Immortality in the Great Qian Dynasty

Fakong looked at him quietly.

He also looked at Fakong.

As if he was sure that Fakong could not see him, he was unscrupulous and unguarded.

Fakong smiled: "Who are you?"

"..." The middle-aged man's face changed slightly.

Fakong felt strange, his expression was too surprised, as if it was incredible that he could see him.

He couldn't help but laugh: "I wonder what you are doing late at night?"

"..." The middle-aged man gently moved sideways.

Fakong smiled and shook his head, and his eyes followed: "In this case, please go ahead."

"... Can you see me?" The middle-aged man's voice was very attractive.

"Why can't you see it?"

"... No." The middle-aged man frowned and stared at him, looking Fakong up and down, and shook his head: "It shouldn't be."

"Should I not see you?" Fakong smiled and said: "Are you performing some wonderful secret technique, so you can hide your body and not be seen by others?"

"It shouldn't be." The middle-aged man shook his head, still feeling incredible.

He had never encountered such a situation before. His figure suddenly slipped and disappeared over the wall like a shadow.

Fakong watched him disappear over the wall, shook his head and laughed.

This man is indeed interesting.

But he doesn't look like a guard of the palace, but a bad guest.

But the bad guest is also a bad guest of the palace, and has nothing to do with him.

His mission is just to save Xu Miaoru, to completely cure Xu Miaoru, so that he can return to the Snow Mountain without any worries.

He thought of this and turned to go into the house.

He walked two steps and stopped.

He stayed in place for a few seconds and shook his head helplessly.

His obsessive-compulsive disorder attacked again.

Since he wanted to save Xu Miaoru, he would never allow Xu Miaoru to have any accidents and would never give up halfway.

He pushed the door out of the courtyard and walked slowly towards the back garden.

He thought as he walked.

This middle-aged man let him go, probably because he didn't seem to have any cultivation, but he didn't kill him to silence him, so he didn't seem to be a vicious person.

But in this world, not all people who do bad things are evil.

He looked slow, but in fact, he was very fast. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at Jinghu Lake.

He entered a small pavilion on the lake and sat in the pavilion to quietly admire the bright moon in the sky.

There were guards hiding in the dark on all sides of this back garden, some in the woods, and some under the flower beds.

It should be safe.

But under obsessive-compulsive disorder, he would feel restless if he didn't come to take a look.

The plump and graceful maid Xiaotao walked out of a water pavilion lightly, holding a plate in her hand. There were two plates of fruits and snacks, two plates of side dishes, and a pot of wine and a wine glass on the plate.

Fakong put his hands together and bowed.

Xiaotao smiled, twisted her slender waist, and turned away.

Fakong poured himself a glass of wine, which was mellow and fragrant. It was really a good wine.

After drinking two glasses of wine, he found the figure of a middle-aged man, who was slowly walking towards this side along the edge of the woods.

He stood at the edge of the woods, looking at this side from a distance, but did not approach Jinghu Lake.

There is a flower garden between Jinghu Lake and the woods, and the waist-high flower garden is blooming with flowers.

Under the moonlight, dozens of flowers compete for beauty.

The night breeze blows gently.

The fragrance of flowers is faint.

Fakong glanced at him and smiled and raised his glass.

The palace is worthy of being a palace.

Even though Prince Xin’s palace is simple and not luxurious inside and outside.

But looking at its expenses, it shows its difference.

Fruits and fine wine are treasures that are difficult to buy outside.

Fakong shook his head.

Vajra Temple is still far behind.

It seems that some fruits and vegetables of good quality should be planted in the medicine valley.

Other monks want to isolate themselves from the temptation of these desires to get rid of troubles. The most fundamental trouble is the suffering of life and death.

But I don’t have this greatest pain.

So my path of practicing Buddhism is different from other monks. There is no need to keep the precepts like them.

Enjoy life and enjoy this beautiful world.

The dark clouds moved lightly and suddenly covered the bright moon.

Suddenly the sky and the earth darkened.

Fakong saw the middle-aged man standing quietly suddenly slip, silently sliding to the corridor on the lake in the shadows.

Fakong sighed and uttered a word lightly: "Stay".

The middle-aged man suddenly stood still.

He took a step forward, stopped in mid-air, and was frozen, like a statue, unable to move.

He couldn't even move his eyes, and couldn't open his eyes wide, just staring at Fakong in a daze.

Fakong shook his head gently and gave him a look.

When a glass of wine was finished, the middle-aged man resumed his activities, his face changed slightly and stared at Fakong.

Fakong raised the wine glass casually, saluted him from a distance, and then took a sip, showing a look of enjoyment.

The middle-aged man's face was uncertain, and he stared at Fakong.

Fakong smiled and shook his head.

At this time, the dark clouds passed, and the moonlight fell again.

The middle-aged man suddenly turned around and walked out of the corridor. When he left the Jinghu Lake, his figure appeared in the moonlight.

The sound of fluttering clothes was heard immediately.

The middle-aged man suddenly accelerated and went back into the woods.

Fakong saw several figures appear from the dark, chasing into the woods, and then there was no movement.

After a few breaths, a group of guards appeared quietly, silently surrounded the woods, and did not come forward to disturb Fakong in the pavilion.

Fakong watched them surround the woods so tightly that no water could get in, and shook his head secretly.

The reaction of these guards was not slow, but the middle-aged man had already left.

He seemed to be able to walk in the shadows without being discovered.

It was just that I had been in a state of blessing from the Medicine Buddha statue, and my mind was clear and I would not be deceived by him.

Is this an assassin?

After a long struggle, the guards dispersed. From beginning to end, there was no sound except the sound of clothes fluttering.

It seemed like a silent world.

Fakong smiled and looked towards the west pavilion.

The door of the west pavilion opened, and Prince Xin and Xu Miaoru came out together and came to Fakong.

Prince Xin clasped his hands: "Master Fakong."

Fakong stood up and clasped his hands in return.

"Thank you, Master." Prince Xin said.

If it weren't for Fakong, I wouldn't have been able to find the assassin. It was really a strange secret technique.

Fakong smiled: "How can a mere assassin get close to the prince? I am the one who is meddling."

Xu Miaoru was lazy and beautiful, like a sleeping crabapple, with her cheeks full of spring: "Are you here to assassinate me?"

"It should be to assassinate me." Prince Xin's face was gloomy, his eyes flashed with cold light, and he said coldly: "Chen Guangdi!"

"I am here!"

A figure suddenly emerged from the woods, without touching the lake water, crossed the air to the pavilion, clasped his fists and bowed.

It was a plain-looking young man, with a dignified demeanor and eyes shining like gems.

"What happened?"

"My subordinates failed in their duties, and an assassin broke in."

"Did you catch him?"

Chen Guangdi shook his head: "He seems to have disappeared. It's not a loophole in our guards... It should be a shadow assassin."

"Hmm-?"

"Shadow assassin Lin Feiyang." Chen Guangdi said: "Walking in the shadows, killing people invisibly, no matter how high your cultivation is, you can't find him."

"Whose man?"

Chen Guangdi clasped his fists and said: "His identity is a mystery, but three nobles have died in his hands, Lord Chen and Lord Yu from the Ministry of War, and King Xuan of Nan."

Prince Xin frowned: "Assassinated the prince, but he is still safe?"

King Xuannan is in the remote south, thousands of miles away from the capital. He heard about this but didn't pay much attention to it.

Originally thought that the assassin had been caught long ago and punished according to the law, but he didn't expect that the assassin was still at large.

This is too outrageous.

That's a dignified prince.

Although he is just a prince of a different surname, he is still a prince who inherited the title.

But the prince is the prince, and the dignity of the court is related to it. How could he be assassinated without catching the murderer? How would the world view the court?

Chen Guangdi hesitated.

"You are so hesitant, just fart!"

"...Yes." Chen Guangdi gritted his teeth: "The Ministry of Justice has arrested someone, but..."

"Hey!" Prince Xin sneered.

He understood it immediately.

Such means are very common.

When a murder case with a great impact occurs, the superiors strictly order to solve the case, and even set a deadline. If the case cannot be solved, the person handling the case will be dismissed.

At this time, if the real murderer cannot be caught, someone will be pushed out to take the blame.

There are many experts among the death row prisoners in the prison of the Ministry of Justice.

Push the crime to a death row prisoner.

After all, he is a death row prisoner. It doesn't matter if there is one more crime or one less. It is easy to buy him off. With a series of confessions, it can almost be fooled.

Of course, this requires multiple links to be dredged up. If the family of the deceased cannot be fooled, then find a way to give some compensation and shut them up.

If the people don't report it, the officials won't investigate it. Everyone will encounter such a difficult case, so if no one makes a fuss, they will just muddle through.

Prince Xin is very clear about the rules in the officialdom, but he didn't expect that he would dare to do such a big case like the assassination of the prince!

His face was gloomy as if it was going to rain.

"Who handled the case?... Forget it!" Prince Xin waved his hand, gave up the idea of ​​getting to the bottom of it, and said coldly: "Is there any way to catch this Lin Feiyang?"

Chen Guangdi hesitated.

"Waste!"

"Yes, I am incompetent."

"Is there no one who can deal with him?"

Chen Guangdi shook his head helplessly.

As far as he knew, no one could do anything to Lin Feiyang yet, so he hurriedly said: "But there is a trick that can break him."

"Say it!"

"As long as there is no shadow, he can't hide. As long as the palace lights up enough lights, there will be no shadows!"

"... Get out!"

"Yes."

Chen Guangdi flew away.

Prince Xin Chuxiang shook his head helplessly.

Xu Miaoru smiled and said, "Your Highness, this is an idea."

This move is stupid, but it still makes sense. If there is no shadow, the shadow assassin will have no place to hide.

"Listen to his nonsense." Chu Xiang said, "Not to mention that there is no way there will be no shadow with so many lights. Are you on guard against Lin Feiyang all day long?"

"What can your Highness do?"

"Master Fakong." Chu Xiang looked at Fakong: "Master, please teach me."

Fakong looked at Xu Miaoru's white wrists.

The two white wrists were empty.

Xu Miaoru was smart and immediately realized: "Monk, could it be the Buddhist beads?"

"Put on the Buddhist beads, Your Highness will be able to see this assassin." Fakong clasped his hands together: "I will take my leave."

He left Jinghu lightly.

"Xiao Xing."

"Yes, Princess." The slender and graceful maid lightly entered the water pavilion and quickly held out a small red sandalwood box.

After Xu Miaoru opened it, she took out the Buddhist beads covered with golden silk and handed them to Chu Xiang: "Your Highness, try it on."

Chu Xiang took it with a smile: "My arms are thick and my movements are rough, I'm afraid it will break."

He tried to put it on, and although it was a little tight, he could still wear it, and his expression gradually showed surprise.

Xu Miaoru smiled and said, "This is blessed by Master Fakong, how is it?"
