Chapter 174 Another Confrontation
Yunshan Temple is crowded with pilgrims, and the abbot of the temple is so respected that even His Majesty has to give him some respect.
Although the monks in the temple all believe in being kind to others and saving all living beings, if anyone dares to cause trouble in the temple, no matter who the person is, the strong monks will take the person to the discipline hall and punish him severely.
Wei Lingze didn't dare to look for someone in a high-profile manner. He quietly used his lightness skills to search around the temple.
However, after searching for a long time, he did not see Lan Shu and the masked boy, nor did he see Xiao Qinghe and Princess Hengyang.
The longer he searched for someone, the more anxious Wei Lingze became.
Reason told him that he should stay calm. Even if He'er was really interested in the substitute in Wuyou Pavilion, she would not do anything shameful with that kind of person. However, his mind kept thinking of the scene of the male prostitute kneeling in front of He'er and flattering her.
Unlike his brutal and terrifying behavior these days, the male prostitute was gentle and humble. He would do anything to please his patron. Which woman who was neglected and abused by her husband could bear it?
Moreover, Wuyou Pavilion has so many secret medicines that can arouse people's passion. What if He'er accidentally falls into the trap and is seduced by that male prostitute?
The scene in his mind gradually became more beautiful. Wei Lingze was extremely anxious. He had completely forgotten that the news was leaked by Mo Yunwan. It was very likely a trap set by Chunxi. His mind was full of thoughts of finding Xiao Qinghe as soon as possible, bringing her home, never letting her go out again, and not giving her any chance to contact those people in Wuyou Pavilion!
So where is He'er now?
Wei Lingze gritted his teeth in anxiety, and suddenly his peripheral vision caught sight of a figure passing quickly around the corner.
The man's clothes looked a bit like sparrow branches.
Wei Lingze immediately chased after him, but in a flash, "Quezhi" disappeared.
Wei Lingze frowned, feeling something was wrong when a woman's scream suddenly came from not far away.
He'er!
Wei Lingze immediately dispelled his doubts and quickly rushed towards the source of the sound.
After a while, a quiet Zen temple came into view.
There were people guarding outside the Zen temple, and their clothes looked very similar to those of the guards brought by Princess Hengyang.
This is it.
Wei Lingze's eyes glared. He wanted to avoid the guards and go straight into the courtyard to check the situation, but they quickly noticed and stopped him: "The master has ordered that anyone who trespasses will be killed!"
More than ten guards surrounded Wei Lingze. At the same time, sounds of giggles and panting were heard from the yard.
"Don't be like this, I'm shy..."
Wei Lingze was suddenly filled with murderous intent. His eyes turned red with rage, and he started fighting with the guards with his sword in hand.
He was so furious that more than ten guards couldn't stop him.
About an incense stick later, Wei Lingze, holding the blood-stained sword and injured, walked into the Zen temple step by step and went straight to the closed Zen room.
The moment he raised his hand to push open the door of the meditation room, the door suddenly opened, a cold light flashed, and Xiao Yechen, wearing a mask, rushed out of the room.
Wei Lingze immediately retreated, but a small cut was still left on his cheek.
A fake actually wanted to kill him, the real owner?
His anger reached its peak, and Wei Lingze immediately drew his sword and fought back.
After the fight, Wei Lingze became even more frightened.
Many of the moves used by this fake are actually the same as his.
This person knew him and had been secretly watching him for many years, otherwise he would never have been able to imitate him to such an extent!
So this person has been coveting He'er for a long time?
When did he start approaching He'er? What kind of face was hidden under the mask? When did He'er know of his existence?
Countless questions flooded his mind, and Wei Lingze's sword moves began to have flaws. Xiao Yechen seized the opportunity and kicked Wei Lingze's wrist, knocking the sword out of his hand, and at the same time put the sword against his neck.
The outcome is decided.
He lost.
Wei Lingze gritted his teeth and stared at the provocative and complacent eyes under the mask. He didn't believe that this male prostitute would really dare to kill him. He said coldly: "Get out of here, you bastard!"
Xiao Yechen didn't roll away. Instead, he used his wrist to exert a little force and cut Wei Lingze's neck, proving with his actions that there was nothing he dared not do.
The stinging pain in his neck made Wei Lingze furious. He was about to go crazy when a gloomy and cold voice came: "Master Wei, you injured my guards. What are you trying to do by breaking into my Zen temple?"
Wei Lingze froze all over, turned his head in disbelief, and saw King Ying with a frosty face.
Lan Shu stood behind Prince Ying, grabbing his sleeve, tears in her eyes, like a pure and harmless rabbit: "Master Wei, I really didn't deliberately sprinkle the Soul-Snatching Incense on you last time. You bumped into me, and many people saw it. Why did you chase me here to kill me?"
Unlike the previous times they met, Lan Shu's voice was very thin and soft, like a woman's. At first glance, the tone sounded very similar to Xiao Qinghe, but upon closer listening, it was no longer the same.
Wei Lingze was struck by lightning. Looking at Xiao Yechen again, the face under the mask did not look like his own.
At this time, Wei Lingze realized that he had fallen into a trap. However, before he could explain, the monks in the temple rushed to protect King Ying. Shen Qingyu, who was originally going to be taken to the Discipline Hall for punishment, also rushed over in the chaos.
Shen Qingyu didn't see the situation in the Zen temple clearly. When he saw Wei Lingze as he entered, he felt that he had a backer. He shouted with full confidence: "What an adulterous couple! How dare you do such a dirty thing in the pure land of Buddhism? I will tie you up and parade you through the streets and put you in a pig cage today!"
Shen Qingyu kept making a lot of noise along the way, attracting many pilgrims to come and watch the fun.
Prince Ying's face turned completely dark.
It would be bad enough if his fun was disturbed, but he was also pointed at and called an adulterer. Where was his dignity left?
"How dare you! Who gave you the courage to speak so arrogantly in front of me?"
Prince Ying stepped forward quickly and knocked Shen Qingyu to the ground with one punch.
Shen Qingyu's head was buzzing, and his mouth was moving faster than his brain. He looked at Wei Lingze in confusion: "Where is Madam Wei? Isn't she with Cao Chunxi?"
idiot!
Wei Lingze wished he could stab Shen Qingyu to death with a single sword.
Sure enough, after hearing Shen Qingyu's words, Prince Ying sneered: "So Master Wei is here to catch his new wife committing adultery. This Zen temple is only inhabited by male guests. Master Wei doesn't know the way, so I will take him there myself."
"Your Highness, there's a misunderstanding here," Wei Lingze explained hastily, glaring at Lan Shu and Xiao Yechen. "They deliberately set me up to come here. I didn't mean to offend Your Highness."
Prince Ying refused to listen and grabbed Wei Lingze as they strode towards the Zen temple where the women lived. "Master Wei, there's no need to rush to explain. When we meet Madam Wei later, there'll be plenty of time to explain things slowly!"
Prince Ying's guards were beaten to pieces by Wei Lingze and fell to the ground screaming in pain. The monks of Yunshan Temple were unable to stop them and could only send someone to notify the abbot.
The pilgrims had never seen such a lively atmosphere in the temple, so they all followed along.
After a while, a group of people came to the Zen temple where Princess Hengyang was.
