Liao Yuan was quiet, this news really shocked us to the core. How could he die like this, if he died, what should we do, what should we do with the Pig Slaughtering Knife?
However, no matter how shocked we were, it was useless. Liao Yuan just died like that, and in that moment, everyone started to get busy, no one paid attention to us anymore.
"Hello everyone, this is the scene of news that the satellite TV has brought you. It is reported that today at noon, the local thousand year old Vajra Temple met with some kind of disaster, and hundreds of monks were hospitalized without reason. Everyone can see that the hospital is now filled with monks, and many young monks had panicked expressions, as if something terrible had happened. And just now, another piece of news has come, saying that the host of Vajra Temple, Liao Yuan, is already very lonely. A reporter was doing a live broadcast in front of the hospital's entrance. He then blocked the path of a monk, asking him questions. However, that monk only answered a single question before leaving in a hurry.
"Investigate, investigate, what's the reason, why we haven't received any news at all, why more than 100 monks were injured at the same time, what's the problem, do you know what's the effect, do you know how many phone calls were made asking me what happened, do you know, don't you know, don't you know yet?" Within an office, a leader shouted angrily.
Right now, he did not know how many people were inquiring about the results of his actions, but he was unable to say a single word. This had something to do with him, because this caused his face to be extremely thwarted, and within the limits of his jurisdiction, he did not even know the basic information.
"Reporting, latest news, it's from the hospital. Vajra Temple Master Liao Yuan, it's so quiet!" At this time, someone shouted at the door.
"What?!" The leader exclaimed in shock. Even Liao Yuan had died, what the hell was going on?
It was a mess, a complete mess. The entire Vajra Temple was in disarray, the backbone of the monks being hospitalized, the elders heavily injured, the host Yuan Su, as well as the outside world's curious prying, everything was tiring for the cultivators to deal with. All of the departments were almost paralyzed.
Previously, he was in charge of external contact with the outside world, which was equivalent to a function of the university student union's external department. Furthermore, he had a wide range of contacts and was well-known for his ability, and now that he had appeared, there were even shouts from the next host, which caused the rest of the hosts to lose all color.
When the situation had stabilized, he began to operate. He first organized the Vajra Temple's security forces and reopened the mountain gates, but strictly guarded against those reporters and those who harboured malicious intentions. At the same time, he also communicated with the Buddhist Association through the government.
In addition, he also arranged for the injured monks to return to the Vajra Temple to recuperate. Especially those few elders, he personally went to persuade them to cooperate with his work.
On the second day, the elders came out to meet the believers, dispelling many people's doubts. They also announced Master Liao Yuan's funeral, and would be inviting all the great buddhist sects under the heavens to come to see the ceremony.
On the surface, this was all part of his work, but he had already solved most of the problems. As for how he operated in the dark, no one knew.
On the third day, someone came over to inform us that he had something to tell us, but when we saw him in the Sacred Vajra Temple's meditation room, we felt that something was wrong, because he had gotten sick again. His body was already suffering from the backlash of the secret technique, but he had been working so hard these past few days, putting in so much effort, he was completely holding on.
"Grandmaster Mo, you..." I asked in surprise.
"There's no need to worry, I'm not dead yet. Just rest," Ye Xiao waved his hand and said.
"I'm sorry, we were wrong. We came here this time to admit our mistakes and take responsibility," Sun Yong and I said after looking at each other. We had witnessed the disaster at Vajra Temple for ourselves.
"… …" "Take responsibility." "How are you guys going to take responsibility? Are you guys taking responsibility for Senior Brother Liao Yuan and Junior Brother Ran, or are you thinking of paying us off?"
I feel so sorry for the sarcasm that it makes our faces burn.
"Master, don't say it like that. We are really sorry," I said, embarrassed.
"If you don't feel right, then wipe out those two spiritual senses," Ye Zichen replied.
"Alright, we swear, we will definitely destroy them!" I replied without even thinking about it.
"Exterminate, how are you going to exterminate them? Do you know where they are hiding? Do you know how much strength they have left? Do you have any other special features that they have?"
The sarcasm I felt made me feel extremely unhappy. Did this fellow eat a gun today to mock me? However, he didn't mock me back on account of how sick he was due to his hard work.
"Master, we two brothers lack knowledge and do not know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. We have done a lot of things that should not be done, I beg Master to forgive us, as for the evil blade, we need Master to guide us even more," Sun Yong said as he explained.
After hearing Sun Yong's good words, he felt a little better, and said "It's really hard for you guys to support the Vajra Temple, it's only a pity that they are already very happy, so for now, they do not need to take responsibility for the Vajra Temple, but you guys have to take responsibility for eliminating the blade and taking revenge for Liao Yuan and Junior Brother Ran. This bell will be given to you, and this bell will be given to you all as long as you get close to the pig slaughtering blade, then you guys will have to take care of it."
After saying that, he took a nap and handed us a bell. That bell was very small, and one could hold it with one hand, but it was very refined, the bell's appearance consisted of four Buddhist sides, and the inside of the bell should also have scriptures, but after it shook, it did not make any sound, it was very strange, like a dumbbell.
"Thank you Master Jing, thank you for your magnanimity in Vajra Temple," Sun Yong said as he cupped his fists.
Then we said a few more things and had someone see us off, and then we went down the hill.
"Sun Yong, this treatment of Vajra Temple is far beyond my expectations. I thought that they would push us out to attract their firepower and resolve their predicament, but they endured it themselves," I said to Sun Yong after we had descended the mountain.
Sun Yong suddenly stopped and turned to me, "What did you just say?"
"It's nothing. I just didn't expect that the Vajra Temple would take it on its own …" I answered.
Sun Yong's face changed, he suddenly became ugly, and said to me: "If, for no reason, your senior brother was killed by someone, and you were seriously injured, will you still help your enemy?"
"Definitely not, I just killed him!" I said subconsciously, and then I felt really bad.
"That can't be, they are monks. Aren't they trying to repay a debt of virtue by slicing meat and feeding it to the falcons?" I couldn't help but ask.
"Hmph, cutting flesh and feeding it to eagles, do you believe that, even if this is true, it is still the work of Buddha, not them. If they could do it, they would have already become Buddha." Sun Yong sneered.
"Then tell me, what are their plans?" I replied.
"I don't know what exactly they plan to do, but I can guarantee that they definitely won't let us go, they might want to kill us with their Pig Slaughtering Knife, or perhaps they want us to die with their Pig Slaughtering Knives first, but there is a condition, and that is that they will not attack us openly, nor do they attack us before we find the Pig Slaughtering Knife. Vajra Temple should be related to the Pig Slaughtering Knife, because there is the matter of Liao Yuan understanding, and no one from the Buddhist Sect wants to fight them, but we should be the ones who will be carrying it out." Sun Yong explained.
Just like what happened with, the matter regarding Quanzhen Religion was the same. The rest of the righteous sects would only lend a helping hand when they needed it, and they would not take the initiative to intervene. However, they knew that the Vajra Temple would not send anyone else out, and the reason was simple.
The reason why the Vajra Temple did not dare to go through with it was not because they feared the Pig Slaughtering Knife, but because they were afraid of going through it together. The truth of the Vajra Temple was already exposed, and the strongest Liao Yuan had died immediately, while the rest of the elders were severely injured, and those elders had used the medicinal blood, so they did not know if they would be able to pass the test. If they could not pass, with their current Cultivation Level, they would not be an opponent for the Pig Slaughtering Knife.
On the contrary, if they did not make a move, the enemies of Vajra Temple would not dare to pull them recklessly.
"This, such a deep feeling," I replied. If it wasn't for Sun Yong's reminder, I really didn't know that they would still have such thoughts.
"Therefore, we must have some countermeasures, if not, when the Pig Slaughtering Knife is destroyed, it will also be the day of our death." Sun Yong said.
"What strategy? Hurry up and tell me, don't keep us in suspense." I immediately asked.
"Let's not talk about it for now. Let's first go back to pack up and find my grandfather. The thing in my mind is only a vague concept, and I still need my grandfather to decide on it," Sun Yong said.
We also agree on this point, we still need the Uncle to be in charge, he has to consider everything, if not we won't know what kind of disaster he will create.
