Chapter 212.

Speaking of the nature of weirdness, if not for Zhou An having the information given by the Emperor, he probably wouldn’t have known that there was such a categorization about weirdness.

Some spooky, because after a person’s death, there was still residual grievances, they transformed into spooky existences, similar to the ghosts and monsters that were often rumored in the folklore.

Some spooky, is some ancient customs passed down, through the changes of time, and eventually turned into spooky, such as spooky assembly, is the evolution of the assembly.

There are also spooky things that come from human beliefs.

This kind of weirdness, is equivalent to hosted within the object.

There are good and bad beliefs.

Some beliefs give birth to resentment, and when the resentment condenses on the object of belief, the weirdness appears naturally.

Take for example the Evil Buddha in front of him.

“In some people’s homes, there are statues of Buddha placed and worshipped for years and years, but because of certain small things that don’t go their way, attributed to the statues, the grievances slowly appear.”

Wang Xin laughed bitterly, “We only discovered it recently, and after we found it, we immediately dealt with it.”

He was not expecting to meet his top boss at a critical moment, and it happened to be at the time of the accident.

It was like working for someone else, and the boss found out that something had gone wrong, and you were specifically in charge of this matter.

The boss will definitely be overly concerned to see if you are doing a good job.

This kind of pressure, Wang Xin felt great.

Especially since this top boss was still Zhou An.

The news from the capital was faster than Zhou An’s carriage.

There was the matter about Zhou An suppressing many heavenly prides in the capital by himself and shining in the competition, which had long since spread to Huaixi Jing.

To be honest, when the Huaixi Capital’s Zhen Gui Division knew that Zhou An was coming to take up his post, there were a few people who were actually unconvinced.

However, shortly afterward, the fact that Zhou An had killed a Psychic Realm Creepy by himself had spread, and no one in the Huaixi Capital’s Town Creepy Division spoke up.

Zhou An’s strength was already enough, coupled with his reputation nowadays, anyone else who dared to talk nonsense would be asking for trouble.

“My lord, don’t worry, this matter will definitely be handled well and won’t cause trouble for your lordship.” Wang Xin said.

Zhou An sniffed and shook his head, “I am also a member of the Zhen Gui Si, I also have a share of responsibility when something goes wrong, tell me, how far have things progressed, and what are your intentions for blocking here?”

In his position to seek his own business.

Zhou An was a very principled person.

He could touch fish in his position, but when it came to things, he couldn’t stay out of it.

If it wasn’t this position, then there was nothing for him to do, but now that he was in this position, he naturally had to take care of it.

Wang Xin saw that Zhou An did not show signs of anger, his heart was also relieved, secretly saying that the Lord Zhou in front of him was not as scary as the legends.

Of course, on the surface is on the surface, what is inside is anyone’s guess.

Wang Xin is also an old member of the Huai Xi Jing Zhen Gui Si, of course, he knows this set of reasoning.

Thinking about this, Wang Xin told the story of what happened.

“After discovering the shenanigans, we started to deal with it, and later realized that it actually had something to do with a temple that had recently sprung up.”

“That temple is of the Buddhist Sect, and it’s in this neighborhood, and the items that have been circulated about the weirdness are related to this temple.”

“When the people went to the temple to offer incense, the people from the temple gave them all sorts of small objects, saying that as long as they were sincere in their offerings, they would be able to get what they wanted.”

Wang Xin began to explain.

Things gradually came to the surface.

When Zhou An finished listening, he had come to an understanding.

That temple was called the Heart’s Peace Temple, and it was on the mountain not far behind.

There were more than thirty members of the Zhen Gui Si who had come on this trip, and a few of Wang Xin’s people were stopping here for fear that the people passing by would be in danger.

As for the remaining thirty people, they were heading to the Xin An Temple to conduct an investigation.

Zhou An frowned and turned his head to the coachman, saying, “Change your path and head to Huai Xi Jing yourself, don’t worry about me.”

The cart driver was following along on this journey, and was going to go to Huaixi Jing on the way.

In their line of work, it was originally like this.

Rest and recuperate when they arrive at a place, and if needed, travel to another place, sort of running around the sky, south and north.

The driver was very understanding, knowing that Zhou An had important matters to deal with, he didn’t make a fuss, nodded and left alone.

This place was hardly much of a distance from Huai Xi Jing, and Zhou An was able to make it alone.

Before leaving, Black Jade carried the chair down again and handed it to Zhou An with a dumbfounded expression.

Zhou An received it in his hands and placed the chair into the pink money bag.

After the pink money bag had been expanded, it was already able to hold these things.

Of the ones that Ding Bu San had given in the beginning, the only thing that Zhou An didn’t bother with was the armor.

He was in a hurry to liver proficiency and was not interested in the things on the armor.

Moreover, now that Casting Body had already developed in the direction that the casting industry did not dare to go, going to study that armor was just putting the cart before the horse.

When everything was ready, Zhou An turned his head to Wang Xin.

“Give me a position.”

Wang Xin was slightly stunned, “My lord, you want to go there personally?”

Zhou An nodded.

Listening to what Wang Xin had said just now, that Xin An Temple definitely had problems.

Then …… if there were problems, solve them.

After solving those problems, one can then settle down to liver proficiency.

The outstanding thing is to solve all the unsettling ones, then there will only be peace.

Wang Xin looked at Zhou An’s expression and knew that Zhou An was not joking and hurriedly told Zhou An the exact location.

Zhou An held Black Jade’s hand and said, “You guys continue to guard this place, don’t let the people come over.”

“Yes!” Wang Xin led the members of the Zhen Gui Si to lower their heads and responded respectfully.

When they raised their heads, they heard a violent wind sound.

In the sky, the figures of Zhou An and Black Jade had disappeared at the end.

“It will …… fly!” Wang Xin swallowed his saliva with difficulty, “The Innate Realm can fly, brothers, we, Huai Xi Jing, have come to a great man of the top.”

The others silently looked at the sky, their hearts palpitating.

Fortunately, they had all conceded after hearing the news that Zhou An was in the capital, and none of them were unconvinced.

Otherwise, they would only be beaten up hard right now.

“Brothers do a good job, you can’t make any mistakes, Lord Zhou can see it in his eyes.” Wang Xin greeted.

Only then did the crowd earnestly keep watch.

—————–

At this moment, Zhou An was soaring in the sky as he executed the Flying Dragon Stance.

Black Jade, on the other hand, was holding Zhou An’s arm and looking around curiously.

How fast the Flying Dragon Stance was.

In just a matter of moments, Zhou An had arrived in the air above his target.

He surveyed the mountain peak and secretly said what a feng shui treasure.

The mountain peak was facing the blue sky, as if a lofty giant stood there.

The mountain was covered with thick green vegetation, forming a massive natural barrier.

Climbing up from the foot of the mountain, you can see colorful flowers blooming on the mountain, and from time to time, birds fly by and make happy chirps.

The path winds up the mountain, lined with dense trees, and the sunlight pours through the leaves, creating a warm patch of light.

Walking to the top of the mountain, one could overlook the entire valley, the clouds drifting overhead, undulating like waves.

Since Zhou An was at a high place, he also saw the Heart’s Peace Temple.

The Heart’s Peace Temple was located on top of a high mountain, surrounded by dense forests and clear streams.

In front of the temple gate, there was a green stone bridge with a school of goldfish playing in the water.

In the courtyard, one can then see a tall statue of Buddha with a kind smile on his face, which is reassuring and calming.

There are three rooms in the temple, namely the main hall, the small hall and the consecration room.

The main hall is spacious and bright, with a simple and generous layout, leaving an open space for visitors to burn incense and worship Buddha.

The small halls are small but well organized.

The consecration room is responsible for the offering of incense and Buddhist utensils.

Behind the temple, there is a stone staircase that goes up around the mountain, looking out into the distance, one can see the scenery of growing things and gurgling water.

Next to the stone steps is a small stream, which gurgles and flows in a refreshing and pleasant manner, accompanied by the chirping of birds ringing out, adding a touch of life and vitality to the mountains and forests.

Although the temple was small, the sparrow was small, but it had all its organs.

Zhou An stroked his chin, looking at the scene below from high in the air, thinking, “Things aren’t simple.”

At this moment, in the courtyard, thirty members of the Zhen Gui Si were confronting a group of monks.

There were dozens of monks as well, all stopping the scene and preventing the members of the Zhen Gui Division from taking a step forward.

“Logically, the members of the Zhen Gui Division, should not care about these things, and just forcefully break through.”

Zhou An thought, “It seems that the situation is complicated.”

While pondering, Zhou An brought the Black Jade with him and fell from the sky.

Complicated?

It didn’t exist.

For Zhou An, what he needed was a speed pass.

Speed pass first, and liver proficiency after the speed pass.

Nothing else matters.

If you stop me and don’t let me speed through, then you have a grudge against my proficiency.

If you have a grudge against my proficiency, then I will take you all away.

At this time, both sides are still in the posture of confrontation.

Between each other you do not let me, I also do not let you.

But neither of them made a move.

Just at this time, a gale suddenly made a sound.

The crowd subconsciously looked up and saw two figures descending from the sky and landing in the middle of the two sides.

As this scene appeared, everyone present froze.

None of them could figure out what was going on with this sudden scene.

But it was clear to everyone that the current situation seemed to have been broken.

Zhou An looked around the crowd for a moment and suddenly pointed at the person who was obviously the leader of the Zhen Gui Division and said, “What is your name, what is the situation here, simply and directly.”

The member of the Town Guile Division who was pointed at was slightly stunned.

Truly speaking, ever since he had worked in the sect of the Zhen Gui Si, he had never been spoken to like this before.

In Huaixi Jing, which Jianghu people were not respectful when they saw them.

But next, when the leading member of the Zhen Gui Si saw Zhou An’s appearance, he suddenly realized that everything was normal.

“This lord, is here!”

In just a moment, the leading Zhen Gui Si member was clear and agile.

Without clarity and agility, they wouldn’t be able to make it to this position.

“I, Zong Shan Yin, am the head of C of the A-word room of the Zhen Gui Division.” Zong Shan Yin answered quickly.

In the Zhen Gui Division, there were also branches under it.

The four rooms of A, B, C, and D corresponded to the capital states, prefectures, and counties.

Among the four houses, there were also A, B, C, and D houses.

The one with the word “chief” is the one who manages the affairs of the first house.

As for the others, they are collectively called “officers”.

The Zong Shan Yin in front of him was the head of Room A, Room C.

Zhou An stroked his chin and said, “Follow-up.”

He was brief and concise, without half a sentence of nonsense.

Zong Shan Yin hurriedly said, “My lord, we suspected that Xin An Temple had something to do with this parasite weirdness, so we came over to search first.”

“But these monks blocked and wouldn’t let us search.”

“So the standoff is here.”

Zhou An frowned, “What kind of punishment should be meted out for obstructing the Zhen Gui Si’s work, aren’t you clear about that?”

The implication was that when the Zhen Gui Division was doing its business and was blocked like this, where was the face.

After these words were uttered, before Zong Shan Yin could reply, on the side of the monk camp, the leading middle-aged monk spoke.

“Scholar Zhou An, Xin An Temple has not had anything to do with the shenanigans, nor will it have anything to do with the shenanigans.”

“The abbot is practicing in seclusion, so naturally he cannot be disturbed, and you have no evidence, so you may not trespass.”

In the words, although polite, they were very forceful.

The tone was as if they would not let the Zhen Gui Si in if they were here.

Zhou An stroked his chin and said, “You recognize me?”

The middle-aged monk clasped his hands together, “As Scholar Zhou is now famous, the poor monk naturally recognizes him.”

“Then why are you still talking nonsense?” Zhou An said.

The middle-aged monk froze, “Monk Zhou, what do you mean by that?”

Zhou An lifted his right hand, and the Transforming Gold Ring changed into a black blade, “Since you recognize me, you know that those who stand in my way will all end up in a miserable situation, and you want to buck the trend?”

As the words fell, a touch of fury appeared on Zhou An’s body.

The middle-aged monk’s face chilled, “Master Zhou, you may not know that this is the Xin’an Temple, and although the Xin’an Temple is not a very large temple, above the Xin’an Temple, there is one of the Ten Great Temples, the Qinghuang Temple, and we are affiliated with the Qinghuang Temple.”

Zhou An nodded and turned his head, “Is that the reason why you guys are stumbling?”

Zong Shan Yin smiled bitterly, “Lord Zhou is unaware that in the Great Chu Kingdom, the Buddhist Sect is a very special position.”

“I know.” Zhou An said.

Regarding the situation of the Buddhist Sect, Zhou An himself was actually clear about it.

In the Great Chu Country, the lineage of Qi Refiners was somewhat complicated.

Those who frequently refined Qi knew that Qi Refiners were actually complicated, but there was nothing bigger than the Buddha and Taoist Sect.

The leader of the Taoist Sect in the Great Chu Kingdom was the State Master, which was put aside for the moment.

This is the only Buddhist sect that does not hold an official position in the state of Da Chu.

But it doesn’t mean that the Buddhist Sect doesn’t have power.

In the beginning, when the Da Chu Kingdom was established, in fact, the Buddhist Sect had also made a contribution.

And the temples that had made a contribution were now all top ten temples.

The example of the Green and Yellow Temple was the most special.

Because at the time of the establishment of the Great Chu Kingdom, the abbot of the Green Yellow Temple, a supreme master, died in battle.

It was also one of the very few top masters to die in battle at that time.

So Emperor Xingwu gave Qinghuang Temple an imperial decree.

The meaning is very simple, the Great Chu Kingdom will not be destroyed, the Qinghuang Temple will prosper.

It was because of this that Zong Shan Yin was somewhat hesitant.

Xin’an Temple was dependent on Qinghuang Temple, and Qinghuang Temple had an imperial decree hanging over it.

This was what made it difficult for them to do.

“Difficult to do, so you won’t do it?” Zhou An said.

Zong Shan Yin opened his mouth.

Zhou An continued, “To die in battle for the Great Chu Kingdom is indeed worthy of admiration, especially for a supreme expert, it is even more worthy of admiration, but this is not the time to go for privileges, privileges can be had, but principles cannot be lost.”

In his thoughts, it was normal for those with contributions to have privileges.

But this privilege, cannot interfere with the principle.

For example, right now, the Zhen Gui Si was going about his business routinely, and this was a matter of principle.

If you mess with the principle, then you will be beaten.

“Do it.” Zhou An just said two words.

Zong Shan Yin took a deep breath.

To be honest, this was the first time they had been treated like this.

They had no selfishness, they had only come over to investigate the shenanigans and seek stability for the people.

Yet they were stopped outside like dogs.

Now, Zhou An had come.

Zhou An gave the order.

Then, there was no need to care.

“Clank!”

The sound of drawing swords resounded endlessly.

A group of martial artists who fought in the Jianghu, when they started to go toe-to-toe, that aura instantly rose up to the sky.

The monk camp that was blocking the front was rushed by the aura, and a few of them even subconsciously took a step back.

The middle-aged monk’s face turned white, “Monk Zhou, do you really want to cross paths with the Green Yellow Temple?”

“Snap!”

In response to him, there was a crisp slap.

Zhou An withdrew his hand, looked at the middle-aged monk whose face had swollen up, and laughed coldly, “What kind of a thing are you that you dare to bark in front of me, even if an old man of the Tongling Realm came over, he would have to respectfully call me Lord Zhou.”

“Wow!”

The members of the Zhen Gui Si took a step forward.

The monks took a step back.

The Zhen Gui Si member took another step forward.

There was some fear in the monk camp.

The cold light on those weapons seemed to be telling them, this is Huaixi Capital, this is the place under the jurisdiction of the Zhen Gui Si, you can just be good monks.

Especially Zhou An, although he was still standing in place, it was as if he was a high mountain that people could not help but look up to.

“Boom!”

The battle erupted.

This group of monks were nothing more than monks dependent on the Green and Yellow Temple, so how could they be a match for the Zhen Gui Si, and just now, they were completely relying on the face of the Green and Yellow Temple.

In just a moment, this group of monks were all subdued.

Zong Shan Yin snapped and slapped the middle-aged monk, before he said to Zhou An, “My Lord, it has been resolved!”

In Zong Shan Yin’s eyes, there was a glow of excitement.

Not only him, but even the other members of the Zhen Gui Si were the same.

They were originally worried that the superior who came was a person with scruples and would be tied up in doing things.

After all, a soldier is a bear and a general is a bear.

But now, it seemed that not only was Lord Zhou not afraid of things, but he also seemed to be more capable of getting things done than they were!

It was so cool!

Zong Shan Yin only felt great.

Zhou An swept a glance at the mess all over the ground, looked at the main hall in front of him, and said, “The abbot hasn’t come out until now, it seems to be closed down and dead, go in and search.”

The brat that blocked the way had already been resolved, so all that was left was to meet this so-called abbot.

The middle-aged monk didn’t dare to say a word at this time.

He knew in his heart that the other party was not afraid of the so-called Green Yellow Temple at all.

Since the other party was not afraid, then he would be asking for trouble if he said harsh words again.

Zhou An looked at the main hall in front of him and took the first step into it.

Inside the main hall, there were simple furnishings.

In the very center, was a huge Buddha statue.

Other than that, it was empty.

Zong Shan Yin sent a few people to specifically watch over the group of monks, before bringing the rest of them and following behind Zhou An.

After the crowd came in, there was naturally a search.

But after the search, no clues were found.

There wasn’t even a single person.

“Go to the inner courtyard.” Zhou An said.

Then, under Zhou An’s leadership, they bypassed the main hall and headed to the inner courtyard.

The inner courtyard was smaller than the outside, yet it was much more exquisite.

Not only was it well furnished, but a rockery was placed here.

Surrounding it were ordinary disciples’ rooms, while the most eye-catching part of the inner courtyard was the large house not far ahead.

According to the rules, that was the abbot’s residence.

“Open it.” Zhou An said indifferently.

Zong Shan Yin stepped forward and kicked the door open.

When the door was kicked open, the inside of the room appeared.

When Zhou An saw the scene inside, a rare flash of anger emerged in his eyes.

Not only Zhou An, but even the other members of the Zhen Gui Si, all revealed the same expression, the kind of anger that was on the verge of spewing out of their eyes.

The room was incomparably dim, and due to the reason that the windows around it were all sealed, not a single ray of light could be seen in the room at this time.

As the door was opened, after the only light entered, the situation inside was finally revealed.

Inside the room, various Buddha statues were placed.

These statues were made of copper and looked ordinary, with the large ones being the size of a millstone and the small ones being only the size of a palm.

And underneath the Buddha statues, there are rows and rows of …… dead people.

To be precise, these were not people who had just died recently, but had been dead for a long time.

On some of the corpses, they were already rotting, with all kinds of maggots crawling everywhere, looking disgusting to the extreme.

Some even only had white bones left.

And the Buddha statue was placed on these corpses and bones.

Zhou An turned his head and said, “Have there been any recent records of a large number of people dying?”

Here, there were hundreds of corpses and bones.

Zong Shan Yin shook his head and said, “There are no records, no one has died in large numbers.”

Just after saying this, Zong Shan Yin seemed to remember something and hurriedly replied.

“There was an incident on the Yamen side, it seems like a lot of people reported that their graves were being dug up.”

“The constables treated it as a grave-robbing incident, and it hasn’t been solved yet.”

Like, too much like.

Especially with the dirt still on the body, it was as if it had been dug up alive.

Zhou An stroked his chin and said, “After a person dies, they already have grievances, and being dug up has even more grievances.”

“By placing the Buddha statue on the corpse, the grievances were transferred to the statue, and the statue naturally became parasitic and bizarre.”

“Your thinking is skewed, it’s not parasitic because of the people, it’s parasitic because of these corpses.”

“He gave the statue of Buddha to the people who believed in Buddhism, and naturally, brought the weirdness out.”

Having said that, everything was made clear.

“Bring those monks up.” Zhou An said.

Zong Shan Yin hurriedly nodded his head and called for those monks to be escorted into the backyard.

When the monks arrived, they all froze when they saw the scene in the room.

The scene in front of them was just too shocking.

Xin An Temple, a Buddhist temple, yet there was this kind of filthiness within, if it was spread out, it would surely be discredited.

“Perhaps, it’s not a matter of losing reputation now.” The middle-aged monk thought in his heart.

It was already good enough to be alive after such a thing appeared.

He also looked at Zhou An with praying eyes.

Zhou An asked, “Do you know about what happened here?”

The middle-aged monk shook his head quickly, “I don’t know, we really don’t know, the abbot said that he has been in seclusion and hasn’t come out, just that from time to time, statues of Buddha are transported out from the room.”

Zong Shan Yin said, “My lord, all of them are escorted back to the dungeon of the Zhen Gui Division, everything will naturally be clear.”

In the Zhen Gui Division, there was never a person in the dungeon who didn’t open his mouth.

In fact, according to this logic, it was also right.

But Zhou An did not want to do that.

“Escorting them back is a certainty, but I’m a little impatient.” Zhou An said.

When it was said that a speedy pass would be a speedy pass.

Zhou An ran the air in his body, and in the next moment, the golden Eight Trigrams floated in front of his eyes.

Unseen by the onlookers, when the golden eight trigrams appeared, it began to slowly rotate.

Zhou An used this matter as the basis for his fortune telling.

The attributes unique to the Eight Trigrams Arithmetic were exerted at this moment.

A golden line, derived continuously from the top of the golden bagua, went far away in one direction.

“Running away, but can’t get away.” Zhou An turned his head and said, “You guys escort them back, I’ll go take a look.”

Zong Shan Yin hurriedly nodded his head.

Only then did Zhou An take Black Jade and fly off in a direction.

At the scene, Zong Shan Yin and the others were left behind.

Zong Shan Yin was also a practical person and said, “Escort all of them back to the Zhen Gui Si and bring them to the dungeon to interrogate them once more to see if they have told any lies.”

“Yes!” The members of the Zhen Gui Division hurriedly replied.

After answering, they left with the group of monks.

As for those Buddha statues, they were all destroyed, eliminating the breeding of weirdness.

It didn’t take long for the area to return to silence.

—————–

Zhou An brought the Black Jade with him and headed towards the guidance of the golden threads at an extremely fast speed.

While flying, he operated his Thousand Miles Eyes, and everything around him became invisible before his eyes.

Zhou An saw that ahead of him, there was a silhouette that was running wildly.

But the silhouette wasn’t fast, so the distance was drawing in.

When he was able to see clearly, Zhou An then saw the true face of the silhouette.

It was an old monk.

Although he was already old, his gait was more athletic than an ordinary person.

Above the old monk’s legs, there was Buddhist light flickering, acting as an accelerator.

What attracted the most attention was the old monk’s back.

Behind the old monk, there was a Buddha statue of equal height on his back, which was lifelike.

Seemingly sensing Zhou An’s proximity, the old monk glanced back with a look of horror on his face and continued to turn his head and run wildly.

The speed was surprisingly much faster than the beginning.

However, this kind of speed was useless to Zhou An.

Seeing the two sides gradually approaching, the old monk took a deep breath, his face revealing a look of ruthlessness, and turned around to insert the Buddha statue, which was equal in height, into the ground.

The Buddha statue was so heavy that the ground was shaken.

The old monk folded his hands together and pressed on the Buddha statue.

Immediately afterward, the Buddha statue unexpectedly began to gradually distort.

A ray of Buddha light shot out from the eyes of the Buddha statue, shooting towards Zhou An.

However, in the next moment, a scene appeared that stunned the old monk.

Zhou An didn’t even make a move, and that Buddha light shot towards the old monk in the opposite direction at a much faster speed.

And the Buddha light that shot in was not only faster in terms of speed, it was also much more powerful.

“Boom!”

A roaring sound came.

At the critical moment, the old monk lifted the Buddha statue and placed it in front of his body.

The Buddha light landed on the statue, which was surprisingly intact.

The battle just now happened in just a split second, but how fast Zhou An’s Flying Dragon Stance was.

When the fight happened, Zhou An had already arrived in front of the old monk.

“Abbot?” Zhou An asked.

The old monk nodded his head and was just about to say a few words.

Whether it was to beg for mercy or otherwise.

But before his words could come out, Zhou An’s knife directly penetrated through his body.

The old monk felt the pain coming from his chest, and felt his body heat being gradually lost.

In his ears, he heard Zhou An’s words.

“Saying goodbye to the speedy pass and letting you say a second word, that’s not called a speedy pass.”

Zhou An shook the black blade in his hand.

In the next moment, the old monk’s body fragmented and turned into a pile of mush.

Zhou An looked at the flesh and mud on the ground and lamented, “After all, I can’t cut it like my aunt did in the beginning.”

The entire process, from the beginning, was only a few breaths of time.

After Zhou An finished resolving this old monk, he turned his head to look at the Buddha statue next to him again, revealing an interested expression.

This thing, it was a bit interesting.

Just now, he had used the rebound attribute of the Read a Thousand Scrolls, which was eight times the rebound power, but when it landed on this Buddha statue, not only did it block all of it, but this Buddha statue was not even damaged in the slightest.

This was the point that Zhou An found interesting.

The old monk was the abbot of the Xin An Temple, yet even when he was escaping, he still did not forget to bring this Buddha statue with him.

The problem was naturally self-evident.

This Buddha statue, it was important.

Thinking about this, Zhou An carefully examined it.

The Buddha statue was solemn and terrifying, but if one looked carefully, one would realize that this Buddha statue was actually quite ugly, and its ugly features were creepy.

Obviously, the five features were normal, but when they came together, they just felt ugly.

Where the eyes of the Buddha statue were located, there were blood red gemstones inlaid.

The Buddha’s light just now was emitted from the eyes of this Buddha statue.

When Zhou An observed the eyes, he realized that these eyes carried two emotions, the left eye represented joy and the right eye represented sadness, as if telling some untold secrets.

On top of that, the Buddha statue’s movements were also a bit strange.

It did not fold its hands like other Buddha statues.

The palms of its hands were spread outward, as if they had broken bones, and they were hardwired to face outward.

The entire Buddha statue, with a sense of oppression, oppressed everything around it, seemingly grasping a powerful force.

“A bit interesting.” Zhou An stroked his chin.

He did not touch this Buddha statue rashly, for the unknown, Zhou An always kept a vigilant mind.

He was strong, but even if he was strong, no one liked to fall in the gutter.

Thinking about this, Zhou An directly activated the Eight Trigrams Arithmetic.

After the ability to count trigrams unfolded, in the next moment, Zhou An began to measure good and bad fortune.

Before his eyes, a golden color, great auspiciousness!

“No problem then.”

The word that stood out to Zhou An was the word stability.

He tried touching the Buddha statue with the black blade, overdoing the air into it.

Probing with the air, this was a special tactic for people in the line of work.

But unfortunately, Zhou An did not find that there was anything inside.

The inside of the Buddha statue was empty, nothing, nothing like the kind of Buddha light that was released just now.

Zhou An touched his chin, “Can’t tell, but it’s not a big problem, just destroy it directly.”

This Buddha statue was mysterious, but it was of little interest to Zhou An.

If it was good for proficiency, then Zhou An would not hesitate to take it away.

Unfortunately, it had nothing to do with proficiency.

Although Bagua Arithmetic indicated that it was fine, Zhou An didn’t want to keep a scourge.

He raised his hand, ready to destroy the Buddha statue, and as for the secret, to hell with it.

But before Zhou An could swing his long knife, the Black Jade next to him suddenly made a move.
