Ouchi Cat Controlling, starting with the Ten Tiger Forms!

"Amitabha."

Master Shanleo and Master Chenghai sang the Buddha's name together to calm down their excitement.

After listening to Monk Chengche's statement, Li Xuan and the two stewards felt uneasy.

"I didn't expect Jiangnan Road to have reached such a stage..."

Li Xuan frowned, already smelling a crisis.

Emperor Yongyuan will tour the south next year, and Jiangnan Road is a must-stop.

Now that this place is so controlled by King Zheng, it looks like a well-prepared trap.

The plight of Fuhu Temple has been going on for a long time, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs has not received any news.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs previously sent a letter asking for news from Jiangnan Road, but there has been no news until today.

Although the deadline stipulated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs has not yet passed, Li Xuan and the two managers already felt that something was wrong.

"Did something happen to the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Jiangnan Road?"

There was silence in the room for a moment, and Zhao Feng asked:

"Master Chengcheng, are you sure the government officials are also targeting you?"

Monk Chengche sneered: "Humph, the government wanted to bring in the disciples of Fuhu Temple for questioning over and over again, from stealing at the beginning to raping and plundering later."

"At first, I thought there was some misunderstanding, but later I found out that all the people they came to get were missing disciples."

"There is a disciple on the front foot in Fuhu Temple who is missing, so they are coming to fetch him on the back foot."

"When we couldn't find anyone, we concluded that the disciple had escaped. We immediately issued a wanted document and posted it everywhere in Jiangnan Road. Within two months, Fuhu Temple had become infamous."

"Later, there was even one time when a lewd monk came to our temple to pick flowers. Maybe something went wrong and he actually asked for an eight-year-old novice monk."

"We then said that the person was missing, and the government continued to issue wanted documents. Only after reading the documents did we realize that they had made a mistake in the name."

After Monk Chengche finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Feng quietly.

Zhao Feng sighed and no longer doubted this matter.

"If it's not absolutely true, why would Senior Brother Abbot let me go through this?"

"But now it seems that I can't escape no matter where I go."

Zhao Feng confirmed his doubts, turned to Master Shan and Master Chenghai and asked:

"I wonder what the two masters think of this matter?"

Regarding this question, Master Chenghai silently looked at Master Shan Liao.

Considering the relationship between Ci'en Temple and Fuhu Temple, it is absolutely impossible for Ci'en Temple to just sit idly by in this matter.

He had already made up his mind and decided to see what Master Shan meant.

Master Shanleo was silent for a long time, wondering what he was thinking.

But no one urged him, but waited quietly.

"This matter needs to be reported to Fuyun Temple, and the current wandering monks of Fuyun Temple are asked to take charge of the overall situation."

"Right and wrong are decided by wandering monks."

Hearing this, Master Chenghai looked at Master Shanliao in shock and couldn't help but ask:

"That's it?"

Monk Chengcheng sighed silently.

He had long expected that even if he told the truth, it would be best to have such an outcome.

The wandering monk of Fuyun Temple has gone to who knows where.

As for finding Fuyun Temple to take charge of the overall situation, I'm afraid the day lily will be cold.

The place where Fuyun Temple is located is a dangerous place that is difficult for ordinary people to climb. Even experts like them would have to spend a lot of time coming and going, and they may not be able to get an audience from Fuyun Temple.

Fuyun Temple has always only focused on its own practice and rarely interfered in secular affairs.

Even if it's something in Buddhism, as long as it doesn't have too big an impact, they don't bother to interfere.

If Monk Chengcheng hadn't brought a group of disciples with him, he would actually have thought of going to Fuyun Temple.

It's just that Monk Chengcheng is self-aware of his temper and eloquence. He knows that he probably won't be able to invite people from Fuyun Temple to come down the mountain.

Now that he heard Master Shanluo's choice in person, Monk Chengcheng couldn't feel the slightest surprise.

Before, he was afraid that what he said would cause trouble, not only harming Fuhu Temple, but also hurting others.

Secondly, he thought that except for temples like Ci'en Temple, which had a special connection with Fuhu Temple, would other fellow Buddhists really wade into this muddy water for them?

Over the years, Fuhu Temple has had little contact with fellow Buddhists, and has only focused on punishing rape and eradicating evil. If there is any injustice in Jiangnan Dao, as long as it is spread to their ears, they will definitely send disciples to take care of it, and the methods will be extremely harsh.

It is absolutely impossible to say that this kind of method of conduct does not make a few enemies.

But this is the Buddhism that Fuhu Temple adheres to, and it has been like this for many years.

Although the monks at Fuhu Temple were irritable due to problems with their skills, they did not damage their brains.

After being targeted, it quickly became clear that people who had been offended over the years had come together to get rid of this thorn in their side.

But what they didn't expect was that this time the enemy would be so powerful and so united that even fellow Buddhists would not want to see them and would not lend a helping hand.

This decision made by Master Shan Liao was even the best attitude that Monk Chengcheng expected that other fellow Buddhists could give them.

But this does not solve the crisis in Fuhu Temple.

Far water cannot quench near thirst.

There was a sudden silence among the three masters.

Li Xuan and the two stewards looked on without interrupting.

This is a matter between their Buddhist sects. No matter what choice they make, it should not be up to outsiders to say anything.

"Chengcheng, don't leave the capital during this period."

"I will discuss the matter of Fuhu Temple with other temples in the capital, and I need you to be a witness."

Master Shanliao's words meant that he intended to make the matter of Fuhu Temple public and invite fellow Buddhists to discuss it together.

"No!"

Monk Chengche was the first to disagree.

"If those people are pushed to the limit, they will definitely jump off the wall, and then Fuhu Temple will be in danger."

Monk Chengche said hurriedly, and couldn't help blushing, and then coughed violently.

Master Chenghai quickly sat down by the window to calm down Monk Chengche.

Who would have thought that Master Shanliao would be out of character and said sternly:

"Have you all in Fuhu Temple become stupid from practicing martial arts?"

"They dared to attack you near the capital, what else would they not dare to do?"

"If you want to fight for a glimmer of hope for Fuhu Temple, listen to me!"

Master Shanliao was also anxious.

"People who want to harm you will definitely harm you."

"But if you don't make it clear to people who want to help you, who will know that you need help?"

"Chengche, you need to believe that there are still good people in this world. Don't be disappointed with everyone because of a few evil people."

"They are just silent, but they don't exist."

Master Shanliao advised earnestly.

He has seen that Monk Chengche's mentality has become a little extreme, and he may be in danger of becoming a demon if he is not careful.

The demon mentioned in Buddhism does not necessarily mean to do evil, but to have an ineradicable obsession in the heart, which becomes a lifelong demon.

As for how much harm the demon can cause, it depends on each person's opportunity.

But once the demon grows, this life may be ruined.

"Master Shanliao is right."

At this time, Shang Zongguan, who had not spoken much, said.

"I am Shang Wenfu, the current eunuch in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

Shang Zongguan first made a simple self-introduction, after all, there is a monk like Chengche who came from another place.

As for Master Shanliao and Master Chenghai, they knew Shang Zongguan very well.

As for the former Zongguan of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, these veteran masters of the capital had dealt with him many times before.

Of course, they all met each other in the capital, and they were all on good terms.

But if you say that they have any friendship in private, then there is no such thing at all, it is just that when everyone has something to do, they help each other.

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs is not convenient to intervene in the internal affairs of Buddhism."

"But the Western Region Fire Demon is committing crimes around the capital, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has to eliminate this threat."

"And the situation in Jiangnan Road reported by Monk Chengche is really strange. We need to ask Fuhu Temple to cooperate in the investigation."

"I don't know if the two masters..."

Shang Zongguan said, looking at them.

"If there is a need for Ci'en Temple, we will definitely cooperate with it!" Master Chenghai made a direct statement.

Manager Shang then looked at Master Shanliao, who smiled slightly and nodded, saying, "I agree with you."

Although the two masters seemed to be saying the same thing, the difference in tone was still obvious.

Master Chenghai was very firm, while Master Shanliao mostly agreed with them.

Li Xuan had followed the two managers and had long learned to listen to what they said.

"No wonder Master Chengche is so cautious. You monks are really not very reliable."

Li Xuan complained in his heart.

He had heard that Master Shanliao was also a second-grade master, and thought he would be a great help that could be won over, but now it seems that he is not interested.

"I wonder if there are enough third-grade masters to assist us, can we keep the Western Region Fire Demon?"

Li Xuan frowned, and felt that the road ahead was more and more uncertain.

As for the Buddhist affairs, Master Shanliao was unwilling to contribute his heart and soul.

If it continues like this, I am afraid that taking down the Western Region Fire Demon will only be Li Xuan's wishful thinking.

At this time, Monk Chengche, who was involved in the incident, also expressed his opinion:

"Now that things have come to this, I have no other choice."

"I am willing to trust your Ministry of Internal Affairs and cooperate with you fully."

"I have only one request, please send someone to Jiangnan Road as soon as possible to help our Fuhu Temple overcome this crisis."

Monk Chengche would never have thought that one day he would seek help from the court's lackeys.

He used to look down on the existence of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but now he had to bow his head for the survival of Fuhu Temple.

"Master Chengche is polite."

"It's just my job."

General Manager Shang and Zhao Feng stood up and returned the greeting.

Then, Zhao Feng asked Monk Chengche some details about Jiangnan Road, and then he saw that he had said everything he needed to say, so he prepared to stand up and say goodbye.

"Master Chengche, have a good rest."

"The Fuhu Temple disciples you brought with you are all safe and sound at this time. They are arranged to settle here. The young disciples who stayed in Ci'en Temple will be taken care of by Master Chenghai. You can rest assured."

"If we have any news about the Western Region Fire Demon or Jiangnan Road, we will send someone to inform you in time."

After Zhao Feng said this, he took the chief steward Shang and Li Xuan out of the room, leaving the room for the three old monks to talk in private.

After sending them away, Monk Chengche asked immediately:

"Junior Brother Chenghai, are the little guys who stayed in your temple okay?"

"Don't worry, my disciple Yuanxin is watching them. I will receive the signal immediately if there is anything." Master Chenghai knew what he was worried about and quickly comforted him.

"That's good, that's good."

Then, Monk Chengche turned his head to look at Master Shanliao, snorted coldly and said:

"Master Shanliao, why don't you leave?"

"Aren't you going to ask Fuyun Temple to take charge of the overall situation?"

"It's too late. We won't have time to collect the bodies from Fuhu Temple."

Monk Chengche's tone was unkind, and Master Chenghai immediately advised him from the side: "Senior Brother Chengche..."

Master Shanleo stood up with a gloomy face and walked quickly towards Monk Chengcheng.

Before Master Chenghai could step forward to stop him, Master Shanluo had already reached out and hit Monk Chengche on the head.

"What an idiot!"

Monk Chengcheng felt a pain in his head, and he even regained some consciousness.

"you!?"

Monk Chengcheng was about to curse, but Master Shanluo stepped in and said:

"The matter at Fuhu Temple is not as simple as you think!"

Monk Chengcheng was immediately stunned.

"A broken temple in a smelly ravine is not worthy of so many people's concern."

"And since when did the Ministry of Internal Affairs take charge of Jianghu affairs?"

"Starting from what happened recently, let's talk about it in detail one by one. Your Fuhu Temple must have been involved in something big!"

Master Shanluo spoke firmly, and Monk Chengcheng was stunned for a moment.

"explain!"

Master Shanleo drank, which made Monk Chengche tremble with fear, and immediately talked about all the recent events in Fuhu Temple.

…

"Don't you need to listen to what they are talking about?"

On the way back, Li Xuan asked the two managers.

"There is a second-level master inside. As long as they guard us, even you won't be able to hear anything. You might as well be more upright and leave a good impression."

Manager Shang touched Li Xuan's hair and told him not to waste his efforts.

"Other than what happened at Fuhu Temple, there seems to be nothing gained today."

"I think this Buddhism has long been torn apart."

Li Xuan said feeling a little bored.

He originally planned to win over a few more masters, find an opportunity to destroy the Fire Demon of the Western Region, and provide King Zheng with eye drops.

Now it seems that there is no chance.

"Buddhism used to be very united." Zhao Feng said with a smile, and then added: "It may not be as bad as Chengcheng said now."

Speaking of this, the two managers exchanged glances and smiled in tacit understanding.

Manager Shang said to Li Xuan: "Axuan, you don't know something."

"Don't look at it, Master Shan is kind and kind now, but he was also a domineering figure before."

"When he was lecturing on Buddhism in the capital, there were a lot of troublemakers, but in the end there was no negotiation between Buddhism and Taoism, and he finally stopped his lecturing."

Li Xuan blinked his eyes. Of course he didn't know about this kind of thing.

After all calculations, he is just a one and a half year old kitten now.

…

at the same time.

An underground building somewhere in the capital.

"Mr. Huo, everything is ready and we can leave tonight."

"Your Majesty has an order. Please leave Beijing safely and immediately go to Jiangnan Road to wait for orders."

In the darkness, two fire-like eyes lit up.

"Huh, got it."
