My God, I am the emperor, the lord of mankind.

Chapter 213 White Lotus disappears
"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Houcong and Wang Zuo looked at each other.

They all saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

After all, Faneng never mentioned a word about zombies in his letter.

"Don't worry... As a member of the government, I have always been disciplined and law-abiding in my life."

Zhu Houcong looked at the little novice in front of him who kindly reminded him, and assured him seriously.

After all, if Zhu Houcong didn't like any part of the Ming Code, he would just ask the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy to work with the officials of the Three Laws Department to modify it directly.

Although Zhu Houcong would probably never do this, in theory Zhu Houcong has this right.

Zhu Houcong said that as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he completely inherited the good habits developed by the Ming Taizu who were enlightened by the Buddha in Huangjue Temple.

The monks do not lie.

If you say that you will be slaughtered this year, you will never delay it until next year.

Hearing the promise, the little monk breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at Zhu Houcong's face, which looked about the same size as his own, and finally took a look in the direction of the nunnery. He still didn't tell Zhu Houcong that if he was bored at night, he could discuss Buddhism with the singing girls raised in the nunnery.

The little novice monk vaguely felt that compared to those officials and businessmen, the two Zhu Houcong in front of them did not like those happy Zen methods that were rumored to nourish yin and yang, prolong life, and also make the body and mind happy.

……

It was late autumn, the cold wind was blowing, and the shrill crows were heard.

It was already Haishi, and the sky outside was completely dark.

Perhaps the death of Patriarch Faneng today had such a great impact on the monks of Wanfo Temple that the little novice monk who led the way for Zhu Houcong and the two could not sleep in the thatched cottage.

Smelling the scent of the newly introduced incense candles into the temple, he was unexpectedly hungry at this time.

But he didn't dare to light the lamp, and he couldn't help but shudder when he thought about the rumors about the evil zombies in the temple, waiting for opportunities to eat people.

He looked up at the sky and estimated that it would still be some time before the temple issued a warning not to go out after midnight~
or?Go to the kitchen to get something to eat?

In these two days, a golden body will be built for Master Fa Neng, and the news of the death of the founder will definitely attract a large number of lay people and believers from around Jinling to come to the mountain to worship and donate generously to Master Fa Neng.

He saw that the chef had already asked the monks to set up several huge steamers in the backyard in the afternoon, steaming plain steamed buns for tomorrow's use.

How long has it been since I’ve eaten steamed buns——

Senior Brother Huipu, who works in the kitchen, has a good relationship with me, so he won't be blamed for asking for a few.

Just do it——

The little monk climbed out of bed.

After putting on the monk's robe and shoes, he went out quietly.

I saw that the courtyard of the two Qintian Prison officials I led this morning was already dark, and they had obviously turned off the lights and went to sleep.

The little novice monk just breathed a sigh of relief and walked north through the bamboo forest towards the kitchen with peace of mind.

It can be said that the residence of this layman is convenient, whether it is to worship Buddha, listen to the sermons of eminent monks in the temple, or even deliver food to the kitchen as quickly as possible.

While walking through the bamboo forest, I sighed about when I would be able to live in a big house like the great monks in the temple.

But suddenly, the little novice heard something in the woods. .

This startled him. After all, in such a large bamboo forest, it is normal for some small animals to be active at night.

Thinking of the rumors about zombies, he didn't dare to shout. He subconsciously held his breath and carefully distinguished the sounds, only to find that they were the sounds of shovels shoveling earth and monks talking in the temple.

That voice was very familiar to him. It was the voice of Monk Yuantong, one of the three highest-ranking monks in the temple.

But what on earth was Master Yuantong doing in the bamboo forest in the middle of the night?

In order to ensure the secluded residence of the lay people, the bamboo forest here is the largest area in the entire Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple.Looking at the moon above his head, the bamboo forest in front of him happened to be in the shadow where the moonlight could not shine. The little monk was a little curious. He was probably adopted and raised by the temple since he was a child, which made him not understand the saying passed down by countless wise men from generation to generation. Common saying.

Curiosity killed the cat~
By some strange mistake, he actually held his breath for dear life and slowly moved forward to approach the source of the sound.

The angry words of Shovel and Monk Yuantong also became clearer.

"White Lotus Demon, for the sake of Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, this is the last time——"

In the dimness, the little novice monk couldn't see clearly the expression of the great monk Yuantong, but he could still hear the sound of gnashing teeth in his voice that was about to tear the person in front of him to pieces.

Then, the little novice heard the woman's chuckle.

"What you say is interesting. It seems that these Jin Yiwei 40 years ago were not removed by you monks from Wanfo Temple yourself, but by our White Lotus Sect's hands-"

White Lotus Sect!
Hearing that word that was infamous in the Ming Dynasty, the young novice's face was full of horror.

He covered his mouth tightly to prevent himself from screaming.

Those monsters!

How did Master Yuantong get involved with them?

Say more?Jinyiwei?Are they digging holes now just to dispose of the bodies of those royal guards?

"That incident was also a helpless move. If you hadn't interfered with it, how could these Jin Yiwei have become... We had no choice but to do it."

Yuantong was silent for a moment, and the sound of the shovel hoeing the ground became heavier, and he continued.

"Only Master and a few people like me know about that matter... You don't need to bother, just honestly explain the purpose of your visit to Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple this time."

Yuantong's words gradually became fierce.

But the White Lotus Sect witch opposite was unmoved.

She even chuckled and looked in the direction of the young monk intentionally or unintentionally.

"The timing of Monk Faneng's death is clever, but do you really know what is happening in front of you?"

"What do you mean!"

Monk Yuantong suddenly became alert.

He stared hard at the White Lotus Sect demon girl in front of him, suppressed the anger in his heart, and threatened.

"Although your White Lotus Sect is very powerful in the north, and even the palace has many eyes and ears, don't forget, this is Aurous Hill -"

"Master, you have misunderstood——"

The woman smiled coquettishly and spoke in an ambiguous voice.

"How do you know that there is no third person here besides you and me?"

what!
Yuantong and the little novice monk felt chills running down their spines almost at the same time.

Yuantong immediately looked around with a solemn expression, while the little novice was even more wary and lay on the ground without daring to move.

Finally, Yuantong seemed to have discovered some trace. He held a shovel and strode towards the direction of the little novice monk.

Seeing Yuantong getting closer and closer, the little novice monk's fear pushed him to the limit. He was ready to shout loudly and get up to escape at any time. However, at this time, a pair of big hands covered his mouth from behind and quickly dragged him into the depths. in the darkness.

Yuantong checked around and found that there were no so-called three people. He snorted when he realized that he had been tricked by these white lotus witches again.

Seeing that he returned without success, the White Lotus Sect woman was obviously a little dazed. She opened her mouth, but when she saw Yuantong's stinky face and the facts were in front of her, she had no choice but to shut up.

This time, he didn't even bother to talk to the witch next to him. He picked up the shovel and continued digging the hole, continuing to deal with the strange corpses beside him that had not shown any signs of decay for decades.

　Today is over. The stupid author was dragged by relatives to work as a coolie today. Let me rest for a while and try to update as much as possible tomorrow.

　　Just use college students as livestock! ! !
