The abbot led his men to the temple's kitchen, and Lin Xue and the others followed to check on the situation.

Many other caravan members also went along.

After all, if that wicked witch dared to poison and curse the food of the temple monks, it's hard to guarantee she wouldn't also harm their food.

The wicked witch always acts without reason, solely according to her own whims.

If it weren't for the heavy rain yesterday, the roads would be muddy and difficult to travel on.

The group didn't stay at the temple any longer; they had already set off.

"These foods are all good!"

"Starting today, I will check the ingredients every day before cooking to make sure that everyone is eating healthy food."

The abbot was aware of his disciples' concerns, so he could only make the extra trip himself.

After coming out of the kitchen, everyone dispersed and did not linger there.

Lin Xue returned to the courtyard where the caravan owner was staying, and the two were talking about when the caravan would depart.

"Although it's a cloudy day today, the wind is quite strong, so the ground should dry faster."

"However, if we want to continue our journey, we'll probably have to stay another day. We'll set off the day after tomorrow."

Before he could finish speaking, someone who shouldn't have been there entered the courtyard.

It was a man wearing a black cloak. When he took off his hat, they realized that he was the abbot they had just met.

"Respected Madam Magician, welcome to Peach Blossom Temple."

"I'm so sorry I didn't greet you earlier. I was really worried that things at our temple might affect your caravan!"

The abbot was clearly a person with high emotional intelligence; at least he didn't visit rashly and knew to put on an act.

Moreover, this was a truly enlightened monk; someone who could defeat the wicked witch was definitely no ordinary person.

The caravan owner had already quickly closed the gate the moment the monk revealed his face.

Then he took the two of them to his house.

"I have come here to ask for your help, Master Magician. The existence of that wicked witch has seriously affected the peace of Peach Blossom Temple."

"Although monks should not commit murder, I cannot bear to watch my disciples die one by one."

The abbot knew that encountering such a troublesome and vicious witch was a very troublesome matter.

Unless something else can distract them, these extreme thugs will keep harassing them.

Unless all the monks in the temple die or leave the temple.

Otherwise, the other party will keep pestering you.

"Does the abbot mean that I need to take action?"

From the moment Lin Xue saw the abbot, she knew his purpose.

It must be because he couldn't deal with that wicked witch by himself, so he wanted to bring Lin Xue along.

To be honest, Lin Xue also hated that wicked witch.

If she can keep the other party here this time, it will be a good thing for her.

How can you expect someone who can curse their savior to be kind to others?

The caravan owner had already left to avoid suspicion. Lin Xue discussed it with the abbot and finally decided that she would disguise herself as a young monk to lure out the wicked witch.

The abbot will find a way to hold off the enemy while he ambushes them from the shadows.

This is the general plan, but we still need to discuss the specific details.

night.

A bald young monk appeared inside the temple, anxiously heading towards the abbot's bedroom.

He was also holding a plate of food in his hand.

Those were very delicate-looking pastries.

The little monk muttered to himself as he walked.

"Please don't run into them, please don't run into them..."

"Demons and monsters, get out of here! Demons and monsters, get out of here!"

It fully reveals the image of cowardice and timidity.

The sight of this amazed the wicked witch hiding in a certain hall.

"Such a coward, yet he dares to come out and deliver food to that old geezer?"

But that's normal. If the young monk had strode forward fearlessly, she might have had some doubts.

But judging from his timid and cowardly yet brisk walking manner, it didn't seem like he was faking it.

The wicked witch emerged from her hiding place and quickly caught up with the white figure ahead.

His bald head gleamed in the moonlight.

The wicked witch saw this thing as a light in the night, a bit too bright.

She held out her palm.

If we could twist off this bald head and use it as a ball, that would be pretty good.

Just as she was about to make her move, the figure walking briskly in front of her suddenly stumbled and fell forward.

They narrowly avoided the evil witch's claw attack.

"Hiss~"

"Luckily, the pastry didn't spill, but it seems like I scraped my knee."

"Never mind, let's just give the things to the abbot first, and then ask my senior brother for some medicated oil to rub on it when we get back!"

The young monk seemed unaware of the figure standing behind him. Instead, he quickly dusted himself off and continued walking forward, carrying the food he had been carefully protecting in front of him.

The wicked witch's expression was one of utter bewilderment.

Her attack missed.

How did they manage to get through?

If the little monk's reaction hadn't been so normal, the wicked witch would have thought he was doing it on purpose.

"Demons and monsters, get out of here! Demons and monsters, get out of here!"

Watching the little monk mutter to himself as he walked away, the wicked witch hesitated for a moment, but ultimately followed after him.
