Chapter 1932 Three Great Protectors
Chapter 1932 Three Great Protectors
Wan Shufang murmured softly. Seeing the admiration in the man's eyes, she couldn't help but curl her lips: "Are the Four Dharma Protectors really as powerful as you say?"
"Of course, they are the most powerful masters in Bhikkhu City. There are four great masters guarding Bhikkhu City. No matter what plans those people have, they will never succeed. Anyone who causes trouble in Bhikkhu City will die miserably..." Qian Er rubbed his arms, as if he thought of something terrible.
There was a bit of fear in his eyes, and he subconsciously lowered his voice: "Back then, someone didn't know what was good for him and shouted in Bhikkhu City. When he died, his stomach was cut open, his eyeballs were dug out, and he was exposed to the sun."
Hearing this, Wan Shufang's face also became solemn. Before she could speak, Qian Er shook his head and said, "The four great masters have been guarding Bhikkhu City for many years. Their whereabouts are strange and no one knows their identities."
"But they always show up at critical moments to keep the area peaceful. That's why even those people can't cause any trouble."
As soon as the words fell, the private room fell into silence. Everyone was silent with complicated expressions, wondering who the four masters were.
One problem hasn't been solved yet, but it seems like another trouble has come.
Wan Shufang sighed, and a light bulb suddenly lit up her head. She suddenly thought of everyone's indifference when she first entered the city. That weird feeling came to her mind again, and she couldn't help but frowned: "Qian Er, there is one more thing. When we first entered the city, I always felt that the people of Bhikkhu City were very strange."
"They were so indifferent that even when outsiders came, they didn't even take a look out of curiosity."
Qian Er didn't react much after hearing Wan Shufang's words. He looked as if he was used to it and said calmly, "This is also the rule of Bhikkhu City. Those four people reminded us to take care of ourselves, talk less and do more, so that we can release our nature at the banquet."
“So, the people of Bhikkhu City are looking forward to the feast.”
Those were the only days they could indulge themselves...
Qian Er's words did not dispel Wan Shufang's doubts. Instead, they made her feel even more puzzled. Why did the four great masters restrict the people in this way?
Apart from being lively and exciting, how is this so-called feast different from ordinary days?
A series of questions came to mind, and Wan Shufang couldn't help but look at Chen Changli: "Chen Changli..."
Seeing Chen Changli shaking his head at her, Wan Shufang had to stop and swallow back the words she had not finished.
"In that case, we should stay and watch the feast. Manager Qian, do you know where there is an inn where we can stay in Bhikkhu City? It would be best if it is closer to the teahouse, so that Minghe can come and discuss the matter of Tiancang Pavilion with you all." Chen Changli said slowly, tapping the table lightly with his fingers.
He always felt that Bhikkhu City was hiding too many secrets, so he chose to stay and investigate it thoroughly.
Wan Shufang did not stop Chen Changli's plan, which was considered as tacit approval. However, Minghe was instantly dissatisfied. He slammed the table and glared at Chen Changli angrily.
"Chen Changli, what do you mean?" She looked unhappy and said something bluntly: "You don't think about how to catch the murderer behind the scenes, but you still want to stay and watch the feast. You don't take me seriously at all."
Minghe was so angry that her chest heaved violently. Seeing Wan Shufang trying to reach out to pull her, she exerted force and shook Wan Shufang's hand away, knocking it on the corner of the table, which instantly turned a small red spot.
Seeing this, Chen Changli quickly pulled up Wan Shufang's hand to check. Seeing the red marks, his face turned cold: "Minghe, what are you doing?"
"I... I didn't mean it. Besides, weren't you the first to break your promise?" Minghe's eyes widened, as if he had found his backbone again, and he was not afraid of Chen Changli at all.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Qian Er looked at the few people cautiously. Seeing that the situation was not right, he quickly saluted and left.
The door of the private room was closed again, and Minghe said in a cold tone: "If you don't want to look for it, I will go by myself. You can live in this Bhikkhu City if you like."
Seeing Minghe was about to leave, Wan Shufang quickly shouted, "Minghe, calm down first."
Wan Shufang winked at Chen Changli, indicating that she was fine and asked Chen Changli to let go. When she was free, she stood up and walked to Minghe.
"We don't mean to break our promise to you, Minghe. With all these strange things happening, can't you see that there are too many secrets hidden in the city of Bhikkhu?"
"The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. We know nothing now. The most important thing is to stay in Bhikkhu City and investigate the truth." Wan Shufang advised earnestly. Chen Changli also came over and looked at Minghe coldly.
That look seemed to be telling Ming He that he was stupid. Stimulated by his eyes, Ming He immediately became indignant: "You were the ones who broke your promise first..."
She choked and her eyes were red. Whenever she thought of what had happened to her father and sister, she couldn't suppress her desire for revenge and wanted to kill her enemies immediately.
Wan Shufang could guess what Minghe was thinking. She reached out her hand and gently patted Minghe on the shoulder: "Minghe, since the other party already knows of our existence, they will definitely not give up. Instead of going out and looking for them, it is better to wait and see."
"Staying in Bhikkhu City is not only to investigate the abnormalities in Bhikkhu City, but also to wait for those people to take action."
Hearing this, Minghe's eyes flickered, he sniffed, and indeed calmed down. He walked back with Wan Shufang and sat down silently.
At this time, Chen Changli had been paying attention to Wan Shufang's hand. Seeing that the red marks had disappeared, his complexion also looked much better. He no longer confronted Minghe, but did not want to talk either.
It was still Wan Shufang who poked his arm: "I'm fine, I just bumped into it. Changli, Minghe believes you, you still have to tell me about this matter."
As she spoke, she showed her hands to Chen Changli, her eyes bright and blinking, as if she was acting coquettishly with him.
Facing her expression, Chen Changli felt a little helpless. He raised his hand and rubbed the top of her head. He turned to look at Minghe and said, "Minghe, since I promised you that I would help you find out the truth and help you get revenge, I will not break my promise."
"I will definitely do what I promised you, but we have to stay in Bhikkhu City. You can see that Bhikkhu City is full of weirdness. It is not wise to leave now."
There was no one else in the private room, so Chen Changli told Minghe all his guesses without any scruples. They were in the same boat, so they should unite to face the outside world instead of fighting among themselves.
"Please be patient, we will investigate Bhikkhu City and your case as well."
After saying that, Chen Changli fell silent and just kept looking at Minghe. Seeing the determination on their faces, Minghe pursed his lips, still hesitant.
Her fingers clenched the corner of her clothes, and recent events kept appearing in her mind. After a long time, she let out a long sigh, as if she had thought it through, and finally compromised with the two of them.
"Okay, I promise you, and I hope you won't lie to me."
