"Our sect leader received a message from Zifalun Temple via carrier pigeon, informing him that our lay disciple Qin Chongz was seriously injured. He immediately ordered this old monk to come here at full speed."

"Brother Qin is righteous and a young hero!" Zhao Zhengyi sighed and glared at Li Xunhuan. "It's just a pity that the master arrived a step too late."

"Oh?" Master Xinmei's eyes flickered as he saw Li Xunhuan slumped in his chair, his pressure points sealed. He was immediately surprised. "Could it be that Li Xunhuan is...?"

"Master Xinmei!"

Chen Feng quickly stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and interrupted Master Xinmei's words. Some words, once spoken by certain people, can be difficult to undo.

"Nephew You," Master Xinmei said with a smile upon seeing Chen Feng, "what are you doing here?"

You Longsheng's father, the Venerable Canglong, and Master Xinhu had been friends for decades. Naturally, You Longsheng also knew several eminent monks of the Xin generation from Shaolin Temple.

"I couldn't be bothered with those business matters, so I followed my master and late father's example and traveled the martial world. When I heard about the Plum Blossom Bandit at Xingyun Manor, I rushed over," Chen Feng said.

"I deeply regret what happened to Brother Qin Chong. I only regret that I wasn't at the manor that night. If I had been there, I would have certainly protected Brother Qin Chong's safety." Chen Feng's words were full of regret.

Zhao Zhengyi: ...........

If I hadn't been there the whole time, I would have believed it. He couldn't see any regret in Chen Feng at all. Even when Qin Zhong was lying right next to him, he asked Xian'er what was wrong, which made Qin Sange's face turn ashen with anger.

"Amitabha!"

"The Plum Blossom Thief is infamous and not an easy opponent in the world of drug investigation. It was Qin Chong's fate to be killed by him." Master Xinmei sighed, then his expression hardened as he looked at Li Xunhuan. "But the top lay disciple of the new generation of Shaolin is not so easy to kill."

Li Xunhuan sighed and was about to speak when Chen Feng said, "Who is the Plum Blossom Bandit now? It's not even certain whether the Plum Blossom Bandit is dead or not."

"Oh? Then what's Li Xunhuan doing...?"

“Li Xunhuan only appeared at Lengxiang Xiaozhu that night,” Chen Feng said. “Besides, Miss Xian’er has already admitted that she was the one who invited Li Xunhuan to Lengxiang Xiaozhu and forgot about the ambush. That’s all.”

"Even for Li Tanhua, Miss Xian'er returned alone and even encountered danger."

At this point, Chen Feng, once again "speaking impartially," repeated what they had just said.

"Amitabha! So that young man might have avenged Qin Chong! What a sin!" Master Xinmei clasped his hands together, his face filled with remorse.

Chen Feng nodded. This was the true Master Xinmei.

In the original story, Li Xunhuan was immediately smeared, with the label of "Plum Blossom Bandit" clinging to him relentlessly.

As Li Xunhuan's friend, A Fei was naturally also a friend of the Plum Blossom Bandit, so his death was not a pity!

With Zhao Zhengyi, Long Xiaoyun, Tian Qi and others stirring things up, Qin Chong died, making it even harder for Master Xinmei to distinguish between the real and the fake.

Therefore, when faced with A Fei, who wanted to rescue the Plum Blossom Thief, Master Xinmei went all out and killed him without any mercy.

You must understand that monks are human too, and humans can be angry. He had traveled day and night to get here, and as the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. He had come to provide rescue, and naturally, he was disheartened to have made the trip in vain.

Upon seeing that the Plum Blossom Thief, who had severely injured his top lay disciple of Shaolin, was being rescued and even attempting to escape by force due to his superior martial arts skills, he was instantly enraged.

He beat Ah Fei to the point of near death, but ultimately spared his life because of his kind heart.

This led to Afei being rescued by Lin Xian'er, who took care of him day and night, and he successfully fell into her trap.

Okay, okay, but what do we do now? Afei wasn't beaten to his knees, will he fall into this trap again? Chen Feng smiled slightly, "Miss Lin Xian'er, you'd better try harder."

Upon hearing Master Xinmei's remorse, Zhao Zhengyi and the others were immediately anxious and hurriedly said, "However, we cannot rule out the possibility that he colluded with Li Xunhuan to fool the world. Therefore, although we cannot prove that Li Xunhuan is the Plum Blossom Thief, we also cannot prove that Li Xunhuan is not the Plum Blossom Thief!"

Zhao Zhengyi was incorruptible, Tian Qi was shrewd and resourceful, and Gongsun Moyun was renowned. The three of them were all famous figures in the martial arts world. When they spoke together, even Master Xinmei would find it difficult to refuse them.

He could only put his hands together and say, "In that case, let's take Li Xunhuan to Shaolin Temple and let Senior Brother Xinhu decide what to do."

Tian Qi's eyes flashed, and he immediately said, "I will go with the master."

Chen Feng smiled slightly: "Since that's the case, I think the Plum Blossom Thief incident has come to an end. I haven't seen Uncle Xinhu for a long time either. I'll go and pay my respects to him."

Tian Qi: What should I do if I suddenly don't really want to go anymore?

In Chen Feng's opinion, Master Xinmei truly lived up to his reputation as a high monk. In the original story, even though Tian Qi and others were convinced that Li Xunhuan was the Plum Blossom Bandit, and even though Master Xinmei was persuaded, he insisted on not killing Li Xunhuan because there was no evidence. Instead, he wanted to send him back to Shaolin and let Master Xinhu and Bai Xiaosheng make a judgment.

Keep in mind that he had just heard the devastating news and was in a state of extreme anger, yet he still made such a decision.

On his way back to Shaolin Temple, he did not seek revenge on Li Xunhuan. Later, when he was poisoned, he saved Li Xunhuan from Tian Qi, released his pressure points, and let himself die.

Chen Feng had no reason not to help such a highly respected Shaolin monk.

"Alas! I'm just destined to be a busybody!" Chen Feng sighed. "I'm just too soft-hearted; I can't bear to see good people suffer."

Chen Feng returned to his bedroom and gulped down two glasses of water.

Then Long Xiaoyun came to tell him that they would set off in half an hour.

"Half an hour later?" Chen Feng frowned slightly. "Aren't we leaving tomorrow?"

“Master Xinmei was in a hurry, saying that there were important matters at Shaolin Temple. This place is 1,500 li away from Shaolin Temple. The sooner we leave, the sooner we will arrive.”

"Is that so? Master Xinmei doesn't rest at all?" Chen Feng said.

"That's right! Master Xinmei is anxious, and so am I. I want my brother to clear his name every moment! Please take good care of my brother along the way, Brother You." Long Xiaoyun said sincerely, clasping his hands in a fist salute.

Chen Feng looked at Long Xiaoyun in front of him strangely, and couldn't help but find it amusing. He nodded emphatically: "Don't worry, Fourth Master Long, I will take good care of Li Xunhuan along the way."

"Master Long must know Li Tanhua's character well; he could never be the Plum Blossom Thief!"

“I’ve heard about the conflict between Master Tian, ​​Master Zhao, and Scholar Li. I know you can’t take sides, but don’t worry, I still have influence with Master Xinhu. I assure you, no matter how eloquent Master Tian is, I will definitely be able to clear Scholar Li’s name and restore your reputation as a great brother.”

Upon hearing this, Long Xiaoyun was stunned. A deep sense of regret flashed in his eyes. He wished he could slap himself. He gritted his teeth and said with difficulty, "Then I'll leave it to Brother You."

After exchanging a few casual words, Long Xiaoyun got up to take his leave. He never wanted to see You Longsheng again, not even once!

Chen Feng found it amusing. "Come and act with me, and I'll act with you properly."

"Duan Qian, Feng Wan, come here." Chen Feng beckoned.

"The owner of the village."

"Go and prepare a carriage. I'm not riding a horse this time; my butt is practically bouncing in two. I'll enjoy the pleasure of riding in a carriage," Chen Feng said. "By the way, I'll rest for a while. Call me in half an hour."

"Yes, owner."
