After finally surviving the night, I got up as soon as it was light the next day.
The time I agreed with Master Zhengyi was three-quarter noon, so as not to alert others and expose my true identity, so I stayed at Fugui Bank for another half day.
When it was approaching three quarters noon, I said goodbye to Zhirui and walked out of the store in a big way.
After leaving the store, I was worried that someone from Zhengyi would be following me, so I was very careful along the way.
I turned left and right several times in Fengdu City and finally escaped the ghost crowd.
The place we agreed on with the little Taoist priest was Orchid Pavilion, ten miles outside Fengdu City.
I discovered this pavilion on the map given by Master Zhengyi.
I happened to pass through here on my way to the Ice Hell, so I decided to meet here.
I left Fengdu City very smoothly, and I immediately used my fastest speed.
I believe that with my speed, I can definitely escape even if I am being followed.
The distance of ten miles is really not that long to me.
Within a few minutes, I was roaring over.
But what I didn't expect was that there were actually several ghost servants in official uniforms sitting in the Orchid Pavilion at this moment.
This discovery surprised me.
"Why is there a ghost here?
Where has he gone?
Could it be that I came too early?"
Thinking of this, I hurriedly hid aside and watched secretly.
But after nearly half an hour, the little Taoist priest was still not there.
Time is urgent now and I can't waste too much time.
"Why is Ma Cheng late?
Is he in any danger?"
Just when I was anxious, I saw a white shadow coming quickly from the direction of Fengdu City.
I looked up and saw that the white figure was the little Taoist priest.
Seeing this, I breathed a little sigh of relief, and then hurried forward to meet him.
"Ma Cheng, why are you here so late?"
As I got closer, I noticed something was wrong with the little Taoist priest's expression, as if something had really happened.
"Brother, your brother Liu was arrested."
"What was he arrested for?"
The little Taoist priest sighed softly and said: "I don't know why, but it should be related to Zhengyi Zhenren.
Those ghosts broke into the room and came to arrest me without saying a word.
Brother Liu wanted to let me escape.
He and the ghosts He fought hard and was finally caught.
I was afraid that you were too worried, so I escaped all the way. " After hearing this, I already had a feeling in my heart.
It seems that Master Zhengyi really has some tricks up his sleeve.
Even if I asked Zhirui to deliver the message for me, I still could not escape his surveillance.
The arrest of knife mad Liu Ying has a lot to do with me, but the top priority now is to rescue Ling'er first, and then find a way to save him after rescuing Ling'er.
I had an idea in my mind, so I said to the little Taoist priest: "Let's go to the Ice Hell first.
We can't let down Brother Liu's kindness.
After I rescue the black fox, I will come to rescue him."
The little Taoist priest nodded in agreement.
After we two brothers reunited, we rushed towards the direction of the Ice Hell.
Now there are ghosts occupying Youlan Pavilion on the only way, so we can only choose to bypass it.
It happened that there was a hill next to the pavilion.
The hill was not high, so it would not be difficult to cross it.

The little Taoist priest and I came to the foot of the hill very carefully, but fortunately we were not discovered by the ghosts.
What we didn't expect was that there was a narrow staircase on the hill.
The two of us directly raised our legs and stepped onto the steps, quickly going up.
In less than ten minutes, the two of us reached the top of the mountain.
Unexpectedly, there is a thatched cottage on the top of the mountain, and it seems that there are ghosts living in it.
The little Taoist priest and I looked at each other and decided to pass by the thatched cottage so as not to disturb the rest of the ghosts inside.
But who would have thought that as soon as he walked to the door of this thatched cottage, the door would open automatically.
At the same time, I saw a ghost coming out of it.
"Having friends come from afar, I am very pleased with the two benefactors.
This young monk is polite."
This ghost walked out of the thatched cottage, dressed in white monk clothes and with a bare head.
He turned out to be a jade-faced monk.
When I saw it was a monk, I quickly raised my hands and said, "Master, we have no intention of disturbing Qing Xiu, but we hope you can forgive me."
The little Taoist priest also quickly raised his hands.
The jade-faced monk looked at the two of us, smiled slightly and said: "The fact that you can go up the mountain and come to my thatched cottage shows that we have a close relationship.
Since we are passing by, please stop by the humble abode to have a chat.
I have some tea here, I hope.
It can help the two benefactors get rid of their irritation."
Hearing this, I quickly refused and said, "Master, we appreciate your kindness.
But I really have something important to do.
Why don't you wait until I finish handling the matter at hand before you come back to bother me."
With that, the little Taoist priest and I were going to Get out of here.
But at this moment, the jade-faced monk actually chuckled and said: "You are going to be in trouble, so why not drink two cups of warm tea from me for now, maybe you can resist the severe cold."
When he said this, I was surprised.
"Withstand the severe cold, does he know we are going to the Ice Hell?"
Thinking of this, I turned around and said with a slight smile: "Master, I don't know what you mean.
I don't understand.
Please give me some advice."
The jade-faced monk smiled and said nothing, turned around and walked into the thatched cottage.
As soon as I saw it, I quickly followed him in.
This thatched cottage is not large, but it is very clean and spotless inside.
But what makes me wonder is that this jade-faced monk is a monk.
Why is there not even a Buddha statue in this thatched cottage?
Is he a fake?
The jade-faced monk sat down on a straw mat in the room, then took the tea that had just been brewed in front of him and poured a cup for me and the little Taoist priest each.
Seeing this, I became even more confused.
The monk seemed to have known we were coming, so he had prepared tea in advance.
If so, this monk must be amazing.
Could it be that he knows the art of divination?
If so, he is really an eminent monk.
"Two benefactors, please sit down quickly and let the tea cool down, but it won't taste good."
When the little Taoist priest and I heard this, we were not polite and sat down directly.
As soon as I sat down, I immediately smelled the aroma of tea.
But we didn’t ask when we were standing just now.
This tea is really interesting.

The jade-faced monk extended his hand to us and said, "Two donors, please don't be polite."
To be honest, this jade-faced monk kept urging us to drink his tea, but I was a little afraid to drink it.
Who knows if there is poison in this tea.
Seeing that I didn't move, the jade-faced monk immediately drank a cup by himself, and then said: "I am a monk, how can I poison the tea?
Donor, you are worrying too much."
As soon as this statement came out, I was shocked.
"No way, this guy can read my mind.
Can he know what I'm thinking?"
Just when I was confused, the jade-faced monk said again: "I can't read minds, I can just see through your heart."
When he said this, I was completely stunned.
Today I really met an expert.
If nothing else, he can see through my heart and I can be called a true Buddha.
Now that he has talked about this, I will look timid if I don't drink tea.
I picked up the teacup and sniffed it under my nose, then drank it all.
When the little Taoist priest saw me drinking tea, he also drank a cup.
We put down the empty cups, and the jade-faced monk immediately filled another cup and said at the same time: "Two donors, how about this tea?"
When I heard this, I quickly responded: "This tea is smooth in the mouth and overflowing with mellow aroma.
It must be the best tea."
The jade-faced monk heard this, shook his head and said with a smile: "Donor, this is actually brewed with fallen leaves.
If it is not a good tea, you are in a hurry and have no intention of drinking it.
But if you taste it carefully, I'm afraid you won't have such a feeling.
Try another drink”
Hearing this, I had to take another drink.
But this time, I tasted it carefully.
To the end, I just felt that this tea was sweet and bitter, just like Coptis chinensis which is hard to swallow.
The jade-faced monk saw the bitter look on my face, and then he laughed and said: "How about this time I taste the true taste of the tea?
Isn't it hard to drink?"
I swallowed the tea in my mouth suddenly, and then said with a bitter smile: "Master, it is indeed as you said, this tea is really hard to swallow and extremely unpleasant to drink."
Hearing this, the jade-faced monk nodded with satisfaction, and then suddenly stretched out his hand.
On his palm were two red pills.
"This is the Fire Dragon Pill that can keep your body temperature warm for three days.
Remember to swallow it in critical moments.
There is only so much I can help you with.
In fact, everything is like making tea with leaves.
If you are impatient, just You will be deceived by your subconscious.
But when you calm down, you will find that this is not the case.
Please use this pill and rush to save people."
Hearing this, I immediately took the two pills and said thank you, "Thank you, Master, for giving me the pills.
I will take note of them."
Just when I lowered my head to look at the two pills, a golden light suddenly flashed before my eyes.
After I regained my sight, there was no thatched cottage on the top of the mountain, and there was no trace of the jade-faced monk.
At this moment, the little Taoist priest suddenly shouted in my ear: "Brother, you finally woke up.
Why did you faint suddenly?"
I was startled when I heard this and looked around.
Oh boy, I really fell to the ground.

"Ma Cheng, you just saw a monk and a thatched cottage."
The little Taoist priest heard this and said in confusion: "Brother, what nonsense are you talking about?
There are not even trees on this bare mountain.
How can there be any thatched huts?
As for the monks, there are no more."
I was shocked when I heard this.
"Did I see the Buddha spirit?"
At this moment, I thought of something.
I stretched out my hand and saw two fiery red pills lying in the palm of my hand.
Without saying anything else, I handed one of the pills to the little Taoist priest and said, "This is the Fire Dragon Pill.
It can resist the cold.
It must not be used until a critical moment."
The little Taoist priest took the pill and said doubtfully: "Brother, where did you get it?
Why haven't I heard you tell me about it before?"
Hearing this, I smiled slightly and said: "Don't leak the secret, let's go to the Ice Hell."
With that, the two of us floated down the mountain and ran all the way.
Although I don’t know who this jade-faced monk is, I believe he must be closely related to me.
If we meet again someday, I will definitely ask.
On the way, I kept thinking about a question, what is the meaning of the leaves making tea?
Is it trying to tell me that what I saw in the ice hell might be an illusion?
Everything can only be known by entering the Ice Hell
