Chapter 43: Life is meant to be fought for

  Wugou slapped his belly and said, "Heaven has three killings: killing fortune, killing luck, and killing longevity. But I don't know what Little Tan plans to kill this poor monk with?"

  Yun Zheng turned to leave, but just now when the monk said he wanted Yun Er to be his apprentice, he indeed had a murderous intention. His brain was racing for an instant, looking for a way to respond. A cluster of rhododendron at the foot of the mountain gave him a great inspiration. Hearing Wugou's question, he replied with a gloomy face: "I'm not interested in killing any fortune or longevity, the only thing I'll kill is your life."

  "How dare you!" The monk of Wugou didn't say a word, but Xiao Wurgen loudly rebuked Yun Zheng. The rest of the young men and women were shocked to see Yun Zheng's furious face, never expecting that this young man would have the audacity to scold the famous monk of Wugou in Shu.

  Wugou and the monk remained expressionless, smiling as he asked Yun Zheng: "I'd love to hear more! Today's test question is how to kill me silently. The premise is that I must die without making a sound."

  "Today, the junior's rashness and discourtesy, please Master Haihan forgive him. When the day comes, I will ask my family ancestors to personally come to your door to apologize! "Xiao Wugeng's face turned iron blue, he cupped his hands and was about to leave, thinking that Monk Wugou had become angry."

  "Alright! You've all come to me for nothing but a letter of recommendation. Today, whoever among you can devise a plot that will silently and stealthily take my life shall be declared the winner, and I'll immediately write the letter of recommendation. There's no room for debate."

  Xiao Wu Gen was stunned, everyone said that the monk of Wugou was strange, but he didn't expect it to be so strange. Getting a recommendation from the famous Wugou monk in Shu had great significance for his own career advancement. With this letter of recommendation, as long as he didn't perform too badly on the exam, he would definitely be able to go to Dongjing Bianliang City. Thinking about this made his heart feel hot all at once. He turned around to look at Yun Zheng, only to find that he had already disappeared without a trace. Although Yun Zheng was not very good in many ways, he felt that he was actually a very considerate person.

  Miss Lin has been silent since she saw Yun Da appear, not saying a word. Now that Wu Gou and Shang are going to use the letter as a prize, she can't help but feel excited. Seeing Yun Zheng seemingly not caring about Wu Gou's letter, for her own dignity, she chose to give up and couldn't help but sigh. This is what they call being narrow-minded. Such people, no matter how intelligent, will ultimately end in emptiness. In this world, it's not just that learning is not progressing, this principle applies everywhere.

  A man who can't be extremely devoted is not worthy of being the husband in Luo Fu's mouth, Lanlan has always thought that the young master in Luo Fu's mouth should be her dream husband.

  "In the east, over a thousand horses, husband is at the top. What's the use of recognizing husband, white horse follows the piebald horse. Green silk ties the horse tail, golden cord ties the horse head. Waist sword worth thousands and millions. Fifteen small officials in the prefecture, twenty high-ranking officials in the court, thirty attendants in the imperial palace, forty living in a special city. As a person, pure and white, with some whiskers. Walking in the public hall, hurrying in the official residence. Among hundreds of people, all say husband is extraordinary.

  Liang Qi, who has an extremely good relationship with Lanlan, saw Lanlan again and fell into a trance-like state, suddenly understood that she was going to see her own husband, and couldn't help but speak out loud and tease her by reciting the poem 'Luofu'. Lanlan didn't show any shyness like ordinary women, instead, she widened her eyes and asked Liang Qi: "Don't you want a husband like that?"

  Liang Qi shook her head, pointing at the group of useless boys who were being scolded by Wu Gou and the monks: "The husband in the poem will always be in the poem. We are surrounded by such trash and fools, how can I choose?"

  He can't even save people, now he can't even kill people. Listen to what he's saying: wearing a black scarf and thin-soled boots, choosing a night with strong winds in the first month, holding a sharp blade, rising and falling with the knife, isn't it quick? Has he gone crazy from reading "The Legend of Chivalrous Heroes"?

  And that idiot, after buying a killer to murder someone, still wants to make an appointment with the killer. Is he tired of living?

  "Girls always have to suffer a bit, but we must have men in our hearts. Heaven will not disappoint those who are determined, and with time, you'll find them."

  Liang Qi's eyes suddenly turned to Lanlan and said, "I don't know why, but I always feel that Yun Dai seems to be able to stand out from the crowd. Do you think we should help him out in secret? Compared to these people, Yun Dai is more like a human being."

  Lanlan rolled her eyes at Liang Qi and said, "Be careful, Yun Da may not be a bad person, but he's definitely not a good one either. I've been gathering information about him these past few days, and after summarizing it all, I found that this person is absolutely not simple. He's like a cunning fox mixed in with the pigs, you'd better be careful not to get pulled in and can't get out. Previously, I thought he was just a heartless and ungrateful person, but who knew that earlier he actually had murderous intentions for his own brother? It seems my views were somewhat biased."

  Two young women were whispering to each other when the examination at Wugou came to an end. The irritated monk, waving his large sleeves, drove away the group of young men, saying: "Either you have a mind but no guts, or you have guts but no brains. Although Monk Wugou is rough and unrefined, he has traveled all over the country and cannot be harmed by your small tricks. Nowadays, young people can't even kill someone properly?"

  The old Taoist slowly said to the monk of Wugou, "You go ask that young man, his method should be feasible. These people are just talking nonsense, but that young man really wants to kill you. I feel like he might actually be able to kill you."

  "Xiaolin Old Dao, you're going too far. Can a scholar arbitrarily harbor murderous intentions?" Hearing Xiaolin Old Dao's second reminder, Wugou Monk could no longer remain nonchalant, knowing that his old friend never spoke idly.

  "I know you've taken a liking to his younger brother's intelligence, but I'm warning you, don't get any ideas, or you might just end up dead. I even think he's already making preparations to deal with you, be careful, people like him have a reverse scale that can't be touched, whoever touches it will die."

  Yun Zheng was weaving a flower garland, but this garland had added a lot of Daphne. After finishing the garland, she washed her hands clean in a shallow little pool. There were also several small fish that hadn't escaped back to the stream in time in the pool. Not long after Yun Zheng washed her hands, they all floated on the water surface and didn't move anymore.

  "Master, this thing is poisonous!" Cured meat pointed at Yun Zheng's hand with the flower ring and said to him.

  "I know this is a gift I gave to the monk, and I hope he won't despise it." Yun Zheng replied slowly and calmly.

  This is Yun Zheng's warning to Wu Gou and the monks: as long as you don't kill me in the first place, I will make sure everyone in your temple dies. Sometimes, when it's time to fight for one's life, one can't be stingy with their own life; the more stingy they are, the more likely they'll lose their life.
