Chapter 676: Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio - Fairy 48
Without the senior monk chanting sutras and the young monk singing in harmony, Zhiqiu Yiye quickly got rid of the mental attack that had penetrated his brain and regained consciousness. Seeing that he finally stopped rolling around, Ruyi hurriedly asked, "Zhiqiu Yiye, are you awake?"
"I'm awake." Zhiqiu Yiye's face looked very ugly. In order to resist the murderous intent generated by the devil's sound invading his mind, Zhiqiu Yiye had spent a lot of energy. Now he looked like he was fished out of the water, soaked and in a miserable state.
Seeing how pale his face was, Ruyi couldn't help feeling annoyed, thinking that she was too careless.
He had clearly known about the mental attacks from Pudu Cihang Society, but due to his habitual thinking, he assumed that only Pudu Cihang Society would use this trick. He completely forgot that while he was not around, his descendants might also use this trick, and he had no precautions at all.
Of course, Ruyi also ignored the fact that because he knew clearly that this move had no effect on Zhiqiu Yiye, the Zhiqiu Yiye in the plot was the Zhiqiu Yiye with higher cultivation ten years later, not the immature Zhiqiu Yiye now.
"It's my fault. I forgot to prepare in advance and that's why you almost got into trouble."
"No, this has nothing to do with you, senior. It's me, I'm not strong enough. It's me, my mind is too weak." Zhiqiu Yiye did not agree with Ruyi's idea. He only hated himself for not being strong enough.
"Senior, I will become very strong, definitely!" Zhiqiu Yiye clenched his fists tightly, his heart full of determination to become stronger. He solemnly promised Ruyi that he would become very strong.
Ruyi did not laugh at his determination, but just believed in him as always, "Zhi Qiu Yiye, I believe in you." The speed of her own cultivation was not normal, it could be said that the way of heaven had opened a back door. If there was no such back door, Ruyi's cultivation would not have increased so fast.
Judging from Zhiqiu Yiye's current cultivation speed, his qualifications are already top-notch in this world. In the original plot, Zhiqiu Yiye ten years later could already defeat Pudu Cihang, who had cultivated for 8,000 years, with the help of Yan Chixia, Zuo Qianhu and others. The current Zhiqiu Yiye is even more diligent in his cultivation than the Zhiqiu Yiye in the plot. Ruyi is sure that Zhiqiu Yiye ten years later will be even stronger than the Zhiqiu Yiye in the original plot.
However, what the two of them lack most at the moment is time. After the monk disappeared, Ruyi searched the entire Huangjue Temple several times, but still could not find him.
"I thought we could deal with that five thousand year old monster before the Imperial Master came back, but I didn't expect him to react so quickly and escape underground."
After completely destroying all the monsters left in the Huangjue Temple, Ruyi and Zhiqiu Yiye left the Huangjue Temple without stopping. The monk had already escaped, and it seemed that the imperial master in the palace should soon know what the two had done.
"We can't stay in the capital, Zhiqiu Yiye, we have to leave as soon as possible!"
As they were exposed unexpectedly, the two did not put on any disguise on their faces when they were spotted by the monk. It seemed that the imperial master would soon find out their identities and they could no longer stay in the capital. The original plan to deal with the monster and the court official had to be abandoned now.
“I hope that the loyal and righteous people of this country can hold on a little longer, and that the people of this dynasty can live a little longer.”
There are too many things that people like Ruyi and Zhiqiu Yiye can handle. The world is in chaos, demons are rampant, the emperor is incompetent, and the people are suffering. It is difficult to turn the tide with one person's strength alone. Even if there is no demon king who is disrupting the government, judging from the current emperor's exploitation and harsh rule of the people, the fortune of this dynasty will not last long.
Shortly after Ruyi and Zhiqiu Yiye left, two special wanted posters were issued in the palace. One had a picture of a young Taoist priest with the word "evil" written on it, and it was Zhiqiu Yiye. The other had a picture of a beautiful woman with the word "evil" written on it, and it was Ruyi.
As a combination of an evildoer and a female monster, they quickly became famous throughout the country for the crime of massacring all the monks in Huangjue Temple. Even the prisoners in the capital jail had heard about them.
Ning Caichen looked at the woman in the portrait and recognized Ruyi's identity at a glance. He was unwilling to believe that Ruyi, who had saved himself and Xiaoqian, would be a monster, and even more unwilling to believe that Ruyi would kill the monks in Huangjue Temple. He just thought that Ruyi was framed like himself.
"Miss Song, what happened to you?"
Over the years, Ning Caichen has witnessed in his cell many loyal and courageous ministers and generals who were loyal to the country and the people being framed and imprisoned, and soon their entire families were executed. Gradually he realized that there were problems in the dynasty from top to bottom. He no longer held on to the naive idea that he would be able to clear his name and restore his innocence one day. Now he just wanted to return to his hometown and live a good life away from all this.
After leaving the capital overnight, Ruyi and Zhiqiu Yiye put on a simple disguise and bought two horses and traveled for a while. Seeing that they were hundreds of miles away from the capital, they thought that this distance was safe and were preparing to rent a remote courtyard near the nearest county town to live in and practice for a while.
But they didn't expect that as soon as they entered the city, they saw the wanted poster posted on the city wall. The two looked at each other and immediately put on their veils to cover their faces. "Let's go. We can't stay here anymore."
"I didn't expect that the old monster of the national teacher would be so fast. The people in the capital may have been deceived by him a long time ago. Unless we can expose the identity of the monster of the national teacher on the spot, they will not believe us."
Isn't this exactly the case with Zuo Qianhu in the plot? Because he is loyal to the emperor who is controlled and bewitched by the national teacher, he has been helping the national teacher to persecute loyal officials. If he had not personally discovered the identities of the court officials and the national teacher and other monsters, Zuo Qianhu would never have realized that he was wrong.
There are many people like Zuo Qianhu. Ruyi and Zhiqiu Yiye cannot really kill them all. There are wanted warrants for the two everywhere. In order not to be discovered, they can only hide in another place.
Zhiqiu Yiye also didn't want to deal with those deceived people. These people were said to be absolutely evil, but they were not. Killing them would only damage Zhiqiu Yiye's spiritual heart and his merits would no longer be there.
"Senior, where are we going next? How about you come back to Kunlun with me?"
They probably couldn't stay in a place with people for a short time. Only the deep mountains far away from human habitation might meet Ruyi and the others' requirements. Zhiqiu Yiye rolled his eyes and wanted to persuade Ruyi to go back to Kunlun with him, but was rejected by Ruyi.
"No, I won't go to Kunlun."
"Zhi Qiu Yiye, why don't you go back to Kunlun by yourself." Zhi Qiu Yiye had been traveling all the time with her, which was not suitable for her to practice at all. Ruyi wanted to take this opportunity to persuade Zhi Qiu Yiye to return to Kunlun for retreat, but unfortunately Zhi Qiu Yiye refused to agree no matter what.
Finally, Ruyi couldn't force it, so she thought of Lanruo Temple where Yan Chixia lived in seclusion, "Forget it, since you don't want to go back, then come with me."
"I thought of a place that is very suitable for us to practice for a period of time!" Yan Chixia is in Lanruo Temple, and perhaps Zhiqiu Yiye can learn something from Yan Chixia.
