She subconsciously covered her mouth, not daring to believe what she saw.

The sound of water...

The person in the well seemed to be still struggling.

But there was a person standing by the well, watching the scene quietly, unmoved.

When that person saw him, Shen Zhishu was in a mess.

She didn't have time to hide, Dao Ran, who was standing by the well, looked over at her.

The moment their eyes met, there was not a trace of surprise in those clear eyes. Instead, there was a hint of smile, as if he was greeting her in a friendly manner.

This person must be sick.

Shen Zhishu took a half step back and subconsciously wanted to leave.

"Your Highness, you are in a very elegant mood. Are you visiting the cold palace at this time?"

Dao Ran took a step forward and walked towards her.

His clothes were white and soft, moving with his body, and his head was shining brightly, with a hint of coldness.

She just felt that he was staring at her and she couldn't move away.

"I'm just passing by, so I won't disturb you, Saint Monk."

There was no sound coming from the well, so it seemed that the palace maid had been drowned.

Shen Zhishu didn't want to cause trouble.

"What do you think I did just now, Madam Concubine?"

She didn't want to, but she saw the crime scene. Could she leave safely?

Dao Ran's voice was cold. Although he was smiling, his smile made Shen Zhishu feel nervous.

"No, I didn't see anything."

She shook her head calmly.

"I have never been to the cold palace tonight, let alone seen the holy monk."

If possible, just pretend nothing happened.

Shen Zhishu’s meaning is very clear, right?

"But the appearance of the virtuous concubine is truly stunning. How can I pretend that I have never seen you before? I really can't do that."

Dao Ran, however, did not intend to give up.

Shen Zhishu was secretly annoyed. What good would it do him if he had to meet her?

She looked at the man-eating well.

"Everyone in the palace is saying that the holy monk has profound Buddhist teachings and is here to enlighten the world, but I think the holy monk is quite different from those monks."

"So, when you saw someone jumping into a well just now, did you think it was me who did it? I am innocent. I didn't even touch the donor, and I don't know why she suddenly jumped into the well."

Dao Ran didn't answer her question and just continued talking to himself.

"In fact, it was that donor who asked me to meet him here tonight. I came specially to keep the appointment. When we met, the donor cried and said that she had committed serious sins and had no face to live. I persuaded her for a long time, but I still couldn't change her mind of committing suicide."

He felt sorry and remorseful.

The tone was extremely sincere.

But there was always a playful look on his face, and there was no trace of regret for the passing of life.

So he is full of lies and not a single word of truth.

Shen Zhishu muttered silently in his heart, despising this shameless man.

But she had to pretend to believe him.

"A holy monk would never lie. I believe what you say."

In order to leave safely, she could only pretend to be very sincere, recalling Xiaodie's expression of trust in him, and deliberately disguised herself.

"Why doesn't your Majesty think that I am talking nonsense? It's obvious that your Majesty thinks that I am an evil ghost."

"No……"

"Eyes can't lie. The way your majesty looks at me is full of disgust."

Shen Zhishu was about to deny it.

But he suddenly stopped smiling, his expression became as cold as if he had just crawled out of hell and was not yet accustomed to the worldly life. He was full of death.

Eyes really can't lie.

Shen Zhishu also saw the dangerous look in the eyes of the holy monk.

So were all those murders that Yan Chu mentioned really committed by him?

Today, she had extremely bad luck and nothing went well.

"Does the Concubine Xian know how the Buddha survived his second life?"

He changes the subject so quickly that people are caught off guard.

What second life, what does it have to do with her?

"Your Majesty is different from others. You don't want to hear the second part of such a wonderful story."

He seemed to be praising.

But the tone was clearly full of sarcasm.

Because it's fake.

"Because Your Majesty knows it's fake and knows that I'm talking nonsense, right?"

As soon as she finished her thought, Dao Ran spoke it out.

Now it was Shen Zhishu who was surprised.

Even if you can see that I hate you, how do you know what I'm thinking in my heart, and I'm not thinking about those things at the moment.

"What makes the holy monk holy? Are all the holy monks from Lingmiao Temple like you?"

Nothing is hidden.

Shen Zhishu simply stopped pretending.

But if he wanted to kill her to silence her, she would definitely find an opportunity to strike first.

So she pretended to be curious, approached him, and looked him over.

"Don't you think that my appearance is acceptable?"

Dao Ran sneered at himself after hearing this.

At this moment, he no longer looked like the little monk who once sold himself on the street to bury strangers.

How could he look like the holy monk who chants sutras and spreads Buddhism in the Hall of Ten Thousand Buddhas?

It's just a demon with a pretty face and fangs.

"generally."

It looks good, but not half as good as Yan Chu.

Besides, he was so ugly by nature that Shen Zhishu couldn't see anything attractive about him.

But I didn't expect Dao Ran to laugh softly after hearing this.

"Your Highness has such a stunning beauty, so naturally you don't care about anyone else. I think no matter who you look at, it's better to look at yourself."

"When I first saw you, I was also astonished. I thought I would have a chance to talk to you, but I failed to arouse your curiosity."

He looked very disappointed.

"What do you want to say? It's really late. I need to go back and rest. Since you know that I'm not interested in your affairs, can't we just pretend that what happened tonight never happened?"

Shen Zhishu was a little impatient.

"How can I do that? If I don't eat what is right before my mouth, how can I justify God's arrangement?"

He suddenly approached, and his clear eyes were gradually covered by darkness.

What, does he still eat people?

Shen Zhishu was stunned.

Before she could react, her waist was pinched, and the strange burning sensation made her immediately realize what the man meant.

The pair of cold hands instantly reached into her body, and she shivered with cold, but she was more afraid.

"let me go."

He is a monk.

How dare you?

How can you do such a shameless thing?

At that moment Shen Zhishu also lost her mind. When she picked up the things she had just found in the cold palace and was about to take action, her clothes suddenly fell apart. She couldn't stand firmly and was pushed hard by Dao Ran, knocking her to the wall.

The belt fell to the ground, the buttons of the inner garment were torn open, and the cold wind kept pouring into the body, constantly reminding Shen Zhishu that something terrible had just happened.

She fastened her clothes in a panic and put them on again.

When I looked at Dao Ran again, besides disgust, I felt more resentment.

How could there be such a shameless monk in the world?

He reached into her clothes and ripped them off so easily.
