The moon was bright and the stars were few.
Wind and thunder roared in the courtyard of the Prince's mansion. Blinding white light exploded frequently. The courtyard was suddenly bright and dark, which was especially strange.
A two-meter-tall red-haired mandrill was sitting cross-legged in the air and chanting scriptures. Its red fur lit up with a faint Buddhist light, which was strange and inexplicable.
After a round of strengthening, the mandrill in the Painted Skin Kasaya had already surpassed its peak condition and was showing signs of getting closer.
As for the Rabbit Disaster Blade, it was even more mystical.
However, Chen Nuo was still not satisfied.
"Too light."
After familiarizing himself with the changes, Chen Nuo sighed.
Even though the Rabbit Disaster Blade had been strengthened to 6, it was only a little faster than before.
Compared to the improvement of his equipment, Chen Nuo himself had improved the most. In comparison, the Rabbit Disaster Blade was dispensable.
"I wonder when I'll be able to find a treasure that I can fuse with.”
He put away the Calamity Blade and muttered to himself.
Just as he was thinking about what weapon he should get in the future, the chanting stopped abruptly.
The mandrill turned into a cloud of red smoke and moved along with the wind. After a while, it returned to Chen Nuo.
A cold female voice sounded.
"Lord Zeng, the constable has returned, but there is only one person.”
Chen Nuo frowned.
Why was there only one person?
Not long after, the sound of horse hooves could be heard. The constable from before walked in, travel-worn.
"Lord Zeng is in good health."
He cupped his fists and bowed.
Chen Nuo nodded and asked.
"Where are the others?"
The constable's expression froze and he sighed in his heart. Even though he had some complaints about the county magistrate, he did not show it.
"The county magistrate will personally bring people here tomorrow morning. This is the visiting card he asked me to deliver.”
Chen Nuo was speechless.
A visiting card? So particular?
He took the invitation card and opened the fire seal to read it.
He was even more speechless after reading through it.
Most of the content in the letter was nonsense. It was nothing more than the sadness of hearing the bad news about Wang Zhuang, the gratitude and admiration for Chen Nuo, the generous gifts he would send the next day, and the invitation to Chen Nuo's residence as a guest.
In the end, he even vaguely expressed his intention to recruit Chen Nuo, saying that he would recommend Chen Nuo to the City Lord so that Chen Nuo could preach Buddhism and save the world.
Chen Nuo was not interested in this at all.
It was not easy for him to see this mysterious world. He had not even taken a good look at it, so how could he loiter around and waste his time?
What made Chen Nuo most speechless was that there was not a trace of urgency in the letter.
It was as if he did not care about the evil in the constables 'bodies.
He thought about it and understood.
"I have nothing to fear ~"
The constable who delivered the letter did not understand the meaning of this sentence and only smiled stiffly.
The constable didn't know that the reason why the county magistrate didn't care was very simple.
Since the evil hadn't spread, it wasn't a problem.
Not only did the monk solve his worries, but he also had his own ways to solve them.
They were just a few constables. If anything went wrong, they could just burn them down.
All the demons and monsters turned into ashes.
This was also the reason why the county magistrate sent people to control the constables as soon as he learned of the situation.
For a moment, Chen Nuo's interest waned.
"If it's not done by tomorrow night, then I'll have to pray for good luck.”
Without waiting for the bailiff to say anything, he waved his hand and walked into the room.
The constable could sense Chen Nuo's displeasure. He subconsciously took a step forward and wanted to chase after him to explain himself, but the mandrill suddenly appeared and blocked his way.
The constable did not notice the mandrill's existence and was shocked by its ugly appearance.
Fortunately, he was not stupid. He knew that the mandrill was probably a demon that Chen Nuo had converted. He quickly cupped his hands and said loudly.
"Lord Zeng, please calm down. The county magistrate will arrive tomorrow morning. Xiao Xu will definitely return tomorrow.”
No one answered.
He sighed." I'll be waiting outside the door. If Lord Zeng needs anything, just tell me."”
With that, he walked to the wall and sat down.
The night was silent.
The morning sun shone.
The early spring was cold. The constable who had spent the night outside the door slowly woke up. After moving his stiff body, he went to the stream to wash his face.
When he came back after washing his face, the manor was still silent.
"Lord Zeng must have been tired yesterday. Otherwise, an eminent monk like him wouldn't have slept until now.”
Hence, he became more careful, afraid of disturbing the monk's rest.
However, he only realized that something was wrong when the sun was high up in the sky and the sound of horses and carriages could be heard from afar.
"Lord Zeng?"
"Grandmaster?"
"Saint monk?"
He shouted louder and louder, but he did not receive any response.
A bad premonition rose in his heart, and he could not help but sweat anxiously.
Hearing the sound of the approaching carriage, he did not care about being rude. He quickly ran to the door and pushed it open as carefully as possible.
There was no trace of the monk in the room. Only the mandrill was sitting cross-legged on the ground with its eyes closed.
Oh no!
I'm afraid I angered Lord Zeng last night!
Coincidentally, at this moment, the county magistrate walked in with a large group of people.
"I'm really sorry for making you wait. Please forgive me ~"
The county magistrate took the lead and strode over.
The corners of the constable's mouth twitched. He turned around and wanted to speak, but the county magistrate glared at him and could only move aside.
"Last night, when I learned that the holy monk had displayed his divine might, my heart was filled with excitement and I couldn't sleep at night. Today, I must fight with the holy monk... Ah, a monster!”
At the end of his words, his tone changed sharply and he immediately screamed. His legs went soft and he took a few steps back and fell to the ground.
Compared to his previous calm and confident self, he was now in a sorry state. His old face was filled with fear, and he looked like a frightened clown!
The mandrill widened its eyes in disdain.
How could the big monk give such a lowly thing any face? He was still waiting for him to come. He was probably thinking of eating fart!
He was really daydreaming. Why didn't he take a look at himself? How could he be worthy of waiting for Lord Zeng for an entire night?？
