It made his breathing extremely difficult!
What followed was a strong sense of dizziness, a sensation Xing Fengzi was all too familiar with.
He remembered feeling it when he first entered this narrow world.
Could it be?
"Hiss!" Xing Fengzi realized he’d slammed hard onto a solid ground; he couldn’t help but reach back to brace himself with his hand, which left him momentarily stunned.
Because his palm seemed to have touched something strange.
That touch felt like...
Grass?!
Where would there be grass in this narrow world?
Hold on!
Xing Fengzi forced his very uncomfortable eyes open and then he saw the scenery around him had changed drastically, as if he was no longer in the narrow world but instead in a place that looked somewhat familiar.
"This place is? The Back Hill of Longhe Temple!!" Xing Fengzi couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, "Am I... am I back? Did Daoist Fan Wu, directly bring me back?!"
Before he could stand up, he heard two other voices sounding from beside him.
"Ouch!"—He recognized it as Yun Jiuqing’s voice.
"Ahhh!!"—And that was Liu Feng’s voice.
Xing Fengzi quickly turned his head to look over there.
He saw that Yun Jiuqing and Liu Feng had also returned; they had managed to escape from the narrow world.
"Eh? We’re out?" The voice that followed belonged to Yun Jiuqing, who spoke with great surprise, "I knew it, I knew Daoist Priest Fan would have a way!"
"Ahh... huh?" Liu Feng, who was still caught in a terrified scream, also paused, realizing he seemed to have returned as well.
"I, I survived? I didn’t die? Hahaha!" Liu Feng was even more excited than Yun Jiuqing: "I lived, I didn’t die! Hahaha! Daoist Fan Wu is my savior, Daoist Fan—eh? Where’s Daoist Fan Wu?"
Liu Feng’s expression changed: "He didn’t, in order to save the three of us, choose to sacrifice himself, did he?"
After this sentence fell, he noticed that both Xing Fengzi and Yun Jiuqing were giving him a look that was rather odd.
Liu Feng awkwardly chuckled: "Sorry... I shouldn’t say such ominous things at this time."
Xing Fengzi shook his head: "It’s not that what you said is inauspicious, Mr. Liu, it’s that you still don’t understand Daoist Fan Wu well enough. Daoist Fan Wu, he couldn’t possibly run into trouble."
"How long are you going to squat there?" The voice of Fan Wu came from behind the three of them, resounding leisurely.
The three turned around in a hurry to look.
They saw Fan Wu, bare-chested, calmly sheathing the Demon-slaying Sword.
And watching the three of them with a serene gaze.
Liu Feng realized Xing Fengzi was right, he didn’t understand Daoist Fan Wu enough. How could such a person who could kill an Evil God die inexplicably in a narrow world? That would be utterly ridiculous!
Indeed, his own insight was far too shallow.
Liu Feng felt a small sense of shame.
And a bit of embarrassment.
After the three of them got up one by one, they followed Fan Wu back to the temple at Longhe Temple.
By now, the day was breaking.
Inside the temple, none of the monks who had been tied up had escaped.
Because... The people who had been locked in cages and freed by Fan Wujie were helping to keep an eye on these monks for Fan Wu and the others.
"Benefactor! It’s our benefactor!" One of them, a skinny, bony old man, saw Fan Wu and the others and urgently hailed in a hoarse voice, "Benefactors, you’ve finally come back! Last night a few monks tried to escape, but we caught them, with us here, they can’t escape!"
Another, a middle-aged man who had been imprisoned, also said, "Many thanks to all of you, our saviors, for saving our lives! If you hadn’t appeared in time, we might have fallen victim to the monks, captured to be slaughtered like pigs!"
"Yes! Yes! I was just coming to offer incense, then I asked those monks for a cup of tea, and the next thing I knew, I was knocked out and captured by them."
"Sigh, the world’s becoming more chaotic by the day. Such things would never happen decades ago, or at least not so brazenly!"
"Benefactors, great life-saving benefactors."
"Damn it, I get so angry looking at these monks, I wish I could slaughter each and every one of them."
"No, we would be no different from them if we did that."
"Better to turn them over to the authorities!"
"..."
The people who had been rescued were bustling with voices, almost all of them expressing gratitude to Fan Wu and cursing the monks.
Soon enough.
The sun rose.
The next day.
A large group escorted the tied-up monks to be delivered to the nearby Imperial Heaven Ministry. This unprecedented sight shocked a whole crowd of Imperial Heaven Ministry officials.
Moreover, these officials recognized that these monks appeared to be from Longhe Temple. How did these Longhe Temple monks get captured by a group of gaunt people?
