This old monk should be in Quanzhou, two thousand miles away, at the Zilin Temple of Spirit Origin Mountain.
Why would he appear here?
"Tiande, don't misunderstand."
The old monk put his palms together and bowed.""This old monk has already seen through the mortal world. This time, he has traveled thousands of miles just to burn an incense stick for big brother to end his mortal affairs and make a trip to Qixia Mountain on the way.”
Qixia Mountain.
In the ancestral court of the Buddhist Sanlun Sect.
The ancient Qixia Monastery, which was one of the four great forests of Buddhism, was located at the western foot of Qixia Mountain.
"Do I need to bring it with me to settle my worldly affairs?"
Xu Da's gaze landed on the unknown object that was 2.3 meters long and wrapped in black cloth behind the old monk.
The old monk smiled and said,"Placing it in front of Big Brother's grave can be considered as an explanation for the worldly affairs."”
Xu Da was silent. He and the old monk looked at each other for a long time. With a 'gallop,' the warhorse under his feet galloped out and disappeared from the old monk's sight.
……
Lan Shenxing rode his horse and observed the temperature.
He wasn't wearing a flying fish robe, nor was he wearing an embroidered spring saber.
The current temperature was not suitable for farming. It would take another ten days to half a month.
Coincidentally, he could use this time to germinate the 22 catties of potatoes and find some manpower at the same time.
He only had three requirements for manpower.
1. Born as a farmer, proficient in farming.
2. Age cannot exceed 30.
Third, the character must not be weak, and the village tyrants who often fight will be hired first.
It would be difficult to find such a person in the Imperial City. After all, during the reign of Zhu Yuanzhang, no one dared to cause trouble around the Imperial City.
Therefore.
Lan Shenxing decided to use these ten or so days to go out for a walk.
The next morning.
Lan Shenxing passed by Qixia Mountain. In front of him was a mountain forest with no signs of human habitation.
After walking for about 50 miles, there was a temple, the ancient Qixia Temple. There were many villages around the temple.
After entering the forest.
Lan Shenxing became more cautious. After all, there were many ferocious beasts hidden in the ancient forest.
After walking for a few miles, Lan Shenxing was stunned.
A few hundred meters ahead, an old monk was sitting cross-legged. His chest was rising and falling as he continued to cultivate.
And at this moment…
Lan Shenxing's red-maned horse began to panic and neighed with its head lowered.
At the same time, a strong wind blew in the forest, causing the trees to sway and the dead leaves to fly.
Lan Shenxing's expression changed and he took out the dagger without hesitation.
With a swoosh, a multicolored tiger pounced out of the forest and charged straight at Lan Shenxing.
The speed was so fast that it made people speechless.
Just as the ferocious tiger was about to bite Lan Shenxing, the latter abandoned his horse and jumped onto the ground.
The red-maned horse's neck was bitten through by the tiger. With a mournful cry, it fell to the ground, and blood kept gushing out, dyeing the ground red.
The moment Lan Shenxing landed, he ran into the forest.
The tiger chased after him.
Lan Shenxing was quite skilled. He started climbing the tree and climbed up in no time.
However…
The tiger also climbed up.
"F * ck…"
Lan Shenxing's eyes twitched.
What about the story of the tiger and the cat?
Didn't tigers not know how to climb trees?
F * ck, the creator of this story and the publishing house are scamming people!
Although Lan Shenxing had a dagger in his hand, he was not confident that he could fight a tiger.
Just as the tiger was about to climb up the tree.
An elderly figure ran over quickly.
"Evil beast, don't harm others!"
This person's voice was like a muffled thunder. As he shouted, he had already rushed under the tree.
Lan Shenxing looked in the direction of the voice and saw an old monk holding a Buddhist staff and swinging it down.
The tiger jumped down from the tree and dodged.
Then, it let out a tiger roar and attacked the old monk.
The old monk stood in place, as steady as Mount Tai. The moment the tiger rushed in front of him, he suddenly twisted his body and stabbed the Buddhist staff in his hand in front of the tiger.
The staff was like a sharp weapon as it stabbed into the tiger's body.
"Roar…"
The tiger was stabbed, and blood flowed out. It roared and attacked the old monk again.
The old monk dodged the tiger's attack and kicked the tree trunk with one foot. The Buddhist staff in his hand smashed the tiger's head like a thunderbolt.
With a dull thud, brain matter splattered everywhere.
The tiger lay on the ground, motionless.
On the tree.
Lan Shenxing, who had survived the disaster, was dumbfounded.
Previously, he felt that it was unrealistic for Wu Song to fight the tiger. After all, the difference between human strength and a tiger was too great.
But now, this old monk had actually killed a fierce tiger!
Moreover…
The old monk was probably in his sixties.
"Good, good."
The old monk put his palms together as if he was making up for the sins he had caused. After he bowed to the tiger corpse, he looked at Lan Shenxing on the tree and said,"Patron, are you alright?"
Lan Shenxing came down from the tree and bowed.""Thank you for saving my life, Grandmaster. May I know your name?”
"Why should we know each other?"
The old monk waved his hand and smiled." This place is sparsely populated. From your attire, you don't look like a commoner from the surrounding villages. Why are you here?"”
"I'm going to the village ahead for some inspection," Lan Shenxing answered truthfully.”
The old monk nodded and said," It is fate that we met. I am going the same way as you. If you don't mind, you and I can go together. It can also be considered as taking care of each other on the way."”
"Thank you for taking care of me."
Regarding this matter, Lan Shenxing was more than happy.
The two of them walked together.
They chatted a lot along the way, but they didn't ask about each other's identities.
When Lan Shenxing heard that the old monk had rushed over from Quanzhou to offer incense to his big brother…
He had to admire the loyalty of the ancients.
After all, it was not peaceful outside.
Firstly, the remnants of Northern Yuan had not been eliminated.
Secondly, there were many bandits and robbers on the road.
No matter which one they encountered, it would be a disaster for ordinary people.
This old monk was really bold.
Moreover, he was already close to sixty years old. What kind of concept was this?
At this age, one's body functions had already declined rapidly. Their physical strength and endurance were not as good as before.
But even so, he could still kill the tiger!
