Chapter 39
When Xue Qing pricked up his ears and waited intently for more information, there was silence outside the screen.
It was silent again.
Fa Hai did not answer.
After a while, Nian Ci broke the silence.
"Speaking of which, I shouldn't bother my junior brother that day, and I didn't expect such an accident to happen."
Nian Ci lowered his eyes, showing self-blame and remorse on his face.
"It's the first time I've seen my junior brother look so anxious... I think my junior brother has a deep affection for Miss Xue."
That day, a hole was torn open in the barrier of Lingyin Temple.
But Xue Qing, who was supposed to be in the room, was nowhere to be found.
They all guessed whether a demon had sneaked into Lingyin Temple and kidnapped Miss Xue.
But fortunately, Young Master Qu later sent them a letter saying that Xue Qing had been found and was recuperating at home.
"Junior brother agreed to come together today after hearing that Young Master Qu will come, right?"
Facing Nian Ci's question, Fa Hai just nodded his head lightly, his brows were distant, as if the person in Nian Ci's words was not himself.
"There is no need to talk about the past."
"He's fine."
Fa Hai seemed unwilling to continue this topic.
Fa Hai is worthy of being a topic stopper, always looking like a dull gourd who can't make a sound with eight poles.
Xue Qing, who was eavesdropping behind a screen, commented.
Slow footsteps sounded, it was Nian Chi who paced back and forth twice.
"I'm just surprised...that monster sneaked into the temple in a grand manner.
After all, the monks of our Lingyin Temple are not good at cultivation, so we need to practice more. "
Nian Ci said.
Fa Hai was noncommittal.
It seems to stay out of it, these have nothing to do with him.
Only the few words that Nian Ci mentioned at the beginning made his eyes move, but they also disappeared in a flash.
"What do you think, junior brother, about the matter outside the white members?"
Seeing that Fa Hai was unmoved by the previous topic, Nian Ci got to the point.
Bai Yuanwai invited people from all walks of life to this banquet, and Lingyin Temple was also on the invitation list.
Speaking of white members, the most legendary should be his experience of getting rich.
The Bai family is an upstart in recent years, and I don't know how Master Bai got lucky and made a fortune when he was nearly fifty or sixty years old.
Originally, Bai Zhengqing's family property can be considered rich, but after his parents passed away, he also ate, drank and gambled all day long, gradually ruining the family property originally accumulated by his parents, and even mortgaged his original residence to the gambling house.
The whole family lived on the street like this, with nowhere to go.
It was a former friend who couldn't stand it anymore and lent his house to Bai Yuanwai's family.
His wife reconciled with Bai Zhengqing and left him after giving birth to her second child because he couldn't stand his idleness all day long.
Everyone in the county did not know this street slut who had been idle for most of his life, and when he mentioned it, he just sighed as if he was watching the excitement.
Poor and destitute, there are two sons waiting to be fed.
At this moment, Bai Zhengqing, who was almost middle-aged, became enlightened one day and said that he was going to do some work.
He packed his things and left.
But after going there for four or five days, there was no news.
Everyone in the county was wondering if he just ran away, leaving his two sons behind.
Judging from Bai Zhengqing's previous actions, this possibility is not impossible.
Five days, six days.
Bai Zhengqing still didn't come back.
Everyone was rumoring that Bai Zhengqing had left his two sons and fled. However, on such a sudden day, the bereaved dog returned with piles of gold, silver and jewels.
In a flash, he became a local tycoon who is as rich as an enemy country.
And all these earth-shaking changes seemed to happen overnight.
The lost dog has become a rich man who wears gold and silver.
And built the now magnificent White House in Wolong County.
I don't know what kind of business this white member is doing, but he can sit on a mountain and eat nothing until now, and there is no sign of decline.
"His face is full of evil spirits, and there is no cure."
suffocating?
Is it the black air lingering outside the white staff that he saw in front of him?
Xue Qing recalled seeing the appearance of this legendary white member at the garden banquet. Although he looked at him kindly and kindly, the black air on his face made this kind smile strange.
Why do white members have these so-called "evil spirits" on the outside?
Xue Qing was thinking about it when Nian Ci said, "Saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Since we are here, we should also save Bai Yuanwai's life."
"People who have committed serious crimes cannot be saved even with the help of the True Buddha."
Nian Ci's words only got a cold response from Fa Hai.
Although Fahai and Nianci are both monks of Lingyin Temple.
The way of thinking is completely different.
Like ordinary monks, Nianci talked about "benevolence, righteousness and morality" and upheld the concept of "compassion".
But Fahai acted clearly, he obviously had a benevolent face, and he should have sentient beings in his heart, but sentient beings had never really entered those phoenix eyes.
All that prompted him to act was because of the word responsibility.
Hearing Fa Hai's answer, Nian Ci pondered for a moment.
"However, I still feel that there are still many strange things in this place. Please ask my junior brother to help me investigate."
There are many strange things in the White Mansion alone, and the White House should be far from being as simple as it seems on the surface.
Fa Hai responded, but did not refuse.
Nian Ci's trip is actually to seek Fa Hai's help when the time comes. Although Fa Hai is his younger brother, his skill is superior to him.
After all, not everyone is born with Buddha bones and pure yang skills.
Nian Ci lowered her eyes, hiding a little bit of self-mockery in them.
"Then I'll leave first, and see what this white member does tomorrow."
Nian Chi turned and left.
Xue Qing breathed a sigh of relief, he always felt nervous for no reason when there was this third person in the room.
But at this moment, he heard Nian Ci's voice approaching him.
"Ok?"
"This screen..."
Nian Ci's voice suddenly approached, as if there was only a screen away from him.
It was like talking in Xue Qing's ear.
Could it be that Nian Ci had already discovered him?
Xue Qing shrank behind the screen, and couldn't help curling up her fingertips to grab the clothes.
He held his breath, and in an instant, he could almost hear his nervous heartbeat.
Like beating a drum, it was so powerful that it even broke through his chest.
"what happened?"
Fa Hai also seemed to come over.
Nian Ci took a closer look at the screen, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.
Looking at Fa Hai who walked by his side at some time, he said gently: "I just think the screen pattern is very beautiful."
"Since that's the case, I won't bother my junior."
Then there was the sound of the door closing.
Nianci should go, right?
Xue Qing held his breath, tentatively sticking his head out from the side of the screen.
Then he met the phoenix-eyed monk standing outside the screen.
Fahai stood quietly outside the screen, like a silent bamboo with snow falling.
It was cold and silent.
Obviously, it should be a golden lacquered Buddha statue full of compassion for the salvation of all living beings.
But those eyes are always indifferent, not thinking of sentient beings.
However, at this moment, his gaze fell on the person protruding from behind the screen.
With a little softness that he didn't realize himself.
It's like ice and snow melted into a little rippling spring water.
But after a while, it was frozen again.
Facing Shang Fahai's gaze, Xue Qing subconsciously raised the corners of his lips, showing a polite smile.
Xingyan's eyes narrowed along with this smile.
But just as the corners of his mouth were raised, he thought of what Fa Hai said before.
We won't meet again after this time, if we meet again, it must be a meeting of swords.
The corners of Xue Qing's mouth dropped again.
The sweet smile in the corner of his eyes also disappeared.
At this moment, the originally calm mood sank like a lead weight.
In fact, it is not particularly sad.
Coming from another world, he was already a wandering person.
There are not many people Xue Qing can know and accept in this world.
He just regrets.
I feel sorry for him and Fahai.
If there is no such original sin-like transvestite.
Xue Qing and Fa Hai may become a pair of friends.
He walked out slowly from behind the screen.
The air was still still.
It was so quiet that Xue Qing seemed to be able to hear the dull sigh in his heart.
As soon as his hand touched the door frame, he heard the voice of someone behind him.
"and many more."
Xue Qing paused and clenched his hands for no reason.
He couldn't guess what Fahai had to say.
For a moment his spine tensed.
Countless possibilities, good and bad, flashed through my mind.
The bad thing is that Fahai suddenly regretted it, and decided to kill the monster now.
The good thing is that Fa Hai still regretted it. He felt that there was no barrier between the monsters, so he wanted to hold his hand and continue to be friends with him.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help being amused by his strange idea.
On the contrary, the possibility of the front is more likely.
But no matter what, Xue Qing already had a way to deal with it.
He was still holding on to the elixir that Xue Bai gave him to improve his cultivation for a short time before. If there was any abnormality, Xue Qing also had a way to escape.
Xue Qing turned her head, her almond eyes met Fa Hai.
There was no fear in Qing Lingling's eyes, nor anything else.
There is only one piece that is clean and clear from beginning to end.
"Your poison has not been cured yet."
Fahai said.
This was beyond Xue Qing's expectation. His fingertips holding the door frame trembled, and they touched the door frame with a soft sound.
If Fahai hadn't said anything, he would have almost forgotten the insidiousness in his body.
Although it was only five days for Fa Hai, it has been five years for Xue Qing.
Everything has the feeling of suddenly seeing an old friend again.
It is true that there was still a bit of the black snake's insidious poison on Xue Qing's body before. The incident happened suddenly at that time, and he left the day before the detoxification was completed, which resulted in the insidious poison not being completely detoxified.
But with the improvement of Xue Qing's cultivation base, there is nothing to fear from the almost insidious nature of this point.
Although Xue Qing couldn't dispel it with his own magic power, but like the magic power left in Fa Hai's body before, this insidious poison lived in a corner and did not interfere with each other.
"nothing."
Xue Qing politely declined Fa Hai's offer.
Now that there is the previous sentence, all this is no longer necessary.
He and Fa Hai should have nothing to do with each other.
What's more...how can he face Fa Hai calmly and open his inner palace now?
Xue Qing didn't look back to look at the sea, opened the door and walked out.
When the door was closed, Fa Hai's eyes looking over were also blocked along with the gap.
"Crack—" The door closed.
