Chapter 453: Die with Unclosed Eyes
Jingxin acted as if she didn't hear anything, picked up the broom and walked towards the corridor.
Such a calm and indifferent reaction made the monks who deliberately bullied him feel bored.
When you bully someone, the more intense and angry the other person's reaction is, the more interesting it is.
Jingxin was not unaware that his reputation was ruined. On the way back to Guo Temple from the capital, the people scolded him and threw rotten eggs and vegetable leaves at him.
In the past, the abbot of the national temple was revered by everyone, and monks from all over the country came to pay homage to him.
Now, he is regarded as a demon monk by everyone, and everyone can curse and humiliate him.
Qiao Wanyan was standing in the corridor looking at him, with her head lowered and not noticing her passing by. Suddenly, she smelled the faint and rich fragrance and stopped.
The first thing you see is the skirt that shines brightly. The material is luxurious and the color is even, which immediately makes you think of who the owner of the skirt is.
Only that person dresses very exquisitely all day long.
With a face like that, she is already noticeable in a crowd, and with her careful dressing, it is even more difficult to take your eyes off her.
Jingxin didn't look at her.
"I don't believe you didn't do this."
I don't know when those monks left.
Qiao Wanyan smiled faintly and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I don't understand what you are saying."
Jingxin: "Use other people's hands to do what you want to do. I am so confused that I only focus on you."
Qiao Wanyan sighed softly, "You are really crazy. You did such a deceitful thing and still blame innocent people."
Jing Xin sneered, "Master was killed by you just because of a word. I know you are a vicious person with a strong desire for revenge, but I was careless."
"But Qiao Wanyan, do you think you can really have the last laugh?"
Qiao Wanyan shrugged and said, "If I don't laugh to the end, how can I still be you? You can't cause any trouble. If you could, you wouldn't bother to promote Qiao Yihuan to the position of county lady to disgust me, but directly ruin my reputation."
What was done back then was done cleanly and efficiently. If it weren't for Liu Yanran, no one would have known that Abbot Zhiyuan would die in his hands.
What kind of trouble can he cause without any evidence?
Qiao Wanyan walked up to him and looked him up and down. "Wearing such an ordinary monk's robe, you really look more like a demon monk. You could have been a good abbot, but you chose to seek your own death like this."
Jing Xin asked in a deep voice: "Did you come here today just to laugh at me?"
Qiao Wanyan smiled beautifully, "Of course, I'm very free every day. You can bring me joy, which is a blessing you have cultivated for several lifetimes. Demon monk? It suits you very well."
Jingxin's face was gloomy, "You will be punished!"
Qiao Wanyan raised her eyebrows slightly and slapped him, "You will suffer retribution, and your whole family will suffer retribution!"
She seemed to suddenly realize something after she finished speaking, "I forgot that you have no parents and your whole family has already suffered retribution. You are a disaster star. Your parents are dead and your master is dead. You are indeed a demon monk who has caused great harm to people."
Jingxin's big hands were clenched tightly under her sleeves, and she stared at her with a vicious look, but she was powerless.
The hatred that was engraved into his bones was so weak that it could not shake the other party in the slightest. This deep feeling of powerlessness made him even more miserable.
It is more painful than being bullied by those who flatter the powerful and look down on the weak.
Qiao Wanyan was very satisfied with his reaction. "This is the price you pay for offending me. You and your master are both equally stupid and unaware of it."
After the man left, Jingxin punched the pillar of the corridor.
This punch caused blood to appear on the back of his hand, but he didn't even blink.
"I won't let you go, never!"
The back mountain was very cool, so Qiao Wanyan asked Shen Lingyi to go there together.
"This pair of phoenix hairpins looks really nice on you, but the gemstones are a little dirty."
Shen Lingyi stroked the hairpin on her head gently, “I have tried many ways to get it clean but I can’t. I am very distressed recently.”
Qiao Wanyan smiled and said, "I know a skilled craftsman. Sister, why don't you give me the Shuangluan hairpin and I'll have someone make it for you."
Shen Lingyi pulled out the hairpin without hesitation, “Then thank you for your hard work.”
Qiao Wanyan said, "Sister, you are too polite."
The two of them strolled around for a while until the sound of bells rang from the temple. They then went back to have a vegetarian meal and then went back to rest.
I couldn't fall asleep, and I haven't been able to sleep for many days.
The huge gap tortured him to the point of wanting to die. Although he could pretend that he didn't care about anything during the day, once night fell, the feeling of loneliness wrapped in darkness would torture his mind even more.
In the summer, the windows are open.
Jingxin seemed to hear the door creaking and immediately sat up.
No, the door should be locked and cannot be opened from the outside, so why is there a sound of the door opening?
He frowned and planned to light the candle with a tinder to see what was going on, but before he could get out of bed, he felt a figure suddenly appear in front of the bed in the room under the faint moonlight, which scared him so much that his breathing stopped for a moment.
Just as he was about to speak, the figure in front of the bed quickly stuffed a handkerchief into his mouth.
The handkerchief contained colorless and odorless cartilage powder that was impossible to detect. In an instant, Jingxin's body went limp and she was unable to struggle.
The candle is still not lit.
There were candles lit in the Zen room, so it could be seen clearly from the outside.
Qiao Wanyan took off her cloak and hood. "You don't think that being called a demon monk is the end, do you?"
Jingxin was stunned, her mouth blocked and she couldn't utter a word.
Qiao Wanyan's voice was very soft, but in the silent Zen room, Jingxin could hear it clearly.
"What you did made me very angry. I haven't been this angry in a long time. So, today I will naturally watch you die in person, and let your reputation be ruined and you die in despair."
The night was too dark and Jingxin couldn't see her face, but listening to her cold and heartless voice, Jingxin felt a chill on her back for no reason.
Qiao Wanyan was too cautious, and she was careful in every step she took.
Now that his mouth was blocked, he couldn't even shout for people to come over. He could only become a fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others.
Suddenly, I saw a fire outside the window.
Jingxin's eyes widened. There was a fire outside? Would anyone notice her?
Qiao Wanyan seemed to have guessed what he was thinking and spoke kindly.
"You set the fire. You are a repeat offender. You set the fire this time because you were unwilling to accept the fact that you had lost your position as abbot and were bullied by others. So before you committed suicide, you wanted to burn down the entire national temple."
Ziyuan was very strong. A rope was hung on the beam, and Jingxin was hung by her neck on the rope.
The fire outside was growing brighter and brighter, and Jingxin finally saw Qiao Wanyan's face clearly.
It was an extremely beautiful face, and at this moment, it looked at him indifferently without any warmth at all, like a high and mighty Shura looking at a tiny ant.
"I've already said that accompanying your master is your destiny."
"How dare you offend me, you ignorant fellow?"
Be calm and die with your eyes open.
