”Amitabha, this poor monk's name is Hui Kong. He is the abbot of the Devil's Cage Temple. Almsgiver Zhang, following this poor monk, naturally can leave.”
I nodded and solemnly followed behind Master Hui Kong.
Master Hui Kong took a few steps forward and silently chanted for a moment. The staff in his hand fiercely hit the ground again, a golden light emitted out, instantly covering the entire piece of rotten flesh. Master Hui Kong turned around and nodded at me, then walked forward step by step.
Naturally, I followed closely behind him. With every step, I treaded on the ground that he had stepped on. After walking crookedly for a while, my vision suddenly darkened and I returned to the cave that I was previously in.
”Almsgiver Zhang, can you come to the temple for a chat? There should be someone who wants to meet you!”
”Someone wants to see me?” I was slightly surprised, but still nodded my head. ”Master, please wait for a moment. I still have something to do.”
”En, go. I will wait here.”
However, I believe that he belongs to the latter. Since he believes me, I naturally won't lie to him.
After heading deeper into the cave, what I want to know is if there really is a female corpse and that Snake King inside. The Snake King, or in other words, the Snake Demon, since his cultivation is fake, he must be able to speak. At that time, Wu Youzi was only at the Great Circle of the Spirit Pill and he could even transform into a human to talk to me. The Snake Demon is definitely capable of doing that, but now, the only one who knows if Old Master Song is lying or not is him.
However, when they entered the depths of the cave, there was no sign of life. Could it be that the snake demon was already dead? I sped up. In just a short moment, I was already at the bottom of the cave, with the exception of a pile of broken human bones, there was nothing else.
With my doubts, I could only leave. When I arrived at the top of the cave, Master Hui Kong was still waiting with his eyes closed.
”Master, please wait. I have completed my task. Please lead the way.”
”Yes, Almsgiver Zhang, this way please!”
Leaving the cave and running at top speed, I exclaimed even more about Hui Kong's strength. Looking at him flying calmly, I could only maintain my position behind him despite using all my strength. You have to understand that I have comprehended a sliver of wind elemental energy!
The mountain wasn't too high, so after a short while, we had already arrived at the Demonic Prison Temple.
The Devil Cage Temple is just an ordinary temple, but I don't recognize the buddhist statues inside it. There was also another woman in the hall. Although she looked very pitiful, her face was very pale and there were faint traces of red on the corners of her lips. She was sitting on a praying mat as if she was recuperating. Seeing me and Master Hui Kong come in, I coldly glanced at them, and without saying a word, I continued to meditate with my eyes closed.
”Enlightened Mind, serve tea!”
After Master Hui Kong finished speaking for a moment, a seven or eight-year-old monk brought up a cup of tea. This young monk's eyes were quite lively and he also looked full of spirit. He really was an extraordinary talent.
”Amitabha, Almsgiver Yue, I have brought a person with me. Perhaps, it can resolve the grudge between you and Enlightenment.”
I didn't look at the little child anymore. Instead, I turned my head to look at the girl known as Almsgiver Yue. I saw her continue to cast a cold glance at me, as though she didn't want to speak at all.
”Benefactor Yue, this Almsgiver Zhang claims to be entrusted by others, and has obtained the Sealing Inheritance.”
When the woman heard what I said, her eyes abruptly opened as she looked at me. At the same time, she moved and appeared before me. From what I can see, the woman's cultivation level is also at the False Heaven stage. However, her aura is in disorder, and her spiritual power is in disarray. If she were to fight with me right now, I naturally wouldn't be afraid.
”Hmph, you old bald donkey, if you lie to me, then even if I have to self-destruct the Spirit Pill, I will destroy the Spirit Formation and die together with that snake demon to avenge my sister!”
Amitabha, how long has it been since we repaid our grievances? That snake demon has been converted to Buddha and can be considered one of the buddhas. Now, his name is Wu Ming, and he doesn't use his words against his family members. Since Wu Ming said that your sister's death has nothing to do with him, then naturally, it has nothing to do with him.
”Hmph, I will deal with you after I understand everything clearly!”
The girl looked at me with a cold expression. ”Who told you to come and get this?”
Since you have a favor to ask of me, why do you speak in such a manner?
I indifferently looked at her before sitting on the seat beside me and coldly said, ”I don't like your tone!”
”You!” The lady gritted her silver teeth and seemed as if she was about to charge forward to fight with her life.
”Amitabha, Almsgiver Zhang, this matter is of great importance, please inform us!”
Since Master Hui Kong asked, I don't have to hide it from him. Moreover, he saved my life before.
”I made a deal with an old man surnamed Song. He wanted me to retrieve the remains of his wife, and he told me the method to take the box and get out of the formation.”
”What's his name? ”Who's his wife?” After hearing me finish, the woman immediately became anxious and asked anxiously.
”Him? He is just a mortal. I don't know his name, I just called him Old Brother Song. I didn't ask for his wife's name. ”
”He, mortal, old man, surname Song … Where is he now, bring me to see him! ”
