Chen Yan, who was sunbathing in the backyard next door and watching the turtles crawl, could naturally hear it too...
"Xiao Bei, how could you say I told you to ask?!"
Wang Yuyan's face turned bright red instantly, and she stammered as she spoke.
"You were just curious to begin with."
Mo Xiaobei winked mischievously.
Wang Yuyan was stunned for a moment, and finally had no answer.
His heart could only race slightly as he held his breath and waited for Chen Yan's reply.
After a few breaths.
Chen Yan's voice drifted clearly from next door: "Xiao Bei, tell Miss Wang that I am a man, um, a real man."
Upon hearing this, Mo Xiaobei burst out laughing.
Wang Yuyan was both amused and embarrassed, her face turning bright red.
But at the same time, she felt that the way Chen Yan spoke to her was peculiar, giving her an inexplicable sense of relaxation.
Compared to the serious and formal way she interacted with her cousin Murong Fu, she preferred this relaxed approach...
"Hey! Shopkeeper! A customer's here! Come out and greet them!"
At this time. 0
From the fortune-telling shop came Wanwan's shouts...5
Chapter Ninety-Four: The Collapse of Kumārajīva, Chen Yan's Fury! 8
"Shopkeeper, a customer has arrived! Come out and greet them!"
Wanwan's voice wasn't quiet either. 7
Not only Chen Yan in the backyard heard it, but all the martial arts figures in Tongfu Inn also heard it.
They all rushed next door, eager to watch the spectacle. 9
"Come on, Sister Yuyan, let's go see what's going on!"
Mo Xiaobei grabbed Wang Yuyan's hand and ran to the next room.
When the two of them arrived, a large crowd had already gathered outside the fortune-telling shop. However, knowing that the people from Tongfu Inn had a good relationship with Master Chen, all the martial arts practitioners consciously made way for them and gave them a good spot to stand in front.
"Miss Wang, come quick, come quick! Here's a good spot. Want some sunflower seeds?"
Tong Xiangyu greeted her warmly and even handed her a handful of melon seeds.
Wang Yuyan took the melon seeds, thanked them, and looked towards the fortune-telling shop.
When I saw the customer standing outside the fortune teller's shop.
Wang Yuyan froze, a look of surprise and a hint of fear appearing on her face.
She recognized the man who had come to Chen Yan for fortune-telling. He was tall, with long earlobes, and dressed in Tibetan monk's robes. He was none other than the Tibetan National Preceptor... Kumārajīva!
"Sister Yu Yan, have you seen him?"
Noticing the unusual expression on Wang Yuyan's face, Mo Xiaobei asked her what was wrong.
Wang Yuyan nodded.
She did know Kumārajīva; he had almost kidnapped her back then.
In her mind, Kumārajīva was a powerful and ruthless person, which made her somewhat afraid.
Just now.
Kumārajīva stood outside the fortune-telling shop, his face calm and humble, showing no sign of fierceness or domineering.
She knew that this was all because Kumārajīva respected Master Chen's reputation, so he kept his head down and acted meekly.
"Hey, Manager Chen is much more impressive than my cousin. Even Kumārajīva has such an arrogant attitude when he sees my cousin..."
Wang Yuyan sighed, ceasing her thoughts, and focused on looking at Kumārajīva, wondering what question he wanted to ask Chen Yan...
Wuqing and Wanwan left the fortune-telling shop, and 647 stood in front of Kumārajīva.
One person is carrying a tray, and the other is carrying a wooden box.
Kumārajīva was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening.
He took out the silver and placed it on the tray, then reached into the wooden box to draw the conditions.
"I hope this monk is unlucky and draws an awkward condition. Amitabha..."
Wanwan stared intently at Kumārajīva without blinking.
The little devil inside me is cheering again.
But the result disappointed her again.
Kumārajīva drew a blank sheet of paper...
A look of joy appeared on his face.
Kumārajīva unfolded a sheet of white paper, showed it to Chen Yan, chanted a Buddhist prayer, and said, "Master Chen, may I ask my questions now?"
"of course."
Chen Yan sat inside the fortune-telling shop and nodded.
After a moment's thought, Kumārajīva asked, "What I would like to ask you, Immortal Master, is Mr. Murong Bo truly a cunning and treacherous villain who would stop at nothing to restore his kingdom?"
As soon as he spoke...
The people around were stunned.
Surprisingly, Kumārajīva did not ask questions about himself, but instead asked questions about Murong Bo.
Wang Yuyan's heart stirred.
Looking back, she remembered hearing Kumārajīva mention Murong Bo, who seemed to have done him a favor long ago, for which he was very grateful.
"Could it be that this monk has come to avenge Murong Bo and question Manager Chen?"
Wang Yuyan secretly made a guess.
If Chen Yan knew what she was thinking, he would laugh his head off.
Murong Bo did indeed do Kumārajīva a favor, and Kumārajīva greatly admired and was grateful to Murong Bo.
But she wasn't grateful enough for Murong Bo to challenge and question her.
He asked this question mostly for his own sake.
Because, if Murong Bo is truly a bad person, why is he so kind to Kumārajīva? (bdcf)
Could there be some conspiracy hidden in this?
This is what Kumārajīva most wanted to know.
Of course, this was one of the reasons why Kumārajīva did not completely believe that Murong Bo was a bad person.
Thinking of this, Chen Yan didn't point it out, but simply nodded slowly: "Indeed, the Murong family has always been willing to use any means to restore the Great Yan Kingdom, except for Murong Fu, who has now entered the Buddhist order."
Kumārajīva felt a slight unease.
He thought the same thing as Chen Yan.
My biggest worry is still myself.
Could Murong Bo be using me because he's being nice to me?
Thinking of this, he took out another silver ingot and asked, "Master Chen, why does Elder Murong Bo favor this humble monk so much? He not only instructed me in martial arts and gave me more than thirty Shaolin skills, but also told me that the strongest sword technique is the Six Meridians Divine Sword of Dali Kingdom."
I have no relation to him, and we've never met before, which puzzles me greatly.
The people around looked surprised.
Unexpectedly, there is such a little-known story between Murong Bo and Kumārajīva.
Chen Yan looked at Kumārajīva, smiled, and asked in return, "Don't you already have the answer in your heart? Why do you still need to ask me?"
Kumārajīva was shocked.
He never expected that Master Chen could see through his inner thoughts.
He gave a bitter smile: "This humble monk only has an idea, but I am not yet certain, so I came here to seek confirmation from Master Chen."
Back then, Master Murong Bo truly took good care of me. I... I'm somewhat hesitant and unwilling to believe that he was deceiving me or using me.
Chen Yan shook his head.
Unexpectedly, Kumārajīva's gratitude towards Murong Bo was even deeper than he had imagined.
Also.
When Kumārajīva came out of the Central Plains, he was completely clueless about everything. Murong Bo, as a senior, really gave him a great deal of guidance, which left a deep impression on him.
He then said, "Murong Bo is indeed using you."
His reason for taking advantage of you is quite simple.
The purpose of teaching you dozens of Shaolin martial arts techniques is to allow you to simultaneously cultivate multiple advanced martial arts, thereby causing you to go mad and eliminate a formidable enemy for the future restoration of the Great Yan Kingdom.
