Chapter 136 135. The nun doesn't want people to know that she is so coquettish in private, right? (A long chapter asking for monthly votes!)

This Zen room is on the left side of the main hall, and the overall building presents a quadrangular shape.

Outside, at the foot of the mountain, there are various pine and cypress trees planted, lush and green.

The mountain breeze is cool and pleasant.

The Dharma Hall of Huian, the abbot of Jikong Temple, is located directly north of the Zen room, the largest and most spacious room.

At this moment, Huian was hiding in the room, sitting cross-legged on a cushion, with one hand clasped together, holding a rosary, and reciting scriptures as the beads moved and the pages of the book turned.

Just suddenly.

The rosary that was spinning rapidly in his hand suddenly stopped.

The Buddhist scripture, which had been turned to the next page, was blown back to the previous page by the wind.

next moment.

Abbot Huian, whose face was still swollen, suddenly opened his eyes.

He faintly heard strange conversations coming from the yard.

This voice is somewhat familiar.

Huian immediately frowned and stood up. His narrow white eyebrows above his shrewd eyes drooped over the swollen flesh on his temples, and he slowly walked to the window.

He pushed the window open a crack and took a look outside.

scare!
It would have been better if he hadn't looked. When Abbot Huian saw clearly the man and woman standing in the yard outside, his face suddenly changed color. His face, which was originally flushed under his bruised face, turned pale and bloodless in an instant.

"Didn't I tell them to stop that long-tongued nun?"

Hui'an was immediately extremely anxious.

This Ciyun nun cannot be hit or scolded, she can only passively accept the beatings. If there is anything that makes her unhappy, she will be beaten up.

The key is that he can't fight back.

According to etiquette, although the two men belonged to different branches of Buddhism and had different generations, Master Boro's status was there, so what did he, a mere abbot, count for?
From a common sense point of view, everything Liuli did was to save the world and the people, and it was in the interests of justice, so he had no way of opposing it!
In terms of cultivation, he was only at the Inner Perfection stage, and had not yet entered the Grandmaster's realm.

How could he be a match for Liuli, who was at the Half-Step Divine Yuan Realm?

If I can't afford to offend you, can I not hide from you?

But I didn't expect that even though I hid in the Zen room or the Dharma Hall, this nun was still haunting me!
Damn it, it must be Huiming’s grandson who did this!

This bastard has been coveting the position of abbot for a long time!

Do you want to use this long-tongued nun to eliminate me?
Abbot Huian couldn't help but feel a little angry.

And at this moment.

His eyes suddenly focused, his pupils dilated rapidly, and his eyes were dull and full of disbelief.

What did he see?
The dignified Nun Ciyun was the last disciple of Zen Master Pu Luo and a female nun who was very influential in the Buddhist community!

She was like a little girl with love in her heart, and was forcibly embraced by that strange man?
scare!
The Divine Nun Ciyun... wants to be a mortal being?
Abbot Huian looked confused.

However, he did not speak out immediately, but just stared quietly.

This is big news, enough to shock the entire Buddhist community and even most of the martial arts world!

The dignified Nun Ciyun, the disciple of Zen Master Pu Luo, was actually having an affair with a strange young man, and in this forbidden place of Buddhism. It was so shocking!
If this gets out, it will definitely be an earth-shattering event!

I’m afraid that even Master Boro will have to come out of retreat!

Abbot Huian narrowed his eyes slightly, and a sneer rose in his heart.

……

[Hint: The host saved her in time, and Liuli was very happy with her sweet words. She was very excited that she could attract the host so much. Her loyalty value increased by 1%, and the current loyalty value is 55%! ]

Look at the information that pops up in the system.

Ning Mu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Having not experienced the era of information explosion, women are just so easy to please!
Just a few half-true and half-false phrases that were common in the previous life were enough to make a noble person like Ciyun Shen Ni so happy that she lost her mind.

Liuli rolled her beautiful eyes and glared at Ning Mu in shame. Although she leaned in his arms, she still pursed her lips and said with sparkling eyes, "You still don't want to eat or drink. I think you are too happy to leave, right?"

This bastard is busy all day long.

Although there are not countless women around him, he is surrounded by many beautiful women, and almost all of them are stunningly beautiful.

Even those little maids were twin sisters picked from thousands of people.

There are also many beautiful wives like Liu Qingmei and heads of wealthy families like Jin Xiangyu.

With such a beautiful woman's kindness, how could he lose his appetite?
What a liar!
Despite her coquettish look, Liuli actually felt quite happy inside.

The uncontrollable smile on her lips showed her inner joy and excitement at the moment.

Obviously, Ning Mu's words were very helpful to her.

Even though she knew it was half true and half false, she was still happy to be the one being deceived.

"Holding Nun like this, I am truly happy and don't want to leave!"

Ning Mu smiled, and the hand that was around Liuli's slender waist slowly moved down.

As soon as he finished speaking, he lowered his head slightly and gave Liuli a gentle kiss on her smooth and white forehead.

"Hmm~"

Liuli subconsciously closed her eyes and made a pleasant nasal sound.

"Ouch!"

But at this moment.

Liuli's ears moved, and then she pushed Ning Mu away and looked towards the direction of the Dharma Hall with a stern gaze.

"who!"

"come out!"

Liuli shouted coldly, with a cold look in her eyes.

at the same time.

Abbot Huian, who was standing by the window in the Dharma Hall, had a slightly changed expression.

How can you be so lacking in concentration?
He kept blaming himself in his heart.

But if anyone were to encounter such a situation, they would subconsciously exclaim in surprise.

After all, the woman kissed by the man was not an ordinary nun, but the Nun Ciyun who had suppressed Buddhism for hundreds of years, was the last disciple of the dignified Zen Master Pu Luo, and was a well-known and powerful nun in the world!

Such a god-like woman, and she is also a nun.

But she leaned in the man's arms and was kissed by the young man.

Anyone who sees this scene will be amazed and shocked!
After a moment's hesitation, Huian frowned, pushed open the door of the Dharma Hall, stepped over the threshold and walked out.

But I was not panicked at all.

After all, they have already mastered the secret of Ciyun Shen Ni.

The advantage is mine!

If she dares to act recklessly again, the secret will be made public, and then she will become the object of scorn of the entire Buddhist community!
"I never thought that it was the nun who came to visit me. I was not able to welcome her. I just wonder who this young man beside her is..."

After coming out, Huian's expression showed a hint of pride.

It seemed like he was complimenting Liuli, but in fact, the look and tone of his voice clearly threatened her.

Although there seemed to be doubt in his words, the affirmative tone seemed to tell Liuli that he had witnessed everything that had just happened with his own eyes.

Liuli's brows slightly frowned, and her face suddenly became gloomy.

There was a hint of shyness in her deep eyes.

As smart as she is, how could she not hear the threat in Abbot Huian's words.

But killing someone just because he or she witnessed one's secret is really against the Buddhist teachings.

Although she was decisive in killing the members of the Demon Cult.

But the Abbot Huian in front of her was a Buddhist after all, and she couldn't bear to kill him rashly.

"Abbot, I am here to show you the magnificence of our Buddhist sect. I was blinded by the wind and sand just now, so please help me brush away the sand. Do you understand?"

Liuli stared at Abbot Huian coldly, and there was also a threat in her words.

But even as he spoke, a hint of shyness unconsciously slipped across his eyes.

Telling lies with open eyes is really against the teachings of Buddhism.

Without waiting for the stunned Huian to speak, Liuli spoke again: "I heard from your temple's head monk Huiming that the abbot went down the mountain to beg for alms. Is he back now?"

"I wonder how much silver and grain we can get?"

"Don't worry, I won't ask you for these things this time. You just need to do your best to repair the main hall of your temple and comfort the victims. That's enough."

First there are threats, then there are promises.

This gave Abbot Huian a reassurance.

The world of martial arts is made up of human relationships and worldly wisdom!

After hearing Liuli's words, Abbot Huian understood what she meant.

Of course he could keep it a secret.

But since it is a secret, it naturally has a price.

And the price of this secret is obviously more than that!

Before that, 300,000 kilograms of grain were taken away from him, the main hall was overturned by Liuli, and he himself was beaten.

Just by promising not to ask for anything anymore, you want to cover up the secret?
It has to be said that although Ciyun Shen Ni has a noble status, she is still too young.

Abbot Huian smiled mysteriously and did not refute Liuli. Instead, he said calmly, "Since the nun and the donor have come to my humble temple, I will take you on a tour. The nun can also take a look at the progress of the project. I will also talk to you about begging for alms. How about that..."

Humanity is so sophisticated.

Some things cannot be decided in an instant.

Look around more, walk around more, maybe Shen Ni will think about it carefully and increase the price?
Abbot Huian felt very proud.

Liuli raised her eyebrows slightly. She heard the pride and complacency in Abbot Huian's tone. It was obvious that he did not intend to give up.

But he didn't make any excessive demands, so she couldn't get angry for the time being.

He could only look at Ning Mu and nodded, agreeing to his request.

Indeed, this is a good opportunity to see how the project is progressing and whether the disaster victims who are working here are getting the relief they deserve.

Thinking of this, Liuli could only temporarily suppress the panic in her heart and walked towards the main hall with Abbot Huian.

Ning Mu touched his nose, slowed down his pace, and followed behind Liuli.

Naturally, he also heard the threat in Zen Master Huian's words.

This old bald donkey has no good intentions.

After thinking about it, he opened the system panel.

It just so happens that I haven’t issued any new tasks to Liuli for a few days.

Edit the task instantly and send it directly.

Liuli, who was walking, suddenly stopped.

【Tip: You have a new task! 】

[Task 3: Are you worried that this beast will make your affair with your partner Ning Mu public? Have you already wanted to kill Hui An, but can't bear to kill him due to the Buddhist rules? But you must understand that if you don't kill him, you will be controlled by him forever. A corrupt and black-hearted abbot does not deserve your sympathy! ]

[Mission details: Kill Abbot Hui'an with one strike before he reveals your secret! ]

[Mission Reward: 0.5 pieces of Nine-transformation Divine Yuan Pill! 1000 training points, 100 companion points! ]

[Mission failed: If the secret is revealed to the public, Master Pu Luo may destroy your cultivation and make you a joke in the martial arts world and a scum of Buddhism...]

Seeing this task suddenly appear, Liuli couldn't help but be distracted for a moment.

Yes!

If you don't kill him, you will be controlled by him!

Moreover, this system, which is comparable to the will of heaven, has said that Abbot Huian is corrupt and has a black heart.

It's conceivable that he really has problems.

Otherwise the system would not say so.

Obviously, Liuli's trust in the system has reached a new level.

After reading the mission details, Liuli subconsciously glanced at Ning Mu.

Seeing her suddenly stop, Abbot Hui'an was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously: "Shen Ni, what's wrong?"

Liuli looked at Hui'an's swollen pig head calmly with cold eyes, then shook her head and said, "It's okay, lead the way!"

Zen Master Huian did not suspect anything and took her and Ning Mu to the main hall again.

He had no idea that at this moment, the nun Ciyun had already decided to kill him!
"Yoho! Yoho~"

Not long after.

Then you can hear the workers' uniform shouts faintly.

The main hall protected by bamboo frames was now right in front of us.

Hundreds of workers surrounded the main body of this majestic building, each doing different work. Various craftsmen were scattered around the periphery, pointing and talking to the workers working on the construction site.

Simultaneously.

There were also dozens of monks from the martial arts academy holding whips or sticks, with stern expressions, scolding, beating, or supervising the laborers.

If they encounter laborers who move slowly or make mistakes, the monks from the martial arts academy will hit them hard with the long whips or sticks in their hands.

In front of an open space not far away.

There were several rows of workers waiting for their meals.

The fire-head monk was arranging the monks and preparing meals for them.

It can be said to be food.

Each laborer was only given half a bowl of porridge, which was so thin that one could see his or her own reflection in it.

But the laborers were all silent, drinking the porridge in silence. After drinking, they could not get a moment's rest, but were driven by the supervising monk to continue working.

Their eyes were numb, as if they had already gotten used to it.

Looking at this scene, Liuli frowned frequently.

Ning Mu also frowned.

He never considered himself a good person, but when he saw the disaster victims being treated like cattle and horses, he suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart for no reason.

In theory, he is at the top of the food chain in this life and cannot empathize with people at the bottom of the society.

But it is undeniable that he has not forgotten the experience of being a cow or a horse in his previous life.

"Is the food you gave them so simple?"

Liuli walked over and saw that the food in one of the women's bowl was almost all rice soup. She turned around and stared at Huian coldly.

"Well, Shenni, you know that our temple is indeed in trouble. We originally had 300,000 kilograms of food reserves to deal with this emergency, but didn't you take that food away?"

Huian was not at all flustered. He spoke in an apologetic manner, looking at Liuli and spreading his hands as if helpless.

But that shrewd look revealed a smug look of "even so, what can you do to me?"

Liuli was speechless.

Hui'an put all the blame on her, and she really had nothing to say.

It is true that 300,000 kilograms of grain were taken away.

However, as the largest temple in Yonghang, it is absolutely impossible for Jikong Temple to have only 300,000 kilograms of grain reserves.

But she was not from Jikong Temple, and she could not enter the granary of Jikong Temple, nor did she have an account book.

Hui'an said so and she had no way to refute it.

With a cold snort, Liuli walked through the victims one by one in silence, and then came to the bottom of the main hall.

Ning Mu followed her and understood how the temple operated.

It never stops, leaving the victims only enough time for lunch.

After finishing half a bowl of porridge, he didn't even have a chance to relieve himself before being urged by the supervisor to get on the scaffolding to work again.

There is no need to urinate at all.

In the busy life, all the moisture in the thin porridge will evaporate as sweat.

Ning Mu grabbed a disaster victim.

"How much do you eat every day, and how many hours do you work?"

The victim glanced at the abbot Huian with his numb eyes. Seeing that the abbot did not react, he shrank his neck and said timidly, "Two meals, half a bran steamed bun every other day, and two hours of rest every night. The rest of the time cannot delay the construction period..."

Hui'an remained calm and not worried at all when faced with the truth told by the victims.

Listening to the victims' words, Liuli's brows furrowed even more tightly!

Only half a steamed bun for two days, and it was made of bran!

Such heavy physical labor, and they have no spiritual foundation to rely on, how can they persist in such hard work?
The pretty face was covered with dark clouds.

She felt guilty.

It was originally well-intentioned, and they persuaded Jikong Temple to allow these disaster victims to work in exchange for relief, so that they could have a chance to survive.

But they never thought that in the end they would be sent into the abyss with their own hands.

Such heavy labor would probably completely drain a person's physical strength in no time.

"Huian, you're going too far!"

Liuli immediately stared at Abbot Huian and scolded him coldly.

However, Hui An was not in a hurry. He looked at the disaster victim and shouted, "Why are you dawdling for so long?"

Then he looked at a young monk holding a long whip not far away.

"Jikong, what do you do as an overseer?"

Hearing the abbot's call, the young monk named Jikong immediately rushed over with a whip in hand, and then swung the whip at the victim's back.

"Good!" When Jikong came over, Hui'an looked at Liuli, chanted a Buddhist name, and smiled calmly, "What you said is unorthodox, Shenni. Construction is not such a simple matter. If we are not strict, how can we manage so many people?"

Then, he turned his head and looked at Ning Mu who was silent at the side, and said with a smile: "Donor Ning, you look rich and noble. You came to my temple and saw the difficulties it faces. Buddha is merciful. Donor Ning, why don't you donate some money to increase your blessings and get rid of some demonic obstacles?"

"I think that for the sake of the nun's reputation, Donor Ning will be generous with his alms, right?"

Huian looked at Ning Mu with a forced smile, and the intention in his words was already very obvious.

He relied on the secret of Ning Mu and Liu Li that he knew to blackmail Ning Mu and force him to pay a sum of money. Of course, this sum alone was not enough to put the secret to rest.

Once this gap is opened, I'm afraid there will be no end.

Liuli frowned.

He didn't listen to Huian's words, but simply raised his hand and swung the whisk in his hand.

Instantly.

Not far away, Ji Kong was holding a long whip that was about to hit the victim on the back, but was stopped by a powerful force.

Followed by.

The ferocious Ji Kong was blown away by the powerful force and fell on a stone statue not far away.

There was a boom.

Cracks suddenly appeared on the stone statue.

Ji Kong's body fell from the waist of the stone statue and fell to the ground, his life or death unknown.

The powerful impact left him no chance to react, and he went straight to see the Buddha.

A large amount of blood spurted out of his mouth.

"Shenni!"

Abbot Huian's expression changed and he was about to stop him.

But how could he stop the Divine Nun Ciyun who was half a step into the Divine Yuan realm?
Before he could finish the next words, Liuli turned around, stared at him coldly, and said in a cold tone: "Abbot, I have a piece of advice for you, disaster comes from the mouth!"

In the underworld, sometimes you have to rely on fighting and killing!

Hearing this, Hui An's expression changed slightly, and his eyes were filled with fear.

He had never expected that the dignified Nun Ciyun, a representative figure of Buddhism, could be so cruel and ruthless to her juniors who were also her peers!
then.

Liuli snorted coldly, and then looked towards a place not far away where three or five victims were being beaten by two monks with long whips and Arhat sticks.

Huian was horrified and shouted quickly, "Jiming, Jixing, stop it now!"

But, he had just finished speaking.

The whole person was completely dumbfounded.

Liuli snorted coldly, kicked his feet, rushed forward quickly, and then struck out with a palm. The powerful air wave was as solid as a substance, and the palm wind went straight to the faces of the two monks Ji Ming and Ji Xing.

Because of the empty space, there is no clothing covering the inside of the Bodhi Jade Lotus Zen robe.

Therefore, Liuli did not dare to fly into the sky, but instead performed his moves on the ground.

"Puff~puff~"

With two loud bangs, Ji Ming and Ji Xing were hit in the face by the palm wind, and then they flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, just like Ji Kong. Their bodies even turned upside down in the air before falling heavily to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

This sudden scene completely stunned the victims who were working on the scaffolding.

They looked terrified and trembling as they watched this sudden scene.

The monks at the nearby Jikong Temple were also trembling with fear.

Even many timid people quickly threw away the whips and sticks in their hands, and looked at Liuli with fear and awe in their eyes.

This aunt is here again!
The scene of the Great Hall being overturned last time is still vivid in my mind.

This time, he even took action himself and killed several fellow disciples in front of the abbot.

This is too cruel!

Is she really a Buddhist?
"Abbot, what happened?"

At this time.

I saw the abbot Huiming and others arriving late, looking panic-stricken.

Especially when he saw Liuli, he immediately clasped his hands together respectfully, bowed and said: "Amitabha, this humble monk pays homage to the Divine Nun!"

Liuli said nothing, just nodded coldly.

Then he looked at the abbot Huian and said coldly, "Old bald donkey, you have 800 disciples in your temple, but you are so harsh to the disaster victims. Has your heart of Buddha been possessed by a demon?"

"Today I formally order you to improve the food for the victims. Each meal must include two steamed buns and a bowl of porridge. If you neglect this, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Liuli's expression was stern and her tone left no room for doubt.

Huian's expression gradually changed, but in front of so many disciples, and having suffered the shame of being beaten last time, as well as the humiliation of having his main hall overturned, he didn't want to be a coward this time.

After all, today is different from the past.

With the secrets of the goddess Ciyun and the young man named Ning in her hands, how could she possibly turn the tables?

Immediately.

Hui An snorted coldly, looked at Liuli, and said with a lack of confidence: "Shen Ni, do you want to think it over before making a decision?"

"What do I need to consider?" Liuli's eyes narrowed and she asked back in a bad tone.

Of course she knew that Hui'an was threatening her.

Huian's expression changed, and he shouted, "This is an internal matter of Jikong Temple. The nun has overreached."

"In the past, considering that we are both disciples of the Buddhist sect, I have met all the requests of the nun, and even provided 300,000 kilograms of food to help her!"

"But now that these disaster victims have a way to survive, they should be grateful to our temple. It was our temple that saved them, but the nun is so arrogant and unreasonable. Do you know that we also need food, clothing and incense to survive?"

"Shen Ni, don't go too far, or you will be retaliated against!"

Abbot Huian had a gloomy look on his face, with anger in his eyes, as if he was planning to make Liuli's secret public if they disagreed with him.

scare!
Huiming, Huiwu and others were all looking at their abbot Huian in shock.

When did the abbot become so tough?
How dare you go against Ciyun Shen Ni so forcefully and even fight back?
Could it be that he had forgotten that some time ago, the goddess Ciyun displayed her divine power, overturned the main hall in front of him, and beat him so badly that his face was bruised and swollen?

For a while.

All the monks were dumbfounded.

But Huian seemed to have found the courage, and there was a hint of pride in his expression as he looked at Liuli.

Such a big secret is enough to ruin the reputation of Ciyun Shen Ni. How could he not make good use of it?
just.

Before his smile could fully bloom, it suddenly froze on his face.

Liuli raised her hand and swung the whisk in her hand violently. The thin silk thread seemed to cut through the air and wrapped around Huian's neck.

then.

Liuli pulled back suddenly.

puff~
Instantly.

Then I saw the abbot of Jikong Temple, Huian, covering his neck with his hands.

But the bright red blood that seeped through the fingers could not be covered up.

Hui'an's eyes were wide open, filled with disbelief and helplessness.

He used his last bit of strength to glare at Liuli, as if he wanted to reveal her secret.

But his throat was completely cut by the silk thread of the whisk. When he opened his mouth, a large amount of blood gushed out and he could not make any sound at all.

"Abbot!"

"Brother!"

"Master!"

"..."

Instantly.

The square in front of the main hall was in chaos. Many monks from the Jikong Temple were so scared that they knelt down on the spot and shouted loudly.

Seeing their abbot fall straight down like that, everyone was shocked.

At this time.

Huiming suddenly sang a different tune, kneeling directly in front of Liuli, kowtowed and said: "Good! Thank you, nun, for helping Jikong Temple get rid of this bad apple!"

Then he stood up and turned to look at the many disciples of Jikong Temple.

"Nun, fellow disciples... you may not know that although Hui'an is the abbot, he is actually a hypocritical person who has completely betrayed the Buddha. He relies on his position as the abbot to embezzle and pervert the law, neglect the offerings, collude with corrupt officials, and embezzle Buddhist land. He even built a basement in his own Dharma Hall to hide his gold, silver, treasures, and women!"

"what?"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Especially when he heard that the abbot actually had a mistress in his house, he immediately burned with rage!

"Yes, you heard it right, Huiwu, do you remember that three years ago, a female donor came to our temple to pray for her husband who was going to the war, but then left without saying goodbye?" Huiming nodded firmly and then looked at his junior brother Huiwu.

How could Huiwu not understand? He immediately agreed, "Of course I remember. That female donor was kind-hearted and pretty. I still remember that a young monk went crazy because of her. It was really sad!"

"But for some reason, the female donor had only lived in the temple for five or six days and had not yet completed a Taoist ceremony, but she suddenly disappeared... Brother, are you saying that the female donor is in the abbot's basement?"

Huiwu had a look of shock on his face, pretending to be suddenly enlightened.

Many monks were also shocked.

Even Liuli opened her eyes wide and looked at Huiming in disbelief.

She didn't expect that this matter would eventually involve such a big melon.

This Hui'an is indeed not a good person.

Could such a person hold the high position of abbot and lead eight hundred disciples into Buddhism?

Liuli shook her head with a disinterested look, not intending to get involved in the turmoil within Jikong Temple. Instead, she looked at Huiming and said, "Master, this beast has committed many evil deeds. I killed him with my own hands to clean up the mess for you all!"

"I won't ask about the rest. I only have one request, which is to improve the food for the workers and shorten their working hours. Can you do that?"

Huiming immediately patted his chest and said, "That's good! Don't worry, nun. Buddha is merciful. I have had this intention for a long time, but I was suppressed by this evil-minded person before. I can't do anything about it. From now on, I will treat the workers well and do good deeds!"

There was a bright light in Huiming's eyes.

He knew that his position as the abbot of Jikong Temple was completely secure!
"Your words put me at ease. I will visit you from time to time in the future. If there is any discrepancy, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Liuli nodded, with a hint of warning in her words.

"Don't worry, Shenni!"

……

"Long live the Goddess, long live the Chief!"

At this time.

One of the workers suddenly raised his hand and shouted loudly.

then.

It was the gratitude that came one after another, like a tsunami, sweeping over like a wave.

Liuli's heart couldn't help but be slightly moved.

These disaster victims would be extremely grateful if their food was improved and their rest time was increased. You can imagine how low their demands are.

But even with such a low requirement, this beast Huian is still so stingy, he is simply possessed.

Liuli shook her head and said nothing more.

Instead, he glanced at Ning Mu, his eyes flickering, and went straight to the meditation room in the backyard.

Ning Mu hurried to follow.

[Hint: Congratulations to the host for completing Mission 0.5, and receiving the reward of 1000 pieces of Nine-transformation Divine Yuan Pill! 100 points for training, and points for companionship! ]

Looking at the information skipped by the system panel, Liuli breathed a sigh of relief.

In the warehouse, there are already six [Nine-transformation Divine Yuan Pill fragments*0.5]!

The distance to twenty is getting closer and closer.

[Reminder: Congratulations to the host, the second subsystem has completed task three, and the host has received task rewards. 200 training points have been obtained, and the Liuli loyalty value has increased by 1%! ]

56%!

Ning Mu couldn't help but look at Liuli's graceful, plump and well-proportioned back and chuckled with satisfaction.

Not long after.

Under the guidance of Liuli, the two came to the Zen temple again.

Liuli released his cultivation, sensed everything carefully, then picked a room at the side, opened the door and walked in.

After Ning Mu came in, her face gradually turned red and she closed the door with her backhand.

then.

She turned around, glanced at Ning Mu with twinkling eyes, then pursed her lips and said faintly: "You say, this work-for-relief...did this poor nun do something wrong?"

"Just now I saw several bodies of disaster victims being carried by those novice monks and thrown out of the temple. If I had not forced Jikong Temple to provide relief through work, would they not have died?"

this moment.

Liuli's tone was filled with infinite sadness.

She is decisive in killing.

But also compassionate.

This is not contradictory for her.

Ning Mu smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to hold Liuli's shoulder, and said softly: "Master, this is not your fault, but the fault of the abbot. Work-for-relief is of course good, but it is inevitable to encounter bastards like the abbot. No one can erase your contribution, so you don't need to mind it. Didn't you see so many people thanking you just now?"

"You did the right thing!"

Ning Mu expressed his affirmation sincerely.

At this moment, all Liuli needs is a word of affirmation.

Of course she knew there was nothing wrong with work-for-relief, the mistake was that Hui'an had lost her original intention.

Or.

She just needed a topic to break the awkward atmosphere.

"What merits I have, they are all yours. You are the only one who is smart enough to come up with this series of solutions. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid that more than half of the hundreds of thousands of disaster victims would have been killed or injured by now. In the past, disaster relief was mostly provided by the imperial court, otherwise the victims would have been left to fend for themselves."

"But even so, every major disaster causes countless casualties."

"And you, my hero, you were able to use your own strength to get involved in the game and maneuver around it. You didn't rely on the court, but you made sure they had enough food and even made a living on their own. This great deed and merit is enough to be recorded in history!"

At this moment, Liuli is undoubtedly sentimental.

She stared at Ning Mu's handsome face with burning eyes, and there was a hint of admiration in her sparkling eyes.

As a personal witness and experiencer, she was deeply moved by Ning Mu's concern for the people and his selfless dedication.

As a Buddhist, she has always required herself to save all living beings and be compassionate.

Seeing the disaster victims starving, she was extremely anxious but there was nothing she could do.

But Ning Mu stepped in and perfectly solved the difficult problem that was very difficult for the court.

The only one who got hurt in this situation was the wealthy Tan family.

Ning Mu has a kind heart and clever methods, and he secretly facilitated all of this, but he is not greedy for fame and fortune, nor does he use his favors to gain power. Even the victims don't know of his existence at all. There may even be many stupid people who cannot see through the situation and are cursing him wantonly.

But he always remained calm and composed.

All these things deeply shocked her soul.

This made her look at him differently, and even secretly favor him.

The longer they spent together, the more she could feel the noble character and moral integrity of this lustful young man.

These contradictory personalities are perfectly integrated into him, making him look natural.

This is also a very important reason why she is willing to stay with Ning Mu and accept the status of chivalrous partner bestowed by the system!
If Ning Mu was the kind of person who didn't care about anything that had nothing to do with him, or even did evil things, she would never be able to fall into depravity and compromise under the coercion of the system even if it meant risking her life!

Looking at Liuli's eyes filled with admiration and her bright and pretty face, Ning Mu couldn't help but laugh.

"Since I have made such a great contribution in Master's heart, would you be willing to thank me on behalf of those disaster victims?" Ning Mu smiled evilly.

The hand that was pressing on Liuli's shoulder slowly moved down.

"Hmm~" Liuli's body trembled suddenly, and her eyes were filled with the watery thoughts of a spring lake.

Feeling her own mercy being manipulated by this ruthless man again, Liuli's heart seemed to jump out.

"Be gentle!" Liuli said softly, her voice full of shyness.

She glanced at the window with some fear, afraid that someone would come.

But outside the Zen temple, the sound of dense footsteps was gradually heard.

It should be Huiming and others who took the monks to search the basement of Abbot Huian's Dharma Hall.

"Master, please don't just sit there doing nothing. Do some manual work for the victims." Ning Mu smirked.

Holding her mercy in one hand, he guided her delicate hand downward with the other.

"You bastard, you're really going too far! I must have owed you something in my previous life!" Liuli pretended to be angry and gritted her teeth, but the shyness that flashed in her bright eyes betrayed her, she was not that angry in her heart.

I used a little force with my hands, but not too much, for fear of damaging it.

"Yes, you must repay the debt of love you owe me in this life." Ning Mu laughed, feeling extremely satisfied.

Looking at such a beautiful jade-like girl, so arrogant, but having to submit, I can't tell you how comfortable it is.

Especially since the other party is a divine nun who is admired by everyone!

"Master, you don't want the world to know that you are so seductive in private, right?"

Ning Mu sat down on the mat carefree.

overhead.

It is the big Buddha shrine enshrined in this Zen room.

Liuli, who was kneeling in front of Ning Mu with her head lowered and her fiery red and beautiful face hidden by her three thousand strands of hair, couldn't help but tremble violently when she heard the words.

When she thought about her appearance at this moment being known to the world, heard by her fellow disciples and grandchildren in the Pu Luo Ci Yun Temple, and seen by her own teacher, Master Pu Luo, she felt a strong sense of panic in her heart.

but……

Amidst this fear and anxiety, there is even more of a sense of excitement and thrill that cannot be hidden and stirs the heart!
The guilt of betraying Buddhism made her deeply depressed.

"Well~ bastard, even though I'm doing this, can't I shut up your stinky mouth?"

Liuli's eyes sparkled and her face turned red. She glanced at Ning Mu embarrassedly and said through gritted teeth.

But having said that.

But the Buddha's hand that should be waving has never stopped for a moment...
