The Monk

Chapter 847: New Year's Eve

"Well, it's already uncomfortable, dare you feel a little more uncomfortable?" Zhang Pa was too lazy to argue with the icy woman about whether the debt had been paid off, so he used a provocation to trick her into living on the main peak.

"What do you want to do?" Han Tianshi was still very cold. Zhang Pa replied: "What can I do? It's the New Year, please go and have some fun." Han Tianshi was stunned: "New Year's Eve? What New Year?" She knew what the New Year was, but she didn't know what Zhang Pa was talking about. She had been practicing for so long and had never heard of cultivators celebrating the New Year, so she had doubts.

Zhang Pa said: "New Year's Eve is New Year's Eve, what else can we celebrate? What kind of New Year can we celebrate? I see that the main peak is quite lively, so I invite you to join in the fun." "No, I don't like excitement." Han Tianshi refused.

It was really tiring to talk to the icy woman, so Zhang Pa casually asked: "Have you paid it off?" Han Tianshi replied: "No, you saved my life, how can it be so easy to pay it off?" "Then go to the main peak, when you have paid it off a little more." Zhang Pa changed his way to trick her into going up the mountain. Master Hantian thought for a moment and simply said, "Okay." He put away the tent and returned to the main peak of Tianlei Mountain with Zhang Pa.

Zhang Pa just couldn't bear to let her stay alone for the New Year, and didn't know what to say to her. After taking her back, he threw her directly to the maids, letting them make trouble as they pleased, and went to find Lin Sen to drink.

Fortunately, this time, the maids knew that Master Hantian helped Zhang Pa fight, and it was the New Year and they were in high spirits, so they didn't make things difficult for Bing Nv. Instead, they measured her size and made clothes for her. Bing Nv was annoyed, but in order to repay her gratitude, she had to swallow her temper and compromise.

How they made trouble was their business, and Zhang Pa and Lin Sen got drunk. After sobering up, Ruiyuan came to cause trouble again, stretched out his hand to him and said: "Red envelopes should be given during the New Year. After all, I am the head of a sect. I can't be so poor that I don't give anything. Uncle, please give me something so that I can give it to others." Zhang Pa sighed in his heart. This guy has completely learned to be bad. He wants things so confidently. He said angrily: "Give things during the New Year. Who can bear it once a year? Don't give it." Ruiyuan said: "You can't not give it. You didn't give it last year. You have to show some respect today." Anyway, he is blackmailing Zhang Pa. Zhang Pa had no choice but to take out five bottles of spirit wine and said, "One cup per person. High-level disciples drink directly, and low-level disciples mix with honey and juice."

"Thank you, uncle." Rui Yuan left with five bottles of wine, and said before leaving, "If it's not enough, I'll ask you again." Zhang Pa was furious: "A bottle contains at least more than a thousand pounds. Even if more than 40,000 people drink it, one or two per person is definitely more than enough. How can it be not enough?"

As soon as Rui Yuan was sent away, the fat kids squeezed in front of him and clamored for him to make some fireworks. The little fat kid said, "People set off firecrackers during the New Year in the world. There are many thunders in the sky and mountains here. We have heard enough of them. Let's not set off firecrackers and make more fireworks."

Zhang Pa's eyes widened and he said angrily, "I owe you." After all, he stayed in the house honestly for a long time, made a lot of beautiful fireworks with top-grade white jade, and called his group of disciples to give each of them fifty, which was considered a dismissal.

Two days later, the New Year was coming. More than 40,000 people from all over the mountain gathered on the main peak and made a night of noise. The instruments that the girls had learned to kill time were put to use at this time. They played and sang, and it was very lively. A group of children had fun, and fireworks flew all over the sky. In short, there was happiness everywhere. Even a cold and indifferent person like Han Tian Dashi smiled when he saw the fat baby's happy laughter.

Zhang Pa and some people stayed in the back mountain, sitting together to drink and have fun. The cold woman smiled, which scared Zhang Pa. He thought to himself that the crazy woman was a little abnormal, and he must not let anything happen.

From this day on, there were several days of continuous joy, which was considered a big New Year. Then everything returned to peace, and Tianlei Mountain returned to its past appearance. Everyone practiced what they should practice and patrolled the mountain.

After the New Year, Zhang Pa found Zhan Yun and said that he had troubled him and went to several places for him, including the Lu State Medicine House, the Qi State Dragon and Tiger Mountain, and the Warring States Yunlong Gate, to see if the people who surrounded the mountain had returned and why there had been no movement for more than two months.

There is a saying that the law does not punish the masses. More than ten sects are against Zhang Pa. He cannot destroy every sect, so he chooses a few sects that hate him the most to vent his anger. This time, he must kill some people to establish his authority.

Zhan Yun didn't care and agreed, but Bu Kong came to talk to him and blocked the two of them in the house. As soon as he entered the door, he said, "Forget it." Zhang Pa glared and said, "What do you mean forget it?" Asking Zhan Yun to find out the news would be very dangerous. Yao Mei'er, He Wang Lao Niu, Wu Yi, any one of them is not easy to deal with. Zhan Yun is missing a hand and is alone. If he is not careful, he may suffer a loss or even lose his life. But there is no suitable person in the whole mountain except Zhan Yun. He knew that Bu Kong was full of compassion, so he didn't say this. Unexpectedly, the little monk was smart and kept an eye on him all the time. As soon as he went to find Zhan Yun, Bu Kong immediately came to stop him.

Bukong said softly: "You just want to kill people to vent your anger, or even to establish your authority. When will the cycle of revenge end? If you kill them, their disciples will come to kill you. Even if they can't kill you, they will kill your disciples to vent their anger. When will this end? Anyway, after this, they won't have the courage to offend you anymore. Why don't you just forget about it?"

"Forget it?" Zhang Pa looked at Bukong for a long time, and asked slowly: "How can such a thing be forgotten?"

Bukong said: "They came to make trouble once, and countless monsters died, and more than 200 fellow disciples died, and a terrifying woman was captured by the mountain god because of this. On the other hand, Tianlei Mountain, except for the collapse of some houses, there was no other loss. Tianlei Mountain has the advantage anyway, so why can't it be forgotten?"

Before Zhang Pa could say anything, a disciple outside the sect came to report, "Master Yijie is here to ask to see you." Because of his grand battle with a woman at the foot of Tianlei Mountain, all the disciples on the mountain knew that Yijie was a friend of Tianlei Mountain. So not only did they not stop him, but several disciples led him all the way up the mountain. At this time, the disciples outside the sect were only here to speak and report the news. He had just finished speaking when the voice of the young monk rang out: "Yijie has come to visit again, please forgive me."

Zhang Pa hurried out to greet him, thinking: "Maybe he is here to persuade him again."

Sure enough, after the two parties greeted each other, Yijie said directly: "I have an unreasonable request." Zhang Pa smiled and said: "Go ahead, it's so grand, it's scary." Yi Monk said: "Two months ago, someone besieged Tianlei Mountain and was defeated. According to the temperament of cultivators, they should take revenge for their grievances, but the donor has supernatural powers and many strange beasts as helpers. There should be few people in the world who can stop the donor. If the donor is determined to take revenge regardless of the means, the killing will be great, and the other party is not one or two people, but a sect, at least Ten thousand people, it is inevitable that there will be accidental casualties when killing them. Why don't you not take revenge for the time being, so as not to harm tens of thousands of lives for your own selfishness? "

At this point, Bukong hurriedly took advantage of the opportunity to add: "If you are asked to kill, you can kill more than ten thousand people to vent your anger, can you do it? If you can't do it at that time, it's better not to do it directly."

"Why can't I do it? They offended me..." Zhang Pa argued, but Bukong interrupted him before he finished speaking and asked: "The one who offended you is the sect leader, a master like you. What grudge do so many disciples have against you? They are just following orders, but you just ignore them and kill them cruelly? Can you really bear it?"

Zhang Pa was stunned by the question. If many innocent disciples rushed up, should he kill them? Or not? After thinking for a while, he said to Yijie: "You are cuter when there are stabs on your back."

Yijie said seriously: "Not cute, I have been practicing hard for two thousand years, but I can't calm my mind. Even if the Dharma is boundless, it can't stop my killing. This is my karma, Amitabha."

Zhang Pa said he was cute just a sigh, not really thinking so. He shook his head and went back to the original topic: "No matter what, if I want to get rid of this breath, I have to kill a few people, otherwise what will Tianlei Mountain become? If I can't avenge my hatred and redress my grievances, what's the point of practicing Taoism?"

The two little monks saw that Zhang Pa was determined and knew that he couldn't change his attitude, so they stopped persuading him. They bowed and retreated together, one went back to his room to practice quietly, and the other went down the mountain to Monster Mountain.

The two monks left, Zhang Pa went out and looked up at the sky. After a long while, he said: "You don't have to go, I'll go for a walk." Zhan Yun didn't respond, looking at his broken arm for a long time without saying a word. Zhang Pa looked at the sky for a while, then asked, "What's wrong?" Zhan Yun sighed, "I was thinking, if I had spoken to you nicely at the beginning, would this hand not have been broken?" Zhang Pa smiled bitterly, "Are you reminding me that I killed a lot of people? Thinking about it this way, my hands are indeed stained with blood. What a terrible guy." After speaking, he went to the back mountain to collect the Fu Shen Snake and the black bird Suzaku, and floated down the mountain. There is no need to greet Zhan Yun again. If there is an enemy invading the mountain, Zhan Yun will do a good job. Too many instructions will be suspected of looking down on others. He did not greet Song Yunyi, Lin Sen and others. This time he went out of the mountain to kill people, so there is no need to tell them. After going down the mountain, he went straight to Lu State. He wanted to ask Yao Mei'er why she had been targeting him all the time? Zhang Pa was a little uncertain. He didn't know whether Yao Mei'er had returned home or mixed with Wu Yi and others to continue to toss Tianlei Mountain. But no matter where Yao Mei'er was, if he wanted to kill her, he had to go to the Yao family. If she dared to hide and not come out, then slaughter her. Two months ago, the mountain god suddenly appeared, frightening nearly a thousand monks from more than a dozen sects. That monster was not dead? And he walked out of the Ten Thousand Mountains. The Longhu Mountain was the most panicked. Their hatred for the sorcerers in the mountain could fill a cart of paper. Although the two tribes had a ceasefire for many years, there was no guarantee that there would be unexpected situations. For example, Tianlei Mountain did nothing, but suddenly attracted countless sects to surround the mountain. Do you dare to say that this was not an accident? So the monks of Longhu Mountain ran back home long ago and dared not have any thoughts about Zhang Pa.

Similarly, not only the monks of Longhu Mountain felt panic, but Yao Meier also felt panic. She knew what she had done very well. She had wanted to kill Zhang Pa several times and made enemies with him, but Zhang Pa let her go. However, she continued to embarrass Zhang Pa, with sneak attacks, encirclements, and group attacks. After tossing around, she didn't want to kill him, but forced the mountain god out. Yao Meier knew that this matter could not be resolved peacefully, so she went back to the mountain gate early in the morning to make arrangements.
