Chapter 216 The Weird Old Monk

"That's right, and I've heard it! The reason Mi Shizhu came to Pei Country was because he was fed up with Zhan Wang's entanglement, so he had no choice but to run away from home at a young age."

"Yes, yes, I heard that too! It is rumored that Master Mi was dissatisfied with the marriage given by the emperor, so he ran away from the marriage in a fit of anger, and was taken in by Prince Pei."

"If it's true as you said, then the benefactor Mi and the prince have been together for so many years, and they must have fallen in love with each other, right?"

"I think so. After all, the charm of our Prince Pei is well known to everyone."

"..."

A group of young monks looked at the top of the mountain not far away, discussing quietly together.

Little did they know that every word they said reached the ears of Mino who was supposed to be resting in the room.

She had black lines all over her head: "..."

So, monks don't necessarily have the six senses clean and the four senses empty?

This person's gossip heart!

Even monks are unavoidable.

Hey!
Mino sighed inwardly, and muttered in a low voice, "It seems that I must have a good talk with the old monk."

In order not to disturb the 'interest' of the young monks, Mino resolutely did not go through the main entrance, but directly opened the window and left.

She came to the outside of the old monk's residence with ease, and there were waves of beating wooden fish in her ears.

Standing at the door, Mino didn't push the door directly to go in.

After all, she is still busy, so she can't interrupt his chanting rudely, can she?

Therefore, she decided to wait until the old monk stopped chanting sutras before going in.

I never thought that my arrival had already been discovered by the old monk.

The sound of the wooden fish stopped suddenly, followed by the calm voice of the old monk.

"Master Mi, please finally come!"

"..." Mino was surprised for a moment.

He lifted his foot over the threshold and walked in.

"Old monk, do you know that I will come?"

The old monk put down the wooden fish in his hand, and bowed to the Buddha statue with palms together.

Then, he turned and looked at Mino.

He raised his hand, pointed to a room on the side, and answered the wrong question: "Master Mi, this way please."

Seeing that he didn't answer his own question, Mino shrugged indifferently: "Oh, all right!"

Following the direction the old monk pointed, she saw a room with the word 'living room' hanging on the door.

Under the leadership of the old monk, Mino came to the living room.

The layout in the living room is very simple, so simple that there is only a low table and a tea set.

"Master Mi, please sit down." The old monk said again.

When Mino heard this, he nodded slightly: "Thank you."

The two sat opposite each other on the futon, neither said much.

The old monk poured a cup of warm tea for Mino and passed it over: "Master Mi, please drink tea."

"..." Mino.

She finished the teacup and took a shallow sip: "Thank you, old monk."

At the end, he continued: "Old monk, you should already know by now that what I said that day is true, right?"

"En." The old monk nodded: "I apologize to Master Mi for my recklessness that day."

Mino's eyelids twitched, and he asked with a half-smile, "If that's the case, why don't you let me go?"

Yes, she had proposed to leave many times, but was rejected by the old monk.

She wanted to leave without saying goodbye, but she really wanted to know if this old monk had anything to do with Bai Yi?
Therefore, in order to find the truth of the matter, she had no choice but to stay here for a few more days.

As Wei Chen and Pei Xiaoyu thought, the more they got to know each other, the more they realized that the old monk in front of them was very strange.

I can't tell what's so weird about it, but...

The more you look at it, the weirder it is.

Hearing this, the old monk slowly poured himself a cup of tea.

After drinking the tea, he looked at Mino and said, "Although I really don't agree to Mi Shizhu's leaving, but according to the strength of Mi Shizhu and others, I'm afraid they can come and go freely in Hanshan Temple, right?"

"..." Mino.

It does come and go.

But is that the truth?
She pursed her lips and said solemnly: "I'm a good person who is knowledgeable and reasonable, how could I do something without saying goodbye?"

After a pause, he continued: "What's more...this is still a temple."

Hearing this, the old monk gave Mino a meaningful look.

Don't tell me if you see it through: "Mi Shizhu is indeed a good person."

Mino: "..."

Suddenly a good person card was issued.

This feeling is indescribably strange.

She twitched the corner of her mouth and simply smashed the jar.

So, he asked with a serious face: "Old monk, just tell me straight! Do you know Bai Yi? What is the relationship between you and him?"

When he was in the imperial city of Pei, he thought that the soul of the old monk might also be part of the white clothes.

But when he came to Hanshan Temple, he discovered...

It turned out that all the older monks here have a faint aura of white clothes.

So she can basically conclude that the problem does not lie with these monks.

Rather, it may be caused by a certain event, or a certain place in Hanshan Temple.

Because of this, she was eager to find the answer she wanted to know.

"White clothes?" The old monk frowned and asked suspiciously, "Who is the white clothes?"

Mino: "..."

She stared at the old monk for a while, and then said angrily: "Old monk, there is no need to pretend to be stupid, right?"

The old monk replied calmly: "Master Mi, I really don't know who the white robe you are talking about is, and I have never heard of it."

Mino's face darkened, and he said angrily: "If you don't know Bai Yi, why do you have the aura of Bai Yi on you? You are clearly lying now!"

The old monk frowned when he heard the words: "Master Mi, monks don't lie, I really don't know the white clothes you mentioned."

After a pause, he bowed to the outside of the room and said, "Amitabha, I swear to the Lord Buddha that what I just said is absolutely true."

"!!!" Mino squinted his eyes.

A pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes stared at the old monk closely, full of sharp expressions.

She was very eager to see traces of lying in his eyes...

It's a pity that after looking at it for a long time, I didn't find any flaws.

After a long time, she looked away.

He poured himself a cup of tea and drank it down: "Sorry, I was the one who was rude just now."

The old monk shook his head: "Master Mi does not need to apologize."

After a while, he continued: "I don't know about this person in white, and I don't know what kind of breath Master Mi is talking about?"

"The reason why I asked Master Mi to stay is because I have something to ask for."

"only……"

Having said this, the old monk stopped suddenly, hesitant to speak.

It seems that he is very hesitant.

Seeing this, Mino's heart beat wildly for no reason.

She hurriedly asked: "Old monk, you finished speaking in one breath! What is there for me to help?"

Inexplicably, she felt that this matter must have something to do with Bai Yi.

The old monk was silent for a long time, and then said solemnly: "It's like this..."
