Chapter 483 Is Qingyue back? (Tongue cut out!)

Stolen money?

Do they really have a place to put their money?

The angry crowd finally regained a sliver of reason, and a hint of expectant smile appeared on each of their faces.

"Great! Stop hitting people and hurry up and find the money!"

"Let's go, let's all go together and turn this meditation room upside down. We must find our money today!"

"That's right, my family only has five taels of silver. With that five taels, we could build two more rooms! Let's go find it and get it back."

"Walk--"

Everyone quickly abandoned Zongzheng Zhiyuan and Xie Huaiyuan, and turned to run towards Jia Guan's meditation room.

The monks inside the room heard this and were furious.

Just as they were anxiously preparing to rush out, the "killers" quietly appeared from all sides and surrounded them.

The entire Guanyin Hall was quickly surrounded, making the monks anxious but they dared not take a single step out.

After all, five of Jiechen's teeth had already been knocked out.

Many rebellious monks also silently covered their faces.

My heart was burning with anxiety, yet I dared not take a single step out.

Having survived again, Zongzheng Zhiyuan rolled over and quickly crawled to Xie Huaiyuan beside her. Finding his breath barely a whisper, she cried out in distress, "Brother Huaiyuan, Brother Huaiyuan!!"

"Don't die, don't scare Yuan'er!"

However, before Zongzheng Zhiyuan could even utter two cries, a guard who had left with Zhang Tingjiu rushed back.

"Your Highness, something terrible has happened—Your Highness, the Princess has jumped into a well and committed suicide!!"

Zongzheng Zhiyuan: "What!?"

She looked up at the sound, and then her hands and feet seemed to have a mind of their own, making it impossible for her to get up normally.

After a difficult, unsteady struggle and several falls, he finally managed to get up.

She quickly followed the guards and ran towards the well.

After she left, Duan Rongshi looked at Leng Dian, who was watching the show not far away: "Tie him up."

Xie Huaiyuan was tied up under the big tree outside the Guanyin Hall.

Duan Rongshi asked Qingyangzi, who knew some acupuncture techniques, to give him needles.

It wasn't to save his life, but simply to temporarily pull him back from the clutches of death.

Because he still has debts to repay, debts that he hasn't finished paying off.

After Xie Huaiyuan struggled to open his eyes, he could only vaguely see two figures, one black and one white.

He was already on the verge of death, what didn't he understand?

All that happened at Ningyuan Temple these past two days was the work of these two people.

They did everything.

"Who...who are you all...?"

Why must you... put me... to death—?

"What grudge do I hold against you? What hatred do I harbor against you?!"

Duan Rongshi remained silent.

She simply slowly removed her mask, revealing her true face.

Xie Huaiyuan felt that everything in front of him was becoming clearer and clearer.

Upon seeing that living face that was almost identical to the one he had met, his eyes widened in shock and disbelief.

"Moon..."

"Is that you, Moon?!"

"Moon, are you back?"

"Is it really you who came back to get revenge on me?"

"Moon, I was wrong—I've regretted it for a long time, Moon—"

"But back then, it was that person who forced me into all of this!"

“If I don’t betray you and destroy you with my own hands, he will make my entire Xie family pay for my love.”

"Moon—he's the one who's crazy, he's the one!!"

"Otherwise, we should be a perfect couple..."

"We should be the ones—"

Xie Huaiyuan screamed loudly and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

Then he rolled his eyes and fainted again.

Leng Dian stepped forward: "You're still breathing. You've really lived a long life."

Duan Rongshi: "Draw blood from him."

He wanted him to die slowly.

He looked at Ningyuan Temple, at the face inside the Guanyin Hall, unable to stop his own death, slowly growing cold in despair.

With a single, cold, electric cut, Xie Huaiyuan's wrist was severed.

Only after the blood started flowing freely did he step back.

The monks in Guanyin's shop were so anxious they were jumping up and down, but they didn't dare to come out.

They didn't even dare to make a sound anymore.

I fear that I will be the next one to be tormented.

Duan Rongshi certainly wouldn't let them go.

He glanced at the Guanyin Hall, looking at the compassionate statue inside, and felt a sharp pain in his heart.

Even in death, the mother could not escape the filthy covetousness and selfishness of these people.

He gently closed his eyes: "Burn down this Guanyin Temple."

The word "Kill" and the guards of Prince Su's mansion: "Yes!"

The moment the fire was ignited, the monks, finally overcome with fear, all rushed out.

Strangely, neither the assassins nor the guards of Prince Su's mansion stopped them.

Instead, they let them run outside.

As the monks turned around, their faces filled with horror, to see the fire in the Guanyin Hall growing ever larger, a joyful scream came from the direction of Xie Huaiyuan's meditation room in the distance: "Silver! Haha, there really is silver!!"

"This is all our hard-earned money! Dig it out quickly, let's dig it all out and take it to the authorities!"

The noise from the meditation room grew louder and louder.

The monks, unable to contain themselves any longer, rushed towards the meditation room.

This money is all they've saved up over the years. They'll need it all to live a carefree life after they leave the monastic life!

None of the monks even considered or hesitated about whether to save Xie Huaiyuan.

Instead, they rushed towards the abbot's meditation room like madmen.

Li Qingluo watched their frenzied backs before giving Sha Zi and the guards a look: "Go, protect those civilians from being bitten by these mad dogs."

More than forty monks and more than one hundred common people—who is more and who is less?

Moreover, if Li Qingluo hadn't intervened, these monks would probably have been beaten half to death long ago.

Now, these two groups will inevitably have another fierce fight over money.

These delicate monks would probably be no match for these farmers and peasant women.

Yet they still send people to protect them?

However, the Killers knew what their masters were thinking.

He immediately took off and followed.

Sure enough, screams soon came from the meditation room.

After Xie Huaiyuan was awakened again by Qingyangzi's acupuncture, he looked at the raging fire of the Guanyin Hall and let out a roar from the bottom of his throat: "No—"

"Moon—Moon!!"

Li Qingluo stepped forward and slapped him across the face.

"You think you can just casually call out Princess Qingyue's name?"

"Kill Er, cut out his tongue!"

Sha Er stepped forward: "Yes, miss!"

With a blank expression, he pulled out Xie Huaiyuan's tongue and slashed it off with a knife!
