Zhenguan seven years, the second day after the frost.
After a sleepless night, the warm sunlight finally dispelled the haze of yesterday.
However…
As groups of Imperial Guards rode through the streets and alleys, an extremely bad premonition surged out of everyone's hearts again.
The Ghastly Assassin had appeared again!
It was him!
It must be him!
Rumble!
The imperial guards were running wildly on the streets.
...
Puzhao Temple.
The dark clouds dispersed, and the sunlight reappeared.
However, no one felt the slightest warmth.
Looking at the ghost-masked assassin who had placed his long saber on Abbot Ku Zhi's neck, Cheng Yaojin asked anxiously,"
"Little child, what exactly do you want? Tell me, and I'll help you talk to His Majesty!”
"Ah! Why don't you say something? What problem can killing solve? What grudge do you have with Qi Sha? He's already been killed by you, so why don't you let him go?”
Ignoring Cheng Yaojin's question, Lin Che looked at Abbot Ku Zhi who was sitting cross-legged on the ground and said,"
"It seems like you want to choose the same path as him.”
'He.'
Naturally, he was referring to Seven Kills.
Upon hearing this, Reverend Ku Zhi's fingers stopped moving the prayer beads. He put his palms together and said,"Amitabha. Patron, my junior brother killed that family. You took revenge for that family. In the future, someone will come to seek revenge on you.”
From the beginning to the end, Abbot Ku Zhi never thought that Lin Che was the child that Seven Kills was talking about.
He only thought that Lin Che was here to avenge the Lin family in Yunzhou.
Lin Che's expression was cold as he closed his eyes.
Since he could not get an answer from Ku Zhi, there was no need to ask more.
Puff!
A bloody light rose, and the entire courtyard was deathly silent.
"Abbot!"
" Senior Brother Abbot!!"
A series of sorrowful cries rang out.
In front of the great hall, the middle-aged monk was hurriedly fiddling with the prayer beads. Suddenly, his fingers trembled and a prayer bead broke from the string and fell to the ground with a clatter.
Immediately after.
Ta! Ta! Ta! Ta!
All the prayer beads fell to the ground and rolled in all directions.
"Senior Brother!"
The middle-aged monk shouted in a low voice and knelt on the ground. With tears in his eyes, he bowed heavily in Ku Zhi's direction.
The young girl with a face full of dust looked dejected.
...
"You! I'm so angry!"
In the front yard, Cheng Yaojin stared at the fallen body of Abbot Ku Zhi with his mouth agape. He pointed at Lin Che with a trembling finger, his eyes burning with rage.
Rumble!
The sound of horse hooves could be heard outside the gate of the courtyard.
Cheng Yaojin was about to fly into a rage when he saw a subordinate walk up to him and say a few words softly.
At the same time, a few shouts came from outside the temple.
"Lord Wei has arrived!"
An old man in a red robe and a gold belt walked in quickly under the escort of a group of people.
"General Cheng."
The old man nodded at Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Yaojin admitted that he had been confronting Lin Che for a long time and felt guilty, so he took a few steps back and turned his head away.
The old man who was escorted over was Wei Zheng.
As a man of action, Wei Zheng never did things sloppily. The moment he arrived at the temple, he locked onto Lin Che's figure and quickly sized him up.
In that instant, Wei Zheng believed that Lin Che was no ordinary assassin.
According to the actions of ordinary assassins, they would kill secretly and disappear after killing someone.
However, Lin Che's actions seemed to have no qualms.
This meant that…
Lin Che's killing intent was secondary, but his resentment and murderous intent were secondary.
Moreover, he was fearless!
After bowing to Lin Che, Wei Zheng lifted his sleeves and asked tentatively,"
"Sir, is the princess well?”
Lin Che didn't respond.
Seeing that Lin Che didn't answer, Wei Zheng introduced himself,""I am Wei Zheng, and I have come here under His Majesty's orders. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask. I only hope that you can release the princess.”
Wei Zheng knew how to do things appropriately. It was meaningless to negotiate with a demon who killed without batting an eye.
Therefore, he wanted to first sound out Lin Che's intentions and see if the princess was still alive. That was the main point.
If Princess Chang Le was still alive, it would be a different story.
If Princess Chang Le had already been killed, then Wei Zheng needed to prepare another set of excuses.
However…
What Wei Zheng didn't expect was that Lin Che didn't know about Princess Chang Le's disappearance.
Yesterday, in order to kill Seven Kills, Lin Che had given up on his target of Princess Chang Le.
At that time, the leader of the thousand cavalry who had killed the Lin family was right in front of him. Lin Che could not give up on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for revenge.
Compared to Princess Chang Le, Seven Kills was more able to arouse Lin Che's killing intent!
As for how Princess Chang Le disappeared, Lin Che didn't know.
If he didn't know, there was no need to answer!
...
...
Happy New Year! Little brothers,
If Mengmeng wants to tip, one yuan is fine too, mua~)
