Chapter 3

In the city of Hengshan, Bai Xiaosheng pulled Lin Pingzhi and quickly walked through the streets, soon finding the Huayan Tower. However, the fight at Huayan Tower had already ended, and upon inquiring, he learned that the fight had ended more than a quarter of an hour ago.

Bai Xiaosheng was not willing to give up. He first went upstairs to search, asking the waiters, but unfortunately, everyone had either been scared away or was attracted by the gambling match between Linghuchong and Tian Boguang, paying no attention to others.

Unable to find anyone, Bai Xiaosheng was naturally unwilling to give up. He then pulled Lin Pingzhi and walked around the streets, searching for that person. Carrying Lin Pingzhi, Bai Xiaosheng could not move very fast, and he became anxious. He threw Lin Pingzhi aside and said, "You go to Huayan Tower and wait for me. I will find the person and come to you immediately." With that, he shot off. Lin Pingzhi stretched out his hand and opened his mouth, but could not say anything, only watching as Bai Xiaosheng's figure disappeared around the corner.

Shaking his head, Lin Pingzhi patted the dust off his clothes and was about to head to Huayan Tower. However, as he lifted his head, he saw several Qingcheng disciples. His eyes immediately filled with hatred, and he forgot what Bai Xiaosheng had just said. He followed the few people, and before long, he entered Liu's residence. By the time he realized it, he was already in the hall, seeing Yu Canghai. His heart was full of resentment, and he stood in a corner of the crowd, staring at Yu Canghai with intense hatred.

On the other side, without Lin Pingzhi's burden, Bai Xiaosheng moved much faster. He quickly searched the streets for the big monk's figure. After wandering through half of Hengshan City, he finally saw the big monk on a street. Bai Xiaosheng was overjoyed, but as he looked up, he saw a red lantern hanging outside a shop with the words "Qunyu Courtyard" written on it.

'What a coincidence?' Bai Xiaosheng was surprised. He knew that Linghuchong was recuperating here, and the big monk was also here. According to the later plot, the big monk did not know Yilin or Linghuchong and did not even care about the incident at Huayan Tower. Otherwise, he would not have called Linghuchong a sickly man when they met later.

'No matter...' Seeing the big monk about to leave, Bai Xiaosheng immediately shouted, "Master Bu Jie, wait a moment."

The big monk stopped and turned to look at Bai Xiaosheng. The monk was over seven feet tall, almost as tall as Yao Ming in modern times. As he turned, Bai Xiaosheng was right in front of him, standing a head shorter.

"Kid, do you know the monk?" Bu Jie looked at Bai Xiaosheng for a moment, puzzled.

Bai Xiaosheng nodded and said, "Master, I have heard of you." He quickly explained his purpose, "Master, I need your help with something. Please lend me a hand."

"Go away, go away, go away. The monk has no time." Bu Jie looked impatient and turned to leave. Bai Xiaosheng knew it was not good and immediately said, "Master, your daughter is also in Hengshan. Don't you want to see her? She was bullied today."

"What did you say?" The monk was shocked and quickly turned back. Despite his tall and large build, he was very fast. Before Bai Xiaosheng could react, the monk had already grabbed him by the shoulders and lifted him up.

It hurts! Bai Xiaosheng cried out in pain, "Monk, don't be so hasty. How can I speak if you do this?"

"Humph!" Bu Jie coldly snorted and let go of one hand but still held Bai Xiaosheng with the other. He smiled bitterly and looked around, "Master, should we find a place to talk in detail?"

"Alright!" Although Bu Jie was not bound by formalities, it was not good to talk on the street. He pulled Bai Xiaosheng into a nearby tavern. Once seated, the monk impatiently said, "Kid, speak quickly. Where is my daughter? Who bullied her? I will tear him apart."

Bai Xiaosheng took a deep breath. The monk's words were filled with killing intent. In the original story, he did not kill Tian Boguang, which was quite lucky for the villain.

Calming down, Bai Xiaosheng quickly said, "Monk, your daughter is Yilin from the Hengshan Sect. Do you remember what happened at Huayan Tower today?"

Huayan Tower? As Bai Xiaosheng mentioned it, the monk also remembered. However, over the years, he had traveled far and wide looking for his wife, and he had seen many such incidents, so he did not pay much attention. He did not expect that the little nun from Hengshan was his daughter.

"Damn, you, Tian Boguang..." Bu Jie was furious and slapped the solid wooden table, breaking it. Lin Heng was startled and quickly pulled the monk, "Master, Master, Yilin is fine now. She was saved by Linghuchong from the Huashan Sect. You should know that, and Tian Boguang is now your grand-disciple."

"That makes sense..." Bu Jie was stunned and recalled the incident at Huayan Tower. He stroked his chin and said, "Linghuchong is not bad. If the monk had known at the time, he would have saved him. Never mind, let's not talk about that. Since Yilin is fine, she must have gone to Liu's residence. Kid, let's go to Liu's residence immediately."

As he spoke, the monk started to leave, carrying Bai Xiaosheng like a koala. In this situation, even with his thick skin, Bai Xiaosheng could not bear it and quickly got down. He followed closely behind Bu Jie and said, "Master, I know your kung fu is strong. I am looking for you to ask for your help. Of course, I will not ask you to help for free. I know you are looking for your wife, and perhaps I know where she is."

"What did you say?" The monk was shocked again and turned to lift Bai Xiaosheng up. "Master, you don't have to do that."

"Ha ha... The monk is anxious, anxious..." Bu Jie laughed awkwardly and quickly put Bai Xiaosheng down, asking urgently, "You know my wife? Really, or not?"

"Master, I just have a clue. I cannot be sure if it is your wife." Bai Xiaosheng rolled his eyes and thought to himself, "Of course, I know, but I can't say it outright."

"Alright, as long as you tell me, I will help you." Bu Jie said without hesitation.

"Thank you, Master." Bai Xiaosheng was overjoyed and immediately said, "Master, you have been looking for your wife all these years. Have you thought about what is most important to her? If you know what is most important to her, you have a good chance of finding her."

"Yes, why didn't I think of that?" Bu Jie slapped his head and cursed himself for being stupid. He ignored Bai Xiaosheng and said to himself, "My wife? The most important thing to her is the nunnery, but I have been there, and she wasn't there. Then it must be me and Lin'er. Yes, Lin'er, she must be on Hengshan. Ha ha... The monk is really smart. I will go to Hengshan..."

As he spoke, the monk turned to leave. Bai Xiaosheng saw this and quickly hugged Bu Jie, "Master, your wife won't run away from Hengshan. There's no point in being anxious now. Let's go see your daughter first. She was just bullied by Tian Boguang..."

"Yes, yes, yes, you are right." Bu Jie stopped and turned back. Bai Xiaosheng breathed a sigh of relief. This monk was a bit simple-minded, and if he did not persuade him, he would be hard to control.

After walking for a while, they arrived at Liu's residence. Bu Jie stopped and turned to Bai Xiaosheng, "You said you needed my help. What is it?"

"I..." Bai Xiaosheng opened his mouth, but seeing the people coming and going, he quickly changed his words, "Master, let's talk about it after you see your daughter. My matter is simple. I just need you to save two people. Don't worry, they are not bad people."

"Ah, that's fine. Let's go see Lin'er." Bu Jie reached out and pulled Lin Heng into Liu's residence. At this time, with so many people coming and going, no one from Liu's residence stopped them. As soon as they entered, they saw a short man quickly moving on the roof of Liu's residence. His lightness skill was extremely strong, and he moved very fast, covering most of the residence in a blink, as if searching for something.

Seeing the short man, Bai Xiaosheng knew who it was—none other than Yu Canghai, whom he had almost defeated last time.

Seeing the short man enter a space, Bu Jie pulled Bai Xiaosheng and followed. Soon, they entered the flower hall. At this moment, Yu Canghai was secretly looking for the person who had caused trouble for the Qingcheng Sect. He had been focusing on a small hunchback, but when Bu Jie appeared, his attention shifted. There was no way to avoid it; Bu Jie's height was quite impressive, and his presence was overwhelming, making it impossible not to notice him.

"Senior..." Bai Xiaosheng was somewhat surprised. Seeing Lin Pingzhi walk over and looking at Yu Canghai, who was staring at him and Bu Jie, he quickly pulled Lin Pingzhi aside and whispered, "Don't say much. This master is the savior I have found. With him, we can definitely save your parents."

"Thank you, Senior." Lin Pingzhi was overjoyed and looked at Bu Jie with anticipation. Unfortunately, Bu Jie ignored him and searched among the Hengshan nuns, quickly spotting the little Yilin, his eyes brightening. However, before he could take a step, Yu Canghai walked over, and Liu Zhengfeng immediately followed, bowing and asking, "May I ask the name of this master?"
