Chapter 594 Hidden Secrets in Yuntai Temple
"Don't be afraid, young lady. You are out of danger, and with me here, those monsters can't do anything to you!"
Chu Chen sat down and first reassured her.
"Tell me about what happened after you encountered those monsters!"
The girl nodded after listening and then told Chu Chen everything in detail.
The girl is the fifth child in her family, so everyone calls her Fifth Sister. Yesterday, she went up the mountain with her father to pick some snow lotus to sell and supplement the family income.
Because she had learned some martial arts skills and was quite daring, she went to another hilltop by herself.
Just as she saw a snow lotus of excellent quality and wanted to pick it,
Suddenly, she heard a conversation.
Out of curiosity, she walked a short distance in the direction of the sound.
I vaguely heard someone say that the clan chief had given instructions that the place they were looking for had been found, and that it was inside the Yuntai Temple on the mountainside next door.
It was also said that the clan chief had received the news and would soon come to investigate.
She slipped and made a noise, which startled the two people who were talking.
When the two men came up in front of her, even she, who was usually quite brave, was startled.
She was facing two people with dog heads.
Upon seeing her, the two men immediately revealed greedy eyes.
I'm ready to just grab her right there and then!
She resisted fiercely, fought back, and drove them away before running back the way she came.
She returned to her father's side, told him what she had heard that she shouldn't have, and then tried to pull her father away.
Little did they know, these two things were incredibly fast, arriving in front of them in an instant.
So one of them shot the piece of iron into her stomach and then kicked the two of them off the cliff.
As I fell off the cliff, I heard another person say, "Hurry up and get out of here, don't cause any trouble!"
Immediately afterwards, she started bleeding profusely and lost consciousness.
Chu Chen nodded after listening: "That's right, what you encountered were called kobolds. You're lucky; they didn't continue to pursue you!"
"But you are safe now."
After saying that, Chu Chen stood up, lifted her blanket, and changed the medicine again under the girl's shy gaze.
They then invited the people from outside in.
"We shouldn't stay here any longer. She's out of danger now. Let's carry her back to Saibei City and take good care of her."
A short while later, amidst the people's profuse thanks, Chu Chen closed the door!
According to the girl, the two dog-headed men were Ao Tianhai's subordinates, and they were looking for a mysterious place.
And this mysterious place is located in Yuntai Temple.
Chu Chen decided to investigate on his own that night, and then quietly wait for Ao Tianhai's arrival.
He knew in his heart that no matter how well Ao Tianhai disguised himself, he couldn't hide the scent on his body.
He was just an ordinary person, and after dressing up as a monk, he estimated that Ao Tianhai wouldn't recognize his true identity.
Then we should just wait patiently for him to arrive, and take it one day at a time.
With that in mind, Chu Chen simply opened the door and began to help the pilgrims who came and went.
Gradually, more and more people came to Yuntai Temple to seek answers to their questions.
Chu Chen was both amused and exasperated, thinking to himself, "How did this fake act become real? If this continues, won't I become a real monk?"
Three days later, Chu Chen sat at the table with a cigarette in his mouth, explaining to a woman what it meant to pay attention to hygiene.
Suddenly, a heavy rain began to fall.
At that very moment, another group of people dressed as monks also entered Yuntai Temple.
After these people came in, they were no different from the others; they also offered incense and knelt down to worship the Bodhisattva!
After Chu Chen finished explaining, he came out from the inner room to see how many worshippers were left. He immediately saw several monks kneeling on the ground.
I thought to myself, "Holy crap, I've met someone in the same boat."
So he pretended to put his hands together and asked, "Gentlemen... oh, I mean, masters, where do you come from?"
Upon seeing this, the monks stood up and looked at Chu Chen with some confusion.
Then the leading monk asked the one beside him, "Isn't this supposed to be an unmanaged temple? Why are there monks here?"
"Um, clan... Master, perhaps he's new here, a money-grubbing scoundrel. Wait until tonight!"
Although they spoke very softly, Chu Chen still heard them clearly.
He thought to himself, "Who else could this guy be but Ao Tianhai!"
But you guys are too audacious! You don't treat monks like fellow practitioners at all. You actually dared to try to kill me in the middle of the night, right in front of me.
However, Chu Chen didn't reveal his thoughts, so he said to the group, "Amitabha!"
Upon seeing this, the leading man turned around and said, "Master, we have come from the distant Great Xia. We saw this temple and came to pay our respects. It is raining heavily, so please find us a clean room to rest!"
Chu Chen curled his lip after hearing this, thinking to himself, "Good thing you've come. Since you're here, then please stay."
So he quickly stepped out of the small hall and said, "Masters, please come inside and rest!"
After saying that, he led the group into the small hall inside.
Then they brought over a few stools and let them sit down.
At that moment, Chu Chen had the urge to go outside immediately and throw a bomb inside.
But considering Ao Tianhai's terrifying skills, he thought it best to forget it. What if he accidentally killed the pilgrims instead of Ao Tianhai? That would be a huge loss.
But since they're here today, we'll make sure they don't leave no matter what.
While enthusiastically pouring tea for the group, Chu Chen considered his options.
A moment later, he came up with a solution, and a smile appeared on his lips.
He thought to himself: You want to rest? Well, let's see how I lock you up.
So he said, "Masters, please rest for a while. It's getting late. I'll make your beds right away."
After saying that, he went into the east wing.
Then, after surveying the width of the room, he moved with a thought and instantly entered the space.
Inside the space, Chu Chen nimbly arrived at a construction site.
He reached out and grabbed a welding machine.
Then the thick steel bars were pulled out and put into the bending machine. In less than half an hour, an iron cage was welded.
Even if Ao Tianhai had extraordinary abilities, he couldn't break through the steel bars of modern society in a short time!
Immediately afterwards, he left the space and entered the room.
Listening closely to the wall, he saw several people outside still drinking tea, so he took out the iron cage on a whim.
Moreover, the door of the iron cage happened to be the same as the door of the room.
After binding the iron gate and the wooden door of the side room together with wire, Chu Chen opened the door and went out.
"Masters, you must be tired from your journey. Please rest in the rooms!"
