Chapter 35 The Wise and Foolish Old Monk

The next day.

In the morning, after dinner, Lin Qingzhi took the ownership of the land next to him from the village.

This is to build a house for his grandfather.

After living in Lin Qingzhi's house, grandpa also wanted to live in a wooden house, so this time he was the main force in drawing and building, and Lin Qingzhi took out the money first.

It was also Lin Qingzhi who persuaded his uncle and grandfather for a long time before they agreed.

They originally wanted to build a thatched house to live in first.

But how could Lin Qingzhi agree.

It is necessary to choose a good day to start building a house, whether it is now or in the future, so early in the morning, Lin Qingzhi's aunt and sister-in-law came to find grandma and aunt, and asked them to go to Taohua Temple together. The old monk there is very spiritual.

Last time Lin Qingzhi built a house, it was also the aunt and Lin Shi's wife who went to ask together.

After breakfast, several people walked towards Taohua Temple together.

Because the people of the Night Watch had issued a notice that the water monkeys had been eliminated, many fishing boats and ferry boats had appeared on the entire river.

Chatting, grandma and her friends had crossed the Luo River and walked towards Taohua Mountain.

It was summer now, and the peach trees on Taohua Mountain were full of fruits.

At that time, many monkeys would appear on Taohua Mountain, and they would come to pick peaches every year. At that time, the people in Ping'an Town, even those aunts who believed in Buddhism, would not go to Taohua Mountain.

Those monkeys were crazy.

Hitting people with peaches was just a piece of cake, and they would also rob pedestrians, and people would be robbed every year.

So, gradually, fewer people went up the mountain.

Except for some warriors.

They were not afraid of these monkeys. There was no such thing as protecting animals here. If they made those warriors unhappy, they would kill dozens of monkeys directly, and scare those monkeys away.

Only then did they stop.

Even if they killed dozens of monkeys last year, these monkeys would not learn their lesson the next year.

The peaches are not ripe yet, so there is no danger in going to Taohua Temple now, and Lin Qingzhi did not let anyone accompany him.

At the same time.

The Night Watch is indeed a professional in dealing with those demons and ghosts. In just two days, they have locked the man behind the scenes.

They never thought that the man behind the scenes was the old monk Huichi who was respected as the master by them, but whether they believe it or not, all the evidence points to the old monk.

Every time a case occurs, there will be the appearance of this old monk afterwards.

Whether it is the wife of the dead fishing king, the villager who was burst by food, or Wang Shaogang who was dragged to the bottom of the river by the water monkey.

There is the appearance of the old monk.

You can say that this is a coincidence, but the coincidence that appears every time is not a coincidence, but a deliberate appearance.

Not only this, but also the old monk is already very old, and it is very likely that he will practice the Seven Gu Techniques of the Demons because he wants to live.

The most important evidence is that the old monk Huichi came from the largest temple in Xia State, Kongling Temple.

In the past, the Kongling Temple helped to destroy the Demon Sect, and some people saw that when the Kongling Temple was destroying the Demon Sect, it moved some of the Demon Sect's skills back to the Kongling Temple.

Therefore, as a monk who once walked out of the Kongling Temple, it is very likely that he has memorized the Demon Sect's skills.

After knowing this result.

Zheng Hu took the people from the Night Watch to Taohua Temple.

When they set out, the grandmother and others had already walked to the door of Taohua Temple.

In the temple, there were several pilgrims like them, all of them were aunts from the surrounding villages, either to pray for marriage for their children or for their sons.

Or to pray for peace for their families.

"Amitabha, all female donors, please come with me. The abbot is chanting in the side hall." After the grandmother finished burning incense, she just explained her purpose to the little monk. After the little monk went to ask Hui Chi, he came back soon to take a few people over.

The aunt and Lin Shi's wife are both old pilgrims.

After arriving at the side hall and opening the door, I saw the old monk Huichi sitting there.

He closed his eyes tightly, holding the Buddhist beads in one hand and knocking the wooden fish with the other.

The unique sound of the wooden fish spread in the side hall, as if cleansing everyone's soul.

"Master, the female donors are here."

The young monk called the old monk respectfully.

"Amitabha, Weikong, go get some tea, female donors, please sit down, I don't know if you have any questions."

The old monk first instructed his disciples, and then asked the grandmother and others.

"Master, it's like this, my aunt is going to build a house recently, please help us find out which day is a good day." The old lady said on the side.

"Amitabha, I see, I wonder if this female donor has brought the birthday of the head of the family."

"Yes, yes, please trouble the master." Grandma quickly took out the birth date of grandpa.

Last time, Lin Qingzhi's birth date was also given to the old monk.

It was not fortune-telling, but just whether there were any taboos on the day, so the old monk escaped.

If he really did it, he would definitely die suddenly.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that monks do not tell fortunes. There are Buddhist precepts that prohibit people who study Buddhism from telling fortunes.

So, the old monk took out a calendar from the cabinet beside him, and then looked at the birth date for a while and said: "This female donor, four days later will be a good day, which is very suitable for you, the head of the family."

"Thank you, Master, thank you, Master..." Grandma thanked him repeatedly after hearing this.

His daughter's sister-in-law said that this old monk was very powerful, so he believed the day the old monk said.

Just as several people were about to leave, a burst of anxious footsteps came from outside.

Then, Zheng Hu appeared at the gate of the side hall with several night watchmen.

"Sir, Sir..."

A little monk ran from not far away, breathing rapidly, as if he was chasing Zheng Hu and others.

"Amitabha... I don't know why you are so anxious." The old monk looked at Zheng Hu and others who appeared, his face still as calm as water.

"Hui Chi old monk, have you forgotten what you did yourself?"

Zheng Hu walked in front of the old monk, looked straight into his eyes, and said slowly.

"I have done too many things in my life, I wonder which one you are talking about!" The old monk raised his head and looked at Zheng Hu's eyes without any fluctuation.

"Hmph! Old monk, your life is almost over! The Seven Demonic Gu Techniques, you practiced them!" Zheng Hu snorted coldly, squinting his eyes and looking at the old monk.

Hearing the name of the Seven Demonic Gu Techniques, Hui Chi's eyes finally had some fluctuations, but they soon disappeared.

However, Zheng Hu still noticed it.
