Transmigrated As A Delicate Bundle Of Luck For A Farming Family

787 Prayer

Su Xiaolu was a little embarrassed to see that many monks were older than her, but after that, she boasted with cupped fists, “Then I’ll be ashamed to be called Aunt.”

The old abbot nodded happily and raised his hand.

Two monks stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and picked up sticks.

Su Xiaolu also took a stick and the competition began.

!!

As the number one disciple of Gui You, Su Xiaolu naturally could not underestimate her.

Su Xiaolu’s sword techniques were ever-changing, and the monks’ staff techniques were also superb. Their tacit cooperation was almost engraved in their bones.

Su Xiaolu was very energetic. From the initial test to counterattack to parrying, it was only in this short moment.

The old abbot watched with relish and nodded repeatedly.

The other monks and disciples were also watching seriously. Everyone slowly practiced in their hearts. If it was their fellow disciples who went on stage, how long could they last?

How could their staff techniques be changed?

Su Xiaolu hit the two monks’ wrists with her stick. Their sticks fell to the ground. Su Xiaolu retracted her hand and smiled humbly and proudly. “Thank you for letting me win.”

“Aunt Su, we also want to challenge you.”

Another pair of monks stood forward. They did not want to miss such a good combat opportunity at all.

Su Xiaolu smiled generously and nodded. “No problem.”

After today’s competition, everyone had a good time.

Su Xiaolu was also very happy. She ate two more bowls of vegetarian food at night. Unfortunately, Buddhists did not eat meat.

However, Su Xiaolu wanted to eat meat, so after eating the vegetarian meal, she went out to eat.

She took Mantis Shrimp and ate a roasted chicken before going back to sleep.

In the morning, the entire Buddhist Sect was filled with the sound of wooden fish and sutra chanting.

Su Xiaolu walked around and walked into a hall. She saw two women kneeling on the praying mat and chanting with their palms pressed together. As they were too engrossed, they did not notice when Su Xiaolu entered.

Su Xiaolu stood still and listened quietly.

The woman’s voice was hoarse and choked as she repeatedly muttered, “Buddha is merciful. Please bless my hubby to personally catch that demon who dug out hearts and ate organs to avenge our daughter and eliminate evil for the people! I know that Hongyue Monastery is the most effective. Please open your eyes and save the people.”

The woman repeated her prayers many times. Then, she kowtowed a few more times sincerely and finally got up to leave.

Seeing Su Xiaolu, the woman left in a hurry without any emotions.

Su Xiaolu watched from the hall for a while before others came in to pray.

Su Xiaolu turned around and left.

Su Xiaolu observed and realized that many commoners who came to pray had said the same thing. Hongyue Monastery was the most effective.

During lunch, Su Xiaolu asked the old abbot, “Abbot, is Hongyue Monastery very effective?”

The old abbot smiled until his eyebrows curved. He teased very kindly, “Why is Su girl asking this? Are you going to make a wish too?”

Su Xiaolu smiled and shook her head. “No, I just heard many people who pray say that your temple is the most effective. Why would they say that? I guess your temple must be famous.”

The old abbot smiled happily and said, “Your guess is right. Our temple is quite famous. Some difficult and complicated illnesses are noted down by the temple when a commoner comes to pray many times. The Disciples will go down the mountain to investigate and help solve them as much as possible.”

“Abbot, have you had anything to resolve recently? I want to help.”

Su Xiaolu immediately said. She found it quite interesting. Anyway, she had nothing to do.

The old abbot said happily, “Alright, recently, there has been a case of hearts being dug out and lungs being eaten in Suzhou City. There are witnesses who say that the fox-faced demon they saw was very terrifying. He was agile and difficult to catch. Once you are scratched by his claw, you would even be poisoned to death. That demon is extremely strong. After the crimes, he would quickly disappear without a trace. In just three days, he killed three women. Every time, he would leave a mark on the door of the woman he wanted to harm in advance. Even if he was surrounded, he could escape. It’s said that he is made of iron. The commoners feel uneasy, so many people came to pray.”

After the old abbot finished speaking, he looked at Su Xiaolu with a smile. “I’ve decided to send a disciple down to assist the government in investigating the case. That should be a person with superpowers or a demon from a foreign land. He’s strong, which is why it’s difficult for the government to catch him. If we have your help, we’ll definitely be more confident.”

“Then it’s decided. I’m also curious about what’s committing murder. No matter where it came from, it’s naturally not right to harm human lives like this.”

Su Xiaolu’s expression was a little solemn. She thought of the Spirit Snake she had killed in the strange lake in Changzhou. Spirit Snakes had also come from a foreign land. Now that something strange had happened in Suzhou, and it was a murder case, would it happen elsewhere?

There was a high chance that there were, and there were many of them.

The old abbot smiled slightly. “Go, go.”

Now that there were changes everywhere, those in Daoist sects who were capable should shine. Ordinary people were very weak in front of fiendish demons and did not have the ability to resist.

If they let it go and encouraged the fiendish demons, there would be a day when it would backfire on them.

In the afternoon, Su Xiaolu went down the mountain with the two monks.

Among these two brothers, one was called Fa Yin and the other was called Fa Le. According to their seniority, the two of them were Su Xiaolu’s Juniors, so although they were old, they still had to call Su Xiaolu Aunt.

After entering the city, Fa Yin and Fa Le brought Su Xiaolu straight to the door of a large family. This residence was already heavily guarded. The people entering and leaving were all from the residence.

Fa Yin and Fa Le revealed their identities. The person protecting the Qiu Residence was called Jiang Zhengjun. He was a general and said with a serious expression, “Masters, please come in. However, in order to prevent a demon from impersonating humans, please let my people verify your identity first.”

Fa Yin and Fa Le nodded in understanding. They looked at Su Xiaolu and Fa Yin said, “Aunt, you can do it, right?”

Su Xiaolu nodded. “I’m fine.”

They entered the Fa Le and went to check their bodies.

Several old grannies examined Su Xiaolu very carefully.

Su Xiaolu was not shy. They were all women. She had what they had. This was just their job.

After checking that there was nothing wrong with her body, she was allowed to really enter the Qiu Residence and go to Miss Qiu Ran’s courtyard.

Su Xiaolu looked at the deep claw mark gully in the courtyard and said, “Is this the mark of that demon?”

Fa Yin and Fa Le nodded. Fa Le said, “Yes, this is the mark. The first woman who died didn’t have a mark. The second one had a mark, but at that time, no matter how much they thought about it, it wasn’t until the third one, which was the previous one, that they connected this case together. Miss Qiu Ran is the fourth target.”

“Where’s Miss Qiu?” Su Xiaolu asked again.

...

Fa Le and Fa Yin pointed inside.

Su Xiaolu frowned slightly. They knew that their daughter was being targeted. Even with the protection of the army, Old Master Qiu still let his daughter stay in the original courtyard. This was very strange.
