When the abbot brought us to this place, Luo Tianhe and I prepared to go in first, but even so, I continued to observe the abbot.
Because this old guy has a criminal record, he only has one target, and that is Luo Tianhe.
So here I am, gripping the Thunderstrike Sword tightly in my hand. If this old bastard makes any move, I will take him down as quickly as possible.
Sure enough, the moment Luo Tianhe lowered his guard, the abbot regained his senses and charged directly at Luo Tianhe.
He wanted to absorb the energy from Luo Tianhe.
I kept this abbot around because I wanted to get some valuable information from him, but now it seems that it's pointless.
I gripped the lightning sword in my hand and stabbed the abbot through the heart with lightning speed.
Abbot Hongshi never realized that I was the one who killed him until he died.
"Actually, we should have just taken action. There's no time to waste talking to him like this. We should have just killed him and been done with it!"
I drew my Thunderstrike Sword and spat fiercely at his corpse. This guy really wasted our time time and time again.
"That's right, that's right! We should have killed him just now. We've given him so many chances, and he still doesn't appreciate them!"
Old Knife and Ant turned around and made a comment about the old monk's corpse.
"Why are these guys so lusting after my body? I'm not a woman!"
Luo Tianhe was also quite helpless and complained to the two of us.
I thought to myself that Luo Tianhe's body was quite extraordinary. Putting aside everything else, his tears alone had a great effect. I guessed that Luo Tianhe might have some hidden secrets.
However, even Luo Tianhe himself is not entirely clear about these secrets, and we still need to dig deeper to find out.
That solved the problem. After the old monk, the five of us walked together into the temple of the Goddess of Fertility.
At this moment, I opened the booklet again, and as expected, two lines of small print appeared on it.
"Dispel evil spirits!"
"Do not harm the innocent!"
I read those two lines of small print aloud in front of everyone. Although they were just a few words, they conveyed a great deal of information.
Firstly, there is indeed a great demon statue beneath this temple dedicated to the Goddess of Fertility!
The second point is that there are also some innocent lives in this Songzi Niangniang Temple.
"I understand eliminating demons, but where does the innocence come from?"
Luo Tianhe moved closer to me, holding the booklet and slowly began to speak.
I then told Luo Tianhe a little story that I had heard before.
A long time ago, when someone in the village couldn't have a child, they would try to come to the temple to pray for a child. The method at that time was to have the woman stay in the temple for seven or eight days.
Then, out of nowhere, I got pregnant.
After hearing this, Lao Dao and the others couldn't help but tremble.
"Brother Chen, I understand the plot you're talking about. You mean the reason these women can't get pregnant isn't their problem, but rather that their husbands have a problem!"
Old Dao's imagination was as rich as ever, and he immediately thought of this key plot point.
I nodded and told Lao Dao that's exactly how it is; the monks in those temples aren't just sitting around doing nothing.
They all used this method to release their physical desires.
"By the way, Ji Xinglan, you just told me you smelled blood here. Can you still smell it now?"
I remembered what Ji Xinglan had just said, and then I turned around to look at Ji Xinglan.
Ji Xinglan nodded emphatically after listening.
"The smell of blood is incredibly strong, right here! And I suspect there must be some special space down there, otherwise it wouldn't be so well isolated!"
Ji Xinglan sniffed hard several times before raising her head and looking at me with a serious expression.
Ji Xinglan told me that it was definitely here.
I took a deep breath, made sufficient preparations, and then quickly ran to the Guanyin statue and placed my hand on it.
It had a very unique tactile feel. Normal Guanyin statues have an earthy texture, but this one didn't.
It looked a bit like snot stuck to a stone; it was quite sticky, and when I smelled it, it had a peculiar fishy odor.
If there weren't so many people watching, I probably would have thrown up in front of them already.
"Something's not right with this Buddha statue, Lao Dao, make your move!"
I looked back at Lao Dao, who already understood. Having worked with me for so long, Lao Dao knew my habits inside and out. When I told Lao Dao to make a move, it usually meant that Lao Dao would just kick me.
Old Dao has never disappointed me in this regard. After gathering his strength, he kicked the Buddha statue.
The next second, the Guanyin statue was shattered into pieces, and under the statue, we found a special little switch.
"Brother Chen, you're amazing! How did you know there was something down there?!"
Old Dao crouched down and saw the switch below. He quickly turned it, and then the wall behind us suddenly opened.
Sure enough, there was something else going on here. Old Dao gave me a thumbs up and praised me highly.
I didn't try to be modest; instead, I responded with a smile.
Before following us, Lao Dao and Ant used their daggers to cut up Abbot Hongshi's body again.
I turned around and asked them why they did this. Old Dao told me that the old monk was being too forceful, and if we didn't guard against him, he would betray us sooner or later. After listening, I nodded slightly.
They were right. No matter how you look at it, Abbot Hongshi is no good person. Even though I've already dealt him a severe blow, there's no guarantee he won't have other tricks up his sleeve.
Seeing this, Ji Xinglan took the two short swords from my hands. These short swords were originally given to her by me.
When we first parted, I temporarily kept it in Ji Xinglan's possession. Now that we've met again, I naturally want to return it to its rightful owner.
Ji Xinglan took the two short swords and, without any hesitation, directly beheaded Hongshi, completing the entire process in one go.
It was a bit alarming to watch; even I couldn't remain calm and collected in such a ruthless way of resolving things.
After his head was cut off, Abbot Hongshi's eyes actually twitched.
Then, it suddenly opened its eyes, a state that really startled us all.
Abbot Hongshi opened his mouth and slowly spoke to Ji Xinglan.
"I never expected that I would be defeated by a little girl. However, even if you kill me, you cannot defeat the Demon Lord!"
"My Lord Demon Lord, my mission is complete!"
Hongshi laughed loudly, his expression turning quite grotesque.
