A strong aura of fragments wafted over him. Heather closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "The fragments of the sacred artifact are calling us."
Qingwu craned his neck curiously, but Shikong grabbed his collar and said, "Go play somewhere else."
Qingwu took off and crashed headfirst into a tree trunk. He rubbed the bump on his forehead and cursed inwardly.
That damned bald monk, he uses you and then discards you, he has no martial ethics.
He didn't dare to curse aloud, he could only silently complain.
Ah! When he gets back, he'll complain to the God that China is too complicated and he wants to go back to Southeast Asia.
A dignified feng shui master like Qingwu couldn't stand being bossed around by monks every day.
Heather said coldly, "Monk, what are you doing? Hurry up and come down with me to find the fragments."
Shi Kong gestured for him to go first, saying, "You go first."
Heather jumped down the steps and looked inside. The hole was getting smaller and smaller, only big enough for one person to pass through at a time.
She urged the two people above, "The aura of the sacred artifact fragments is getting stronger. You two should come down quickly. If the fragments are stolen again, we won't be able to explain it to the God Lord."
Shi Kong smiled brightly and said, "Okay."
Hearing his agreement, Qingwu endured the pain, got up, and obediently walked towards the cave entrance.
He muttered to himself as he walked, "I'm fragile, so I'll stay in the middle. You guys take turns protecting me, one in front and one behind, or I won't go down."
Just as Heatherd was about to nod, a huge hand slammed down on her head, and she fell into the bottom of the hole without warning.
This is a monk's move, the Vajra Palm.
The monk suddenly attacked her, knocking her down below!
Heather shouted, "Monk! You're crazy!!"
Everything happened so fast, Qingwu was stunned, "She, you, you..."
The monk actually attacked his teammate! Was he planning to kill him and bury the body?!
Heatherd fell into a strange hole, and the monk's next target was him!
Qingwu's legs felt weak, his feet felt like they were filled with lead, and he wanted to run but couldn't move at all.
Shi Kong's smile vanished, and he stared coldly at the dark entrance to the cave.
The Buddha said: All phenomena are empty, but cause and effect are not. Those who commit grave sins of killing will enter the hell realm and will never be able to be human again for all eternity.
Heatherd and her pet face-smearer have committed countless murders; they are heinous and deserve to die!
Master Shi Kong put his hands together in prayer and recited a rebirth mantra, "Namo Amitabha Buddha, dear benefactors, may you have a safe journey."
The eerie chanting of scriptures echoed in his ears, and Qingwu became even more frightened, trembling uncontrollably.
Should the monk perform a physical ritual to send him to the afterlife?!
Ahh! The monk really was a traitor! An undercover agent!!
My Lord God, please come and save us!
Shi Kong took out a wooden fish and struck it three times. A large rock bounced around and blocked the entrance to the cave.
He said meaningfully, "This is just the beginning."
Qingwu collapsed, standing there trembling.
The demon who reaps heads has arrived, he has arrived.
Shi Kong glanced at him, "What are you shaking for?"
Qingwu clutched its head and screamed, "Don't kill me! My head was flattened when I was little. It's ugly and doesn't taste good."
"Oh?" Shi Kong said with a smile, "I like flat heads, they're crunchy."
Qingwu was terrified.
The witch Heather was struck down by the monk's palm. As a fragile feng shui master, she couldn't escape the monk's grasp.
Knowing he couldn't escape, Qingwu said weakly, "Could you be gentler? I'm afraid of pain."
Shi Kong gently slapped him on the hand, "What did you just see?"
Qingwu was stunned.
Huh? The fact that they didn't just chop off his head proves there's a turning point; the monk probably doesn't want to kill anyone today.
Qingwu quickly denied it three times: "I don't know, I didn't see it, I didn't hear it. Heather accidentally fell, and we tried to save her but it was too late."
Shi Kong nodded in satisfaction. "Let's go."
Qingwu's eyes widened. He really wasn't going to kill him?
Shi Kong smiled enigmatically, "Not leaving? Want to go down and keep Western women company?"
"No, no." Qingwu used all her strength to rush forward. "Let's go down the mountain, we'll go down the mountain right away."
Shi Kong grabbed his collar with one hand, "You must remember, we are teammates."
Qingwu nodded frantically, "Master Shikong, I understand."
Waaaaah, I can never change teammates again, and I'm forced to keep the monk's secret.
What is he now?
The undercover boss's scapegoat?
Ah, this is so hard for him.
Qingwu decided to find out, "Master Shikong, what's next?"
Shi Kong said calmly, "Find the fragments."
"ah?"
Qingwu didn't understand. Wasn't the monk an undercover agent? Why was he still looking for fragments? He should just lead his men into the organization's lair and wipe them all out.
This idea was too dangerous, so Qingwu decided to play it safe and take it one step at a time.
My Lord, I didn't mean it, I was forced to, sob sob sob.
Shi Kong released his foolish teammate, clasped his hands together, and bowed to the sky.
Master, if you steal a fragment, return it, and give me a small gift as a bonus. I promise I won't let you have it next time.
The next fragment will definitely be his!
...
On the other side, Lin Xi, Yun Yan, Daoist Jing Yuan, Gu Qingqing, Niao Feifei, and Bao Jinbi were still walking up the steps.
Leopard Coin grew increasingly agitated, yelling, "Damn it, this is never going to end!"
After walking down the steps, they encountered flat steps, and in total, they walked down an unknown number of steps.
Master Jingyuan raised his hand, "Shh, something's coming."
Everyone immediately fell silent. After a while, Leopard Gold Coin glanced around furtively like a thief, then whispered, "What's that?"
Lin Xi stood at the front and calmly replied, "Zombies, there are many of them."
Master Jingyuan nodded emphatically, “At least fifty.”
Bird Feifei teased, "Oh, Taoist priest, your IQ has finally come online."
Master Jingyuan raised his chin and said, “I have been exceptionally intelligent since childhood and have never looked down on anyone.”
As a zombie compass, judging the number of zombies by sound is a piece of cake for him.
Before he could finish showing off, a whole bunch of zombies attacked—white ones, black ones, and even some green ones.
The dense horde of zombies instantly surrounded everyone. Just as Master Jingyuan was about to draw his sword, he suddenly realized that his handcuffs were still on.
"Holy crap! My disciple, you've really screwed me over."
