Chapter 172 A hero saves a beauty?

In the spring of March, the grass grows and orioles fly.

There was a cool breeze and under the setting sun, a figure was stretched very long.

A monk in white robes walked slowly on the official road.

"If we walk a little further, we should find people." Li Ming secretly estimated in his heart, "Oh, I thought it would be fun to travel around the world and ride a horse, but it turned out to be so boring."

But at this moment, it seemed as if God heard Li Ming's thoughts. A reflection of a weapon shot into Li Ming's eyes, followed by the sound of weapons colliding.

Li Ming raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, "Could this be a robbery?"

So I looked forward with interest.

"My little beauty! You can't run away... just surrender!"

"Let us brothers have some fun, and you, my dear lady, have some fun too!"

The faint shouting sound was getting closer. Li Ming looked far away and saw that there were indeed two groups of people chasing each other and coming here. The one leading was a girl wearing colorful clothes and with a charming face. At this moment, she looked up and saw Li Ming's eyes. Then she saw that he was dressed in white and had an extraordinary appearance. He did not look like an ordinary monk at all, so she hurriedly shouted.

"Young Master, please save me! These two rapists have evil intentions. Come and save me!"

She was obviously cornered and didn't consider anything, not even the thought that if Li Ming was really an ordinary monk, this action would be tantamount to harming him.

"Hehehe! No one will come to save you even if you scream your throat out!"

Two figures came out side by side, one tall and one short, one fat and one thin. One was tall but held a pair of Emei needles, while the other was short and thin, but held a five-ring broadsword, which looked a bit funny.

At this moment, both of them were staring at the woman in colorful clothes with lewd smiles on their faces.

The woman ran towards Li Ming very quickly. Her steps were light, and it was obvious that she had some martial arts skills. She was also holding a long sword, so it seemed that she was not completely powerless. She was just inferior to the two people behind her, otherwise she would not have had to flee all the way.

Li Ming thought to himself, "Hero saving the beauty? It's my turn to do such a clichéd thing?"

Li Ming naturally didn't reveal what he was thinking. Instead, he smiled and shouted loudly: "Don't worry, young lady. It's broad daylight and the world is clear. How can we allow thieves to commit such crimes!"

After he finished speaking, he pointed his toes and turned into a spinning white shadow. After two or three jumps, he stood in front of the woman.

"Little monk, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business! If you know what's best for you, get out of here right away. Otherwise..."

The tall man's face was fierce, his expression sinister and cruel: "This place is deserted, and there are two more corpses. Do you think anyone will take care of it?"

Li Ming nodded and said, "What you said is correct. This place is deserted and there are very few people coming and going. If there are two more corpses, who knows where the wolves and tigers will find them."

"Hehe, it seems you are a sensible person, get out of here!" the short man shouted.

"What I mean is that I will recite the 'Sutra of Rebirth' for you two later. I just hope that you two will soon ascend to paradise and avoid committing sins in your next life!"

"Hahaha!" The short man laughed in anger and shouted, "What a crazy monk! Today I will send you to the West to see the Buddha!"

Before he finished speaking, the two of them attacked together, one on the left and one on the right.

Although these two men were unremarkable, their combined attack showed a measured advance and retreat, seamless cooperation, and clearly demonstrated their impressive martial arts skills. Of course, this was only to the average person. Both were at the second level of the Acquired Realm, working together as brothers, they had devised a unique method of combined attack. Furthermore, they possessed good foresight and had avoided provoking any of the masters or larger sects, allowing them to roam freely in this area.

It’s a pity that they had a pair of eyes today. Just because Li Ming was young, he dared to attack him. It was destined that their ending would not be good.

Li Ming shook his head imperceptibly and stretched out his hand to grab it. His movements were as natural and casual as if he went to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife. However, he mobilized his internal strength in his palms, and his movements seemed slow but were actually fast. He easily grasped the five-ring broadsword in the short man's hand.

The short man was startled and tried to increase the strength in his hands, but he couldn't move at all. Instead, Li Ming pulled and easily moved his arm to block in front of himself. The tall man's face changed, but he hurriedly changed the direction of the Emei needle under such a rapidly changing situation, but it still pierced the short man's arm.

Immediately the short man let out a scream and could no longer hold the big knife in his hand tightly.

But the big knife did not fall to the ground. Instead, Li Ming gently picked it up and then slashed it casually without even looking at it. A flash of the knife passed by, and a bloody mark appeared on the necks of the two men.

Then Li Ming turned around and saw the woman holding up the sword, as if she was about to help. He smiled and said, "No hurry, let the blood flow for a while."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two heads slid to the ground very lightly, and the bodies of the two men were no longer able to support themselves and fell to the ground with a bang.

This whole process took only a few seconds. Before the woman could recover from the shock, she saw that the two Gao family tyrants who had been so ferocious just now had both died. She screamed in surprise, and the long sword in her hand fell down, with a frightened expression on her face.

Seeing this, Li Ming pretended to say "Amitabha", then turned his back to the girl and recited aloud in front of the corpse.

"The Sutra of Rebirth!"

The woman looked at Li Ming's back with her heart beating fast, and raised her sleeves.

But Li Ming immediately turned around, looked at her and asked, "What's wrong with you, lady donor?"

The woman's heart skipped a beat again, and she quickly lowered her sleeves to change the subject and asked, "Master, why did you only recite three words?"

Li Ming smiled and said, "I said before that I would recite the 'Sutra of Rebirth in the Pure Land' for them. Monks don't lie. They keep their promises. If I say I will recite, I will recite it. Haven't I already recited the 'Sutra of Rebirth in the Pure Land'?"

Even though the woman had witnessed Li Ming's superb martial arts, she couldn't help but roll her eyes after hearing this.

"So this is what the 'Sutra of Rebirth' means."

"Of course. Such a wicked villain is not worthy of my salvation. He will go to hell to be punished after his death. I, the Buddha, will not save the wicked." Li Ming said.

"Why do I hear that Buddhism talks about saving all living beings and becoming a Buddha instantly by putting down the butcher knife?" the woman asked again.

Li Ming shook his head slightly and said, "That's someone else's Buddha, not mine. If you do evil, you must bear the consequences. My willingness to save you depends on whether you have the heart to mend your ways. If you truly repent and develop compassion, the moment you become a Buddha, you don't need my salvation. This is the true meaning of laying down the butcher knife and becoming a Buddha instantly. But if you don't repent, I can't save you either. I can only send you to see the Buddha."

After hearing Li Ming's nonsense, the woman was speechless and couldn't say anything for a long time.

Then Li Ming didn't say much, but leaned over and searched the two people lying on the ground.

The woman seemed to have finally made up her mind, and she raised her sleeve and pressed the mechanism hard.

At this moment, a sigh sounded in her ears.
