there was something about Li Bashan in Baimei Shaolin as an introduction, and with the brotherhood of more than ten years, he would not kill Li Bashan for no reason, As for Shaolin, it’s even worse. People have been imprisoned in their own dungeons for more than a year. The most senior person is one of the four great elders of Shaolin, and other idlers can't enjoy this kind of treatment, which is better than the children of cadres who are in prison.

Li Xiaohuan continued to write: [After sending Xiaoxiao back to Jiulian Mountain, I heard the news that the Shaolin Temple was set on fire. I continued to inquire and learned that my father followed Baimei back to Wudang Mountain, so I had no choice but to return to Wudang Mountain. 】Ling Duoduo has a general understanding and grasp of Bai Mei's character, and asked: 【You offended Bai Mei earlier, and he is a very grudge person. After you come back, I'm afraid life will be difficult, right? 】Li Xiaohuan nodded: 【Baimei no longer trusts me, and even refuses to trust my father. I heard from my father that he had already bid farewell to Baimei and wanted to go down the mountain to find me. I can't find any other reason to take me down Wudang Mountain, so I can only make do and live first. ] With such an explanation, Ling Duoduo feels that the credibility has increased a lot, but it does not rule out the possibility that Li Xiaohuan has already thought up the rhetoric to fool himself, and tentatively wrote: [Bai Mei asked you to come because I want to know from me What? 】【The person who hurt you. ] Mentioning this, Li Xiaohuan glanced out the window, 【I have been looking for you for three days, but I have been giving him some scraps of information, and he is already a little anxious. 】That's true, if you don't see a rabbit, you don't scatter the eagle. If Bai Mei sees that Li Xiaohuan's repeated visits have no effect, it is hard to guarantee that he will not doubt it.Ling Duoduo was not worried that Bai Mei would guess the identity of Zen Master Xingyin. Everyone in the world thought that Zen Master Xingyin had returned to the west as early as 15 years ago.

He didn't mind giving Li Xiaohuan some clues to stabilize Baimei, so he wrote: [That tall man is a ghost that Shiyu provoked in a certain small village Yizhuang. 】Li Xiaohuan was taken aback for a moment, and wrote: 【Can you change your rhetoric?Even I don't believe such a statement, let alone Baimei? 】Silly girl, this is the truth, I didn't expect you to not believe it.Ling Duoduo shrugged his shoulders: [It's true, that ghost followed Shiyu all the way to our hiding place, and then followed all the way to the bottom of Wudang Mountain.As soon as Shiyu and I arrived at Wudang Mountain that night, we saw him rushing out, hit me like a madman, and disabled my martial arts. 】Thinking about it carefully, it's no wonder that Li Xiaohuan didn't believe it. Ling Duoduo reckoned that if he hadn't seen Zen Master Xingyin floating out like a ghost at night, he would have found it hard to believe it.

After watching it, Li Xiaohuan was silent for a while, then shook his head: 【Even if it is true, I don't think Bai Mei will believe it. 】【Why don't you believe it?He is the head of a Taoist priest, and his professional job is to catch ghosts. Does he not believe that there are ghosts in the world? ] Ling Duoduo smiled.

It's easy to say that he is an atheist time traveler, but if Baimei is a Wudang Taoist, if he doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, then he is a bit sorry for his profession.

You already believe in gods, why don't you believe in ghosts?This thing is just like God and the devil. If you believe in the existence of God, you must firmly believe that there are devils in the world.

Li Xiaohuan twitched the corners of his lips, and slid his hand over the table for a long time, as if hesitating what to say, after a long time, he wrote: [Then, do you think Fang Shiyu is still alive? 】Ling Duoduo withdrew his smile, turned his head to look at the corner of the wall, heaved a long sigh, his fingers trembled for a while, and then drew a stroke very slowly: 【I have never dared to think about this question...】 Li Xiaohuan saw that he was halfway through writing, two His arms were trembling and he couldn't write any more. He pondered for a while, and gestured: [During this time, no disciple has reported finding Fang Shiyu's body, maybe he is still alive. 】Although that is what he said, Li Xiaohuan also does not think that Fang Shiyu can still live with good luck. After all, he has never heard of a person who can be fat for nothing when he is with ghosts. Only the "ghost" crippled his martial arts, so many days have passed, I'm afraid Fang Shiyu is also in danger.

As for not being able to find the corpse, that would be a better explanation, maybe he was swallowed by a ghost to feed his hunger, so naturally no one was alive but no dead body was seen.

Seeing that Ling Duoduo's eyes were flushed, she was clearly feeling extremely uncomfortable, and she couldn't help but regret bringing up this point, and quickly tried to change the subject: [How is your martial arts recovery? 】She has already brought all the medicines for Ling Duoduo, but she hasn't seen Ling Duoduo do anything in the past few days. Li Xiaohuan felt strange, but she never asked.

Speaking of martial arts, Ling Duoduo has vaguely figured out in the past three days that his martial arts were indeed not abolished by someone, but that his acupoints were sealed with strange techniques.

In the past few days, he has also tried to break through the acupuncture points. Although he has not succeeded, he can feel the existence of the internal energy in his body again. Muscles are normal.

He found out that something was wrong, and when he recalled the fierce internal force transmitted along the palm of his hand when Zen Master Xingyin attacked him three days ago, he vaguely understood it.

However, he would not tell the truth to Li Xiaohuan about these things, and he had to be very cautious in these extraordinary times. If Li Xiaohuan really wanted to help him, it would be a big deal to apologize sincerely afterwards.

So Ling Duoduo wrote calmly: [I tried secretly avoiding Wudang disciples, but unfortunately it didn't work, maybe the method was wrong, or the effect was late. 】He paused for a while, and heard someone outside urging Li Xiaohuan to leave as soon as possible, and quickly wrote: 【Can you help me see if there is a new grave nearby? 】It's really not easy for Baimei to let him leave the Wudang faction at this time of year, Li Xiaohuan hesitated for a while, but nodded, expressing that he is willing to give it a try.

She came out of Ling Duoduo's room, and as expected, she was immediately brought to Baimei's room. As soon as Li Xiaohuan stepped in, she heard Baimei anxiously asking: "How is it? Any news?"

Li Xiaohuan shook his head, and seeing Baimei thumping the wall angrily, he felt quite strange: "Uncle, although such a powerful person came out from the foot of Wudang Mountain, but there has been no news from him for so many days, why are you treating him like this?" fear?"

Bai Mei stroked his eyebrows, and said in a deep voice: "What do you know? I don't know why these days, but I always have an extremely ominous premonition. This seat will never allow anyone to threaten my position as the number one in the world!"

"Uncle, don't be so anxious. In fact, that Sanli already believed me. He even asked me to go down the mountain today to inform the Shaolin remnants who came with him!" Li Xiaohuan laughed, "I already know where they are hiding. , take advantage of this opportunity, Master Master can wipe out those Shaolin remnants!"

As soon as this sentence was finished, Bai Mei flew into a rage, and slapped her hard with her backhand, cursing: "I see that you are fascinated by lard, and you are immersed in the hatred between you and Shaolin all day long, and you can't get out of it." Come on! What I want to do most now is to find out who the master in the dark is. If you want to kill all the people in Shaolin, I don’t need you to go to such great lengths to tell that three-gift message!”

Li Xiaohuan only felt that half of his face was numb, and his mind was stunned for a while, and then he said with a look of panic: "Yes, yes, this disciple deserves to die, please forgive me!"

Bai Mei touched his palm, and said coldly: "Idiot like you, I don't bother to waste my words with you, you just go down the mountain to find those Shaolin remnants, and explain clearly what Sanli wants you to convey, It’s best to take back the handwritten letters of those people, so that you can show Sanli that you have done what he told you.”

Li Xiaohuan suggested: "Uncle, then do you think it is necessary to bring more people there, and when the disciples take the handwriting, they will kill all the remaining evils of Shaolin?"

This is a good way to kill two birds with one stone. Bai Mei was quite moved, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was wrong: "No, what if you still want to pass on the news after the three rituals? You may not be able to gain his trust if you send a letter once. This little monk is very tricky, not easy to fool."

Li Xiaohuan quickly responded: "Uncle Master is thoughtful, many disciples are not as good as it."

How can you compare this seat with an idiot like you?Bai Mei squinted at her with disdain, and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, it's settled like this, you go down the mountain this afternoon by yourself, you must use this to gain Sanli's trust!"

A few retreated as advances, and their ultimate goal was achieved. There are always idiots in the world who feel that they are extremely smart. Li Xiaohuan deeply understood this truth at this time, and replied: "Yes, master, the disciple understands." .”
